Be patient about pace of change, says Negri Sembilan MB
SEREMBAN, May 9 — Today marks the first year since the Pakatan Harapan government took over the Negri Sembilan administration after overthrowing the Barisan Nasional in the 14th general election, in May last year.
Speaking to reporters here on PH Negri Sembilan first anniversary, Aminuddin, who is also Sikamat assemblyman, said improving the weaknesses inherited from the previous administration would take time and the government’s promise of change would only be enjoyed once the state recovered. “We really want to see a change in the system. We want a transparent government with integrity... this is what we want to see, that’s why Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has been explaining how to become a government with integrity... this is what we need to look at,” he said.
Among others, he said, a RM17.3 million has been allocated for the development of Islamic affairs in the state, and there was no increase in quit rent and assessment tax within this five years; also financial assistance, ranging from RM500 to RM1,000 to students; monthly assistance to 2,490 disabled people, as well as single mothers.
