MP SPEAKS | 'Hopefully, from now on we can spend more time to focus on ordinary Malaysians'.

| DAP congratulates the people of Malaysia for making May 9, 2018 a historic change of government for the first time in 61 years, making possible a New Malaysia. Transforming kleptocratic Malaysia into a clean nation and sharing the benefits with the peopleReducing RON 95 from RM2.20 to RM2.08 per litre

The cost rationalisation of hundreds of government projects, entered into by the previous government, saved RM24.65 billion without significantly affecting the scope of the works and quality of work done, and will benefit Malaysians over 10 years. This is apart from the cancellation of shady projects such as the RM9.4 billion multi-product and gas pipeline project, where 88 percent of the project cost or RM8.3 billion has been paid, even though only 13 percent of the work was completed.

Similarly, the government was able to source funding of RM24 billion for Tabung Haji and Felda, to rescue these two institutions that suffered huge losses as a result of gross cheating and financial mismanagement. Similarly, funding for Chinese and Tamil schools is racialised against the DAP with no mention of the increased funding for religious schools.

Hopefully, from now on we can spend more time to focus on ordinary Malaysians, and not so much on mega projects or past financial scandals.
