They claim the mayor has gone against the decision of the licensing committee on allotment of Ramadan bazaar lots. iskandarputericitycouncil
Iskandar Puteri city councillors showing their discontent over the Taman Nusantara Ramadan bazaar issue.
A representative of the councillors, Mohd Azam Mektar, who is also a councillor of Gelang Patah Zone 9, said Adib’s move to overturn the decision of the MBIP Licensing Committee meeting, which he himself chaired on April 18, could be seen as an act of sabotage against MBIP councillors and the state government.
“This particular area was a replacement for the original suggested area along Jalan 2/1, which drew protests from shop traders in the vicinity who said the bazaar activity would disrupt their business,” he said after the MBIP full board meeting here today. Following this, councillors from the affected zone took the initiative to discuss the matter with the mayor, who agreed to grant only 30 licences, despite the 100 agreed earlier in the April 18 licensing committee meeting.
