GEORGE TOWN, Jan 28 — Two Penang Pakatan Harapan leaders have hit out at Perikatan Nasional’s disinformation accusing the DAP-led Penang government of sidelining the Malays through its housing policies.
He added that for low and medium-cost units, 35 per cent goes to Bumiputera, 50 per cent to the ethnic Chinese and others, and 15 per cent to the ethnic Indians. Jagdeep, the state exco for housing and local government, said those who manipulated the issue of housing Penang to score political points should first look at their facts.Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia’s Datuk Wan Saiful Wan Jan recently accused the state government of adopting a public housing scheme to change the demography of the island.
Meanwhile, Penang PKR information chief Amir H. Ghazali also slammed Wan Saiful for his baseless accusations, by pointing out that there are 200 traditional “kampungs” in Penang that still exist and maintain their traditional way of life even in the middle of the city. “The question now is what is the link between the bringing in of Singaporean housing experts with property ownership in Penang that Wan Saiful brought up?” he asked.
He said there is nothing wrong with Singapore’s HDB model being introduced in Malaysia, especially if it was to upgrade the quality of life of the public.
