The state government of Perlis hopes for a higher allocation from the federal government following the announcement by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to provide additional funding for states compared to last year. The Chief Minister, Mohd Shukri Ramli, stated that this hope is due to Perlis being a state bordering Thailand and requiring sufficient funding. He also expressed the state government's openness to continue the existing cooperation with the federal government. "Thank you to the Prime Minister for increasing the allocation for states, and we hope that Perlis, being a border state with Thailand, will receive more funding," he said after the Launching Ceremony of Op Selamat 22 Hari Raya Aidilfitri 2024 at the BHP Ulu Pauh Petrol Station, here, yesterday.
ARAU: Kerajaan negeri mengharapkan peruntukan lebih daripada kerajaan Persekutuan susulan pengumuman Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim bagi menyalurkan tambahan peruntukan buat negeri-negeri berbanding tahun lalu.
Beliau berkata, kerajaan negeri juga sememangnya terbuka untuk meneruskan kerjasama baik sedia ada yang terjalin bersama kerajaan Persekutuan pada ketika ini. Utusan Malaysia pada Jumaat lalu melaporkan kerajaan Persekutuan bersetuju menambah baik peruntukan pemberian serta sokongan kepada negeri-negeri sekitar RM8.9 bilion pada tahun ini membabitkan penambahan RM600 juta berbanding tahun lalu.
Dalam perkembangan berlainan, Mohd. Shukri berkata, buat masa ini, kerajaan negeri juga sedang dalam peringkat akhir bagi menanti kelulusan daripada kerajaan Persekutuan untuk mendapatkan peruntukan dalam mengatasi isu paip air bocor dan uzur sekitar Perlis.
