Get ducks in a row before criticising Budget, CM told

GEORGE TOWN: Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has been told to look into his own backyard before criticising Budget 2013.

Penang Wanita MCA chief Tan Cheng Liang said Lim should take a look at his own state first.

"It appears to be the norm for Pakatan Rakyat to criticise everything that Barisan Nasional does, despite the fact that our actions have helped benefit many Malaysians.

"Budget 2013 has been roundly praised by the public and stakeholders alike for encompassing all levels of society, including the middle income group, and addressing the concerns of the public such as housing and security, education and health," she said in a statement yesterday.

Tan said that while the Barisan Federal Government gave aid to all Malaysians, the Penang Government only chose to give aid to registered voters in Penang.

Lim had, on Friday, questioned how the RM30bil in expenditures would benefit the people directly.

At a function in Butterworth yesterday, he said that the Penang Government was disappointed that Budget 2013 did not have anything specific for Penang.

Lim claimed that there seemed to be no love shown towards Penangites in the Budget although Penang ratepayers contributed among the highest in income taxes of about RM3bil to RM4bil a year.
