MCA mocks Pakatan’s achievements in Selangor
KLANG, July 25 — The MCA today poked fun at the Selangor Pakatan Rakyat government, claiming that its only glaring achievement over the past two years was in doubling the number of entertainment outlets in the state.Party president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek, in his speech during the Selangor MCA convention, accused the PR of failing to run the country’s wealthiest and most industrialised state efficiently, despite holding on to power for the past two years since the March 2008 general election.
“Its only clear achievement is in the number of entertainment outlets, which rose significantly since they took on the government.
“The outlets increased by at least 200 per cent. I believe that they have reached more than 6,000 entertainment outlets now, including cyber cafes and massage parlours,” he told a press conference after the function.
Dr Chua also listed down the PR’s many undelivered election promises and reminded the people that if the fledgling coalition were given the mandate to helm Putrajaya, they would only renege on more promises.
“In the last general election, a large number of voters chose the PR. This was because, at the time, the Barisan Nasional had certain problems and the people were not satisfied with us.
“But now that the PR has been given the opportunity to run four states for two and a half years, the people have had the chance to evaluate their performances. Are they more efficient than the BN administration of the past?
“They have made plenty of promises that they could have delivered on but today, people are still asking about them. The people are still waiting. If they cannot deliver their promises in running the state government, surely if they win the federal government, they would make more promises that they cannot deliver?” he said.
As an example, Dr Chua singled out the Selangor state government, presently run by Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim of the PKR.
“Look at Selangor. Prior to this, they promised that they would not interfere on the business deals but when they won the state, they created a company to handle the sand-mining activities in the state. This has created so many problems today.
“At the end of the day, if you look at it in terms of sand revenue, it has declined considerably. They promised annual returns of RM150 million but unfortunately, in 2008 and 2009, the returns failed to even achieve RM1 million,” he said.
Other unrealised promises made by the Selangor government, said Dr Chua, included the promise to introduce local government elections, the reduction of quit rent and a promise of monetary aid to pre-school students.
“They also criticised the Rukun Tetangga saying that the BN’s methods were inefficient. They promised to come up with a more effective system but until today, the people are still waiting,” he said.
Dr Chua added that the MCA would do its best in helping the BN regain control of Selangor by mobilising its members in the state.
“From today’s attendance at the convention, there is a clear sign that things are looking up. Last year, only 500 MCA delegates turned up for the convention but this year, 1,400 turned up.
“This is a good sign that the MCA in Selangor is ready to help the BN face the opposition in the next election,” he said.
Umno has been campaigning furiously to regain control of Selangor and even launched a roadshow on Friday for this purpose.
BN had lost the country’s wealthiest and most industrialised state and three others in a historic upset in Election 2008, where PR also captured 82 federal seats to deny the ruling coalition its customary two-third parliamentary majority. BN later took back Perak in an electoral putsch in February 2009 and has been working to unseat PR in Selangor.
