Peruntukan untuk Ahli Parlimen atau rakyat, soal Anwar

Ulasan itu timbul selepas seorang lagi Ahli Parlimen PKR dakwa akses portal MyKHAS disekat bagi urus peruntukan khas kawasan.

Peruntukan untuk Ahli Parlimen atau rakyat, soal Anwar

Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim reiterated that government funds for development should not be directed to individual MPs but rather to the public. "What matters is that the funds reach the people, be it MPs or the public," he stated at Masjid Ar-Rasyidin in Alor Gajah after performing Jumaat prayers, according to Bernama. This statement followed complaints by Ampang MP Rodziah Ismail, the latest elected PKR representative who cannot access the MyKHAS portal managing constituency-specific funds.

Petaling Jaya MP Lee Chean Chung and Subang MP Wong Chen also recently reported losing access to the relevant system. Anwar further explained that the practice of directing funds directly to the public is not new and has long been implemented. "This is a standard procedure known to all MPs, but now they are opposing it," he added.
