Beri peruntukan sama rata untuk semua Ahli Parlimen, DAP gesa Anwar
Gobind Singh Deo juga gesa perdana menteri gubal undang-undang bagi jamin peruntukan seksama itu kekal bagi setiap Ahli Parlimen.
DAP chairman Gobind Singh Deo welcomed Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's announcement of an additional RM1 million allocation for all 222 parliamentary constituencies nationwide, but emphasized that the move does not yet address the core issue. While DAP commended the step, it stressed that the issue remains unresolved. The party urged Anwar to tackle this delay and take proactive measures by providing financial support to every parliamentary representative initially, followed by enacting legislation to guarantee equitable regional development funds for each MP.
The news comes after DAP called on Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to deliver on the Pakatan Harapan (PH) promise of equal funding for all MPs, as outlined in the party's electoral manifesto. The principle behind not withholding financial resources is to prevent disenfranchising voters based solely on their political leanings or preferences. Deo reiterated that DAP remains committed to fulfilling this pledge as stated in PH's manifesto.
