Zahid nafi KKDW belanja lebihi peruntukan dilulus

Ia selepas ketua setiausaha Perbendaharaan mendakwa KKDW secara konsisten berbelanja melebihi peruntukan diluluskan untuk projek jalan luar bandar sejak beberapa tahun ini.

Zahid nafi KKDW belanja lebihi peruntukan dilulus

Kementerian Kemajuan Desa dan Wilayah (KKDW) has confirmed that they will only spend funds within the approved budget, as stated by Menteri Kemajuan Desa dan Wilayah Zahid Hamidi. The ministry is not authorized to exceed the allocated amount. This means that no ministry can spend more than what is permitted. The overspending is indirectly answering the questions of the Chief Accountant of the Treasury.

The question is, what projects are being funded without visible budget planning? Where is the well-planned budget? Where can KKDW overspend beyond what is stated in the budget announcement or allocated funds? Yesterday, Zahid revealed that some contractors for rural projects are receiving government payments, leading to some operations being forced to shut down due to cash flow issues.

As a result, the Chief Accountant of the Treasury, Johan Mahmood Merican, reported that most of this year's rural road project budget has been spent, causing payment constraints. He stated that the allocation is fully expended, while KKDW has consistently overspent the annual budget for rural road projects for several years.
