Jangan heret penjawat awam dalam perbalahan politik, kata Kian Ming, KJ
Bekas timbalan menteri dan bekas menteri itu berkata pertikaian belanja kerajaan patut selesai dalaman, bukan melalui pertikaian politik terbuka.
Former Deputy Minister Ong Kian Ming and Khairy Jamaluddin have criticized the act of demoralizing civil servants during political disputes, stating it can tarnish their spirit and damage the reputation of public service. The issue arose following Deputy Prime Minister Zahid Hamidi's remarks on delayed payments to a contractor overseeing a rural development project.
Former Finance Minister Khairy Jamaluddin emphasized that the matter should be resolved internally, highlighting concerns about project funding exceeding approved budgets. Deputy Finance Minister Johan Mahmood Merican clarified that most of the year's funding for rural road projects had already been allocated, leading to payment constraints.
Both former ministers argued that the dispute should be addressed without politicizing, urging all parties involved to resolve the issue fairly, including the Department of Rural Development and the Ministry of Finance.
