  "account": "The Speaker of the SPRM, Abd Halim Halim, stated that there is no issue with the local government regulations being approved the day before the Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) was dissolved, as long as the government in power maintains its authority and does not violate the law or the Constitution. If the approval or the new rules were issued after the dissolution of DUN while the government was in a caretaker position, they would not have the same binding effect on the government that would be formed after the elections. Abd Halim made this statement when asked to comment on whether the SPRM would investigate allegations of the RM180,000 salary being paid to a PH MP a day before the dissolution of the Negeri Sembilan DUN on June 5th. However, this does not mean that the SPRM confirms the salary arrangement is free from any corruption or malpractice; instead, such an assessment could only be made based on the facts and reports received by the authority.",
