Pakatan has no unity or consistency, says Tee Yong

Sunday November 13, 2011

JOHOR BARU: Pakatan Rakyat lacks unity and consistency because its leaders have been making contradictory statements on many issues, said MCA Young Professionals Bureau chief Datuk Chua Tee Yong.

He gave as example when a DAP leader recently issued a statement about reducing the number of civil servants, it had been shot down by Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and PAS.

Chua also said PAS was going ahead with its plan to implement hudud law in Kelantan even though the matter was not in its Buku Jingga.

“Anwar’s stand on the issue changes according to the scenario that can help fulfil his political aims.

“The Opposition is also against the idea of a salary increase for MPs.

“However, in Selangor, a decision was made to increase the allowance of its assemblymen,” he told reporters after attending De Luxe Circle (M) Sdn Bhd’s veterinary health mark ceremony here on Friday.

Chua also pointed out that the Opposition had said it would be able to turn around the financial situation in the country. However, the Opposition failed to fulfill this when it took over some states.

“The performance in Kedah and Kelantan is not getting better, while Penang and Selangor are facing higher deficits than other states.”

In his speech, Chua, who is Deputy Agriculture and Agro-based Industries Minister, said since last month, 154 agro-based food industries had been certified with the Veterinary Health Mark (VHM), under the Veterinary Services Department.

“The ministry has always stressed on the importance of quality control. The VHM is a symbol of quality awarded to livestock product processing plants under the department’s Veterinary Inspection and Certification Programme,” he said.
