Wangsa Maju MP tells of ‘underground’ complaints against exco member


PETALING JAYA: PKR MP Wee Choo Keong supports the call by Gombak MP Azmin Ali for a reshuffle in the Selangor Government, saying he has received complaints about a certain state executive council member.

Wee said he had personally received grouses from Pakatan Rakyat members and the business community in Selangor claiming that the office of a certain council member was used as a meeting place for people connected with “underground business activities”.

“This is an open secret within the state’s administrative office. This is most unhealthy as it will give the impression that the exco members support the ‘underground business activities’,” the Wangsa Maju MP wrote in his blog (www.weechookeong.wordpress.com) yesterday.

He defended Azmin’s move to speak up at the state assembly as Azmin was conveying the public’s concern and protecting the well-being of the Pakatan government in Selangor.

Wee also described the response from senior state exco member Teresa Kok in asking for the removal of Azmin as the Backbenchers Club president as “bad attitude and sheer arrogance”.

“I would have expected Kok to have taken some time to examine the call by Azmin, and investigate whether there was any substance in what he had said instead of reacting like a typical greenhorn would do,” he said.

Wee said that in the interest of the party’s image as a whole, Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim should seriously consider reshuffling the state exco.
