Kong: Umno Youth didn't object to AES outright


Transport Minister Kong Cho Ha said  the opposition should not put people's lives at risk for their own political interest over the enforcement of the Automatic Enforcement System (AES).

"Pakatan should not play politics with road safety. When accidents happen, they question why we don't do enough.

"But when we do something, which is proven, they also want to play politics. I think it's very unfair to responsible road users," he told reporters after leading the welcome reception for Ethiopian Airlines' maiden landing at KL International Airport yesterday.

Recently, Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said the opposition-ruled states of Penang, Kedah, Kelantan and Selangor had agreed to postpone the installation of AES cameras to nab motorists who speed and breach the red light.

Lim said prior approval of the authorities in the state governments was necessary for the installation of the AES cameras.

On Umno Youth wanting the government to defer implementation of the AES, Kong said: "I don't think they (Umno Youth) are objecting. They asked us to clarify some things. 

"I don't think anyone object outright, as even the Pakatan (leaders) want us to brief them on the system."

The most recent Umno Youth exco meeting had resolved to seek a deferment of the AES' implementation.
