Hisham: Selangor gov't more interested in own welfare
The upcoming pay hike for the Selangor lawmakers shows that its Pakatan Rakyat-led government is more interested in their own welfare than those of the people, said Umno vice-president Hishammuddin Hussein.
He said Pakatan Rakyat claims to fight for issues such as urban poverty and income disparity, both of which are issues of great concern of the people. However, he said the pay hike from Jan 1, 2014 onwards shows otherwise.
“People can judge the cost of living in Selangor for themselves and they have to live through it.
“Their move not only neglects the people’s hardships, but prioritises their own position. Even if they backtrack now, it will not be sincere but due to political considerations,” he said.
Hishammuddin was speaking at a press conference this morning, where he was asked to comment on the hike.
