Frustrated with the water woes in Selangor, an outspoken DAP leader has called for Khalid Ibrahim's head to roll.
In a Facebook posting, Jelutong MP Jeff Ooi said such a situation had not arose even when the state was administered by BN.
Ooi, who is now based in Penang, also owns a house in Subang Jaya, Selangor, which is constantly subjected to water supply cuts.
"I have been a ratepayer in Selangor for donkey years as I own a house in Subang Jaya.
"Now that I am based in my hometown in Penang, I only come home once in a fortnight, even just to sleep.
"And it's water-cut whenever I come back lately. Practicallymandi kerbau (haphazard shower) every time!
"A wakil rakyat (elected representative) must imagine the inconvenience Selangor folks face every day," he added.
Ooi also said that Khalid's residence was certainly not subjected to water rationing, and added: "Correct me if I am wrong."
"We never faced water rationing as protracted as this before, not even during BN days. A Pakatan (Rakyat) failure is a Pakatan failure.
"Khalid has overstayed our welcome. Sack that bugger," he added, without mincing his words.
The posting, which can only be viewed by those on his Facebook "friends" list, drew a slew of comments, with some agreeing and others criticising his harsh remarks.
'If Azmin is a better donkey, why not?'
To a question from user Christopher Timothy if PKR deputy president Azmin Ali should replace Khalid, Ooi replied: "If Azmin is a better donkey than Khalid, why not?"
"Slaughter him if he, too, fails. But you have another 54 Pakatan state assemblypersons to choose from, apart from Azmin. It's your call. You get the government you deserve! But we don't deserve water rationing like this in Selangor. It's supposed to be the richest and the most advanced state in Malaysia!" he added.
Responding to another user Eric Law who criticised Ooi, the MP said: "Don't be a troll. Be fair to the rakyat. I always call a spade a spade, a donkey a donkey. I own a holding in Selangor, I pay rates to MPSP, who are you to deny my rights as a common folk who pays Khalid's salary indirectly? My property is my right, it's none of your bloody business. You get the government you deserve and you are not complaining, ha? But the millions out there do."
Among others, Law had asked if Ooi would reprimand Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng in the same manner and accused the MP of blowing the water issue out or proportion.
He also called on Ooi to dispose his property in Subang Jaya.
In another comment, Law said: "Don't always compare Penang with Selangor. Khalid never approved RM6.3 billion tunnel (yes, Lim Guan Eng approved it with terms and conditions not yet agreed upon) but you never voiced out against this project or are you too scared to voice out, worried (that) you won't get (to) contest again come GE14."
In a statement today, Khalid called on residents to trust the state to solve the water crisis.
"We hope the rakyat will continue to be patient and trust the state in solving this problem, especially as we have already commenced early preparations to ensure fresh water supply for the upcoming dry season of five to six months," he added.
