Menteri Besar Mohamed Azmin Ali says Putrajaya violated the sanctity and spirit of the water agreement when it demanded for free the land where the water pipes was located. – The Malaysian Insider pic, March 10, 2015.
The Selangor water deal tanked because Putrajaya wanted for free the land where the water pipes was located, Menteri Besar Mohamed Azmin Ali said today.
He said the land was not part of the agreement signed between the state government and the Barisan Nasional federal government on September 12, 2014.
The 26,000km of pipes were among the assets listed in the agreement.
"The failure to continue with the master agreement was due to the federal government's refusal to respect the main agreement signed last September.
"They want the land for free, the land does not belong to them. What was stated in the agreement and agreed upon by both sides was to handover the assets owned by the concessionaires.
"If we agreed to that, the state government will lose its sovereignty on the land," he said at a press conference at the Parliament lobby today.
