Best Ministry so far is Nga's Local Govt Development, says Wong
HAJAR UMIRA MD ZAKI TRANSLATING SINCHEWSHAH ALAM - Public Accounts Committee (PAC) Chairman Wong Kah Who says Local Government Development Ministry was the best performing ministry under the Unity Government so far.
Wong praised minister Nga Kor Ming stating that the latter had vowed to focus on cleaner public washrooms, well maintained roads, ensure functioning streetlights and drains clear of any blockages.
“These are amenities that people want.
“We can’t be expecting the minister to check every road or streetlights. The minister has decided on the direction of the policy. Next would be the implementation by the local government,’’ he said.
Wong, who is Taiping MP, said his fellow Perakian minister had even said that he did not mind to be referred as a “toilet minister”.
He added that if the washrooms were as clean as those in Japan or Singapore, people would see Malaysia in a different perspective.
Nga is Teluk Intan MP.
