KISAH DIPERAK
IPOH: (The Star) - A state executive councillor said the Perak government was not aware that land lots at Kampung Tersusun Sungai Itek, Gopeng, were being allocated to the Gopeng Umno division and village chiefs.
Datuk Hamidah Osman, who denied that it was a policy of the state government to have a quota system when allocating land lots, said the government was only made aware of such matters when it was reported in the media last week.
The media reported that 10 out of 127 land lots of the proposed scheme were being allocated to committee members of the Gopeng Umno division.
It was also said another 10 lots each were allocated to the village chiefs of Kampung Sungai Itek, Kampung Pintu Padang and Kampung Jelintoh for their subjects.
The allegations by Teja assemblyman Chang Lih Kang, who is also state PKR vice-chairman, subsequently led to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) initiating an investigation into the matter.
Hamidah said Kampar district officer Ahmad Kamaruzzaman Hamzah had since apologised and admitted to his mistake of not checking with the state before coming up with a quota system.
”He should not have made such a decision on his own because it is not a policy of the state to have quota systems.
“Although the short-listed applicants were still subject to final vetting, it was nevertheless not a good decision and he will be called up to explain further about his actions, which could ultimately affect the good name of the state,” she said.
On another matter, Hamidah said the state would be launching a statewide exercise to scrutinise the names of successful land applicants of planned villages schemes.
“It has come to our attention that applications approved by the Barisan Nasional state government were switched to other names during Pakatan Rakyat’s administration.
“There may be hundreds of such instances throughout the state,” she claimed.
