1. PN's Shahidan Kassim has called on PM Anwar Ibrahim to personally respond to his demands for equal allocations to all MPs.
He claims that PN lawmakers in Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu did not receive their allocations, but other government MPs have received theirs.
2. Shahidan said this in response to Hulu Langat MP Sany Hamzan, who said that Shahidan was fishing for funds under Budget 2023.
Sany says, the recently-passed mini budget only included allocations for civil servants, and the funding for opposition MPs has not been decided upon.
3. Sany alleged that Shahidan had an ulterior motive behind his accusation that the government was being unfair to opposition MPs.
However Shahidan says he needed an explanation from the PM, not Sany.
"Saya menuntut hak kami sebagai Ahli Parlimen untuk diagihkan kepada rakyat."
4. "Jadi tidak wajar apabila duit kerajaan diedarkan secara tidak adil. Bersesuaian dengan manifesto PH iaitu memberi peruntukan sama rata untuk semua Ahli Parlimen."
PH's manifesto pledged to establish a "Constituency Development Fund" that can be utilised by all MPs.
5. The current administration has yet to announce its plans on funding for the 148 government MPs.
Budget 2023 will be tabled on February 24.
