No reservation confirmed for Kedah MB's event, says minister

Kedah's Loud Mouth

Malaysiakini : The management of a venue in Selangor never confirmed the booking for an event featuring Kedah Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, said Agriculture and Food Security Minister Mohamad Sabu.

This is despite Sanusi’s claim that the event organiser had secured approval to use a hall at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (Maeps) but was subsequently revoked. Mohamad expressed bewilderment over Sanusi’s claim that his ministry was responsible for the move.

“I was baffled when the Kedah menteri besar said the hall rental had been revoked by the Agriculture and Food Security Ministry, whereas the Maeps’ hall management had yet to issue any letter of acceptance. A quotation had yet to be issued either,” he said on Facebook last night.

The minister also shared a screenshot showing a message that said Mardicorp was still preparing a quotation for the hall booking, and had yet to send any quotation or letter of acceptance to the organiser. The identity of the sender was not revealed.

MardiCorp is a government-linked company that controls Maeps. It is under the Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (Mardi), which is in turn an agency under Mohamad’s ministry.

Nuyiko : First they said federal gomen rejected their plan to build airport when they never submit any plan to Putrajaya. Then they said federal gomen revoked their application to use facility when the quotation wasn’t ready and acceptance letter never issued.

How to reject your plan when you never submit your plan? How to revoke your application when quotation is not ready? State election is coming, Sanusi is trying to tell voters that he is victim of kezalman kerajaan oersekutuan.

Sanusi and PAS didn’t win election to become state gomen, they became state gomeh via shereton move. He is doing this because he achieved nothing to improve Kedah development since became Kedah MB, and thus use race, religion and sympathy to raise vote.
