Selangor says it does not recognise Housing Ministry's PeKT appointments


THE Selangor government says it does not recognise the appointment of Penggerak Komuniti Tempatan (PeKT) or community activists as their roles are not clearly defined under any legal acts.

The statement, from Selangor local government, public transportation and new village development committee chairman Ng Sze Han, came in response to an announcement by Housing and Local Government Minister Zuraida Kamaruddin in September that 550 PeKT community activists would be appointed in Penang, Negri Sembilan and Selangor.
