TENG Chang Yeow (BN – Padang Kota), who is also the Chief Minister Dr Koh Tsu Koon’s political secretary, was ticked off by the Opposition at the State Assembly for his views which appeared critical of some aspects of state affairs.
Teng had earlier lamented about bureaucratic red tape in the heritage conservation policy, weaknesses in the state tourism products and called for the non-interference of politicians in the local government administration when Mohd Hamdan Abdul Rahman (PAS – Permatang Pasir) interjected: “Your views don’t seem to be in line with that of the government’s when you are the political secretary to the CM and the person closest to him.”
