Abdul Rashid rapped over remarks


Electoral Reform Committe chairman Tan Sri Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman.

PETALING JAYA: A Bersatu vice-president got a roasting from critics unhappy with his call that government contracts be given to division chiefs so that they have resources to win elections.

The remarks by Tan Sri Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman (pic) during the party annual general meeting on Sunday led to Bersih 2.0 questioning if the Pakatan Harapan government and Bersatu specifically are committed to electoral and institutional reforms.
