SUNGAI BULOH: Barisan Nasional treasurer-general Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein is on the campaign trail with Khairy Jamaluddin in Sungai Buloh, and both are taking a dig at Pakatan Harapan’s past record here.
They attended a community gathering, speaking on issues such as floods, education loans and tolls.
“The state government, state assemblyman and town councillor are all under Pakatan.
“Let me ask the residents, is it true that there are recurring floods here?” Khairy asked residents of Bukit Rahman Putra, one of the areas badly affected by the huge floods in December last year.
“This place always floods and who do they blame? The state government is under them.”
Hishammuddin, who is Defence Minister, also questioned Pakatan’s achievement when it formed the Federal Government for 22 months from May 2018.
“Did they abolish PTPTN and tolls?” Hishammuddin asked.
“Let Khairy win and I promise I will be here to assist him in fulfilling his manifesto pledges.”
Khairy is in a seven-cornered fight against PKR’s R. Ramanan, Perikatan Nasional’s Mohd Ghazali Md Hamin, Parti Rakyat Malaysia’s Ahmad Zuhri Faisal, Pejuang’s Mohd Akmal Mohd Yusoff and Independents Mohd Akmal Mohd Yusoff and Syed Razak Alsagoff.
