Muda slams govt for contradicting pledge to curb political patronage


PETALING JAYA: Muda has criticised the unity government for going against its pledge to curtail political patronage after a poster of Wanita PKR vice-chief Sangetha Jayakumar's appointment as a board member of the Port Klang Authority (PKA) had gone viral on social media.

Muda said the unity government led by Pakatan Harapan continues to indulge in the very practice that it once vehemently opposed, which is political appointments to government-run enterprises.
