Dear Lim Guan Eng


I REFER to your reply in Dewan Rakyat recently where you told an opposition lawmaker that the government does not intend to impose windfall tax on financial institutions in the country.

At a time when you frequently complain that your government is struggling to cope with the huge debts left by the previous regime, it is indeed surprising (and to some even utterly disappointing) that you should spare the very industry that has hardly done anything to ease the burden of the rakyat especially of those in the B40 group.
