Court precedent backs govt’s right to announce allocations at any time

UMNO Supreme Council Member Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan has stressed that his statement regarding allocation announcements during by-elections was based on court rulings.

“I have been following by-elections for a long time and have attended almost all since 1990, except one in Batang Ai, Sarawak. There have been many cases like this since 1990. I know the history, especially the precedent set during Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah’s time regarding road project announcements during by-elections.

Recently, Bersih questioned remarks from Ahmad, who is also the Deputy Minister of Works, about the propriety of ministers or ministries organising programmes or announcing allocations during by-elections. He said such sentiments, including claims that ‘Malaysia will supposedly be taken over by the Chinese community’, were deliberately played by the opposition to garner voter support.
