the way BN spend money...KUALA LUMPUR, July 29 — Perak Pakatan Rakyat (PR) accused the Barisan Nasional (BN) state government today of recklessly emptying the state’s coffers, claiming Perak was headed towards financial ruin with a record budget deficit of RM104 million this year. Sitiawan assemblyman Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham slammed the BN state administration for its plan to table a RM80 million supplementary budget during the Perak assembly next Tuesday, saying the request for additional funds only proved the administration’s inefficiency. The former senior state executive councillor claimed that the BN administration, in its short rule under Mentri Besar Datuk Dr Zambry Abd Kadir, had ruined the hard work of its predecessors.
“PR’s 10-month rule saw Perak’s revenue touch a historic high with an additional RM103 million.
“Ten months of BN’s rule sees Perak facing its highest deficit in history, with RM104 Million in deficit.
“The request by the BN government for an additional RM80 million proves PR governs the state better than the BN,” he claimed in a statement today.
