‘AES not suitable for Sabah roads’

Sabah and federal authorities should first ensure that
state roads are in good condition before indulging in
road-safety campaigns.

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah roads may not be suited for the expensive and controversial Automatic Enforcement System (AES) which the government is planning to install nationwide to reduce road accidents.

A Sabah MP pointed out that the poor infrastructure and conditions of roads in the east Malaysian state should be addressed first before the expensive AES project is implemented.

“It is pointless for the government to spend a huge sum of the taxpayers’ money to install such a sophisticated system, when in the first place it can’t even provide a good and safer road for the people to drive on,” said Kota Kinabalu MP Hiew King Cheu.

Muslihat Nazri larang guna ruang akhbar Parlimen – Rafizi

Tindakan Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri itu dan
pengurusan Parlimen menghadkan akses rakyat biasa
untuk ke Parlimen dan bersuara melalui sidang
media hanya akan merendahkan martabat dan
kedudukan Parlimen.

Tegas beliau, “tindakan Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri itu dan pengurusan Parlimen menghadkan akses rakyat biasa untuk ke Parlimen dan bersuara melalui sidang media hanya akan merendahkan martabat dan kedudukan Parlimen.
