When politicians choose ego over people
COMMENT | Perikatan Nasional has made its priorities clear – reject, refuse, and resist. Time and again, it refuses to negotiate on parliamentary allocations, leaving its own constituencies without the resources they deserve.
Whenever there is a chance to discuss and find common ground, PN chooses to walk away. But in this game of rejection, who suffers? It is not the politicians, but the rakyat in their constituencies, who are denied the resources they deserve.
PN says their decision is based on constitutional rights, moral values, and concerns over misuse of power. But by refusing to even sit at the table, they are putting politics above the well-being of the rakyat.
The purpose of parliamentary allocations is simple – to ensure every area gets fair development, no matter which party the MP belongs to. By rejecting discussions outright, PN is not punishing the government, but the people who voted for them.
