Lim Guan Eng dares Zahid, demands Penang Pakatan expel Umno and defer hikes

In a recent statement, DAP's Air Putih assemblyman, Lim Guan Eng, questioned why Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi dared the federal government to expel Umno but refrained from making a similar challenge to Penang's PH administration.

Lim criticized Umno's alleged duplicity in collaborating with the opposition while holding positions in Penang's state executive council, attributing this strategy to the coalition's retained majority in the state assembly.

He urged the Penang government to counter Umno's opportunistic behavior with policies focused on public welfare, advocating against hikes in service charges and tariffs to reduce Umno's influence.

GEORGE TOWN, Sept 14 — DAP’s Air Putih assemblyman Lim Guan Eng has questioned why Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi dared the Pakatan Harapan-led federal government to expel Umno from Putrajaya, but did not issue the same challenge to Penang’s PH administration.

Lim noted that Umno holds positions in the Penang state executive council, both city councils and state linked companies. He suggested Zahid lacked the courage to push Penang PH because the coalition would still retain a two thirds majority in the state assembly even without Umno’s two elected representatives.

He accused Umno of exploiting the Penang PH leadership’s hesitation over the party’s “duplicitous role” — working with opposition Perikatan Nasional while remaining part of the state government. Lim warned PH supporters were well aware that Umno and PAS would continue to pursue “extremist politics and divisive rhetoric” to win power at all costs.

Lim urged the Penang government to counter what he described as opportunistic and hypocritical behaviour by Umno and Barisan Nasional with people centric policies. He proposed deferring hikes in charges, quit rent, water tariffs and parking rates to close the door on Umno, PAS, MCA and Gerakan.

民主行动党亚依州议员林冠英在最近的一份声明中质疑，巫统主席阿末扎希为何敢于挑战联邦政府将巫统驱逐出境，却不敢对槟城希望联盟政府提出类似的挑战。

林冠英批评巫统在槟城州行政议会中担任要职的同时，却与反对派合作，这种做法涉嫌两面三刀，并将此策略归因于该联盟在州议会中保持多数席位。

他敦促槟城政府采取以公共福利为中心的政策来对抗巫统的机会主义行为，并主张反对提高服务费和关税，以削弱巫统的影响力。

乔治城，9月14日——民主行动党的艾普提区议员林冠英质疑巫统主席拿督斯里艾哈迈德扎希德哈米迪为什么敢于让希盟领导的联邦政府将巫统驱逐出布城，但没有向槟城希盟政府提出同样的挑战。

林冠英指出，巫统在槟城州行政议会、两个市议会以及州属企业中都占据席位。他认为，扎希缺乏勇气推动槟城希望联盟，因为即使没有巫统的两名当选代表，该联盟仍能在州议会中保持三分之二的多数席位。

他指责巫统利用槟城希望联盟领导层对该党“两面派”角色的犹豫不决——一方面与反对党国民联盟合作，另一方面又留在州政府中。林冠英警告希望联盟的支持者们非常清楚，巫统和伊斯兰党会继续奉行“极端政治和分裂言论”，不惜一切代价夺取政权。

林冠英敦促槟城州政府以民生政策应对巫统和国阵的投机取巧和虚伪行径。他提议推迟提高各项费用、地租、水费和停车费，以阻止巫统、伊斯兰党、马华公会和民政党继续从中作梗。
