ALOR STAR – The unity government will resolve the water supply woes in Kedah if it is given a mandate in the state election to be held later this year, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
“We know the water problem is not solved. How many (areas) in Kedah did not have sufficient water supply during Aidilfitri? Am I right?
“God willing, if this (state) government is under the unity government, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will solve the water problem because the prime minister is also the finance minister. If he forgets, I will remind him to help the people of Kedah,” he said when delivering a speech at the Kedah Madani gathering held at Dataran Stargate here last night.
Besides the prime minister, other cabinet ministers present at the event were Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil, Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub and Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail.
Meanwhile, Zahid, who is also rural and regional development minister, said his ministry would also assist the Kedah Regional Development Authority in its efforts to redevelop Kedah.
“The same goes for housing and land problems in Kedah, I know of these problems. God willing, Datuk Seri Anwar will give me the responsibility to look after the villages… look after the rural areas. I will never fail to carry out this trust.
“God willing, this ministry (rural and regional development ministry) will help the villagers whether they are Malays, Chinese, Indians, Siamese, or Orang Asli for the benefit of the state of Kedah and for the benefit of Malaysians,” he said.
Zahid meanwhile said the good collaboration between Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan must be maintained for the sake of political stability.
As BN chairman and Umno president, he also reiterated the stance of his party and coalition to continue to support the prime minister. – Bernama, April 29, 2023
