Today, the Penang state government officially uploads the information of their assets on our government website: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my\/index.php\/pusat-media\/pengumuman\/1203-pengisytiharan-aset-ketua-menteri-dan-ahli-ahli-mmk-negeri-pulau-pinang\">http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my\/<\/a>. Penang State EXCO members holding positions of public trust believe that the rakyat has a right to demand accountability from public officials.<\/p>\n<p>The public declaration of assets fulfils the personal obligation of PR leaders and political commitment of the Penang PR State government towards reinforcing leadership with integrity in line with the CAT principles of Competency, Accountability, Transparency principles.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nFor the first time in Malaysian history, this public declaration of assets was conducted not by the state government but by an independent audit company. I regret that this important piece of information was not published by certain media and blogs and hope that this can be corrected.<\/p>\n<p>The Penang state government has chosen the internationally renowned accounting firm, KPMG and its senior partner Chartered Accountant Ooi Kok Seng, for the verification exercise and to formulate the template and presented to the public. As an independent audit firm, KPMG is required to uphold the highest standards of professional standards ensuring that it complies with the principles of objectivity, independence and no conflict of interest before undertaking any task.<\/p>\n<p>I also express the hope that the media can publish the information of our assets in full. I regret that basic financial knowledge appears to be lacking when some print the value of assets without stating the loans taken out to purchase them. Or confuse the number of units in unit trusts(10,000 units) with value(RM10,000) as number and value of unit trusts are not equivalent. Most unit trusts are valued be between 30 cents to 50 cents per unit.<\/p>\n<p>The Penang state EXCO members wish to stress that they have no other sources of income except from their public allowances as public officials and ADUNs. Their allowances can be obtained from the Enakmen Anggota Pentadbiran dan Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri(Saraan) 1980.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;- BM Translation &#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nKenyataan Sidang Akhbar Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang Lim Guan Eng Di Komtar, George Town Pada 13 Januari 2012<\/p>\n<p>Semalam, Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang telah mengisytiharkan harta Ahli-ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri (EXCO). Hari ini, Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang dengan rasminya memuat naik maklumat tersebut ke dalam laman web kerajaan <a href=\"http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my\/index.php\/pusat-media\/pengumuman\/1203-pengisytiharan-aset-ketua-menteri-dan-ahli-ahli-mmk-negeri-pulau-pinang\">http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my<\/a>. Ahli-ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang yang memegang jawatan dan amanah awam sebulat suara bersetuju bahawa rakyat mempunyai hak untuk menuntut kebertanggungjawaban penjawat-penjawat awam.<\/p>\n<p>Pengisytiharan harta secara terbuka ini memenuhi amanah peribadi dan juga komitmen politik Kerajaan PR Pulau Pinang terhadap kepimpinan yang lebih bersih berdasarkan prinsip CAT (Cekap, Akauntabel, Telus).<\/p>\n<p>Untuk kali pertama dalam sejarah Malaysia, pengisytiharan harta secara terbuka telah dikendalikan bukan oleh kerajaan negeri tetapi oleh sebuah syarikat audit bebas. Saya berasa kesal bahawa maklumat yang penting ini tidak disiarkan oleh media massa dan blog-blog tertentu, dan berharap bahawa ini akan diperbetulkan. <\/p>\n<p>Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang telah memilih firma akauntan antarabangsa yang terkenal iaitu KPMG dan rakan kongsi kanannya Akauntan Bertauliah Ooi Kok Seng, untuk mengesahkan dan menetapkan templat yang akan dipaparkan kepada umum. Sebagai sebuah firma audit bebas, KPMG perlu mendukung standard profesional yang tertinggi untuk memastikan pematuhan kepada prinsip-prinsip keobjektifan, kebebasan dan tiada konflik kepentingan sebelum menjalankan apa-apa tugasan.<\/p>\n<p>Saya juga berharap bahawa pihak media boleh menyiarkan maklumat harta kami secara penuh. Saya berasa kesal melihat kekurangan pengetahuan asas dalam kewangan apabila nilai harta-harta disiarkan tanpa menyatakan pinjaman yang telah diambil untuk pembeliannya. Ada juga yang keliru di antara jumlah unit dalam unit amanah (10,000 unit) dengan nilai unit tersebut (RM10,000), kerana jumlah unit dengan nilainya adalah tidak sama. Secara purata, unit amanah mempunyai nilai antara 30 hingga 50 sen seunit.<\/p>\n<p>Ahli-ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang ingin menegaskan bahawa kami tidak mempunyai apa-apa sumber pendapatan yang lain selain daripada elaun awam sebagai penjawat awam dan wakil rakyat. Jumlah dan angka elaun ini boleh diperolehi daripada Enakmen Anggota Pentadbiran dan Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri(Saraan) 1980.<\/p>\n<p>Lim Guan Eng<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;-<br \/>\n\u69df\u5dde\u9996\u5e2d\u90e8\u957f\u6797\u51a0\u82f1\u4e8e2012\u5e741\u670813\u65e5\u5728\u4e54\u6cbb\u5e02\u53d1\u8868\u58f0\u660e\uff1a<\/p>\n<p>\u6628\u5929\uff0c\u69df\u5dde\u653f\u5e9c\u516c\u5f00\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u7684\u8d22\u4ea7\u3002\u4eca\u5929\uff0c\u69df\u5dde\u653f\u5e9c\u6b63\u5f0f\u5c06\u6709\u5173\u8d44\u6599\u4e0a\u8f7d\u81f3\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u5b98\u65b9\u7f51\u7ad9\uff1a<a href=\"http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my\/index.php\/pusat-media\/pengumuman\/1203-pengisytiharan-aset-ketua-menteri-dan-ahli-ahli-mmk-negeri-pulau-pinang\">http:\/\/www.penang.gov.my\/<\/a>\u3002 \u69df\u5dde\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u76f8\u4fe1\uff0c\u4eba\u6c11\u6709\u6743\u8981\u6c42\u516c\u804c\u4eba\u95ee\u8d23\u3001\u900f\u660e\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u516c\u5e03\u8d22\u4ea7\u7b26\u5408\u4e86\u6c11\u8054\u9886\u8896\u548c\u69df\u5dde\u6c11\u8054\u653f\u5e9c\u7684\u653f\u6cbb\u610f\u613f\uff0c\u4e5f\u4e0e\u9886\u8896\u575a\u6301\u5949\u884c\u80fd\u5e72\u3001\u516c\u4fe1\u53ca\u900f\u660e\u7684\u5ec9\u6b63\u539f\u5219\u76f8\u4e00\u81f4\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u8fd9\u662f\u9a6c\u6765\u897f\u4e9a\u5386\u53f2\u4e0a\uff0c\u8fd9\u9879\u516c\u5f00\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u8d22\u4ea7\u4e0d\u662f\u7531\u5dde\u653f\u5e9c\u8fdb\u884c\uff0c\u800c\u662f\u7531\u72ec\u7acb\u7684\u7a3d\u67e5\u516c\u53f8\u8fdb\u884c\u3002\u6211\u611f\u5230\u9057\u61be\uff0c\u8fd9\u9879\u6d88\u606f\u5e76\u6ca1\u6709\u88ab\u4e00\u4e9b\u5a92\u4f53\u4e0e\u90e8\u843d\u5ba2\u62a5\u9053\uff0c\u6211\u5e0c\u671b\u6709\u5173\u5a92\u4f53\u53ef\u4ee5\u6307\u6b63\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u69df\u5dde\u653f\u5e9c\u9009\u62e9\u4e86\u56fd\u9645\u8457\u540d\u7684\u4f1a\u8ba1\u516c\u53f8\u6bd5\u9a6c\u5a01\uff08KPMG\uff09\u53ca\u5176\u8d44\u6df1\u4f1a\u8ba1\u5e08\u9ec4\u56fd\u6210\uff0c \u8fdb\u884c\u67e5\u8bc1\u53ca\u8bbe\u8ba1\u516c\u5e03\u8d22\u4ea7\u7684\u683c\u5f0f\u5e76\u516c\u5e03\u7ed9\u516c\u4f17\u3002\u505a\u4e3a\u72ec\u7acb\u7684\u7a3d\u67e5\u516c\u53f8\uff0c\u6bd5\u9a6c\u5a01\u5728\u63a5\u4e0b\u4efb\u52a1\u524d\uff0c\u5fc5\u987b\u7ef4\u62a4\u5176\u6700\u9ad8\u7684\u4e13\u4e1a\u6c34\u5e73\uff0c\u4ee5\u786e\u4fdd\u5176\u5de5\u4f5c\u7b26\u5408\u76ee\u6807\u4e0e\u539f\u5219\uff0c\u4fdd\u6709\u72ec\u7acb\u6027\u53ca\u6ca1\u6709\u5229\u76ca\u51b2\u7a81\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u6211\u5e0c\u671b\u5a92\u4f53\u53ef\u4ee5\u5b8c\u6574\u520a\u767b\u6211\u4eec\u6240\u516c\u5e03\u7684\u8d44\u6599\u3002\u6211\u611f\u5230\u9057\u61be\uff0c\u4e00\u4e9b\u62a5\u9053\u770b\u6765\u7f3a\u4e4f\u8d22\u7ecf\u77e5\u8bc6\uff0c\u5728\u520a\u767b\u67d0\u4e9b\u8d44\u4ea7\u4ef7\u503c\u65f6\uff0c\u5bf9\u4e8e\u8d37\u6b3e\u989d\u53ea\u5b57\u4e0d\u63d0\u3002\u4e00\u4e9b\u62a5\u9053\u4e5f\u6df7\u6dc6\u4fe1\u6258\u57fa\u91d1\u7684\u5355\u4f4d\u4e0e\u5e02\u573a\u4ef7\u503c\uff0c\u5c061\u4e07\u4e2a\u5355\u4f4d\u7b49\u540c\u4e8e1\u4e07\u4ee4\u5409\uff0c\u5176\u5b9e\u4e24\u8005\u5b8c\u5168\u662f\u4e0d\u540c\u7b49\u7684\u3002\u5927\u591a\u6570\u7684\u4fe1\u6258\u57fa\u91d1\u5e02\u573a\u6bcf\u5355\u4f4d\u4ecb\u4e8e30\u4ed9\u81f350\u4ed9\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u69df\u5dde\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u8981\u5f3a\u8c03\uff0c\u9664\u4e86\u8eab\u4e3a\u516c\u804c\u4eba\u5458\u53ca\u5dde\u8bae\u5458\u7684\u6d25\u8d34\uff0c\u4ed6\u4eec\u6ca1\u6709\u5176\u5b83\u6536\u5165\u6765\u6e90\u3002\u800c\u4ed6\u4eec\u7684\u6d25\u8d34\u8be6\u60c5\u53ef\u4ee5\u4ece1980\u5e74\u884c\u653f\u8bae\u5458\u53ca\u5dde\u8bae\u5458\uff08\u6d25\u8d34\uff09\u6cd5\u4ee4\u4e2d\u53ef\u4ee5\u67e5\u77e5\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u6797\u51a0\u82f1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Press Conference Statement By Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng In Komtar, George Town On 13 January 2012.
