Press Statement By Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng In Komtar, George Town On6.6.2015.<\/p>\n
The expected resignations of PAS representatives from the Penang state government will be immediately accepted without question because there is no impact whatsoever on the stability, continuity and crediblity of the Penang state government. The resignations of the PAS representatives from the Penang state government is inevitable following the PAS Muktamar’s decision\u200e to accept a motion by its Dewan Ulama to sever ties with DAP and yet remain in Pakatan Rakyat (PR) without debate. Even though no debate was permitted during the PAS Muktamar for such an important motion, the new PAS leadership is entitled to run its party in a manner it deems fit, whether in a democratic or an autocratic style.
\n<\/p>\n
I will not comment but leave it to PAS to answer the seeming self-contradictory position of PAS severing ties with DAP but yet remain in PR when PR comprises of the three parties of DAP, PKR and PAS. PR works on a consensus by all 3 parties and no one party can decide on PR\u2019s behalf. However PAS has the freedom and right to sever relations with the DAP.<\/p>\n
For this reason, following the passage of the motion without allowing for any debate to sever ties with DAP, PAS representatives have no choice but to resign from the Penang state government and its agencies as well as municipal councillors and Village Development & Security Committees(JKKKs). Whilst I enjoys friendly and good working relations with many PAS representatives, I understand they would have to resign for ethical and moral reasons. It would be politically untenable for them to remain in the Penang state government led by me in my capacity as DAP secretary-General, when PAS Muktamar has severed relations with DAP.<\/p>\n
The stability, continuity and credibility of the PR Penang state government will not be affected by the absence of PAS representatives in government. Both DAP and PKR will still enjoy its 2\/3 majority. With the present 30 out of 40 Penang state Assembly seats, without the PAS single ADUN, PR Penang will still have 29 seats and a comfortable 2\/3 majority.<\/p>\n
The Penang state government will continue its focus in transforming Penang into an international and intelligent city that is clean, green safe and healthy. Last year investment increased by 110% from RM3.9 billion in 2013 to RM8.2 billion in 2014. For the first 3 months of 2015, Penang attracted RM2.9 billion, the second highest in Malaysia. Tourism has also grown from strength to strength with passenger movements in the Penang International Airport growing by 10% last year.<\/p>\n
The strong economic performance of Penang under PR can be seen by the amount of direct and indirect taxes paid by Penang to the Federal government, increasing from RM4.1 billion in 2010 to RM6.3 billion in 2014. Despite being the 2nd smallest state in Malaysia, Penang is the third highest state taxpayer. The Penang state government continued to record annual budget surpluses since taking over in 2008 and have even instructed our local government authorities to absorb GST paid by the rakyat to lessen their financial burdens.<\/p>\n

==================================
\nKenyataan Akhbar oleh Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang Lim Guan Eng di Komtar, George Town Pada 6.6.2015.<\/p>\n
Perletakan Jawatan yang Dijangkakan Daripada Wakil PAS Dalam Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang Akan Segera Diterima Tanpa Soal Kerana Tiada Impak Terhadap Kestabilan, Kesinambungan Dan Kredibiliti Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang.<\/p>\n
Peletakan jawatan yang dijangkakan daripada wakil PAS dalam kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang akan diterima dengan segera tanpa soalan kerana tiada sebarang impak terhadap kestabilan, kesinambungan dan kredibiliti kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang. Peletakan jawatan wakil PAS dalam kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang tidak dapat dielakkan berikutan keputusan Muktamar PAS untuk menerima usul Dewan Ulama tanpa perbahasan bagi memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP dan meskipun kekal dalam Pakatan Rakyat (PR). Walaupun tiada perdebatan dibenarkan semasa Muktamar PAS bagi usul sedemikian penting, kepimpinan PAS yang baru berhak untuk mengemudi parti mereka dengan cara yang difikirkan wajar, sama ada melalui demokrasi atau autokrasi.<\/p>\n
Saya tidak akan mengulas tetapi menyerahkannya kepada PAS untuk menjawab kedudukan kontradik mereka apabila PAS memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP tetapi masih kekal dalam PR sedangkan PR terdiri daripada ketiga-tiga parti DAP, PKR dan PAS. PR berfungsi atas konsensus kesemua 3 parti dan tidak ada satu parti pun boleh membuat keputusan bagi pihak PR. Namun PAS mempunyai kebebasan dan hak untuk memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP.<\/p>\n
Atas sebab ini, berdasarkan usul yang diluluskan tanpa membenarkan sebarang perbahasan bagi memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP, wakil PAS tidak mempunyai pilihan lain kecuali meletakkan jawatan dalan kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang dan agensinya serta ahli majlis perbandaran dan Jawatankuasa Kemajuan dan Keselamatan Komuniti (JKKK). Walaupun saya menikmati hubungan kerja yang mesra dan baik dengan kebanyakan wakil PAS, saya faham bahawa mereka perlu meletakkan jawatan atas sebab-sebab etika dan moral. Adalah suatu yang tidak dapat dipertahankan dari segi politik bagi mereka untuk kekal dalam kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang yang diketuai oleh saya dalam kapasiti saya sebagai Setiausaha Agung DAP, apabila Muktamar PAS telah memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP.<\/p>\n
Kestabilan, kesinambungan dan kredibiliti kerajaan negeri PR Pulau Pinang tidak akan terjejas akibat ketiadaan wakil PAS dalam kerajaan. DAP dan PKR masih menikmati majoriti 2\/3. Dengan 30 daripada 40 kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri Pulau Pinang, tanpa ADUN tunggal PAS, PR Pulau Pinang masih mempunyai 29 kerusi dan majoriti selesa 2\/3.<\/p>\n
Kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang akan terus fokus dalam mengubah Pulau Pinang menjadi sebuah bandar antarabangsa dan pintar yang bersih, hijau selamat dan sihat. Pelaburan pada tahun lepas meningkat sebanyak 110% daripada RM3.9 bilion pada tahun 2013 kepada RM8.2 bilion pada tahun 2014. Bagi 3 bulan pertama tahun 2015, Pulau Pinang berjaya menarik RM2.9 bilion, yang kedua tertinggi di Malaysia. Pelancongan juga telah berkembang semakin kukuh dengan jumlah penumpang di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Pulau Pinang meningkat sebanyak 10% pada tahun lepas.<\/p>\n
Prestasi ekonomi Pulau Pinang yang kukuh di bawah PR dapat dilihat dengan jumlah cukai langsung dan tidak langsung yang dibayar oleh Pulau Pinang kepada kerajaan Persekutuan, meningkat daripada RM4.1 bilion pada tahun 2010 kepada RM6.3 bilion pada tahun 2014. Walaupun merupakan negeri kedua paling kecil di Malaysia, Pulau Pinang adalah pembayar cukai negeri ketiga tertinggi. Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang terus mencatatkan lebihan belanjawan tahunan sejak mengambil alih pada tahun 2008 dan telah pun mengarahkan pihak berkuasa kerajaan tempatan untuk menyerap GST yang dibayar oleh rakyat untuk mengurangkan beban kewangan mereka.<\/p>\n
