KUALA LUMPUR - “What does he mean by money?
This was Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek’s response to former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s statement that Umno today was “all about the money”.
“If the money is for the sake of the people’s happiness, what’s the problem?” the Communications and Multimedia Minister told reporters after launching the Pasarnita @ Tom’s Bazaar programme in Publika this evening.
According to Ahmad Shabery, there was nothing wrong with acquiring money if it was meant for the country’s development.
“If Umno is talking about improving the people’s standard of living and on how to manage the economy, I think that has always been Umno’s responsibility.”
The Umno Supreme Council member said this following an interview in which Dr Mahathir claimed that Umno leaders today were only loyal due to the contracts they were receiving.
Shabery, however, refused to comment on this particular assertion. - Therakyatpost
