Perak PAC should freeze Nizar's salary

The Perak PAC freeze the salaries of former and current MB was to make the worst of a bad situation. In fact, the PAC should freeze Nizar’s salary as Zambry is the legal Mentri Besar of Perak.

Ironically, the decision made by the Perak PAC is prone to errors and is unjustified as well as bias. It is reported that the Perak Public Accounts Committee froze the wages of former and current Mentris Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin and Datuk Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir with immediate effect.

The three advisors to Dr Zambry and state information chief Datuk Hamdi Abu Bakar were also ordered to vacate their offices at the state secretariat building.

The PAC, chaired by DAP’s Canning assemblyman Wong Kah Woh, was also to enquire into the appointments of the three advisers and the information chief with the status of EXCO by Dr Zambry.

Wong had said Dr Zambry, former Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin, State Legal Adviser Datuk Ahmad Kamal Md Shahid, State Secretary Datuk Dr Abdul Rahman Hashim, State Financial Officer Datuk Jamalludin Al Amini Ahmad, present and former excos would be called to the inquiry.
