The Perak Public Account Committee had met today as scheduled at 3.00 pm.
We have sat on 05.03.2009 where Dato Seri Nizar had attended and given his explanation and clarifications. The matter was adjourned to today to enable the other 4 persons, i.e. YB Zambry, YB Dato Dr Abdul Rahman, YB Dato Ahmad Kamal and YB Dato Jamaluddin Al-Amini, to attend and give their clarifications and explanation.
We are pleased on the professionalism shown by the State Finance Officer Dato’ Jamaluddin Al-Amini bin Hj Ahmad where he had attended today’s meeting and he had given his clarifications and confirmations on certain issues to help the Committee to address and deliberate on the two issues.
However, we regret to note that YB Dato Dr. Zambry and YB Dato Dr Abdul Rahman had again failed to attend and failed to response to my yesterday letter to them, where I have given them an opportunity to provide me a free date within 10 days time to accommodate their presence, provided the said notification reached us before the meeting started today.
As for YB Dato Ahmad Kamal, he had written a letter to me after my final letter notifying us that he will be available on 23.03.2009.
In view of the disrespectful act from Dr. Zambry and Dr Abdul Rahman, we have decided to proceed the meeting in their absence, and without hearing the evidence and explanation from them. Chances had been given, and we have been accommodatative enough to them. Enough is enough for us. We will not be hearing from them anymore. They have to accept the recommendations made by us eventually, and they have to be responsible for their absence.
At the same time, we have also inspected the offices of the three Adviors and Ketua Penerangan Negeri to determine whether the offices are being occupied and in operational. We have also obtained evidence and certain confirmations from the Pegawai Tadbir to Dato’ Chang Ko Youn and Dato’ Veerasingham, while no one was inside the room of YB Najmuddin and YB Hamdi.
We have adjourned the meeting at 4.50pm and we have decided to also call Dato’ Chang Ko Youn, Dato’ Veerasingham, YB Najmuddin and YB Hamdi to our next PAC meeting on 23.03.2009.
