Iswardy Morni. Sarawak political analyst
*Public Unconcerned with Proper Registration, But GPS Cronies Fear Property Exposure*
Sarawak Premier Johari Openg said that the information requested by PADU was too detailed to cause public concern. That is why the Sarawak government has requested that the registration of PADU in Sarawak be postponed.
Iswardy questioned Johari's statement that PADU only asked for 9 basic information, namely basic information of the individual, household, address, job, education, income, commitment, assistance and finally the certificate. Padu asks for individual bank acc no so that cash aid can be credited directly to the aid recipient's account.
The government aid scheme has also asked for the acc number of the recipient. If this is questioned by the Sarawak government, SarawakPay also requests the same information. Why does the Sarawak government agree with SarawakPay's actions but oppose PADU?
In addition, according to Iswardy, PADU data is more comprehensive to determine if the aid recipient is really eligible. All this time with the old government system and data. There are rich individuals who receive government subsidies, on the other hand, many poor people do not get help. Whatever the actions of the Sarawak government. PADU registration in Sarawak is still encouraging and iswardy urges the public to register with PADU in the remaining 3 days. The Sarawak government should not worry too much because the representative of the Sarawak government/GPS is in the ministry of economy. Hanifah Hajar Taib is the deputy minister of economy. But GPS's concern is actually exposing the unusually large number of poor people in Sarawak.
The public is not worried about registering properly, only GPS cronies are worried about their property information being exposed. Even though they are rich, they still want to enjoy government subsidies.
