MBPJ schedule listed the public budget dialogue for 9-September 2016 but to date, no RA/RT had received notice of the meeting. As at 8-September 2016, no councilors have received the proposed draft budget yet.
MyPJ has sent an email on 5th September 2016 with an attachment to Mayor, Deputy Mayor, PR Director, Chief Financial Officer. listing out the information and format of the budget dialogue. Members of MyPJ have also forwarded the information to EXCO Ean Yong.
Last year, before the dialogue for the 2016 budget , we have published a similar press statement. Our requests were ignored without the courtesy of even an acknowledgment.
- 8-9-16 Rajendran contacted MBPJ PR department, was told that 9-9-16 discussion was meant for internal discussion. MBPJ Monthly schedule indicates that it is “Pembentangan Bajet NGO”. When Jabatan Perbendahaaran was asked, they refer us to the PR Department. We have confirmation that no councilors have received their draft budget yet.
