I am now sitting in on the Full Board Meeting of the Selayang Local Council.
A Full Board Meeting is held once every month for council to evaluate the activities for the month as well as to review the reports of the sub committees.
I am most disappointed that only around 70% of the councillors have any opinions and are speaking-up. Are the rest of them so well briefed on what is happening and agreeing to whatever that is presented; or do they have no opinions whatsoever.
I do wonder sometimes (most of the times) about these silent councillors. Are they truly able to serve their communities? What messages are these councillor giving to the rakyat about what the Pakatan Rakyat government is doing. I feel that many of these councillors are indeed a disservice to Pakatan Rakyat.
We hear that at times the existing staff of the Councils are trying to frustrate the Pakatan Rakyat government. Here, it is an example that the PR appointed councillors themselves are frustrating the Pakatan Rakyat government.
Civil Society, please stand up and make your voices heard!
