Green Party: Excessive deforestation during his first term main reason not to re-appoint Amirudin as MB
ALTHOUGH the Green Party appears to be the only political entity that opposes the re-appointment of caretaker Selangor menteri besar (MB) Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari for a second term, many Selangorians have similarly expressed their unhappiness the latter’s performance.
While most Selangorians welcome development in the state, they are particularly concerned about over-development of their township, clearance of tropical rainforests which were meant to be forest reserves, and mega projects that they fear will become another white elephant in the state.
There have been numerous instances whereby the state government under Amirudin’s leadership has neglected grouses on the ground with regard to public amenities, prompting even his nemesis Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali to call the state ‘Selangor Darul Sampah’ during his political campaign in the Gombak parliamentary election in the last general election.
