PETALING JAYA: The switch from a four-seater sedan to a seven-seater luxury MPV as a minister’s official car is a waste of the people’s money, said a PKR leader.

Federal Territories PKR Youth chief P Prabakaran criticised the government for switching from the Proton Perdana 2.4L to the Toyota Vellfire 2.5L as the official ministerial car.

“The Perikatan National minister (finance minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz) has not only wasted the people’s money by purchasing these luxury cars, but it was also recently exposed that nearly RM1 million was spent on renovations and new furniture in the prime minister’s office.

“Plus, the renovation to the prime minister’s official home, Seri Perdana Complex, cost RM30 million,” he said in a statement today.
