Media Statement by Lau Weng San in Petaling Jaya on Saturday, 21^stMarch 2009:

Barisan Nasional leaders speaking out on local issues and projects – explain themselves first before questioning!

Lately, some Barisan Nasional local leaders and former elected representatives have been speaking out on various local issues and projects under the banners of certain unregistered organizations.

It is interesting to notice that they no longer speaking out on their political party, thus causing confusions among members of the public.

It is even more interesting when these Barisan Nasional leaders are even commenting and questioning the current administration openly on local issues or projects which was approved, endorsed and implemented during their time.

I welcome their concerns over these issues and projects but it would be even better if they can first come out to explain why such issues or projects could be approved, endorsed and implemented during their time, especially when these projects and issues are now causing distress to the people, leaving behind bundles of unresolved problems to the current administration, before they start questioning the current administration.

I, together with the people in distress, am eagerly waiting for their explanations.
