PENAMPANG : Supreme Council Member of Parti Kerjasama Anak Negeri, Dr Edwin Bosi, today demanded to know whether or not the Sabah Government has fulfilled their promise to give RM1000 financial aid to every family affected by the massive floods in Penampang last year.
He said, if he remembered it correctly, political leaders from the ruling party has told affected villagers that they will help them to get financial assistance from the State government.
He said expectation was very high after local officials from the local authority went around affected villagers taking the particulars of flood victims purportedly to document property losses.
However, Dr Edwin who is formerly the State Assemblyman for Kepayan lamented after more than a year, he is yet to see any sign of the financial assistance promised to flood victims.
"I am hearing many grouses from among local villagers in Penampang affected by the floods last year that they are still waiting for the RM1000 cash assistance promised to them.
"Was the RM1000 cash assistance promised to flood victims a fake promise?" asked Dr Edwin who is also the Party's Coordinator for the West Coast.
Given the recent flash floods affecting local villagers in Penampang, Dr Edwin demanded that the Sabah government double the financial assistance to RM2000 to mitigate the sufferings of flood victims.
Families desperately need assistance to buy essential items such as clothings, kitchen wares, and replace damaged furnitures and electrical appliances.#
