GEORGE TOWN: A state PKR lawmaker kept silent instead of raising any doubts during the pre-council meeting last Nov 4 when Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng stated the state government's stance to oppose a Barisan Nasional motion.
Wong Hon Wai, who is Lim's political secretary, in saying this today added he was baffled over the action of Kebun Bunga assemblyman Cheah Kah Peng.
Wong said, in a statement, that the meeting was attended by 29 Pakatan Harapan (PH) assemblymen, with the exception of Penanti assemblyman Dr Norlela Ariffin who was on medical leave, to discuss matters related to the six-day state assembly sitting held from last Nov 27.
He was disappointed with Cheah and the PKR backbenchers as they did not raise any doubts when Lim stated the state government's stance on the BN motion on land reclamation issues last year.
He said Cheah had ample time to voice his views and concerns as the BN motion was set for the last day of the assembly sitting.
He added Cheah could have even raised his doubts during the debate on the motion or during informal discussions with PH colleagues.
Cheah and party colleague, Bukit Tambun assemblyman Ong Chin Wen, had their directorships in state GLCs terminated over the Chinese New Year period for having abstained, together with three other PKR assemblymen, from voting on the BN motion.
