KUCHING: Federal ministers and deputy ministers from Sarawak
have been urged to carry out their duties in a “business unusual” manner.
Telang Usan assemblyman Dennis Ngau said as the country’s political
situation was not stable yet, the ministers ought to be more creative, have a
heightened sense of urgency, and work differently without breaking any law.
“For instance, in responding to requests from Sarawakian
elected representatives for development projects or on any matter where a
ministry could help, please cut the red tapes.
“Take the cue from how the late Tok Nan (former Chief
Minister Pehin Seri Adenan Satem) and our current Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi
Abang Johari Tun Openg who always responded to requests for projects almost
instantly,” he said.
He said it would be best for them to treat every day as if
it was their last time in office.
“With this kind of attitude or mindset, I am very sure their
detractors and nay-sayers in Sarawak would see the wisdom of GPS in accepting
Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyddin Yassin’s invitation to fill some posts in his
Cabinet.
“Many would realise that our moves were spot on and far
sighted, but if the federal government carries on as usual just like its
predecessors, many people especially the sceptics will become cynical and label
Perikatan Nasional as a back door government,” he said.
Confident that the new Cabinet would take the country along
the correct path, he urged all quarters, especially the opposition to accept
the new government and be supportive for the sake of the country.
“Muhyiddin’s
government must not be like Pakatan Harapan which continuously looked back and
blamed Barisan Nasional instead of just governing wisely and working as hard as
possible in honour of and appreciation for the mandate given to it by the
voters.
“That was why it was often accused of blaming others to
cover up their inability and weaknesses in running the country,” he said.
According to Dennis, while blaming others or pointing out
the faults or weaknesses of one’s opponent during an election campaign could be
justified, it could only go so far and had time limit.
“It should not go on and on, or repeated over and over like
a broken vinyl record. It gets old quickly and makes people fed up because they
want their leaders to just get things done no matter the obstacles and
hardship.
“No one wants to listen to endless excuses no matter how
reasonable or factual they are. After a while, the people just want the
government to concentrate on creating an excellent economic climate and keep
the country safe,” he said.
