Just read in the papers that the KL Mayor spent RM1.5 million on 11 overseas trips in the past year. The most extravagant was RM370k for trips to 3 countries, and this amount was excluding his allowance.
Most companies I know have a claims policy, that either you claim for your meals / expenditures or you claim your travelling allowance.
What is DBKL's policy? Can anyone clarify?
RM1.5 million can be used to clean up the Selayang market, which has been feeding recycled vegetables to the residents there for years.
RM1.5 million can pay the salaries of how many DBKL employees? Hello DBKL employees, your boss very good at spending the money, ah? What if it went to your increment? Or as part of your bonus? Would you like that?
I'm not saying our KL mayor should stay in KL and mop up after the weekly floods. There should be some kind of limit or audit on how much is spent on what and so on. How about asking him to travel on his own money, since he said he was invited? People invite, you can always say no. Say lah, I want to keep my job, if I spend too much money, people will notice.
How about some sense? Seems it's not so common anymore.
