KHALID ASKED SELANGOR FM TO LEAVE BUILDING

Tan Sri Khalid, the MB of Selangor, said his request that he be allowed to explain Selangor’s development agenda over Selangor FM radio was still not being responded to after two weeks."I would like to spend about one hour a week to be interviewed over the radio so that I can tell the rakyat what are my vision and programmes for Selangor are.“I also suggested to them to open the programme for the people of Selangor to participate."It's already two-and-a-half weeks; if they remain non-committal, I don't want them to stay in the Selangor (state sectariat) office (building). The Selangor FM office (is) there and then they call themselves Radio Selangor. "If they call themselves radio non-Selangor, then they can find (office) somewhere else, that's how I feel," Abdul Khalid said.

I don’t see why such a good move and mooted idea from the administrator of a state in having once a week interview, over the progress of the state for the benefits of the Rakyat is not welcomed by the Ministry of Information, which has the jurisdiction over Selangor FM. Just because he is from the other side of the fence (Pakatan Rakyat), the thought of giving one (an hour a week cast) looks sinful and not justified to our dearest Minister Ahmad Shabery. Whats the problem? Whats to be afraid of? Selangor FM in doing justification to its patron (the Information Ministry and to escape any abusing by TS Khalid) can have a pre-prepared interviewing list of questions. Whats the fuss then?

Its about time, some loggerheads at Federal administrations, start to learn, understand and embrace the concept of sharing for the benefits of the Rakyat. Afterall, Selangor FM should belongs to the Rakyat, for the Rakyat. Not to any single party and people of shallow minded interest.
