KOTA BAHARU, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- The statement made by the Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Muhammad V, thanking the federal government, proves that Kelantan is not neglected by the federal government, as claimed by PAS leaders.
The Prime Minister's political secretary, Datuk Mohd Fatmi Che Salleh, said this could be seen with the setting up of the Federal Development Department (JPP) by the federal government in 1991 after PAS took over the state government's administration.
The objective of JPP is to coordinate and manage allocation provided by the federal government for implementation of development projects for the people's benefit, despite the state being under the opposition, he told reporters after visiting the Kota Utara district polling centre at Kampung Kota here today.
He refuted an allegation made by Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat that JPP was set up as an attempt by the federal government to create two governments in Kelantan.
The Kelantan Sultan, in his speech at the investiture ceremony in conjunction with his 43rd birthday celebration on Sunday, expressed his appreciation to the federal government for not marginalizing the state from the mainstream of development.
