PETALING JAYA: Nurul Izzah Anwar says the Government will take into account the concerns shown by the people regarding Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s new national car project.
“Am in full agreement with you and am sure your concerns will be duly noted by the powers that be,” the PKR vice-president said in a tweet on Monday (June 11).
She was responding to Twitter user Arif Kamarudzaman who asked about the rationality behind the plan of rebooting the national car instead of empowering existing public transportation to match those of developed nations.
“Please reconsider,” he tweeted.

“Am in full agreement with you and am sure your concerns will be duly noted by the powers that be,” the PKR vice-president said in a tweet on Monday (June 11).
She was responding to Twitter user Arif Kamarudzaman who asked about the rationality behind the plan of rebooting the national car instead of empowering existing public transportation to match those of developed nations.
“Please reconsider,” he tweeted.
Nurul Izzah had also retweeted a tweet by user TK Thiagarajah, who hoped the Government did not go down the national car path again.
“Let’s emphasise world class public transport! We really do not need a Proton 2!!!,” he said.
“Let’s emphasise world class public transport! We really do not need a Proton 2!!!,” he said.
First, he kowtim-ed HSR. Personally I suspect that it was arbitrarily done so, without international bilateral discussion, because of his well-known notorious dislike of cooperating with Sing.
The official reason given was to cut down unnecessary spending.
Then, in the immediate wake of that so-called prudent national austerity drive, he declared he wanted to build an island on Middle Rocks, as if that was necessary at this stage of the so-called austerity drive, and for what reason other than to frustrate Sing.
Explosively, he has just shown he hasn't changed in the slightest, declaring his old obsession with a national car when he had failed so abysmally with an earlier one, which sucked billions of the taxpayers' money.
National austerity drive my fCk-ing foot!
He also shows at the same he doesn't give two hoots about public transport, terminating MRT3 but in virtually the same breath talks about a new national car and a new island.
I am not too sure about Nurul's tweeted assurance that regarding the proposed national car, that complainants' concerns will be duly noted by the powers that be when our cabinet especially the new FM remains amazingly silent on subject matter like the very MCA he and his father condemned.
