Harapan’s Johor Bahru MP Akmal Nasir claimed in the Dewan Rakyat today that there were at least 50 GLC political appointees receiving an average salary of RM50,000 per month, not including allowances, which would cost the government RM25 million per year.
Responding to this, BN’s Pasir Salak MP Tajuddin Abdul Rahman revealed that his salary as Prasarana chairperson is "only RM8,000".
