Dewan Rakyat Focuses On KIGIP, Key National Issues

The Dewan Rakyat sitting today is set to address several significant issues, with a key focus on the strategic direction of the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park (KIGIP) to enhance domestic investments.

According to the Order Paper on the Parliament’s portal, Datuk Muhammad Bakhtiar Wan Chik (PH-Balik Pulau) will raise a question during the Ministers’ Question Time, asking the Prime Minister how KIGIP will boost domestic investments in line with the Energy Transition Roadmap. He also seeks information on how the initiative will balance the needs of nearby areas, particularly addressing water supply issues in Seberang Perai Selatan.

In the same session, Datuk Rosol Wahid (PN-Hulu Terengganu) will inquire about the latest developments on a new indicator for measuring the cost of living at the district level, initiated in March 2024. He will also ask about the government programs implemented based on the findings of this new indicator.

During the oral question and answer session, Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal (Warisan-Semporna) will question the Home Minister on effective measures to resolve the issue of illegal immigrants in Sabah. Additionally, Datuk Abdul Khalib Abdullah (PN-Rompin) will seek clarification from the Finance Minister regarding the implementation of the Budi MADANI assistance for M40 and B40 diesel vehicle owners.

Following these discussions, the Dewan Rakyat will proceed with the debate on the motion for the Annual Report and Financial Statement of the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) for 2021 and 2022.
