JOHOR BARU – Ikatan Demokratik Malaysia’s (Muda) offer to help clean houses and provide aid to flood victims in Muar was rejected because its application was incomplete, according to the Muar District Office.
In a statement issued here today, the district office said the Muar Disaster Operations Control Centre received an application from Muda on January 12, but no specific location nor names of the recipients were mentioned for the programme.
It said the application by Muda was to carry out its programme today and tomorrow.
Applicants are required to list the names of the recipients for their contributions for coordination purpose, it said, and that as of January 13, the contributions exceeded the needs of the victims.
Apart from the application by Muda, it said, the Muar District Office had also rejected applications for the same purpose by four others.
The statement was issued in response to a Facebook posting by Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman on January 13, questioning the action by the Muar District Office in rejecting the application by Muda. – Bernama, January 15, 2022
