PORT KLANG: Village elections will be introduced soon to allow villagers to decide who should be their village heads.
Mentri Besar, Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said Selangor would have local elections eventually when the time comes.
“We will have local elections at the end of the day, but we cannot carry this out without firming up the proper administration first,” he told reporters Thursday after visiting Pulau Ketam and the Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB) power generator plant in Sungai Lima here.
Khalid said the state government would decide the right time for village elections after making sure the election and administration systems go well.
Khalid added that he did not want to see any village head neglect problems in the their village because of elections.
“I don’t want to see rubbish not cleared on time, villagers who want to report death cases and children who want to go to school yet have no one to attend to them during the elections.
“This does not help,” he said.
He added that elections come and go, but the administration still has to go on.
