Then better make Sabah and Sarawak and Kelantan Federal Territories also

Federal Territories minister Tengku
Adnan Tengku Mansor says the move is not to extend authority over the state but
to help the Malays.
PUTRAJAYA: The idea to make Penang a
federal territory is to ensure equal development in the northern state, says a
Cabinet minister.
Federal Territories Minister Tengku
Adnan Tengku Mansor said it was not to extend authority over the state but to
help the Malays.
“We know what is happening in
Penang. They (the state government) do not care about the Malays,” he told
reporters after the Federal Territory ‘Khatam Al-Quran 2017’ programme here,
today.
He said if the matter can be
realised, the federal government would ensure that the development in the state
was enjoyed by all and not by only one race.
“We will administer (the state) at
the federal level just like in Labuan where we have invested over RM5 billion
since the date of takeover.
“I wonder why the DAP is jumping
over this issue. Maybe they are not administering Penang well,” he added.
Tengku Adnan said making Penang a
federal territory was just an idea at this stage and it required a proposal,
referendum and approval at the national level first before it could be
implemented.
The idea can be applied to Langkawi
(Kedah), Tioman (Pahang) and parts of Malacca, he said.
