KUALA LUMPUR, July 2 — The Dewan Rakyat sitting today will centre issues including the strategic direction of the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park (Kigip) in enhancing domestic investments.
According to the Order Paper on the Parliament’s portal, the Kigip question will be raised by Datuk Muhammad Bakhtiar Wan Chik (PH-Balik Pulau) to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim during Ministers’ Question Time.
Bakhtiar will ask how Kigip would boost domestic investments in line with the Energy Transition Roadmap while balancing issues in nearby areas such as water woes in Seberang Perai Selatan.
In the same session, Datuk Rosol Wahid (PN-Hulu Terengganu) will ask the Prime Minister about updates on the new method to measure living costs at the district level, which was initiated in March, and programmes that will be implemented based on findings from the new indicator.
During the oral question session, Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal (Warisan-Semporna) will ask the Home Affairs Minister about effective measures to resolve illegal immigration in Sabah, while Datuk Abdul Khalib Abdullah (PN-Rompin) will seek clarification from the Finance Minister on the Budi Madani aid for M40 and B40 diesel vehicle owners.
After the session, the Dewan Rakyat will continue debating the motion for the Annual Report and Financial Statement of the Human Rights Commission of Malaysia for 2021 and 2022.
The first readings for four bills are also listed on today’s order paper — the Drug Addicts (Treatment and Rehabilitation)(Amendment) Bill 2024, the Mufti (Federal Territories) Bill 2024, the Administration of Muslim Law (Federal Territories)(Amendment) Bill 2024, and the Syariah Court Civil Procedure (Federal Territories)(Amendment) Bill 2024.
