‘PR no match for BN’

February 25, 2012

ASAJAYA: Pakatan Rakyat (PR) is no match for Barisan Nasional (BN) when it comes to looking after the welfare of the people, said Assistant Minister of Youth Development Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah.

He said the disbursement of the flood relief aid was yet another effort of the BN to help those affected by the flood.

“Unlike the opposition who can only talk, the BN delivers,” Abdul Karim said.

He was speaking at a flood relief aid presentation ceremony to 279 families at Asajaya Sports Complex, here yesterday.

The families were affected by last December’s flood.

In view of this, Abdul Karim advised the people to be wise in choosing the government to continue receiving welfare assistance and development.

To the recipients, he advised them to spend the money wisely.

Among those present were Samarahan Resident Ismail Hanis, Asajaya district officer Rubiah Wang and Temenggong Samarahan Chik Bujang.

Later, on a different note, Abdul Karim advised youths to draw the line when it comes to their social habits to avoid getting infected with sex-related diseases.

Free sex, he said could cause youths to be infected with sexually transmitted infection (STI) like syphilis and gonorrhea, and worst even with HIV or Aids, which could lead to death.
