Councillors swearing in postponed again

The swearing-in ceremony of the Klang Municipal Councillors has been postponed again, for the 3rd time, to Nov 30, 2006.

The councillors were initially supposed to take office on Oct 19, 2006. However, it had to be postponed to Nov 8 as a result of the exposure of the "Istana Zakaria". After the intervention of the Sultan who wanted a full clean list of councillors, the ceremony was again put off to Nov 24.

Obviously, the Selangor state government has failed to produce a full clean list of councillors to be sworn in by this Friday and thus the postponement again.

This is another achievement of the first developed state in Malaysia as proclaimed by Dato Seri Dr Mohd Khir bin Toyo, Menteri Besar of Selangor.
