Will Penang get special treatment in Budget 2020, Umno man asks Guan Eng
A former Umno assemblyperson queried Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng if Penang will be given better allocations in the upcoming Budget 2020.
Former Pulau Betong assemblyperson Muhammad Farid Saad said Lim was Penang's former chief minister and now has power in Putrajaya.
"He used to demand much from the federal government (previously under BN rule), but now he is in a position to give whatever he demanded before," he told Malaysiakini.
