曝光了：商联会主席是武吉巴督居民委员会主席，也是人民协会会员
根据日前报导，武吉巴督商联会在即将举行的武吉巴督单选区补选，全力支持人民行动党的候选人，穆仁理。 该商会在四月十七日当天，与穆仁理合办了一个嘉年华会，来利益区内的36O户低收入家庭。主办单位偍供了三十积分给一些选定的家庭，以让他们用这分数来换取干粮、免费理发、和寻找工作的协助。 武吉巴督商联会主席是王义鸿，他也是武吉巴督第五区居民委员会的主席。 居民委员会是一个属于人民协会管辖的基层组织。 著名的博客Andrew Loh, 曾提到，商联会主席同时是人民协会会员，也是居民委员会主席，是否有利益冲突的可能性？那穆仁理是否该拒绝与他的合作，对避免人民协会造成不必要的负面影响与争议？ 他也提问，＂候选国会议员是否该划清界线，以确保基层组织不被政治化，特别在这么一个非常政治性的补选时刻？＂ 他也补充了说，＂这不是让人协副会长陈振声，看起来像个大白痴？＂ 内阁部长兼人协副会长陈振声在不久前，反驳了人民协会的党派之说。 工人党主席林瑞莲举证，人协的干部在大选时期被动员，为人民行动党扶选，就证明了人民协会的偏私。 他在回复时说，＂人民协会是一个法定机构，它像其他的法定机构一样，执行着当权政府的方针。人协不允许任何的政治招募或活动，在它的地方与活动上出现。当然我们也不会为任何政党动员。＂ 陈先生反问林小姐，如果有任何人协犯错的证据，就通知他。他说，＂我向你保证，我会跟进。如果有的话，我将会是最后一个允许人协被政治化的人。＂ -- The…
