I’m grateful for PKA appointment, but it’s not even confirmed yet: Sangetha

PKR Women vice chief says she is not aware of the announcement and yet to receive confirmation

KUALA LUMPUR – PKR Women vice chief Sangetha Jayakumar has downplayed reports of her being appointed as a member of the Port Klang Authority’s (PKA) board of directors. 

Despite certain media outlets branding it as a “political appointment,” Sangetha said that she has not yet received any official confirmation regarding her new role. 

“I would be grateful for the appointment, but I have yet to receive any confirmation regarding the matter,” she briefly told Scoop when contacted today. 

“I was not even aware that there was an announcement.” 

This follows PKR Women chief Fadhlina Sidek, congratulating Sangetha on a poster shared via her Facebook profile earlier today. 

“Congratulations – this is another (sign of) appreciation for the PKR Women’s wing. May you serve with excellence,” Fadhlina mentioned in the posting. 

The recent appointment has faced scrutiny amid the ongoing criticism of political appointments by the federal government. 

The PKA is currently chaired by DAP’s former Seri Kembangan assemblyman, Ean Yong Hian Wah. 

Meanwhile, a well-placed source in PKA confirmed that Sangetha’s appointment had yet to be officially confirmed, as they were not informed on the matter. 

Critics have previously highlighted that such appointments contradict Pakatan Harapan’s past stance, emphasising the need to eliminate the practice of rewarding politicians and their associates with positions as a form of loyalty. 

Established on July 1, 1963, PKA is a statutory corporation mandated to assume control of Port Klang from the Malayan Railway Administration. 

This establishment aligns with the government’s policy to incorporate private sector management principles and discipline into government-controlled businesses nationwide. – January 7, 2024
