(Hrkh) - Dewan Rakyat kelmarin menjadi sedikit 'riuh' apabila diberitahu bahawa gaji Pengerusi Syabas Tan Sri Razali Ismail sejumlah RM5.1 juta setahun.

Perkara ini diungkap kembali oleh Ahli Parlimen Permatang Pauh Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim ketika membahaskan rang undang-undang perbekalan tambahan 2009 yang dalam masa yang sama menjawab soalan Ahli Parlimen Titiwangsa Dr. Lo' Lo' Ghazali berhubung gaji dan elaun pengurus atau pengarah GLC.

"Apa dan mengapa nak dirahsiakan gaji GLC ini? Gaji syarikat boleh dibuka. Oleh sebab itu seperti mana yang saya sebutkan tadi, keadaan di Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor bila tanggungan begitu bila sudah naikkan beban bagi rakyat, baru kita tahu rupa-rupanya pengurusnya RM5.1 juta.

"Itu basic belum lagi elaun-elaun tambahan. Ini keterlaluan kalau dibiarkan keadaan begitu," kata Anwar.

Sementara itu turut menarik perhatian ahli-ahli dewan ialah Zulkifli Noordin(KeADILan -Kulim Bandar Baharu) yang membuat pecahan kiraan gaji pengerusi syarikat air itu yang boleh dimanfaatkan oleh rakyat.

"Saya buat 'simple calculation' ini. Pada gaji RM5.1 juta setahun, bermakna gaji beliau RM425,000 sebulan. Satu hari, gaji dia RM14,166... Satu jam gaji dia RM1,770. Satu minit, dia dibayar RM29.51...

Kata Zulkifli gaji beliau itu boleh membayar gaji 34 Ahli Parlimen sebulan ataupun boleh membayar 425 anggota polis dengan gaji RM1,000 sebulan. "Bermakna lima unit FRU boleh ditanggung dengan gaji beliau... ataupun kalau bil air... RM100 sebulan, boleh membayar 4,250 rumah atau kalau bil air itu RM50, boleh bayar 8,500 sebulan," katanya yang menyebabkan ramai ahli parlimen ketawa dan cuba mencelah.

Ahamad Kuris pleads not guilty to corruption
By FLORENCE A. SAMY

KUALA LUMPUR: Former Semenyih assemblyman Datuk Ahamad Kuris Mohd Nor, who is also former head of the Hulu Langat Umno division, pleaded not guilty to four separate counts of corruption involving RM200,000 at the Sessions Courts here and in Ampang.

The charges were linked to a road construction tender, and were allegedly committed while he was the assemblyman and a Kajang Municipal Councillor.
He also claimed trial yesterday to three alternative charges of misusing money belonging to the Hulu Langat Umno division.

In Ampang, Ahamad Kuris, 52, was charged with attempting to obtain a cash bribe of RM170,000 from Ufuk Rata Sdn Bhd owner Azlan Ahmad Marshid as an inducement to obtain the tender for the construction of a 100ft entry-and-exit road at Taman Impian Ehsan, Balakong, Cheras.

On trial: Ahamad Kuris leaving the Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur with a family member yesterday.

He allegedly committed the offence at 11.53am on Feb 26, 2007 at the Ufuk Rata office in Jalan Cheras.

Ahamad Kuris also faced a second charge of obtaining cash totalling RM20,000 and a third involving RM5,000, on two separate occasions from Azlan as an inducement to help his company obtain the tender.

He allegedly committed the offences around 12.30pm on May 11, 2007 and around 12.30pm on Aug 17, 2007 respectively at the Hulu Langat Umno office at the Umno building in Kajang.

He also pleaded not guilty to two alternative charges of misusing RM20,000 and RM5,000 belonging to the Hulu Langat Umno division at the same times, dates and place while he was the division head.

Ampang Sessions Court judge Noradidah Ahmad fixed bail at RM35,000 and set March 12 for mention.

Later in the afternoon, Ahamad Kuris appeared at a Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur and pleaded not guilty to obtaining a RM5,000 bribe for a credit card payment from Azlan while being an assemblyman and a municipal councillor.

He also pleaded not guilty to an alternative charge of misusing RM5,000 belonging to the Hulu Langat Umno division while he was division head, to pay the same credit card at the same date and place.

Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court judge Rosbiahanin Arifin agreed to Abdul Razak’s request to transfer the case to the Ampang Sessions Court to be tried jointly with the other charges.
