WE’VE EXPERTISE TO REVIEW MUIS

SIPITANG : We’re not hesitant to review any State Government agencies that are not performing or under performing if SAPP formed the next State Government including MUI (Majlis Ugama Islam Sabah), said Hj Amde Sidik during the visit of group of mualaf representing the Perstuan Mualaf Sipitang to SAPP’s office in Mesapol, Sipitang last night.

Amde Sidik is Deputy President of Sabah Progressive Party said we’ve local expertise in all fields including Islamic Religion no need to import them.

"The problem I noticed is the deployment of experts is not done based on merit but rather done arbitrarily or because of their connections, this can cause problem to some people who have expertise on specific fields, they can get frustrated in end they become under perform.

"The issue raised up by the mualaf group is about welfare assistants if available to them, perhaps they must have been comparing with others, for example, why others got and they did not, again issue of fairness of distribution of assistance.

"Sometime ago I commented on issue of how is Baitul Mal functioning is it or is not within the ambit of MUIS but so far no one responded not even MUIS," said Amde.

People do want to know, like where and how collections of Zakat Fitrah-tithes over the years have gone to. Nowadays people expect transparency, and nothing is wrong because Islam practices transparency to avoid suspicion. (SAPP Media)
