IPOH, June 20 — It is not the Perak state government’s standard operating procedure to have referendums when deciding whether to rebuild markets, the mentri besar said today. Commenting on a so-called “referendum” this weekend initiated by Pasir Pinji assemblyman Howard Lee on whether to rebuild the Pasir Pinji market, Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu said he was not informed of the matter.Speaking to reporters here today after chairing the State Agricultural Development Corporation of Perak board of directors meeting, Ahmad Faizal said the “referendum” could be Lee’s way of engaging the people.

Pasir Pinji assemblyman Howard Lee was quoted by the daily as saying that the referendum was to obtain the people’s view on rebuilding the market, after five rounds of discussions with the traders to rebuild the market failed to reach an amicable solution.On a separate matter, Ahmad Faizal said he was still waiting for a date from Perak ruler Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah’s office for the swearing in of state executive councillors.

“I will get in touch with his office for a date,” he said, adding that there will not be any changes to the line-up.The current exco line up consists of five from DAP, three Amanah, two PKR and one from Bersatu.
