Underworld Behind Sand Theft, Vice And Illegal Gambling, Claims Khir

KUALA LUMPUR, July 29 (Bernama) -- An underworld movement is behind sand theft, vice and illegal gambling activities in Selangor, claims former Selangor menteri besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohammad Khir Toyo.
Khir further claimed it was this group that helped certain candidates win in the last general election so that it could continue with its activities unhindered.
He said, when he was menteri besar, only 700 licences were approved to operate gambling outlets, cyber cafes and spas but according to National Security Council statistics, Selangor was now estimated to have over 4,000 such outlets that were operating illegally.
"If we were to look at the front pages of newspapers today...it seems there is a link between politicians and the underworld...," said Khir in commenting on the front page headline in Utusan Malaysia reading "Kongsi gelap taja YB" (Underworld being sponsored by elected representatives).
Khir told this reporters after launching Yayasan Bakti Khidmat Masyarakat Malaysia's charity smart card "U Pay", here Wednesday.
He also alleged that illegal massage parlours were not only operating in urban areas but in the rurals as well.
"Not only in Puchong, but even in places like Sabak Bernam, Sungai Besar and Sekinchan. I am not sure if the people in Sungai Besar are always having body aches," he said,.
Khir also questioned why revenue from sand sales in Selangor only amounted to RM4 million when the government under his leadership had projected an annual turnover of RM200 million for the commodity.
He added that he was raising these issues to reprimand the current government so that it would rectify weaknesses and not because he was jealous.
Besides all these, Khir was also of the opinion that Selangor would become bankrupt if its efforts to attract investments continued to fail.
He added that the current government only managed to attract RM4 billion in investments last year whereas when he was menteri besar, the state managed to bring in RM11.8 billion in investments.
Federal Police CID director Datuk Mohd Bakri Zinin, when contacted by Bernama about the allegations, said anyone with information or evidence of such nature should come foward to assist police commence investigations.
"We cannot simply initiate investigations based on the claims of people. They must come forward and lodge a report and supply the information or evidence they have," he said.

tunku : since pakatan came to power in selangor no doubts all the illegal activities became some what legal.pubs can even operates in condominiums.don't talk about other things.this is what when you let gangsters govern you.the worst part is the state is not making enough money as all the activities are illegal,thus no tax whatsoever can be collected but the people who let the illegals activities operates becoming richer and richer.
khalid on the other hand, the so called corporate figure failed tremendously in bringing FDI to selangor, that is why he wants to use selangor's zakat money for the state development.

tunku,
I really solute the selangor people who dared to change from good straight to worst.
1.Maybe BN did not spoon them enough during 50 years in power.
2.The people of selangor seem to be easily conned by the so called pakatan MPs. 'pakatan'is from malay word 'pakat' (pakat - pakat) itself is not cohesive and has tendency to be in negative meanings.
3.If the people of selangor do not act now, selangor will be running by gansters and ahlong with their illegal activities and the state government will bangkrap sooner.
4.Those in MAIS have to be stubborn enough to resist any attempt by khalid and the gangs to steal baitulmal and zakat money. Please let the ruler knows if necessary.
5.To malays, do not put your hope on those monkeys like pkr and pas. These monkeys will jump from tree to tree to give excuses and run away when you guys in deep trouble. They only care about themselves only.
Arios..
