The PKR elected representatives in Selangor have agreed to donate either RM1, 000 or 20% of their newly revised salary to an education fund for the poor.

Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said on Saturday that Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim was receptive to his idea.  

 

He added that he has yet to put forth the idea to elected representatives of PAS and DAP in the state.

Anwar said as the plan is tentative, the mechanics of the donation have yet to be worked out.

However it does appear as if the reps will be able to make their own choice over whether to contribute RM1,000 or 20% of their revised salary to the fund.

PKR has 14 assemblymen in Selangor.

On the salary increase of Penang's elected representatives, Anwar said the quantum was reasonable. 

 

He said this to reporters after the opening ceremony of Penang CAT Dialysis Centre in Balik Pulau.
