FEBRUARY 21 — While many characterise Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman’s Youth Armada bid with the recent blackshirt rally in Muar, Johor — it is interesting to see the vehicle that he has been using to promote his campaign in general.

While this is entirely in the right of Syed Saddiq to attend such events given that YPC is ostensibly under his Ministry, putting the organization under greater scrutiny raises more red flags that simply shouldn’t be there under the “reformer” youth minister. This is concerning development given that the announcement of YPC’s founding was mired in controversy to begin with.

During the launch of the National Youth Day 2019, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed said that aid-registered youth organisations would be able to apply for grants under the initiative — including youth organisations that did not receive any government assistance before. There has also been a worrying lack of transparency on part of KBS on how the money channelled to YPC will be done. How will the funds be allocated? Will there be a hierarchy of which kinds of organisations that will be given more attention by KBS?

Patronage politics have always been in the fabric of the Malaysian political scene. Grassroots fundings were always masked through extensive network of shell companies and organisations — a defining feature from the Umno era that all of us thought are over with the election of the Pakatan Harapan government.

Syed Saddiq needs to prove he is worth banking onLETTER | There has been a near-total abandonment of the reforms and improvements promised by him and Harapan from GE14. Perhaps the only thing worthy of him is his blood for the bloodbank since we're often shortage of blood supply? Good at apple polishing only. When he’s with Dr. M, he’ll make sure he stands or sits just next to him. All talk no action minister. Always trying to be in the lime light, but a bit quiet lately because of the great escape incident recently. Nik Nazmi is any time better than him. Oh look the young ciku who does things to get more likes on his social media platform but doesn’t know what to really do for the rakyat 🙄

Syed Saddiq's broken GE promises — Johan Arif | Malay MailFEBRUARY 20 — Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq wants to portray himself as the future of Malaysia, but has done little to prove that is something worth banking on, unless you base your metrics are what might benefit Syed Saddiq politically. To his credit, Syed Saddiq’s achievement of... Well if BN thugs stopped trying to silence him.... and intimidating him... And bullying him then... Yes... He might be able to focus on impt stuff. I think he places parliamentary things that affect all more than state. Ask Ur state govt to work on state. Not to forget the failure to meet the target set for the last SEA Games.
