Derek Fernandez says the ministry is redundant and an inefficient use of taxpayers' funds. FMTNews KhalidSamad

Khalid Samad took over the Federal Territories Ministry from Tengku Adnan Mansor. A local council expert says the ministry is redundant.

That plan, he said, was gazetted by the new administration with 273 deviations from the draft without public consultation.“The launch of the draft KL Structure Plan 2040 is now questionable because the credibility of the KLCP 2020 is in doubt,” he told FMT. “In fact, the existence of this ministry with powers to override and instruct the KL mayor on specific matters actually interferes with the mayor’s ability to carry out his functions properly.”He said the best way to ensure checks and balances was not having an FT minister that can override the mayor but having a governance structure where no one person had too much power.

After the last GE, some of us already selectively woke-up, how pathetic is that ?

Economic Affairs Ministry also useless should convert to Escort Affairs Ministry

Inefficient use of tax payers money as been rampant since past Govt's.Redundant Govt HR in itself as been self defeating in reducing payroll cost incurred by Govt.Time to upscale productivity of Govt by effective n efficient manner.chedetofficial guanenglim IDEASMalaysia

bye. lepas ni tukar nama jadi menteri kampung baru. 🤣

If you said so there should be Ministry of environment and Ministry of energy respectively in order to be effective and efficient !

Probably, the ministry set-up & functions can be put under the Ministry of Housing & Local Government (KPKT). Both are dealing with similar issues in local governments 🤓🏠🏢🏭

Who is this Fernandez? We might as well cancel all ministries.

D sort of structural reform PH shud undertake & not allow public funds 2b wasted on a Ministry & a Cabinet Minister position.

😂😂😂sad for minister!

Yes! This is the most useless and inefficient Ministry and a total waste of public funds, especially with this Khalid Samad who proved he is just like his brother!
