KELANTAN Menteri Besar Mohd Nassuruddin Daud has given the assurance all assemblymen will receive equal allocations from the state government.

He said the PAS-led administration would treat all assemblymen fairly, including those from the opposition, as they were all elected by the people.

“Although we have different political ideologies, the elections are over. What remains now are assemblymen who represent the people,” he told a press conference to announce the state exco portfolios in Kota Baru today.

In the recent state elections, PAS and Bersatu swept 43 out of the 45 state seats contested. Pakatan Harapan’s Dr Hafidzah Mustakim and Barisan Nasional’s Mohd Syahbuddin Hashim won the remaining two seats of Kota Lama and Galas respectively.

In another development, Nassuruddin said the Kelantan government would strengthen relations with the federal government in order to meet the people’s needs and welfare, particularly in addressing water issues.

He said the state government was also expected to pay a courtesy call on Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim soon.

In addition, it would also work towards improving strategic relations with other countries in the fields of education and economy.
