Ampang MP Rodziah Says She Has Been Barred From MyKhas Fund Portal

Ampang MP Rodziah Ismail says she can no longer access the government's MyKhas portal, affecting her ability to assist and support constituents through programmes and projects.

In a statement, Rodziah said she discovered she was unable to access the portal on July 29 and was puzzled by the government's decision, as she remained a PKR member and had never declared support for other parties.

"I have also never opposed any government policy or law in Parliament, in line with the mandate I received from Ampang voters in the 2022 general election," she said.

Rodziah is the third PKR MP to be barred from accessing MyKhas, after Subang MP Wong Chen and Petaling Jaya MP Lee Chean Chung.

All three attended the launch in May of Bersama, the new party started by former PKR leaders Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim had previously downplayed the matter, saying constituency funds could go "directly to the rakyat" without involving the MPs.

Rodziah said she had already given the PKR disciplinary board a written explanation about her presence at the Bersama launch, but the party had not responded to her.

She questioned why she was being barred from accessing funds for her constituency when Barisan Nasional MPs who have been outspoken against the government continued to receive funding.

The first-term MP said she would nonetheless continue doing her best to serve the people of Ampang.
