WITH campaigning entering a crucial phase, Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming has loaded his metaphorical gun with ammunition.
These were composed of no other than the pledges made by BN in the 2022 manifesto.
In a social media post, the DAP vice-chairman gave Johor voters a fiery reminder in the form of an elaborate infographic, displaying the many pledges made which were either partially fulfilled or never implemented.
Foremost among them was the promise of RM150 assistance for every primary and secondary school students from families earning between RM3,001 and RM7,000.
According to Nga, the aid was eventually limited only to students with disabilities , leaving the majority of eligible recipients out in the cold.

Another pledge under scrutiny was BN’s commitment to provide RM500 to all B40 university students in Johor. Nga claimed beneficiaries ultimately received only RM200, well below the amount promised in the manifesto.
He also highlighted welfare assistance, pointing to BN’s pledge to increase general welfare aid under the Social Welfare Department to RM500. Instead, he alleged that recipients under the Johor Kasih programme received only RM200.
The list goes on. But with all that shots fired, do not expect netizens from the opposition to allow it to go unchallenged.
“You don’t want to share the ones that PH failed to implement, right?” said @fauzimz.
“We don’t want DAP communists,” said @hairol_hassan.
“It is okay to fail as long as not DAP,” pointed out an adamant @Mattaiyub141552.
The photo comments are equally biting:
Interestingly, the friends of DAP have their weapons too:
Where politics is concerned, anyone could argue about being left or right for the rest of eternity. As polling day draws nearer, expect even more manifestos to be resurrected from the political archives.
After all, in election season, nothing ever truly disappears. It merely waits patiently in someone’s screenshot folder. The rest of course is decided by the voters.—June 30, 2026
