MALAYSIANS are debating whether the government’s pumping RM1 bil into Federal Land Development Authority (FELDA) is the right thing to do or whether it is a waste of taxpayers’ money.While Perikatan Nasional (PN) is arguing the FELDA issue was solved in 2021 and former prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is accusing Prime Minister (PM) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of lying on the matter, Pasir Gudang MP Hassan Abdul Karim tweeted his support for the PM.
PM Anwar Ibrahim sedang selamatkan FELDA,agensi ekonomi terbesar bagi orang Melayu.
Beratus ribu peneroka FELDA di seluruh negara.
RM1 bilion kerajaan Anwar bantu FELDA setahun selama 10 tahun untuk menjamin kelangsungan FELDA.
Nampaknya Anwar juga yang selamatkan rakyat Melayu. pic.twitter.com/gfRqObUSy5— Hassan Karim (@hakarim_51) July 8, 2023
“Anwar has saved FELDA, the biggest economic agency for the Malay community. There are thousands of FELDA settlers across the country. Anwar’s government will spend RM1 bil annually for 10 years to ensure FELDA’s survival. It seems that Anwar is also the one who saved the Malay people.”
However, netizens are torn between whether this is a positive thing that the Anwar government has done or a negative one.Several users are pointing out that this is a large sum of money and they pointed out that such a sum could be used to rectify other issues in this country.Twitter user @Warhammer8881 stated:
Tax payers money, was this discussed and approved in Parliment? Why the double standard here? This is no small money.

FELDA ini dah 2023 pun masih mengemis bantuan kerajaan. Dari BN, PH, PN BN, PH BN. Dari Najib dengan FGV, Muhyiddin dan Ismail Sabri penghapusan hutang macam itu je.
Apa yang FELDA ini buat sebenarnya??? Berbillion-billion duit habis, hasilnya tahi. Jadi modal politik saja. https://t.co/I5gIg7wt22

“In 2023 FELDA is still begging the government for help. From Barisan Nasional (BN), Pakatan Harapan (PH), Perikatan Nasional (PN) BN, PH BN. From former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak with FGV, Muhyiddin and former prime minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri, the elimination of debt is just like that.
“What exactly does FELDA do? Billions of money are spent, and the result is shit. Everything is just political.”
Some state that the organisation has helped many individuals get themselves out of poverty. – July 9, 2023
From another perspective it did have in impact in it eradicating poverty
But the only issue it doesn’t have a sustainable plan.. a lot smart and intellectually came from FELDA but was brain cuz migration to bigger cities..
