BARISAN Nasional will solve Selangor’s chronic dengue issue, which stems from a lack of cleanlines­s, if given the mandate in the 14th General Election.

In his speech at the groundbrea­king of Kajang Hospital’s women and children’s complex yesterday, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said the issues of cleanlines­s and water cuts had affected Selangor folk badly.

He said a BN government would solve both problems.

He said Selangor should not be labelled “Darul Sampah” and “Darul Denggi” because of the incompeten­cy of its PKR-led government.

“Water cuts are a priority. We also have dengue and cleanlines­s issues.

“I give you my word that if BN is given the mandate for Selangor, these issues will be resolved by us.”

Najib pointed out the problems faced by Selangor folk following the infamous “Kajang move” in 2014.

‘There are two ‘Kajang moves’. One which benefited the people, and another which spelt more trouble for people.

“The Kajang move by PKR was unfulfille­d. Although Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail won the by-election, it only created bigger problems for the people.”

He said in contrast, the Kajang move undertaken by him was a success, a reference to the launch of the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang line and the building of the Kajang Hospital’s women and children’s complex.
