专访YB曾亚英国会议员 Interview YB Tan Ah Eng, Member of Parliament

YB曾亚英国会议员
马华妇女组副主席

“社区服务是国会议员、州议员，甚至是县市议员、村长监督政府、协助落实与贯彻政府政策的重要途径，通过社区服务，我们可以把许多利民政策带给人民，让人民直接受惠！

虽然有人认为国会议员不应该因服务地方民生而沦为沟渠议员，但身为国会议员，我却认为这是贴近人民，了解民生疾苦的有效方法！也唯有a这样，我们在国会的议政和论证才能有理有据，实际有效！

所谓“民之所欲，常在我心”，如果我们能以这种态度来解决民困，那，就即使是在大课题的冲击之下，人民的支持将使我们经得起考验！”

YB Tan Ah Eng, Member of Parliament
Wanita MCA Vice Chairman

“Serving the community is an important channel for Members of Parliament, State Assemblymen/Assemblywomen, District and Municipal Councillors and village heads in monitoring the government and supporting the implementation of government policies. Through community service, we are able to bring the benefits of government policies directly to the people.

Although some consider that a Member of Parliament should not get too involvedin serving the community to the extent where one is labelled as “a Longkang MP”, as a Member of Parliament myself, I think that community service is an effective way for us to get close to the people and understand their problems and woes. Only through this will, we have a solid basis to present our case during deliberations on government policies in the Parliament and convey our messages effectively.

We must be always mindful of the needs of the people. If we can help the people address their problems with such an approach, we will be able to withstand any test posed by any major challenges with the support of the people.”
