Rozali layak terima ganjaran RM33.4j...

Sekumpulan pemegang saham minoriti Puncak Niaga Holdings Bhd (PNHB) hari ini mempertahankan keputusan untuk memberi pakej ganjaran sehingga RM33.4 juta kepada pengerusi eksekutifnya, Tan Sri Rozali Ismail.

Pengerusi Kumpulan Pengawas Saham Minoriti Puncak Niaga Muhammad Imran Abdullah mereka meluluskan cadangan tersebut, yang dibentangkan di mesyuarat agung tahunan PNHB.

"Anda mesti faham, ini adalah orang yang mengasaskan syarikat ini 20 tahun lalu. Atas sekali sumbangannya, para pemegang saham bersetuju dengan bayaran ini,” katanya dalam satu sidang media hari ini.

Katanya, beliau secara peribadi berpendapat Rozali berhak menerima imbuhan tersebut dan mendakwa golongan yang membangkitkan isu berkenaan bukan terdiri dari golongan pemegang saham kepada syarikat pemegang konsesi air itu.

Ditanya lanjut mengenai perkara itu, Muhammad Imran berkata beliau dan pemegang saham terababit lebih prihatin mengenai dividen dan pulangan mereka, dan menambah usul mengenai ganjaran tersebut telahpun diputuskan.

Isu ganjaran berkenaan dipersoalkan oleh MP Klang Charles Santiago yang menyifatkannya sebagai keputusan “tidak beretika dan tidak bertanggungjawab” memandangkan air adalah untuk kegunaan awam.-malaysiakini

 Rozali deserves RM33.4 million payment

ODIN - Muhammad Imran Abdullah, you said, " . . . we are only concerned with our dividends and returns . . . . what we want are just returns and dividends. As long as we get it, we are happy." That the consumers in many areas often get dirty water or suffer from water supply disruptions are obviously of no consideration, at all, to you all. That more than amply illustrates the absence of human decency and principles among you small shareholders.

SelangorKu - HAHA-Minority watch dog group- properly more like they are hyenas or wolves in sheep clothings. They are part of a pack who plundered Selangor's water resources. What special skills that Rozali who is a lawyer in managing water resources other than his special skill as an UMNO crony - using his legal skills to pay himself much more than working as a sole practitioner legal firm. Name me one lawyer in town who can earn RM33.4 million per annum then I can concede that's a good pay compensation. Also, what was Rozali last drawn salary as a lawyer? Watchdog?- my foot.

Kenapa bayar RM33.4 juta Pengerusi Syabas, Rozali Ismail...

Ahli Parlimen DAP Klang, Charles Santiago menyifatkan imbuhan bernilai RM33.4 juta diperoleh Pengerusi Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (SYABAS), Tan Sri Rozali Ismail sebagai tindakan yang tidak bertanggungjawab.

Menurut beliau, selain itu Rozali turut menerima ganjaran berjumlah RM20 juta sebagai Pengerusi Puncak Niaga untuk 2012.

Rozali memegang jawatan sebagai Pengerusi SYABAS dan pemegang majoriti saham dalam Puncak Niaga.

“Walaupun ia adalah hak Puncak Niaga untuk membayar apa sahaja yang ia mahukan, imbuhan yang berlebihan itu tidak bererti keputusan itu beretika dan bertanggungjawab memandangkan air adalah hak milik awam,” katanya pada sidang media di Lobi Parlimen, semalam, mengkritik prestasi SYABAS di bawah pengurusan Rozali.

Katanya, dalam keadaan Selangor menghadapi krisis air, ganjaran RM20 juta sepatutnya digunakan untuk mengatasi masalah air, tapi sebaliknya pula dilakukan.

Kata Charles, gaji Rozali turut meningkat daripada RM14 juta pada 2009, RM8.35 juta pada 2011, dan RM33.4 juta pada 2012.

“Mengapa dia diberi ganjaran untuk ketidakcekapan dan pengurusan yang lemah? Ini menimbulkan kebimbangan serius mengenai merit ganjaran padanya,” soalnya.

Tambah Charles, ini membuktikan wujudnya konflik kepentingan dan tadbir urus korporat yang lemah dalam Puncak Niaga.

Beliau berkata, Rozali adalah bekas Bendahari UMNO Selangor, dan beberapa ahli jawatankuasa imbuhan Puncak Niaga terdiri daripada ahli dan bekas orang kanan Barisan Nasional (BN) Selangor.

“Ini jelas contoh bagaimana kroni politik digunakan untuk membawa pulang ganjaran atau
dalam kes ini, disebut bayaran ganjaran.

“Pada saat orang ramai mempersoalkan peranan dan tanggungjawab beliau, Puncak Niaga dan Rozali terus beroperasi dengan tidak takut langsung pada akauntabiliti,” katanya. -Roketkini.com

Is RM33.4mil payout a golden handshake...

Right-thinking Malaysians are completely outraged by the shocking RM33.4 million remuneration package for the executive chairperson of Puncak Niaga Holdings Bhd and its subsidiary, Syarikat Bekalan Air Selanagor, Rozali Ismail.

Malaysians are outraged because Rozali's companies have been awarded monopolistic concessions by the BN government to operate water treatment plants and to distribute water in the state of Selangor.

Water is an essential basic utility for every single Malaysian and we are completely flabbergasted that these concessions have been abused to outrageously enrich inidividuals who are cronies of the BN regime.

As a comparison, the remuneration package of the chief executive officer of Tenaga Nasional Bhd (TNB), the country's biggest utility is only RM7 million. 

For the financial year 2012, TNB recorded a revenue of RM35.85 billion compared to only RM2.5 billion of Puncak Niaga Holdings Bhd.

What makes the RM33.4 million award to Rozali (left) is the fact that Puncak Niaga is heavily laden with billions of ringgit of debt, and had to be bailed out by the government repeatedly in the last few years.

Because Puncak Niaga and Syabas was unable to repay their RM1.3 billion and RM2.9 billion debts respectively these debts were "taken over" by the federal government in 2011 to prevent these companies from defaulting. 

Based on the 2012 Puncak Niaga financial statement, the group has RM937 million in near-term loans and borrowings, and RM4,719 million in non-current loans and borrowings.

What is more, Puncak Niaga carries in its books a RM304 million debt to the government due to soft loans given the its group of companies to carry out its concession obligations in the state of Selangor.

This does not include the fact that the federal government has also provided grants amounting to RM726 million to Syabas, including the latest RM120 million granted in January this year.

Excessive remuneration package

For the Selangor residents, the excessive remuneration package for Rozali is rubbing salt on the people's wounds as Syabas has failed to consistently provide quality water supply and services to its consumers particularly over the past two years. 

Syabas has admitted that it has received a staggering 4,186 complaint calls daily since the start of the year as a result of constant water disruption, usually relating to poor pipe and reservoir maintenance.

We would like to question the company and the federal government if this RM33.4 million payout is a pre-emptive "golden handshake" payment to the executive chairman of Puncak Niaga in anticipation of the impending Selangor state government's takeover of water concessionaires in the state.

Since the last general election where the people of Selangor voted overwhelmingly in favour of Pakatan despite BN using "water" as its key campaign message, it appears that the federal government may concede to the wishes of the people to return to water management rights to the state government.

The Selangor Menteri Besar, Khalid Ibrahim (right), has announced in the Selangor State Assembly earlier this week that he has received a letter from the Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak that the latter has finally agreed for the state to take over water concessionaires, although details are still lacking at this point of time.

We call upon Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Air Negara (Span) to investigate this payout immediately and take all necessary actions to protect the interest of Malaysians.

In fact, the Energy, Green Technology and Water Ministry must immediately stop all extraordinary and non-operational payouts in the water concessionaires pending the restructuring exercise, particularly if these companies still owe billions of ringgit to the federal government.

At the same time, the Selangor state government must deduct all inapppropriate and "unapproved" expenses, such as this RM33.4 million "durian runtuh" for Rozali by these concessionaires from the proposed acquisition cost of these companies.

Cronies of BN must not profit unfairly beyond what they have already earned to date, at the expense of the rakyat, especially under Pakatan Rakyat's watch.- Tony Pua,Malaysiakini
