PKNS or Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Selangor was set up on the 1st of August 1964 to 'encourage socio-economic growth and foster stability, harmony and social justice through property development projects and trade and industrial development and investments'.
It’s philosophy is to develop Selangor by generating ideas and activities for the benefit of the people and to contribute towards creating a united Malaysian society.
So if keeping in line with its fundamental objectives and philosophies why the much fuss about the appointment of Low Siew Moi as the acting General Manager of PKNS?? Is it because of incompetency or is it gender or racial discrimination???
Lets ponder on the first reason shall we...Incompetency. It is a fact that Low had served PKNS and its cause for over 30 years now with 11 of those years served as the Deputy General Manager. Without doubt that she has done well in serving the people of Selangor to be able for promotion till the Deputy GM post. So the question of her competency and ability is out the door.
Next ponder point would be gender discrimination. Loh Siew Moi being a female might have caused some unrest among male chauvinists in the organization but there was also dissatisfaction among female quarters. Chauvinism reason is not valid as I am pretty sure no matter how conventional our thinking in Malaysia maybe, majority of us Rakyat have accepted that female are equals. Who knows in the near future we might have our very own first female Prime Minister. So this may not be the actually reason as well. Read More Here
