Why is Malay-first Muhyiddin telling Penang to be fair to all? Is he kidding??

Be fair to all, DPM tells Guan Eng
By Himanshu Bhatt 

GEORGE TOWN (Feb 6, 2011): 
The Penang leadership should be fair to all the people in the state, regardless of race, by giving them opportunities to do business in the interest of the people's economic development, said Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.Saying everyone in the state had the right to be given an opportunity to venture into business, Muhyiddin called on Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng to serve the people of Penang.
"I appeal to the chief minister to be fair to the people of Penang," he said.
"Treat every one the same, whether Malay or Chinese or Indian," he added, stressing that many traders needed to sustain their livelihoods.
Speaking at the Penang Barisan Nasional (BN) Chinese New Year open house today, where Lim was present as an invited guest, Muhyiddin also refuted the Penang leadership's claim that the state is being left out of the overall economic development plans of the country.
Instead, the BN deputy chairman said it was important for the federal and state authorities to cooperate and build a working relationship for the benefit of the people.
In a speech punctuated by applause from BN supporters, Muhyiddin pointed out that the federal government has take "extraordinary measures" to implement plans like the Government Transformation Programme (GTP).
"Although the initiative is taken by the federal government, no state can be said to be excluded, and that is not benefiting from this development," he said.
"I hope Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng does not say that Penang is not benefiting from what the federal government is doing. That is not correct," he said.
"We will continue to help Penang not just because Guan Eng has become chief minister, but for the people of Penang."
Also present at the function attended by about 5,000 people were Penang BN chairman Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon as well as state BN leaders. --
