Why has the current DAP/Pakatan Rakyat state government not been able to stop the land title transfer?
This matter was decided by the Federal Court in favour of the Koperasi and developer. The land transfer was consequent to the approvals given by the previous Gerakan/BN administration. Once the decision of the previous executive council had been conveyed by approval letters for land alienation and development orders sent out to Koperasi and the developer, the current DAP/Pakatan Rakyat state government was legally bound. In other words, the DAP/Pakatan Rakyat state government has been powerless to legally stop the land transfer. Both the State Legal Adviser and DAP Chairman and prominent lawyer, Karpal Singh, hold the same view. The Federal Court has subsequently affirmed that there is nothing the DAP/Pakatan Rakyat government can do as it is bound by the decisions approved by the previous administration.
