On 29 November 2024, Azmi, as the Telok Ayer Tawar MLA, unexpectedly called for a 'motion' to increase the salaries of the Penang MLAs during the Penang State Legislative Assembly meeting. He opened a news article in Chinese on his phone, pointing out that Negeri Sembilan MLAs were getting a salary increase. Hence, he hoped for the Penang MLAs to follow suit. Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow added that the issue did not need a reply as he had already addressed it during the state Budget 2025 presentation in the assembly. Speaker of the [Penang State Legislative Assembly|Speaker] Law Choo Kiang responded by saying that the assembly had already heard the calls for a salary increase of the MLAs and would let the assembly explore the matter.
