[Bahasa Malaysia] Dr M: "Jangan menggigit tangan yang membantu anda"

Kebelakangan ni, mantan Perdana Menteri Malaysia Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamed menyaran peneroka FELDA (Federal Land Development Authority) supaya "tidak menggigit tangan yang membantu anda" .

 

Mantan perdana menteri bukan sahaja mengiktiraf kepimpinan Perdana Menteri Najib Razak dalam usaha untuk memenangi Pilihanraya Umum ke -13 (PRU 13) di mana Parlimen akan dibubarkan secara automatik pada 28 April 2013, mantan PM juga berkempen secara aktif di barisan depan atau "Front line" untuk Barisan Nasional kebelakangan ni seumpama beliau sedang bertanding untuk menjadi Perdana Menteri semula.

 

Tun Dr. Mahathir berkata: "Jangan menggigit tangan yang membantu anda"

 

Saya kata kepada kerajaan: "Jangan mencuri daripada tangan yang mengundi anda"

 

Rakyat Malaysia mengundi ahli politik sebagai pemimpin kerajaan adalah untuk mewakili seluruh rakyat Malaysia untuk membuat polisi and menjaga harta and khazanah negara untuk kebaikan negara sekarang dan masa depan. Kita tidak mengundi parti politik sebagai kerajaan untuk memberi hak pemilikan harta dan khazanah kepada mereka dan menggunakannya untuk kepentingan diri atau kroni mereka. Cuma apabila Pilihan Raya Umum menjelang, pihak mereka baru nak memberi rezeki serba sikit tu kepada rakyat (itupun daripada harta negara dan cukai rakyat) dan menyeru rakyat supaya bersyukur, membalas budi dan "tidak menggigit tangan yang membantu mereka". Bukankah itu tanggungjawab dan amanah kerajaan untuk membantu rakyat? Oleh itu, kalau kerajaan yang dipilih "mencuri daripada tangan yang mengundi mereka", maka itulah tanggungjawab kita sebagai rakyat untuk melindungi masa depan dan khazanah negara dengan mengubah kerajaan, dan mengundi supaya kerajaan yang tidak menguruskan ekonomi negara dengan baik, gejala rasuah yang semakin berleluasa dan kebocoran yang melampau.

 

Ini kalilah, jom berubah! "Berhijrah" kepada kerajaan yang lebih baik!

Dr. M: Don't bite the hands that feed you

Recently, former Malaysian prime minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamed told Federal Land Development Authority (FELDA) settlers "Don't bite the hands that feed you". FELDA is a Malaysian government agency initially founded to resettle rural poor into newly developed areas and to develop small holder farms and in the past decades engages in diversified business activities.

 

The former Malaysian premier has not only endorsed current Prime Minister Najib Razak's campaign to win the coming 13th General Election, where the Parliament will automatically dissolves on 28th April 2013 but also has seen campaign actively for the ruling coalition on the front line.

 

Dr. Mahathir said "Don't bite the hands that feed you"

 

I said to the government "Don't steal from the hands that vote you"

 

We vote politicians into government office is to govern and make policies on behalf on all Malaysians for what is best for the nation and its future. We do not vote politicians into the government office to legitimize the act of possessing the nations' treasure and wealth at its whims and fancies. If the government of the day provides for its citizens, it is its' responsibility and duty as a government elected by the people. So if the government "steal from the hands that voted them in", then its our duty to safeguard the nation's future and wealth by changing the government, voting out a goverment that mismanaged the economy and worsening corruption and leakages.

 

This is it! Let's change!

Sabah's security and sovereignty breached?

Malaysia's authority and intelligence agency first alleged that there was an attempt on south korean superstar Psy's life during his special appearance in BN Penang Chinese New Year open house following a "yee sang toss" embarrassment that the Prime Minister Najib Razak, ministers and BN leaders had to wait for over 5 minutes on 11th February 2013.

 

Then the Malaysia's immigration department detained and deported an Australian Senator on 16th February 2013 alleging that the Australian lawmaker Xenophon tarnished the country's image for his "authoritarian" remarks of Malaysian Government handling of the BERSIH 2.0 rally on 28th April 2012.

 

However a security situation has emerged in Sabah recently with 100 armed men in Lahad Datu. Eventhough I have not follow the situation closely but the latest call by leader of DAP Parliamentarians YB Lim Kit Siang of an urgent Parliament session and Sabah State Assembly session warrants attention of all Malaysians, especially Sabahans on our country's sovereignty and the security and the safety of Malaysians, particularly Sabahans.

 

Excerpt from YB Lim Kit Siang's posting:

 

Jamalul Kiram III, who claims to be ruler of the now defunct Sulu Sultanate, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that he authorised the ‘incursion’ and that his men would remain in Lahad Datu as long as needed.

Jamalul said the group, led by his younger brother crown prince Agbimuddin Kiram, would remain in Sabah for “as long as necessary” in their bid to reclaim the state, which was formerly a territory of the Sulu Sultanate.

Regardless of the ruling government's preparation and preoccupation with the coming 13th General Election and their all-out in defending their seat of power, they must not forget or be lacking in anyway to protect the sovereignty and security of Malaysia.

Will Najib be the last UMNO Prime Minister of Malaysia?

70-Day Countdown to 13GE – Will Najib be the last Umno Prime Minister?

- by Lim Kit Siang

“Najib is not going to be the last Umno prime minister”, so says veteran Umno leader Tan Sri Abdullah Ahmad at the 15th Malaysia Strategic Outlook Conference organized by Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (Asli) today.

The Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak clearly does not share Abdullah’s confidence and optimism or he would have called for the 13th general elections already instead of dilly-dallying with hesitation and indecision in the past two years, gaining for himself a reputation of being an even greater Flip-Flop Prime Minister than his predecessor Tun Abdullah.

Nor the Johore Mentri Besar, Datuk Ghani Othman who told Kulai Chinese organizations less than three weeks ago that Pakatan Rakyat could win Putrajaya in the 13GE although he warned that the most the PR could win would be a slim majority of 5% to 10% of the parliamentary seats – i.e. a majority from 12 to 22 parliamentary seats.

Nor the UMNO/BN éminence grise, Tun Mahathir, who seems to be increasingly pessimistic about UMNO’s chances of winning Putrajaya in the 13GE, causing him to call on Malaysian voters to support “the devil you know than the angel you don’t”, and recently, making more and more reckless and desperate statements, like:

• his baseless accusation that the historic peaceful and successful Himpunan Kebangkitan Rakyat at Stadium Merdeka (KL112) by over 100,000 Malaysians from all races, religions and region was an attempt to topple the elected UMNO/BN government by violent means;

• his baseless accusation that the first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman had given citizenship to one million unqualified non-Malays before Merdeka in 1957 in an attempt to justify his “citizenship-for-votes” scam in Project M in Sabah, even suggesting a Royal Commission of Inquiry into Tunku Abdul Rahman’s issue of the one million citizenship to non-Malays before Merdeka.

However, despite the private doubts and diffidence of Umno/BN leadership about retaining Putrajaya in the 13GE, there can be no doubt that the UMNO/BN leaders and propagandists have ratcheted up their campaign which has gone into an overdrive in the mainstream and social media to convey the impression that they have supreme confidence not only to defeat Pakatan Rakyat in the 13GE, but going to win big by regaining two-thirds parliamentary majority.

But, as the Prime Minister knows, whether Najib is going to be the last UMNO prime minister is still very uncertain and undecided – and it is not going to be decided by the Umno leadership but by the 13 million Malaysian voters in the 13GE.

Undoubtedly the pre-eminent issues to be determined in the 13GE is whether Najib is the last Umno Prime Minister bringing UMNO/BN government to an end 55 years after Merdeka – liberating Malaysia from UMNO hegemony and set on the path of a normal democracy where voters can choose the Federal government they want through the ballot box during general elections.

[Bahasa Malaysia]- Adakah Najib akan jadi Perdana Menteri terakhir UMNO?

Pengiraan Detik 70 Hari ke PRU13 – Adakah Najib akan menjadi Perdana Menteri terakhir UMNO?

- Lim Kit Siang

“Najib tidak akan menjadi perdana menteri terakhir Umno”, begitulah kata seorang pemimpin lama Umno Tan Sri Abdullah Ahmad di Malaysia Strategic Outlook Conference ke-15 yang dianjurkan oleh Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (Asli) hari ini.

Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak jelas tidak mermpunyai keyakinan dan rasa optimis Abdullah, jika tidak tentu beliau telah memanggil untuk pilihan raya umum dan bukannya berbolak-balik dengan ragu-ragu dan tidak yakin sejak dua tahun lalu, memberkannya reputasi sebagai Perdana Menteri Berubah-Ubah lebih teruk berbanding perdana menteri sebelumnya, Tun Abdullah.

Begitu juga Menteri Besar Johor, Datuk Ghani Othman yang memberitahu pertubuhan Cina Kulai kurang daripada tiga minggu lalu bahawa Pakatan Rakyat boleh menawan Putrjaya dalam PRU13 walaupun beliau memberi amaran bahawa paling banyak PR boleh menang cuma majoriti tipis 5% hingga 10% kerusi parlimen – iaitu majoriti daripada 12 hingga 22 kerusi parlimen.

Dan juga manusia berkuasa di dalam UMNO/BN, Tun Mahathir, yang kelihatan semakin pesimis tentang peluang UMNO menawan Putrajaya dalam PRU13, membuatkannya menyeru pengundi Malaysia menyokong “syaitan yang dikenali bukannya malaikat yang tidak dikenali”, dan baru-baru ini membuat kenyataan yang lebih semberono dan terdesak seperti:

•tuduhan tidak berasas beliau bahawa Himpunan Kebangkitan Rakyat at Stadium Merdeka (KL112) yang aman dan berjaya dengan kehadiran 100,000 rakyat Malaysia dari pelbagai kaum, agama dan tempat adalah cubaan menggulingkan melalui jalan keganasan kerajaan UMNO/BN yang dipilih rakyat.

•tuduhan tidak berasas beliau bahawa Perdana Menteri pertama, Tunku Abdul Rahman sebelum Merdeka pada 1957 telah memberikan kewarganegaraan kepada satu juta bukan Melayu yang tidak layak dalam cubaanya untuk menjustifikasikan penipuan “kewarganegaraan untuk undi” dalam Projek M di Sabah, malah mencadangkan satu Suruhanjaya Siasatan Diraja untuk menyiasat isu Tunku Abdul Rahman dan kewarganegaraan satu juta bukan Melayu sebelum Merdeka.

Bagaimanapun, walaupun terdapat keraguan dan kurang keyakinan kepimpinan UMNO/BN mempertahankan Putrajaya dalam PRU13, tidak ada keraguan lagi bahawa pemimpin dan propagandis UMNO/BN telah memulakan kempen yang telah terlebih pacu dalam media perdana dan media sosial untuk memberikan gambaran bahawa mereka memiliki keyakinan besar bukan saja untuk menewaskan Pakatan Rakyat dalam PRU13 tetapi juga menang besar dengan memperoleh majoriti dua pertiga parlimen.

Akan tetapi seperti yang diketahui Perdana Menteri, sama ada Najib akan menjadi perdana menteri terakhir UMNO adalah masih tidak pasti dan belum diputuskan – dan ia tidak akan ditentukan oleh kepimpinan Umno tetapi oleh 13 juta pengundi Malaysia dalam PRU13.

Tidak diragui lagi isu menonjol yang akan ditentukan dalam PRU13 adalah sama ada Najib merupakan Perdana Menteri UMNO yang membawa pengakhiran kerajaan UMNO/BN selepas 55 tahun selepas Merdeka – membebaskan Malaysia daripada penguasaan UMNO dan menetapkan demokrasi normal yang mana pengundi boleh memilih kerajaan Persekutuan yang mereka mahu melalui peti undi ketika pilihan raya umum.- Lim Kit Siang
