Gerakan’s Tan ‘joins’ Pakatan
By DHARMENDER SINGH and CHRISTINA TAN, (another politic frog again ?)
SHAH ALAM: Datuk Dr Tan Kee Kwong became the second Gerakan leader to take up a post with an Opposition-led state government. (why must he joint the PR government to serve selangor people ? I think there is many way to do other than helping our opposition )
The Federal Territory Gerakan chief and former Deputy Land and Cooperative Development Minister was named as co-chairman of Selangor's special task force on land issues.
"Gerakan feels I have no value in terms of serving the party and the people"- DATUK DR TAN KEE KWONG (Are you sure ? Gerakan is big, you have jump to the conclusion that Gerakan do not want your services, than in much earlier you should not joint Gerakan, or should resign before 2004 GE and not in this moment, when the party facing problem)
Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said the other co-chairman was former Land and Cooperative Development Ministry secretary-general Prof Datuk Dr Nik Mohd Zain Nik Yusof.
The appointment of Dr Tan means he will now be working for the Pakatan Rakyat state government. ( Than he should be call a running DOG for Gerakan)
Last month, Gerakan deputy secretary-general Lee Kah Choon accepted the Penang government's offer to take up the posts of InvestPenang executive chairman and Penang Development Corporation director. Lee later quit Gerakan. ( I think Dr tan should quit as well, he should quit much earlier if he is a man and have guts, not after 2008 GE, what the hell when the party have problem, all this frog leader jumping around)
Khalid said Dr Tan and Prof Dr Nik Mohd Zain would head a six-member task force that would study the management of land in Selangor and related policies, issues and problems before submitting suggestions for improvement. (I think khalid is trying to weaken our Gerakan by pulling more of Gerakan leader, i just wondering, why this experience frog leader can without the consciousness to joint and helping enemy during our party have problem, where is you heart ? )
“We decided to appoint the two men for their vast experience in land management. Dr Tan served as the deputy minister from 1999 to 2004 while Prof Dr Nik Mohd Zain was secretary-general from 1996 to 2002,” he told a press conference after chairing the weekly state executive council meeting here yesterday. (Bullshit, your purposes just to further weaken our strength)
Dr Tan said he would not resign from his Gerakan post after taking up the special task force co-chairman position. (than Gerakan should fire you )
He said news of his appointment was announced at 6pm yesterday, adding that no party official had called him to seek clarification over his decision to work with the Pakatan Rakyat state government. (than you wait lah................)
Dr Tan said Khalid, whom he has known for more than 20 years, contacted him two weeks ago with the offer to head the committee in an area which was vital but also most lacking in terms of efficiency. (than you should joint PKR 10 years ago not now)
“I said yes to the offer because I joined politics to serve the people and country. The post provides me the chance to continue this work while Gerakan feels I have no value in terms of serving the party and the people,” the 61-year-old politician said when contacted last night. (rubbish, when we joint politic to serve people may not necessary holding any post to help people OK)
He said he also had a lot of respect for the first-time mentri besar as he had highlighted and worked to solve many of the issues that many before him had failed to address.
The task force would start work in two weeks, Dr Tan said, as the other members had yet to be picked.
It will have three months to submit recommendations to the state government. (you better do not pull our gerakan member again)

又一民政领袖效劳民盟政府
又一民政领袖效劳民盟政府
陈记光受委雪土地委会主席
黄凌风 | 5月28日 晚上8点47分
tan kee kong interview 240805 forward thinking继李家全之后，又有一名民政党领袖将为人民联盟州政府效劳！雪州政府今日宣布，委任民政党联邦直辖区主席陈记光（左图）出任该州土地发展调查委员会主席。
由人民联盟执政的雪州，今日在行政议会会议后，仿效槟城政府委任前民政党副总秘书李家全的做法，委任陈记光领导一个特别工作队，专司研究州内的土地管理事务、政策和问题，并向州政府建议解决方案。
雪州大臣卡立依布拉欣在新闻发布会上表示，这个工作队将拥有6名成员，除了陈记光之外，另一名联合主席是聂莫哈末再因（Nik Mohd Zain bin Nik Mohd Yusof）。
前土地部秘书长任联合主席
陈记光曾於1999年至2004年出任土地及合作社发展部副部长，而聂莫哈末再因则在1996年至2002年期间出任该部的秘书长。
卡立表示，有鉴于上述两人的工作经验，相信他们对于土地事务拥有资深的经验。
他说，雪州政府非常关注州内的土地管理问题，因此上述特别工作队也将探讨州政府所实施的电子土地计划（e-tanah）成效。
认识卡立逾廿载，友人献意
陈记光告诉《当今大马》，他是为了“协助面对诸多土地问题的雪州人民”，才接受雪州政府的委任。
他说，早在他於1995年踏入政坛前，就已经认识卡立依布拉欣，两人相识已超过廿载。
陈记光透露，一名两人都认识的朋友在两周前献意他出任上述职位，结果他答应有关的委任。
他也有出席今天的雪州行政议会上，并获得全体行政议员的支持。
询及他为民盟州政府效劳，是否会担心被民政党纪律对付的问题时，陈记光表示，政党应该是一个协助人民的平台，他是基于这个原则才接受雪州政府的委任。
步李家全后尘退党？言之过早
针对他是否会步李家全的后尘退党时，陈记光淡淡的回答说，目前言之过早，一切胥视局势的发展而定。
虽然坊间传言他有意在来届民政党党选挑战党主席一职，但是陈记光今日受询时，却全推到媒体身上，指一切都是媒体的揣测。
“这些只是媒体制造的谣言。我没有这么说过，不是从我口中说出来的。”
家全是在4月20日，接受槟州首席部长林冠英委任，出掌两个负责规划槟州经济的要职，即槟州发展机构（PDC）董事，以及投资槟城（Invest Penang）董事兼执行委员会主席。
李家全在接受委任时，透露本身是以槟州子民身份接受委任，并宣布退隐活跃政治，只保留民政党的党员身份。但是随后，他却收到民政党所发出的纪律信函要求他解释为何不应被对付。遭到多名党领袖批评下，李家全随即宣布退出民政党和抽离政党政治，以平息委任的争议。他也是自大选后首位退出民政党的高层领袖。
在李家全宣布退党后，以陈记光为首的一群民政党联邦直辖区领袖，曾炮轰该党前主席林敬益“逼走”李家全，并违背其不干预党务的承诺。

Tsu Koon to play mediator role
Tsu Koon to play mediator role
GEORGE TOWN: Small and medium industries (SMIs) in Penang that are facing problems can look up to former Penang Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon.
State Gerakan SMI bureau head Michael Heah said they could forward their grouses to the Federal Government through Dr Koh.
“Dr Koh will use his connections to channel their grievances to International Trade and Industry Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin,” he said at a press conference at the state Gerakan headquarters here yesterday.
Heah said the 3,000-odd SMIs in the state were in the dark over what was taking place in the state under the new state government.
He urged the state to work closely with the Federal Government to attract foreign investments and formulate strategies to collectively tackle difficulties and overcome challenges.
He said many foreign investors were adopting a “wait and see” attitude to ascertain whether the political scenario in the state was stable.
“We are facing intense competition from Asian countries. The increase in the price of raw materials and rising manpower costs has affected many SMIs in Penang.
“Some have closed down and relocated to other countries,” he said.
He said the Federal Government should continue assisting SMIs in Penang although the state was governed by Pakatan Rakyat.
The press conference was called to announce the CEO Tips Coffee Talk that will be held at Paradise Cafe near Queensbay Mall on June 5 at 7pm.
Dr Koh will be speaking at the talk themed “Challenges in the Time of Change”.
Entry to the talk sponsored by HSBC is free. Seats are limited to 100 participants. For registration, call Ng or Matthew at 046462020 before June 1.

Gerakan retools itself to get back in mainstream politics
Gerakan retools itself to get back in mainstream politics
By ROYCE CHEAH
KUALA LUMPUR: Gerakan will be positioning itself as the party of choice for all Malaysians under a rebranding effort that it hopes would bring the party back to mainstream politics.
At the party's 40th anniversary on Sunday, Gerakan acting president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon said the party's mission was to build a united and democratic nation.
"In order to achieve this, we must consolidate, evaluate, motivate and rejuvenate the party."
Dr Koh said three thrusts would be undertaken, one of which was to voice Gerakan's ideology and policy position, and to advocate a Malaysian solution for major issues.
"The other two is to rebuild, rebrand and re-empower the party at all levels to effectively serve and represent all Malaysians and by doing so, to win the people's hearts and minds while regaining their mandate."
Dr Koh said the party was at its most challenging crossroads following the dismal results of the March 8 general election.
"Most of us are dejected or demoralised but we must keep telling ourselves that we are down but definitely not out," he said.
Dr Koh said after meeting with grassroots members over the past two months, the picture was clear that the members wanted Gerakan to continue.
"A few may have gone astray. We can understand that. But we will keep fighting because we believe we are still relevant to the people."
He added that Gerakan had to quickly understand the new political environment and that politics now had moved from being racial-based to being issues-based.
"That is exactly what we are fighting for, but somehow we ended up on the other side.
"In this case, what is good for the country is negative for the party but it confirms that this is the way forward and we definitely have a role to play."
He added that Gerakan would execute its plan via eight strategies consisting of broad plans to expand and consolidate membership while rebuilding the party in Penang.
"One of the ideas is to provide a more flexible structure by opening cyber branches so that Malaysians overseas can also participate in the party," he said.

Dr M, Sanusi quit Umno is a personal vendetta with Abdullah?（do this help UMNO and BN?)
Dr M, Sanusi quit Umno (is a personal vendetta with Abdullah)
ALOR STAR: Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and veteran party man Tan Sri Sanusi Junid announced Monday that they are quitting Umno. (I think Dr M , Old already, he can't wait to see the chnage, the change need time DR M, even you do not have time , you should not give a earth quake to UMNO and BN)
Dr Mahathir Mohamad announced this on Monday at 12.35pm, citing a lack of confidence in the current leadership. (Than in the first place why Dr M choose Badawi? a good and senior leader is telling us such a naive comments, i think they may have personal problem, instead of choosing wrong leader as Badawi)
"I am quitting Umno today," he told about 1,000 people, mostly Kedah Umno members, at a talk here on Monday. (than we should celebrating the senior leader retirement)
"I will write a letter to Umno headquarters to inform that I have quit the party," he said. (remember promissory estoppal OK)
He has been critical of his appointed successor Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, blaming the current Umno president for the party's disappointing performance in the 12th general election. (than how, as Pak lah to retire? or Dr M want to make the whole Malaysia to chaos ?)
The ruling Barisan Nasional coalition, of which Umno is the largest component party, won the March 8 election with a simple majority, and saw four more states join Kelantan under Opposition rule.
Dr Mahathir urged other party members to quit too, as a way of pressuring Abdullah into vacating his post. (Than the whole Malaysia go to hell, we need a peacefull Malaysia , not a chaos Malaysia OK)
However, he advised those who do quit not to join any opposition party, adding they can all rejoin the party once there is a change in leadership.(are Dr M promoting PKR ? or PAS ? why not promoting Gerakan ?Hahah)
Abdullah has so far refused all calls for him to step down, and said he would defend his presidency in the party polls in December.
Sanusi, who is a former Kedah Mentri Besar, also quit the party on Monday.
PM Abdullah: Shocked
Meanwhile, Abdullah said he was shocked by the decision and, despite their differences, had not expected him to leave.
However, the beleaguered premier said he would stay on and fight for the party.
“Perhaps some other members might leave too, but this won’t entirely affect the party. It all depends on whether the rest want to stay on and continue to fight for the party too,” he said.
In KLANG: Former Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo said Dr Mahathir’s decision will affect public perception of Umno’s strength and possibly discourage youngsters from joining the party.
Many of those aged below 40 years grew up during Dr Mahathir’s premiership and hold him in high regard. ( I think so, but am not)
“Dr Mahathir’s resignation will have a huge impact on the trust that this group of people, including the Malays, have in Umno and its capability to lead the country,” he said.
He said youngsters wanting to join the party now might also shy away as questions would be raised on Umno’s ability to be effective as a party.
“These youngsters might not join other parties but they will stay away until Umno can mend the current situation and avoid splits in the party,” he said.
In PUTRAJAYA, Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said it was a bad time for Dr Mahathir to quit Umno as the party was going through a difficult period.
He said the resignation would not help in efforts to rebuild Umno.
"He is doing more damage than good; whatever it is, the party is still looking for a new direction and we need everyone to remain united and not split," he said.
Syed Hamid expressed fear for the future of Umno because Dr Mahathir had a great influence and a person of his stature could rattle and destroy the party.
Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad said Dr Mahathir's hatred for Abdullah was seemingly stronger than his love for Umno.
He said the former premier should realise that asking others to follow his footsteps would only make it easier for Pakatan Rakyat to take over the Federal Government.
"What he is saying is that if you love Umno, leave Umno -- it does not make sense," he said.
Shahrir also said that Jerlun MP Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir should be the first to take up his father's suggestion to quit.
Umno information chief Tan Sri Muhammad Muhammad Taib said he was surprised at the decision, but added that it was Dr Mahathir's right to do so.
"Every member has the right to join or leave the party," he said.
Asked if Umno would convene an emergency meeting, the former Umno vice-president and Selangor Mentri Besar said that "we will wait and see."
The next Umno Supreme Council meeting is scheduled to be held within two to three weeks.
Urged to reconsider
In IPOH, MCA secretary-general Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan called on Dr Mahathir to reconsider his decision.
Speaking at a press conference after a Wesak Day celebration at the Malaysian Buddhist Associatino (Perak branch) hall here, Ong said he was saddened by Dr Mahathir's sudden announcement.
Barisan Nasional was currently facing a huge challenge and his decision would not benefit Umno and the coalition, said Ong, who is also Housing and Local Government Minister.
As a former Prime Minister, his words carried weight and would affect all levels of the people including party leaders, he said.
“We do not hope for any more problems and neither should we create more,” he said. “Our country needs stability and not uncertainty. His decision would paint a bad impression for the rakyat (citizenry) and foreign investors,” he added.
Lumut Umno division chief Datuk Dr Zambry Abd Kadir also urged Dr Mahathir to reconsider his decision.
“I feel very sad with Tun's decision to leave the party. It should not have happened in the first place,” he said.
Dr Zambry, who is also Pangkor assemblyman, said Dr Mahathir was a great leader who provided a sense of direction and ideas for the party and country.
The problem involved a former president and the present one, he said, adding that it so happened that the predecessor had appointed the current one.
“So it is a complex issue,” he said, adding that the current leadership must immediately find ways to overcome the problems in the party.
Dr Zambry pointed out that it was not unprecedented for former party presidents to quit Umno, adding that Dr Mahathir was the party's fourth president to leave the party.
The other three were the late Datuk Onn Jaafar, Tunku Abdul Rahman and Tun Hussein Onn, he added.
In PETALING JAYA, Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said said Dr Mahathir's decision would not solve the problems faced by the party and would instead give more strength to the Opposition.
"At this time when the party is under stress, all parties including leaders and former leaders must work together to heal Umno so it becomes firm and strong," she said.
In MALACCA, Umno veteran and stalwart Tan Sri Aziz Tapa, 85, said that he was shocked at the news and was at a loss for words.
“How can it be when he (Mahathir) says that he loves Umno? I met him only few days ago in Johor and everything seemed okay. What he is doing is not right,” he said when contacted here on Monday.
Umno supreme council member Tan Sri Rahim Thamby Chik described the move as an "interesting but tragic development" for Umno.
"It's shocking news to me. If true, then I would say that it is an interesting yet tragic development for the party,” he said.
Reacting to Dr Mahathir's resignation, Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said, “This will weaken the party at a time when it is facing its enemies.”
Dr Mahathir joined Umno at its inception in 1946.
He became a Member of Parliament in 1964 when he won the Kota Setar Selatan seat.
He lost the seat in the following general election in 1969.
Following the May 13, 1969, riots Dr Mahathir was sacked from the Umno Supreme Council on July 12 because of the widespread distribution of his letter to first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman criticising Tunku’s manner of handling the country’s administration.
Dr Mahathir rejoined Umno on March 7, 1972 and was appointed Senator in 1973. He relinquished the senatorship post a year later to contest the Kubang Pasu seat in the general elections. He was returned unopposed and was appointed Minister of Education.
In 1975, Dr Mahathir became one of the three vice-presidents of Umno.
Tun Hussein Onn appointed Dr Mahathir Deputy Prime Minister on Sept 15, 1978.
Dr Mahathir was Prime Minister of Malaysia from July 16, 1981, until Oct 31, 2003.

"I am quitting Umno today," he told about 1,000 people, mostly Kedah Umno members, at a talk here on Monday. (than we should celebrating the senior leader retirement)
"I will write a letter to Umno headquarters to inform that I have quit the party," he said. (remember promissory estoppal OK)
He has been critical of his appointed successor Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, blaming the current Umno president for the party's disappointing performance in the 12th general election. (than how, as Pak lah to retire? or Dr M want to make the whole Malaysia to chaos ?)
The ruling Barisan Nasional coalition, of which Umno is the largest component party, won the March 8 election with a simple majority, and saw four more states join Kelantan under Opposition rule.
Dr Mahathir urged other party members to quit too, as a way of pressuring Abdullah into vacating his post. (Than the whole Malaysia go to hell, we need a peacefull Malaysia , not a chaos Malaysia OK)
However, he advised those who do quit not to join any opposition party, adding they can all rejoin the party once there is a change in leadership.(are Dr M promoting PKR ? or PAS ? why not promoting Gerakan ?Hahah)
Abdullah has so far refused all calls for him to step down, and said he would defend his presidency in the party polls in December.
Sanusi, who is a former Kedah Mentri Besar, also quit the party on Monday.
PM Abdullah: Shocked
Meanwhile, Abdullah said he was shocked by the decision and, despite their differences, had not expected him to leave.
However, the beleaguered premier said he would stay on and fight for the party.
“Perhaps some other members might leave too, but this won’t entirely affect the party. It all depends on whether the rest want to stay on and continue to fight for the party too,” he said.
In KLANG: Former Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo said Dr Mahathir’s decision will affect public perception of Umno’s strength and possibly discourage youngsters from joining the party.
Many of those aged below 40 years grew up during Dr Mahathir’s premiership and hold him in high regard. ( I think so, but am not)
“Dr Mahathir’s resignation will have a huge impact on the trust that this group of people, including the Malays, have in Umno and its capability to lead the country,” he said.
He said youngsters wanting to join the party now might also shy away as questions would be raised on Umno’s ability to be effective as a party.
“These youngsters might not join other parties but they will stay away until Umno can mend the current situation and avoid splits in the party,” he said.
In PUTRAJAYA, Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said it was a bad time for Dr Mahathir to quit Umno as the party was going through a difficult period.
He said the resignation would not help in efforts to rebuild Umno.
"He is doing more damage than good; whatever it is, the party is still looking for a new direction and we need everyone to remain united and not split," he said.
Syed Hamid expressed fear for the future of Umno because Dr Mahathir had a great influence and a person of his stature could rattle and destroy the party.
Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad said Dr Mahathir's hatred for Abdullah was seemingly stronger than his love for Umno.
He said the former premier should realise that asking others to follow his footsteps would only make it easier for Pakatan Rakyat to take over the Federal Government.
"What he is saying is that if you love Umno, leave Umno -- it does not make sense," he said.
Shahrir also said that Jerlun MP Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir should be the first to take up his father's suggestion to quit.
Umno information chief Tan Sri Muhammad Muhammad Taib said he was surprised at the decision, but added that it was Dr Mahathir's right to do so.
"Every member has the right to join or leave the party," he said.
Asked if Umno would convene an emergency meeting, the former Umno vice-president and Selangor Mentri Besar said that "we will wait and see."
The next Umno Supreme Council meeting is scheduled to be held within two to three weeks.
Urged to reconsider
In IPOH, MCA secretary-general Datuk Seri Ong Ka Chuan called on Dr Mahathir to reconsider his decision.
Speaking at a press conference after a Wesak Day celebration at the Malaysian Buddhist Associatino (Perak branch) hall here, Ong said he was saddened by Dr Mahathir's sudden announcement.
Barisan Nasional was currently facing a huge challenge and his decision would not benefit Umno and the coalition, said Ong, who is also Housing and Local Government Minister.
As a former Prime Minister, his words carried weight and would affect all levels of the people including party leaders, he said.
“We do not hope for any more problems and neither should we create more,” he said. “Our country needs stability and not uncertainty. His decision would paint a bad impression for the rakyat (citizenry) and foreign investors,” he added.
Lumut Umno division chief Datuk Dr Zambry Abd Kadir also urged Dr Mahathir to reconsider his decision.
“I feel very sad with Tun's decision to leave the party. It should not have happened in the first place,” he said.
Dr Zambry, who is also Pangkor assemblyman, said Dr Mahathir was a great leader who provided a sense of direction and ideas for the party and country.
The problem involved a former president and the present one, he said, adding that it so happened that the predecessor had appointed the current one.
“So it is a complex issue,” he said, adding that the current leadership must immediately find ways to overcome the problems in the party.
Dr Zambry pointed out that it was not unprecedented for former party presidents to quit Umno, adding that Dr Mahathir was the party's fourth president to leave the party.
The other three were the late Datuk Onn Jaafar, Tunku Abdul Rahman and Tun Hussein Onn, he added.
In PETALING JAYA, Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said said Dr Mahathir's decision would not solve the problems faced by the party and would instead give more strength to the Opposition.
"At this time when the party is under stress, all parties including leaders and former leaders must work together to heal Umno so it becomes firm and strong," she said.
In MALACCA, Umno veteran and stalwart Tan Sri Aziz Tapa, 85, said that he was shocked at the news and was at a loss for words.
“How can it be when he (Mahathir) says that he loves Umno? I met him only few days ago in Johor and everything seemed okay. What he is doing is not right,” he said when contacted here on Monday.
Umno supreme council member Tan Sri Rahim Thamby Chik described the move as an "interesting but tragic development" for Umno.
"It's shocking news to me. If true, then I would say that it is an interesting yet tragic development for the party,” he said.
Reacting to Dr Mahathir's resignation, Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said, “This will weaken the party at a time when it is facing its enemies.”
Dr Mahathir joined Umno at its inception in 1946.
He became a Member of Parliament in 1964 when he won the Kota Setar Selatan seat.
He lost the seat in the following general election in 1969.
Following the May 13, 1969, riots Dr Mahathir was sacked from the Umno Supreme Council on July 12 because of the widespread distribution of his letter to first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman criticising Tunku’s manner of handling the country’s administration.
Dr Mahathir rejoined Umno on March 7, 1972 and was appointed Senator in 1973. He relinquished the senatorship post a year later to contest the Kubang Pasu seat in the general elections. He was returned unopposed and was appointed Minister of Education.
In 1975, Dr Mahathir became one of the three vice-presidents of Umno.
Tun Hussein Onn appointed Dr Mahathir Deputy Prime Minister on Sept 15, 1978.
Dr Mahathir was Prime Minister of Malaysia from July 16, 1981, until Oct 31, 2003.

马哈迪宣布退出巫统！是好事吗?
马哈迪宣布退出巫统！
邀党员紧随施压阿都拉
5月19日 中午12点53分
前首相马哈迪为巫统抛下一枚震撼弹，今午出人意料的宣布退党，以示对现任巫统主席阿都拉的不信任。(如此做法可使巫统更强吗? 此举可能使巫统大战,悲...............)
自1946年加入巫统的马哈迪，也促请其他巫统党员跟随其步伐退党，一直到巫统领导层更换为止。
等阿都拉辞职才会重返巫统
“除非更换领导层，否则我不会重回巫统。”(这是敦马一厢情愿,巫统弱,国阵完蛋,我们要的是巫统变而不是完蛋)
他今早在吉打亚罗士打的一场“第12届大选后的马来人地位”讲座上宣布退出巫统，并表示这项决定立即生效。
当今巫统只捍卫阿都拉权利
马哈迪表示，巫统在阿都拉的掌舵下，已经不再是1946年所成立的巫统。（敦马以为他还是弟一的，放不下，悲。。。。）
“当时的巫统为马来人利益、权利和特权斗争，但是现在却沦落至，只会支持阿都拉的脆弱领导，为了他、其家族与朋党的利益。” （我们要的是大马人利益、权利和特权斗争，而不是马来人，敦马老了，没用了，放下吧）
“有鉴于此，我放弃我的巫统终身党籍”，马哈迪补充说，他将会立即致函巫统总秘书通知此事。
询及其退党是否能够成功迫使阿都拉下台时，马哈迪表示，他无法肯定，因为“此人（阿都拉）看来什么事都不了解”。
“爱阿都拉”者将不会退党，（那里来的绝论，敦马老了，放下吧！）
针对其退党是否将引发一轮巫统领袖与党员的退党潮，马哈迪表示，如果他们是爱党的话，就应该和有勇气这么做。
“如果他们爱巫统，要巫统生存下去，那么他们应该辞职，以示对阿都拉领导的不信任。” （敦马此举巫统大乱，爱巫统，哈哈！爱自己吧，敦马放下吧！，此举可使大马大乱，平民们可要小心了，担心。。。。。。）
“但是，如果他们爱阿都拉多过爱党，那么他们就不会退党。”
较早时，马哈迪在演讲中呼吁各阶层的巫统领袖与党员一起退党，以便向阿都拉传达一致的讯息，即“我们已经不要你了”。（如果每一个都有此想一法，世界大乱）
“我们无法等待党选，因为没有区部敢提名其他人竞选最高职。因此，最好的方法就是我们先退党，以便迫使他下台。”
观众挑战马哈迪以身作则退党，在问答环节中，现场一名出席者向马哈迪抛出一个问题，挑战马哈迪是否会以身作则率先宣布退党，导致马哈迪即席做出退党的宣布。
“我今天宣布退出巫统，因为我再也无法忍受阿都拉的领导。” （政治要忍得，等得，可能敦马老了不可等，此举可有想到后果，哀。。。。。。。。。。。）
被其他出席者追问其退党是否属实时，马哈迪强调，他是一名有原则的人，绝不会出尔反尔。（哈哈！政治有原则的人吗？）
他向台下的约1千200名群众说，“我会坚守承诺退党，一直到阿都拉下台”。（阿都拉下台，敦马有好处吗？）
促巫统领袖别加入反对党
虽然目前人民联盟正积极拉拢国阵议员跳槽，但是马哈迪表示，如果巫统党员退党后加入其他政党，将违背退党的原意。
“我们的目的是迫使阿都拉下台。一旦他辞职后，我们全部将重返和重振巫统。” （笑言。。。）
山努西率先响应宣布退党 （又一个老人家演戏了）
在马哈迪执政期间出任农业部长和前任吉打州务大臣的山努西祖尼（Sanusi Junid），率先响应马哈迪的呼吁，宣布退出巫统。
现年82岁的马哈迪於1954年开始活跃于政坛，在1959年参加吉打州议会选举并成功中选。他在1964年首次中选为国会议员。
不过，在1969年大选寻求蝉联失败的马哈迪，对于第一任首相东姑阿都拉曼曾做出许多批评，更致函促请后者辞职。结果，马哈迪在同一年遭到巫统最高理事会开除党籍。
然而，在东姑阿都拉曼下台后，马哈迪在1972年受到第二任首相敦拉萨的重召返回巫统。马哈迪在1974年大选不劳而获成功古邦巴素国会议员，同年被委为教育部长。
马哈迪在1975年出任巫统副主席，在1978年9月15日委为副首相。马哈迪在1981年接过敦胡先翁棒子出任第四任首相。
马哈迪在2003年10月31日正式交棒给现任首相阿都拉。
但是，马哈迪却在2005年开始不停对阿都拉的施政做出抨击，导致在2006年一度传出巫统有意吊销马哈迪的党籍，不过最终没有下文。
“林甘影片”案引起反击
随着巫统在第12届大选面对重大挫败，率先要求更换巫统领导层的马哈迪与阿都拉的矛盾尖锐化，马哈迪今天更抢先一步，自我宣布退出巫统。
内阁日前同意对“林甘影片”丑闻一事，对马哈迪等6名涉案者进行调查，引起马哈迪的反击，并公开挑战政府将他控上法庭。他恫言，一旦闹上法庭，自己将抖出更多司法界内幕。

Koh: Time to rejuvenate Gerakan with young blood (time to change)
Koh: Time to rejuvenate Gerakan with young blood (is hard to encourage the young generation to joint us now, unless we willing to change)
KUALA LUMPUR: Gerakan will focus on bringing in young blood to its leadership in the upcoming party elections and remains unshaken by the resignations of its two senior members. (i always hope this thing can be happen in our johor gerakan)
Acting Gerakan president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon said changes in leadership on different levels were to rejuvenate the party.(But please just not restricted in HQ, Johor also need this happen, please)
He stressed that the party would not adopt any quota system to curb the number of young leaders.(I not think gerakan have this culture anyway)
“This is what we will focus on, and I am confident that Datuk Rhina Bhar and Datuk Lee Kah Choon's resignations will not affect the party's morale,” said Koh. (who care this two politic frog, shame on their politic ethical, this is about personal too bad)
“In fact, in the past two weeks alone we have recruited some 5,000 members. This shows that Gerakan is very much alive,” he told reporters after chairing a central committee meeting in Menara PGRM here yesterday. (we also hope so)
Party vice-president and Wanita national chairman Rhina tendered her resignation on Monday, citing racial bias in the leadership.(this is bullshit)
Lee, formerly party deputy secretary-general, resigned to take up the posts of InvestPenang executive chairman and Penang Development Corporation director under the Pakatan Rakyat government last month.
When pressed for comments on Rhina's resignation, Koh said:“It was very unexpected. That is all I am going to say. The secretary-general has said the rest. We will now just focus on our party elections.” (make sure we have good brighter party future)

Rhina Bhar quits Gerakan after 30 years-ANOTHER POLITIC FROG
Rhina Bhar quits Gerakan after 30 years (why you quit now because no senator for you or no more lobang?)
PENANG: Former Gerakan vice-president and Wanita national chairman Datuk Rhina Bhar has quit the party after 30 years, citing racial bias in the leadership. (If you have been disappointed by party for so long than you should choose to resign much earlier . And why at this moment you commented that the party is marginalized Indian ? why don'tyou claiming party marginalized Human being even better, terrifying comments)
“It is impossible for me to continue working under the present conditions,” she said. （what kind of condition you are talking about ? at losing all our seat seat moment? where is your politician ethical?)
“Gerakan is to be a multiracial party but the leaders have been making many racist remarks. Enough is enough,” she said. (why your enough is at this moment, what your enough is not at the moment when we won almost 90% at last election？）
Rhina, 59, who tendered her resignation on Monday, also hit out at Gerakan adviser Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik for “practising double standards”.
Rhina also expressed her disappointment over Gerakan acting president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon’s comments for not fielding any Indian candidates in the last general election. ( than should party give all the seat to you even better right ?)
Both Dr Koh and Dr Lim could not be reached for comments.
The Bukit Bendera Gerakan Wanita chief said she was taking a break from politics to “heal her broken heart.” (than you are trying to break our heart right? you are very disappointing us as well, what the hell of politic concept you have ? leaving party when the party losing 90% of seats?)
“But I am keeping my options open to consider joining other political parties or non-governmental organisations, which can provide me an opportunity to serve the people,” she added.(politic opportunistic) from some of Johor gerakan comments

Lim Guan Eng -is Taiwan Ah Bian? Best actor for Oscar?
Firstly, DAP have a actor culture, LGE have won the seat in Penang, he supposed to work hard and keep quiet in this moment, I think LGE have problem in DAP itself due to his acting character. Penang issue just a standard issue, LGE is trying to make it as a big issue and misleading the penangite that he is working. Initially penangite may have the impression that he is working hard, but subsequently i think penangite will get fed up by all this movie acting, all the movie that LGE acted is boring, do you think that all malaysian is so stupid to just watching movie of DAP? I not think so, serve people still need a basic, work hard and serve the people sincerely instead of work nothing talking a lot. LGE is Taiwan Ah Bian, during LGE is a opposition, he is keep complaint and complaint a lot, however this have be come a habit, and the worst thing is this is become a culture of DAP, exactly like Taiwan Ah Bian right ? I think LGE will self acting and directing another movie like ah bian in Taiwan in the next election, whereby arrange a assassination movie to get the sympathy of Penangite, all this rubbish and bullshit politician should disappear in Our politic Culture.
What we need is a sincere and hard working politician, not a good actor.
Finally Ask Khoo Kay peng to fuck off this politic young bird is talking nonsense, who is this guy never heard of him, just because we lost our seat than he frogging to DAp and start shoooting our gerakan leader, go to hell lah Bodek

Gerakan VP: Guan Eng naive, ignorant or playing politics
Gerakan VP: Guan Eng naive, ignorant or playing politics
Jason ANG comments: Lim Guan Eng more than above he is stupid, bullshit and trying to make movie by his own.
PENANG: Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng is naive, ignorant or merely playing politics, says Gerakan.
Its vice-president Datuk Dr Teng Hock Nan said that Lim seemed to be asking questions through the media for answers which he could easily get from his officers, reports, documents and briefings.
“I am saying he is naive because all the questions he has been asking can be easily obtained because he has access to all the information,” he told a press conference yesterday.
Dr Teng said this showed that Lim was not ready to take on responsibility as a chief minister.
“I do not know whether to call him Chief Minister or just Lim Guan Eng,” he said.
Dr Teng, who is a former state executive councillor, also hit out at Lim for asking him and former chief minister Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon to apologise to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi for misleading the latter on the proposed RM25bil Penang Global City Centre (PGCC) project.
Lim had said that Abdullah was invited to launch the proposed project last year when the Penang local authorities had yet to approve the project.
Dr Teng said he was appalled that Lim had made such baseless statements.
“The Prime Minister was fully aware during the soft launch that the local authorities had yet to approve the planning permit.
“That was why the Prime Minister requested the state government to facilitate the process,” he said, adding that the project was proposed on private land owned by the Penang Turf Club.
Dr Teng also clarified that it was the developer who invited the Prime Minister and state authorities as part of their marketing strategy.
Meanwhile, Lim said he regretted Dr Teng’s personal attack against him.
He said all the state government wanted, when it questioned why the Prime Minister was invited to launch the PGCC project when it had yet to be approved by the local authorities, were answers based on facts.
“Instead of answering the state government’s questions to him, Dr Teng has launched a personal attack against me,” Lim told reporters after receiving a courtesy call from Korean ambassador to Malaysia Bong Ryull Yang.
Lim said he would reply to Dr Teng today.
Jason ANG comments: Lim Guan Eng more than above he is stupid, bullshit and trying to make movie by his own.
PENANG: Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng is naive, ignorant or merely playing politics, says Gerakan.
Its vice-president Datuk Dr Teng Hock Nan said that Lim seemed to be asking questions through the media for answers which he could easily get from his officers, reports, documents and briefings.
“I am saying he is naive because all the questions he has been asking can be easily obtained because he has access to all the information,” he told a press conference yesterday.
Dr Teng said this showed that Lim was not ready to take on responsibility as a chief minister.
“I do not know whether to call him Chief Minister or just Lim Guan Eng,” he said.
Dr Teng, who is a former state executive councillor, also hit out at Lim for asking him and former chief minister Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon to apologise to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi for misleading the latter on the proposed RM25bil Penang Global City Centre (PGCC) project.
Lim had said that Abdullah was invited to launch the proposed project last year when the Penang local authorities had yet to approve the project.
Dr Teng said he was appalled that Lim had made such baseless statements.
“The Prime Minister was fully aware during the soft launch that the local authorities had yet to approve the planning permit.
“That was why the Prime Minister requested the state government to facilitate the process,” he said, adding that the project was proposed on private land owned by the Penang Turf Club.

BN Component Parties 'Like Beggars', Says Keng Yaik
BN Component Parties 'Like Beggars', Says Keng Yaik

Kong See Hoh, The Sun
PETALING JAYA (May 12, 2008): Gerakan adviser Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik has likened MCA, Gerakan and MIC to "beggars" in the Barisan Nasional (BN) as the coalition did not treat its component parties equitably.
Criticising the lack of equitability in BN, Lim stressed that although the constitution guarantees the special rights of the Malays, it also safeguards the rights of non-Malays.
He said he believed that the people, who had indicated in the recent general election their desire for multi-racial parties to work together, would also want the BN to become a multi-racial political set-up which treats all people equitably.
Lim said this in an interview with Sin Chew Daily in which he gave his views on the new political order in the country and the shape of things to come.
The former Gerakan president and former Energy, Water and Communications Minister predicted that Umno-led BN's model of cooperation will be discarded by the people one day.
He also foresaw that the coalition will change the way it operates given another two general elections.
He felt that under such circumstances, race-based parties like Umno, MCA and MIC will have to disband if BN goes multi-racial.
He said over-emphasis on cooperation among race-based parties will not make the people comfortable.
The people not only hope to see BN become a coalition of multi-racial parties but also want BN to play roles that reflect its multi-racial characteristics.
Lim pointed out that 39 years after the May 13, 1969, riots, the people have seen through the domination of a race-based party.
He said the fact that there was no repeat of the (May 13) bloodshed when the Opposition won big this time around showed the maturity of the people.
He said although Gerakan espouses political multi-racialism, it suffered a major setback in the general election mainly because its candidates were fielded in non-Malay-majority constituencies.
"Why were the non-Malays angry with BN? (It's) Because of the arrogance of Umno, the dominant party in BN. Many people also felt uneasy with the racist remarks made by Umno leaders. These had also caused all BN component parties to suffer in the polls."
He believed that if BN takes the multi-racial path, at least Umno leaders would be more careful with what they say in the future.

连中文路牌你只做作
连中文路牌你只做作
连中文路牌你只做作 二零零八年五月十三日 下午三时四分
文：杨善勇
第12届大选之前，行动党的政治动作和政治承诺一样多。除了高调倡导地方直选，如果大家并不健忘，应该知道曾有罗兴强、黄伟益、刘敬亿、杨顺兴有计划地翻炒设立中文路牌的课题。《光华日报》并有四人的合照，七手八脚指指点点一番。
2007年6月23日行动党社青团甚至擅自在丹绒市区加设七个中文路牌，不到24小时后宣告“寿终正寝”，一夜之间全部消失。前任槟州地方政府委员会主席丁福南医生当时解释，这是因为此举抵触《地方政府法令》条文。
经此变化，2007年6月29日槟州社青团团长杨顺兴律师乃在行动党总部召开记者会，希冀槟州首席部长许子根博士开拓视野，认清现代政局，“增设中文路牌绝非挑起种族情绪”云云。
大选之后，中文路牌何去何从？凭靠“再转变，投火箭”中选彭加兰哥打新科州议员的刘敬亿接受报章专访大派定心丸，老神在在地表示“肯定会兑现中文路牌的承诺”。话虽如此，什么时候落实造建，如今似乎也没有一个官方的定案。
所幸垄尾州议员杨顺兴现在人在朝中，深受秘书长和高层器重，很查卡利亚地一人身兼市议员二职；相信在他的鼎力相助之下，100天蜜月期之内，不仅槟城路牌将有中文露面，五州民联政府属下各大机关也将逐步刻上四语并现的告示。
可惜眼前消息传来，中文路牌只限丹绒。眼见版图缩小，许博士或者丁医生大可很黄泉安地到前往韩江中学公开演唱邓丽君名曲〈你怎么说〉，监督这些权力新贵如何很CAT（Commitment、Accountability、Transparency）地落实当初的信誓旦旦：
“我没忘记你忘记我/连路牌你只做作/证明你一切都是在骗我/看今天你怎么说/你说过不会辜负我/一讲就是五月多/六十多个日子不好过/你心里根本没有我/把我的路牌还给我”

做人不能太DAP
做人不能太DAP，这是近来大马华语网络的新词汇。DAP的新贵口口声声说石墩路段是州政府的，他们有理也（应该）有法的去拆除。
话说好听，但我看来看去就是不明白，为什么拆石墩的人、反抗的人、抗议的人都是民间人物／居民。DAP不是雪州政府成员吗？一纸令下，Kajang市议会就得call齐人马去做工了。前朝Mr. Khir几威风，要拆就拆，那轮到你说多多。不讲这过气州务大臣，就算是前巴生市议员Dr.Z，谁敢与他争吃，下场就有如那sate屋般，没两下子就被铲平了。
但，我们的DAP EXCO们，不去运用权力去维护法纪的为人民服务，却反而要民间去替政府卖命，去冒生命危险？这是那劳子的政府阿？是新版的DAP BOLEH？还是DAP style的当家不当权。我看这则是马来西亚的再版台湾民进党。
好了，别口水化这话题，有话直说。让我来尝试分析看看。
如果1：如果路是州政府管辖的，easyjob啦，给封official letter去kajang市议会。然后吩咐皇冠城居民说：州政府是遵守法律的，我们自有安排，你们居民别去做些危险或违反法律的事，坐在家等消息，有戏看时会传呼你们。老人小孩更不能参与。
但，看来这些DAP政府成员并没有替居民的人生安全着想，不但没做好政府应分做的事，反而“交给”及鼓动那些的居民去自行妄为，把责任都统统推卸了。这又是那劳字的负责任政府，那劳子的负责任exco？
当然，可能还有更DAP的：就是用苦肉计，先搞大它，弄大它，当有人受伤了，然后才出王牌，出动执法小组开路，再作法律诉讼，斩草除根，作最后赢家。如是，那么恭喜你，马来西亚人，特别是皇冠城居民，你真是三生有幸。
如果２：架设路是大道公司的，或者路是州政府管辖的，但却为一些条约所限制。Sorrylah皇冠城居民，节哀顺变。虽然这可能是不平等条约，但条约就是条约，得尊重，要更改也让州政府出面出马，因为这就是政府的责任，无论如何也轮不到居民们自己动手，而这也是为他们的人生安全着想。
但，DAP般EXCO们／议员们，不但没表现出应有的负责态度，反而鼓动居民去对抗，置他人安全于不顾，更不去解释实情真相。让国阵继续背上违背民意的罪名，占据民意道德高点。如是，那这等同欺骗人民，以人民生命安全来捞取廉价政治宣传，可真令人发指了。而我，也要再一次，恭喜你，马来西亚人，特别是皇冠城居民。
如果是在野，那么激烈／误导／煽动的伎俩，那还可以找到解释（认同与否是另一话）。因为没有其它更有力的方法。但，当已成为一个执政党，执政权已有，那么以上的动作理应不再出现。更何况，据说，他们还有法律上的支持（声称拥有道路管理权)。我找不到任何理由解释他们在皇冠城事件上的作为，除了说DAP是个不合格及不负责任的州执政党。
说了那么多，有人可能又要说话了：为什么么针对DAP？为什么没去讲更烂的国阵，为什么不去惹公正党或Khalid？搞针对啊？？？又是国阵枪手……呵呵，做人不能太DAP。
但，不晓得如果有人提议要中央政府／或州政府用钱去买下／赔偿大道公司，DAP们会否答应？
呵呵，DAP那么清高，那会同意用全州或全国人民的钱来买或赔偿。DAP又那会用米换番薯了，用全国米来换槟城番薯也不干，DAP又那会用全州／国的米来换这条只会惠及一个地区的人的木薯了。
但DAP boleh嘛，什么事都可以发生的。
其实，现在的重点可是：
１. DAP忽视责任，漠视居民生命安全。他们的念头可能对，但却“但求政治目的而不择手段”的以人民生命安全来做代价。
２. 不说政党或政治人物，就算一个负责任的人，也知道去如何保护人民安全，而不是去煽动人们情绪去干些危险的事。就算警察无理／非法，他们不只不能带头去挑战，还得劝告人民去以更佳更好的管道去争取，如法律诉讼。
如果警察真的像野兽般，那么那些煽动人民去与赤手空拳面对“野兽”的人，只能说野兽不如。因为我们这里不是极权国，法院如何说也还有一些公正，就算要硬硬说法院无公正，那么也等法院判了才说吧，别散播暴力论。看到那些居民带老携幼的出动，而DAP竟然不知责任所在。再看到一些小孩似乎受伤的照片，真是令人感叹。难道DAP是要灌输这样的思想给小孩？
３.说警察偏帮。那更是模糊及误导人民。如果你DAP州政府有十足把握／证据，那么又何必在意一时之争？不如让这些警察／大道公司一错再错，再去到法院把他们“一窝熟”。把BN说到如能只手遮天、无法无天，更是愚民政策。如法院不公，把你的证据公诸于世，世人有眼的，能辨是非。DAP应该去做好榜样，向世人证明理之所归，或至少让人民看到你们有尝试以正确途径去为民请命，而不是像这般搞煽动，但对事情却毫无帮助。
４.作为雪州政府，有正确法律／执法队伍不用，而鼓动人民。再怎么说也说不去。有人竟然以中央警察干预来辩解地方执法队伍无法有效执行任务。那试问这就能成为鼓动人民的理由？又是个愚民借口？DAP的人就是能人所不能，他们也要普通百姓去达成连州政府地方官员也没能着做到的事。呵呵……看来人民的生命安全在DAP眼里也不外如是。
５. BN对错，大家心里有数，但看来DAP就真能物尽其用，让BN成为所有事情发生的理由。如果有人受伤了，谁会去追究DAP作为煽动居民的责任？如果我们放任DAP而不谴责他，那么他们就会一而再的重施故技，那么，大马版民进党就正式成立了。
６.现在不是什么BN／大道公司／警察对错的问题，而是，DAP作为政府一员，他们有没有表现如政府的作为。如果DAP政府要帮人民，那么请DAP政府以政府的身份及方法来帮，来解决，通过州政府对中央政府或州政府对大道公司的对话／谈判来解决。政府如果不能成功，那么解释／或再不然打官腔的推卸责任，而不是像这般，没有羞耻的漠视法纪／人民安全捞取廉价政治利益。
７. 总之，无论道路拥有权在谁，已不重要，重要的是，管道正确。现在我们看到的是一个不负责任，漠视人民群众安全、野性十足的DAP政府
话说好听，但我看来看去就是不明白，为什么拆石墩的人、反抗的人、抗议的人都是民间人物／居民。DAP不是雪州政府成员吗？一纸令下，Kajang市议会就得call齐人马去做工了。前朝Mr. Khir几威风，要拆就拆，那轮到你说多多。不讲这过气州务大臣，就算是前巴生市议员Dr.Z，谁敢与他争吃，下场就有如那sate屋般，没两下子就被铲平了。

日前行動黨主席卡巴星在國會走廊召開記者會，指霹靂州蘇丹干預人聯州政府，原本坐卡巴星旁的霹州高級行政議員拿督倪可漢，便立即離席，顯然不想被視為贊同者。等到卡巴星結束記者會后，倪可漢竟然另行召開記者會，強調行動黨領導人對霹州蘇丹依然忠心耿耿，並抨擊首相署部長查希企圖挑撥州政府與蘇丹的關係。
查希早前曾針對倪可漢辯稱：「尼查把局長調職的決定是有理由的」而標籤倪氏的言論為「反蘇丹」。倪可漢反駁指查希的言論不正確，澄清只是回應《新海峽時報》記者的詢問而已，不是發文告，因此要求執法當局在《1984年印刷機與出版法令》下調查查希製造「假新聞」。
倪可漢處理此事過程中，引發了幾個有趣的疑問。首先，倪可漢既要討好大臣，又怕得罪蘇丹，自己回應《新海峽時報》記者的詢問的談話，竟然要以「不是文告」來閃避，想要面面俱圓，卻左右碰壁。結果狗急跳牆，倪氏竟然抬出《1984年印刷機與出版法令》來針對查希。
《1984年印刷機與出版法令》是什么東西？難道倪氏忘記了行動黨的大選宣言是要廢除此法嗎？難道倪氏沒聽聞大選前51個團體聯署的《2008年大選之人權訴求》也要求廢除此法？難道倪氏漠視該黨秘書長林冠英于1994年因處理未成年少女的「性醜聞」事件，被政府以《1984年印刷機與出版法令》及《煽動法令》檢控而受牢獄之災？
難道倪氏不知道「被壓迫人民大聯盟」(JERIT)強烈要求廢除迫害人民的《1984年印刷機與出版法令》？難道倪氏不知道行動黨曾經于2007年連同93個團體聯署「五一勞動節宣言」要求廢除壓迫和歧視人民的《1984年印刷機與出版法令》？難道倪氏不知道「獨立新聞中心」也敦促政府，若有誠意推動新聞自由，應立即廢除《1984年印刷機與出版法令》？難道倪氏不知道在野黨領袖旺阿茲莎剛發表聲明促請政府廢除《1984年印刷機與出版法令》？難道倪氏當林吉祥透明，無視這名領袖幾十年來無數次疾呼廢除所有惡法，包括《1984年出版與印刷機法令》？阿喲喲！
拿督倪可漢，做人不要太BN好嗎？308大海嘯衝來許多拿督，但未捲走惡法，拉惹柏特拉被引用《煽動法令》提控證明政改尚未成功，同胞尚需肚懶！

People like humane decisions on Muslim converts, says Koh
People like humane decisions on Muslim converts, says Koh
PETALING JAYA: The courts should be “humane” when presiding over cases of Muslim converts wanting to renounce Islam and embracing their original faith, Gerakan acting president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon said.
He said the people would be more respectful to all great religions if such liberal decision were made towards those who sought redress over their faith.
“Such cases seeking their choice of religion are few and as such there should not be any fear with regard to the erosion of the Islamic faith,” he said.
Dr Koh was asked to comment on the Penang Syariah High Court’s decision to allow an application by Muslim convert Siti Fatimah Tan Abdullah, 39, to renounce Islam and revert to her original faith.
The decision by Perlis Syariah Court chief judge Othman Ibrahim, who presided over the case when he was based in Penang earlier, makes this the first of its kind in the country where a living Muslim convert is allowed to renounce Islam since the Syariah Court Civil Procedure (State of Penang) Enactment 2004 came into force on Jan 1, 2006.
MCA Legal Bureau chairman Datuk Leong Tang Chong said it was the party’s position that a Muslim convert be allowed to renounce Islam when the marriage to a Muslim had ended.
“We also urge that other converts in similar circumstances be allowed to come out of Islam,” he said in a statement here yesterday.
He said the decision was in line with Article 11(1) of the Federal Constitution which guaranteed freedom of religion to every Malaysian.
Regarding children who had been unilaterally converted to Islam without the other parent’s knowledge and permission, he said the MCA stressed that their religion must be decided by both parents.
“In such a case where the child’s religion remains in dispute, his or her faith must remain as status quo until he or she reaches 18 years old, after which the child will decide,” he said.
PETALING JAYA: The courts should be “humane” when presiding over cases of Muslim converts wanting to renounce Islam and embracing their original faith, Gerakan acting president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon said.
He said the people would be more respectful to all great religions if such liberal decision were made towards those who sought redress over their faith.

劉天送展示接獲民政黨的美郭書宣佈退黨。（圖：星洲日報）
劉天送展示接獲民政黨的美郭書宣佈退黨。（圖：星洲日報）
（霹靂‧太平）寧舍民政黨籍堅拒辭卸官職的太平市議員劉天送重申，為人民服務較政黨立場更為重要。
他不認同一種觀點指不擔任市議員職也同樣能順暢服務，因為只有擔任某種層次的官方職位，才可以與各相關部門負責領導層作直接接觸，落實下情上達迅速反映民意。
他堅稱本身並非戀棧市議員官職，畢竟擔任市議員並非有利可圖，只不過是一種為民服務的抱負及宣誓就任后的使命感。
他週三（7日）針對正式退出民政黨的決定，在新聞發佈會上如是表態。
他說，政黨組織口口聲聲指示黨員為民服務，卻為了黨本身的立場而指示黨員馬上停止這類服務，否則紀律行動對付，未免令人有講一套做一套的感覺，人民利益肯定遭受忽略也說不過去。
他證實本身於1992年在前民政高層領袖郭洙鎮的勸導感召下，加入民政的政治服務，之前他歷任眾多非政府組織領導人，從不同崗位服務社會，包括擔任太平智障學院主席10餘年至今。
不後悔犧牲赴歐考察良機
他說，加入民政後他擔任甘文丁律分部主席長達13年，獲推薦出任太平市議員至今4年余，新一任是2008年才開始不久。
他透露，退黨的抉擇也令他犧牲了獲選赴歐洲考察政治運動的良機，他並不言悔，因為服務人群依然是他基本信仰與目標。
他告知，5月5日才收到民政霹州秘書馬袖強的公函，在5月2日寄發，限他在5天內即本月7日前，選擇辭卸市議員職或面對立即的紀律行動，他在本月6日作出決定，寧可辭卸黨職並退黨，並且同日呈函民政中央及州領導層宣佈這項決定。
他否認這次堅拒辭卸市議員職及最後退黨的取決，是受到任何人士的影響或阻撓，純粹是他個人的抉擇。

Malasyia raise the retirement age to 58, a good step ?
I think the retired age should even raise to 65 , today medical technology is very much better than the past, in past average human age is around 65, chinese believed human is rarely reach 60. However Malaysia human life have extent to average 73 and 72 now, if the particular person retired at 55, and stay at home, this is really a wastage of their experience and know how. In singapore this issue have brought out must earlier. We can't deny that Singapore government is must sensitive to global environment comparing with Malaysia. however malaysia have taking a good step to looking at this issue, this is a good progress.
As for myself , retire never happen in my life dictionary, i not think i will retired, because working still is kind of enjoyment.

I think all of us have mum and today at least must show some appreciation to your mum as well as your wife .
民联莫把社会政策当糖果 作者／傅向红专栏
民联莫把社会政策当糖果 作者／傅向红专栏
再过几天，刚好是人民联盟（民联）在中、北部几个州属执政满两个月。
过去，我们很容易不信任政府，因为国阵领导的政府，其施政经常缺乏透明。比如，到底花了多少钱去弄一个太空旅游计划，国阵一直含糊其辞，不清不楚。还好现在国会终于可以直播，而我们的科学技术与创新部长玛希慕昨天也终于公开承认，一共花了马币四千万元，而非传闻中的上亿元。当然这个数目是否属实，还需要进一步调查，而不是就此接受官员口头答案而已。
过去，我们也很难想象，一个好政府到底可以好到什么程度？如何可以把事情做好？
我们很多人对政府的印象，是不断制造各种管道，向人民口袋挖钱，比如建更多收费的道路、提高大道的收费、提高商用车司机体检费用、向医疗院所重新征取注册费用等等。
上个月，霹雳州政府宣布将部分新村地契转为永久地契、槟城州政府宣布向学校、非营利组织象征式征收一元门牌税，就为我们打开了一些新的想象。
这几天，民联执政的几个州属，纷纷表态承诺提升劳工福利。相关官员，都表示将研究马币1500元的最低薪金保障及90天产假的福利方案。这是国阵政府过去不敢承诺，大部分人民也不太敢梦想的，但是民联却再次为我们打开想象。
民联对劳工福利的支持，是改善生活品质的好开始，但是身为选民、公民，我们不能够仅仅满足于各种社会政策的口号而已。其实90天产假，过去马华公会和民政党妇女组也曾经提出，但就是只闻楼梯响而已，根本就没有研究报告，也没有政策白皮书，告诉我们实施细节。
随口开支票重复国阵老毛病
对于一个才上台不到60天的州政府，如果我们像要求旧政府一样，要求他们马上交出政策白皮书和实施细节，或许过于苛刻。但是，如果我们说民联经常没有挑选正确的时机，公布或承诺这些政策，我想这么说，并不会是一个过分苛刻的质疑，反而是一个合理的批评。
如果对一些政策还没有充分把握，或还未掌握足够资料，那么民联的个别党员及其所执政的州政府，如果随口开支票，将会重复国阵政府经常只说不做的老毛病。
如果说新政府或许因为缺乏经验，而无法掌握恰当的时机公布恰当的政策，那么我们可以稍微理解和谅解。但是除了时机以外，现有民联提出的各种社会政策，似乎也只着眼于细部的改革，缺乏宏观的目标和方向。
比如最低薪资保障和90天产假，民联官员并没有详细说明，它仅仅适用于民联执政的州属，即州政府公务员身上，还是适用于全国劳工。如果是后者，那么这些社会政策就不仅仅是州政府事务而已，而应该提呈至国会辩论。
民联也应该告诉我们，这些政策跟宏观的国家发展目标和方向有何关联？比如说，如果有了最低薪资保障，我们国家的经济将如何转型、产业将如何升级？这个最低薪资保障和90天产假，是不是符合宏观的产业和经济政策的方向？如果雇主们强烈反弹，联结各种商业社团向国会施压，民联到底有何对策？
民联政府大概需要多少时间？多少人力完成相关的政策研究？研究报告何时出炉？
新想象可变成失望的起点
民联虽然为我们打开了很多可能的想象，但是如果没有进一步提供落实相关政策的时间表或实施细则，那么难免让人觉得民联跟国阵一样在抛糖果，这些新的想象，很可能很快会变成选民失望的起点。
比如免费水供政策。这个政策让人诟病，除了引起环保的疑虑，还包括政策考虑不周。部分小量用水的家庭用户，比如共管公寓用户，因为缺乏分层水表，根本享受不到这项优惠。要同时减轻贫穷户的水费支出和环保压力，那么免费水供肯定是下下策。向水资源高用量户（比如工厂、购物中心等）征收水资源税务，才更为实际，并指定该税务只能用于改善环保和改善贫穷户的生活水平。免费水供不仅显示雪州州政府政策缺乏手段，也显示它缺乏清楚的政策目标。
另外一个缺乏实施策略的政策，就是降低非营利组织门牌税的政策。所谓减低门牌税，到底是自动更新制度，还是重新登记制度，槟州州政府也缺乏明确清楚的行政程序说明。
这种种问题，在政策初期引起兴奋后，如果没有妥善处理，将会引发后期的不满与失望。它让选民看到民联和国阵好似在比烂，双方都在等对方犯错，而不是主动做得比对方更好。对民主进程来说，这不是太好的事，它很容易让选民们对政党轮替失去信心。
相较于国阵，民联的团队较为松散。对于许多惠民的政策，民联如果缺乏实施策略和政策目标，并放任部分州政府官员或个别党员，争相利用媒体公布未经研究和讨论的政策，将之当作向选民邀功的工具和糖果，那么民联很快会自食其果。
社会政策的实施策略及公布政策的时机，可以让选民看出政党和政府（不管是国阵还是民联）能力及诚意。只有诚意，没有能力，会让人觉得那些社会政策只是口号或工具而已。
3月8日以后，非政府组织与其急于参与几个州属的民联政府会议，不如花实在功夫，参考国外经验，同时了解国内实况，才能做好政策研究，而不是跟在民联政权尾巴等待权力到手。

Press Release by YBhg Dato' Dr Teng Hock Nan
Former Penang State Exco Member in charge of Local Government
THE PROPOSED PGCC PROJECT:
PREVIOUS STATE GOVERNMENT DID NOT APPROVE AS YET
PRESENT GOVERNMENT CAN DECIDE AND IMPOSE LEVIES
It must be emphasised that the application for planning permission by the developer of the proposed Penang Global City Centre (PGCC) project has not yet been approved by the Penang Island Municipal Council (MPPP) under the previous state government as of 8 March 2008.
The previous state government has also not made any decision as yet on whether and how much premiums or charges were to be levied on the developer relating to the proposed PGCC project.
The formulation of the structure plan, which made provisions on zoning of development for the whole state, followed the proper provisions and procedure for structure plan under the Town and Country Planning Act. Public exhibitions and hearings were held in 2006 - 2007 on the draft structure plan which was finalised and gazetted in June 2007.
In this respect, the structure plan did not specify the type (residential or commercial or "mixed") and the scale (density, plot ratio, etc) of "new development" zoned on that site.
The MPPP can still decide whether to reject or approve any development proposal, including the type and the scale. It is also up to the State Planning Committee chaired by the Chief Minister to provide guidance.
Therefore, since no decision has been made as yet, it is up to the new state government and the MPPP to make whatever decision that they think suitable with respect to the site and any development proposal, including whatever charges to be imposed.

前槟州政府掌管地方政府行政议员
前槟州政府掌管地方政府行政议员
拿督丁福南医生文告
建议中的槟城环球城中城计划：
前政府根本未曾通过有关计划
新政府可自行决定及征稅多寡
我们必须重申，直至2008年3月8日为止，在前州政府领导下的槟岛市政局未曾批准槟城环城中城发展商対此计划的图测申请。
因此，更甭谈到是否要向有关发展商対此计划征稅，或要征收多少地稅。其实在城市及乡村规划法令下，结构大蓝图中的正确条款及程序，已为全槟的土地发展划分，制定了特定的条文。当局也在2006年至2007年期间，针対结构大蓝图草案，举办了多次的公众展览会及听证会，並在2007年6月在宪法上公布。
有鉴於此，结构大蓝图並未対该地点的"新发展"订下任何其类別（住宅、商业或"混合" ）及比例（密度、地段划分等）。
槟岛市政局还是可以决定是否要批准或否决有关发展计划的建议书，包括其种类及比例。通过与否也是听由以首席部长所领导的州规划委员会的指示。
既然前朝政府之前根本就未曾対该项计划作过任何定案，那麽，要在该地点进行任何发展计划，完全在於新政府及槟岛市政局的决定，他们可以决定任何他们认为适合的计划，包括要征收多少地稅。

黄伟益不要解散中文
黄伟益不要解散中文
二零零八年五月七日 下午二时二十三分
文：杨善勇
因为不满槟州国州议员夫人协会（PBT）自行解散之事，5月4日槟州首席部长政治秘书黄伟益代写一封〈致潘斯里〉的回函。通篇放眼尽是蹩脚中文，牵涉的虽然无关"三项法律及道德问题"，我们有理由担心我邦三代中文水平江河日下。
****** 罪狀（一）********
全文刊在《光华》A4版的信笺，开头就是"致潘斯里"，不仅唐突，而且混淆。不明内情的读者一读，谁知道所致潘斯里的哪个潘斯里？我不能明白黄伟益为何不愿明白称呼"潘斯里徐嘉平夫人台鉴"。
****** 罪狀（二）********
尔后一段"我受到指示，以针对妳志日2008年5月1日（正式收信日期为5月2日），邀请首席部长就上述事件公开辩论的公函作出回复"，显然是直译的英式句子。
"在这里需要提醒的是"，按照比较像样的中文书写习惯，应该是这样的："您2008年5月1日来函，经在5月2日收到。首席部长就您诚邀公开辩论事项，嘱我回信予您"。
****** 罪狀（三）********
再如"基于解散槟州国州议员夫人协会及移交总值35万令吉款项给正副部长夫人协会的作法"，其实只需直指"解散槟州国州议员夫人协会且移交总值35万令吉款项给正副部长夫人协会"；同例很多，余不一一。
黄伟益或许拥有很好的理由，甚至握有权力把信里的中文解散成眼前这个样子；为了中文在槟州得到健全发展，我们吁请他在做出任何澄清之前，应该严正看待公函行文的格式和礼仪。
****** 罪狀（四）********
黄伟益"需知，无法遵从中文规范是很严重的行为。"例如，晚辈上书长者弃"您"不用，口口声声以平辈的"妳"回应，毕竟也是110%有违中华文化的不道德行为。
"为了正确地解决这个问题"，我们准备优先聆听马大中文系出身的黄伟益针对上述意见有何解释。
与此同时，希冀黄伟益日后下笔"敬启"之前，不妨参考董桥的〈浏览这样的中英文〉或者联络书局邮购明报出版董君名作《英华沉浮录》十册，不让典雅的中文desperate得岂有此理。

尔后一段"我受到指示，以针对妳志日2008年5月1日（正式收信日期为5月2日），邀请首席部长就上述事件公开辩论的公函作出回复"，显然是直译的英式句子。
"在这里需要提醒的是"，按照比较像样的中文书写习惯，应该是这样的："您2008年5月1日来函，经在5月2日收到。首席部长就您诚邀公开辩论事项，嘱我回信予您"。
****** 罪狀（三）********
再如"基于解散槟州国州议员夫人协会及移交总值35万令吉款项给正副部长夫人协会的作法"，其实只需直指"解散槟州国州议员夫人协会且移交总值35万令吉款项给正副部长夫人协会"；同例很多，余不一一。
黄伟益或许拥有很好的理由，甚至握有权力把信里的中文解散成眼前这个样子；为了中文在槟州得到健全发展，我们吁请他在做出任何澄清之前，应该严正看待公函行文的格式和礼仪。
****** 罪狀（四）********
黄伟益"需知，无法遵从中文规范是很严重的行为。"例如，晚辈上书长者弃"您"不用，口口声声以平辈的"妳"回应，毕竟也是110%有违中华文化的不道德行为。
"为了正确地解决这个问题"，我们准备优先聆听马大中文系出身的黄伟益针对上述意见有何解释。
与此同时，希冀黄伟益日后下笔"敬启"之前，不妨参考董桥的〈浏览这样的中英文〉或者联络书局邮购明报出版董君名作《英华沉浮录》十册，不让典雅的中文desperate得岂有此理。

看到夺权多过服务人民
是的，大马政治变天，国家逐渐迈向两党制。对大家是否有重大影响，还言之过早。
国阵还是一样，检讨与否让人看不透。诚意也不足，方向还未明朗，言之过早~
民联（前称民盟）积极维护得来不易的4州政府，看得出些许诚意，实际与否，言之过早~
反而，我对安华的举动和想法也很大的回响。
他，在大选变天后，就好像一只很饿很饿的鳄鱼。。一直一直在发表欲执政或简称"我要做首相"。
1）民联才开始结盟，注册细节、章程、logo也没有定夺就匆忙发布若执政或让太太也是国会先今反对党领袖当首相。连民联领袖都回复安华言论称这是他的看法。
2）只看到为权斗争。没有目的，执政就只想做首相。
3）没有实际规划如何造福人民，如何为国家付出，如何管理国家，还是只想做首相。
4）没原则，在朝时做一套，在野时却撒野的说"我当时只是跟着国阵的政策做事"言论。
对我而言，不管是国阵或民联在未来执政，最重要的还是如何建设国家，有了国，有了家，一切安好。

网络打压战开始！？
网络打压战开始！？
Chris Huong | 5月7日 下午3点19分
马来西亚部落客和霸权的战争开始了。
我不明白的是，为何要以煽动法令逮捕拉惹？如果副首相没有罪，那么，为什么不拿出证据反驳他？如果你可以证明清白，人民怎么会被煽动？公道不只在人心，也在我们的法律上。
虽然我不是律师但也知道，这种案件应该属于诽谤、恶意中伤和破坏名誉，怎么会是煽动罪名？到底，“拉惹“煽动了什么？
如果当事人证明没有罪，在案件结束后，大可以提控拉惹恶意中伤我们的副首相。如今，把拉惹以煽动罪名控上法庭，此地无银三百两，不是默认了自己有罪吗？
我知道可能会有那么一天，没想到这么快。
各位部落客们，你们还敢畅所欲言吗？我们是否真的要向强权低头？

女人的麻烦是男人

身为女人，大概没有不討厌男人恶毒地形容女人的一句话："唯女子与小人难养也"。2500多年前，孔老夫子说这话的时候，一定也没想到此话会流传数千年，而且还成了他鄙视女人的最有力的证据。
2500多年后的今天，一个曾经强调要尊重女性代表及声音的反对党上台执政后，也一样有意无意地流露出它下意识鄙视女人及把女人当作权力附庸的心態，这心態就反映在刚刚取得檳州政权的新执政团队与前檳州国州议员夫人协会的女人们之间的口水战上。
我之所以把这场风波形容为口水战，实在是因为不管最后的结果是甚么，这都將会是一场各说各话，永远搞不清谁是谁非的男人与女人之间的战爭，但偏偏引起这场战爭的，却是男人与男人之间的权力之爭。
我们今天姑且不论该协会的夫人有没有权力解散该协会，或她们在处理这件事情上有任何道德上的小暇疵，但从檳首长林冠英的谈话，不难看出"冠英之意不在女"，而在於这些夫人背后，曾经掌握大权的男人们所代表的旧政权。
前檳州国州议员夫人协会的女人们或许正苦恼著新执政团队给她们扣上各种帽子，不过她们也应该瞭解，给她们带来麻烦的，正是她们自己的男人们。这些夫人过去曾因为她们的男人而享有其它女人所没有的待遇和命运，今天就得承受因为男人大权旁落后而被別人质疑的难处。
不过，这整件事情最有趣的是，这些夫人在面对新执政团队质疑时的表现，彻底顛覆了民眾对夫人们的传统印象，特別是当前首长夫人徐嘉平公开挑战现任首长出来辩论时，著实让人大吃一惊。
徐嘉平担任了 18年的首长夫人，给人的印象永远是这么平凡、朴实，甚至安静得让人感觉不到她的存在。也因为这样，当这位林冠英口中的"女流之辈"被人质疑其操守时，並没有躲在她男人的背后，反而自己跳出来反驳对方，这才是让人惊嘆的地方。
过去，我们都太习惯从父权社会的角度看问题，所以才会有"她是女流之辈，可能不瞭解章程"或"请別为难这位可怜的妇人"之类的话脱口而出，然而说这话的人可能不知道，他口中这位"可怜的妇人"不但教养好，而且还是那个有可能成为美国第一位女性总统的希拉里的学妹。
试想想，如果布什总统把他的前任总统克林顿的夫人希拉里形容为"女流之辈"或"可怜的妇人"加以奚落一番，摆在他眼前的將会是怎样的一场战爭？所以我说啊，林冠英应该庆幸自己不是生长在美国，至於徐嘉平，也只能怨嘆当初不该让自己的男人搞政治。

蔡崇安：安华勿鼓吹跳槽文化
蔡崇安：安华勿鼓吹跳槽文化
民政党中央宣传局主任蔡崇安针对拉菲达提出新生代以马来西亚人自居，拒绝种族主义的言论，慕尤丁建议政府应固定拔款给华、淡小及希山慕丁就举剑事件道歉等发表文告表示欢迎。
他强调，本届大选结果激发了国阵与民盟各成员党开始放棄以种族的观点和种族政治手段，改为以非种族主义和全民思想来争取民心，为民谋福利，这正是各族人民所盼望达到的成果，也正是民政党建党以来所追求的目标。
民政党希望这种非种族，非极端宗教性和民主开明的良性竞争能成为马来西亚的新政治文化和格局，长期维持发展下去，使我国迈向更民主，更先进的方向发展。
基于这个原则，我们也吁请安华及一些民盟领袖停止鼓动政治跳槽文化和行为，因为这是违反民主选举的原则和选民的意愿，也不利民主政治的发展。
他说，本届大选出现的新政治格局，也是提醒国阵和民盟內一些以单一种族或单一宗教为主的政党，应该开始逐步改変为多元种族的政党，多元宗教並以多元的思想做为主导，以便自己在新的政治格局下能继续生存和发挥作用。
同样的，各种以单一种族，单一文化，单一宗教为主的民间团体的领导人，也以多元的思维来看待和处理国家和社会问题，参于促进多元思想民主，开明，先进社会的发展。
他说，发展教育，培养人才和爱国思想，是国家发展社会进步的一项最重要的人力资源。这是不分种族、语言和文化源流的。
“因此，我们建议国阵和民盟所执政的中央以及各州政府，除了继续发展国中，国小，定期定额拨款华，淡小外，也应定期定额拨款给全国60所独中以及一些非营利的民办教育，文化和机構，并承认独中文凭，以肯定和鼓劢各族民间参于国家培养人力资源的努力。”

Raja Petra claims trial for sedition (update 4)
Raja Petra claims trial for sedition (update 4)
KUALA LUMPUR: Raja Petra Kamaruddin, the editor of news portal Malaysia Today, claimed trial at the PJ Sessions Court to publishing a seditious article on April 25.
He was charged under Section 4(1)(c) of the Sedition Act 1948.
Nine paragraphs in his article titled "Let’s send the Altantuya murderers to hell" were found to be seditious.
The article was posted on his website on April 25.
The court set his bail at RM5,000.
Raja Petra did not post bail. His wife Marina Lee Abdullah said he is hoping to raise the money through his news portal.
As of 2.30pm Tuesday, he was still in lockup at the PJ sessions court.
Earlier Tuesday, Raja Petra arrived at the magistrates’ court in the Kuala Lumpur Court Complex in Jalan Duta at 9.06am.
He was later instructed to go to the PJ Sessions Court to be charged.
A crowd of about a hundred people were gathered at the Jalan Duta court. Among them were bloggers and Opposition MPs including Salahuddin Ayub (Kubang Kerian), Datuk Kamarul Baharin Abbas (Teluk Kemang) and Nurul Izzah Anwar (Lembah Pantai).
At 2pm Tuesday, businessman Syed Akbar Ali was also charged under Section 4(1)(c) of the Sedition Act 1948 at a sessions court here for posting a comment on Raja Petra's site on June 5, 2007.
The ex-banker, aged 48, posted the RM3,000 bail set by the court.
Hearing for the submissions whether the charge was groundless is set for June 10.

民青赞翁诗杰建议务实
民青赞翁诗杰建议务实
mah siew keong另一方面，针对同一个议题，民政党青年团长马袖强（左图）今天发表文告，欢迎翁诗杰要马华接受更多元种族形象和做法的建议，同时形容这是一项大胆和务实的动作。
他也希望其他国阵成员党能够跟进，这样才能让国阵在未来的国家政局中保持举足轻重的角色。
他指出，世界现已没有疆界，而且刚过去的大选显示，跨族群的投票行为越来越显著，根据最近的调查，70%选民认为国阵成员党应该整合为一个多元种族政党。
“我们应该听从人民的意见。民青团欢迎翁诗杰要马华采取多元种族的形象。民青团相信，若所有政党接受这种做法，它将是设立一个多元种族的国阵政党的第一步。”

蔡细历建议12国阵成员党结盟
蔡细历建议12国阵成员党结盟
形成“内部两线制”制衡巫统
5月6日 傍晚6点58分
chua soi lek interview 020408 02随着国阵在大选面对重大挫折，不少国阵成员党领袖纷纷怪责巫统过于傲慢自大导致惨败，马华前副总会长蔡细历今日提出一项“国阵内部两线制”建议，促马华考虑与其他11个以非马来人为主的国阵成员党结盟，方能壮大和巫统谈判的力量。
蔡细历认为，马华、民政、印度国大党等12个国阵成员党若连成一线，在谈判时比起目前个别的单薄力量，将能更有效地代表非马来选民，同时在国阵内部形成一股强而有力的制衡力量，争取与巫统平起平坐。
蔡细历这项建议也与民政党顾问林敬益相呼应，后者日前接受《当今大马》专访时倡议国阵的14个成员党整合起来，让国阵转型为一个多元种族政党；但若那不成，则13个成员则应该融合为一，以抗衡巫统。
各维持党性，会议桌两线谈判
barisan nasional不过，蔡细认为，目前要马华与其他成员党合并还不是时候，但可以尝试与其他非马来人为主的成员党结盟，而巫统可以和砂劳越土著保守党结盟，以“两线制”来推进国阵的全民议程。
他进一步解释，“各成员党依然维持各自党性，基本上我们还是独立个体，但在会议桌上，我们是以两个阵线来进行讨论和谈判，确保结果对马来人和非马来人都是公平的”。
结盟非分裂国阵威胁马来主权
他今日在文告中指出，上述建议的概念旨于向成员党倡议更有效的合作方式，而不是要分裂国阵组织。
他也强调，这项建议并不会威胁马来主权，也不会分化国阵的势力，相反地能更公平和全面地照顾各族群的需求。
在第12届全国大选，巫统和砂劳越土著保守联合党在国会共赢得93席，其他成员党的胜席总数为47席。
国阵成员党权力悬殊不健康
蔡细历认为，国阵目前共有14个成员党，除了巫统、马华、印度国大党和民政党，其他成员党规模较小，在现实生活里难于有效发挥他们的代表性和角色，对于一个政治联盟来说，若成员党的地位和权力不均悬殊太大是不健康的。
尽管选民在这次大选的票向跨种族，许多人认为种族政治将被瓦解，单元种族的政党也将逐渐消失，但蔡细历坚信单元种族政治还是有存在价值和意义。
“我也曾公开表达我的看法，族群为基的政党最终会否完全消失，目前定论还言之过早。只要宪法规定的马来特权还存在，包括语言、国家宗教、州务大臣必须由马来人或回教徒出任等，巫基政党如巫统的存在地位还是受到维护；同样的，只要华裔族群继续强调母语教育、宗教、神庙，华基政党的角色还不能被否决。”
他说，唯一不同的是，国阵成员党间的合作必须改变，要展现更多元化的作风和处事手法。所有成员党包括马华的斗争大原则，必须以全民利益为出发点。

Jason reply:
First thing i would like to clarify that you have freedom to voice up anytime, the only thing is that do not pretend your are gerakan member lah, for your information my wife family in Penang lah, if you feel hard to cari makan in Penang , maybe because your professional skill is not laku in Penang (Hahha) I from Negeri Sembilan also, my IT in NS also not Laku, hence i have no choice move to Johor, you are very much welcome to Johor, anyway Johor Gerakan still manage to survive, we only losing the Skudai Seat which is Dato Teo Kok Chee, too sad

Tony Pua (DAP) VS Jason ANG (Gerakan) on the Blog
Tony Pua Said
Hi Jason,
I generally don't respond much to comments but i'll make this an exception.
Without a vibrant political organisation, with a large and strong base, it is quite impossible to serve the rakyat both in the short and more so in the long term.
Hence it is critical that I help grow DAP or our ideals, as voted by the rakyat, will just fades over time without the necessary renewal. A healthy political system requires strong political parties (from both sides of the fence), without which democracy will not work, and the people's interest not served.
I also noted that your comments have generally been negative - not that there's anything wrong with that, but taking somethings in the positive and lighthearted spirit might offer less stress on the blood press :-)
Jason ANG Said
Hi Tony, I also Back from Singapore, the only think that make us different is that U joint DAP and I joint Gerakan. U have mentioned that i always comment negative point, but do you know that this is the feeling that DAP leader always accusing our Gerakan leader in negative point ? I hope u can pass my message to you team leader (Lim Guan Eng), do not always complaint people, try to valuating own self first before commenting. This not a matter whether who is the government , the most important is as a politician your first priority is people in Malaysia, not yourself, there is why i not really active in politic, i am IT, i think you know that, ur good friend jeff Ooi are using the blog to shotting our gerakan for how many time? ask him? Gerakan also have IT people OK ? i cannot tahan than i stand up, as jeff Ooi mentioned he want to have IT media political war, i ready for it , u pass this message to him. If he do not perform well as YB i will dig more thing about him and disclose in IT media OK, remember i just a ordinary member of Gerakan, we serve without publicity.

首相訓部落客 報導應平衡
首相訓部落客 報導應平衡
2008年5月4日
（ 吉隆坡3日訊）首相拿督斯里阿都拉對部落客作出訓話，吁請媒體與部落客，在報導汽油和食品價格飆升課題時，應該表現平衡，因為這些報導將對民眾帶來影響。
「我相信， 如果媒體平衡報導，將會有助于問題的解決，因為這應該是政府和媒體，都有責任共同面對的問題，不只是政府而已。」
另外， 他也吁請媒體對國家石油公司一個公平報導，並認為人民「誤解」國油公司賺取暴利而沒用來扶助人民，這些都是錯誤的想法。
他強調， 汽油價格上升是世界趨勢， 不是政府想漲價。「民眾認為國家石油公司盈利非常多，但卻不給汽油更多的津貼，我已說過很多次這不是事實，可總沒人相信。」
首相是在出席大馬新聞協會新聞獎晚宴致詞時說，作為一位媒體，不能只是一味地懂得報導，而忽略媒體應有的倫理守則首相也覺得，一個敬業的記者，不應該胡亂猜測或寫一些無中生有的事情。「如果人民錯誤解讀一些報導，將會使一些問題更加擴大，變得不可收拾。」
因此，他建議媒體應有專線採訪的領域，特別是針對油價飆漲及糧食危機等，避免出現報導失真、揣測性等的報導。
首相也說，我國目前面對嚴重通貨膨脹及能源短缺問題，并呼吁人民改變揮霍陋習。

"让人民看清反对党真面目" 新闻部长：国会续直播 2008/05/04 18:03:54
●南洋商报
（吉隆坡4日讯）新闻部长拿督阿末沙伯里强调，政府将继续让国会直播，以让人民看清反对党的“真面目”。
他说，在国会首次直播就变成“马戏团”后，他曾一度考虑腰斩直播。
“不过，在人民的要求下，我已改变初衷，内阁也决定继续直播国会新闻，好让人民看清反对党议员的真面目，戳破人民以为他们表现很厉害的假象。”
他在接受《每日新闻》星期刊专访时说，上周三国会下议院召开第一次议会即上演朝野议员互相谩骂的事件，犹如“马戏团”，政府（部长或副部长）当时准备回答问题，却没有人要提问，这样的情况若持续下去，将使到人民不再相信国会制度。
冀全程直播国会实况
新闻部长阿末沙伯里希望有朝一日，我国可以希望可以全程直播国会实况。
“我认为，这样做会让人民更信任现有的政府，不过条件是，在问答环节，国会议员必须认真提问。”
不过，他也同时担心，万一电视全程直播国会实况，可能造成国会“全天候大吵”，最后会造成人民讨厌国会和所有从政者。
“他们不但不信任反对党，也会拖累国阵。
“最后我们就会像台湾和韩国人民，认为他们的生活是受大公司所影响的，不是从政者或政府。”

青体部长：电子媒体威力大 部落格是打仗工具 2008/05/04 18:02:06
●南洋商报 独家报道：李晓婷
（关丹4日讯）青年与体育部长拿督依斯迈沙比里指出，对新一代的部长，包括他本身而言，部落格是不可或缺的“打仗工具”。
他说，在这个互联网的时代，身为内阁新部长，他今后的生活将离不开部落格，与部落格唇齿相依。
他承认，国阵在本届大选是输给电子媒体，而国阵也从中吸取了重要与宝贵的教训。
依斯迈沙比里也是百乐区国会议员，他接受《南洋商报》专访时，谈及资讯工艺对国内政局扮演的重要角色。
这也是他受委部长后，首次接受中文媒体专访。
他说，大选期间，一些传达诽谤信息的部落格文章深深的影响了年轻选民的思维，这是国阵受重挫的主因之一。
年轻人常阅读部落格
他赞同首相拿督斯里阿都拉巴达威所言，即国阵这次的确忽略了部落格、网络及手机短讯这些电子媒体的威力。
他说，回顾大选期间的手机短讯、诽谤性部落格文章及网站，全都含有爆炸性力量，这些负面宣传足以摧毁国阵威望。
“年轻人最常阅读部落格，他们在耳濡目染下受影响，国阵忽略了这一点，这是我们的败笔。”
首次入阁的依斯迈沙比里说，执掌青体部，使他感受到前所未有的压力及责任感。
多年前，他曾出任前任文化，艺术及旅游部长丹斯里沙巴鲁丁吉的政治秘书，是从基层做起的政治领袖，经验非常丰富。
调整青年心态争票源
他形容本身任重道远，尤其是必须“与年轻人为伍”，而他本身的重任包括为国阵争取年轻票源。
他说，国阵在本届大选受重挫后，青体部扮演的角色须大大调整，责任加重了不少。
他指出，调查显示，年轻人倾向于把选票投给反对党，在这个时候接管青体部，最大的挑战是调整年轻人对国阵所抱持的心态及看法。
“过去一些人认为青体部是‘可有可无’的部门，这是错误的看法。”
他说，青体部绝对是一个关键部门，主导国家人力资源及国阵票源。
“全国总人口当中，年轻人占40％，这是我的责任之一。”

李家全为谁服务？

“新鲜事”是什么事？
例如，原本在民政党担任要职的李家全在辞去所有党职后接受槟城新政府的邀请，接受槟州发展机构董事和投资槟城董事和执委员会主席两个要职。首相兼国阵主席阿都拉指出，这违反国阵精神，李家全的做法并非国阵惯例，此事对国阵来说算是“新鲜事”。
那，什么是国阵的惯例？政治的分赃？只要靠“政治正确”就能往高处爬？于是乎，靠“政治正确”坐上位子的人就只顾政治得继续“正确”，而非以民为福祉为最先考量？
槟城市议员的委任，纵使有人批抨在48位市议员成员当中，只有7人来自非政府组织，而其中多是商会代表，这是依据旧有的国阵模式。然而，虽有酬佣意味，但这至少是一项新的模式。我们等待新政府在选前对于地方选举的承诺，而非让地方政府沦为另一联盟政党的政治分赃。
宣布退党前，李家全给民政党出了一道难题。民政党代主席许子根先是以“人各有志不勉强”祝福李，后来再转为质疑林冠英委任李的政治企图。政治青蛙我们见多了，或因在原来的政党里头无法争出位而跳到另一政党，或因权位和利诱而跳槽。可是，李的模式应不属这一类，而是国阵成员能否为民盟政府谋事。
杜乾焕婉拒章瑛加入华校发展委员会，人民深感惋惜，杜乾焕也为自己留下了风骨。但是，李家全是“前朝”官员，如今接受“当朝”政府委任，是勇气的赞美，抑或贪图的骂名他自去承担。值得关注的是，后续会不会形成不问背景，唯人是用之风，还只是政治上互挖角的戏码？
在这片土地上，我们渴望国家能不分肤色和宗教，能给我们均等的机会，做为非土著，我们都期待“马来西亚人的马来西亚”时代的到来。李家全模式，挑战我们思维的，用人能否不问政治背景？
作为槟城子民，我们希望州属的昌盛，别来一群饥饿的狼撕裂在国际竞争中已显疲态的槟城。套用郑小平的名句，不管黑猫白猫，会捉老鼠的就是好猫。管他行动党或民政党人，能把槟城治理好的就是人民所要的人！
“为民服务”是政客常挂在嘴的语言。谁是人民？国阵模式，大概是先为党服务，然后才谈为民服务。槟城新政府，如何落实新文化和模式的局面，而这种局面是对人民有益，并且打造真正具活力与竞争力的槟州才是人们所关注的。
无论新鲜事，或参与新鲜事的人都别具意义。

演批評民聯施政角色 民政再出發監督檳州 我們會回來（we will return）
演批評民聯施政角色 民政再出發監督檳州
2008年5月3日
民政黨經過2個月后的休息，重新衝刺，並舉辦大選后最大規模的活動，左2起為許子根及謝寬泰，右為鄧章耀。
（檳城2日訊）民政黨在經過敗選兩個月后已恢復衝刺，並將在不久后展開反對黨的批評角色，針對新州政府所做出的計劃等發表意見。
民政黨全國代主席丹斯里許子根博士指出，雖然民政黨現在已不在政府內，但在聯邦政府及州政府方面都有扮演的角色，同時也呼籲聯邦政府對已通過的大型工程，應該繼續進行。
他在萬眾「五一」嘉年華上致詞時說，檳州為全馬首個州屬宣布「五一」為勞動節公共假期，而打工一族更是推動經濟轉型的勞動階級。
他說，儘管民政黨現在已沒有在政府內，但以過去與人民打成一片的情況，出席該活動的公眾人潮，還是讓他感到欣慰。
「感恩人民還是給民政黨這個機會，雖然現在已是反對黨角色，可是這對我們來說並不新鮮，畢竟民政黨也是以反對黨起身。」
民政開始活動
他繼稱，民政黨並未失去鬥志，還是會以人民的發展為主，因此，他宣布民政黨經過2個月的休息后，已開始在各選區活動。
「各選區活動及服務中心將由黨服務及協調隊伍負責，並且由州聯委會直接資助，即絕對不放棄，繼續工作。」
民政黨總秘書拿督斯里謝寬泰及全國副議長鄧章耀皆出席了該項由民青團、婦女組及各區部所舉辦的活動，而參與該活動公眾更是將近4000人。
許子根表示，該活動為民政黨首次在大選后舉辦的大規模活動，同時也體現出萬眾一心的精神。
「我們會回來（we will return） ， 並且在接下來3 個月，陸陸續續地舉辦活動，包括政治論壇等。」
他說，他對聯邦政府宣布要進行司法改革及將反貪局改革為獨立機構的兩項決定，而感到欣慰。

“相信妻有能力解決問題”‧許子根：無需介入
“相信妻有能力解決問題”‧許子根：無需介入
（檳城）檳州前首席部長丹斯里許子根，相信其妻子徐嘉平及其他協會成員，有能力解決檳州國州議員夫人協會把協會餘款轉至正副部長夫人協會的風波。
提及許子根會否以協會顧問的身份介入時，他強調其夫人徐嘉平和（她的）同僚都是有節制、有原則的人，完全有能力解決。
“州政府（和林冠英）指責哪一方，就由哪方回應。為甚麼要把我扯入事件中？如果林冠英說我‘躲在妻子的裙子後面’，那是他一向來存有其他用意的說法。”
他認為自己不需要解釋。在他擔任首席部長期間，也在州內上百個組織擔任顧問。
各組織有能力解決問題
“我覺得每個組織都有能力處理本身的問題，除非問題已到非常嚴重的地步。”
也是民政黨全國代主席的許子根週四（5月1日）晚上出席檳州民政黨主辦的“萬眾一心嘉年華”後，於新聞發佈會上受到記者詢問時這麼說。
記者詢及檳州國州議員夫人協會宣佈解散是否違反協會章程時，許子根透露協會已向林冠英和黃泉安發出挑戰，要求針對解散的課題辯論。
再創造革新贏民心
較早時，許子根在萬眾一心嘉年華上致詞時，透露民政黨將經過再創造和品牌革新，才能重新出發以贏回人民的信心和支持。
不過，他強調民政黨永遠不會乖離既定的“馬來西亞人”政治路線和鬥爭思想。而且，民政黨在州政府上任近兩個月後，也會慢慢地開始批評，並扮演積極的反對黨角色。
他透露民政黨在檳州各區部和國州選區的活動與服務中心將逐步開放。民政黨檳州總部將援助這些活動與服務中心，向人民顯示民政黨不曾放棄人民的決心。
他說，民政黨於1970年代初執政檳州，是首個宣佈勞動節為公假的州屬，也證明民政黨關心和尊重勞動階級的貢獻，永遠是個與民共進的政黨。
當晚在湖內檳城國際體育競技場舉行的萬眾一心嘉年華，獲得三四千人出席參與其盛，也是民政黨自308全國大選遭遇慘敗後的第一場大型活動。
（檳城）檳州前首席部長丹斯里許子根，相信其妻子徐嘉平及其他協會成員，有能力解決檳州國州議員夫人協會把協會餘款轉至正副部長夫人協會的風波。
提及許子根會否以協會顧問的身份介入時，他強調其夫人徐嘉平和（她的）同僚都是有節制、有原則的人，完全有能力解決。
“州政府（和林冠英）指責哪一方，就由哪方回應。為甚麼要把我扯入事件中？如果林冠英說我‘躲在妻子的裙子後面’，那是他一向來存有其他用意的說法。”
他認為自己不需要解釋。在他擔任首席部長期間，也在州內上百個組織擔任顧問。
各組織有能力解決問題
“我覺得每個組織都有能力處理本身的問題，除非問題已到非常嚴重的地步。”
也是民政黨全國代主席的許子根週四（5月1日）晚上出席檳州民政黨主辦的“萬眾一心嘉年華”後，於新聞發佈會上受到記者詢問時這麼說。

YAB MR LIM GUAN ENG, THE CHIEF MINISTER OF PENANG AND
YB MR JEFF OOI, THE CHIEF OF STAFF OF THE CHIEF MINISTER'S OFFICE
TO AN OPEN PUBLIC DEBATE
We regret the recent statements by YAB Mr Lim Guan Eng, the Chief Minister of Penang, insinuating the failure of PBT in disbursing the funds of PBT appropriately, to take care of the welfare of the Penang people.
We also resent the insinuation by YB Mr Jeff Ooi, the Chief of Staff of the Chief Minister's Office, that PBT lied about giving donation to Mount Miriam Hospital in one of a series of postings entitled "Desperate Housewives" on his own blog yesterday.
We are confident we were correct in the way we managed our association and managed our funds, in accordance with proper procedure.
However, we strongly feel that any further statements in the media will not be satisfactory to both of them. We also strongly feel that they are openly questioning our integrity and dignity in handling the funds and affairs of PBT.
We are prepared to tell all to defend our integrity and dignity publicly.
Therefore, we are inviting both of them to an open public debate on the handling of the PBT funds and the manner in which PBT was dissolved.
We hope they will be gentleman enough to accept this invitation. We are giving them 48 hours to respond. Their acceptance will show their sincerity to know the truth and dispel doubts that they attempt to make speculations and insinuations against us.
The venue, date and format of the proposed debate can be discussed between the respective representatives, once YAB Mr Lim Guan Eng and YB Mr Jeff Ooi accept our challenge.
We also have in mind several women leaders, one of whom can be invited to chair the open debate. We will make available their names, upon the acceptance of our challenge by Lim and Ooi.
A formal letter to invite both the leaders to the debate will be faxed to the Chief Minister's Office tomorrow morning (2 May 2008).

槟州国州议员夫人协会前任理亊挑战
槟州首席部长林冠英及首长办公室幕僚长黄泉安
进行公开辩论
我们很遗憾槟州首席部长林冠英指责槟州国州议员夫人协会未能妥当地分配其义款，来照顾槟州人民福利。
我们也感到极度不滿対首长办公室幕僚长黄泉安昨日在其部落格上张贴一篇标题为"绝望的家庭主妇"（引用影集"深宮怨妇"英文片名）中，含沙射影暗讽槟州国州议员夫人协会谎称捐款给玛丽安山癌症医院。
我们很有伩心我们在管理协会及处理基金的方式是正确及合乎正常程序的。
然而，我们深信，如果通过媒体，无论再作任何进一步的解释都无法令他们两位滿意。我们也深深感受到彼等是在公开置疑我们在处理槟州国州议员夫人协会基金及会务时的诚伩正直和威伩尊严。
我们准备公开地交代一切以捍卫我们的诚伩和尊严。
因此，我们邀请他们两位対槟州国州议员夫人协会解散方式及及基金的处理，与我们进行公开的辩论。
我们希望他俩能夠有风度的接受这个挑战。我们将给他们48小时的时间回应。若他们肯接受，则表示他们有诚意要知道亊情真相，而不是单凭个人想法凭空猜测，企图抹黑我们。
至於辩论的地点、日期及方式可以在获得対方回应同意后，由双方的代表商讨。我们脑海中已有儿名妇女领袖，可以邀请她们的任何一位来主持。
我们也将会於5月2日（星期五）上午将把邀请公开辩论伩传真到首长办公室。

Penang gov't gets more flak over appointments
Penang gov't gets more flak over appointments
The Penang government’s appointment of 36 councillors has been criticised by 55 civil society groups, who described the candidates as “politically-partisan” people without a strong track-record as community leaders.
The Coalition for Good Governance (CGG) - whose secretariat is helmed by human rights group Suaram - told a press conference in Petaling Jaya today that the April 16 appointments were “undemocratic, lack public consultations and were non-transparent”.
“Among the small contingent of seven non-partisan representatives, the over-representation of five members of commercial interests and two members of vis-a-vis non-commercial non-governmental organisations is completely unacceptable,” said Suaram executive director Yap Swee Seng, reading from a joint statement.
“There’s also no clear policy on how they made the appointments and decisions. We urge the state governments of Selangor, Perak and Kedah not to follow the example of Penang.”
The Pakatan Rakyat state government has been harping on its intention to ensure competence, accountability and transparency in its administration ever since it took over Penang after the 12th general election.
In the days following their electoral victory, DAP parliamentarians in Kuala Lumpur had pledged their commitment to bringing back local council elections, which had been suspended in 1964.
The Penang government’s decision had earlier come under fire from NGOs in the state.
Yap pointed out that the Penang appointments did not meet “the principles, criteria and processes of political appointment”, as set out in the CGG’s memorandum of March 28.
The guidelines were drawn up as an interim measure pending the promised revival of local council elections - a key plank of the opposition campaign during the elections.

做人不能太DAP, 所谓“做人太DAP”，当然包括各种内涵，容我细禀其详。
做人不能太DAP, 所谓“做人太DAP”，当然包括各种内涵，容我细禀其详。
一，做人太DAP，就是在上台前还在批评民政党槟州政府增设一个副首席部长职位让巫统议员担任，是“向巫统低头”，是“懦弱”的表现；而在上台后，不只不废除副首长一职，还一次过增设两个，让大家开开心心分官做，还要打出“为了确保州领导层能够代表槟州所有的社群”的堂皇理由，而不是“向公正党低头”、“懦弱”云云。
二，做人太DAP，就是在当官前，那些衮衮辩才如邓章钦、倪可敏、陈国伟等还在大义凛然的批评戴宋谷是“侵犯文化自由”、杯葛抗议要戴宋谷出席的官方活动；在当官后却开开心心戴着宋谷去宣誓就任，欧阳捍华还说“希望人民了解行动党苦衷”、陈国伟还说戴宋谷“很无奈”云云。
（顺带一提，1986年大选，当时的马青总团长纪永辉竞选吉隆坡新街场区，对手是行动党的陈国伟。当时那里流传一份传单，内容是一张纪氏头戴宋谷帽，在皇宫接受元首册封的照片，在旁则写着 “戴宋谷的马青总团长”和“你相信出卖民族尊严的人吗？”选举的结果是纪氏败给了陈国伟。）
三，做人太DAP，就是在做政府前还在对身兼州议员与市议员的查卡利亚，又是抗议又是示威的大力挞伐，似乎查卡利亚是十恶不赦的魔头；在做了政府后，在槟城竟然也出现州议员兼任市议员的情况，且最绝的还是掌管地方政府事务的行政议员曹观友那句，“这种情况在其它州属常有所见，例如雪兰莪州的已故前任州议员查卡利亚，也曾经兼任市议员。”
曹观友竟然把党同志与一个曾被我党批斗得恶名昭彰的“恶人”相提并论，以“恶人”为师，以自比于“恶人”为荣，这不是做人太DAP是什么？
四，做人太DAP，就是林吉祥一边对着国会高喊“打造第一世界国会”的建议，要求国会接纳他林老的12项建议，包括由反对党议员担任副议长、现场直播国会会议过程、公共账目委员会由反对党议员担任主席等；而另一边，在槟城、霹雳和雪兰莪当家又当权的党同志却不见让反对党议员担任副议长、现场直播国会会议过程、公共账目委员会由反对党议员担任主席等，以“打造第一世界州议会”。
槟州首长林冠英、雪兰莪高级行政议员郭素沁和霹雳高级行政议员倪可汉，公然无视该党最尊贵领袖林吉祥“打造第一世界国会”的呼吁，不将有关呼吁在本身“话事”的州属实践，害最尊贵领袖的呼吁沦为自己讲自己爽的空洞口号，不知道该党纪律委员会会采取行动否？
五，做人太DAP，就是在一开始时大大声宣布用1亿令吉建养猪场，摆出一副等着各方歌功颂德的样子；在经过马来报章大肆炒作、马来村民的示威抗议后，一改口气声明有关的养猪场乃前朝政府计划，换了一副“唔关我事”的姿态。
做人不能太DAP，就是不能“有功他上报，有镬别人包”。

Playground at Parliment Malaysia
I think the RTM 1 have made a right choice to let the Parlimen Malaysia go live in TV, my friend from Singapore insulting me that, how come ur Malaysia Parlimen like ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
I wondering why people like Kinabatangan and sri Gading can be selected as MP, the voter blind ? why they acting as a MP but speak like uncle in PASAR. Seriously this issue should really look seriously in our malaysia politic culture.
I think all this MP should go for displinary training before they attend to Parlimen right?
