Tidak rasmi: PAS pertahan DUN Sungai Limau dengan 1,300 undi

OLEH ZULKIFLI SULONG, PENGARANG ANALISIS DAN RENCANA
November 04, 2013
UPDATED: Nov 05, 2013 03:59 am

PAS dikatakan sudah berjaya mengekalkan kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Sungai Limau dengan majoriti 1,300 undi.

Menurut Bilik Gerakan PAS, semua pimpinan dan calon parti Islam itu kini bergerak ke pusat penjumlahan undi untuk mendapatkan keputusan rasmi dari Suruhanjaya Pilihan Raya (SPR).

SPR menjangkakan keputusan rasmi dapat diketahui seawal 9 malam ini.

Pilihan raya kecil itu menyaksikan pertembungan antara calon Barisan Nasional (BN) Dr Ahmad Sohaimi Lazim dan calon PAS Mohd Azam Abdul Samat.

Kerusi DUN Sungai Limau kosong berikutan kematian Tan Sri Azizan Abdul Razak yang merupakan wakil rakyat kawasan itu sejak 1995.

DUN Sungai Limau mempunyai 27,222 pemilih berdaftar, meliputi 25,323 orang atau 93% pengundi Melayu, 1,842 orang Cina, 15 orang India dan selebihnya kaum-kaum lain. – Bernama, 4 November, 2013.

Latest report: PAS has won hard-fought Sungai Limau. Zairil said Counting Centre full of PR/PAS ppl with none from BN. Best indication.

Indications are PAS has won with reduced majority but more than the 500-vote majority Mahfuz had estimated. Significant victory nonetheless.

Tak rasmi: PAS menang, majoriti kurang
6:43PM Nov 4 2013
Pusat pembuangan undi sudah ditutup dan kertas undi mula dikira di Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Sungai Limau. Keputusan dijangka diperoleh pada jam 10 malam ini.

(Malaysiakini bagaimanapun akan melaporkan tidak rasmi dari masa ke semasa.)

Siapa yang menjadi pilihan pengundi - sama ada Ahmad Sohaimi Lazaim (BN) atau Mohd Azam Samat (PAS) - akan terjawap tidak lama lagi.

Sungai Limau selama ini menjadi kubu kuat PAS. Ia dimenangi bekas menteri besar Kedah almarhun Tan Sri Azizan Razak untuk lima penggal berturut-turut.

PAS cuba mengukuhkan penguasaan mereka dengan menambah majoriti. Dalam pilihan raya umum lalu parti Islam itu menang dengan majoriti 2,774 undi.

Untuk itu, BN, dengan slogan "Berani Hijrah", disokong dengan kekuatan menteri besar baru Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir cuba merampasnya daripada tangan PAS.

Seramai 85.5 peratus (22,642 pemilih) daripada 27,222 pemilih dalam Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) itu menunaikan tanggungjawapnya hari ini.

7.35pm TAK RASMI: PAS menang di DUN Sg Limau dengan majoriti kira-kira 1,000 undi, menurut maklumat daripada pusat perjumlahan kedua-dua parti, PAS dan BN.

Kepada pengundi BN, kami tidak marahkan anda. Cuma kami kesal bila anda tertipu. Lain kali jangan pilih mereka. Semoga pengundi BN sedar.

Another Star...dirty UMNO politics?

Replika potong kaki permainan politik KEJI

JERAI - PAS menyifatkan tindakan pihak tertentu mengantung replika patung dipotong kaki sekitar kawasan Pilihan Raya Kecil (PRK) Sungai Limau sebagai tindakan tidak beradab.

Pengarah Jawatankuasa Induk PRK Sungai Limau, Datuk Mahfuz Omar berkata tindakan tidak bertanggungjawab itu bukan sahaja menyedihkan seluruh penduduk di sini, malah paling terasa adalah ahli keluarga Allahyarham Ustaz Azizan Abdul Razak sendiri.

"Saya sangat sedih, ini tidak bertanggungjawab, pokitik keji, tidak bermoral serta memburukkan orang yang telah meninggal dunia. Kita mahu kekalkan politik damai ini.

"Tan Sri Muhyiddin sebelum ini juga sudah mintak maaf. Keluarga Allahyarham pun sudah maafkan. Kedua-dua pihak berjiwa besar," katanya pada sidang media hari ini.

Beliau berkata demikian ketika ditanya berhubung pendirian PAS terhadap isu replika patung kaki yang dipotong yang mencemar kepen hari-hari terakhir di Sngai Limau ini.

Mengulas lanjut, Mahuz berkata PAS bersetuju untuk membuat laporan polis, namun akan berbincang dengan peguam terlebih dahulu.

Ditanya berhubung kenyataan Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi bahawa tindakan tersebut strategi "reverse psychology" pihak lawan untuk memburukkan Umno, Mahfuz berkata hanya orang yang biasa dan berpengalaman berbuat demikian tahu perkara itu.

"Saya tak tahu siapa yang buat, tapi saya hairan dia kata reverse psychology. Hanya orang pernah buat dan berpengalaman sahaja tahu," katanya.

Mukhriz jangan bermuka-muka

Dalam pada itu, Mahfuz turut membidas Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir sebagai menteri besar yang bermuka-muka.

Beliau merujuk kepada kenyataan Mukhriz yang menggambarkan Allahyarham Ustaz Azizan tidak berbuat apa-apa pembangunan sepajang sepenggal memerintah Kedah.

"Saya gembira semua orang ucap simpati pada Allahyarham.

"Tapi Mukhriz kononnya simpati, tapi di belakang, menghina Ustaz Azizan," katanya.

Beliau berkata, rekod menunjukkan bagaimana Allahyarham Ustaz Azizan sebelun ini berjaya menarik pelaburan ke Kedah dengan rekodnya yang baik.

"Dia (Mukhriz) sebelum ini timbalan menteri waktu dia jadi Ahli Parlimen Jerlun, apa yang dia bawa (pembangunan) di Jerlun.

"Mulut dia jangan celupar sangat," tegas Mahfuz.

The Rising DAP New Star...YB Liew Chin Tong


Their behavior in stopping Chin Tong and Hong Pin from Jalan Station was the most unIndian and unMalaysian attitude. You never chase even your worst enemy away from your home should they visit you on an auspicious day like Deepavali. Jalan Station is not the exclusive property or MIC and neither was there signage restricting entry to MIC members only.

In a festive season, more so in Malaysia, the behavior of those who barricaded the road to prevent a Member of Parliament and State Assemblyman from entering was despicable and not within the Malaysian spirit for Deepavali.

As an Malaysian of Indian origin, I am ashamed that some fellow Malaysians had behaved in such a despicable manner that Friday evening.

No more sugar in your kopi?
November 4, 2013
FEATURE

By Hann Liew

For Malaysians, perhaps the 2nd most important commodity (after petrol) that we use in our everyday lives is sugar. Naturally, we concern ourselves with the movement of prices of sugar almost as much as we do petrol prices.

In the Malaysia Budget 2014 announcement made in October 2013, the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Najib Tun Razak announced that in the interest of improving public health via a healthier, lower-sugar diet among its people (and improve public coffers in the meantime as well), the last remaining amount of sugar subsidy of RM0.34 per kilogramme (kg) was to be removed.

Prior to this, sugar (specifically coarse granulated white sugar) was a controlled price product in Malaysia, with the sugar subsidy having been reduced gradually over the last 4 years. Prior to 2010, the price of 1kg of sugar was set at RM1.45, but had since gone up five times, that is by 20 sen per kg on January 1, 2010, by 25 sen per kg on July 18, 2010, by 20 sen per kg on December 4, 2010, by 20 sen per kg on May 10, 2011, 20 sen per kg on 29 September, 2012, and finally the last remaining 34 sen per kg on the October 26, 2013.

Another fine Malaysian Star...THE BAR COUNCIL.


Threats don’t scare us, says Malaysian Bar
FMT Staff
| November 4, 2013

The Malaysian Bar brushes aside a threat allegedly made by the Muslim Lawyers Association in regards to the Allah appeal.

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Bar today said it was undeterred by threats or intimidation in its task to uphold justice, adding that it was bound to act without fear or favour, and without regard for its own interests.

Responding to a media report on Saturday in which the Muslim Lawyers Association had allegedly warned the Malaysian Bar not to back Christian publication The Herald in the Allah ruling, Bar president Christopher Leong said he was disappointed with the Muslim lawyers association.

“It is strange for an association of lawyers to fear arguments taken in a court of law and to impel them to issue threats. It leaves one to wonder what it is that they are afraid of,” he said in a statement.

He stressed that the Malaysian Bar did not back any party, and that access to justice was for all who seek it.

“The Malaysian Bar and the Bar Council are secular bodies. We are not grounded in or partial to any religious belief. The Malaysian Bar does not stand for or against any party.

“The positions that we take are, and will always be, prescribed by the rule of law and premised on the Federal Constitution.

“We act for justice and truth and will not be swayed by partisan politics or religious belief. The Malaysian Bar will not be deterred in upholding the cause of justice by any threat or intimidation,” he added.

He said that it was unfortunate that some deemed it appropriate to resort to issuing threats or fear mongering as a means of getting their way.

Sometimes these threats are coupled with claims of ignorance or confusion or cries of hurt feelings and sensitivities, he added.

He said it was long past the time for Malaysians to shed such practices.

He also said the Malaysian authorities should cease pandering to, or legitimising such practices, as it only served to encourage those who resort to threats or violence as a means of getting their way or silencing others.

Last month the Court of Appeal had over-ruled a High Court ruling which had allowed the Herald to use the word ‘Allah’ in its Bahasa Malaysia edition. Since the the Catholic Church, which is the publisher of the Herald, has decided to seek a review at the Federal Court.

Singaporeans Are The Fastest In The World To Become Millionaires


It takes most Singaporeans less than 10 years to become a millionaire. That is the fastest rate anywhere in the world, says a wealth report released by the Barclays Bank on July 5, 2013 in Singapore.

The Bank surveyed 2000 high net worth individuals globally in early 2013 to ascertain how entrepreneurs, business leaders and investors make, spend and share wealth. The respondents were individuals with net worth of more than $1.5 million. A fifth of the 500 interviewed were based in Asia.

While the popular belief is that the wealth of millionaires in Singapore has come from the dramatic rise in property prices over the years, that is only partly true. According to the survey, 72% of the wealth was made from personal investments, followed by 58% from property and 55% from savings through earning and bonuses. (Respondents could choose multiple answers).

The financial crisis too, despite its seismic economic, political and social fallout, the world over, enabled close to 50% of the rich Singaporeans to increase their wallet size. This was mainly on the back of a buoyant Straits Times Index (STI) that doubled in value from 2008 to 2013. Regional bourses in Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia showed a similar vibrancy. A quarter of Singaporeans interviewed said their wealth had jumped five-fold or more over their lifetime.

However, considering the highly -integrated nature of the island state’s economy, Singapore’s rich also experienced the highest fluctuation in their fortunes; more any other country. Almost 70% said their wealth was volatile and moved “a great deal” overtime.

When it comes to spending, despite headline grabs of $26,000 cocktails, Ferrari-speckled roads in Singapore, the survey reports that Singaporeans use 61% of their money for saving and investing, just a notch behind their Chinese brethren in Hong Kong at 66%, and ahead of mainland Chinese who would put 58% of their money to work in banks or the stock market. The second most popular use of money among Singaporeans was on travel and social activities (16%). Only 7 per cent spent on cars, jewelry or collectibles. This is in sharp contract to the new rich in India where 17% are spending on tangibles like cars, homes or jewels.

And what is the psyche of a typical Singaporean on sharing wealth? He would rather gain personal fulfillment and a sense of purpose in life. While 13% Singaporeans prefer to pass on their assets in inheritance, more than 50% want to give their wealth to charity. And they prefer to do it in their lifetime.

Singapore has the world's highest percentage of millionaires, with one out of every six households having at least one million US dollars in disposable wealth. This excludes property, businesses, and luxury goods, which if included would further increase the number of millionaires, especially as property in Singapore is among the world's most expensive.[94] Despite its relative economic success, Singapore does not have a minimum wage, believing that it would lower its competitiveness. It also has one of the highest income inequality levels among developed countries, coming in just behind Hong Kong and in front of the United States.[95][96]

Acute poverty is rare in Singapore; the government has rejected the idea of a generous welfare system, stating that each generation must earn and save enough for its entire life cycle. There are, however, numerous means-tested 'assistance schemes' provided by the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports in Singapore for the needy, including some that pay out SGD 400 to SGD 1000 per month to each needy household, free medical care at government hospitals, money for children's school fees, rental of studio apartments for SGD 80 a month, training grants for courses

Stop embarrassing Malaysians, Najib told
Alyaa Azhar
| November 4, 2013

Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak was hypocritical when answering questions during the CNN interview hosted by Christiane Amanpour, says DAP's Tony Pua.

PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak has been urged to “stop embarrassing Malaysians” with the global moderate statesman facade as his actions are to the contrary.

Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua was commenting on Najib’s 12-minute interview with Christiane Amanpour on CNN last week.

“At the interview, the Prime Minister’s facial expression tells the world how uncomfortable he was in answering the questions thrown at him which exposes the facade of a global moderate statesman,” said Pua.

The DAP national publicity secretary also pointed out how the Prime Minister sang a different tune when Amanpour directed the spotlight to Malaysia’s increasing religious conservatism and extremism.

Najib had said that his priority was to ensure peace and harmony in Malaysia.

“What the Prime Minister is telling the world is that while it is hunky-dory to make the glamorous pitch for moderation at international platforms, moderation takes a back seat to peace and harmony domestically,” Pua said.

Pua elaborated that the peace and harmony mentioned by Najib was merely euphemism for pandering to the religious far-right and restricting the rights of the minority.

“As an example, the Prime Minister told Reuters that the curb against Catholic weekly, The Herald, from using the word Allah was necessary to protect public security and national harmony, going as far as to describe The Herald as a publication with wide circulation,” he said.

However, Pua stressed that the wide circulation was a distribution of only 14,000 issues in churches in a country of 30 million people.

“Instead of justifying his peace and harmony priority, his defense only proved the persecution of minorities in Malaysia,” added Pua.

He then opined that Najib does not have any right to be a statesman for moderation at international forums if he cannot practise what he preaches.

“His pretentious call for the Global Movement of Moderates only leads to being easily exposed as a hypocrite at the global arena and become an embarrassment to the country,” Pua stressed.
