Claims by former deputy MCA president Tan Sri Lim Ah Lek that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak did not want outgoing MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek Chua to seek re-election has indeed ruffled the latter’s feather.

But why did Chua rebut the claim when he had already announced that he would not be seeking re-election on Dec 21?

Restaurant's ban on those wearing MCA uniform to stay

http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/249416

A Chinese herbal restaurant in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, has reinforced its ban on those wearing the MCA party uniform, saying it was just giving voice to the people who do not want to confront but live a happy life.

Named Red Yeast and located in Bukit Sri Bintang, the restaurant put up a fresh notice at its premises yesterday, as a sign of protest against MCA secretary-general Kong Cho Ha's statement urging the Chinese to stop their confrontational attitude.

CONFIRMED, M'sia is world's most corrupt nation, dirty money BIGGER THAN GDP

Malaysia’s exceptional performance as the world champion of corruption is justified with of RM173.84 billion (US$54.18 billion) of illicit funds outflow or dirty money siphoned out of Malaysia in 2011, ranked fourth worst in the world. For 2011, Malaysia is behind giants Russia (US$191.14 billion), China (US$151.35 billion) and India (US$84.93 billion).

According to Washington-based financial watchdog Global Financial Integrity (GFI) Report, despite a smaller population Malaysia has a higher illicit funds outflow than many larger populated countries in the world from 2002-11 of USD 370.38 billion.

Crime, corruption and tax evasion has been identified as amongst the main causes. With a total of RM1.2 trillion or USD 370.38 billion lost from dirty money between 2002-11, this huge loss of funds from dirty money is larger than Malaysia’s GDP this year or next year.

Every country on the top 10 list of shame, has a population larger than Malaysia. There is no doubt that on a per capita basis, Malaysia wins hands down as the world champion of corruption validating the new title awarded by Transparency International and Wall Street Journal over the last one year.

Bank Negara has failed

The BN Government should address this shameful title accorded to Malaysia by punishing those responsible for huge financial scandals such as the RM 52 billion bumis shares scandal where ordinary Malays missed out on these shares which disappeared presumably to BN leaders, the RM14 billion Port Klang Free Trade Zone scandal and the annual exposes of financial malpractices highlighted in the annual Auditor-General Report(involving amounts of RM 6.5 billion in 2012). To date no one has been punished.

Clearly Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has been ineffective and incompetent at best and at worst downright irresponsible and criminally negligent in stopping the illicit outflow of funds despite setting up a task force in 2010 to implement measures to stop the outflow of dirty money. Perhaps Malaysia should follow the British model of creating the world's first central public registry of corporate beneficial ownership information to stop dirty money.

Lim Guan Eng is the DAP secretary general and Penang Chief Minister

2013年即将过去,505全国大选也已经过了7个多月。现在让我们来看看大选前纳吉政府许下的承诺跳票了多少;而骗到另一个5年执政权之后又向人民砍了多少刀!

仔细看看这张对照图,我真的不相信那些还对纳吉政府抱有希望的选民不会彻底失望。

505大选前,纳吉政府宣布大派糖果,有哪些糖果呢?是糖果还是毒药?请看看:...

一:1个大马援助金从RM500调高至RM1,200。
(大选后已经确定跳票!)

二:学生买书固本津贴从RM250调高到RM300.

三:承诺在全国兴建100万间可承担房屋。
(迄今还没看到任何实际行动!)

四:每年增聘4000名警员。

五:汽车售价会分阶段降价20%至30%。
(大选后正式宣布:办不到!所以确定只是一个欺骗选票,Copy民联政策的空头承诺!)

六:单身公民津贴从RM250增加至RM600.

七:承诺兴建一天从砂拉越Sematan贯穿至沙巴Serudong,全长2,300公里的联邦大道。
(已经承诺很多届大选了,只是老调重弹;大选过关之后又不当一回事了!)

八:承诺创造330万个新的就业机会。
(又是一个空口说白话,骗乡村愚民的谎言。)

九:即刻为全国42万公务员教师升职加薪。
(实际上许多华裔教师都被排斥在升职名单外!)

十:专为印裔社群设立一个总值5亿令吉的单位信托基金。
(迄今没有任何动静!)

505大选后,纳吉的糖果策略又一次骗到Kampung愚民选票,以47%总得票率成立新一届弱势政府。

大概他也深知再多5年后,捞钱的机会可能就没有了,而这些年他与朋党大量掏空国库私运海外匿藏的财富已经超过3千亿;加上其他亏空的、捞钱的大番薯计划所亏损的,累积债务已经超过6200亿!单单是还利息已经非常吃力,何况许多母金纷纷要到期了。。。。

如果换做临近大选,纳吉可能不管三七廿一,捞得盆满钵满拍拍屁股走人,让人民自生自灭;但是现在距离下一届全国大选还有4年多,无论如何还是得撑住。怎么撑?当然是全民埋单咯!

于是纳吉手起刀落,管你人民哀嚎连连!最先是汽油涨价;接着是白糖大起价;面粉大起价;电费大涨价;门牌税大涨价!踏入2014年,全国多条收费大道纷纷大起价;公共交通工具票价大起;还有煤气、轻快铁、火车票、学生车收费统统大起;还有2015年4月将实施,要了人民的命的消费税。。。。人民反对?反对无效!谁敢阿之阿佐?不爽就移民!再不然就搬去森林住!

当然,我们同时也只能眼白白看着巫统朋党A钱的工程一个一个出问题,不是坍塌就是天花板掉落,还有机场第二终站超支又超支,好不容易丢了40多亿,以为总算搞定了,结果又发现地板出问题。。。。尽管国家已经负债累累,纳吉政府还是继续掏空人民的钱去填补这些无底洞。。。

这就是事实真相了!人民后悔也没用,再怎么讲,就算它是用欺骗手段、作弊手段取得政权;毕竟是人民选票选出来的政府。

乐观的想法,是我们还有4年时间争取更多选民清醒,再一次发挥人民力量扳倒政府;悲观的想法则是:我们还有漫长的4年需要继续忍受痛苦!

衷心希望乡区选民快快觉醒,快快从巫统的魔咒中清醒过来,我们的国家才有希望。

Speak up or close shop, MCA’s Gan tells party

MCA must stand firm and be vocal on social and political issues or risk closing shop by the next general election, warned party presidential candidate Gan Ping Sieu.

"We don't articulate enough of our stand on political and social issues," said the vice-president, unveiling his presidential manifesto today.

"We have to start doing that or risk closing shop in four years time."

Gan faces former president Ong Tee Keat and deputy president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, in a three-cornered fight for the top post in party elections next weekend.

Now, I wonder if any MCA leader had open their mouth to speak gainst UMNO, the big bully? All MCA does is wagging it's tails?

Lynas engineer drowns in pond at plant

KUANTAN: An engineer of the Lynas rare earth plant drowned today at a pond at the plant in the Gebeng industrial area here, police said.
Kuantan deputy OCPD Supt Abdul Aziz Ahmad said Mohamad Fadzli Mohamad Rafdzi, 33, is believed to have slipped and fallen into the pond at about 9 am.

A colleague, Sharizal Samsudin, 40, lodged a police report at the Gebeng police station, he said when contacted by Bernama.

Abdul Aziz said the police and firemen rushed to the plant and rescuers found Mohamad Fadzli's body in the pond at 2.40 pm and sent it to the Tengku Ampuan Afzan Hospital in Kuantan.

Police did not suspect any foul play in the incident, he said. -- BERNAMA

Tak malu this mamakutty, I say he cannot be 1% of Nelson Mandela.

Despite having retired as PM for many years, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad continues to attract attention with his statements, sometimes for the wrong reasons. Mahathir again evoked bewilderment by reportedly claiming to be like Nelson Mandela.

Incorrigible Mahathir continues to indulge in doublespeak

COMMENT: After the last general election, I told myself to leave former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad alone.

After all, the man who ruled Malaysia for 22 years is nearing 90, and he should be mature enough to know what he is saying or doing.

However, following the death of world iconic peace leader Nelson Mandela, Mahathir just had to evoke bewilderment by claiming to be like him.

And Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak also couldn’t resist jumping onto the bandwagon by shocking Malaysians and the world with his claim that “Umno’s struggle is the same as Mandela’s”.

The content of the above visual was found in Facebook, the world’s most populated digital network, on Dec 11. There are many such innovative visuals appearing on Facebook daily, and you can be rest assured of many more to come. Some have subtle meanings, like the one above, others are unkind and sarcastic.

There are also others that are too extreme to even be repeated in writing.

We are living in the digital Information Communications Technology (ICT) era which has landed society in a borderless environment with fast and limitless access to information.

So, to all Malaysian political leaders, is it too much to ask that the next time you wish to address the public, please think carefully. Do yourselves a favour by putting more thought into the repercussions of what you may want to say.

Mahathir, at his age, is shockingly incorrigible. He continues to indulge in doublespeak without blinking an eye.

He remains unperturbed by the many snide, unkind remarks, brickbats against him that appear in the public domain. Perhaps, that’s so because he chooses to hear and see only what he wants.

To redeem himself of much lost integrity and respect of many Malaysians, I suggest he first put his house in order by guiding his racist Perkasa “babies” on the right path.

As their adviser, that is the least he can do now. Malaysians also have Perkasa to thank for the “honour” bestowed by a global study ranking Malaysia as among countries faring worst in faith-based discrimination.

The Freethought Report 2013, issued on Dec 10, listed Malaysia in the same league as Afghanistan, Iran, Maldives, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen.

One wonders how this “honour” is going to affect potential foreign tourists and Malaysia’s tourism earnings.

And last but not least, for heaven’s sake, Mahathir, please don’t pride yourself that the mainstream print media has published your comments on Mandela and used file pictures of you with the great man.

The mainstream media is not doing you a favour.

Those pictures were snapped when you were then the prime minister. It’s called diplomacy, not personal friend.

Bleeding the rakyat dry
Selena Tay
| December 14, 2013

The rise in living costs is the result of the government's economic mismanagement, including perhaps BN's overspending for GE13
COMMENT

Christmas is less than two weeks away, but for this columnist it is a time for juggling bills instead of singing Jingle Bells. What with the Chinese New Year coming about a month after Christmas, expenses are heavy and there is the usual flurry of end-of-the-year bills to be paid.

And then there is word going round that the price of RON95 petrol will soon be increased again, perhaps at the end of this month or next month or February the latest. The increase will be between 10 sen and 30 sen.

Each time there is some price increase, those who are affected will grumble and groan via social media. But does the government ever listen?

BN leaders constantly proclaim that we have a caring government. But is this really true? Do they ever listen to the rakyat’s complaints? If they really do care, they should engage with citizens before implementing major price increases or new taxes.

Implementing increases without first engaging with civil society shows up the government as dictatorial and unreasonable. Our so-called leaders neglect the rakyat’s interest in favour of their cronies.

Of course, nothing stays at the same price forever, but the hikes should not be burdensome, and one increase coming after another certainly does not help give any impression that the government is caring nor considerate.

Why is the government suddenly burdening the rakyat post-GE13? Has BN overspent during the hustings?

Newly-elected PAS vice president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man has called for a protest against the rise in the cost of living.

But will protest rallies change anything?

Will they stop the rise in vegetable prices, which have been soaring at a tremendous rate? Will they reduce the cost of eating at a Chinese coffee shop to what it used to be? A plate of fried kueh teow in Kepong Baru has gone up from RM4.50 to RM4.80 and looks set to go up to RM5.00 after the next hike in the RON95 price.

This columnist reiterates that the nation is in what we can call “technical bankruptcy”, which was explained in an article last month.

Chain effect

Because of this difficult situation that the nation is in, the prices of goods will have to be jacked up so that the grocery stores, mini-marts and hypermarts will make more money and pay more in taxes. Thus we are servicing the national debt when buying groceries.

Still, the best way for the government to get more money from citizens is to increase the price of petrol and electricity because everyone will then be hit in a chain effect.

The BR1M money, which has been increased from RM500 to RM650 for payout next year, is a pittance. It should at least be RM800 and perhaps RM1,000 for the low-income group.

This country relies a lot on domestic consumption to power the economy. Therefore, by the end of next year, people will be hoarding or stocking up in anticipation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST), which is to be launched on April 1, 2015. This means that immediately after GST is implemented, there will be a lull in spending on certain goods, especially among low-wage earners.

The economy will get back to status quo only after some months.

The Chinese Year of the Wood Horse, which begins on Jan 31, will see prices galloping and consumers wearing their belts more tightly from February. In fact, people have already begun to spend less on luxury items.

Year-end expenses will especially be hefty for people with schoolgoing children. We pity the many low-income parents with many children.

All this distress that citizens are suffering is due to the government’s mismanagement of the nation’s economy.

In 2007, the national debt stood at RM267 billion but it ballooned up to over RM500 billion last year. What gives? What happened? How come it has soared to such a high level in just five years? There must be something wrong somewhere.

The government is simply bleeding the rakyat dry.

And now even GST is touted as a people-friendly tax. The government’s infomercials say that with GST we pay only one type of tax instead of two, as in the Sales and Service Taxes. But then not everyone pays these two taxes all the time since they are levied only in hotels and some restaurants. The government is being economical with the truth about the GST in order to hoodwink the public.

The government does not have to be caring. It needs only to be responsible. It must pay the price of its mismanagement not by burdening the rakyat, but by using revenues from oil and the sale of offshore assets and properties.

brother fairjimmy, there's more to corruption that affects the Malaysians.

Bleeding the rakyat dry
Selena Tay

The rise in living costs is the result of the government's economic mismanagement, including perhaps BN's overspending for GE13
COMMENT

Christmas is less than two weeks away, but for this columnist it is a time for juggling bills instead of singing Jingle Bells. What with the Chinese New Year coming about a month after Christmas, expenses are heavy and there is the usual flurry of end-of-the-year bills to be paid.

And then there is word going round that the price of RON95 petrol will soon be increased again, perhaps at the end of this month or next month or February the latest. The increase will be between 10 sen and 30 sen.

Each time there is some price increase, those who are affected will grumble and groan via social media. But does the government ever listen?

BN leaders constantly proclaim that we have a caring government. But is this really true? Do they ever listen to the rakyat’s complaints? If they really do care, they should engage with citizens before implementing major price increases or new taxes.

Implementing increases without first engaging with civil society shows up the government as dictatorial and unreasonable. Our so-called leaders neglect the rakyat’s interest in favour of their cronies.

Of course, nothing stays at the same price forever, but the hikes should not be burdensome, and one increase coming after another certainly does not help give any impression that the government is caring nor considerate.

Why is the government suddenly burdening the rakyat post-GE13? Has BN overspent during the hustings?

Newly-elected PAS vice president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man has called for a protest against the rise in the cost of living.

But will protest rallies change anything?

Will they stop the rise in vegetable prices, which have been soaring at a tremendous rate? Will they reduce the cost of eating at a Chinese coffee shop to what it used to be? A plate of fried kueh teow in Kepong Baru has gone up from RM4.50 to RM4.80 and looks set to go up to RM5.00 after the next hike in the RON95 price.

This columnist reiterates that the nation is in what we can call “technical bankruptcy”, which was explained in an article last month.

Chain effect

Because of this difficult situation that the nation is in, the prices of goods will have to be jacked up so that the grocery stores, mini-marts and hypermarts will make more money and pay more in taxes. Thus we are servicing the national debt when buying groceries.

Still, the best way for the government to get more money from citizens is to increase the price of petrol and electricity because everyone will then be hit in a chain effect.

The BR1M money, which has been increased from RM500 to RM650 for payout next year, is a pittance. It should at least be RM800 and perhaps RM1,000 for the low-income group.
