People just have to live by their choice if it's truly their choice determines the winner of the election and not perfidious ballot.
The rest can be argued on policy, corruption level, leadership and type of government you and I want.....hopefully it's not one filled with hooligan and gangsterism for our day to day.....
"PETALING JAYA: Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has been urged to clarify how a RM6.3bil mega project was awarded to a company that was only formed after the closing date for the submission of proposal.
Activist Ong Eu Soon said the closing date for the submission of proposal for major road and tunnel projects in Penang was June 2012.
However, checks with the Companies Commission showed that Consortium Zenith BUCG Sdn Bhd, which was awarded the project, was only set up on July 5 last year, he added.
How our ikan bilis business want to challenge their business :( Got project directly set up SDN BHD,1 more year delete the SDN. As we have to climb up from enterprise to BHD is like climbing Kinabalu mountain.
If the headlines is coming from TheStar or TV3 or RTM, rest assured its a one way channel. If the answer is a positive one it will not get published....
What is seditious act in Malaysia? It looks to me the act Which was suppose to be repealled have a new lease of life. This act protects UMNO and together with the other acts, prohibits our real rule of law fr taking charge!
Sedition Act is an offence itself is made in England. It is part of the common law of England It was created to protect the British monarch and the British Empire from being criticised or vilified The law on sedition came about during a period when kings and queens were believed to have divine powers and they were believed to be god-sent and as such the laws dispensed by them were unquestionable and criticism of rulers were seen as sinful and unlawful Today this believe is no longer true and is seen as foolish.
Oh we have Indon Malays, Myanmar Malays, Bangladeshi Malays,Pakistani Malays and latest was Sulu Malays. They all share the same status and benefits of the real Malays. The real Malays are not gaining on what they should be as their piece of pie was only left with crumbles to enjoy. So just look at the majority of Malays now. Are they a better people today? Instead these foreign 'Malays' are dominating every business sectors and some even monopolising local markets and shun the locals from doing businesses
BN menuduh bahawa dasar air percuma 20m3 akan membankruptkan Selangor. Tetapi selepas 5 tahun dan subsidi sebanyak RM650 juta kepada rakyat, Selangor bukan sahaja tidak bankrupt, kewangan negeri telah menjadi lebih sihat dan cergas.
BN songlap wang rakyat semasa memimpin. Pakatan memulangkan kekayaan kepada rakyat.
Anda pilih siapa?
Kerajaan Selangor mampu memberikan subsidi sebanyak RM130 juta setiap tahun kepada rakyat Selangor tanpa membebankan kewangan kerajaan. Malah, kerajaan Selangor telah mencapai rekod lebihan bajet sebanyak RM180 juta pada tahun 2012.
Pencapaian cemerlang ini hanya terjadi kerana pimpinan Pakatan yang jujur dan telus. Projek kerajaan ditender secara terbuka, projek yang membazirkan dibatalkan dan hutang kroni dikutip sepenuhnya.
Selain daripada air percuma, Selangor juga melaksanakan Skim Mesra Usia Emas, peruntukan tetap untuk sekolah-sekolah yang dipinggirkan oleh kerajaan pusat, Tabung Warisan Anak Selangor, Hadiah Anak Masuk Universiti, Skim Mikrokredit dan lain-lain program kemasyarakatan dan kebajikan. Skim-skim ini merupakan skim baru membantu rakyat Selangor yang tidak pernah dijalankan oleh kerajaan BN.
Kerajaan Pakatan telah membuktikan kemantapan pentadbiran dan pengurusan kewangan negeri, dan menunjukkan bahawa rakyat akan bermanfaat besar jika kerajaan tidak rasuah dan bazir seperti zaman BN.
Konsesi tol 50-tahun RM1.55b dianugerahkan kepada AZRB tanpa sebarang tender dengan pinjaman mudah RM635juta.
Konsesi tol Lebuhraya Pantai Barat 60-tahun RM5.2b ditawarkan kepada Europlus secara rundingan terus. Kerajaan masih memberikan pinjaman mudah RM2.24b dan subsidi RM980j kepada syarikat tersebut.
Kerajaan BN cuba sedaya upaya untuk membantu kroni-kroni mereka mencapai keuntungan lumayan berbilion-bilion. Manakala rakyat jelata disuap bayaran BR1M RM500. Inilah dasar "Kroni Didahulukan" BN.
'M'sian gov't financed smear campaign on opposition'
"...thanks to a disclosure form filed on Jan 24 with the US Department of Justice by Joshua Trevino... we now know that the Malaysian government was behind the most recent effort to smear the political opposition and its leadership." John Mallot
The campaign, which involved payments of nearly US$400,000 to Trevino and over US$130,000 to ten right-wing American bloggers, was conducted on behalf of Apco and later FBC Media.
In his official filing, Trevino (right) wrote that Apco and FBC Media received their funding from "the government of Malaysia, the ruling party, or interests closely aligned with either."
We know from Apco's filings with the Justice Department that the funding came from the government. Other sources, particularly the investigative work of Sarawak Report, indicate the same for FBC Media. The Malaysian government paid for both of them.
[...]
Why did all these people - all right wing, conservative bloggers, with no knowledge of Malaysia and no history of writing about foreign affairs - suddenly start writing about Malaysia?
From the very beginning, it was clear that "something was up." Everyone suspected the government's hand - and now Joshua Trevino has confirmed it.
And once again, millions of the taxpayers' money have been wasted on a failed effort.
Trevino says the goal was to influence Malaysian opinion, not American.
Clearly, that has failed. Because millions of dollars later, despite all the effort and all the smears, there is a real chance that Anwar and the opposition might come to power.
If we have learned anything from this, it is that the Malaysian government should stop wasting the taxpayers' money on schemes pitched to it by foreign PR firms.
JOHN R MALOTT was the US Ambassador to Malaysia, 1995-1998, and continues to follow developments in that country closely.
Selangor semasa zaman BN telah menswastakan perkhidmatan kutipan sampah kepada syarikat Alam Flora Sdn Bhd tanpa sebarang tender. Pada 2010, selepas konsesi Alam Flora tamat tempohnya, kerajaan PR Selangor telah memperkenalkan tender terbuka yang diuruskan oleh setiap majlis perbandaran (PBT).
Akibat dasar telus dan terbuka, rakyat Selangor dapat penjima...tan sebanyak RM81 juta setiap tahun!
Anda pilih siapa?
Anda pilih siapa?
Anda pilih siapa?
Kerajaan BN mempunyai dasar menswastakan segala perkhidmatan kerajaan - seperti air, pengangkutan, jalanraya dll - yang boleh mendatangkan keuntungan lumayan kepada kroni-kroni mereka. Segala proses penswastaan adalah tidak telus dan tidak melalui sebarang tender terbuka untuk mendapat mutu tertinggi dengan kos paling rendah.
Perkhidmatan pengutipan sampah di negeri Selangor telah diswastakan kepada Alam Flora pada tahun 90-an, syarikat milik DRB-Hicom di mana Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary merupakan pemilik saham terbesar.
Selepas Pakatan mengambil-alih kerajaan Selangor, apabila konsesi Alam Flora tamat, Menteri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim cuba merunding semula konsesi untuk menurunkan kos kepada kerajaan. Akan tetapi, rundingan tersebut gagal dan Alam Flora memulangkan konsesi tersebut kepada kerajaan.
Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim tidak cuba menswastakan konsesi tersebut kepada mana-mana pihak yang tertentu. Sebaliknya, beliau mengarah supaya perkhidmatan ini ditender terbuka secara terus oleh setiap PBT kepada kontraktor-kontraktor kecil. Dasar ini bukan sahaja dapat memberikan peluang secara langsung kepada kontraktor kecil tanpa "orang tengah" yang memakan komisen, ia juga mendatangkan penjimatan besar kepada kerajaan sebanyak RM81 juta setiap tahun!
Pada awalnya, semasa penyesuaian dan perlaksanaan dasar baru ini mendatangkan sedikit kerumitan kepada rumahtangga di Selangor. Akan tetapi, segala masalah telahpun dibereskan dan mutu perkhidmatan sekarang tidak kurang atau lebih baik daripada zaman BN, dengan kos yang jauh lebih rendah.
Kerajaan-kerajaan Pakatan akan menjalankan tender terbuka untuk semua projek kerajaan, tak kira samada penswastaan atau perolehan. Penjimatan beratus-ratus juta setiap tahun dapat dipulangkan kepada rakyat dengan infrastructure yang lebih baik dan bayaran kebajikan kepada pihak berkeperluan yang lebih tinggi.
Kalau kerajaan negeri yang begitu kecil bajetnya dapat menjimatkan beratus-ratus juta, apatah lagi kalau PR dapat menguasai Putrajaya yang mempunyai bajet 150 kali-ganda bajet Selangor.
Pulau Pinang di bawah PR dipimpin oleh Ketua Menteri Lim Guan Eng, jelas cekap, bersih dan bebas dari pengaruh penyeleweng. Manakala, mantan Ketua Menteri BN Tan Sri Koh Tsu Koon lebih dikenali sebagai boneka UMNO, sehingga tidak berani me...ngambil tindakan ke atas ahli UMNO yang membakar gambar beliau.
Anda pilih siapa?
Kerajaan Negeri Pakatan Rakyat Pulau Pinang di bawah pimpinan Lim Guan Eng sejak 2008 telah melaksanakan dasar "Cekap, Akauntabel & Telus". Pencapaian Pulau Pinang dipuji oleh Transparency International, Kerajaan pertama di Malaysia yang memperoleh pengiktirafan tersebut.
Pada masa yang sama, Pulau Pinang mengalami pertumbuhan ekonomi yang pesat dengan pelaburan tertinggi di Malaysia berturut-turut pada 2010 dan 2011.
Ini menunjukkan bahawa sesebuah pentadbiran negeri yang melaksanakan dasar tender terbuka dapat memperkayakan rakyat jelata.
Ini berbanding dengan pentadbiran di bawah Tan Sri Koh Tsu Koon sejak 1990 ke 2008 di mana beliau gagal membanteras ekonomi kroni yang telah menyebabkan kerugian dan pembaziran perbelanjaan wang rakyat. Projek kerajaan negeri ditawarkan secara rundingan terus dengan kroni UMNO BN tanpa sebarang tender, dan kontraktor yang cekap dan murah dipinggirkan. Akibat pentadbiran yang lemah, pelaburan dan peluang pekerjaan kian merosot sebelum 2008.
Kemajuan Pulau Pinang adalah terbukti dan ini menunjukkan bahawa PR lebih handal daripada BN untuk mengurus kerajaan demi kepentingan rakyat dari segi ekonomi, kebajikan dan keadilan.
Walaupun Suruhanjaya Pengecah Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) cuba sedaya-upaya untuk memperkaitkan Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim dengan rasuah dan tuduhan-tuduhan liar, akhirnya SPRM terpaksa mengaku bahawa beliau adalah bersih.
Pada masa yang sama, mantan MB Selangor, Dato' Seri Mohd Khir Toyo didapati berasuah oleh Mahkamah kerana berpeluang membeli rumah mewah dengan harga yang terlalu murah daripada pihak kontraktor yang telah diberi pelbagai kontrak daripada kerajaan negeri semasa beliau memimpin, dari tahun 2000 sehingga 2008.
Apakah yang akan terjadi kepada kekayaan Selangor jikalau Khir Toyo menang dalam pilihanraya 2008 tidak dapat terfikir. Masalah pimpinan UMNO sekarang begitu rumit sehingga presiden UMNO Datuk Seri Najib Razak terpaksa dilantik sebagai Pengarah Pilihanraya Selangor BN kerana tiada pimpinan UMNO Selangor yang setanding dengan imej bersih Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim.
Dan kalaulah, PR tewas di Selangor dalam PRU-13 yang akan datang seperti yang dijangka dan diharapkan oleh pemimpin UMNO, maka hartanah kerajaan Selangor akan sekali lagi diselewengkan kepada pemimpin dan kroni-kroni BN.
Rakyat negara ini sepatutnya bersyukur dan bangga ditambah lagi sepatutnya kita rasa bertuah kerana dikurniakan Perdana Menteri yang bijak,pandai ,"BERHUTANG", dengan jumlah hutang negara terkini mencecah RM 501,607,000,000 ,hebat bukan?
Setelah disemak melalui Bank Negara Malaysia,Hutang Negara yang telah dikemaskini pada 14 Mac 2013 berjumlah RM 501,607,000,000..
Bayangkan jika sepenggal lagi ...Malaysia di tadbir Dato Seri Najib Tun Razak,tidak mustahil Hutang negara boleh mencapai 1 trilion,
(akan di kemaskini)
RM 501,607,000,000 jika macai-macai mandapat tahu perkara ini,jawapan mereka adalah bukan banyak pun jumlah tu,ataupun ini semua Fitnah,ataupun ini salah Anwar..anwar ejen BNM lah ejen bermacam ejen lagi..
Why did MM discriminate & punish the Chinese? Because he had some bad experiences/incidences with some Chinese in his younger days. When Mahathir was a student, he was offended by the Chinese in school and in the University and some business towkays. He held old grudges and vowed for revenge. Knowing the Malays in Malaysia are the majority race, he schemed and changed the law to suit himself and changed himself to be a Malay. It is a fact, that he is the son of an Indian who migrated from Kerala and he is a 100% Indian . Knowing that the Malays are a simple-minded race, and needed a leader, he conveniently placed himself to be the champion of the Malays. He made himself a Malay and took over the power as PM. As Malays have a very loving and accepting nature, they took Mahathir in as one of them. Instead of being grateful to them, he has betrayed their trust. (READ : http://www.malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/from-around-the-blogs/38902-dr-ms-memoir-the-luxury-of-being-malay-and-un-malay). He also create hatred and animosity between the races by INVENTING well-known terms specially designed to benefit himself as we know: BUMIPUTRA, NEP and SOCIAL CONTRACT. He is no champion for the Malays as we have found out that he plundered and wasted the national wealth. His sons are now Billionaires and have control of two oil fields from Petronas. READ ABOUT IT : http://malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/newscommentaries/52619-dr-m-i-told-petronas-to-enrich-my-son He personally created NEP, and in the process improvished the Chinese race and enriched himself and his cronies. He took away all the rights and benefits of the non-Malays and left the non-Malays to rot. Only a few Chinese cronies have benefited from him, as he used them to siphon out billion of ringgits. Up to today, he still holds hatred for the Chinese. Looking at his blog, you will realise he is such a evil man that he would go to such lengths to destroy the Chinese race. A very unforgiving man, who used his hatred to hold on to power.
many greedy people are victims of this BIG gold scheme. But there are also people whom benefits from it. The snake might be one of the one benefits from this scheme.
Brother KC Loh, I guess the temperature is getting hotter with each passing day. People seems to be getting frustrated with what the UMNO goons had been doing like threatening to burn down Party Keadilan Party HQ, etc, etc and yet no police action taken and Perkasa saying all sorts of things detrimental to the well being of the Malaysian public, etc, etc & no action had been taken by the authorities even though countless reports had been made but when says things against UMNO/BN, then strong action is taken immediately...so brother, don't blame them as the people really feel frustrated & no here to turn to. How do you like to be in their shoes but then you a very strong supporter of BN/UMNO/MCA, I guess you are immune to this type of feelings......in fact the opposite is perhaps your thought, like let them get or have it perhaps, haa haa haa
...and the Chinese people too see what MCA had been doing too....carrying UMNO balls all the time, 50 over years, & never had the Chinese people interest at heart....now how does that make you feel?
