KPRU: UMNO 2013 will potentially suffer the fate of MCA in 2008
Think tank Political Studies for Change (KPRU) predicts that UMNO will lose a lot of Parliamentary seats currently contested for 5th May 2013 just as MCA lost their seats on the 8th of May 2008.
KPRU made these predictions based on several factors. The first factor relates closely to the fall in Barisan Nasional (BN) President, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s popularity as opposed to the steady rise of Pakatan Rakyat (PAKATAN)’s leader, Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
A survey conducted by University Malaya Centre for Democracy and Elections (Umcedel) found that that Najib’s qualification to hold the reign as a Prime Minister has fallen in which only 39 percent of respondents believes Najib deserves to be the Prime Minister as opposed to Anwar Ibrahim which gained as much as 43 percent on the same survey. This is a fall of 4 percent from the survey conducted in early 2013. This is in line with the increase of trust in PAKATAN to become the new government post 13th General Election (GE13).
Just as MCA lost its support significantly during the 2008 General Election, UMNO has lost its support significantly during 2013 General Election. And for that, BN’s campaign strategy for an individual known as Najib is to portray him as a good leader even though he has no courage to face Anwar Ibrahim in a debate on policies and each other’s manifestos while broadcasted live through the television.
The second factor is the failure of the 1Malaysia to raise the living standards of Malaysians. Najib announced that the poverty rate have fallen to a mere 1.7 percent. Yet, it is predicted that the real number of the poverty rate in Malaysia is actually 19 percent, taking into account the household income and the 2009 Basic Amenities Survey Report by the Malaysian Statistics Department. At the same time, the BN government had to spend as much as RM3 billion for the 1Malaysia People’s Assistance (BR1M). Also to be noted is the 60 percent of public servants are financially incapable to purchase a house as well as the failure of the First Home Scheme that failed to assist the young adults to purchase their first homes.
The 1Malaysia brand is also seen as a failure of Najib’s when approximately 250 1Malaysia People’s Shop (KR1M) is opened all across the country to provide cheap items to Malaysians. Najib also plans to open another 57 KR1M shops across the country. This also means the Malaysians are financially incapacitated to purchase quality products at affordable prices as BN has to open more sundry shops that sell cheap items at lower prices at supermarkets such as Giant, Aeon and 99 Speedmart.
The third factor is the individual called Anwar Ibrahim whom has a better reputation that Najib in terms of the ability to administer this country’s finances and new policies could bring about reforms in line with contemporary demands.
In 2007, Malaysia’s debt was RM267 billion. In 2013, the debt have jumped to RM502 billion. During Anwar Ibrahim’s tenure as Finance Minister, the country’s deficit was actually turned into surpluses as with in 1998 before he was fired, Malaysia gained a 2.4 percent in surpluses. This surplus then became deficit right after Anwar was fired from his position. This as opposed to the deficit rate under Najib that shot up to 5.4 percent in 2010.
As for Malaysia’s workforce, Najib also failed to raise the number of skilled employees in this country considering the fact that 80 percent of workforce in this country is only armed with a Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) certificate. Also to be noted is that Anwar Ibrahim has a better reputation in the eyes of the public. An example of this situation are the Indians having no interest whatsoever in the Anwar Ibrahim’s personal life and views the sex scandal towards Anwar as a mere dirty political trick of UMNO’s. Coming back to Najib’s reputation, the government’s decision under the guise of the Public Prosecutors’ Office, the sex trial against Anwar actually stains Najib and his administration as a cheap and dirty political tactic.
Indians are not the only one to not care about Anwar Ibrahim’s personal life. According to the survey conducted by Umcedel, 54 percent of Malay respondents concurred that Anwar deserves more to become a Prime Minister as opposed to Najib who only gained 28 percent in the same question.
The fourth factor that will influence the results of GE13 are Najib’s weak policies and his inability to have a stand firm on his decisions. This follows the sample of 10 failed policies of Najib’s administration as reported by KPRU[1] prior to this. Amongst the failed 10 policies of Najib include the Lynas controversy, the failed share swap between Malaysia Airlines and Air Asia to the failed Public Service New Remuneration Scheme (SBPA) after rejections made by the public sector.

U know u did the studies? Sure lah PR supporters. U know who are the respondendts.Sure lah the PR supporters. Do I believe n trust? DEFINITELY NO ler!!!
Ranger, really represent BN.... Raciest, Rasuah and Idiot...
Nothing else. everyday raciest issues. Come on... Try to announce all the BN's minister's properties like PR do. We want action not just bla bla bla with mouth. Everyone can speak but not everyone can do.
Bla bla bla like i save money since i was young.... i dont know wat my husband bela lembu....
come on.... shame of you. Treat our malaysian like we are 5 years old child.
If you support BN, you are their crony or you are idiot.
We hope the Sarawak Investors wake up for long time sleep. Hope they are able to read all this from the i3investor forum. Please vote wisely for your children and grand children. Please.
The MACC can't even touch this man, Why? Because the Barang Naik needs its vote! Get rid of Barang Naik, and you will take away this tyrant who always say you sarawakian are poor because you are stupid. Watch video carefully.
大选结果当然会冲击股市。What the PAS dominating government will do
I can expect what the PAS dominating government will do:1: to abolish all Najib policies which are considered as pro China or pro Chinese. Including trade and business policies which are considered favorable to the Chinese only.(Its an open secret that the American support Anwar) 2. Impose stricter control on education ,implement higher quota for bumi in all fields(just like what they did in Kedah) in order to ensure absolute control of Muslim at all level .3.Stricter control of cultural ,entertainment activities …which are considered not conform with Islamic values. 4 Implement the Hudup law and Islamic values at all level.
Can DAP raise objection? No, PAS no need the DAP support to carry out their policies. When PAS become strong in parliament, they can invite those UMNO MPs who are not happy with Najib policies to join them. With the Chinese support, Umno can form government, without the Chinese support, umno members who want to remain in power,the only way is to join PAS.
Don call me BN crony, read the statement by Norman Fenandez(deputy DAP chairman di Johor.) : quoted below,; The senior DAP leader said “non-Muslims must realise that PAS will do what it has set out to do if it gains power”. The question for non-Muslims is whether non-Muslims are prepared to risk it all with PAS.}He appeal voters not to vote PAS. BN is not perfect, but they have extensive experiment in handling multi races and multi religion issues which is most important in a country like Malaysia,do you think PAS people are more liberal than BN? For me, PAS just care about the Islamic values,they don’t care the so called consultation, compromise. cooperation, understanding, or tolerance …you can see it what happen in Egypt and other countries.

Choose economy stability...intact policies...every one happy...later can fight maa...but always economy first...no economy, how to cari makan maaa...

PETALING JAYA: The Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (ASLI), a private think-tank, says the ruling Barisan Nasional will win the 13th general election (GE13) and that much of the support among rural Malays, which was absent in 2008, has returned to Umno and Barisan Nasional.
In its analysis presented yesterday, ASLI said BN is expected to win 123 to 135 seats in the next elections on this basis, but could reach as high as 150 if Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak can attract Indian and undecided Chinese voters as well. “From my interpretation of the research if the swing of Malay rural voters to Umno is strong, then the battle for rural Malay votes will favour BN.
“The coming election will basically be decided by rural voters in rural constituencies,” ASLI’s CEO /director Michael Yeoh Oon Khing told The Malaysian Reserve in an e-mail interview yesterday. “Nevertheless, what can be certain is that the two big winners in the coming elections that are expected to be on April 14 or 21, will be Umno and the DAP.”
Yeoh said trends showed Indian rural and semi-urban voters have shifted back to BN while urban voters of all races are still with the opposition. Undecided voters would pay close attention to choice of candidates and how the campaign unfolds to make their choice. ASLI says it is confident that Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud would deliver 100% of Parti Pesaka Bumiputera seats, giving the majority to win Sarawak while it is confident that Umno should do well in Sabah, leading BN to regain control of the state government.
The analysis said the Pakatan Rakyat coalition should retain Kelantan and Penang, but BN could regain Penang if there is solid Malay backing and if the MCA and Gerakan could win just four more seats. ASLI is neutral on Selangor, saying that the battle for that state would be the toughest. It is confident on BN winning Kedah and Perak on the back of support from the Malay swingback to Umno, adding that DAP will still hold on to its Chinese majority seats in Perak.
The report ended by presenting scenarios of post-election realignment possibilities such as Umno and PAS or Umno and DAP. The analysis was done based on telephone interviews and discussions with different groups as well as other surveys done by other researchers, said Yeoh, adding that the demographics are broad-based covering different ages and ethnic groups.
In a related news, an online media highlighted a Morgan Stanley Research report that said: “If the ruling BN loses by winning less than 50% of the seats up for grabs, investors would likely see this as a ‘negative risk event’.” It added that BN losing would affect leadership and government stability thereby “postponing the reform agenda undertaken by the country in the near term until political stability is restored”.
Ranger, You said: They don't even have track records to run a govt. I'm afraid the country will go haywire should they run the federal govt. All they say is 'TRIAL & ERROR'.
Answer: What does BN have in their track record to run a good government? Croniyism for last 50 years due to concentration of power? Corruption to the core between family members and close friends of benefits? Crimes and terrorism? Encouragement of establishment of rempits? Cheating ands scams? Market monopolies?
whether somebody has the ability to rule country is not depend on experiences,but the ability of the guy to thinks like a normal person.obviously,BN only has the first, not the second criteria. I think I can simply do much better than anyone of them from BN.seriously, bn dun have the strategy, direction to develop Malaysia...
Undilah BN, Andai anda ingin mengkayakan kerabat dan kroni mereka
Undilah BN, Andai anda inginkan undang-undang demokrasi terus dicabul dan ditelanjangkan oleh puak mereka.
Undilah BN, Andai anda ingin menambahkan lagi hutang negara yang sudah sampai ke tahap yang menakutkan.
Undilah BN, Andai inginkan anak-anak anda terus dibelenggu hutang piutang hanya untuk secangkir ilmu sedang pemimpin anda rakus meratah kekayaan negara.
Undilah BN, Andai anda rela korupsi terus menerus menjadi asam garam pemimpin negara. Kapal selam dibeli jadi hiasan. Stadium dibina runtuh menyembah. Hutang piutang ditanggung rakyat.
Undilah BN, Andai anda inginkan perkauman terus disuburi dibajai. Islam terus dijadikan alat untuk menfobiakan kaum lain. Akhirnya, agama jadi candu untuk menghalalkan yang haram.
Undilah BN! Andai anda inginkan negara keadilan dan kebajikan terus terkubur!!
All ranger can play around is raciest issue....Really sad.
PR dont have experience? Then Pulau Pinang is what? Br1m is what? BN? Followed what DAP do from behind. BR1M 2.0 given because of Himpunan 428 which force BN to postpone the election last year.
All thanks to PR to let our Rakyat to compare which party can perform better.
Kotor admit kotor la....But still want to pretend like Bersih.
Cakap perangi rasuah. Harta menteri pun tak berani umum.
(Kenyataan di bawah terjemahan daripada seorang pengundi Shah Alam Azmi Arshad yang dipaparkan di laman Facebook beliau. )
Ini adalah respon saya terhadap ucapan / emel Lim Guan Eng yang dianggap oleh para penyokongnya sebagai ‘menyentuh perasaan’ dan ‘bertenaga. Saya tidak pasti, di bahagian mana yang mereka anggap sebagai ‘menyentuh perasaan’ itu. Saya sangat berharap agar pilihan raya kali ini akan memihak kepada kita agar kita dapat meneruskan kehidupan seperti biasa.
Sebab itulah saya rasa bertanggungjawab untuk memberi respon bagi menegakkan kebenaran, menolak penipuan, tuduhan, cacian dan separuh kebenaran.
Respon saya ini tidak berhasrat untuk menyinggung sesiapa tetapi hanya mahu menyangkal setiap sindiran, dakwaan dan tuduhan-tuduhan dari LGE. Mungkin dengan kata-kata itulah yang dimaksudkan sebagai ucapan ‘menyentuh hati’; langsung tidak menyatakan sebarang kejayaan Kerajaan selama ini. Saya faham, mungkin itulah politik. Tetapi sebagai rakyat, kita tidak boleh mempercayai pemimpin yang sering melampaui batas atau langsung tidak menghiraukan batas-batas tertentu.
Saya mengubah mana-mana bahagian dalam ucapan/ emel beliau untuk memastikan ia sentiasa ‘menyentuh perasaan’ dan ‘bertenaga’ daripada awal hinggalah akhir:
Kata LGE: “Sejak Merdeka, seramai 2 juta rakyat Malaysia telah berhijrah ke luar negara kerana mereka tidak nampak masa depan masing-masing di Malaysia. Masanya telah tiba untuk kita memastikan agar kehidupan kita tidak dibayangi dengan masa-masa lampau kita yang penuh perasaan benci dan takut. Kita perlu sentiasa memandang ke hadapan dengan harapan dan semangat keharmonian di antara rakyat Malaysia.
Terdapat banyak sebab mengapa ramai rakyat berhijrah. Rakyat dari pelbagai negara berhijrah ke negara lain. Bukan hanya Malaysia. Antara di antaranya yang memilih kehidupan Barat, ada juga yang mahu mendapat pendapatan lumayan, mendapat duit yang lebih cepat, ada juga yang mahu menikmati kehidupan di luar negara, ada yang mengikut pasangan mereka berhijrah, ada yang mencari jodoh, ada yang memilih sistem pendidikan dari negara lain, ada yang melakukannya kerana alasa politik, ada yang mahu melarikan diri dari Ah Long manakala ada juga yang hanya mahukan perubahan dan ada juga yang mahu memaksimumkan perniagaan mereka dan pelbagai alasan lain lagi. (Cari alasan-alasan lain di Google).
Tidak kira apa pun alasan dan punca mereka, adalah sangat menyedihkan apabila anda memberi gambaran kepada rakyat Malaysia yang lain dan masyarakat antarabangsa seolah-olah mereka ditakdirkan tinggal di negara mereka hingga ke akhir hayat mereka. Ini sebenarnya tidak benar sama sekali. Sebetulnya ramai yang meninggalkan negara kerana anda memupuk kebencian dan ketakutan dalam diri mereka.
Kata LGE: “Untuk meletakkan kenangan lampau di belakang kita, politik perkauman dan agama perlu dihentikan.”
Tapi Tuan, anda adalah individu yang bertanggungjawab membangkitkan isu penggunaan kalimah Allah ketika isu itu dilihat semakin dilupakan, walaupun anda tahu yang ia sangat sensitif untuk orang Islam. Kenapa anda masih beria-ia memainkan isu ini? Kenapa tidak mahu menggunakan perkataan ‘Tuhan’ dan masih mahu menggunakan ‘Allah’ dalam kitab Injil berbahasa Melayu?
Kenapa anda mengenepikan sensitiviti umat Islam? Kenapa anda memilih untuk menyinggung perasaan umat Islam? Saya rasa terkejut bila anda menggesa supaya ‘politik perkauman dan agama dihentikan’ sedangkan parti andalah yang sentiasa memainkan strategi berkenaan meskipun anda sering menuding jari kepada BN/UMNO sedangkan mereka hanya mempertahankan setiap tuduhan berunsur provokasi daripada anda.
Kata LGE: Untuk melupakan kenangan lampau, kita perlu menghentikan rasuah.
Saya sangat bersetuju dengan anda bahawa kita perlu mencegah kegiatan rasuah. BN juga bersetuju dengan anda sebab itulah dalam manifesto BN kali ini ada menyatakan bahawa Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) akan bekerja keras untuk memastikan kegiatan rasuah dapat dicegah. Mengapa anda tidak menyokong usaha Kerajaan itu, tetapi sebaliknya sering mengutuk dan memperlekehkan usaha mereka?
Dan kenapa anda tidak melakukan apa-apa ketika DAP di Selangor dikaitkan dengan budaya rasuah yang berleluasa sehingga dikaitkan dengan kematian Teoh Beng Hock? Kenapa DAP tidak membenarkan contoh DNA diambil dari suspek di kalangan ahli DAP yang dikaitkan dengan pembunuhan itu? Kerajaan telah melabur banyak wang ringgit dan masa untuk membersihkan segala-galanya tetapi DAP juga perlu melakukan sesuatu dalam pentadbiran mereka bagi memastikan gejala rasuah dapat dicegah ( di mana tuduhan itu dilemparkan oleh ahli parti anda sendiri terhadap pemimpin tertinggi DAP).
Respond bodoh Azmi tak selaras dengan apa dibuat oleh BN. "Terdapat banyak sebab mengapa ramai rakyat berhijrah.... " Response tok bang babi pertama, kalu begitu kenapa Pok Jib nok tubuhkan Talent Corporation jika tak prihatin terhadap masaalah tersebut atau pun koncu2 nya nok buat duit tok diri kerana berjuta2 dan berguni2 duit dah belanja tok Talent Corp?
Respon kedua, Semenjak tahun 1970, bila Sekolah Rendah dan Menengah Ingeris dihapuskan dan ditukarkan bahasa penghantaranya ke BM, ramai penduduk2 kampung yang beragama kristian di Sabah dan Sarawak hanya mengunakan bahasa tunggal dan rasmi ia itu BM. Dah 40 tahun kitab injin dalam BM telah dipergunakan dan sekarang ni dah ramai orang2 Kristian Sabah dan Sarawak telah berhijrah ke Barat semenanjung kerana tiada peluang pekerjaan di tempat asal membawalah kepercayaan dan Gereja mereka bersama2.Kerajaan BN bukan tak tahu orang bumiputra kristian ni dah lama dan turun menurun mengunakan BM di Kitab Injin mereka. Kenapa diam berpuloh2 tahun!!!!! hingga sekarang saja nok cari pasal.
Mengapakah menjolok sarang terbuan sekarang? Kerana timbulnya politik anti kristian dan rasis UMNO/BN pada masa kuasanya semakin lemah dikalangan melayu setelah PRU Ke12.
Cara yang mudah tok selesaikan perkara kalimah allah, kita tukar bahasa pengantaran kapada Ingeris sekarang. Kita biarkan orang melayu mengunakan Allah secara exclusif.
I don't know what to say about Malaysians. Got money into pocket everything also can. Most Malaysians(very few which are not) are self centered selfish people who only takes good care of their own skin.This kind of people will only vote for themselves.
I also believe that many Malaysian politicians are also like that. Every one of them have a price no matter how staunch a supporter he/she is for a party. With the right price you can buy him/her over to your side.
Becoming a DUN or MP is considered a luxury for Malaysians to strike rich. Not becuase of the official pay or the lifetime pension, they are showered with lots of unofficial side incomes that make them millionaires.
The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) is allegedly involved in purported operations to fly in dubious voters from East Malaysia to the peninsula, PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim said today.
He said that his party has obtained photographic and documented evidence that 16 chartered flights have been flying to Peninsula everyday from various locations in East Malaysia.
He added that by polling day, at least 40,500 people would have been flown in via such flights, while passenger manifests which he claimed were in PKR’s possession reveal that the passengers are mainly foreign nationals.
Anwar also said that the party has obtained a copy of email communications within Malaysian Airlines (MAS) that made a direct reference to the PMO in relation to the chartered flights.
However copies of the said documents were not shown to the media as the party has not decided on the next course of action, said the opposition leader.
Gempar sebelum pilihan raya menjelang kurang dari lima hari lagi. Calon bebas Parlimen Pasir Mas, Datuk Ibrahim Ali telah membuat pendedahan dan kenyataan yang mendakwa Nik Aziz. Menurut Tok Him, Nik Aziz telah menggunakan kedudukan beliau sebagai MB untuk mendapatkan beberapa lot tanah yang dianggarkan berjuta ringgit.
Namun, beliau tidak berhasrat untuk melaporkan perkara ini kepada Suruhanjaya Pencegah Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM). Walau bagaimanapun, Datuk Ibrahim Ali akan bekerjasama dengan SPRM sekiranya pihak tersebut ingin menjalankan siasatan keatas perkara tersebut.
Inilah orang cakap, cakap siang pandang-pandang, cakap malam dengar-dengar. Kalau tidak sebelum ini pembangkang tak kira siapa pun ligat mengata orang UMNO dan BN ni kuat makan harta rakyat. Sekarang ini, tuhan bayar cash. Tak kira lah siapa pun dia itu. Tau-tau TGNA pun ambil kesempatan juga mengumpul harta sementara masih menjadi MB Kelantan.
Ni baru tau, patut pun dah sampai berjuta dia menyimpan harta. Rumah yang sederhana itu mungkin sekadar ingin menutup segala kekayaan dan kemewahan yang didapatkannya itu. Ingat lagi, mereka-mereka ini galak menyalak mencari kesalahan dan mereka kesilapan UMNO dan BN.
Rasanya, semua itu dilakukan bagi menutup apa yang mereka buat lah. Sudahlah memerintah dah berapa abad, sedap pula dia mengumpul harta. Kemajuan apa yang dibawa di Kelantan melainkan projek yang serba tak siap. Berapa banyak masjid yang dibina PAS selain masjid tinggalan binaan BN?
Tak mengapalah, nasib baik Tok Him orang yang gentle man. Tak mahu merosakkan mood mengundi rakyat. Yelah, kalau dibuat laporan sekarang, mau haru juga rakyat Kelantan meleleh air mata kalau terbukti betul harta yang dikumpul TGNA sampai berjuta nilainya.
Nampaknya, Tok Him pun bijak membuat keputusan. Mahu bertanding dan berkempen cara bersih. Beliau juga nampaknya mengambil pendekatan yang baik agar tidak berlaku apa-apa kekacauan melibatkan kedua-dua penyokong parti masing-masing.
Sama-samalah kita berdoa, agar pilihan raya yang bakal berlangsung beberapa hari lagi ini akan berjalan dengan aman dan bersih. Moga apa yang terjadi menjadi satu asas atau ukuran untuk apa yang akan kita lakukan pada masa hadapan.
Pilihlah dengan kewarasan akal dan keluasan minda kalian. Semoga semua rakyat Malaysia memperoleh keamanan selamanya.
