Nazri: Samseng Kabinet PM Najib

Nazri Aziz: Mengkhianati Bangsa Melayu dengan menyifatkan 'Perjuangan' sebagai "Bloody Racist"

Episod Menteri diJabatan Perdana Menetri Dato’ Seri Mohd. Nazri Tan Sri Aziz mengelar Perdana Menteri Malaysia IV Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad sebagai “Bloody Racist” kerana mempertahankan Biro Tatanegara Negara (Yang berada sebagai agensi bawah Jabatan Perdana Menteri) dan kemudian digelar pula “Bapa Perkauman” dan “Enggan meminta maaf”, apabila ditegur pelbagai pihak termasuk Timbalan Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd. Yassin dan Perdana Menteri VI Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak, menampakkan jelas keceluparan terlampau, keangkuhan, sikap tidak matang dan ketidak sopanan.

Kami menerima transkrip seorang ahli UMNO Johor yang mengambil inisiatif untuk menegur pemimpin Majlis Tertinggi UMNO ini tentang sikap dan tindakan tidak melambangkan kedudukan yang beliau sandang, dari perspektif masyarakat, politik dan hierarki pentadbiran.

Watak dalam interaksi sms ini ialah:

Sang Nila Utama – SNU: Bekas Penulis dan Moderator Kelab Maya UMNO Malaysia yang juga ahli Pergerakan Pemuda UMNO Bahagian Gelang Patah.

DS Nazri: Y.B Dato’ Seri Mohd Nazri Tan Sri Aziz, Menteri diJabatan Perdana Menteri merangkap Ahli Majlis Tertinggi UMNO dan Ahli Parlimen Padang Rengas

Kami diBigDogDotCom telah berjaya mendapatkan persetujuan SNU untuk menyiarkan interaksi sms ini agar masyarakat umum menilai sendiri sikap dan keperibadian Menteri Kabinet DiJabatan Perdana Menteri ini.

SNU:                     As’kum w.b.t, YB Dato’ Seri Mohd. Nazeri bin Tan Sri Abd. Aziz, hari ini org Melayu telah dikejutkan dgn kenyataan Dato’ Seri menyatakan YABhg Tun Dr. Mahathir sebagai racist berikutan kenyatan beliau mengenai module BTN tidakperlu dirombak. Izinkan saya menyatakan beberapa perkara dalam isu ini. 1) Tun Mahathir membuat kenyataan tersebut apabila beliau diajukan soalan oleh pemberita berikutan kenyataan pihak pembangkang mengenai module BTN yg perlu dirombak. 2) Kenyataan Tun mahathir adalah sebagai bekas seorg PM ke 4 dan Presiden UMNO ke 5 yg mana kenyataan beliau didapati menyebelahi Kerajaan BN dan UMNO di bawah kementerian JPM. 3) Tidakkah Dato’ Seri sedar bahawa module BTN selama ini adalah seiring dengan kehendak dan matlamat perjuangan bangsa Melayu sepertimana yg termaktub di dalam perlembagaan UMNO yg mulia selain menanamkan semangat jati diri dan patriotisma terhadap keseluruhan rakyat Malaysia. Ini bermakna kenyataan Dato Ser’ adalah menentang Kerajaan BN dan boleh ditafsirkan sebagai pembelot terhadap perjuangan org2 Melayu Islam melalui UMNO. Justru, saya sebagai org Melayu yg beragama Islam rakyat Malaysia yg berdaulat ingin melafazkan atas nama Allah Yg Maha Besar lagi Maha Berkuasa, atas darah pejuang2 Melayu yg mengalir kebumi bertuah ini krn menuntut kemerdekaan serta memilihar kedaulatan Melayu dan Islam dengan ini mengutuk sekeras2nya kenyataan yg dibuat oleh Dato’ Seri Mohd Nazeri terhadap YABhg Tun Dr. Mahathir sebagaimana yang tersebut selagi mana bangsa Melayu Islam wujud di muka bumi bertuah ini. Semuga Allah SWT memberi hidayah kpd Dato’ Seri untuk menginsafi diatas perbuatan yg dilihat sebagai petualang terhadap bangsa dan agama sendiri.

DS Nazri:           Sukahati awak, saya langsung tak peduli kerana yg lemahkan kerajaan melayu ialah kritikan mahadir tak henti2. Ini hak saya, dia kritik orang, jgn jadi bacul takut kritikan saya!

SNU:                     Sememangnya org yg malas berfikir akan mengatakan kritikan Tun M adalah punca Kerajaan BN lemah. Kenapa pemimpin sperti Dato’ Seri tidak mahu mengkaji fakta2 didlm kritikan Tun M betul atau salah? Sebenarnya faktor utama yg menjadikan kerajaan BN lemah adalah pemimpin UMNO yg amalkan rasuah dan berkelakukan bongkak dengan masyarakat pengundi seperti saya. Pemimpin yg bacul pula adalah pemimpin yg cepat melatah apabila berhadapan dengan kebenaran dan lebih teruk lagi apabila disergah oleh pihak pebangkang.

DS Nazri:           Awak nak jadi Tuhan, nak hukum saya apahal….? Saya ada pandangan saya, itu hak saya, kalau takut di lambung ombak jgn berumah di tepi pantai…. saya tak heranlah!

SNU:                     Nampaknya Dato; Seri melatah apabila saya menyentuh soal rasuah sehingga menuduh saya nak jadi Tuhan jatuh hukum terhadap Dato’ Seri. Kalau Dato’ Seri tidak takut dilambung ombak kenapa hanya berani kritik Tun Mahathir tanpa berhadapan dengannya utk dapatkan penjelasan lanjut dan kenapa pula kelihatan Dato’ Seri tunduk dengan desakan pembangkang dalam isu ni…? Saya tahu la kenapa Dato’ Seri tak eran dalam hal ni dan saya yakin ramai org2 politik pun tahu.

DS Nazri:           Saya bila2 masa boleh jumpa Tun. Saya tak takut siapa. Soalnya mahukah dia jumpa saya? Aturlah, beritahu saya bila dan di mana. Dan saya nak tahu apasal awak sms saya dan bukan Tun. Jadi sapa yg takut di sini.

SNU:                     Soalnya adakah Dato’ Seri sudah buat permohonan jumpa Tun M…? Jgn petikai kenapa saya sms Dato Seri’ dan bukan Tun M kerana isunya sekrg bukan nak tentukan siapa berani dan siapa bacul. Itu cara org yg tidak bertamadun dan tidak bermoral, kerana kita dalam UMNO tak amalkan budaya samseng dan kurang ajar.

DS Nazri:           Samseng tu awak, tak tamadun, saya tak kenal awak, mana awak dapat no telefon saya? Kalau jantan awak jumpa saya di parlimen sekarang.

SNU:                     Etika perjuangan tak perlu petikai dari mana dapat itu dan ini. Seseorang pejuang harus sentiasa redha hadapi apa sahaja yg hadir tanpa banyak persoalan. Lagipun saya bukan nak cari gaduh atau musuh dengan mana2 pemimpin UMNO seperti Dato’ Seri. Saya hanya gunakan hak saya sepertimana Dato’ Seri gunakan hak sendiri untuk kritik Tun M. Dato’ Seri harus ingat kedudukan dan kerusi yg Dato’ Seri perolehi sekarang adalah datangnya daripda kuasa rakyat seperti saya. Untuk berjumpa Dato’ Seri, saya tiada masalah, tetapi bukan sekarang kerana saya berada di luar KL. Insya’allah saya akan berhadapan dengan Dato’ Seri untuk menggali isi perut perjuangan yang sejati demi Melayu dan Islam.

DS Nazri:           Awak bukan rakyat dan pengundi saya, saya peduli apa. Pengundi saya kenal saya. Sebab itu saya menang 4 kali. Awak tak kenal saya jangan cuba nak ugut. Saya akan tunggu awak, jangan jadi bacul. Bagi tahu saya bila, saya akan tunggu.

SNU:                     Memang la saya bukan pengundi di tempat Dato’ Serin tetapi saya memberi gambaran bahawa saya adalah RAKYAT serta antara pengundi yang sentiasa mengundi BN setiap kali PRU dan saya juga ahli UMNO. Tak kira la tempat mana seseorang rakyat itu mengund. Memang benar Dato’ Seri menang di tempat sendiri sebanyak 4 kali, tapi adakah majoriti yg Dato’ Seri perolehi pada PRU yang lepas meningkat naik? Adakah Dato’ Seri yakin akan sentiasa menang pada PRU seterusnya? Jelas kelihatan sikap Dato’ Seri yang sangat bongkak dan takbur serta pentingkan diri sendiri tanpa melihat prestasi BN secara menyeluruh. UMNO dan BN tidak memerlukan pemimpin yang setajat tahu memang kerusi parlimen ditempat sendiri sahaja TANPA melaksanakan amanah dan tanggungjawab untuk Alif Ba TA secara komprehensif. Jika keadaan ini berterusan maka UMNO akan dipimpin oleh pemimpin yg tiada kualiti dan tiada arah yg jelas untuk membela bangsanya dan agamanya. Saya cadangkan Dato Seri’ segera mentertai kembali kem BTN untuk merawat jati diri sayangkan bangsa dalam diri Dato’ Seri.

DS Nazri:           Tak payah nak ajar saya tentang politik. Kalau BN nak kalah pun ialah kerana Tun duk hentam kerajaan tak habis2. Awak pegi nasihat orang tua tu. Apapun bacul jumpa saya paham!

SNU:                     Saya bukan ajar Dato’ Seri, tapi saya terangkan pekara yang saya fikir Dato’ Seri harus tahu dan sedar mengenai UMNO, tapi malangnya Dato’ Seri sedang berada di satu dunia khalayan dan syok sendiri diatas kerusi parlimen yang dimenangi dengan majoriti yang menjunam teruk. Menuduh faktor Tun Mahathir sebagai punca prestasi buruk BN pada PRU12 yang lepas adalah satu sikap bacul yang nyata yang Dato’ Seri harus faham. Bagaimana pula faktor Pak Lah dan menantunya KJ serta rekod buruk peribadi seseorang calon BN yang terlibat dengan skandal rasuah dan salahguna kuasa serta moral? Sepatutnya pemimpin seperti Dato’ Seri harus bermuhasabah diri dan insaf apa yang telah melanda BN dan UMNO disepanjang penguasaan Pak lah selama lebih kurang 5 tahun, bukannya berterusan bersikap angkuh dan bongkak. Jadi Dato’ Seri lah yang perlu dinasihat bukannya Tun Mahathir.

DS Nazri:           Awak ni bukan aje bacul tapi buta! Tak baca interview Tun Daim. Apapun jangan lari, saya tak tahu awak kat mana tapi saya ada di Parlimen. Bagi tahu bila nak mari, saya akan tunggu. Apa pun, saya menteri, awak tu apa? Habuk pun takdak… bacul!!

SNU:                     Tak guna jadi orang yang celik dapat melihat tapi TAK NAMPAK apa yang dilihat, lebih baik jadi si “buta” sungguhpun tak dapat melihat tapi sentiasa nampak melalui hati dan akal. Saya tak pernah lari setiap kali berjuang bersama UMNO. Saya berada di JB. Antara kita tak perlu nak petikai siapa bacul sepatutnya itu bukan standard pemikiran Dato’ Seri yang bertaraf seorang Menteri. Memang saya tahu Dato’ Seri adalah Menteri dan tak perlulah nak bandingkan dengan saya yang Dato’ Seri anggap sebagai habuk kerana bila dalam kubur nanti badan kita akan jadi habuk juga, masa tu adakah pangkat Menteri yang Dato’ Seri bangga-banggakan itu akan dapat kekalkan jasad tidak menjadi HABUK..? Berapa umur Dato’ Seri sekarang dan berapa tahun lagi kah Dato Seri mampu bertahan untuk kekal jadi Menteri?

DS Nazri:           Itu kata awak, hakikatnya saya Menteri dan MP dan peguam, awak tu apa nak di buktikan, ahli UMNO bodoh, tak tahu rakyat dah tolak dan kalau tak berubah terus hancur bangang!

SNU:                     Saya juga punyai kedudukan dan berpendapatan tinggi dalam sebuah syarikat konglomerat, tapi tak perlulah saya nak nyatakan dan banggakan. Di Malaysia ramai juga peguam cabuk dan menipu, makan duit haram, tapi nasib Dato Seri’ agak baik kerana menang bertanding melalui platform UMNO dan BN lalu dapat jadi Menteri yang sedang mengalami kemerosoton undi dan sokongan rakyat. Tunggulah bila sampai waktunya apabila pangkat dan kedudukan ditelan takdir, itulah hakikat sebenar akan tiba nanti.

DS Nazri:           Ha… dah nak jadi penyokong Nik Aziz, doa bala kepada orang lain, awak ni orang Pas menyamar UMNO? Tak pe saya nak masuk undi dalam dewan sekarang. Saya memang nak jumpa awak. Bagi saya tarikh, saya tunggu.

SNU:                     Ini nombor keahlian UMNO saya 0265XXXX, Ahli Pergerakan Pemuda UMNO Bahagian Gelang Patah, Negeri Johor. Jika perlu, sila la buat pengesahan. Saya merujuk kembali text saya sebelum ini, tiada satu ayat pun menunjukan saya mendokan bala kepada Dato’ Seri sepertimana Nik Aziz mendokan bala terhadap PM. Sungguh pelik, Dato’ Seri yang berkelulusan dalam bidang perundangan boleh membuat justifikasi yang lari daripada text saya sebelum ini. Selamat bersidang di dewan yang mulia. Semuga kita dapat berjumpa satu hari nanti.

 

Interaksi tamat, apabila Nazri tidak lagi membalas  selepas text yang terakhir di atas. Kami yakin mengenai kesahihan ini kerana Nazri sebenarnya cuba untuk menyelidiki gerangan SNU ini (berbekalkan dengan no. keahlian UMNO yang diberikan dalam sms tersebut).

Kami sebagai ahli UMNO sebenarnya amat malu kerana ujud pemimpin dengan budi pekerti dan sikap sedemikian, yang dikira sebagai mengkhaianati ‘Perjuangan’, prinsip dan landasan UMNO dan Bangsa Melayu.

Nazri yang membelakangkan “Kesopanan dan kesusilaan” dengan keceluparan yang melampau dan biadap ini sebenarnya memberikan contoh tidak baik bagi rakyat Malaysia, terutama golongan muda dan remaja. Sekaligus ianya membelakangkan Prinsip KeV Rukunegara, sebagai landasan Gagasan ‘1 Malaysia’ PM Najib.

Kami diBigDogDotCom masih lagi amat tegas dengan pendirian dan mendesak agar:

PM NAJIB MEMECAT NAZRI AZIZ DARI KABINET DAN MAJLIS TERTINGGI UMNO MEMECAT BELIAU DARI UMNO!

Iraqi oil deal: A testimony of Hassan’s Petronas

Recently, Petronas announced its success as a part of the group which won the bid to explore and extract oil from Majnoon, Halfaya, Garraf and Badra oil fields, Iraq. By far, it is one of the largest crude oil reserve with 17.65 billion barrels and extraction could be in the amount of 2.7 million barrels per day (bpd).

The success is credited on the stewardship of Tan Sri Hassan Merican. He led a team formidable business development ‘drivers’ of a state-owned oil company which is now able to compete with the oil majors and other similar strategic partnerships in the bid.

Singapore Business Times has the story:

Don’t blood new talent without smooth transition at Petronas It will be a pity if Hassan Merican is made to pay the price for board’s earlier action   By S JAYASANKARAN KL CORRESPONDENT Email this article Print article Feedback     YOU HAVE to doff your hat to Petronas. Some credit must be given to (Petronas) chief executive Hassan Merican, 56, who has built up the oil firm into an international major in his 15 years at the helm.         Petronas is the acronym for Petroliam Nasional, Malaysia’s national oil corporation, which began venturing abroad in the 1990s because of gradually depleting oil reserves at home. On Friday, however, it vaulted into the seriously big league. It was reported then that Petronas, in separate consortia with foreign partners, had won the rights to develop two enormous oilfields in Iraq under a second round of oil contracts since the 2003 US invasion. First, Shell (60 per cent) and Petronas (40 per cent) won the rights to develop the Majnoon oilfields.   The oilfields in southern Iraq are estimated to have 12.6 billion barrels of oil reserve, making it one of the largest untapped oilfields left on the planet.   The Shell-Petronas consortium beat off another consortium – France’s Total and China’s CNPC – in a global tender conducted by Iraq’s Oil Ministry.   In yet another consortium, this time comprising China National Petroleum Company and Total, the Malaysian oil major won a contract to develop the Halfaya oilfields in southern Iraq which has an estimated 4.1 billion barrels of oil reserve.    The new fields have major significance for Iraq.  Indeed, the deals have the potential to make Iraqi oil output rival that of top producers Saudi Arabia and Russia and, according to analysts, could shift the power balance in the Middle East.  The new fields being offered hold as much oil as all that held by Libya.   That Petronas got into both deals that were on offer speaks volumes about its international experience.  And some credit must be given to its chief executive, Hassan Merican, 56, who has built up the oil firm into an international major in his 15 years at the helm.  We bring this up only because there is some uncertainty about Mr Hassan’s future.   He is also the acting non-executive chairman of Petronas which, for corporate governance reasons, isn’t the best arrangement for any firm, let alone Malaysia’s single-largest firm in terms of revenue and profits.  Mr Hassan’s contracts for both posts expire in February and there is some uncertainty about whether they would be renewed.  That would be inexplicable in any other country given his track record but it can, occasionally, be the nature of the beast in Malaysia.  The problem goes back a couple of months when a senior aide of Prime Minister Najib Razak, one Omar Mustapha, was denied a board seat on the oil firm despite explicit instructions to the contrary by Mr Najib.  Under the Petroleum Development Act, the oil firm is answerable only to the Prime Minister and no one else, which meant that the board may have been insubordinate in its actions,  In any case, a second request by Mr Najib led to the board ‘deferring’ the decision. Mr Najib then put his foot down and Mr Omar has since joined the board.  But the question in the minds of oil industry executives in Malaysia and elsewhere is this: will Mr Hassan pay the price for the board’s actions?   We will only know in February but it would be a great pity if he did.  Petronas is too important to the country to blood new management talent without a sufficiently smooth transition.  That was what happened previously when its former chief executive Azizan Zainal became chairman to allow Mr Hassan to take over his current post over a decade ago.   Perhaps, a similar transition might be considered this February. **********

It is a very useful reminder, especially from the Singaporeans. Undoubtably, Hassan did very well. Petronas being a state oil corporation is now regarded as one of the new ‘Seven Sisters’. Despite the suspiscion of ‘not up to mark’ in corporate governance, a lot could be desired from the company.

PM Najib’s insistence of bringing in Ethos Consulting Supremo Omar Ong in as a independent non-executive director last September did not go well with some of the directors, who personally present themselves to the Prime Minister on the opposition of the appointment.

 The productivity of Hassan is still very encouraging. The rumour of the workoholic CEO being prematurely replaced, with names speculated such as FELDA CEO Dato’ Mohd. Bakke Salleh, Tabung Haji CEO Dato’ Ismee Ismail or Omar Ong taking over the helm of the RM 250 billion turnover state oil corporation, looms in the lips of the market punters.

Petronas is inarguably the best example of a Malay corporate success. PM Najib should portray all these success stories that Petronas and her executives are famed for as a corporate icon for ‘1 Malaysia’. The 254 billion dished out in the form of taxes, royalties, dividends, goodwill and grants to the Federal Government and some of the state governments within the last six years are testimonies that ‘People first, performance improves’. That is despite that Petronas has been allowed to be managed purely as a business entity by the BOD and management team, without intervention of the Federal Government.

Since Hassan’s stewardship as the Group CFO and eventually CEO since the 1990s, the growth of Petronas has been phenomenal. His gambit to venture into new markets, strategic partnerships and capital expenditures really paid off. Petronas also diversified into other non-oil related businesses and did well too. From the writing, it is obvious that the Singaporeans are envious of the Pertonas successes.

Hassan is known to be able to directly appoach Heads of Government of several oil producing and high-oil-reserves states, without much protocol. His mild mannered and straight-talk is very much acceptable. In fact, in diplomatic terms, he is even better than all Foreign Ministers that have served the country during his tenure as Petronas President/CEO.

Recently, Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak expressed his pleasure of the recent Petronas success, considering that the strategic partnership really was really productive against other bids.

Najib Proud Of Petronas’ Success In Securing Iraq Contracts

 

PEKAN, Dec 12 (Bernama) — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has expressed satisfaction over Petronas’ success in securing two contracts in Iraq, including to develop the giant Majnoon oilfield.

He said the achievement showed that Petronas had gained international trust in oil exploration.

“I had yet to be informed officially by Petronas, I only learned about it from newspaper reports.

“It is an encouraging development as the areas are proven to have huge oil deposit. Generally, when we get exploration areas we do not know whether we will succeed or not until we carry out drilling works.

“We do not know whether we will find oil or gas. But now, it seemed there are no risks at all if the report is anything to go by,” he told reporters after opening the Pekan Resource Centre here Saturday.

Najib, who is also Finance Minister, said the achievement would not only generate revenue for the company but also for the government.

“Petronas is always looking for new opportunities and only when they succeed the announcement is made. So efforts to find new oilfields is a continuing process,” he said.

It was reported yesterday that Shell and Petronas won the rights to develop the Majnoon oilfields as Iraq staged its second auction of oil contracts since the 2003 United Stares invasion.

Shell has a 60 per cent stake in the consortium while Petronas holds the remaining 40 per cent. The Majnoon oilfields in southern Iraq are estimated to have 12.6 billion barrels of reserves, making it one of the largest untapped oilfields left on earth.

Petronas in another consortium comprising China National Petroleum Company of China and French oil major Total won a contract at the second auction to develop the Halfaya oilfields in southern Iraq with an estimated 4.1 billion barrels of reserves.

***********************

MITI Minister Dato’ Mustapha Mohamad recently wanted service providers to emulate and deliver Petronas’s quality of service. The Federal Government investment arm Khazanah Holdings Bhd., which also managed by chartered accountants should emulate Petronas’s success story and productivity, especially in the context of protecting the nation’s prized treasure and ‘goose that lay the golden egg’.

It has been said that many of her executives still remain with the company because of Hassan. The strict one-time partner of a ‘big six’ has inspired the top management to strive harder and made what Petronas it is today.  It is ashamed that when the ‘horse is changed midstream’, the momentum of these great successes will erode. Malaysians will be where ‘the buck stops’.

As they say, “If its not broken, don’t fix it”.

Bloggers Vs KJ, round 2

Anak-Bapak: Rekod sokongan terbanyak hingga terburuk keatas BN, hanya dalam tempohmasa hanya satu terma pilihanraya umum sahaja

Generally, bloggers be it pro-UMNO or pro-PR are incurably ‘allergic’ to Khairy Jamaluddin. The highly controversial Rembau MP and Pemuda UMNO Vice Head managed to ‘wiggle’ his way as an UMNO Vice-President-stature Pemuda UMNO Head on 25 March 2009, despite the Disciplinary Board’s findings that he was involved in ‘money politics’ created much controversy. At that time, father-in-law PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was still the Sixth UMNO President.

Controversy was something very synonymous with the name ‘KJ’. For the past four years, KJ has been the talk of town with regards to highly explosive issues. One of the commenters posted this:

“The acid test is simple:

Ask people on the street about a person called ‘Khairy Jamaluddin’. And what answer would you get?

1. Corruption
2. Maya Karin
3. ECM Libra scandal
4. MyTeam (trampling the national team wearing the Jalur Gemilang in 2006)
5. Airline rationalisation plan which saw MAS surrendering most of the domestic routes to AirAsia and MAS Rural Air Service but later MAS is forced to take RAS back and has to repackaged it as ‘MAS Wings’, at extra cost
6. Labu LCCT
7. Racism – The call that Chinese is taking the opportunity when TDM started atttacks against Sleepyhead Pak Lah
8. ‘Beruk concang pokok’ – hence the nickname Beruk Hitam
9. The storming of KLCC Convention Ctr when US Sec of State Condoleeza Rice was having a meeting
10. Pemuda Umno unruly behaviour during the Ijok by-elections

and much more…..”

*************

The common people on the street would have all that to say when the ‘name KJ’ is mentioned.

Needless to mention, some inwards-looking quarters within Pemuda UMNO strongly believed that their leader should be invited into the Federal Government under Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak’s adminsitration, at least as a Cabinet Minister. Their arguments are:

1. The Pemuda UMNO Head is a Vice President stature. Other wings such as Wanita UMNO’s and Puteri UMNO’s Heads are Cabinet Minister and Deputy Minister respectively

2. Even the Pemuda UMNO Vice Head Dato’ Razali Ibrahim is a Deputy Minister in PM Najib’s administration. Historically, Pemuda UMNO Vice Head has been made a Cabinet Minister before. In 1986 after winning Pekan parliamentary seat, then Pemuda UMNO Vice Head Dato’ Mohd. Najib Tun Razak was made Minister of Youth and Sports by then Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.

3. Wanita MCA, Wanita Gerakan and Pemuda MCA Heads are all Deputy Ministers in PM Najib’s adminsitration

The ‘isolation and exclusion’ of Khairy from being appointed into PM Najib’s administration must have really hurt KJ’s die-hard supporters’ within  Pemuda UMNO ego. Being excluded at the very least also could have affected the moral and political resolve of Pemuda UMNO, who were deemed to be UMNO’s ‘fighting arm’. Then again, Pemuda UMNO should be reminded that Khairy’s ascension into the Vice-President -stature of UMNO is not by grassroots’ choice (as Khairy did not get the most nominations from UMNO Divisions all over the country) but the decision of the 304 Pemuda delegates. Pemuda UMNO now is bearing the ’sins’ of these 304 delegates, who failed to realise the aspirations and sesitivities of the Pemuda UMNO grassroot a large.

Pemuda UMNO: Pilih politikwang atau masa depan anak bangsa?

Regardless, the ‘pressure’ is mounting for the Leadership to bring in Khairy at least as a Deputy Minister. The attempt to ‘pressure’ the Leadership is very consistent. The most glaring was during the recently concluded UMNO AGM where Pemuda UMNO Information Chief Dato’ Reezal Merican (0ne time PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah’s Political Secretary in Ministry of Finance) raised it formally during the Pemuda UMNO AGM. However there is a strong debate within UMNO on Khairy being pushed forward.

Coupled with the ‘diminishing resentment’ against Khairy at UMNO’s meeting nowadays (as compared to when he first ascended to the Pemuda UMNO Head position and UMNO main body delegates ‘boo’ed when his name was announced), Pemuda UMNO is gaining new ‘wind’ as some of them perceived that their Boss has been ‘accepted’ by UMNO at large.

When the rumour about Khairy was raised in Utusan Malaysia recently, we here at BigDogDotCom decided to take the debate on why Khairy should not be appointed into PM Najib’s administration in any capacity. It attracted so much attention and the debate was stiff. The emotions of so many commenters is reflective of their vehement rejection on Khairy’s appointment, even though it was just a rumour. The debate spurred a mini blog-war, since mainstream media systematically ‘excluded and isolated’ Khairy and even prefer to focus on Pemuda UMNO and Pemuda BN Vice Head Dato’ Razali Ibrahim for comments and statements. So much so, even new media thought to be linked to former NST strongman Kalimullah “Riong Kali” Hassan via Brenden Perreira is compelled to take the argument further.

Malaysian Insider’s story:

 

Khairy is under attack again by bloggers. — File pic

By Adib Zalkapli

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 11 — Online attacks against Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin, which tapered off with the departure of Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, have been reignited by speculation that the Rembau MP will be made a deputy minister.

Bloggers campaigning against Khairy alleged that the Umno Youth leaders retreat held in Janda Baik last week had failed to attract a significant number of participants, to prove their point that the son-in-law of the fifth prime minister should not be promoted to the front bench.

“We are confident that PM Najib who is focusing on stabilising the economy and development will not make the strategic mistake or take a big risk by bringing Khairy Jamaluddin into his administration,” said a posting in a pro-Mahathir blog, BigDogDotCom.

The blog also alleged that Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Zahid Hamidi had openly supported Khairy to be made a minister at the Umno Youth retreat.

It also gave reasons why Khairy should not be made deputy minister, among which is appeasing Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

“Many are of the opinion that if the appointment comes true, Tun Dr Mahathir will start attacking PM Najib, like how PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah was attacked for three years,” said the blog.

Debate on the matter has also started in a pro-Umno Facebook group, Kelab Penyokong Umno, with some participants even threatening to leave the Malay party if Khairy is brought into the Najib administration.

Speculation on Khairy’s appointment started with the resignation of Deputy Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib last week.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak also did not rule out the possibility of a reshuffling of deputy ministers.

Khairy has refused to comment on the speculation.

During the Abdullah administration, Khairy has been accused of influencing government decisions, with most of the attacks originating from cyberspace.

Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad had also accused Khairy of attending government meetings when he was Umno Youth deputy chief.

But the attacks against the Rembau MP tapered off after he won the Umno Youth chief post and Abdullah’s retirement.

********************* 

The attention  and debate created only proves the point that Khairy and his people are in dire desparation to deploy counter-attack against this strong opposition being brought into the cybersphere on the strong rumours based on the consistent effort to make the most controversial Pemuda UMNO Head in history a Deputy Minister. It is also a PR attmpt to gauge feeling of Malaysians, particularly  in cybersphere.

Khairy Jamaluddin: The face of arrogance

It was the blogs which mounted scathing attacks against the weakness and abuses PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah’s administration, all way back since 2005. Oneof the ealier ones is the aquisition of a brand new Airbus ACJ319  exective jet at the cost of almost  RM 200 million. Even pro-UMNO portals such as MyKMU.net intensified attacks against one time ‘asprired’ Leader whom the country had so much hope of his ‘Mr Clean and son-of-Ulama’ image, whom also so many believed was ‘corrupted’ by the greed of his family members namely son Dato’ Kamaluddin Abdullah and son-in-law Khairy Jamaluddin. Even the way how Federal Government ‘plan and decide’ function was taken over and to a point ‘controlled’  by the much talked about Khairy’s creation of ‘Level Four Boys’.

Bloggers managed to create the strong awareness on the weakness and abuses of PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah’s adminsitration especially amongst the professionals, educated and urbanites that adversely affected that the support for BN and changed the Malaysian political landscape. Even traditional BN supporters changed their voting pattern habit, within just one electoral term. BN saw the record-breaking erosion feat from the thunderous and thumping ‘Feel Good Factor’ landslide win of 11th General Elections in March 2004 to the worst ever in 12th General Elections 8 March 2008 where BN  unprecendentedly lost 5 + 1 states and the traditional and psychological 2/3 majority.

If bloggers could indirectly contribute so much for PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah’s premature departure (Remember: “I am not a one term Prime Minister”?), then we could do this again, anytime. Not too long ago, bloggers managed to attract the attention of Khairy’s former media co-ordinator Rashid Yusuf from being appointed as DPM Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd. Yassin’s Press Officer.

To under estimate the resilience and resolve of bloggers via the ‘new media’ was a costly mistake in the PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah’s camp. Now that PM Najib has denied speculations of a Cabinet reshuffle soon and Khairy himself not admitting on the rumour that he would be made a Deputy Minister anytime soon, does not mean bloggers woud ease of.

As Sherlock Holmes would have said it, “The game’s afoot”.

Uncouth Minister needs to go

Nazri Aziz: Mengkhianati Bangsa Melayu dengan menyifatkan 'Perjuangan' sebagai "Bloody Racist"

Since the series of insulting outburst of calling Fourth Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad “Bloody Racist” for defending the BTN module for partiotism and nationalism as a tool for nation-building, Minister in Prime Minister’s Department Dato’ Seri Mohamed Nazri Aziz insulted more Malaysians with his another virile outburst.

This time, he enraged the taxi-drivers.

Bernama.com has the story:

December 11, 2009 22:11 PM

Taxi Drivers Demand That Nazri Withdraw Statement About Taxis And Toilets

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 11 (Bernama) — Taxi drivers in the Klang Valley have demanded that Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz withdraw his statement saying “the bad attitude of our taxi drivers is worse than our filthy public toilets.”

Azmi Md Yatin, chairman of the Executive Taxi Owners Association of Malaysia, said although Nazri said only a small number had negative attitudes like charging high fares and refusing to take passengers to far destinations his equating taxi drivers to toilets was an insult.

In a news report on Dec 9, Nazri said a survey of tourists revealed that the worst complaint was about taxis while toilets fell to second place leading to Nazri to declare that taxi service was worse than filthy public toilets.

“The statement by Nazri is extreme and we (taxi drivers) from the Klang Valley unequivocally agree that Nazri apologise openly to clear the image of all taxi drivers in the country,” Azmi said.

He said this to reporters after handing over a memorandum of protest regarding Nazri’s statement to the Federal Territory Umno liaison committee secretary, Kamarudin Hassan, at the Jalan Peel Umno branch here today.

Kamarudin was representing Cheras Umno division chief, Senator Datuk Wira Syed Ali Al-Habshee.

About 100 taxi drivers from the Klang Valley were present at the handing over event.

Meanwhile, Kamarudin said the memorandum will be handed over to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his deputy Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin next week.

Azmi said the taxi drivers in the Klang Valley wanted Nazri to relinquish his portfolio overseeing the Commercial Vehicle Licensing Board (CVLB) and called on the prime minister to replace him with someone else.

In the event Nazri refuses to meet the demand, which was also listed in the memorandum of protest, Azmi said he will ask all taxi drivers from various taxi associations in the Klang Valley to meet the prime minister to resolve the matter.

Definitely this Cabinet Minister is just simply shooting-words as he likes from his mouth, without having any consideration what sort ever of the consequences of his statements. This behaviour is totally unbecoming of a Cabinet Minister, by any standards.

Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak should really sack this man. Otherwise he will antagonise more communities, which is really bad for the administration and the perception of the rakyat towards the Government. This sort of behaviour is really unbecoming for PM Najib’s effort to unite Malaysians and counter-productive on the “1 Malaysia”.

The question is, what would it take PM Najib to sack this ‘Samseng Cabinet’?

At the rate of his insult (which is now stand on twice weekly), soon enough there would be streams of Malaysians demonstrating for his sacking. It would be emotional instead of politically motivated. Worse of all, they demonstrate in front of Istana Negara, appealing to HM Seri Paduka Yang DiPertuan Agong to dismiss this member of HM’s Cabinet, since Nazri took oath and swore of secrecy in front of the King.

* Updated 1000am

Nazri’s virile attack against Fourth Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad as “bloody racist” is really wrong and inacurate. Despite having a very sticky relationship, even Fifth Prime Minister PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi is defending his predecessor.

Utusan Malaysia has the story:

Tun Abdullah nafi BTN rasis

Oleh NORILA DAUD
pengarang@utusan.com.my

 

KUALA LUMPUR 11 Dis. – Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi menafikan program Biro Tata Negara (BTN) yang dianjurkan oleh Jabatan Perdana Menteri untuk kakitangan awam dan pelajar institusi pengajian tinggi (IPT) bersifat perkauman. Menurut bekas Perdana Menteri itu, beliau telah terlibat dalam BTN sejak zaman Tun Abdul Razak dengan banyak perkara berkaitan Dasar Ekonomi Baru (DEB) dan peranan pelajar ditekankan.

 Pada zaman Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad pula katanya, program berkaitan Wawasan 2020 pula ditekankan dengan penerangan diberikan kepada Melayu dan kaum bukan Melayu.

 ”Jika ada individu yang bersifat perkauman, itu saya tak tahu,” katanya kepada pemberita selepas menyempurnakan Majlis Pelancaran Program Kerja Institut Kefahaman Islam Malaysia (IKIM) 2010 dan Anugerah Perkhidmatan Cemerlang IKIM 2008 di sini hari ini.

 Isu BTN timbul apabila kerajaan Selangor yang diterajui PKR, DAP dan Pas melarang kakitangan kerajaan negeri dan pelajar IPT milik kerajaan negeri daripada menghadiri kursus anjuran BTN.

Mereka mendakwa kursus yang diberikan bersifat perkauman dan cuba mempengaruhi peserta menyokong Barisan Nasional (BN).

 Abdullah menambah, dalam program BTN, semua tajuk ceramah dan penceramah boleh diperoleh dalam buku kecil yang disediakan.

 Penceramah pula katanya, terdiri daripada pensyarah IPT dan pega wai-pegawai kerajaan daripada kementerian tertentu.

 Pada satu ketika katanya, bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim juga bertanggungjawab menjaga BTN.

 Tambahnya, perkara itu tidak perlu diriuhkan sebaliknya memastikan institusi tersebut dapat diteruskan dengan niat baik dan murni di samping meningkatkan kesedaran berhubung programnya.

 Dalam pada itu Abdullah menyambut baik rombakan kurikulum BTN yang dicadangkan Kabinet minggu lepas supaya ia selaras dengan konsep 1Malaysia.

 

 

No Deputy Minister’s job for KJ

Anak-Bapak: Rekod sokongan terbanyak hingga terburuk keatas BN, hanya dalam tempohmasa hanya satu terma pilihanraya umum sahaja

Rembau MP YB Khairy Jamaluddin dimissed the rumour that he will be made a Deputy Minister.

The Star has the story:

Khairy rubbishes deputy minister’s offer reports

BY IZATUN SHARI

KUALA LUMPUR: Umno Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin, who has been speculated to receive an offer for a deputy minister’s post in a possible minor Cabinet reshuffle, has dismissed all such reports.

The Rembau MP said such reports were merely rumours but declined to comment further.

Khairy, the son-in-law of former Prime Minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, has come under fire from various bloggers over the possibility of being given the post after Datuk Seri Sulaiman Abdul Rahman decided to take down from his post as deputy Tourism Minister.

**************

After the recent report in Utusan Malaysia, we here in BigDogDotCom raised the question and did an analysis why Prime Minister VI Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak would probably not make Khairy a Deputy Minister in his administration.

That invited a lot of debate, which the majority was against the appointment. The opposition against Khairy being made a Deputy Minister in PM Najib’s administration has its strong merits.

Pemuda UMNO: Pilih politikwang atau masa depan anak bangsa?

The fact is that, Khairy has been a very unpopular and controversial UMNO leader despite able to win the UMNO Youth Head position last March. He is so unpopular and highly controversial that during the Bukit Gantang and Bukit Selambau by-elections in April, he was asked not to campaign. Mainstream media, especially TVs (TV 3, NTV 7, TV 9, Astro Awani and Bernama TV) prefer to highlight his deputy, Vice UMNO Youth Head Dato’ Razali Ibrahim’s opinion and statements with regards to UMNO and BN Youth.

Never before in the history of UMNO and BN Youth that the Head was ‘isolated’ from mainstream media.

We at BigDogDotCom hope that PM Najib takes all these arguments into his conisderation. His administration could do without the negative attention and perception.

Charity begins at home

The latest outcry by Oppositions and anti-Malays echoing to Minister in PM’s Department Nazri Aziz of Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad’s defence of BTN’s patriotism and nationalism nationbuilding programs as being “Bloody Racist” is really manipulating the circumtance. The Fourth Prime Minister and Third BN Chairman has always been very consistent about political parties looking inwards first as a strategic effort to eventually develop the rest of the nation.

Place Party Interest Above Self, Dr Mahathir Tells MCA Leaders

 

LANGKAWI, Dec 4 (Bernama) — Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad advised the squabbling MCA leaders to place party interest above their own in resolving the leadership crisis.”(They) have to love the party, love the people, love the country, not love only themselves,” he said when approached by reporters after attending an appreciation lunch in his honour by Composites Technology Research Malaysia Sdn Bhd at the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace (Lima 2009) exhibition, here, on Friday.The five-day Lima 2009 ends tomorrow.Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak had said recently that the MCA domestic problem should be resolved as soon as possible to enable the Barisan Nasional (BN) component party launch its rehabilitation process.– BERNAMA************

   

 

This call by the Statesman is about the Chinesese community to look into their own issues via MCA, the party which represented their interests for the last 60 years. MCA has been the voice of the Chinese community in the Government and as a ‘power-sharing’ pasrtner in BN, the Chinese have been represented in Government’s decision making since 1957. One of the biggest usccess for MCA was to successfully negotiate the once upon a time ’stateless’ Chinese (even by British colonial classification pre-Merdeka) be made Malayan citizens, as part of the unwritten ’social contract’ which was the fundamental basis of the Federal Constitution today.

Hence, it is important that the Chinese community look into their own affairs and MCA has had the track record to prove for it. Tun Dr. Mahathir is asking the Chinese community to ‘fix’ their ethnic party so that the progress they desire is reflected in the MCA’s representation in the Federal Government. MCA must be strong and solid for that.

Put party first, MCA heads told

LANGKAWI: Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has advised MCA leaders to put the party and race above their individual interest.

“‘Sayangi parti, sayang kaum sendiri dan sayang negara, jangan sayang diri sendiri’ (Love your party, your race and your country but don’t love yourself,” he said when asked by the media on what advice he would give as a veteran politician to MCA leaders in view of the on-going party crisis.

“Love your party, your race and your country but don’t love yourself” TUN DR MAHATHIR MOHAMAD

The question was raised during his visit to the Composite Technology Research Malaysia (CTRM) booth at the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace (Lima) Exhibition here yesterday.

The crisis mounted in MCA after the 2,304 delegates attending an extraordinary general meeting last October voted on a motion of no confidence on Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat.

**************************

In reality, the social and racial divide in Malaysia is historically inhereted and it is a very gargantuan task to undo. This is primarily because of the vast difference economic and social standing different ethnic groups and communities and geographical characteristics are the main factors.

Hence, it takes a lot to correct all these socio-economic imbalance. New Economic Policy (NEP) was designed to restructure and correct all the socio-economic desparities, with specific emphasis on eradication of poverty and economic development programs for the under developed rural Malaysians.

Despite the NEP was being implemented, Malaysia never neglected the economic and open market forces and certain ethnic groups which already has a better socio-economic standing and economic infrastructural advantage progressed further and faster than some. Hence, the socio-economic divide between ethnic groups is actually widening.

Unless the various ethnic groups are of equal socio-economic stature, standing and power, then the ‘playing field is not leveled’. Without a ‘level playing field’, a completely laissez faire economy would not holistically work as the majority who are lacking in socio-economic standing would harbour ‘emotions’ and influence political standing. History has demonstrated how the masses revolt and even had clashes because of these desparities.

Therefore, the politics based on championing ethnic needs and demands is stilll very much relevant, especially the Malaysian context.

It is all about ‘Charity begins at home’. When one is socio-economically ready within their own ‘domain’, then only one could care for one’s surrounding. This is basic principle of Mazlow’s ‘hierrachy of needs’. It is not sinful to take care of your own domain first, before you are able to look into other things, even your own neighbourhood.

UMNO President V, BN Chairman III and Prime Minister IV Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad reminded that even the Chinese should look into the affairs first. He was being very consistent about it. Hence, if he thinks about the Malays first, then he was just practicing the maxim  “Charity begins at home”.

There is no racism about that. Especially when the championing of Malay rights and socio-economic standing was never about depriving the Non Malays. The progress and luxury enjoyed by Non Malays have undoubtably proven that.

Khairy diberikan jawatan dalam pentadbiran PM Najib?

Anak-Bapak: Rekod sokongan terbanyak hingga terburuk keatas BN, hanya dalam temphmasa satu terma pilihanraya umum sahaja

Khabar angin mengenai Ketua Pemuda UMNO yang kontroversi YB Khairy Jamaluddin akan diundang kedalam pentadbiran Perdana Menteri VI Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak sebagai seorang Timbalan Menteri amat marak, terutama dikalangan pemimpin Pemuda UMNO peringkat menengah. Bermula dari sebuah portal, kini ianya mendapat perhatian media arus perdana.

Laporan Utusan Malaysia:

Khairy Jamaluddin dilantik timbalan menteri?

KUALA LUMPUR 8 Dis. – Sebuah portal berita melaporkan Ketua Pergerakan Pemuda UMNO, Khairy Jamaluddin berkemungkinan dilantik timbalan menteri dalam perubahan kecil peringkat kementerian yang akan dilakukan tidak lama lagi.

Menurut portal Malaysia-instinct.com, pelantikan itu kemungkinan menjadi kenyataan jika perletakan jawatan Timbalan Menteri Pelancongan, Datuk Seri Sulaiman Abdul Rahman Taib diterima.

”Khairy dijangka diberikan jawatan Timbalan Menteri Pengajian Tinggi dan tidak semestinya mengisi vakum di Kementerian Pelancongan jika Sulaiman Abdul Rahman berundur,” menurut portal berkenaan di sini hari ini.

Menurut portal itu, pelantikan itu akan dibuat sebagai menghormati jawatan Ketua Pemuda UMNO.

Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak baru-baru ini memberitahu bahawa tiada rombakan Kabinet akan dilakukan dalam jangka masa terdekat melainkan beberapa perubahan melibatkan timbalan menteri.

Beliau juga mengesahkan bahawa Sulaiman telah menyampaikan hasrat untuk berundur sebagai Timbalan Menteri Pelancongan.

Khairy sebelum ini tidak diberikan sebarang jawatan dalam mana-mana kementerian sebagai memberikan ruang untuk beliau menumpukan perhatian menarik kembali sokongan golongan muda kepada UMNO.

*********

Semenjak Utusan Malaysia menyiarkan laporan, kami di BigDogDotCom menerima banyak pertanyaan mengenai khabar angin yang begitu ramai Pemuda UMNO ‘termakan’ dan mula percaya, lantas menjadi kegusaran lebih ramai ahli UMNO sekiranya tidak majoriti, seluruh negara.

Dalam sessi kursus Pemuda UMNO baru baru ini di Janda Baik, Pahang, Naib Presiden UMNO Dato’ Seri Dr. Zahid Hamidi dikhabarkan telah membuat kenyataan terbuka “Sekiranya saya menjadi Perdana Menteri pada 1200 tengahari, saya akan menlantik Khairy sebagai Menteri pada 1201!”. Ini memberi ‘nafas baru’ kepada mereka yang pro-Khairy dalam Pemuda UMNO yangamat berharap Ketua mereka diangkat kerana sebelum ini merasakan ‘terpinggir’ apabila PM Najib telah mengabaikan perlantikan seorang Ketua Pemuda UMNO (yang sama taraf dengan Naib Presiden UMNO) dalam pentadbiran Kerajaan pada Kabinet sulung beliau pada 8 April 2009. Kemudian, saranan Ketua Penerangan Pemuda UMNO Dato’ Reezal Merican semasa Perhimpunan Agung UMNO baru baru ini juga mendapat respon sepi dari Kepimpinan.

Namun begitu, kami di BigDogDotCom berkeyakinan penuh bahawa PM Najib tidak akan melantik Khairy ke dalam pentadbiran, walaupun sebagai Timbalan Menteri kerana:

1. Tiada kekosongan jawatan Timbalan Menteri. Sekiranya ada pun (modal kenyataan PM Najib baru baru ini bahawa tidak akan berlaku rombakan Kabinet dalam masa terdekat tetapi akan berlaku “Sedikit perubahan Timbalan Menteri” dijadikan sandaran khabar angin ini), maka ianya akan melibatkan Timbalan Menteri Pelancongan yang disandang oleh Dato’ Seri Abdul Rahman Sulaiman Taib dari PBB dan Timbalan Menteri JPM yang disandang oleh Senator Dato’ T. Murugaiah (PPP). Sekirnya kedua dua ini berundur, maka parti PBB dan PPP akan dengan tegas mahukan jawatan itu diisi oleh wakil mereka dan tidak diberikan kepada UMNO.

2. Sekiranya PM Najib berhasrat melantik juga Khairy sebagai Timbalan Menteri, maka jawatan baru perlu diujudkan. Sekiranya ini berlaku, PM Najib sekurang kurangnya perlu mengujudkan tiga jawatan Timbalan Menteri kerana selain dari Khairy, PM Najib akan didesak parti komponen BN Sabah dan Sarawak untuk menambah peruntukan jawatan untuk mereka. Desakan ini lebih nyata kerana 2010 dijangkakan akan berlaku Pilihanraya Negeri Sarawak dan BN perlu ‘menenangi hati’ pengundi.

3. Memang tidak dinafikan lagi Khairy merupakan seorang yang berpendidikan tinggi (Falsafah, Politik dan Ekonomi lulusan Oxford) dan berfikiran strategik. Beliau juga sebagai Ketua Pemuda UMNO (yang bertaraf Naib Presiden UMNO) juga merangkap Ketua Pemuda BN. Ini menjadi kelebihan untuk Khairy dilantik PM Najib kedalam pentadbiran. Ianya dikuatkan lagi dengan hujah bahawa Ketua Wanita UMNO (merangkap Ketua Wanita BN) Dato’ Seri Sharizat A Jalil dan Ketua Puteri UMNO Dato’ Rosnah Abd Rashid Shirlin diberikan jawatan Menteri dan Timbalan Menteri. Dalam pertimbangan politik hieraki yang sama, Ketua Wanita MCA Dato’ Paduka Chew Mei Fun  dan Ketua Wanita Gerakan Dato’ Tan Lian Hoe juga diberikan jawatan Timbalan Menteri. Untuk rekod, Ketua Wanita UMNO Sharizat dan Ketua Wanita MCA Chew yang kalah dalam PRU 12 8 Mac 2008 dilantik sebagai Senator sebelum menyertai pentadbiran PM Najib.

Namun keburukan Khairy dilantik kedalam pentadbiran PM Najib jauh lebih menyebabkan masalah berpanjangan berbanding dengan kebaikan perlantikan itu.

Rata rata:

3.1. UMNO akan hilang keyakinan dan sokongan ahli sendiri dan rakyat, terutama golongan muda kerana keyakinan jitu disandarkan semasa PM Najib mengambil alih Presiden UMNO dan Perdana Menteri Malaysia dari PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. Aspirasi akar umbi dan rakyat, terutama orang Melayu untuk melihat  UMNO di’bersih’kan dan pemimpin yang dianggap korupt wajar dipinggirkan

3.2. PM Najib akan kehilangan keyakinan pelabur dan masyarakat peniaga kerana Khairy Jamaluddin sebagai menantu PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah dilihat sebagai antara faktor utama ketirisan mutu pentadbiran, dasar dasar dan kelemahan dan kegagalan perlaksanaan Perdana Menteri Malaysia V itu dalam tempoh yang amat singkat, walaupun rakyat memberikan mandat yang begitu besar kepada ‘nafas baru’ dalam PRU 11 Mac 2004 kepada Kepimpinan yang disifatkan sebagai ‘bersih dan keturunan ulama’.

4. Perdana Menteri IV Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad dijangkakann akan memberikan reaksi negatif keatas perlantikan Khairy sebagai Timbalan Menteri.  Ramai berpendapat sekiranya perlantikan ini berlaku, maka Tun Dr. Mahathir akan mula ‘menyerang’  PM Najib, sebagaimana PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah di’perangi’ selama 3 tahun (2006-2009).

Episod dimana Khairy tidak dibenarkan berkempen semasa Pilihanraya Kecil Bukit Gantang dan Bukit Selambau April lepas kerana dikhuatiri akan menjadi ‘tarikan negatif kempen’ merupakan indikasi jelas bagaimana rakyat menolak pemilihan dan kepimpinan Khairy. Ini juga modal yang Tun Dr. Mahathir gunakan sebagai merujuk persepsi rakyat terhadap UMNO

5. PM Najib juga perlu mengunakan banyak sumber terutama media dan kerja hubungan awam (PR)  untuk membetulkan persepsi yang akan menjadi keruh dengan perlantikan Khairy kejawatan Timbalan Menteri.

Sehingga masa ini, semenjak proses kempen dan kemudian memenangi Ketua Pemuda UMNO 26 Mac lepas, media arus perdana meminggirkan Khairy dari merakamkan kenyataanya dalam pelbagai isu termasuk hal hewal Pemuda UMNO dan BN, terutama media elektronik. Sebaliknya jika ada apa apa kenyataan Pemuda UMNO dan BN, tumpuan diberikan kepada Dato’ Razali Ibrahim walaupun beliau hanya Naib Ketua Pemuda UMNO dan Naib Ketua Pemuda BN. Ini merupakan ‘alamat jelas’ bahawa berita mengenai Khairy tidak menjadi bahan yang media arus perdana tagih dan jauh sekali menjadi ‘bahan santapan’ pengguna media. Peminggiran media arus perdana ini jelas menunjukan beliau tidak disenangi majoriti rakyat Malaysia.

6. Kontroversi yang akan timbul dengan perlantikan Khairy kedalam pentabiran sebagai Timbalan Menteri adalah sesuatu yang tidak membantu proses mengembalikan keyakinan dan sokongan rakyat kepada PM Najib dan BN, terutama mengambil kesempatan kelemahan dan kegagalan pentadbiran Pakatan Rakyat dan perbicaraan kes sodomi Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim telah pun bermula dan mereka memerlukan pengalihan-perhatian

Perlantikan ini akan menjadi modal dan ‘nafas baru’ Pembangkang, yang kini menghadapi pelbagai masalah dalaman dan antara parti PR dan ketirisan modal politik yang meyakinkan

Kami berkeyakinan, PM Najib yang memberikan fokus utama keatas pembangunan dan ekonomi yang perlu distabilkan tidak akan membuat kesilapan strategik dan mengambil risiko besar dengan melantik Khairy Jamaluddin kedalam pentadbiran beliau sebagai Timbalan Menteri serta belajar dan ambil iktibar dari kesilapan besar PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah.

 

P/S: Sekiranya ramai dikalangan pemimpin dan ahli Pemuda UMNO merasakan teruja dan ‘termakan’ dengan ’saranan politik’ Dato’ Seri Zahid di Pusat Latihan UMNO Janda Baik tempohari, maknanya kalian masih lagi ‘mentah politik’. Ini sebenarnya membimbangkan kerana secara simplistiknya membuktikan bahawa pemimpin pelapis UMNO ini merupakan mereka yang kurang-matang politik dan tidak bijaksana dalam membuat tafsiran dan kefahaman kepenggunaan-politik (political consumerism).

Kepimpinan UMNO wajar mengambil tindakan atas aspirasi orang Melayu mengenai Nazri

Semenjak media perdana mengutarakan Menteri diJabatan Perdana Menteri Nazri Aziz menyifatkan Presiden UMNO V Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad sebagai “Bloody Racist” kerana mempertahankan modul BTN apabila polemik itu ditimbulkan musuh Melayu seperti PKR dan DAP dan bloggers mendesak Nazri dipecat dari Kabinet dan MT UMNO melucutkan keahlian UMNO beliau kerana ‘Mengkhianati Bangsa Melayu’, Kepimpinan mula mengambil perhatian keatas gelombang emosi Melayu terbaru ini.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd. Yassin dikatakan amat tidak selesa dengan keceluparan melampau Nazri ini dan mengeluarkan kenyataan semasa ditanya media, walaupun dalam missi perdagangan ke Jepun.

Laporan Utusan Malaysia:

Label Dr. M rasis agak terlampau

TOKYO 8 Dis. – Tindakan melabelkan Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad sebagai rasis hanya kerana bekas Perdana Menteri itu mempertahankan modul Biro Tata Negara (BTN) adalah agak terlampau, kata Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri berpendapat kenyataan sedemikian terutama daripada anggota kerajaan patut dielakkan supaya tidak terjebak dengan mainan politik pembangkang yang sememangnya cuba memperlekehkan pemimpin negara dan agensi kerajaan di mata rakyat.

Apatah lagi katanya, Dr. Mahathir merupakan pemimpin negara yang banyak berjasa malah pemikiran dan idea beliau masih diterima.

“Kita hendak mengelakkan timbul buruk sangka kerana dalam suasana politik negara sekarang, banyak yang boleh disalah tafsir.

“Jadi sebaik mungkin, saya rasa tidak perlulah berdebat atau berpolemik mengenai agensi-agensi kerajaan seperti BTN,” katanya pada sidang akhbar selepas menghadiri majlis ramah mesra dengan pelajar dan profesional Malaysia di Jepun di sini hari ini.

Muhyiddin berada di bandar raya kosmopolitan ini sejak semalam bagi mengetuai Misi Galakan Pelaburan Khas Ke Tokyo dan Osaka. Beliau bertolak ke Osaka malam ini.

Beliau mengulas tindakan Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Aziz yang menuduh Dr. Mahathir sebagai rasis atau bersifat perkauman kerana menolak pandangannya supaya modul kurikulum BTN dirombak bagi menggambarkan konsep 1Malaysia.

Dr. Mahathir sebelum itu mempertahankan modul BTN yang sudah lama diguna pakai kerana ia berkesan untuk rakyat Malaysia yang berbilang kaum.

Dalam hal ini, Muhyiddin mengingatkan memang menjadi strategi pembangkang sejak berkuasa di beberapa buah negeri untuk memperlekehkan semua institusi kerajaan termasuk Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM), Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM), institusi diraja mahupun BTN supaya semua rakyat akan buruk sangka terhadap kerajaan dan pemimpin.

“Ini strategi mereka. Selama ini kita tidak berdebat soal-soal begitu. BTN adalah untuk kepentingan negara dan bukan bertujuan membawa kesan buruk kepada negara.

“Jadi kalau kita terperangkap dengan agenda pembangkang, saya rasa ia mungkin membawa kesan yang tidak baik seperti kes ini sehingga pemimpin terpaksa berlaga sesama sendiri dan mereka tersenyum sahaja apabila agenda mereka berhasil,” katanya.

Muhyiddin berkata, beliau bimbang dengan gerakan tertentu yang dibuat secara halus oleh pembangkang untuk melaga-lagakan pemimpin dan memperlekehkan institusi dan agensi kerajaan.

Beliau berkata, rakyat sudah bosan dengan politiking terlampau dan pemimpin sepatutnya menghentikan debat politik dan menumpukan soal-soal yang lebih penting seperti pembangunan.

“Tapi kita kadang-kadang terperangkap dan bergaduh sesama sendiri yang bagi saya ia tidak berfaedah,” katanya.

*********

Walaupun Kepimpinan Negara (Perdana Menteri Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak di Thailand dan Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd. Yassin di Jepun) berada diluar negara ketika ini, namun kami yakin mereka peka dengan perkembangan amat negatif dari perspektif ‘Perjuangan’ dalam UMNO dan Kerajaan dengan episod BTN ini.

BTN sebagai agensi bawah JPM selama 35 tahun ini berusaha keras menentukan bahawa semangat patriotism dan nasionalism dipupuk, semarakan dan sentiasa dalam keadaan momentum untuk menentukan rakyat Malaysia, terutama orang Melayu sentiasa sedar akan tanggung jawab masing masing dan tidak leka dan lemah dalam menghadapi cabaran globalisasi.

Semangat yang sentiasa disemarakan ini merupakan asas bagaimana negara ini lahir, bermula dengan Dato’ Onn Jaafar berjaya mengumpulkan sokongan orang Melayu melalui UMNO pada 11 Mei 1946 untuk mengagalkan Malayan Union. Semangat ini juga landasan bagaimana Perjanjian Tanah Melayu berjaya dicapai pada 31 Januari 1948, yang menjadi asas Perlembagaan Persekutuan hari ini. Atas semangat yang sama, orang Melayu berjaya mengumpul dana untuk menaja rombongan Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra untuk merundingkan Kemerdekaan pada awal 1956, walaupun rata rata mereka daif dan serba kekurangan. Semangat jitu ini merupakan resolusi ‘Perjuangan’ apabila Persekutuan Tanah Melayu merdeka pada 31 Ogos 1957.

Semangat yang sama sentiasa menjadi pendoman rakyat Malaysia, terutama orang Melayu menghapai anasir kominis serantau dalam 1950-60an dan terbukti walaupun negara tidak mempunyai sumber yang banyak untuk menentang keganasan dan doktirnasi kominism, Malaya dan Malaysia berjaya mematahkan ancaman kominism berbanding dengan jiran serantau seperti Vietnam, Kemboja, Laos, Indonesia dan Filipina.

Dasar Ekonomi Baru, merupakan plan penstrukturan dan transformasi masyarakat Malaysia terutama luar bandar lahir atas semangat yang sama. Kegigihan agensi Kerajaan membangunkan mereka yang tertinggal arus pembangunan nyata berkesan dan mampu menjana negara sehingga tahap ini, termasuk program pembangunan yang amat ketara bagi orang Melayu selaku majoriti warga Malaysia dan masyarakat luar bandar.

Anasir anasir anti-Melayu dan berusaha untuk menangguk diair keruh dalam keadaan Melayu lemah dan berpecah seperti PKR dan DAP memang ternanti nanti dengan peluang ini. Kelemahan terutama jati diri orang Melayu merupakan modal yang sentiasa dicari untuk diatasi bagi mereka mengambil alih kuasa. Menyerang dan melemahkan program yang ternyata berkesan seperti BTN merupakan strategi musuk Melayu.

Apabila pemimpin UMNO sendiri men’gema’kan desakan anti Melayu yang secara strategiknya mem’bankrap’kan masa depan negar negara dan tergamak melabelkan mereka yang mempertahankan ‘Perjuangan’ menyemarakan secara berterusan semangat patriotism dan nasionalism sebagai “Bloody Racist” tidak syak lagi wajar disifatkan sebagai MENGKHIANATI BANGSA MELAYU!

Nazri Aziz: Mengkhianati Bangsa Melayu dengan menyifatkan 'Perjuangan' sebagai "Bloody Racist"

Ini adalah kontradiktori bagi Nazri kerana beliau mendapat kedudukan dalam parti dan seterusnya Kerajaan, sehingga jawatan Kabinet semenjak 1999 adalah kerana ehsan UMNO. Sekiranya mempertahankan semangat patriotism dan nasionalism yang menjadi roh Perjuangan UMNO semenjak 11 Mei 1946 disifatkan beliau sebagai “Bloody Racist”, maka Nazri sendiri merupakan seorang yang amat beruntung atas dasar dan amalan ‘perkauman’ UMNO selama ini.

NAZRI ADALAH HIPOKRIT DENGAN MENGKHIANATI ‘PERJUANGAN” DAN UMNO WAJAR MENOLAK PEMIMPIN SEBEGINI!

Polemik yang akan timbul dalam UMNO sendiri antara PM Najib dan Presiden UMNO IV Tun Dr. Mahathir atas isu ini sendirinya tidak sihat dan produktif bagi UMNO. PM Najib wajar mengelakan isu ini berpanjangan dan memberi fokus kepada isu yang lebih penting seperti usaha startegik dan taktikal musuh Melayu/UMNO dengan mengambil tindakan drastik dengan kadar segera untuk menyelesaikan isu yang berpontensi menjadi ‘kudis’ ini sekiranya dibiarkan meleret dan berpanjangan. Episod bagaimana dalam temph yang singkat majoriti orang Melayu sendiri berpadu dan paksikan kepada Tun Dr. Mahathir untuk ‘menolak’ keluar PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi walaupun ianya menentang arus perdana yang didukung jentera rasmi Kerajaan dan parti wajar menjadi pertimbangan Kepimpinan.

Oleh demikian, Kepimpinan UMNO dan seluruh warga kepimpinan atasan dan menengah UMNO wajar peka atas perkembangan yang secara strategiknya melemahkan Melayu dan mengambil tindakan drastik dengan segera. Kepimpinan UMNO terutama PM Najib dan TPM Muhyiddin wajar mengambil pendekatan tegas dan menunjukan bahawa ‘Perjuangan’ tidak sesekali boleh diperlekehkan, apatah lagi di’gadai’kan atas apa alasan pun kerana mempertahankan Hak Istimewa Orang Melayu itu adalah elemen penting dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia dan gagasan ‘1 Malaysia’ berlandaskan kepada Perlembagan dan prinsip Rukunegara.

Sekali lagi, kami mengulangi desakan serious bahawa:

NAZRI AZIZ WAJAR DIPECAT DARI KABINET DAN MT UMNO WAJAR MELUCUTKAN KEAHLIAN UMNO BELIAU

Laporan The Malaysian Insider:

Nazri: Dr M is ‘father of all racism’

Nazri said he would never resign because of the former PM. — File pic

By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 9 — Minister in the Prime Minister Department’s Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz attacked Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad again and called the former Umno president the “father of all racism” as the row between the two men over the controversial National Civics Bureau (BTN) continued.

Nazri criticised the former prime minister for being a hypocrite and said: “Who does Mahathir think he is?”

“If he can comment on others, why can’t I comment on him? Who is he? People kept telling me that he’s been in the government for 22 years. Yes but that’s not right for him to abuse people the way he abused the former PM. You mean to say he was the former PM for 22 years he can do anything he likes? I cannot agree and he’s no longer in the government.

“Last time he told us you must support the government. He was a perfect PM, I never complained. It was only after he retired, he started to attack us. He used to tell us, if one day we become a candidate and if we are dropped, we should not be angry because once that person supported us, now it’s time for us to support them.

“What is he doing now? We all supported him before through thick and thin and yet when he retired, he attacks us even worse than the opposition. Today the opposition doesn’t need to do work. Dr M is the only one attacking us. Everything is not right. During Tun Abdullah’s time, everything was not right but he’s a gentleman, he didn’t argue. Now with Najib, there is something wrong. Does he (Mahathir) want to become a PM?” Nazri told reporters at the Parliament lobby.

Nazri said he would never resign because of Dr Mahathir.

“When he wanted to resign before, we told him not to but he wanted to step down. Now he has stepped down, he’s asking me to resign. What for? I’m not going to give him the pleasure of resigning to make him happy because I’m not stupid to fall into his trap,” he said.

Nazri pointed out that if he belongs to a racist party, then Dr Mahathir is the “father of all racism” because he was the president of Umno.

“He’s saying I’m in a racist party so he confirms what I said about him. If he says I’m in a racist party because I’m a member of Umno, then he is the father of all racism, he was the president of Umno for 22 years. It confirms that I said he was a racist. Please give him some other argument lah. As the ex-PM, he should give better suggestions. I feel sorry for him but I will continue,” he added.

Nazri maintained that he was not being disrespectful of Dr Mahathir but pointed out that the former premier should accept that he is also open to criticism.

“This is democracy and free speech. I meant no disrespect to him. It’s just counter-argument to his criticism. There is no need to write to papers to say I’m disrespectful. This is a way out of the argument. Although he is an old man, he got himself involved in a matter that invites criticism from others. Don’t say when I criticise him, I’m being rude,” he said.

He added that Dr Mahathir also criticised the first prime minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman.

“When he criticised Tunku Abdul Rahman, that’s not rude? He taught me. If he does it is OK, but if we do it then it’s rude? In the 1960s he criticised the then PM, so if people do it now, don’t get angry. He’s my teacher,” he said.

Nazri also wondered why Dr Mahathir did not like him since the former premier was the one who appointed him a minister.

“I didn’t force him, I didn’t put a gun to his head and force him. He knows I’m a good minister and I’ve been a minister for three terms. Each time a new PM takes over, there are rumours that I’ll be dropped. I’ve been a minister for 10 years. I only serve the rakyat,” he said.

The former premier and the minister in the Prime Minister’s Department have been at loggerheads over the need to revamp the BTN, which critics charge with cultivating racism instead of its original purpose of nation building.

Nazri had earlier called Dr Mahathir a “bloody racist” for defending BTN courses while reasserting the Cabinet’s earlier decision to overhaul the programme in line with the policy of 1 Malaysia mooted by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

Nazri also lashed out at Dr Mahathir yesterday and described the former premier’s call for his resignation from the party as the “most stupid statement” that he has ever heard.

Dr Mahathir said that Nazri should resign from Umno because if he was against racism, he should not be in a racist party.

Nazri Aziz wajar dipecat dari Kabinet dan UMNO

Kami di BigDogDotCom mendesak agar Perdana Menteri Malaysia VI Dato’ Seri Mohd. Najib Tun Razak memecat Menteri diJabatan Perdana Menteri Dato’ Mohd, Nazri Aziz dari Kabinet dan Majlis Tertinggi UMNO memecat beliau dari parti nasionalism UMNO kerana ketelanjuran melampau menyifatkan Perdana Menteri IV Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad mempertahankan modul BTN sebagai ‘rasis’.

Ini kerana Tun Dr. Mahathir hanya mempertahankan BTN yang selama ini berkesan memupuk semangat patriotism dan nasionalism, terutama dikalangan orang Melayu sebagai majoriti warga Malaysia. Nazri wajar dikecam dengan keceluparan melampau ini atas Negarawan Berjasa dan disifatkan sebagai Pengkhianat Bangsa.

Presiden UMNO V Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad berceramah atas platform UMNO dalam negeri dikuasai Pembangkang

BTN hanyalah alat untuk menegak, memupuk dan menyemarakan semangat dan sifat patriotism dan nasionalism dikalangan rakyat Malaysia, terutama orang Melayu. Tiada timbul isu perkauman apabila meneliti soal Perjuangan. Ini kerana nasionalism yang berjaya melupuri proses Kemerdekaan itu berpunca dan diterajui oleh pemimpin politik dan Raja Raja Melayu. Perjuangan memartabatkan kepentingan orang Melayu melalui Ketuanan Melayu itu sendiri tidak menafikan hak etnik Bukan Melayu.

Semangat yang dipertahankan Tun Dr. Mahathir ini merupakan semangat nasionalism yang pemimpin terdahulu seperti Dato’ Onn Jaafar, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra, Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, Tun Dr. Ismail Abdul Rahman, Tun Abdul Ghaffar Baba dan seangkatan dengan mereka yang berjaya pupuk, semai dan semarakan melalui UMNO, mengagalkan Malayan Union, menentang kekejaman pengganas kominis dan menerahui proses yang berjaya membawa Kemerdekaan.

Baru baru ini, apabila diminta memberi komen mengenai BTN Timbalan Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Mohd. Yassin sendiri mempertahankan apa yang diusahakan oleh agensi bawah JPM itu, terutaLma apabila MB PKR Selangor Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim menyifatkan BTN sebagai mengamalkan proses indoktrinasi.

BTN Courses Not Political Indoctrination – Muhyiddin

 

MUAR, Nov 26 (Bernama) — Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin denied claims that courses run by the Biro Tatanegara (BTN) or National Civics Bureau were a form of political indoctrination, saying they were to inculcate nationalism and unity among the people in line with the 1Malaysia concept.

“BTN courses are not for ‘converting’ participants to Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN). There are no ulterior motives; these courses are well-intended,” the Deputy Prime Minister told reporters after presenting cows for the Aidiladha in Pagoh, here on Thursday.

He said that members of the public and employees of private companies should not be stopped from attending courses organised by the government’s agency.

He added that the Selangor state government and Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim were given a wrong impression on the courses run by the BTN.

Muyhiddin, who is Umno deputy president, was commenting on the decision by the Selangor government yesterday, barring state civil servants, students in state-run higher learning institutions and employees of state government-linked companies from attending courses organised by the BTN, effective immediately.

State Education, Higher Education and Human Capital Development Committee chairman Halimah Ali was reported to have said that courses run by the BTN were an indoctrination process by the BN and that they created racist phenomenon.

Muhyiddin said the Selangor menteri besar had no right to stop federal civil servants, members of the public and staff of private companies from attending BTN courses.

He said that federal civil servants were not subject to the directive issued by the state government.

“Show me under what law the Selangor menteri besar can do that,” he said, adding that the BTN would continue holding such courses.

“If Selangor does not want to participate, it’s okay; but we cannot stop the people from learning about 1Malaysia, about nationalism and unity,” he said.

On the Aidiladha, which will be celebrated tomorrow, Muhyiddin said the spirit of sacrifice should be appreciated and internalised.

At the event, Muhyiddin presented 31 cows for tomorrow’s celebration.

He also wished all Muslims in the country, including those who are still performing the haj in Mecca, a happy Aidiladha.

Nazri calls Dr M a racist for defending NCB

By MAZWIN NIK ANIS and JOSHUA FOONG

KUALA LUMPUR: Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz has called Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad a racist for defending the National Civics Bureau (NCB) training modules.

Nazri said that while he agreed with the former prime minister’s sentiments about patriotism, he felt it was not the sole rights of the Malays.

“There are many of those who came out from the course very angry as many have felt that terms like Ketuanan Melayu (Malay supremacy) is ridiculous.

“When he was prime minister he asked everyone to think as Malay-sians. Now that he is not, he’s asking everyone to think otherwise.

“If you want to talk about patriotism, it is for all,” he said when asked about the issue at Parliament lobby yesterday.

Stressing that he disagreed with any syllabus that concentrated only on one community, Nazri wanted the Opposition to point out which part of the proposed revamp of the training modules they were unhappy with.

Nazri also reminded the Oppo-sition that some of them had been directly involved with the bureau.

“Selangor PAS commissioner Datuk Dr Hassan Ali was a former bureau director. Sungai Petani MP Datuk Johari Abdul was also once a bureau officer.

“Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s father-in-law was formerly involved with the bureau as well,” added Nazri.

Meanwhile in Cyberjaya, Dr Maha-thir described the criticism levelled against the bureau’s modules, which had been around for more than 20 years, as mere exaggeration as nobody who had attended the programme had complained about it.

“The participants had always found the courses useful because they taught about new cultures and new values like discipline, honesty and to reject corruption. I don’t see what is wrong with that,” he said after witnessing the signing of an agreement between RHB Islamic Bank Berhad and Joyful Gateway Sdn Bhd on the construction of a green building.

Dr Mahathir said that when Malaysia’s history was discussed, it would be mentioned that this country was once called Tanah Melayu.

“Now it is Malaysia because we have people who have come to settle down here. That is a fact of history. You can’t deny facts and history. But if we can’t even mention that, then we are denying history,” he said.

Jika dikaji, apa sumbangan Nazri sebagai pemimpin UMNO dan Kerajaan BN, kepada orang Melayu semenjak menjadi Timbalan Menteri JPM, Menteri Pembangunan Usahawan dan Menteri DiJabatan Perdana Menteri hal ehwal Parlimen? Apa sumbangan beliau sebagai Naib Ketua Pemuda UMNO, Ketua Pemuda UMNO dan kini Ahli MT UMNO?

Tidakkah beliau sedar, kedudukan yang beliau nikmati selama ini hanyalah kerana ehsan UMNO, satu parti yang memperjuang dan martabatkan kepentingan orang Melayu?

Sekiranya ‘Perjuangan Memartabatkan dan Menjaga Kepentingan Orang Melayu’ ini dianggap perkauman (racism), maka Nazri selama 14 tahun dalam pentadbiran peringkat Kabinet ini adalah atas ehsan dasar ‘perkauman’ juga!

Presiden UMNO Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad banyak kali mengungkap secara terbuka  ”UMNO itu parti perkauman. Ini kerana UMNO berjuangan untuk kepentingan orang Melayu”.

BTN selama 35 tahun ini dengan gigih memupuk dan menyemarakan semangat patriotism dan nasionalism terutama dikalangan orang Melayu, yang sebenarnya dipelupuri dan menjadi tunggak Perjuangan yang dibawa UMNO semenjak Dato’ Onn Jaafar bejaya mengumpul dan mengembelingkan sokongan dan tenaga padu orang Melayu apda 11 Mei 1946. Menyifatkan program BTN sebagai “Bloody Racist” adalah umpama menghina Perjuangan UMNO, yang berjaya membawa orang Melayu merdeka dari penjajahan dan membangun sehingga tahap ini (berbanding dengan pribumi negara lain sekitar rantau ini).

Oleh demikian, beliau wajar meninggalkan UMNO serta merta dan menyertai parti politik lain yang tidak berlandaskan atas perjuangan nasionalism (semangat kebangsaan), seperti PKR atau DAP. Beliau wajar mengikuti jejak langkah Mantan Menteri Undang Undang Dato’ Zaid Ibrahim yang mendapat peluang untuk menbina karrier sebagai anak Melayu atas ehsan Perjuangan dan UMNO (beliau pernah menjadi peguam UMNO dan sehingga mendapat perhatian korporat), sebagai ‘Melayu Derhaka’ umpama “Kacang lupakan kulit” dan menyertai PKR.

Ahli UMNO semua peringkat seluruh negara wajar mendesak agar Nazri dipecat oleh MT UMNO sebagai ahli UMNO serta merta kerana menggangap ‘Perjuangan’ itu sebagai ‘perkauman’ (racism).

Dr M dare to Nazri: Resign from ‘racist’ Umno

KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has challenged Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz to resign from the ‘racist party’ Umno.

The former prime minister said Nazri “belongs to a party that is only meant for the Malays and no one else can join in.”

“He is a member of a racist party and he is anti-racist so he should just resign from Umno,” Dr Mahathir said after giving a keynote address at a seminar on Malaysia-Indonesia economic cooperation.

Dr Mahathir was responding to Nazri’s comment that he (Dr Mahathir) ‘is a racist for defending the National Civics Bureau (NCB training modules.’

“(He) must be right if he said so,” said Dr Mahathir.

“I must be a racist if Nazri says I am racist. Don’t ever say that I am not. He knows everything,” he added.

Dr Mahathir had previously said criticisms against the NCB modules were exaggerated.

The course, he said, should be retained as it taught valuable history lessons and instilled good values such as discipline and integrity. Nazri however reiterated his stance yesterday that the NCB should be revamped as patriotism was for all Malaysians regardless of race. He said the syllabus should not focus on patriotism for one community alone.

Kadir Jasin sued by Zaid Ibrahim

When bloggers made a lot of progress in news breaking and scoops, especially the ‘cover ups’ and gross abuse of power of the ‘establishment’ during PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s time, bloggosphere especially socio-political gained the luxury of exponential growth in readership and popularity. 

Bloggers colour Malaysian mainstream political scene when the urbanites and educated Malaysians made drastic voting pattern changes based on the writings in the blogs and multiplied the influencing effect. As such, urban seats such as Klang Valley, Penang and Selangor saw heavy losses to BN during the 12th General Elections. BN unprecendentedly lost 5 + 1 states on the 8 March 2008 ‘Doomsday’.

There were also attempts and structural effort to silence these new media. The most high profile case was NTSP dragging Supremo Blogger Ahirudin “Rocky” Attan and Jeff Ooi to court (the case is till on going).

May 2008 saw Fourth Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad jumped into the new media foray and suddenly bloggers gained new wind and a huge breadth of fresh air. More and more expose’s and commentaries are made to reflect the professionals, educated and urbanites’ feelings of the socio-political surroundings. The days of taking bloggers to court has thought to be ended.  More affluent Malaysians, which include top politicians now began to take bloggosphere very seriously. Gone were the days of taking bloggers to court, so many have thought.

Then this. Supremo-Journo-turned-blogger Dato’ Kadir Jasin now is being sued by Former Justice Minister Senator Zaid Ibrahim. What Zaid is trying to achieve is unclear. Obviously, since joining PKR, Zaid how has been infected with the  acute ‘Suit Syndrome’ that only Former-Abuse-of-Power Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim suffer. Anwar uses the court for media circus to gain attention as his stories are getting stale and he needed the ‘legal drama and sensation’ to keep his sordid politics alive.

Now Zaid has been infected with the Acute Lackofattentionitis dissease. His recent suggestion of making PAS Murshidul Am Nik Aziz as the Pakatan Rakyat Supremo drew a lot of flak within the tri-party ‘marriage of inconvenience between strange bedfellows’.

How far can Zaid go with this is also unclear. Obviously, he needed the media and legal circus to make himself ‘relevant’ to stay on visible PKR after being sacked by UMNO, now that his patron within PKR partyless-Opposition-Leader Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim has a high risk of being jailed for his second sodomy trial. For the record, recently High Court awarded Anwar with a RM 100,000 suit over NSTP, despite asking RM 100 million for it. This is probably Zaid’s inspiration.

For the record also, Zaid was the BN MP who as invited and appeared as a panelist in  the All-Blogs endorsed ‘Bangsa Malaysia’ forum, the first held to then Bloghouse in Damansara Heights. His openess for ‘new media’ and ‘alternative positive engagement’ was well accepted, especially for pro-Pakatan Rakyat bloggosphere avid readers.

This turn of event is really interesting. We are almost sure veteran-journo-blogger can defend hismelf at this game. The ‘circus’ that Zaid will create for himself will not improve the public perception on a failed-spent-bullet, which gone to ‘cry baby’ in Anwar’s camp.
