PD now known as Army Town

By ZULKIFLI ABD RAHMAN

PORT DICKSON: This popular beach resort will be known as “Port Dickson — Army Town” in recognition of the services of the army in defending the country.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, who made the announcement, said that as a beachfront town, Port Dickson also housed a large concentration of army camps and training centres, which had produced many recruits.

“The armed forces, especially the army, has made a lot of sacrifices for the sake of national peace. The new term Army Town should be given to Port Dickson, which houses tens of thousands of army personnel,” he said at the Hari Raya gathering at the Army Basic Training Centre (Pusasda) headquarters here yesterday.

Najib said the Government would implement a number of major development projects for the army in Port Dickson, to make the name Army Town more meaningful.

He called on Defence Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and the top brass in the army to provide ideas on how to develop the Army Town.

Najib said historically, as the largest partner in the armed forces, the army had carried out their duties well and exhibited professionalism in fighting off the threat of the communist terrorists and the Confrontation.

He reminded the people that the threat of communist terrorism still existed in countries such as the Philippines and Nepal, adding that the Government appreciated the army’s duties. Najib said he had been Defence Minister for 14 years and had implemented many programmes for the benefit of the armed forces — including increasing their remuneration and providing new equipment.

He hoped Ahmad Zahid would continue to provide his best service to the soldiers in his capacity as Defence Minister.

Kami di BigDogDotCom mengesa agar Port Dickson diubah nama kepada Pengkalan Adnan dan menjadi ‘Bandar Askar Melayu’ berbanding dengan ‘Bandar Tentera Darat’.

Ini kerana Askar Melayu merupakan rejimen pertama dalam Tentera Darat dan sejarah Tentera Darat bermula apabila platoon eksperimen Askar Melayu diujudkan dibandar ini pada 1933, atas usaha bangsawan Melayu ketika seperti Raja Chulan.

Panglima Lt. Adnan Saidi

Pengkalan Adnan ialah mengambil nama sempena Panglima Left. Adnan b. Saidi, wira Askar Melayu dalam pertempuran sengit Pasir Panjang dan Bukit Chandu menentang pendaratan tentera Jepun pada 14 Feb 1942. Keberanian Left. Adnan, Left. Abas dan hanya dua platoon Askar Melayu dari Kompeni C Rejimen Infantri pertama (kemudian menjadi Rejimen Askar Melayu) cuba mempertahankan kemaraan ketumbukan tentera Jepun sebesar sebuah briged amat wajar menjadi ingatan dan modal untuk menaikan semangat bangsa Melayu dan warga Malaysia yang patriotik dan menghargai kebebasan dan kedaulatan sebagai bangsa yang bermaruah dan merdeka.

Askar Melayu merupakan tunggak dan tulang belakang nadi dan semangat Tentera Darat. Sumbangan dan pengorbanan berterusan Askar Melayu wajar menjadi sandaran modal semangat untuk seluruh warga Malaysia mempertahankan kedaulatan tanahair. Rejimen ini merupakan sayap pertama Tentera Darat yang menerima panji DiRaja dan 1 RAMD masih merupakan unit istiadat (ceremonial) utama bagi segala majlis rasmi negara  melibatkan DYMM Seri Paduka Baginda Yang DiPertuan Ag0ng.

Memberikan penghormatan Port Dickson sebagai Pengkalan Adnan dan ‘Bandar Askar Melayu’ berbanding ‘Bandar Tentera Darat’ ialah pengiktirafan selayaknya kepada tradisi dan sejarah mempertahankan maruah bangsa, ugama Islam dan kedaulatan dan kemerdekaan tanahair. Sekiranya ianya ditahap ‘Bandar Tentera Darat’ bermakna kita masih lagi memberi ‘muka’ kepada warisan kolonialism dimana Garisen Port Dickson sebenarnya ialah untuk tentera darat British. Sejarah jelas menunjukan pengorbanan Askar Melayu memainkan peranan tunggak utama dan paling komprehensif mempertahankan tanahair berbanding dengan lain lain unit.

*Nota kaki: Cadangan mengubah nama Port Dickson kepada Pengkalan Adnan sesuai seperti Province Wellesley menjadi Seberang Perai, Jesselton menjadi Kota Kinabalu, Port Swettenham menjadi Pelabuhan Kelang dan Teluk Anson menjadi Teluk Intan. Kem Suvla Lines di Ipoh kini menjadi Kem Syed Putra, Kenny Hills menjadi Bukit Tunku, Jalan Birch menjadi Jalan Maharaja Lela dan Jalan Gurney pula menjadi Jalan Semarak.

Kisah ‘Anak Bapak’

Dalam keghairahan orang PAS mengagung agungkan MB Besar Kelantan Murshidul Am PAS Dato’ Nik Aziz Nik Mat sebagai pemimpin yang berjiwa rakyat, tidak korup dan hidup penuh keserdehanaan, sebagai insan marhaen yang benar benar bertaqwa, keadaan sebenar yang berlaku di’belakang tabir’ sebenarnya ‘lain padang, lain belalang’. Nik Aziz, yang disifatkan orang PAS sebagai ‘Ulama Besar’ sebenarnya mengamalkan nepotism dan kronism, dalam pentadbiran ‘Semi Diktator’ semenjak PAS mengambil alih Kerajaan Kelantan Disember 1990.

Dikhabarkan hari ini, MB Kelantan itu melantik Abdul Ariffahmi Abd Rahman sebagai Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Perbadanan Menteri Besar Kelantan (PMBK). Beliau merupakan suami Nik Amalina Nik Aziz, anak perempuan kesayangan Murshidul Am PAS itu.

Perlantikan ini menjadi kontroversi kerana Ariff disifatkan sebagai ‘tidak layak’ untuk menjawat kedudukan strategik agensi perlaburan dan perlaksana pembangunan jentera Kerajaan PAS Kelantan tersebut. Walaupun sebagai seorang juritera, beliau tidak diyakini dikalangan professional dari berkhidmat diKelantan. PMBK dipercayai mempunyai asset beratus juta Ringgit kini berada dalam keadan kesempitan tunai. Salah satu sebab ialah dipercayai Ariff yang sebelum ini COO PMBK dikatakan seorang yang boros berbelanja.

Nik Aziz atas platform DAP chauvinis Cina anti Islam bersama Lim Kit Siang

Dikhabarkan bahawa Ariff merupakan ahli UMNO Bahagian Machang. Sekiranya ini benar, maka Nik Aziz yang tidak lama dahulu mengeluarkan kenyataan celupar “Pergi jahanam UMNO” dan “Boleh berkerjasama dengan Syaitan” sebagai alasan meng’halal’kan perhubungan dan kerjasama rapat dengan DAP yang rata rata disifatkan sebagai anti-Islam itu  adah seorang pemimpin yang layak disifatkan sebagai ‘munafik’. Ini kerana semata mata politik, beliau tergamak memanipulasi kedudukan beliau sebagai ‘ulama’ yang rata rata dihormati dan mengeluarkan pendapat dari perspektif ugama Islam untuk meng’halal’kan matlamat dan cara.

Nik Aziz memberi 'endorsement' kepada anasir anti-Melayu/Islam Asia Tenggara Lee Kuan Yew

Nik Aziz juga merupakan pemimpin yang mengeluarkan kenytaan “Allah pun mencarut” untuk menghalalkan penulisan sumbang Dato’ Shahnon Ahmad “Shit”, yang diterbitkan pada tahun 1999 dan disifatkan sebagai mencemar anugerah kepada seorang Sasterawan Negara sebagai reaksi kepada episod pemecatan Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim dari Kerajaan. Ini jelas menunjukan bahawa Nik Aziz secara begitu mudah memperkudakan ugama Islam, termasuk Maha Suci Allah s.w.t. semata mata untuk kepentingan politik dan mempertahankan kecabulan bahasa dan tindakan ahli PAS seumur hidup.

 Apa apa pun, perlantikan Ariff merupakan amalan ‘Kronism’  dan ini boleh membawa kepada amalan korupsi dan salah guna kuasa, samada untuk kepentingan peribadi maupun politik. Apakah tindakan ini, yang dilihat akan membawa kepada keadaan dimana rakyat Kelantan sendiri mengumpat, jika tidak sampai ketahap memfitnah sebagai sesuatu “Yang berlandaskan Al Quran dan Sunnah”?

Lantikan ini umpama semasa pentadbiran PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi mengangkat menantunya Khairy Jamaluddin sebagai CEO Khazanah Holdings Bhd atau MOF Inc. Sedangkan beliau diambil sebagai Naib Ketua Setiausaha di Pejabat Perdana Menteri pun menjadi bahan politik Pembangkang, ini pulak mempunyai akses dan penguasaan pada harta dan dana agensi pelaburan Kerajaan Persekutuan.

Kegagalan MB Kelantan ini membangunkan Kelantan, yang rata rata merupakan negeri warga Islam per kapita paling tinggi dalam negara. Slogan “Membangun bersama Islam” sebenarnya omong omong kosong dan permainan politik yang memperkudakan emosi dan ketaatan orang Melayu atas aqidah, yang tidak langsung direalisasi pada pembangunan fizikal, modal insan dan rohaniah warga Islam Kelantan. Selama 19 tahun warga Kelantan di’nafikan’ pembangunan kerana kegagalan kepimpinan Nik Aziz.

Walaupun PMBK diujudkan bagi tujuan pembangunan, namun kelemahan kepimpinan tidak akan berjaya merealisasikan apa apa perancangan walaupun Kelantan kaya dengan sumber asli. Apabila agensi pemangkin pembangunan Kelantan seperti PMBK diPengerusikan bapa dan dilaksana dengan penguasaan eksekutif oleh menantu, maka tidak banyak yang diharapkan untuk menjaya dan realisasikan apa apa program melainkan agenda tersirat memperkuatkan propaganda agar Nik Aziz untuk bererusan berkuasa di Kelantan. Pemimpin PAS Kelantan juga pernah dikaitkan dengan salah guna kuasa seperti isu pembalakan Lojing.

Yang nyatanya, tindakan MB Kelantan Nik Aziz ini sebenarnya memperlupuri amalan Muawiyah Abi Suffian diKelantan, yang memulakan pemerintahan hierraki Khalifah Ummaiyah dalam menghalalkan amalan dinasti dan menghentikan amalan musyawarah Khalifah Ar Rashidin.

* Perkembangan dikemas kini Selasa 30 September 2009 0745am

Anak anak MB Kelantan Nik Aziz dikatakan dilantik ke beberapa badan yang ditaja Kerajaan Kelantan atau PAS Kelantan. Badan ini, seperti Yayasan Kumus dipercayai mendapat konsessi balak dan anak beliau Nik Omar Nik Aziz merupakan ahli lembaga pengarah.

 

 

Masih ada pemimpin PAS yang mengutamakan Melayu-Islam membatasi kepentingan anti Melayu-Islam

Dalam k0ntroversi Exco Hal Ehwal Ugama Islam Selangor Dato’ Dr Hasan Md. Ali mengkritik SELCAT yang diterajui pemimpin anti Islam DAP Speaker DUN Teng Chang Him dan menerima serangan bertubi tubi pemimpin Pakatan Rakyat (PR) termasuk pemimpin PAS yang pro Anwar Ibrahim, masih ada pemimpin PAS yang mempertahankan kewajaran Dr Hasan mengutamakan hak Melayu-Islam. Walaupun pemimpin PR terutamanya DAP mahu PAS mengambil tindakan keatas Dr Hasan, termasuk memecat dari parti, Timbalan Presiden PAS Nasharuddin Isa bersedia untuk menyokong tindakan Dr  Hasan.

Party leaders want Hasan to explain outburst over Selcat issue

PETALING JAYA: Despite calls from Pakatan Rakyat members for action to be taken against Selangor PAS commissioner Datuk Dr Hasan Mohamed Ali over his many outbursts, PAS leaders are standing behind him.

According to PAS deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa, the party was not planning to take disciplinary action against Dr Hasan over his most recent outburst over the Select Committee for Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) issue, although Dr Hasan would have to issue a formal explanation.

Selangor PAS is also backing Dr Hasan’s call to improve Selcat, saying that if the suggestions were accepted, the committee would function better as an organisation propagating competency, accountability and transparency.

Dr Hasan came under fire from Pakatan members and some of his colleagues over the outbursts, especially on the Selcat issue. Many have referred to him as “the only problem” and “a runaway train.”

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

Isu bagaimana PR Selangor menangani isu penjualan arak dan ‘Pemindahan kuil ke Seksyen 23 Shah Alam’ dilihat sebagai memecah belahkan PAS kepada dua kumpulan. Satu kumpulan yang masih lagi mengutama nilai ‘Melayu-Islam’ dan menolak isu sensitif seperti arak manakala satu kumpulan lagi yang mirip kepada liberal (‘Erdogan’) dan amat cederung kepada kepimpinan PR Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim, lebih mengutamakan kepentingan rakan kongsi PR seperti DAP dan PKR. Kumpulan ‘Erdogan’ ini di’taja’ oleh  Setiausaha Agung PAS Dato’ Kamaruddin Jaafar, yang juga menjadi  ‘orang kanan’ Anwar “Drama King” Ibrahim semenjak  ABIM lagi. Antara pemimpin PAS kumpulan ‘Erdogan’ yang menjadi ‘buah hati’ (darling) DAP dan PKR ialah Mantan MB-boneka-DAP Nizar Jamaluddin.

Dalam mengutamakan rakan kongsi PR yang rata rata dilihat sebagai anti Islam dan anti Melayu ini, pemimpin PAS ini sanggup mengadaikan maruah Melayu, termasuk mengepikan isu isu sensitif seperti arak demi kepentingan politik. Pemimpin PAS Selangor memang sekian lama tidak selesa dengan keputusan Kerajaan PR Selangor, terutama isu pertama yang diluluskan selepas mengambil alih kuasa ialah pembinaan pusat ternakan babi bagi skala industri dan pasaran ekspot di Sepang.

Kesan pemimpin PAS mengutamakan kepentingan DAP amat jelas walaupun dalam tempoh singkat berkuasa. Semasa MB-boneka-DAP Nizar Jamaluddin berjaya menjadi MB Perak ke IX untuk hanya sepuluh setengah bulan, kepentingan Melayu-Islam Perak digadaikan semata mata untuk menjaga keutamaan Cina chauvinis, termasuk memberikan tanah kepaa mereka yang dilihat pernah memberi sokongan kepada pengganas kominis.

Pemimpin PAS seperti Nasharuddin yang disifatkan sebagai mewakili kepentingan ‘ulama’ dan cuba di’ketepi’kan oleh pro-‘Erdogan’ dalam PAS terutama setelah berjaya mempertahankan kerusi dalam pilihanraya parti baru baru sebenarnya telah bersedia untuk berunding dan mungkin bekerjasama dengan UMNO semula dalam menjaga kepentingan Melayu-Islam, yang akhir akhir ini dilihat sebagai dicabar kalaupun tidak dicabuli oleh anasir anti Melayu-Islam, terutama DAP dan PKR. Walaupun cadangan ‘Kerajaan Perpaduan’ ini disuarakan dan sokong oleh Presiden PAS Dato’ Hj Hadi Awang dalam ucapan penggulungan Muktamar PAS, namun ianya ditentang oleh puak ‘veteran’ PAS yang amat cemburu ketirisan kuasa ‘pengaruh tradisi’ Melayu-Islam mereka seperti Murshidul Am PAS Dato’ Nik Aziz Nik Mat, walaupun dikatergorikan sebagai ulama namun membelakang kumpulan ‘Erdogan’ seperti Dato’ Husam Musa. Husam merupakan pencabar Nasharuddin bagi jawatan Timbalan Presiden PAS baru baru ini.

Kebelakangan ini, ada pemimpin PAS dilihat sebagai memartabatkan kepentingan maksiat dengan mengadaikan nilai Melayu-Islam dan perkembangan ini mengusarkan ramai akar umbi PAS. Hala tuju PAS sebagai mendukung “Perjuangan berlandaskan Al Quran dan Hadith” akan terlerai dan keyakinan orang Melayu Islam kepada PAS dijangkakan akan meleset sekiranya PAS terus memberikan keutamaan menjaga kepentingan golongan Bukan Melayu dan anti Islam, melampaui isu isu dan kepentingan Melayu-Islam.

PAS sanggup kerjakan pemimpin banding lawan kebatilan semata mata politik

PAS kini makin menyerlah sebagai parti politik yang tidak lebih dari mengunakan slogan “Al Quran dan Hadith” sebagai modal politik. lebih dari itu, mereka dilihat sanggup membelakangkan apa yang hak dan menafikan apa yang menjadi ‘prinsip perjuangan’ semata mata untuk menjaga politik bersama rakan kongsi, yang nyata tidak langsung mempertimbangkan kepentingan umat Islam, nilai moral sejagat dan mendaulatkan undang undang.

PAS man could face disciplinary action

By G. MANIMARAN

PETALING JAYA: Selangor PAS commissioner Datuk Dr Hasan Mo­­hamed Ali has been warned twice by his party for being out of line with the spirit of Pakatan Rakyat.

His recent criticism of the Se­­langor state assembly’s Committee for Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) could earn him his third reprimand.

And this time, the consequences could be harsher.

Party sources said several central committee members were pu­­shing for Dr Hasan’s to be hauled before the party’s disciplinary com­mittee.

“They want the matter referred to the disciplinary committee so it can be properly dealt with,” sources told The Star’s Malay news portal mStar Online.

The sources said many central committee members shared the view that Dr Hasan had to explain his outburst.

Dr Hasan has even been rapped by colleagues for calling for a review and revamp of Selcat’s procedures.

He had earlier hit out at Selcat, which is chaired by assembly Speaker Teng Chang Khim, for “grilling” senior civil servants over constituency allocations.

The next central committee meeting is scheduled to held on Oct 11 but will be brought forward because polling for the Bagan Pinang by-election would take place that day.

As for the past two warnings from the party’s central committee, the sources said the latest was over Dr Hasan’s proposal for restrictions on the sale of alcohol in Selangor.

The earlier one was over Dr Hasan’s stand over issues concerning the donation of sacrificial cows, purchased by Selangor State Development Corporation companies, to mosques in the Bandar Tun Razak constituency, where Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim is MP.

PAS vice-president Datuk Mahfuz Omar, when contacted, declined to confirm the matter.

“But I believe the central committee will get an explanation from Dr Hasan over this issue. We will know why he made such a statement,” he said.

PAS central committee member Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad said Dr Hasan had gone “over the limit”.

“Furthermore, he has been warned especially on the sale of alcohol issue,” said the Kuala Selangor MP.

He said Dr Hasan might have his reasons but this was not the way to express his view.

“Only the disciplinary board can decide on the action, if any, to be taken against Dr Hasan,” he said.

While Dr Hasan has been criticised for his actions, he is said to enjoy support from party president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang, deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa and Youth chief Nasrudin Hassan Tantawi.

***********

Konflik dalaman PAS yang timbul dari isu isu sosial Selangor ini menunjukan ‘taring’ sebenar Kepimpinan PAS berbanding dasar dan prinsip ‘perjuangan’ yang mereka bawa dan taja. Hari ini PAS sanggup untuk mengambil tindakan keatas Pesuruhjaya PAS Selangor Dato’ Dr Hasan Ali keatas kenyataan yang dibuat bermula dengan isu ‘Lembu Korban’ dan paling terbaru, isu penjualan arak dalam kawasan majoriti Melayu-Islam Shah Alam.

Dalam isu ‘Pemindahan Kuil Seksyen 23’ jelas menunjukan MP Shah Alam Khalid Samad dan ADUN Batu Tiga Rodziah gagal menimbangkan sensitiviti perasaan orang Melayu-Islam dan hanya memberi perhatian apabila ianya menjadi isu perkauman/fahaman ugama yang amat rumit dan mendapat perhatian bukan setakat peringkat nasional, malah global.

Kegagalan PAS untuk mendukung apa yang dipertahankan Dr Hasan jelas menunjukan bahawa “Membangun bersama Islam” hanyalah omong omong kosong dan PAS hanya merupakan ‘promoter slogan’ yang sebenarnya tidak membawa apa apa erti. Bukan sahaja Islam tidak dipertingkatkan semenjak PAS mengambil peranan dalam Kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat Selangor semenjak 8 Mac 2008, malah yariah Islam dan kepentingan orang Islam Selangor sebenarnya makin mundur dengan kegagalan PAS memperjuangkan isu isu arak, maksiat dan kegiatan jenayah berkaitan kongsi gelap yang makin menular setelah Pakatan Rakyat (PR) mengambil alih pentadbiran kerajaan negeri.

Sekiranya PAS mengambil tindakan keatas Dr Hasan, in bermakna PAS sebenarnya hanya bersedia untuk mewujudkan alasan demi alasan untuk jaga politik rakan kongsi yang dengan jelas tidak memperdulikan mengenai Islam dan malah bersifat anti Islam dan mengadaikan kepentingan majoriti Melayu-Islam.

Konflik dalaman serious PAS mengenai ‘cadangan kerjasama’ dengan UMNO adala illustrasi jelas bahawa PAS lebih minat untuk bermain politik bersama rakan PR berbanding menjaga kepentingan strategik Melayu-Islam, yang menjadi 55% majoriti warga Malaysia. Dalam analisis akhir, PAS berjaya menjadi  diperkudakan dan alat anasir anti Islam/Melayu seperti agen Yahudi Neo Con dan chauvinis Cina  anak didik Lee Kuan Yew.

PAS memartabatkan kepentingan maksiat minoriti kafir banding hukum Allah

Pertelingkahan terbuka mengenai isu dan dasar arak (alkohol) dalam Selangor merupakan illustrasi sebenar sesiapa dan dimana kedudukan Pemimpin PAS. Terbukti jelas, demi politik dan pengaruh dalam Pakatan Rakyat (PR), Pemimpin PAS bertelingkah secara terbuka sehingga tahap membelakangkan hukum Allah s.w.t. dan membatasi nilai moral demi kepentingan maksiat orang kafir dan golongan minoriti.

Ultimatum for Selangor Pas chief:
Toe the line or get out

2009/09/24

V. Shankar Ganesh

KLANG: Pressure is mounting on Selangor Pas state commissioner Datuk Dr Hasan Ali to leave Pakatan Rakyat for his inability to “conduct himself as a team player”.

As the fallout from Hasan’s criticism of the Select Committee on Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) continues, the menteri besar has also been urged to write to the Pas leadership demanding answers for Hasan’s behaviour.

Pas’ Shah Alam member of parliament Khalid Samad said if Hasan could not function as a team player in the PR government, he should do the right thing and leave.

He said the Pas leadership should also evaluate Hasan’s performance as the state Pas chief and an executive council member as he constantly raised issues that made the coalition look unstable.

Datuk Dr Hasan Ali under pressure to leave Pakatan Rakyat

“He should be reprimanded by the Pas leadership for his actions,” Khalid said when contacted yesterday.

He said Hasan’s statements were viewed as Selangor Pas’ stand but that was not the case as they were never discussed at any party meeting.

 

 

Hasan was in the news after he criticised Selcat proceedings. Selcat had called up district officers to explain how allocations of RM500,000 each to each assemblymen by the previous state administration had been disbursed within the first two months of last year.

Hasan had complained that Selcat was bullying and victimising the officers.
He also said Selcat should be revamped.

Parti Keadilan Rakyat vice-president and Hulu Kelang assemblyman Azmin Ali said Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim should send a letter to the Pas leadership asking for an explanation.

“He must demand an explanation on Hasan’s attitude which is contrary to the Pakatan spirit of cooperation.”

Azmin said it should also be brought up in the PR presidential council meeting.

He added that he did not know whether it was mere coincidence or deliberate that Hasan’s actions, in bringing up issues such as beer sales or Selcat, came during by-elections.

 The beer issue happened during the Permatang Pasir by-election while the Bagan Pinang by-election is next month.

Klang MP Charles Santiago, from the DAP, also said that Hasan should leave the coalition if he felt he could not agree with its decisions.

He said Hasan should stop playing the race card by trying to show that he was fighting for the Malays.

Santiago said Hasan seemed to be portraying himself as a Malay champion against Selcat chairman Teng Chang Kim.

Pas’ Tumpat MP Datuk Kamaruddin Jaffar said calling up senior civil servants to testify was normal parliamentary practice.

Kamaruddin, a second-term Parliament Public Accounts Committee member, said even ministers and the attorney general had appeared before the PAC.

“There were no complaints then.

“There is no issue of bullying or treating them like schoolchildren,” added the former Pas secretary-general.

In the case of Selcat, he said, calling up district officers could be termed as normal.

PKR supreme council member and fellow state executive councillor Dr Xavier Jayakumar said Hasan had crossed the line once too often and something must be done to stop this.

Hasan could not be reached for comment.

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

Isu ini timbul apabila Dato Dr Hasan Ali , Exco Hal Ehwal Ugama Islam Kerajaan PR Selangor membidas tindakan Ronnie Liu (DAP), Exco Kerajaan Tempatan Kerajaan PR Selangor apabila pegawai JAIS menghalang penjualan terbuka arak dalam kawasan majoriti Melayu Shah Alam. Beberapa kenyataan rasmi Kerajaan PR Selangor yang bercanggah dikeluarkan selepas itu. Ini menimbulkan kekeliruan dan keresahan dikalangan rakyat.

Isu menjadi lebih rumit apabila Dr Hasan dititahkan untuk mengadap DYMM Sultan Selangor untuk menjelaskan kedudukan dan ketetapan Kerajaan PR Selangor dan bukanya MB Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim. Isu ini juga dibawa ke Selcat, dimana ianya dipengerusikan Speaker DUN Selangor Teng Chang Kim, yang mewakili golongan chauvinis China DAP. Pegawai Kerajaan Negeri Selangor difahamkan meluahkan ketidak puasan hati mereka mengenai isu pengagihan peruntukan DUN dan cara Selcat mempersoalkan proses dan amalan pentadbiran.

Isu isu ini menunjukan jelas ‘Taring’ sebenar Pemimpin PR, yang sebenarnya ‘tidak sebulu dan sehaluan sehingga tahap bercanggah’, dalam aspirasi dan dasar. Ini makin rumit apabila berlaku proses perlaksanaan. Pemimpin PR hanya lebih berminat untuk bermain politik sehingga tahap mengadaikan bukan sahaja membelakangkan kepentingan majoriti mebatasi kehendak minoriti, malah melepasi sempadan norma kebudayaan, moral dan kepercayaan ugama, termasuk akidah bagi yang berugama Islam.

Sebagai parti yang kunun kunun berlandaskan Firman dan Hukum Allah s.w.t. dan sunnah Rasululllah S.A.W., amat jelas bahawa perjuangan PAS merupakan hanya untuk meraih sokongan politik, termasuk undi Bukan Islam dan Bukan Melayu. Kemampuan memperkukuhkan kuasa mejadikan ‘cara menghalakan matlamaf’.

Ini bukan kali pertama Pemimpin PAS Selangor membelakangkan kepentingan majoriti, termasuk Islam sebagai ugama Persekutuan Malaysia. MP Shah Alam Khalid Samad dan ADUN Batu Tiga Rodziah sebelum ini pernah membelakangkan bantahan penduduk Seksyen 19 dan 23 Shah Alam, yang majoritinya orang Melayu dan Islam mengenai isu pemindahan kuil Hindu sehingga berlaku kejadian perkauman dan menyinggung antara fahaman ugama berbeza.

Sebelum itu,dalam keputusan pertama Kerajaan PR Selangor atas cadangan membina sebuah pusat menternak babi skala industri bagi tujuan pasaran ekspot adalah tanda awal kegagalan PAS menjaga kepentingan dan sensitiviti orang Melayu dan Islam, sebagai warga majoriti negeri Selangor Darul Ehsan.

Dalam analisis akhir, PR jelas dengan segala idealism universal yang sebenarnya menimbulkan pelbagai komplikasi akibat memartabatkan kepentingan minoriti membatasi kepentingan majoriti merugikan rakyat dan negeri Selangor, negeri paling kaya, mengunakan paling banyak sumber dan ramai warga dalam Persekutuan Malaysia.

Bagi PAS, keghairahan “Membangun bersama Islam” hanyalah setakat slogan semata semata kerana parti politik ini nyata gagal melaksanakan apa apa kebaikan dan kemajuan bagi umat Islam dan proses meningkatkan syiar dan syariah Islam, walaupun sudah berkuasa dalam negeri yang paling kaya yang banyak sumber ini. Perkembangan ini  wajar menjadi pertimbangan bagi semua umat Islam agar tidak lagi dipengaruhi emosi dan idealism berasaskan janji  yang sebenarnya tidak praktikal untuk dilaksanakan dalam kepelbagaian dunia moden hari ini.

More of Ketuanan Rakyat cracking: ‘Bagi bunga kepada beruk’

Previously, we discussed about MB Selangor Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim’s days are numbered and probable very sticky sucession plan as there are infightings within Pakatan Rakyat (PR) strange bedfellows and intra party ‘sibling rivalry’. It seems the problem is worsening, especially taken on the official front.

Hasan Ali a thorn in Selangor, say Pakatan Rakyat reps

By WANI MUTHIAH

KLANG: Trouble is brewing in Selangor Pakatan Rakyat with its members turning on PAS, specifically Datuk Dr Hasan Ali, who has become increasingly isolated over the last few days over his many outbursts.

Speaker Teng Chang Khim, who is from DAP, has singled out the Selangor PAS commissioner and exco member as the “only problem” in the partnership that was forged after the March 8 general election.

“There is no communication breakdown among coalition members. Hasan Ali is the only problem in the coalition and he has been consistently inconsistent on various issues,” he said, adding that as exco member, Dr Hasan could have brought up his dissatisfaction through the right channels.

Dr Hasan’s most recent outburst was the calling for a revamp of the Select Committee for Competency, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat), which had come under fire from him for their “grilling” of senior civil servants over allocations.

He had argued that members of Selcat — which is currently staffed by legislative assembly members from both Pakatan and Barisan Nasional — should be made up of eminent persons without political inclinations.

Prior to this, Dr Hasan had also quarrelled with DAP exco member Ronnie Liu over the sale of beer in the state and had wanted to impose a blanket ban on alcohol sale in retail outlets in Muslim majority areas.

Teng, who heads Selcat, said the executive council had weekly meetings.

“There is no reason why he should attack Selcat in the open. He’s trying to take advantage of the situation to gain politically,” he alleged.

DAP Klang MP Charles Santiago was more blunt, calling for Dr Hasan to be disciplined by his party leaders and removed as both state commissioner and exco member.

“We will be stronger and better in Selangor without him. PAS should remove him to protect our best interests.

“He is wrongfully giving the impression that things are not well. There always appears to be two voices to everything with him around,” he added.

“He wants to send a message that he is the one who will protect the Malays in Selangor,” claimed Santiago.

Even Dr Hasan’s party colleague Saari Sungib, who is a Selcat member, has distanced himself, saying that the former should be referred to the House Privileges Committee for making public outbursts.

PKR exco member Yaakob Sapari denied any cracks, saying the group practised freedom of speech and encouraged people to speak up.

“We are allowed to say anything we want and air our views. There’s no problem among us,” he said, pointing out that Dr Hasan’s voicing of opinion should not be misconstrued as trouble.

PAS exco member Iskandar Abdul Samad said it was natural for Pakatan members, who were from three different political parties with different ideologies and philosophies, to have opposing views at times.

“That doesn’t mean there’s a rift between us, because at the end of the day, we can all sit down together, discuss the matter amicably and arrive at a single decision,” he said, adding that any final decision rested with the state’s executive council.

Dr Hasan was not available for comment at press time.

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

Maybe DAP Selangor DUN Speaker Teng and MP Santiago ‘conveniently forgotten’ that Dr Hasan is not only ‘thorn in Selangor ‘PR’s bottoms’, despite DAP has this really prickly ‘unholy marriage of inconvenience; with PAS. Especially when DAP Chairman Karpal Singh sounded out PAS Leadership via mainstream media. When DAP elected representatives were ‘entangled’ with law (pertaining to linakges with Lords of the Underworld Vices), it was PKR Gombak ADUN who called for State Exco to be revamped. Another PKR representatives, who was a former DAP MP lauds the call. To falsely maintain ‘unity’ within PR is pertinent at this junction, as bigger agenda for that looms defacto PR Leader Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim is more damning.

This ‘freedom of speech’ excuse is really unbelievable as the bickering is taken out in the open and sundry. This is what you get strange bedfellows with totally opposite dreams, aspirations and ambitions get married for the ‘inconvenience’ and all the wrong reasons.

Not only PR Leaders spend too much resources playing politics against BN, they play politics amongst themselves. All these are at the expense of the general interests of the rakyat of Selangor. Fourth Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad always reminded Malaysians that they “Deserve the Government they elect”. Within eighteen months, so many  conundrum and scandals developed. Of course the failure of party-less Opposition Leader Anwar “Mat King Leader” Ibrahim to deliver promises is the push-factor that the support for PR should be reviewed at this juncture.

The future of Malaysians and progress of tanahair should not be gambled, for the sake of emotions and confidence based on false hopes. For what ever the short comings of the previous administration, it is proven gravely wrong that the support has been given to the wrong people just like Selangorians should no longer give ‘flower to the monkey’ (Beri bunga kepada beruk). On top of that, some of theese damages caused by ‘giving the rat to fix the pumpkin’ (Bagi tikus membaiki labu) would definitely take years if not decades to undo and get things on the right track, all over again.

 

Many ways of skinning a cat and yet….

There are, many ways of ‘skinning a cat’ and yet, some chose to do it in this manner. It is not clearly why it was done in this way. However, one could only guess there is an ulterior motive to make a ‘fast one’, out of the circumtances on the ability to turn and manipulate perception of the whole incident and misfortune of others.

The fact still remain. There was a ‘bar brawl’ and one party walked away. Regardless what one says in a media conference, the fact is that one actually went to the other party’s hotel not so long later when the latter actually already walked away from what could escalate into an ugly scene.

At one of most preferred inn address in town, the ‘unsatisfied party’ was stopped from proceeding. Maybe they were in ‘an undesirable state of presentation’ (being sons of gentlemen and sundry) at the point of time. Maybe they were ‘influenced’ by some substance, when led to their ‘apparent’ agressive state. Regardless, at wee hours in the morning, inn keepers were ‘very reluctant’ to allow persons in such state to ‘proceed further’.

Then the  ‘interrupted bar brawl’ which should have been avoided was continued.

The outcome of the incident at the Sultan Ismail hotel is not really certain. The fact still remain the call for the Dang Wangi Police was made by the ‘occupants’ of hotel instead  of the ‘agressors’. If the ‘agressors’ were ‘held against their will’, then the ‘captors’ made a lousy job of allowing them to hold on to their mobile phones and thus making calls and sending smses. The agressors should have gone to the Police and requested assistance to free their ‘abducted’ sons but non avail.

Why did hours later, then only the aggrieved party came forward to make a statement to the Police? Is it becuase thy wanted the affect of certain ”substance” and wear of first before they could present themselves and make an official complaint to the Police?

Eighteen statements were recorded by the Police from the persons who stayed at The Crowne Plaza, which include  second heir to the throne of state (whose statement was recorded by the Police in Kelantan, where HRH was under going airborne practical course). Regardless what people stated in their media conference which eventually built a public perception; the occupants of the Crowne Plaza were miding their own affairs in the comfort of their suites when ‘trouble’ came to them. Naturally, they have the right to protect themselves. More over if it involves a second heir to a state throne.

The mother claims her son is “priceless”. At yet at the media conference, contradictorily she admitted that her lawyer demanded a whopping sum of RM 50 million and an apology.

We are not sure why after 11 months, the case did not progress further. Probably the statements recorded were contradictory to each other and yet making the process difficult. Regardless, going to the press and media is a grave mistake. After all, it came to public attention that the “aggrieved party” did demand a RM 50 million ‘settlement fee’, it almost sound like an organised extortion and a ‘Royal Black Mail’.

Lets see what will develop from this and the Johoreans’ next step of action.  Never the less, making a media circus by washing dirty linen in public three days before Hari Raya Aidil Fitri is utterly distasteful. What more if it was called by a daughter of a former SPB YDP Agong.

The Malay Mail scooped the story on HRH Raja Muda Johor who thought the RM 50 million was “unreasonable and shouldn’t be entertained”.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri 1430H

Sempena 1 Syawal 1430H, Kami di BigDogDotCom ingin mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri and merafak sembah memohon maaf atas ketelanjuran kata dan bahasa.

Mana janji ’16 September’ Anwar?

Kini telah berlalu dua ’16 September’. Mana janji Anwar “Mat King Leather” Ibrahim untuk Pakatan Rakyat mengambil alih Kerajaan Persekutuan?

Siapa sebenarnya  31 MP BN itu dan dimanakah mereka sekarang ini? Sekiranya mereka ‘berjaya dibeli’ (sebagaimana pendapat paling popular dikalangan Pakatan Rakyat Primates dan pengikut fanatik mereka), kenapa tidak pernah sesiapa pun menyenaraikan segala habuan, kontrak, deal dan/atau imbuhan (samada dalam bentuk kewangan, material dan/atau ‘sogokan/tebusan (ransom) politik’) kerana tidak meninggalkan BN?

Mana janji Anwar “Pengkhianat Negara” Ibrahim untuk melaksanakan ‘Ketuanan Rakyat’ dalam empat negeri yang masih lagi bawah Pakatan Rakyat? (Maaflah, satu negeri dah ‘terlepas’ ketangan BN!)

Kedua dua ’16 September’ ini merupakan hari dalam bulan paling mulia, Ramadhan. Rakyat Malaysia, terutama ahli UMNO wajar waspada dengan Anwar “Hipokrit” Ibrahim ini.

Apakah Anwar tidak rasa bersalah langsung tidak lunas janji, yang sepatutnya ditunaikan dalam bulan mulia ini?

 

P/S Apakah pengikut tegar Pakatan Rakyat Primates bersedia untuk mengaku dan pasrah bahawa mereka sebenarnya ditipu bulat bulat dan hidup hidup, oleh Anwar “Pembohong” Ibrahim?

BN should really sack MIC!

After Paya Besar  MIC delegate Peter Sugumaran apologized in the Malay Mail, some MIC Leaders really want to use the opportunity ‘rub it in’ and insult UMNO. MIC Youth Chief T Mohan carpe diem in reciprocity now demanded  UMNO to act against former President Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad for ‘interfering with the campaign in a party elections’.

Malay Mail has the story.

This is utterly outrageous! MIC as a BN component party conveniently and negligently failed to recognize that Peter Murugan’s uncouth utterance was done in Dewan Merdeka, the main hall of UMNO party head quarters. MIC Leaders should do the ‘collective responsibility’ thing, as Sugumaran was a delegate in an official party forum.

More over MIC as a component party which benefitted from the grace of the Malay voters via the campaigned instilled by UMNO should be grateful that Indian representatives are elected into Dewan Rakyat and State Assemblies, even as Senators in Dewan Negara ever since democracy is practiced, considering that there is no one single constituency can amass outright Indian ethnic votes to elect one into any of the augur houses.

MIC should the very least use this episode as an opportunity to change the Leadership, in the attempt to woo back ethnic Indian votes to the party. It is o obvious that not only the MIC Preisdent is holistically no longer acceptable, MIC itself is so unpopular amongst Malaysian Indians, especially the younger ones. And yet, not only MIC Leaders failed to see how Malaysians, especially the Malays will react upon Peter Murugan’s uncouth utterance against a much loved Statesman, they even felt that the Third BN Chairman should instead be reprimanded for speaking the truth on behalf of so many grassroot Malaysians, including ethnic Indians.

UMNO should insist that BN really consider sacking MIC from the coalition party. How dare the MIC Youth Chief takes the matter onwards in this uncouth manner? Undoubtably, Samy Vellu must take full responsibility of this MIC Youth Chief’s ‘KURANG AJARNESS’!

For this ‘KURANG AJARNESS’, it is really time for MIC to “Make like a tree and leaf (leave)”.
