7 teras utama Belanjawan Pakatan Rakyat 2013...


Belanjawan Pakatan Rakyat 2013 meletakkan tujuh fokus sebagai teras utama agar ia selari dengan matlamat mengawal defisit dan menurunkan hutang negara.

Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim ketika membentangkan belanjawan bertema Ekonomi Rakyat Negara Berkat tersebut menegaskan antara tujuh perkara teras itu adalah mengangkat martabat wanita.

"Kita ingin meningkatkan martabat kaum wanita dan atas usaha itu kita (Pakatan Rakyat) akan melaksanakan Caruman Wanita Nasional untuk suri rumag membabitkan peruntukan RM3 bilion setiap tahun.

"Selain itu juga kita akan memastikan reformasi dan ketelusan pada syarikat-syarikat milik kerajaan (GLC) dengan antara lain kita akan membubarkan 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) kerana mempunyai fungsi yang sama dengan Khazanah Nasional" jelas beliau di Bilik Taklimat di Parlimen.

Tambahnya lagi, melalui belanjawan kali ini juga Pakatan Rakyat turut mewujudkan bina dayasaing demi pertumbuhan dengan mengubal undang-undang anti-monopoli dan Suruhanjaya Anti Monopoli demi menggalakan pertumbuhan syarikat bersaiz sederhana dan merombak herotan ekonomi.

Hasil minyak untuk negeri turut diutamakan dengan menubuhkan syarikat-syarikat minyak PetroSabah, PetroSarawak, PetroTerengganu untuk menyertai pembangunan lapangan kecil (marginal field) yang kini diboloti oleh syarikat kroni.

"Skim khusus diwujudkan agar Petronas menaungi syarikat-syarikat ini supaya dapat bersaing di peringkat antarabangsa dalam tempoh 10 tahun.

"Mengenai perumahan rakyat, penubuhan Perbadanan Perumahan Negara untuk menjalankan amanah menyediakan perumahan mampu milik secara besar-besaran," kata beliau.

Tambahnya lagi, melalui perumahan rakyat ini program pemilikan bersama (50:50) di antara kerajaan dan rakyat bagi perumahan terpilih.


Selain penurunan harga kereta menjadi teras utama, reformasi Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) juga diberi perhatian dengan mengalihkan sumber manusia dan kewangan kepada kegiatan membanteras jenayah.

Malah kenaikan gaji sebanyak 5 peratus kepada anggota juga turut akan diumumkan, tidak ketinggalan juga pengumuman kenaikan gaji 20 peratus kepada kakitangan perubatan.

Belanjawan yang meletakkan jumlah perbelanjaan RM233 bilion iaitu jumlah lebih kecil dari jumlah yang dijangka diumumkan oleh kerajaan iaitu melepasi RN250 bilion tetapi terus meningkat sebanyak RM13 bilion berbanding Belanjawan Pakatan Rakyat 2012.

Selain itu juga pertumbuhan ekonomi pengikut penganalisis dan ramalan ekonomi kekal optimistik pada kadar 5.2 peratus berbanding kerajaan yang menggunakan unjuran 5 hingga 6 peratus.

Dalam pada itu sasaran yang lebih drastik pada defisit belanjawan apabila Pakatan Rakyat mensasarkan 3.5 peratus jika dibandingkan pada belanjawan yang dibuat pada Belanjawan Pakatan Rakyat 2012 yang meletakkan 4.4 peratus.

Walaubagaimana pun, kerajaan dijangkakan mengumumkan defisit sekitar 4 peratus kerana angka Keluaran Dalam Negara Kasar (KDNK) telah disemak kembali menggunakan asas harga tahun 2005.- harakahdaily

Alternative budget sans ethnic-based policies...

The Pakatan Rakyat shadow budget will not have provisions for ethnic-based affirmative action, said Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim.

NONEPresenting the budget ahead of the 2013 federal budget, due to be tabled on Friday, Anwar said this is based on the experience of Pakatan-governed states.

"The country must move to a new phase because bumiputera policies have been abused to enrich a few. Support (for the needy) through affirmative action will continue, but there is no need for it to be ethnic-based to be able to help the poor," he said.

In Selangor and Penang,, he said, policies like micro-credit programmes are not ethnic-based, but the majority of recipients have been bumiputeras anyway because they pass the means test.

"This means that ethnic Indians who qualify also get assistance, and this does not rob the rights of the Malays," he said.

The 2013 shadow budget also aims to abolish government company 1Malaysian Development Berhad (1MBD) with all of its interests to be taken over by the federal investment arm Khazanah Malaysia.


azlan1MDB is a trick to allow the prime minister direct powers over this mega-company, but a Pakatan Rakyat PM will not need this,” said Anwar.

“We will surrender this to Khazanah, as there is no need for a (government-linked) company overseen by the PM and his family.”

The shadow budget, themed Ekonomi Rakyat, Negara Berkat (People's Economy, Blessed Country) states that Khazanah will, in 2013, pay the government RM2 billion in dividends, when none is paid today.


Anwar said that, based on its budget, Pakatan will be able to cut deficit to 3.5 percent of GDP, which is projected to grow by 5.3 percent in 2013.

“We also choose to present a realistic and truthful account of the economy, and project that inflation will be 3 percent, as opposed to the 1.6 percent projected by the BN government,” he said.

Project revenue according to the shadow budget is RM197 billion, while expenditure is estimated at RM234 billion, of which RM185 billion is operational and RM49 billion is development.

Anwar said there will be no rationalisation of subsidies, as the coalition will be prioritising on curbing corruption and leakages to create savings.

“We don't believe in starting with punishing the poor (by slashing subsidies) ... Not only will there be no rationalisation of subsidy, but we'll ensure the policy will be more transparent and assist the poor and middle income (groups) where possible,” he said.
