Pakatan masih belum pasti mengangkat Nizar sebagai MB Perak jika menang PRU13...
Pakatan Rakyat (PR) sangat yakin mereka boleh membentuk kerajaan negeri Perak selepas Pilihan Raya 2013 akan tetapi pemimpin negeri masih lagi belum menetapkan siapa calon menteri besar di sebalik Barisan Nasional (BN) yang turut yakin akan dapat mempertahankan negeri tersebut.The Malaysian Insider difahamkan di kala majoriti kepimpinan tertinggi DAP dan sebahagian dari PAS masih mahu Datuk Seri Nizar Jamaluddin mengisi jawatan tersebut, sebahagian mengintainya untuk diri sendiri dan percaya pemimpin lantang PAS itu tidak sesuai untuk dicalonkan kali ini.
Seorang Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) PR Perak yang tidak mahu dinamakan mengatakan terdapat segelintir dalam PAS merasakan Nizar tidak seharusnya mengambil jawatan tersebut oleh kerana ketidak popularan beliau di kalangan majoriti masyarakat Melayu konservatif negeri tersebut.
Akan tetapi oleh kerana sokongan kuat di kalangan bukan Melayu, terutamanya Cina dan Muslim liberal, ADUN tersebut mengatakan DAP Perak bertegas Nizar yang berumur 56 tahun itu akan kembali memimpin negeri selepas Pilihan Raya 2013.
“Masih dibangkitkan isu Nizar adalah boneka DAP… ketika beliau masih MB, beliau hanya mengikut apa yang dikatakan oleh pemimpin DAP.
“Saya dengar PAS turut mempunyai masalah dengan beliau… beliau tidak dipilih sebagai calon MB, walaupun telah dipersetujui ini akan dibincangkan jika Pakatan menang di Perak sekali lagi,” kata ADUN tersebut kepada The Malaysian Insider.

Aku setuju dengan pandangan blogger di bawah ini...
Isu Menteri Besar Perak ni aku dah lama serabut kepala, sungguh-sungguh aku tak faham pasai apa Pakatan Rakyat Perak tak sungguh-sungguh tonjolkan Hj Nizar sebagai calon Menteri Besar jika dapat tawan balik Perak selepas PRU13 nanti.
Takkan kut depa tak sedar Hj Nizar adalah satu-satunya produk yang Pakatan Rakyat Perak ada yang dah cukup terkenal selepas dilantik sebagai MB Perak selepas tawan Perak pada PRU12 yang lalu.
Dari seorang pemimpin PAS yang orang PAS pun ramai yang tak kenal tiba-tiba jadi terkenal bukan saja di Perak tapi diseluruh Malaysia. Dan kewibawaan dia memang terserlah dan diakui oleh kawan dan lawan.
Dengan kelulusan yang dia ada ditambah dengan keterampilah dan juga PR dia, produk yang cukup mahal ni cukup mudah untuk 'dijual' sebagai ikon.
Setakat yang selalu diperkatakan Hj Nizar cuma ada 2 masalah. Yang pertama dia dilabel sebagai boneka DAP oleh penchachai Umno BN. Takkan soalan yang mudah macam ni pun Pakatan Rakyat Perak tak boleh jawab?
Kalau betul-betul 'all out' isu ni aku rasa sekejap saja isu ni boleh Pakatan Rakyat padam.
Lagipun jawapan yang Pakatan Rakyat bagi sebelum ni pun dah cukup jelas dan mudahuntuk difahami. Cuma masalahnya jawapan tu mungkin tak sampai ke ke sasaran yang tepat. Masih ramai lagi rakyat Perak yang tak berpeluang untuk dengar jawapan Pakatan Rakyat tu.-

Masalah yang kedua, Hj Nizar dikatakan tak disukai oleh pihak Istana. Pada aku mudah saja. Peduli apa Istana suka atau tidak. Peduli ada Istana suka atau tidak. Berapa sangat undi yang ada di Istana Perak tu. Yang akan tentukan menang atau kalah Pakatan Rakyat adalah undi rakyat Perak.
Macam jugak isu boneka DAP, isu ni pun tak susah mana untuk Pakatan Rakyat jawab dan jawapan yang Pakatan Rakyat bentangkan sebelum ni pun pada aku dah cukup power. Hj Nizar bukannya derhaka kepada Istana, dia cuma mempertahankan hasrat majoriti rakyat di Istana.
Lagi satu yang aku sangat-sangat serabut. Pemimpin Pakatan Rakyat sendiri macam tak berapa suka Hj Nizar jadi Menteri Besar Perak.
Dan yang paling aku tak puas hati, pemimpin PAS Perak sendiri pun macam tak mau Hj Nizar jadi menteri besar Perak.
Malah cerita khabar angin Hj Nizar tak disukai oleh pihak Istana pun digenbar-genburkan oleh pihak PAS Perak sendiri.
Bila depa turun ke bawah jumpa akar umbi, antara benda yang selalu depa tekankan adalah supaya pihak akar umbi ketepikan segala sengketa yang ada dan fokus untuk buat kerja tawan Perak, tapi depa sendiri tak fokus, sibuk mencatur sampai produk yang cukup berharga yang cukup mudah 'dijual' untuk menjamin kemenangan Pakatan Rakyat Perak diketepikan.
Yang paling aku sedih bercampur marah dan terlalu meluat bila dengar banyak khabar angin yang kata ada beberapa orang pemimpin PAS Perak secara terbuka lahirkan hasrat berminat nak jadi MB Perak. Sudah-sudah la buat kerja politik BANGANG macam tu.
Apa pun, aku sangat-sangat harap segala khabar angin tu palsu belaka...cenangau.blogspot
Poser over Perak MB post as Pakatan dithers on Nizar
Pakatan Rakyat (PR) strongly believes it can form the next Perak government in Election 2013 but state leaders here are still mulling the choice for mentri besar despite Barisan Nasional’s (BN) confidence in keeping the silver state.The Malaysian Insider understands that while most in the Perak DAP top leadership and some in PAS are still keen on reinstalling Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin back into the post, others may be eyeing it for themselves, believing the outspoken PAS leader may not be the best candidate this time around.
One Perak PR assemblyman, who refused to be named, said there are those in PAS who feel Nizar should not take on the post, purportedly due to his flagging popularity among the state’s more conservative Malays.
But due to Nizar’s large following among the non-Malays, particularly the Chinese, and Muslim liberals, the assemblyman said Perak DAP is insistent that the 56-year-old first-term assemblyman be returned to the state’s helm after Election 2013.
“Still, there is still that issue being played up that Nizar is a DAP stooge... that when he was the MB, he was only at the beck and call of DAP’s leaders.
“I heard PAS has problems with him as well... and they have not selected him as MB-designate, although it has been agreed that this will be discussed should Pakatan win Perak again,” the assemblyman told The Malaysian Insider.

Battle after the ‘coup’...
With Perak's political life having been under the shadows of the constitutional crisis of 2009, how far will voter sentiment be swayed by bread-and-butter issues in GE13?Perak drew the attention of the whole nation in 2009 when the infamous "constitutional coup" - three Pakatan Rakyat (PR) assemblymen left their parties to become friendly to Barisan Nasional (BN) – allowed BN to controversially wrest the government from PR.
Certainly, the dramatic scenes in and around the state assembly then have become etched in the memories of Perak voters, and will likely influence them in the upcoming 13th general election (GE13).
Perak, also known as the "Abode of Grace", however, had mostly been in the firm grip of BN since Merdeka in 1957. The grassroots sentiments have always been business-centric, reflected by the state's historical activities in industries like tin mining and plantations. Politics had seemingly always been secondary.
The exception to this trend came during a near upset to BN rule in 1969 when the People's Progressive Party (PPP) led by party co-founder SP Seenivasagam won four Parliamentary seats and 12 state seats – just two seats short of forming the state government.
Today, Perak is home to top leaders like BN's de facto law minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz (who won Padang Rengas parliamentary seat in 2008), UMNO vice president Datuk Seri Zahid Hamidi (Bagan Datoh) and DAP's Nga Kor Ming (Taiping).
In March 2008, PR won 11 parliamentary seats and 31 legislative state seats, forming a state government with PAS' Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin appointed Mentri Besar.
Just eleven months later, when the three Pakatan assemblymen defected, the Sultan of Perak refused Nizar's request to dissolve the state assembly and call for new elections. BN with the support of the trio formed the new state government with Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir as the new Menteri Besar.
Zambry recently announced that the Perak BN will have a supplementary manifesto in addition to the national BN manifesto for GE13. He said the manifesto would be continuation of BN programmes started in 2009 and that it would be people-centric, "based on the rakyat's responses to the state government".
According to state DAP vice-chairman A Sivanesan, who won the Sungkai state seat in 2008, urgent issues the voters are engrossed with include unemployment and lack of opportunities provided to locals, especially when it comes to land.
"The younger generations today are migrating out of Perak and to the Klang Valley because there are no opportunities for them, and so the unemployment numbers are not solved," he said.
"There is also an issue with our infrastructure. There is one village called Kampung Sabah Jaya made up of around 200 people who moved from Teluk Intan. This village, to this day, has no drinking water.
"Issues like these have been here for almost 50 years, and still nothing has been done by the present government," he claims.
Parti Sosialis Malaysia's (PSM) Dr. Michael Jeyakumar Devaraj, who won the Sungai Siput parliamentary seat in 2008, says there needs political will to see land being allocated or given to locals in Perak.
"We need a state government that prioritises proper land distribution to Perakians who have been working and toiling on the lands for so many years," he said. "Instead of giving it to the locals, the present state government gives it to foreign and local corporations or even the state development arm, which is why we see so many luxury homes being built but no real issues being addressed.
"I believe a Pakatan Rakyat-led government will be easier to work with when addressing these issues. However, we have to look at the macro picture: if Pakatan wins the state but Putrajaya remains under BN rule, there will be no funds channelled to us and we'll face many obstacles. It's much easier when federal and state governments are aligned so that only one party is accountable."
Ironically, the issues raised by the opposition are exactly what BN has promised the rakyat, namely economic growth, job opportunities for locals, improvement in infrastructure and increased focus on education.
History has shown Perak to be a commerce-focused state free from polarised political sentiments, but events since the 2008 election may indicate the reshuffling of priorities. Only time will tell how Perakians will vote for the future of their state.-theSun daily
