‘Adik Anwar’ curi duit rakyat miskin...


Ya, sewaktu awal zaman Reformasi 1998 dahulu saya juga turut tertipu. Nampak muka sama sebiji. Imej janggut sejemput dan berkaca mata. Selepas sahaja Anwar Ibrahim dilengser daripada jawatan nombor dua negara dan hilang daripada pandangan umum; orang ini dibual-bualkan sebagai ‘bayang-bayang’ Anwar.

Bekas Presiden Majlis Belia Malaysia di saat waktu puncak kerjaya politik Anwar Ibrahim ini malah pernah menjadi Setiausaha Politik Kepada Perdana Menteri di saat Abdullah Ahmad Badawi mewarisi jawatan itu daripada Mahathir Mohamad.

Apabila Pak Lah mewariskan takhta Putrajaya kepada Najib Razak, ‘kembar’ Anwar Ibrahim ini berkesudahan sebagai Setiausaha Politik kepada Menteri Pembangunan Masyarakat dan Hal Ehwal Wanita, yang kini sudah tidak lagi jadi menteri akibat skandal belaan lembu.

Bekas seorang wakil rakyat itu juga menerima anugerah Tokoh Jasa Belia Lelaki.

Tokoh itu Jumaat lalu diheret Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) disyaki menyalahguna dana kerajaan melalui program 1AZAM.

Utusan Malaysia, lidah rasmi United Malays National Organisation itu; begitu gigih sekali menyorok identiti tokoh terbabit. Namanya tidak disiarkan, gambarnya juga tidak didedahkan. Hatta laporan bahawa beliau ditahan Jumaat lalu pun hanya disiarkan pada Rabu.

Cuba kalau yang disiasat dan didakwa itu bukan orang United Malays National Organisation.

Untuk anda yang tak baca Utusan Malaysia, mari sini saya kongsikan laporan akhbar itu tentang si tertuduh.

Utusan melaporkan bahawa ‘seorang bekas setiausaha politik’ (tanpa menyebut setiausaha siapa atau daripada parti politik mana) ‘dibebaskan’ (meski gambarnya menunjukkan tangan si tertuduh masih digari) selepas ditahan selama lima hari.

Perenggan kedua laporan akhbar UMNO itu kemudian memberitahu bahawa si tertuduh bergelar Datuk sudah ditahan sejak Jumaat (hari ini Rabu) bagi ‘membantu siasatan’ (ini pelik kerana dia dituduh, bukannya dia saksi) berhubung penyelewengan sebuah program kerajaan bagi membantu golongan berpendapatan rendah.


Tidak disebut di situ kalimat 1AZAM.

Utusan kemudian menambah bahawa si tertuduh dibebaskan selepas membayar cagaran RM10,000 daripada jumlah jaminan keseluruhan sebanyak RM100,000 yang dikenakan mahkamah terhadapnya.

Paling menarik, Utusan memberitahu bahawa SEPULUH kenderaan milik si tertuduh dan kawan yang bersekongkol dengannya telah disita; antaranya Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, Camry dan Volkswagen Golf GTI. Tidak dilapor pula berapa kenderaan semuanya.




Apa itu program 1AZAM?

Laman web rasmi kementerian memberitahu bahawa ‘1AZAM menyediakan peluang menjana pendapatan kepada rakyat berpendapatan rendah. Jangkaan pendapatan antara RM760 hingga RM2,300 sebulan.’

Gaji anda berapa?

Ia memberitahu lagi bahawa ‘Projek 1AZAM diperkenalkan bagi menyediakan peluang pekerjaan kepada golongan rakyat Malaysia miskin tegar dan miskin menambah pendapatan sehingga melebihi had garis kemiskinan yang ditetapkan iaitu RM760 sebulan bagi miskin dan di bawah RM2,300 sebulan bagi golongan berpendapatan rendah.’

Utusan Malaysia tidak perlu beritahu siapa gerangan setpol menteri yang dituduh menyonglap duit rakyat miskin untuk beli kereta mewah. Menterinya juga dituduh cilok duit pinjaman kerajaan untuk bela lembu tapi akhirnya beli kondominium dan kereta mewah, serta buka restoran untuk menjana ekonomi Bumiputera yang rajin seperti keluarganya.

Rakyat ada internet dan boleh buat carian Google untuk tahu siapa tuan punya wajah yang dikaburkan Utusan Malaysia.

Google sahaja sudah boleh tahu siapa gerangan manusia yang terima anugerah Tokoh Jasa Belia ini. Tak susah.

Yang susah ialah untuk Utusan Malaysia melaporkan kebenaran yang menikam tuannya si United Malays National Organisation. – Roketkini.com



 Loads of questions about Chin Peng's ashes...

The police have been asked how it will ensure that the ashes of former Communist Party of Malaya's (CPM) secretary-general Chin Peng, who died in Bangkok on Monday, does not cross the porous Malaysian borders.

Lawyer Baljit Singh, a Penang Gerakan leader, has taken a different path from his colleagues in the BN to question the authorities on how the police were monitoring the situation, other than stepping up security at all borders and entry points into the country.

NONE"Are we going to check every Tom, Dick and Harry who comes in - either by land, sea or air, from Bangkok?" Baljit (right), the former state Gerakan legal and human rights bureau chief, asked.

"And if we do have a suspect, someone who happens to be found with ashes, how are we going to prove they actually belong to Chin Peng?" Baljit asked.

"If we manage to prove it is Chin Peng's ashes, although I wonder how it is going to be done, will Malaysia be the first country to repatriate someone's ashes?.

"If we did that, we would indeed be the laughing stock of the whole world," Baljit told Malaysiakini yesterday.

Chin Peng, born Ong Boon Hua in 1924, was pronounced dead at 6.20am in a hospital in Bangkok, on Sept 16, Malaysia's 50th anniversary day.

It is learnt that the ex-guerilla, who lived in exile in Thailand since the 1960s, wanted to be buried in his hometown, Sitiawan, Perak.

His wishes are not to be fulfilled as several ministers, including Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, maintain that Chin Peng is a terrorist and traitor to the country and have rejected the possibility of bringing his ashes back to Malaysia.

What about other traitors roaming the country?

"If Chin Peng, who is considered a traitor cannot be buried in his homeland, what about other traitors who are still roaming in the country now?" Baljit asked.

He explained that traitors to the country include those involved in corruption, which is bleeding the country dry.

Baljit urged Malaysians on the whole to forgive but not to forget the historical involvement of the CPM in the country's fight for independence from the colonials - the Japanese (1942-45) and British, which ended with Merdeka on Aug 31, 1957.



He said the outrage from certain quarters whose families and loved ones were sacrificed during the war with the communists is understandable.

"But after 50 years, it is time to move on, to move forward, forgive but don't forget," he said.

The government too had its duty to honour the 1989 Peace Accord that had been signed by the Malaysian and Thai governments with the CPM in Haadyai that year.

Top leadership barred from returning


The agreement, among others, specifies that the CPM and Malaysian government would cease fire, while members of the party would be allowed to return to the country.

However, only 300-odd of the CPM's lower rank soldiers and their families were allowed home but the top party leadership was barred from doing so.

Many chose to follow their CPM leaders, who later resided in a village in Southern Thailand, sponsored by the Thai government. The village is located an hour's drive from Narathiwat.

"We must honour the agreement or else we do not look good as the party that has reneged on its promises," Baljit said.



He also reminded the authorities about the Japanese Occupation of Malaya from 1942 to 1945, during which many people were killed, and which still haunted some who experienced the brutal torture inflicted by the Imperial soldiers.

"The atrocities done by the CPM are nothing compared with the torture and loss of lives inflicted by the Japanese soldiers during their four years in Malaya," Baljit said.

"Yet, we forgave them and looked East, towards their policies. We should do the same with CPM," he suggested.

Baljit also reminded the Malaysian government about the 1965 Indonesian Confrontation, during which Jakarta threatened to invade Malaysia, which had just formed a federation in 1963, together with the Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore.

"Yet we forgave them and allowed the Indonesians to come into the country to live and work, legal or illegally," Baljit added.-malaysiakini 



How stupid can he be?...
