Sidang Dewan macam ‘pasar borong’ kata Ahmad Maslan...
Timbalan Menteri Kewangan, Datuk Ahmad Maslan berharap apa yang berlaku dalam sesi Dewan Rakyat semalam tidak berulang di masa depan apabila penyokong kerajaan dan pembangkang bergaduh untuk tempoh satu jam akibat tidak berpuas hati dengan sesuatu isu.
“Semua anggota Parlimen mesti mengikut peraturan mesyuarat…kejadian semalam seperti mengoyakkan kertas usul dan menjerit-jerit tidak sepatutnya berlaku.
Ahmad berkata apa yang berlaku semalam seumpama sebuah “pasar borong” yang hanya membuang masa sahaja.-fmt
En.Maslan ooi,
Macam mana tak jadi seperti 'pasar borong' apabila hampa yang memerintah menggunakan undang2 rimba dan tak ikut SOP dewan ketika meluluskan sesuatu usul.
Tambah2 lagi pihak hampa pakai redah saja macam pengawai2 DBKL muncul awal pagi untuk merobohkan kuil di Jalan P.Ramlee baru2 ini.
Kalaulah hampa dah berlagak macam samseng,hang ingat depa di sebelah sana nak dok diam kah? Hang pikiaq mai Che Lan ooi...
Trained in the Land of The Spycatcher...
It’s a black day for our parliament. Yesterday, our colleague the MP for Padang Serai( corrected- I always state Bagan) was suspended for 6 months. Presently there is a growing agitation for parliament to censure Nurulizzah, MP for Lembah Pantai.
Our public’s attention is diverted by side issues strategically timed to be aired by UMNO warlords. The nation ought to be engrossed over the 2014 Budget as it explains how the government wants to use the RM264-billion outlay. How it’s going to handle almost RM700 billion public debt (including contingent liabilities and guarantees to GLCs). We must not lose sight of the BN salivating over the prospects of having more money through GST. A second our attention is diverted, their thieving hands are on the dough.
Instead, UMNO warlords are calling for Nurulizzah’s censure because she exposed that our PDRM stationed 30 special branch officers in London. The business of government lies within the purview of parliament.
As a Member of Parliament, Nurul Izzah has the right to question the business of government- in this case, the placement of 30 SB officers in London. In response, the government ought to explain the reason and purpose for stationing the intelligence officers there; is it for the purpose of learning new skills in counter intelligence, are they there for reason of compassionate leave for a much deserved R&R after spying diligently over opposition MPs or what?
Nurul Izzah speaks in her capacity as MP and her freedom to speak should be left unfettered unless parliament says otherwise. Other busybodies such as the UMNO warlords have no business to interfere in any MP discharging his or her duties. Parliament, after all is the legislative body in the country.
Maybe Shadihan Kassim, the affable but bungling fool of an MP has not read the written answers given to MPs. And other public documents. He thinks parliamentary sessions are political ceramahs where you can bullshit your way out. Well, he has found out that it’s not easy to fool 89 inquisitive opposition minds.
The story about the placement of 30 intelligence officers is contained in these documents which are public in nature. MP Nurul Izzah is asking the purpose of stationing the officers there and may we add, the cost of putting them up there. It is borne by taxpayer’s money and any money spent ought to be questioned by parliament. Maybe it’s all right to BN parliamentarians because as Shahidan said, once the money is approved, the government can use it as it pleases. This is the quality of a BN minister.
Our special branch officers presently number more than 8000 personnel and are mainly used to spy on opposition politicians. When I hold meet- the-people sessions in Raub (not campaigning at all) a method I use to hear people out and offering solutions to their myriad of problems, a number of SB officers will be on hand.
I welcome them because I am there to help the people and I want them to report to UMNO what their reps are not doing what they should be doing. It would be a waste of our resources if any of these field officers were trained in UK but find themselves assigned to cover a nondescript politician such as I. No need to be trained in UK to cover Raub.- Mohd.Ariff Sabri bin Hj. Abdul Aziz@sakmongkol.blogspot
'Sohaimi's confession must prompt EC response'...
The Coalition for Free and Fair Elections (Bersih) said today that a BN candidates' confession that vote-buying goes on during elections in the country must be fully investigated by the Election Commission (EC).
The EC must respond as it's capability to run free and fair elections is being challenged, said Bersih chairperson Ambiga Sreenevasan.
BN's Sungai Limau candidate Ahmad Sohaimi Lazim said yesterday that government arms such as Federal Agricultural and Marketing Authority (Fama) went in to distribute fruits and chicks to voters ahead of polls.
"At least he is honest about what took place...he has admitted to vote buying," Ambiga (left) said when contacted by Malaysiakini. "The EC should now answer for it...it is vote-buying."
Ahmad Sohaimi was speaking at a seminar organised by the University of Malaya Centre of Democracy and Election (Umcedel), doing a post-mortem of the Nov 4 polls for the Sungai Limau state assembly seat. The strategy, however ,failed to pay off for BN.
He had lost to PAS' Mohd Azam Samat by 1,084 votes. Sohaimi said PAS had also used the same strategy when it was in government and alleged that there were other irregularities during the by-election.
Bersih has been fighting for clean and fair elections in Malaysia since 2007. After the GE13 which was riddled with complains of irregularity, Bersih had carried out a People's Tribunal in September, where it was revealed that as much as half of the 51 constituencies that was studied saw incidences of bribery.
"Everyone knows that this takes place, including the EC... It is certainly one of the issues the EC should look into but has not," said Ambiga.
She added that it was extra worrying that even Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak had denied over international TV that there was no basis to believe that vote-buying has undermined Malaysia's democracy. Bersih came under fire for saying otherwise.
Here is one candidate who has admitted to it, Ambiga said, adding that "we hope that this case will not be just swept under the carpet."
Sohaimi (right) told the seminar that election campaign could not be run on ideas alone as voters were simply asking for goodies in return for their support.
Here is one candidate who has admitted to it, Ambiga said, adding that "we hope that this case will not be just swept under the carpet."
This showed that the culture of vote-buying had been embedded among some voters, he added.
Sohaimi said this does not augur well for the future of democracy in Malaysia if it is not urgently uprooted.
"It is very worrying...The EC has an enforcement team ...why didn't they do something about it there and then?" Ambiga asked.-malaysiakini
Undi saya dapat, tak sebanyak anak ayam - calon Umno di Sg Limau
Kelmarin depa padam...
Hari ini di merata tempat...
