Pasai apa pesawat gomen (9M-NAA) tak mendarat terus di KLIA tetapi di BANGKOK...

Sapa guna jet gomen ketika Najib meredah banjir...

Kepulangan Najib Razak secara tergesa-gesa daripada Hawaii setelah berita dan gambarnya bermain golf dengan Barack Obama yang kemudian menjadi kritikan ramai, di ketika banjir kian melanda, sama-sekali tidak menjadikan imejnya di mata rakyat bertambah baik.

Walaupun kepulangannya terus ke Kota Bharu untuk meninjau suasana banjir dan kemudian diikuti dengan pengumuman bantuan RM500 juta serta kesediaan meluangkan lebih banyak masa ke negeri-negeri yang ditimpa musibah agak disambut baik, terdedahnya banyak perkara di sebalik itu menjadikan beliau terus menjadi kecaman ramai.

Perkara yang paling menjadi perbualan ialah mengenai kepulangannya bersendirian ke tanahair sedangkan beliau dikatakan pergi bercuti ke Hawaii bersama isteri dan lain-lain ahli keluarganya.

Ramai yang bertanya di mana Rosmah Mansor yang sebelum ini pernah menyatakan isteri-isteri pemimpin haruslah berkorban dan meluangkan banyak masa membantu suami masing-masing?

Najib kemudian dilaporkan menaiki  pesawat komersial daripada Hawaii ke Hong Kong, manakala daripada Hong Kong ke Kota Bharu pula, beliau dijemput oleh jet khas milik TUDM.

Keadaan ini bukan saja melibatkan kos penerbangan yang jadi berganda, tetapi segera menimbulkan persoalan, kenapakah pesawat khas yang membawanya ke Hawaii itu ditinggalkan di AS dan Najib sendiri menjadi begitu "budiman" sanggup menaiki pesawat komersial ke Hong Kong?

Kenapakah jet khas untuk Perdana Menteri itu ditinggalkan dan siapakah pula yang menggunakannya di AS itu?

Walaupun pejabat Perdana Menteri kemudian ada menjelaskan bahawa pesawat khas itu ditinggalkan di AS kerana mengalami masalah teknikal dan bukannya digunakan oleh mana-mana ahli keluarga Najib, apa yang didedahkan di alam maya kemudian lebih mengejutkan.

Sesiapa yang mempunyai capaian internet dan melayari FlightRadar24 dan kemudian menaip 9M-NAA iaitu nombor pendaftaran pesawat khas yang membawa Najib ke Hawaii untuk bercuti sebelum ini, pasti mendapati bahawa jet itu sebenarnya tidak duduk diam di AS, sebaliknya banyak bergentayangan di udara.

Daripada Hawaii, ia didapati bergerak ke Indianapolis, dari sana pula bergerak sebanyak dua kali ke Los Angelas, kemudian ke New York, London dan pagi tadi dikesan di Dubai. Terbaru pula, FlighhtRadar24 mengesan pesawat itu berada di Bangkok dan dipercayai dalam perjalanan pulang ke Kuala Lumpur.

Timbul persoalan, siapakah yang sedang  meriah menggunakan jet itu sedangkan Najib sedang berada di dalam negara?

Jika benar penjelasan Pejabat Perdana Menteri bahawa pesawat itu mengalami masalah teknikal, sudah tentulah selepas ia dibaiki,  ia terus dibawa balik ke Malaysia dan bukannya singgah di Indianapolis, Los Angelas, New York, London dan Dubai?


Sehingga tiada penjelasan daripada mulut Najib sendiri mengenai pesawat itu, ia bagaikan membunuh semua pengorbanan Perdana Menteri sanggup pulang segera ke tanahair, meluangkan banyak masa dengan mangsa banjir dan memberikan peruntukan sebanyak RM500 juta.

Bahana daripada penggunaan jet ini lebih besar dan menjadikan kerja keras serta pengorbanan Najib sia-sia saja.

Selain itu, kunjungan Najib ke beberapa negeri meninjau keadaan banjir turut diselebungi pelbagai adegan yang menyebabkan imej dan prestasinya terus dipertikaikan.

Di Perak, melalui rakaman video yang tersebar luas di media sosial, Najib didapati meminta jurugambar merakam gambarnya bersama pemimpin lain, termasuk Zambry Abdul Kadir, di tahap ke dalaman sehingga paras paha untuk siaran media.

Ia menunjukkan seolah-olah Najib mahu memperlihatkan beliau sedang berada di paras air yang dalam secara natural dengan keprihatinan yang luar biasa, sedangkan ia sebenarnya rakaman yang diminta-minta atau lakonan saja.

Kemudian daripada itu, gambar dua orang lelaki sedang membukakan kasutnya turut menjadi viral dan kecaman ramai dan dikaitkan dengan kedudukannya sebagai pemimpin bangsawan.

Di Kelantan pula, ketika beliau sedang menggaul makanan di dalam kawah yang sedang dimasak untuk mangsa-mangsa banjir, turut didapati tiada api dibawahnya dan mungkin makanan itu sudah pun siap dimasak ketika itu.

Sekali lagi Najib didapati seperti sedang berlakon rupanya.

Setelah dikecam kerana pergi bercuti ke Hawaii ketika banjir mula melanda dan kemudian pulang tergesa-gesa setelah gambarnya bermain golf tersebar luas, Najib tentulah mengharapkan kepulangannya bukan saja menunjukkan jiwa pemimpinnya yang sejati tetapi juga untuk memulihkan imejnya yang menjadi kecaman ramai itu.

Namun, malangnya isu jet yang terus menjadi bualan ramai dan beberapa insiden  "lakonan" yang dilakukannya ketika banjir, menjadikan Najib sebenarnya makin lemas dan tenggelam dalam mempertahankan karier dan masa depannya walaupun banjir kian surut di seluruh negara.

Hari-hari yang mendatang dan sehingga pilihanraya akan datang, kekal menjadi detik-detik yang memeritkan bagi Najib.- shahbudin husin

Where’s Rosmah’s sacrifice...

A week after Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak cut short his holiday to attend to the flood crisis, questions still persist about his wife’s whereabouts.

Following up on his article about the gossip that Rosmah Mansor is still on holiday, popular blogger Shahbudin Husin reminds her of the advice she once gave to the wives of the country’s leaders — that they should sacrifice their own interests to support their husbands in fulfilling the latter’s responsibilites.

In his latest blog entry, Shahbudin appears to speculate that Rosmah may be globe trotting with the official government jet that took Najib and his family to the United States for their holiday.

He disputes a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office that the jet was left in the US because it developed technical problems.

“Anyone with Internet access can log on to FlightRadar24.com and type in the flight number 9M-NAA and see that the official government jet is not sitting still in the US, but is roaming around in the air,” he writes.

He says the plane flew from Hawaii to Indianapolis before flying twice to Los Angeles, then to New York on New Year’s Eve before flying to London and then Dubai this morning.
“It raises the question who is happily using the jet while Najib is in the country,” he says.

“If the explanation of the PMO’s office were true and the plane had technical problems, wouldn’t it fly back to Malaysia immediately after repairs?”

Shahbudin pointed out that Najib has not said a word regarding the issue of the plane. “Because of the use of the jet, all of Najib’s hard work and sacrifice for the flood victims are in vain.”

He also notes that Najib’s other state visits to review the flood situation have been littered with incidents that have further raised criticism.

“In Perak, through a video on social media, Najib was seen asking several photographers to take pictures of him with other leaders, including Zambry Abdul Kadir, in thigh deep waters to show to the media,” he says, explaining that this was his way of faking spontaneity.- fmt

Najib pulang, jet masih keliling dunia

VIP jet lands in Bangkok after trip around the world...

After two weeks, the government VIP jet bearing the registration number 9M-NAA has made a trip around the world and landed in Bangkok this afternoon amid posers on the whereabouts of Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's wife, Rosmah Mansor.

Since Najib is already back in Malaysia to deal with the recent floods, it is unclear who is using the aircraft or for what purpose.

According to the flight tracking website Flightradar24, the Airbus 319 jet left its base in Subang on Dec 20 and flew to Honolulu, Hawaii after a brief stop in Osaka, Japan.

There, Najib had played golf with US President Barack Obama, but had to cut his holiday short amid criticism for his absence as the flood situation worsened.

He later revealed to the media that while his family was sad to see him leave, he had told them that the suffering of flood victims was greater.

He later revealed to the media that while his family was sad to see him leave, he had told them that the suffering of flood victims was greater.

He also defended the tee-off with Obama, saying that it is ‘golf diplomacy’ and was also practiced by his predecessors, including his father and former prime minister Abdul Razak Hussein.

The floods are reportedly the worst in recent decades, especially in the East Coast, with 21 dead and over 200,000 displaced at its peak.

Najib had reached Kota Bharu on the afternoon of Dec 27 using a different aircraft. He is believed to have been picked up from Hong Kong by another Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) VIP jet.

From Honolulu to Hong Kong?

It is unclear how Najib reached Hong Kong from Honolulu, but Flightradar24’s records show that the Boeing 737 business jet (BBJ) arrived in Kota Bharu from there at the same time Najib was reported to have arrived.

At that time, the government jet that took Najib to Honolulu was already in Indianapolis, US, having arrived there on Dec 26 after a brief stop at Los Angeles.

It remained in Indianapolis for six days until Dec 31, where it took off for Los Angeles, then New York, London, Dubai and finally Bangkok – all with brief stops at each airport for up to several hours until it reached Bangkok.

It touched-down at Bangkok’s Don Mueang International Airport at 2.11pm today after a journey of some 41,900 kilometres, and is still there as of the time of writing.

Indianapolis is also the base for the aircraft cabin design, maintenance, and refurbishing arm of the aviation company Comlux Aviation, which specialises in chartering and refurbishing VIP aircraft.

Comlux has previously done refurbishing work on 9M-NAA, and has a six-year contract from 2013 to perform maintenance work on the aircraft. However, it is not clear if this is the reason for its stop in Indianapolis.

Malaysiakini has contacted the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and Comlux about the aircraft earlier today, but has yet to receive a response.



Aircrafts for VVIP use, not just PM

The aircraft is among a few VIP jets registered to the Royal Malaysian Air Force.

In a statement last year, the PMO had said that there are four VIP jets: A Bombardier Global Express, a Dassault Falcon 900, and the aforementioned Boeing and Airbus jets.

A fifth aircraft, a Fokker F28-1000, has been decommissioned in Aug 2012, it added.

It added that the aircrafts were not exclusively for Najib’s use, but are also for the Agong, sultans, yang di-pertuas negeri, ministers, deputy ministers, foreign guests to the federal government, senior government officials and VIPs.

It said this helps these individuals move about safely and aids their busy schedule.

Meanwhile, Semambu assemblyperson Lee Chean Chung (left) appealed to members of the public to come forward if they had sighted any VIPs at the cities that 9M-NAA stopped over.

He also urged the prime minister to explain the purpose of the trip.

“The aircraft was flying back and forth between Los Angeles and New York. Is this for a holiday or to strengthen relations between Malaysia and the US? Since the aircraft was originally carrying Najib to Hawaii to celebrate Christmas with Obama, Najib must clarify what transpired,” he said in a statement today.

He added that it would be an abuse of public resources if Najib had allowed his relatives or close confidants to use the aircraft for personal purposes. - mk
