Pendaftaran : PH nak bawa ROS ke mahkamah...

Pakatan Harapan (HARAPAN) mempertimbang untuk membawa Jabatan Pendaftar Pertubuhan (ROS) ke mahkamah ekoran kegagalan agensi terbabit untuk memberi respon tentang pendaftaran gabungan pembangkang itu.

Dalam respon kepada jawapan Kementerian Dalam Negeri mengenai pendaftaran terbabit, Ahli Parlimen Puchong, Gobind Singh Deo menegaskan bahawa pihak ROS tidak boleh terus membisu.

“Sudah ada Pendaftar Pertubuhan yang baharu, Puan Surayati Ibrahim. Beliau sepatutnya membalas surat-surat kami dan memberitahu perkembangan terkini pendaftaran tersebut,” tegasnya dalam kenyataan.

“Kita tidak mahu melihat apa yang terjadi dalam kes DAP berulang kembali.

“Empat tahun baru ROS beri respon. ROS mesti menjawab notis kami. Jika tidak, mungkin kami perlu pertimbangkan mengambil langkah undang-undang untuk memaksa mereka memberi respon,” katanya yang juga Pengerusi Biro Guaman HARAPAN.

HARAPAN telah mengemukakan permohonan kepada pihak ROS pada 28 Julai lalu, disusuli surat memohon untuk berbincang pengenai pendaftaran tersebut pada 21 Ogos.

25 Oktober lalu, HARAPAN memberi notis kepada ROS supaya memberi maklumbalas dalam tempoh 14 hari berkenaan pendaftaran gabungan empat parti DAP, PKR, Amanah dan PPBM.

14 Julai lalu, HARAPAN mengumumkan struktur kepimpinan utamanya yang dipengerusikan Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, selain logo gabungan terbabit. Ia dilihat sebagai langkah proaktif dan mendapat respon positif pelbagai peringkat. – Roketkini.com

My comments : The above is going around. The numbers add up to RM10,200. This is just some satire about the buta money being dished out by moron.  But it is not too far from the reality of the buta money being dished out.

This morning I had breakfast with a friend who has run a successful business. Lives in a bungalow. Has multiple cars in the garage (large family). Owns a few other houses, apartments and owns a few shoplots. Also owns land in his home state. Self made. Honest businessman.

But his advice to me this morning:  "Just shut down your business Syed. Stay at home and spend your time at home. There is no point doing business anymore."

My friend's business (M and E, commercial coolers installation etc) has been hit by the GST - in two painful ways.

First his business has slowed down. He has reduced his staffing by almost 50%.   He says there is "no more work".

Secondly the Customs guys are bullying him in the GST payments. To be careful to file his GST payments accurately my friend pays an accountant to prepare the GST submissions. That costs him money. Despite doing this, the Customs keeps finding fault with his submissions and often they have to be resubmitted. If you are late you face compounds, fines and jail sentences. 

He was telling me all this after I went to the Metrology office nearby (the weighing machine monopoly created by the gomen) to have my electronic weighing machine calibrated.  

The Metrology guys are also trying to put you out of business. They keep changing the rules. This year they say that the owners who bring in the weighing machines for calibration cannot plug in and set up the machines  (inside their calibration room).  Only they can handle the machines. 

This reminds me of the old tricks the gomen guys used to play before the weighing machine calibration was privatised to Metrology. They used to 'tamper' the weighing machines. So it will not read carefully. Then they will tell you to call the repairman. Those guys will charge you over RM200. I will be writing more about this later.

Where are the 'anti-monopoly act' dunggus?  I have been saying for the past two years (since the GST) that the economy is shutting down.

Well, it is confirmed that 5 GIANT HYPERMARTS have shut down now. Here is the news:

-FIVE Giant supermarkets will shut Nov 5
-retail industry struggle with sluggish sales
-further weakening as consumers tighten belts
-hypermart worse-than-expected decline 4.8% 1st qtr '17
-Malaysia Retailers Association said further drop in sales 2.5% in 3rd qtr 
-Malay Business Council revealed GST led to closure of Malay retail biz
-Giant supermarkets opened 73 years ago – themalaysianinsight

Folks, the worst is coming in 2018.  

Each Giant store should have about 200 workers (average).  So that means about 1000 people are out of work. It does not matter if 60% of them are Myanmars or Nepalis. The Malaysian economy has certainly ground to a halt at FIVE GIANT HYPERMARTS. 1000 workers x RM1500 average salary =  RM1.5 million per month lost from the economy. (Or RM18 million per year). RM18 million worth of direct purchasing power or consumption is  gone.

Then there will be no more three tonne trucks delivering goods to the 5 GIANT hypermarts. Assuming 10 trucks deliver goods each day that adds up to 50 trucks per day or 1500 trips per month that has gone out of business. Truck drivers, logistics companies will go out of business.

What about the suppliers to Giant?  Some of them will surely make losses also because certainly Giant is a major buyer of their products.

What about the other tenants at those places where Giant is closing down? The chicken rice shop, the KFC, McDonalds, the eyewear shop (kedai cermin mata) will all be affected. They will all also close down at the same premises or suffer much reduced sales.

The economy is grinding to a halt. It is not just retail business. As I said my businessman friend whom I have mentioned is in the cooler business, mostly commercial. Sales are very poor.

 It is getting worse. We are not seeing a turnaround situation. Even the moron gomen says now the economy is slowing down. I doubt their economic growth figures.

A friend in the know tells me that a staffer at the Bank Club of Doom has been given stacks of data to extract facts and numbers to justify that the 2020 thing is on target. A report to that effect will be published soon.

How many of you believe the gomen's inflation figures? 3+ % inflation rate?? They must be joking. Arent there any half intelligent half honest Civil Servants in the gomen service anymore? - ostb

Can Najib’s Budget win Selangor for BN

"Datuk Seri" dari Indonesia

Nak sogok RELA pula

Yang pasti UMNO jadi talibarut Komunis.

cheers.

Bedai Shafie bedai...lu tunggu apa lagi?

Dalam bahasa mudahnya, Presiden Parti Warisan Sabah Shafie Apdal yang juga bekas menteri kabinet dikaitkan dengan penyelewengan sehingga RM1.5 bilion dana persekutuan yang sepatutnya disalurkan melalui Kementerian Kemajuan Luar Bandar dan Wilayah yang pernah beliau terajui.

Bukan hanya dia, tetapi keluarga dan penyokongnya. Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) kini menyiasat 14 buah syarikat di Sabah yang dikaitkan dengan dakwaan penyelewengan RM48 juta dana yang diperuntukkan untuk pembangunan luar bandar itu. Ini merupakan sebahagian daripada keseluruhan penyiasatan kes yang sama.

Selepas dibebaskan daripada tahanan reman lapan hari, sebagai reaksinya, Shafie berkata dia akan mendedahkan perihal pemimpin Sabah yang didakwanya mengaut untuk daripada pelbagai projek terutamanya musuh ketat politiknya, Ketua Menteri Sabah, Musa Aman.

Sepatutnya, dia jangan berhenti setakat itu sahaja. Jangan hanya di Sabah, dedahkan juga perihal seluruh Malaysia.

Meminjam kata-kata Presiden Amerika Syarikat, Donald J. Trump, Shafie sepatutnya mengeringkan paya.

Namakan saja bekas rakan-rakan yang menyeleweng duit pembayar cukai masuk ke poket sendiri. Namakanlah semua yang berminat jadi kleptokrat di semua kementerian yang pernah beliau duduki.

Ini akan jadi petunjuk paling kukuh bahawa dia bersedia untuk memisahkan dirinya daripada masa lalu. Jangan jadi macam orang lain yang mendakwa ada berkotak-kotak bukti tetapi tidak pernah pula menunjukkan apa-apa. Shafie sebaliknya hendaklah berpegang pada kata-katanya dan dedahkan saja segala-galanya.

Itulah juga yang dia katakan dalam satu wawancara dengan The Malaysian Insight seminggu sebelum dia ditangkap baru-baru ini.

“Saya inner circle Najib. Saya tahu banyak benda,” kata Shafie, merujuk kepada kawan baiknya, Perdana Menteri dan Presiden Umno Najib Razak.

Dan semalam, ahli politik yang marah dan kecewa itu meluahkan rasa hatinya: “Orang Sabah tak kenal Najib. Saya bantu dia untuk menjayakan politik dia di Sabah ini.”

Shafie ada alasan untuk rasa terluka walaupun batu yang dibalingnya nanti akan menghancurkan rumah kacanya sendiri. Dia dilihat antara menteri yang mencapai prestasi baik apabila Unit Pengurusan Prestasi dan Perlaksanaan (Pemandu) membuat penilaian prestasi kementerian-kementerian setiap tahun.

Shafie kesal kerana selama ini tidak ada rungutan semasa dia dalam Kabinet tetapi sekarang ada siasatan dan dakwaan yang seluas-luasnya.

Semua itu menunjukkan satu perkara tentang Umno. Semuanya elok dan baik-baik saja kalau menyokong tetapi semuanya buruk belaka apabila sudah tidak lagi bersama atau tersingkir. Gaya politik “sokong atau tidak sokong” ini sudah ada lama sejak zaman Dr Mahathir Mohamad dalam Umno dan masih lagi ada sampai sekarang.

Cara ini mesti dihentikan. Shafie patut dedahkan apa yang dia tahu kerana dia sedang diserang dan belum tahu bila masanya tiba kalau dia menunggu untuk mendedahkannya di mahkamah.

Inilah masa yang terbaik untuk mendedahkan segala-galanya, menutup segala lubang yang membocorkan berjuta-juta duit rakyat.– themalaysianinsight

Go ahead and drain the swamp, Shafie...

What Budget 2018 doesn’t tell you...

Story kat SINI SINI dan SINI  

10 Chinese schools? Build them firstlah...

Najib son of Razak must be really desperate for pulling his trump card at this hour in order to fish for ethnic-Chinese votes. If his speech on Budget 2018, to be presented later today, is revealed to be too good to be true, then a snap election is very, very near. His latest drama – 10 new Chinese primary schools – is his biggest bait to the Chinese community.

We had said this before – the three biggest things that the Chinese hold very dearly to their hearts are education, economy and dignity. They can sacrifice economy for the sake of education. They can even sacrifice some dignity for the sake of education. But they certainly cannot sacrifice education, which is of better quality and part of their identity.

Here’s the justification. The Malaysian Chinese, having been discriminated by UMNO-Malays since Independence in 1957, were willing to surrender 30% stake in business to ethnic-Malays. The Chinese were willing to work 100% their arse off so that the sleeping partner Malays could enjoy their 30% wealth without lifting a finger. It’s called the NEP (New Economic Policy).

After cutting 30% of their cake to be shared (or rather robbed) with the Malays to prevent them from running amok, a magical skill they are well known to possess, the Chinese have to lose some dignity so that their education can be safeguarded. How is that so? Well, every year without fail, most of 1,298 SJK (C) Chinese schools nationwide would unleash school kids on the streets begging for money.

True, Malaysia is the only country that allows Chinese-type schools to co-exist with National-type schools, in addition to Indian’s Tamil schools. But it’s also true that Malaysia is the only country where the Chinese-type schools are being held hostage – deliberately allocated a partial funding required to running the schools, despite the Chinese paying 90% of total income tax.

Because the SJK (C) Chinese schools do not have sufficient funding every year, parents would receive a donation card each to go out and source for money so that their schools could survive. And Prime Minister Najib Razak has to cheek to lecture the Chinese they should be grateful to the government when school children have to beg for money from the public come rain or shine.

Some lucky SJK (C) Chinese schools would be spared from the humiliation of asking for donations from uncles and aunties at “kopitiam (coffee shop)” if their schools have rich and influence “chairman”. That’s where the Malaysian Chinese philanthropists come into play. These lucky schools would normally have decent school facilities such as a field for sports.

But for schools such as SJK (C) Chung Kwok, one of Chinese top schools which happen to be the only school that runs Singapore education syllabus concurrently to further boost the quality of their students, they have to ask for permission from a nearby school to host their annual Sports Day. During normal days, the students are reduced to using basketball courts to do sports activities.

Here’s further proof that the country’s Chinese schools are being discriminated without the proper funding, despite the fact that such vernacular schools are enshrined in the constitution. Last year, China’s ambassador to Malaysia – Dr Huang Huikang – donated some money to eight SJKCs, obviously was disturbed with the discrimination in the country.

Although RM40,000 might be loose change to the lowest ranking minister within Najib’s battalion of corrupt officials, those cash from Ambassador Huang certainly made a huge difference to the 8 Chinese schools. The simple fact that Najib regime chose this hour to allow his pet – MCA political party – to announce the 10 new Chinese primary schools is nothing but an election gimmick.

It appears that Mr. Najib’s plan of working with PAS’ President Hadi Awang to use religion and race cards to unite Malay-Muslims and divide Chinese voters before the coming 14th general election have hit the wall. Their plan fails spectacularly when their sponsored preacher Zamihan Mat Zin was crushed by the Sultanate of Johor, follows by the Sultanate of Selangor.

That explains why MCA party, supposedly to protect the interest of ethnic-Chinese instead of enriching themselves but did the opposite instead, was given the silver bullet – the construction of 10 new Chinese schools – to rally (and hopeful to scam) the Chinese voters in favour of Mr. Najib’s coalition Barisan Nasional (National Front). 

After the announcement, now MCA can proudly go to every worm hole and justify why the Chinese should vote for them. Even if MCA could scam as little as 5% of Chinese votes to help Najib Razak, who is already in deep trouble with 1MDB scandal and high cost of living due to unpopular GST, it would greatly make a huge difference between the survivability and the death of Najib regime.

But here’s why the Chinese should not be ignorant after having been scammed by the equally corrupted MCA numerous times. Constructing schools isn’t as easy as buying a few chickens at wet market. It requires huge funds and years of construction. Therefore, until all the 10 new Chinese schools are fully built, properly equipped and 100% operational, such news should be taken with a pinch of salt.

After all, Najib is a proven serial liar. If he couldn’t even deliver his promise of PR1MA affordable housing to his fellow ethnic-Malay voters, how could he deliver his promise of 10 new schools to the ethnic-Chinese who happens to be pro-opposition? Okay, you want proof so here it is. Najib proudly declared a staggering RM1.6 billion to build 175,000 PR1MA housing units during last year’s 2017 Budget.

Amazingly, the same Mr. Najib had also boasted about building 80,000 units of such affordable houses with RM1.3 billion allocation a year earlier (2016 Budget). But with his budget presentation hours away, based on his administration admission (up until June 2017), only 8,475 units of PR1MA houses have been completed, while only 934 owners got their keys.

It was Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Shahidan Kassim who admitted in August this year that Najib administration has only managed to buildless than 2% of the 500,000 affordable houses under the PR1MA scheme that had been promised in 2013. While it’s easy to promise and even approve, it’s however another game altogether to deliver.

Heck, instead of being grateful to MCA and UMNO for the “plan” to build the 10 new Chinese primary schools, the Chinese voters should actually be grateful to nobody but themselves for doing the clever thing – voted for the opposition.Are the Chinese dumb enough to think the desperate Najib would agree to this new Chinese school project had the opposition is weak today?

No matter how MCA, and PM Najib Razak for that matter, twists and spins its latest stunt, it’s a shame that they couldn’t fix the problem of getting full funding for SJK (C) Chinese schools. Do you know that the Chinese school classes in Malaysia have been around since 1819, long before many of UMNO-Malays even established their roots in the country?

During former Mahathir’s era, the same Barisan Nasional coalition had its fun bullying and discriminating the Chinese schools. Back then, more than 60% of Chinese were behind the former premier. Now, Najib suddenly becomes a Santa Clause bearing gift – 10 new Chinese schools – but with more than 90% of Chinese behind the opposition. Go figure!!– financetwitter,mc

RM100 for meal at roadside stall, 

my hubby ate a mermaid?...

A diner at a roadside stall was outraged after he was a slapped with a bill for RM100 for two plates of rice with seafood. His wife posted photos of his meal and the receipt on social media on Oct 23.

"Is the price of the food at this shop really like this? Or did my husband eat a mermaid?," she tweeted.

She said it was her husband's first trip to Pahang and he stopped for lunch at a roadside stall. They ordered two plates of rice with freshwater prawns and squid. 

"Is the price of the food at this shop really like this? Or did my husband eat a mermaid?," she tweeted.

She said it was her husband's first trip to Pahang and he stopped for lunch at a roadside stall. They ordered two plates of rice with freshwater prawns and squid.

Portal Cari News contacted stall owner, Rohainee, who said she did not overcharge her customers.

"The giant freshwater prawns on one of the plates costs RM18 each, so two giant freshwater prawns add up to RM36. The giant freshwater prawns on the other plate are larger, so each costs RM23. Two for RM46," she said, adding that those are 'A grade' giant freshwater prawns.

She said 1kg of 'A grade' giant freshwater prawns costs RM80 and she sells them cooked at RM100. She added that some other eateries are charging customers RM120 for 1kg of giant freshwater prawns. - sundaily
