Dokumen RM 2 juta wang rakyat ‘derma’ PRU-13 BN...

Setiausaha Agung PKR, Rafizi Ramli hari ini mendedahkan beberapa baucar bayaran yang didakwanya mengandungi maklumat terperinci bagaimana BN mendapat manfaat daripada RM2 juta wang pembayar cukai untuk membiayai kempen pilihan raya umum ke-13.

Pendedahan itu susulan dakwaannya semalam bahawa Kementerian Kewangan pada 2013 meluluskan jumlah itu sebagai "geran derma" kepada sebuah persatuan kaum India yang mesra-BN.

"Ia adalah satu rahsia terbuka bahawa BN telah menggunakan dana awam untuk kempen sebelum ini.

"Tetapi ini kali pertama kami mempunyai bukti dokumentari kuat tentang bagaimana wang telah disalurkan daripada Kementerian Kewangan kepada pihak ketiga dan kemudian digunakan untuk membayar perbelanjaan pilihan raya BN," kata Rafizi pada sidang media di ibu pejabat PKR, hari ini.

Antara lain, Rafizi mendakwa, bayaran berkenaan telah dibuat oleh persatuan itu untuk pelbagai acara BN yang berlangsung antara 29 Mac 2013, dan 29 Mei 2013.

Pilihan raya umum ke-13 diadakan pada 5 Mei, 2013.

Sementara itu, dalam sidang media yang sama ahli parlimen Kapar G Manivannan berkata pihaknya akan membuat laporan polis terhadap Datuk Seri Najib Razak dan dua pemegang jawatan dalam persatuan itu esok.

Dalam laporan polis itu, Rafizi berkata: "Apabila menteri kewangan yang diberi kuasa ke atas dana awam yang akan dipindahkan kepada pihak ketiga tetapi kemudian digunakan bagi manfaat kepada mereka (kerajaan atau pegawai awam), itu pecah amanah."

Beliau juga menegaskan bahawa persatuan itu juga bertanggungjawab untuk memastikan semua dana yang diterima, dibelanjakan dan digunakan mengikut piagamnya.

Malaysiakini juga telah menghubungi Setiausaha BN Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor bagi mendapatkan komennya.- mk

Rafizi reveals documents on BN GE13 'donation'...

PKR secretary-general Rafizi Ramli revealed today several payment vouchers that he claimed detailed how the BN benefited from RM2 million in taxpayers' money to fund its 13th general election campaign.

This followed his allegation yesterday that the Finance Ministry had, in 2013, approved the amount as a "donation grant" to a BN-friendly Indian-based association.

"It is an open secret that BN had used public funds to campaign before.

"This is the first time we have strong documentary proof of how money was transferred from the Finance Ministry to a third party and re-directed to pay for BN’s election expenses," the Pandan MP claimed at a press conference at the PKR headquarters in Petaling Jaya.

Among others, Rafizi claimed, the payments were made by the association for various BN-linked events between March 29, 2013, and May 29, 2013.

MIC vs MAICCI

The 13th general election was held on May 5, 2013.

Kapar MP G Manivannan, who was also present at the press conference, said based on these documents, he would lodge a police report tomorrow on criminal breach of trust (CBT) against Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and two office-bearers of the association.

On the police report, Rafizi said: "When the minister of finance authorised public funds to be transferred to a third party but it eventually benefits you (the government or public officer), that is CBT." 

He also stressed that the association was equally responsible to ensure all funds received are spent and utilised according to its charter.

Najib guna duit rakyat untuk biayai PRU-13...

Rafizi Ramli hari ini mendakwa BN mendapat manfaat daripada RM2 juta wang pembayar cukai untuk membiayai kempen pilihan raya umum ke-13.

Bercakap pada sidang media di ibu pejabat PKR, Rafizi mendakwa bahawa Kementerian Kewangan pada 2013 meluluskan jumlah itu sebagai "geran derma" kepada sebuah persatuan kaum India yang mesra-BN.

"Sekarang kita mempunyai bukti bahawa sebahagian daripada kempen BN dibiayai menggunakan wang pembayar cukai.

"Kesan (kes ini) lebih besar kerana ia membabitkan RM2 juta dana awam," dakwanya.

Dakwaan itu, katanya, adalah berdasarkan surat daripada Jabatan Perbendaharaan bertarikh 23 April, 2013, kepada presiden persatuan berkenaan.

Rafizi mendedahkan kandungan surat itu pada sidang akhbarnya bersama-sama dengan minit mesyuarat persatuan itu yang bertarikh 11 Mei 2013, di mana dicatatkan bahawa presiden didakwa mengakui menerima derma RM2.5 juta untuk tujuan pilihan raya.

Ditanya mengenai percanggahan RM500 juta itu, Rafizi berkata, beliau hanya boleh membuat kesimpulan bahawa terdapat sumber lain yang turut menyalurkan dana kepada persatuan itu.

2 million people's fund used to fund BN in GE13...

PKR secretary-general Rafizi Ramli alleged today that the Barisan Nasional benefited from RM2 million in taxpayers' money to fund its 13th general election campaign.

Speaking at a press conference at the PKR headquarters in Petaling Jaya, Rafizi claimed that the Finance Ministry had in 2013 approved the amount as a "donation grant" to a BN-friendly Indian-based association.

“Now we have evidence that part of BN’s campaign was funded with money from taxpayers.

“(This case) has a much larger legal repercussion because the RM2 million comes from the people's funds,” he claimed.

This information, Rafizi added, was based on a letter from the Treasury Department, dated April 23, 2013, that was sent to the president of the association.

More to be revealed later this week

He revealed the contents of the letter at the press conference, along with minutes of the association’s meeting dated May 11, 2013, where it was stated that the president had allegedly admitted to obtaining a donation of RM2.5 million for election purposes.

Asked about the RM500,000 discrepancy in the amount, Rafizi said he could only infer that there were other sources of funding for the association.

He also claimed to have in his possession invoices that detailed how the RM2 million was spent to support the BN's GE13 campaign - which he said would be revealed at separate press conferences this week.

"I want to focus on public funds.

"We can ascertain so far that the figure (on the alleged invoices) matches the expenditures which we will reveal at a later date," Rafizi said.

Sirul's $17million blackmail not to bring down Najib...

Sirul Azhar Umar: $17 million blackmail from detainee in Sydney's Villawood detention centre...

A convicted murderer in Sydney's Villawood detention centre appears to have made videos defending Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak around the time he was attempting to blackmail Mr Najib's government.

Australian Border Force has told Fairfax Media that Sirul Azhar Umar made the videos before he was arrested and taken to Villawood in January last year.

Just days before his arrest, Sirul attempted to blackmail the Malaysian government for $17 million to keep quiet over the brutal murder of a glamorous Mongolian socialite in Kuala Lumpur in 2006.

"Greetings boss, I am in difficulty here, I need $2 million to guarantee my child. After that I want $15 million and I will not return to Malaysia, I will not bring down the PM," Sirul texted to a shadowy Malaysian middleman with links to high-level Malaysian officials.

The middleman, who has visited Sirul three times in Villawood, sent a reply back saying "they want to discuss".

Australian Federal Police have refused to comment on whether they are investigating the messages that were retrieved from Sirul's telephone during an investigation by al-Jazeera's 101 East program. 

An AFP spokesperson said the Malaysian government would have to formally agree before any investigation could proceed. Continue reading...

Orang UMNO lawat Sirul di Sydney, lapor akhbar...

Sirul Azhar Umar yang disabitkan bersalah kerana membunuh dan kini ditahan di pusat tahanan imigresen Australia, menerima lawatan bukan saja daripada pembangkang, tetapi individu dikaitkan dengan Umno, lapor The Sydney Morning Herald (SMH).

“Di Villawood, Sirul hidup selesa dengan kawasan yang ada akses kepada dapur, telefon dan Internet serta dibenarkan menerima pelawat dengan kebenaran daripada Pasukan Sempadan,” kata akhbar itu, merujuk kepada pusat tahanan imigresen di Sydney.

“Peguamnya dari Malaysia ada kaitan dengan Umno. Sepanjang tahun lalu Sirul menerima lawatan pelbagai individu daripada Umno dan pembangkang.”

Pada Mac tahun lalu, bekas ketua penerangan PAS Datuk Mahfuz Omar mengatur pertemuan antara Sirul dan ibunya, walaupun beliau gagal menepati janjinya kepada media untuk “beritahu semuanya” dalam satu telesidang untuk menjelaskan peranan Sirul dalam pembunuhan Altantuya.

Sirul dan bekas anggota polis Azilah Hadri disabitkan bersalah atas tuduhan membunuh wanita Mongolia Altantuya Shaariibuu pada 2006.

Mahkamah Persekutuan mengekalkan hukuman mati terhadap kedua-duanya pada Januari tahun lalu, tetapi Sirul melarikan diri ke Australia dan kemudiannya ditahan di Pusat Tahanan Imigresen Villawood selepas Interpol mengeluarkan notis merah.

Laporan SMH juga memetik kenyataan pihak berkuasa imigresen yang berkata siri video online Sirul yang disiarkan baru-baru ini dibuat olehnya sebelum ditahan dan dibawa ke Villawood.

Al Jazeera tahun lalu melaporkan Sirul, menerusi seorang ahli perniagaan yang ada kaitan dengan pemimpin Malaysia, cuba memeras ugut kerajaan Malaysia dengan jutaan dolar untuk merahsiakan mengenai pembunuhan Altantuya.

Tetapi, polis Australia memberitahu SMH sebarang penyiasatan hanya boleh diteruskan atas persetujuan Putrajaya. – tmi

UMNO figures visited Sirul in Sydney, daily says

Kalu Cina babi kaya takkan ada apek jual apom tepi jalan dan kalu Melayu cilaka kaya takkan ada Melayu tidur di Chow Kit Rd... 

Orang melayu cakap CINA CILAKA sebab semua cina sudah kebas dan monopoli business do Malaysia. Semua Cina sudah kaya.

Orang Cina cakap MELAYU BABI sebab pegang semua kuasa dan bumiputera banyak istimewa di Malaysia. Cina sudah rugi banyak.

Orang India cakap SEMUA PUNDEK sebab kaum minority kena tindas dan tak boleh cari makan. Pundek

Saya cakap PUiii™ la. Sebab semua ini kalau betul, sudah lama kita gaduh dan Malaysia hancur sudah. !!!!!!!!!!

Sudah berapa lama kita hidup sama ? sudah berpuluh puluh tahun. Kita punya moyang, nenek, tok wan, appa, amma sudah lama bikin ini negara Malaysia.

Di Damansara Heights, ada rumah Cina 4 tingkat, ada rumah melayu 4 tingkat ada rumah India 4 tingkat.

Di Flat Sentul, Ah Meng jual nasi ayam duduk sebelah rumah sama Kassim kerja kerani gomen. Muthu jual muruku ada sebelah sana block.

Kerajaan dulu bikin dasar ekonomi baru sebab mau kasi balance ini ekonomi. Sebab bila ada balance dalam socio ekonomi masyarakat, semua orang tarak benci dan jeles sama orang lain dan boleh duduk diam diam aman damai cari makan.

Dasar ekonomi baru cakap. why not kita angkat sikit wang, kita bikin sekolah, kita hantar budak melayu yang masih tinggal jauh dibelakang dalam pelajaran pigi belajar. Hoping dia orang sudah pandai, boleh hidup sikit senang dan bantu dalam ekonomi.

Orang Melayu tak mampu beli rumah dulu-dulu sebab tak berapa cukup wang. Mungkin baru kerja atau baru berniaga. Jadi diadakan itu kuota bumiputera. So that, boleh beli dengan sikit murah.

Percentage orang Melayu miskin dulu-dulu memang tinggi and orang Cina pun faham. Dulu orang Cina tak marah sangat sebab dia ada advantage lain. Dia ada persatuan-persatuan yang kukuh yang boleh tolong kumpul wang bikin sekolah orang Cina. Orang Melayu pun tarak jeles Cina ada rumah besar sebab dia faham, keadaan ekonomi masa lalu.

So kenapa jadi problem sekarang ? Problem sebab ABUSE. 

Orang Melayu yang patut dapat scholarship, tak dapat sebab ada orang dalam guna kuasa hantar orang yang tak layak kasi belajar. Anak yang pandai tapi tarak 'kaki' melepas dan anak orang kaya Melayu yang ada 'kaki' dalam dapat pergi. Tanah yang patut dapat pada orang yang layak, terlepas pada lanun-lanun dan kroni. Project- project yang patut dapat pada contractor2 layak, dapat pada lanun-lanun dan kroni. Cina pun sama jilaker, Melayu pun sama jilaker. Dato Cina kasi Dato Melayu makan wang, Dato Melayu kasi project dan tanah. Ali Baba ma!!!

The inbalance is no more in the racial differences. Tapi inbalance between the top society and the common people on the streets. The people in the category of 'who they know' and the people who don't know anyone began to drift apart.

Bila sudah lama, ini sudah jadi virus yang amat jahat. Kasi penyakit dengki dan benci melanda. It is like a time bomb waiting to explode.

Kalau betul semua CINA BABI dan kaya, kenapa masih ada Cina apek jual apam balik dekat pasar malam. Kalau betul semua MELAYU BUMIPUTERA CILAKA, kenapa masih ada yang tidur tepi jalan di Chow Kit Road ?

And to make it worst, bila ada problem di 'atas' these blardy people gunakan this racial issue untuk kasi orang-orang marah dan bergaduh. Problem kecil jadi besar bila ada manipulation of facts.

This has to stop. And it better happen now, before we all semua rugi. Yang rugi ialah kita, orang biasa yang mau cari makan dengan aman sama-sama. - Puiii™/f/bk.

Zahid would most likely import the Banglas – “quietly” and “secretly”...

The Government of Malaysia has imposed a limit – 15% of foreigners among a total workforce of roughly 15.3 million workers. This means the room can fit an additional 160,000 more foreign workers before hitting the 15% limit. Therefore, the decision to import an additional 1,500,000 Bangladesh workers has created protests from all walks of life.

Newly crowned Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had been super gung-ho about flooding the country with an extra 1.5 million Bangladeshis, despite the fact that undocumented or illegal foreign workers exceeded that number – at 1.7 million. At the end of the day there would be 5,335,000 foreign workers or 17.8% of 30 million Malaysian populations.

That’s right, if Mr Zahid had his way, for every 5 Malaysian citizen, there would be 1 foreigner walking on the street in another 3-year. Of course, that didn’t happen, at least not yet because suddenly the same Zahid announced a freeze on his pet project with immediate effect while the government reviews the two-tier levy programme for foreign workers.

Effective Feb 1 this year, Malaysia was supposed to implement a new system of charging levies on foreign workers based on two different categories of sectors workers are employed in. Each worker in the manufacturing, construction and service sector will be charged RM2,500 per head while those in the plantation and agriculture RM1,500.

They are here already,quietly and secretly...

The funny thing about the whole fiasco was how Najib administration made a fool of themselves in a damage control attempt. Mr. Zahid made a huge U-turn just 24-hour after the memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Bangladesh to import its workers was signed. Thereafter, Malaysian Human Resources Minister Richard Riot said the freeze will not affect the MOU.

What was even bizarre is this – Mr. Richard Riot tried to look smart by proclaiming that the 1.5 million workers in the MOU was actually a total number of Bangladeshis registered to seek employment abroad, and not necessarily heading to Malaysia. Was he representing planet Earth in the MOU taking the role of a U.N. representative on the “Bangla” workers distribution?

While flip flopping is a policy of the Government of Malaysia for as long as one can remember, nobody thought a minister could screw up to such level. Richard Riot’s insult to peoples’ intelligence and Zahid Hamidi’s half-past-six decision-making have gotten too far that even the Government of Bangladesh found it worthwhile poking fun at the issue.

Kira tengok satu hari berapa flight dari Bangladesh,tak kan semua ni pelancong? 

Ada otak pikiaq mai...

Acting secretary of Expatriate Ministry in Bangladesh, Begum Shamsunnahar told the Dhaka Tribune – “It is just an eyewash. The Malaysian government has made the announcement to calm the pressure groups in that country who do not want foreign workers’ recruitment. Bangladesh will send workers to Malaysia as per the deal signed between the two countries.”

Now, it makes sense when Richard Riot confidently said the freeze (not “cancel”) will not affect the MOU. That’s because Zahid Hamidi would most likely import the Banglas – “quietly” and “secretly”. Make no mistake about it. The 1,500,000 Banglas are meant for Malaysia, not for the rest of the world as twisted by Mr. Richard simply because Zahid’s own daughter has admitted to it.

Defending his daddy’s pet project, Nurul Hidayah, has taken the battle to social media – fighting tooth and nail with netizens – who criticised the import of (1.5 million) Bangladeshis. It’s pretty easy to see why cheap labour business is such a lucrative business. Zahid’s own brother company being one of importing agencies, we’re looking at RM4.5 billion (RM3,000 per head) of revenue.

Here’s the biggest problem. Importing foreign workers is a gold mine and in their rush to make fast bucks, the government couldn’t care less about sending those not needed back to their original countries, let alone worrying about social problems. Read Full article...

Zaid - Khalid,sebelum siasat gua,lu dah siasat Najibkah...

Bekas Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Zaid Ibrahim mahu penjelasan daripada polis sama ada mereka telah menyiasat Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Razak berhubung dakwaan pelbagai skandal.

"Pertama, saya berharap Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar menjadi anggota polis yang profesional.

"Beliau sepatutnya memberitahu kita sama ada pihaknya telah menjalankan sebarang siasatan berhubung laporan polis yang dibuat ke atas PM.

"Tugas pegawai polis seperti IGP bukannya untukmelindungi Najib atau sesiapa,” kata Zaid dalam tulisannya di blog hari ini.

Beliau merujuk laporan polis yang dibuat ke atas Najib berfubung ‘derma’ RM2.6 bilion yang disalurkan ke akaun bank peribadinya dan skandal wang RM42 juta SRC International.

Najib menafikan sebarang salah laku mahupun menggunakan wang awam itu untuk tujuan peribadinya.- mk

Have you investigated Najib, Zaid asks IGP...

Former law minister Zaid Ibrahim wants to know whether the police have investigated Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak on his various scandals.

"Firstly, I expect IGP, Khalid Abu Bakar to be a professional policeman.

"He should tell us if he has done any investigation into the police reports lodged against the PM.

"The job of a police officer, like the IGP, is not to protect Najib or any person," Zaid said in his blog today.

He was referring to police reports lodged against Najib on the RM2.6 billion 'donation' and RM42 million SRC International Sdn Bhd scandals.

Najib has denied any wrongdoing or allegations that he misappropriated public funds.

Zaid  was responding to Khalid's warning to him against holding an anti-Najib rally on March 27.

He said the rally, with former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad attending as well, would not be a street protest, but a peaceful gathering.

"When I used the word 'rally behind Tun M' it refers to giving support to Mahathir, not a public protest on the street with Mahathir. Simple English," he said.(IGP no faham Inglishhhh,simple as that he!he!he!)

He said the people have a constitutional right to assemble express their views on the prime minister.

"(Khalid) must not use his position to intimidate people or misrepresent what the law is, in order to prevent people from expressing their views on the PM," Zaid added.

Khalid has warned that a rally against Najib is illegal, as a prime minister can only be ousted through a vote of no confidence or in an election. - mk

Pasai P/Raya Umum Sarawak depa 

bekukan pengambilan warga Bangladesh...

PAS mendakwa tindakan Kerajaan Persekutuan membekukan pengambilan warga Bangladesh hanyalah taktik sementara.

Timbalan Presiden PAS, Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man, berkata ia cuma taktik sementara bagi mengelakkan isu berkenaan daripada menjadi isu utama di Pilihan Raya Negeri (PRN) Sarawak.

“Isu pengambilan warga asing secara besar-besaran ini adalah isu yang merentas kaum, agama dan politik dan ia sudah pasti memberi kesan kepada Barisan Nasional (BN) di PRN Sarawak,” ujarnya dalam satu kenyataan, hari ini.

Jelas Tuan Ibrahim, jika pengambilan warga asing diteruskan, ia akan menjejaskan serta menyebabkan Ketua Menteri Sarawak, Tan Sri Adenan Satem tersepit sekiranya menyokong pengambilan pekerja dari Bangladesh.

“Warganegara yang tertindas di negeri sendiri, terutamanya negeri Sarawak, sudah pasti akan terasa dengan polisi kerajaan untuk membawa sebegitu banyak warga asing ke negara ini. Baca seterusnya...

Din perli Najib,"Kalu saya,dah saman WSJ..."

Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin mencabar kerajaan melalui 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) menyaman editor kewangan Wall Street Journal (WSJ) atas tuduhan berkaitan dana RM2.6bilion membabitkan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Razak.

Beliau berkata, CEO 1MDB Arul Kandasamy sepatutnya  mengemukakan saman ke atas WSJ kerana didakwa memfitnah kononnya  sumber wang itu  datang daripada pelbagai syarikat berkaitan 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) bukan derma daripada kerajaan Arab Saudi.

“WSJ dakwa dana RM2.6 bilion datang daripada pelbagai sumber yang ada kaitan dengan 1MDB. Jika tidak benar tuduhan ini mengapa hingga kini CEO 1MDB tidak ambil tindakan?

“Terkini apa yang dicakapkan oleh Ken Brown.  Jika CEO 1MDB menafikan dakwaan dibuat, itu naïf namanya. Ambil tindakan dan saman.

“ Dulu kata nak saman tapi tak saman, jika saya jadi CEO jika orang tohmah, saya tidak boleh nak naïf saja. Saya ambil tindakan dan saman.

“Bukan kita suka nak ambil tindakan tapi kita nak tahu apakah cerita yang betulnya. Kita nak tahu siapa yang betul siapa yang salah kita mahu kebenaran. Selagi tak betul orang akan hilang kepercayaan terhadap kerajaan,” ujarnya.

Muhyiddin merujuk kepada satu laporan media asing yang mengatakan Pengarang Kewangan WSJ Ken Brown dalam satu wawancara bersama ABC News Australia yang mendakwa wang derma RM2.6 bilion itu adalah bukan daripada keluarga Diraja Arab Saudi.

Muhyiddin berkata demikian ketika berucap pada Majlis Penghargaan Program Tuisyen Percuma yang diadakan di Balai Raya Taman Intan Duyung anjuran Gabungan Ketua Cawangan Malaysia semalam.

Muhyidddin juga menyentuh mengenai keputusan Peguam Negara Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali membebaskan Presiden Umno dari sebarang kesalahan berkaitan derma RM2.6bilon dan RM42juta dari SRC Internatinal dalam siasatan berasingan membabitkan PDRM dan SPRM.

Ahli Parlimen Pagoh ini berkata, Peguam Negara perlu membenarkan beberapa negara terbabit dalam skandal tersebut untuk mengadakan bantuan kerjasama jenayah dengan Malaysia di bawah Mutual Law Assistance (MLA).

“Sama ada peguam negara mahu bantu atau tidak memberi kebenaran MLA kepada Switzerland, Singapura Hong kong dan Amerika Syarikat untuk jalankan siasatan mereka.

“ Nanti mereka akan buat laporan kononnya Malaysia tidak memberi sokongan terhadap negara mereka untuk jalankan siasatan pula,” ujarnya.

Malah kata beliau lagi, bukan bertujuan untuk memburukkan kepimpinan Perdana Menteri dan ketelusan Peguam Negara sebaliknya, ujar beliau rakyat mempertikaikannya malah dunia turut mempersoalkan skandal yang membabitkan Perdan Menteri itu sejak sekian lama.

Beliau menjelaskan peruntukkan perlembagaaan yang memberi kuasa kepada Yang Dipertuan Agong untuk melantik peguam negara, atas nasihat Perdana Menteri, bukan bermakna peguam negara tidak boleh mengambil tindakan terhadap seorang Perdana Menteri jika terdapat bukti untuk pendakwaan.

“Saya bukan nak burukkan nama PM dan Peguam Negara. Dunia persoalkan kenapa Peguam negara tidak ambil tindakan terhadap PM.

““Jika seseorang itu dibuktikan banyak melakukan kesalahan maka itu tidak bermakna Peguam Negara tidak boleh bertindak.

“Kalau dulu Ghani Patail (bekas Peguam Negara) tidak bertindak Apandi juga tidak bertindak. Persoalannya sama ada Peguam Negara boleh bertindak atau tidak? ” ujarnya. - malaysiadateline

Najib, saman WSJ atau letak jawatan

What if Najib or 1MDB sued WSJ?...

We are all waiting for Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s one major decision - to take the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) to court.

Although WSJ’s report has been most damaging to his reputation, as well as the reputation of Malaysia as a country, both Najib and 1MDB could only afford to skirt around the allegations made by WSJ instead of suing WSJ.

For example, 1MDB in a statement accused WSJ’s reporting “has never been called into question, is not only disingenuous but an outright lie”. If it has never been called into question, then why not challenge WSJ in court?

As usual, ministers such as Azalina Othman could only use the same line of argument - that “there are parties from within the country and outside who are trying to use back-handed tactics to topple the democratically-elected prime minister.”

We recall years ago, former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad also said the same of George Soros and the Jews, in order to cover up the weaknesses of his own administration. I see this as some people becoming bankrupt of ideas that they have to use the same line.

Meanwhile, I am always amused by responses from two other ministers. One of them, however, has remained silent but Urban Wellbeing, Housing and Local Government Minister Abdul Rahman Dahlan has made a sweeping statement that WSJ has “broken every rule of journalism in the book. How do we know these people even exist?”

I just wonder what he means by “every rule of journalism”! In journalism, it is perfectly fine to quote someone who prefers to remain anonymous, but if there is a need to produce the witness in court, then the journalist could be compelled to reveal the sources.

Why so unwilling to sue WSJ?

My question therefore, is why is Najib and 1MDB seemingly so unwilling to drag WSJ to court?

Perhaps, one hint lies with the answer given by WSJ’s finance editor Ken Brown, who told ABC News Australia on Feb 12 that his team has “loads of evidence to back up” their story.

Whereas Najib and his men’s story keeps changing over the identity of the donor, Brown maintains that the money funnelled into Najib’s personal accounts came from a “bunch of companies and bank accounts related to 1MDB.” Although we may give Najib the benefit of the doubt, Brown’s allegations certainly warrant an appropriate reaction since Najib’s international reputation is now at stake.

Yet, why do we see Najib and 1MDB dragging their feet despite being challenged to drag WSJ to court?

Najib and 1MDB president Arul Kanda Kandasamy know that they are not dealing with any Tom, Dick and Harry from the streets of New York. WSJ has been around since July 8, 1889, and today, it is the largest newspaper in the United States by circulation, with over 2.4 million copies in print (including 900,000 digital subscriptions).

There you go, our Rahman Dahlan is giving a lecture to journalists from the WSJ! Having graduated from Sonoma State University in California, Rahman should know better what WSJ stands for in the United States.

WSJ would not publish anything that is serious in its allegations against a country’s prime minister unless it has “loads of evidence” to support its story.

Man’s dignity is to defend the truth

A man’s dignity is to defend the truth. Najib has described himself as a brave Bugis warrior who would not abandon the ship.

Therefore, when the Bugis warrior is challenged, there is no reason not to put on a brave fight, even to defend himself to the point of death.

But, why did Najib not defend his case against WSJ? Never mind about winning or losing the case in court, but I can only speculate that there is this major fear that more evidence will be exposed in court if the case proceeded.

This would probably be even more damaging to Najib’s own reputation. We will never know what this “load of evidence” can do to Najib’s own credibility as the leader of this country until WSJ has a chance to expose it in court.

Even if Najib won the case, and WSJ has to pay huge sums in historically one of the biggest defamation cases, the world would have witnessed what could be one of the biggest scandals in Malaysia.

Under the present circumstances, this is not impossible, but it would mean exposing our judiciary system to scrutiny by the rest of the world. Of course, the ruling can go either way whether it is in a Malaysian court or a court in the United States, but, what if the case is brought against WSJ in a court in the US and the ruling turns out against Najib and 1MDB?

What if Najib and 1MDB lost?

In short, what if Najib and 1MDB lost the case?

What would be their fate? Where will they hide their faces? Would it mean that the other investigative bodies currently investigating into possible money-laundering use the case to their own advantage?

While the appeal process can take several years, the damage would have been done should Najib and 1DMB lose the case to WSJ, and this is not what anyone in their position would like to see happening.

Under such circumstances, I rest my case. I do not think that Najib, 1MDB or anyone for the matter would take such great risks to drag the WSJ team to court.- Stephen Nag,mk
