Perak Pakatan Goverment Stays

The Perak Goverment led by Pakatan Rakyat continues to be the goverment of the day despite being a minority goverment . The administration is functioning as normal unless the goverment changes hand. The goverment will only changed under the following 3 circumstances :

1. The Sultan consents to the dissolution of the state assembly;

2. The Menteri Besar and his coalition goverment resigns voluntarily;

3. The BN passing a motion of no confidence against the Menteri Besar forcing him to quit.

As such, the Perak Goverment shall continue to function as normal albeit aminority goverment until any of the above 3 circumstances is exercised.

The Menteri Besar in a press conference late last night chided the Deputy Prime Minister for trying to grab power in Perak through unconstitutional means. As the incoming Prime Minister, Najib should respect the popular votes of Perakian cast in the 12th GE and only uses a fair and constitutional means to change a goverment.

BN Will Suffer In GE13 - NTV7 8pm Poll

ntv7 poll - 96% say BN will suffer in next GE
Many Malaysians are angry and felt betrayed with what the frogs are doing in Perak.
An SMS poll on ntv7 over its prime time 8.00pm news in English asked whether the Perak crisis would affect the BN’s performance negatively in the next general election.
The results revealed that 96 per cent of respondents said it would.
Malaysians are obviously aware of how the BN is subverting with the aspirations of the people. The BN will find that short-term political gains - achieved through such questionable means - will come at a heavy price in the longer term.

Assalamualaikum,

Setelah membuat pertimbangan terutamanya apabila melihat perkembangan suasana politik khasnya arah tuju sokongan rakyat selepas Pilihanraya Umum ke 12 pada bulan Mac 2008, serta keadaan-keadaan yang wujud dalam parti dan kepimpinan Umno, saya dengan ini mengambil keputusan untuk keluar dari Umno dan seterusnya menyertai PKR iaitu salah satu parti dalam Pakatan Rakyat.

Saya amat yakin dengan kepimpinan Parti Keadilan Rakyat yang mempunyai iltizam dan idealisme yang kuat untuk memperjuangkan hak-hak dan kepentingan rakyat yang terdiri dari pelbagai kaum di negara ini.
Saya yakin Parti Keadilan Rakyat akan tetap menjunjung dan menghormati hak-hak yang termaktub dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan khususnya dalam kedudukan Bahasa Melayu sebagai bahasa rasmi kebangsaan, kedaulatan Raja-Raja Melayu dan kedudukan Islam sebagai agama Persekutuan.
Saya percaya Parti Keadilan Rakyat dan rakan-rakan dalam Pakatan Rakyat mampu untuk menjadi sebuah permuafakatan komponen parti-parti yang lebih baik demi kepentingan rakyat seluruhnya.

—PRESS STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE—
PETALING JAYA, 25 JANUARI 2009
Assalamualaikum,
After taking into consideration the development of the political atmosphere, specifically the direction of the public’s support since the 12th General Election in March 2008, and also the condition that exists now in Umno and its leadership, I have taken the decision to leave Umno and join PKR, one of the parties in Pakatan Rakyat, effective today.
This decision has been taken after a long study and consideration of the public’s interest in general, especially my supporters and voters in the state assembly area of Bota.
1. I am very confident in the leadership of PKR that has the will and strong idealism to fight for the rights and interest of the multiracial public in this country.
2. I am confident that PKR will uphold and respect the rights that are enshrined in the Federal Constitution especially the position of Bahasa Malaysia as the official language, the sovereignty of the Malay rulers and the position of Islam as the official religion.
3. I believe that PKR and its partners in Pakatan Rakyat can establish a stronger coalition of component parties for the interest of the general public.
4. This will enable me to be a more effective assemblyman and to offer the best service to the local residents, seeing as Pakatan Rakyat has already established government in Perak.

PERAK STATE ASSEMBLYMAN FOR BOTA

To DIE or to RESIGN!!!

To DIE or to RESIGN!!!

The KT by-election is over and all euphoria has died down but the fact remains – only when there is a by-election or general election will the federal government (the custodian of our hard earn money) ditch out “goodies” to the particular constituency.

Suddenly, UMNO/BN ministers and menteri besar sees it fit to announce millions and millions of impending projects. The recent KT by-election saw goodies such as angpows, new roads, new buildings, oil royalties rolling into the constituency of the second richest state in Malaysia.

Among the goodies announced were :

1. Setting up of Tabung Kecemasan Nelayan involving RM1 million;
2. An allocation of RM150,000 for the development of Kuala Terengganu fishermen scheme (Skim pembangunan nelayan Kuala Terengganu);
3. Direct awarding (secara lambak) of 583 Class “F” tender worth RM15.8 million;
4. Construction of a cardiology unit of RM10 million;
5. Official opening ceremony of the construction of the Kubang Ikan (Kuala Terengganu) mosque on 15 January 2009;
6. Ground breaking ceremony for the construction of 1,200 units of Projek Perumahan Rakyat Termiskin (PPRT);
7. RM100million allocation for the construction of 1,000 units of low cost housing in Kuala Terengganu;
8. Contribution of RM6.1 million to Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan © Chung Hwa Wei Sin;
9. Contribution of RM2.5 million for the Kuala Terengganu Chinese community;
10. Announcement of RM50 million geran for Chinese schools;
11. Contribution of E-book pilot (computers) to 100 person in Kuala Terengganu.with a promise to further contribute 23,000 sets of E-book (computers), each costing RM1,300 to school children;
12. A total of 206 songket weaving entrepreneur receiving a set of Traditional Weaving Machine each worth RM695 per unit;
13. The oil royalty contribution of RM408.6 million to the Terengganu State government;
14. The official announcement of the widening of the inlet-outlet fishery harbour at Cenderiang Harbour .

Etc, etc, etc, etc ………………………….

All this happened just because of the passing away of a UMNO/BN member of Parliament and UMNO/BN needed to pour out all this sweetener in order to recapture the seat .

Can we just imagine what will happen if members of parliament and state assemblymens decide to sacrifice themselves (of cause not to commit suicide) by RESIGNING on a nationwide scale (without triggering a general election) on a regular basis?

Ipoh Central Market Old Wing - Retail Chicken Section

The more than 70 year old central market (old wing - retail chicken section) has finally lived out its old age. It was built before World War II without bolt and nuts and although most of the upperwooden pillars and beams remained strong and unscathed, the same cannot be said of the bottom part of the pillars due to daily exposure of cleansing water.

On 26th December 2008, one of the pillar gave way due to the bottom part eaten by termites, thus, resulting in other beams and pillars running out of allignment.

After being informed of the incident, the Datuk Bandar visited the market the very next day and an emergency meeting was held with all his staff concerned together with the councillor and Member of Parliment, YB Kulasegaran.

Safety to the public was the primary concern and the section was immediately declared unsafe and out of bound to all retailers and the public. The retailers affected were advised to relocate to other stores nearby in other that their business will not be affected. Electricity and water supply was immediately arranged for them.

Several upgrading proposals for the old wing were brought up and discussed. The engineering department of Dewan BandarayaIpoh (DBI) estimated that at least RM4.0 million is required to rebuild the old wing into a state of art building where the waste will be properly collected and disposed with well constructed drainages. The stench currently experienced by the public while shopping for our favourite chicken/duck parts will soon be history. As such, Dewan Bandaraya Ipoh on behalf of the state goverment welcomes viable proposals from contractors or developers the soonest possible.

电讯塔

(怡保3日讯）市政厅证实，电讯公司在华大伟组屋前店屋顶上安装电讯塔之前，并未按照程序向市政厅提出申请。

市政厅今日向甲巴央区州议员陆致仁作出这项证实时表示，市政厅将向有关的电讯公司发出通知书，同时发出罚单惩罚有关公司违反市政厅既定的条例。

陆致仁今日上午针对华大伟居民集体反对电讯公司“悄悄”安装电讯塔作出投诉，亲自会见市长拉西迪时获得保证，市政厅答应将进一步研究是否需要向电讯公司展开进一步行动。

市长说，市政厅将根据中央政府旗下的通讯及多媒体委员会的最新指南，鉴定已经安装的电讯塔的去留与命运。该委员会最近已经向地方政府发出指南，包括说明电讯塔发出的安全电磁和频率标准。

陆致仁说，假使市民对于市政厅的决定不满，他愿意与人民站在同一阵线上，协助向中央政府反映人民反对电讯公司在有关地点安装电讯塔的理由，包括担心近距离安装的电讯塔会为该组屋500多户居民的健康带来负面影响。

种族之间的矛盾

(怡保3 日讯）甲巴央区州议员陆致仁抨击尤仑区国会议员拿督慕克力平地制造种族之间的紧张，尤其是建议统一教育制度的言论，明显罔顾他族存在与感受，只求在激烈的党选中捞取支持票来实现继承老父多年政治霸业的野心。

他说，慕克力的一番话不仅不得体，也不比老父有智慧。在国会的偏激建议和历来阶段的巫青团领袖没有两样，反而在政治海啸还在怒吼之际不识抬举，让其他族群对他的短见和人格失去信心。

陆致仁在一篇文告中说，霸权半个世纪的巫统在国阵已经嚣张得目中无人，它这些年来故意制造的狭隘种族主义就是故意分裂种族的棋子。巫统代表马来族群、马华代表华裔、国大党代表印度人却又故意让民政党制衡马华、人民进步党分化国大党的政治团结，自己却永远的一党坐大。

他说，慕克力建议的单一国民型学校将只在形态上强迫各族学生上课时交融，但下课后意识上却各怀鬼胎，尤其是中学毕业后不平等的升学制度，进一步制造种族之间的猜疑，心理严重失衡下的仇视与鸿沟就会越大。

因此，国阵应该以身作侧，拆除种族政党组成的国阵，从此不分种族，取消在政经文教的土著与非土著区分以及种族特权与优惠，以单一的多元种族政体公平体现真正公正平等的政治理想，才是真正要促进各族团结的基石与用心，表示继续制造种族之间的矛盾。
