MALAYSIA TANAHAIR KU

Negara-ku Malaysia, Tanahair-ku, Tanah di mana sembilan puluh tahun dahulu
Darah tumpah dan aku dilahir
Di lahir sebagai anak bangsa yang dijajah
Aku membesar mempertuankan orang asing
Terhina dan dihina
Bangsa yang serba kekurangan
Tinggal dipondok berbumbung atap nipah
Berdinding, berlantai kayu
Namun aku lebih bahagia dari ramai bangsaku
Mereka tinggal di pondok robek, tiris apabila hujan
Tanpa pili air tanpa lampu letrik
Anak mereka berkaki ayam, berkudis
Demam panas dan kadang-kadang meninggal
Aku survive, aku ke sekolah, aku ke universiti
Nasib aku lebih baik
Allah Subhanahu Wataala kesian kepada aku
Setelah dijajah oleh satu bangsa, dijajah pula oleh dua bangsa lagi
Aku bertanya akan bangsaku selalunya dijajah orangkah?
Alhamdullilah, berkat kesedaran, berkat perjuangan, berkat perpaduan
Bangsaku dibebas, merdeka
Apakah merdeka hanya bermakna tidak dijajah orang
Apakah merdeka bermakna terus merana
Tidak, tidak, tidak
Merdeka bermakna kemajuan
Kemajuan sehingga berdiri sama tinggi
Duduk sama rendah dengan bekas penjajah dan bangsa lain
Bahkan mungkin lebih tinggi
Politik yang menyelamat dahulu
Terus membela bangsa
Negara dibangun, bangsa dibangun, agama di muliakan
Kemudian…
Malang dan sedih,
Bangsa yang berjiwa kental, bersemangat besi
Diserang oleh nafsu dan perasaan tamak
Aku dapat apa dari kemerdekaan tanya mereka?
Mana bahagian aku?
Dan semangat pun menjadi luntur, tidak terdaya mengawal nafsu
Apa makna senang jika untuk mendapat sesuatu begitu susah
Dan nafsu dan perasaan tamak pun di peralat dan disogok oleh orang-orang politik dan orang kaya
Bangsa yang merdeka
Bangsa yang mulia
Sekarang sanggup menjual hak yang sedikit
Hak memilih, hak mengundi
Untuk mendapat kesenangan tanpa usaha, kesenangan yang sedikit
Maruah dijual
Bangsa dijual
Tanahair dijual
Segalanya dijual
Untuk nikmat yang tidak kekal, nikmat yang sementara yang sedikit sahaja
Politik yang menyelamat
Menjadi politik yang menghancur
Pemimpin semakin tamak
Untuk tempat dan kedudukan tinggi
Perbuatan yang haram dihalalkan
Nama Allah diperalatkan, dijual untuk nikmat yang sementara di dunia
Akan kembalikah bangsaku
Menjadi bangsa yang dijajah, dihina dan diperhambakan
Wahai bangsaku
Begitu mudahkah kamu lupa
Aku akan pergi tidak lama lagi
Dapatkah aku pejam mata dan hembus nafas terakhir
Kerana bangsaku
Negaraku
Masih mulia
Masih bermaruah
Masih dipandang tinggi
Atau mataku terbeliak
Nafasku tersesak, terhenti, kerana segala yang diperjuangkan luput ditelan nafsu
Ya Allah lindungilah bangsaku
Sedarkanlah mereka
Sedarkan mereka bahawa Engkau tidak akan mengubah nasib bangsa
Melainkan bangsa itu sendiri cuba mengubahnya
Mengubah sendiri, membendung nafsu
Kerana Allah
Kerana agama
Kerana bangsa
Kerana negara
Biarlah aku pergi
Mata terpejam rapat
Nafas perlahan berhenti…

Terima Kasih Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad



Dari dahulu sehingga sekarang, niat Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad hanya satu. Ianya nyata bukan untuk memperkayakan diri dan keluarga atau semata-mata untuk tampil popular dan disukai ramai. 

Singkapan ringkas diatas mungkin dapat membuka mata rakyat Malaysia, khususnya anak-anak muda yang barangkali tidak berapa mengenali Tun Dr Mahathir ketika beliau menerajui negara kita. 

Legasi dan pencapaian Tun Dr Mahathir yang paling utama ialah tindakan beliau memperkasakan jati diri setiap rakyat Malaysia. Semangat Malaysia Boleh masih membara dihati rakyat sehingga hari ini.

Terima kasih Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Budi dan jasa mu tidak mungkin dapat kami balas. 

Semoga Allah terus mengurniakan kesejahteraan serta kesihatan yang baik buat Tun Dr Mahathir dan Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali. 

Amin.

Pesanan Tun Dr Mahathir untuk AHLI-AHLI AKAR UMBI UMNO

Dengar dulu... 
1. Saya ucap terima kasih kerana ada ahli-ahli akar umbi UMNO yang menasihati saya supaya tidak “menyerang” Dato’ Sri Najib, Presiden UMNO dan Perdana Menteri Malaysia.

2. Saya punyai sedikit pengalaman dalam bidang politik, terutama yang berkaitan dengan budaya Melayu. Kita cenderung untuk setia kepada pemimpin. Kita tidak soal apa-apa yang dilakukan oleh pemimpin. Dia pemimpin, kita pengikut. Oleh itu, ikut sahajalah. Lebih-lebih lagi apabila kita diberi penerangan olehnya secara tertutup seolah-olah kita dapat berkongsi rahsia dengan pemimpin kita.

3. Tetapi untuk kita membuat keputusan atau menghukum secara bijak, secara adil  kita perlu dengar kedua-dua belah pihak.

4. Jika ada yang fikir saya merosakkan parti, saya harap saya diberi peluang untuk menjelaskan kenapa saya “menyerang” Dato’  Sri Najib. Bagi saya serangan ini mungkin tidak menyenangkan Najib dan sebahagian daripada ahli UMNO tetapi sebabnya ialah kerana saya ingin menyelamatkan UMNO, parti keramat yang dahulu disokong sehingga menang 2/3 tiap PRU.

5. Hanya mereka yang tidak dapat lihat sahaja yang tidak sedar bahawa UMNO  dibawah Dato’ Sri Najib telah gagal memulih UMNO selepas Tun Abdullah. Kemenangan Najib lebih tipis.

6. Saya harap saya diberi peluang berjumpa dengan ahli UMNO biasa untuk menerang akan masalah kehilangan berbillion  Ringgit oleh Dato’ Sri Najib. Lepas mendengar kedua-dua pihak adililah terhadap “serangan” saya. Apakah saya sedang merosakan parti atau mencuba menyelamatkanya.

1MDB - PRIME MINISTER going on leave?


In his Comment that appeared in the NST yesterday (Monday, April 27, 2015), Tunku Abdul Aziz says quite a lot on the subject which we know is and has been very close to his heart. Tunku Aziz, as we know, is a man with strong principles in life. It is due to such principles that the once Deputy Vice Chairman of DAP quit the party in the run up to the 2013 General Elections. 
I have had the privilege of meeting up with the man himself on a few occasions, just for brief discussions. I have not an iota of doubt of his integrity and moral values. It is with such awe and respect that I'm writing to highlight certain omissions and seek opinions from the learned man who is the founding member of the Malaysian Chapter of Transparency International.  

Firstly, taking note of the above paragraph in which Tunku Abdul Aziz calls for Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to lodge reports with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (of which Tunku is a board member) and the Police, I would like to inform Tunku that detailed reports to the respective agencies have been lodged. In the case of the Police, a specific report has also been lodged against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and two others from 1MDB

So far there has been two police reports, including the one with specific mention of Najib Razak, and another report to the MACC. More reports may follow suit if the agencies remain like a tiger chained to the pole.

I'm sure the learned Tunku Aziz was not suggesting that the respective authorities would commence some form of investigations ONLY if Dr Mahathir himself lodges reports to the trusted agencies. If that is how investigating agencies operate in our country, then I would suggest Dr Mahathir to seriously consider Tunku Aziz's suggestion.


Secondly, I also fully agree with Tunku Aziz that 'we should not short-circuit the systems and procedures that regulate the conduct of government business'. 

It is with this fear of the systems being short-circuited that I'm now seeking Tunku Abdul Aziz's opinion on a very basic issue of transparency, good governance and the likes of it. 

Dear Tunku Abdul Aziz, 

Mohd Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak who is 1MDB's Chairman of the Board of Advisors, Finance Minister and Prime Minister is someone who has been directly implicated in the 1MDB scandal. 

Najib is implicated not only in his positions/capacity as mentioned above but also due to his personal/family association with dubious characters linked to the 1MDB scandal. His wife is also very much in the picture.

Do you, as a learned person who is seen to be fighting corruption, upholding transparency, good governance and everything good that comes with it, share my opinion that Najib Razak should take leave from all Government positions until the Police, MACC, Auditor General and the Public Accounts Committee complete their probe into the 1MDB scandal? 

Give us a Yes or No.

Should the Prime Minister not go on leave to allow the respective agencies unlimited access, free hand and a free-from-intimidation environment to complete the probe?

p/s Najib's position as Umno president, though very much inter-related, is another matter and is being addressed despite overwhelming scare tactics and RM.

#UNDURLAH Najib Razak

Bicara Negarawan bersama Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad pada pagi Sabtu di Taman Melawati boleh ditakrifkan sebagai langkah yang menandakan 'beginning of the end' bagi karier Datuk Seri Najib Razak sebagai Presiden Umno dan Perdana Menteri Malaysia. 
Jika revolusi minda yang dilancarkan secara terbuka dihadapan ratusan hadirin yang bersesak-sesak di dewan yang sempit ini gagal membuka mata hati dan minda rakyat, maka ini juga akan menandakan 'beginning of the end' bagi Umno dan BN. Itulah intipati yang dibicarakan negarawan kita yang akan mencecah umur 90 tahun dalam beberapa bulan lagi. 

Ikuti ucapan Dr Mahathir serta sesi dialog (rakaman video ikhsan rakan blogger Din Turtle) dan fikirkan lah sendiri apa yang baik untuk rakyat dan negara tercinta ini.



Berikut adalah sesi soal-jawab. Soalan pertama dalam video ini adalah berkenaan GST.

Nota: Saranan agar pemimpin ditukar ganti bukan satu hasutan dan tidak ada undang-undang dalam negara kita yang menghalang rakyat daripada menyuarakan pendapat agar pemimpin yang difikirkan sudah tidak layak memegang tampuk pemerintahan diganti dengan pemimpin lain. Jangan gundah gulana. 

Ehhhhhh! Siapa yang terkinja-kinja kat negara orang ni? 

Betul ker, salah ker. Patut ker, tak patut ker. Layak ker, tak layak ker. Malu ker, tak malu ker. Anda nilai lah sendiri. 

p/s Ini salah satu daripada tabiat yang orang tua tak berapa gemar kot.

Laporan POLIS terhadap Najib Razak

Datuk Seri Khairuddin Abu Hassan, bekas Naib Ketua Bahagian Batu Kawan yang dipecat dari jawatan Umno atas alasan beliau telah muflis sejurus selepas membuat laporan POLIS dan laporan SPRM berhubung SKANDAL 1MDB tempohari, telah tampil membuat satu lagi laporan POLIS hari ini. 
Laporan terbaru ini adalah lebih khusus.
Selain memohon siasatan ke-atas Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak yang juga Menteri Kewangan merangkap Penasihat Numero Uno 1MDB, Khairuddin juga telah memohon pihak POLIS menyiasat Pengerusi Lembaga Pengarah 1MDB Tan Sri Lodin Wok Kamarudin dan President 1MDB Arul Kanda Kandasamy. 
Jangan belit-belit Datuk Seri. Mana wang berbillion ringgit milik Kerajaan Malaysia yang hilang itu?
p/s Sebelum ini, setahu saya, Khairuddin tidak pernah membuat cadangan untuk membina jambatan bengkok dan difahamkan beliau juga tidak membuat laporan-laporan ini kerana ingin anak beliau menjadi Perdana Menteri Malaysia. Terima Kasih.

1MDB by Dr M


UPDATED - Below is former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's partial reasoning on WHY NAJIB RAZAK CANNOT CONTINUE TO BE PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA.

Earlier today, addressing a group of investors gathered in Kuala Lumpur, Najib reportedly said that he doesn't feel lonely in telling the truth. I hope Najib gathers enough guts to now stand up and address the pertinent questions posed by Dr Mahathir on the missing BILLIONS of Ringgit of Government funds. 

Please read Dr M's list of questions again Mister Prime Minister (don't worrythe crooked bridge is certainly not in the list) before you make your next looney...I mean lonely statement. TQ


1MDB

1. The management of Government finances is governed by laws, rules, regulations and practices. Companies also have similar systems but Government manages huge sums of money, basically the people’s money and it is imperative that the managers follow the laws, rules and regulations.

2. Corruption prevails in almost all Governments. But usually they involve relatively small sums. The work of auditors are supplemented by special anti-corruption authorities to ensure that as little as possible of Government money is misused, abused or basically stolen by the people authorised to manage it.

3. Governments can lose money through bad investments. We would know where the money is lost. But when huge sums of money disappear, then those entrusted with its management must answer for the disappearance. Disappearance is different from just losing. Disappearance is about money lost which cannot be traced. This can be because of corruption or theft.


4. In Malaysia the PM and DPM usually hold one extra portfolio. Usually the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Defence alternate between the two. Occasionally while waiting for suitable candidate, the Ministry of Finance is held by the PM. Dato Sri Najib however prefers to keep the Ministry of Finance under him all the time. He has appointed a second Minister of Finance. This is his prerogative of course, but he must ultimately be responsible for what happens to the country’s finances.

5. The first requisite for the management of Government money is the yearly budget. Prepared by the Ministry of Finance from feedbacks by all ministries and departments, the budget is first presented to the Cabinet. If passed it is then presented to Parliament.

6. Government is expected to spend money according to the budget. If the yearly budget cannot meet an urgent need of the Government, a supplementary budget can be presented by Cabinet to Parliament. Drafts of the budgets are prepared by officers of the Ministry. Government raises money through taxes and fees of all kinds. Government may own special businesses such as Petronas, which may contribute to the budget.

7. In Malaysia there is also off-budget-funds which may not be presented to Parliament but are still subject to scrutiny and approval of the Cabinet.

8. Cabinet papers are secret of course. But in the case of 1MDB the presentation to the Cabinet and approval by it seems to be unclear. There seems to be attempts to hide behind official secrecy.

9. What we do know is that 1MDB has as its advisor the Prime Minister and Minister of Finance. It is inexcusable that the management which is appointed by the PM would reject his advice. So like the British Advisor of old, the advice of the Advisor is a directive.

10. Since then three CEOs of 1MDB have resigned without explanation. Could it be because they could not accept the advice!

11. The Government invested one million Ringgit in the 1MDB. According to known records 1MDB then borrowed from various sources 42 billion Ringgit.

12. A company with 1 million Ringgit capital with no assets cannot borrow 42,000 times its capital with no collaterals. That 1MDB is able to do so is because of Government guarantees.

13. In other words it is Government which is borrowing the money. If 1MDB loses money, the Government will bear the loss. Yet the operation of 1MDB is not overseen by Government officers responsible for the management of Government funds.

14. Why has the 1MDB become controversial? What is wrong with 1MDB?

15. From the beginning it was wrong. It started off as an off-budget and it was not put before the Parliament.

16. The money was borrowed. So it is not sovereign wealth but sovereign debt.

17. The bond raised by Goldman Sachs costs more than is usual for Government borrowings. The interest rate at 5.9% was too high. Government loans usually attract about 3% or below.

18. In addition 10% commission went to Goldman Sachs which means that 1MDB gets only 90% of the money borrowed yet has to pay interest on 100%, raising the interest rate to 6.6%. Averaging at 6%, yearly interest on 42 billion Ringgit is about RM 2.5 billion. Since 2009 there has been no income from all the assets. And 1MDB had to borrow RM2 billion to pay the interest. The loan is now RM42 billion.

19. Total initial borrowings amounted to 42,000,000,000 (42 billion Ringgit). As far as can be ascertained the investments are as follows:

a. Purchase of Tanjong Energy (now known as Powertek Energy Sdn Bhd) from Ananda Krishnan for RM 8.5 billion. This is higher than market price. The licence was about to expire.

b. Purchase of Genting Sanyen Power (now known as Kuala Langat Power Plant) for RM 2.3 billion. Again high above market price. The licence was abut to expire.

c. Purchase of Jimah Energy for RM 1.2 billion.

d. Purchase of 70 acres of land in Jalan Tun Razak for RM320 million i.e: RM64.00 psf. Land last sold in the area was at RM7,000 psf.

e. Purchase of 495 acres of land in the former Sungai Besi TUDM airport (now known as Bandar Malaysia) about RM 363.5 million i.e: at RM 91.00 psf. Estimated value RM1,000 psf.

f. Purchase of 234 acres land in Air Itam in Penang RM 1.38 billion i.e: at RM135.00 psf.

20. It should be noted that TRX land is close to land recently sold at RM7000.00 psf. Assuming the market price is RM3000.00 psf the true value of this land is 6 billion Ringgit. The Government has therefore lost 5 billion plus because 1MDB paid only RM320 million.

21. With regard to the Sungai Besi Airport land, 1MDB paid 363.5 million Ringgit for 495 acres – i.e at RM91 psf. Assuming market price for this land is RM1000 psf. the Government lost approximately 20 billion Ringgit.

22. The land in Penang is of poor quality and has more than 1000 squatters. Yet 1MDB paid RM1.3 billion i.e at RM 135 psf.

23. These are all the purchases that are known. They all add up to RM14.7 billion. So there is approximately 27 billion Ringgit left.

24. More than 1billion US Dollars were said to be paid to Petro Saudi without verification as to the value of this company or its assets.

25. Where is the rest of the money?

26. A certain amount was registered in the Cayman Islands. What was the money used for? What was brought back to Malaysia. What was brought back and deposited in a Swiss bank in Singapore. Why? Where was the money brought back from? Why is this money not used to pay the RM 2 billion interest. Why did Bank Negara allow the first tranche to be repatriated to Malaysia and not the second tranche. Now the Swiss bank has told the Singapore authorities that the document did not originate from them and does not represent a true account of the assets of 1MDB. So where is the money said to be registered in the Cayman Islands and is now brought back.

27. Clearly 1MDB is not getting any return from its investments. Not only is it losing money but the Government has lost money when 1MDB paid only RM683 million for TRX and Sungai Besi. Total loss incurred by the Government is approximately 25 billion Ringgit.

28. 1MDB revalued all its assets at 52 billion Ringgit. That is because Government land was brought at far below the market price. It can only use this money to repay loans if it succeeds in selling them off as land or after development. Progress on TRX is very slow and there is no work on Sungai Besi land. No money will be generated during development; only outflows.

29. It is this disappearance of a huge amount of borrowed money by 1MDB and the inability to answer questions regarding what happened to the funds that disqualifies Najib from being Prime Minister of Malaysia.

The crooked bridge and me - Dr M

1. Some people believe that I am so angry over not building the crooked bridge that I want Najib to resign.

2. I am not so frivolous. Yes, I am disappointed, especially as Najib appealed to the Singapore PM to build a bridge and the latter rejected it. It is shameful that we dare not build a bridge in our own land without approval by Singapore.

3. This shameful episode is not enough for me to ask Najib to step down. Najib is the son of Tun Razak, the man responsible for my elevation to Prime Ministership. Partly for that reason and partly because Najib showed good performance when I was PM, I wanted Najib to be PM. And people know I worked hard at it pressuring Abdullah to appoint him as DPM, so that he would become PM, when Abdullah leaves.

4. But Najib failed in many areas after becoming PM. Apart from the bridge he did not go ahead with the double tracking and electrification of the railway line from J.B. to Padang Besar which had been agreed upon but was dropped by Abdullah. For 14 billion Ringgit we would have this project completed by 2010. Instead, forced by the demand, he sanctioned the continuation of the track from Ipoh to Padang Besar for 12 billion Ringgit. We lost a lot of money.

5. Then he began to recruit his own 4th floor boys plus a number of British personnel to advise him on how to run the country. They, also used foreign consultants costing more than 7 billion ringgit. We had achieved independence in 1957 and we got rid of British advisers. We did better without them. Najib did not seem to believe in the Malaysian capacity to develop the country.

6. Ignoring the EPU and other Government departments he set up a new agency to plan the development of the country. This agency was headed by a non-civil servant and the salaries of these personnel far exceed that paid to civil servants.

7. The civil servants were very unhappy. In the past they on their own transformed this country from a developing country to a middle-income nation. Now their services, their expertise and experience are no longer needed.

8. They had always been loyal to the BN Government. Now many no longer support the Government. Some even join the opposition after retirement and stood as candidates in elections.

9. As a result of the role given to this new agency the policies of the Government were changed. Najib was told that the rejection of Abdullah in 2008 was due to Chinese dislike for the New Economic Policy. To win them back Najib must ignore affirmative action and should be seen to be more supportive of the Chinese and Indians.

10. He reduced places for bumis in the Government Universities even though in the numerous private universities and twinned colleges, bumis make up less than 10%. Bumiputra contactors and small business no longer had government favour. Most had to stop their businesses.

11. Without saying so in so many words he had adopted the Malaysian Malaysia slogan of the opposition, only calling it One Malaysia instead.

12. Responding to opposition demand he abolished the ISA and freed all those under restricted residence. Crime rates went up.

13. Then he started giving money to people, not just to individuals who earn less than RM3000/- per month but to the associations and the corporate sector as well. Billions were spent on this.

14. Then rallies were organised on every occasions. The organisers were instructed to gather 10,000 people. They were given food and allowances and were transported to the sites, where they were given placards to hold up with “I love PM” written on them. A song 1M4U was composed and sung even at the national day parade.

15. Despite all these the Chinese refused to support Najib. They flocked to the opposition and he performed worse than Abdullah in the 13th General Election.

16. The Malays too did not support Najib. Selangor after he headed UMNO did worse than 2008. Malays only voted for BN because they feared Anwar would appoint Kit Siang as DPM.

17. Through all these I continued to support Najib. On the few occasions I met him, I told him his strategy was wrong but my views were ignored. I said before the 2013 elections that if he did worse than Abdullah he should resign. I had fully expected him to do better than Abdullah.

18. When he failed I told people that they should continue to support him. I was prepared, despite everything to see him lead the BN in the 14th GE.

19. But now with the controversies dogging him I am sure BN would lose if he leads it in the 14th GE.

20. There are many things about his personal behavior that I thought were not right. But I was prepared to overlook them, including he and his wife’s lavish lifestyle.

21. But when he cannot explain where billions of Ringgits have gone to and his involvement with questionable people in the management of 1MDB, I felt that he is not fit to be the Prime Minister of this country.

22. I will explain about how he lost billions of Ringgit in my next blog.

We don't want a Police State - Dr Mahathir

During last Friday's no-holds-barred session with our statesman Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad at his Al-Bukhary Foundation office in Jalan Perdana in Kuala Lumpur, he was asked what made him remove his gloves in the ongoing 'fight' against Najib Tun Razak the Prime Minister.

The almost 90-minute session with bloggers was not a closed door meet, as agreed by Dr Mahathir and his aides. It was an open session for bloggers, especially for those who disagreed with Dr M on his recent criticisms against Najib, to clear their conscience. 

Dr Mahathir's response, when asked if there was a possibility of him being together with Najib again, shocked a few who understood the matter.

It was, as Dr M describes it, the straw that broke the camel's back after more than four years.

Listen carefully to what Dr M says in this video.

Dr Mahathir - Soal Tak Jawab


SOAL TAK JAWAB

1. Saya sedar saya keseorangan. Tetapi jika saya juga berasa bertanggungjawab kepada rakyat salahkah. Apabila duit rakyat hilang dan ini tersembunyi dari rakyat salahkah kalau saya tanya.

2. Saya fikir jika diadakan soal jawab melalui T.V tentulah kerana ingin beritahu rakyat, bukan saya sahaja.

3. Hakikatnya wang 1MDB ada dimana masih tidak dijawab, kata Dato Sri Najib wang itu tidak ada di Cayman Islands. Tetapi dulu mengaku ada di Cayman Islands dan sudah dibawa balik.

4. Rakyat jadi lebih keliru. Jika tidak ada di Cayman Islands, ada dimana? Daripada mana datang wang yang separuh dibawa balik dahulu dan separuh dibawa balik untuk disimpan di Singapura.

5. Kenapa perlu simpan duit yang bukan dari Cayman Islands dan tidak diguna untuk bayar faedah dua billion. Kenapa kerajaan membuat standing credit sebanyak 900 million.

6. Berkenaan Altantuya, saya hanya bertanya siapa yang memberi arahan kepada Sirul yang dikena hukum bunuh. Saya tidak tuduh Najib. Biasanya anggota polis atau tentera tidak tembak mati sesiapa melainkan diserang atau di arah. Ini soal nyawa manusia. Kalau salah, bunuhlah Sirul. Tetapi kalau menjalankan tugas, menurut perintah tidak adil lah jika Sirul dibunuh.

7. Ramai orang datang jumpa saya. Jika keluarga Sirul nak jumpa, saya jumpa. Ini bukan soal lapan tahun dahulu. Ini soal nak gantung anak orang ini hari ini.

8. Rakyat tidak tanya. Tetapi ramai tanya saya. Saya tak dapat jawab. Saya tanya orang yang boleh jawab.

9. Banyaklah lagi soalan saya yang tidak dijawab. Sebaliknya, tindakan saya ini kononnya kerana jambatan bengkok tidak dibina.

10. Jika kerana jambatan bengkok yang saya marah, saya patut tuntut perletakan Najib sebelum PRU 13. Sebaliknya saya berkempen untuk kemenangan Najib. Kepimpinan Najib di Selangor tidak berkesan.

11. Sokongan dari kumpulan-kumpulan tertentu tidak bermakna mereka sokong 1MDB. Mereka takut. Ada yang tanya saya berkenaan dengan 1MDB dan minta saya buat sesuatu. Sekarang ada ugutan terhadap sesiapa yang tidak menyatakan sokongan kepada Najib.

12. Teringat saya kepada ribuan orang yang dibawa berhimpun dan disuruh angkat sepanduk “I love PM” dan menyanyi “I M 4 U”. Tetapi dalam PRU 13 kalah.

Amaran terakhir buat UMNO


Ramai juga ahli dan pemimpin UMNO yang setia secara buta tuli kepada pemimpin. Saya juga setia tetapi kesetiaan saya ialah kepada parti dan orang Melayu yang diwakili olehnya. Bukanlah mudah bagi saya menulis blog ini. Tetapi demi bangsa dan Negara saya terpaksa dedah semua ini. - Dr Mahathir


UMNO dan PRU 14

1. Ramalan oleh masyarakat sekarang ialah UMNO dan BN akan kalah Pilihanraya Umum ke-14 kerana terlalu banyak tuduhan yang dibuat terhadap Najib yang tidak dijawab olehnya.
2. Ia bermula dengan kes pembunuhan Altantuya, wanita Mongolia yang terlibat dengan skandal pembelian kapal selam.
3. Dua orang anggota polis dituduh menembak mati wanita berkenaan, dibicara, didapati bersalah, kemudian didapati tidak bersalah dan dibebaskan. Kemudian dibicara semula dan dikena hukum bunuh.
4. Seorang daripada mereka berada dalam tahanan tetapi Sirul seorang lagi berada di Australia. Dia membuat kenyataan bahawa dia diarah untuk membunuh.
5. Rakyat tertanya-tanya siapa yang memberi arahan. Sebagai pengawal peribadi Dato Sri Najib, dakwaan Sirul perlu disiasat untuk menentukan siapa yang memberi arahan. Tetapi selain daripada Najib berkata Sirul “merepet”, tidak ada siasatan yang dibuat. Ini adalah nyawa manusia. Amatlah zalim jika Sirul dibunuh kerana menjalankan arahan.
6. Kemudian kes 1MDB. Tuduhan penyelewengan dalam urusan wang berbillion Ringgit oleh Jho Low telah dibuat dengan bukti-bukti yang jelas. Tuduhan ini tidak dijawab selain dari berkata ia adalah pembohongan.
7. Kononnya aset 1MDB berjumlah 52 billion sedangkan hutang hanya 42 billion. Aset tidak jadi keuntungan sebelum dijual (dicairkan). Kenapa untuk membayar faedah sebanyak 2 billion pun terpaksa hutang dari Ananda Krishnan. Kalau 1MDB tidak rugi kenapa terpaksa hutang. Kenapa wang Kerajaan sebanyak 1 billion diberi kepada 1MDB setelah hutang dibayar?
8. Kononnya wang yang disimpan di Cayman Island sudah dibawa balik. Tetapi separuh disimpan dalam bank Swiss (BSI) di Singapura. Di mana pergi separuh lagi dari 6 billion? Kenapa wang ini tidak diguna untuk bayar faedah 2 billion.
9. Kononnya disimpan di Singapura kerana Bank Negara akan menyoal simpanan lebih dari 50 juta. Jikalau duit itu duit kita yang hanya disimpan di Cayman, apa masalahnya menjelaskan kepada Bank Negara punca wang itu. Lagi pun duit ini dimiliki oleh 1MDB yang dikuasai penuh oleh Perdana Menteri yang juga Menteri Kewangan.
10. Soalan-soalan lain berkenaan 1MDB tidak dijawab selain daripada berkata asetnya besar. Soal harga tanah Kerajaan yang dibeli oleh 1MDB tidak dijelas. Sudah tentu jika dibeli dengan harga yang murah dan dinaik nilai berkali ganda, aset ini menjadi besar. Tetapi Kerajaan rugi banyak dengan tanah miliknya dijual dengan harga yang tidak mencermin harga pasaran.
11. US$700 juta dibayar kepada Petro Saudi untuk apa? Sudahkah ditentukan Petro Saudi memiliki konsesi kawasan minyak dan gas di Argentina dan Turkmenistan sebelum membayar wang yang begitu banyak.
12. Jho Low dilapor dalam New York Times, London Times dan Sarawak Report terlibat dalam pengurusan berbillion Ringgit duit 1MDB. Siapa dianya Jho Low yang begitu dipercayai oleh Dato Sri Najib. Pegawai Malaysia yang dilantik mengurus dana 1MDB mengaku mereka diarah oleh Jho Low yang mendakwa ia mendapat kepercayaan penuh dan arahan dari Dato Sri Najib.
13. Gambar-gambar Jho Low dan kelakuannya, umurnya yang amat muda serta cara hidupnya tidak menggambarkan peribadi yang menyakinkan orang ramai. Tetapi dia dilapur membeli rumah di New York dan Hollywood beratus juta Ringgit. Kemudian rumah-rumah ini dijual kepada anak tiri Najib dengan harga ratusan juta Ringgit bagi setiap satu kerana kononnya Jho Low telah jumpa rumah yang lebih indah di Hollywood yang harganya lebih tinggi.
14. Dari mana datangnya duit beratus juta kepada Riza Aziz tidak dapat dijelas. Keluarga Tun Razak termasuk Najib menafikan duit ini adalah dari keluarga. Pelaburan ratusan juta dalam filem “Wolf of Wall Street” oleh Riza datang dari mana?
15. Dan banyaklah lagi tuduhan dan soalan terhadap 1MDB yang ditubuh oleh Dato Sri Najib dan dikuasai sepenuh olehnya sebagai penasihat yang tidak dijelas dan dijawab selain dari menafi dan mendakwa semuanya bohong belaka. Laporan-laporan dalam akhbar di New York dan London amat memalukan negara.
16. Sementara itu, walaupun Kerajaan menghadapi kekurangan wang yang besar dan terpaksa hutang, Dato Sri Najib sebagai Perdana Menteri membeli sebuah lagi pesawat mewah. Umum mengetahui pesawat ACJ319 yang sedia ada diguna bukan sahaja untuk tugas rasmi tetapi sebagai kenderaan peribadi untuk Dato Sri dan Datin Sri.
17. Dalam keadaan ekonomi tidak menentu, dalam keadaan rakyat terpaksa bayar cukai yang lebih tinggi, dalam keadaan nilai Ringgit yang menurun teruk, dalam keadaan kos sara hidup meningkat dan rakyat dilanda banjir dan kehilangan ratusan juta Ringgit, Kerajaan membazirkan wang ratusan juta untuk pesawat mewah walaupun sudah ada pesawat-pesawat milik Kerajaan.
18. Cara pembelian tidak dapat menyembunyi bahawa akhirnya Kerajaan terpaksa menanggung beban pembelian ini. Jika syarikat bukan Kerajaan yang secara rasmi membeli, bayaran melalui lease (sewa) lebih tinggi daripada belian secara langsung kerana terpaksa memberi keuntungan kepada pemilik dan faedah yang dimasukkan.
19. Selain daripada ini dasar-dasar pemerintahan Dato Sri Najib terhad kepada pemberian wang percuma, menimbul kemarahan orang Melayu dengan mengenepikan Dasar Ekonomi Baru kerana ingin mendapat sokongan orang Cina. Namun penolakan BN dalam PRU 13 membuktikan orang Cina tolak pemerintahan Najib.
20. Sesungguhnya rakyat, baik Melayu, Cina, India atau suku kaum Sabah dan Sarawak sudah tidak percaya lagi kepada Dato Sri Najib. Ahli UMNO dan pemimpinnya perlu sedar bahawa UMNO dan dengan itu BN akan kalah jika Dato Sri Najib memimpin UMNO hingga PRU 14. Apabila UMNO kalah, orang Melayu akan kutuk kepimpinan yang menjadikan parti keramat ini begitu lemah sehingga ditolak oleh bangsa Melayu sendiri. Sekali UMNO kalah, ia tidak akan dapat dipulih semula.
21. Ramai juga ahli dan pemimpin UMNO yang setia secara buta tuli kepada pemimpin. Saya juga setia tetapi kesetiaan saya ialah kepada parti dan orang Melayu yang diwakili olehnya. Bukanlah mudah bagi saya menulis blog ini. Tetapi demi bangsa dan Negara saya terpaksa dedah semua ini.
22. Saya belum nyanyok walaupun umur hampir 90 tahun. Sesiapa yang berkata saya nyanyok sebenarnya menipu diri.
23. Melayu hanya akan selamat jika bersikap bangsa lebih utama daripada diri sendiri.

p/s Tulisan terbaru Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad ini sengaja saya copy-paste di-sini kerana sebelum ini terdapat beberapa usaha serangan cyber ke-atas blog Dr Mahathir serta blog-blog lain yang mengutarakan kebenaran. 

Setelah membaca penulisan terbaru Dr M ini saya rasa tidak menjadi satu kesalahan ataupun HASUTAN jika rakyat negara ini, tanpa mengira kaum, agama atau pegangan politik, mendesak agar Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak meletakkan jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri dengan kadar segera.

Desakan ini adalah demi masa depan negara tercinta ini dan bukan-nya atas apa-apa sebab lain.

Cabinet discussed, questioned and surprised with 1MDB?

This is indeed a very refreshing development that would assure the people's confidence and trust in the Government.

A highly placed source revealed early this morning that the Malaysian cabinet which sat for its weekly meeting yesterday had touched on all those negative news coming out of 1MDB and personalities linked to the Government owned company.

A senior minister, I was told, had raised the issue and pointed that none of the members of the cabinet were able to give a clear explanation as to what 1MDB really stood for and the controversies revolving around the sovereign wealth fund's wheelings and dealings.

Another source confirmed that the 'very senior' cabinet member was not alone as a few others had also openly questioned the very need for 1MDB to exist and its benefits to the nation. Some cabinet members were also irked that no one could provide holistic satisfactory explanation to critics.

At least two cabinet members had brought former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's queries on 1MDB to the cabinet's attention.

It is understood that someone in the cabinet also quipped that '1MDB seems to be taking everybody, including this cabinet, on a ride'. 

The Malaysian Cabinet meeting yesterday was chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak  is away on an official trip to South Korea. It was understood that the PM would be on a long holiday after the Korea trip.

Najib has come under fire for the dubious wheelings and dealing of 1MDB for more than a year now but the 1MDB Chairman of Board of Advisors has mainly refused to answer or provide satisfactory explanations to his critics who include Dr Mahathir and former Finance Minister Tun Daim Zainuddin.

p/s Could this sudden sense of realisation in the cabinet be due to talk that some top banks have sought Bank Negara's intervention to stop the 1MDB rot?
