Tengku Razaleigh Answers to Government Advertisement last Sunday

Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, The Edge
I see the Ministry of Information has taken out full page advertisements in the major Malay newspapers to argue that Kelantan has no right to oil payments under the Petroleum Development Act because the oil resources in question lie outside the 3 nautical mile limit that delimits state versus federal jurisdictions. The advertisement fails to point out that almost all the oil found in Malaysia is located more than 3 nautical miles offshore, and Petronas has nevertheless been making oil payments to the states.
By the argument deployed in the advertisement, Terengganu, Sabah and Sarawak too are not entitled to the “cash payments” of 5% of profit oil (commonly and a little inaccurately referred to as “oil royalties”). Everything is at the arbitrary behest of the Federal Government.
Yet last year, according to its annual report, Petronas paid out RM6.2 billion in petroleum cash payments, with RM3 billion to Terengganu, RM2.3 billion to Sarawak and RM0.9 billion to Sabah. One wonders what basis this payment was made on since none of this was for petroleum found within 3 nautical miles offshore of these states.  The argument for depriving Kelantan of 5% cash payments on the basis of its petroleum resources being found beyond 3 nautical miles is an insult to the intelligence.
I have spoken and written at length on this issue and had been reluctant to say more on it. Moreover, as a member of the ruling party I am embarrassed to have to belabour elementary points against the government. This information campaign, whether through a leaflet campaign in the schools or through newspaper advertisements paid for with taxpayer money, implies either culpable stupidity or gross deceitfulness on the part of agents of the Federal Government. I had hoped to avoid that implication.
The government’s advertisement also exhumes a ten year old mis-quotation in a government newspaper to allege that I once denied that Terengganu had any right to the 5% cash payment. I said no such thing. If the government media is to be believed I also once converted to Christianity by wearing Kadazan headgear just in time to be exposed amidst a General Election campaign. Why does the government rely on a ten year old misquotation? Well, these days we have our own blogs.
In fact, as a BN backbencher at the time I opposed the Federal Government’s intervention to prevent Petronas from making oil payments to Terengganu and the move to channel those funds instead into “wang ihsan”. Tun Salleh Abbas and I offered ourselves as witnesses to the Terengganu state government in the suit it filed against the Federal government to recover those oil payments. Between the 2000 and 2009, RM15.8 billion was paid out through the legal black hole of wang ihsan, not to the rightful party as specified under the Petroleum Development Act, which is the state government’s consolidated fund, but to agencies more amenable to vested interests linked to the central government. The outcome of that spending is the Monsoon Cup, a Crystal Mosque in which it is impossible to pray, a leaking swimming pool, a collapsed bridge and a collapsed stadium. The people of Terengganu remain poor while Billions have been paid out in their name.

Is this the most creative way that we can create?

Source: Email

Many Friends in virtual groups (around the world), were commented with the question "Is this the most creative way that MALAY can do" even if they (the MALAY) really don't like Anwar Ibrahim? Uuhhh! Who are putting dirty mud on our face?

The answer is YES, WE ARE PUTTING IT ON OUR OWN FACE! By letting the malicious & dirty conspiracy/tactics mingled around on our AIR again and again this time...

Next when we (the MALAY) traveling out of the sea, don't ever ever mention that we are the MALAY... IT'S REALLY BIG ASHAMED...  Perhaps, just say we are MUSLIM without voice out from where... ;-)

Just because of one GREEDY but STUPID young man, with a group of high-profile 'people' then our dignity was now tarnished! Can you imagine what happen to our brother,sister or may be family who are currently staying out of country? Oh shit, we had put the mud on their's too...

How the world know the MALAY... the same "unfinished" story headed on their news  since last 10-12 years...
1. Canadian Press
2. Channel News Asia
3. BBC News
4. REUTERS
5. Telegraph UK

So my wish to all my brothers and sisters, wake up..wake up... Are we still too fool to be fooled again...and again...and again... or may be we are too 'clean' so then we are OK with dirty & 'juicy' fake story now!.... Last but not least.. Wake up.. Wake up...

Analisis Kes Fitnah II Anwar Ibrahim

Oleh Peguam dan MP Subang Jaya Sivarasa Rasiah

Hanya sebelas tahun semenjak Anwar Ibrahim dipecat dari jawatan timbalan perdana menteri, beliau menerima tamparan dengan dakwaan liwat dan seolah-olahnya tuduhan rasuah (penyelewengan kuasa). Beliau berdepan dengan dua perbicaraan yang dikutuk seluruh dunia sebagai perbicaraan tidak adil dan bermotivasikan kepentingan politik pihak tertentu.

Hasilnya beliau menghabiskan enam tahun dalam tahanan di Penjara Sungai Buloh, dikurung bersendirian selama pemenjaraan hanya dibenarkan  bertemu dengan ahli keluarga dan para peguam sahaja.

Akhirnya bekas Perdana Menteri Dr. Mahathir Mohamad mendapat hukuman setimpal dengan berat hati dipaksa bersara pada bulan Oktober 2003. Kemudiannya Anwar dibebas dan dilepaskan pada 2 haribulan September 2004 pada tahap terakhir rayuannya di mahkamah mengubah penghakiman kes liwatnya.

Sekarang mimpi ngeri itu bermula lagi. Pada 16 Julai 2008, Anwar ditangkap atas tuduhan kes liwat yang baru, selepas suatu laporan polis dibuat oleh Saiful Bukhari, pembantu berpangkat rendah dalam pejabatnya pada 28 Jun 2008.

Anwar berkata tuduhan ini, sekali lagi bermotifkan politik, sebagai cubaan terbaru untuk menghalang kerjaya politiknya yang kembali bangkit mendadak kegemilangannya. Ramai orang di dalam dan di luar negara bersetuju dengan penilaian ini.

Kes terbaru ini hanyalah ulang tayang skrip lama dengan para pelakon yang baru - skrip sekarang ini juga menampilkan episod-episod campurtangan politik, kecurangan dan penyelewengan para pegawai di pejabat Peguam Negara dan pihak polis, penipuan bukti-bukti yang muncul daripada suatu konspirasi politik untuk menghentikan kerjaya cemerlang politik Anwar.

Kes hairan yang benar-benar pelik

Terdapat banyak fakta terhadap dakwaan yang dibuat Saiful dan tindak tanduknya yang sudahpun berada dalam pengetahuan orang ramai. Fakta-fakta ini bercakap dengan sendirinya. Secepatnya ia menunjukkan betapa tidak kukuhnya kes yang direka-reka ini, selain bertujuan menjatuhkan Anwar.

Saiful mendakwa dalam laporan polisnya bertarikh 28 June 2008 di Hospital Kuala Lumpur ("HKL") yang dia diliwat Anwar pada tengahari Khamis 26 Jun 2008 di sebuah kondominium di Bukit Damansara. Saiful bercerita kepada pihak polis dalam kenyataannya yang mendakwa dia telah diserang paksa sebanyak 8 ke 9 kali tanpa kerelaan hatinya oleh Anwar sepanjang dua bulan yang berlalu itu.
