人民现在要什麽?



能带领人民渡过经济難關的政府!

条件就是快樂的人民及政治穩定.

在大環境不樂观的情况下,朝野政党必须抛下成见,为人民的利益而稍为牺牲遷就.

否则,人民生活将会每况愈下,最后导致社会的不穩定;国家就会滅亡.

人民的收入及支出平衡就是最基本的政治目标.

我国当務之際,除了调动公幣疏困外,首要迫切行动該是取消过時的种族政策.

把人民一分为三皆为削弱国家的资源及团结的不利政策.

如果我国要在第一時间擺脱经济困境,請把人民重新歸纳为一吧!

Should Government Subsidise These Electric Scooters?




Fossil fuels are getting scarce and environment becomes deteriorating each days, while economy is dive-nosing; the introduction of the electric scooters are just timely and sensible.

I'm referring to a news report published today in The Star Online that warrants a closer look from any ones who are concerning the whole affairs of a sustainable environment and of course, economy.

I think the government should seriously considering a subsidy for the scooter as this is strategically important for our country's future, especially in the State of Sabah where eco-tourism is the focus of the tourism industry.

In order to have significant achievement, certain policy must change in gradual stages / steps to anticipate the move towards greener society such as reducing/limiting car access to the city centre, higher taxes & road taxes on petrol-based vehicles etc.

The Stimulus package introduced by the government should be playing a role in encouraging people switching to sustainable energy transportation.

The public should consider this move as "Money Wise Spent".

Electric scooters on our roads soon

KUALA LUMPUR: How does one cruise on the road without having to worry about petrol prices? With an electric scooter or bicycle, of course.

Better yet, these machines are completely pollution-free. Platinum Logistics Corp Sdn Bhd managing director Albakri Ali said all it takes is a three-point power plug to charge the lead acid battery of the scooter.

PSD Scholarship Based On Merit And Household Income?



I'm delighted to hear that the proposal led by MCA has the "support" from Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Mohd Sidek Hassan which is published in The Star Online Friday February 13, 2009:-


Merit, income criteria for PSD scholarship
By ROYCE CHEAH

SERDANG: Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Mohd Sidek Hassan has agreed that the Public Service Department scholarship should be awarded based only on merit and household income, after discussions with MCA leaders and community heads.

MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat said consensus was reached at a recent meeting and that the idea would be brought to the Cabinet for further discussion.

The other leaders involved in the move were from the Indian and Sabah and Sarawak ethnic communities.



Questions are:-

Is this the trend leading towards a just and fair society in Malaysia?
Is it just something put up ahead of the by-polls to be held soon in Perak and Kedah?
Is it real?

What ever it is, this is a positive act and the right attitude from the government, especially the civil service, that the country now highly depends on.

Apart from the approval from the cabinet, the effectiveness in discharging their (PSD especially) duties determines the success or failure of implementing the "new policy". In view of the economy outlook, they should expedite the delivery system the fastest possible way, and reduce all the unnecessary red tapes.

The PSD must also be impartial or seen impartial in its handling.

No ones should be deprived of the opportunity of further education because of financial reason.

The next thing from the government is on making sure they (the students) are able to find jobs upon their graduation. The government and the society should "exploit" their talents and new skills in full, and not letting the asset turns to waste.
This is a matter of sustainable economy issue which is often ignored and neglected by the administrator.

Let's hope that the proposal is quickly adopted in full by the coming cabinet meeting.

Would banning Karpal from entering Perak improves respect for the Sultan?

My view on the following piece of news published in The Star Online today:-

"Ban Karpal from entering Perak"
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/2/12/nation/20090212154840&sec=nation

I don't think the above call by PKDK president Datuk Tengku Zainol Rashid Tengku Yahya to ban Karpal from entering the state could change the situation. On the contrary, it may create more unnecessary misunderstandings and negative impressions towards our constitution as well as our maturity in politic.

It may not be appropriate for the istana to issue any statement for the infamous decision made on events happened recently, however,people has the right to express themselves and Karpal, being an outspoken politician, should be given the chance to explain his action later when things are settled down.

It's definitely inappropriate for any party to stir up issues where "harsh" and inappropriate actions can only create more resentments, suspicions and unnecessary speculations.

If Karpal were "wrong", there are constitutions and laws that would put him to the appropriate punishments he deserves. After all, Karpal has been a senior lawyer and as an elected representative for years whom should know the limit.

If the call by PKDK president is materialized, a lot of the citizens may not be allowed to enter the state of Perak, not mentioning the problems on setting up checkpoints at all the major entry points in the state for the purpose.

The ruler is above politic and free from politic; in due respect, no political parties should involve the ruler in any way that could tarnish their image and integrity.

Sabah Needs More Cares From Federal



I read with regrets from the following Bernama News this morning:-

TAWAU, Feb 11 (Bernama) -- Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said students who have no birth certificates can still enrol at secondary schools provided one of the parents are Malaysian citizens.
http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newsgeneral.php?id=389027

The announcement should at least solved some of the woes of the Sabahan on educational aspect but what about other areas such as when visiting health services, welfare department, and so on.


"Hishammuddin said delay by the National Registration Department (NRD) to issue birth certificates should not be used as an excuse by schools to reject the students."

"The NRD will take some time to issue the birth certificates and this will pose a problem to the students when applying to enrol at schools," he added."


Well, I hope that Syed Hamid, the minister of Home Affairs is listening and really pressing his ministry and the NRD to work faster as the livelihood of these people are at stake because of their "blur" status. Be they granted citizenship or not, the process period must not be delayed unreasonably so as to affect their life.

The undetermined figure of actual citizens (census)in the state would also cause incorrect economic and government services planning.

The performance of the NRD has been poor judging from the impression given by the general public who has to deal with the department on citizenship or status application.

BN government can solve all the problems of the people if and only if the man-in-charge has the caring "heart" or sincerity. Sabahan will definitely appreciate for those who has been helping the state.

強制種族比例聘公僕有感



針对人資部建議強制種族比例聘公僕及山打根中華商會所作出的建议及反应,国陣政府应該从善如流,即刻加以落实,以緊密的監督,確保有誠意的贯徹促使成功.

每每听到有關政府人力招聘部门主任於報章或媒体透露似是而非的理由说"华人子弟对公務员职位不屑一顧,而非政府行政机构不要招收";其实這样的說法根本是子虚乌有.讲出及那麽容易就接受如此的"理由"足見国陣领袖及行政机构同人等嚴重缺乏親身体驗和印證事情的真伪.

如没記錯,马华同志似乎在每年的中央代表大会都有提刭這件心願,奈何"伙伴"每每选擇性不想配合才有今天的窘境.

如果不是徵聘过程不公,调职升迁不平,华人怎么会不加入公務员的行列呢?

国陣政府如能廢除"种族""宗教"等的个人资料,辅以个人的辦事能力來作为聘用,升迁,或赏罰分明就能一劳永逸解决困扰各社群,尤其是华社,的公務员隱憂和困境.

无可否認,华人公務员的比例如能维持30%以上將会提升公務员整体素质,衹要给予机会,肯定会改造政府部门的效率和服務水平.华人传统文化与美德在朔造优秀公務员上居功至偉.各民族应该常在-起做事,互相学习中暸解各方的文化之長与短,国家服務才能有所突破.

好的公務员系统就是等於良好的政府交货系统(Delivery System),整个国家的競爭力及收入也会因应而影响深远.

国陣真的能贯徹全民平等的政策吗?

違約与民主



沙巴民主行動黨署理主席黃仕平指出,市政廳收回已批准該黨於年初三租用達邁民衆大會堂舉辦農曆新年門戶開放慶典,以及拆掉原本已批准該黨從一月廿日至二月十日(元宵節)在和生園及億達豎立的賀歲廣告牌的做法已違約。請參阅华僑日報(2009-Feb-03):-
http://ocdn.founder.net.my/news.php?newsid=36041

曾獲准租用場地辦新春慶典,及和生園億達豎立的两面賀歲廣告牌都遭倉促腰斬拆除,火箭將因此起訴市政廳違約一事,誰是誰非? 暫時也祗能听行动党的一面之詞.因为据新闻传出后,当記者面询市長有關事件時,却不欲对此事置评,也許内有乾坤,抑或有苦衷?

根据当日(年初三)经过該場地,空无一人,並无政府或任何团体使用,難道市政廳宁可有錢不要赚?

依我看,就算有小字列明说市政廳有权"違約"而取消是项租借,這样不講信用的行动实属不智;除非政府要同時间无可避免徵用该場地,將另当别論,否则就有政治報復或嫉妒小氣之嫌.

亞庇的国会议员來自民主行動黨. 代表国陣政府管理亞庇市的市政廳竟然甘冒不尊敬的大險与大部份的人民对立是成孰的决定吗? 政治常識何在? 值得一问的有趣问题是:是誰下的命令? 是市政廳,地政部,州政府,或联邦政府?

我相信人民会对此种不民主的表现産生负面評价而对国陣不利.当年人民党打压人民而莫名其妙的倒台至今曆曆在目,前車之錾,不可掉以輕心哦!


国陣要收復失地先要有誠意地赢取民心,而公正清廉,是非分明的行动正是民心所願矣! 国陣自重!
