Press Statement by Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng In Kuala Lumpur on 14.5.2012

Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop And UMNO No Longer Needs Non-Malay Votes By Adopting Perkasa “Ketuanan Melayu” Race Card With Threats And Fears That Malaysia Will Revert To 1511 If BN Loses The 13th General Elections.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop is no different from Perkasa by playing the “Ketuanan Melayu” race card with threats and fears that Malaysia will revert to 1511 if BN loses the 13th general elections. 1511 was the year that the Melaka Sultanate was successfully invaded by the Portuguese, the start of foreign colonisation of Malaya.

The Prime Minister Must Give A Full Explanation In the Public Interest Wether KGNS Land Grab Is Another “Piratisation” Scheme Where BN’s 1Malaysia Involves Robbing The Public Of Their Land Regardless Whether It Is Malay,Chinese, Indian, Iban, Kadazan Or Orang Asli Land.(en/bm/cn)

Reports yesterday indicated that billionaire industrialist Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary and Sunway Bhd have submitted a proposal to acquire 330 acres of prime real estate controlled by Kelab Golf Negara Subang (KGNS), which includes two 18-hole golf courses with a commercial value estimated at over RM 5 billion. It is learnt that Perspective Lane (M) Sdn Bhd, a private investment vehicle controlled by Syed Mokhtar, and Sunway City Sdn Bhd, had submitted a plan late last year to the Federal government.

Even though KGNS president Tan Sri Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas has denied that Syed Moktar is involved, an application appears to be submitted by some parties to acquire the 330 acres land site. To verify whether these reports are true, the Prime Minister needs to give a full explanation to uphold accountability in the interests of the public as well as the club members. Once again, it would appear that not only is a multi-billion ringgit privatisation deal being conducted without open competitive tenders, but it also appears to be another potential land grab similar to what is happening with the MRT project on heritage areas in Kuala Lumpur.

The Prime Minister Should Scrap 1Care for 1Malaysia Proposal To Ensure That the Public Good Of Healthcare Services Is Not Exploited So That The losses Are Socialized Whereas The Profits Are Privatised.(en/cn)

The provision of public health care in Malaysia need not be completely overhauled but merely revamped to improve it towards excellence. The DAP believes ensuring the proper allocation of funds without any leakages or hanky panky can not only ensure the public’s right to provision of a standard health care but also improve public health delivery.

The DAP calls for the Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Minister to intervene and scrap 1Care for 1Malaysia proposal following the failure of of Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, to fully examine the adverse consequences of this compulsory Health Insurance scheme. In replacement, the Ministry of Health should conduct a thorough public consultation process involving key stakeholders to ensure that the provision of basic healthcare as a public good and human right is protected and not auctioned off so that well connected individuals and companies can profit from the people.

Urge BN And UMNO Leaders To Throw Your Lies And Hate At Me But Please Leave My School-going Children Alone! (en/cn)

My family and I are upset at the statement made by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi in Sibu yesterday, dragging my daughter into his latest spin that the National Service (NS) training programme is now widely accepted and trusted by parents for the positive effect it has on their children. Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid claimed that both my father and me had seen how my daughter had changed for the better after attending the programme in Balik Pulau NS camp in Penang.

This is untrue. My daughter is a good kid and is the same before and after joining the NS Camp. Both my father and I had never told the Defence Minister as claimed by him and neither had we thanked him for it.

Diving With The Scorpene Submarine KD Tun Abdul Razak Does Not Dispute The Fact That The Submarine Could Not Dive Upon Delivery (en/bm/cn)


Diving With The Scorpene Submarine KD Tun Abdul Razak 21 Months After Challenge Was Issued By Datuk Seri Zahid Hamidi Does Not Dispute The Fact That The Submarine Could Not Dive Upon Delivery Nor Whether The Purchase Price Tag Of RM3.68 Billion For 2 Submarines And RM534 Million Service Contract Or “Commission” Was Value For Money.

Diving with the Scorpene submarine KD Tun Abdul Razak 21 months after challenge was issued by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Zahid Hamidi does not dispute the fact that the submarine could not dive upon delivery nor whether it was value for money for the purchase price tag of RM3.68 billion for two submarines.

However these 2 points of waiting 21 months and the necessity for such a high price tag were not highlighted by the BN mainstream media from Utusan Malaysia to Bernama which instead shamelessly focused on my so-called admission justifying the purchase of the two expensive submarines. Malaysians should not trust such BN media reports which are distorted, twisted and corrupted into outright lies to help BN face the coming general elections.

Jemputan DS Zahid Hamidi tidak dapat menyembunyikan hakikat bahawa kapal selam itu tidak dapat menyelam (BM/BI/BC)

Jemputan Menteri Pertahanan Datuk Seri Zahid Haidi kepada saya untuk menyelam dalam kapal selam kelas Scorpene KD Tun Razak 21 bulan selepas saya menerima cabarannya tidak dapat menyembunyikan hakikat bahawa kapal selam itu tidak dapat menyelam semasa penyerahannya kepada TLDM dan juga tidak menjawab soalan-soalan tentang kos pembelian sebanyak RM3.68 bilion dan kontrak perkhidmatan atau “komisyen” sebanyak RM534 juta.

Untuk membuktikan bahawa kapal selam yang dibeli itu berupaya menyelam, Zahid telah mencabar saya dalam sidang Parlimen 17 Mac 2010 untuk menyelam dalam kapal tersebut. Walaupun Zahid meyakinkan saya bahawa kecacatan mekanikal dalam kapal selam pertama negara kita telah pun dibetulkan, saya tetap berkeras meminta agar Kerajaan menukarkan kapal selam itu dengan sebuah lagi yang baru. Walau bagaimanapun, Zahid menolak cadangan saya dan mencabar saya untuk menyelam dalam kapal selam tersebut.
