UMNO’s Attack On Soft Targets Like Christians, Chinese, S. Ambiga, DAP And Even Voters Of DAP Is A Desperate Attempt (en/bm/cn)

UMNO’s Attack On Soft Targets Like Christians, Chinese, S. Ambiga, DAP And Even Voters Of DAP Is A Desperate Attempt To Distract Attention From UMNO’s Failure To Address The Hard Targets Of Corruption, Cronyism And Abuse Of Power.

Malaysian parents would be disgusted at the coarse language used by UMNO leaders in the UMNO Youth General Assembly that not only reflects UMNO’s mindset as devoid of policy ideas but filled with lies, hatred, enmity and fear. Penang Umno Youth chief Shaik Hussein Mydin (left) was the most vocal in name calling describing PAS and PKR had became bapok (soft) and pondan (transvestites), even labelling all voters of DAP as bangsat(bastard).

Utusan Awal Muharam

Mencadangkan Menaikkan Bayaran Kepada RM200 Dan Bukan RM100 One-Off Untuk Program Anak Emas Untuk Semua Bayi Kelahiran Pulau Pinang Mulai 1 Januari 2011.

Kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang ingin mengucapkan Salam Maal Hijrah kepada semua umat Islam yang meraikan 1 Muharram 1433H. Sempena perayaan Awal Muharam 1433H, saya akan mencadangkan kepada mesyuarat EXCO pada minggu depan agar bayaran program anak emas Pulau Pinang dinaikkan kepada RM 200 one-off daripada bayaran asal RM 100.

Kejayaan Program Penghargaan Warga Emas RM 100 setiap tahun dan RM 1,000 “one-off” urusan jenazah kepada si waris demi mengenang jasa bakti sumbangan warganegara yang melebihi 60 tahun kepada pembangunan negeri, telah menyebabkan beberapa pihak mencadangkan bahawa kerajaan negeri menimbang pula golongan yang baru lahir.

Muhyiddin’s Proud Defence Of UMNO’s Racist Agenda And He Is Malay First And Malaysian Second Only Proves That 1Malaysia Is An Empty Slogan Designed To Win Votes And Rapidly Discarded After The Next General Elections.

UMNO Deputy President Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s proud defence of UMO’s racist agenda and that he is Malay First and Malaysian second only proves that 1Malaysia is an empty slogan designed to win votes and rapidly discarded after the next general elections. What is surprising is that Muhyiddin does not consider illogical or inconsistent with pursuing a strictly racial Malay agenda with the agenda of other non-Malay Malaysians.

Muhyiddin even pursues the perverse logic that DAP leaders such as Lim Kit Siang and myself are Chinese chauvinists even though DAP has fought for all Malaysians and our membership open to all including Malays, Indians Ibans and Kadazans. Muhyiddin conveniently ignores the fact that I was imprisoned and lost my parliamentary seat for defending an underaged Malay rape victim who was detained instead of her rapists.

DAP is no threat to Malays. Only UMNO is a threat to Malays and Malaysians with its open acceptance and defence of repressive violation of basic human rights, corruption and abuse of power.

How Can Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin Be So Cruel As To Continue To Repeat The Lies By UMNO Blogs Against My 16 Year Old Son (en/cn)

How Can Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin Be So Cruel As To Continue To Repeat The Lies By UMNO Blogs Against My 16 Year Old Son And Question Whether My Son Is Innocent Of Lies Of Sexual Misconduct When The Lady “Victim” Had Asserted That She Had Not Even Met Me Or My Son And The Penang Education Director Had Declared The Allegations Were Not True.

I am appalled and disgusted by Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s remarks that my mere denial of sexual harassment claims against my 16-year old son was inadequate. Instead, Muhyiddin says that “if the Penang chief minister thinks it is important to correct the information, then he has to come up with a strong statement.”

What more strong statement is required from me when I had condemned these barbaric lies as totally unacceptable, inhumane; Continue reading ‘How Can Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin Be So Cruel As To Continue To Repeat The Lies By UMNO Blogs Against My 16 Year Old Son (en/cn)’

DAP confirms that a PR meeting comprising of DAP, PKR and PAS top leaders were held in DAP Headquarters in the evening of 10 October 2011(en/cn).

The PR meeting reaffirmed the common policy stand of the three parties as contained in the PR Common Policy Framework 2009, Buku Jingga 2010 and PR Joint Statement 28th September 2011 that hudud is not the common agenda of PR for the forthcoming general election, which will also be the policy basis of PR after the next general election. Any change of policy can only be reached by common consensus with the agreement of all the three parties.

The Enakmen Kanun Jenayah Syariah II Negeri Kelantan (1993) was discussed at the meeting. At the meeting, DAP stressed the party’s consistent stand in not agreeing with the hudud law and explained that the hudud law is not in line with the Federal Constitution. The meeting concluded with both DAP and PAS agreeing to disagree on the hudud law.

Perutusan Lim Guan Eng Sempena Hari Merdeka

Selamat Hari Raya dan Hari Merdeka

Only When We Are Malaysian First Then Can We Build A Future For Our Young And Our Young For The Future.

2011 Merdeka Message By DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng In Kuala Lumpur On 30.8.2011.

We have achieved some economic progress since our beloved first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman, thundered the glorious word Merdeka seven times in Stadium Merdeka in 1957. But as much progress as we have made, one cannot help but think of the lost opportunities and the many areas where we have regressed.

The time has come for Malaysians to examine our own shortcomings objectively, abandon failed policies to adopt new ones that allow us to build the future for our young as well as build our young for the future. Much as we can build the necessary physical and digital infrastructure to world-class standards, we must also equip our young with the tools and skill sets to face the challenges of globalization.

Barisan Nasional and its UMNO cohorts seem hell-bent on insulting all Malaysians (en/bm/cn)

Barisan Nasional and its UMNO cohorts seem hell-bent on insulting all Malaysians by continually making racist and disrespectful statements.

Today, all DAP assemblymen have been suspended from the Malacca State Assembly for standing their ground in demanding Malacca Chief Minister Ali Rustam retract his allegations that gambling is part of Chinese culture. The suspension of Khoo Poay Tiong (Ayer Keroh), Betty Chew (Kota Laksamana), Lim Jack Wong (Bachang) and Tey Kok Kiew (Bandar Hilir) follows the suspension of Goh Leong San (Kesidang) yesterday over the same reason.

Pemotongan subsidi barangan keperluan harian membebankan rakyat (BM/BC)

Kenyataan YAB Lim Guan Eng, Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang merangkap Ahli Parlimen Kawasan Bagan dan Setiausaha Agung DAP pada 29 Jun 2011 di Komtar, George Town, Pulau Pinang

Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang merangkap Ahli Parlimen Bagan Y.A.B. Lim Guan Eng terkejut apabila mengetahui Kerajaan Persekutuan mengenakan pemotongan subsidi barangan keperluan harian yang membebankan rakyat tetapi masih kekalkan subsidi tinggi bagi gas petroluem cecair, diesel dan petrol yang menguntungkan Penjana Tenaga Bebas (IPP).

Mengikut jawapan yang diberikan oleh Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Kewangan, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak di Dewan Rakyat baru-baru ini, subsidi kerajaan bagi barangan keperluan harian seperti padi, beras, gula dan tepung hanya 10% daripada subsidi yang diberikan kepada gas petroluem cecair, diesel dan petrol.

What Is The Extraordinary Investment For A Global Center From An American Company Which Dr Koh Tsu Koon Claimed On 16 May 2011 That He Had A Role To Play In Bringing To Penang? (En/Bm/Cn)

Press Statement By Penang Chief Minister And DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng In Komtar, George Town & Kuala Lumpur On 24 June 2011.

What Is The Extraordinary Investment For A Global Center From An American Company Which Dr Koh Tsu Koon Claimed On 16 May 2011 That He Had A Role To Play In Bringing To Penang?

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon should prove that he has the courage to own up to his own mistake of a false investment announcement by an American company instead of trying to cover up his failure with another lie. Dr Koh must fully account to Malaysians what is the extraordinary investment for a global center from an American company which he claimed on 16 May 2011 that he had a role to play in bringing to Penang.

Dr Koh claims that he had never announced that Motorola was investing RM4 billion in Penang. However Koh is not being honest. Reports in all main newspapers, such as the Star and the Sun on 17 May 2011 had reported Koh as saying that the Prime Minister will announce an extraordinary investment to set up a global center by a United States firm during his visit to the US.
