Press Statement By DAP Secretary-General And MP For Bagan Lim Guan Eng In Kuala Lumpur On 4.6.2013.<\/p>\n
Malaysia should not follow the Singaporean model to regulate online portals because this violates the Malaysia MSC Bill of Guarantees that there will be no internet censorship. DAP regrets that newly-minted Communications and Multimedia Minister Ahmad Shabery Cheek is starting off his tenure by breaking BN\u2019s earliest promise of not censoring the internet in wanting to regulate online portals. Where is BN\u2019s \u201cJanji ditepati\u201d?<\/p>\n
Ahmad Shabery should be granting freedom to the media and the press instead of trying to further choke off any limited space of press freedom found in the internet. Why should Malaysia follow Singapore in regulating online portals when Singapore performed worse than Malaysia in press freedom?<\/p>\n
According to Reporters Without Borders, Malaysia fell 23 places from 2012 to 145th this year in the 2013 Press Freedom Index because \u201caccess to information is becoming more and more limited\u201d. Reporters Without Borders said that Malaysia\u2019s \u201csorry record\u201d was caused by the government\u2019s repeated efforts to censor information.
\n\u201cDespite an all-out battle by rights activists and online media outlets, a campaign of repression by the government, illustrated by the crackdown on the \u2018Bersih 3.0\u2019 protest in April, and repeated censorship efforts, continue to undermine basic freedoms, in particular the right to information,\u201d<\/p>\n
Only Singapore performed worse than Malaysia at 149th place. Is Malaysia going to compare itself with the better or the worse-off ones?<\/p>\n
As Ahmad Shabery now considers online portals to be mainstream media, he wants to control them like BN controls the mainstream media. This appears to be BN\u2019s main agenda after the online news portal were blamed for causing the BN to lose the popular vote for the first time in history in the 2013 general elections.<\/p>\n
BN is blaming everyone except their own selves for this historic defeat, from the Chinese community to the online news portal, when PR won 51% of the popular vote compared to BN\u2019s 47% or 385,899 more votes than BN. Such proposed regulation is not progress but regression.<\/p>\n
Ahmad Shabery was not impressive in his previous stints as Information Minister and then Youth and Sports Minister, as he has no outstanding achievements to show off. However his suggestion to regulate the internet shows that he is worse than his predecessor Tan Sri Rais Yatim in failing to take a national or international perspective, and pandering to the UMNO constituency in preparation for the UMNO party elections later this year. <\/p>\n
How Can Screening The Racist Hate Film On May 13 Riots \u201cTanda Putera\u201d Be Compatible With Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak\u2019s Call For National Reconciliation And The Country to Move Forward With Less Politicking?
\nAnother proof that Ahmad Shabery is worse than Tan Sri Rais Yatim is his decision to release the racist hate film \u2018Tanda Putera\u2019 on August 29 in cinemas nationwide. This racist hate film on May 13, 1969 riots panders to extremism and again blame non-Malays for igniting the May 13 riots.<\/p>\n
It also contained malicious lies against DAP leaders, especially DAP leader Lim Kit Siang, who was never in Kuala Lumpur throughout the entire period but was in Sabah. For these reasons, Rais refused to allow cinemas to screen this film nation-wide.<\/p>\n
For Ahmad Shabery to permit the screening of this hate film \u2018Tanda Putera\u2019 because he said that it has a “national theme”, is not only divisive and discriminatory but also promotes lies, hatred and fear. How can screening the racist hate film on May 13 riots \u201cTanda Putera\u201d be compatible with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak\u2019s call for national reconciliation and the country to move forward with less politicking?<\/p>\n
Ahmad Shabery is gravely mistaken to think that UMNO can win back lost Malay or non-Malay votes by taking a hard-line racist and extremist stand that creates fear and hatred to frighten both Malay and non-Malay voters to return to BN. Such tactics backfired badly in the recent general elections, when more than 42% of Malay voters especially young voters abandoned BN by voting for PR.<\/p>\n

Kenyataan Akhbar oleh Setiausaha Agung DAP dan Ahli Parlimen Bagan, Lim Guan Eng di Kuala Lumpur pada 04.06.2013. <\/p>\n
Malaysia Tidak Perlu Ikut Model Singapura Untuk Mengawal Portal Berita Online Kerana Ia Melanggar Akta Jaminan MSC Malaysia Yang Menjamin Tiada Penapisan Internet.<\/strong> <\/p>\n Malaysia tidak perlu mengikut model Singapura untuk mengawal mana-mana laman web kerana ia melanggar Akta Jaminan MSC Malaysia yang menjamin tiada penapisan internet. DAP kesal dengan kenyataan Menteri Komunikasi dan Multimedia, Ahmad Shabery Cheek yang memulakan khidmat beliau dengan memungkiri janji BN supaya tidak akan menapis internet untuk mengawal mana-mana laman web. Di mana ‘Janji Ditepati’ BN? <\/p>\n Ahmad Shabery perlu memberi kebebasan kepada media dan akhbar dan bukannya cuba untuk terus mematahkan mana-mana ruang yang mengehadkan kebebasan akhbar yang terdapat dalam internet. Kenapa Malaysia perlu mengikuti Singapura dalam mengawal mana-mana laman web apabila kebebasan akhbar di Singapura lebih teruk? <\/p>\n Menurut Reporters Without Borders, Malaysia jatuh 23 tempat pada 2012 dari tempat ke-145 tahun ini dalam Indeks Kebebasan Akhbar 2013 kerana \u201cakses kepada maklumat menjadi lebih dan lebih terhad\u201d. Reporters Without Borders berkata bahawa ‘rekod buruk’ Malaysia adalah disebabkan usaha-usaha berulang kerajaan untuk menapis maklumat. <\/p>\n \u201cWalaupun perjuangan habis-habisan oleh aktivis dan media atas talian (online), kempen penindasan oleh kerajaan, digambarkan oleh tindakan keras dalam protes ‘Bersih 3.0’ pada April lalu, dan usaha penapisan berulang, akan terus menjejaskan kebebasan asas, khususnya hak untuk memperoleh maklumat\u201d. <\/p>\n Hanya Singapura yang lebih teruk berbanding Malaysia iaitu di tempat ke-149. Adakah Malaysia ingin dibandingkan dengan yang lebih baik atau lebih buruk? <\/p>\n Seperti yang dianggap Ahmad Shabery, portal berita atas talian adalah media arus perdana, beliau mahu mengawalnya seperti BN menguasai media arus perdana itu. Ini menunjukkan agenda utama BN selepas portal berita atas talian dituduh menyebabkan BN kalah undi popular buat pertama kalinya dalam sejarah pilihanraya umum 2013. <\/p>\n BN menyalahkan semua orang kecuali diri mereka sendiri untuk kekalahan bersejarah ini, daripada masyarakat Cina kepada portal berita atas talian, apabila PR menang 51% undi popular berbanding BN 47% atau 385,899 lebihan undi daripada BN. Peratusan itu dicadangkan bukan kemajuan tetapi kemunduran. <\/p>\n Ahmad Shabery tidak memberangsangkan dalam melaksanakan tugas beliau seperti sebelum ini sebagai Menteri Penerangan dan kemudian Menteri Belia dan Sukan, kerana dia tidak mempunyai pencapaian yang cemerlang untuk ditunjukkan. Walau bagaimanapun, cadangan beliau untuk mengawal internet menunjukkan bahawa beliau adalah lebih teruk daripada Tan Sri Rais Yatim kerana gagal mengambil perspektif nasional dan antarabangsa serta memenuhi kehendak kawasan UMNO dalam persediaan untuk pilihanraya parti UMNO akhir tahun ini. <\/p>\n Bagaimanakah Boleh Tayangan Filem Berunsurkan Kebencian Perkauman Pada Rusuhan 13 Mei \u201cTanda Putera\u201d Disamakan Dengan Seruan Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak Untuk Keharmonian Negara Dan Negara Maju Ke Hadapan Dengan Kurangnya Mainan Politik? <\/p>\n Satu lagi bukti bahawa keputusan Ahmad Shabery adalah lebih teruk daripada Tan Sri Rais Yatim apabila beliau membenarkan filem kebencian perkauman \u201cTanda Putera\u201d ditayangkan di pawagam seluruh negara pada 29 Ogos ini. Filem ini adalah filem kebencian perkauman pada 13 Mei 1969, ketidakpuasan dan ekstremis dan sekali lagi menyalahkan bukan Melayu yang mencetus rusuhan 13 Mei. <\/p>\n Ia juga mengandungi pembohongan berniat jahat terhadap pemimpin-pemimpin DAP, terutama pemimpin DAP Lim Kit Siang, yang tidak pernah berada di Kuala Lumpur sepanjang tempoh tersebut tetapi berada di Sabah. Atas sebab-sebab ini, Rais enggan membenarkan pawagam di seluruh negara untuk menayangkan filem ini. <\/p>\n Bagi Ahmad Shabery untuk membenarkan tayangan filem penuh kebencian \u201cTanda Putera\u201d ini atas sebab kononnya ia mempunyai tema ‘kebangsaan\u201d, bukan sahaja memecah-belahkan dan mendiskriminasi tetapi juga menggalakkan pembohongan, kebencian dan ketakutan. Bagaimana pemeriksaan filem kebencian perkauman pada 13 Mei \u201c Tanda Putera\u201d bersesuaian dengan saranan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak untuk keharmonian kebangsaan dan negera ini untuk maju ke hadapan dengan kurangnya mainan politik? <\/p>\n Ahmad Shabery ternyata silap untuk berfikir bahawa UMNO boleh memenangi kembali kehilangan undi Melayu atau bukan Melayu dengan mengambil pendirian bersifat rasis dan melampau yang mencipta ketakutan dan kebencian untuk menakutkan kedua-dua pengundi Melayu dan bukan Melayu untuk kembali kepada BN. Taktik ini telah memakan diri sendiri apabila mengakibatkan kekalahan teruk dalam pilihan raya umum baru-baru ini, di mana lebih daripada 42% pengundi Melayu terutama pengundi muda meninggalkan BN dengan mengundi PR. <\/p>\n LIM GUAN ENG.<\/p>\n —-Mandarin Version —-<\/p>\n
