This day 48 years ago, a group of patriotic Malaysians came together to form the Democratic Action Party to bring forth a Malaysia that is just and fair to all, regardless race, creed and gender. <\/p>\n<p>Right from the beginning, it has been an epic uphill battle fighting an authoritarian regime that not only persecutes our leaders and members but also conduct widespread electoral manipulation in elections that are not free and fair, media restrictions, detention without trial and other forms of repressive measures.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->BN\u2019s unchallenged rule was assisted by its total control of the mass media, reminiscent of Communist and fascist dictatorships as well as the racially divisive tactics of South Africa\u2019s discredited white apartheid regimes. In these years, any possibility of cooperation with other opposition parties to form a viable coalition to challenge Barisan Nasional&#8217;s rule would be demonised by the mainstream media as anti-national,anti-Malay or anti-Islam and defeated immediately. <\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, DAP persisted through these trials and tribulations and finally prevailed in the historic 2008 general elections which ushered in a two-party system with the formalisation of Pakatan Rakyat. The 2013 general elections when PR won 51% of the popular vote spells the beginning of the end for BN, if not immediately is certainly so in the near future. <\/p>\n<p>DAP\u2019s struggle for a just and fair Malaysia is based on rule of law and integrity in leadership that provides opportunities for all against the self-enriching cronies continues. Through CAT governance of competency, accountability and transparency Malaysians can make not only a moral choice but vote for a brighter future for our children <\/p>\n<p>As a partner in power with Pakatan Rakyat component parties in the heroic fight to  end to BN&#8217;s authoritarian rule, DAP is focused both on democratising the nation&#8217;s institutions and providing socio-economic justice by implementing sound policies to escape the middle-income trap and provide for better livelihood. Unless we escape the middle-income trap, Malaysia would be stuck with 8 countries in East and South Asia that falls within the per-capita income of US$1,036-US$12,516 (RM41,052) such as Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, China, India and Sri Lanka. <\/p>\n<p>Fundamentally, the middle-income trap is an economic governance issue where BN\u2019s policy paralysis and failures has led to a gradual decline and an eventual stagnation in living standards. A more inclusive and sustainable growth strategy will be needed which includes infrastructure investment; increasing innovation through research and development; promoting entrepreneurship; investing in human capital by way of revamping education systems in order to produce highly-skilled workers and professionals; reducing income inequality; as well as rooting out corruption and cronyism. <\/p>\n<p>The Economist\u2019s latest edition listed Malaysia as third in the world in its crony capitalism index for 2014, the same position since the last study was conducted in 2007. The Economist said uncontrolled rent-seeking this century was allowing politically well-connected billionaires worldwide to double their wealth. This is clearly evident in Malaysia where the independent power industry, finance, construction industry, sugar, rice, water, sewage, rubbish disposal and highway toll concessionaires are in the hands of several crony companies.<\/p>\n<p>Only UBAH can put an end to crony capitalism and allow Malaysia to escape the middle-income trap.(en\/cn)<\/p>\n<p>As we acknowledge the party\u2019s 48th anniversary, it is worth noting that DAP will turn 50 in 2016. The DAP Central Executive Committee decided in its December 2013 meeting to form a &#8220;DAP at 50&#8221; committee led by National Political Education Director Sdr. Liew Chin Tong to educate Malaysians about the party&#8217;s struggle and to prepare for events to commemorate the 50th anniversary. More importantly the 50th Anniversary celebrations will serve as a launch pad for change towards Putrajaya at the next general elections. <\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;BM Version &#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Perutusan Ulangtahun ke-48 DAP oleh Setiausaha Agung DAP merangkap Ahli Parlimen Bagan, Lim Guan Eng pada 18 Mac 2014 di Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hanya \u2018UBAH\u2019 mampu membebaskan Malaysia daripada jerat pendapatan sederhana<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Di saat negara mendoakan keselamatan MH370 dalam suasana yang begitu suram, DAP tidak meraikan ulangtahun ke-48nya hari ini, kecuali melalui nota ringkas ini untuk mengiktiraf bahawa parti telah wujud sejak 18 Mac 1966. Hari ini, 48 tahun lalu, sekumpulan warga Malaysia yang patriotik telah berkumpul untuk membentuk Parti Tindakan Demokratik bagi melahirkan negara Malaysia yang adil dan saksama kepada semua tanpa mengira kaum, agama atau gender.<\/p>\n<p>Sejak dari mula, DAP menghadapi perjuangan yang penuh dugaan kerana menentang rejim autoritarian yang bukan sahaja menindas ahli dan pemimpin parti malah melakukan manipulasi pilihan raya yang begitu meluas secara tidak bebas dan tidak adil, dengan kawalan dan sekatan media, penahanan tanpa bicara dan banyak lagi langkah-langkah yang menekan dan menindas.<\/p>\n<p>Pemerintahan BN yang tidak tercabar dibantu oleh kawalan ketat terhadap media massa, yang mengingatkan kita kepada pentadbiran diktator komunis dan fasis serta taktik pemisahan kaum oleh rejim apartheid kulit putih Afrika Selatan. Pada zaman ini, apa sahaja cubaan oleh parti-parti pembangkang untuk bekerjasama membentuk perikatan politik yang kuat bagi mencabar pemerintahan Barisan Nasional akan diserang hebat oleh media arus perdana dan disifatkan sebagai anti-nasional, anti-Melayu atau anti-Islam dan dikalahkan serta merta.<\/p>\n<p>Pun begitu, DAP tetap teguh melalui ujian dan tribulasi ini dan akhirnya muncul dengan jayanya dalam pilihan raya bersejarah tahun 2008 yang mengusung satu sistem dua parti dengan pembentukan rasmi Pakatan Rakyat. Justeru, keputusan Pilihan Raya Umum 2013 di mana Pakatan Rakyat menang 51% undi popular jelas menggambarkan bermulanya hari-hari terakhir BN, jika tidak segera pun, ia pastinya kian hampir.<\/p>\n<p>Usaha DAP ke arah negara Malaysia yang adil dan saksama adalah berlandaskan kedaulatan undang-undang dan integriti kepimpinan yang menyediakan peluang untuk semua, berbanding kronisme yang mengaut kekayaan secara berterusan. Melalui prinsip urustadbir CAT (Cekap, Akauntabel, dan Telus) rakyat Malaysia bukan sahaja dapat membuat pilihan yang bermoral tetapi memilih masa depan yang lebih cerah untuk generasi akan datang.<\/p>\n<p>Sebagai rakan kongsi kuasa dengan parti komponen Pakatan Rakyat dalam perjuangan untuk mengakhiri pemerintahan kuku besi BN, DAP menumpukan ke arah pendemokrasian institusi negara dan menyediakan keadilan sosio-ekonomi dengan melaksanakan polisi yang mampan supaya kita dapat keluar dari jerat pendapatan sederhana dan memberikan kehidupan yang lebih baik. Sekiranya kita tidak keluar dari jerat pendapatan sederhana ini, Malaysia akan ikut tersangkut bersama 8 lagi negara di Timur dan Selatan Asia yang berada di lingkungan pendapatan per kapita US$1,036 &#8211; US$12,516 (RM41,502) seperti Thailand, Indonesia, Filipina, Vietnam, China, India dan Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n<p>Secara asasnya, jerat pendapatan sederhana adalah suatu isu pentadbiran ekonomi di mana kelemahan dan kegagalan polisi BN telah membawa kemeruduman berperingkat dan akan berakhir dengan pembekuan standard kehidupan. Strategi pembangunan yang lebih inklusif dan mampan amat diperlukan, yang meligkupi pelaburan infrastruktur, penambahan inovasi melalui penyelidikan dan pembangunan (R&#038;D), mempromosikan keusahawanan, melabur dalam modal insan dengan memberdayakan sistem pendidikan demi menghasilkan pekerja yang profesional dan berkemahiran tinggi, mengurangkan pendapatan yang tidak sekata, serta membanteras rasuah dan kronisme.<\/p>\n<p>Edisi terbaru majalah The Economist menyenaraikan Malaysia sebagai negara dalam kedudukan ketiga dalam indeks kapitalisme-kroninya bagi tahun 2014, kedudukan yang sama sejak kajian tersebut dilakukan pada tahun 2007. The Economist menyatakan bahawa budaya \u2018rent-seeking\u2019 di abad ini membenarkan jutawan yang mempunyai kabel politik di seluruh dunia untuk menggandakan kekayaan mereka. Ini jelas kelihatan di Malaysia, di mana industri tenaga bebas, perbankan, pembinaan, gula, beras, air, pembetungan, pengurusan sisa pepejal dan syarikat konsesi tol lebuhraya berada dalam tangan-tangan beberapa syarikat kroni.<\/p>\n<p>Hanya \u2018UBAH\u2019 mampu membebaskan Malaysia daripada jerat pendapatan sederhana.<\/p>\n<p>Sambil kita menanggapi ulangtahun parti yang ke 48, adalah baik untuk kita beringat bahawa DAP akan berusia 50 tahun pada 2016. Jawatankuasa Eksekutif Pusat DAP telah memutuskan dalam mesyuaratnya pada Disember 2013 untuk membentuk jawatankuasa \u201850 tahun DAP\u2019 (DAP at 50) diketuai Pengarah Pendidikan Politik Kebangsaan, Sdr Liew Chin Tong untuk mendidik rakyat Malaysia mengenai pergelutan parti dan bersiap-sedia untuk mengadakan acara bagi meraikan ulangtahun ke-50 ini. Lebih penting lagi, sambutan 50 tahun ini akan menjadi tapak pelancaran ke arah perubahan menuju Putrajaya dalam pilihan raya yang akan datang.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;Mandarin Version
