Press Statement By DAP Secretary-General And MP For Bagan Lim Guan Eng In Kuala Lumpur On 9.2.2015. <\/p>\n
Yesterday\u2019s PR Leadership Council meeting in Kuala Lumpur was the first attended by all 3 party leaders of PR in a year. Yesterday\u2019s Leadership council meeting reaffirmed the 2009 Common Policy Framework signed by all 3 parties and that PR operates based on decision by consensus of all 3 parties, hence requires that the the twin issues of the Kelantan Shariah Criminal Code(hudud) and local government elections must first be discussed by PR Leadership Council. A special Leadership Council meeting will be held in the coming weeks to discuss both these contentious issues. <\/p>\n
DAP has adopted a firm position of restoring local government elections that was banned by the then Alliance(BN) government in 1965. Local government elections is reflected implicitly in the PR Common Policy Framework adopted in December 2009 which used the phrase \u201cstrengthen local government democracy\u201d and explicitly in the 2013 PR Penang General Election Manifesto that specifically mentioned implementing local government elections as well as the Selangor Pakatan Rakyat 2013 General Elections Manifesto with the specific undertaking to \u201ccarry out decentralization through a gradual implementation of Local Government Elections\u201d. This was agreed by all 3 parties in the respective states. Further, no political party in PR had ever moved a resolution in their party Annual Assembly or Muktamar opposing local government elections.
\n <\/p>\n
However DAP is willing to let the issue of local government election be first discussed by the PR Leadership Council meeting. As for the Kelantan Shariah Criminal Code or hudud laws, PAS admits that these laws are not in the PR Common Policy framework or in the PR General Election manifesto. However PAS claims that these laws were passed in the 90s even before PR was formed.<\/p>\n
Whether a solution can be reached to resolve these two contentious issues, it is important that a meeting of the PR Leadership council comprising of the 3 party leaders, must be held first in accordance with the principle that PR operates based on consensus decision-making.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, BN operates through a one-party state, that is now abandoning inclusiveness and the Malaysian spirit for everyone regardless of race and religion. Instead BN is now following UMNO\u2019s racial exclusiveness and extremism as epitomised by a former Deputy Minister falsely blaming the Chinese community in Kedah for burning the Koran when it was done by Malay Muslim man with mental problems and yet remaining unpunished. Worse the Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob is defended by the Prime Minister and regarded as a hero for his racist remark that the Chinese are oppressing the Malays and blaming the Chinese for causing the prices of goods not to be reduced.<\/p>\n

\nKenyataan Media Setiausaha Agung DAP dan Ahli Parlimen Bagan Lim Guan Eng di Kuala Lumpur pada 9.2.2015<\/p>\n
Majlis Pimpinan Tertinggi Pakatan Rakyat di Kuala Lumpur kelmarin adalah yang pertama dihadiri oleh ketiga-tiga pemimpin parti Pakatan bagi tahun ini. Mesyuarat itu menegaskan semula Dasar Bersama tahun 2009 yang telah ditandatangani oleh ketiga-tiga parti dan bahawa Pakatan bergerak berasaskan keputusan bersama ketiga-tiga parti. Justeru itu, isu Kanun Jenayah Syariah Kelantan (hudud) dan pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan perlu dibincangkan terlebih dahulu oleh Majlis Pimpinan Tertinggi PR. Satu mesyuarat khas Majlis Tertinggi akan diadakan dalam beberapa minggu lagi untuk membincangkan kedua-dua isu yang menjadi pertikaian itu. <\/p>\n
DAP mengambil pendirian tegas untuk mengembalikan pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan yang telah diharamkan oleh kerajaan Perikatan (BN) pada tahun 1965. Pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan boleh dibaca secara tersirat dalam Dasar Bersama yang ditetapkan pada Disember 2009 dengan menggunakan ungkapan \u201cmemperkukuh demokrasi kerajaan tempatan\u201d dan secara tersurat dalam Manifesto Pilihanraya Umum Pakatan Rakyat Pulau Pinang yang secara khusus menyebut tentang pelaksanaan pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan, selain Manifesto Pilihanraya Umum Pakatan Rakyat Selangor 2013 yang secara jelas menyebut \u201cmenjalankan desentralisasi menerusi pelaksanaan secara bertahap Pilihanraya Kerajaan Tempatan.\u201d Hal ini dipersetujui oleh ketiga-tiga parti di negeri berkenaan. Selain itu, tiada parti politik dalam Pakatan pernah mengemukakan usul dalam Perhimpunan Agung atau Muktamar mereka untuk menentang pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan. <\/p>\n
Bagaimanapun, DAP sanggup membiarkan isu pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan terlebih dulu dibincangkan dalam mesyuarat Majlis Tertinggi Pakatan. Berkenaan Kanun Jenayah Syariah Kelantan pula, atau undang-undang hudud, PAS mengakui bahawa ia tidak terdapat dalam Dasar Bersama Pakatan mahu pun Manifesto Pilihanraya Umum Pakatan. PAS mendakwa bahawa undang-undang ini diluluskan pada tahun 90an sebelum Pakatan dibentuk. <\/p>\n
Tidak kira sama ada penyelesaian boleh dicapai untuk merungkai kedua-dua isu itu atau tidak, mustahak untuk diadakan terlebih dulu mesyuarat Majlis Tertinggi Pakatan yang melibatkan pemimpin ketiga-tiga parti, selaras dengan prinsip Pakatan yang bergerak atas pembuatan keputusan secara muafakat. <\/p>\n
Pada masa yang sama, BN bergerak secara bersendirian sehingga mengabaikan sifat inklusif dan semangat Malaysia bagi setiap orang tanpa mengira kaum dan agama. Malah BN kini mengambil sifat eksklusif dan ekstremisme perkauman UMNO seperti yang ditunjukkan oleh seorang bekas Timbalan Menteri yang secara salah menuduh masyarakat Cina di Kedah membakar Quran, sedangkan perbuatan itu dilakukan oleh seorang lelaki Muslim yang kurang siuman, dan pemimpin berkenaan sehingga kini masih belum dihukum. Lebih buruk, Menteri Pertanian dan Industri Asas Tani Ismail Sabri Yaakob yang dipertahankan oleh Perdana Menteri dan dianggap sebagai hero kerana mengeluarkan kata-kata bahawa Cina sedang menindas Melayu dan menyalahkan kaum Cina kerana menyebabkan harga barangan tidak turun.<\/p>\n
