Press Statement <\/a>By Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng In <\/p>\n
Komtar, George Town On 24.4.2017.<\/p>\n
BN Should Stop Their Lies That Penang Under Pakatan Harapan Has Seen Our Hills Been Cleared And Become \u201cBotak\u201d When Penang Is The Only State In Malaysia Over The Last 10 Years From 2006-2015 Where Not A Single Square Inch Of Permanent Forest Reserves Has Been Cut.<\/strong><\/p>\n BN should stop their lies that Penang under Pakatan Harapan has seen our hills been cleared and become \u201cbotak\u201d when Penang is the only state in Malaysia over the last 10 years from 2006-2015, where not a single square inch of permanent forest reserves has been cut. In contrast, Pahang cut down the largest permanent forest reserves in Malaysia at 161,379 hectares, followed by Kelantan 157,919 hectares and Perak 74,032 hectares. Figures from the National Forestry Department shows that even the smallest state in Malaysia, Perlis cut down 167 hectares(see table below)<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Only Penang did not touch a single square inch of forest reserves. Illegal clearing of private land without permit from the local authorities have been taken action and stopped. If BN were to succeed in taking back power in Penang, it is clear that they would reduce our forest reserves, as they have done in other states over the last 10 years. Clearly making our hills and forests \u201cbotak\u201d is BN and BN\u2019s new ally, PAS in Kelantan.<\/p>\n If BN were to take power, it is not only our hills and forests that will be made \u201cbotak\u201d. Our finances may also be \u201cbotak\u201d and we many not be able to enjoy the strong financial performance and annual budget surpluses over the last 8 years from 2008-2015. Penang recorded accumulated budget surpluses of RM574 million from 2008-2015, which is more than the RM373 million of budget surpluses recorded over 50 years under BN\u2019s rule from 1957-2007. Pakatan performed better in only 8 years than BN did in 50 years!<\/p>\n These surpluses enabled the Pakatan government to give out more than RM412 million in cash contribution directly to 1.6 million Penangites to senior citizens, disabled and single mothers (RM100), newly-born babies(RM200), university students(RM1,000), trishaw pullers(RM1,200) taxi-drivers and school-bus drivers(RM600). The hard-core poor households are assured a universal basic income of RM790 every month, this year all property owners are given a 6% discount of our assessment rates whilst full exemption is given to low-cost, low-medium cost and kampung houses.<\/p>\n BN reclaiming back Penang will mean all these monetary contributions will dry up. Furthermore, our yearly institutional allocation to vernacular and religious schools will also end. Do we want a return to bad old days of BN when vernacular schools do not receive a fixed or certain allocation yearly? Or BN\u2019s style of paying 2016 allocations one year later in 2017? The people will not want our schools to suffer from neglect and discrimination, just as the people do not want to see the old dirty Penang under BN before 2008, until the Pakatan state government cleaned up the state.<\/p>\n Remember that under BN, Penang was never praised as clean, green, safe and healthy. Neither was Penang ever listed by CNN when BN was in power, at No. 2 on their list of 17 of the best places to visit in the world. The Penang state government have faith that the people will choose a people-centric government that is proven as clean and competent over a crony government that is only interested in abuse of power and financial mismanagement.<\/p>\n LIM GUAN ENG <\/p>\n —BM version<\/p>\n Kenyataan Akhbar oleh Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang Lim Guan Eng pada 24.4.2017 Di Komtar, George Town<\/p>\n BN Harus Hentikan Penipuan Bahawa Pulau Pinang Di Bawah Pakatan Harapan Telah Menarah Bukit Dan Menjadikan ‘Botak’ Sedangkan Pulau Pinang Merupakan Satu-Satunya Negeri Di Malaysia Sejak 10 Tahun Yang Lalu Dari 2006-2015 Di Mana Tiada Seinci Persegi Pun Hutan Simpanan Kekal Yang Telah Ditebang.<\/strong><\/p>\n BN harus menghentikan pembohongan mereka bahawa Pulau Pinang di bawah Pakatan Harapan telah menarah bukit dan telah menjadikankan ‘botak’ sedangkan Pulau Pinang merupakan satu-satunya negeri di Malaysia sejak 10 tahun yang lepas dari 2006-2015, di mana tiada seinci persegi hutan simpanan kekal yang telah ditebang. Berbanding dengan Negeri Pahang yang telah menebang hutan simpanan kekal yang terbesar di Malaysia sebanyak 161,379 hektar, diikuti dengan Negeri Kelantan sebanyak 157,919 hektar dan Perak sebanyak 74,032 hektar. Angka daripada Jabatan Perhutanan Semenanjung Malaysia juga menunjukkan negeri yang terkecil di Malaysia iaitu Perlis turut menebang hutan simpanan kekal sebanyak 167 hektar (lihat jadual di bawah<\/a><\/strong>).<\/p>\n Hanya Pulau Pinang yang tidak pernah menyentuh walau seinci persegi hutan simpanan kekal. Penerokaan haram di tanah swasta tanpa permit daripada Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan telah diambil tindakan dan dihentikan. Sekiranya BN berjaya mengambil alih kuasa di Pulau Pinang, jelas mereka akan mengurangkan hutan simpanan kekal seperti yang telah mereka lakukan di negeri-negeri lain sejak 10 tahun yang lepas. Jelas membuktikan mereka yang membotakkan bukit dan hutan adalah BN dan sekutu barunya, PAS di Kelantan.<\/p>\n Jika BN merampas kuasa, bukan sahaja bukit dan hutan yang akan menjadi ‘botak’. Prestasi dan sumber kewangan juga mungkin akan menjadi ‘botak’ dan kita mungkin tidak dapat menikmati lebihan prestasi kewangan dan bajet tahunan yang kukuh sejak 8 tahun yang lepas daripada 2008-2015. Pulau Pinang telah mencatatkan lebihan belanjawan terkumpul sebanyak RM574 juta daripada tahun 2008-2015 yang melebihi RM373 juta lebihan belanjawan yang dicatatkan selama 50 tahun di bawah pemerintahan BN daripada tahun 1957-2007. Prestasi Pakatan adalah lebih baik dalam hanya tempoh 8 tahun berbanding 50 tahun di bawah BN.<\/p>\n Lebihan belanjawan ini membolehkan Kerajaan Negeri Pakatan membelanjakan lebih daripada RM412 juta dalam bentuk sumbangan wang tunai secara langsung kepada 1.6 juta rakyat Pulau Pinang untuk diberikan kepada warga emas, orang kelainan upaya (OKU) dan ibu tunggal sebanyak RM100, bayi yang baru dilahirkan (RM200), pelajar universiti (RM1,000), penarik beca (RM1,200), pemandu teksi dan bas sekolah (RM600).Isi rumah untuk miskin tegar juga diberi jaminan pendapatan asas sejagat sebanyak RM790 setiap bulan, bagi tahun 2017, pemilik hartanah diberi pengecualian 6% cukai pintu manakala pengecualian penuh cukai pintu diberikan kepada rumah kos rendah, kos sederhana rendah dan rumah-rumah kampung.<\/p>\n Jika BN mengambilalih kembali kuasa Pulau Pinang ia bermakna semua sumbangan kewangan yang dibayar akan jadi kering. Tambahan pula, peruntukan institusi tahunan kepada sekolah vernakular dan sekolah agama juga akan berakhir. Adakah kita mahu kembali kepada zaman buruk BN dahulu apabila sekolah-sekolah vernakular tidak akan menerima peruntukan tetap atau setiap tahun? Atau corak BN yang membayar peruntukan pada tahun 2016 dibayar lewat setahun? Rakyat tidak mahu sekolah-sekolah diabai dan didiskriminasi, sama seperti rakyat yang tidak mahu melihat Pulau Pinang jadi kotor di bawah BN sebelum tahun 2008, sehingga Kerajaan Negeri Pakatan membersihkan negeri ini.<\/p>\n Ingat, di bawah BN, Pulau Pinang tidak pernah dipuji sebagai bersih, hijau, selamat dan sihat. Begitu juga, Pulau Pinang tidak pernah disenaraikan oleh CNN ketika di bawah pemerintahan BN sebagai tempat kedua daripada keseluruhan 17 tempat yang paling baik dilawati di dunia. Kerajaan Negeri Pulau Pinang percaya bahawa rakyat akan memilih kerajaan yang mesra rakyat yang terbukti bersih dan cekap berbanding dengan kerajaan kroni yang hanya berminat dalam penyalahgunaan kuasa dan salah urus kewangan.<\/p>\n LIM GUAN ENG<\/p>\n —Mandarin Version —<\/p>\n
