Kayu – 19 Rejab 2008 / 23 Julai 2008

Teman yang sebenarnya sedikit tidak berminat untuk berbicara mengapa Kerajaan Barisan Nasional (KBN) sekarang perlu ditumbangkan dengan seberapa pantas. Kebanyakkan warga Malaysia yang berdaulat (termasuk ahli BN) sedia maklum yang ianya akan terjadi pada suatu masa dan ketika, hanya Allah yang akan menentukan masanya. Malangnya, kebanyakkan mereka berpendapat sedemikian sekadar kerana kebencian mereka kepada BN atau Pak Lah tanpa sebab yang kukuh atau mereka sendiri fahami.

Kebencian mereka untuk menjatuhkan BN kebiasaannya hanya berasaskan apa yang mereka baca, dengar dan lihat dari orang di sekeliling mereka. Tapi mereka kurang berfikir sebab-sebab utama mengapa KBN perlu ditumbangkan. Masyarakat Malaysia lebih tertumpu kepada isu-isu kronisme, kenaikan harga barang (inflasi) seperti minyak dan gejala rasuah (duit politik mengikut kata BN). Walhal kesemua itu hanyalah produk sampingan hasil dari sebab-sebab utama yang pemimpin-pemimpin kita abaikan.

Teman bukan hendak merujuk sekadar kepada KBN Pak Lah sahaja. Ianya harus merangkumi keseluruhan 51 tahun selapas merdeka, bermula dari Rahman hinggalah ke Pak Lah. KBN, telah berlaku zalim dan khianat terhadap kepercayaan yang datuk,nenek,ibu dan bapa kita telah berikan kepada mereka semenjak dari 1957 hinggalah sekarang.

Kenapa KBN perlu ditumbangkan – 1) Zalim@Tidak Adil

KBN adalah kerajaan yang tidak berlaku adil dari segala jenis batasan. Baik dari segi sistem undang-undang, royalti minyak/gas/air, kebebasan menegur atau bersuara, pilihanraya yang adil lagi saksama, anugerah kontrak atau konsesi, perlantikan penguatkuasa, agihan subsidi atau dana, sistem pembelajaran dan macam-macam lagi.

Kita ambil contoh isu royalti minyak/gas. KBN tidak berlaku adil semenjak dari tahu 1990 lagi. Bila saja PAS memerintah Kelantan, atau pada 1999 bila saja PAS memerintah Terengganu. Royalti minyak ditahan dan diganti dengan Wang Ehsan, tapi diberikan kepada ahli BN sahaja, tidak kepada kerajaan negeri. Terengganu pula mendapat Wang Ehsan (Royalti minyak yang sebenarnya) nya sebaik KBN memerintah kembali. Kelantan pula masih tidak mendapat apa royalti baik dari minyak atau gas asli.

Ini adalah salah laku tidak berlaku adil secara terang-terangan yang dilakukan oleh KBN. Membuatkan teman berasa hairan tersangat, mengapa warga Terengganu masih lagi memilih KBN yang telah menunjukkan sifat zalim mereka. Terang-terangan merampas sesuatu yang hak dari mereka yang berhak, tanpa ada rasa malu atau bersalah. Mungkinkah, warga Terengganu tidak sesabar warga Kelantan, atau imannnya tidak sehebat warga Kelantan untuk memilih diantara Islam atau Duit Ehsan. Mudahan-mudahan, doa-doa mereka yang dizalimi oleh KBN dapat mempercepatkan kejatuhan KBN, secepat yang boleh.

Scenario yang sama terjadi di Pulau Pinang, Perak, Kedah dan Selangor. Kementerian Perlancongan menarik balik peruntukan untuk dana perlancongan negeri, dengan alasan tidak bersefahaman walhal dana itu adalah dana dari persekutuan yang mana pemiliknya adalah rakyat Malaysia. Projek-projek dan dana-dana yang berkepentingan untuk rakyat dibatalkan sewenang-wenangnya sebagai membalas dendam terhadap rakyat yang tidak mengundi mereka.

Undang-undang hanya dilaksanakan kepada individu yang mereka rasakan perlu. Kroni dan para sahabat serta saudara mereka seringkali dilindungi samada dengan cara penipuan dalam sistem kehakiman, menggunakan polis untuk melaksanakan agenda zalim mereka dan menggunakan media semasa sebagai propaganda.

Ini adalah ciri-ciri kerajaan zalim.

Kenapa KBN perlu ditumbangkan – 2)Khianat@Tidak Amanah

Kita dan generasi terdahulu sebelum kita telah mengamanahkan hasil kekayaan Malaysia kepada KBN, untuk digunakan sebagai bekalan untuk generasi selepas kita. KBN telah diamanahkan dengan kekayaan yang melimpah ruah untuk membangunkan Malaysia, baik dari segi minyak, pertanian, perusahaan dan sebagainya.  

KBN telah diamanahkan untuk menggunakan kekayaan sedia ada untuk membangunkan sistem pembelajaran, infrastruktur(pengangkutan,perumahan dll), keselamatan, khidmat sosial(hospital, tentera, polis dll), perundangan dan yang lain-lainnya untuk rakyat. Malangnya, KBN hanya melaksanakannya untuk orang-orang kaya atau pun kroni-kroni mereka.

DSAI telah menghuraikan konsep khianat ini dengan berkesan walau pun singkat sewaktu debat beliau dengan Menteri Shabery “Berbuih Mulut” Cheek. DSAI berkata, apabila KBN menggunakan kekayaan Negara untuk membantu rakyat miskin dan serdahana ianya dipanggil subsidi, tetapi apabila kekayaan negara digunakan untuk menyelamatkan kroni-kroni mereka ianya dipanggil “bail out”. Ataupun apabila  memberi kelebihan kepada kroni-kroni kaya mereka untuk melaksanakan projek mega, ianya dipanggil perangsang(incentive).

Lebih teruk lagi, mereka menyembunyikan atau pun melarang kita sebagai rakyat Malaysia dari melihat kemana pergi kekayaan Negara yang kita amanahkan kepada mereka. Penyata akaun Petronas, Khazanah, Dana Harta, KWSP, LHDN semuannya disembunyikan atas alasan keselamatan. Walhal, kita lah yang telah memberikan amanah itu kepada mereka.

Ianya ibarat seorang bapa memberi seratus ringgit kepada anaknya untuk membeli barang dapur. Tetapi si anak balik hanya membawa sekilo ikan kembung dan seikat sawi tetapi memberitahu bapanya bahawa kesemua seratus ringgit telah dibelanjakan. Bila diminta resit, si anak memberitahu bapanya tidak perlu sibuk-sibuk hendak bertanya bagaimana si anak membelanjakan wang tadi. Jika situasi ini kita bayangkan kepada KBN dan kita, layaknya mereka sudah lama diberi penampar maut.

Tahukah anda 40% kekayaan di Malaysia dikuasai oleh hanya 10% penduduk di Malaysia? Sebahagian besar mereka ini adalah pengkhianat yang terdiri dari ahli-ahli KBN dan kroni-kroni mereka yang mencuri hasil kekayaan Malaysia untuk diri sendiri.

Dengan ini, teman menyeru kesemua rakyat Malaysia yang masih mengundi KBN pada PRU-12 yang lalu, sudah-sudahlah. Teman tahu, setiap kali anda memangkah KBN pada pilihan raya sebelum ini anda sering berkata kepada diri sendiri. “Tidak mengapa, aku yakin kali ini KBN akan berubah. Menjadi lebih adil dari yang dulu”.Masa depan kita masih ada peluang sekiranya anda berubah sekarang dan caranya hanya satu; iaitu Kerajaan KBN sekarang ini perlu ditumbangkan.

I was tempted to write this argument in Bahasa Melayu, but I change my mind knowing that my targeted audience would mainly be from the Non-Bumis. The content of this article will make some of you to label me as racist, bias or whatever for voicing out my mind and my opinion, but honestly I don’t give a damn because if you do have brain(the one that work properly) then you won’t.

However do read it with an open mind and think the logic behind my fight for what is right for now, because I will stop fighting if and only if the hope is no longer there. That is when no Bumis worth to be defended.

I would try my best to explain and create awareness to the Malaysian citizens especially the non-Bumi, why 50 years after independence is not an enough time for us to abolish NEP (New Economic Policy) and to reduce the JPA scholar from 90% to 50%. At the same time I am hoping that the Bumis won’t look at this as another reason to lay back for another 50 years and wait miracle to happen. If they do, then they are just one less moron Bumi for me to fight for. My sincere apology to my Chinese countrymen, because this article is all about you. How you have become successful in use to be a foreign land that we call Malaya due to the tactical discrimination applied by the British; in your favour.

NEP 50 years after

Most of the non-Bumis insist that the NEP (New Economic Policy) or anything of it lookalike to be abolished since it has been 50 years after independence. It creates “unfair” policy towards the non-Bumis and to the non-Bumis 50 years is more than enough for Bumi to re-establish their self to be competitive especially in economy as well as life welfare. NEP started in 1971 by Tun Abdul Razak and supposedly to be ended in 1991. It ended alright, but with glittering failure written all over it. It was replaced by National Development Policy (NDP) by Mahadet.

JPA scholarship to 50%

Tajudin(UMNO) and Kulasageran(DAP) had a shouting match on this matter; equivalent to a bunch of 5 years old children fighting over a candy ending with Kulasageran branded Tajudin as dumb. As far as I am concern, both of them are not dumb; they are simply plain moron. Why? Because both of them argued on a matter from the opposite end, yet failed to raise any meaningful question for argument while in parliment. One thing for sure, the reduction of JPA scholarship quota from 90% to 50% fro Bumis as announced by Nazri would one day be the right move; but for now I would stand my ground that the time is far from due.

When it begins

In the early 1830s, at the beginning of mass migration of Chinese and Indian to Malaya for work and business opportunity. All the way to 1970 before NEP was introduced; we have been living in a blueprint social structure that was developed by the British government. Its clear intention is to separate the Malay, Chinese and Indian through the “divide and rule” philosophy. Indians were placed in estates nationwide, Malay to stay in the village while the Chinese to stay in town to run the business. The British would not let the Bumis hold any economical advantage knowing that it will fund the political movement which would lead to fight for independence. So the British handed the economy to the Chinese while at the same time hand over the political power to the Malay, while the remaining race got nothing. It lasted till 1957 when the British had to give “full” independence to Malaya.

What the British called segregation, I would call discrimination. This led to the scenario now. More than 80% of Malaysia’s economy belong to the Chinese, while the remaining to be spread out among the rest of the Bumis and Indian. That was the number back in 1971 and it still stood till now.

But even after 1957 things never changed. Rahman, Razak, Hussein, Mahathir and even Abdullah never really change the same blueprint that British had laid down. Even after independence, British still have say in a lot of Malaysian economic agenda since they have planted the seed long before and now they are enjoying the fruit of their hard work. I am not going to point my finger to anybody on this because history would pass its own judgement, sooner or later.

The NEP never really delivers what it is supposed to do under Rahman, Razak, Hussein and Mahathir. All of them were heavily influence by British anyway. We can hardly single out any successful entity or person from NEP. They were easily shadowed by people like Robert Kuok, Lim Goh Tong, Teh Hong Piow, Quek Leng Chan and many more; product of British discrimination.

Why 50 years and 50% is not enough?

So, even after 50 years of independence (38 years after NEP) the Bumis never really got the upper hand. The Chinese benefited from that discrimination for so long that it needs more than 50 years (most of it were corrupted year anyway) and more than just NEP( the one that still favour Chinese under Rahman, Razak, Hussein, Mahathir and Abdullah) to level out the field. Not for another 50 years, only if the country wealth to be handed over to one honest political entity. Until then, the Bumis would have to live with whatever they have now.

I said it before and I will say it again. 50 years after independence surely is not the right reason and time to abolish NEP and reduce JPA Bumis’ quota to 50%. But it seems to be the right reason for UMNO to abolish NEP and reduce the quota to 50%; simply to stop PR march towards securing 51% of parliament seat; because UMNO knows 50% is not enough.

Wood – 14 Rejab 1429/17 July 2008

I was having a late night TT with a bunch of friends at a mamak restaurant in Larkin last weekend.  Nothing much to talk about except some stories that never seems to bore any one of us, until suddenly one of my friends asked me this question. “Since you are a good lawyer, and a darn good one that I know of, can you answer this question. Is it considered to be a crime if I were to kill a person that technically does not exist in Malaysia?”

Well, he got my attention alright. Sounded like double jeopardy, where you cannot be trial and punish for the same crime twice. But in this case, the question would be how you can be trial for killing something that does not “exist” technically.

But let us skip what my friend and I talked about after that because now, I have this question to ask to Datuk Zaid Ibrahim. Is it a crime if a person kills another person that does not “exist “in this country?

Malaysian law prohibited any type of Jew to enter its sovereign land, as simple as that. Whether the Jew is from USA, British, France, Spain, Denmark or even Singapore, a law is a law. You can ask any Malaysian citizen and chances are that all of them know this hard fact, may be a few stupid one would not. As such, we can conclude that technically by law there would not be any Jews in Malaysia because the law said so.

But we also know for a fact that Jews have been roaming our countries for the past 30-40 years, thanks to UMNO-BN effective country management. Mahadet would be the person that most Jews would like to thank the most. Under his regime, Jews gained access to Malaysia through country like Singapore, USA and British or entity like IBM, Microsoft and Tesco. Mahadet close his eyes for his love to the country rather than his love to Islam. But you are not reading this article for that reason right, so let me skip that part also.

Going back to my question; my friend claimed that he has the ability to identify any living Jew that walk on this earth. To him, there is a watermark like image printed on the forehead of every Jews that say, “Please kill this Jew”. Having said that, he always has the urge to run over a bunch of Jews that walked on the sidewalk of KLCC whenever he drives around KLCC. Or to put cyanide or lethal poison in their drink whenever he walks past their cubicle.

My friend claims that he does not know how long he can hold on anymore. The urge is getting stronger and stronger every second. He told me that he might one day kill one Jew each day and toss their carcass at a river nearby his apartment. I would not blame him though because I know where he came from. My friend come from Palestine and been living there since born till 15 years old before he went to USA and later work in Malaysia till now.

While celebrating his 14^th birthday with his family in front of his father’s house, an Israel F14 Hornet drop a cluster bomb at the gathering claiming that his father’s house is a terrorist post. The cluster bomb killed everybody but him. The same thing happened to his uncle during their family gathering, the Israelis cluster bomb killed his wife, sons, daughters, parents but him. He was martyr (according to their ulama, not our ulama) 5 years back when he exploded himself at an Israelis army post, killing all the Jews army.

If I am in his position, I don’t think I will wait this long to kill “one”, but I am not. Dear Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, can you answer my friend question please. “Is it considered a crime for a person in Malaysia to kill a Jew, knowing that he or she does not exist technically?”
