The Gemas feedlot debacle; half-truths and pertinent questions Nawawi Mohamad

The Gemas feedlot debacle; half-truths as well as pertinent questions Nawawi Mohamad

NOV 2 A RM73.64 million supervision plan in Gemas, Negri Sembilan related to Minister Datuk Shahrizat Abdul Jalil's family to furnish 8,000 heads of cattle in 2010 as well as ultimately 60,000 heads in 2015 has incited in to a mess when production was during usually 3,289 heads in 2010 which is usually 41.1 per cent.

This was reported by a Auditor-General as well as subsequently reported in a media.

In parliament Noh Omar, who is a Agriculture Minister, deemed a plan successful since "the total series of cattle brought in to a plantation between 2008 as well as 2010 was 8,016".

But a categorical purpose of a plantation is to furnish cows as well as not to move in cows from somewhere else as well as feed them prior to slaughter! When you speak about producing, it involves breeding as well as everything which goes with it. The stating by a media as well as reply by a apportion was not wholly correct. The money concerned was RM131 million (not usually RM73.64 million), a apportionment of a RM250 million soothing loan, as well as thus distant RM131 million have been disbursed as confirmed as well as shielded by a budding minister.

The Gemas feedlot is ostensible to be a National Feedlot Authority in as well as with a Ministry of Agriculture as well as a Negri Sembilan government. The annual aim envisaged by a Ministry of Agriculture is to furnish 1.3 million heads in 2010 as well as not 60,000. It is a comprehensive intrigue with a Gemas feedlot centre as a categorical anchor with 310 heavenly body feedlot sites all over a country as well as a single in isolation feedlot. This is how a loan was allocated: a Gemas feedlot was since RM80 million as well as a rest RM40 million. The Gemas feedlot has to furnish (for itself) 60,000 heads annually in 2010 (not 2015) as well as it has a vital purpose to play in supplying a tributary cows, food, technical assistance, advice as! well as alternative services for a complete feedlot intrigue national together with a in isolation one.

Now remember, a aim was 1.3 million cows hold it or not!

Thus when a categorical player in Gemas could usually produced 3,289 heads for itself in 2010, how could it provide all a tributary cows, food as well as alternative services for a rest of a heavenly body feedlots?

The alternative subject which needs to be asked is what happens to a 311 feedlots in a scheme? The subsequent subject is what should be finished next? Wouldn't it be most cheaper to usually import a cows? Is a MACC going in? This is a money-wasting intrigue as a outcome of moneymaking as well as a single some-more everlasting weight a rakyat has to bear. Could it be which a Umno/BN supervision suspicion which a rakyat are cows?

Final Warning: Malaysia may be bankrupt sooner than 2019

Alarm bells should be sounding by now, nonetheless a nation's leaders seem to be adamant upon gripping things sounding rosy as good as well. The Auditor-General's Report for 2010 has shown how far down a barrel, Malaysia has gone.

It must be remarkable which when Malaysia was formed in 1963, a British left her with a solid a! dministr ative template. Yet, after some-more than 50 years of rule by Barisan Nasional, a template has not been softened on. In fact, it has gone to a dogs; replaced instead by a form of supervision which encourages leakages as good as crime of all forms.

Malaysia has a race of twenty-eight million as good as a polite use of around 1.3 million. Out of a twenty-eight million, usually a single percent have been paying income tax. This obviously shows which 99% have been possibly next which income taxation bracket or merely earning too small to need to compensate taxes. With inflation as good as a prices of products stability to rise, design even fewer people to compensate income taxation in a nearby future.

Incredulous optimism

Yet, a Najib administration's idea for 2012 is to accede to perks to a polite use as good as give hand-outs to non-serving members of a society in a dubious confidence which this will improve productivity as good as lift potency as good as so forth. There is a lot of hope, yet as always, no genuine mechanism to bring about results. The AG's report obviously shows which yet there were improvements from final year, a large number of detected faults still equates to a supervision has a lon! g approa ch to go in sequence to be a world-class administration.

For comparison, Taiwan has a race of 24 million as good as a polite use of just 400,000. Yet, Taiwan has one after an additional to emerge as a major player upon a tellurian economic scene. Not bad for a small island which has so couple of natural resources as good as during a single time was chided for producing rip-offs of Japanese electronic goods. Obviously, a purify as good as efficient supervision allows for a flourishing republic as good as a flourishing republic shows up, in any case of a size.

But not usually is it confirmed which a Malaysian manage to buy as good as system is riddled with prevalent corruption, drawn out inefficiency as good as general incompetence, a republic has reached nearby to a finish of a line. Bankruptcy is visible as good as to a extent which a time support can be drawn. Minister in a Prime Minister's Department Idris Jala, who shocked a republic final year by notice of failure by 2019 if a supervision continues with a stream spending pattern, reiterated his perspective upon Tuesday.

In announcing a ultimate investment updates for a government's economic transformation programme (ETP), Idris had this to say, "If a manage to buy grows less than four per cent... as good as you don't cut a handling expenditure, if you borrow during 12.5 per cent, if a annual debt rises to 12.5 per cent as good as a revenue does not grow, then it will happen."

Bankruptcy happens when a single overspends or makes a poor investment

Let us inspect Idris' statement. Exactly, what will occur as good as how will it happen? The answers are, Malaysia will go broke as good as it might come sooner than 2019 unless a lea! ders get their action together. The awful signs of such a incident have been when a republic starts to be late in a repayment of debt or servicing of interest.

This happens since there is deficient cash-flow. Revenue from income as good as corporate taxation plus returns from investment in all prolific sectors have been deficient to cover a outflows. How come? Because a past BN supervision frittered away a borrowings upon overpriced, sterile or loss-making projects as good as ventures!

According to a AG's Report, Malaysia's inhabitant debt rose by 12.3 per cent to over RM407 billion final year, as good as although a manage to buy grew by 7.2 per cent in 2010, final year's fiscal necessity maintained public debt during over 50 per cent of GDP for a second year running. The supervision due 53.1 per cent of GDP, somewhat down from 53.7 per cent final year.

This does not augur good for Malaysians who might right away have to say with additional taxes similar to a GST, just to lift supervision revenue in sequence to cover a handling expenditures such as subsidies. Yet even as a supervision grapples with a idea of reducing subsidies as good as implementing a GST, it must additionally purify up a own act.

Decisions formed upon domestic motives, not receptive to advice judgment

The ultimate headlines of Prime Minister Najib Razak's daughter as good as mother going off upon nonetheless an additional spending debauch in Australia surely does not assistance a cause in asking Malaysians to tie their belts as good as to live frugally.

Then there is a fraud of a RM3 meals. Najib might have paid RM3 for his dish when he came calling during a 1Malaysia restaurant, yet alternative patrons had to compensate in a region of RM4-6 for a dish equivalent to ! a a sing le a prime apportion had.

And whilst meals as good as shopping sprees have been a sequence of a day, a AG's report additionally points out a mob-like inlet a supervision it runs. The ultimate round of everlasting crime allegations against a BN engage a National Feedlot Corporation, a multi-million ringgit plan aimed to get local prolongation of beef to encounter 40% of a inhabitant consumption.

Not usually was there alleged hanky-panky in a project's management, there were additionally allegations of abuse of power in a sovereign government's RM250 million soft loan to a association awarded a beef project. And theory what? The association is owned by Cabinet apportion Shahrizat Jalil's husband!

'Winnable' entrepreneurs, not cronies

But Najib, who is additionally Finance minister, chose to urge such questionable practises. The PM said in a created reply to a parliamentary subject which a association Agroscience Sdn Bhd had been comparison to operate a NFC plan to create Malaysia's "Beef Valley" after a tender routine involving five alternative companies.

However, as PKR plan director Rafizi Ramli forked out, 6 firms creation in isolation representations to a supervision upon a plan which had not been announced to a people frequency constituted an open or public tender. To rub in a salt, a AG's Report additionally criticised a project, as good as forked out which it was right away "in a mess".

Perhaps a Beef Valley plan says it all. A plan of inhabitant importance since a supply of pretty labelled food is essentially of topmost priority, a inhabitant security in fact. But a income allocated as good as a 'talents' to whom a plan is given, have been not formed merit, capacity or track record.

Any lay chairman can see a conflict of interest ! of this messy affair, nonetheless Najib seems to be blind to it. Perhaps, a PM should perspective it in a context of a 'winnable candidates' which he is regularly harping upon for a BN's of candidates to contest in a entrance general election!

It unequivocally is as elementary as that. Choose a wrong candidate, as good as BN will lose. Choose a wrong entrepreneur, as good as Malaysia will lose. This is a state of a republic as it stands now, as good as law be told, all final warning signs have been transparent to see - Malaysia might good as good as truly be broke sooner than 2019.

While a proposed Sungai Buloh-Kajang (SBK) MRT is firm to take a little in isolation cars off a roads of Klang Valley, this is not a approach answer or pill to a fact that more as well as more in isolation cars have been coming in to our highway complement each day.

What is very impo! rtant is carrying a arguable open transport network, that enables all citizens from in a Klang Valley to be means to move around from one end to an additional solely on open transport, in any case of train or MRT.

Today, this is lacking, as well as you need to see a supervision as well as Pemandu residence this lack of a complete network.

Don't neglect buses

The SBK line will not even cover 20% of a Klang Valley population, so, during this rate, many who might be staying along this transport mezzanine might still have to resort to regulating in isolation vehicles to get to their destinations.

Since a supervision is not in a financial in front of to hurl out MRT lines all over a Klang Valley (similar to New York's subway), a supervision needs to concede a importance of buses in office building as well as achieving a network.

Both highly unenlightened Singapore & Hong Kong currently record aloft train ridership than MRT ridership, display a importance of train networks.

Masalah dalaman duri kepada parti Saifulizam Mohamad

2 NOV Pada bulan lalu sahaja Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin dua kali memperingatkan kepada semua parti komponen Barisan Nasional (BN) supaya menyelesaikan segera masalah dalaman yang dihadapi oleh parti masing-masing.

Pertama ketika mengadakan sidang media selepas menghadiri majlis 'Penerangan Perdana Nurani Rakyat Sayangi Selangor bersama Timbalan Perdana Menteri' di Serdang pada twenty-two Oktober lalu.

Kedua ketika berucap merasmikan Kongres Parti Liberal Demokratik (LDP) Ke-22 di Dewan Sekolah Menengah Yu Yuan, Sandakan, Sabah, kelmarin.

Dalam majlis itu juga Muhyiddin yang juga Timbalan Pengerusi BN mahu setiap masalah dalaman diselesaikan secara berhemah supaya persiapan BN menghadapi Pilihan Raya Umum ke-13 (PRU13) tidak terjejas.

Dua mesej yang disampaikan oleh Muhyiddin dalam tempoh lapan hari itu memberikan gambaran jelas mengenai kebimbangan pucuk pimpinan terhadap persediaan Umno dan parti-parti komponen menghadapi PRU13 yang boleh diadakan pada bila-bila.

Walaupun tidak semua parti komponen berhadapan dengan masalah tersebut namun ia tetap memberi kesan kepada prestasi BN secara keseluruhan sekiranya masalah dalaman tidak diselesaikan dengan baik.

Apa yang pasti mesej Muhyiddin itu boleh disifatkan sebagai luahan hati pucuk pimpinan tertinggi. Di hati kecil baik Muhyiddin mahu joke Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak sudah pasti mereka mahu BN terus diterima oleh rakyat, BN sentiasa relevan dalam usaha membela nasib rakyat.

Di saat PRU13 semakin hampir, sudah pasti kedua-dua pemimpin ini berusaha memastikan kepimpinan negara tidak berpindah kepada pembangkang kerana ia boleh diumpamakan menggadai masa depan rakyat. Contoh-contoh yang berlaku di negeri-negeri diperintah oleh pembangkang menceritakan segala-galanya.

Bagaimanapun mereka sedar bahawa masalah dalaman yang disebabkan oleh pelbagai punca antaranya pemimpin tertentu enggan bekerjasama, berebut jawatan dan enggan menjadi pengikut yang baik boleh! mengaki batkan BN ditolak oleh rakyat.

Ini ditambah lagi dengan sikap sesetengah pemimpin yang jelas mempunyai sifat-sifat buruk seperti ego, tamak, terlalu cintakan kuasa dan pengaruh sehingga sanggup berbuat apa sahaja termasuk memecah belahkan parti asalkan kehendak nafsunya dipenuhi.

Persoalannya sekarang, adakah pemimpin-pemimpin sama ada di peringkat perhubungan, bahagian mahupun cawangan sedia menerima saranan yang dibuat oleh Timbalan Perdana Menteri itu.

Terutama di kalangan mereka yang terang-terangan dikaitkan dengan puncanya berlaku masalah dalaman tersebut. Penulis yakin Perdana Menteri mahu joke Timbalan Perdana Menteri tahu siapa yang dimaksudkan.

Di hadapan kedua-dua pemimpin tertinggi negara itu mereka akan berkata yes sir atau no problem sir apabila diminta berdamai tetapi di belakang siapa yang tahu. Hanya Allah yang tahu apakah isi hati mereka. Sama ada ikhlas atau tidak, tuan punya tubuh sahaja yang mengetahuinya.

Menurut sumber dalaman parti kebanyakan individu yang sering dikaitkan sebagai punca masalah dalaman itu ialah di kalangan pemimpin sedia ada serta bekas pemimpin sama ada di peringkat pusat atau negeri.

Mereka terlalu tamakkan kuasa sehingga mengetepikan kepentingan lain. Akhirnya timbul masalah dalaman parti. Perkara itu jelas dan bukannya menjadi satu rahsia lagi. Semua orang tahu termasuk rakyat di peringkat akar umbi.

Pemimpin A tidak mahu berbaik dengan pemimpin B, pemimpin C memburukkan pemimpin D dan tidak cukup dengan itu pengikut masing-masing akan membenci antara satu sama lain, mencari salah lawan mereka supaya senang untuk dihentam.

Inilah senario yang berlaku. Penulis sendiri pernah bercakap dengan salah seorang pengikut setia seorang bekas pemimpin dan lidahnya sentiasa mengkritik 'musuh politik' kepada bosnya itu. Ada sahaja yang tidak kena.

Itu belum lagi dikira persaingan atau lebih tepat lagi permusuhan di kalangan para pemimpin untuk melebarkan pengaruh di kawasan atau negeri masing! -masing sedangkan pemimpin-pemimpin terlibat mempunyai kedudukan sama ada di peringkat pusat mahu joke negeri.

Tidak terkecuali bekas-bekas pemimpin yang tidak boleh menerima hakikat bahawa kepimpinan mereka tidak lagi relevan. Mereka cuba terus menonjolkan diri untuk dipilih semula sebagai pemimpin.

Jika tidak terpilih mulalah bekas pemimpin ini cari jalan untuk memecah belahkan parti. Dengan kata lain "kalau aku tak dapat dengan engkau juga joke tidak dapat". Mereka menanam kebencian di kalangan pengikut.

Apabila berlaku sedemikian sudah pasti rakyat berpecah belah. Perpaduan bukan lagi menjadi keutamaan sebaliknya pengaruh dan kuasa menjadi buruan. Lebih memilukan pemimpin-pemimpin yang terbabit dalam isu tersebut sebahagian besarnya beragama Islam.

Lupakah mereka kedudukan sebagai pemimpin sebagai amanah? Tahukah mereka kedudukan pemimpin sebagai tanggungjawab? Amanah dan tanggungjawab ini akan dipersoalkan sebaik sahaja jasad disemadikan di dalam kubur.

Hendak dikatakan tidak pernah merasa (sebagai pemimpin) mereka telah joke diberikan peluang beberapa penggal untuk menjadi pemimpin dan perkara ini pernah dibangkitkan oleh Perdana Menteri ketika berucap pada majlis penutup Konvensyen BN 2011 peringkat Negeri Sembilan, sixteen Oktober lalu.

Hakikatnya, masalah dalaman jika tidak ditangani dengan bijak ia hanya akan menghancurkan parti. Cuba hayati kisah pelucutan jawatan panglima perang yang juga seorang sahabat besar Rasulullah (SAW) iaitu Khalid Al-Walid.

Pada zaman pemerintahan Khalifah Abu Bakar as-Siddiq beliau dilantik sebagai panglima perang kerajaan Islam tetapi ketika epoch pemerintahan Saidina Umar al-Khattab, Khalid telah dilucutkan jawatan daripada memegang jawatan itu.

Tempat Panglima Perang kemudiannya digantikan oleh Abu Ubaidah al-Jarrah. Meskipun dilucutkan jawatan Khalid tanpa rasa kecewa telah menanggalkan serban yang melambangkan panglima perang dan menyerahkan kepada Abu Ubaidah.

Beliau sedikit joke tidak berkecil hati malah ! dengan s emangat yang tinggi terus berjuang dan berjihad bersama-sama pasukan tentera Islam diketuai oleh Abu Ubaidah demi menegakkan Islam tercinta.

Ketika Khalid sedang uzur, Saidina Umar datang padanya dan berkata "Khalid Saifullah, aku sesekali tidak pernah berdendam dengan mu, jauh sekali dari hatiku untuk menjatuhkan kedudukanmu.

"Aku turunkan jawatanmu semasa kamu menjadi panglima perang bukan sebab aku cemburu dengan mu wahai sahabat tetapi engkau tidak tahu tatkala engkau keluar berperang sebagai panglima perang, penduduk Madinah tersenyum gembira dan ada di antara mereka seakan-akan mengagungkanmu,

"Jika kau pimpin pasti kemenangan milik Islam, kata sesetengah dari mereka. Aku tidak ingin engkau menjadi sebab mereka syirik kepada Allah lalu aku turunkan jawatanmu wahai sahabat," ujar Saidina Umar.

Mereka yang terdengar ucapan ini terus menangis. Mungkin tulisan ini tidak meninggalkan sebarang bekas, tetapi ingatlah apa jua tindakan kita di dunia ini akan dipertanggungjawabkan di akhirat walaupun sekecil zarah.

Jangan disebabkan ketamakan mengejar kuasa dan pengaruh kita sanggup melakukan apa sahaja hingga menyebabkan BN menjadi lemah sekali gus memberi kekuatan kepada pihak pembangkang.

Bersatulah semula, taatlah kepada pemimpin, jalinkanlah kerjasama, contohilah sifat terpuji sahabat Rasulullah (SAW), Khalid al-Walid demi kelangsungan BN dalam mendepani cabaran mendatang terutama PRU13. Utusan Online

Perhaps a alternative idea is to prise youngsters divided from computers games as well as DVDs as well as convince them to take up sport, as well as combat obesity.

It is all really most upon Singapore's agenda.

While a Sports Hub is set to open in April 2014, a SEA Games but it will still be more than a worthwhile venture.

Hosting a 2015 SEA Games will initiate a spirit of volunteerism, with thousands of Singaporeans tasked to be relationship as well as media officers, ushers as well as venue coordinators, among others.

No Hudud please, Were Malaysians

SHARING THE NATION

No Hudud please, We're Malaysians

By Zainah Anwar (10-02-11)

ARE our politicians solid bad, funny or stupid? In this divisive, corrosive, cynical domestic climate of ours, if you were the Opposition, you would burst as well as present my celebration as the celebration of initial as well as viewable preference for the electorate. you would have not usually welcomed the Prime Minister's bold announcements in repealing those repressive laws as well as states of emergency, you would also up the ante as well as proceed the open debate upon how you as adults should exercise as well as suffer our Constitutional guarantees of elemental liberties.

I would be formulation over the next couple of months upon how to build open opinion to reason the Government under obligation as well as safeguard which whatever alternative national security or open sequence laws which might arise will defend my elemental freedoms.

I would wish to have it politically very costly for the Government if it falls reduced or back-pedal upon the promises of approved reform it has made.

Instead, what do you get? An suggest of the hudud law as well as the grave serving of chopped-off Muslim hands as well as feet, as well as stoning to death! What kind of destiny is that?

And you have politicians, who presumably reason the layer of leadership, who simply as well as ceaselessly miss the point.

"It's o! kay to e xercise the hudud law since it doesn't affect non-Muslims." So it's okay for Muslims to be brutalised?

See what happens when the initial Muslim palm gets chopped off for stealing the motorbike. What if the medical team is upon standby to gather the chopped-off palm as well as the plant as well as run to Terengganu or fly to KL for the palm to be stitched back?

What if the burglar was with the Chinese or Indian accomplice who was sentenced usually to the couple of months' imprisonment under the Penal Code while the Malay burglar is now disabled as well as incompetent to get the job, as well as be forever publicly stigmatised?

Or really, could this be the swindling to have the Malays henceforth physically disabled in sequence to justify affirmative movement in perpetuity? you wonder.

"Non-Muslims should close up since it doesn't affect them." But they have been Malaysian adults who have every right to verbalise up upon laws which concede for brutal as well as inhumane punishments opposite their fellow citizens, the majority race to boot.

Who wants to live in such the society when your neighbour, your friend, or your fellow adult have been theme to the cruel authorised system?

How could you live with my demur if you were the Chinese who has witnessed the rape, though my infidel justification would not be accepted under the hudud law? No, you cannot keep still as well as accept such the law.

"Muslims who have been not experts upon Islam should close up". Then please take religion out of the open globe as well as have it in isolation in between us as well as God. But not when you can be flogged 80 lashes for qazaf (slanderous accusation) if you inform you have been raped as well as am incompetent to furnish 4 divine as well as only Muslim males who witnessed the rape.

On top of that, my rape inform could also be taken as admission of illicit sex as well as you could be charged for zina. And even if you could furnish the 4 men, you would! be ripp ed apart wondering why 4 presumably divine as well as only men watched me being raped.

And God forbid if you was singular as well as became profound since of the rape. you would be charged for zina as well as lashed 100 times since my conceiving physically is regarded as justification of illicit sex.

The weight is upon me, not the state, to prove you was in truth raped. The evidential requirements have this impossible. And the indicted assailant will be free from any hudud low mark by simply denying the rape.

And you have been all supposed to close up? No wonder some of our domestic leaders have been bent upon their so-called "Islamic state" as well as "Islamic law" plan since it is so easy to fly the flag of religion as well as overpower dissenting voices.

Even of their domestic opponents most of whom can usually summon the courage to claim: "I am not opposite the Hudud law, though the time as well as conditions have been not right to exercise it." There have been hundreds of commands, exhortations, values as well as principles in the Quran which you omit or violate upon the every day basis.

The authority for us to be kind as well as compassionate at all times, the avocation of the male to yield as well as strengthen his wife as well as children, the obligation of the leader to be only as well as fair in his statute have been only the couple of of these.

And what does an Islamist celebration prioritise as the hallmark of the piousness? The Hudud law. Instead of carrying the domestic courage to say no to the Hudud law, once as well as for all upon so most accessible drift Islamic, constitutional, human rights principles, lived realities so most of their domestic opponents dither as well as hedge.

It is so unin! terestin g which you the rakyat have been theme to this again as well as again. Sisters in Islam wrote letters to the editor, published the book as well as submitted the chit to the Government, all objecting to the PAS attempts to introduce the Hudud law in Kelantan as well as Terengganu in 1993 as well as 2002 respectively.

When PAS recently announced it was changeable from the push for an "Islamic state" to the "welfare state", most thought the care eventually realised which the destiny lies with amicable probity transformation, not with the punitive as well as joyless Islam of dejection as well as doom.

On some issues, it was even looking some-more on-going than UMNO. But the Hudud law pronouncements have jolted us behind to reality. So most in the PAS care as well as the rank as well as record sojourn stranded in Gothic times, incompetent to suppose what probity should mean to an Islamist celebration in the 21st century as well as incompetent to envision what it equates to to be Muslim in the modern, democratic, on-going multi-ethnic, multi-religious Malaysia today.

Footnote: I only beheld this article in the Columnist section of The Star (www.thestar.com.my). It is written by the Malaysian open intellectual, Zainah Anwar of the Sisters in Islam, for whom you have the highest regard.

A inclusive bard as well as author, Zainah has the singular peculiarity about her: she is clear as well as has lots of self-assurance as well as courage to take issues upon similar to Hudud as well as the standing of Malaysian women. She writes in the very highly entertaining style and conveys her message to her readers with such propensity as well as elegance.

Thank you, Zainah. And contrition upon PAS, Dr. Ridhuan Tee Abdullah, as well as others who have been promoting hudud unwell to recognise which Malaysia is the plural society as well as you have been all Malaysia! ns.Din M erican

'They're trying to send us back to iron fist rule'

Human rights NGO Suaram slammed academic Ridhuan Tee today for saying which tellurian rights will criticise Islam, accusing him of attempting to derail a flourishing await for tellurian rights among Malaysians.

"The stream positioning is an try to further launch a country into a dark ages of authoritarianism as well as iron fist rule, as well as to reinstate a culture of fear which have undermined a democratic practices as well as public participation in Malaysia," Suaram programme physical education instructor E Nalini (right) said.

She remarkable which Tee's comments were in await of new statements by former inspector-general of military Abdul Rahim Mohd Noor as well as former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, both of whom "are known proponents opposite tellurian rights".

Tee, who is a Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) lecturer, had in a Sinar Harian column yesterday pronounced tellurian rights was used as a height by a little to fall short as well as ! erode th e sanctification of Islam.

Describing a comment as improper as well as misleading, Nalini pronounced a elemental beliefs of Islam in fact await tellurian rights in a form of amicable justice as well as elemental freedom.

"Ridhuan Tee is reminded which a key events in a story of Islam as in a freedom of Bilal who was a worker as well as a Hijrah of a prophet from Mecca to Medina shall, in today's context, be understood as freedom from labour as well as rights to seek refuge."

Last week, Rahim had warned of a "human rights wave" same to a climb of communism in a past which would bluster a co! untry's amicable contract.

This was later corroborated by Mahathir, who pronounced tellurian rights had been exploited for domestic expediency.

CUTI CUTI MALAYSIA! JOM KITA KE SELANGOR DARUL MAKSIAT!

Apabila diberitahu bahawa Selangor sedang menjadi negeri maksiat terbesar di Malaysia, maka penyokong serta pencacai Pakatan Rakyat akan melencong ke arah lain. Kalau dah tersepit sangat, maka mereka akan segera menyatakan bahawa semua itu telah diluluskan pada zaman Barisan Nasional atau lebih tepat lagi telah diluluskan oleh UMNO. Contoh yang paling ketara adalah dua kilang arak di Selangor.

Irony and anomaly Hsu Dar Ren

NOV 1 One of a main differences between a universities as well as those in a UK, a US as well as most horse opera countries is which whilst undergraduates there have been allowed almost total freedom, a undergraduates have been still being treated with colour as tall school students in most aspects as well as they need university permission to do this as well as that.

Even small participation in a domestic convene could jeopardise an undergraduate's future if someone reported him to a authority.

The irony is whilst there have been Umno clubs formed by overseas Malaysian university students in most horse opera countries, internal university students have been not allowed to even utter domestic await or experience in domestic events, even if they have been over 21. The same person, who can actively plead governing body of a country whilst study in university overseas, unexpected is deemed to be not fit to plead governing body once he or she comes behind as well as joins a internal university as a student.

Another irony is which whilst those internal university students who have been over twenty-one can exercise their votes as upon trial under a Constitution, they have been not allowed to take partial in anything deliberate political. The very action of voting is itself political, not to mention which in sequence to perspective a chairman needs to form an opinion. If he is not allowed to take partial in domestic events, how is he going to form his opinion, other than receiving in a central version of events from a mainstream media?

This restriction upon university students not to take partial in governing body additionally creates an anomaly. Those who join a workforce without delay after tall school as well as over twenty-one can take partial in politics, whilst their counterparts study in universities who have been ostensible to be a creme de la creme have been deliberate not grown enough to take partial in politics. An curiosity which is not only diverting though dow! nright r idiculous.

All these ironies as well as anomalies have been a direct outcome of a UUCA, which places so most restrictions upon a university students so as to suppress their creativity. Any consternation because nothing of a universities have been ranked internationally?

I am glad which a Court of Appeal has right away ruled which UUCA territory 15(5)(a) is unconstitutional. In fact, in my common perspective most other Acts have been unconstitutional too, similar to a a single restricting leisure to assemble.

Apart from a law, as well most restrictions upon a university students run opposite to a target of producing all-round, thinking people who would be a leaders a single day. How a ruin can they become good leaders when they have been not ostensible to sense to be leaders during a most important guidance period of their lives?

In most horse opera universities, students can form any society which they want. In fact, if they cannot find a single society of their fondness to join, they have been acquire to form their own .This creates a milieu which encourages creativity, innovation, as well as sell of ideas. That is what university is ostensible to do, not merely a place to sense academic stuff, though a place where a chairman learns to develop his potential.

I hope a PM can exert his care upon this issue, as well as once as well as for all dissolution those limiting sections in a law so as to capacitate a "blooming of a hundred flowers". We Malaysians need a renaissance of sorts if we unequivocally wish to pierce out of a middle-income trap.

Dont picket, Subra warns workers

The tellurian resources minister says it's illegal to interrupt work sourroundings to protest opposite amendments to Employment Act 1955.

KUALA LUMPUR: Human Resources Minister Dr S Subramaniam currently warned workers not to white picket opposite amendments to a Employment Act 1955.

"If they white picket during operative hours, it would be illegal as well as transformation can be taken opposite them by their employers for disrupting a operative environment," pronounced Subramaniam.

"However, if workers motionless to reason a peaceful gathering outside of a work place or during lunch hour, it is their elemental right.

"A strike or white picket can only be finished upon a traffic dispute. If they white picket upon this particular issue, it would be opposite a Industrial Relations Act 1967," combined Subramaniam.

Asked what arrange of transformation an employer can take opposite employees who white picket as well as interrupt work, he pronounced it was up to a employer to decide.

He urged parties to make "rational decisions" as well as give up from protesting, referring to a programmed national protest by Malaysian Trade Union Congress (MTUC) upon Thursday.

"This emanate has been secretly interpreted as well as manipulated as well as I want a people to confirm who is right as well as who is wrong," he said.

Subramaniam pronounced a strange tenure "sub-contractor for labour" was amended to "contractor for labour" to widen a clarification of a word, as well as that it was not a new idea.

"It was finished to strengthen workers' welfare. This new sustenance was referred to so as to encourage contractors to be registered with a director-general of labour.

"This will capacitate a ministry to m! onitor w orkers who have been being employed. If there is any mistreatment of workers, quick transformation can be taken opposite a contractor," he said.

He pronounced a National Union of Plantation Workers (NUPW) had, in 1997, referred to during a International Labour Organisation-Asia Pacific Regional seminar in New Delhi that contractors be stable as well as registered.

"That was a great suggestion as well as only with this can there be more clarity in managing a complement as well as facilitating enforcement to safeguard a rights of workers.

"The suggestion came from a unions themselves, a NUPW, as well as I do not understand because a same people from a unions, MTUC, want to white picket over this," pronounced Subramaniam.

"India has enacted a Contract Labour (Regulation as well as Abolition) Act 1970 to capacitate authorities to list a sorts of work that can't be contracted to contractors. Employment contingency be direct through a employer.

"Through this, India managed to control a activities of stipulate work as well as only those functions that have been temporary as well as anniversary have been allowed (which have been not a core commercial operation of a employer)," combined Subramaniam.

A 'return to slavery'

He pronounced similarly, in Malaysia, a ministry, through Section 2A of a act, can amend a specific regulations to list down a sorts of work that will not be allowed through a executive for work to safeguard workers have been not manipulated by any party.

Subramaniam positive workers that they will not be banned for fasten unions.

"Workers employed to contractors for work can take partial in unions though they have been still bound by their common agreements with their employers as well as their unions," he said.

He cited a common agreement in between a Malayan Agricultural Producer! s Associ ation (Mapa) as well as NUPW, that was created for workers supposing for by contractors for labour.

"This same process can be employed in alternative sectors as well," pronounced Subramaniam.

He stressed that a amendment was "a mutation of government that will not affect a security of tenure, will not promote contractors for labour, or forestall a transformation of traffic unions in this country".

Subramaniam combined that alternative profitable amendments to a action enclosed payments of salary directly through! banks, Hari Malaysia as a mandatory holiday, a procession to protest about sexual harassments as well as maternity benefits for workers of any compensate scale.

The revisions to a Employment Act were upheld by a Dewan Rakyat upon October 3 notwithstanding widespread protests. It has been termed as a "return to slavery" by some unions.

MTUC, that comprises 390 of a 692 work unions with 802,323 members, is opposite amending a tenure "sub-contractor for labour" to "contractor for labour" underneath Section 2 of a Act, observant that it would not strengthen a rights of stipulate labourers.

The kinship is unfortunate that underneath a due revisions, a rights of stipulate as well as part-time workers will not be protected.

Also, agencies supplying workers to a third celebration underneath "contractor for labour" would become employers of a workers as well as workers will not have job security as they would be underneath a contractor's payroll as well as not be underneath a categorical employer.

The kinship is additionally unfortunate that workers underneath stipulate for work cannot be organised in to unions. The due Bill still needs to be upheld by a parliament as well as embrace stately assent, before it becomes law.
