BR1M FOR MALAYSIANS OR BUMIPUTRAS?


By : STEPHEN YAMAN
THE ISSUE of BR1M is a diabolical issue for a BN government. Bantu Rakyat 1 Malaysia (BR1M) or Bodohkan Rakyat 1 Malaysia - BR1M is 'menyusahkan rakyat, bukan membantu'.
On a afternoon of 30 January, 2012, you was queuing with a throng of about 100 people during a Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri gymnasium during Karamunsing KK as well as all a people were angry since a supervision has to do this, make people humour for pittance?
There were most some-more people outside a door waiting to get in. Some even had to go behind home as well as come behind a subsequent day. There were only too most people with a tiny hope. It is a real shame to see a people including comparison citizens having to reserve as if to desire for a guarantee of RM500.
Many some-more people have to take leave from work for such a meager total of money. The BN supervision is making a typical people look similar to fools as well as beggars. These have been mainly 'bumiputras' with a family income of reduction than RM3,000 per month classified by a Malaysian supervision as poor. Most of a city people do not qualify.
For most aged folks, for a initial time, they have to travel most miles to explain what belongs to them which is, in fact, a really tiny total of income compared to what they have warranted in their lifetime. They commented which which they could have simply asked they young kids to give them if they indispensable RM500 since their young kids have been right away ! educated as well as have jobs of a little sorts such as doctors or engineers.
The officers, who directed a throng lining up, even said loudly which you all have to prove where you opinion (N a little number?). What? Everyone asked if BR1M is a political thing. Then you should not be queuing during a Lembaga Hasil. Everyone asked since not let a BN Wakil Rakyat do a placement of BR1M.
My spin came as well as when you was seated during a single of a Lembaga Hasil counters, you listened an military military officer upon my right telling an applicant to pick up her document during a certain place in Papar. The military military officer during a left counter told a male to pick up his during Tawau.
Does it mean which a single has to travel all a way from Kota Kinabalu to Papar or Tawau only to pick up RM500? It seems similar to a single has to pick up a BR1M document from a residence of a Mykad not where a single lives.
What if my residence in a Mykad is in Kuala Lumpur? Does it mean which you have to pick up my document in KL? So, it is redundant to fill up a present residence partial of a form.
Upon checking my duplicate you was told which my duplicate was deserted due to deficient information pertaining to my dependents. you was given an interest form whereby you have to yield photocopies of my wife's passport, my children's birth certificates, as well as my Mykad (again). As you did not have a papers in hand, you was told to come behind a subsequent day.
At 10.00am upon 31 January, 2012, you came behind with a interest form as well as a requested papers as well as you had to reserve up again with hundreds of people. When my spin came after a long wait, you submitted my interest form as required. you was told to c! all a Le mbaga Hasil after 10 February to check if my duplicate is successful.
So, you had to go behind home dull handed after all a hassles but knowing if my duplicate is successful. The chairman subsequent to me was told which even though his duplicate is successful, he has to pick up his BR1M document from Tenom since his Mykad residence as well as voting station is in Tenom.
So, this confirmed which a BR1M is usually for electorate for a Pilihanraya Raya Umum 13 (PRU13) as well as not for 'bantuan rakyat' or to assistance a citizen. Everyone has been told to pick up a BR1M document from their polling station area.
Many some-more were deserted since they no longer have contingent or young kids which rely upon them as if their wife is not a dependent! To massage salt in to a wound, they were told to line up among hundreds of people, fill up forms, travel most miles as well as waste a lot of time usually to be told which they do not validate to receive BR1M for a little reasons usually known to Datuk Seri Najib!
These have been really typical people with really simple mind as well as for many, they do not even know how to write or fill forms let alone assimilate what is going on. The supervision of BN has betrothed upon TV as well as Radio which they will, for a initial time in their lifetime or 55 years of BN government, yield 'Bantuan' by way of BR1M.
For a little folks, they have usually listened it from their friends. This so called assistance seems to be an additional dull guarantee or an additional political ploy usually for a BN people. But this guarantee is a guarantee made by a Number 1 chairman in a nation. It is no other than a PM, Datuk Seri Najib. Nobody asks or begs him for any promise; he gave a guarantee upon his own accord. If this only an choos! ing devi se or ploy, it competence backfire.
If it was a thing similar to a lot of income such as a Petronas oil as well as gas plan or revenue, a NFC project, joist money, bridges or roads building a whole project, a oil palm income as well as so on, nobody cares because, for a typical citizen, they can never qualify, quantify or daydream it.
But RM500 is something which they could simply assimilate since they would have warranted it in their lifetime. And to hurt a feelings of typical people generally 'bumiputras' with such a tiny total of income is to hurt their comprehension as well as pride!
For most people in a throng of anxious applicants, they were deliberating how astray a BN supervision is in you do this to them. Many people softly whispered which they will know what to do in a PRU13 when determining their subsequent political representative. It is for a 'rakyat' to answer when a time comes since everybody only said they have been ready to vote.
All you got to do is to go around as well as sympathize with a people. It is for a people to practice their right to name or change what had been wrong for a long time. This has been function all over a world. It is right away time to occur in Malaysia.
For a land below a wind, Sabah, it will be a 'wind' of change! Change, you MUST.
