They wanted me to know that this is not a robbery. And they also left me a ‘message’. What this message means is not too clear at this stage but the knives and scissors they left all over the place appears to be telling me something, whatever that is.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas, my senior in the Malay College Kuala Kangsar and a senior member of Umno’s Disciplinary Committee, wants me to return to Malaysia and, according to him, ‘be a man’. He promised me his eternal respect if I do that.
I cannot guarantee I will get his eternal respect if I do that. I can, however, guarantee I shall not be sleeping at home if I surface. I will either be living in the Sungai Buloh Prison -- while awaiting trial on most likely more than a dozen criminal charges that would include crimes of sedition (probably six different charges), criminal defamation (three charges), the Official Secrets Act (probably four of five different charges), the Multimedia Act, etc. -- or I will be living in the Kamunting Detention Center under ISA detention without trial.
We can safely assume that my many trials will take many, many years (especially when you include the appeal to the Appeal Court and Federal Court) and that I will be sitting in jail without bail while the whole process unfolds. Remember Irene Fernandez? Her trial took almost ten years.
So it really does not matter if in the end I win or lose my case. The sentence would probably be six months to 18 months for each charge. Even if I win my case I would still have spent many years in jail. And if I lose my case and get sentenced to jail I would walk out that same day because I would have already served my sentence anyway. And the remand I would suffer would be longer than the jail sentence.
In other words, it would be easier to plead guilty and get a shorter sentence than plead innocent and then win my case while spending an even longer period in jail.
Megat has guaranteed me a fair trial. He has also indicated that the government can guarantee my safety and that nothing will happen to me.
Megat may want to reconsider that offer. Last night, some people broke into my house in Sungai Buloh. They managed to disable the alarm system and break the door to get in.
But nothing was stolen, not even the box of coins. They ransacked my cupboards and went through all my documents. They were definitely looking for something (or wanted to leave something) and were not interested in stealing anything. My TV, DVD player, etc. were not touched. Neither were the other valuables in the house.
They wanted me to know that this is not a robbery. And they also left me a ‘message’. What this message means is not too clear at this stage but the knives and scissors they left all over the place appears to be telling me something, whatever that is.
I can imagine me sleeping in prison and my wife alone at home not knowing when they will come again to fulfil the ‘message’.
Thank you very much Megat but no thanks. Your people sent me a message last night. Knives and scissors placed all over the place probably mean something, though I am not sure exactly what. Or maybe a bomoh (witch doctor) was at work and this is the ‘charm’ that was planted in my house. That is a possibility. They can’t get me legally so they are trying to finish me off with black magic. Hmm…that’s a thought.
Anyway, to hell with your message, Megat. My message is better. Umno’s and Barisan Nasional’s days are numbered so enjoy these last days of your regime while you still can. The day we march into Putrajaya will be the day of reckoning. And I will make sure I make your people swallow those knives and scissors they left in my house last night.

Azmin: Saya ada maklumat ahli Umno terlibat bakar gereja
Harakah
PETALING JAYA, 27 Jan: Naib Presiden Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Azmin Ali akan mendedahkan satu maklumat yang diperolehinya yang mendakwa sebahagian yang dituduh berhubung kes serangan gereja di Desa Melawati tempoh hari adalah dari ahli pemuda Umno.
Bercakap kepada pemberita, beliau berkata sedang mengumpul maklumat berkaitan sebelum mendedahkan nama-nama tersebut kepada umum.
Selain nama, beliau juga sedang dalam usaha mendapatkan nombor kad pengenalan dan nombor keahlian Umno kesemua mereka yang didakwa terlibat.
“Berdasarkan senarai nama tertuduh yang telah didakwa di mahkamah, sebahagian daripada mereka pemuda Umno bahagian Gombak dan bahagian Ampang.
“Maklumat awal yang saya dapat, sekurang kurangnya empat atau lima orang ahli Umno, malah cawangan mana pun saya sudah perolehi,” katanya yang juga Ahli Parlimen Gombak.
Pada 8 Januari lalu, Gereja Metro Tabernacle di Desa Melawati, Kuala Lumpur, terbakar diserang dengan bom api.
Pada masa sama, beliau mendesak Presiden Umno, Datuk Seri Najib Razak menjawab segera dakwaan penglibatan ahli Umno dalam kes terbabit.
“Saya lihat trend hari ini, survival Umno itu hanya boleh diperolehi melalui permainan isu kaum dan agama.
“Saya harap Umno hentikan sentimen seperti ini kerana ia cukup bahaya kepada rakyat Malaysia,” katanya lagi.
Beliau berkata demikian sewaktu melawat tempat kepala babi yang dilontar di perkarangan masjid Taman Datuk Harun di Petaling Jaya awal pagi ini.
Berhubung hal itu, PKR jelasnya mengutuk sekeras-kerasnya tindakan tersebut.
Islam tegasnya tidak menganjurkan perbuatan khianat seperti itu apatah lagi yang boleh mencetuskan keadaan tidak tenteram dikalangan rakyat Malaysia yang majmuk.
“Pihak polis harus kerah seluruh kekuatan yang ada untuk menjaga ketenteraman awam dan bukan menjaga keselamatan dan ketenteraman pemimpin Umno dan Barisan Nasional sahaja,” katanya.

任何对马来西亚企业界只有一般认识的人都听过丹斯里美加美加纳兹慕丁（Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas）这个名字。总而言之，他是一名四家上市公司的主席，以及其他三家公司的总裁，所担任都是非执行总裁一职。除此之外，他一直以来都是联邦公共上市公司（Federation of Public Listed Companies），以及马来西亚政府企业机构（Malaysian Institute of Corporate Governance）的主席。身为一名受过训练的律师，他也是巫统的政治老将，担任党内的纪律委员会。
丹斯里美加美加纳兹慕丁私下回答……
为何最近您公开劝告您的老同学，《今日大马》网站的拉惹博特拉卡玛鲁丁（Raja Petra Raja Kamarudin）『回来面对烂摊子』（come back and face the music）呢？——吉隆坡李宝拉（Paul Lee）
当年我在寄宿学院瓜拉江沙马来学院（Malay College Kuala Kangsar，MCKK）就读时，他是我的学弟。他曾经指责，一些还真的是严重的指责，可是他却无法有证据证明这些指责。逃出国外，隔空放话并不会给他带来任何好处，别再耍猴戏了，像个男子汉般的回来，对你自己的言论负责。在学校，我们被教育成一名绅士，他应该面对法庭，使用他的事实证明和证人，说服法庭他才是对的。公正是两方面的，他会获得我永远的敬重，最重要的是，他愿意这样做！
※“What maketh a man?”—原文改编自莎士比亚《哈姆雷特》剧一幕三，原文是由国王卫士普罗尼尔斯（Polonius）所说的“For the apparel oft' proclaims the man”，翻译成白话英语即是“Because clothes often make the man”，也即是成语『人靠衣装，佛靠金装』。后来马克吐温也说了类似的句子。现在这句话被修改成『怎样才叫男子汉大丈夫？』（What make a man?）

Hey, this is not a popularity contest. I am not trying to win a popularity contest here. I am trying to end the more than 50 years hegemony of Umno and bring change to Malaysia. And if I am the most hated man in Malaysia for trying this I do not care a damn.
NO HOLDS BARRRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Your 10 questions
Anybody with even a casual interest in corporate Malaysia would have heard of Tan Sri Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas. After all, he is chairman of four listed companies and a director of three others, all in a non-executive capacity. On top of that, he has long been president of both the Federation of Public Listed Companies and the Malaysian Institute of Corporate Governance. A lawyer by training, he is also a veteran Umno politician and sits on the party’s disciplinary board.
Tan Sri Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas, Corporate personality answers...
Why did you publicly advise your former schoolmate, Raja Petra Raja Kamarudin of the Malaysia Today website to “come back and face the music” recently? – Paul Lee, Kuala Lumpur
He was a junior schoolmate at the fully residential Malay College Kuala Kangsar (MCKK). He has made allegations, some of which are really grave allegations, but he has yet to prove these allegations according to accepted criteria for proof. Going abroad and hurling unsupported allegations from afar would not do him any good. Don’t make a mockery of the law. Come back and be responsible for your allegations like a man. We were brought up at school to be gentlemen. He should face the court with whatever facts and witnesses at his disposal and convince the court that he is right. Justice is a two-way traffic. He will earn our eternal respect and mine, most of all, if he is willing to do that!
(Read the other nine questions and answers here: http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/1/30/business/5566395&sec=business)
******************************************
The above is one of the ten questions posed to Megat Najmuddin Megat Khas. You can read the other nine at the link above.
I want to respond to the one question that relates to me. I can, if you wish (and may even do that later), respond to all ten questions -- like I did recently to Shamsul Akmar of the New Straits Times. But then, considering how cheong hei I can be, this piece will probably run into so many pages. Therefore, let me talk about this one question and the answer Megat gave.
This is what Megat said: “…..but he has yet to prove these allegations according to accepted criteria for proof…..Come back and be responsible for your allegations like a man…..He should face the court with whatever facts and witnesses at his disposal and convince the court that he is right.…..He will earn our eternal respect and mine, most of all, if he is willing to do that!”
I think Megat just does not get it. Is he so naïve or just pretending to be stupid? As a lawyer, how can he talk that way? Lawyer ini macam cakap ke?
I have said this before and let me say it again. I do not need to prove anything. I have been arrested and charged and put on trial. It is the Prosecution that needs to prove my guilt. The onus is on them to offer the evidence and bring forward witnesses to prove my guilt. All I have to do is to raise reasonable doubt. And if I succeed in doing that, then the court MUST give me the benefit of the doubt and declare me innocent.
Megat never once walked into court to attend or witness my many days of hearings. If he did then he would probably have spoken more like lawyer and would not have made that very embarrassing statement, which reflects very badly on his abilities and qualities as a lawyer.
An accused person has the right to defend himself in any way he sees fit. Whether it is a brilliant or stupid defence is not for the court (and certainly not for the Prosecution) to decide and interfere in. But when the court blocks certain evidence from surfacing or certain witnesses from being called to testify, then the accused is being denied his right to a proper trial.
If the court wants to fuck around with me then why should I bother to layan (entertain) the court? I am telling the court and the government to go to hell. If they want to play fair then I will play ball. But if they fuck around with the legal system then I walk away.
What is so difficult for Megat to understand this? I am telling the court that if they fuck me then I will tell them to go fuck themselves. Megat can’t even get this through his thick head?
About the other remarks -- “come back and be responsible for your allegations like a man, he should face the court with whatever facts and witnesses at his disposal and convince the court that he is right, he will earn our eternal respect and mine, most of all, if he is willing to do that!” -- again, I think Megat is missing the plot here.
“What maketh a man?” as Shakespeare would probably say if Megat were to address this statement to him. Meekly walking into court without a fuss and bending over so that the court can screw you in the arse is a mark of a ‘man’? I would have imagined that his MCKK education would have made him smarter than that. I can only say that the MCKK education was wasted on him.
It appears we have different ideas about what being a man means. Megat’s idea of being a man is to subject yourself to persecution and perversion of justice. My idea of being a man is never to allow yourself to be screwed in the arse by anyone -- even the government of Malaysia and the Malaysian judicial system -- and if they try to, then turn your back on them, show them your arse, and tell them to go screw themselves.
Different strokes for different folks, as they say. So, being a man to Megat’s perspective is being a mouse as far as I am concerned. Being a man, to me, means the courage to say “No!” And that is what I am telling the Malaysian government and the Malaysian judicial system -- “No! No! No!”
Oh, and what makes Megat think I need to earn his or anyone’s 'eternal respect'? Does he think I am doing all this to make a name for myself? Seriously, I do not care one bit what Megat and any of the other Umno and Barisan Nasional people think of me. Their opinion of me does not matter one bit.
My objective is to try to bring down Barisan Nasional and Umno in any way possible. Barisan Nasional’s and Umno’s objective is to try to stay in power -- by hook or by crook, by fair means or foul. To Barisan Nasional and Umno, anything is fair game, even racism and religious strife. Just a few days ago, Jakim told hundreds of participants in its lecture that another May 13 is looming over the horizon. Umno is going round the country telling its members that there is soon going to be a ‘civil war’ in Malaysia.
Is Megat saying that Barisan Nasional and Umno are noble and honourable and I am not?
I really don’t care what people say about me and what they think about me as long as I can fight and beat Barisan Nasional and Umno at its own game.
Hey, this is not a popularity contest. I am not trying to win a popularity contest here. I am trying to end the more than 50 years hegemony of Umno and bring change to Malaysia. And if I am the most hated man in Malaysia for trying this I do not care a damn.
So, Megat, I really don’t care a damn what you and your Umno people think of me. Seriously, if you and Umno love me then there is something wrong here. That means I am not doing my job. Only when the entire government, Umno and Barisan Nasional hate me and wish to see me dead would that mean I have done my job.
That is my mission. And regard this as my mission and vision statement.

Mencari Kesepakatan Dan Memperkukuh Dakwah
Alhamdulillah wacana berhubung penggunaan kalimah Allah oleh bukan Islam,di kediaman saya berjaya dilangsungkan dalam suasana ukhuwah yang mesra dan bertunjangkan hasrat demi kemaslahatan umat Melayu dan Islam di Malaysia. Kehadiran sahabat lama dan juga generasi pelapis yang muda menjadikan wacana malam ini pentas berkongsi pandangan serta memperkemaskan usaha dakwah. Manakala itu pandangan ulama, Ilmuwan, ahli politik serta wakil organisasi tambah memberkati majlis malam tadi.
Sememangnya majlis seperti ini pastinya tidak sunyi dari hujah dan dalil. Apatah lagi ianya menyangkuti isu yang menjadi perhatian segenap lapisan rakyat, baik muslim atau bukan muslim. Kehangatan perdebatan dan ketajaman hujah yang dihunus menjadikan wacana semalam seumpama kolam yang melimpah airnya. Ilmu yang dikongsi pastinya membuahkan manfaat manakala diakui kegusaran umat Islam terhadap kegagalan pimpinan umno meninggikan syiar serta memperhebat usaha dakwah.
Apa tidaknya demi kelansungan kekuasaan, pimpinan umno membaluti isu ini dengan sentimen politik perkauman sempit di samping gagal membenihkan kefahaman jitu. Jika yang dibahas umno itu isu prinsip asas keyakinan umat Islam, budaya Melayu dan undang-undang negara; mengapa – Sabah, Sarawak, Wilayah Persekutuan dan Pulau Pinang mahu pula dibenarkan.
Tatkala negara berada di persimpangan sebegini, jalan yang dipilih adalah di atas pertimbangan politik semata. Mengapa tidak disiarkan pandangan ulama seperti Syeikh Yusuf al Qaradawi dan Syeikh Wahbah yang bertentangan dengan aliran propaganda murahan pimpinan umno? Kerana mereka menuntut keadilan buat saya? Kerana pandangan mereka tidak menguntungkan kerajaan? Yang pasti, hadirin bersetuju usaha gigih menegakkan Keadilan dan melawan kezaliman merupakan sebahagian dari usaha memperhebat syiar Islam.

Hamidah Osman penceroboh
Adun Sungai Rapat, Hamidah Osman telah disifatkan sebagai penceroboh hak oleh Ahli Jawatankuasa Masjid Surai Al-Falah, Taman Soon Choon di sini kerana mengadakan acara diperkarangan Surau tersebut tanpa mendapat kebenaran daripada pihak pengurusan Surau.
Bercakap kepada pihak kami, Pengerusi Surau Al-Falah menyifatkan tindakan Adun Sungai Rapat tersebut adalah melanggar hak pengurusan surau tersebut. Beliau telah mempergunakan tempat ibadah tersebut untuk meraih undi rakyat.
“Ini melanggar titah Sultan Perak agar tidak mempolitikkan rumah ibadah orang Islam” katanya lagi.
Memetik pernyataan dalam Akbar Sinar 1 Januari yang lalu, Hamidah Osman menyatakan bahawa acara yang dianjurkan itu merupakan sempena sambutan Maal Hijrah dan ia bertujuan menyatukan ukhwah dikalangan masyarakat setempat.
Namun membidas pernyataan tersebut, pihak pengurusan surau menyatakan kekesalan mereka kerana program yang dianjurkan itu adalah program Parti dan bukannya Program Pusat Khidmat Adun. Di samping itu ketika majlis berlangsung, hampir kesemua peserta memakai vest Parti iaitu pakaian rasmi bagi Skuad Sayang Wanita UMNO. Di samping itu, beliau juga mendakwa, Hamidah memutar-belitkan fakta dengan menyatakan program yang dilangsungkan merupakan anjuran anak surau tersebut sedangkan terang dan jelas ianya hanya program Parti dan hanya untuk meraih undi simpati di kalangan penduduk Taman Soon Choon.
Bersabit dengan itu, pengurusan surau juga sekeras-kerasnya akan menafikan apa jua tohmahan yang bakal diterima apabila Dato’ Seri Nizar yang memberikan kuliah Maghrib beliau semalam disini. Mereka telah cuba menjemput Dato’ Seri Nizar sejak dari bulan November 2009, baru la hari (semalam) beliau mempunyai masa terluang. Pihak pengurusan surau juga menyatakan, program malam ini hanyalah Kuliah Maghrib dan ia bukan berunsur ceramah politik dan mereka menjemput sesiapa sahaja boleh datang tanpa mengira mana-mana fahaman politik.

No sabotage in Umno building 巫统倒台的先兆
Isnin, 4 Januari 2010
2010/01/03
KUALA LUMPUR: The missing letters from the word "Umno" atop its party headquarters at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) is a result of poor maintenance and not an act of sabotage, said Umno information chief Datuk Ahmad Maslan.
He said the party secretariat and Putrade Property Management Sdn Bhd (Putrade), which is the management company of PWTC, had been informed of the "damage".
He added that swift action would be taken to replace the missing letters.
"I have advised Datuk Abdul Rauf Yusof and Putrade on the matter after receiving a text message from someone this morning.
"I will make sure that it will be fixed immediately."
Yesterday, blogger Ahirudin Atan of Rocky's Bru posted pictures of the Umno headquarters with only the "NO" and "UO" signs on the sides of the building.
Some claimed on the blog that it was a sign of "the end of Umno" due to the "NO" sign.
Ahmad said it was just a coincidence that the sign formed such a word.
【新海峡时报·吉隆坡讯】巫统宣传局主任拿督阿末马士兰（Ahmad Maslan）表示，位于太子贸易中心（Putra World Trade Centre，PWTC）的巫统总部顶端的『巫统』招牌上失踪的字体是恶劣的维修所造成的，而不是一项被人破坏的行为。
他表示，党秘书已经通知了太子贸易中心的管理公司布塔拉特产业管理有限公司（Putrade Property Management Sdn Bhd，Putrade）有关的『损坏』。

Dr. Lee Boon Chye: Pembinaan Jambatan Kampung Srijaya Tidak Memuaskan
Kerja-kerja pembinaan jambatan di Kampung Srijaya tidak memuaskan Ahli Parlimen Gopeng, Dr Lee Boon Chye setelah meninjaukan kerja tersebut bersama Ketua Kampung Srijaya, En Saroji dan Ketua Kampung Sri Rahmat, En Ahmad.
Beliau berkata, kerja pembinaan yang perlahan dan kos yang melampau tinggi tidak memuaskan penduduk kampung.
“Peruntukan kerajaan yang diberikan sebanyak RM60,000.00 sepatutnya membekalkan jambatan yang memenuhi kod rekabentuk kejuruteraan dan spesifikasi kerja yang baik, tetapi jambatan papan tersebut disyaki tidak memenuhi syarat-syaratnya.”
“Kita perlu memastikan bahawa kos pembinaan tersebut tidak berlakunya penyelewengan, kerja yang disiapkan seharusnya menepati pada kos peruntukan tersebut.”
Terdapat beberapa kelemahan dalam pembinaan tersebut termasuk kaki jambatan dan ketinggian jambatan, jika berlakunya banjir ataupun takungan air sungai yang tinggi, kemungkinan besarnya kaki jambatan akan putus.
Beliau berkata, wang rakyat sepatutnya digunakan secara berhemah untuk membinakan segala kemudahan kepada rakyat. Akan tetapi beliau khuatir dengan keselamatan jambatan ini, seperti mana tragedi yang berlaku di Jambatan Kuala Dipang.

Dr. Lee Boon Chye: Nasib Penduduk Kg Srijaya Batu 2 Harus Dibela
Gopeng, 21 Dis – Penduduk Kg Srijaya Batu 2 meminta bantuan Ahli Parlimen Gopeng, Dr Lee Boon Chye dalam satu Majlis Dialog Ahli Parlimen Gopeng Bersama Rakyat. Penempatan mereka yang berdekatan sungai selalu dilanda banjir sedalam 2 hingga 3 kaki.
Seramai 22 buah keluarga telah menetap di kampung tersebut sejak 40 tahun yang lalu. Walaubagaimanapun, nasib mereka sering diabaikan kerana tapak rumah bukan milik sendiri tetapi atas tanah rezab Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran (JPS).
Menurut penduduk, M. Subramaniam, yang telah 40 tahun meninggal di sini, mereka sering dialami banjir kilat setiap tahun sekurang-kurangnya dua kali. Oleh kerana penempatan kampung adalah berdekatan sungai, rumah papan mereka yang selalunya dibanjiri air sungai menjadi reput dan rosak. Ketika banjir berlaku, semua terpaksa meninggalkan halaman rumah ke tempat yang lebih selamat.
En Manimaran yang merupakan generasi kedua meninggal di sini, beliau mengatakan bahawa, kami seolah-olahnya tidak dapat menarik perhatian pihak berkuasa selama ini. Walaupun penduduk telah berjumpa dengan beberapa wakil rakyat sebelum ini, akan tetapi sehingga kini, nasib masih terbengkalai, mereka hanya berdiam diri seribu bahasa.
“Kami sanggup berpindah ke kawasan penempatan lain yang lebih sesuai jika ada, kami inginkan tapak tanah sendiri yang lebih elok” Beliau berkata.
Ahli Parlimen Dr Lee Boon Chye berkata, walaupun negara kita telah 52 tahun merdeka tetapi nasib rakyat masih tidak terbela. Penduduk tidak mendapat tanah milik sendiri seinchi pun, malah masih hidup sengsara atas tanah air sendiri.
“Sebagai contohnya, Projek RPT Sg Itek yang sepatutnya dilancarkan untuk memberikan tempat tinggal yang selesa kepada rakyat miskin, tetapi kini diberikan sewenang-wenangnya kepada pemimpin UMNO”, tambahan beliau.
Beliau berjanji akan membawakan isu ini untuk berbincang dengan beberapa jabatan yang berkenaan untuk tindakan yang sewajarnya. Selain itu, penempatan yang baru perlu ditemui untuk menyelesaikan masalah mereka.
Semua keluarga kampung tersebut turut menghadiri majlis tersebut, mereka juga membawa Dr Lee memantau keadaan tempat tinggal kampung. Turut menghadiri termasuk Ketua Kampung Sri Rahmat Saudara Ahmad, Ketua Kampung Srijaya Saudara Saroji, Saudara Megat Ikmal dan Selvam masing-masing selaku Naib Ketua Cabang Gopeng PKR dan AJK Cabang Gopeng PKR.

Dr Lee: Gula Naik Harga: Rakyat Diseksa, Raja Gula Baru Gembira
Naib Presiden Parti Keadilan Rakyat Dr Lee Boon Chye mengatakan bahawa kenaikan harga runcit gula bagaikan “Hadiah Tahun Baru” yang dianugerahkan kepada rakyat oleh kerajaan Barisan Nasional.
Beliau berkata, impak daripada kenaikan harga runcit gula akan mencetuskan inflasi naik berlaku dalam negara. Rakyat terutamanya pekerja terpaksa menanggungkan semua kos kenaikkan tersebut tetapi bukannya pengeluar.
Beliau memberikan pandangan setelah Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan (KPDNKK) mengumumkan kenaikan harga gula sebanyak 20 sen kepada RM1.65 sekilogram di Semenanjung, serta RM1.75 sekilogram di Sabah dan Sarawak.
Beliau mengesyaki bahwa polisi ini dilaksanakan khususnya sebagai “Hadiah” kepada Raja Gula yang baru di negara kita.
Lee Boon Chye, yang juga ahli Parlimen Gopeng berkata, pada tahun 2009 Menteri Perdangangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna (KPDNHEP) Dato Seri Ismail pernah berkata subsidi gula akan diperincikan, laporan penuh akan dibawakan untuk dibahas dan diluluskan di Parlimen. Akan tetapi, pengumuman yang tergesa-gesa tersebut ternyatanya kredibiliti kerajaan Barisan Nasional harus dipertikaikan.
“Slogan menjadi janji kosong yang mengabaikan nasib rakyat Malaysia sahaja, kini rakyat semakin diseksakan.” Beliau berkata.
Beliau menegaskan bahawa kini kerajaan telah menaikkan salah satu harga runcit barang kawalan, dan roti putih juga dikeluarkan daripada skim barangan kawalan harga. Tambahan pula mekanisme baru subsidi petrol juga akan dikemukakan pada Mei yang akan datang. Dijangkan bahawa tahun ini akan menambahkan beban rakyat kerana mencetusnya cabaran inflasi semakin melambung naik.
