SOALAN BERTULIS
1) Pemberian tanah dan pengusiran yang menjejaskan kehidupan petani
Kerajaan telah memberikan sebahagian Lot 72291, 74267 dan tanah kerajaan seluas 50 ekar di kawasan Kampung Sungai Itek, Gopeng kepada sebuah syarikat bernama Omega Kilat Bina Sdn Bhd. Difahamkan syarikat ini akan mengusir petani-petani yang menjalankan aktiviti-aktiviti pertanian di atas tanah tersebut. Pengusiran ini telah menjejaskan kehidupan petani-petani tempatan terutamanya pembela ikan hiasan.

Majlis Daerah Kampar pula mengatakan lampu jalan di jalan persekutuan tersebut adalah di bawah bidang kuasa JKR.
a) Jabatan manakah yang patut mengendalikan permohonan lampu jalan itu?
b) Mengapa kerajaan mengambil masa yang lama untuk memproses permohonan tersebut?

ceramah

We are organising a ceramah at my area, Teja on 10 Jan. YB Azmin Ali, YB Dr. Lee Boon Chye, YB Keshvinder (DAP), Ust Misbahul Munir (PAS) and myself are speakers.

On many similar occasions, police permit were obtained easily without much problems. However,  when we collect the permit this time round, it’s a big NO from the Ipoh OCPD, ACP Azizman.

According to the letter, he said they “tidak dapat meluluskan permohonan pihak tuan” because the venue is an open place. And he “nasihat” us to hold it in a closed hall.

Bloody hell! Who don’t know that? If I could get a hall, you think I want to spend money putting up tents ar? If the police manage to get us a hall, we are more than willing to change the venue. Moreover, we have organised hundreds of outdoor ceramah, not a single one created any problem.

Anyway, I do not give a damn! The ceramah is on. If you want to come, just come. Listen to speeches, disperse the crowd, or arrest, I leave it to you.

IPOH, Jan 6 – The Perak Barisan Nasional government has decided to kick off 2010 by launching the first attack of the year against its Pakatan Rakyat foes.
Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir, who until recently had chosen to remain silent amid the series of attacks made against his government, today issued a warning to his predecessors in PR: “I will prove to the rakyat what you have done during your time.”
The state leader told a press conference after chairing the first state executive council meeting of the year this afternoon that the BN government was busy collecting evidence that would mar the supposedly pristine-clean reputation of the former PR government.
Zambry said this in response to the recent allegation made against his administration by a PKR assemblyman that Umno had given itself a quota in the distribution of land for the poor under a planned village programme in Gopeng.
While denying that it was the BN government’s practice to allocate land to its cronies, Zambry also hinted that the PR government, during its reign, had been no angels.
“We have some evidence that we are collecting and we will prove this. I can show you the evidence soon,” he said.
Zambry hinted that during PR’s rule, names of those who were eligible to receive land allocations had been wrongfully removed from lists.
“I have always said this – those who are eligible to receive these plots, especially the poor, should receive them.
“If an area is allocated for the poor, for example, then we must make sure that they receive it without looking at the party flags or colours or race. If they are poor, then they must receive, but I can tell you…” he said, then paused and smiled at the media.
He stressed that he was not being an advocate of corrupt practices and said that he was not trying to defend anyone.
“I want to be categorically clear on this – I am not defending anyone who misuses their powers or their positions.
“But I tell you, I cannot accept those who do not follow proper procedures whether or not they are from the government side or they are politicians. We do not want anyone, someone or any party to change the names of the lots supposed to be given to certain individuals or groups who are eligible just because there is a change of government,” he said.
When asked if he was accusing the former PR administrators of removing names of eligible participants under planned village programmes and inserting the names of their cronies, Zambry merely smiled and said, “You will see.”
He said he had tasked senior state executive councillor Datuk Hamidah Osman to collect the evidence.
“Some people speak of justice, that during their time, their government was so much better but we are going to prove otherwise.
“Time will tell. I will show you because they are the ones who challenged us. They claim they are sinless, that they are the perfect human beings who never perform injustices upon others. They say that it is only the BN that performs injustices but I am going to prove to the rakyat what they have done,” he said.
Meanwhile, Zambry vehemently denied that his government had ever practised giving out land meant for the poor to its party cronies.
“It was never a practice of ours to include a quota in the allocation of land meant for the poor. That was why I was so shocked when it was displayed like that,” he said.
When the matter cropped up late last year, it was revealed that a total of 40 out of the 127 plots of land under the Sungai Itek planned village programme had been allocated to ten Gopeng Umno division committee members and to BN-appointed village chiefs.
As the allocation was supposed to be distributed to the squatters, the poor and the landless, PKR assemblyman for Teja Chang Lih Kang, had decided to lodge a report with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.
Hamidah, who is also the Gopeng Wanita Umno chief, had however claimed that this practice was not normal and that the quota had been wrongfully prepared by the Kampar district officer Ahmad Kamarulzaman Hamzah.
When contacted later however, Ahmad Kamarulzaman had claimed that the quota allocation was actually made so that the 40 Umno members and the village chiefs could help the land office identify the poor and the landless and subsequently distribute the plots to those eligible.
When asked if action would be taken against Ahmad Kamarulzaman for creating the quota, Zambry said: “I have directed the issue to the State Secretary to handle. He will be looking into it.”
State Secretary Datuk Dr Abdul Rahman Hashim told The Malaysian Insider later that he would come up with a decision within a week or two.

PENGGUNAAN KALIMAH “ALLAH”

Merujuk kepada rentetan pelbagai kontroversi berterusan yang masih wujud berhubung penggunaankalimah ‘Allah’ oleh pelbagai agama selain dari agama Islam di negara kita Malaysia sekarang ini, maka BIPPA PKR sukacita menjelaskan pendirian kami mengenai hal ini.

Kami berpendirian bahawa, keinginan rakyat bukan Islam menggunakan kalimah “Allah”  sebagai Tuhan adalah suatu perkembangan yang sangat positif dan perlu diterima secara terbuka dan berlapang dada.  Umat Islam di Malaysia tidak perlu menjadi gelisah dan “over react” dengan pelbagai andaian dan kemungkinan dengan fenomena yang dikata baharu ini.

PKR rep wants land released to the poor
By Clara Chooi
IPOH, Dec 30 – A Perak PKR assemblyman has issued a warning to the Kampar land committee to release the 40 plots of land allocated to Umno members and village heads under the Sungai Itek planned village programme or get hauled up to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
Teja assemblyman Chang Lih Kang, who has already lodged a report to MACC on the alleged land scam in Gopeng, told a press conference today that the 40 plots of land should be released immediately and given out to the poor instead.
“If the land committee fails to do this, I will refer all those who sit on the committee to the MACC as soon as possible,” he warned, adding that the committee should sit soon to decide on the final list of candidates to receive plots under the programme.
He said that among those who sit on the committee are Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir or his representative, the Land and Mines Department director or his representative, Tualang Sekah assemblyman Nolee Ashilin Mohammed Radzi and Kampar MP Datuk Lee Chee Leong.
Chang had exposed the supposed land scam earlier this month when he revealed that 40 out of the 127 plots under the Sungai Itek planned village programme which were meant for the poor and the landless had been allocated to Umno politicians, including Gopeng Umno division chief Datuk Hamzah Kassim, and Barisan Nasional-appointed village heads.
He has since lodged a report with the MACC.
Chang also scoffed at state executive councillor Datuk Hamidah Osman for claiming last week that the state government was not aware of the land quota for Umno cronies and that the blame lay in the hands of the Kampar district officer Ahmad Kamarulzaman Hamzah.
“Putting the blame on a civil servant when such mismanagement is revealed is clearly the practice of politics of cowardice.
“The district officer stands to gain nothing from preparing such a quota for Umno politicians so why would he do so unless he was under certain political pressure?” said Chang.
He said that Ahmad Kamarulzaman was being used as the scapegoat to wipe away all blame from Hamzah and his crew.
“Furthermore, Hamidah is not fit to pass comment on this issue because for one thing, the land portfolio does not come under her jurisdiction.
“Also, her sincerity is questionable as she is the Gopeng Wanita Umno chief while Hamzah is the Gopeng division chief. The two of them also used to be business partners in a company called Projek Bitara Sdn Bhd,” claimed Chang.
When contacted, Perak MACC deputy director Norasmi Shari told The Malaysian Insider that the commission had yet to decide whether to proceed with investigations into Chang’s earlier report.
He confirmed that the case had been filed with the MACC and that Chang’s statement had since been recorded.
“We have not decided on whether to proceed yet with the case. However, we will do what is necessary,” he said.
Ahmad Kamarulzaman could not be reached for comment.

Datuk Hamzah harus diambil tindakan

Saya berasa amat kesal dengan sikap Barisan Nasional dalam mengendalikan isu penyelewengan tanah RPT Kampung Sungai Itek, Gopeng.

1)         Pada 21hb Disember 2009, Datuk Hamidah Osman telah mengadakan sidang media untuk menjelaskan perkara tersebut.

Namun, saya berpendapat bahawa Datuk Hamidah Osman bukan orang yang sesuai untuk memberi komen dalam kes ini. Sebab-sebab adalah seperti berikut:

a) Datuk Hamidah tidak memegang port folio tanah dalam kerajaan negeri.

b) Datuk Hamzah Mohd Kassim yang terlibat dalam penyelewengan ini merupakan Ketua UMNO Bahagian Gopeng, dan Datuk Hamidah merupakan Ketua Wanita UMNO Bahagian Gopeng.

c) Kedua-dua Datuk Hamzah dan Datuk Hamidah pernah menjadi rakan kongsi perniagaan di sebuah syarikat, Projek Bitara Sdn Bhd (574287-P).

<Happy Christmas (War is over)>, a song  by John Lennon and Yoko Ono. I love it since I first listened to the song.

Yes, another year has over, a new one has just begun. But what have you done? High time to have an honest self-reflection…. anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Pemimpin UMNO yang rakus, kakitangan kerajaan yang dikambinghitamkan!

Jika bukan kerana tekanan daripada pemimpin UMNO, DO mana nak bagi kuota kepada Ketua Bahagian UMNO? Kenapa tiada kuota seperti kuota PKR baik PAS baik DAP apabila PR memerintah?

Lu percaya makna lu mengong lah!

22/12/2009 – Tiada sistem kuota dalam pemberian lot tanah

Kerajaan negeri tidak pernah mengamalkan polisi sistem kuota dalam pemberian lot tanah rumah kampung tersusun.

Menurut Exco Kanan Datuk Hamidah Osman, sebagaimana yang lain, pemberian lot tanah rumah kampung tersusun juga mempunyai proses yang harus dipenuhi bagi memastikan hanya yang layak menerimanya.

Jelasnya lagi kerajaan negeri juga tidak tahu menahu mengenai beberapa lot tanah rumah di Kampung Tersusun Sungai Itek, Gopeng telah dikhaskan kepada ahli UMNO Gopeng dan ketua-ketua kampung.

BKT

Suddenly “Bak Kut Teh Halal” becomes an issue now. JAKIM argued that Bak Kut Teh cannot be halal because the name itself is not halal.

Sigh…..another typical example of Malaysian authority – jump the gun before understanding an issue properly.

“Bak Kut Teh” is a Hokkien name, “bak” is meat, “kut” is bone, and “teh” is tea. What is so “haram” about the name?
