The Inconvenient Truth About Why Chua Soi Lek Was Sacked

According to Special Branch intelligence, it took just three meetings, arranged by one "Umno Lim" in 1½ months and the deal was struck. Two meetings took place in Eastin Hotel, PJ and one in Corus Hotel (owned by CSL's close friend Tan Sri Khoo Kay Peng).

Those who believe Chua Soi Lek was expelled due to the sex DVD scandal also believe that Elvis is still alive and living out the remaining years of his life in Pangkor Laut Resort. No one, not even Ong Tee Kiat's inner circle, buy the idea. How could they? The sex scandal was just an inconvenient excuse Ong Tee Kiat had to fall back on to give his deputy the boot.

"Inconvenient" because OTK knew the sex scandal was not something the public would easily buy. Not the post-March 8 voters, who's emboldened by the tsunami in the last election, buoyed even further by the LDP's heavy losses in Japan. Voters have wisened up from Umno's excesses and now have low tolerance to even the mildest whiff of leaders trying to subvert democratic processes to prolong their own political lives. But not many people know that OTK had to bite the bullet, so to speak, because he knew real, live ones could end up in him.

It's no exaggeration - in fact, it's even an open secret - that the underworld has already put a price on Ong Tee Kiat's head. Bukit Aman knew this long ago and has dispatched another bodyguard to keep Ong out of harm's way. So, he has 2 persons guarding him now, which is unheard of for a Minister. And it's not any ordinary bodyguard. The Malay chap is from UTK - an elite squad that offers protection to the King, PM and the DPM. It is something Umno's mouthpiece, the NST has also reported in its September 3 issue (http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/articles/17slin/Article/index_html).

To understand why CSL was sacked, let's go back to Oct 20, 2008, two days after the MCA election. The meeting took place in a hotel in Putrajaya. The former Health Minister wasted no time on niceties and went straight to the point: Make me a Minister.

He looked at his boss OTK in the eye, waiting for a response, but the newly-elected maverick president knew better. After all, the issue of vacancy did not arise as Najib had not taken over as PM yet and the issue of filling up a post did not arise. It was months later that OTK found out that CSL had worn a wire and secretly recorded the conversation that night in the hope of trapping the newly-minted president. (CSL had gotten quite close to Edward Chong, an expert on such matters from Puchong, after his tryst in Hotel Katerina was beamed to computers worldwide.)

Feeling somewhat let down with OTK's cold treatment, CSL hatched a sinister plan: call an EGM. That's the only way for him to kill off the president politically. He knew that at 62, time was not on his side, especially since the party's election, due in 2011, could be postponed in view of the 13th general election. And he knew OTK well enough to know that the strong-headed leader would ostracise him. Yes, CSL was planning an EGM when the Ong-Chua team was barely one week into their office.

Drawing from the 1980s Neo Yee Pan-Tan Koon Swan experience, he plotted an ambitious comeback - more ambitious than his election as deputy president following his fall from grace after being caught with his pants down literally. Hence, a covert operation has begun to harvest as many signatures as possible for the EGM to be called.

But CSL knew he could only "harvest" what he "sowed". That's when he went back to the only basics he knew: throw money - not just money, but lots of them - so much that you'd think he prints them behind his mansion at the super-elite Persiaran Mempari in Sierramas, Sg Buloh. The modus operandi worked well during the October 2008 party election. He upset the favourite, Ong Ka Chuan, who had the full backing of the then president Ka Ting, by 114 votes.

If it worked well then (to win the election), it should work well now (to get rid of OTK). The going rate was low at first (RM3,500 per signature). But as pressure built up, he hiked the rate to RM15,000 per signature. Can you imagine just signing a piece of stupid paper and being paid what to many delegates was probably three times their monthly income?

But therein lies a problem for CSL: his cash reserve amassed during his heydays in the Ministry of Health was drying up faster than he could get his thing up with the magical blue pill. This was in late March when it dawned on him that there was another person who hated OTK as much as he did. And that person is Kuala Dimensi's Tiong King Sing, who's made so much cash from PKFZ that he could hire Daim Zainuddin to be his gardener if he wanted to.

According to Special Branch intelligence, it took just three meetings, arranged by one "Umno Lim" in 1½ months and the deal was struck. Two meetings took place in Eastin Hotel, PJ and one in Corus Hotel (owned by CSL's close friend Tan Sri Khoo Kay Peng). Tiong agreed to bankroll CSL to topple OTK. In return, CSL would cease all action against Kuala Dimensi when he becomes the MCA president. In no time, RM100 million was raised.

But OTK painted an inaccurate picture about the RM100 million to his party members during their closed-door briefings. It's not like TKS had given the money to CSL in cold hard cash. Unless you live in Fort Knox, nobody would want to keep that much cash at home. The money was to be given to CSL in phases to avoid easy detection. The one entrusted to handle the cash is Tee Siew Keong, his former political secretary in the Ministry of Health whose hands are soaked in blood because he ALWAYS dragged his feet whenever approached for help, especially cases involving aged parents of MCA grassroots who needed help to get into places like IJN.

The stage is set, the war chest replenished and CSL is ready for his Armageddon. But he hit a snag: delegates are shying away from signing his EGM requisition, no thanks to the sudden surge in OTK's popularity after he came out with guns blazing at "evil contractors" who milked PKFZ like a bottomless goldmine. By then, Tiong was angry he had not been able to "reap", what he had "sowed".

Besides, there was a tacit understanding that CSL would be able to get rid of OTK before the Minister of Transport made public the Pricewater House report, which opened the Pandora Box on Tiong like how the "correct, correct, correct... " video hit VK Lingam. That was the start of Tiong's nightmare, which could only end, possibly after 15 years in Sungai Buloh.

This was when Tiong decided to take matters into his own hands. He made use of his triads link. Everyone in Bintulu knew Tiong as the Godfather of the Hua Kiew Road Gang. Despite opposition from his party SPDP boss William Mawan, Tiong decided unilaterally to expand the party to the Peninsula. He needed a base for his machai to operate from to finish off OTK, and subsequently cover their tracks. Who would believe that a Sarawak-based party could ever find support in Peninsula, which is already saturated with BN component parties?

Tee Keat found out about Tiong's grand design and was not taking chances. One of Tee Keat's informers is his own deputy minister, Robert Lau who is from SUPP, which has always viewed SPDP with suspicion. When OTK shared this with his inner circle, they raised one concern which totally slipped the MCA president's mind: if one day he ended up like JFK, Chua Soi Lek will automatically be the president.

That's when MCA will be under the thumb of Umno, just as MCA was trying to break free from it after the March 8 election. The man, tainted by sex videos would be too indebted to speak up in BN meetings. Besides, several police reports had already been lodged over his oral sex crime and it would be something hanging over him each time he spoke up about getting rid of the 30 per cent quota or ask for more Chinese schools to be built. And if CSL attends international conferences as a Minister, he would be subject to cheeky giggles behind his back by the international community, who has seen him having sex - probably the only minister in the world.

No, Ong Tee Keat was not going to let that happen. He had worked too hard and risked too much to see his efforts, like in PKFZ, being unravelled. The party may not have fully recovered the support from the Chinese community but it's already heading in the right direction. MCA could not go back to the subservient days of Ling Liong Sik and Ong Kah Ting. He knew MCA would go down the treacherous route of self-destruction if the party's Father of Money Politics were to take over.

After several rounds of discussions with his inner circle, OTK made the painful decision: CSL had to be sacked. For the sake of MCA, he had no choice. For the sake of the Chinese community, he had no choice for Gerakan has already gone down the road of oblivion. OTK would not allow MCA to go down the same route - not even over his own dead body.

Did Najib really read The Medina Charter?

Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak says that his 1Malaysia concept is comparable to The Medina Charter, the first written constitution ever created and mooted by Prophet Muhammad. I suggest not only Najib but all Muslims should read and understand what The Charter was all about and see whether what they are doing today meets the aspirations of the Prophet of Islam.

PM akins 1Malaysia to Medina charter

Malaysian Mirror, 2 September 2009

Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said the 1Malaysia concept has characteristics of the Charter of Medina, the first Islamic constitution introduced by Prophet Muhammad to unite various tribes and ethnic groups as a single ummah.

Najib said the 1Malaysia concept was, therefore, Islamic, especially in its content and objectives.

When put into practice, 1Malaysia would make the country more peaceful and its society more harmonious, he told a ‘breaking of fast’ gathering organised by Selangor Umno at Kampung Setia, here on Tuesday night.

He said the Charter of Medina prioritised and protected Islam and gave justice to all communities. It protected minority groups and allowed religious freedom.

All these are principles contained in 1Malaysia, the prime minister said, adding: "Therefore, we must do what is best for the Muslim community and be fair to the non-Muslims.

“Hopefully, in this way, we will be devout Muslims. This is also part of 1Malaysia.”

On fasting, Najib said this third of the five tenets of Islam was a challenge for Muslims, including the leaders, as they would feel what the destitute and poor go through. This should make them want to help the less fortunate.

"This is what we should strive for as leaders. We must be prepared to continuously serve the people, especially the poor and needy,” he said.

Najib, the Umno president, and his wife Rosmah Mansor performed the maghrib, isyak and tarawih prayers with the guests.

Charter of Medina in brief

The Charter, or Constitution, of Medina constituted a formal agreement between Prophet Muhammad and all the significant tribes and families of Medina (then known as Yathrib), including Muslims, Jews and pagans.

The document was drawn up to bring to an end the bitter inter tribal fighting in Medina and, to this effect, it instituted a number of rights and responsibilities for each group and brought them within the fold of one ummah.

The Charter established, among others, the security of the community, religious freedom, the role of Medina as a ‘haram’ place (barring all violence and weapons), the security of women and stable tribal relations.

It also provides a tax system for supporting the community in time of conflict, parameters for political alliances, a system for granting protection of individuals and a judicial system for resolving disputes.

*************************************************

A SHORT NOTE ON THE MEDINA CHARTER

By Kassim Ahmad

The Medina Charter, written and promulgated by Prophet Muhammad for the multi-religious ten thousand-strong citizens of the city-state of Medina in 622 A.D is truly a remarkable political-constitutional document. The claim made by Professor M. Hamidullah that it was the first written constitution (FN1) in the world is not without basis. Aristotle's Constitution of Athens (FN2), written on papyrus, discovered by an American missionary in Egypt in 1890 and published in 1891, was not a constitution. It was an account of the constitution of the city-state of Athens. Other legal writings on the conduct of ancient societies have been found, but none can be described as a constitution. The Medina Charter is the first, and in this it preceded the American Constitution of 1787, considered by Western authorities as "a landmark document of the Western world … the oldest written national constitution in operation" (FN3) by more than a thousand years! It also preceded the English feudal bill of rights, the Magna Carter of 1215, by almost six centuries!

Not only is the Medina Charter important in the sense that it is the first written constitution; it is also modern in the sense that it was promulgated for a plural society, giving equal rights to every citizen as well as giving them a say in governmental matters, as we shall see.

Considering all these, it is amazing that those Muslim leaders and writers who talk and write about the Islamic state seldom refer to this important seminal political document of Islam.

It is to be remembered that Muhammad had become a prophet, reciting God's revelations to his fellow-Meccans, for twelve years before he and his followers migrated to Yathrib, two hundred and ten miles to the north of Mecca. There was going to be another ten years to his mission before he completed the delivery of the Divine message to the Arabs and to mankind in God's final scripture, the Quran. So this Medina Charter was provisional in the sense that it could not contain all the provisions of statecraft contained in the Quran. Yathrib was later to known as "The City of the Prophet " or simply Medina. The reason for the migration was the growing opposition of the Quraisy aristocracy to his teachings and the receptive attitude shown by some Yathrib pilgrims to Mecca at this time.

The whole text of the Charter has been reproduced, word for word, by Ibn Ishaq and Abu Ubaid in their respective books from the original preserved by Ibn Abi Khithamah. (FN4)

The Charter consists of 47 clauses, but due to different numbering, Prof. Hamidullah counts it to be 52 (FN5). Clauses 1, 2 and 39 state the formation of a sovereign nation-state with a common citizenship, consisting of various communities, principally Muslim Arabs from Mecca (the Muhajirin or Immigrants), Muslim Arabs from Yathrib (the Ansar or Helpers), other monotheists form Yathrib (i.e. the Jews) and others who must be at that time still pagans. These constitute a unified citizenry (Arabic term, ummah), having equal rights and responsibilities, as distinct from other peoples.

It should not escape anyone's notice that these two clauses established the first modern nation-state in the world. Although Medina was just a city, its Charter was to last until the beginning of the Umayyad Dynasty in 1661. Western historians cite the Treaties of Westphalia in 1648 as the beginning of the modern nation-state era. (FN6)

The Charter provided a federal structure with a centralized authority, with the various tribes in various districts constituting a unit and enjoying autonomy in certain matters of a social, cultural and religious character. Provision for this district autonomy is repeated for each district. (Clauses 3 through to 11 and 26 through to 35) In fact, many matters were left in the hands of the autonomous units, except state security and national defense. (Clauses 17, 36 (a) and 47) Provisions for these centralized subjects are made in Clauses 13, 15, 17 and 44. Only in cases of disputes the units could not resolve, recourse for their decisions had to be made to the Prophet, whose decision was final. (Clauses 23 and 41)

As Prof. Hamidullah rightly stated, " … this new constitution … brought with it very important, and -- to Arabia at least -- very revolutionary change and improvement, by providing the people with a central public institution for seeking justice, in place of everyone seeking it with the power of his own hand or, at best, that of his family. This epoch-making innovation … brought an end for all times to the chaos of tribalism and which laid the basis for a wider institution, viz a State." (FN7)

It should be noted that this loyalty to the State by its plural citizenry constituted a nationalism, or more exactly a patriotism, that is approved by Islam, contrary to what some modern Muslim ideologues assert. It is in line with the teaching in the Quranic verse, "O people, We created you from the same male and female and rendered you into distinct peoples and tribes that you may recognize one another. The best of you in the sight of God is the most righteous." (FN8)

There were twenty districts each with a chief (naqib) and deputy chiefs (`arif) and its meeting place (saqifah). The city at this time had a population of about ten thousand. Of these, the Muslims made up only a few hundred; half of it were monotheist Jews, the rest being polytheists. (FN9)

It is noteworthy that the Charter ordained equality to its members and protected them against oppression. (Clause 16). The State proclaimed the brotherhood of believers and gave each one a right and support to give protection to any individual, excepting an enemy. (Clause 15). It also extended help to its members in debt or in financial difficulties in regard to payment of ransom or blood-money. (Clause 12). It prohibited help or refuge to be given to a murderer. (Clause 22).

A very important human right is given in Clause 25 where freedom was guaranteed for each community to practice its own religion. The implication of this clause is that each individual was also free to choose his or her religion, in line with the clear teachings of the Quran. (FN10)

Another important principle of statecraft is consultation with the people in all matters. This is stated in Clause 37(a). Unlike in modern democratic polity, the voice of the people, vox populi, regardless of whether that voice represents right and truth or not, is given the highest value. This is a basic flaw in Western democracy. Another important principle of just governance is that no quarter is given to an injustice or wrong-doing. In the Charter, this is stated in Clause 47.

As I stated above, this constitution is Muhammad's ijtihad at formulating a constitution when he was confronted with the task of administrating the city-state of Medina. At this time, he had not yet received the full Quran. He had therefore to fall back on customs and precedents, and he did. In any case, all constitutions are provisional in the sense that it must be adapted to changing times.

A trace of Arab tribalism can be detected in two clauses where a member together with his family were to be punished because of a crime he committed. (Clauses 25 and 36(b)) This clearly contradicts another clause which states that no evil-doer is punished except for the crime he commits. (Clause 46)

Perhaps, in the light of present Muslim interest in an "Islamic state", we should point out that this important constitutional document of Islam does not anywhere use the term "Islamic state" of "Islamic society". The major principles governing an Islamic society are, of course, present -- principles like justice, brotherhood and unity of believers, unity and cooperation among zitizens of the state, freedom of religion, strict adherence to pacts entered into between parties, cooperation to do good and to prevent evil, encouragement for high moral conduct, consultation as a method of government. It is also interesting to note that what has been called "Hudud laws", being part of Islamic Law, is also nowhere mentioned in the document.

It should be noted that the Charter, this first Islamic political-constitutional document, was given to the people of Medina in the name of Muhammad the Prophet (Clause 1) and also in the name of God as well as Prophet Muhammad. (Clause 47) Why two different ways of phrasing the ultimate source of power? It is to be remembered that during the Western Middle Ages, the Church ruled supreme in the name of God, and God's name was, of course, much misused by hypocrites and opportunists. The modern Western practice of replacing God with the people has, of course, not helped matters very much. In the name of the people, oppression, wars, colonialism and aggressions have been launched.

Thus, even in this modern age of science and technology, mankind cannot ignore a power that is greater than itself. Mankind has an autonomous right to live, and to live happily, but he must do that in a lawfully created Universe. It is in this sense that the Charter was given in the name of Muhammad the Prophet, who represented the principle of the good and of right reason, which is higher than the individual man. Likewise, in Clause 47 God's name was put first, as God represents the highest Good and the highest principle of right reason. This is necessary to conduct Man to higher and ever higher achievements.

APPENDIX THE MEDINA CHARTER (FN11)

In the name of God the Compassionate, the Merciful.

(1) This is a document from Muhammad the prophet (governing the relations) between the believers and Muslims of Quraysh and Yathrib, and those who followed them and joined them and labored with them.

(2) They are one community (umma) to the exclusion of all men.

(3) The Quraysh emigrants according to their present custom shall pay the bloodwit within their number and shall redeem their prisoners with the kindness and justice common among believers.

(4-8) The B. ‘Auf according to their present custom shall pay the bloodwit they paid in heatheism; every section shall redeem its prisoners with the kindness and justice common among believers. The B. Sa ida, the B. ‘l-Harith, and the B. Jusham, and the B. al-Najjar likewise.

(9-11) The B. ‘Amr b. ‘Auf, the B. al-Nabit and the B. al-‘Aus likewise.

(12)(a) Believers shall not leave anyone destitute among them by not paying his redemption money or bloodwit in kindness.

(12)(b) A believer shall not take as an ally the freedman of another Muslim against him.

(13) The God-fearing believers shall be against the rebellious or him who seeks to spread injustice, or sin or animosity, or corruption between believers; the hand of every man shall be against him even if he be a son of one of them.

(14) A believer shall not slay a believer for the sake of an unbeliever, nor shall he aid an unbeliever against a believer.

(15) God’s protection is one, the least of them may give protection to a stranger on their behalf. Believers are friends one to the other to the exclusion of outsiders.

(16) To the Jew who follows us belong help and equality. He shall not be wronged nor shall his enemies be aided.

(17) The peace of the believers is indivisible. No separate peace shall be made when believers are fighting in the way of God. Conditions must be fair and equitable to all.

(18) In every foray a rider must take another behind him.

(19) The believers must avenge the blood of one another shed in the way of God.

(20)(a) The God-fearing believers enjoy the best and most upright guidance.

(20)(b) No polytheist shall take the property of person of Quraysh under his protection nor shall he intervene against a believer.

(21) Whoever is convicted of killing a believer without good reason shall be subject to retaliation unless the next of kin is satisfied (with blood-money), and the believers shall be against him as one man, and they are bound to take action against him.

(22) It shall not be lawful to a believer who holds by what is in this document and believes in God and the last day to help an evil-doer or to shelter him. The curse of God and His anger on the day of resurrection will be upon him if he does, and neither repentance nor ransom will be received from him.

(23) Whenever you differ about a matter it must be referred to God and to Muhammad.

(24) The Jews shall contribute to the cost of war so long as they are fighting alongside the believers.

(25) The Jews of the B. ‘Auf are one community with the believers (the Jews have their religion and the Muslims have theirs), their freedmen and their persons except those who behave unjustly and sinfully, for they hurt but themselves and their families.

(26-35) The same applies to the Jews of the B. al-Najjar, B. al-Harith, B. Sai ida, B. Jusham, B. al-Aus, B. Tha'laba, and the Jafna, a clan of the Tha‘laba and the B. al-Shutayba. Loyalty is a protection against treachery. The freedmen of Tha ‘laba are as themselves. The close friends of the Jews are as themselves.

(36) None of them shall go out to war save the permission of Muhammad, but he shall not be prevented from taking revenge for a wound. He who slays a man without warning slays himself and his household, unless it be one who has wronged him, for God will accept that.

(37) The Jews must bear their expenses and the Muslims their expenses. Each must help the other against anyone who attacks the people of this document. They must seek mutual advice and consultation, and loyalty is a protection against treachery. A man is not liable for his ally’s misdeeds. The wronged must be helped.

(38) The Jews must pay with the believers so long as war lasts.

(39) Yathrib shall be a sanctuary for the people of this document.

(40) A stranger under protection shall be as his host doing no harm and committing no crime.

(41) A woman shall only be given protection with the consent of her family.

(42) If any dispute or controversy likely to cause trouble should arise it must be referred to God and to Muhammad the apostle of God. God accepts what is nearest to piety and goodness in this document.

(43) Quraysh and their helpers shall not be given protection.

(44) The contracting parties are bound to help one another against any attack on Yathrib.

(45)(a) If they are called to make peace and maintain it they must do so; and if they make a similar demand on the Muslims it must be carried out except in the case of a holy war.

(45)(b) Every one shall have his portion from the side to which he belongs.

(46) The Jews of al-Aus, their freedmen and themselves have the same standing with the people of this document in purely loyalty from the people of this document. Loyalty is a protection against treachery. He who acquires ought acquires it for himself. God approves of this document.

(47) This deed will not protect the unjust and the sinner. The man who goes forth to fight and the man who stays at home in the city is safe unless he has been unjust and sinned. God is the protector of the good and God-fearing man and Muhammad is the apostle of God.

What game was the AG playing?

In 2007, the Commercial Crime Division of Bukit Aman detained a few Chinese underworld bosses said to be linked to Malaysia’s IGP. One of those bosses, Goh Cheng Poh, filed a Writ against the government. The AG, however, refused to prepare an Affidavit in Reply -- meaning that the government would certainly lose its case and Goh Peng Poh would be allowed to walk free. What game was the AG playing? Was he shooting the ball into his own goal to assist the release of a Chinese underworld boss? See the unprecedented AG Chamber's letter to the Deputy Home Minister below.

Bye-bye, IGP, happy retirement

he IGP actually retired way back in September 2007. The Abdullah Badawi government, however, extended his service on contract basis for another two years. Those two years will expire in two weeks time on 14 September 2009. We hear the government wants to extend his contract, yet again. This means the Chinese underworld will continue to run the police force and decide on who gets transferred, promoted, demoted, and thrown into jail. Yes, they even throw police officers that do not 'cooperate' into jail. And, today, we offer the evidence of that.

Raja Petra Kamarudin

Some of the names on these documents have been blacked out, for obvious reasons. Rest assured we have the un-blacked out version in our safekeeping, which can be revealed if the government challenges these documents as fakes, ‘poison pen’ letters, or lies. And if the IGP gets an extension on his contract, then the un-blacked out version will surely surface to ensure that we embarrass the Malaysian government to the maximum. The world will be told that the Chinese mafia runs the Malaysian Police Force.

Now, let's get to the jugular

The MACC said it tak layan (will not entertain) 'poison pen' letters. It will only investigate signed letters. Well, below is a signed letter plus a detail report implicating the IGP and AG in a crime. They helped a Chinese underworld syndicate boss escape the long arm of the law. Even the Deputy Home Minister said the IGP and AG are involved in this conspiracy. And this is the Deputy Minister's letter to the Prime Minister. Is this enough for you to now launch an investigation, MACC?

P.S. TOMORROW, WE ARE GOING TO GIVE YOU THE MOTHER OF ALL EXPOSES ON THE IGP'S LINKS WITH THE CHINESE UNDERWORLD. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE NAIL IN THE IGP'S COFFIN WHEN WE REVEAL THAT THE CHINESE UNDERWORLD IS RUNNING THE PDRM. [ MORE ]

Okay, MACC, is this official enough for you?

The MACC says it will not investigate 'poison pen' letters. It will 'tak layan' anything that is sent on an anonymous basis. Well, the following is not anonymous. It is not a 'poison pen' letter. It is a police report about what the MACC did to a lawyer. The only thing is this lawyer is fortunate enough to have not ended up dead on the ground floor like Teoh Beng Hock. Is this official enough for you, MACC?

Statutory Declaration of Chong Tzeng Hang @ Ah Han (830210-01-5407)

Wednesday, 17 June 2009 | THE CORRIDORS OF POWER | MalaysiaToday - Raja Petra Kamarudin

In 2007, six (6) police officers and two (2) underworld figures signed Statutory Declarations alleging that senior police officers right up to the IGP have links with the Chinese drugs, prostitution, illegal gambling and loan-shark syndicate based in Johor and which was expanding its operation throughout Malaysia. Another police officer made a police report alleging that his family was kidnapped by the ACA to force him to change his statement while the head of the CCD and his lawyer were arrested and charged for alleged criminal offenses as punishment for detaining underworld bosses under the Emergency Ordinance.

Saya tidak melanjutkan persekolahan selepas itu kerana tidak lagi berminat dalam pelajaran. Selapas berhenti sekolah, saya telah melakukan pelbagai pekerjaan. Saya membantu bapa saya bekerja sebagai penjual kereta di U Want Used Cars, Jalan Kebun Teh, Johor Bahru, Johor. Di samping itu, saya juga mempunyai sedikit saham dalam perniagaan pub dan aktiviti placuran di Marcopolo Lounge, Taman Sentosa, Johor Bahru, Johor. Dalam sebulan saya boleh berpendapatan anggaran RM5,000.00. Saya mempunyai adik-beradik seramai 4 orang termasuk saya. Saya merupakan anak kedua dalam keluarga saya. Saya sudah berumahtangga dan mempunyai dua orang anak perempuan.

2. Saya tidak pernah melibatkan diri dalam kegiatan kongsi gelap ataupun kumpulan thug.

Johnny kemudian meminta saya untuk bertindak sebagai PR bagi aktivitinya agar saya dapat menjalin hubungan dengan PT D7, DSP Hedzir. Johnny tidak rapat dengan DSP Hedzir dan pada masa yang sama saya sentiasa berhubungan dengan DSP Hedzir sehinggalah kami menjadi rapat.

5. Semasa menjalankan PR bagi Johnny, saya membayar sebanyak RM12,000/- sebulan kepada DSP Hedzir dan kami sering berjumpa di Hotel New York, Johor Bahru, Johor. Pada 25/05/2006, Johnny telah keluar dari perniagaan Maropolo dan menyerahkan kepada saya disamping Ah Hwa kerana dia tidak mampu lagi untuk menanggung semua hutang termasuk hutang saya lebih kurang RM170,000/-. Saya bersetuju dan trus mengambil alih perniagaan itu dan meneruskan perniagaan itu bersama Ah Hwa. Pada bulan Jun 2006, DSP Hedzir sudah mula buka mulut untuk meminta sponsor dan katanya sponsor itu untuk No. 1 (Tan Sri Musa Bin Hassan, Ketua Polis Negara). Dalam bulan Jun 2006 sahaja saya telah beri sebanyak 2 kali sponsor kepada DSP Hedzir iaitu sebanyak RM80,000/- untuk No. 1 dan RM15,000/- untuk dia sendiri. Pada bulan Julai 2006, saya telah beri sponsor sebanyak 2 kali lagi iaitu RM45,000/- untuk DSP Hedzir dan RM60,000/- untuk No. 1. Kemudian dalam bulan Ogos 2006, saya telah beri kepada DSP Hedzir sebanyak RM80,000/- untuk sponsor kepada No.1 dan sekali lagi sebanyak RM60,000/- juga untuk diberi kepada No. 1. Dalam bulan September 2006, saya sekali lagi memberikan wang sebanyak RM80,000/- kepada DSP Hedzir untuk diberikan kepada No. 1. Akhir sekali dalam bulan Oktober 2006, DSP Hedzir meminta saya lagi wang sebanyak RM60,000/- juga untuk diberikan kepada No. 1. Kesemua wang tersebut saya sendiri telah beri terus kepada DSP Hedzir tanpa melalui sesiapa. Selain itu ada beberapa kali lagi saya beri wang sebagai sponsor yang diminta oleh DSP Hedzir tetapi saya tidak ingat berapa jumlah sebenar. Sejak dari mula saya beri wang kepadanya, saya anggarkan hampir mencecah RM1 juga. Segala wang yang diberikan adalah secara tunai.

6. Pada bulan November 2006, DSP Hedzir masih meminta wang lagi dari saya tetapi saya tidak mahu bagi lagi sebab selalu dia cakap nak bagi pada No.1. Saya berasa curiga sebab DSP Hedzir sering menggunakan nama No 1 dan saya minta untuk berjumpa sendiri dengan No. 1. Kemudian DSP Hedzir menghubungi No. 1 untuk bertanya adakan No. 1 bersedia berjumpa dengan saya. Pada tarikh tidak ingat penghujung bulan November 2006, DSP Hedzir memberitahu saya yang saya boleh berjumpa dengan No.1. Pada keesokkan harinya. Saya terus pergi ke 5 buah money changer untuk menukarkan wang kepada S$30,000/- dalam note S$1,000/- (30 keping) dan memasukkan kedalam satu sampul surat. Pada pagi keesokkan harinya saya seorang diri pergi ke Melaka untuk berjumpa DSP Hedzir dan No. 1. Sampai di Melaka saya telah diminta untuk menunggu dalam kereta ditepi jalan dan DSP Hedzir datang memandu sebuah kereta jenis Proton Perdana V6 warna hitam nombor pendaftaran saya tidak ingat DSP Hedzir kemudian bawa kereta pergi mengambil No. 1 dan datang semula terus berhenti di hadapan kereta saya. Saya diminta oleh DSP Hedzir untuk keluar dari kereta saya dan masuk kedalam kereta Perdana V6. Saya duduk dibahagian belakang dan saya nampak DSP Hedzir duduk dibahagian pemandu No. 1 dan No. 1 duduk dibahagian penumpang hadapan sebelah kiri. Saya menelek sedikit untuk mendapatkan kepastian samada dia adalah No. 1 dan saya pasti orang itu adalah No. 1 iaitu Tan Sri Musa Hassan, Ketua Polis Negara. DSP Hedzir menyuruh saya jangan memandang kepada No. 1 dengan memberi isyarat tangan. Saya menurut perintahnya dan kami mula berbincang.

7. Saya terus tanya kepada No. 1 “Dato’, saya dengar saya punya kes fail sudah dibuka, macam mana sekarang Dato’?. Kemudian No. 1 beritahu kepada saya “you jangan dengar orang cakap, saya janji sama you, you punya kes fail takkan jadi”. Kemudian saya tanya lagi “saya punya bisnes macam mana? Boleh jalan lagi tak?”. No. 1 kata “you tunggu saya beri green light sama tuan Hedzir, you boleh buka bisnes cara terbuka”. No. 1 beritahu lagi selepas ni mana-mana orang sindiket ekor yang sudar keluar order, boleh beri maklumat padanya. Saya jawab pada No. 1, “saya minta maaf, saya tidak tahu”. Kemudian akhir sekali saya minta dari No. 1 dengan berkata “Dato’, itu bisnes kita letak tepi dulu, tapi saya minta jangan buka kes fail atas saya”. Lepas saya tanya, No. 1 jawab “itu no problem”. No. 1 kata lagi pada saya “Ah Han, saya pun tak boleh lama, saya nak balik”. Semasa saya hendak turun dari kereta saya terus mengeluar sampul surat berisi S$30,000/- dan beri kepada No.1 sambil berkata “ini hadiah pada dato”. No. 1 menyuruh saya meletakkan sampul surat itu ditempat handbrek berdekatan dengan begnya.

8. Pada 28/12/2006, saya telah diberitahu oleh seorang pegawai D7, IPK Johor yang order 3(1) telah keluar. Lepas saya tahu saya terus telefon DSP Hedzir dan bertanya kepadanya bagaimana dengan janjinya tempoh hari berkaitan kes fail saya, kenapa masih keluar order 3(1). DSP Hedzir beritahu saya supaya sabar dan meminta wang lagi dari saya sebanyak RM20,000/- sebagai sponsor. Saya tidak beri dan sejak dari DSP Hedzir tidak menghubungi saya lagi sehinggalah saya ditangkap 3(1) pada 21/02/2007. Segala pembayaran kepada DSP Hedzir adalah wang dari hasil perniagaan saya di Marcopolo.

9. Saya merasa telah ditipu dan dianiaya kerana wang telah pun dibayar tetapi janji tidak ditunai.


Dan saya membuat pengakuan ini dengan sesungguhnya mempercayai bahawa yang sama adalah benar dan mengikut peruntukan Akta Akuan Berkanun, 1960.

THE CORRIDORS OF POWER | Raja Petra Kamarudin | Tuesday, 09 June 2009 | MalaysiaToday

AKUAN BERKANUN

Saya, Hong Kin Hock (G/10990) yang beralamat ……………………………………………………………………….. dengan ini sesungguhnya dan seikhlasnya berikrar dan menyatakan seperti berikut:-

1. Saya bekerja sebagai seorang pegawai polis berpangkat Assisten Superintenden Polis (ASP) di Cawangan Operasi/Bantuan Teknik Jabatan Siasatan Jenayah Komersial (JSJK), Kompleks Kerajaan, Bukit Perdana, Jalan Dato’ Onn 50502 Kuala Lumpur. Sebagai pegawai JSJK, saya menerima arahan dari pegawai atasan di JSJK. Saya membuat Akuan ini demi menjaga keselamatan peribadi dan integriti saya sebagai seorang pegawai polis berhubung tugasan dan siasatan yang saya lakukan dan arahan yang saya terima.


2. Pada 20/06/2006, saya menerima arahan daripada YDH Dato’ Pengarah JSJK melalui ACP Hamzah Md Som, KPP Operasi untuk mengumpul maklumat-maklumat mengenai kegiatan ceti haram di kawasan Johor dan Melaka, terutamanya yang melibatkan Sindiket Along “Tangkak Kia” yang dikatakan sangat aktif and mempunyai rangkaian di seluruh Malaysia. Saya telah menghantar 5 anggota detektif untuk membuat siasatan dan pengumpulan maklumat di Johor dan Melaka.

3. Pada 24/10/2006, susulan dari siasatan ini saya telah berjumpa dengan “Sumber“ yang mendedahkan beberapa maklumat mengenai kegiatan ceti haram di Tangkak, oleh penama yang dikenali sebagai Ah Kooi, Ah Seng, Ah Hang dan Tengku. Sumber dedahkan bahawa disamping terlibat kegiatan ceti haram, mereka juga terlibat dalam kegiatan haram lain seperti ekor haram, bookie bola dan bookie lumba kuda. Sindiket ini dikatakan sering menggunakan nama YDH Tan Sri KPN untuk melindungi aktiviti mereka tetapi tiada bukti jelas menunjukkan terdapatnya hubungan sedemikian.

4. Pada 20/01/2007, Sumber memberitahu saya bahawa seorang kawannya yang dikenali sebagai Richard adalah sangat rapat dengan YDH Tan Sri KPN dan banyak membantu kawan-kawan dalam pasukan polis untuk dinaikkan pangkat. Sumber meminta saya untuk memberi butir-butir peribada saya kepada Richard untuk disampaikan kepad YDH Tan Sri KPN. Saya tidak membantah dan memberi nombor polis, nama dan tempat tugas saya yang terkini.

5. Pada 24/03/2007 jam 1500 – 1600, dalam perjumpaan ini beliau memberitahu saya bahawa Ah Kooi dan Ah Sang (Melaka) telah bergaduh kerana masalah kewangan. Orang yang menjadi batu api adalah Tengku (Johor). Hal ini telah saya maklumkan kepada ACP Hamzah bin Md Som dan juga YDH Dato’ PJSJK. Pada masa yang sama Sumber juga memberitahu bahawa Richard memaklumkan bahawa nama saya telah diberikan kepada YDH Tan Sri KPN dan kemungkinan bila-bila masa Tan Sri akan memanggil saya.

6. Pada 23/04/2007 jam 2030 – 2100, saya diberitahu oleh Sumber bahawa pihak sindiket Tengku mengetahui Orang Tahanan (OT) Ong Yong Hoe telah disoal siasat oleh pegawai JSJK Bukit Aman dan mereka sedang menyiasat siapa pegawai tersebut dan tujuan soal siasat dijalankan. Saya tidak menafikan bahawa saya telah membuat soal siasat tersebut atas arahan YDH Dato’ PJSJK untuk mendapatkan maklumat-maklumat ceti haram. Sumber juga meminta saya supaya berhati-berhati kerana kemungkinan pihak Tengku akan menggunakan pengaruh mereka terhadap saya jika apa-apa berlaku.

7. Pada 22/05/2007 jam 1530, ketika sedang menjalankan serbuan bersabit “Ops. Tiong“ dikawasan Kondominium Heritage, Setapak, saya telah menerima panggilan telefon daripada Sumber bahawa Richard telah mengaturkan perjumpaan saya dengan YDH Tan Sri KPN pada jam 1700 bertempat dirumah Tan Sri, dan Sumber bersetuju untuk pergi bersama-sama saya dengan menaiki kereta saya.

8. Pada 22/05/2007 jam 1630–1730, semasa dalam perjalanan ke rumah Tan Sri di Jalan Gasing, Petaling Jaya, saya telah bertanya kepada Sumber tujuan Tan Sri hendak berjumpa dengan saya. Sumber beritahu bahaw Richard telah berikan butir-butir peribadi saya dan kemungkinan Tan Sri hendak berjumpa untuk “temuduga“. Bila ditanya apakah perlu saya beritahu jika Tan Sri bertanya mengenai hal di Skudai yang mungkin dalam pengetahuannya. Sumber cadang agar saya beritahu hal sebenar iaitu saya hanya menjalankan tugas atas arahan Pengarah JSJK dan tidak tahu hal-hal lain.

9. Pada 22/05/2007 jam 1915–1930, perjumpaan telah dibuat dengan Tan Sri KPN dengan kehadiran bersama Sumber. Antara perkara-perkara yang berbangkit adalah seperti berikut:-

Sebaik sahaja masuk ke rumah, Tan Sri KPN telah mempersilakan kami untuk duduk dan terus bertanya siapa saya dan tujuan saya berjumpa dengan beliau. Saya diam seketika dan terus melihat “Sumber“ dengan harapan beliau dapat menjelaskan tujuan sebenar perjumpaan ini. Sumber terus beritahu Tan Sri tentang nama Richard. Tanpa berfikir panjang, saya terus beritahu Tan Sri bahawa pada 17/04/2007 saya telah diarahkan oleh YDH Dato’ PJSJK untuk membuat satu rakaman percakapan risikan ke atas seorang lelaki Cina di IPD Skudai yang merupakan tahanan Emergency Ordinan (“EO“) oleh JSJ. Apabila ditanya, saya dedahkan nama OT tersebut adalah Ong Yang Hoe. Saya juga diberitahu bahawa selepas selesai rakaman percakapan ini, saya mendapat berita bahawa ada siasatan sedang dibuat oleh pihak tertentu ke atas saya atas sebab-sebab yang tidak saya ketahui. Kemudian YDH Tan Sri telah bertanyakan beberapa soalan seperti berikut:-

(a) Saya memberitahu bahawa pada 16/04/2007 selepas menerima arahan ini, saya telah maklumkan kepada DSP Mohd Salleh, PP Operasi tentang tujuan dan arahan Dato PJSJK. DSP Mohd Salleh, telah mengatur untuk saya berjumpa dengan Insp. D7 (nama tak ingat) di IPD Skudai. Saya tiba di IPD Skudai pada 17/04/2007 dan dengan kerjasama seorang anggota D7 IPD Skudai (nama tak ingat) saya telah berjaya berjumpa dengan OT Ong dan rakaman dijalankan di Bilik Mesyuarat IPD Skudai.

(b) Saya memberitahu bahwa saya tidak tahu dan saya telah diarahkan oleh Dato’ PJSJK untuk membuat rakaman risikan ke atas OT ini dengan tujuan mendapatkan maklumat mengenai ceti haram terutama yang melibatkan sindiket di Johor dan Melaka;

(c) Saya diberitahu bahawa saya telah bertanyakan OT Ong tentang penglibatannya dalam kegiatan ceti haram, tetapi OT Ong menafikan penglibatannya dalam kegiatan ceti haram kecuali penglibatan dalam ekor haram yang mana telah beliau berhenti sejak 2006. OT Ong juga berasa hairan kenapa kini beliau boleh ditangkap dan dituduh atas kesalahan EO. Pada masa yang sama OT Ong ada beritahu bahaw dia tahu ada kumpulan ceti haram dikenali sebagai “Tangkak Kia“ yang sangat aktif di Johor dan sangat ganas tetapi tiada maklumat-maklumat mengenai mereka;

(d) Saya memberitahu bahawa saya terpaksa merakam segala pendedahan haram yang dibuat oleh OT Ong memandangkan saya telah berada di Skudai dan “statement“ ini perlu disiapkan kerana ia menjadi tanggungjawab saya mendapatkan semua pendedahan yang hendak dibuat oleh OT Ong untuk dimajukan kepada YDH Dato’ PJSJK. Saya terus mencatatkan segala yang OT Ong hendak dedahkan kepada pihak polis. Seperti biasa saya ada menganjurkan beberapa soalan seperti siapa ketua sindiket ekor haram. OT Ong ada dedahkan bahawa dia bekerja dengan Heng Kiah (juga dikenali dengan panggilan Allen oleh orang lain). OT Ong juga ada dedahkan boss Heng Kiah adalah Tengku yang beliau tahu berasal dari Tangkak, tetapi tidak tahu samaada Tengku ada terlibat dalam kegiatan ceti haram.

(e) Pada masa ini saya dapati YDH Tan Sri berasa hairan dan beritahu bahawa semasa JSJ buat rakaman tidak pula OT Ong mendedahkan nama Tengku dan kini bila JSJK rakam OT Ong dedahkan pula nama Tengku. Tan Sri kemudian didapati membuat panggilan kepada seseorang dengan beliau panggil sebagai “Dato Khalid” dan bertanyakan mengenai pengetahuannya tentang pengawai JSJK yang telah diarahkan oleh Pengarah JSJK untuk membuat rakaman ke atas tahanan EO di Skudai yang bernama Ong Yong Hoe. Dalam nada yang tegasTan Sri juga telah mengarahkan “Dato’ Khalid” untuk menyiasat mengapa pegawai JSJK boleh membuat rakaman percakapan tahanan EO tanpa pengetahuan pihak JSJ. Selepas berbual, Tan Sri beritahu saya bahawa tindakan telah dibuat dimana kes fail OT Ong telah pun dihantar kepada KKDN untuk tindakan.

(f) Saya maklumkan bahawa selepas kembali di pejabat, oleh kerana arahan ini disampaikan terus daripada YDH Dato’ PJSJK, saya telah menghantar laporan ini terus kepada YDH Dato PJSJK disamping memberi taklimat ringkas. Tan Sri kemudian mahu saya laporkan perkara ini kepada Bahagian Tatatertib kerana merasa sesuatu tidak kena kerana saya dari JSJK telah diarah membaut rakaman seorang OT yang sedang di siasat JSJ tanpa terlebih dahulu mendapat kebenaran JSJ ataupun tanpa pengetahuan pihak JSJ. Saya dapati Tan Sri terus menghubungi seorang pegawai Tatatertib dan meminta nombor telefon saya untuk diberikan kepada pegawai tersebut. Kemudian, Tan Sri memberitahu saya bahawa pegawai Tatatertib bernama Supt Nava akan hubungi saya dan meminta saya berjumpa dengan beliau esok unuk laporkan bagaimana saya boleh mendapat arahan PJSJK untuk menyiasat seorang OT dari JSJ tanpa mendapat kebenaran JSJ terlebih dahulu. Saya terpaksa mematuhi arahan Tan Sri dengan memberikan nombor telefon saya. Selepas lebih kurang lima minit, Supt Nava telah hubungi saya dan mahu saya berjumpa beliau esok pada jam 0900. Saya menjawab “ya”.

10. Pada 22/05/2007 jam 2030, selepas perjumpaan ini, saya merasa sesuatu tidak kena kerana hajat perjumpaan saya adalah seperti yang telah saya jelas seperti di atas. Saya kemudian terus menghantar SMS kepada ACP Hamzah Md Som maklumkan bahawa Bahagian Tatatertib ingin temuduga saya bersabit kes soal siasat di Skudai tempoh hari. Saya kemudian mendapat SMS kembali daripada ACP Hamzah untuk berjumpa dengan YDH Dato’ PJSJK pada keesokkan hari.

11. Pada 23/05/2007 jam 0915, saya menerima panggilan daripada Supt. Navamaney untuk berjumpa di pejabatnya di Tingkat 13, Bukit Aman. Tetapi saya beritahu bahawa saya terpaksa mendapat kebenaran daripada Pengarah JSJK terlebih dahulu sebelum boleh berjumpa beliau. In sepatutnya di fahami oleh Supt. Nava kerana saya adalah seorang pegawai JSJK dan tidak boleh melanggar arahan pegawai atasan saya di JSJK.

12. Pada 23/05/2007 jam 0950, saya telah berjumpa dengan YDH Dato’ Pengarah JSJK dan memberitahu tentang perjumpaan saya dengan YDH Tan Sri pada petang 22/05/2007 dan arahan untuk saya berjumpa dengan Supt. Navamaney, Bahagian Tatatertib. YDH Dato’ Pengarah memberi arahan supaya saya tidak berjumpa dengan Supt. Nava sehingga Dato’ Pengarah JSJK memberi kebenaran.

13. Pada 23/05/2007 jam 1030, saya menerima panggilan telefon dari Supt Navamany samada boleh berjumpa beliau sekarang. Saya maklumkan bahawa saya masih belum menerima arahan/kebenaran daripada YDH Dato’ Pengarah JSJK.

14. Pada 23/05/2007 jam 1530, sekali lagi saya menerima panggilan telefon dari Supt Navamaney, dan saya maklumkan bahawa kebenaran/arahan masih belum diperolehi daripada YDH Dato’ PJSJK. Saya juga beritahu Supt. Navamaney bahawa saya akan hubungi beliau sebaik sahaja mendapat kebenaran daripada YDH Dato’ PJSJK.

15. Pada 28/05/2007 jam 1030, ketika berada di Pulau Pinang, saya telah menerima SMS Supt. Nava bertanyakan bila boleh berjumpa dengan beliau. Saya membuat panggilan kembali memberitahu bahawa saya masih belum mandapat kebenaran/arahan daripada YDH Dato’ Pengarah JSJK, dan pada masa ini saya sedang menjalankan siasatan rasmi di Pulau Pinang.

16. Adalah saya mengatakan bahawa sebagai seorang pegawai polis, saya merasa amat tertekan bahawa tindakan saya mematuhi arahan pegawai atasan saya di JSJK dalam menjalankan risikan terhadap kegiatan ceti haram dan membuat rakaman risikan ke atas OT Ong yang membabitkan nama Tengku dan untuk memperolehi maklumat mengenai ceti haram, terutama yang melibatkan sindiket di Johor dan Melaka, boleh menyebabkan saya dikenakan siasatan oleh Bahagian Tatatertib.

Dan saya membuat pengakuan ini dengan sesungguhnya mempercayai bahawa yang sama adalah benar dan mengikut peruntukan Akta Akuan Berkanun, 1960.

NST Editorial: Feast of lies

This is the mentality of the Old Malay. But the Old Malay is finding out that the New Malay does not think like this at all. The New Malay has different values from the Old Malay. And the Old Malays are getting lesser while there are more New Malays emerging.

Monday, 01 June 2009 | NO HOLDS BARRED | Raja Petra Kamarudin

Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
And a silver sixpence in her shoe

This is an old English wedding tradition that goes back to the Roman days. It is supposed to be a sort of good luck for the bride. ‘Old’ represents traditions. ‘New’ represents optimism of a good future ahead of you. ‘Borrowed’ means you can depend on your old friends and family. In ancient Rome, brides wore blue to symbolise love, modesty, and fidelity. And a sixpence in her shoe dates back to a Scottish custom of the groom putting a silver coin under his foot for good luck

Today, let us look at something old (the older Umno generation) and something new (what the young minds think). You will find that the rationale of the Melayu Lama and Melayu Baru are a world apart.

The Old Malays still talk about ‘orang Melayu and the support they give Umno’. The argument for Barisan Nasional (meaning an Umno candidate) to contest in yesterday’s by-election in Penanti is so that the Malays would have a party to vote for. If Umno did not contest the seat then the Malays would not be able to vote.

And many Malays did not vote yesterday. The voter turnout was about 25-30% less than what it should have been. Only 7,000 or so voted. 3,000-3,500 stayed home or went for the free tour to Thailand that Umno sponsored on Polling Day.

Assuming these 3,000-3,500 came out to vote and they had all voted for Umno, then the Pakatan Rakyat candidate would have won with a majority of just 2,000-2,500 as what Malaysia Today had predicted even before the names of the candidates were revealed and when it was not known yet that Umno would boycott the by-election.

If you look at the arguments from people like Kadir Jasin, whom can be classified as Old Malay, you can see that his reasoning as to why Umno should contest is so that the Malays can vote. If Umno does not contest then the Malays would not be able to vote. They equate Malays with Umno, and vice-versa, and not contesting the Penanti by-election would mean you are denying the Malays the chance to vote.

It never occurred to the Old Malays that there is still life after Umno and if Umno does not contest this would not mean the end of the world. Why do the Malays need Umno? Simple, because it is a Malay party and a party that safeguards Malay interests. That and only that is the reason.

But the Malays of today, the Melayu Baru, look beyond Malay interests. This, however, must not be interpreted as treacherous or pendeharka Malays who sell out their fellow Malays -- as what some Umno people would say. It is just that they see life as more than just communal interests. There is more to life than just worrying about Malay interests. We also need to consider what these Malays in power can do for the nation at large.

This may be difficult for the Old Malays to understand. What can be more important than Malay interest? Surely Malay interest is the one and only consideration. Well, maybe so to the Old Malays. But to the New Malays there are also things like transparency and good governance, an end to abuse of power and corruption, an independent judiciary and better laws, freedom of association and expression, and those other things that Umno would label as ‘Western values’.

The Old Malays like Kadir Jasin are not stupid. In fact, if you know him personally, you will know that he is one smart cookie. So why does he still talk like he is a country bumpkin? Does he not realise that there is more to life than just communal interests?

Of course he does. As I said, he is not stupid. But Kadir Jasin, the Old Malay, believes that Malay interests override all other considerations. The ends justify the means. Okay, maybe we have rampant corruption plus all the other ills you can think of in a failed state or banana republic. But these are necessary evils. This is collateral damage. This is what we must endure to ensure that Malay interests are protected.

This is the mentality of the Old Malay. But the Old Malay is finding out that the New Malay does not think like this at all. The New Malay has different values from the Old Malay. And the Old Malays are getting lesser while there are more New Malays emerging.

In time, there will be more New Malays than Old Malays at the ballot box. If we can convince the five million Malaysians eligible to vote, but not registered as voters yet, to come out and get registered, and if we can convince them to actually come out to vote come the next general election, then we will find that the Old Malays will be reduced to a minority in a sea of black T-shirts, metaphorically speaking of course.

Can we embark on a voter-get-voter campaign? For every one of you who is already a registered voter, convince someone you know who is not yet a registered voter to go register as a voter. Then, in time, people like Kadir Jasin will be a thing of the past while people like Anak Muda Melayu will rule the day.

Voting should no longer be seen as a right. It should be regarded as a responsibility. Young people should be told it is their duty to vote. And to able to vote they must first register as a voter.

About half the registered voters came out to vote yesterday in Penanti. That works out to about one-third the eligible voters. That is not good enough. We need more than double that to really see change. Even if half the registered voters vote for the opposition, Barisan Nasional will still form the government. That is the reality of the Gerrymandering system that Malaysia practices. Short of 60% votes for the opposition, Barisan Nasional can never be kicked out. So we need more voters and we need more of these voters to think like the Melayu Baru, not like the Melayu Lama.

Tidak Wajar Boikot Pilihan Raya Kecil
A Kadir Jasin, 20 April 2009

WALAUPUN Perdana Menteri, Mohd Najib Abdul Razak, “tidak ketepikan apa juga kemungkinan,” termasuk memulaukan pilihan raya kecil (PRK) Dewan Undangan Negeri Penanti, Pulau Pinang, saya rasa adalah amat merugikan jika Barisan Nasional mengaku kalah sebelum bertarung.

Sekiranya BN memulaukan PRK itu atas apa jua alasan, ia adalah tindakan yang tidak demokratik, cetek fikiran dan merugikan pengundi.

Sebagai sebuah pertubuhan yang mendakwa sedang melakukan penambahbaikan dan restorasi, Umno wajib meyakinkan parti-parti komponen BN yang lain bahawa BN wajib bertanding di DUN Penanti.

Sikap menyerah kalah atau defeatist akan menyebabkan lebih ramai pengundi hilang keyakinan BN dan parti-parti komponennya. Umno dan BN perlu mempamerkan tahap keyakinan dan semangat juang yang tinggi.

BN mungkin tidak berjaya merampas semula kerusi itu daripada Parti Keadilan Rakyat tetapi ia masih mempunyai penyokong yang ramai yang pasti kecewa jika ia tidak bertanding.

Pada pilihan raya umum 2008, Mohammad Fairus Khairuddin (PKR) mendapat 7,346 undi manakala Abdul Jalil Abdul Majid (BN) memperoleh 5,127 undi memberikan kelebihan 2,219 undi kepada Mohammad Fairus.

Lagipun, kalau betul analisis yang mengatakan semakin ramai pengundi Melayu di Bukit Gantang dan Bukit Selambau kembali menyokong BN pada PRK baru-baru ini, adalah sangat tidak bijak bagi BN memulaukan PRK Penanti.

Orang Melayu yang ingin kembali menyokong Umno dan BN kerana bertambah yakin dengan kepemimpinan Umno dan negara sekarang akan kecewa dan hilang semangat.

CHE DET TAK FAHAM ORANG MUDA
Anak Muda Melayu

Dalam blog CheDet (http://chedet.co.cc/chedetblog/2009/04/the-generation-gap.html#more), Tun Mahathir kata generasi muda tidak memahami erti kemerdekaan, diperintah oleh Orang Kita dan bukan Orang Asing. Beliau menyalahkan pendidikan sejarah di sekolah yang gagal memberikan kesedaran kepada generasi muda.

Oleh kerana aku lahir pasca 1957, aku ni generasi muda walaupun umur dah hampir separuh abad. Memangnya aku tidak pernah berada di bawah pemerintahan Inggeris, dan tidak berada di zaman perang. Tetapi aku masih ingat kacaubilau tahun 69. Aku ingat zaman Tun Razak yang menyemarakkan perpaduan. Masa tu juga banyak bentuk kemakmuran melalui bantuan pertanian, dan biasiswa pun dah mula diberikan kepada rakyat. Zaman tu juga banyak sekolah-sekolah asrama penuh yang melahirkan ramai cerdik pandai terutamanya di kalangan orang melayu. Kemudahan-kemudahan prasarana pun ditingkatkan. Jadi, sejarah yang aku lalui tidak perlu pergi jauh sebaliknya zaman pembangunan dan pemulihan ekonomi.

Bermula era Mahathir, pada mulanya terasa gah kerana Dasar Pandang Ke Timur, Bersih Cekap dan Amanah dan kemudiannya timbullah penswastaan. Pembangunan pun memang hebat tetapi masa tu dah banyak berlaku percakaran politik. Di pihak UMNO, Mahathir dengan Ku Li kemudian Mahathir dan Musa Hitam. Kemudian berlaku pula pembunuhan Memali dan seterusnya Pemilihan UMNO 1987 yang menyebabkan perpecahan dalam UMNO, maka timbul pula Semangat 46.

Apabila Tun Salleh Abbas di pecat, sekali lagi berlaku tragedi dalam pentadbiran negara kerana Cabang Kehahiman telah di kembirikan. Masa itu, aku yang masih di awal dua puluhan dah mula rasa seperti dijajah, bukan oleh orang asing tetapi oleh UMNO. Sungguh pun ada keistimewaan, kerana boleh bekerja dan ekonomi yang baik tetapi merasa diri ini dijajah. Minda dibodohkan dengan media, dan orang-orang UMNO berlagak macam Malaysia ni dia orang punya. Rakyat biasa hanya menerima apa yang ada, digula-gulakan dengan kehidupan biasa, dan kononnya negara ini aman.

Bagi orang yang pernah berada di England, Amerika, Australia tentulah tidak boleh dibodohkan dengan propaganda UMNO, kerana telah melihat erti kebebasan bersuara di negara-negara itu. Tetapi bila balik di Malaysia media dikudakan. Segala media kerajaan di Malaysia boleh bercakap tentang keamanan, kestabilan ekonomi, dan pembangunan tetapi Minda diikat. Untuk bercakap songsang daripada pemimpin BN bererti menentang. Tambahan pula bila kita lihat mahkamah-mahkamah dan Polis digunakan untuk menjaga kepentingan UMNO dan Barisan Nasional. Generasi muda kecewa, fasal kebebasan yang diinginkan seperti yang dilalui di negara maju tidak boleh dicapai. Dengan adanya ISA, AUKU, Akta Rahsia Rasmi, dan pelbagai lagi Akta yang menggerunkan terasa bahawa Malaysia ni macam negara ketiga di Afrika. Baru-baru ini Suruhanjaya Pilihanraya pula bercakap seperti pihak UMNO dan BN. Sebagai rakyat, perasaan benci meluap dan lama-kelamaan akan diterjemahkan sebagai undi untuk memilih pembangkang.

Selain daripada undang-undang itu, banyak bentuk penyalahgunaan kuasa dan pembaziran wang negara berlaku. Aku tak boleh tahu apa yang betul atau salah. Tetapi bila di sebut skandal BMF, bail out untuk MISC, PERWAJA, MAS, dan banyak lagi mula timbul tandatanya -- apa sebenar yang berlaku. Jawapan samar-samar dan mengelirukan. Bila timbul pula kes pembunuhan Mustakizah, apa sebenarnya berlaku? Bila banyak sangat timbul tentang Altantuya, kami ingin cari kebenaran. Semua ini menjurus kepada kekeliruan dan keraguan. Kredibiliti pemimpin masa itu dipersoalkan.

Seterusnya kuasa raja-raja pun dikurangkan. Masa tu, sebagai rakyat memanglah seronok sebab kita rasakan kuasa dikembalikan kepada rakyat tetapi lama kelamaan baru menyedari bahawa kuasa itu sebenarnya adalah untuk PM dan pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO.

Apa yang berlaku? Sungguh pun bukan semua dalam Internet betul, tetapi penulisan daripada Raja Petra (sebagai contoh) boleh diterima. Banyak bukti dan kenyataan beliau ada asas. Kami generasi pasca 1957 yang bukannya ahli totok UMNO akan terus mencari kebenaran dan biasanya boleh diperolehi daripada Internet. Kami tahu apa yang karut, dan apa yang betul. Dalam Internet tak ada penapisan jadi sebagai manusia yang diberikan fikiran kami buat penilaian dan tahu mana baik dan buruknya.

Kemuncak rasa tidak puas hati apabila Anwar Ibrahim diperlakukan dengan cara zalim. Sungguh pun aku tak pernah kenal Anwar dengan rapat dan dia pun tak peduli sapa aku, tetapi sebagai manusia berhati perut aku rasa perlakuan Mahathir kepada bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri melampaui batasan kemanusiaan. Masa itu bukan soal kredibiliti tetapi kebencian yang amat sangat kepada Tun Mahathir. Dia mungkin hebat satu masa dulu, tetapi segalanya musnah kerana melampau dalam tindakannya.

Apabila Che Det bercakap tentang sejarah dan bebas daripada penjajahan, aku tidak terima hujah tu. Generasi aku inginkan kebebasan sebagai rakyat, untuk bersuara dan memilih pemimpin kami. Selagi pemimpin itu memahami aspirasi rakyat, bertindak adil dan segala institusi kerajaan tidak dipergunakan, kami boleh terima mereka. Pada kami, Malaysia telah bebas daripada penjajahan dan kami mahu terus bebas. daripada pemimpin yang korup.
