RATKO MLADIC

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

1. The International War Tribunal in the Hague, Holland, has found Ratko Mladic, the butcher of Srebrenica, guilty of genocide. He is sentenced to life imprisonment.

2. Many may not have heard of the massacre of eight thousand Bosnian Muslim men and boys in Srebrenica, Bosnia Herzegovina. These people were forced to dig their own graves before being shot or bludgeoned to death and thrown into the graves.

3. Ratko Mladic as commander of the Serb army ordered the killing and oversaw the horrible massacre. His intention was to wipe out the Muslims of Europe so that Europe would truly become Christendom. It was genocide that he intended to achieve.

4. There had been massacres in Europe in the past. But after the Second World War ended with victory of the Western democratic powers, there were no more pogroms against the Jews.

5. But the Serbs still harbour the idea that Europe is exclusively for Christians. It is not a place for Muslims. And so the genocidal massacre in Srebrenica.

6. The surviving relatives of the victim can only partially rejoice that justice has finally been done. But a life sentence cannot compensate for the fears and sufferings of the Bosnians as they were led to the killing field to be murdered in cold blood.

TOWN HALL

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

1. Kit Siang and I had a most interesting session with about 200 young Malaysians who wanted to hear answers to their questions. We on the other hand, wanted to know what is bugging them.

2. They asked very intelligent questions but were a little disappointing because they were mainly about past alleged misdeeds of the BN Governments. There was hardly any reference to the present and the future. The main focus was on Ops Lalang.

3. On corruption the assumption seems to be that any new Government would do all the things that Najib has done and is doing as long as the systems remain the same. There seems to be a belief that if the system is right then everything will be fine.

4. Merely changing the Government would not result in the Prime Minister lose his great power and his corruption.

5. The implication seems to be that voting in the election would not resolve the problems facing the country. This being so voting would be an exercise in futility.

6. In other words let the present Government continue, let Najib be the Prime Minister. It reflects the aphorism “better the devil you know than the angel you don’t ”.

7. Against this the opposition coalition’s efforts will come to naught especially with many young Malaysians. The coalition is prejudged as guilty before the fact.

8. It may seem strange that young Malaysians see no difference between the past and the present. But then our perception of things is based on what we see around us in our lifetime and not before we are born.

9. The old were born when Malaysia was a European colony or in the early years of independence. The young see Malaysia not only quite long after independence, but after the country has already developed much. The perceptions of the old and young are therefore different.

10. The perception of young Malaysians is that corruption in the Malaysian Independent Governments of the past is no different from the corruption of Najib’s Government of today. Change that brings back the Government of the past therefore represent no change at all.

11. The old on the other hand see the difference between the old and the new. They see that in the past no one categorised Malaysia as among the ten most corrupt countries in the world as it is now. No one called Malaysia a kleptocracy. No one was worried about national debt reaching one trillion Ringgit. No one talked of the abuses of power and the stealing of billions of Ringgit by the Prime Minister of the country. There was no 1MDB scandal and no 2.6 billion Ringgit in the PM’s account.

12. Instead they saw Malaysia was among the tigers of Asia, the best developed of the developing countries emerging after freedom from colonial rule, the model for the developing world and many other accolades.

13. The old see these; see the differences between then and now. The old yearn for what by comparison were the good years of the past.

14. For the young the years of the past were nothing to be proud about. Of course the country must develop. Of course life would be good. These were normal. Every country must be so.

15. But there was corruption. There was the ISA. There were detentions without trial. There were censorship and restrictions on press freedom.

16. All these would remain even if a new Government is in place. Even if promises are made that these will be amended or abolished, what guarantee is there that these will be done. The systems would still be there. And there is no guarantee a new Prime Minister with a new Government will not steal money, corrupt the people and abuse his power.

17. This difference in the perceptions of old and young need to be recognised and appreciated if the aspiring challengers against Najib wish to mobilise youths to help in the attempt to overthrow Najib and his kleptocratic Government.

18. The future belongs to these young Malaysians. Their refusal to help change the Government will be very detrimental to them.

TIDAK JAWAB

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

1. Pakatan Harapan (PH) tahu awal-awal lagi jika permintaan dibuat untuk berjumpa dengan Menteri Dalam Negeri, maka permintaan itu tidak akan dijawab, sama seperti surat dari PH untuk mengetahui apa sudah jadi kepada permohonan kelulusan bagi perlembagaan PH dan logo/simbolnya.

2. Ini adalah strategi Kerajaan Najib apabila berhadapan dengan tuntutan hak parti lawan yang ditakuti olehnya, jangan tolak dan jangan lulus. Diam sahaja.

3. Tidak menjawab boleh ditafsir dengan bermacam tafsiran yang tidak mendedahkan Najib kepada dakwaan menyalahguna kuasa dengan tidak melulus.

4. Tidak menjawab mungkin disebabkan tidak menerima, atau terima tetapi tidak menolak, atau tidak dapat memutus untuk menolak atau melulus kerana sebab-sebab tertentu, atau sedang dipertimbang.

5. Jika PH seperti biasa menghantar surat bertanya tentang kedudukan permohonan, sekali lagi jangan jawab.

6. Dengan cara ini berbulan-bulan berlalu tanpa PH mengetahui lulus atau tidak perlembagaannya dan simbol. Persiapan untuk PRU tidak boleh dibuat oleh PH. Persiapan mengambil masa yang panjang, sekurang-kurangnya tiga bulan. Selain dari membuat sepanduk dan bendera dengan logo/simbol yang diluluskan, penentuan kerusi dan calon juga mengambil masa. Simbol yang diguna di kertas undi amat penting. Pengundi perlu kenal simbol ini semasa mengundi. Jika tidak dikenali sekian lama sukar bagi pengundi mengundi PH. Mungkin simbol lain yang akan dipangkah.

7. Oleh itu melambatkan kelulusan perlembagaan PH dan simbolnya adalah cara menyalahguna kuasa Kerajaan untuk BN memenangi Pilihan Raya.

8. Selepas lima bulan berlalu tanpa jawapan dari Kerajaan, PH membuat keputusan untuk jumpa Menteri Dalam Negeri. Jika permohonan dibuat untuk maksud ini sudah tentu jawapan tidak akan diberi. Berbulan lagi akan berlalu dan semakin dekatlah Pilihan Raya, semakin pendeklah masa untuk PH membuat persiapan.

9. Oleh itu PH memutus untuk tidak meminta atau memberitahu tarikh rombongan PH akan berjumpa Menteri. Kesempatan untuk Menteri menghilang diri tidak dapat dilakukan.

10. Tetapi Kementerian dapat maklumat tentang perancangan PH. Maka hilanglah Menteri.

11. Inilah yang berlaku pada Isnin, 20 November.

12. Sekarang diketahui bahawa ada masalah dengan DAP dan PPBM. Tetapi maklumat diberi secara lisan. Tidak ada surat rasmi. Tanpa jawapan rasmi pembetulan tidak dapat dibuat. Maka terpaksa tunggu lagi.

13. Masa berlalu. Pilihan raya semakin dekat. Tanpa kelulusan rasmi persiapan tidak dapat dibuat. Tunggulah. Kerajaan tidak tolak. Tidak bermakna Kerajaan tidak lulus. Hanya tidak jawab.

TAKUT KALAH

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

1. Najib takut kalah.

2. Untuk elak dari kalah Najib sanggup buat apa saja. Bahawa perbuatannya boleh ditakrif sebagai penipuan, haram, bertentangan dengan undang-undang, tidak bermoral, memalukan, melawan arus dan adat tidak mengapa. Jika dianya dipandang hina, pedulikan. Rasuah, sogokan dilakukan secara terbuka tanpa segan silu. Jabatan Kerajaan diperalatkan secara salah. Pembangkang ditekan, disoal, ditahan, di penjara oleh polis, didakwa di mahkamah.

3. Jabatan Hasil Dalam Negeri tuntut cukai tanpa asas, senarai hitam peniaga dan perniagaan, tahan pasport, beku wang dalam bank.

4. MACC tuduh kononnya penyokong pembangkang terlibat dengan pembersihan wang haram, diugut untuk ditangkap dan dihadap ke mahkamah. Wang didalam bank dibekukan. Tak dapat berniaga, tak dapat teruskan projek. Rugi. Perbuatan MACC jelas berunsur politik kerana tindakan yang sama tidak diambil terhadap jenayah oleh anggota parti BN dan UMNO.

5. Pemimpin parti lawan dituduh seleweng duit Kerajaan, disoal berjam-jam, dimasuk lokap, dipakai baju lokap, didedah kepada orang ramai, diambil gambar untuk disiar dalam akhbar dan T.V.

6. Tetapi parti lawan tidak akan terganggu meneruskan kempen mereka. Najib dikenali sebagai perompak, penyamun, kleptokrat. Perbuatan kami diasaskan kepada perkara-perkara yang diketahui umum memang berlaku.

7. Takut kepada parti-parti lawan yang telah bergabung Najib cuba halang gabungan dari dilakukan.

8. Dengan itu kelulusan untuk daftaran gabungan tidak diberi setelah berbulan permohonan dibuat.

9. Caranya mudah. Tidak lulus secara rasmi. Tidak tolak secara rasmi. Tetapi tidak beri jawapan samada lulus atau tidak. Hanya tidak jawab. Dalam pertimbangan. Belum lulus tidak berbeza dari tidak lulus.

10. ROS tidak jawab surat. Tunggu Menteri. Menteri hilang. Ada tetapi tidak ada. Jadi tidak dapat jawab.

11. Sebulan, dua bulan, suku tahun, setengah tahun. Tak jawab. Bukan tolak. Hanya tak jawab.

12. Mungkin dilulus 5 minit sebelum bubar Parlimen.

13. Maka bermasalahlah Gabungan Parti Lawan. Logo dan simbol tidak dikenali oleh orang ramai, oleh pengundi. Maka terkelirulah mereka bila mengundi.

14. Kempen parti lawan bermasalah. Tak dapat adakan sepanduk, tak dapat adakan bendera, tak dapat pamer slogan, perkenal calon dan bermacam lagi.

15 .Harapan Najib pengundi tak dapat undi gabungan parti lawan.

16. Harapan Najib BN tak kalah.

17. Tetapi BN tetap kalah.

18. Rakyat bukan bodoh. Mereka tahu akan segala-galanya. Mereka tahu Najib seleweng duit 1MDB berbillion. Mereka tahu 2.6 billion masuk akaun Najib dalam AmBank.

19. Mereka tahu duit Felda, duit KWSP, duit KWAP, duit Tabung Haji telah hilang.

20. Mereka tahu tanah Kerajaan disamun beli, dijual, mereka tahu peranan Rosmah, Jho Low, Riza Aziz menghilangkan duit berbillion.

21. Mereka sedar nama Malaysia sudah jadi kotor kerana Najib. Apakah mereka ingin kotorkan lagi negara tercinta ini.

22. Mereka tahu semua. Awak boleh sogok tetapi sogokan tidak lagi berkesan.

23. Mereka mahu Kerajaan baru. Dan ini mereka akan dapat dengan mengalahkan BN, UMNO dan Najib.

24. Buatlah apa pun. Majoriti rakyat sudah pun putuskan. Najib akan disingkir.

25. Derita mereka hanya dapat ditamatkan dengan memilih Pakatan Harapan.

26. Najib! Kamu patut takut. Dosa kamu akan membawa kekalahan di dunia.

27. Itulah nasib yang menunggu kamu.

28. Ya. Kamu patut takut. Bagi yang membuat dosa ada balasan lagi di akhirat.

LAYANAN

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

JABATAN Perdana Menteri pada 9hb Oktober telah mengeluarkan kenyataan berkenaan kemudahan yang diberi kepada Dr Mahathir sebagai mantan Perdana Menteri.

Fakta sebenar berkenaan layanan terhadap Dr Mahathir adalah seperti berikut.

1. Dahulu disewa ruang pejabat di Yayasan Kepimpinan Perdana untuk beliau. Sewa ditamat dan disuruh guna pejabat Kerajaan yang tidak sesuai.

2. Akta Parlimen menyebut akan kelayakan mengguna pesawat terbang Kerajaan. Sekarang tidak dibenar. Sebaliknya sesiapa yang cuba memberi pinjam pesawat persendirian dilapor kepada Jabatan Perdana Menteri.

3. Secara tidak langsung tidak dibenar menggunakan rumah penginapan Kerajaan Persekutuan di London.

4. Dua pengiring motorsikal, 4 pengiring UTK yang dibekal delepas semburan pemedih mata, telah ditarik balik walaupun mantan Perdana Menteri lain masih dibekal.

5. Beberapa kakitangan pejabat dan tukang masak ditarik balik dan diganti dengan yang lain.

6. Dr Mahathir letak jawatan di Proton, Petronas (dilucut sebagai penasihat) dan juga sebagai Canselor Universiti Teknologi Petronas. Tetapi Universiti swasta dinasihat untuk tamatkan Dr Mahathir sebagai Canselor.

7. Perbuatan seperti ini tidak pernah dilakukan kepada bekas Perdana Menteri Tunku Abdul Rahman dan Tun Hussein Onn walaupun mereka tidak sokong Kerajaan-kerajaan pada masa itu.

8. Kegunaan dewan-dewan untuk Kerajaan Pusat, Negeri diperintah Barisan Nasional dan bandaraya tidak dibenar. Dewan swasta diberi amaran akan menerima padah jika disewa kepada sesiapa yang menjemput Dr Mahathir.

9. Prinsip negara demokratik ialah parti pemerintah tidak boleh guna kemudahan Kerajaan untuk kepentingan parti.

MERPERKAYAKAN MELAYU

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

MERPERKAYAKAN MELAYU

1. Dibawah dasar ekonomi Najib, ramailah orang Melayu yang sudah menjadi kaya. Separuh menjadi kaya dengan mudah. Apa yang diperlukan hanyalah memberi sokongan tidak berbelah bahagi kepada Raja Wang Tunai.

2. Jangan tanya dari mana wang itu datang. Jangan soal. Terima sahaja. Halalkannya dengan ibadah tertentu.

3. Jika dihadiah jawatan, guna jawatan untuk sauk duit yang ditangani. Jangan takut. Jika SPRM terjumpa, tindakan tidak akan diambil atau mengambil masa yang amat panjang.

4. Jika memegang jawatan yang tinggi dalam pemerintahan, peluang banyak akan terdapat untuk seleweng. Jika tidak ada tempat untuk simpan ratusan juta, bawah katil, bawah T.V. pun boleh. Untuk lebih selamat kongsi bersama pihak yang berjawatan tinggi dan berkuasa.

5. Jika berpeluang bawa wang tunai itu ke Hong Kong atau Australia. Jika dikesan dan kena tangkap tak mengapa. Kata tak faham bahasa Inggeris.

6. Jangan takut SPRM tak akan siasat. Kalau ada berbillion dalam akaun, okay. Ada A.G. Boleh sembunyi fakta, laporan, bukti.

7. Sekarang datang satu cara baru. Orang asing nak beli tanah di Malaysia. Pinjamkan nama sebagai Presiden, CEO, pengurus untuk tubuh syarikat Bumi Sdn. Bhd. Beli tanah. Harga tak penting. Beli, beli, beli.

8. Yang mudah sekali tanah orang Melayu. Tak mahu jual, naik harga. Naik harga, naik harga sehingga jual. Tanah milik bukan Melayu pun boleh beli jika kena harga.

9. Pemilik syarikat akan hadiah bermillion Ringgit kepada tuan punya nama pinjaman untuk syarikat yang didaftar sebagai syarikat tempatan milik bumi. Orang asing yang pinjam nama orang bumi amat kaya. Mereka memiliki berbillion Ringgit. Banyaklah tanah akan dimiliki oleh mereka melalui proksi Melayu.

10. Melayu ini akan kaya. Mereka akan naikkan pendapatan sekepala Melayu. Fikirkan jika seorang dari 1000 orang Melayu menjadi jutawan, pendapat purata tiap seorang dari 999 yang tidak berpendapatan akan berjumlah RM1000.

11. Inilah cara Melayu boleh jadi kaya dan pendapatan per kapita mereka meningkat.

12. Kemudian apabila dihitung, Melayu tak ada tanah lagi. Warga Malaysia lain pun sudah tidak ada tanah lagi. Bersama dengan TRX, Sg Besi, Melaka, Kuantan, Johor, Langkawi, Kedah, tanah yang berharga sudah tidak lagi milik rakyat. Ia sudah jadi sebahagian dari negara lain.

13. Tetapi okay. Melayu dan lain-lain warganegara sudah kaya. Sekurang-kurangnya sebahagian dari hutang 1 billion sudah dibayar. Bandar-bandar moden, canggih dan mewah terdiri di seluruh negara. Dan orang Malaysia, terutama orang Melayu dapat melihat dengan bangganya betapa Malaysia sudah jadi negara maju, penuh dengan pencakar langit. Mereka sendiri tinggal dalam pondok papan berbumbung zink di kawasan setinggan.

14. Kekayaan hasil dari pinjaman nama rupa-rupanya tidak kekal. Dan kembalilah orang Melayu ke pinggir hutan, jauh dari pencakar langit yang memenuhi tanah Melayu dahulu.

15. Ingat, kita jual Singapura. Masih kita punyakah? Tanah di Malaysia yang kita jual kepada orang asing, masih kita punyakah?

16. Bukan sahaja sudah bukan kita punya, undang-undang negara kita, duit negara kita juga tidak diguna. Masih kita punya kah?

17. Apabila kita sudah jual semua tanah kita, apakah Malaysia masih kita punya?

18. Sokonglah Najib, penyangak, perompak dan lanun Melayu.

NAJIB’S BROADSIDE

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

IN an article published by Malaysiakini here on 30th Oct, 2017 titled “Najib launches into lengthy broadside against Dr M at dinner event” the PM made remarks which most believe is directed at me. I am reproducing Malaysiakini’s article below and my responses in bold. Malaysiakini reports Najib’s lengthiest broadsides against me though not by name.

He did this in a keynote address, titled “Governance in a Developing Democracy”, at a dinner organised by the United Nations Association Malaysia (UNAM) in Kuala Lumpur. The Prime Minister in his speech lamented what he termed to be the “epidemic of fake news”.

Dr M: What fake news! If they are fake prove that the Dept of Justice, America’s report about purchases of residence in UK and US, Wolf of Wall Street film, purchases of paintings, pink diamonds did not happen, that USD 3.5 billion of Riza’s money came from his family, that 1MDB money did not pass through Singapore banks as reported by officials, that USD 681 million was not in his account at AmBank, that Jho Low is not the recipient of 1MDB money.” Don’t just deny. Don’t ignore. Give prove. All money transactions are documented. Show us the documents on all the transaction involving 1MDB money. Sue the Dept. of Justice of America, the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Let Jho Low answer questions by American authorities.

Najib said: “From time to time, some Western media outlets have been featuring interviews with one of our former leaders and presenting his allegations about the country as facts.

“They are not. This former leader has been on a nearly three-year mission to illegitimately topple the democratically elected government of Malaysia in between election cycles.”

Dr M: What is illegitimate about toppling a democratically elected Government? It happens in Brazil, in South Korea and in many democratic countries in the past, between elections. The evidences against the overthrown leaders were not even clear. Already they were overthrown. Here the evidence is overwhelming – but hidden by the Attorney General. If the A.G. charges him in court, he would be overthrown today.

This former leader, Najib added, has tried “every method at his disposal and failed each time”.

Dr M: The attempts failed because there is no rule of law in Malaysia. Reports against Najib result in arrest and jailing of the man reporting. Reports by institutions are made official secrets. Judgement is passed by the A.G., not a court of law. Have a proper hearing and I will accept the verdict. If guilty step down.

As a result, Najib said, the leader was making himself available to any media organisation that was willing to listen so that he could “spread fake news and tell lies about his country for selfish political gains”.

Dr M: The print and electronic media in Malaysia is controlled by Government. Even Parliament cannot discuss 1MDB and the 2.6 billion Ringgit in Najib’s account. UMNO General Assembly was instructed to be silent on these. Am I supposed to censor myself when asked by foreigners. I have been talking to foreigners throughout my life. Prove that what I say is fake. Let’s have “Nothing to hide 3”.

Najib said: “He seems to think that if he tells a lie often enough, people will begin to believe it is true. And unfortunately, that may be the case as no one would expect a former leader to tell outright untruths.”

For instance, Najib cited the former leader’s oft-repeated claim that Malaysia was among the top 10 most corrupt countries in the world.

“When challenged to produce evidence for this, he is unable to do so. That is because it is nonsense.”

Dr M: It is the foreign media which repeatedly and extensively published Malaysia as among the 10 most corrupt country here , here , here , here and here to name a few. During by-elections money was openly paid to voters, kitchen appliances were given. The 2018 budget is offering money to people prior to an election. I don’t have to repeat my accusations. The people are already repeating them and telling me.

Citing Transparency International’s latest ranking, Najib pointed out how Malaysia was listed among the top third least corrupt countries, at 55th place out of 176.

Dr M: What about Transparency International (TI) Chief, Jose Ugaz’s speech on 2nd Sept. 2015 at the opening of the 16th IACC in Malaysia. Among other things Ugaz said;

“….What does that mean for Malaysia? The government has taken measures and initiatives to tackle corruption. We will surely hear that from the minister. We want to see more progress but that cannot happen while there are unanswered questions about the $700m that made its way into the Prime Minister’s personal bank account. In recent weeks we have seen the Attorney-General who was critical of the government suddenly replaced, the 1MDB taskforce suspended, investigators at the Anti-Corruption Commission arrested or transferred, and newspapers suspended for reporting on the matter. These are not the actions of a government that is fighting corruption. We may well hear promises of reform. That is not what is needed at this time. And promises alone will not restore confidence and trust. There are two questions that need to be answered: Who paid the money and why? Where did it go? One man could answer those questions. If that does not happen then only a fully independent investigation, free from political interference, can uncover the truth.

Until that happens, no claim from the government on anti-corruption will be credible.

You can read the whole speech here or watch the video clip at the end of this posting

On the former leader’s claim that the country was going bankrupt, Najib refuted this by quoting the World Bank, which stated that the “Malaysian economy is progressing from a position of strength”.

Dr M: The Malaysian Government total debt is almost one trillion Ringgit. Show how you are going to pay this. Let independent auditors audit KWSP, Tabung Haji, KWAP, FGV and PNB.

Najib said: “Another, which is laughable, is that Malaysia is in danger of sliding into dictatorship.”

Dr M: There already is a dictatorship in Malaysia now. There is no rule of law. A.G. prevents Najib’s case from going to court. Opposition figures are hounded and detained. Possible supporters of opposition are accused by MACC of corruption and money laundering without proof.

Ignoring the 2.6 billion in Najib’s account, the MACC is instead accusing, detaining and questioning a former minister on unfounded suspicion of corruption.

Najib insisted that elections are fiercely fought in the country, while the opposition has significant representation in Parliament and also controls three states.

Dr M: Elections were free before. Now there is a lot of cheating especially postal votes. In Pekan, Najib’s margin of 250 in 1999 increased to 25,000 in 2004 while the electorate increased from 35,000 to 80,000. There is no way for these increases to happen .Obviously the additional voters were created out of nothing. Financing of the opposition is actively blocked by Najib. All banks, even private one are closed to the opposition.

Najib said: “We have allowed demonstrations against the government in Kuala Lumpur. These are not the markers of a dictatorship. The claim is ridiculous. The irony is that this former leader has admitted that he himself was a dictator when in office. And this is his words, not mine,” said Najib to laughter from the audience.”

Dr M: If I can call myself a dictator, Najib should call himself a tyrant. I respected the law and I resigned of my own free will. Let’s see Najib do the same. Najib abuses the law with the help of the IGP and A.G. Or he should consider calling himself a crook. After all he had attained that acclaim in the Newsweek report during his Trump visit.

Despite all these, Najib noted that many things have changed since the former leader’s time.

“We have made it clear that there will be no more crony capitalism. We have invested in the infrastructure and public transport Malaysia needs and in opposition states as well as BN states, unlike his time.”

Dr M: I had no Jho Low or Riza Aziz

Apart from his veiled attack against Mahathir, Najib in his speech outlined initiatives he had undertaken, which he claimed, were essential to good governance in the country.

“Firstly, the concept of 1Malaysia, People First, Performance Now, secondly, the Government Transformation Programme and thirdly, the Economic Transformation Programme.”

Dr M: This concept is great. People are the first to bail out Government through G.S.T. The only performance we see is the corruption of senior Government servants, hospitals without medicine, low-cost housing not built, additional taxes based on nothing, and raids to oppress people and deter them from supporting the opposition. Registration of the opposition coalition has not been given. 1 Malaysia is about BN first. The only transformation is the new security laws being tightened and more power to the PM to detain people.

He also cited his brainchild – National Transformation 2050 (TN50) – which he said was launched to further strengthen the country.

Dr M: TN50 is launched. By 2050 the debt will bankrupt the country. The 1 trillion national debt will increase to 3 trillion. The Ringgit will depreciate further.

The government’s bottom-up approach in TN50, he said, was a clear example of the government practising good governance in response to the changing needs of a young population.

Dr M: Bottom up means the people must pay GST, endure high cost of living, no scholarship for their children while Najib enjoy the billions stolen from 1MDB, KWAP, KWSP etc.

“The economic performance I have outlined and the acclaim we have received from international organisations should be conclusive proof of the good governance this government has practised in Malaysia,” Najib said.

Dr M: What acclaim! Is being called a kleptocratic country an acclaim?

Below is Transparency International (TI) Chief, Jose Ugaz’s speech on 2nd Sept. 2015 at the opening of the 16th IACC in Malaysia

DETAINEES

blogtunm.blogspot.com Tun M 

1. The first thing I did when I became Prime Minister was to order the release of 21 political prisoners under Internal Security Act.

2. I did that because I did not like detention without trial ever since Aziz Ishak was detained.

3. I had hoped that during my tenure as Prime Minister I would not have to detain anyone.

4. I had asked the police whether we could do without the ISA. They did not agree, not even to reduce detention to one year.

5. I am now told that detainees were tortured. I regret that the detainees in Ops Lalang were tortured. This is against the law.

6. People have been detained under the ISA during the time of all three PMs before me. They had never been released on orders by the PMs.

7. I accept the blame even though the detention was not my decision.

* In February 2011, Tun Hanif Omar, explains Ops Lalang.

* Dr Chandra Muzaffar’s version of Ops Lalang
