| Pakatan jamin bela hak Melayu dan kaum lain – Anwar Posted: 26 Aug 2012 09:13 PM PDT (Oleh Aedi Asri) BAGAN SERAI 27 Ogos: Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim bertegas, hak keistimewaan orang Melayu dan lain-lain kaum akan terjamin jika Pakatan Rakyat (Pakatan) berjaya membentuk Kerajaan Pusat pada pilihan raya umum (PRU) akan datang.  Katanya, antara tawaran Pakatan jika menang pilihan raya termasuk menurunkan harga minyak dan kereta serta membatalkan Perbadanan Tabung Pendidikan Tinggi Nasional (PTPTN).Ketua Umum KEADILAN itu berkata, rakyat tidak bodoh untuk terus percaya dakwaan Umno BN bahawa negara akan bankrap jika ditadbir Pakatan. "Rakyat tak bodoh…(Menurut Umno BN) negara akan bankrap (sedangkan) kita bagi fakta," katanya merujuk tawaran berkenaan ketika berucap pada Ceramah Perdana Demi Rakyat di sini, malam tadi di hadapan kira-kira 4,000 hadirin. Anwar berkata, semua golongan akan mendapat keuntungan daripada tawaran tersebut, terutama rakyat miskin dan kebanyakannya Melayu. Beliau turut menyangkal tohmahan sesetengah pihak mengatakan nasib orang Melayu tidak akan terbela di bawah pentadbiran Pakatan. Menurutnya, KEADILAN, PAS dan DAP bersetuju memberi jaminan untuk terus membela Melayu dan pada masa sama hak kaum lain sebagai warganegara yang sah. "(Ini kerana) Malaysia tidak akan selamat kalau orang Melayu (sebagai kaum majoriti) tersisih dan tidak kuat," kata Anwar lagi. Jelasnya, orang Melayu tidak mendapat pembelaan sebenar di bawah pemerintahan Umno BN yang hanya mengkayakan keluarga dan kroni. Beliau memberi contoh skandal RM250 juta National Feedlot Corportaion (NFC) melibatkan keluarga bekas Menteri Pembangunan Wanita, Keluarga dan Masyarakat, Datuk Seri Shahrizat Jalil dan terbaru, kontrak membekal bahan api selama enam bulan untuk pesawat MAS yang diberi kepada Petron, milik Mirzan Mahathir. "Ahli-ahli Umno yang bawah dapat apa? Itupun ahli masih lagi (melaungkan) 'Hidup Melayu'," kata Anwar sinis. 29 Jun lalu, Petron dan MAS menandatangani perjanjian bagi membeli dan membekal bahan api untuk pesawat Airbus A380 selama enam bulan berkuatkuasa 1 Julai lalu. Selain Anwar, turut berucap adalah Pengerusi Majlis Pimpinan KEADILAN Perak, Dr Muhammad Nur Manuty; Ketua Biro Latihan , Mustaffa Kamil Ayub dan Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri Tronoh, V Sivakumar. Anwar turut menyampaikan sijil penghargaan kepada Ketua Dewan Himpunan Penyokong PAS Perak, Beh Heng Kin dan Alphonse Arulandu di atas sumbangan mereka kepada Pakatan Rakyat.  |
| Shahrizat’s case closed, Azmin’s case re-opened Posted: 24 Aug 2012 09:09 PM PDT The MACC review panel clears the minister of any wrongdoing in the NFC scandal, and at the same time, recommends that the PKR deputy president's case be re-investigated. UPDATED  KUALA LUMPUR: The MACC operations review panel has cleared former minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil of any links with regard to the National Feedlot Centre scandal, in which her husband and children have been implicated. On another matter, the panel ordered the case against PKR deputy president Azmin Ali to be re-opened based on the fresh information received. As for Shahrizat's case, panel chairperson Hadenan Abdul Jalil said: "The panel found that she was not involved in awarding the project to the company (headed by her husband Mohamed Salleh Ismail) and the (government's) RM250 million loan (for NFC)." And on Azmin's case, the MACC reviews panel said that in light of the new evidence produced by blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin, including confidential documents, it had recommended that the case be re-investigated. Earlier this week, Raja Petra had disclosed several confidential documents which implicated Azmin in corrupt practices in 1995 when he had served as Anwar Ibrahim's political aide. After Raja Petra's exposure, former Anti-Corruption Agency director-general Shafee Yahaya said that following the findings of a probe in 1997, he recommended to then deputy prime minister Anwar to take disciplinary action against Azmin. MACC's investigation head Mustafa Ali had told reporters today that the commission might record statements from Anwar and Azmin over the matter. Raja Petra had said a retired MACC officer had handed him files that showed that the then ACA had gathered concrete evidence to arrest and prosecute Azmin for corruption. He alleged that the file was marked 'no further action' by Shafee on instructions from Anwar, a charge which Shafee denied. Azmin was alleged to have receved a monthly stipend of RM15,000 from Berjaya Group tycoon Vincent Tan. Other files are paper trails showing Azmin and wife, Shamsidar Taharin, owning shares, houses and cars totalling RM1.5 million and about RM10 million in cash. Sand scandal case closed At the press conference today, Hadenan admitted that it might be difficult to unearth new evidence given that the case is 17 years old. However, he vowed that investigations will be fair and would only be based on "solid proof". He said MACC does not rule out Shafee being be called up to assist in the fresh probe. Mustafa said that MACC was studying if allegations against Azmin, which the ACA could not find any wrongdoings then, could be investigated under new provisions of the current MACC Act.  Meanwhile, Hadenan said that they have decided to close investigations into allegations of sand theft syndicates in Selangor involving Sri Muda state assemblyperson Mat Shuhaimi Shafiei and Batu Caves state assemblyperson Amirudin Shari. In February, the panel had recommended that the case be re-opened following allegations by Raja Petra that the duo allegedly colluded with a well-heeled contractor with regard to sand mining operations in the state. Raja Petra claimed that the contractor forked out cash assistance to Mat Suhaimi for his programmes while Amirudin had provided a supporting letter to Double Dignity Sdn Bhd, the sand mining company belonging to the contractor. "The legal division, after re-looking at the files, held the same view they did previously – that it needed no further action," said Hadenan. The panel is an independent one formed by several people appointed by the government to re-look and review the decision of the A-G. The PPO members are specialists and professionals appointed by the prime minister.  |
