PANDA dan JANDA memang PM PANDE Posted: 26 Jun 2012 10:00 AM PDT DUA ekor panda belanja RM20 juta, untuk janda bagi RM500 duit BR1M. Lima hektar tanah Putrajaya dan sepuluh hektar di Wetland untuk pembiakan keluarga PANDA. Lagi RM500,000,untuk menanam pokok buluh. Kononnya untuk memberi pendidIkan kepada rakyat Malaysia ilmu daripada kerajaan Komunis China. Memang PM kita pande (loghat Kelantan untuk perkataan pandai). Sumber Rujukan di bawah. Kerajaan tak tahu keutamaan panda dan janda KUALA LUMPUR: Kerajaan ternyata tidak tahu keutamaan antara panda dan janda, kata Naib Presiden PAS, Datuk Mahfuz Omar. "Kerajaan tidak tahu keutamaan untuk orang muda, sama seperti kerajaan tidak tahu keutamaan antara panda dan janda," kata beliau dalam perbahasan di Dewan Rakyat. Panda yang disebut oleh Mahfuz itu merujuk kepada dua ekor beruang panda yang disewa oleh Malaysia daripada negara China. Ketika diminta mengulas lanjut kenyataan itu selepas perbahasan tersebut, Ahli Parlimen Pokok Sena itu berkata, kerajaan ternyata lebih suka mengutamakan perkara-perkara yang membazirkan wang negara. "(Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri) Najib (Tun Razak) mendakwa, tindakan menyewa panda itu untuk meningkatkan kesedaran kepada kerja-kerja perlindungan. "Itu untuk panda. Bagaimana pula kesedaran kepada kerja-kerja perlindungan entah berapa ratus ribu janda di negara ini?" katanya. Apa yang berlaku itu, kata Mahfuz, jelas membuktikan kerajaan langsung tidak tahu keutamaan. "Kerajaan Najib tak tahu keutamaan dan nampak benar tak tahu keutamaan antara panda dan janda. "Akhbar The Star melaporkan kerajaan berbelanja sehingga RM20 juta untuk memelihara dan menjaga dua ekor panda itu. "Berapa kerajaan berbelanja untuk setiap janda yang tidak berkemampuan di negara ini? Untuk dua ekor panda belanja RM20 juta, untuk janda bagi RM500 duit BR1M sahajakah?" katanya. Mahfuz juga menyifatkan perjanjian penyewaan panda itu ternyata merugikan Malaysia. "Kalau mati kerajaan Malaysia kena bayar ganti rugi. Kalau panda itu beranak dalam penjagaan Malaysia, anak itu jadi milik syarikat China berkenaan. "Orang kampung yang pawah kambing atau lembu lebih pandai buat perjanjian dari kerajaan Malaysia," kata Mahfuz. Mahfuz juga menyifatkan Najib sengaja mereka-reka dakwaan untuk mewajarkan tindakan kerajaan terhadap tindakannya berbelanja begitu besar untuk dua ekor panda itu. "Najib kata tindakan kerajaannya menyewa panda itu akan menjadi pengalaman pendidikan untuk rakyat Malaysia. "Adakah orang Alor Setar akan naik bas beratus-ratus kilometer untuk melancong di Kuala Lumpur kerana hendak tengok dua ekor panda itu kononnya untuk menimba pengalaman pendidikan?" beliau terus mempersoalkan. Sebelum itu, seruan Najib dalam laman Facebook berbahasa Cinanya supaya orang ramai menamkan dua ekor panda itu dibalas oleh rakyat dengan pelbagai persendaan. Sebahagiannya mengambil peluang memperolokkan Najib dan isterinya Rosmah Manosr dengan menamakan panda itu sebagai "cincin dan beg beg", "Altantuya dan Scorpene" dan "Rara dan Suahsuah". Seorang pengunjung laman tersebut yang bernama Aun Huang Long menulis: "Lembu pun tak boleh jaga. Najib, u nak panda? Kesian panda tu". ============================================================ A TOTAL of 15ha has been identified to be turned into bamboo plantations for the supply of panda food. Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) director-general Datuk Dr Abd Latif Mohmod said 5ha in Putrajaya and 10ha in Paya Indah Wetlands will be cultivated with four types of bamboo suitable for the consumption of pandas. "The four types of bamboos are Dendrocalamus asper (buluh betung), Bambusa ventricosa (buluh botol), Thyrsostachys siamensis (buluh siam) and Bambusa glaucesnes (buluh pagar)," he told The Malay Mail. "These bamboo species are commonly found here. We wanted to create the plantations as it would be most feasible in the long run." He said the two locations were selected on the basis of rotation, so that one area would be able to provide supplies if the other fell short. Abd Latiff said all four types of bamboo are easily found in the country and officers from China will test the bamboo supplies before it is consumed by the pandas. It would take six months to a year to set up the plantations, he said. The endeavour will cost RM500,000, including maintenance, over two years. He also said there were no foreseeable problems in relation to the cultivation of bamboo. "For example, buluh siam and buluh pagar are most commonly found because they are commercially cultivated. People also plant them for ornamental use," he said. "Pandas only consume the small leaves and branches of bamboo as well as fruits such as apples and carrots." Abd Latiff said the pandas' surrounding areas will also be enhanced with bamboo plants to simulate its natural habitat. It was recently announced that the Chinese government will loan two pandas to the Malaysian government, in commemoration of diplomatic relations between both nations which reaches its 40th anniversary in 2014. The loan will cost the Malaysian government RM20 million. The pandas will be kept at the Putrajaya Wetlands Park, in the land activities area. Animal conservation groups have criticised the move, saying the allocation should be used for the conservation of other endangered species in the country. ================== PUTRAJAYA: China will loan two pandas to Malaysia as part of a collaboration between the China Wildlife Conservation Association and the Malaysian government, said the Natural Resources and Environment Ministry in a statement. The pandas, to be on loan for 10 years, mark the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relationship between both countries in 2014. Bilateral relations between Malaysia and China started during the tenure of late Tun Razak. The ministry said the close relationship has enabled Malaysia to attract more foreign investment from China to boost the country's economy further. The cooperation would enable Malaysia to conduct conservation research on the giant panda, it said. The ministry added that the presence of the pandas would promote public awareness on panda conservation undertaken by China. This will encourage the public to appreciate and learn the importance of biodiversity and wildlife conservation in Malaysia. A nationwide contest to name the pandas would be held to spur interest among the Malaysians to learn more about this unique animal. The pair will be placed in a special exhibit in Taman Wetland, Putrajaya. Ref: Staronline |
