State DAP to file judicial review against EC

Posted: 08 Mar 2015 07:48 PM PDT

KUCHING: Sarawak DAP will be filing a judicial review against the Election Commission (EC) within the next 14 days for its refusal to grant a public hearing over the re-delineation proposal that affects the Bandar Kuching parliamentary seat.

Its chairman Chong Chieng Jen told a press conference yesterday that the letter dated Feb 18, 2015, to deny a public hearing was only received by the party headquarters here last week.

The letter stated that the re-delineation proposal would not affect the Bandar Kuching parliamentary seat.

However, Chong said he was surprised as to why the EC did not grant them a public hearing even though they had satisfied the EC's condition of getting 100 objections from 100 voters in Bandar Kuching.

"Nevertheless, our lawyers are now compiling the paperwork for a judicial review," Chong said after chairing a state party committee meeting.

He did not say when the judicial review would be filed in court.

Chong, who is also Bandar Kuching MP, said the constituency currently had about 80,000 registered voters, an increase of 28,000 voters since the last re-delineation exercise carried out more than 10 years ago.

Meanwhile, the state DAP will help their federal counterpart in a signature campaign to urge the Ministry of Education to amend the National Education Blueprint (2013 to 2025).

Among the issues raised yesterday was shorter time for Chinese schools to teach Mandarin classes, while more time is allocated to teach Bahasa Malaysia classes.

The campaign is also to get the ministry to give due recognition to Chinese middle schools in the blueprint.

"Currently, around 900,000 signatures have been collected in Peninsular Malaysia. We (the state DAP) will take it to one million signatures," said Chong, who is also Kota Sentosa assemblyman.

长期扎根基层 行动党务实参政

Posted: 08 Mar 2015 07:44 PM PDT

（本报古晋8日讯）行动党砂州联委会主席张健仁指出，该党长期来都在要出战的30个选区展开基层工作，以更实际行动为民服务！
针对询及来届选举是否与公正党与伊斯兰党合作，他并未给予正面回应，仅强调目前行动党将继续着重于基层工作，尤其在30个将出战的选区。
他认为，与其一直在报章上讨论要出战哪一个选区，不如长期的基层工作来得更实际。
张健仁今午在砂州联委会会议后召开的新闻发布会上表示，对于该党而言，该党向来的政策是在要出战的选区上长期经营及服务，同时也有信心攻下。
他说，该党是以脚踏实地及务实的态度去看待出战一个选举与否。

拒绝选区划分投诉 火箭要告选委会

Posted: 08 Mar 2015 07:43 PM PDT

（本报古晋8日讯）就砂行动党针对选区划分提出的投诉及建议，已符合了宪法条例，即超过100名当地选民反对，然而，却遭选举委员会驳回，因此，该党决定透过法律途径，将此事告上法庭！
行动党砂州联委会主席张健仁今午在召开砂州联委会会议后，针对砂行动党就选区划分提出的投诉及建议遭受选举委员会反驳一事，对媒体如是透露。
他说，该党在上个星期接获选举委员会拒绝展开听证会的信件，尽管该党已经符合宪法条例，即超过100名当地选民提出反对。
鉴于此，他批评选举委员会违反了宪法条例，并决定采取法律途径，将选举委员会提告至法庭。
他解释说，砂选委会日前拒绝召开选民听证会的理由非常简单，那就是"你的选区没有受到影响"。对此，他认为，有关理由很牵强，让该党无法接受。
理由牵强难接受
张健仁感到奇怪，为何选委会害怕行动党要求进行相关听证会？
他说，行动党早前向选委会所提出的建议包括，将浮罗岸州选区内的两个投票区，即马吉（Market)和老巴刹（Bazaar）转为砂督州议席，即将浮罗岸选区的5000名选民划分至砂督选区。
此外，行动党也建议将部份朋岭和峇都林当州议席的一些投票区划出来，联合成立一个新的州议席，并将其命名为"达闽"州议席。
与此同时，该党还建议将古晋市和实旦宾国会议席的一些地区重新划分，成立一个新的国会议席，并将之取名为盐柴港(Sungai Maong)国会议席。
