Terlalu agungkan orang luar

Anwar dilaporkan telah menulis kepada Carr untuk meminta Australia membantu dalam memastikan pilihan raya umum akan datang di Malaysia, yang berkemungkinan diadakan awal tahun depan, bebas daripada penipuan dan rasuah.

Anwar juga dilaporkan memberitahu Carr bahawa beliau menemui bukti tentang penipuan dalam pendaftaran pemilih dan anomali lain dalam menghadapi pilihan raya itu.

“Keputusan kerajaan Australia itu juga memberi tamparan hebat kepada Anwar betapa cerita bohong beliau di peringkat antarabangsa telah terbongkar,” tambah Syed Ali.

Presiden Gabungan Pelajar Melayu (GPMS) menegaskan membenarkan pemerhati asing untuk memantau perjalanan pilihanraya negara boleh menjejaskan kedaulatan negara.

Katanya, tindakan Anwar itu kerana sikapnya yang terlalu mengagungkan orang luar.

“Ada agenda tersendiri hendak membawa pemerhati dari Australia itu…nak kucar kacirkan sistem pilihanraya negara kita.

“Adalah mereka fikir demokrasi di negara luar itu sangat baik?, ” kata Jais.

Beliau menambah, GPMS meminta mana-mana pemimpin politik supaya menerima hakikat keputusan pilihanraya kelak.

No 'bots' in Merdeka tweets

KUALA LUMPUR (Sept 9, 2012): The government today rubbished claims that 'clones' had been used to bloat the number of National Day-themed tweets sent on Merdeka.

Insisting that the figure is accurate, Deputy Information, Communications and Culture Minister Datuk Maglin Dennis D'Cruz said there had been no tampering to reach the 3.6 million tweet mark.

"Many people actually wanted to support Merdeka and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak," he told reporters after launching the 'Kembara Merdeka' book here today.

Social media research house Politweet.org had reportedly said the ministry's claim that #Merdeka55 had been tweeted 3.6 million times between 8.15pm and 9.15pm on Aug 31 was doubtful as there was no third party verification.

According to Politweet, there was an 'odd pattern' during the hour, in which blocks of identical tweets were sent at the same time.

"Investigation revealed that a small group of users were responsible for a large volume of tweets. They had similar characteristics, such as account creation date, profile photos, location and follower/following relationships," it said.

D'Cruz said the ministry's target had been to reach one million tweets, adding there was no reason to bloat the actual figure.

"People can say anything, but we did everything properly. All of us involved in the attempt asked our friends, family and members of the public to take part," he said.

On Merdeka eve incidents which included a man mooning at Najib's photograph, D'Cruz said parents are responsible for bringing their children up properly.

"Don't let politics enter the home, otherwise children's minds will be polluted and they'll come out and start disrespecting the flag and the prime minister," he said.

The Tamil-language Kembara Merdeka book, written by Minnal FM deejay Johnson Sinappan, chronicles his experiences during a month-long journey through Peninsular Malaysia with only RM10 in his pocket.

Meanwhile, Penang chief minister who is also DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng questioned why Twitter has made no mention of the record as claimed by the ministry.

Pointing out that there were only five tweets from overseas according to news reports, Lim asked minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim to prove that the figure is authentic and the tweets sent were not automated.

"Can we have an inquiry on this matter?" he added.

PKR Youth: ‘New flag’ nothing to do with us

PETALING JAYA: PKR Youth has denied any role in trying to change theJalur Gemilang to an “alternative flag” during the Janji Demokrasi gathering but admitted that it was designed by one of its youth leaders.

“The flag was designed by our deputy youth information chief Mohd Najwan Halimi in 2007 but at that time, he was not a member nor held any post in the youth wing.

“What happened during that year should not be associated with us,” its chief Mohd Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin said yesterday.

He maintained that there was nothing wrong in flying the flag, also known as the Sang Saka Malaya, during the Merdeka eve gathering.

“The most important part is that we are clear on our stand which is that we have no intention to change our national flag,” he said.

Shamsul was responding to criticism against the youths, who had flown the alternative flag, leading to allegations that the wing wanted to replace the Jalur Gemilang with it.

Najwan had explained in his blog that the Sang Saka Malaya was designed by him based on the patterns of the Indonesian and Singa­porean national flags.

Shamsul denied that the wing was involved in distributing pamphlets to participants during the gathering and welcomed a police probe into the Janji Demokrasi participants who stepped on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s picture.

Chorus of disapproval over acts of a few

PETALING JAYA (Sept 3, 2012): Various quarters have joined the chorus of disappointment over the actions of a few individuals who behaved degradingly towards government leaders and carried flags allegedly meant as alternative to the Jalur Gemilang during the recent Merdeka eve celebration at Dataran Merdeka.

In a statement, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng expressed disapproval at the few who stepped on pictures of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak

In doing so, he also called on Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein to act decisively against those who had committed similar acts to degrade Pakatan Rakyat leaders.

"Clearly there is selective prosecution and double standards by not demanding for stern action against Perkasa members who burnt or stepped on my portrait outside my office in Komtar and performed funeral rites on my portrait outside my house," he said today.

"To date, no court action is taken against these perpetrators who showed disrespect on portraits of PR leaders," he added.

Lim took to task Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon for linking the behaviour of stepping on Najib's portrait to the Opposition.

"It is irresponsible to blame the Opposition for an act that was clearly not our doing," Lim said.

He added that there was also no action taken when a group behaved in a similar manner against Bersih co-chairman Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan.

Ambiga had a derogatory "butt dance" performed by a few army veterans outside her house. She also had beef burgers grilled in front of her home when she is a practising Hindu and a vegetarian.

Meanwhile, PKR Youth denied allegations it wanted to change the national flag. Its chief Shamsul Iskandar Akin said this although their Deputy Publicity Chief Najwan Halimi had reportedly designed the 'Sang Saka Malaya', inspired by Putera-AMCJA (All-Malaya Council of Joint Action) people's coalition of 1947, that became the subject of controversy after the 'Janji Demokrasi' event on Merdeka eve.

"Najwan designed it in 2007, and some youth had taken it as a manifestation of their patriotism. I have no problems with anyone who wishes to fly the 'Sang Saka Malaya' as an expression to acknowledge the country's historical development," he told a press conference today.

He described what happened as a manifestation of the youths' observation of history to celebrate the spirit of past Independence figures such as Dr Burhanuddin Helmy and Ishak Haji Muhammad (Pak Sako) during whose time the flag was introduced.

Shamsul challenged Umno to change its own flag, the 'Sang Saka Bangsa' should its members find the element 'Sang Saka' a threat to national security.

He stressed that the issue has no basis to be politicised at all just because there were some youths who happen to have different ideas and opinions in viewing the country's history.

"What is clear is that this issue is being blown out of proportion as if it has potential of becoming a threat to the nation's security," said Shamsul.

He also denied knowing the individuals involved in the act of stomping on Najib's portraits, pointing that he and his team will even assist in finding the group in order for the authorities to take the necessary action against them.

However, he also urged the police to take the same action against the individuals who had done the same towards the opposition leaders.

Meanwhile, Parti Ikatan Bangsa Malaysia (Ikatan) president Tan Sri Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir said it was unfortunate that after 55 years of independence, people's behaviour had regressed.

"Politics is becoming dirtier by the day and it does not in any way reflect the maturity which should have been gained all this time," said Abdul Kadir who had served as the Merdeka Day organising committee chairman from 1999 to 2006, during his term as a federal lawmaker.

He cited several incidents, including the flag controversy, and recent attacks to a bus used for PKR's Jelajah Merdeka Rakyat roadshow in Kelantan, as examples of acts which should be condemned.

"The authorities should put an immediate stop to such acts by taking stern and unbiased action towards the responsible parties to prevent it from becoming a trend and making Malaysia a laughing stock to the world," he stressed.

Waves of flak over flag

PETALING JAYA: Several prominent figures have lambasted supporters of the recent Janji Demokrasi rally who “unveiled a new Malaysian flag” and stepped on photographs of the nation's leaders, saying that the action was against the principle of the Rukun Negara (National Principles).

Tan Sri Prof Khoo Kay Kim, one of the co-authors of the Rukun Negara, lamented the lack of understanding among a section of the nation's youth resulting in misguided acts against the accepted national symbols and values.

“I think the problem among some of the youth today is that they treat the flag not as a national symbol but as a joke. They don't realise that theJalur Gemilang was decided and accepted by the people through democratic process,” he said.

He said there was a gross misunderstanding that the national flag was synonymous with the ruling party, in this case the Barisan Nasional led-government.

“Whatever the disagreement that may exist between political parties, there are certain facts that have to be accepted by the rakyat,” he said.

He noted that any change to the accepted national institutions and symbols could only be brought about via the ballot box.

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon, who is in charge of National Unity and Performance Management, said the action was against the tenets of the Rukun Negara.

“These actions go against the fifth principle in the Rukun Negara, “Kesopanan dan Kesusilaan” (Courtesy and Morality),” he said, adding that disrespectful acts were undemocratic and unacceptable.

“The principles in the Rukun Negara must be upheld by all to ensure peace in the country,” Koh, who is also Gerakan president, said during the party's Hari Raya open house celebrations.

Malay rights group Perkasa chief Datuk Ibrahim Ali described the acts as “subversive” and a threat to the nation's peace and unity.

“The acts are subversive and we are concerned that their actions had been influenced by both internal and external political elements out to ruin the peace and unity enjoyed by our nation,” he said.

He urged the authorities to investigate the incidents with Perkasa lodging a police report against the culprits.

The youth chiefs of MCA and MIC, Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong and T. Mohan, both condemned the acts as an immature gimmick that could cause disunity.

“The flag represents the nation and there are those who have sacrificed their lives defending it. How can they disrespect the flag?,” Wee said.

Mohan said the Opposition's repeated calls for change via its slogan “Ubah” could have contributed to the incident.

Pembangkang tidak sepakat

Apalah nak  jadi dengan pembangkang ni, sebelum ni kritik  tema merdeka yang digunakan kerajaan, "55 Tahun Merdeka, Janji Ditepati", tapi mereka sendiri menggunakan tema yang berlainan bagi setiap negeri yang ditadbir. 

Perbezaan ketara apabila ,Selangor dan Pulau Pinang menggunakan tema  "Sebangsa, Senegara, Sejiwa,", Kelantan pula menggunakan tema "Menerajui Perubahan" dan Kedah menggunakan tema " Terus Berbakti".

Kedah dan Kelantan menolak tema "Sebangsa, Senegara, Sejiwa" yang diputuskan pada peringkat jawatankuasa pemilihan dipengerusikan Datuk A Samad Said kerana kedua-duanya telah memutuskan tema sendiri pada mesyuarat EXCO kerajan negeri masing-masing.sesuai lah pepatah 'Seperit ketam mengajar anaknay berjalan',diri sendiri tak betul tpa iada hati nak kritik orang lagi.
