DEBATKINI Peralihan kuasa
akan berlaku secara aman sekiranya benar Pakatan Rakyat dapat mengambil alih
kuasa dalam pilihan raya umum akan datang, kata ahli Parlimen Kota Belud, Abdul
Rahman Dahlan.
Bercakap pada debat anjuran
Malaysiakini malam tadi, Abdul Rahman berkata, BN mampu menerima kekalahan
dengan hati terbuka seperti situasi di Kelantan pada 2004 apabila tewas dengan
majoriti amat kecil.
"(Pada masa itu) PAS
memenangi satu kerusi dengan majoriti dua undi. Walaupun setelah 20 tahun
(memerintah), bila kami kalah, kita tidak melakukan apa-apa.
"Kita beri pada mereka
secara jujur dan adil," kata Abdul Rahman sebagai menjawab persoalan yang
diutarakan.
Menghangatkan lagi suasana
debat malam tadi yang dihadiri kira-kira 300 hadirin, Abdul Rahman sebaliknya
berkata, sekiranya pada pilihan raya umum akan datang Pakatan tewas, keadaan
seperti perhimpunan BERSIH 3.0 akan berlaku.
"Sebab mengapa saya
berkata demikian kerana, saya percaya, keganasan pada 28 April merupakan amaran
kepada Malaysia bahawa pembangkang tidak akan bertolak ansur sekiranya kalah
pada pilihan raya umum," katanya yang menerima sorakan 'boo' oleh hadirin.
Abdul Rahman bagaimanapun
dengan tenang dan berseloroh berkata, beliau datang pada debat tersebut
berseorangan dan tidak membawa pasukan sorak.
"Saya telah bercakap
dengan orang saya dalam BN, jika kita kalah, kalahlah," kata Abdul Rahman.
'Keganasan
sebenar'
Sementara itu, membidas
kenyataan Abdul Rahman, Ahli Parlimen Subang daripada PKR, R Sivarasa berkata,
sekiranya tiada pilihan raya yang adil dan bersih, di mana-mana negara
sekalipun rakyat akan turun ke jalanan.
Beliau berkata, wajar
sekiranya rakyat membantah pilihan raya yang telah dirancang dan tidak adil.
azlanSivarasa menegaskan
lagi, jika ingin bercakap mengenai perhimpunan pada 28 April, keganasan sebenar
apabila gas pemedih mata dan meriam air digunakan oleh pasukan beruniform.
"Jika menang dengan
cara yang bersih dan adil tidak mengapa. Tetapi jika menipu dan menang, oh,
kita akan pergi ke jalanan. Seluruh rakyat di dunia akan pergi ke jalanan.
"Tiada orang yang
membenarkan pilihan raya yang tidak adil dan menipu," katanya disambut
dengan tepukan hadirin.
Debat semalam siri pertama
"Debatkini" anjuran Malaysiakini. Turut dibariskan semalam Naib
Presiden MCA Gan Ping Sieu dan ahli parlimen PAS Mujahid Yusof Rawa.
BN pasti dpt terima kekalahan, tapi kalau pembangkang kalah, pasti mereka akan menuduh BN bukan2.. kata pilihanraya tidak adillah,, macam2 lagi.
ReplyDeleteBiar SPR dengan JPN bekerjasama membersihkan senarai daftar pemilih.
ReplyDeleteOpposition should not incited the people to break the laws.
ReplyDeleteNampaknya mimpi PR begitu tinggi sekali. Ingin merampas kerajaan dengan mudah rasanya tidak tepat sekali.
ReplyDeleteTinggi. tapi belum tentu lagi tercapai.
DeleteKita tunggu saja apa yang PR dapat lakukan nanti pada PRu13.
ReplyDeletePakatan tidak akan menang.
ReplyDelete"sekiranya tiada pilihan raya yang adil dan bersih, di mana-mana negara sekalipun rakyat akan turun ke jalanan."
ReplyDeletemasalahnya, di negara ini bukan rakyat yang bangkit sendiri untuk turun ke jalanraya, sebaliknya atas hasutan pihak pembangkang yang tidak sabar2 mahu menggulingkan kerajaan..
kalau betul kerajaan dan SPR menipu, bukankah bodoh namanya menyerahkan negeri2 kaya seperti selangor dan pulau pinang kepada Pakatan??
ReplyDeletedalam empat tahun Najib menduduki kerusi PM, sudah banyak pembaharuan beliau laksanakan terhadap sistem pilihanraya.. kalau Pembangkang masih turun ke jalanraya, saya andaikan pembangkang terdesak untuk merampas kerajaan dan tidak sabar untuk memperolehi kuasa dan kekayaan luar biasa..
ReplyDeleteNajib Tun Razak said the young generation should evaluate the achievements of the government from all aspects and not based on political perception and rhetoric.
ReplyDeleteIn this regard, the Prime Minister said the young generation must be trained so that they had higher thinking skills to enable them to differentiate between the perception deliberately created by certain groups, particularly through the internet and social media which were not based on the truth.
ReplyDelete"This is the generation that should be able to evaluate all this...not a matter of perception. Don't think that just because we are the government, we are not right.
ReplyDelete"If the ruling Barisan Nasional is not right, Malaysia would not have developed as it is now : Malaysia will achieve the developed nation status in a few more years," Najib said.
ReplyDeleteHe said this when delivering his speech at the opening of the Malaysian Young Thinkers Convention organised by Malaysian Young Thinkers Youth Organisation (PPM) in collaboration with the Youth and Sports Ministry, Malaysian Youth Development Research Institute and Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) here.
ReplyDeleteNajib said not all countries had detailed planning as Malaysia had in order to achieve the developed nation status because the government was capable of leading the nation to carry out massive transformation.
ReplyDeleteThe Prime Minister said the fact was that Malaysia was not a failed state because if one looked back at the progress the country had made under the present government for the past 55 years, there had been many achievements to the extent that the country could now be interpreted as a successful nation.
ReplyDeleteHe said that most young people emphasised on what was happening today and in future, but the fact was that they had no historical perspective, thus they would be at a loss as to where they had originated from or their past history.
ReplyDelete"Thus, as a young generation, we cannot be blind to history and we cannot become a generation that does not appreciate the struggles of our forefathers," he said.
ReplyDeleteThe Prime Minister said a young generation that had historical perspective would be appreciative and would not live as part of history, instead they would have the determination to take the country to greater heights.
ReplyDelete"This is the young generation that we can depend upon. It means that as a young generation, we must have the capability to contribute, and the ability to to be critical, innovative and creative in our thinking," he said.
ReplyDeleteAs leaders, Najib said, providing educational opportunities for the young generation to possess academic qualification alone was insufficient because they must be prepared to face the challenges of the 21st century, including attacks on the leaders through the social media instead of the 'poison pen' letters as was the case in the past.
ReplyDelete"They must be given the skill to think in depth so that they will not accept in toto what is being published in the social media.
ReplyDelete"We don't want leaders who are good actors. We don't want leaders who are good in oratory skills but are not truthful," he said.
ReplyDelete"We don't want leaders attacking other leaders, but they themselves are not prepared to swear giving the excuse that it is a political conspiracy, everything is political conspiracy and they are not prepared to defend themselves based on facts," Najib said.
ReplyDeleteHe said the Barisan Nasional (BN) emphasised on the need to make real transformation instead of merely political rhetoric.
ReplyDeleteReal change could also not be achieved through improper street demonstrations with some of the demonstrators jumping 'like monkeys' and kicking policemen, he said.
ReplyDeleteStreet demonstrations would not strengthen democracy, instead Najib described them as 'democrazy' for creating chaos which did not benefit Malaysia.
ReplyDelete"Chaos in the country would benefit no one, but if one does not agree with anything, then voice it in a proper manner," he said.
ReplyDeleteNajib said Malaysians, including the young generation, must do what was best for the country and at the same time, the government provided aid such as the 1Malaysia People's Aid and several other programmes for the young which would be announced later.
ReplyDelete"There is a suggestion that soon I will launch the 1Malaysia book shop that will sell books cheaper than the other shops for the young generation so that they can develop a reading habit. Then, we want to set up 1Malaysia textile shop, much cheaper," he said.
ReplyDeleteNext week, the government would introduce a programme for the young based on the spirit of volunteerism called IMOU at the Kuala Lumpur City Centre for the young so that they could contribute in efforts to build and transform the country.
ReplyDeleteNajib said the young generation who were facing problems such as the 'Mat Rempit' would not be neglected when the government also implemented programmes to rehabilitate this group with the cooperation of the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia under the patronage of his wife, Rosmah Mansor.
ReplyDeleteHe called on the young generation to acquire skills and to take note that some of them were earning an income of RM3,000 by selling cup cakes.
ReplyDelete"Cup cakes are not that difficult to make, I too can make them but I don't have time as I have become the Prime Minister," he said.
ReplyDeleteAt the function, Najib said he would assist the PPM to go down to the states as a partner of the government to implement the national transformation programme, especially for the young generation.
ReplyDeleteThe one-day convention was attended by 5,000 youths aged between 18 and 40 from 22 career backgrounds including doctors, lawyers, policemen and even young taxi drivers to come out with proposals from their respective profession for consideration by the government.
