BANGI : Perdana Menteri
Datuk Seri Najib Razak hari ini menuntut rakyat Selangor supaya memberikan
peluang kepada kerajaan Barisan Nasional (BN) untuk mentadbir kembali negeri
tersebut yang kini berada di bawah kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat (PR).
Najib dalam siri keenam
Jelajah Janji Ditepati peringkat negeri Selangor di Bandar Baru Bangi hari ini
turut menjelaskan, BN telah banyak berjasa sebelum ini dan telah membuktikan
keupayaan mereka untuk mengekalkan kestabilan ekonomi dan keamanan di negeri
terkaya di Malaysia itu.
"Berilah kami peluang,
BN telah membuktikan kami boleh menjamin kestabilan keharmonian dan kami
berjanji kemakmuran dan kemajuan akan dapat dilaksanakan.
"Janji ditepati ini
bukan slogan, tetapi adalah bukti BN dapat laksanakan janji yang telah kami berikan"
katanya (gambar) di hadapan hampir 50,000 pengunjung program jelajah tersebut.
Tambah perdana menteri itu
lagi, BN perlu menang di Selangor untuk menjadikan masa depan negeri itu lebih
baik.
"Kita juga perlukan
kemenangan. Kalau kita menang, melalui mandat yang rakyat berikan, masa depan Selangor akan jadi lebih baik.
Justeru, Najib turut
membidas janji-janji yang telah ditabur Pakatan Rakyat di Selangor kerana
mereka tidak pernah menunaikan janji-janji tersebut.
"Sebelum 2008, PR telah
menabur banyak janji. Apa dah jadi kepada janji tersebut. Mana janji mereka?
Kita perlu meletakkan kebertanggungjawaban kepada kerajaan negeri yang telah
memerintah selama empat tahun itu.
"Kita di ambang pilihan
raya, namun masih tiada gambaran janji dulu akan ditunaikan, hari ini mereka
tabur janji lagi dalam Buku Jingga, yang mana jika dilaksanakan, maka akan
hancur ekonomi negara," tambah Najib lagi.
Selain itu, ahli Parlimen
Pekan ini turut mengakui BN telah melakukan kesalahan sewaktu pilihan raya umum
2008 lalu, namun beliau berjanji akan menebus kesalahan tersebut dengan
memberikan yang terbaik kepada rakyat Selangor pada masa hadapan jika kembali
diberi mandat dalam pilihan raya umum ke-13.
"Mungkin kita buat
silap sikit dalam PRU lalu, tapi kita akan buat yang lebih baik pada masa
depan," tambahnya lagi.
Najib yang nyata teruja
dengan kehadiran pengunjung dan sambutan yang diberikan kepadanya turut
menambah "jumlah yang ramai ini mungkin gambaran petanda yang baik di
Selangor ini."
Sebelum itu, Najib sempat
menghabiskan masa lebih satu jam bersarapan pagi bersama peniaga dan wakil
penduduk di Pasar Seksyen 1, Bandar Baru Bangi, malah, beliau juga turut
mendengar dan menerima aduan daripada penduduk setempat.
It's up to the Selangor folks whether the will give mandate to PAS again or will support BN this time. We shall see about it during the next GE.

moga rakyat selangor akan beri peluang kepada BN.
ReplyDeleteSaya yakin Selangor tahu menilai dan mengundi dengan bijak
DeleteKalau rakyat Selangor tidak senang dengan yang memerintah sekarang pasti peluang BN akan cerah untuk mengambil alih semula Selamgor.
ReplyDeletetidak mustahil Selangor akan jatuh ke tangan BN
ReplyDeleteBN perlu membuktikan kepada penduduk Selangor yang mana BN mampu memberikan perubahan kepada mereka. Jika tidak pasti penduduk Selangor tetap akan menolak BN pada PRU13 akan datang.
ReplyDeletebukti telah ditunjukkan dimana Selangor telah sedia maju sebelum PKR mengambil alih tampuk pemerintahan negeri itu..
Deletesaranan ini mungkin lebih baik jika ditujukan kepada penduduk kelantan.. seperti yang kita sedia maklum, Kelantan masih mundur selepas lebih 20 tahun diperintah oleh PAS/Pakatan..
ReplyDeletePrime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is not oblivious to the fact that his frequent visits to Selangor is making many in Barisan Nasional in other states envious. But he has to do what he must, that is, reach out and win the hearts and minds of the state's 1.9 million voters before they go to the polls.
ReplyDeleteHis mission is clear. As head of the federal BN and Selangor BN, his focus is to end the opposition's rule in the state.He has made numerous visits to urban and rural areas, touching base with people from all walks of life, while warning party members to unite and work hard, lest the Parti Keadilan Rakyat-led state government remains in power after the next general election.
ReplyDeleteBN needs to win nine more seats, on top of its current 20, to recapture the the 56-seat legislative assembly.Selangor BN, to its credit, must have done something right to exorcise the ghost of the 2008 polls for opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to tell Selangor Pakatan Rakyat supporters last month to launch a war against Umno-BN with the elections around the corner.
ReplyDeleteThat was a day after Najib said BN could take back Selangor because public feedback had been encouraging. Anwar had dismissed BN as a threat in Selangor, citing the opposition's supposedly successful campaign.Selangor BN coordinator Datuk Seri Mohd Zin Mohamed and his team understand their position as underdog in the polls.
ReplyDelete"We are not yet there, although there has been a positive response since we went on an aggressive campaign to serve the people. We have to stay committed and focused until polling day." Meetings, going through situation reports and planning take a lot of Zin's time. The Selangor BN war room on the ninth floor of the state Umno building in Shah Alam has become his second home. When he arrived at the building on Wednesday, he was wearing the blue BN shirt and sandals, ready to work till late.
ReplyDeleteSelangor BN has been on a programme to repair perceptions since 2010 when it organised a BN convention that identified factors that led to the Umno-led BN state government losing its grip on power in 2008. Umno and its partners in BN have not backtracked on their quest to win over those who had turned away from BN in 2008.
Conflicts between BN parties and the trumping of public concerns by personal interests have been reduced. Information technology is being used and the concerns of young voters, who constitute close to 35 per cent of the Selangor electorate, are being addressed.
ReplyDeleteSelangor BN does not lack good ideas to win back the trust of the people. It is using innovative approaches to win over the state’s 5.5 million population, particularly the young working class who spurned BN Pakar, which is Selangor BN’s new service centre, is the latest approach adopted to attend to complaints, including on elected representatives or waste management, and enquiries on BN programmes.
ReplyDeleteA voters’ communication, information and management centre, which has been in operation for less than a week and has not been formally launched, takes calls from 9am to 6pm from Monday to Friday. Callers can leave a message after office hours.
ReplyDeleteIt has become an instant hit, even receiving enquiries from Perak and Penang on 1-300-22-2626. The 20 people manning the centre, including Mandarin and Tamil speakers, are bracing for more calls when Najib officially opens it on May 10.Analyses from BN indicated returning support largely because of the failure of the state government to fulfil election pledges.
ReplyDeleteThere are people who feel they had been short-changed and they make up the pool of voters that BN is wooing. The 20 per cent reduction in assessment, a business premises tax reduction of 10 per cent and free health services for senior citizens are among the unfulfilled pledges.
ReplyDeleteThe people of Selangor, BN leaders said, were receptive to the Najib brand but they knew that his immense personal appeal alone would not be enough to seal the vote for BN. The state government may have flaws, but the mistakes of the past government had dented the coalition’s image.Only Selangor BN’s ability to offer a better alternative, in terms of managing the state, will convince voters to return power to BN.
