Kempen Wan Azizah Hanya Demi Anwar? #PRKKAJANG #KAJANGMOVE #CHEWMEIFUN

Memang patutlah kalau pengundi di Kajang tolak Calon PR Dr Wan Azizah kerana rupa-rupanya agenda politik beliau bukannya untuk membela nasib rakyat Kajang tetapi lebih kepada perjuangan peribadi beliau sendiri.

Ishhh!! Apalah nasib rakyat Kajang andai beliau diangkat menjadi Wakil Rakyat mereka. Tolonglah jangan memperjudikan nasib rakyat semata-mata untuk kepentingan peribadi anda. Cukup-cukuplah dengan taktik politik "simpati" tu. Pengundi dah matang dan muak kot.

 Berikut ini adalah berita daripada Want China Times, Taiwan.Tanpa melaporkan nama pegawai Malaysia yang menjadi sumber beritanya itu, akhbar online itu menuduh Malaysia sebagai berbohong. Ikuti terjemahannya berikut :

 Seorang pegawai Malaysia yang terlibat dalam operasi mencari  penerbangan Malaysia Airlines  MH370 yang hilang, telah membuat kenyataan bercanggah  dari kerajaan Malaysia dengan mengatakan bahawa tentera secara sedar dan berterusan mengesan pesawat di radar selama lebih daripada satu jam selepas perhubungan dengan kawalan bumi telah terputus pada awal pagi 8 Mac.

 Pegawai tentera udara yang merahsiakan nama sebenarnya  memberitahu portal web Cina Tencent bahawa walaupun pada awalnya bahawa tentera Malaysia berkata mereka tidak boleh pasti, sebenarnya mereka tahu dengan pasti bahawa radar mereka mengesan pesawat penerbangan MH370 dan mengikutinya kerana ia mendaki di atas ketinggian yang diluluskan Boeing 777 itu 45,000 kaki dan membeluk tajam ke barat sebelum turun tidak sama rata kepada 23,000 kaki ketika menghampiri Pulau Pinang. Pesawat itu kemudian mendaki kembali kepada 35,000 kaki dan menuju ke arah barat laut Lautan Hindi, dengan bacaan yang akhir menunjukkan ia di atas pulau kecil Pulau Perak di Selat Melaka pada kira-kira 2:40.

 Walaupun mereka mengetahui ini semua, pihak berkuasa Malaysia tidak mendedahkan maklumat penting ini sehingga 15 Mac, seminggu selepas kehilangan pesawat, kata pegawai itu. Ia juga bermakna bahawa Malaysia tahu dari awal bahawa pesawat - jika ia telah terhempas - berkemungkinan di Selat Melaka kawasan di sebelah barat negara yang bertentangan dengan Laut China Selatan di sebelah timur, di mana berpuluh-puluh kapal dan pesawat dari negara-negara lain yang mencari selama beberapa hari tanpa memberikan sebarang hasil , tambah pegawai itu.

 Pengumuman awam pertama yang dibuat oleh Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Malaysia Airlines, Ahmad Jauhari Yahya pada pagi Sabtu adalah bahawa pesawat kekal dalam hubungan sehingga 02:40, tetapi kemudiannya masa itu telah ditukar kepada 01:20, masa sewaktu komunikasi itu sedang diserahkan daripada  pengawal lalu lintas udara Malaysia kepada  rakan-rakan sejawat mereka di Vietnam.

 Sejak itu  hal transponder pesawat telah "sengaja" dimatikan pada 1:21 dan bahawa ia telah benar-benar hilang dari skrin radar awam Malaysia pada kira-kira 1:30 itu pun didedahkan. Tetapi jika dakwaan pegawai tersebut itu benar, maka pihak berkuasa Malaysia tahu dengan tepat di mana pesawat itu dan apa yang ia lakukan selama 70 minit tersebut.

  Pendedahan pegawai tersebut tentang pengetahuan Malaysia mengenai titik benar  terakhir komunikasi penerbangan itu , juga selaras dengan apa yang Datuk Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, Ketua Pengarah Jabatan Malaysia Penerbangan Awam, katakan : "terdapat beberapa perkara yang saya boleh memberitahu anda dan beberapa perkara yang saya tidak boleh" ketika beliau menjelaskan mengapa carian telah diperluaskan ke Selat Melaka pada 11 Mac. Malah, kata pegawai itu, Malaysia telah secara rahsia mencari dirantau itu selama ini.

 Sementara itu, jumlah negara yang terlibat dalam carian, yang kini memasuki hari kesembilan, telah berkembang 14-25 dan akan mengambil daratan yang luas menyeberangi 11 buah negara dan juga kawasan-kawasan laut dalam dan terpencil. Fokus baru muncul selepas Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Najib Razak, mengumumkan hari Sabtu bahawa menerima satelit "ping" hampir tujuh jam selepas  penerbangan MH370 berlepas berkemungkinan dalam dua koridor penerbangan : satu antara Thailand dan Kazakhstan, dan satu lagi di antara Indonesia dan Lautan selatan India. 

 Seorang lagi pegawai tentera udara Malaysia memberitahu Tencent bahawa penerbangan MH370 mungkin diterbangkan ke barat sampai hingga Somalia atau utara  Thailand dan Myanmar lalu ke bahagian selatan Mongolia. Laluan penerbangan dekat dengan sempadan beberapa negara, menjadi pilihan kerana  pengesanan radar adalah agak lemah, tambah pegawai itu.

 Sesiapa di antara 239 orang di atas kapal yang merampas MH370 mesti sangat biasa dengan geografi terdekat Malaysia dan juga mengetahui keupayaan kedua-dua radar awam dan tentera, kata pegawai itu, sambil menambah bahawa ia adalah pengetahuan umum dalam industri penerbangan bahawa kedua-dua negara Somalia dan selatan Mongolia  tidak memerlukan kebenaran kerajaan untuk melakukan pendaratan. Somalia dalam keadaan anarki kerana perang saudara, manakala Mongolia mempunyai beberapa lapangan terbang rahsia menyediakan jalur pendaratan selamat untuk penyeludup, tambah pegawai itu.SUMBER

Flight MH370: lost jet exposes gaps in Malaysia’s defences

Posted: 17 Mar 2014 02:33 AM PDT

The Telegraph

Allies and neighbours concerned after prime minister discloses flight MH370 crossed its territory without being picked up by military radar

Malaysia has rejected questions over its air defence systems following the seizure and disappearance of flight MH370 and claimed the lessons learned from the crisis could "change aviation history".

The disclosure by Prime Minister Najib Razak that the Malaysia Airlines plane was seized shortly after taking off from Kuala Lumpur, turned around over the South China Sea and flew back over Peninsular Malaysia without alerting the country's defence forces has caused alarm among neighbours and allies.

After the September 11 2001 attacks on the United States, air defences across the world were tightened and new procedures adopted to speed the detection of rogue aircraft and intercept them before they could be used as weapons of terrorism.

But the apparent failure of Malaysia, which has a defence agreement with Britain, to notice that the plane had changed direction, fallen off the radar and then flown towards and through its air space has identified serious loopholes in its air defences.

Most countries with advanced air forces would detect an incoming hostile aircraft 200 miles from shore and scramble fighter jets to challenge it.

There has been strong criticism of the failure in China, India and in private by Western diplomats and defence analysts.

A Western security source said while the current focus is on helping Malaysia locate the missing plane, "there are a lot of questions – how did it get to the point where it came back and went wherever? You would have thought [planes] would have been scrambled and the Malaysians would have acted."

Sugata Pramanik, an Indian air traffic controllers' leader, said a plane can "can easily become invisible to civilian radar by switching off the transponder … But it cannot avoid defence systems."

One senior Indian Navy commander, Rear Admiral Sudhir Pillai, however said his country's military radars were occasionally "switched off as we operate on an ‘as required' basis".

The Royal Malaysian Air Force is widely respected and has a fleet of Sukhoi S30 and F16 fighter jets and does regular training exercises with their British, Australian, New Zealand and Singapore counterparts.

Malaysia's Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein however dismissed the concerns and said the disaster was an "unprecedented case" with lessons for all.

"It's not right to say there is a breach in the standard procedures … what we're going through here is being monitored throughout the world and may change aviation history," he said.

His comments were supported by Azharuddin Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's Director General of Civil Aviation, who said "many will have lessons to learn from this. I've been in aviation for 35 years and I've never seen this kind of incident before".

Neither elaborated on the loopholes exposed beyond Malaysia by the seizure of MH370 and stressed that Kuala Lumpur would not focus on the issue until it had found the aircraft and its passengers on crew.

Anifah Aman, Malaysia's foreign minister, told The Telegraph the world was "missing the point" by focusing on security implications and that he still hoped for a ‘miracle' in finding the passengers and crew alive.

"The focus must be on finding the plane. I don't want to support any of the theories at this juncture. This involves a lot of lives. My worry is where is the plane and what little chance that people are safe so that they can come back … we believe in miracles and like to think they're safe and can return to their families," he said.

The prime minister confirmed on Saturday that the Boeing 777 had been flown from close to Vietnamese air space over the South China Sea, back across the Malaysian peninsula to the Strait of Malacca, close to Penang, and then took two possible navigational corridors.

Search operations, now including 25 countries, are now focused on a northern corridor from the Turkmenistan-Kazakhstan border to northern Thailand and a southern sector from Indonesia to the vast southern Indian Ocean.

The investigation into what happened to the plane is now based on four theories – all of which follow from Mr Najib's acceptance on Saturday that the plane had been deliberately seized or hijacked.

Police Inspector General Khalid Abu Bakar said those who had taken the plane were either hijackers, saboteurs, someone with a personal vendetta or a psychological problem.

His investigation had been launched under a Malaysian law which covers terrorism offences, he said.

Until now the government has been reluctant to refer to the seizure as a hijacking or act of terrorism because they have yet to find any evidence on the motive of whoever seized the plane on Saturday March 8th.

The minister and the police chief's comments however marked a freer use of the terms following the prime minister's confirmation that the plane had been deliberately taken and re-routed.

Malaysia has not suffered terrorism on the scale of neighbours Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines, although several Malaysian nationals are known to have received training from al-Qaeda.

 

Planet Plutocrat

The Economist

The countries where politically connected businessmen are most likely to prosper

AMERICA'S Gilded Age, in the late 19th century, saw tycoons such as John D. Rockefeller industrialise the country—and accumulate vast fortunes, build palatial mansions and bribe politicians. Then came the backlash. Between 1900 and 1945 America began to regulate big business and build a social safety net. In her book "Plutocrats", Chrystia Freeland argues that emerging markets are now experiencing their first gilded age, and rich countries their second, with the world's wealthiest 1%, who benefited disproportionately from 20 years of globalisation, forming a "new virtual nation of Mammon".

Inventing a better widget, tastier snack or snazzier computer program is one thing. But many of today's tycoons are accused of making fortunes by "rent-seeking": grabbing a bigger slice of the pie rather than making the pie bigger. In technical terms, an economic rent is the difference between what people are paid and what they would have to be paid for their labour, capital, land (or any other inputs into production) to remain in their current use. In a world of perfect competition, rent would not exist. Common examples of rent-seeking (which may or may not be illegal) include forming cartels and lobbying for rules that benefit a firm at the expense of competitors and customers.

Class warriors and free-market devotees alike are worrying about rent-seeking. American libertarians fear an elite has rigged their country's economy; plenty of ordinary Joes reckon the government and Federal Reserve care more about Wall Street than Main Street. Many hedge-fund managers sniff that China is a house of cards built by indebted cronies.

To test the claim that rent-seekers are on the rampage, we have created a crony-capitalist index. Our approach builds on work by Ruchir Sharma of Morgan Stanley Investment Management, Aditi Gandhi and Michael Walton of New Delhi's Centre for Policy Research, and others. We use data fromForbes to calculate the total wealth of those of the world's billionaires who are active mainly in rent-heavy industries, and compare that total to world GDP to get a sense of its scale. We show results for 23 countries—the five largest developed ones, the ten largest developing ones for which reliable data are available, and a selection of eight smaller ones where cronyism is thought to be a big problem. The higher the ratio, the more likely the economy suffers from a severe case of crony-capitalism.

We have included industries that are vulnerable to monopoly, or that involve licensing or heavy state involvement (see table 1). These are more prone to graft, according to the bribery rankings produced by Transparency International, an anti-corruption watchdog. Some are obvious. Banks benefit from an implicit state guarantee that lowers their cost of borrowing. When publicly owned coal mines, land and telecoms spectrum are handed to tycoons on favourable terms, the public suffers. But the boundary between legality and graft is complex. A billionaire in a rent-heavy industry need not be corrupt or have broken the law. Industries that are close to the state are still essential, and can be healthy and transparent.

A galaxy of riches

Billionaires in crony sectors have had a great century so far (see chart 2). In the emerging world their wealth doubled relative to the size of the economy, and is equivalent to over 4% of GDP, compared with 2% in 2000. Developing countries contribute 42% of world output, but 65% of crony wealth. Urbanisation and a long economic boom have boosted land and property values. A China-driven commodity boom enriched natural-resource owners from Brazil to Indonesia. Some privatisations took place on dubious terms.

Of the world's big economies, Russia scores worst (see chart 3). The transition from communism saw political insiders grab natural resources in the 1990s, and its oligarchs became richer still as commodity prices soared. Unstable Ukraine looks similar. Mexico scores badly mainly because of Carlos Slim, who controls its biggest firms in both fixed-line and mobile telephony. French and German billionaires, by contrast, rely rather little on the state, making their money largely from retail and luxury brands.

America scores well, too. The total wealth of its billionaires is high relative to GDP, but was mostly created in open sectors. Silicon Valley's wizards are far richer than America's energy billionaires. It is one of the few countries where rent-seeking fortunes grew only in line with the economy in recent years, which explains its improved position since 2007. Despite concerns about vampire-squid financiers, few of its billionaires made their money in banking. Even including private equity as rent-seeking, on the grounds that it benefits from tax breaks and cheap loans, would make little difference. Compared with Larry Ellison of Oracle, Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone is a pauper.

Countries that do well on the crony index generally have better bureaucracies and institutions, as judged by the World Economic Forum. But efficient government is no guarantee of a good score: Hong Kong and Singapore are packed with billionaires in crony industries. This reflects scarce land, which boosts property values, and their role as entrepots for shiftier neighbours. Hong Kong has also long been lax on antitrust: it only passed an economy-wide competition law two years ago.

Another surprise is that despite its reputation for graft, mainland China scores quite well. One reason is that the state owns most natural resources and banks; these are a big source of crony wealth in other emerging economies. Another is that China's open industries have fostered a new generation of fabulously rich entrepreneurs, including Jack Ma of Alibaba, an e-commerce firm, and Liang Wengen of Sany, which makes diggers and cranes.

One of the most improved countries is India, which moved from sixth place in our ranking to ninth. Recent graft scandals and a slowing economy have hurt many of its financially leveraged and politically connected businessmen, while those active in technology, pharmaceuticals and consumer goods have prospered. Turkish billionaires in rent-seeking industries have been hit by their country's financial turmoil. By contrast most countries in South-East Asia, including Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines, saw their scores get worse between 2007 and 2014, as tycoons active in real estate and natural resources got richer.

Who are you calling a crony?

Our crony index has three big shortcomings. One is that not all cronies make their wealth public. This may be a particular problem in China, where recent exposés suggest that many powerful politicians have disguised their fortunes by persuading friends and family to hold wealth on their behalf. Unreliable property records also help to disguise who owns what.

Second, our categorisation of sectors is crude. Rent-seeking may take place in those we have labelled open, and some countries have competitive markets we label crony. Some think America's big internet firms are de-facto monopolies that abuse their positions. South Korea's chaebol, which sell cars and electronics to the world, are mainly in industries we classify as open. But they have a history of bribing politicians at home. China's billionaires, in whatever industry, are often chummy with politicians and get subsidised credit from state banks. According to Rupert Hoogewerf of the Hurun Report, a research firm, a third are members of the Communist Party. Sectors that are cronyish in developing countries may be competitive in rich ones: building skyscrapers in Mumbai is hard without paying bribes, and easy in Berlin. Our index does not differentiate.

The third limitation is that we only count the wealth of billionaires. Plenty of rent-seeking may enrich the very wealthy who fall short of that cut-off. America's subprime boom saw hordes of bankers earn cumulative bonuses in the millions of dollars, not billions. Crooked Chinese officials may have Range Rovers and secret boltholes in Singapore—but not enough wealth to join a list of billionaires. So our index is only a rough guide to the concentration of wealth in opaque industries compared with more competitive ones.

Despite the boom in crony wealth, there are grounds for optimism. Some countries are tightening antitrust rules. Mexico has many lucrative near-monopolies, from telecoms to food, but its government is at last aiming to improve regulation and boost competition. India's legal system is trying to jail a minister accused of handing telecoms licences to his chums.

Encouragingly, there are also hints that cronyism may have peaked. The share of billionaire wealth from rent-seeking industries has declined in developing countries, from a high of 76% in 2008 to 58% (see chart 4). That partly reflects lower commodity prices. But now that emerging markets are slowing, investors are becoming pickier. More are steering clear of firms in opaque industries with bad governance. The price-earnings ratio of firms in crony sectors is now at its biggest discount to firms in open sectors for 15 years. That suggests that the highest returns to outside investors are to be found in open industries.

Perhaps when growth picks up again in emerging markets, rent-seeking will explode once more. Or, as countries get richer, the share of great wealth that is made in crony industries may naturally decline. In 1900 American tycoons became rich by building and financing railroads. By 1930 the action had shifted to food production, photography and retailing. Cronies around the world should take note.

Mishaps Mar Malaysia’s Handling of Flight Tragedy

Posted: 17 Mar 2014 02:22 AM PDT

Asia Sentinel

Miscues and media gaffes are turning Malaysia into an object of anger and criticism in the aftermath of the disappearance early Saturday morning of a Malaysian Airlines jetliner carrying 239 passengers and crew.

No trace of the craft has been found despite a search encompassing thousands of square kilometers.  On Wednesday, the day was dominated by confusion over reports that the aircraft might have attempted to head back toward Malaysia before it disappeared.

Malaysia's air force chief told reporters very early Wednesday that the plane had veered off course. Later in the morning, the same officer denied the report sharply. By Wednesday afternoon, the government seemed to reverse itself again, requesting assistance from India in searching the Andaman Sea, north of the Malacca Strait, where the plane may have gone down far from the current search area off the coast of Vietnam.

Officials finally said the plane “may” have been heading toward the Strait of Malacca when it disappeared and that the search was now also concentrated in that area.

Other countries have grown frustrated.  The Chinese, with 152 passengers on board, have complained about a lack of transparency over details. They have also complained that Malaysian Airlines staff handling relatives of the victims in Beijing have been short of information and in many cases don't speak Mandarin.

From the start, according to critics, the Malaysians have treated the disappearance and ensuing inconsistencies as a local problem instead of one that has focused the attention of the entire world's media on the tragedy. In a semi-democratic country with a largely supine domestic media, the government insists it has the situation in hand but that hardly seems the case.

Often, those giving press briefings about the affair communicate badly in English to an international press whose lingua franca is English.  Because of widely differing reports of where the aircraft actually disappeared, the picture being delivered is one of incompetence. Networks like the BBC and CNN are openly declaring that the post-accident situation is a mess.

Some of it isn't Malaysia's fault.  An initial report that two possible hijackers using fake passports somehow got through the country's passport control because of lax surveillance turned out to be false.  While the two were traveling on false passports, apparently the stolen documents had never been reported to Interpol, which tracks such incidents.  The pair turned out to be Iranians seeking asylum in Europe.

But that wasn't helped by the fact that Malaysian authorities originally said erroneously that as many as four to five people could have been traveling with suspect passports, raising the possibility of a fully-fledged hijack gang aboard.

But five days into the loss of the aircraft and with no idea of where it could have disappeared, there is growing concern over who is in charge, coupled with the fact that Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak has largely removed himself from the picture, allowing his cousin, Hishammuddin Hussein, the defense minister and acting transport minister, to deal with the affair.

International treaties that allow for Malaysia to greatly expand the probe by calling in experts from foreign governments to help were not invoked until Wednesday, it seems, when it was reported that US and other foreign experts had finally been invited to take part in the formal investigation. It seemed again that valuable time had been lost.

Much of the problem is due to the fact that the Malaysian government has habitually handled information as a problem rather than as a means of communication. The mainstream news media are all owned by the ruling political parties and are used to being fed information the government wants them to hear.  Government-owned MAS at one point issued a press release only to recall it twice because of misspellings and misinformation.

In a deeply divided political culture, especially in the last year as the opposition has grown more effective, the government is finding it difficult to manage the flow of information on a disaster. In addition, in the midst of this flight crisis the government is seeming preoccupied by court actions to drive two opposition leaders, Anwar Ibrahim of  Parti Keadilan Rakyat, and Karpal Singh of the Democratic Action Party, out of Parliament.

At the start, the plane was characterized as having simply gone off the radar – until Wednesday, when a report carried in Berita Harian, a government-controlled Malay-language newspaper, quoted Air Force chief Gen. Rodzali Daud as saying Malaysian radar had tracked the missing Boeing 777-200 turning left from its last known location on radar. It then supposedly crossed Malaysia itself and disappeared over the Strait of Malacca.

The report set off a frenzy. CNN and the BBC carried maps of the new possible crash site as it was reported that the massive search for the wreckage had shifted to the waters between Malaysia and Indonesia instead of the South China Sea off the coast of Vietnam.

Then the report was emphatically denied by Daud, who told a press conference that “I wish to state that I did not make any such statements as above."

CNN, however,  quoted an unnamed "senior air force source" as saying the plane indeed had shown up on radar for more than an hour after contact was lost at around 1:30 a.m. Saturday. The craft was last detected, according to the official, near Pulau Perak, a small island in the Strait of Malacca.

Has four days been wasted by a huge flotilla of airplanes and ships that have been scouring the South China Sea for wreckage while the plane might actually be somewhere 900 km. to the west?  The Vietnamese announced they were suspending their participation in the search.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang on Tuesday complained about the lack of progress in finding the plane, saying "We once again request and urge the Malaysia side to enhance and strengthen rescue and searching efforts."  The Chinese government itself is starting to feel the heat, offering to deploy 10 satellites in the effort to find the plane.

The crisis wasn't helped any by a sensational revelation from Australia by a young South African woman that she and a friend had once ridden in the cockpit of an MAS flight from Phuket to Kuala Lumpur at the invitation of the missing co-pilot, Fariq Abdul Hamid, and had pictures of themselves flirting with the pilots, who were even smoking in the cockpit, to prove it.

Since 9/11 in the United States, airline regulations forbid anyone not part of the crew from gaining access to the cockpit. If nothing else, the story and the pictures are an indication of lax flight deck discipline and raise questions if someone could have got into the pilots' cabin aboard MH370.

Wan Azizah: Is everything Anwar’s fault?

Posted: 17 Mar 2014 02:13 AM PDT

Malaysiakini

In questioning a news report which linked the pilot of MH370 to her husband, PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail asked: “Is everything Anwar’s fault?”.

She was responding to UK tabloid Daily Mail‘s report that Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah, a PKR member, is a “political fanatic”.

“There are many PKR members. They say Captain Zaharie cried over the (sodomy) verdict. Millions of other Malaysians did so, too," Wan Azizah said.

Daily Mail had reported that Zaharie (right) was in court when the verdict with regard to Anwar Ibrahim's conviction was delivered less than 24 hours before MH370 took off from KLIA at 12.41am on March 8.

Berita Harian also published a column floating the theory that the mysterious disappearance had to do with claims that most MAS pilots support Pakatan Rakyat.

Wan Azizah also denied that Pakatan is politicising the disappearance of MH370 but was merely criticising what seemed to be poor crisis management on the part of the government.

“We sympathise with the victims but we criticise how the government has handled this crisis. We are not politicising it.
“We see a lack of preparedness for such crises, especially aviation ones. We prepare for floods and crises on land but not in the air. That is the critique,” the Kajang by-election candidate told reporters.

BN leaders had urged Pakatan to stop politicising the missing Malaysia Airlines’ aircraft on the campaign trail.

Meanwhile, PKR Kajang by-election director Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said the party does not dispute that Zaharie is a PKR lifetime member.

“It means he paid the party RM200. Just like I did,” he added.

KONSERT FUTURE MUSIC FESTIVAL ASIA: ABANG KEPADA GADIS YANG MAUT DALAM KONSERT LUAH ISI HATI

Beberapa hari lalu kita digemparkan dengan kematian beberapa remaja dalam konsert 'Future Music Festival Asia' di Stadium Bukit Jalil. Melalui laporan berita, Enam maut termasuk tiga gadis, disyaki akibat mengambil dadah berlebihan sehingga mengalami sesak nafas.

Tidak cukup dengan itu, gambar-gambar mangsa turut disebarkan dalam blog-blog dan media sosial. Namun, abang kepada salah seorang gadis yang meninggal dunia tampil meluahkan isi hatinya mengenai kejadian itu di dalam Akaun Facebook adiknya sendiri, Sabreena Kamarudin. Baca luahan hati beliau:

Assalamualaikum,

Pada 15 Mac 2014, adik saya Sabreena binti Kamarudin telah kembali ke rahmatullah. Saya tidak menafikan apa yang dikatakan oleh media massa tentang apa yang berlaku, di mana adik saya terlibat dengan satu konsert dan telah meninggal dunia.

Arwahyarhamah merupakan seorang yang sangat baik hati, disayangi serta disenangi oleh ahli keluarga dan juga kawan-kawannya. Ramai pihak yang tidak mempercayai apa yang telah berlaku, terutamanya para guru dan sahabat handai kerana perwatakannya yang lemah lembut dan baik budi pekerti sejak dari kecil lagi. Saya sebagai abang turut terkejut dengan berita ini, dan sehingga ke saat ini masih tidak dapat menerima hakikat bahawa adik saya telah kembali kepadaNya dalam keadaan begini.

Saya masih terlibat dalam proses menyiasat dan mencari informasi tentang apa yang telah berlaku, dan saya tidak akan berhenti sehingga nama adik saya bersih seperti sediakala. Saya juga meminta kepada semua pihak agar tidak membuat spekulasi, menambah-nambah cerita, menghina atau mencaci arwahyarhamah atau keluarga. Hormatilah yang telah pergi, dan hormatilah ahli keluarga saya yang masih dalam keadaan trauma. Mereka cuma insan biasa, mereka memerlukan sokongan anda untuk menghadapi ujian dariNya.

Saya ingin meminta pertolongan anda semua agar memadam gambar-gambar arwahyarhamah yang tidak menutup aurat. Selain itu, saya serendah-rendah diri memohon jasa baik sesiapa yang membaca post ini, sama ada anda mengenali arwahyarhamah atau tidak, untuk sama-sama terus mendoakan Sabreena agar ditempatkan di kalangan orang-orang yang beriman dan solehah. Sedekahkan Al-Fatihah untuknya agar beliau mendapat ketenangan di sana.

Ingatlah adikku dalam doamu. - Amirul Aftar. (TTO)

KUALA LUMPUR : Dakwaan tabloid Daily Mail yang menyiarkan berita kaitan Ketua Umum PKR, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim dengan kehilangan pesawat MH370 sebagai akhbar picisan yang banyak melaporkan berita palsu.

Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai, Nurul Izzah Anwar, berkata PKR tidak akan melayan teori konspirasi 'menggila' ini kerana seluruh keutamaan kini tertumpu kepada usaha-usaha mencari dan menyelamat.

Nurul-Izzah"Keutamaan kita untuk menyelamatkan pesawat, penumpang dan kemudiannya mencerakinkan apakah tugasan dan urustadbir yang lebih baik termasuklah hubungan antara agensi yang lebih konsisten dan terbuka supaya kita dapat kenalpasti kalau benar dirampas, siapa yang bertanggungjawab dan dihadapkan ke muka pengadilan.

"Saya harap kita janganlah mengulangi sesuatu yang amat menyakitkan bila berkait dengan sesorang yang tidak mampu mempertahankan dirinya dan saya harap media Malaysia lebih bertanggungjawab daripada apa yang dilakukan Daily Mail," katanya.

Stealth MH370Semalam, akhbar tabloid United Kingdom, Daily Mail melaporkan bahawa juruterbang MH370 Kapten Zaharie Ahmad Shah seorang 'fanatik politik' dan 'aktivis sosial yang lantang'.

Daily Mail juga melaporkan Zaharie menghadiri keputusan perbicaraan liwat Anwar, beberapa jam sebelum menerbangkan pesawat malang itu.

SHAH ALAM,: Pakatan Rakyat (PR) mendakwa Kerajaan Persekutuan mengkhianati Perjanjian Persefahaman (MoU) air yang dibuat dengan Kerajaan Selangor kerana enggan menggunakan Akta Industri Perkhidmatan Air (WSIA) untuk menyelesaikan pertikaian isu pengurusan air negeri ini.

Pemimpin Pakatan, Rafizi Ramli, Tony Pua dan Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad dalam satu kenyataan bersama berkata, WSIA perlu digunakan untuk mengambil alih syarikat konsesi air di Selangor.

MB air MOU"Ini adalah pengkhianatan ke atas perjanjian yang dibuat dengan kerajaan negeri. Keputusan berpatah balik itu tidak boleh diterima dan mengejutkan," kata mereka dalam satu kenyataan pagi ini.

Jumaat lalu, Menteri Tenaga, Teknologi Hijau dan Air, Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili berkata, ketika ini Putrajaya tidak akan menggunakan WSIA untuk mengambil alih syarikat konsesi air di negeri Selangor.

Sehingga kini, tiga konsesi iaitu Puncak Niaga Sdn Bhd (PNSB), Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor (Syabas) dan Syarikat Pengeluar Air Selangor Holdings (Splash) masih belum bersetuju dengan tawaran pengambilalihan pada harga RM9.65 bilion meskipun MoU telah ditandatangani antara Selangor dan Putrajaya pada 26 Februari lalu.

Malah, Dr Maximus sendiri berjanji akan menggunakan WSIA bagi memaksa syarikat konsesi tersebut.

"Tawaran ditolak oleh syarikat konsesi ini. Kerajaan pusat gagal menjalankan tanggungjawab mereka untuk mengesa syarikat konsesi menerima tawaran yang dibuat," kata kenyataan itu.

Sehubungan itu, Pakatan menggesa kerajaan negeri pimpinan Menteri Besar, Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim supaya tidak memberi kelulusan bagi pembinaan loji rawatan air Langat 2.

"Kami akan menggesa kerajaan negeri Selangor, Exco dan Dewan Undangan Negeri untuk menangguhkan baki kelulusan yang diperlukan bagi projek Langat 2.

"Tiada keperluan undang-undang untuk kerajaan negeri memenuhi syarat dalam MoU apabila kerajaan pusat gagal menunjukkan komitmen mereka," katanya.EZY

Anwar Ibrahim


The Malaysia Airlines Pilot’s Politics

Posted: 16 Mar 2014 06:40 PM PDT

Slate

Zaharie Ahmad Shah supported Anwar Ibrahim. That's common sense, not zealotry.

There is an axiom in Malaysian politics: Eventually everything comes back to Anwar Ibrahim. So, the longer that the fumbling and inept investigation into the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 has gone on, the more certain it became that it would somehow boomerang to the leader of the country's democratic opposition.

On Saturday, Prime Minister Najib Razak went before the cameras to declare that officials believe the plane was deliberately diverted and flown in an unknown direction somewhere along a wide arc from Kazakhstan to deep into the Indian Ocean. Now that the search for the Boeing 777 has turned into a criminal investigation, the authorities are taking a close look at the flight's chief pilot, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, and its first officer, Fariq Abdul Hamid.

They quickly learned—as no doubt all of Shah's friends knew—that the pilot was a strong supporter of Anwar Ibrahim's People's Justice Party. Indeed, Shah is believed to have attended Anwar's court hearing on March 7 that overturned his 2012 acquittal on sodomy charges, a politically motivated case that the Malaysian government typically dusts off around election time. On Sunday, the U.K. and Malaysian press treated the revelation with the shock you might reserve for damning evidence. Shah was described—by an unnamed source—as a "fanatical supporter of the country's opposition leader." Elsewhere, he is described (apparently by unnamed police sources) as "fervent" and "strident" in his political convictions. More than a week after the Boeing 777 disappeared, we lack a motive, a clear suspect, or even a crime scene, but we have our "Anwar Ibrahim connection." That is Malaysian politics.

A fanatical supporter of Anwar Ibrahim does sound scary—as long as you know nothing about him.

Anwar is the 66-year old opposition leader who is the principal thorn in the side of the United Malays National Organization (UMNO) that has ruled Malaysia for 56 years. Anwar heads a coalition of parties, which includes his own multiethnic party, that has made the greatest inroads against the country's corrupt masters. In 2008, the opposition won more than a third of the seats in parliament—the first time that UMNO lost its supermajority that allowed it to change the constitution at the prime minister's whim. Anwar, who had been a political prisoner for six years, most of it in solitary confinement, won his seat in a landslide, and the opposition won five of the country's 13 state governments. Last year, his opposition party claimed to have won the election against the ruling party, a contest that many say was marred by widespread fraud. Anwar supported the massive protests that followed the ruling party's supposed victory, but he never called for a toppling of the government.

Anwar is trying to defeat Malaysia's authoritarian regime through elections—not terrorism, let alone revolution. So, to be clear, what we know is that the pilot of MH370 is a fanatical supporter of a nonviolent man who supports a pluralistic and democratic Malaysia.

Of course, we don't know Shah's precise state of mind, and it is true that hours before the flight, his political hero had just been dealt bad news with the court's decision to overturn his previous acquittal. But this is not news that Anwar or his close supporters would have found shocking. On several occasions I have interviewed Anwar, most recently at his home in 2011, he was always forced to operate under the threat of these politically trumped-up charges that he viewed as nothing more than a weak effort to discredit him. Indeed, few Malaysians view the government's accusations as anything other than evidence of crooked politics, and Anwar has only become more popular and UMNO's rule more brittle.

But, if we are engaging in wild theories—and why not, this is Malaysian politics—then why would unnamed police sources be playing up the pilot's political beliefs a week after we are no closer to knowing the truth about MH370? Because the Malaysian authorities' performance during this investigation is a pretty reasonable approximation of what passes for governance in a corrupt, nepotistic regime that long ago lost any purpose besides accumulating wealth and extending its own power. Malaysia has fallen behind its Southeast Asian competitors economically in large part because of its stunted political culture. Acting transportation minister Hishammuddin Hussein's defensive press conferences and updates, which range from opaque to contradictory, are what you'd expect from government ministers who are seldom expected to answer questions.

So, is it possible that Shah hijacked the Malaysia Airlines flight in some twisted form of protest against the government? Of course—even if it seems a less likely explanation than the half dozen other theories that are being floated. Because, whatever happened on board Flight 370, Shah's support of Anwar Ibrahim is the one piece of evidence that suggests he had a firm grip on reality, not that he was trying to escape it.

Malaysia’s Walls of Hope for missing airline

Posted: 16 Mar 2014 06:38 PM PDT

Al Jazeera

[There are] too many contradictions [in the government's official line]. This is not the way to manage a crisis. – Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysian opposition leader

Malaysians awoke last Saturday morning to distressing and unexpected news; one of the national carrier’s planes had gone missing.

As thousands took to social media to express their concern for the 239 people on board flight MH370, Malaysian activist Azrul Khalib and his friends began thinking about a more meaningful way to show their support for those affected.

The result was the Wall of Hope – a place for ordinary people to share their own handwritten messages of hope for passengers and crew.

“We are not able to contribute to the search itself, but we are hoping this small contribution can help console, heal and support the families affected,” said Azrul, who is part of a group called Malaysians for Malaysia.

The first wall was erected in a luxury shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur City Centre on Monday. The response was immediate. The 200 tags printed initially for people to leave their messages on were used up in just half an hour. The mall printed thousands more.

“We want them to know that the whole country is standing next to them and supporting them in this really terrible time. In times like this we discover that there are things bigger than ourselves. We are reminded of our humanity,” Azrul said.

Still searching

Nearly a week after the Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200 went missing on a night flight to Beijing, and with the search for the plane now stretching from the Indian Ocean to the coast of Vietnam, the incident has inspired widespread sympathy for those involved.

But it has also exposed the shortcomings of Malaysia’s government amid ferocious criticism of its handling of the crisis. Information has been patchy and government ministers, the airline and civil servants have sometimes contradicted each other or made comments widely deemed as inappropriate.

Despite the emergence in the country of a vibrant online press, Malaysian ministers are rarely challenged on policy because most of the mainstream media is either owned by the state or the ruling political parties.

Legislation that limits freedom of expression, such as the Sedition Act, cows many journalists and fosters a climate of self-censorship. Investigative journalism is almost unheard of in a country that’s been governed by more-or-less the same coalition since independence in 1957.

At a particularly testy press conference on Wednesday, a government press official even berated journalists over their “ethics” for trying to interview the Chinese ambassador who’d unexpectedly arrived to listen to the proceedings.

The official told the media they should be using the room only to speak to Malaysian officials.

“The government has been so comfortable with the local subservient media that when facing the free international media, they are in disarray,” opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim told parliament the next day.

“[There are] too many contradictions. This is not the way to manage a crisis. Each and every statement must be verified first before being issued.”

Communications breakdown

With the plane seeming to have vanished, and just a handful of facts provided to the public, a multitude of conspiracy theories have flourished.

The aircraft, with 227 passengers and 12 crew representing 14 different nationalities, took off from Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 12:41am on March 9.

Climbing to its cruising altitude of 35,000 feet, the Boeing 777 headed out on a clear night across the South China Sea. Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah and First Officer Fariq Abdul Hamid, signed off from Malaysian air traffic control at 1:30am.

It was their last communication.

The vast area of search, compounded by the possibility that the plane turned back across the Malay Peninsula, has highlighted the limitations not only in technology but also of cooperation at the national, regional and international levels.

“MH370 has revealed real gaps in the government of Malaysia’s capabilities,” said Ernie Bower, senior adviser and Sumitro Chair for Southeast Asia Studies at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington DC.

“The incident has stress-tested Malaysia’s security systems, interagency coordination and maritime and aviation domain awareness capabilities and all three areas have been very publicly revealed as needing serious enhancement.”

As of Friday, some 13 countries were involved in looking for the plane, with 57 ships and 48 aircraft scouring the South China Sea and the north of the Strait of Malacca in what is still being referred to as a search and rescue operation. On Friday, the search was extended further towards the Indian Ocean.

“The investigation team is following all leads that may help locate the missing aircraft,” the Malaysian government said in a media statement. “We continue to work closely with the US team, whose officials have been on the ground in Kuala Lumpur to help with the investigation since Sunday.”

Each day brings new speculation about the reasons for the plane’s disappearance and where it might be, deepening the anguish for those whose friends and family were on board the flight.

Selamat Omar has been staying at a hotel near the airport with other families since the incident happened, waiting for any news on the whereabouts of his son, Mohd Khairul Amri Selamat, who was onboard the plane.

Omar is not interested in apportioning blame; he just wants the aircraft found.

“This is no one’s fault,” he told Al Jazeera. “I don’t think one human being would want to kill another. I don’t think Malaysia Airlines wants to lose money.” Mohd Khairul’s wife was also at the hotel but too distraught to speak to anyone, he said.

It is a view shared by the people adding their messages of support – in languages including English, Malay, Arabic and German – to the now more than 25 Walls of Hope that have been set up around the country.

“We are waiting for a miracle,” said 21-year-old marketing student Andrew Law after he and his friends tied their messages alongside the hundreds of others already on display in one Kuala Lumpur mall.

“We need to have faith.”

Gambar Hiasan

Di suatu kawasan pedalaman di Pahang, seorang penternak yang mempunyai ladang ternak yang luas dan berjaya telah meninggal dunia dengan meninggalkan seorang janda yang masih muda, seksi dan cantik, namanya Siti.

Siti membuat keputusan untuk meneruskan kerjaya suaminya dengan mengambil alih ladang ternakan tersebut, tetapi dia tidak mempunyai kemahiran yang cukup untuk mengendalikan ladangnya. Jadi dia pun membuat keputusan untuk mengiklankan di dalam akhbar untuk mencari seorang pembantu yang akan mengerjakan ladang ternaknya dengan menawarkan gaji dan sebuah bilik di rumahnya sebagai tempat kediaman memandangkan ladang yang dimaksudkan hanya berada di belakang rumahnya.

Selang beberapa hari kemudian ada dua orang pemuda yang memohon pekerjaan tersebut. Seorang pondan, dan seorang kaki mabuk.Memandangkan tiada sesiapa lagi yang memohon jawatan tersebut selain dari dua orang pemuda tadi, Siti terpaksa memilih salah seorang dari mereka.

Setelah menimbangkan semasak-masaknya, Siti memilih si pondan, bernama Man untuk bekerja dengannya, dengan anggapan bahawa dia berasa lebih selamat tinggal bersama seorang pondan daripada tinggal dengan seorang pemabuk.

Minggu demi minggu berlalu. Man telah melakukan tugasnya dengan penuh tekun dan rajin. Man kerap kali menghabiskan waktunya sehingga malam untuk membuat kerja-kerja di ladang ternakan. Ladangnya menjadi semakin berjaya dan ternakan semakin banyak membiak dan sihat-sihat belaka. Gembiralah si janda muda Siti ni tadi... kerana ingin menghargai kerajinan si Man ni, Siti pun berkata kepada Man,
"Man, kau telah melakukan kerja dengan baik dan ladang ternakan pun kulihat semakin bagus, kau sepatutnya ambil cuti pergi ke pekan berjalan-jalan untuk melegakan tekanan kerja..." Gembiralah Man, dan pada suatu malam minggu, dia pun pergi ke pekan.

Sampailah ke tengah malam, Man tak pulang-pulang ke rumah. Pukul 1 tak pulang, pukul 2 tak pulang. Pukul 2.30 pagi barulah Man pulang kerumah. Sampai ke rumah, didapati Siti sedang menunggunya sambil duduk di sofa berhampiran Tv.
Siti menghampiri Man perlahan....
"Buka butang bajuku dan tanggalkannya." Kata Siti.
Man dengan tangan yang terketar-ketar dan perasaan yang terkejut,melakukan apa yang diarahkan.
"Sekarang, buka kasut ku."
Man buat, perlahan sekali.
"Buka, setokin ku.."
Dia buat juga.
"Sekarang, buka skirt ku."
Dia buat juga.
"Sekarang buka coliku."
Dengan tangan yang menggigil, dia buat apa yang disuruh.
"Sekarang....buka seluar dalamku..."
Dengan perlahan, dia melucutkannya ke bawah dan menanggalkannya.
Kemudian, Siti pun memandang Man, sambil berkata...
"Sekali lagi kau pergi pekan dengan memakai pakaian aku, aku pecat kau on the spot."
