2. Mungkin dia
telah melakukan kesalahan yang besar yang tindakan ini perlu diambil.
Tetapi secara kebetulan tindakan terhadap Presiden UIA ini diambil
sejurus selepas dia keluar daripada UMNO. Apakah perbuatan beliau ini
yang menyebabkan dianya disingkir?

3. Secara kebetulan juga
sehari selepas dia berkempen untuk anak saya di Jerlun pejabat syarikat
UIA Holdings Sdn Bhd milik UIA telah digeledah oleh Badan Pencegah
Rasuah. Tidak ada apa-apa kesalahan dikesan yang dilakukan oleh
Syarikat atau Tan Sri Sanusi.

Bas-bas
ini dikatakan asalnya milik Intrakota dan City Liner yang telah
diambilalih oleh Rapid KL yang dipercayai adalah milik Khazanah.
Bas-bas ini masih boleh diguna atau boleh diperbaiki dan dijual oleh
Rapid KL. 

Tetapi Rapid KL tidak berusaha bersungguh-sungguh
untuk mendapat balik sedikit pun daripada kos pembelian
syarikat-syarikat ini. 

Kenapa?

1.
When the Government gave ex-gratia payments to the judges involved in
the Tun Salleh Abas removal as the Lord President of Malaysian courts,
the question that needs to be answered is whether it is because of
Government regrets over something that happened not during the period
this Government was in power or is it because of a desperate attempt to
win support after the disastrous results of the election of 2008.

2.
Had the present Government felt regret, it should have paid ex-gratia
payment (for want of a better term) upon achieving power. But obviously
it only felt regret lately, after its brand new de facto Minister of
Law, who incidentally was suspended for money politics, suggested the
move in order to win the approval of the Bar Council.

(VERSI BAHASA MALAYSIA DI AKHIR ARTIKEL INI)

The
price of crude oil has increased by 400 percent in the last three
years. It follows that the price of products must increase, sooner or
later. In other countries petrol prices had already increased. In the
United Kingdom one litre of petrol sells for more than one pound
sterling or RM7. In the United States it is about RM5.

That the
price in neighbouring countries has gone up is shown by the rush to
fill up by Thai and to a lesser extent Singapore vehicles.

The
Government has now announced an increase in petrol price by 78 sen to
RM2.70 per litre, an increase of more than 40 per cent.

2. But clearly the Royal Commission on the Lingam tapes has allowed itself the liberty of stretching legal principles in order possibly to achieve a certain objective.

3. One sentence in the report is very telling and I quote, “In the process, Dr Mahathir Mohamad was also entangled. That possibility was ominous when
examined against the factual circumstances surrounding the rejection of
Malek Ahmad as Chief Judge of Malaya. Their ultimate aim or purpose could not be ascertained with exactitude given
the limitation under the (Commission) terms of reference. It could be
related to the fixing of cases as submitted by counsel for the Bar and
others. Certainly it is reasonable to suggest that it could not be anything but self-serving.”

It
is strange that whenever people like Param Cumaraswamy accuse others of
being racist they end up by exposing the racist in them. For them you
are racist only if you talk about Malays and their need to catch up
with other races. If you talk of the imagined plight of other races in
Malaysia, and make ridiculous statements that the Tamil Indians in
Malaysia are facing “ethnic cleansing” when you know that no such thing
is happening, it is not racist.

It is only in Malaysia that
people of immigrant origins, so identified by their insistence on being
linked race-wise with their countries of origin, are actually accepted
as citizens.
