KRISIS POLITIK

1. Perdana Menteri mendakwa krisis politik bermula apabila saya, Mahathir Mohamad letak jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri.

2. Benarkah, tiba-tiba tanpa sebab saya letak jawatan? Saya yang kononnya disokong oleh parti Kerajaan dan parti lawan, termasuk Najib Tun Razak dan beberapa lagi yang sedang dibicara atas tuduhan rasuah menyokong saya? Ini tidak masuk akal.

3. Yang benar ialah saya letak jawatan kerana dalam pengakuan di hadapan Duli Yang Maha Mulia Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong saya tidak dapat sokongan dari penyokong saya. Saya tidak dapat majoriti dan tidak lagi layak menjadi Perdana Menteri.

4. Di Istana peletakan jawatan saya diterima. Saya diarah pegang jawatan Perdana Menteri buat sementara.

5. Siapa yang akan ganti saya. Rakyat bosan dengan orang politik yang lebih utama politik dari pentadbiran yang baik. Saya cadang diadakan satu Kerajaan Nasional yang bukan orang politik yang berpengetahuan juga akan menyertai Kerajaan. Orang parti juga akan menyertai Kerajaan tetapi sebagai orang biasa yang tidak tertakluk kepada agenda parti mereka.

6. Tetapi cadangan saya ditolak. Saya pun letak jawatan. Dan berlarutanlah krisis ini. Saya tidak tahu bila ia akan tamat??

A REMINDER

1. The United States of America (USA) is the greatest power in the history of mankind. Certainly it is the most powerful military power in the world today. It has the capacity to wipe off the whole of humanity if it chooses to do so.

2. But the Americans must remember the Vietnam War. The great power, employing all its military might, all its technology and huge sums of money was defeated by the black pajama-clad unimpressive undersized Vietnamese.

3. Tens of thousands of American soldiers died. Many more seriously wounded both in body and mind. For all these sacrifices what has America gained? Nothing, truly nothing that could not be gained by peaceful means.

4. The Vietnamese fought and died for their country. Such passionate patriotism is totally justified. That too will be the passion of other countries attacked by America or other powers. Defense and the sacrifices made for one’s country is to be expected. But those who sacrifice their lives in aggressive wars die for nothing.
5. Remember Iraq also. It was supposed to be over in three months. But it is still on today almost 18 years later. Saddam is dead but is Iraq much better than Saddam’s times? I do not think autocracy is right. But if democracy is the answer, expecting it to perform miracles overnight is stupid.

6. Iranian military chief, General Suleimani was assassinated in Iraq by the very people who condemned the killing of Khashoggi. Is there any diffirence between the killing of Suleimani and that of Khashoggi?

P.S.
The fire raging in Australia is not an Australian affair. It affects the whole world. It is an international catastrophe. The whole world should help Australia put out the fire. Unfortunately, this is not being done.

KERAJAAN PAKATAN HARAPAN

1. When a new party takes over as a Government, it would be a miracle if it were to execute all its plans and promises overnight. Certainly, when PH took over from BN which had ruled the country for the past 60 years, it would be an even greater miracle if it can implement its plans and agenda immediately. It is not taking over just any Government. It took over from a kleptocratic Government which had raped the nation for years, destroyed its finances, undermined its administrative agencies, abused its laws, borrowed well beyond the ceiling permitted, placed the country on the path to bankruptcy, made the people dependent on the Government with bribes and generally undermined the moral of the people.

2. Of course, a lot of people were happy to enjoy corrupt money and many illegal favours. They would like these bad practices to continue. But the majority of the people knew the sad state of the country and ensured that the corrupt Government was overthrown.

3. This was a miracle of sorts. A “hodge-podge” coalition of 4 parties, together with another party outside the coalition and even a person not linked in any way to the parties, took over.

4. They were united only in the desire to bring down the kleptocratic Government. Otherwise they each had their own ideology and agenda. In other countries when a common objective is achieved, the fragile unity would break up as each party would try to take over. A bitter struggle would ensue. In the end the coalition would break up. In one Middle Eastern country, the ensuing struggles ended up with the military seizing power. It was back to square one.

5. This did not happen in Malaysia. The fragile opposition coalition was sustained, even with the inclusion of a non-member party as well as an independent individual who joined the cabinet. They formed a Government. And they seem to be working together, having formed a cabinet without any written agreement as to who takes what. This is the 2nd miracle. The cabinet seems to work. At least they can meet, discuss and make decisions. Of course, many criticised their decisions. This is normal. No Government can have the approval of everyone every time. The important thing is that this fragile cabinet is still functioning.

6. But many would say, this Government is directionless. Is it? Let’s look at what it has done. Despite a huge debt of well over a trillion Ringgit, it apparently has been able to retain the solvency of the country. The creditors are not suing the Government. Indeed, some are even keen to lend more money at low rates. The Government is clearly credit worthy. The debt has been reduced.

7. Politically the country is stable. Yes, there are some disturbances in a member of the ruling coalition. But this is normal. No one has tried to overthrow the Government by a vote of non-confidence. They know it will not succeed.

8. Then the economy. It is still growing at a good rate for a country at this stage of development. Yes, there is an outflow of funds and the currency has been devalued. This is a function of the market. Malaysia still has the biggest savings. Bank Negara Reserve is very high – RM400 billion plus. Other funds, such as PNB, KWSP, and some smaller funds add up to over RM1.5 trillion. Foreign assets are big. National Oil Company Petronas is doing well with more than 100 billion income. It is 100% Government owned. Yes, the Ringgit is depreciating. In many other countries, reserves of this size would guarantee the strength of the national currency. But the market apparently cannot believe this strength of the Malaysian finances and its currency.

9. The fact is that the Malaysian economy and its currency are strong. The market and the detractors may not think so. But the Government has faith in its financial and economic policies. And so do foreign and local investors.

10. Socially, the Government has launched the Shared Prosperity scheme. For our detractors this does not indicate clear direction. But for the Government the direction is clear. We don’t want just to recover and be prosperous. We want to share our wealth equitably.

11. Towards this end we have initiated a new industrial plan, complemented by a new agricultural plan. I will not elaborate. But we know the direction we are going. Outsiders may not. But we do.

12. We are clear as to what we want to do and how we will do it. Plans may take a week or so to create but implementation will take much longer, at least two years or more. But the work has already begun. For the observers it would seem that nothing is moving. Rome was not built in one day. When Malaysia was switching from an agro-based economy to an industrial economy, it also took time. But most of us could not remember and the young never saw the transition. Most were born when the transition was accomplished. It is difficult to imagine an agricultural Malaysia today.

13. The same will happen now. The transition will take time – perhaps two years or more from now. But believe me it will happen. Indeed in some ways it is already happening. We are going paperless and soon there will be cashless. Digitalisation is already happening and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is contributing towards increasing speed of work and transaction.

14. Even for me it is frustrating to wait. But wait we must. The machinery of Government has been cleansed and is rapidly adapting to the new ways of working. Even the Ministers are adjusting to being in the Government instead of the opposition.

15. The accusation that this PH Government is directionless is made by those who refuse to acknowledge reality. Are we really the same as the Malaysia under the previous Government? Or are they saying they prefer the kleptocratic Government better.

16. We don’t steal money nor raise loans so as to have money for bribing people. We spend what we have. What we have is less money. We cannot afford to give free money to people. Our way is to increase or create jobs. But the people must be willing to take up the jobs or the business opportunities created.

17. We are doing all these. But we are not attracting attention to them. In time they will become clear contribution to the country’s economy.

18. The world today is in a state of turmoil. No one is really doing well. Look at what is happening in Latin America, the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Africa, South Asia, even Australia. Only China, Japan, and South Korea are doing relatively well, but even the countries of Northeast Asia are having intractable problems.

19. Then look at Malaysia. We are stable, peaceful and the Government respects the law. We are removing draconian laws or suspending them pending abolishment or amendment. People feel safe travelling anywhere in the country. During the celebration of the new year 60 to 80 thousand people gathered to enjoy the shows. This cannot happen even in some developed countries.

20. I will not talk about natural disasters. We have been spared though we are not quite grateful.

21. Yes. Malaysia is recovering from the disasters caused by the previous Kleptoctatic Government. Even now we are enjoying better governance.

22. Give the Government a little bit of time and participate fully in the Shared Prosperity Policies, and in two years time you will realise that the direction of the Government is right.

THE OKINAWA VILLAGE SHOP

1. Okinawa is a long thin island 100 km from north to south. In the old days the people in the south found difficulty in getting supplies from the north.

2. The people in the villages decided to have a shop stocked with their needs. They collected money from their village and built a shop. They employed a man from the village to manage the shop. Money was provided by the villagers to stock the shop with their needs brought in from the north.

3. The villagers bought their needs but did not pay immediately. Instead they themselves wrote on a piece of paper their name and the goods they had taken. Each time they needed goods or foodstuff they wrote on the piece of paper with their name and stuck it to a board kept in the shop.

4. At the end of the month they would total up all their purchase written on their paper and pay the amount due. The money was kept in a safe.

5. Later when business was not so good they put up a table and a few chairs and started selling drinks and coffee.
6. Every village would have this commonly owned village shop. It was a kind of cooperative, owned and operated by the villagers.

7. Today most of them have disappeared as access to their needs became easier due to better road, motorcycles and cars. The one I visited is one of the few left.

8. It worked well in Okinawa. Wonder if it will work well in Malaysia.

KRISIS KEWANGAN

1. Saya mengaku saya terlibat dengan ciptaan pendekatan untuk mengatasi masalah kewangan pada 1997- 1998.

2. Ya, memang pun cara kita selesaikan krisis menolong taikun di Malaysia.

3. Memanglah baik jika kita tidak menolong taikun dan biarkan mereka dan perniagaan mereka rugi, gagal dan terpaksa ditutup.

4. Dengan ini semua kakitangan mereka (yang kaya dan tidak kaya) akan menganggur. Eksport kita akan menurun dan tidak akan ada pengaliran wang asing ke dalam negara kita.

5. Kerajaan pula akan hilang cukai korporat dan cukai pendapatan kerana sebahagian besar cukai dibayar oleh taikun. Sebahagian besar dari dana Kerajaan akan hilang. Operasi dan pembangunan negara tidak dapat diteruskan. Segala infrastruktur tidak dapat dibangunkan.

6. Dalam keadaan kehilangan cukai keatas taikun kitaterpaksa mengenakan cukai kepada yang bukan ditakrif sebagai taikun. Setelah membayar cukai oleh bukan taikun, mereka akan masuk dalam golongan mereka yang miskin.

7. Pada satu masa 70 tahun dahulu taikun dibunuh dan harta mereka dirampas di beberapa buah negara. Semua perniagaan dan perusahaan diambil oleh pemerintah dengan harapan 100% dari keuntungan akan diperolehi oleh Kerajaan.

8. Jika kita hendak kita boleh halau keluar semua taikun ini. Jangan tolong mereka. Biar mereka bankrap. Kita akan tolong yang bukan taikun sahaja.

9. Tetapi dengan apakah yang kita hendak tolong bukan taikun ini selepas semua taikun tidak dapat bayar cukai.

10. Itu soalannya?

11. Saya minta maaf kerana tindakan saya mengatasi krisis kewangan 1997-1998 menguntung taikun.

THE MALAY DIGNITY CONGRESS

  1. I attended the Congress on Malay dignity – (maruah) because I am a Malay.

 

  1. It is common in this multiracial country for the citizens to retain their identification with their countries of origin even after being in Malaysia and holding its citizenship for three generations. They do not want to lose their racial identities.

 

  1. They manifest this ethnic link through their language, culture, schools and ethnic organisations. They often hold meetings confined to their ethnic group. Sometimes I would be invited to open these meetings and asked to give keynote speeches.

 

  1. In multiracial Malaysia, ethnicity is recognised as legitimate and proper. Other multiracial countries see non-indigenous people identifying themselves with the indigenous citizens almost completely. They adopt the language and culture of the indigenous people and break their link with their countries of origin. They even change their names.

 

  1. It is a measure of the tolerance of the indigenous people in Malaysia that gatherings which are confined to the different ethnic groups are accepted as normal.

 

  1. I am therefore very surprised when I was advised not to attend this Malay Congress to discuss their dignity. Obviously they are concerned over their possible loss of dignity, whatever that might mean. As usual there were extreme views but on the whole they were balanced.

 

  1. It cannot be that while other ethnic groups can have their gatherings to discuss their affairs, the Malays cannot, that their gathering is racist.

 

  1. And now there is even a demand that the Malay initiator of the gathering should be sacked for attending.

 

  1. When the former colonies of the European nations gained independence, many discriminated against the non-Indigenous people. Some had to leave the country. Some were violently attacked.

 

  1. Not so in this country. The non-indigenous people were accepted as citizens. In fact, 1 million of the non-indigenous people were given citizenship even though they were not qualified.

 

  1. It hurts me to think in their own country the indigenous people are not supposed to have their own gatherings without being accused of being racist.

 

  1. And now of course I will be labelled a racist for writing this.

TAK BEKERJA

1. Semasa saya berumur belasan tahun, saya dapat perhatikan keadaan di Alor Star. Masa itu Negeri-Negeri Melayu sedang dijajah oleh British. Negeri-Negeri Melayu terima baik penjajahan British.
2. Yang tidak dapat dinafi ialah British membawa sistem Pemerintahan yang lebih baik dan Negeri-Negeri mengalami sedikit sebanyak pembangunan.
3. British membuka ladang-ladang getah dan lombong bijih timah. Yang anehnya tidak ada orang Melayu yang bekerja dalam ladang dan lombong ini. Pekerja terdiri dari orang India dan Cina. Perniagaan kedai runcit dan aneka jenis tukang-tukang semuanya terdiri dari orang Cina.
4. Dimanakah orang Melayu? Mereka bekerja dalam sawah padi mereka, dan ada sedikit yang menjadi nelayan. Sebilangan kecil dari mereka bekerja dengan Kerajaan sebagai kerani. Lebih kecil lagi ialah bilangan merekayang memegang jawatan tinggi dalam Kerajaan. Mereka ini semua berbangga kerana dibayar gaji tetap dan pencen.
5. Yang tidak terdapat ialah orang Melayu yang berniaga atau bekerja sebagai buruh kasar. Orang Melayu pandang hina bidang-bidang ini.
6. Oleh kerana sikap ini tidak terdapat ramai orang Melayu yang tinggal di bandar-bandar. Pada masa itu pun bandar-bandar didiri dan dipenuhi dengan kedai Cina. Tidak ada kedai Melayu. Ada beberapa buah kedai makan dan rempah cabai orang India.
7. Raja-Raja Melayu tidak iktiraf orang Cina dan India sebagai rakyat. Kepercayaan mereka ialah orang ini, akan kembali ke Negara masing-masing apabila khidmat mereka tidak diperlu lagi.
8. Orang Cina biasanya berhijrah ke Negara lain jika mereka nampak peluang mencari makan. Mereka berhijrah ke Amerika dan Australia dan ke Negara-Negara jajahan British. Melihat kestabilan pemerintahan British dan peluang kerja, mereka datang dengan ramai ke Negeri-Negeri Melayu. Mereka sanggup bekerja keras. Dikenali sebagai kuli mereka sanggup buat kerja kotor, kerja berat dan merbahaya. Mereka sanggup menarik “langca”, dan apa sahaja yang memberi pendapatan kepada mereka. Ramaiperempuan Cina yang menjadi “amah” di rumah pembesar Melayu, menjaga anak dan membersih rumah.
9. Orang Melayu berasa senang kerana kerja berat, kotor dan berbahaya serta perniagaan dilakukan oleh orang asing. Jika mereka lihat kekayaan dan kemajuan orang asing ini, mereka tidak berasa khuatir sedikit pun. Kepercayaan mereka ialah Negeri mereka kekal sebagai milik mereka. Itu yang saya lihat. Semasa saya muda di zaman British timbul keinginan melihat orang Melayu berniaga juga. Di Alor Star dibina Pekan Rabu, pekan sari dimana orang kampung boleh menjual sedikit sebanyak pisang dan buah-buahan bakul dan raga anyaman mereka. Perniagaan mereka tidak menjadibesar. Mereka berniaga secara sambilan. Mereka tidak berniat pun untuk membesar perniagaan. Setakat kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang, itu sahaja.
10. Tetapi anggapan mereka meleset. Kerana mereka tidak sanggup bekerja kuat, tidak sanggup berniaga secara serius mereka terus miskin. Jarak antara mereka dengan kaum lain yang bekerja kuat dan berniaga menjadi semakin luas. Yang berlaku ialah yang sudah kaya menjadi lebih kaya dan orang Melayu yang miskin menjadi lebih miskin. Ini sudah ditakdir. Tak perlu buat apa-apa.
11. Sepatutnya orang Melayu sedar terhadap apa yang berlaku kepada mereka. Malangnya mereka tidak sedar. Sehingga sekarang pun orang Melayu masih tidak sedar. Mereka masih enggan bekerja. Orang Melayu masih rela serah segala kerja kepada orang asing. Dan orang asing pun membanjiri Negara kita. Tujuh juta orang asing masih berada di sini sekarang ini. Mereka bekerja. Apakah akan terjadi kepada orang Melayu. Tentulah apa yang sudah jadi dahulu kepada Negara dan orang Melayu, yang akan terus jadi. Ada yang dakwa orang Melayu adalah Tuan. Tuan apa? Orang miskin, orang yang tidak ada kebolehan, orang yang bergantung kepada belas kasihan orang lain, Tuankah.
12. Nasib kita di tangan kita. Memarahi orang lain tak akan menyelesai masalah kita. Bilangan kita dikatakan bertambah. Tetapi jumlah besar orang yang miskin tidak dapat bersaing dengan jumlah kecil orang yang kaya.

 

 

CONTRADICTION

 

1. I have been accused of contradicting my own stand in my response towards alleged sexual improprieties affecting a member of my Cabinet in 1998 and the on-going sex video issue linking another member of my current Cabinet.

 

2. There is no contradiction.

 

3. The action taken in 1998 was not based on the video clip. That came later. The court had already made its decision. The subsequent videos did not influence the court or anyone else. It did not influence me.

 

4. In this recent case, the video came first. Obviously it is an attempt to blacken the name of the particular person in order to blight his future.

 

5. If I were to take the action expected of me I would become an accessory to the plot. I have no intention to become the instrument of the plotters. I will not be a part of such dirty politics.

VIDEO LUCAH

1. Saya sering ditanya berkenaan video lucah.

2. Video ini dibuat dan di viral jelas untuk tujuan politik. Khusus untuk menghalang kejayaan politik individu tertentu.

3. Tindakan yang diharap menyusul tayangan ini ialah penyingkiran individu yang disasar.

4. Tindakan ini boleh diambil oleh saya kerana saya berkuasa.

5. Apabila saya ambil tindakan ini maka berjayalah pihak yang merancang perbuatan jahat ini.

6. Agama saya melarang sengaja mengintip mencari keburukan orang. Apa yang dilakukan lebih buruk dari mengintip.

7. Saya tidak sanggup diperalatkan. Jauh sekali oleh perancang yang berniat jahat dan mengguna politik kotor.

8. Ini bukan soal moral. Ini adalah masalah politik. Ia akan ditangani sebagai isu politik.

MENDAULATKAN ISLAM


  1. Saya mengalu-alukan perhimpunan umat Islam yang bertujuan mempertahan kedaulatan Islam dan Perlembagaan. Saya sokong penuh tujuan-tujuan tersebut.
  2. Tetapi saya tertanya-tanya samada benar tujuan mendaulat Islam atau bertujuan mendapat sokongan bagi parti-parti politik tertentu. Yang pertamanya yang memimpin dan berucap ialah pemimpin Parti politik UMNO dan PAS. Dan akhbar melapor hasrat perhimpunan ialah untuk memperingati Kerajaan akan kedudukan agama Islam.
  3. Jika ia bertujuan mendaulat Islam, sepatutnya ia tidak terhad kepada parti politik tertentu sahaja. Gandingan parti-parti ini tidak mencerminkan solidariti orang Islam. Bahkan ia mengasing dan memisah umat Islam di Malaysia.
  4. PAS sejak awal lagi mendakwa orang parti UMNO adalah kafir kerana bekerjasama dengan orang kafir. Dakwaan ini masih tidak dibatalkan. Bahkan Amanat Hadi yang mendakwa Kerajaan UMNO adalah kafir dan kematian pejuang melawan Kerajaan UMNO, jika meninggal adalah syahid.
  5. Sekaligus dakwaan PAS dan Amanat Hadi memecah belah orang Melayu buat kali pertama. Orang Melayu semuanya beragama Islam dan termasuk golongan Sunni (Ahli Sunnah Wal Jamaah) pimpinan Imam Shafie. Tidak ada kelainan pendapat atau fahaman mereka berkenaan agama Islam sejak dahulu kala lagi. Mereka berpecah dengan mendalam dan teruk hanya apabila PAS ditubuh dan mendakwa orang UMNO kafir kerana bekerjasama dengan orang kafir. Demikianlah taksubnya orang PAS terhadap dakwaan ini sehingga ada yang anggap ibu bapa mereka yang menyertai UMNO sebagai kafir. Mereka dakwa perkahwinan orang UMNO tidak sah dan perlu dikahwin semula. Sembelihan orang UMNO haram dan tidak boleh dimakan oleh orang PAS dan bermacam lagi.
  6. Sehingga sekarang PAS tidak pernah batalkan dakwaan UMNO kafir mereka dan Amanat Hadi. Bagi PAS orang yang tidak sertai PAS adalah kafir. Mengikut PAS hanya ahli PAS sahaja Islam. Sudah tentu orang Islam yang mencari suaka di Negara bukan Islam sudah jadi kafir.
  7. Bagaimanakah PAS bersama UMNO berhak dakwa perhimpunan mereka menggambar solidariti orang Islam untuk kedaulatan Islam.
  8. Ada pula orang yang berjawatan, yang membisu seribu bahasa berkenaan dakwaan PAS dan Amanat Hadi. Apakah mereka terima kesahihan dakwaan PAS dan Amanat Hadi.
  9. Ada orang Islam yang kononnya ingin mengamal ajaran Islam. Tumpuan mereka adalah kepada perkara yang kecil yang mempunyai unsur politik. Sebaliknya larangan keras agama Islam tidak mendapat teguran dari mereka.
  10. Sekarang kita sudah dapati orang Islam Malaysia yang menyertai peperangan sesama orang Islam. Mereka sanggup membunuh orang Islam, sesuatu yang dilarang oleh agama Islam. Tidak ada gerakan oleh orang Islam yang ingin mendaulatkan Islam ini yang berhujah berkenaan dosanya membunuh, terutama membunuh orang Islam.
  11. Orang Islam itu bersaudara. Tetapi persaudaraan orang Islam dihapuskan dengan penubuhan PAS yang memperalatkan Islam secara salah untuk hancurkan persaudaraan antara orang Melayu Islam yang wujud sebelum PAS ditubuh.
  12. Yang lebih buruk lagi ialah melaungkan nama Allah semasa himpunan untuk memperkuatkan politik pecah belah oleh parti. Nama Allah diguna untuk menghalalkan penolakan ajaran Islam bahawa mengkafir orang Islam tanpa sebab yang nyata. Membuat dosa dengan melaku amalan yang dilarang oleh agama tidak sepatutnya disusuli dengan menyebut nama Allah.
  13. Islam melarang mencuri, tetapi PAS berunding dan bekerjasama dengan pemerintahan sebelum ini yang terkenal dalam dunia sebagai pemerintahan pencuri. Sekarang PAS terus berganding bahu dengan orang yang ditolak oleh masyarakat kerana mencuri.
  14. Ramai juga orang Melayu yang kerap menuduh Kerajaan ini tidak mendaulatkan Islam. Tetapi sebaliknya rombongan demi rombongan orang Islam datang dari negara-negara Islam lain yang dakwa bahawa Malaysia adalah contoh negara Islam. Dimana-mana juga di luar Negara terdapat orang Islam yang pandang tinggi Malaysia sebagai negara Islam. Mereka nyatakan keinginan melihat negara mereka menjadi seperti Malaysia.
  15. Kata mereka penduduk Negara mereka yang 100% Islam tidak pun dapat mentadbir dan menstabilkan Negara mereka, jauh sekali dari membangun Negara mereka. Kerap kali mereka bermusuh sesama mereka, membunuh dan berperang. Demikianlah huru hara di Negara mereka sehingga ramai yang terpaksa berhijrah ke Negara bukan Islam. Kelainan suku kaum, kelainan fahaman ajaran Islam, kelainan politik, kelainan pemimpin menghalang keamamanan. Kerapkali mereka terpaksa akur dengan kehendak kuasa besar yang bukan Islam. Ada juga yang dipengaruhi oleh Yahudi, samada secara langsung atau tidak langsung.
  16. Orang Islam di Negara-negara ini sering kagum dengan Islam di Malaysia. Mereka tidak mendakwa bahawa Islam tidak didaulat di Malaysia. Yang menuduh hanya orang Islam di Malaysia sahaja.
  17. Ya. Kita tidak potong tangan, tidak pancung kepala, tidak lontar batu untuk bunuh wanita yang dituduh berzina. Kita tidak berbuat demikian kerana Islam utamakan keadilan. Apakah adil memotong tangan orang Islam tetapi mengenakan penjara dua bulan pencuri bukan Islam. Apakah adil menghukum wanita yang dirogol tetapi tidak lelaki yang merogol. Ya. Tidak ada empat orang saksi. Tetapi ada bukti lain. Ingatlah Zulaikha bersalah kerana baju Yusuf koyak dibelakang. Ini disebut dalam Al-Quran. Di zaman ini kita boleh kenal perogol melalui berbagai cara.
  18. Syariat Islam mengutama keadilan, bukan hukum dan bukan saksi. Sesuatu yang tidak adil bukan Islam. Menentukan keadilan adalah ajaran Islam.
  19. Sesungguhnya tuduhan yang dilempar terhadap Kerajaan bukan kerana tidak mendaulat Islam, tetapi semata-mata kerana politik. Dalam usaha ini agama Islam yang suci menjadi buruk kerana kepentingan bukan agama.
  20. Sekali lagi saya ingin bertanya kepada Haji Hadi dan PAS samada mereka masih nafikan Islam saya dan orang yang bukan menjadi ahli atau penyokong PAS.
