Some lies for BN to answer

The Barisan Nasional had said it many times that they will “answer the opposition’s lies” (menjawab tohmahan-tohmahan pembangkang) and recently we are told that Sabah BN will have its own body to work on these answers. As a member of the opposition I am naturally challenged about such so-called lies and I am very interested to hear what BN has to say about a few ‘lies’ that we have been repeating over the years. I would therefore like to volunteer my services to this body (to answer our lies) by providing a list of such lies. I of course expect this body to answer all these lies as clearly and as convincingly as they can as soon as possible:

Jeffrey to BN parties: Join United Borneo Alliance

Jeffrey to BN parties: Join the United Borneo Alliance (UBA) to safeguard Sabah, Sarawak"

“The political parties in Sabah and Sarawak should unite under one banner, the United Borneo Alliance (UBA), to safeguard and protect the rights and autonomy of the Borneo States” said Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, the Chairman of UBF.

The Man that Serves Najib Tun Razak

Until 2 weeks ago, 98% Malaysians were under the apprehension that precious resources of this country is being wasted on subsidy.

The main man behind the dissemination of this information is the esteem CEO of PEMANDU (equivalent to a Minister without a Portfolio in the Cabinet), Mr Idris Jala.

Najib's 2012 Budget: Using GST to pay for Budget's cash incentives

Recent economic reports show that the growth predictions of the Prime Minister unveiled in Budget 2012 are not realistic. The latest is the projection made by the Malaysian Institute of Economics Research (MIER), which lowered its projection of 2011 economic growth to 4.6%.

Based on the global economic reality, the 5%-6% growth target will be diifficult to achieve. This will affect the national income for the year 2012 caused by the decrease in the collection of taxes and other revenue following slower economic growth in 2012.

Najib wash own hands and blame others

6% prepaid tax: 'Gov't unfairly shifting blame'

The government should have known that the telecommunications companies would pass the six percent service charge to consumers, when the it announced the service tax hike on Jan 1.

Saying this is a press statement today, PKR director of strategy Rafizi Ramli pointed out that by claiming ignorance, the government is actually washing its hands off its own doing.

"No ultimatum only harsh realities – “Time and tide waits for no man”

I respectfully disagree with PR’s position that defines national political change as being based on (1) a titanic struggle between BN vs PR (2) that those opposed to BN must “unite & join” under a single banner to give PR the additional 30+ seats in Sarawak & Sabah.

BN Needs Borneo States More

By: Amde Sidik

BROWSING through Malaysia’s Internet news portal and blogs alike, there is a sense of confusion and panicking in UMNO camp, very serious one no less crucial than when the Malay had two UMNOs.

UMNO leaders have been trying hard to entice PAS leaders to rejoin BN some were tempted no doubt. But a leader like Tok Guru knows what it is like in UMNO’s fold.

His rock solid stand surely tough to crack, his steadfast is something that our leaders can emulate; a no u-turn to BN is a great example.
