Kow Cheong Wei mencadangkan agar MCA keluar Barisan Nasional

Ketua Pemuda MCA Selangor, Kow Cheong Wei mencadangkan agar MCA keluar Barisan Nasional bersama-sama parti komponen yang lain, termasuk Gerakan dan MIC.

"Kami tidak mahu dipandang ringan.  Jadi, apakah kita perlu meninggalkan BN, berdikari dan kemudiannya kembali ke BN semula?" Kow Cheong Wei dipetik oleh Sinchew Daily untuk berkata sedemikian dalam satu dialog politik bersama Pemuda MCA di Selangor dan Wilayah Persekutuan pada 30 April.

Beliau mendakwa dirinya menerima banyak sms yang mencadangkan agar MCA keluar dari BN.  Jadi, Kow Cheong Wei melontarkan persoalannya, dalam keadaan di mana matlamat BN tidak selari dengan dirinya, apakah MCA yang mendahulukan masyarakat Cina perlu keluar dari BN, membina kewibawaan dirinya di kalangan komuniti Cina, dan kembali ke BN selepas itu (cukup berwibawa)?

AminulRasyid Death

Kit Siang says panel ‘powerless’

By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani

KUALA LUMPUR, May 4 — Lim Kit Siang (picture) today described the government’s special panel on Aminulrasyid Amzah’s shooting death as “powerless” and asked the Cabinet to put an end to what he called the Home Ministry’s “guerilla” response to rising public anger.
The DAP leader also criticised the ministry for flip-flopping on the “powers” of the panel.
“The powerless Special Panel into Aminulrasyid’s police killing is neither fish nor fowl even with Tun Haniff as member, as well as other members including former Suhakam commissioner Denison Jayasooria, crime analyst Kamal Affendi Hashim, lawyer Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (Asli) chief executive officer Dr Michael Yeoh and UiTM deputy vice-chancellor Prof Abdul Halim Sidek.
“The guerilla response of the Home Ministry could be seen from the on-the-run chop-and-change as to what the Special Panel can and cannot do,” he said.

Oil 'sell-out': All avoiding answers, says Lim

By FMT Staff

PETALING JAYA: The statements by Wisma Putra, Petronas, Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak and former premier Abdullah Ahmad Badawi regarding the oil “sell-out” to Brunei all have one common purpose – to avoid answering two important questions, said DAP leader Lim Kit Siang.
The two questions are:

• When and why Malaysia ceded away Malaysian sovereignty to two oil and gas-rich offshore areas in South China Sea, namely Block L and Block M, in favour of Brunei? and
• When did Brunei surrender its territorial claim of sovereignty to Limbang and recognise full Malaysian sovereignty instead?

Lim said although Wisma Putra, Najib and Abdullah knew fully well that their statements would be scrutinised for answers to these two most pertinent questions, all their verbiage have one common thrust: to avoid answering them.
