Saudara,

Pertama sekali abang Perdana Menteri kita ia itu Ibrahim bin Badawi
menerusi syarikatnya SkyChef menjadi supplier makanan kepada syarikat
penerbangan MAS yang sekarang mengalami kerugian RM900 juta untuk
sembilan
bulan pertama 2005. Abang PM kita jual sebotol air mineral kepada MAS
dengan harga RM30 setiap botol. Kenapa kita hairan MAS rugi ?

Menteri Besar terengganu Idris Jusoh telah mengadakan lumba kapal layar
Monsoon Cup yang menelan duit rakyat sebanyak RM300.0 Juta.

Duit ini di bayar kepada seorang taukeh bernama Patrick Lim dan
kekawannya
termasuk Khairy Jamaludin menantu Perdana Menteri. Perlumbaan kapal
layar
tak sampai lima hari makan duit rakyat RM300.0 Juta. Sudah tentu duit
RM300.0 Juta itu ditelan oleh orang yang sungguh bertuah dapat kontrak
RM300.0 Juta itu.

Untuk menutup kehilangan duit sebesar ini sekarang sabsidi minyak di
potong
dan harga minyak nail 30 sen satu liter.

Telekom Malaysia pula rugi lebih RM700 Juta duit rakyat sebab terpaksa
bayar ganti rugi kepada syarikat telekom German ia itu Deutsche Telekom.
Terpaksa bayar ganti rugi RM700 Juta sebab Telekom Malaysia tak tahu
buat
kontrak.

Nak tutup rugi ini pula kerajaan potong sabsidi minyak.

Sekarang lebih murah naik kapalterbang Air Asia pergi balik dari Kuala
Lumpur ke Kuala Terengganu. Tambang pergi balik Air Asia dari Kuala
Lumpur
ke Kuala Terengganu tak sampai RM300 bagi tiga orang sekeluarga.

Air Asia diurus oleh orang yang tidak rasuah dan yang tahu buat bisnes
tanpa menyusahkan rakyat.

Sekarang dengan harga minyak yang sudah naik, belanja minyak sahaja nak
pergi balik dari Kuala Lumpur ke Alor Setar sudah naik hingga RM220
(kereta
Proton Waja). Bayar tol pula lebih RM120. Belanja makan dan minum (nasi
campur dan teh kosong) bagi sekeluarga enam orang tambah lagi RM40. Ini
bermaksud jumlah belanja minyak, tol dan makan minum pergi balik dari
Kuala
Lumpur ke Alor Setar hampir RM400.

Negeri lain bukan macam negara kita. Walaupun harga minyak di Thailand
lebih mahal daripada harga minyak di Malaysia tapi di Thailand tak ada
bayar tol.

Dari Bukit Kayu Hitam ke Bangkok jauhnya lebih 1,100 batu (bukan
kilometer)
naik lebuhraya enam lorong tanpa bayar TOL (bukan empat lorong macam
Lebuhraya Utara Selatan kita).

Di Thailand tak ada rasuah AP. Harga kereta Honda Civic 1.6 di Thailand
tak
sampai RM40,000. Lebih murah daripada harga kereta Perodua Kelisa 1.0 di
Malaysia. Inilah kelebihannya di Thailand- tak ada AP di sana.

Di Malaysia pula ada AP. Sebenarnya harga AP yang perlu di bayar kepada
Kerajaan (MITI) tak sampai RM250 sahaja. Tapi AP boleh di jual sehingga
RM40,000 sekeping kepada Dato Dato yang kaya yang di kenal sebagai "AP
King". Rasuah AP ini telah berlanjutan selama lebih 30 tahun. Akhir
kata
rakyat Malaysia yang terpaksa tanggung rasuah AP ini.

Oleh yang demikian kereta Honda Civic 1.6 yang dijual dengan harga
RM40,000
di Thailand naik harga sehingga RM110,000 di Malaysia. Rakyat Malaysia
rugi. Kerajaan pun hilang wang. Bila kerajaan tak cukup wang - maka
potonglah subsidi minyak. Maka naik lah harga minyak 30 sen satu liter.

Malaysia Boleh!!!!

Sekian. Salam.
* Tolong hantarkan informasi ini kepada kawan kawan yang anda
kenali.Adakah
kita harus menjadi mangsa dalam
kejadian sedemikian?Orang lain hutang duit,kita sebagai rakyat Malaysia
pula kena membayar ? Yang penting sekali,
bukan setakat bayar sahaja,manakala nak bayar sampai bila ? Adakah ini
akan
berhenti ?............

[rollakid]

just a few people can ruin the whole country, like a fly drop into a big bowl of shark fin soup, whole bowl useless liau.. no mood eat.

MAS should hire ceo of air asia, let him manage everything. then change MAS into AirAsia-Luxury. damn i seriously think if they really hire a non corrupted CEO for MAS the tax generated from their flight with current ticket pricing could let the government subsidize our fuel back to RM1.50

either that or we could look for a modern day Robin Hood.

Taken from Lim Kit Siang's address to parliament. Food for thought.


Parliament, Wednesday): I want to register my shock and outrage at the speeches of the proposer and the seconder of the Motion of Thanks for the Royal Address, the MP for Kuala Pilah Datuk Hassan Malek, the MP for Kelana Jaya, Loh Seng Kok, and other Barisan Nasional MPs who had intervened on the subject of the 30-sen price hikes for petrol, diesel and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).

The total omission about the recent hike in fuel prices in the Royal Address on Monday was very glaring, reflecting a government which is getting increasingly out of touch with the foremost concerns of the ordinary people.

The assurance later on Monday by the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi that BN MPs were free to debate the government’s controversial decision to hike the increase in fuel prices and could say “whatever they want” had been some consolation that BN MPs are not prohibited from articulating the opposition and protests of the people to the fuel hikes, although a clampdown on public protest and opposition to the hike has been imposed on the mainstream media – the first and most ominous press censorship in the Abdullah premiership.

It would appear from yesterday’s proceeding that the freedom for Barisan Nasional MPs to speak in Parliament on the hike in fuel prices was not to convey the people’s opposition and protest but only limited to support and praise for the fuel hikes regardless of the hardships to the people.

Yesterday, Hassan ended his marathon speech of more than four hours on the fuel price hike while Loh Seng Kok started on the subject. Like the other Barisan Nasional MPs who intervened on the subject, they are united by one common thread - to support and praise the government for being so thoughtful and caring for the welfare of the people in the decision to hike fuel prices of petrol, diesel and LPG by 30 sen with the MP for Pasir Puteh Datuk Che Min Che Ahmad even suggesting that the fuel price increase was not enough and should have been by 40 sen a litrte!

They concentrated their fire on Malaysians who are unappreciative and ungrateful for what the government had done, using terms like anti-national, profiteers and even “shaitan” as well as making accusations of “not loving the country” – refusing to understand why the majority of Malaysians, regardless of race, religion, territory, gender or age, are outraged by the heftiest increase in fuel prices on Feb. 28, the sixth time fuel prices had increased in the past two years. The previous occasions were May and October 2004, March, May and July 2005, resulting in a 40 per cent increase for petrol and 102 per cent increase for diesel in the past 21 months.

But they came across as smug, conceited, hypocritical humbugs when they lectured the people about the need to be weaned from the subsidy mentality – when they are not prepared to set an example of eradicating such a subsidy mindset in the first place.

This is because Barisan Nasional MPs are subsidy MPs in a subsidy generation. They get an annual RM500,000 constituency development allocations which are denied to Opposition MPs to subsidise their parliamentary positions at public expense.

They were elected through the grand subsidy of the politics of money, running into hundreds of millions and even billions of ringgit, totally against the principles of free, fair and clean elections.

Last week, Election Commission Chairman Tan Sri Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman made the shocking revelation that that RM110 million had been spent on posters in the 2004 general election while RM3.5 million was spent on posters in the Pengkalan Pasir by-election – blatantly flouting election laws limiting election expenditures to prevent electoral abuses and corruption.as well as casting grave doubts on the legitimacy and legality of the landslide victory of Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and the Barisan Nasional in the March 2004 general election.

When lecturing Malaysians about the need to remove the subsidy mentality, are the Barisan Nasional MPs prepared to set an example by ending their own “subsidy” mindsets?

Have Barisan Nasional MPs spoken up against the most pernicious subsidy mentality crippling Malaysia’s economic growth, productivity and competitiveness – the scourge of corruption? In my decades in Parliament, I have not heard any Barisan Nasional MP standing up to call for an all-out war against corruption to promote a new culture of political integrity with zero tolerance for corruption.

The New Economic Policy has degenerated into a subsidy policy and programme, benefiting a handful of UMNOputras at the expense of the many bumiputras. Are BN MPs prepared to speak up for the dismantling of such NEP subsidy syndrome so that they are not guilty of “cakap ta serupa bikin” when praising the government for reducing various subsidy programmes adversely affecting the rakyat?

The people are angry and outraged by the latest oil hikes, not so much because there had to be an increase, but by the timing, manner and amount of the increase, and most important of all, by the loss of moral authority and legitimacy of the government to call on the people to make “lifestyle change” and “sacrifices” because of its failure to deliver a clean, incorruptible, transparent and efficient public service.

Rocketing world oil prices are a boon not only to the government in terms of higher oil revenues but also for the coffers of Petronas. Malaysians are not convinced why they should not benefit from the nation being a net oil exporter and why there should not be greater accountability, transparency and parliamentary scrutiny in the disbursement of Petronas funds from its vast profits, especially when there had been extravagant and profligate expenditures in the past which had not been properly accounted to the people.

No Barisan Nasional MP who had intervened in the debate yesterday had demanded for greater accountability and transparency from Petronas.

Petronas is likely to post some RM100 billion profits for the past three years, but is it prepared to be subject to parliamentary and public scrutiny for its management and trusteeship of the national “black gold” resources? Petronas posted RM23.66 billion profits for 2004, RM35.56 billion profits for 2005, and is poised to post record-high profits for the financial year ended March 31, 2006 because of spiraling oil prices.

In the past 31 years, it had made profits of RM500 billion – or is it RM800 billion? The inability to arrive at a correct figure is an indication of the lack of accountability and transparency of Petronas.

Petronas was ranked last in the latest survey of the ‘World’s Most Sustainable and Ethical Companies’ conducted among 15 major oil companies by a Spanish-based ethics rating firm.

The annual survey, inaugurated three years ago by Management & Excellence (M&E), evaluates and compares the compliance of each company with over 280 internationally recognised standards in transparency, corporate governance, social responsibility and ethics.

This ranking, released last month, had Shell at the top for the third year running, followed by British Petroleum (BP) and Brazil’s Petrobras shooting into third spot.

Petronas, which was included for the first time, obtained the lowest score at 20.15 percent.

“No oil company studied was as transparent as Shell, publishing 13 separate reports on topics ranging from environmental impact to animal testing,” said M&E.

“Caught in a scandal two years ago for misrepresenting its oil reserves, Shell now publishes a 40-page report on how its reserves calculations comply with international guidelines.”

Are Barisan Nasional MPs prepared to call for greater accountability, transparency and good corporate governance on the part of Petronas, so that the question uppermost in the minds of MPs and more and more Malaysians, “Where have Petronas’ RM500 billion or RM800 billion profits for the past 31 years gone to”, could get a satisfactory answer?

Without accountability and transparency, the record of the use of the Petronas’ hundreds of billions of ringgit to bail out mega-financial scandals like the repeated Bank Bumiputra rescues, Malaysian International Shipping Corporation and Renong, and to fund mega-projects like Formula 1 Circuit, Petronas, F1 Petronas Sauber team, Dayabumi, Twin Towers, Proton and Proton City –the most spectacular examples of a subsidy culture and mentality – is it any wonder that the people are not convinced by the government’s case for the hefty hike in fuel prices?

Are Barisan Nasional MPs sympathetic with the plight of the consumers and workers as a result of the vicious spiral of inflation caused by the hefty hike of fuel prices and are they supportive of the Malaysian Trade Unions Congress’ call for a RM150 COLA for workers in the private sector and a minimum wage of RM900?

Are the BN MPs speaking in this debate representing the people or representing the government against the people?
