Sikap berdiam diri Kerajaan dan pemimpin atasan PKR beri gambaran awam kritikan Rafizi betul dan benar

Image
Setiap kali dikritik bekas timbalan presiden PKR Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli, pihak Kerajaan dan pimpinan atasan PKR yang diketuai Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim sepatutnya menjawab segala kritikan itu dengan hujah profesional, berasaskan fakta dan angka-angka yang tepat dan jelas. Menyeru Rafizi keluar parti menunjukkan satu tindakan pengecut, tanpa menjawab kandungan kritikan-kritikan berkenaan dengan jujur dan berani. Ini membawa kesimpulan sikap berdiam diri Kerajaan dan pemimpin atasan PKR memberi gambaran awam seluas-luasnya bahawa kritikan Rafizi adalah betul dan benar. Ini menguatkan lagi kepercayaan orang ramai hakikat yang menyatakan berani kerana benar dan takut kerana salah.

The courts were never built to absorb that without breaking. The problem is not that our judges cannot handle these cases. They can. The problem is too many cases fighting for too few hearing slots,” he said. “When a breadwinner is killed on the road, the family does not have the luxury of waiting three to five months for a court date.

Malaysia's first and only Chinese Prime Minister

Image
Malaysia’s first and only Chinese (Acting) Prime Minister It all started with the biggest civil war in UMNO’s history.  We’re going to be cramming down years of political turmoil into a few paragraphs here, but stick with us okay. It began in 1987, when for the first time in Dr M’s tenure as UMNO President, he was actually being challenged for UMNO’s top post during the year’s party elections. And it wasn’t just anyone giving up a fight, it was former Finance Minister Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, better known as Ku Li. It was a tough battle, with big names such as Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Hussein Onn and Abdullah Badawi siding with Ku Li’s Team B, while Mahathir had his right hand men Ghafar Baba and a young Anwar Ibrahim by his side in Team A. In the end tho, Mahathir’s Team A would win big at the UMNO elections, with Dr M winning the presidency thanks to 761 votes compared to Ku Li’s 718. Many of the top posts also went to Team A. Ku Li and co weren’t pleased with the results to say t...
