SPRM : Saya Peminat Ringgit Malaysia, Saya Pun Rasuah Mah

Harapkan Pagar, Pagar pula makan padi beginilah keadaan di Malaysia kini. Jabatan- jabatan penguatkuasa undang-undang bukan sahaja semakin berani memukul arus perubahan kehendak rakyat malah mereka sanggup menggadaikan Intergriti Negara.

Kita harap polis jaga keamanan Negara , tapi mereka pukul suspek sampai mati. Kita harapan Jabatan Penjara pulihan penjenayah tapi mereka dilatih menjadi mahir. Kita harapankan Suruhan Jaya Pencegah Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) , tapi mereka kejar kes kecil-kecilan.

Ratusan Billion ringgit tidak ada sebarang tindakan,sebaliknya hanya -hanya kes rasuah beberapa ringgit dibawa ke muka pengadilan. Mungkinkan sebabnya kerana yang patut mengawal Korupsi itu sendiri Korup.

Tapi tiba-tiba Ketua Pengarah Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia mahu mengundur diri dengan melantik timbalannya sebagai penganti, kenapa? Mungkinkah dia sendiri menyalah gunakan kuasanya?

Saya difahamkan bahawa :

a. Kementerian kewangan tidak membenarkan pemberian Kontrak dengan secara Rundingan Terus atau Direct Negotiation. Kelonggaran hanya diberi dalam keadaan berikut :

i. Peralatan yang hendak dibeli hanya dibuat oleh syarikat/pengeluar/pembuatberkenaan dan tidak boleh diperolehi di pasaran terbuka “open market” atau “off shelf”

ii. Peralatan yang hendak dibeli dibuat oleh syarikat/pengeluar/pembuat kepada spesifikasi kerajaan yang khusus atau “specific requirement” mengikut keperluaan pengguna

iii. Keperluaan kerahsiaan peralatan tersebut seperti alat komunikasi pasukan elite yang menggunakan frekuensi khas agar tidak berlaku ‘tapping’ atau ‘jamming’

iv. Lain-lainkeadaan yang mengambil kira keperluan kerajaan.

b. Pakaian Seragam Angkatan Tentera Malaysia, Kastam DiRaja Malaysia, Immigresen , BOMBO, JPA, Maritim Malaysia, RELA dan lain-lain diperolehi secara Tender terbuka dan Sebutharga terbuka bagi setiap jenis peralatan yang melengkapkan pakaian seragam.

Tidak pernah sehingga kini kita ketahui Badan-Badan beruniform di Malaysia member Kontrak perolehan Keseluruhan peralatan Pakaian Seragam kepada SATU SYARIKAT SECARA ‘HEAD to TOE’. Ini adalah kerana tidak ada satu syarikat di Malaysia yang membuat atau mengeluarkan semua jenis peralatan seragam dan kebanyakan peralatan tersebut boleh diperolehi dari berbagai sumber dan ada yang ‘of the Shelf’

Ketua Pesuruhjaya Suruhanjaya Pencegah Rasuah Malaysia telah memberikan Kontrak yang dianggarkan bernilai RM 7.5 juta ringgit melalui rundingan terus serta meluluskan pembelian HEAD TO TOE kepada hanya satu syarikat iaitu Syarikat Mariwasa Kraftangan Sdn Bhd yang beroperasi di Kuala Kangsar, Perak. Mariwasa Kraftangan Sdn Bhd adalah pengeluar barangan logam seperti Pewter, Tembaga, Perak dan Emas dan adalah pembuat barangan seerti cenderahati , pingat-pingat dan keperluaan peralatan pakaian seragam yang hanya dibuat dari logam seperti pip, crown, star, collor dot dan lain-lain.

Mariwasa Kraftangan telah memperolehi kontrak pembekalan HEAD TO TOE walaupun mereka tidak mengeluarkan peralatan-peralatan seperti berikut :
a. Topi Peak Lelaki
b. Bawler Hat Wanita
c. Songkok
d. Baju/seluar Istiadat
e. Baju/seluar Mess Kit
f. Baju/Seluar Bush Jacket
g. Baju/Seluar Kerja
h. Tali pinggang Kulit
i. Stokin
j. Tudung
k. Pelbagai jenis kasut
l. Handbag Wanita
m. Tali leher
n. Aggauletter
o. Serta Lain-lain Jenis Pakaian.

Juga di fahamkan Mariwasa Kraftangan telah menggunakan beberapa syarikat lain bagi mendapatkan keperluan-keperluan ini di mana diantaranya adalah bukan pembuat/pengeluar tetapi adalah hanya orang tengah . Diantara syarikat-syarikat yang digunakan adalah seperti BENA YAKIN ENTERPRISE. Diantara barangan yang diperolehi dari syarikat ini adalah seperti:

a. Topi Peak Lelaki
b. Bawler Hat wanita
c. Songkok
d. Berbagai Jenis Kasut
e. Barangan Sulama
f. Aggaulette

Bena Yakin Enterprise adalah sebuah Perniagaan jenis Enterprise dengan hanya nilai modal RM2.00, tetapi memperolehi tempahan bernilai hampir Sejuta Ringgit. Yang lebih menghairankan ialah Mariwasa Kraftangan , pembuat barangan logam juga diberi kontrak JAHITAN PAKAIAN. Syarikat yang menjahit iaitu MAROZ TAILOR berpusat di Kuala Lumpur adalah bertaraf ‘High Class’.
Bagi Peralatan seperti Kasut dan tali Pinggang Kulit , Kementerian Kewangan “Treasury” menghendaki bekalan diperolehi dengan syarikat yang ada ‘Central Contract’ dan bukannya diberi kepada pembuat barangan logam yang kemudiannya perolehi daripada sebuah lagi Perniagaan Enterprise.

Kini, tiba masanya Perdana Menteri menjelaskan kepada Rakyat Malaysia kenapa Ketua Pesuruhjaya SPRM ingin berundur serta :

a) Apakah Dasar sebenar Kementerian Kewangan mengenai perolehan Rundingan terus

b) Mengapakah kesemua perolehan oleh SPRM atau BPR sebelum ini tidak dibuat secara tender atau Sebutharga?

c) Apakan hubugan Isitimewa Mariwasa Kraftangan dengan Ketua Pesuruhjaya MACC /BPR

d) Bagaimankan Kementerian boleh meluluskan perolehan Rundingan Terus terutamanya ‘Head to Toe’ kepada satu syarikat .

Saya juga meminta Perdana Menteri agar dekelasifikasikan Perjanjian atau Kontrak-kontrak pembelian segala peralatan melibatkan Ketua Pesuruhjaya SPRM tersebut semasa beliau berada di BPR/SPRM.

Pihak Kerajaan juga tidak seharusnya melindungi Kakitangan Kerajaan terutamanya mereka yang berpangkat Tinggi yang didapati mengugat Integriti Negara. Sudah tiba masa Suruhanjaya Pencegah Rasuah Malaysia diletakkan dibawah pengawasan Parlimen.

Saya juga akan mencadangkan bahawa suatu Jawatankuasa Khas Parlimen ditubuhkan untuk menyiasat tuduhan –tuduhan rasuah/pecah amanah yang melibatkan pegawai-pegawai tertinggi Kerajaan Malaysia.

GIATMARA bayar gula sekilo RM170!!!

An excerpt taken from The Malaysian Insider

 

The Treasury said in its explanation to the Auditor-General’s findings made public yesterday that the Giatmara centre had mistakenly paid RM170 per kg instead of RM1.70 per kg for sugar for a poverty eradication programme last year.
The reply, found in the 2010 audit report, said that “the mistake was not detected … resulting in overpayment of RM25,245.”

It added that after Giatmara sent written requests to JD Works Enterprise to reclaim the surplus payment, the supplier “agreed to return the difference by instalments.”

JD Works Enterprise paid RM1,000 a month from July to September 2011, leaving a balance of RM22,245.

Mara management then ordered Giatmara chairman Datuk Shahiruddin Ab Moin to investigate the matter on September 23, 2011. Read more here

Ketirisan amat parah di Kementah

Filed under: 1Malaysia,Barisan Nasional — Pengayau @ 8:50 am
Tags: , ,

Taken from Free Malaysia Today

Bagaimana anda rasa sebagai pembayar cukai jika seseorang memberitahu anda bahawa Kementerian Pertahanan (Kementah) membayar sebanyak RM7.55 bilion untuk membeli kereta perisai yang harga sebenar hanya seperempat dari jumlah itu?

Jika anda benar-benar tahu berapa nilai RM7.55 bilion (atau RM7,550 juta) itu, anda mungkin terperanjat dan sukar untuk mempercayai dan memekik: “Adakah kerajaan kita begitu teruk? Adakah mereka begitu berani?

Jawapannya ialah ia; dan tirai drama mula dibuka di parlimen kita, tidak seperti di setengah-setengah laman web yang membuat dakwaan yang tidak berasas.

Ahli Parlimen Petaling Jaya Utara Tony Pua menyoal Menteri Pertahanan Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi kenapa Kementah membayar harga yang sangat mahal, sebanyak RM7.8 bilion untuk 257 buah kereta perisai.

Zahid menjawab bahawa kementeriannya tidak tahu bahawa harganya RM7.8 bilion seperti mana yang didakwa oleh Pua dan harga kontrak muktamad ialah RM7.55 bilion.

Beliau juga menyatakan bahawa beliau tidak tahu menahu tentang urusniaga yang membolehkan pembekal mendapatkan kenderaan- kenderaan tersebut dari Turki pada harga seperempat dari harga yang dibayar oleh Kementah.

Namun penafian Zahid itu akhirnya terbongkar apabila Pua mendedahkan bahawa Zahid sendiri menyaksikan majlis menandatangani perjanjian urusniaga itu di Ankara, Turki pada bulan Februari lalu.

Perjanjian itu ditandatangani di antara syarikat pembekal Malaysia, Deftech dan pengeluar kenderaan pertahanan Turki FNSS, syarikat usahasama di antara BAE Systems Inc. dari United Kingdom dan Nurol Holding dari Turki.

Perjanjian ini dilaporkan dalam satu kenyataan akhbar bertarikh 3 Jun 2011 di laman web BAE System Inc. melibatkan kontrak bernilai USD559 juta yang diberi kepada FNSS untuk “merekabentuk, membangun dan mengeluarkan” sebanyak 257 DEFTECH AV-8 8X8 kereta perisai beroda dan Sokongan Logistik Berintergrasi untuk Angkatan Tentera Malaysia.

Kenderaan-kenderaan tentera yang diberi nama ‘DEFTECH’, sebenarnya direkabentuk oleh FNSS PARS 8X8, kenderaan serbaguna, pelbagai misi, kenderaan beroda lengkap dengan peralatan senjata.
Harga melambong

Ini bermakna Kerajaan Malaysia membayar Deftech sebanyak RM7.55 bilion (RM29.4 juta untuk sebuah), yang kemudian membayar FNSS sebanyak RM1.7 bilion untuk 257 buah kereta perisai itu (RM6.6 bilion sebuah).

Jika anda seorang pembayar cukai yang marah dengan ‘rompakan di siang hari’ melibatkan RM6 bilion dari dana awam, tunggu dulu sehingga anda mendengar harganya di pasaran, yang jauh lebih rendah dari yang ditawarkan oleh FNSS.
Pua dalam satu kenyataannya bertarikh 9 Mac 2011, dalam blognya melaporkan bahawa harga-harga berikut untuk kereta perisai yang setanding yang ditawar dan diurusniagakan dalam pasaran.

0 Pasukan tentera Portugal membayar RM4.4 juta sebuah untuk kereta perisai Pandur II 8X8 (EUR364 juta untuk 353 buah)

0 Model terbaru Pirahan III 8X8 kereta perisai beroda yang dikeluarkanoleh Swiss MOWAG GmBH bernilai RM3.9 juta (USD1.2 juta) untuk tiap-tiap sebuah.
Dengan harga-harga ini sebagai rujukan, adalah wajar untuk kita mengharapkan supaya Kementah membuat tawaran tender terbuka dan mencapai keputusan muktamad.

Kita boleh mengurangkan harga tidak melebihi RM4.5 juta dari RM30 juta untuk sebuah kenderaan pada ketika ini dan mengurangkan nilai kontrak kepada RM1.15 bilion dari RM7.55 bilion.

Ini bermakna kerajaan Barisan Nasional telah melambongkan harganya sebanyak enam hingga tujuh kali ganda mengikut dasar pembelian peralatan pertahanan yang sama sekali tidak bersifat telus dan bertanggungjawab.
Jumlah yang sebegitu tinggi amat memeranjatkan yang mungkin tidak pernah kita dengar walaupun dalam sebuah negara yang paling korup di dunia sekali pun.

Perbelanjaan yang menggila

Urusniaga ini adalah salah satu dari kes bagaimana Kementah membelanjakan wang berbilion ringgit untuk membeli bot peronda dan helikopter dengan harga yang begitu tinggi.

Sebagai contoh, Kementah membeli enam buah kapal peronda luar pantaidari Boustead Naval Shipyard Sdn Bhd pada harga sebuah RM1 bilion (jumlah RM6 bilion).

Harga yang dibayar ini adalah lima kali ganda dari apa yang dibayar oleh Royal New Zealand Navy untuk pembelian OPV, diperolehi pada harga hanya RM210 juta sebuah (NZ$90 juta) dari syarikat kedua terbesar di dunia, BAE Systems.
Begitu juga dengan pembelian helikopter jenis Eurocopter EC725 pada harga RM190 juta setiap sebuah (RM2.3 bilion untuk 12 buah) manakala Brazil membeli helikopter jenis yang sama pada harga hanya RM82 juta sebuah.
Melihat kepada tiga kontrak ini sahaja – kereta perisai, kapal peronda dan helikopter – menyaksikan ketirisan sebanyak RM12 bilion ekoran transaksi Kementah ini.

Dengan wang sebanyak ini, kita boleh membina rumah kos rendah untuk 250,000 keluarga, menyediakan kemudahan perumahan kepada sejuta rakyat yang tidak mampu.

Dasar pembelian pihak pertahanan melibatkan rasuah yang begitu bermaharajalela sememangnya diketahui ramai di kalangan para pegawai dan eksekutif pertahanan antarabangsa seperti mana yang didedahkan oleh Wikileaks.

Wikileaks mendedahkan kabel dari Kedutaan Amerika Syarikat tentang rakaman perbualan di antara saudara mara dan rakan-rakan ahli-ahli politik ketika pemerintahan Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi selaku perdana menteri dan Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak sebagai timbalannya pada sekitar tahun 2004 hingga 2009.

Di samping mendedahkan jenis rasuah secara spesifik, kabel Amerika itu juga mendedahkan bahawa rasuah menjadi sumber pendapatan utama sebagai dana politik bagi mengekalkan kuasa pihak pemerintah.

Melihat dari perspektif yang lebih besar, ketirisan akibat tiga kontrak ini merupakan sebahagian kecil sahaha dari ketirisan-ketirisan yang berlaku dalam sistem pembelian kerajaan Barisan Nasional, sebagaimana didedahkan oleh Laporan Ketua Audit Negara 2010.

Laporan-laporan tahunan seperti ini, yang mendedahkan amalan rasuah dan salah guna pengurusan (hingga ada yang sukar dipercayai) sering menjadi peringatan bahawa kita terperangkap dengan sistem tadbir urus yang buruk dan akibatnya akan terus menerus mengeringkan sumber dana negara.

Tetapi jika kita menyedari bahawa Laporan Ketua Audit itu adalah sebahagian kecil dari ketirisan yang berlaku setiap tahun, kerana ianya meliputi laporan sebahagian kecil sahaja dari jumlah ratusan jabatan-jabatan kerajaan yang ada maka tentu kita amat bimbang dengan keadaan ini.

Dan adakah perubahan terhadap institusi-institusi telah dan akan berlaku di bawah pimpinan politik sekarang?

Onn Mahmud and Australia’s Most Expensive Penthouse!

Stolen from Sarawak Report 

A breath-taking duplex penthouse with spectacular views in a top Sydney location.  The press leaped on the story when this apartment sold for a record Aus$20 million in 2008.  But who was the ‘undisclosed prominent businessman’ who had been able to afford Australia’s most expensive flat and who had sold it?  What we can be certain of is that the deal involved a certain ‘prominent’ family from Sarawak, more particularly Onn Mahmud, the brother of the Chief Minister.

Australia’s most expensive flat, who could find the money to pay $20 million on one appartment?

We know that Onn was involved in the development or purchase of what is known as Ten Wylde Street, located in the prime Sydney harbour location Potts Point,  because of the evidence that was brought out in a court case some months before the story broke.  Onn was being sued for millions of dollars by a consultant who included in the bill his fees for the “development and management” of Ten Wylde Street.

Spectacular and expensive – can the Taibs outbid the rest of Australia to gain Sydney’s most expensive flat?

The court case and resulting publicity came at a very difficult moment for Onn, because attention was at the same time being drawn to his vast and unaccountable wealth by the Japanese newspapers, who were following up a prosecution by their own tax authorities against local shipping cartels.  In 2007 the story was coming out that shipping companies had been paying un-declared timber kickbacks to a mystery company in Hong Kong that was plainly linked to Onn Mahmud.

Trendy, modern glass. A total of 530 square meters in prime downtown Sydney.

Onn has a base in Sydney and had developed a number of business interests in the name of Kesuma Holdings, a company involving himself and his wife, son and daughter, however this was to shortly close down in 2009.

Quite astonishing luxury – the product of timber corruption?

When this property was brought onto the market it was marketed expensively on the internet and sold off-plan.  In fact the development was part of a refurbishment of an existing rather more old-fashioned, brick serviced-apartments building and the work is still in progress.  Just a few days ago the enterprise hit the news again when newspapers reported that the original sale deal had quietly fallen through and the original developers have moved on, selling the entire project for just about same price that this one flat was originally supposedly bought for – around $17.5- 20 million.  Did somebody have more money than sense during the property boom?

This is all off-plan imaging! A dream that is losing someone a lot of money…

Sarawak Report’s on the ground reporters in Sydney have told us that Ten Wylde Street is still very much an on-going development.  The website that advertised these glossy pictures at the time of the Aus $20 million dollar deal has now been closed down.

Needless to say, Onn Mahmud’s name has never been publicly associated with the project.  Leaving some to question whether he was the developer of the whole building project or just the mystery buyer?

What Onn Mahmud failed to deny however, when this whole matter came to court in mid-2007 and 2008, was that there had been work done on his behalf regarding the “development and management” of Ten Wylde Street, Potts Point.  It has left the rest of us questioning, where did he get all that money?

BN’s Mega-Construction YB!

Taken from Sarawak Report

In a recent online interview YB Peter Nansian, an Assistant Environment Minister in Taib’s cabinet and State Assemblyman for Tasik Biru, wrote ”I went into politics to strive for the people..if you come to my area.. all the main roads and other infrastructure are already in place..I always think of how to further develop the area and its people”. 

However, what his readers and constituents might not have picked up on is just how much of such publicly-funded construction is carried out by the enthusiastic YB himself!  Indeed, after a hard day’s work in Taib Mahmud’s cabinet he must have to rush home to get on his hard hat in order to oversee the hundreds of millions of ringgit worth of public projects that his company, Juara Beetuah Sdn Bhd, has been commissioned to carry out. 

Perhaps it because of his over-loaded schedule that this minister seems to have forgotten that it is criminally corrupt for holders of public office to operate private companies that directly benefit from the awarding of contracts by their own government?

Massive contracts

Peter Nansian is clearly identified in Malaysia’s Construction Industry Development Board’s list of registered companies as a Director of Juara Beetuah, a construction company that has received numerous government contracts worth hundreds of millions of ringgit! [ http://www.cidb.gov.my/directory/local_contractor_details.php?cont_id=28898 ]     

Director of the company Juara Beetuah. Getting listed in the CIDB Directory is crucial for companies seeking government contracts.

 

Furthermore, the address and contact details for Juara Beetuah, as laid out in the CIDB website are the same as those given by YB Peter Nansian in his Wikipedia online entry.

This is where you can find me. YB Peter Nansen’s Wikipedia entry confirms he is based at ‘Champion Beetuah’, English for Juara Beetuah!

But it is the sheer scale of the public contracts that the YB has been awarded by his own BN ruling coalition that causes real astonishment.  Juara Beetuah is registered as having received a total of 10 public contracts since the year 2000 with a total worth of RM350 million !

YB Peter Nansen’s public construction projects! Total value of around RM350 million. Note that project No 9, which is a road from Oya to Balingian is worth RM256 million alone.

 Constituents, whom YB Peter Nansian has tried to assure he has been working hard to support, may care to notice that these projects do not include developments in his own area!

What construction company?

BN Blunders and Plunders

“The article also contains long,long catalogue of crimes and incompetencies,though just the tip of the iceberg according to its author,including

1.The Bank Bumiputra scandals of the early 1980s (RM3.2 Billion)

2.Maminco’s 1980s attempt to corner the global tin market (RM1.6 Billion)

3.Bank Negara losses on foreign exchange futures in the 1990s (RM30 Billion)

4.Perwaja Steel losses (RM2.56 Billion)

5.Bank Islam scandal (RM700 Million)

6.Wang Ehsan from Terengganu Oil Royalty (RM7.4 Billion)

7.Shoring up of Valuecap Sdn Bhd with public funds (RM10 Billion)

8.Commissions to Perimekar Sdn Bhd and IMT Defence Sdn Bhd on Jet fighter and Submarine deals
(RM910 Million)

9.Unitemised IT equipment purchased for Schools (RM2.21 Billion)

10.Soft loan to PKFZ (RM4.63 Billion)

11.Customs,Immigration and Quarantine complex for cancelled
crooked bridge to Singapore (RM1.3 Billion)

12.Compensation to Gerbang Perdana Sdn Bhd for cancellation of crooked bridge contract (RM300 Million)

13.Two bailouts of Malaysian Airlines (RM7.9 Billion)

14.Bailout of Putra transport system (RM4.5 Billion)

15.Bailout of STAR LRT transport system (RM3.256 Billion)

16.Bailout of Kajian Makanan dan Gunaan Orang Islam (RM8.3 Billion)

17.Compensation paid to highway companies,as announced in 2006 (RM38.5 Billion)

I make that about RM126 Billion so far,or,according to my possibly somewhat suspect arithmetic,arround $4,680 for every man,woman and child in Malaysia.But we barely started yet

The roll of dishonour compiled,goes on to the list dozens more example of blunder or plunder or both,including the RM100 Million renovation of the Parliament building,the estimated RM500 Million per year for National Service Program,the National Astronout Program,the Eye on Malaysia,Le Tour De Langkawi,massive quantities of unused electoral indelible ink and bailouts of the National Sewerage System,Port Dickson Highway and Kuching Prison Project

Also included,though impossible for us innocent bystanders to cost,are the notorious Approval Permits (AP) scandal,the wholesale distribution of tens of millions of shares in Bursa Saham Malaysia under the guise of NEP and alienation of tens of thousands of hectares of commercial lands and forestry commissions to relatives of BN leaders and ministers”

Caught on Video ! Taib Admits Vast Wealth As He Bribes Voters!

Taken from Sarawak Report

Same old boasts and same old bribes – Taib had nothing new to offer in Sibu

Taib has not only been caught out bribing voters, but also admitting to his vast wealth!  The illegal act and the confession were both captured in a video recording of an election speech that has now come into the possession of Sarawak Report.  In the recording he tells his audience:

“I’ve got more money than I can ever spend, so I don’t worry about money.  All my children now look after [my money], so I am giving you something very nice”

Later he makes a direct offer to bribe the audience of longhouse voters, who he was visiting during the Sibu by-election:

“I am prepared to give you 600 ringgit per [longhouse] door, normal thing right, no change.  People have said that’s a lot of money.  I have many friends all over the world. They are in Germany, Japan, China. We can talk, ask them to invest here.”

The Bribe

His boast about wealth

“More money than I can ever spend” -  vindication of Sarawak Report

The footage was taken while Taib was doing the rounds of the longhouses during the recent Sibu by-election, where he in fact suffered a shock defeat.  It shows the aging politician employing his tried and tested method for winning seats, without realising that time and technology has moved on.  He should have known that what you say in public these days gets recorded!  In response, Sarawak Report would like to thank him for his statements, which we regard as a vindication of our accusations over the past weeks and a full confession of his corruption.

His remarks admitting he has accumulated ”more money than I can ever spend” out of abusing his position of power in Sarawak, were recorded on cheap equipment by observers in the audience, who say that he repeated the same claims and offered the same bribe of 600 ringgit per door (longhouse family) numerous times as he visited different communities.

In so doing he has demonstrated that while he officially disguises the fact that he is the real owner of his family’s fortune by using his siblings and children as nominees, he still thinks he can get away with bragging about it in public, especially when he is trying to impress voters he wants to bribe.

However, this time he did not get away with it.  In Sibu the voters knew full well that he was trying to bribe them with their own money, having stripped them of their lands and taken the profits.   Their message to the Chief Minister after this speech in June was that if he has more money than he can ever spend why is he still seeking to stay on in office and make yet more money out of Sarawak?  This message needs to be repeated by all the voters at the State Election and the Federal Election.  The opposition coalition wants to end Taib Mahmud’s illegal plunder of the State of Sarawak!

See for yourself

Sarawak Report has produced a transcript of what the Chief Minister said in the recording, which was spoken partly in Malay and partly in English with some Iban, in a speech to a crowded longhouse.  While the audio is not good, it is perfectly possible to make out his words.Read more here

Same shit different day

 

Taken from The Malaysian Insider

KUALA LUMPUR, July 31 — Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Datuk Seri Abu Kassim Mohamed today intends to push the Najib administration members to declare their assets publicly.The Cabinet members now declare their assets to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak annually but it is not made public.

“Declaration of assets is very, very important,” Abu Kassim said at the 15th Malaysian Law Conference at the KL Convention Centre here.

The nation’s top graft fighter was responding to a suggestion from former Bar Council president Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan that the assets of politicians — particularly those in the Cabinet — and the judiciary be made publicly available for the sake of transparency.

“I agree with you… Everybody — for example, the minister or the judiciary — has to declare,” he told Ambiga.

Following the thumping Barisan Nasional (BN) took in the March 2008 general election, then-Prime Minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had directed Cabinet members to declare their assets in a bid to appease a public that was increasingly sceptical of BN’s capacity for reform.

Ministers, as well as deputy ministers, were required to fill in asset declaration forms with the MACC’s predecessor, the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA), with the intention of making the information available online for public scrutiny.

However, Abdullah backed down from this plan after facing stiff opposition from ministers, who felt that it would be an invasion of privacy for the public to know their financial worth.

Abu Kassim earlier assured Ambiga that he was willing to investigate cases involving Cabinet members impartially without any regard to their political affiliation.

“I can assure you, if there is a case… against any Cabinet member and we didn’t investigate, I’m willing to go down,” he declared, by way of assurance.

He added that he was, in fact, already investigating Cabinet members for alleged corrupt practices but stopped short of elaborating.

MACC has come under sustained fire after its January 2008 start for what detractors claim is a poor record of prosecution and ineffective fight against corruption.Read more here

Pengayau comment

Im getting sick and tired of all this Rhetorics and Polemics.There is no need for me to keep on repeating the same comment and statement  for over and over again.I let it to the readers to decide.If MACC failed to get their job done,well,just wait for the Rakyat to take  some “Serious Action” in the next General Election.Brace,brace,brace for the IMPACT!!!!

PKFZ: Ling hadapi tuduhan tipu kerajaan M’sia

Bekas menteri pengangkutan, Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik hari ini didakwa di Mahkamah Sesyen Putrajaya atas tuduhan menipu kerajaan Malaysia dengan memperdaya Jemaah Menteri berhubung pembelian tanah untuk projek ”Mega Distribution Hub” di Pelabuhan Klang.

 

 

 

Ling, 67, juga adalah bekas presiden MCA.

Taib’s Top Gig

 

Taken from Sarawak Report

 The Said Business School, Oxford University

 

Taib’s Big Moment

 As the news about Taib’s top gig in the UK started to break in the astonished host city of Oxford last week, anyone who was anyone in Sarawak was piling into planes (who paid?) to come and applaud the great moment.  If you were not invited on Taib’s big trip, then consider yourself out of the picture as far as he is concerned.

 For tickets costing £1,000 a head, according to a forest group who enquired, the audience will be entertained with an opening speech by Abdul Taib Mahmud at the University’s Said Business School’s ‘Inaugural Global Islamic Branding and Marketing Forum’ on Monday 26th July.  That’s the top slot, courtesy of the University of Oxford.

 Champions of  justice, freedom, democracy, open government, the environment and indigenous rights, all the great causes espoused by this proud university for hundreds of years, will be left to express their indignation outside. No wonder that the Said Business School is no stranger to controversy!

 Why?

 In order to find out why the school has decided to invite and indeed honour such a notorious individual, Sarawak Report delegated a journalist to make enquiries.   The answer would appear to be not unrelated to the hefty sponsorship of the event by the Tanjun Manis Food & Industrial Park, based of course in Sarawak.  Tanjun Manis began life as the ‘brainchild’ of Taib Mahmud back in the 1980s as a massive timber processing plant under the State-owned Sarawak Timber Industry Development Corporation (STIDC).  This was where the millions of logs pouring out of Sarawak could be sawn up and processed and then transported to the specially-built deep sea port for loading onto  Japanese ships.  Those ships were the ones that the Japanese Tax authorities exposed just two years back as having paid millions and millions of ringgit in kickbacks (bribes) to companies controlled by Onn Mahmud, Taib’s little brother, who has numerous business tie-ups with Taib (see previous reports on this site).

Tanjun Manis – Thousands of Hectares of ‘Pristine Land’ have been made availble for ‘Green Development’ Unfortunately for everyone, even Taib, the wood has now run out.  If Sarawak had been sustainably logged and the forests had been less greedily managed there would have course been a valuable timber trade to benefit Sarawak for future generations. So much for Taib’s self-promotion as ‘A Great CEO’.  Grab and run does not add up to great company management.  Needless to say, the Sarawak Stakeholders, the people of the country whose land the Taib’s have logged, have received very poor dividends indeed!  They have been left destitute with floods and droughts to contend with and no amenities, meagre food and rotten roads (no chance of a view of any of the Boy Racer’s Bugatti and Ferrari collection in Central Sarawak any time soon).

 So Taib’s new big idea has been to diversify from being the world’s biggest timber exporter into the world’s biggest Halal Products Hub and he has taken himself off to Oxford University to promote it.  Tanjun Manis is also laughably entitling itself as ‘Green Development’, while promoting its deep sea port as an excellent location for expanding deep sea fishery of the region’s collapsing marine life. 

Norah – keep it in the family However, as long as there is money in it the long-suffering Sarawakians will know that the Taibs will be interested.  So interested in fact that in keeping with all business ventures in Sarawak, one of the Chief Minister’s closest relatives is in charge.  First cousin Norah Binti Abdul Rahman was appointed as the Chief Executive last year, after the end of the decades-long family feud between Taib and his displaced uncle.  Norah is now being touted as the lastest prospect for Taib’s successor.  At least she is family. Perhaps no surprise that she is also the MP for Tanjun Manis as well.  In Sarawak the Taibs always like to make sure that politics and business overlap in this deeply questionable fashion.

More reports against Taib’s billions

SIBU: A “concerned citizen and taxpayer” drove all the way from Simanggang to Sibu town today to lodge a report with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) against Sarawak Chief Minister Taib Mahmud for allegedly amassing billions of ringgit worth of properties abroad.

Describing it as his “duty”, Cobbold John Lusoi said he had no choice but to come to Sibu because Simanggang had no MACC office.

“I feel it is my duty as a concerned citizen and a taxpayer to lodge a report with the MACC against the chief minister.

“I drove from Simanggan this morning because there is no MACC office in Simanggan,” Lusoi told FMT.

Lusoi’s report, which is the fourth in a series of lodged with MACC against Taib, also accussed Taib of alleged abuse of power.

On July 7 a similar report was lodged with MACC officers at Wisma Persekutuan in Miri by two members of PKR.

Similar reports were also lodge in Putrajaya in Peninsular Malaysia.

All the MACC reports against Taib were based on several articles on a news portal, The Sarawak Report, which claimed that Taib and his family owned an overseas business empire worth billions of ringgit.

His daughter Jamilah is said to head their business conglomerate in Canada, England and Australia.
