Hari Ini Dalam Sejarah: Saya Setuju Dengan Pak Lah!

Teramat jaranglah perkara ini berlaku, sehingga tergerak saya dari fokus kerja untuk merakamkannya... saya setuju dengan Pak Lah! Jangan salah sangka, ini bukan bermakna saya sekarang sudah berubah haluan, tetapi kalau musuh terkeji pun cakap betulnya kita harus sokong, apatah lagi nasihat pemimpin lama yang walaupun banyak salah, telah pun kalah dan budi lepasnya masih dikisah.

Kenyataan Pak Lah yang manakah menggerakkan saya untuk menulis perkara ini? Kenyataan yang saya petik di sini:

Abdullah bagaimanapun mengingatkan BN supaya tidak menganggap kerapuhan pakatan pembangkang ketika ini secara automatik akan menjadikan BN lebih kuat.

''Yang lebih penting saat ini ialah BN dan UMNO kena pastikan ia lebih kuat dan mampu untuk berjasa memperjuangkan program-program pembangunan untuk rakyat," katanya.

Kata beliau: ''Setakat nak kuat hanya apabila pembangkang menghadapi masalah, kekuatan itu kelak akan meleset.

''Yang penting, biarlah apa yang kita cakapkan sebelum ini hendakkan pembaharuan dapat meyakinkan rakyat bahawa BN tetap teguh dan mampu membela nasib mereka."

Saya rasa ahli politik dari planet Marikh atau mana-mana alam songsang lain sahajalah yang ada kemungkinan tidak bersetuju dengan pendapat Pak Lah di atas. Malah, kepimpinan BN kini harus waspada akan kelekaan yang mungkin mula menular di kalangan akar-umbi mahupun diri mereka sendiri apabila melihat Pakatan, terutama PKR, begitu kucar-kacir.

Kalaulah saranan untuk bermuhasabah diri ini tidak cukup, ingatlah yang tunjang kekuatan Pakatan bukannya PKR, tetapi PAS, dan parti tersebut masih utuh walau dilanda gelombang-badai dalamannya sendiri. Jangan diharap kekuatan parti PAS akan terhakis sepertimana PKR dengan terserlahnya kerakusan kuasa dan dosa liwat DS Anwar. Malah, PAS mungkin menjadi lebih kuat dengan punahnya PKR!

Akhir kata, apakah mungkin Pak Lah kini sudah bangun dari lena yang hampir menghancurkan negara di bawah tampuk kepimpinannya dahulu? Kata-kata di atas mengingatkan kita akan Pak Lah yang lama, pasca PRU-11! Apa yang berbeza dengannya dahulu dengan sekarang ya? OH YA! TINGKAT 4 DAH TAK ADA! Silap-silap, KJ pun dah lama tak bisik kat dia! Alhamdulillah....

Pakatan Perak Schizophrenic?

I have been following and occassionally commenting on the situation in Perak without having a clear description sussed out for the Pakatan leadership which used to rule the state. However, recent pronouncements by DS Nizar, the former DAP-puppet MB of the state, has me convinced that, whilst Pakatan Selangor is Incompetent and Pakatan Penang is led by Hypocrites, Pakatan Perak appears to be Schizophrenic!

Consider these points:

1. After blatantly ignoring the views of not just state BN legislators, but even BN sympathisers among community leaders when they were in power, now that the courts have decided for BN's DS Dr Zambry's state government, Nizar and co have gone back to their pre-PRU12 claims of wanting to 'work with' BN?


2. Whilst they are willing to 'work with' the Perak BN government, DS Nizar laid down 'conditions' if BN 'wants' their cooperation! Wah, as if Pakatan Perak will be doing the BN government a favour by 'working with' DS Dr Zambry's team. Why, DS Nizar wants to claim joint credit is it when BN Perak successfully runs the state? Why, Ngeh and Nga just advised Nizar that DS Dr Zambry have FDI coming into the state soon, despite Pakatan's lies is it?


3. Whilst Pakatan Perak wants to 'work with' DS Dr Zambry, DS Nizar also states that,"...but we (Pakatan Rakyat) are not conceding." So, which is it, is Pakatan happy to accept the court ruling by 'working with' BN in Perak, or are they rejecting the court ruling? The two scenarios are mutually exclusive! In the meantime, DS Nizar and an Ipoh MP from the DAP is clearly opposed to the court's position, but in doing so, may have bitten off too much to chew:



4. We saw symptoms of this Pakatan Perak schizophrenia even when they were in power. They had in the past accused BN of abuse of power and corruption, then when they were in power, timber concessions were given to Pakatan leaders in the state, even those who knew nothing about the business. So ignorant were they that they turned to BN members from the business to develop the timber concessions! Schizo!

Actually, I don't really know if being Schizo is necessarily that bad for a politician. Certainly it isn't as bad as being Incompetent or a Hypocrite. At least Pakatan Perak have a better excuse for not fulfilling their promises or for not behaving in a civilised manner... THEY"RE NUTS! But of course, in the end, it is up to the people of Perak to truly judge them for what they are...
