Holiday for GE 14

Holidays for GE 14                                                                           11.4.2018

I still think we should grant half day leave on 8.5.2018 to those team members travelling back to hometowns too cart their voters            

1. This is the most important election.

2. Better voter turnout means better chance for CHANGE.

3. Election is once in 5 years and not often on weekdays.

4. As employer, it is within our power to encourage staff to vote.

5. We set limit: more than 3 hours journey. That will exclude BP, Segamat n PD.

6. At the end, not many staff get this benefit.  Loss of productivity for few staff over period of 5 or 10 years is something we can afford.

7. I am hoping that when this is announced, it will have good impact on Melaka voters
    - that partners view voting rights very seriously;
    - those who think 1 vote makes no difference may make an effort to vote.

If there is no tsunami this time, we may not see any tsunami during our life time. Sorry, I am speaking for senior partners.  Juniors may still have a chance. Future is hard to predict.

Wish List on formation of new Malaysian government

Wish List on formation of new Malaysian government                                               10.5.2018

Now that our new Prime Minister has sworn in, here is my wish list for a new Malaysia:

1. No katak is allowed to jump ship. No attempt to lure any ADUN to cross over. Let the state governments with slim majority govern with strong opposition party until the next election.

2. The Chairman and top leaders of the Election Commission must go. Charge them in court if they have committed any offence under the Election Act. Redo the redelineation exercise to make sure that the number of voters in the constituencies are approximately equal.

3. The Chief Justice and President of the Court of Appeal, whose extension of tenure and reappointment to their respective offices are said to be unconstitutional by the Malaysian Bar, must also go. Judges should be allowed to act independently and decide cases based on merits. There should not be any "arahan dari atas".

4. The Attorney General, who cleared Najib of any wrongdoing in the 1MDB scandal despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, must resign or be sacked.

5. Civil servants must be left to do their job professionally without interference from politicians, especially from the Prime Minister's Office.

6. Reopen files on Teoh Beng Hock, Anwar Ibrahim,  Altantuya, 1MDB and others if there is proof of relevant evidence being suppressed at trial or inquiry or new evidence discovered. Though the new Prime Minister has said that the new government
will not seek revenge, criminals of serious offences cannot be left off the hook.

7. MCA, MIC and Gerakan are dissolved and new multi-racial parties are formed to take care of interest and needs of all Malaysians. (I have a suggestion for the name, PITAM (Party Insaf Tanah Malaysia)). We do not need Chinese ministers to take care of Chinese; Indian ministers to take care of Indians; Sabah and Sarawak ministers to take care of Sabahans and Sarawakians. Instead all ministers must take care of all Malaysians.

8. Revamp our education system. This is very very urgent.

9. Implement need or merits based, not race based policies.

A lot to wish for! Well, if Pakatan Harapan government does not perform, we choose new government in GE 15. Hopefully by then there are new parties or coalitions, not only Barisan National, for us to choose from.

GE 14 投废票

致要投废票的朋友                                                                                                   8.5.2018

1。 2008 308 你加入了改朝换代大军,兴奋的摇旗呐喊: 舞吧, Ubah! 有激情,没把握。结果出乎预料,国阵输掉三分二多数议席及五州政权。两线制成型,你看到了曙光。

2。2013 505 你受到 Ini Kali Lah 的感召,以为改朝换代就在明天。结果有一群人不动于山,功亏一篑。滿腔热血,换来的是: Apa lagi lu mau!

3。2018 509 你还是想改朝換代,却执着于敦马的过去,拒绝接受现实,唯敦马有能力改朝换代。

4。国家病入膏肓,有个老医生来治,你却耿耿于老医生的过去,宁可放棄变天的梦想?宁可选择投废票,成为那不动于山的一群,结果就是帮助维持现状。老医生都说了,要清算我,改朝后才来。

5。 509,选政府,试一试,换一次。

6。不必等了,就是明天。这是最好的机会,可能不再有了。不必计较是谁促成,一次就好,不行的话,五年后再換。换政府成常态,往后就容易多了。

7。如果你还坚持要投废票,唉,只能说:尊重你的选择。

By casting spoilt vote, you may think that you are not supporting any party/coalition. However by helping to keep the status quo, effectively, you are supporting the incumbent!

怪论时常有,现今特别多

怪论时常有,现今特别多                                               5.5.2018

1. 知名作家说,选区划分制造超级华人区、超级马来区,推动这种划分法的背后,是大马选民。

人说鬼话,嚇死我了。

选区划分不公,不就因为杰利蠑螈,与我们选民如何投票何干。

2. 坐政府第二把交椅人物说,大选落在星期三,在新加坡工作的选民,如申请不到假期,就不必回来投票。

从小每到选举,电台及电视台必播:

Marilah mari
Pergi mengundi
Jangan lupakan kewajipan
Warganegara.

投票是权利,也是责任。电台电视播一套,高官说一套, 这司马昭之心,我们选民皆知。

3. 一毛哥问,1MDB 课题讲MO1吃了人民26亿,看看你的户口,有少一毛钱吗?你公司户口有少10塊钱吗?有吗!

谢谢提醒,我查了, 户口里的钱没少,因为我看得紧。

公寓养牛、东西买贵了,我户口里也没少一毛钱。

但要填补国库虚空,汽油、白糖及面粉津贴少了,买东西要还GST。货品价钱贵了,我又查了,是用户口里的钱还的。

头壳坏了,赵紧去看医生。

4. 某官员以上届大选的条例不适用于本届大选,进而否决某候选人(被判罰款RM2,000)的竞选资格。

拜托,即是行政人员,又兼做法官。留下一些职位给其他人,可以吗?每个人都需要工作、赚钱、养家。钱不会从天而降,虽然谣传到处有人派钱。

5. 最高龄候选人说,他乘坐的飞机故障,是遭人破坏。

没找到证据,先不要做出指控。在此非常时期,天秤阵线衮衮诸公都在求神拜佛,祈求投票日前,最高龄候选人不要有所闪失,以免影响投票情绪。保庇保庇!
