Anwar: Pakatan won’t make Ismail Sabri sweat in confidence vote Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 05:01 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Anwar: Pakatan won’t make Ismail Sabri sweat in confidence vote if he keeps focus on Malaysians, Covid-19 fight PUTRAJAYA, Aug 25 — Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim indicated that Pakatan Harapan would allow Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob an easy path through a confidence vote in Parliament if the prime minister committed to pro-Malaysian policies and managed the pandemic properly. After a meeting with Ismail Sabri this evening, Anwar said it was a promising start and platform for the Opposition to discuss with the new government on matters that needed urgent attention. Anwar said PH has agreed to help defuse the political tension if Ismail Sabri’s government focused on “pro-rakyat” programmes to help the poor and those who lost their jobs, managing the pandemic, and implementing financial assistance such as the loan repayment moratorium. “So, in order to calm down and reduce the political temperature, that was agreed but we gave this issue so that it would be the emphasis and priority of the new prime minister. “We agree that if this Covid and pro-rakyat emphasis is effective, this will not be a problem to ensure that the situation is more under control,” Anwar told the media after spending more than an hour meeting with Ismail Sabri at his office here today. Anwar, together with DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu, also said they would not make it difficult for Ismail Sabri in Parliament if the programmes were implemented and running. He also said they would do the same if Ismail Sabri’s legitimacy was put to the test in Dewan Rakyat. - More -   Perak Sultan commends mentri besar for including Opposition reps in state governance Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 12:16 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies IPOH, Aug 25 — Sultan of Perak Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah praised Umno-led Mentri Besar Datuk Saarani Mohamad today for setting a precedent by reaching out to involve assemblymen from the Opposition Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition in state governance policies. The Perak Ruler said he had decreed minimising partisan politics and Saarani’s initiative was laudable for prioritising the state’s development and social wellbeing. “During the ceremony appointing the Kota Tampan state assemblyman as the Mentri Besar of Perak, I had decreed that our government set an example in minimising political disputes. “Responding to the decree, the Right Honourable Mentri Besar when tabling the 2021 budget, announced an even allocation for all 59 members of the State Assembly, regardless of whether the members are from the opposition or the ruling party,” he said in his royal address while opening the first session of the fourth year of the 14th State Legislative Assembly at the Perak Darul Ridzuan Building here this morning. - More -   China’s regulator lays out two main conditions for companies wanting to go public Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 12:06 PM - Forum: Business, Economy and Investment - No Replies China’s cyberspace regulator lays out two main conditions for companies wanting to go public Chinese companies wanting to go public — including overseas — must comply with two aspects of regulation, the vice minister for the country’s cybersecurity regulator said Tuesday. One is the national laws and regulations, Cyberspace Administration of China vice minister Sheng Ronghua said. The other is ensuring the security of the national network, “critical information infrastructure” and personal data. BEIJING — Chinese companies wanting to go public — including overseas — must comply with two main aspects of a wider set of regulations, the vice minister for the country’s cybersecurity regulator said Tuesday. One is the national laws and regulations, Cyberspace Administration of China vice minister Sheng Ronghua said. The other is ensuring the security of the national network, “critical information infrastructure” and personal data. The comments on the importance of these two rules in particular come as policy uncertainty this summer has essentially halted Chinese listings in the U.S., after a surge in overseas offerings earlier this year. - More -   ‘Suicidal’ to appoint Azmin as DPM, says Puad Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 11:01 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: It would be “suicidal” to appoint Gombak MP Azmin Ali as the deputy prime minister (DPM), says a member of the Umno Supreme Council. Puad Zarkashi said the former Selangor menteri besar’s image was seen to be negative both in terms of morale and his performance since Perikatan Nasional (PN) became the government. “According to netizens’ comments, Azmin’s image has been negative both in terms of morale and performance since PN became the government,” he said in a Facebook post. “Appointing Azmin as DPM would be suicidal.” Puad also felt that Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob should leave the DPM’s post vacant to stop certain individuals from lobbying or fighting for it. - More -   Analysts: Deciding Cabinet lineup is Ismail Sabri’s first litmus test as PM Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 10:55 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 — Deciding on a lineup of Cabinet members who are up to the job and appeasing his political “supporters” at the same time would be the first administrative challenge for Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob as the new prime minister, political pundits said. More importantly, they said Ismail Sabri would need to navigate the demands of his own party Umno and its president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to ensure the new government remains stable with the backing of his party colleagues. The pundits also stressed that Ismail Sabri’s lineup of ministers should include experienced and tactful leaders to keep conflict at a minimum, seeing as he only has a limited amount of time to govern before an election has to be called. - More -   Ismail Sabri to present cabinet line-up at palace tomorrow Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 09:58 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR – The Yang di-Pertuan Agong will grant an audience to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob tomorrow for the latter to submit a list of candidates for cabinet positions. According to sources familiar with the matter, the wrangling and last-minute lobbying for positions under the Bera MP’s stewardship is still ongoing and is expected to last until the 11th hour. “The PM will submit his cabinet list by tomorrow and seek the Agong’s approval as part of the formalities. “Only after the king has given the green light will Ismail Sabri contact said candidates to inform them of their respective posts and to check whether they would want to take it up. “If anyone declines, there would be a back-up list for each position,” the source said. The source who spoke on the condition of anonymity said the swearing-in ceremony for the ministers would be likely on Thursday so Ismail Sabri can chair his first cabinet meeting as prime minister on Friday. - More -   PH to work on united front for GE15 Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 09:38 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan will now focus on building on the support of the 105 MPs who chose to back the PKR president Anwar Ibrahim for the post of prime minister, according to an opposition leader. Amanah communications director Khalid Samad said it was no small feat to get all 105 opposition MPs to back Anwar, adding that he believed they had the other side worried. “We now want to make sure we can build on that and have a united front in place when we face GE15,” he told FMT. “On social media, there are some people spreading rumours that Anwar got only 92 votes, that Dr Mahathir Moahamad and Warisan didn’t support him. This is obviously rubbish.” Penang deputy chief minister P Ramasamy agreed with Khalid, saying PH must move on from the failed attempt at forming the government and build on its strengths. - More -   Patriot joins calls for action over ‘damaging’ Merdeka video Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 09:36 AM - Forum: Stop Racism and Religious Bigotry - No Replies PETALING JAYA: The National Patriots Association (Patriot) has joined the call for strict and immediate action to be taken against a Muslim NGO over a controversial Merdeka-themed video, which it branded as “racist”. Patriot president Brig-Gen (Rtd) Mohamed Arshad Raji said even though the video has since been removed, it had already gone viral. “Such racist Merdeka videos destroy the past achievements by the government and the heads of states in building integrated communities of Malaysians. “Immediate and strict action must also be taken by the relevant ministries,” he said in a statement. Arshad also demanded for authorities to explain what action it would take against the producers to deter others from “damaging the fragile social landscape”. - More -   Azmin’s aide slams media reports on ‘threats’ over DPM post Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 09:28 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: An aide to Azmin Ali has refuted reports suggesting that the former senior minister may retract his support for Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob if he is not named deputy prime minister. Muhammad Hilman Idham said news reports by Free Malaysia Today and Malaysiakini were an attempt to split the coalition that was backing Ismail and to destabilise Perikatan Nasional (PN). Earlier today, in an article titled “Fears over confidence vote may swing DPM post to Azmin”, FMT reported that Bersatu and Umno leaders feared that Azmin might not back Ismail during a motion of confidence in the Dewan Rakyat if he was not appointed the country’s number two. According to a source, if “Azmin does not get his way, he and his gang will most probably become independent candidates”. - More -   Umno, Bersatu insiders disclose who’s being nominated for which posts Posted by: superadmin - 08-25-2021, 09:14 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Ismail Sabri’s Cabinet: Umno, Bersatu insiders disclose who’s being nominated for which posts KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob is not keen on having a deputy, let alone one from political rival Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia, party insiders divulged. However, sources from both Umno and Bersatu told Malay Mail that Ismail may have little choice but to appoint one as it was among the conditions laid down by Bersatu in return for its support to his prime ministership last week. And the Bersatu nominee for the DPM post is Datuk Seri Azmin Ali, who has also been suggested to be put in charge of the Ministry of Finance (MOF). “Azmin was suggested as DPM and MoF,” a Bersatu insider said on condition of anonymity. - More - Pages (1147): « Previous 1 … 886 887 888 889 890 … 1147 Next » Jump to page:
