500 days that changed Malaysia Posted by: superadmin - 08-01-2021, 09:09 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: Friday marked the 500th day since the first movement control order was implemented to contain the Covid-19 pandemic, although the policy has of late been derided following a surge in infections. Better known as MCO, or sometimes referred to as a lockdown, the movement restrictions came into effect on March 18 last year, ushering in a “new norm” which saw the public adhering to various SOPs. It spawned various iterations, such as the enhanced MCO (EMCO), the recovery MCO, and various phases of the national recovery plan. All were not without their problems, especially when it came to the accompanying rules, familarly known as SOPs. Some businesses were left confused, while others questioned the rationale, for instance, banning dining-in yet allowing eateries to operate until 8pm. - More -   MP SPEAKS | Parliament lockdown symbolises PN’s failure to control Covid-19 Posted by: superadmin - 08-01-2021, 08:56 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Lim Kit Siang MP SPEAKS | The Parliament lockdown last Thursday and on Monday symbolises the lack of credibility, legitimacy and the abysmal failure to bring under control the Covid-19 pandemic of Muhyiddin Yassin’s government. Because of its Sheraton Move” origins, the only redeeming feature of the illegitimate, undemocratic “backdoor” government is to bring the Covid-19 pandemic under control, which the kakistocratic backdoor government has signally failed to do. When the Covid-19 pandemic started under the Pakatan Harapan government last year, there were only 22 Covid-19 cases and zero death when the Pakatan Harapan government was toppled on Feb 24 that same year. - More -   Muhyiddin taking final step to save himself, say MPs Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 10:45 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: Opposition MPs have decried the decision to postpone Monday’s sitting of the Dewan Rakyat, saying it reeked of cowardice on the part of the government and it was proof that Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin has lost majority support. PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said the postponement was a political move by Muhyiddin to avoid calls for him to prove his parliamentary majority on Monday. “With this new development and the crisis between the prime minister and the Palace, it further exposes him as a troubled prime minister,” he told FMT. “Muhyiddin is under more pressure and this (postponing Parliament) is his last attempt to save himself,” he added. Amanah deputy president Salahuddin Ayub said the move proved that Muhyiddin was “scared” to go to Parliament. - More -   Extremely Angry King Wanted The Prime Minister’s Resignation Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 05:46 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Muhyiddin Govt Waging War Against Agong – Extremely Angry King Wanted The Prime Minister’s Resignation When Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, Attorney General Idrus Harun, House Speaker Azhar Harun (brother of A.G.), and leaders of allies – UMNO and PAS – met and hatched a plan to avoid a parliamentary vote on Monday (July 26), the first day the Parliament reconvened this year since the Proclamation of Emergency on January 12, they thought it would be a piece of cake. The plan was like a school kid, who in his attempt to avoid punishments, tried to forge his parents’ signature on the report card after failing the school’s final exam. The idiot sent to do the job was de-facto law minister Takiyuddin Hassan, who surprised the entire nation on Monday when he announced that the Cabinet had already revoked the emergency ordinances some five days earlier (July 21).   But unlike the school kid, who may be able to trick both his parents and class teacher, the backdoor government cannot easily forge King Sultan Abdullah’s signature and get away with it. Unlike a school report card, the revocation of the emergency ordinances must be published through something called an official gazette. There isn’t any gazette despite Takiyuddin’s claim. - More -   Govt trying to set things right via power grab, says Rafidah Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 04:39 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: The government appears to be attempting to right its wrongs by grabbing power while ignoring democratic processes and the constitutional monarchy, according to former international trade and industry minister Rafidah Aziz. Citing the Malay proverb “menegakkan benang yang basah”, Rafidah said the prime minister and his Cabinet were trying to set upright a “wet string”. “In fact, the string is now so waterlogged and heavy, with all kinds of dirt and infestations, that it is impossible to straighten, let alone set it upright!” The result, she said, was the increasing political turmoil which had tarnished the country’s image internationally. Through it all, it has also become clear for the people to see the government’s machinations — political planning done behind the scenes, strategies to grab power, and doing whatever it takes regardless of accountability and integrity — so long as its goals or the “scheme of things” are achieved. - More -   Domestic vaccines can offer Delta protection - China Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 03:47 PM - Forum: Covid-19 Pandemic - No Replies Amid rising concerns over the COVID-19 Delta variant's spread in China, virus experts and vaccine developers reaffirmed that domestic vaccines can provide protection against the highly transmissible strain. Shao Yiming, a researcher at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said from the point of view of a virologist, observed virus mutations only carry minor and early-stage changes to the original strain and they could hardly diminish approved vaccines' role in preventing hospitalizations, severe infections and deaths. "All COVID-19 vaccines around the world are evaluated based on their efficacy in preventing clinical disease, as well as their role in reducing serious cases and deaths," he said, adding that against these barometers, no marked difference has been found in domestic vaccines' effects on key mutations. Shao said it is not surprising to see breakthrough infections－people who test positive after being fully immunized－because no vaccine is capable of totally preventing people from catching the virus. Such cases have been reported recently in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, which is battling a local outbreak triggered by the very infectious Delta variant. - More -   Netizens demand truth on Fort Detrick Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 03:42 PM - Forum: Covid-19 Pandemic - No Replies More than 20 million people have signed an online letter to the World Health Organization demanding a thorough investigation into a secretive United States laboratory tainted by a poor safety record in order to gain a better understanding of the origins of the coronavirus. Despite the loud voices of concern from China and other countries, the US government has remained silent on the possibility of a link between the Fort Detrick lab and the origin of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It has refused to disclose critical information on the pretext of national security. The Maryland lab, which has close connections with the US military, stores the mostly deadly and infectious viruses, including Ebola, SARS and the novel coronavirus. The facility has a notorious record on lab security, the letter said. There was a leakage incident in the lab in the autumn of 2019, right before the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic. However, detailed information had been withheld by the US on what the letter stated was the excuse of national security grounds. In order to figure out the origins of the virus to eliminate potential hazards for human beings, Chinese netizens called on the WHO "to organize an investigation in the Fort Detrick lab and other US labs that have leakage hazards by inviting scientists including those from China, virologists and experts in lab security and chemical weapons who are independent from US geopolitical influence", the letter said. The lab was ordered to halt essential research in July 2019 by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but no detailed reasons have been offered. However, mysterious illnesses were reported right before and after the closure. - More -   YOURSAY | Who should form interim govt if there is one? Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 03:35 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies Poppy: An interim government is the right solution, but it needs the participation of all the various political parties, including the opposition. A leader that both sides of the political divide accept should be chosen to lead. Those chosen as ministers and deputies are selected according to merit and also from both sides. They will run the administration until the Covid-19 crisis is brought under control. Only then a decision is to be made as to the date of the general election. Umno should not lead the interim government and makes all the decisions concerning the future direction of this nation. It will want to further its agenda to grab as many seats in the coming elections. At the same time, Umno leaders Najib Abdul Razak and Ahmad Zahid Hamidi will be the ones pulling the strings of the puppet they will put in the PM's chair. OCT: There is a desperate need for the right people to form the interim government. More important is a team of experts who have the expertise in crisis management, health care, finance and economy. These are the four main sectors that need them. All selections must be based on meritocracy and have the right credentials, not more politicians as the rakyat have seen what politicians have done to Malaysia. There must be ownership with clear objectives, action plans and deliverables. Whoever fails to perform to expectation will be terminated immediately and not promoted as in the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government. This is a dire situation. Malaysia is on the brink of disaster. A bipartisan team with a vision to really help Malaysia to recover is needed. Right now, politics must take a back seat. Let the professionals do the job at warp speed. - More -   Malaysian youth converge on Dataran Merdeka for #Lawan protest Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 03:27 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies KUALA LUMPUR, July 31 — Hundreds of people consisting mainly of Malaysian youth gathered in the heart of Kuala Lumpur today to take part in the #Lawan protest. In the morning, the crowd, which was sparse initially, grew significantly by 10.45am, and by 11am, the entire length of Jalan Tun Perak below the Masjid Jamed LRT Station was packed. As protestors began to make their way slowly towards Dataran Merdeka, they were stopped by the police who said they were not allowed to enter the historic square. After some discussion, the police appeared to back down, but soon after, the protestors were still barred from entry, so they sat on the main road and began chanting while holding posters and banners aloft. Some also brought mock corpses wrapped in kapan cloth to symbolise the high number of daily deaths from Covid-19 in Malaysia as well as the country’s collapsing healthcare system. The protest was organised by Sekretariat Solidariti Rakyat (SSR), which consists of activists like Undi18’s Tharma Pillai, Afiq Adib and Muhammad Alshatri and Bersih’s Mohd Asraf Sharafi. - More -   Azhar recuses himself from deciding on ‘treason’ motion as AG is his brother Posted by: superadmin - 07-31-2021, 02:10 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: Dewan Rakyat Speaker Azhar Azizan Harun has announced he will abstain from deciding on a motion involving Attorney-General Idrus Harun, who is his elder brother. Azhar said he was distancing himself from the motion in view of the family ties. “Therefore, I have decided to exclude myself from making any decision with regard to the motion,” he said in a statement. He added that any decision on the motion will be left to the discretion of deputy speakers Mohd Rashid Hasnon and Azalina Othman Said, according to their seniority. “I will not interfere in any way in the deputy speakers’ duties in this matter.” - More - Pages (1133): « Previous 1 … 909 910 911 912 913 … 1133 Next » Jump to page:
