APT WARNING BY THE LATE C.C TOO AGAINST LEGACY OF CHIN PENG ‘S STRUGGLE

During these final days of the leader of the Communist Party of Malaya  (CPM) leader Chin Peng, we should look briefly into his more than 40 years of guerilla struggle which was also supported by the Malay leftist-nationalists who aspired to establish the concept of “Melayu Raya” as the power in the Malay archipelago.
Several Malay nationalists like  Shamsiah Fakeh, Zainab Baginda, Musa Ahmad, Abu Samah, Ibrahim Cik and others, joined the MCP in armed struggle in the forest, but Dr. Burhanuddin, Pak Sako, Ahmad Boestaman and others, fought as front liners in several political parties that were banned during the rule of the British colonial.
In fact after Independence, they continued to be pressured and several of their key leaders, like Dr. Burhanuddin, Ahmad Boestaman and Ishak Haji Muhammad, were sent to jail because they continued to champion Melayu Raya.
With the exception of Rashid Maidin and Abdullah C.D who believed in the communist ideology, many of the Malay leftist-nationalists did not openly showed their opposition to CPM and both quarters seemed to have an understanding and confidence of being able to continue to work together if their struggle in fighting the British and the pro-British Independent Malaya government succeeded.
Perhaps, this belief also exist in the cooperation between DAP, PAS and Keadilan in Pakatan Rakyat now, but be reminded, the aspiration of Melayu Raya was shattered by CPM from the beginning.
Next, I’m going to give a brief picture, hypothetically, by providing facts from both sides, not just from the Malayan and Malaysian Special Branch Police, but also from books written by the 10th Malay Regiment of CPM.
Whatever the interpretation given to them, whether as terrorists or traitors or independence guerilla fighters, what cannot be denied is their determination and sacrifice that they were willing to leave their families, suffered for years in the jungles, being tortured and threatened with death all the time.
Malay leftist fighters like Ibrahim Yaacob, Ishak Haji Mommad,  Samad Ismail, Dr. Burhanuddin, Ahmad Boestaman and many Utusan Melayu people before the Utusan strike  in 1961, believed that the Malay power could reduce the Chinese power in the Malay Settlement and Singapores, if the joint struggle succeeded.
This is clear in the thinking of Utusan Melayu Deputy Chief Editor, A. Samad Ismail, in an interview with James Mitchener in The New Intellectual in his book, The Voice of Asia (1951). Samad expressed confidence that the problems of the Communist Chinese could be addressed with the rise of a new power.The new power meant by him was Melayu Raya and that was also what was understood by Singapore Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, Samad’s colleague during the early stage, in his memoirs which resulted in him to be prejudicial against Samad.
However, Rashid Maidin, the leader of the CPM’s 10th Regiment, wrote in his memoirs, "Daripada Perjuangan Bersenjata Kepada Perdamaian"  (From Armed Struggle To Peace) on page 20-21, provided evidence which dismissed Samad’s belief because according to Rashid, when the Japanese surrendered to the Allies, the MCP disagreed on the declaration of independence with Indonesia, as was done by Soekarno.
The simultaneous declaration of independence was proposed by Ibrahim Yaacob to CPM.
Rasid said, "In fact Ibrahim Yaacob himself, Head of the Young Malay Union and Keris during the Japanese occupation, had proposed to Lai Tek, (the first MCP secretary-general) for the simultaneous declaration of independence, together oppose the re-entry of the British, each had weapons, Ibrahim Yaacob had weapons left by the Japanese and the CPM had weapons supplied by the British, but the suggestion by Ibrahim Yaacob was rejected by Lai Tek and Ibrahim Yaacob was forced to flee to Indonesia".
If this was done by Lai Tek, because he was a British agent, then how would Chin Peng react when Indonesian Foreign Minister, Subandrio, who was also a member of the Indonesian Communist Party, requested for CPM’s support during the Indonesian Confrontation.
Aloysius Chin, Deputy Director of Special Branch (Operation), the Royal Malaysia Police, who retired in 1985, stated in his book, The Communist Party Of Malaya The Inside Story (page 115), that MCP secretary-general, Chin Peng made a policy statement of CPM supporting the Indonesian confrontation was a mere lip service as a show of respect for Subandrio (this is certainly based on information obtained by the Special Branch).
"In reality, the CPM did not support the ganyang (crush) Malaysia campaign organized by Indonesia because its success could lead to the possibility of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) to be influential in Malaysia and the possibility of the CPM be controlled by the PKI,” he said.
This gives a perception that the CPM feared control by the Malays (PKI) and that chauvinism prevailed over communist ideology.
Meanwhile, Shamsiah Fakeh, who also fought with the CPM and in the end was sent to China to be doctrinated in the 1960s, in her book , Memoirs of Shamsiah Fakeh, wrote how she and her husband were tortured in China after being expelled from CPM in Beijing and was sentenced to two years’ jail for her lack of faith in communism or the teachings of Mao Tze Tong.
They were brought before the CPM members at the CPM Court in Beijing, “We were tied up, slapped, forced to bow and plead guilty. The hitter was the CPM Youths, comprising children of CPM members in China” (page 118)."At that time, Chin Peng was the  Head of the CPM Central Committee Delegation in China in 1982. All these happened before Chin Peng’s eyes”. (page 116).  The CPM has an organisation in Beijing.
It turned out that Utusan Melayu Deputy Chief Editor, A. Samad Ismail, a nationalist who became a frontliner of the communist in the Singapore ABL (Anti British League), missed out in his prediction to James Mitchener that "Some of the Chinese are comunists yes, but they are of no significance. I choose to believe that the Chinese we have will not follow communism but will instead become a part of a new Malay nation. Their interest is with us and not with China."
What was meant by Samad with the new Malay Nation? Certainly, Melayu Raya.
Actually, the cooperation between Pakatan Rakyat, comprising Pas, Parti Keadilan and DAP, which wanted to amend the country’s constitution, is almost similar with the concept of cooperation between CPM and the Malay leftist parties and Malay nationalists, including Utusan Melayu which wanted to change the Federal Constitution to the People’s Constitution since the late 40s.
Anwar Ibrahim himself had a history of a leftist struggle since his university days with his revolutionary action where lying became a culture. For example, in 1974, the country was rocked by a demonstration by rubber tappers in Balingbecause there were rubber tappers who died of starvation. This demonstration was masterminded by ABIM.
I, myself, as a Utusan journalist, was sent to Baling to check the news, but after checking with the police doctors, village head and residents in Wing, where the alleged rubber tappers died, it was found that the allegation was baseless.
Soon after being sacked gtom UMNO, Anwar, in a flash, launched endless street demonstrations which shook the country, depicting various struggles by the people.
Actually, many Pas leaders do not trust Anwar, but it is a mean to an end. Pas believes that if its succeeds on conquering Putrajaya, it can control Anwar or Keadilan, but will Keadilan be with Pas in this ploy after the election?
Perhaps, Pas, which used to support the Indonesian confrontation under the leadership of the Malay nationalists to realize the concept of Melayu Raya, and now under the ulama leadership, believes a new Islamic state with DAP and Parti Keadilan could be established after the 13th general election.
It is not impossible that this will be a reality because DAP would not follow CPM which opposed Melayu Raya, because DAP believes in the Pas’ ulama liberalism which has been proven with Pas acceptance of Anwar Ibrahim’s leadership, despite his moral problems, and other tolerant attitude by Pas on religion.
If now they can cooperate and bury their differences to achieve power, what more after the election, to retain power.
The shadow cabinet of the Malaysian People’s Republic government under Pakatan Rakyat , comprises Haji Abdul  Hadi Awang as the President, Lim Kit Siang as the Prime Minister and Anwar Ibrahim as the Minister of  Various Religion.
It is apt the prediction by the country’s head of psychological warfare  (1956-1983) , the late Tan Sri C.C. Too, that  "CPM(PKM) was merely "temporarily suspending" its armed struggle,but through infiltration and subversion  with the help of communist surrogates would create a " new revolutionary  situatian" which would be expedited and aggravated by any future economic recession in the country.
"History is likely to repeat itself unless timely and positive action are taken to prevent any recurrence" (The CPM The Inside Story  Aloysius Chin halaman 248).
But now help no longer comes from a particular source, but from various sources., but the objective of their struggle remain one. What remains the frontier of strength is economy, but gangsterism is eroding the trust of the people and foreign countries every day.

AMARAN TEPAT MENDIANG C.C TOO TERHADAP WARISAN PERJUANGAN CHIN PENG

Dalam saat-saat pemimpin PKM, Chin Peng menghadapi hari-hari akhirnya, perlu kita melihat secara ringkas perjuangan gurilanya lebih 40 tahun yang turut didukong oleh nasionalis-nasionalis kiri Melayu yang berhasrat untuk mewujudkan Melayu Raya sebagai kuasa Melayu Nusantara.

Beberapa orang nasionalis Melayu seperti Shamsiah Fakeh, Zainab Baginda, Musa Ahmad, Abu Samah, Ibrahim Cik dan lain-lain, menyertai PKM dalam perjuangan bersenjata di hutan rimba,  tetapi Dr. Burhanuddin, Pak Sako, Ahmad Boestaman dan lain-lain, berjuang di barisan depan dalam beberapa parti politik yang diharamkan semasa pemerintah kolonial British.

Malah selepas kemerdekaanpun, mereka terus tertekan dan pemimpin utama mereka seperti Dr. Burhanuddin, Ahmad Boestaman dan Ishak Haji Muhammad, dipenjarakan  kerana meneruskan perjuangan untuk menegakkan Melayu Raya.

Tan Sri C.C TooKecuali Rashid Maidin dan Abdullah C.D yang benar-benar berfahaman komunis, tetapi kebanyakan pejuang kiri merupakan nasionalis Melayu, tetapi mereka tidak pernah menampakkan penentangan terbuka  terhadap PKM dan kedua pihak, seperti mempunyai persafahaman dan keyakinan akan dapat terus bekerjasama sekiranya perjuangan mereka menentang British dan Kerajaan Malaya Merdeka yang pro British berjaya.

Mungkin demikianlah juga keyakinan yang tersirat dalam kerjasama antara parti DAP, PAS dan Keadilan di dalam Pakatan Rakyat sekarang, tetapi harus diingatkan, bahawa cita-cita Melayu Raya telah dipatahkan oleh PKM dari sejak baru mula berputik.

Gambaran berikut yang saya cuba berikan secara ringkas bersifat hypothesis dengan memberikan fakta-fakta benar dari kedua pihak, tidak sahaja dari pihak Polis Cawangan Khas Malaya dan Malaysia, tetapi juga dari buku-buku yang ditulis oleh pemimpin-pemimpin  Regement ke 10 sayap Melayu kepada PKM.

Apapun tafsiran yang diberikan kepada  mereka, sama ada sebagai pengganas atau penderhaka atau sebagai gurila pejuang kemerdekaan, tetapi yang tidak dapat dinafikan adalah iltizam dan pengorbanan mereka kepada keyakinan dan perjuangan sehingga sanggup meninggalkan keluarga, sengsara bertahun-tahun dalam hutan rimba, mengalami seksaan dan ancaman maut sepanjang masa.

Pejuang-pejuang kiri Melayu seperti Ibrahim Yaacob, Ishak Haji Mommad,  Samad Ismail, Dr. Burhanuddin, Ahmad Boestaman dan ramai orang-orang Utusan Melayu sebelum mogok poiltik  Utusan pada tahun  1961,  meyakini bahawa kuasa Melayu  akan dapat memperkecilkan kuasa Cina di Semenanjung Tanah Melayu dan Singapura, jika perjuangan bersama itu berjaya.
Chin Peng
Ini jelas dari pemikiran Timbalan Ketua Pengarang Utusan Melayu, A. Samad Ismail dalam interviunya dengan James Mitchener dalam bab The New Intellectual dalam bukunya The Voice of Asia (1951). Samad menyatakan keyakinan masalah orang Cina komunis akan dapat diatasi dengan tegaknya suatu kuasa baru.

Kuasa baru yang dimaksudkannya ialah Melayu Raya dan demikian juga yang difahami oleh Perdana Menteri Singapura, Lee Kuan Yew rakan seperjuangan Samad di peringkat awal, dalam buku memoirnya yang menyebabkan beliau mempunyai prasangka kepada Samad.

Tetapi tulisan Rashid Maidin, Pemimpin Regimen ke 10 PKM, dalam buku memorinya  "Daripada Perjuangan Bersenjata Kepada Perdamaian"  di halaman 20-21 memberikan bukti yang menolak keyakinan Samad itu, kerana menurut Rashid, apabila Jepun menyerah diri kepada pihak Bersekutu, PKM tidak  bersetuju  mengistiharkan kemerdekaan bersama Indonesia sepertimana dilakukan oleh Soekarno.

Cadangan peristiharan kemerdekaan  serentak itu telah dibuat oleh Ibrahim Yaacob kepada PKM.

Kata Rashid, "Malah Ibrahim Yaacob sendiri, Ketua Kesatuan Melayu Muda dan Ketua Keris ketika pendudukan Jepun, pernah mencadangkan kepada Lai Tek, (Setiausaha Agung PKM yang pertama) untuk sama-sama mengisytiharkan kemerdekaan, bersatu menentang kemasukan semula British, masing-masing ada senjata, Ibrahim Yaacob ada senjata peninggalan Jepun dan PKM ada senjata yang dibekalkan oleh British, tetapi saranan Ibrahim Yaacob ditolak oleh Lai Tek dan Ibrahim Yaacob yang terpaksa lari ke Indonesia".

Sekiranya ini dilakukan oleh Lai Tek kerana dia adalah ejen British, maka bagaimana pula sikap Chin Peng ketika Menteri Luar Indonesia, Subandrio yang juga seorang anggota Parti Komunis Indonesia, (PKI) meminta sokongan PKM kepada Konfrantasi Indonesia?

Aloysius Chin, Timbalan Pengarah Cawangan Khas (Operasi), Polis Diraja Malaysia, yang bersara pada tahun 1985, menyatakan dalam bukunya The Communist Party Of Malaya The Inside Story (halaman 115), bahawa Setiausaha Agung PKM, Chin Peng membuat kenyataan dasar PKM menyokong konfrantasi Indonesia hanyalah sekadarkan di bibir sahaja sebagai menghormati Subandrio (ini tentunya berdasarkan maklumat yang jatuh ke tangan Cawangan Khas).

Shamsiah Fakeh"Pada hakikatnya, PKM tidak menyokong kempen ganyang Malaysia yang dianjurkan oleh Indonesia, kerana kejayaannya kelak akan membawa kepada kemungkinan Parti Komunis Indonesia (PKI) berpengaruh di Malaysia dan kemungkinan PKM dikuasai oleh PKI," katanya.

Ini memberikan persepsi bahawa PKM bimbang kepada penguasaan Melayu (PKI) dan bahawa chauvanisme mengatasi ideologi komunis.

Sementara itu, Shamsiah Fakeh yang berjuang bersama PKM dan akhirnya di hantar ke Cina untuk didoktrinasikan dalam tahun 60han dalam bukunya Memoir Shamsiah Fakeh, telah menceritakan bagaimana dia di seksa di China bersama suaminya, setelah dipecat dari PKM di Beijing dan dihukum penjara selama dua tahun kerana tidak cukup beriman dengan komunisme atau  ajaran Mao Tze Tong.

Mereka dihadapkan di depan anggota PKM di Dewan Mahkamah PKM di Beijing, "Kami diikat tangan, ditempeleng, dipaksa membongkok dan mengaku salah. Tukang pukul ialah Barisan Pemuda PKM daripada anak-anak anggota PKM di China (halaman 118).

"Waktu itu, Chin Peng menjadi Ketua Delegasi Jawatankuasa Pusat PKM di China pada tahun 1982. Ini semua berlaku di depan mata Chin Peng," (halaman 116). PKM mempunyai organisasinya di Beijing.

Ternyatalah bahawa  Timbalan Ketua Pengarang Utusan Melayu, A. Samad Ismail seorang nasionalis  yang menjadi anggota barisan depan komunis di Singapore ABL (Anti British League) juga meleset dari ramalannya  yang dinyatakan kepada James Mitchener bahawa  "Some of the Chinese are comunists yes, but they are of no significance. I choose to believe that the Chinese we have will not follow communism but will instead become a part of a new Malay nation. Their interest is with us and not with China."

Apakah yang dimaksudkan oleh Samad dengan new Malay Nation? tentunya Melayu Raya.

Sebenarnya, kerjasama antara Pakatan Rakyat yang terdiri dari Pas, Parti Keadilan dan DAP yang mahu menukarkan perlembagaan negara, adalah hampir menyerupai konsep kerjasama antara PKM dan parti-parti kiri Melayu dan nasionalis-nasionalis Melayu termasuk Utusan Melayu sendiri yang mahu menukarkan Perlembagan Persekutuan kepada Parlembagaan Rakyat yang bermula dari sejak akhir tahun 40han.

Anwar Ibrahim sendiri mempunyai sejarah perjuangan yang kekirian dari sejak alam universitinya lagi yang menyerlah dalam cara tindakan revolusioner yang  menjadikan pembohongan sebagai budaya. Umpamanya dalam tahun 1974 negara di gemparkan oleh  tunjuk perasaan  penoreh penoreh getah  di Baling kerana ada penoreh mati kebuluran. Tunjuk perasaan ini didalangi oleh ABIM.

Saya sendiri sebagai wartawan Utusan telah dikejarkan ke Baling untuk menyiasat berita ini, tetapi setelah menjalankan siasatan menyeluruh dari kalangan Polis, Doktor, Penghulu dan termasuk penduduk di Wing, kampung di mana kematian itu dikatakan berlaku, ternyata cerita ini tidak berasas langsung.

Sebaik sahaja dipecat dari UMNO, Anwar  bertindak seperti kilat melancarkan demonstrasi jalanan yang tidak putus-putus menggegarkan tanah air dalam pelbagai gambaran perjuangan rakyat yang dijangka akan semakin hebat apabila mendekati pilihanraya.

Sebenarnya, ramai pemimpin Pas yang tidak percaya kepada Anwar, tetapi matlamat menghalalkan cara. Pas mempunyai keyakinan jika berjaya menduduki Putaraya, ia akan dapat menguasai Anwar atau Keadilan. Tetapi apakah Keadilan akan bersama dengan Pas dalam percaturan selepas Pilihanraya?.

Barangkali Pas yang pernah menyokong konfrantasi Indonesia di bawah pimpinan nasionalis-nasionalis Melayu untuk menjayakan gagasan Melayu Raya, sekarang di bawah pimpinan ulama, percaya sebuah negara Islam baru bersama dengan DAP dan Parti Keadilan akan dapat ditubuhkan selepas Pilihanraya Umum ke 13.

Hal ini tidak mustahil boleh menjadi realiti kerana DAP tidak akan mengikuti langkah PKM yang menentang Melayu Raya, kerana DAP mempunyai keyakinan kepada liberalisme ulama Pas yang terbukti dengan penerimaan Pas terhadap kepimpinan Anwar Ibrahim yang  mempunyai masalah moral dan lain-lain sikap tolak ansur Pas mengenai agama.

Jika sekarang dapat berkerjasama dan membenamkan perbezaan prinsip masing-masing demi untuk menuju ke arah kuasa,  maka apatahlagi selepas pilihanraya, demi untuk mengekalkan kuasa.

Kabinet bayangan Pemerintah Republik Rakyat Malaysia di bawah Pakatan Rakyat yang paling mantap, ialah Haji Abdul  Hadi Awang sebagai Presiden, Lim Kit Siang Perdana Menteri dan Anwar Ibrahim sebagai Menteri Berbagai Agama.

Adalah tepat sekali ramalan Ketua Perang Sarap Negara (1956-1983) mendiang Tan Sri C.C. Too, bahawa "CPM(PKM) was merely "temporarily suspending" its armed struggle,but through infiltration and subversion  with the help of communist surrogates would create a " new revolutionary  situatian" which would be expedited and aggravated by any future economic recession in the country.


"History is likely to repeat itself unless timely and positive action are taken to prevent any recurrence" (The CPM The Inside Story  Aloysius Chin halaman 248).

Tetapi sekarang pertolongan bukan lagi datang dari suatu sumber, tetapi dari berbagai-bagai sumber, namun matlamat perjuangan anasir-anasir ini tetap satu. Cuma yang masih menjadi tembok kekuatan sekarang ialah ekonomi, tetapi gangsterism sedang mengikis kepercayaan rakyat dan luar negara setiap hari.

GAINS, RAKYAT LOSES

From Day 1, Tony Fernandes has been manipulating Malaysian laws and law-makers to his advantage; and each time he gets what he wanted, he gets more arrogant and cocky.

The Ministry of International Trade and Industy stopped the deceptive practice of pricing things at “.99” which cheated the rakyat into thinking something was cheaper than it actually was. But AirAsia has been quoting fares at “RM199” all along with impunity. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Domestic Trade & Consumerism issued guidelines where restaurants, hotels and airlines are forced to list all-inclusive prices, but for a decade AirAsia advertised a non-existent ’fare’ minus many other charges. Also, passengers have been ‘robbed’ of millions due to cancelled flights that are not compensated. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Finance vetted, evaluated and decided on airport-taxes and airport-charges. AirAsia refused to pay for years, and openly breaks the gazetted laws. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but all the while the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Transport supervised and approved the KLIA Master Plan, but AirAsia could override and get their own LCCT built exactly where they wanted, with tax-payers money. Soon, they grumbled that this was not good enough. They wanted their own airport in Negeri Sembilan, regardless of the danger of traffic-control so near to Malaysia’s biggest air-hub. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Federal Territories and Urban Well-being laid out the guidelines for development of KL Sentral as an air-rail hub, and residential units were priced at the top-echelon to the global market. Yet Air Asia can set up a low-cost bus system there against the protests of foreign property-owners, ERL and others who had invested millions. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airlines Rural Air Services was taken away from the people of Sabah and Sarawak and the small private company called FAX caused untold suffering to the peoples with its selfish, restrictive policies. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad has won awards all over the globe for being the World’s Best in many different areas; but in Malaysia, it has been bullied, humiliated and robbed by Air Asia year after year. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airlines has always been unfairly attacked and mocked by Tony Fernandes who conveniently ignores the fact that as a IATA-registered airline conforming to world aviation standards, the national-carrier cannot take all the ’short-cuts’ in operating procedures that AirAsia does. In a few weeks, some of Malaysia Airlines’ most profitable routes like Surabaya have been destroyed to give AirAsia a monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

FlyFirefly.com was financially very successful, and provided Malaysians with affordable and convenient service between West and East Malaysia. This was destroyed because it was threatening AirAsia’s lucrative low-cost monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Sepang Aircraft Engineering Sdn. Bhd. spent millions to set up Malaysia’s first bumiputra aircraft Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Facility, apparently on ‘certain promise’ that Air Asia would use them. Instead AirAsia signed up with SINGAPORE and both SAE and MAS were left out completely. Huge amounts of ringgit now flow into Singapore. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Senai Airport Terminal Services Sdn. Bhd. received a ‘certain promise’ that it would be the main hub for AirAsia, but after the company invested millions, that promise was not kept. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

State governments like Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Sabah, Sarawak, etc have received all kinds of promises from AirAsia but nothing materialised. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysian patriots were fed propaganda that AirAsia is proud of our country, yet it has criticised and shamed our best GLCs and government ministries publicly on the Internet with its attacks. The main person whom Tony Fernandes has depended on is a Singaporean woman, and all expenditure on aircraft MRO is showered on Singapore. Now, the airline’s main Head Office is in Indonesia, and millions of ringgit will flow there as well. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

All these are just the tip of the iceberg – for over ten years Malaysians are too scared to speak out due to the “powerful connections” of this wheeler-dealer and Master Manipulator. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses. When will this end?

OutSyed The Box:Zamkata Fires Torpedoes At .

There is a really hot posting on Zamkata today. It is so hot that a virus hit Zam's computer this morning.  Here is an excerpt from "AirAsia gains, rakyat loses"   Do read the full story at  Zamkata
From Day 1, Tony Fernandes has been manipulating Malaysian laws and law-makers to his advantage; and each time he gets what he wanted, he gets more arrogant and cocky.
My Comment : Well this was  possible because he had Slumberjack's family, especially the SIL and that crook from Jalan Riong on his side.
The Ministry of Domestic Trade & Consumerism issued guidelines where restaurants, hotels and airlines are forced to list all-inclusive prices, but for a decade AirAsia advertised a non-existent ’fare’ minus many other charges. Also, passengers have been ‘robbed’ of millions due to cancelled flights that are not compensated. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comment : Even the delayed flights were bad enough, sometimes delayed for hours. But the cancelled flights have certainly caused people much losses. Not refunding the airfare would be a crime, it is certainly not a favour to refund the fares for cancelled flights. But what about missed appointments, business lost, hotel bookings lost?
The Ministry of Transport supervised and approved the KLIA Master Plan, but AirAsia could override and get their own LCCT built exactly where they wanted, with tax-payers money. Soon, they grumbled that this was not good enough. They wanted their own airport in Negeri Sembilan, regardless of the danger of traffic-control so near to Malaysia’s biggest air-hub. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comment : The SIL comes from NS. The MB is the SIL's crony.  Plus the family are shareholders, possibly thru that crook from Jalan Riong. An airport at NS would do wonders for their net worth. Check who bought land around the proposed airport site.  The LCCT was built for about half a billion Ringgit. It is a tin shed - like a huge 1970s bus station. Half a billion? Siapa dapat kontrak?
The Ministry of Federal Territories and Urban Well-being laid out the guidelines for development of KL Sentral as an air-rail hub, and residential units were priced at the top-echelon to the global market. Yet Air Asia can set up a low-cost bus system there against the protests of foreign property-owners, ERL and others who had invested millions. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comments : The same links were in place. Itu pasal boleh arrogant.
Malaysia Airlines Rural Air Services was taken away from the people of Sabah and Sarawak and the small private company called FAX caused untold suffering to the peoples with its selfish, restrictive policies. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comments : They sapu the aircraft too from MAS. Later after they pulled out, they returned the aircraft in terrible condition. More arrogance. Why? They have cable connections.
Malaysia Airlines :.. In a few weeks, some of Malaysia Airlines’ most profitable routes like Surabaya have been destroyed to give AirAsia a monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comments : The question is siapa yang suruh MAS bagi Surabaya kat Air Asia? Siapa bodoh?  Now Air Asia's nominees are still holding major positions in MAS. Jawatan utama MAS masih dipegang oleh calon Air Asia. Siapa bodoh? MAS Catering dijual kepada keluarga Perdana Menteri Penyamun. Siapa bodoh? 
FlyFirefly.com was financially very successful, and provided Malaysians with affordable and convenient service between West and East Malaysia. This was destroyed because it was threatening AirAsia’s lucrative low-cost monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comments : And we all thought Tony was a clever operator who could survive with free market competition. Rupanya dia guna crony power juga untuk survive. Now they have included Tony in the 'Committee to Reform The Education System'. Maybe 'Commercial Piracy 101' will become required reading? 
Malaysian patriots were fed propaganda that AirAsia is proud of our country ... The main person whom Tony Fernandes has depended on is a Singaporean woman, and all expenditure on aircraft MRO is showered on Singapore. Now, the airline’s main Head Office is in Indonesia, and millions of ringgit will flow there as well. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.
My comments : What can we say : Tony is a clever guy. Siapa bodoh? Siapa suruh kita jadi bodoh? Slumberjack's family hold major cables in Air Asia. And Slumberjack is Advisor to MAS ! !  Kucing sudah masuk kedai kari kepala ikan. 
All these are just the tip of the iceberg – for over ten years Malaysians are too scared to speak out due to the “powerful connections” of this wheeler-dealer and Master Manipulator. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses. When will this end?
My comment : When will this end? This will only end if the PM Dato Najib removes all the pirates from the Cabinet. The Billionaire and multi millionaire Ministers in the Cabinet are all responsible for all this crap. In the Millionaire's Club (aka the Malaysian Cabinet) its 'you scratch my back I scratch your back. Lu jangan kacau projek saya, saya tak kacau projek lu'. Otherwise how can Air Asia get LCCT terminal, get Surabaya, get Sabah & Sarawak? 
Akhir kalam : Siapa bodoh? Dont blame Tony Fernandes - he is just being clever. When we are stupid, other people will take advantage of us.  
Now Tony is in Jakarta. Do you think Tony can do the same thing in Jakarta? The quick answer : Of course he can. How? Bisa diatur Pak. Ini kan Indonesia.  Do you think Indons will be  'out of place'  at QPR games?  Bisa di atur Pak. Bisa di atur.   They can take the seats occupied by Amok, Danny and the other dunggus.  Siapa pandai, siapa bodoh?

AIRASIA GAINS, RAKYAT LOSES

From Day 1, Tony Fernandes has been manipulating Malaysian laws and law-makers to his advantage; and each time he gets what he wanted, he gets more arrogant and cocky.

The Ministry of International Trade and Industy stopped the deceptive practice of pricing things at “.99” which cheated the rakyat into thinking something was cheaper than it actually was. But AirAsia has been quoting fares at “RM199” all along with impunity. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Domestic Trade & Consumerism issued guidelines where restaurants, hotels and airlines are forced to list all-inclusive prices, but for a decade AirAsia advertised a non-existent ’fare’ minus many other charges. Also, passengers have been ‘robbed’ of millions due to cancelled flights that are not compensated. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Finance vetted, evaluated and decided on airport-taxes and airport-charges. AirAsia refused to pay for years, and openly breaks the gazetted laws. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but all the while the Malaysian rakyat loses.

The Ministry of Transport supervised and approved the KLIA Master Plan, but AirAsia could override and get their own LCCT built exactly where they wanted, with tax-payers money. Soon, they grumbled that this was not good enough. They wanted their own airport in Negeri Sembilan, regardless of the danger of traffic-control so near to Malaysia’s biggest air-hub. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airlines Rural Air Services was taken away from the people of Sabah and Sarawak and the small private company called FAX caused untold suffering to the peoples with its selfish, restrictive policies. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad has won awards all over the globe for being the World’s Best in many different areas; but in Malaysia, it has been bullied, humiliated and robbed by Air Asia year after year. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysia Airlines has always been unfairly attacked and mocked by Tony Fernandes who conveniently ignores the fact that as a IATA-registered airline conforming to world aviation standards, the national-carrier cannot take all the ’short-cuts’ in operating procedures that AirAsia does. In a few weeks, some of Malaysia Airlines’ most profitable routes like Surabaya have been destroyed to give AirAsia a monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

FlyFirefly.com was financially very successful, and provided Malaysians with affordable and convenient service between West and East Malaysia. This was destroyed because it was threatening AirAsia’s lucrative low-cost monopoly. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Sepang Aircraft Engineering Sdn. Bhd. spent millions to set up Malaysia’s first bumiputra aircraft Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Facility, apparently on ‘certain promise’ that Air Asia would use them. Instead AirAsia signed up with SINGAPORE and both SAE and MAS were left out completely. Huge amounts of ringgit now flow into Singapore. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Senai Airport Terminal Services Sdn. Bhd. received a ‘certain promise’ that it would be the main hub for AirAsia, but after the company invested millions, that promise was not kept. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

State governments like Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Sabah, Sarawak, etc have received all kinds of promises from AirAsia but nothing materialised. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

Malaysian patriots were fed propaganda that AirAsia is proud of our country, yet it has criticised and shamed our best GLCs and government ministries publicly on the Internet with its attacks. The main person whom Tony Fernandes has depended on is a Singaporean woman, and all expenditure on aircraft MRO is showered on Singapore. Now, the airline’s main Head Office is in Indonesia, and millions of ringgit will flow there as well. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses.

All these are just the tip of the iceberg – for over ten years Malaysians are too scared to speak out due to the “powerful connections” of this wheeler-dealer and Master Manipulator. Tony Fernandes has very clever ‘reasons’, but the Malaysian rakyat loses. When will this end?

TINDAKAN "SUPERMAN PKR" YANG TIDAK BANTU PARTI

Rafizi RamliPengarah Strategik PKR, Rafizi Ramli menyifatkan dirinya tidak penting dan menidakkan dirinya sebagai Superman, berhubung dengan tindakannya meletakan jawatan Ketua Eksekutif Pejabat Penasihat Ekonomi Selangor yang menimbulkan kegemparan politik.
Beliau memberitahu Sinar Harian Online, bahawa tindakannya itu adalah untuk memberikan tumpuan sepenuhnya kepada kerja-kerja strategi menghadapi Pilihan Raya Umum ke 13.
"Kerja saya semakin hari, semakin bertambah. Saya bukan Superman, tidak boleh lakukan dua tiga perkara dalam satu masa," katanya.
Beliau juga menafikan berita mengatakan, beliau akan melompat parti dan menegaskan: "Saya berjanji akan bersunat sekali lagi, kalau lompat parti. Patut semua wakil rakyat kena janji macam ini."
CATATAN:
Jika Rafizi tidak penting dan bukan Superman, maka masakan tindakannya itu akan menjadi berita besar  yang menggemparkan. Maka itu, apapun alasan yang diberikan oleh Rafizi, tindakannya itu tidak bijak pada anggapan orang yang matang dan rasional kerana beliau melakukannya dalam  keadaan parti memerlukan perpaduan dan consolidasi bagi  menghadapi Pilihan Raya Umum ke 13. Masakan Rafizi yang pandai kira-kira tidak membuat perkiraan politik.Jika Barisan Nasional mengambil kesempatan untuk menangguk di air keruh, maka Rafizilah yang telah menggocakkannya.
Rafizi seorang yang masih mempunyai kredebliti dalam PKR tetapi malangnya, beliau menyertai Timbalan Presiden PKR, Azmi Ali untuk mengikuti tektik berbohong kering Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

BERJAYA BOOKS JUAL YANG HARAM.

Tan Sri Vincent TanRupa-rupanya Berjaya Books Sdn milik Tan Sri Vincent Tan, adalah penjual dan penyerbar buku Allah, Kebebasan dan Cinta terjemahan dari buku Allah, Liberty and Love yang diharamkan oleh Kementerian Dalam Negeri. Buku itu dijual menerusi semua cawangan kedai bukunya di Malaysia, iaitu Borders.
Ketua Pegawai Operasi Berjaya Books, Yau Su Peng telah marah dengan tindakan pihak berkuasa yang mendakwa seorang pekejanya di Mahkamah Syariah baru-baru ini berhubung dengan penyebaran buku itu yang ditulis oleh penulis kontroversi Irashad Manji.
Nik Raina Nik Abdul Majid telah didakwa sebagai pengurus setor menjual buku Irshad itu di kedai buku Borders milik Berjaya Books Sdn Bhd di The Garden Mall Mid Valley City pada 23 Mei lalu, iaitu sebelum pengharaman buku itu di wartakan oleh KDN.
CATATAN: Tindakan KDN itu tentunya menakutkan orang Islam untuk berkerja di kedai buku Borders, kerana tidak sensitif kepada yang haram dan ramai orang Islam tentunya bertanya  kenapa pula buku ini tidak terjual di MPH?

TENTERA UPAHAN YANG BODOH SOMBONG DI INDONESIA

Penunjuk perasaan  meminjak Jalur Gemilang 
di hadapan Kedutaan Malaysia di JakartaRakyat Malaysia tentunya merasa bangga jika Indonesia atau lain-lain negara mahu mengadaptasikan ciri-ciri budayanya sebagai budaya mereka. Umpamanya jika Singapura mahu menjadikan  Dikir Barat dari Kelantan sebegai haknya maka kita akan mengalu-alukannya.
Apakah salah jika orang Cina Indonesia mengatakan  bahasa Indonesia yang menjadi pegucapannya setiap hari sebagai bahasanya.
Agak pelik bila orang Melayu Malaysia mahu menjadikan  beberapa ciri budaya Indonesia sebagai budaya  kita telah dibantah keras oleh segelintir manusia negara itu.
Untuk pengembangan dan penjajahan budayanya, Amerika Syarikat  membelanjakan wang berbillion dollar bagi strategi promosinya yang kreatif dan inovatif, sehingga seluruh dunia di tawan oleh budaya Barat khususnya; dari Amerika Syarikat.
Dari strategi pemasaran budayanya, Amerika Syarikat telah membuat keuntungan besar dari produk-produk yang berkaitan dengannya atau produk sampingannya, tetapi membingungkan dalam dunia yang melihat faedah pemasaran budaya, ada kelompok di Indonesia yang mahu mengepung budayanya.
Tarian Tor-tor diiringi Gordang Sambilan yang menimbulkan bantahan penunjuk perasaanInilah yang terpancar dari tunjuk perasaan paling ganas yang dilakukan oleh sekumpulan pemuda-pemuda Pancasila dan pelajar-pelajar Indonesia di hadapan Kedutaan Malaysia di Jakarta Jumaat lalu, sehingga ke peringkat mereka membaling batu, telur busuk, membakar bendera Malaysia dan mencederakan seorang anggota pengawal, hanya kerana Malaysia dikatakan mendakwa tarian Tor Tor dan Gordang Sambilan yang merupakan budaya Mandaling sebagai hak Malaysia.
Melihat dari segi konteks sentimen sedarah sedaging mungkin menimbulkan kemarahan kita, tetapi jika kita melihat dari segi konteks globalisasi atau dunia tanpa sempadan, maka kita akan ketawa melihat betapa  bodoh sombong manusia-manusia ini.
Walaupun bilangan mereka cukup kecil, tetapi perbuatan mereka sudah cukup besar untuk memalukan Indonesia bagi menampakan kesempitan fahaman negara itu terhadap arti globalisasi disebalik  kebebasan berdemonstrasi
Apakah untungnya jika Malaysia mengadaptasikan budaya asing kecuali membantu menerapkannya ke dalam masyarakat Malaysia dan jika sentimen hubungan antara Malaysia dan Indonesia mahu diambil kira maka ia adalah memupuk dan  mengeratkan lagi hubungan antara rakyat  kedua negara.
Bagaimanapun rakyat Malaysia tidak saharusnya menunjukkan reaksi yang akan mencemarkan Malaysia sebagai sebuah negara yang terbuka sekian lama dan seharusnya memahami sikap segelintir pemuda Indonesia itu, adalah oleh kerana Indonesia baru sahaja mengamalkan sikap terbuka.
Rakyat Malaysia terutamanya generasi baru Malaysia tidak tahu bahawa dari sejak kemerdekaan pada tahun 1947 sehingga kepada kejatuhan Sukarno dan terhapusnya komunis di Indonesia pada tahun 1965 maka barulah Indonesia membuka pintunya.

Sebelum itu rakyat Indonesia tidak  dapat melihat  filem-filem asing, sama ada menerusi televisyen atau panggung-panggung wayang.

Malaysia adalah negara yang terbuka dari sejak sebelum merdeka lagi dan telah menerima berbagai-bagai unsur budaya asing baik  dari Thailand, India, China dan juga Indonesia. Kita telah melihat filem-filem Hollywood dan Hindustan dari sejak sebelum merdeka.
Rakyat Indonesia pada keseluruhannya sekarang masih  berada dalam euphoria kebebasan, seperti ayam terlepas dari reban dan seperti  kera mendapat bunga. Yang terpelajar dengan cara terpelajarnya dan yang tidak terpelajar, berkelakuan biadap.

Malangnya, beberapa orang candiakawan terutama; dari golongan elit,  kita tidak dapat melihat  kebebasan Indonesia itu dari sudut sejarah atau dari perspektif  yang sebenar. Ini dapat kita lihat dalam tulisan-tulisan Kassim Raslan, Azmi Shahrom, Marina Mahathir dan Tunku Mukhriz di akhbar Inggeris The Star.

Bagi rakyat Malaysia, janganlah terkejut bila Kedutaan Malaysia  di Jakarta di serang dan pengawalnya dicederakan, sedangkan orang Indonesia dalam kasta penunjuk-penunjuk perasaan jalanan itu, menceroboh rumah rakyat Malaysia, merompak, membunuh dan merogol rakyat kita yang tidak berdosa hampir setiap hari.
Bersabarlah dan bertoleransilah untuk mengekalkan taraf kita sebagai negara yang terhormat di dunia. Biar negara kita kecil, tetapi dunia melihat kita besar, biar kita hanya adik, tetapi adik yang lebih bermaruah.
