Your MP’s Question of the Week #6

After 08 March, the nation has witnessed the PM announced two major reforms regarding 1) the Judiciary and 2) the ACA.

Do you think that the PM should now really ‘walk his talk’ and immediately put these two reforms into motion without further wasting the nation’s time?

  1. For me it is a BIG YES!This PM is only good for talk,talk, talk. He is the master of sleep talk with eyes open. Let him wake up now and work, work, work.No more bull talk lah Bodowi. Correct, correct, correct.

  2. only ONE answer, YES YES AND YES!!if he doesnt walk the talk, he is just remaining inconsistent and remains a flip-flopper! We the people are watching you and your words coming out of your mouth

  3. The question this time not that spicy la, Mr. Wee….Of cos the PM shouldn’t waste anymore time….. he already wasted 5 years of our lives.Nab those little napoleons. sack them, not merely transfer them to another area to wreak havocs.Return the municipal voting rights to people. This country belongs to the rakyat, not Barang Naik or united malaysian nazi organization.Increase the salary of the public servants to at least RM2000~3000 per month. and punish those who were involved with graft even more severely (I don’t mind capital punishment)List out all the procedures and rules/regulations clearly to the public so nobody can ever attempt back-door access.Open tender. The NEP only capable of making ali babas.

  4. If Pak Lah can seriously reform the judiciary, police, ACA, and ISA, he will gain my respect.All talks lead to no where la. Waiting anxiously to see the next progress.Hopefully its not just a political move.

  5. Raised my hands and legs ==> YES!PM should talk less, do more now :)People will believe only if good result is produced.

  6. Only talk, talk and talk. Like the 9th Malaysian Plan only talk and the Plan is still on the shelf. So where this country is going? No where. Can’t wait to see his chapter closed. Once he goes, then htis country will have a new begining.

  7. salam sejahtera,dear sir, i am a UTAR student, I just wonder is it possible for the municipal council to help construct a pedestrian overhead crossing along jalan genting klang. it’s very dangerous to run across. thanks a lot.

  8. YB,can you tell anwar ibrahim to move asap because i don’t think paklah will do much because his hand are tight by his SIL, Najib and other mnisters.

  9. Of course lah!!But he is dragging the matter till Nov/Dec 2008 to coincide with umno elections.Ask him in parliament, what keeps him (Badawi) from establishing the judicial commission within a week of parliament opening?

  10. My foot teh PM is reforming the judiciary and ACA. He should reform himself by resigning to save the country rather than saving himself. The country already in deep shiut and he still want ot ruin it further just to save his SIL, son (kamaluddin) and cronies.He si jsut bullshitting about reform. Like any opther leaders who are in the deep shit always talked about reform when htey are dying politically.Forget aboutreoftm Bodohwi. Just get resign and go to AUstralia.

  11. To the UTAR student above,First of all, I can tell you the answer — NO, City Hall ain’t gonna be building any overhead bridge along that part of the road. It serves nobody, only UTAR students perhaps. Tmn Bunga Raya residents (and possibly TAR College students) have the public buses right in TBR itself. Who on earth would want to cross the Genting Kelang road at UTAR’s end?However, I do understand UTAR students’ predicament as I have witness for myself how they have to dash across the busy road sometimes. To resolve this, why not speak to UTAR’s establishment and get them to propose a more concrete solution for their own students?

  12. This Prime Minister is all talk. For example, the “revamped” ACA (or MCAC) is supposed to modelled after Hong Kong’s ICAC.Do you know who the ICAC reports to? It is an independent Operations Review Committee. It is a high powered committee, with the majority of its members coming from the private sector.The committee reviews EACH AND EVERY report of corruption and investigation, to ensure all complaints are properly dealt with and there is no

  13. I’m not sure if I’m right to say this.I have a gut feeling that what he is doing now is wanting to win back the support of the people. It’s like a slap in the face…. WAKE UP!!!The question here is, if he has won back the support of the people, will he continue to serve the people?

  14. The Sleepy Hewad only serve his family and cronies. Forget about him he is helping the Singapore government too. He is jsut hopeless full of talks and do nothing.When he resigned that is the begining of the recovery for Malaysia.

  15. Dear MP,I am a resident of Wangsa Maju Section 2. Hereby, I would like to draw your attention regarding the water leaking situation that cause the road to be flooded with water. Although it is not a very big issue, it do cause inconvenient to the pedestrain and user, especially motorist. The water will splash over the leg when crossing that area, it become worse if we wear long pants. In long run, it also lead to the tar road to be spoil. The water is flow from the bush area located in between the newly built Hospital tentera and Blok A car park area (where there is a big Petronas Gas Tank). The situation has been there for more than 4 months. Hope that MP can represent us to channel the situation to the approprite authority and action to rectify be taken as soon as possible. Your kind service for the community is much appreaciated. Thank you and God bless!

  16. no.. i dont think he “walk his talk” i think its a more walk away after talk … “udang di belakang batu” i guess that”s what he is doing .. for sure he has other plans behind the sweet talk … eg still he will put his cronies in …

  17. You can hear him doing all the talks. Nothing happened. His head is empty. He rely whole sale on the 4th floor boys like Vincent Lim, Kamal and others. Most probably he didn’t know what reform he was announcing. He just read them and he can last a few more weeks. After the reform has passed its expiry date then the 4th floor boys will start another reform and he will last a few more weeks.So we, the rakyat, must go all oput to get him out. Whenever we have the opportunity we must register ourt disapproval. If we have the chancve to vote just vote against BN until they realised that the rakyat have had enough of BN under Pak Lah, SIl and cronies.The 43thj floor boys are running the government not him.

  18. As long as Pak Lah stops sleeping, it is in itself a major reform! Forget about Pak Lah, he is just useless. He can only talk.

  19. The announcements sound good. But I’m numbed from all the lies already. Lame duck is lame duck- he can’t do it then- and I think he can’t do it now. Not enough time.The answer to the MP’s question is ‘yes’ of course but I don’t think he can do it.

  20. You have to look at the timing of the reform; why not immediately after GE 2004 but after a host of mismanagement and GE 2008?Badawi does not have a convincing track record and one might suspect he has to ovecome hindrances unseen by the public.Is he trying to do this to gather public support as dissenting voices within his own political domain is gathering pace.His proposed reforms still fall short of full reform. ACA still reports to him and there is no investigation to the 1988 incident.He is just buying time, in my opinion. Unless I see some really big fish in prison and highly credible judges differentiating subsequent cases from the likes of Ayer Molek and religious dispute, I have trouble being convinced by a civil servant with a 4 year track record for fast plane, glamour event and shack time.RegardsLee Wee Tak

  21. We had much hope and expectations for him in his first term by giving him a resounding victory in 2004; and looks what happened in the next four years after that. We are extremely disappointed in our choice and the racism and corruption of the wretched BN regime grew worse.Ultimately, in GE2008, we expressed ourselves and the outcome and reality is there for everyone to see. Do not for once think that the ordinary people and voters are damned and stupid.Bodohwi had it coming and he can only have himself to blame for the present debacle he faced. We are not interested in window dressing the long-overdue reforms of the blighted judiciary, the corrupt ACA-AG-EC setup and other vital reforms of the main body politic. Do not pull wool over our eyes any further with sham and superficial changes. Unless the Sleepyhead wake up from his political stupor and lethargic ineptness, he may as well sail into the looming storm awaiting him at the end of the horizons onboard the thirty-million-dollar COBRA SULTAN (bought with sleaze on the sly.How more corrupt does he prefer to be? Good riddance to him. But wait again, people. With Najib onboard at the helm, more C4 production and possession cum distribution is gonna be another nightmare for us. We are doomed with these wretched UMNOputra baboons ruling the roost.

  22. Abdullah’s Second-Chance Reform Drive – Too Little, Too Late & Half Hearted MeasuresBy Anil NettoPENANG – Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi has mounted a rearguard fight to salvage his leadership in the face of a poor electoral showing and formidable challenges to his rule, both from within and outside his United Malays Nasional Organization (UMNO) party.The political opposition made sharp inroads at last month’s general election, winning an unprecedented five state governments, 82 of 222 parliamentary seats and nearly half the popular vote. Opposition leaders now claim that they have lured a clutch of at least 30 parliamentarians from the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition to cross over to their side, which if true would be enough for the opposition to seize federal power.”God willing, we will be there. If not next month, the following month, then if not June or July … on Merdeka [Independence Day on August 31] or Malaysia Day [September 16]. I think we should not go beyond that,” opposition icon Anwar Ibrahim was reported as saying, referring to his prediction that the opposition would be able to form a new government this year.Anwar’s comments have set off a political maelstrom here, sparking a heated debate over whether defections represent a betrayal of voters’ trust, whether the opposition alliance should press on while it has the upper-hand and even whether Anwar’s bold claims are credible.It also raises the political stakes for Abdullah, who is likely soon to be challenged for the presidency of UMNO, the dominant party in the BN. Some of his own party members have pressed him to indicate a “transition” period for handing over power to his deputy and defense minister, Najib Razak. Najib, however, is plagued by his own political troubles and has given little indication to suggest that he favors the kind of political and economic reforms many Malaysians now hope for.Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, a former finance minister who once came close to toppling Mahathir Mohamad as UMNO president back in 1987, is poised to make a bid for the party’s leadership during elections in December. Meanwhile former premier Mahathir has added his own political pressure, saying during an April 18 interview on BBC World’s Hard Talk that, “[Abdullah] must go now because it will take time to revive the party for the next election.”Faced with such criticisms, Abdullah is bidding to win back lost ground and implement some of the original reform promises that catapulted him to power at the 2004 general elections. At those polls, soon after taking over UMNO’s leadership reins from Mahathir, Abdullah led the BN to a landslide victory, winning 91% of parliament’s seats.Some of those avowed reforms, including a new commitment to tackle corruption and abuse of power, were widely seen as a response to public demands made, sometimes on the streets through protest movements, during the turbulent final years of Mahathir’s 22-year authoritarian reign.Yet disenchantment over Abdullah’s perceived unfulfilled promises, along with mounting economic difficulties for poor communities and perceptions of unmitigated official corruption, were seen by pundits as the major reasons for the BN’s relatively poor performance at last month

  23. Yes and Yes.On a different note, the immediate format of your blog was more beautiful than the current one.

  24. Yes, absolutely! But so far I have only seen discriminatory moves taken by the federal government against the states that voted against them, esp in Penang. It looked more like punishment. There are lots of talk on reforms but those were merely talks, let’s see if he can undo what was institutionalised for the last 50 years…..

  25. Why reform now? Bodohwi no mood for reform before 8th March. Typical “dying” man! When a person is about to “die” politically he will do everything to save his family, SIL and his cronies. He thought that he could save them by his stupid reform gesture. No body believe him.It was for htis reason that Bodohwi had to make use of Ambiga and her cronies in the Bar COuncil to organise a dinner platform for him and the government used rakyat monies to pay for the dinners by the lawyers. Bodohwi will do everything to save himself.WHY MUST THE RKAYAT PAY FOR THE DINNER ENJOYED BY LAWYERS TO SAVE THE LAME BELEAGURED PM. If this was not abuse of power what is?

  27. Reform what? He should start to reform his family and cronies. When he is koyak that will be the begining of REFORM!

  28. aiyah… asking the obvious isn’t it? i think the concern is IF he can reform, not how soon it should be done. looking at all the kerfuffel taking place since elections, the only solution lies in lobotomy!
