Royalti?

Royalti minyak kebiasaannya dibayar oleh kerajaan perekutuan kepada kerajaan negeri jika terdapat minyak di kawasan negeri tersebut. Royalti minyak adalah di bawah budi bicara mutlak kerajaan persekutuan kerana perlembagaan memperuntukkan bahawa sumber galian adalah hak milik kerajaan persekutuan iaitu minyak.

Undang2 juga menetapkan garisan sempadan laut negeri dan persekutuan. Walaupun begitu saya masih berpendapat bahawa kerajaan negeri tidak kira apa2 parti patut dapat royalti minyak ini, dimana ia sepatutnya bukan diberikan kuasa mutlak untuk beri atau tidak oleh kerajaan persekutuan, malah ia patut dijadikan hak rakyat negeri tersebut.

Royalti mesti bagi – sebab?

Kalau kita lihat di Kelsantan dan Terengganu, saya fikir sebaiknya, mereka patut dapat royalti kerana ekonomi di kawasan pantai timur tidaklah seaktif ekonomi di pantai barat, jadi sumber duit cukai untuk kerajaan negeri untuk digunakan untuk rakyat adalah kurang. Oleh yang demikian, bagi saya sepatutnya kalaulah kerajaan persekutuan memahami ini dan bertindak secara munasabah, royalti mesti bagi, tidak boleh refuse.

Doa bala Nik Aziz – boleh jadi?

Baru2 ini Nik Aziz ada doa bencana kepada perdana menteri dan umno jika tak bagi royalti, bagi saya doa ini justified untuk dilakukan, kerana kalaulah najib itu percaya bahawa tuhan itu maha berkuasa maka dia akan beri, melihat kepada keadaan ekonomi pantai timur yang daif dan minyak sebagai salah satu sumber dikala letaknya negeri2 pantaoi timur dikawasan yang kurang strategik ekonomi.

1Malaysia, mesti kasi nampak terlaksana…

Dalam kata yang lain, bagi saya rakyat pantai timur ada hal untuk royalti, kalaulah kita fikir balik, walaupun taraf kemiskinan disana bukanlah yang terendah, suasana hidup menampakkan pembangunan itu tidaklah rancak, kalaulah penbangunan tidak rancak, sudah tentu rakyat tidak dapat menikmati kemajuan yang ada sekarang ini di negeri2 lain. Najib pun sudah datang dengan konsep 1Malaysia, jadi kalaulah ada niat untuk jadi perdana menteri kepada rakyat malaysia, bagilah royalti itu kepada negeri pantai timur, bukti kepada kata2 najib dan komitmen kerajaan persekutuan untuk memperbaiki persepsinya di mata rakyat untuk tujuan pilihanraya.

nk menang kene betul2 kerja dan tindak untuk rakyat…

Asri Ditangkap

Setelah hampir sekian lama saya mengikuti pandangan2 bekas mufti ini berkenaan dengan pandangan dalam agama. Saya amat bersetuju dengan pelbagai pandangan beliau antaranya berkenaan dengan amalan khurafat masyarakat melayu, percampuran budaya melampau dalam hal agama dan juga isu murtad.

Baru2 ini timbul soal bahawa bekas mufti ini dituduh oleh JAIS atas tuduhan memberi ceramah tanpa tauliah. Bagi saya hal ini agak kompleks kerana ia melibatkan soal keyakinan masyarakat terhadap jabatan agama yang melaksanakan penguatkuasaan.

JAIS Dicabar

Bagi saya amatlah penting untuk mesyarakat yakin kepada pihak berkuasa supaya mereka boleh melakukan tugas dengan baik, kalaulah pihak JAIS dicabar, saya dengan ini tidak bersetuju. Walaupun saya membantah tindakan JAIS menahan bekas mufti ini kerana tiada tauliah ajar agama di Selangor, saya berpendapat bahawa cabaran sedemikian tidaklah patut dilakukan secara terbuka, perlu dibawa ke mahkamah dan biarlah mahkamah menentukan apa kata putusnya.

Kesan jika perkara ini dilakukan secara terbuka, bimbangnya akan persepsi masyarakat terhadap JAIS adalah sesuatu yang patut diberi perhatian.

Perlu Tauliah

Nak sebut isu tauliah, saya dalam hal ini setuju dgn pandangan bekas mufti tersebut bahawa JAIS dan YADIM diaudit oleh Jabatan Audit Negara. Dalam hal tuduhan terhadap Asri ini, saya berpendapat bahawa hal ini dilakukan bukan diatas amanah dan tanggungjawab JAIS, tetapi org2 dalam JAIS yang mempunyai masalah personal dengan bekas mufti tersebut.

Apa yang membuatkan saya sampai kepada kesimpulan ini adalah apabila semasa beliau menjadi mufti Perlis, ada larangan atau tidak memberi tauliah untuk mengajar agama di Selangor. Ini jelas menunjukkan bahawa terdapat unsur ketidakadilan apabila mufti sendiri tidak dibenarkan untuk beri ceramah di Selangor, ini bukan sahaja pelik tetapi tidak boleh diterika akal dengan apa logiknya pun.

Isu Sebenar

Saya harap pemahaman saya ini tepat. Baru2 ini Asri ditawar jawatan YADIM oleh kerajaan. Sebagai pemahaman, dibawah YADIM terdapat banyak NGO yang duduk dibawah YADIM, dimana majoriti daripada NGO2 ini adalah dikatakan sebagai golongan kaum tua yang kurang bersetuju dengan pembaharuan amalan beragama yang dibawa oleh Asri.

Persoalan pokok yang dapat saya nyatakan disini, apa akan jadi kepada NGO2 ini apabila Asri jadi yang dipertua YADIM, sudah tentu mereka akan menjadi subjek kepada pendekatan baru oleh Asri dan ini bagi saya mereka tidak akan biarkan berlaku kerana tidak mungkin golongan tua boleh setuju, ini ditunjukkan oleh sejarah Tanah Melayu terhadap perkembangan golongan tua dan muda dalam hal2 agama ini.

Raja Melayu

Hal ehwal agama Islam terletak dibawah kuasa mutlak Sultan2 Melayu, kini sudah ada konflik yang memang nampak golongan agama berpecah, apa akan jadi kepada masyarakat. Disini peranan golongan raja ini patut digunakan.

Raja2 melayu perlu ingat bahawa mereka sudah angkat sumpah nak pertahankan agama Islam, dan sekarang saya amat berpendapat bahawa Raja2 melayu kena main peranan, kalau mereka tidak selesai isu ini, saya tak tau apa mereka nak jawab pada tuhan di akhirat nanti.

Sekian…

I come to write this post because I wish to respond to many criticisms against Niki Aziz over his call for EGM to Kick PAS leaders who wanted to collaborate with UMNO. To me this is very important as UMNO is a party that cannot be trusted at all. Look at the 80’s where PAS was part of UMNO, that PAS made only a little publicity to attract members, then PAS was kicked out of the fold. It is important to stress here that, then PAS was together with BN because, BN was very sick, that they need support from PAS to secure the Malays. When they are in an established position, they will not care anymore about the help that was offered by others.

People criticize Nik Aziz saying that he is old that he is no longer suitable in the party or to be the spiritual leader of the party. Mahathir recently said that he is already nyanyuk or forgetful. I don’t think Mahathir is true in this respect. It is actually Mahathir that is nyanyuk because he forget what UMNO did to PAS and that Nik Aziz remember what was done to PAS, and that is the reason why, it is better that PAS should never anymore secure any form of alliance with the UMNO party as PAS will be at disadvantageous position.

PAS must heed these suggestions:

1. Never join forces with UMNO as many grass-root PAS members do not like it and they may not support PAS anymore in the future due to many reason primarily the nature of UMNO itself and the dark history of diplomacy between these two parties.

2. That if PAS join UMNO, they will betray their own goals and intentions to be an Islamic party in the first place. It is true that 100% Islam is impossible in Malaysia but despite we do not have 100% Islam now, only a little of it, should I say less than 1%, still the practice in many instances is wrong and these wrongfulness must be corrected. If PAS were to join UMNO, they will not have a chance to correct the situation even a little as UMNO will control them to maintain the current status quo of the Malays. If PAS we to remain in Pakatan, despite there are DAP and Keadilan, PAS form a handsome share of the fold and that these two parties cannot disregard their voice just like that as they are badly in need of PAS.

3. Yes, leaders in PAS who have the gut to make PAS join UMNO must be kicked out of the party and they must join UMNO and register their names there. Then these leaders will see the nature of action that they are taking, after all these history, still they are ignorant to what UMNO perceive of PAS. I do not think Hadi is a good president, PAS should have a president like the late Fadhil Noor, they must find one person like this leader, he will make a good leader for PAS.

4. That PAS must pursue to kick these people who supports the combination with UMNO or else the Malays will no more have choices between the lesser of the two evils that they have to take when voting. Malay Malaysian, in mass still beleif in racial party, for PAS to join UMNO it will be detrimental to this choice. PAS is better in all sense, despite Kelantan is not as developed as Selangor, PAS can be considered as successful administrator of Kelantan, despite they receive less money from federal, their people are not the most poorest in the country, compare with a state of the same kind, Terengganu, they have big buildings but the people suffer. PAS has always serve as a good alternative.

Please, I beg for PAS people to insist to deny any motion to allow any form of coalition with UMNO, it is not justified, it is defeating PAS ultimate goals, it is denial of the Malays choices of vote, and finally, for PAS to join UMNO, they are sinful and condemned!

What made me write this post is for me to share the discussion that we had at Pak Li restaurant in Section 7, Shah Alam. Because of the detail of that discussion is so important, it must be stated here, so that all will be able to know what was actually discussed.

I do not know what exactly caused the discussion in the first place but what I can say that it was about the Malays, again. Over there the initial discussion about the Nazi way of how they manage their country, where at the beginning, their leader Hitler, had the ambition of liberating German from the grasp of the Allied Powers, later when he became powerful, merked by the conquest of France, he became dictator. Not to forget, the Holocaust was also covered.

But those are not the main concern of this post. Where in this post I wish to make some suggestions of how the Malays race can be changed, to a progressive one. Here are the points:

1. That Malays in fact control the politics, where such control normally cannot last when money is not in their hands. They are many traits of the Malays that causes them not being able to have more money, this was described by our former premeir, Mahathir, that the Malays at most only work to an extent where it is enough for them to live their daily lives. If I am not mistaken, it was at one of Mahathir’s post concerning the type of voters or close to the post, where he describe, the Malays have the attitude, when everything is enough for them, then they will give it up, he said that this is prevalent in the rural areas, which majority of the Malays come from. He stated that, the BN only need to fulfill these necessities for them to continously secure the vote of the Malay people in the election.

2. The previous point bring us to this conclusion, that Malays are not the type for business, because they lack the gut to take risk, they lack the will to work hard safe only those for their basic necessities, they are to much envious about other Malays especially in business and that they are not supportive of their own race in business because of the majority Malays business attitude. These traits is so entrenched in the Malay society and that these are the attitudes that make them to be the least to benefit in money making business. That is why the Malay associations in business is often a failure and that their association more focused on protecting them not in economically beneficial such as the ’secret societies’ and those of defending their self-defeating culture.

3. The third point is, the Malays have a great misconception of what they should be proud of. One attribute to this point is the Malay word taken to be English word, ‘amok’, meaning a person losing control of their mind and harming other people. The Malays themselves admit that other races cannot challenge them or else they will run amok. Interestingly, most Malays proud of this, which to me is wrong. This is because, when other races are hardworking in comparison with the Malays at large, when these others races label them of being slothful or putting their effort that at the end contributes to their own destruction, they become incited and may run amok for that label and mockery. Isn’t that they are entitled for all those mockery, is it not heir own actions and traits that they are so defending, have made it beyond entitlement for them to be mocked in such way. Ironically they say if anyone dare to make such remarks, they will run amok and implicate others, where actually they are implicating themselves.

4. Point number four, that Malays are just not into striving to be called the knowledgeable race in this country. This is because, they are just not interested in reading. This is true when a survey was conducted, I don’t remenber who made it, by I came across that report in the tele when I was in secondary school, they say Malays if according to their highest population, is actually the lowest in literacy and the societal promotion of reading, this is not just in the Kampongs but also in the cities, where they young generations are, they are just not into bringing themselves into the next level of their life, they just like to remain there, as I stated before, ‘it’s enough for them’.

5. That Malays implement Islam in the wrong way. This is seen through their pessimism towards business and money making. Islam said ‘work as if you will live for another 1000 years and (good deeds – ibadah: p/s I don’t know the right English word here) and that 9/10 of gifts of God are coming from business. Their traits are totally in contravention with this promotion and they say moderate is enough, but they never even realize that the moderate stance promoted by Islam is just as guidelines along you pushing for the worldly and eternal goals. The way islamic law implemented in this country, where only sanctions emphasized unreasonably. Look at how Islam come into the Arabs, step by step, not one at a go. Look at how islam at the early stages of its implementation, that the Prophet PBUH stresses on promoting the goodness rather than the consequence of not following Islam. This is turn caused people to say no to Islam, even the Malays. Please refer to this video, to have a better understanding over one of the example:

Isu Kartika Part 1

Isu Kartika Part 2

I hope that all will realize these mistakes, I am now having in mind to think that Malays become Malay, will only destroy them ironically, so stop being Malay…
