MACC to act on the bribing force by the Federal Government
I refer to PN Information Chief Dato’ Seri Mohamad Azmin Ali also a senior Minister in the PN Government who said that “ the people of Sabah should choose a state Government that is aligned with the Perikatan National (PN) Federal Government for better coordination of development in Sabah” He also said that “ Relationship between the State and Federal Government is vital in ensuring funding”. (DE front page 9th August 2020).
Are not such statements really uncalled for in a socalled a Parliamentary Democracy especially in Malaysia when Sabah and Sarawak apart from Singapore (left 1965) formed Malaysia under MA63?
It was supposed to be for Sabah as one in three since 1965 and yet everything has turned against the Bornean States as modified illegally by an amended clause in the Federal Constitution in 1976 to justify all financial allocation for the 13 states in Malaysia instead of 3 portions. My book “Sabah Wealth – image of woods power” 2004 ISBN: 983-2653-08-8 has identified the official ‘thievery’ piling to heaven occurring in Sabah in the national context.
Are not such statements as seditious and offensive when they are raised by a senior Federal Minister as we are heading to a snap General Elections in Sabah and even possibly a national General Election soon?
Such uncalled for statements are obvious that it is “bribing” with the force of making voters to be enticed with hidden agenda to vote in a “backdoor” Government for continued backwardness since March 2020 and in such process legitimised a departure of the mandate of GE14, when BN was voted out after 6 decades and now back in PN federal Governments with everything smelling a rat in the year of rat year 2020.
I hope MACC would act on such offensive “bribing” statements on the funding sector as the culture of corruption and bribes cannot go on in proper nation building.
I have also been talking of the Special Recovery Exercise (SRE) and urged the Federal and Sabah State Governments (already done) to proceed with SRE whereby many billions of Ringgit can be recovered. Since 2019 it has come to my knowledge and I have identified that there is a loophole in the practice of the Federal departments in the treatment and collection of revenue resulting in much short fall of revenue for decades and the shortfall thereof can be in many billions of Ringgit Malaysia dependent on how far back we are prepared to re-open all the files of business companies. The amount of shortfalls can include substantial penalties for such offences wherever they may arise. Lets this be my birthday gift with an Intellectual Property rights for me in 2020.
If my groups of candidates including myself for GE14 (sabah) now State Government dissolved use this SRE with substantial revenue for Sabah as a platform to attract support with promise of funds to come, it would be alright and the authorities concerned would not take offence on it like what Azmin had said on funding from the Federal Government.
We have seen how Federal Government has “rewarded” Sabah and Sarawak as partners in MA63 with meagre fund for almost 6 decades of sort of relegated to slavery status. So many national General Elections in 14 Malaysian editions have not changed the financial scenario better for Sabah.
So Azmin, why now we need to vote in PN in Sabah to ensure funding? This is definitely inappropriate as it would be same treatment for Sabah in previous decades by BN Federal government. We are now told by Tengku Razleigh that substantial fund from Petronas and oil revenue from Sabah and Sarawak had been diverted to boost the coffer of UMNO. Please let us know in the new General elections that this status would be changed and that all deserving political parties can have fund from Petronas to avoid “frogging” as former Election Commission chairman and Election Reform Committee has recently mentioned that elected representatives “frogged” for funding in the Government (DE 13/8/2020).
Azmin, instead of just forcing/bribing voters to vote for PN as Federal Government and Sabah State Government, let’s have this SPAP platform for the voters to decide in Sabah as follows:-
1. Recover or restore our rights immediately in MA63 and all relevant matters thereof including massive financial losses and misappropriation as in 40% of revenue derived from Sabah and remove Project IC.
2. Restore and recover whatever losses in our natural habitat especially our fossil fuel of accumulated amount of many hundreds of billions ringgit since 1976 and our degraded environment in the forests and the towns for poor maintenance etc
3. Reversal of very poor basic infrastructures and essential amenities despite
a very rich state once
4. Revitalise the degradation in society due to uncalled for race, religion not represented in the Sabah society by bias and unjustified approach of integration or assimilation including poor education system
5. Consensus for any major changes must be obtained from the people and no lopsided deals be perpetrated and Sabah interests must be given proper deliberation.
Would PN recognise the above platform in GE14 (Sabah) rather than doing another regressive act in parliament by codify the report by parliament committee on MA63 as official secret act ?
Lets the people and voters exercise the sacred rights in voting in the best caring and just Government for a real new beginning that can fulfil the platform known as SPAP for Sabah Practical Actions Platform to set the captives for decades free .
