    Mahathir ‘Iri Hati’ Dengan Kerajaan Pimpinan Najib Yang Kian Rapat Dengan China

    Komen terbaru Dr Mahathir Mohamad terhadap kerajaan Malaysia adalah kerana beliau cemburu dengan keupayaan Perdana Menteri Najib Razak menarik pelaburan bernilai berbilion dolar dengan China, kata Menteri Pelancongan dan Kebudayaan Nazri Aziz hari ini (3 Nov).

    Encik Nazri menyifatkan komen mantan perdana menteri itu sebagai iri hati kerana sepanjang 22 tahun beliau berkhidmat sebagai perdana menteri Dr Mahathir gagal meraih pencapaian sedemikian.

    “Saya rasa Dr Mahathir sedang memikirkan waktu beliau menjadi PM atau menteri. Pada masa itu China adalah sebuah negara komunis tetapi China kini sudah berubah.”

    “China sekarang berbeza daripada yang dulu. Beliau cemburu, saya rasa. Beliau tidak suka perkara ini sebab itu beliau masih berkata tentang keyakinan pelabur yang konon-kononnya sudah merosot dan kami akan menjadi bankrap,” kata Encik Nazri kepada para wartawan di lobi Parlimen.

    Menurut Encik Nazri, ia bukan mudah untuk mendapatkan pelaburan bernilai hampir RM144 bilion (S$48 bilion), walaupun dari sebuah negara seperti China.

    “Apabila China mahu melabur sebanyak itu di Malaysia, (ia) menunjukkan bahawa China yakin (dengan) bagaimana PM mentadbir negara,” kata Encik Nazri.

  • Najib Razak: Islam Doesn’t Allow Alliance With Anti-Islamic Groups, Even For ‘Noble’ Causes

    Najib Razak: Islam Doesn’t Allow Alliance With Anti-Islamic Groups, Even For ‘Noble’ Causes

    PUTRAJAYA, March 21 — Islam frowns on Muslims who will ally themselves with their religion’s critics to achieve their goals no matter how “noble”, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said today.

    He said that the means to achieve a noble aim must be equally noble.

    “That means, Islam not only requires that a purpose must be noble, but the method to achieve the purpose must also be correct and noble.

    “For example, if we have a good objective or purpose, but we collaborate with those who are anti-Islam or uneasy with Islam, that means that method is not correct and forbidden by Islam,” he said in a speech when launching the 59th national recital of the al-Quran here.

    He did not give further examples to illustrate his point.

    Earlier, he urged Muslims to be broad-minded when faced with differences of opinion.

    “Don’t because of small matters or contentious issues, or being too obsessed with groups or a leader, until we quarrel, leading to enmity, hatred or casting aspersions or inappropriate labels by a Muslim against other fellow Muslims.

    “In other words, Islam allows differences in opinion, the voicing of views and objections, but it should be courteous and should be consistent,” he said.

    Earlier, he had also stressed the importance of unity within the Muslim community, after quoting a verse in the Quran.

    “This verse clearly shows the issue of unity is not a choice, but an obligation to Muslims. This is the command of Allah to us,” he said, before going on to say that Malaysia was lucky as it was an Islamic country based on Sunni Islam.

  • Malaysian PM Najib Razak Suffering From E.Coli Infection After Visit To Flooded Areas

    Malaysian PM Najib Razak Suffering From E.Coli Infection After Visit To Flooded Areas

    A tour of duty in areas affected by Malaysia’s worst floods in decades has left Prime Minister Najib Razak fighting an Escherichia coli (E.coli) infection, believed to be food poisoning, as the country continues to reel from the aftermath of the disaster now estimated to have caused billions of ringgit in damage.

    A tweet from the Prime Minister’s Office said: “Prime Minister @NajibRazak was infected by E.coli during his visit to flood-affected areas. Doctors have advised him to rest. He will return to his duties as soon as possible.”

    Mr Najib’s own Twitter posting said he would be monitoring events from home.

    E.coli is a bacteria widely found in the human intestine. Certain strains can cause mild-to-severe food poisoning symptoms. Infection can happen when water or food contaminated by human or animal faeces is consumed. Most types of E. coli are harmless but some can cause diarrhoea. In its worst type, it can cause kidney failure and even death, with children the most vulnerable.

    Mr Najib had just returned from Bangkok where he met Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chanocha on Saturday to thank him for Thailand’s contributions during the floods.

    The Prime Minister came under fire when he was on holiday in Hawaii as floodwaters were rising on Dec 27. He cut short the trip following widespread criticism on social media over pictures of him playing golf with United States President Barack Obama.

    Immediately after his return, Mr Najib made several trip to areas devastated by the floods, including Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang and Perak, to lead the national flood response. He ordered all ministers on holiday to return immediately to deal with the crisis. “This decision was made so that they could work to assist in the flood rescue and relief operations,” said Mr Najib.

    Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said the government would also have to face the daunting task of tackling the after-effects of the flood, which he described as “maha hebat” or very great.

    “I believe that the damage will cost billions of ringgit. It is difficult for us to calculate,” Mr Muhyiddin said during an event yesterday to flag off the Prime Minister’s Department’s flood volunteers convoy. This figure has been revised upwards. Earlier, the east coast state flood disaster committee estimated losses of about RM200 million (S$75.5 million).

    As at 12pm yesterday, the number of flood evacuees dropped to 45,033 in Kelantan, Pahang, Perak and Johor after surging to above 200,000 last week. Fourteen flood-related deaths were recorded in Kelantan, four in Pahang and three in Terengganu to date, data from the National Security Council website showed.
