“Kejutan” Kabinet Najib : “Compromised cabinet” dibayangi Mahathirism

Pembentukan kabinet baru pemerintahan Datuk Sri Najib Tun Razak hari ini hanyalah merupakan satu usaha ‘compromise‘ yang tidak menjanjikan apa-apa impak kepada rakyat.

Tidak ada perubahan ketara yang boleh dilihat hasil daripada Kabinet ini. Meskipun 8 Menteri digugurkan, tetapi hanya 6 muka baru yang merangkumi kenaikan pangkat 2 orang Timbalan Menteri sebelum ini. Di samping itu 2 Timbalan Menteri digugurkan, dan 9 muka baru dilantik sebagai Timbalan Menteri.

Kabinet kali ini juga mencipta sejarah apabila menempatkan seramai 12 orang Senator, terbanyak dalam sejarah pembentukan Kabinet Malaysia. Rakyat wajar mempersoalkan apakah Najib sudah kekurangan calon daripada 144 Ahli Parlimen BN, sehingga terpaksa ‘mengimport’ 12 orang melalui ‘pintu Dewan Negara’. Pastinya ini akan mengakibatkan peruntukan dana yang lebih besar untuk membiayai urusan perkhidmatan dan saraan Anggota Pentadbiran Kabinet.

11 Kementerian juga menempatkan seramai 2 Timbalan Menteri bagi setiap Kementerian, menjadikan sejumlah 22 Timbalan Menteri dilantik bagi tujuan tersebut. Apakah rasional Najib menempatkan setiap kementerian sebanyak 2 Timbalan Menteri sedangkan fungsi setiap kementerian tidak meluas.

Ini termasuklah Kementerian Pembangunan Wanita, Keluarga dan Masyarakat yang mana kedua-dua Menteri dan Timbalan Menteri adalah merupakan lantikan Senator, bukan daripada kalangan Ahli Parlimen.

Keputusan Najib yang tidak melantik Ketua Pemuda Umno yang baru dilantik, Khairy Jamaluddin di dalam kabinet beliau bukanlah sesuatu yang menarik untuk diulas. Pun begitu, wajar untuk kita percaya bahawa usaha Najib yang kononnya menugaskan Khairy untuk ‘menarik kembali sokongan golongan muda’ hanyalah satu usaha yang gagal, kerana dalam keadaan Najib sendiri memperlihatkan keengganan beliau mengiktiraf Ketua Pemuda partinya sedangkan dalam masa yang samaKetua sayap Wanita dan Puteri diberikan tempat di dalam kabinet beliau, mana mungkin ada ruang untuk belia kembali menaruh harapan ke atas Umno-BN.

Dr. Mahathir Mohamad juga telah diperlihatkan sebagai Perdana Menteri ‘de facto’ hasil daripada Kabinet ini, melalui perlantikan anak beliau sebagai Timbalan Menteri Perdagangan Antarabangsa & Industri. Apakah kredibiliti yang ada pada batang tubuh Mukhriz berbanding hampir 80 Ahli Parlimen Backbenchers BN yang lain yang melayakkan beliau dilantik sebagai Timbalan Menteri? Yang diperdagangkan beliau hanyalah ‘bin Tun Mahathir’ yang sekaligus mengesahkan kitaran politik feudal Umno akan terus berulang dan berulang.

Fakta-fakta ini hanya membuktikan bahawa Kabinet yang dianggap ‘pasukan baru’ oleh Najib ini hanyalah ‘pasukan compromised cabinet‘ yang langsung tidak mencerminkan aspirasi rakyat seluruhnya.

Murder of ‘Far Eastern Mata Hari’ linked to Malaysia’s PM-in-waiting

Saya menerima emel daripada seorang teman yang menghubungkan saya dengan laporan buletin di dalam talian bernama The Australian. The Australian ini merupakan buletin di dalam talian yang ternama di Australia dan pernah mendapat anugerah online newspaper of the year. Saya yakin berita yang dipaparkan menguatkan lagi keyakinan rakyat kebarangkalian keterlibatan Najib dan Rosmah di dalam skandal pembunuhan wanita mongolia yang tidak bersalah ini.

Berikut adalah laporan yang disiarkan :

Article from: The Australian

A FRENCH arms company is at the centre of a deepening scandal involving the sale of three submarines, the murder of a beautiful Mongolian interpreter and the man most likely to become prime minister of Malaysia next month.

All three have been linked in a sensational sequence of revelations that has convinced many Malaysians that the woman was killed to silence her claim for a share in the rewards of the transaction.

The scandal exploded last week after French newspaper Liberation alleged the submarines deal and the murder of Altantuya Shariibuu, 28, were connected.

A glamorous, cosmopolitan woman, Altantuya grew up in St Petersburg, spoke Russian, Chinese, Korean and English, moved in elite circles and has been dubbed “a Far Eastern Mata Hari”. She became the mistress of a Malaysian political fixer and was allegedly trying to extort money from him at the time of her violent death.

Two members of an elite Malaysian police unit that protects top politicians are on trial in Kuala Lumpur, accused of shooting her in the jungle and then blowing up her body with military explosives. Special Branch officers Azilah Hadri, 32, and Sirul Azhar Umar, 36, could go to the gallows if convicted of abducting and murdering Altantuya on October 19, 2006. A verdict is expected early next month.

Their trial is unfolding as Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak stands on the verge of taking over as premier after a ruling party leadership election, due within days.

Mr Najib was accused in parliament by a young opposition MP, Gobind Singh Deo, of involvement in the murder. Mr Deo was suspended by the speaker for making the remark. Mr Najib has strongly denied any involvement.

Testimony in an earlier court case has established an intimate personal and financial connection between Altantuya and a close aide to Mr Najib, who was defence minister at the time of the submarine deal.

The aide, Abdul Razak Baginda, was acquitted by a court last November of being an accessory in the murder. He has since been working on a doctorate at Trinity College, Oxford.

Mr Baginda admitted Altantuya was his mistress for about a year and prosecutors said she had demanded money from him after their break-up.

Just before her death, she arrived in Kuala Lumpur, accompanied by a Mongolian shaman, who was to put a curse on Mr Baginda if he did not pay up.

Altantuya was dragged away from outside Mr Baginda’s home by two Special Branch officers, but he was acquitted after maintaining that he had never given orders for her to be harmed.

The Liberation expose linking the murder to the shadowy world of arms contracts has embarrassed the French warship firm DCNS. Armaris, a firm now merged with DCNS, sold the three submarines to Malaysia in 2002 for E1 billion.

Attention has centred on why Armaris paid E114 million to a Malaysian company called Perimekar in 2006.

Opposition leaders alleged in parliament that the payment was a “commission” for intermediaries and that Perimekar was secretly owned by Mr Baginda. Mr Najib replied that it was not a “commission” and that Perimekar was a “project services provider”. Liberation alleged Altantuya learned of the payment and demanded $US500,000.

DCNS has refused to comment. It is already the subject of a French judicial investigation into corrupt practices. Last week, efforts to contact Mr Baginda, a self-styled political analyst, at his new home in Oxford were unsuccessful.

Mr Najib has avoided public comment but his wife told Agence France Presse that she was “shocked” by attempts to link her husband to the case.
