Kamikaze: Dr Mahathir tekad 'telanjangkan' perasuah Umno

KL: Mantan perdana menteri Malaysia, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, berkata beliau akan memuktamadkan senarai nama mereka yang mengamalkan politik wang dalam Umno sebaik sahaja beliau pasti ada bukti mencukupi untuk menyokong dakwaannya, menurut satu laporan akhbar tempatan.

'Saya harus berasa pasti sebelum saya memasukkan senarai nama itu.

Jika saya mempunyai bukti dan Umno tidak mengambil sebarang tindakan, maka saya akan memasukkan senarai itu.

Saya berharap lembaga disipilin (parti) itu akan bertindak terhadapnya dalam masa dua minggu,' kata Dr Mahathir, sebagaimana dipetik akhbar The New Straits Times (NST) semalam.

Baru-baru ini, Dr Mahathir dilaporkan sebagai berkata semua laporan yang diterima beliau mengenai politik wang dalam Umno akan diserahkan kepada lembaga disiplin parti itu untuk tindakan lanjut.

Beliau juga merancang untuk menyerahkan laporan-laporan itu kepada Badan Pencegah Rasuah (BPR).

Jika kedua-dua wadah itu gagal menghasilkan sebarang keputusan, beliau akan mendedahkan nama-nama mereka yang terbabit bersama laporan-laporannya dalam laman blog beliau, kata Dr Mahathir.

Beliau berkata satu tindakan berani perlu dilakukan bagi memulihkan semula imej dan kedudukan Umno, yang semakin tercemar oleh politik wang yang merebak.

Dalam laporan-laporan bahawa amalan rasuah pernah berleluasa semasa beliau menjadi perdana menteri, Dr Mahathir berkata beliau selalu mengakuinya tetapi ia 'tetapi tidak pada skala yang anda lihat sekarang'.

Malah, dalam tulisan terbaru beliau dalam laman blognya, www.chedet.com, yang disiarkan lewat kelmarin, Dr Mahathir meramalkan Umno akan kecundang dalam pilihan raya umum Malaysia ke-13 angkara politik wang yang berleluasa dalam parti itu.

'Dahulu rakyat/pengundi tidak anggap Umno sebagai parti pimpinan perasuah seperti hari ini. Kerana tidak suka pada kepimpinan Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, BN (Barisan Nasional) sudah ditolak di lima buah negeri dan sebuah Wilayah Persekutuan.

'Hari ini bukan Presiden sahaja yang dianggap tidak layak, tetapi seluruh kepimpinan Umno tidak disukai dan tidak dianggap layak memimpin negara kerana pencalonan mereka adalah hasil sogokan oleh mereka,' kata beliau dalam tulisan blognya bertajuk Rasuah dan Keazaman Politik.

'Memilih mereka bermakna memilih perasuah untuk mendirikan kerajaan. Masyarakat yang mana yang mahu terima kerajaan perasuah? Ramalan saya ialah UMNO akan kalah teruk pada pilihan raya umum ke-13.

Mendapat sokongan daripada parti (melalui rasuah) tidak akan menjamin kemenangan dalam pilihan raya umum,' katanya lagi.

Obama declares US 'ready to lead'

The first African-American to assume the office said in his inauguration address on Tuesday "all other peoples and governments who are watching" that "America is a friend of each nation ... who seeks a future of peace and dignity". Al Jazeera's Rob Reynolds, reporting from the US capital, said Obama's pledge was something of a rebuke to the outgoing president, George Bush, clearly implying that the US had failed to show leadership in the last few years. The new president also warned the estimated one million people gathered in front of the US Capitol in Washington DC that the country faced many difficult challenges.But he spoke of hope and resolve and urged Americans to usher in a "new era of responsibility"."Today, I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many."They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America: they will be met. We must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and begin again the work of remaking America," he said.

'Mutual respect'

Minutes after taking the oath of presidential office with his hand on a Bible used by Abraham Lincoln, Obama said: "To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect."To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West - know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy."

Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera's senior political analyst, said Obama's speech was aimed at convincing Americans that he will take a different course from Bush. But Robert Fisk, a Beirut-based journalist for the London-based Independent newspaper, said the speech did not highlight any major shift in US strategy."I do not think there was a great difference from the rhetoric of Bush, but we didn't get taken through 9/11 again," he said.Fisk said the speech was being "meagre on the Middle East" as it did not refer to the Palestinian issue."Many people in this region [the Middle East] are going to say 'didn't he see the pictures on TV in the last few days?'."It's the Middle East that will come back again and again and I don't think he chose to address it," he said.Hours after his inauguration, Obama addressed members of the US Congress at a lunch which was overshadowed by the collapse of Edward Kennedy, the Massachusetts senator battling a life-threatening brain tumour.Robert Byrd, 91, a West Virginia Democratic senator, was also taken ill. Both were reported to be in stable condition.Obama, the new commander-in-chief of the US military, later reviewed a grand parade of marching bands and other performers.

Massive support

The Obama motorcade then drove along Washington's Pennsylvania Avenue before the president and his wife, Michelle, got out of their car to make the last stretch of the journey to the White House on foot. The couple was cheered by massive crowds that lined the street several rows deep.Grace Clark, a spectator who had travelled from California, said she had been inspired by Obama's speech."It was a new beginning for me, which I was able to share with my daughter here. It gave me the sense that we all have responsibilities of trying to make changes in the future," she told Al Jazeera.Torrey Pocock, a Republican voter, said he was in Washington to witness a "festival of democracy"."For the country, given its past history [of racism], to put its trust in an African-American president is an incredible thing," he said."This is an opportunity to see a bloodless revolution, an opportunity to completely change regimes."

There are few events in our day to day lives that do not become routines. Whether it is brushing our teeth, putting gas in our cars, or going bowling there exists in our minds a series of predictable steps and specific objects associated with those steps. Often we move through these familiar activities with little notice. However, there are aspects of these routine activities that deserve a second look. A well organized routine can have a powerful effect on a child with severe disabilities. Children with severe disabilites have been shown to benefit from learning through routines.If you consider your child's day, you probably have already established a variety of routines. Think about changing a diaper, eating a meal, bath time, etc. These events happen daily and generally in a predictable or routine way.

WORDS

There are words in life to inspire us,
Words that bring comfort and care;
Encouraging words to a friend
When they're in the depth of despair.

There are words between two lovers
Declaring their love for each other;
But sometimes we speak harsh words
Inflicting pain on another.

Words that are chosen wisely
Which we speak in a gentle tone,
Are those that come from our heart
And with them true kindness is shown

Public Policy?????

What is public policy? my opinion of public policy is first it all, it start from public opinion. To make it easy, we have two groups of people. Each group have own opinion and fight against each other and one group will win while the others will lose. This may take ten continues year for that to happen. Whatever groups win what we called ‘public policy’ or ‘public law’. For Example in America , 1970’s abortions became public policy or public law. But it was fight over each group until one became victor and that’s what we call public law.

Policy also synonym of what we called as a people’s issues. Each country in the world has own definition of public policy. This is also related with what they arguing for. As a Malaysian we are also has voice and right over it, but hurm..........
