Pakatan Must Be Prepared<\/strong><br \/>The Mentri Besar of the usurper Barisan Nasional Perak state  government, Datuk Seri  Zambry Abdul Kadir has called on Barisan  Nasional component parties to be prepared for snap polls and Barisan  Nasional component parties are openly calling on their members to be  ready for early general elections next year.<\/p>\n<p>DAP and Pakatan Rakyat must be prepared for snap 13th general elections to be held in six months.<\/p>\n<p>In his 18 months as Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak has  launched three major initiatives \u2013 1Malaysia policy; the New Economic  Model and on Tuesday, the RM1.4 trillion Economic Transformation  Programme (ETP) to achieve a high-income economy by 2020.<\/p>\n<p>However,  all these three Najib landmark measures have failed to  take-off successfully as illustrated by the lukewarm response of the  RM1.4 trillion ETP in  the Kuala Lumpur stock market.<\/p>\n<p>The Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI), which closed at 1,469 points  on Monday, lifted by 6.30 points  to 1,475.99 points on Tuesday when  the RM1.4 trillion ETP was unveiled, but by the end of the trading week  on Friday, KLCI had fallen by 24.80 points to 1,451.19 points.<\/p>\n<p>There is just too little public confidence in the ETP after the two Najib initiatives were undermined and attacked.<\/p>\n<p>Najib\u2019s 1Malaysia policy, for instance, has still to be proven to be a  national policy which attracts the full commitment and loyalty of the  Prime Minister\u2019s own Cabinet and Government \u2013 with Deputy Prime Minister  Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin publicly declaring that he is \u201cMalay first,  Malaysian second\u201d while there is only one Cabinet Minister, Datuk Seri  Nazri  Aziz the only Minister in the past 18 months who is prepared to  declare that he is Malaysian first, Malay second, i.e. Malaysian first,  race second.<\/p>\n<p>Najib\u2019s New Economic Model unveiled on March 30 was savagely attacked  to the extent that Najib had to distance himself by claiming that the  NEM is not the Government\u2019s \u201cfinal stand\u201d but merely the \u201ctrial  balloons\u201d of a group of experts from the global market\u2019s perspective!<\/p>\n<p>And in both cases, the troop of nay-sayers was led by none other than  the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad \u2013 who said he did  not understand Najib\u2019s 1Malaysia and warned of awful consequences if the  NEM was implemented.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, Mahathir had racheted up his rhetoric of race and  religion, even warning that the Malays will lose power if Pakatan Rakyat  were to come to power.<\/p>\n<p>This is the height of irresponsibility coming from one who had been  Prime Minister for 22 years and propounded the concept of Bangsa  Malaysia with Vision 2020.<br \/> If Pakatan Rakyat comes to power, it is not the Malays who will lose  power but the Umnoputras while the ordinary Malaysians \u2013 Malays,  Chinese, Indians,Kadazans and Ibans  \u2013 will be empowered.<\/p>\n<p>Mahathir is conducting a most unethical and dishonest campaign to  demonise Mohamad Nizar because he was a popular Perak Mentri Besar of  the year-old Pakatan Rakyat Perak State Government before it was  illegally, unconstitutionally and undemocratically toppled by Najib.<\/p>\n<p>Mahathir accused Nizar as  tool of DAP and even claimed that Nizar\u2019s  PR government was regarded as a Chinese government by the Malaysian  Chinese.<\/p>\n<p>This is completely baseless and groundless as nobody regards the  Pakatan Rakyat Perak State Government of Nizar as a Chinese government \u2013  it was a Malaysian government and regarded as such by all races in the  state.<\/p>\n<p>The way Mahathir is demonising Nizar was the same way he had  demonised the first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman more than 40  years ago, for which Mahathir had to subsequently apologise to Tunku.<\/p>\n<p>As former Prime Minister, Mahathir should stop his irresponsible politicking of race and religion.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Speech by Lim Kit Siang  at the DAP Canning Family Day and Foodfair at Red Crescent Hall, Ipoh on Sunday, 26th September 2010 at 9 am)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211;
