若霹雳民联执政,每年制度化拨款1500万给非回教事务

民主行动党木威区国会议员拿督倪可汉表示,霹雳州民联的2013年替代财政预算案中,将制度化拨款1500万令吉予非回教事务,公平合理对待非回教的宗教需求。

倪可汉指出,一直以来非回教的宗教组织如华人庙宇、印度神庙、基督教会等等都无法获得政府在拨款方面的公平对待,只能通过代议士征求象征式拨款,理事会往往都需要继续向大众筹款。

他说,有鉴于此,在2008年民联执政霹雳州时,特别通过设立非回教事务委员会以制度化拨款协助非回教的宗教组织发展,并且特别拨出200万令吉作为拨款数额。随后在2009年政权被夺后,这个委员会就被国阵政府冻结,经过民联不断抗议施压后,终于又再重新运作,并且增加拨款数额。

倪可汉是在今日出席班台菜园金山济公活佛坛开幕仪式致词时这么表示。出席者包括金山济公坛理事会主席黎亚偶、副主席薛福成、总务李名扬、副总务黄松荣、副财政石秀枝、拿督倪可汉政治秘书黄渼沄、班台支部主席林宗荣、班台旧街场支部主席林瑞良、许永咏、卢碧心等等。

“在霹雳州民联的2013年替代财政预算案中,不仅维持非回教事务委员会的运作,更把每年的拨款数额增加至1500万令吉,让州内的非回教宗教组织都能够获得公平的对待,回归社会的主流。”

国州议员亲自致电警方却不接也不回,倪可汉反指江作汉言论不负责任

陪同召开记者会前排左起杨祖强,倪可汉和李存孝


木威区国会议员拿督倪可汉今日炮轰警方的查案效率,声称他因为爱大华车祸事件主动联络警方两次不果,警方也没回电给他。对此效率,倪可汉大表不满。


倪可汉今日在行动党实兆远服务中心召开记者会说,车祸发生后,他马上寻找负责处理这宗案件的警官Inspector Asyiq,主动拨打两次电话给他但对方却没接,而且也没回电给他。倪氏也觉得奇怪,警方理应知道车祸发生当天他也在现场,还把车祸现场照片上传至推特(Twitter),遗憾的是事情过了一星期他还是没收到警方的传召。他认为自己已尽了身为国会议员,州议员和马来西亚公民的责任,现在是时候警方主动联络他,他愿意配合警方协助调查。


陆路交通局巡逻车后面没有被撞的痕迹,镜子只是被愤怒的民众所打破


同时,也是实兆远州议员的倪可汉称交通部长拿督斯里江作汉对他的指责是不负责任的。他说,车祸当天他接获消息后第一时间抵达现场。他的推文是根据好多人向他投诉一致的车祸原因即陆路交通局巡逻车刻意越过路界拦截一辆罗里导致严重车祸。加上车祸现场观察所得,陆路交通局车的前方和后方都没有碰撞的痕迹来佐证以上言论,才发出推文。

前方完好无损


倪可汉希望警方可以尽快以专业的态度处理这起案件,若调查结果与事实不符,只会加添人民的怒气,对警方更没有信心。

Media statement about the article of Pisau.net





1. Pisau.net has published an article citing factual corrections, clearing me and my PR colleagues of being involved in any corrupt practice.

2. I urge any other parties who have defamed me to follow suit as
there is still room and time to clear Pakatan Rakyat and my name.

3. I hereby extend an olive branch to Pisau.net to redeem himself by
fully meeting my demands, so for the damage he has caused Pakatan Rakyat and myself can be mitigated.

4. Pisau.net must, for the sake of the people, free himself of UMNO/BN crutches to ensure the people of Perak are not going to continue being deceived by the wrongful rule of UMNO/BN.

__________________________________________________________



The blogger who administers the website pisau.net who previously defamed,Tok Guru Nik Aziz, Dato' Sri Nizar, YB Nga Kor Ming and myself through wild and baseless accusations, has partially heeded to the conditions outlined in my letter of demand, through posting an article of 'factual correction' titled

'Pembetulan Fakta Tanah Ngeh dan Nga Di Kelantan.'

Pisau mendapati berlaku percanggahan fakta yang tidak tepat yang diperolehi dari sumber sebelum ini dan berasa bertanggungjawab untuk memperbetulkan demi kebenaran.

The admittance by the blogger that his previous article being factually
incorrect, is yet another piece of evidence that the allegations thrown at myself and my Pakatan Rakyat colleagues are nothing but cheap, irresponsible and repulsive political potshots. This also goes to show that my name is cleared of the previous accusations peddled by Pisau.net.

I hereby, also urge all others who have defamed me to step forward and follow what has been done Pisau.net, to clear my name and free Pakatan Rakyat from the various ridiculous, untrue and slanderous defamations.

Despite the website of Pisau.net being currently inaccessible, rendering the said article to be equally inaccessible, I appreciate the article as a response to my letter of demand. I can only assume that an interested third party whose interest is to continue hoodwinking the public is behind the locking down of Pisau.net.

The above mentioned article also further confirms our previous stand that BN, Zambry and his EXCOs are at such dire desperation, to the extent that blatantly lying in the state assembly has become the only strategy they could come up with, to divert the public's attention from the real scandals perpetrated by themselves.

I feel it important to reiterate some of the key reasons behind my sending of a letter of demand, and consideration to file a defamation suit against Pisau.net.

* As state Chairman of DAP Perak; one third of the three partied coalition of Perak's government in waiting, any form of tarnishing of my name will negatively impact the people's opinion of Pakatan Rakyat Perak as a whole.

* My own personal integrity as a politician and individual, which has been built over the years through my service to the Perakian people and my contribution to our nation building agenda, is at stake if the likes of Pisau.net is allowed to continue their dissemination of falsehoods and blatant lies.

* To safeguard the prospect of a real change for Perakians; to ensure the power of the Perakians is returned to the Perakians, and to restore democracy to our beloved silver state after BN's unlawful power grab in 2009, I feel it essential Pisau.net is called to task to face the responsibility of it's actions.

In my letter of demand to the administrator of Pisau.net, I stipulated that within seven days upon receipt of the said letter he shall -

(i) publish a fullscreen article in the Blog; and

(ii) make a public statement with prominence within the first 5 pages in "Berita Harian", "The New Straits Times", "New Sunday Times", "The Star" and "Sin Chew Daily" ("Newspapers")

- wherein he shall -

(1) completely, unconditionally and irrevocably Withdraw the Article and/or Statements; and

(2) tender an unconditional apology to me;

He shall give me his written assurance and undertaking that he shall not repeat, publish and cause to be repeated and published in any form -

(i) the Article and/or Statements; and

(ii) Any statement of similar meaning, nature and/or effect as that of the Article and/or Statements; and he shall pay to me a proper and suitable sum of damages for the injury to my reputation and loss which I have suffered and continue to suffer.

I welcome this first move to meet my demands yet, I must stress that the article on its own, is far from sufficient action for me to stop the defamation suit that I have planned to file. The above referred article is but one condition out of the several in which I have stipulated, and I believe nothing short of the full list of demands is sufficient to mitigate the damage his irresponsibility has caused.

As a Christian who is taught to forgive, I am now extending for one last time, an olive branch to Pisau.net and all others who have defamed me to right the wrongs that they have done, and to satisfy all that is listed in my letter of demand. It is clear to me, through the language of the above-referred article of correction, that he was likely to be misled by his sources and commissioners, much like most BN cybertroopers.

I hereby urge all others who have defamed me to step forward and follow what has been done Pisau.net, to clear my name and free Pakatan Rakyat from the various ridiculous, untrue and slanderous defamations.

Though it doesn't make his actions any less irresponsible, nor does it make his article any less damaging, it gives me hope that this misdirected soul may simply just be misled by his scheming BN masters.

It is also clear, that BN and Zambry are running out of time, ideas and political capital, as a result of Najib's cowardice refusal to call for the dissolution of Parliament, pressing the former against the wall clutching at straws. Desperate men are borne of desperate times, desperate hearts call for desperate crimes. It is now clearer than ever that BN would now stop at nothing, including committing to heinous act of defaming their opponents with totally fabricated lies, in order to hang on to power.

I hereby stand firm on my demands, with a measure of humility in urging Pisau.net to reach out to my extended olive brand, and do what is needed as stipulated in my letter of demand and above. I urge him to do so for the sake of his own dignity, as well as for the Perakian people. The Perakian
must no longer be oppressed by the wrongful rule of UMNO/BN as another article to prop up their lies and to cover up their sins, is another article denying the People of Perak of a fair, clean and just government.

Finally, I repeat my call in the state assembly, as well as press statements and conferences, for Zambry to answer the land scandals I exposed that started this debacle off in the first place.

What is there hiding in the BN political closet with the disputed land approvals to BN cronies that is so scandalous, that Zambry had to resort to defamation and disgracing the sanctity of the state assembly in order to cover up?

Freedom of press but not the freedom to spread falsehood


NGEH KOO HAM IS FOR FREEDOM OF PRESS BUT NOT THE FREEDOM TO SPREAD FALSEHOOD. NGEH TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST NEW SUNDAY TIMES AND REPORTER FOR REPORTING FALSE NEWS.

I have today instructed my lawyers to take legal action against Sylvia Looi Lee Phing and the News Sunday Times as no apology or correction was forthcoming from them with regard to a defamatory article titled ‘DAP is danger of losing Beruas’ written by Slyvia Looi and published by the New Sunday Times on 25/11/2012.

The said article contain many falsehoods which include the following:-

(i)                 I hardly show up in my Beruas Constituency (I stay in the Beruas Constituency and am in the Constituency almost everyday).

(ii)               I was chased away by villagers when I visited an India Estate.

(iii)             I do not attend religious events organized by temples.

The said article greatly damages my reputation as the Member of Parliament for Beruas.

They have presented me as a irresponsible Member of Parliament who does not visit my Parliamentary Constituency, does not care for my constituents and that I am a religious bigot.

I have lodged a police report against them on 20the December 2012 as they have committed an offence under Section 8A (Offence to publish false news) of the Printing Presses and Publication Act 1984 and Section 499 (Criminal Defamation) of the Penal Code.

Section 8A of the PPPA 1984 requires that the writer and the New Sunday Times to take reasonable measures to verify the truth before writing the said article.

I am in full support of press freedom but not the freedom to report false news. Media has the responsibility take reasonable measures to verify the truth of a matter before publishing it as it will cause great damage to the person(s) who is/are wrongly accused.

I felt duty bound to lodge the above said report and to take legal action against Sylvia Looi and the New Sunday Times to ensure that the public is fed with truth and not falsehood.

Dated this 16th  day of   January 2013.

非回教事务委员会需制度化拨款让人民受惠






民主行动党木威区国会议员件兼实兆远区州议员拿督倪可汉表示,民联执政时期设立的非回教事务委员会获得继续操作,并且持续制度化拨款,人民才会获得最大的回馈。

倪可汉表示,在2008年执政霹雳州开始,民联就正式设立非回教事务委员会,纳入政府行政体系,以便能在各方面更好地协助非回教事务的发展,尤其是在州财政预算案中,纳入非回教事务的常年拨款,以期能够将拨款制度化。


倪可汉(前排左三)移交5千令吉捐款于慕努沙米,左2为西华古玛;右起为黄渼沄、黄琳惠


捐献5000令吉充作兴都庙重建计划经费

倪可汉是在日前一项捐款移交仪式上发表上述谈话。该移交项目为民主行动党捐献5000令吉给爱大华19碑斯里马哈马利亚曼兴都庙重建计划。出席者包括端洛区州议员西华古玛、倪可汉政治秘书黄渼沄、黄琳惠、兴都庙重建委员会主席慕努沙米、行动党爱大华支部主席张友强、回教党代表等。

他说,一直以来,除了回教有特定的机构和部门管理,享有固定的拨款,其他的宗教包括佛教、基督教、兴都教等等都没有获得同等对待,在有需要建庙或举办活动时,都只能外出筹款而鲜少有来自政府的协助。

“霹雳州国阵政府延续民联设立的非回教事务委员会,并且增加拨款数额,证明了民联以民为本的精神获得国阵支持。不过我们希望国阵政府能够将该笔拨款用在正确的用途,真正帮助人民,而避免人民求助无门,申请无下文的事件一直重演。”

不满警方低效率连人民都不如,倪可汉希望警方自我检讨提升效率‏



 
倪可汉第一时间抵达医院慰问死者家属倪为中


(实兆远 8日讯) 州议员不满当地警方对罪案的低效率,促请警方加以改善破案能力。


实兆远州议员拿督倪可汉今日连同红土坎行动党联委会领袖一起到医院慰问昨天发生在甘文阁新村的骇人双尸命案受害者倪维忠和艾玛丽达的家属,有感曼绒县最近发生很多命案,罪案率飙升,但警方破案效率差强人意,令他非常失望。


他说,政府时常要人民与警方合作,一起来防止罪案发生,由人民发起的自愿警卫团和自救协会在全国快速成立。单单在曼绒县,由当地居民成立的甘文阁志愿警卫团和曼绒治安自救会总人数有1400位成员。他们只是普通的人民,不像警方受过专业的训练,还愿意自掏腰包购买无线对讲机交换讯息一起对抗罪案。当罪案发生时,最快抵达现场的往往是警卫团和自救会成员,警方只是在他们成功抓到罪犯后姗姗来迟。


倪氏说,警方应该对如此效率感到羞耻!警队理应检讨为何罪案发生时,效率远远不如人民组成的警卫团和自救会成员。更何况警方受过专业的训练,法律上允许他们持有武器对付罪犯。但令人失望的是,警方的迟钝反应显示出他们的关键绩效指标(KPI)不及格。他呼吁警方应该多多巡逻,在人民报警后以最快的速度抵达现场,这样才会恢复人民对警方的信心。



倪可汉把500令吉交给死者家属以表慰问

阳光计划捐助500令吉给死者遗孀


慰问死者家属后,红土坎联委会决定在阳光计划下捐出500令吉给死者家属,并由州议员拿督倪可汉转交给死者弟弟Thulasi Rajan和家人充当帛金。倪可汉希望家属尽快可以从伤痛中走出来,同时也促请警方尽快破案,把这案件的杀手绳之以法,要不然这样残忍的杀手继续逍遥法外对人民的安全是种威胁。
