Mengapa DAP Tak Pijak Gambar Anwar - Penganjur 16 September 2008

Mahukah DAP pijak gambar Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim yang jadi tukang canang ‘lompat parti 16 September'?

Jawabnya tentu sekali tidak. Sebabnya semua sedia maklum – ia untuk kepentingan politik bersama.

Rabu Setiausaha DAP Perak, Nga Kor Ming mengadakan sidang akhbar di bangunan parlimen untuk memohon maaf kepada rakyat Malaysia yang tersinggung dengan perbuatan beberapa pemimpin parti itu memijak poster wajah tiga anggota Bebas Dewan Undangan Negeri Perak semasa konvensyen parti itu di Ipoh Ahad lalu.

Kor Ming yang juga Ahli Parlimen Taiping terpaksa memohon maaf bagi pihak DAP setelah tindak tanduk mereka memijak gambar Hee Yit Fong (Jelapang), Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi (Behrang) dan Mohd Osman Jailu (Changkat Jering dikecam hebat berbagai pihak termasuk oleh para Ahli Parlimen PKR.

Beliau memberi alasan perbuatan memijak itu bertujuan menunjukkan rasa keji terhadap tiga ADUN Perak itu kerana berpaling tadah daripada prinsip demokrasi, kawasan Parlimen mereka serta parti sehingga menyebabkan kejatuhan kerajaan pembangkang.

Kor Ming tegas berkata parti itu menentang budaya 'lompat parti'.

Ramai yang bertanya bagaimana agaknya bentuk kenyataan Setiausaha DAP Perak itu misalnya jika gerakan 16 September Anwar menjadi kenyataan dimana pakatan pembangkang menguasai kerajaan pusat kerana tindakan melompat para Ahli Parlimen BN.

Jawabnya seribu satu macam alasan akan diberi untuk ‘ menghalalkannya’.

Makanya memang menarik untuk mendengar Kor Ming mendakwa kesediaan memohon maaf itu kerana DAP adalah parti yang berbudi bahasa, dan tidak bertoleransi kepada pengkhianat rakyat.

''Ini adalah budaya yang tidak sihat dan kita 100 peratus tidak bersetuju kerana kita berpegang teguh kepada prinsip parti,'' katanya.

Nga Kor Ming berharap melalui kenyataan minta maaf itu isu pijak gambar itu akan dapat diselesaikan secepat mungkin.

''Kita manusia kadang-kadang ada buat silap, tetapi kita memohon maaf kepada rakyat Malaysia yang tersinggung perasaan," katanya.-2/12/2009

Stepping On Photos An Uncultured Act : Rais

2009-12-01 

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 1 (Bernama) -- Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim today described as uncultured and disrespectful of individual rights and democracy the action of DAP leaders stepping on a poster bearing the facial images of three former Pakatan opposition assemblymen now friendly to the Barisan Nasional (BN).
He said their action was not at all synonymous with Malaysian society or the principles of the Rukunegara (National Ideology) or the Federal Constitution.
The action of those in the DAP who stepped on the photographs of their former colleagues was totally uncultured and demeaning, he told reporters after launching a book, "Kebudayaan Malaysia: Sebuah Pengenalan" (Malaysian Culture: An Introduction), at the Craft Complex, here.
The poster bearing the facial images of Hee Yit Fong (Jelapang), Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi (Behrang) and Mohd Osman Jailu (Changkat Jering) was placed at the entrance to the convention hall where the Perak DAP held its annual convention yesterday, and delegates had to step on the poster to get to the meeting.
"This goes to show that politics is above everything else (for the DAP leaders and delegates) and they do not have any humanitarian feelings or respect for individuals and their democratic rights," Dr Rais said.
He said that if the DAP appreciated democratic values, it should accept the fact that the three assemblymen left their parties on the principles of their struggle.
"Why step on their photographs when entering the hall? The three of them can respond, if they want to, by placing the photographs of (DAP parliamentary leader) Lim Kit Siang along with his colleagues in the Pakatan opposition and stepping on them. How would that feel?" he said.
Dr Rais said acts depicting shallow thinking and ill-mannered politics such as this were unacceptable.
