巫统大小通吃，马来人一贫如洗 (Umno sapu semua, Malays poor)

巫统大小通吃，马来人一贫如洗 (Umno sapu semua, Malays poor)

现在马来人已经看穿巫统55年来以误导马来社群养肥自己、家属和朋党的真面目。

马来西亚马来商会以及许多非政府组织现在才认清这个问题，的确过迟：罪魁祸首是贪腐又贪得无厌的巫统。

商会会长Syed Ali Alattas 对此表示悲痛。他说，柔佛的马来人是马来西亚最贫穷的。由于数目庞大的外国人（指新加坡人）到柔州来旅居，这里的生活费扶摇直上。

他也指出一个事实，主要是前马来人拥有的依斯干达80%土地现在由外国人拥有。

他说，相比吉兰丹的马来人更富有，因为用同样的令吉购物，在吉兰丹更划算。

在吉兰丹，马来人用RM20万便能买到一栋吃风楼，在柔佛，就非得150万不可。

在过去20年里，数以千英亩的马来祖地被前州务大臣Muhyiddin Yassin 和现在Ghani Othman领导的柔佛政府援引1960年土地征用法令掠夺而去。

只要看看 Tebrau, Pasir Gudang, Danga Bay, Iskandar  和Nusajaya的情况，然后告诉我是多么触目惊心。

而最近从“掠夺”马来土地上获益的是中国的Country Garden (控股)有限公司。

这家公司以RM9亿的价格买下依斯干达金海湾55 英亩的土地供房地产开发。州政府援引法令，只付出每亩64分或者RM153万给主要是马来人的前地主。

现在，当地居民已经付不起RM800,000 或者更高的房屋和公寓的高价。而这些住宅，就建在以前属于马来人的土地上。

事实上，土地掠夺在柔佛已经有20年， 从Muhyiddin和现在的  Ghani 和他的政府开始，他们援引法令征用土地然后转让给朋党供房地产开发。

 

而那个始作俑者就是马哈迪。

 

1991年马哈迪利用各种在国会的压倒性优势，通过了土地修正法案。

1960年土地征用法令的词句经过修改，基本上赋予州政府无可争辩的权力， 用以夺取私人土地供私营公司和个人进行开发用途。被征用来进行公共用途的土地也可以用来进行私人用途。

修正之前，土地只能被征用来进行公共用途或者公共设施如建筑公路、学校、医院，铺设水管和水电站等。

增补“供任何用途，只要在州当局认为有利于马来西亚的经济开发 ”字样之后，没有一块土地是安全的。

“有利于马来西亚的经济开发”的字眼说有多主观就多主观。一块土地，能用来兴建一座冠冕堂皇的五星级酒店，一个娱乐场或者一个高尔夫球场，因为政府认为它将吸引游客，带来外汇，为当地居民制造就业机会，更不必说养肥私营公司，当然它们也得缴税。( 转述自 Thomas Fann http://chuajuimeng123.blogspot.com/2012/10/your-land-is-not-safe-in-malaysia.html)

这便是巫统和马哈迪的杀手锏，导致今天的随处土地掠夺。实际上也造成在马来西亚的一切土地投资都充满风险。

只要您有一块土地，贪婪的巫统朋党便对它虎视眈眈。就是这般如此，习以为常。假借开发名义，（巫统袋袋平安），一方面，您被掠夺殆尽，另一方面，巫统和它的朋党们却钵满盆满，富甲天下。

在柔佛，谁从Ghani的庞大土地征用中获利？

巫统朋党和公司如 UEM，华族头家如Tan Sri Lim Kang Hoo, Tan Sri Danny Tan, Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah 以及 Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar。只有新加坡人和富有的非柔佛人买得起房地产。

由于国阵-巫统急于炫耀，即使外国人也蒙骗我们。

在Nusajaya，305 英亩土地上名为EduCity@Iskandar基础设施和建筑物由 UEM 兴建。University of Newcastle, Raffles University Iskandar, Reading University 以及一家荷兰的 Maritime University 预定就要入伙运作。

外国人获益，这叫投资？这是什么开发计划？

在这些项目中，柔佛人去了哪里？只见外国人和巫统朋党。

Ghani最后一轮的土地掠夺在边佳兰展开。这里，有22,500 英亩的马来土地，包括坟场，被征用来进行 非持续发展的国油的炼油及石油化学综合开发( Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development-Rapid) 项目用途，其其实这个项目只需 大约6,000英亩土地。

数以千计的村民，大部分是马来人，将被强制撤离。

不终止巫统的统治，这种残酷的掠夺行为就不会终止。

柔佛人能在第13届大选崛起，终止巫统的统治。

在最近的一次大会上，马来商会和 NGO这样表示忧虑（用马来语）：

Kedudukan Melayu Johor membimbangkan

Tanah kerajaan diswastakan tanpa mengira harga dan mudaratnya kepada bangsa Melayu serta rakyat Johor keseluruhannya. 

KUALA LUMPUR: Masa depan hak ekuiti masyarakat Melayu Johor kini didakwa semakin merosot dan jurang perbezaan prestasi ekonominya kian membesar akibat lambakan pelabur asing masuk ke negeri itu.

Kebimbangan itu dinyatakan wakil agensi kerajaan, perwakilan Dewan Perniagaan Melayu Malaysia (DPPMM) dan badan bukan kerajaan (NGO) dalam satu resolusi Kongres Ekonomi Melayu Peringkat Zon Selatan.

Presiden DPMM Datuk Syed Ali Alattas ketika membentangkan resolusi yang tercapai pada 6 Januari lalu itu berkata, kongres turut kesal
dengan isu hak milik tanah orang Melayu Johor apabila tanah kerajaan diswastakan tanpa mengira harga dan mudaratnya kepada bangsa Melayu serta rakyat Johor keseluruhannya.

Syed Ali berkata, Keluaran Dalam Negeri Kasar (KDNK) Johor akan ditentukan daripada projek pembangunan Iskandar Malaysia di mana 80 peratus daripadanya dikuasai pelabur asing.

“Projek Iskandar memundur dan memiggirkan orang Melayu dari segi ekonomi sekaligus meningkatkan jurang kemiskinan,” katanya dalam sidang media di pejabatnya di sini hari ini.

Katanya, pendapatan perkapita penduduk Johor juga semakin rendah apabila kebanyakan masyarakat Melayu kini tidak mampu lagi membeli rumah di sekitar kawasan Iskandar.

`Tanah sendiri dimiliki orang asing’

“Bayangkan rumah dengan keluasan 1, 300 kaki persegi kini mencecah RM1juta. Individu yang bergaji RM5,000 pun tak mampu membelinya kerana bank hanya membenarkan pinjaman sehingga RM200,000 sahaja.

“Lebih teruk tanah sendiri dimiliki orang asing…ini situasi merbahaya yang dihadapi penduduk Johor,” katanya.

Koridor pembangunan yang dimiliki Khazanah Nasional Berhad dan terletak di Selatan Johor itu mempunyai keluasan kira-kira 500,000 ekar, kira-kira tiga kali ganda daripada keluasan Singapura.

Sehubungan itu, Kongres itu mencapai satu resolusi mahu mendesak kerajaan memperuntukkan 30 peratus (24,000 ekar) Nusajaya kepada orang Melayu.

Selain itu, kongres turut meminta Jambatan Selat Tebrau yang dikenali sebagai ‘Jambatan Bengkok’ yang terbengkalai diteruskan semula.

“Rugi kalau jambatan yang dibina dengan kos RM700 juta itu terbiar. Kalau tambah modal RM700 juta lagi boleh selesai,” katanya.

Kongres itu juga mengambil ketetapan untuk menggunakan status Melayu, dan bukan lagi Bumiputera bagi mengelakkan daripada penyelewengan dan kekeliruan kepada status ‘Bumiputera’ dimanipulasi oleh pihak lain demi keuntungan pihak tertentu.

China’s Country Garden buying 55 acres in Iskandar for RM900m

PETALING JAYA: Iskandar Waterfront Holdings Sdn Bhd (IWH), which is transforming the coastline of Johor fronting Singapore into a waterfront haven, has seen its land bank swell to over 4,000 acres via a restructuring and land acquisitions.
Of that, about 315 acres are located in Desaru, which is undergoing a massive boost to become a vibrant tourist and lifestyle destination.
Today, one of China's biggest property developers, Country Garden (Holdings) Ltd, will ink an agreement to buy 55 acres of land at Danga Bay for RM900mil from IWH.
“Country Gardens plans to develop a marina and marina club, hotel, serviced apartments, offices and commercial development that will have a gross development value of RM10bil to RM18bil. This project will take several years,'' said IWH executive vice-chairman Tan Sri Lim Kang Hoo.
“We have a lot of interest from local and foreign parties, but this is the fastest deal we have concluded. We only began talking four months ago. Perhaps their decision-making process is a lot faster than many others,” he said.
He added that IWH was in negotiations with several other parties and expected to enter into many more deals to develop its land bank in the coming months.
Country Gardens wants more than the 55 acres it is buying and Lim said “we are looking for suitable sites to offer to them. We'd rather have them develop different parts of Danga Bay instead of just one area. We have 10 different developments at Danga Bay.''
Danga Bay developments will span over 2,000 acres of the total 4,000 acres. It is being transformed into a premier waterfront destination with features such as cruise ship terminal, marina, fisherman's wharf and tower blocks to house commercial offices, hotels, exhibition and convention centres, and residential properties.
Given the different developments, IWH has to ensure that each developer has product differentiation so that demand will always be there and to prevent a glut.
Country Gardens joins several other developers such as Dijaya Corp Bhd, Brunsfield Group, Australia's Walker Group and Singapore's Azea Residences to develop parts of Danga Bay. Normally, IWH enters into joint ventures for all the developments but Lim said it made an exception to sell the land outright to Country Gardens.
Danga Bay is one of the many developments taking shape in Iskandar Malaysia.
After a restructuring exercise early this year which involved the takeover of Tebrau Teguh Bhd, IWH is now 60% owned by Lim's Credence Resources Sdn Bhd and the remaining 40% is held by Johor state investment agency, Kumpulan Prasarana Rakyat Johor.
Hence, IWH had a boost in land acerage. However, Lim said, “we have also been buying land to add to the average. Contrary to market talk, we have bought all the land that we own from the banks via auctions, from individuals and even Danaharta.''
Danga Bay is located on the west side of Johor Baru and Lim said the other parts making the 4,000 were located in the northern part of Johor Baru town, within the town and on the eastern side. The whole city will be linked by trams and MRT while several new highways have already been built.
“And when we sell land, we use the money to buy more land and reclaim more or we also revive abandon projects in the state. All these may cost money but we are doing this to create enough economic activity in the state,'' he said.
All the land will be developed in stages but IWH need investors to undertake the development. IWH will also modernise Johor Baru's central business district to create a more vibrant capital city of the state.
“The entire transformation of Johor Baru will take several years to decades and it would be done gradually to cater to the needs of market demand,'' he added.
On Desaru, he said the plan was to develop resort and lifestyle living accommodation because there would be demand for such facilities when the Pengerang oil and gas facilities take shape. Khazanah Nasional Bhd is also developing part of Desaru into a tourism and theme park centre.
“We will be able to attract expatriates as Khazanah is marketing the development at Desaru. We, the private sector, will not be able to do all that,'' he said, adding that “again, this land in Desaru is something we bought from Danaharta.”
