Be merry but think of Malaysia

Be merry but think of Malaysia
By Chua Jui Meng

AS CHRISTIANS rejoice a blessed Christmas with their fellow Malaysians today, they will also start making their annual resolutions to welcome 2013 next week.
Whatever the vows may be, they are generally for the well being of themselves and their loved ones.
However, I call upon Malaysians to include a resolution to help, either directly or indirectly, steer and enhance the positive socio-economic growth of Malaysia.
Every Malaysian, aged 21 and above, has a very important citizen’s duty to perform this year – to elect the government of their choice once every five years.
Whether you like it or not, politics affect your lives in more ways than you think.
Since gaining Merdeka (Independence) from the British in 1957, we have only experienced the governance of one political coalition – the Umno-led Barisan Nasional (BN) and briefly the Umno-led Alliance Party (Parti Perikatan) from 1957 to 1973.
That’s 55 years of uninterrupted rule by Umno. That’s also a very long time in politics and it is long overdue for Malaysians to seriously look at Umno’s performance for the people and nation, thus far.
A key factor which Malaysians must remember is that Malaysia is a blessed country with vast rich natural resources, including oil and gas.
Next, we must ask and honestly answer the many key questions related to the socio-economic progress of Malaysia and whether BN-Umno’s delivery is acceptable.
Where is our economic standing globally today? What’s the standard of our education and innovativeness in research and inventions?
What’s the level of our freedom of speech and association, the dispensing of justice and human rights in general? Are the competency, accountability, transparency, integrity and honesty of BN-Umno acceptable, to both Malaysians and in the eyes of foreigners whom we want to attract as investors?

Malaysia’s injustice!
 Has the wealth of the country really been filtered down by BN-Umno to lift the standard of living of all Malaysians or has it only benefited its families and cronies?
Make your own honest and informed judgment on all the above crucial questions. Then, make the all important decision when you cast your ballots in the next 13th General Election.
To me, the No.1 question is: Why is the federal government’s debt exceptionally high at more than RM620 billion (including off Budget liabilities or sovereign guarantees for private corporations like the Port Klang Free Zone and government-linked company loans ending 2011).
This means the BN government is operating above its legislated federal debt of 55% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
With new mega projects like the Sungai Buloh-Kajang Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) project and others factored in, you can imagine how much our debts have breached the debt ceiling.
The boss of Malaysia is not the government of the day. The government is elected to serve the people.
The socio-economic welfare of the people and their future is therefore in their hands – the ballots that they cast once every five years.
Here’s wishing Christians a very merry Christmas as they party with their fellow Malaysian brothers and sisters to forge national unity.
And may 2013 be a year of awakening, hope and truly transformation for the progress of all Malaysians and Malaysia.
MAKE IT A YEAR THAT MALAYSIANS RISE AS ONE FOR A PROSPEROUS AND HARMONIOUS NATION.
Is this the type of transformation that Malaysians want?

Reject BN soundly in GE13 or suffer economically



Reject BN soundly in GE13 or suffer economically
By Chua Jui Meng

  MALAYSIANS, especially the rural and urban poor, must reject the super corrupt Umno-led Barisan Nasional (BN) soundly in the 13th General Election (GE13) or be prepared to suffer economically.
It is clear BN-Umno is not changing its corrupt ways and will step up its plundering of the nation’s coffer.
And BN-Umno intends to make the people pay to help sustain the enriching of its families and cronies.
It has little concern for the people’s painful pinch in their pockets and prices of goods and services are set to skyrocket if BN is returned to power after the next general election.
A case in point is the farcical implementation of the Automatic Enforcement System (AES) which it has suspended temporarily due to the peoples’ nationwide outcry and rejection.
For sure, the AES will be enforced if BN-Umno wins another mandate to govern Malaysia.
Which government do you want after GE13?

In fact, BN-Umno has been forced to put on hold the many suspicious and unfriendly “projects” aimed at enriching its business cronies.
Besides the AES, among other “BN-Umno projects” awaiting implementation to inflict untold economic misery on the people are the 4% GST (Goods and Services Tax), healthcare privatisation, fuel price hikes, toll increases, etc all guaranteed to trigger extensive inflation.
Malaysians can also expect more BN-Umno schemes that will make the people pay to sustain all its mega projects, to be launched in the name of development.
In short, if BN-Umno wins GE13, its economic priority will go the exact opposite of Pakatan Rakyat (PR)’s people-oriented and friendly fiscal policies.
PR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim has repeatedly guaranteed Malaysians in his ongoing nationwide ceramah road tour that he would announce a slash in retail fuel prices within 24 hours, if he is sworn in as the next prime minister.
There is nothing impossible about this promise because of our oil revenue that can be saved by cutting down on corruption and fancy projects that only enrich BN-Umno cronies.
By reducing the retail price of fuel, transport cost will reduce and therefore the price of goods, essentials, foodstuffs and services will also be cheaper.
Anwar has also reiterated that a PR federal government would do away with all race-based policies so as to fast track socio-economic growth for all Malaysians and Malaysia.
PR’s Buku Jingga (Orange Book) and its alternative Budget 2013 have outlined clearly all its people-centric initiatives and policies.
Among the reforms to be realised within 100 days of governance are:
Ø Reforming institutions like the Election Commission, Anti-Corruption Commission, Attorney-General’s Chambers and the Royal Malaysian Police to return authority to the government administration system;
Ø Ordering Khazanah Bhd, Employees Provident Fund and all government agencies with highway concessions to facilitate the takeover of highway assets for the abolishment of tolls;
Ø Reshuffling the national subsidy structure to reduce the subsidy to the private sector, such as the RM19 billion gas subsidy, and channel the savings to the people;
Ø Recognising the role and merits of civil servants by reviewing their salary structure starting by raising their allowance to RM500 a month;
Ø Making water the peoples’ right by restoring all private sector water management concessions to the government;
Ø Providing free Wi-Fi internet connectivity to the people in urban and semi-urban areas; and
Ø Increasing the oil royalty for Sabah, Sarawak, Terengganu and Kelantan to 20%, up from the current 5%.
Malaysians therefore cannot afford to continue to gamble away their and the country’s future after witnessing BN-Umno’s plundering ways for 55 years.
Malaysia’s fast growing federal debt of more than RM620 billion (including RM118 billion in off Budget liabilities or sovereign guarantees for private corporations like the Port Klang Free Zone and government-linked company loans ending 2011) against a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of RM881 billion or 70.4% of GDP is testimony of BN-Umno’s gross incompetence in managing of the country wealth and finances.
For Malaysians and PR, winning the GE13 by a simple majority is not enough because BN-Umno has the financial means to hijack the peoples’ choice, like what it did in Perak in 2009.
It must be a resounding victory for PR to put to rest BN-Umno’s insatiable greed.

AES system won't be scrapped despite freeze

NOT A SCHEME TO MAKE MONEY- Cabinet to look into results of study by A-G's Chambers and RTD on all issues

KUALA LUMPUR: THE cabinet has directed the Attorney-General's Chambers and the Road Transport Department to thoroughly address all issues surrounding the Automated Enforcement System (AES).
Top in the list of priorities for the two parties are:
TO ensure that measures put in place are in the spirit of protecting the people's interests;
TO ensure that nobody is victimised; and,
TO ensure that there will be no legal backlash in its implementation.
Sources said the directive followed Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail's briefing to the cabinet on contentious issues related to AES and the chamber's decision on Tuesday to freeze all court proceedings on summonses under the system.
Gani, in his statement on the freeze, had said the decision stemmed from concerns over matters related to "law and other technicalities" and they had to address them, with a decision to be made "within the next few days". But he maintained that summonses issued by RTD were valid.
A source said the chambers and RTD were also told to ensure that the people fully understood how the system worked.
"There have been a lot of misconceptions on how AES works as several parties have been politicising the issue.
"Many do not know that while the enforcement system was privatised to save the government from incurring costs, the decision to proceed with summonses lies solely with RTD and no one else.
"It is not a money-making mechanism but a system to promote a safer driving habit among Malaysians.
"Most people, including law-abiding drivers and those whose families and friends have died due to reckless driving, all support this system," said the source, adding that the cabinet had not set any deadline for the chambers and RTD to address all issues.
On talk that the AES system would be scrapped, another source said this would not happen.
"The fact is that this system is used by 90 countries and they have seen positive results from its implementation.
"At the end of the day, everyone wants Malaysian roads to be safe, at least for the sake of their loved ones. So, why resist the very move that could help us get there?"
The cabinet, the source said, would look at the result of the study by the chambers and RTD into various issues before deciding on the next course of action. Among the issues discussed was the enforcement side.
Under the project, 831 AES cameras would be set up all over the country in stages. Fourteen such cameras have been operational since Sept 23. They are located in hot spots or accident-prone areas in the Klang Valley and Perak.
The implementation of the system had drawn mixed reactions, with one party supporting the effort to reduce accidents and fatalities, and the other against it.
The number of traffic offences committed at the 14 locations has plunged drastically since the day the cameras were set up. - New Straits Times

AES firm to take Selayang Council to court

KUALA LUMPUR — Beta Tegap Sdn Bhd, one of two companies awarded the controversial Automatic Enforcement System (AES) contract, is challenging in court the Sepang Municipal Council’s directive to dismantle two speed-trap cameras installed in Selangor.
“The judicial review application will be heard on February 14,” a lawyer for the concessionaire, Alex De Silva, told The Malaysian Insider when contacted today.
The Sepang local council had, in a letter dated December 6, ordered Beta Tegap to dismantle two of its cameras that had been set up on the North-South Highway and the South Klang Valley Expressway within 14 days.
Beta Tegap is seeking to declare the local council has no jurisdiction over the two highways, but the company’s legal standing will likely be raised as well because it is a private company contracted to install the speed-trap cameras while traffic summonses are issued by the Road Transport Department, considered the rightful authority to issue any legal challenge.
The Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) has ordered a halt to all court proceedings related to the AES summonses to study legal issues that have been raised even as it said the tickets were still valid, it said in a statement yesterday.
Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng in a statement today acknowledged the AGC’s statement as “legally correct” but insisted “there should be no more unnecessary delay in putting an end to this sordid scheme of allowing two BN crony companies to profit based on commissions imposed on every traffic summons disguised as enforcement to reduce accidents”.
The Malaysian Insider had reported yesterday that Putrajaya was considering suspending the implementation of the system as it appeared to duplicate police speed traps along the highways.
It is understood that Transport Minister Kong Cho Ha has been one of the few ministers who have been defending the implementation of the AES behind closed doors.
The privatised RM700 million project began in September with a pilot phase of 14 cameras but the RTD has pledged to roll out a total of 831 cameras by end-2013 to catch speeding motorists and prevent more road deaths.
The police, who enforce the speeding laws, have said they will continue enforcement and carry on putting up mobile speed traps near the AES cameras, raising the prospect of dual fines for errant motorists.
“The government is considering putting on hold the implementation of the AES due to the duplication of the summons system. That will cause hardship,” a source had told The Malaysian Insider.
He also noted that several lawmakers from the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) have also asked the government to stop the implementation until all views are considered.
Another source said the government wants to ensure the AES will help ensure that motorists follow speed limits throughout their journey rather than just in the areas where the cameras are situated.
“This system is to enforce speed limits and ensure road safety,” he added. –themalaysianinsider

AES operator gets leave to challenge MPS' decision

Posted on 19 December 2012 - 06:51pm
Last updated on 19 December 2012 - 10:16pm
KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 19, 2012): The operator of the Automatic Enforcement System (AES), Beta Tegap Sdn Bhd, has obtained leave for a judicial review to challenge the decision of the Sepang Municipal Council (MPS) in ordering the company to dismantle the two AES cameras in the municipality.
High Court justice Datuk Zaleha Yusof granted the leave in chambers in the presence of lawyers Alex De Silva, representing Beta Tegap, and M. Indrani and K. Kandiah, both for MPS.
De Silva told reporters later that the court also ordered MPS to not take any action pending a court decision on his client's application which had been fixed for case management on Feb 6 and the hearing on Feb 14.
Beta Tegap filed the application seeking a certiorari order to quash the decision by MPS. According to Beta Tegap, the municipal council, through a letter dated Nov 19 this year, required that the company apply for permission to install the AES poles and cameras at KM301.7 of the North-South Expressway and at KM6.6 of the South Klang Valley Expressway, both located in Dengkil, Sepang.
The MPS, in a letter dated Dec 6, ordered the company to dismantle the cameras within 14 days of the notice. Following which, Beta Tegap filed an application to the court seeking a declaration that MPS had no jurisdiction over the two highways. – Bernama/theSun

Liow, what’s happening to basic healthcare services at clinics, hospitals?


Liow, what’s happening to basic healthcare services at clinics, hospitals?
By Chua Jui Meng


AS A FORMER Health Minister, I abhor complaints of the people being denied healthcare services in government clinics.
Health Minister Liow Tiong Lai must seriously look into the complaint of a pensioner who was denied his normal blood test check-up in a clinic in Negri Sembilan.
The retired civil servant’s complaint was highlighted by cpi (Centre for Policy Initiatives) and if valid, it is worrisome for Malaysians (see cpi posting reproduced below).
The pensioner claimed he was told by the doctor that he could not carry out the usual blood tests for him because the service had been discontinued at clinics as well as government hospitals in Negri Sembilan.
The directive to stop blood tests in government clinics and hospitals is supposedly from the (federal) government.
Liow! Where are you? You must clarify and explain what is going on in your ministry?
Why is this happening? Is the government trying to save money because of all its plundering and emptying of the national coffer or is it an attempt to enrich the private sector healthcare providers who will then make quick bucks on blood tests?
I pray it is not because of financial constraints that this is happening.
If the government can just squander away RM250 million on “Cow Minister” Shahrizat’s family, I don’t see why there should be any problem providing sufficient basic healthcare to the people.
Liow must quickly clarify or explain such shoddy healthcare services dished out by the government clinic in Negri Sembilan.
In any civilised or developed country, the healthcare of its citizens is top priority.
The government is duty-bound to provide basic medical treatment and healthcare services to the poor and low-income families.
It is the people who drive a nation. They cannot afford to be unhealthy or medically unfit.
The long queues of patients at government clinics and hospitals, especially in Sabah and Sarawak, are telling.
It only tells us that the health ministry’s efficiency and services have declined drastically in the last decade.
According to an Oct 1, 2012, report by THEEDGE (http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=221760&Itemid=77), the Federation of Private Medical Practitioners’ Association Malaysia said the government must give more thought to the 1Malaysia Clinics to fully serve the urban poor.
Its president Dr Steven Chow said the RM20 million Budget 2013 allocation for 70 additional 1Malaysia Clinics was insufficient.
Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak had announced RM19.3 billion for operating expenditure and development expenditure in the health industry.
That is no small amount but if it is not enough, then it should be topped up.
There is also the question of whether the allocations had been prudently managed.
When a government starts faltering on medical and healthcare services to the people, it is a sign that the national coffer is in dire straits.
What remains, if any, is the most important question for Malaysians to ask the Umno-led Barisan Nasional federal government.
I echo cpi’s concern in asking whether this is the tip of the iceberg of a medical crisis.
Here’s the cpi posting:

Tip of the iceberg of a medical crisis?
Written by Anonymous Wednesday, 19 December 2012 11:55
Commentary
 
CPI's introduction
We received a letter of complaint on public healthcare services in Negeri Sembilan.
A ruling has been issued stating that blood tests for many medical conditions can no longer be carried out by the government hospitals and clinics in the state.
We are reproducing the complainant's letter in its original Bahasa Malaysia as well as providing a translation of the text in English (see below).
We have discussed with various doctors the likely impacts of this ruling on discontinuing blood tests. Prospective patients, healthcare workers and the general populace should be made aware of these.
The consequences include:
    • Cancer detection. Patients who have undergone surgery or chemotherapy for cancer now cannot check for the recurrence of the following cancers (the relevant blood test are here cited): colon cancer (CEA), prostate cancer (PSA blood), ovarian cancer (CA125) and testicular cancer (AFP).
    • HIV detection. It cannot now be confirmed whether patients have HIV or not. For patients already being treated for HIV, the progress of their treatment cannot be monitored (CD4/CD8 counts).
    • Diabetes monitoring. The gold standard for monitoring a patient's blood sugar level (HbA1c) in government diabetic clinics in the state will no longer be available.
    • Drug abuse. Tests that are required to identify new candidates for drug rehabilitation programmes, like the methadone programme, cannot now be done (HIV; Hepatitis B and C). Monitoring cannot be done to ensure that patients are not taking illicit drugs such as cocaine, morphine and amphetamines (urine drug tests for these).
    • Epilepsy tests. Epileptic patients who are not responding well to medical treatment for seizures need certain tests to determine the correct concentration of a prescribed drug for treating seizures effectively. These tests are now not available (carbamazepine, phenytoin, valproic acid). Without these tests, doctors cannot check whether the patient is being correctly medicated for seizures, or whether the patient will require a different drug.
See the complaint letter for more information.
This matter has broader implications. These are:
Poor patients now have to resort to private healthcare
Given that these tests now cannot be done in public hospitals and clinics, patients might have to go to private hospitals or private blood testing companies. This is a financial burden for lower and middle income patients, particularly in a belt-tightening economy.
The performance of doctors would be affected
In a setting where blood test information and/or medicine supplies are lacking, the judgement and services of the government doctors will likely be impaired. This would be to the detriment of the patients. There could occur a kind of triage situation where only the most urgent cases will receive treatment while other patients who still need treatment may be denied it.
Rationing could mean queues and bottlenecks at hospitals
The rationing of blood tests or even medicine supplies might mean that there could be bottlenecks or queues at the affected hospitals and clinics. Aside from inconveniencing sick patients, this could further strain the operations of hospitals and clinics. Hospitals elsewhere might have to cope with the possible spillover of patients from the affected hospitals.
A sign of other crises
If a basic and critical part of healthcare such as blood tests cannot be carried out because of financial difficulty, other areas of healthcare are also likely to have been affected, such as the provision of medicines and health programmes (e.g., diabetes and smoking cessation), which is indeed the case. The possibility cannot be discounted that this Negeri Sembilan episode may be the tip of the iceberg of bigger financial misgovernance. It forces open questions about the actual health of our country's finances.
The authorities should respond swiftly given the gravity of this complaint. Other stakeholders might want to investigate the efficacy and integrity of our public health system. The adequate provisioning of basic needs for the people cannot be compromised in any properly managed country.

Urgent Crisis: Important Blood Tests No Longer Available at All Negeri Sembilan Hospitals and Health Clinics Due to Lack of Funds
Salutations.
I am a retired Malaysian civil servant and diabetic patient with a thyroid problem.
I need to do blood tests to check that my thyroid level is healthy.
Two days ago I sought treatment at a government health clinic in Negeri Sembilan.
The doctor said he cannot carry out the usual blood tests for me.
I was surprised to be told that blood tests have been discontinued at the clinics as well as government hospitals in Negeri Sembilan.
I was informed that this directive is an order from the government.
Quite recently, the shortage of medicines in government hospitals and clinics was debated in Parliament and the matter remains unresolved. Now (we’re told) even blood tests cannot be carried out.
It defies logic that a crisis such as this can occur in a peaceful and prosperous country like ours. If we were a war zone like Gaza in Palestine then it could make better sense that blood tests and medicines could not be provided. How is it possible that our situation in Negeri Sembilan has become akin to that in a conflict zone?
A total of 50 blood tests have been listed as discontinued, and they include important ones such as:
- Tests for HIV
- Tests for cancers
- Tests for dengue fever
- Control tests for diabetes
- Tests for hepatitis B and C
- Follow-up tests for thyroid treatment
- Tests for thalassaemia
- Tests for infertility
I received information that blood testing is unavailable because the government has no more financial allocations for laboratory materials.
In fact, it is said that laboratory materials worth RM500,000 procured earlier were obtained on credit (that is, by incurring debt) from medical suppliers .
Many patients including myself have given blood samples but it is likely that these samples will be discarded as the blood tests will no longer be carried out.
This is a waste of the rakyat's time and the rakyat’s money.
I am angry and disappointed with the lackadaisical attitude shown in dealing with this serious matter.
It is not logical when the federal government can afford to spend millions of ringgit on KR1M/BR1M handouts and on bonus payments to the civil servants.
What use is all that if the government does not have a single sen to guarantee the provision of a basic service in public healthcare?
The Negeri Sembilan government announced last week that it obtained a 'smart city' grant of USD400,000 (~RM1.2 million) from the IBM computer company for the state.
Is the ‘smart city’ status a greater priority than the health of the suffering masses?
I hope that my complaint will open the eyes and hearts of our leaders and that immediate action can be taken for the basic wellbeing of the people.
Thank you.

Krisis Gempar: Ujian-ujian Darah Penting Tidak Lagi Dapat Dilakukan Di Semua Hospital Dan Klinik Kesihatan Di Negeri Sembilan Kerana Kekurangan Wang

Salam sejahtera.
Saya seorang pesara kerajaan Malaysia dan pesakit masalah tiroid dan kencing manis.
Saya perlu melakukan ujian darah untuk memastikan paras tiroid dalam badan saya adalah sihat.
Dua hari lepas saya telah pergi ke sebuah klinik kesihatan kerajaan di Negeri Sembilan untuk mendapatkan rawatan.
Doktor memberitahu saya beliau tidak boleh lagi melakukan ujian darah untuk saya.
Saya terkejut apabila saya diberitahu bahawa kebanyakan ujian darah telah diberhentikan oleh klinik-klinik mahupun hospital-hospital kerajaan di Negeri Sembilan.
Saya dimaklumkan ini perintah daripada pihak kerajaan.
Lewat-lewat ini, masalah kehabisan bekalan ubat di hospital-hospital dan klinik-klinik kerajaan telah dibahaskan di Parlimen dan perkara ini masih belum selesai. Sekarang ujian darah pula tidak boleh dibuat.
Pelik sekali krisis seperti ini boleh berlaku di negara kita yang aman dan makmur. Boleh diterima sekiranya ujian darah dan pemberian ubat tidak dapat dilakukan di zon peperangan seperti Gaza di Palestin, tetapi apakah situasi di Negeri Sembilan sudah tenat seperti di kawasan peperangan?
Bayangkan, sejumlah 50 ujian darah telah disenaraikan tidak dapat dilakukan lagi. Ini termasuklah ujian-ujian darah yang mustahak seperti:
- Ujian untuk HIV
- Ujian untuk penyakit barah/kanser
- Ujian untuk demam denggi
- Ujian kawalan untuk kencing manis
- Ujian untuk hepatitis B dan C
- Ujian untuk rawatan lanjutan tiroid
- Ujian untuk penyakit 'thalassaemia'
- Ujian untuk pasangan kurang subur
Saya menerima maklumat bahawa ini berlaku kerana kerajaan negeri tidak ada peruntukan wang lagi untuk membeli bahan ujian makmal.
Malahan bahan ujian makmal bernilai RM500,000 yang diperolehi sebelum ini dikatakan didapati secara pinjaman (atau hutang) daripada pihak pembekal.
Ramai pesakit termasuk saya sudah memberikan sampel darah mereka tetapi kemungkinan semuanya terpaksa dibuang sekarang kerana ujian-ujian darah tidak dapat dibuat lagi.
Ini satu pembaziran masa dan wang rakyat.
Saya marah dan kecewa dengan sikap sambil lewa yang ditunjukkan dalam menangani perkara yang serius ini.
Tidak logik apabila kerajaan pusat mampu membelanjakan berjuta-juta ringgit untuk KR1M/BR1M dan untuk wang bonus pegawai kerajaan.
Apakah gunanya semua itu kalau kerajaan tak mempunyai satu sen pun untuk menjamin kepentingan asas seperti kesihatan rakyat?
Minggu lepas kerajaan Negeri Sembilan mengumumkan penerimaan geran bernilai USD400,000 (~RM1.2 juta) daripada syarikat komputer IBM untuk menjadikan Negeri Sembilan 'bandar pintar'.
Apakah status 'bandar pintar' diutamakan manakala kesihatan rakyat yang menderita dikebelakangkan?

Semoga keluhan saya ini membuka mata dan hati para pemimpin kami dan tindakan segera dapat diambil demi kebajikan asas rakyat.
Sekian.
MASIH BERKHIDMAT UNTUK NEGARA
Seorang pesara kerajaan Malaysia.
