The fruit of a poisonous tree is poisonous. There are no two ways about it. The opposition will sound more credible if it were to announce that it is boycotting the salaries and allowances for all Members of Parliament and State Assemblypersons since it considers the recent general election as illegitimate and the government as equally illegitimate. NO HOLDS BARRED Raja Petra Kamarudin PKR to decide tonight on boycott of swearing-in of MPs (ABN News) - PKR will decide tonight whether its Members of Parliament should boycott the swearing-in ceremony when the new session of Parliament begins on June 24. The political bureau will discuss the move tonight, PKR strategic director Rafizi Ramli told a press conference today. *********************************** Boycotting the Parliament briefing session or the swearing-in ceremony or even the Parliament sittings is one thing. What they should do, and which is more important, is that they should boycott the salary and allowances that are being paid to the Members of Parliament, which comes to a hell a lot of money. This is not just about the money, of course. This is about the principle of the matter. Since you regard the recent general election as an illegitimate general election and the 222 Members of Parliament (plus the 505 State Assemblypersons) as being illegitimately elected into office, then the salaries and allowances would be equally illegal. Hence, on point of principle, the salaries and allowances should be rejected until the legitimacy of the general election plus the legitimacy of Parliament and the State Assemblies are resolved by the election courts. This is more so for the Muslim Members of Parliament and State Assemblypersons. It boils down to proper Islamic teachings and principles. The product or result of something haram is haram. For example liquor and gambling are haram. So the income from such enterprises is haram. And by that same token, if the appointment is haram, then the income from that appointment is also haram. That is if you want to be proper Muslims and not just talk about Islam without meaning a single word of what you say. We must remember that Anwar Ibrahim is going all over Malaysia saying that the opposition does not recognise the recent general election. He wants the recent general election declared null and void. In short, the present government (and 'government' here means all 222 Members of Parliament and 505 State Assemblypersons and not the administration, which comprises of the civil service) is haram. Hence everything attached to it, the salaries and allowances as well, are haram. The fruit of a poisonous tree is poisonous. There are no two ways about it. The opposition will sound more credible if it were to announce that it is boycotting the salaries and allowances for all Members of Parliament and State Assemblypersons since it considers the recent general election as illegitimate and the government as equally illegitimate. To accept the salaries and allowances would mean you accept the election result and consider yourself properly and duly elected into office. This would appear inconsistent with your stand of not recognising and accepting the general election. *********************************** 不合法的就是不合法的
對源自一棵毒樹的果實來講，它自己本身也是有毒的；這是毋庸置疑的。既然反對黨都認爲此次大選是不合法的（進而他們也認爲此屆政府也是不合法的）話，如果他們能宣佈杯葛收受給與他們黨内囯州議員的薪金與津貼，他們的信譽肯定會變得更好。
公正黨今晚決定是否要杯葛國會議員宣誓就職禮 (ABN新聞) – 公正黨將會于今晚決定其中選的國會議員是否會杯葛于6月24日舉行的宣誓就職典禮。
杯葛國會宣誓就職典禮/簡報會議/座位分配是一回事。他們應該做的，而且更爲重要的，是杯葛接受國會議員的薪金與津貼；我們現在所談及的是一筆很大的數目呢。 當然，這並不只是牽涉到金錢而以，我們在此談及的是原則。既然你們都認爲此屆大選是不合法的和那222位國會議員（再加上505位州議員）是通過不合法的渠道中選的，那麽這些薪金與津貼也鐵定是不合法的。 所以說，他們應該拒絕收取這些薪金與津貼，直到大選結果和囯/州會的合法性被選舉法庭承認爲止。 這對信奉回教的囯州議員來講尤其重要，這和伊斯蘭教義和原則是有很大關聯的。那些原自不合法的活動的產品/結果一樣也是不合法的。給你個例子，酒類和賭博是不合法的，所以從這些東西衍生出來的收益也是不合法的。運用同樣的道理，如果說這次囯州議員是通過不合法的管道被任命的，那隨之而來的收入也是不合法的。 當然，這是一個真正穆斯林的做法，而不是那些只會空談不會實踐的穆斯林的做法。 我們必須記得安華他是全國跑透透來向大家表明反對黨是不承認此次大選的結果的；他要此次大選被宣佈無效。簡短一點來講，現任政府（這裡的政府指的是那222名國會議員與505名州會議員，而不是管理行政人員如公務員等）是不合法的，所以任何跟它扯上關係的（包括薪金與津貼）也都是不合法的。 對源自一棵毒樹的果實來講，它自己本身也是有毒的；這是毋庸置疑的。既然反對黨都認爲此次大選是不合法的（進而他們也認爲此屆政府也是不合法的）話，如果他們能宣佈杯葛收受給與他們黨内囯州議員的薪金與津貼，他們的信譽肯定會變得更好。 儅你接受薪金與津貼時你其實已間接地接受了此屆大選的結果。這和你表明不接受大選結果的立場是很自相矛盾的。
