Zahid Hamidi admits flew to Saudi on private jet

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 05:10 PM PST

(The Malaysian Insider) - Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi confessed today he flew to Saudi Arabia for his haj in a private jet but says his friend owns it.

The defence minister was responding to allegations he owned the aircraft.

Several bloggers had accused him of graft, questioning how he could afford a jet on his government income.

Ahmad Zahid is the second member of the Cabinet to come under public scrutiny in recent weeks following the Auditor-General's report last month.

Earlier Women, Family and Community Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil came under attack for power abuse after the country's top auditor revealed her husband and children were involved in the National Feedlot Corporation, a multimillion ringgit government cattle farming project, and messed it up.

In a text message to The Malaysian Insider today, Ahmad Zahid confessed to jetting to Mecca for the haj recently.

"Yes it's true, but I only hitched a ride. Coincidentally he too was performing the haj," he said.

"Is that wrong?" he shot back.

According to the claims spread through emails, Ahmad Zahid had first flown to Mecca to meet his wife Datin Seri Hamidah Khamis who had gone gone ahead to Saudi Arabia. Both of them then boarded the private jet to Jeddah.

Kalimullah vs Chang: Court to hear Khairy, three others to set aside Subpoenas

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 05:04 PM PST

(Bernama) - Rembau Member of Parliament Khairy Jamaluddin Abu Bakar and three others are applying to set aside subpoenas for them to testify in a suit brought by Datuk Seri Kalimullah Masheerul Hassan against lawyer Matthias Chang Wen Chieh.

High Court judge Datuk Asmabi Mohamad set Dec 2 to hear the application filed by Khairy, who is also Umno Youth chief, former second finance minister

Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop, former director of South Peninsular Industries Bhd Tan Sri Azman Hashim and Limkokwing University of Creative Technology's founder Tan Sri Lim Kok Wing.

The judge fixed the date after meeting all the parties today.

They were subpoenaed to testify as Chang's witnesses in the ongoing trial of the suit brought by Kalimullah, a former New Straits Times Press Bhd (NSTP) deputy chairman.

The trial which began last Thursday, will continue this Friday.

Asked to comment on the matter, Chang's counsel Vinod R. Kamalanathan told reporters that Chang, as the defendant in the suit, wanted to call the four to prove his defence of qualified privilege, fair comment and justification.

Counsel Datuk Rajan Navaratnam, acting for Lim, said his client applied to set aside the subpoena on the basis that he (Lim) was not involved in the suit.

On June 29, 2006, Kalimullah filed a defamation suit after Chang had allegedly made statements against him on June 13, the same year, at a press conference, a report of which was published in the Singapore Straits Times through its Malaysian correspondent, Leslie Lau.

He is asking for RM50 million in damages, costs, interests and an injunction to restrain Chang from publishing similar words.

He said the words in the article meant that he was dishonest and had no credibility, was unreliable, tainted, rotten, faint-hearted, manipulative, and a betrayer of Malaysians.

Kalimullah, who testified in court last Thursday, had told the court that he filed the suit against Chang for making damaging and baseless statements against him.

Chang, previously a political secretary to former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, had also filed a counter-claim against Kalimullah on July 14, 2006, among others, seeking RM150 million in damages.

 

Yong: If guilty, I’ll shoot myself

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 04:49 PM PST

The former Sabah chief minister, who is willing to put his life on the line, wants a white paper on the SAS fiasco so that the truth will be known.

(Free Malaysia Today) - Former Sabah chief minister Yong Teck Lee is prepared to pull the trigger on himself if he is found to be responsible for the Sabah Amanah Saham (SAS) scandal.

Citing the same example quoted by another former chief minister Harris Salleh that in China, a public official whose mistake resulted in housewives losing a massive RM300 million was sentenced to death by shooting, Yong said: "I'll shoot myself (if the allegation against him is true)."

"But if it is shown that it is not me but others who were responsible for the SAS fiasco, then I only wish that the truth be known to all and justice be done.

"It is for this reason that SAPP and our elected representatives have been pressing for a white paper on the SAS fiasco and lodged several police reports on the same," he added.

The SAPP president also wanted Harris to convince Chief Minister Musa Aman to publish a white paper on the incident to expose the true culprits behind the SAS fiasco.

According to him, this is the best way to find out the truth behind the RM300 million losses suffered by SAS' investors allegedly due to the NBT/Warisan Harta composite shares swap.

"After all, Harris recently conferred on Musa the 'best chief minister ever' (title). If there is nothing to hide and if Yong is guilty as alleged by Harris and (Deputy Chief Minister) Dr Yee Moh Chai, then why has this government refused to publish a white paper?" he said.

Besides this, he also suggested that Harris read his own book published in 1996 before commenting further on the withdrawal of the Yayasan Sabah (YS) shares certificates.

He disputed Harris' statement last Saturday that the Sabah Foundation shares were withdrawn by Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) administration in 1990 just prior to the state elections that year.

The Sabah Foundation shares were replaced by the Amanah Rakyat Negeri Sabah (ARNS).

Harris cannot deny knowledge

Yong contended that Harris cannot claim that he is not aware that it is not him (Yong) as chief minster from May 28, 1996 to May 27, 1998, but it was PBS, in 1990, who withdrew the YS shares.

"At the time, before the state elections of 1990, I was an assistant minister, not even a full minister," he told reporters.

He further noted that ARNS was a new fund set up under the Amanah Rakyat Negeri Sabah Enactment 1990, passed by the legislative assembly on March 15, 1990 and assented to by the head of state on March 31, 1990.

It was this ARNS that disbursed the RM200 to each Sabah Foundation beneficiary using the YS management and network.

Yong also claimed that the accounts of the ARNS distribution of RM200 per head could not be audited.

He recalled that the Cabinet in 1997 (when he was CM) was informed that there were audit queries over missing monies and possible fraudulent payments to unqualified or non-existent persons.

He claimed to have asked the YS management to lodge police reports.

He reckoned that whatever the status of the ARNS and YS share certificates today, he trusts that the current administration can satisfy public curiosity.

"I can only answer for things done by me as chief minister," he said.

AirAsia boss vents anger on MAHB

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 04:46 PM PST

(Bernama) - AirAsia Bhd's group chief executive officer, Tony Fernandes, has called off a press conference on airport tax which was scheduled later today.

However, he used the social media, Facebook, to vent his frustration at the issue, saying airport taxes should be lower to make them afforable to the common people.

"AirAsia has been fighting to make them cheaper for the common man. Airport taxes are paid by Malaysians and the passengers.

"The money doesn't go to AirAsia but Malaysia Airport Holdings Bhd (MAHB)," he said in his Facebook today.

He said Malaysia Airlines and AirAsia had given Malaysian airports ideas to increase their income by attracting more airlines.

"Then reduce the charges," he said.

Fernandes said there were too many empty promises made by Malaysian airports and the airlines were blamed for their poor performance.

"AirAsia wants MAHB to come clean. The new Low-Cost Carrier Terminal (KLIA2) was supposed to be operational in June 2012 and cost RM2 billion," he said.

It has been reported before that the cost of KLIA2, which has the capability to handle 30 million passengers, will cost more than the initial figure of RM2 billion.

Fernandes also questioned the need for a third runway at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).

"Why is KLIA building a third runway when they don't use dual mode on two runways? Heathrow has 60 million passengers with two runways.

"Fixing the air traffic system would have been cheaper than building another runway," he said.

On criticisms from four MPs, Fernandes said they had made it very personal.

"Villagers could never fly before. We have worked so hard to make flying affordable and 130 million people have flown due to us," he said.

 

 

Pakatan: Excessive Vitamin A in Kedai Rakyat milk powder

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 03:29 PM PST

By Shannon Teoh, The Malaysian Insider

 

The federal opposition today claimed that the milk powder sold in Kedai Rakyat 1 Malaysia (KR1M) contained over eight times the legal limit of Vitamin A, and may be harmful to children.

Pakatan Rakyat (PR) lawmakers told a press conference the 1 Malaysia-branded Growing Up Milk Powder for children above the age of one contained 6,012 international units (IU) of Vitamin A per 100kcal.

DAP publicity chief Tony Pua said this was 802 per cent over the legal limit set under Regulation 389A of the Food Regulations Act 1985.

The Petaling Jaya Utara MP also said the amount of Vitamin A was 588 per cent over the United States Recommended Daily Allowance.

Excessive amounts of Vitamin A may lead to liver problems, reduced bone mineral density, skin discolouration and hair loss, he said.

PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar called for an independent investigation to ensure that goods sold in the thrift stores met regulations.

Pua also said the amount of calcium and iron in the milk powder did not meet the minimum required under the law.

The opposition pact has accused the government today of taking advantage of the poor by selling "substandard products" at the KR1M which were launched by Datuk Seri Najib Razak in June.

The prime minister launched the first of three shops now operating in the Klang Valley in response to rising inflation, which hit a two-year high of 3.5 per cent that same month.

Malay Mail off the streets from tomorrow until January 2012

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 03:28 PM PST

(The Malaysian Insider) - KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 15 — Tabloid The Malay Mail will see its last print edition today and return as a morning national newspaper in January 2012 under an ambitious renewal to include possible content from the South China Morning Post and the Malaysiakini news portal.

However, the currently free afternoon tabloid will still be available online until it is relaunched on January 3 for RM1 a copy, sources said.

The Malaysian Insider understands the tabloid's main shareholders, the Redberry Media group, have also taken a multi-million ringgit loan for its expansion, including opening up offices across the peninsula.

Several reporters have left the tabloid in recent months despite the entry of The Sun's Terence Fernandez who joined as executive editor.

It is understood that he now runs the tabloid as recently-promoted editor-in-chief Yushaimi Yahya has been moved to an advisory role ahead of the relaunch.

The tabloid's move to get content from Malaysiakini has also appeared to hit a bump as the Home Ministry called in the editors for an explanation after The Malaysian Insider reported the possible deal last month.

Sources said The Malay Mail was told that it cannot take unverified content from news portals and Home Ministry officials were also perturbed that it could be a way for Malaysiakini to find its way into print editions despite not having a printing permit.

Malaysiakini, which began in 1999, has been interested in the print media for some time and is suing the Home Ministry for a publishing permit.

The Malay Mail, which began on December 14, 1896, used to be part of the New Straits Times Press group before it was sold off to Redberry Media group, a subsidiary of listed Ancom Berhad spearheaded by Datuk Siew Ka Wei.

Redberry is controlled by Siew and his partner Mohamad Al-Amin Abdul Majid, who is known to be a confidant of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

The remaining shares in The Malay Mail are held by businessman Ibrahim Mohamad Nor who had originally bought the newspaper from the New Straits Times Press.

It became a free afternoon newspaper in May 2008.

European debt crisis

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:58 PM PST

By Lim Sue Goan, MySinChew

How serious is the European debt crisis? Let's see how experts view it.

Influential investor Jim Rogers noted that the world is certainly going to face another financial crisis which will be much worse than the one in 2008.

New York University Professor Nouriel Roubini said that the world economy is likely to undergo a double-dip recession in the short term, and some countries might suddenly leave the eurozone. It could determine whether or not the world enters a worse recession than the one in 2008.

The 2008 global financial crisis was bad enough but the possible upcoming crisis is expected to be worse than the one three years ago. How could it happen? What should Malaysia do?

In fact, the overconsumption crisis has been brewing for long. Portugal, Italy, Greece, Spain and Ireland have been labelled as the "PIGS" because of their stagnant economies, as well as high unemployment rates and fiscal deficits. Greece started to encounter a debt crisis since 2008. Later, Greece, Ireland and Portugal received assistance from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Italy was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Italy's government debt is massive, at around €1.9 trillion, or 120% of its gross domestic product (GDP). It is even huger than the total debts of Spain, Portugal and Ireland. When its sovereign bond yields rose above 7%, market players described it as a "terrible crisis".

Although Greece and Italy have successively elected technocrat prime ministers to take the heavy responsibilities of leading the country out of the debt crisis, it will definitely be full of twists and turns.

Technocrats could ignore votes and implement painful austerity programmes but politicians would not miss the opportunity to stir up troubles. Public demonstrations and strikes would further worsen the situation.

Greece, Italy and France will hold their general elections next year. The rise of economic nationalism and the far-Right groups who do not like foreign immigrants and the European governments could lead to the withdrawal of Greece and Italy from the eurozoe.

Once the European Union (EU) collapses, there could be a run on a bank causing banks to go bankrupt and setting off a financial crisis.

It must not be ignored that European countries might face problems one by one. France, with its €1.7 trillion debt, could be next sufferer and it might followed by Spain, Hungary and the United Kingdom.

Unfortunately, Malaysians are not told how would the European debt crisis affect the national economy. Government leaders still optimistically believe that the impact would be small since the country relies on petroleum, palm oil and domestic demand.

Let's see how others respond to the European debt crisis. Hong Kong Financial Secretary John Tsang Chun-wah said that Hong Kong must maintain a healthy financial status and get prepared for the possible crisis triggered by the global economic downturn.

Meanwhile, the South Korean government plans to cut its budget deficit next year as a preparation for the growth slowdown.

Government and household debts are the risk of Malaysia in the face of the possible crisis. If no preparation is made while money is spent uncontrollably, we can never avoid the crisis without getting hurt. The problem is, where is our contingency plan?

Malaysia's c.bank governor says inflation has peaked in Malaysia

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:28 PM PST

(Reuters) - Malaysia's central bank governor Zeti Akhtar Aziz said on Tuesday that the country's rate of inflation has peaked and stabilised, but may still pose a risk if the price or supply of inputs are disrupted.

"There are always risks on the horizon for both because we are such an open economy," Zeti said.

"And given this ongoing financial crisis if it were to deteriorate beyond current circumstances then yes, it is going to be a risk to our growth."

The central bank decided to keep its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 3.00 percent at its most recent policy meeting held earlier this month, and said that it expected inflation to remain stable for the rest of this year.

Zeti told reporters at an Islamic financial conference here that the International Islamic Liquidity Management Corporation will issue its first papers within the next six months, with the value of the initial issuance expected to be less than $2 billion.

Meanwhile, two banking groups have been given conditional approvals for Islamic mega bank licenses, ie. Islamic banks with total capital of at least $1 billion. She did not disclose the identity of the banking groups.

Putrajaya justifies RM40b bill for Klang Valley MRT

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:22 PM PST

By Shannon Teoh, The Malaysian Insider

The government justified today its RM40 billion Mass Rail Transit (KVMRT) as the Klang Valley needs to match other major cities to alleviate road traffic congestion.

Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Ahmad Maslan told Parliament today the Klang Valley has less than 2km of rail per million residents, a coverage that is less than five per cent of other major cities.

"But other major cities such as London, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore have more than 40km per million," the Pontian MP said.

He said that only 17 per cent of residents living in and around the capital used public transport compared to at least 50 per cent in those other cities due to the low level of rail coverage.

Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad had asked if any study was made on whether residents would switch over from road vehicles to public transport after the KVMRT is completed.

"From a study I obtained, only 20 per cent of residents will benefit from the MRT. What is the government's target?" the Selangor PAS deputy chief said.

But Ahmad said the government has studied and surveyed residents in 2006, 2008 and 2010 and found that over 50 per cent of residents will use the KVMRT.

"We didn't just think of this yesterday. We are spending RM40 billion for three lines because the number of vehicles in the Klang Valley is increasing by 500,000 every year," he said.

He added that the first line, a 51km stretch from Sungai Buloh to Kajang (SBK), will service 1.2 million residents with a maximum capacity of 440,000 passengers per day.

Shahrizat need not quit over cattle fiasco, says DPM

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:19 PM PST

By Lisa J Ariffin, The Malaysian Insider

Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said today that Datuk Seri Shahrizat Jalil is not directly involved in National Feedlot Corporation (NFC), the cattle-farming project managed by the minister's family, and doesn't need to resign from the Cabinet.

He said this in response to Umno's Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Moktar Radin's call yesterday in the Dewan Rakyat that those responsible for the NFC fiasco should resign.

Allegations of financial impropriety have dogged the company owned by Shahrizat's family after the Auditor-General revealed last month that the NFC had failed to meet production targets for 2010, despite benefiting from a RM134.72 million soft loan from the government.

"He (Bung Moktar) didn't say directly that Shahrizat (picture) is involved because this is a business that is run by her family, but she is not involved," Muhyiddin told reporters.

However, he said Bung Moktar's resignation call was unnecessary "especially among our own people".

"This has been reported in Parliament by the minister of agriculture and agro-based industry (Datuk Seri Noh Omar) and has been discussed and explained in detail for more than one hour and should be well received," he said.

"Whether it is right (to call for resignation) Datuk Bung Moktar can think for himself," he added.

Curtain falls on Istana Negara

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 02:17 PM PST

(Bernama) - After a colourful 83-year history and having witnessed the coronation of seven of the 13 Yang di-Pertuan Agongs, the curtain falls on Istana Negara today.

The majestic white edifice with gold coloured domes, a familiar sight to motorists passing Jalan Syed Putra, will be officially decommissioned when the head of state's flag is lowered in a ceremony steeped in tradition.

Concurrently, the grand new Istana Negara at Jalan Duta will become the official palace for Malaysia's future head of states.

The outgoing Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin will go down in history as the last head of state to occupy the palace in Jalan Syed Putra.

This is where prime ministers, cabinet ministers, and chief justices took their oath of office.

This is also the palace where hundreds of Malaysian senior diplomats received their appointment letters to serve Malaysia overseas and where foreign diplomats were received.

Remarkably, this palace located on 11.3 hectares of land on Bukit Petaling started of as a mansion of a wealthy Chinese businessman, Chan Wing.

Built in 1928, its admirable architecture is the work of leading British architectural firm then, Swan & McLaren.

Chan is said to have lived there with his family until World War II, when the Japanese army occupied the place.

However, after the Japanese occupation ended Chan never returned to stay in his mansion and instead it was bought over by the British Malayan Administration that turned the mansion into a British senior officers' mess.

Its sheer size, its beautiful edifice, the 13 rooms, and the commanding view it provides impressed many, including the former Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sir Hishamuddin Alam Shah who first made the mansion as his palace.

In 1957, sometime before Merdeka the federal government bought over the palace and turned it into the official palace for the first Yang di-Pertuan Agong , Tuanku Abdul Rahman Tuanku Muhammad.

Ever since, it has been the abode for Malay rulers who took turns every five years to become the head of state.

The Istana Negara at Jalan Syed Putra, known as Lornie Road in those days, has 20 function rooms including 'balai mengadap' where dignitaries are received, guest rooms, banquet hall, and the throne room Balairong Seri Utama that houses the royal dias.

The throne room in fact came much later, and so earlier coronations were held at Dewan Tunku Abdul Rahman in Jalan Ampang.

The Sultan of Pahang Sultan Ahmad Shah had the honour of going through the first coronation ceremony at the palace in 1980.

The smaller throne room - Bilik Singgahsana Kecil - is where the Agong hands over appointment letters to governors, judges and Malaysian diplomats.

The new Istana Negara in Jalan Duta is set to see the coronation of the 14th Yang di-Pertuan Agong - Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah of Kedah - in December.

The RM800 million palace is grandeur in design and bigger in size, a fitting recognition to the unique constitutional monarchy system practiced successfully since independence.

While the new Istana Negara will be the seat for the future head of states, the old Istana Negara is expected to serve as the museum of royalty illustrating how the constitutional monarchy in the country had evolved. –Bernama

Malaysia 15th largest trade partner with Israel

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 01:48 PM PST

(Harakah Daily) - The Barisan Nasional government's secret trade ties with the Zionist regime in Tel Aviv have come under renewed scrutiny with the revelation of a new document by a DAP member of parliament.
Citing a report on Europe-Israel trade ties published by the EU's European Commission of Trade on June 8, 2011, Bakri MP Er Teck Hwa revealed that the report placed Malaysia at the 24th spot in a list of 50 countries in their value of import trades with Israel. It also placed the country at the 11th position for export and an overall 15th for trade with Israel.

Click on link to download the full version of the EU report (Excel file, 655 kb)

"The revelation of this document clearly shows we have trade ties with Zionist Israel," said Er in a statement to Harakahdaily, which includes snapshots of a customs-registered document bearing the serial number W20204004087.

"In the document it was clearly stated that the importer was Chayon Distributor-Computers Limited, 4, Haomanut Street, 42504, Netanya, Israel, and worse, the document has a chop of International Trade and Industry ministry," he said.

Strengthening the claim of official trade links with the regime, Er pointed that the International Air Transport Association's rate weighing system also clearly spelt out the charges for materials sent from Kuala Lumpur to Tel Aviv.

"IATA's rate weighing system is used at all entry points to the country. IATA will not display rate for countries which do not have ties with Malaysia," he stressed.

Earlier this month, Dewan Rakyat speaker denied Er (right) a chance to question International Trade and Industry Mustapa Mohamad over alleged trade ties between Malaysia and Israel following a revelation on the internet.

Er (right) revealed that a cabinet decision on November 9 as mentioned by Mustapa's deputy, Mukhriz Mahathir in his 2012 Budget debate, had apparently ignored the Customs Act in allowing multi-national companies to have transactions with Israel.

"This raises the question whether the country is faced with a big crisis so much so that laws can be set aside by the cabinet," he said.

Er further added that the revelation only confirmed UMNO's hypocrisy in its well-publicised Gaza humanitarian mission.

Last month, senior UMNO leader and Youth and Sports minister Shabery Cheek drew criticism for personally intervening to allow an Israeli kickboxer into the country, despite immigration regulations prohibitng those carrying Israeli passports.

Shabery later accused the Selangor state government of approving Ilya's participation, drawing a strong denial from Selangor's tourism exco Elizabeth Wong who maintained the PR state's support to the Palestinian cause, and pointed out that immigration matters were under the Federal government.

‘Send an army of angels to stop Umno’

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 01:44 PM PST

(FMT) - PETALING JAYA: As the polling date nears, a blogger aligned to the Islamic-based PAS is seeking divine intervention, calling on God to dispatch an army of angels to ensure that the 13th general election is not rigged.

Known by the monicker Tulang Besi, the blogger posted a prayer on his Malaysia Waves blog alongside an entry claiming that Umno is confident of recapturing Selangor since it has registered 200,000 Indonesians as voters.

The blogger, who received the information from a source, said those in the top echelons of Umno are pleased.

"Their plan to capture Selangor is running smoothly. They have given more than 200,000 identity cards to foreigners and the latter are already in the state's electoral roll.

"So be prepared to witness the fall of Selangor in the coming general election," he stated.

In his prayer posting entitled "Doa Semoga Allah gagalkan penipuan Umno dalam PRU-13", Tulang Besi also called on God to punish those involved, be it the National Registration Department, Defence Ministry, Home Ministry, Immigration Department and the Election Commission.

Below is the prayer in full:

"Ya Allah, Tuhan Semesta Alam. Yang menjadikan langit dan bumi serta menggerakkan awan. Kami hamba Mu yang lemah dan daeef sujud memohon kepada Mu. Sesungguhnya Umno dan Barisan Nasional akan menipu dan berbohong dalam Pilihanraya Umum ke 13 kelak.

Ya Allah Ya tuhan kami, pohon kami semoga Kau menurunkan Bala Tentera Malaikat Mu dan mengagalkan segenap penipuan mereka ini, Ya Allah. Pastikan setiap penipuan mereka itu memakan diri mereka sendiri.

Ya Allah, ko turunkan Bala Mu pada setiap yang bertanggungjawab di atas penipuan2 ini samada mereka duduk di dalam Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara, Kementrian Pertahanan, Kementrian Dalam Negeri, Imigresen, SPR dan mana-mana lagi. Turunkan bala ke atas mereka sekiranya mereka terus menerus mahu menipu, Ya Allah."

Rosmah targetted as well

Pakatan ahead in Perak, Selangor, KL, internal poll shows

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 01:34 PM PST

By Yow Hong Chieh,The Malaysian Insider

Pakatan Rakyat (PR) is expected to secure a majority of the federal votes in Perak, Selangor as well as Kuala Lumpur, an internal PKR poll shows.

Fifty-one per cent of respondents from Perak said they would vote for the federal opposition, along with 57 per cent in Selangor and 61 per cent in Kuala Lumpur, where PR holds 10 of the 11 parliamentary seats.

File photo of Pakatan Rakyat leaders at their convention in Shah Alam in December 2009. A recent poll shows the coalition will do well in the next general election in several states.
PR is also expected to win 40 per cent of the votes in Johor, traditionally a Barisan Nasional (BN) stronghold, according to the survey obtained by The Malaysian Insider.

This is despite Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim scoring net negative approval ratings in all but one of the four states.

The de facto PKR leader only achieved a net positive two points in Selangor with an approval rating of 44 per cent, while support was lukewarm in Kuala Lumpur (net negative one point) and weaker in Perak (net negative 16 points) and Johor (net negative 17 points).

In comparison, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak scored net positives of two, six, 10 and 34 points for Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Perak and Johor respectively.

The survey also found that support for current Perak and Johor mentris besar Datuk Seri Zambry Abdul Kadir and Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman respectively were split along racial lines.

Abdul Ghani was very well-regarded by Malay voters (net positive 44 points) but failed to strike a chord with Chinese ones (net negative 23 per cent).

Likewise, Zambry, seen positively by the Malays (net positive 27 per cent), was shunned by the Chinese (net negative 34 per cent).
