BUDGET 2015 REJECTED BY PAKATAN HARAPAN : REAL SITUATION
1.   Opposition rejecting budget is a normal practise in parliment democracy. It's not something weird or new and has been done before by Pakatan Rakyat including PAS members of parliment. It's done after budget is presented. eventhough it's been rejected by the opposition, the budget is passed because the total no of votes from BN members of parliment is more than the opposition.

2.   PAS idea to be abstain from voting is unwise. This is because budget is about BN government's wish to implement unagreed pilicies. It's not just about revenue collection but also about priortising the usage of people's money, therefore, it's been rejected and opposed. Being abstain from voting won't help and this means attending parliment session are also meaningless.

3.   It's different this year because there are chances that this budget will be rejected when supporting votes from BN members of parliemnt is said not in full support and will vote to reject.

4.   The possibilities of this budget will be rejected created lots of reactions and confusions. Among them are preception that civil servants won't be getting their salaries, hospitals won't be receiving medicine supplies, etc. Also, there'll be a 'government lock-down', that is, a situation where the government is unable to function.

5.   In actual fact, that's not the way. Actually, budget rejection is a big slap to DS Najib and his cabinet. It can be a non confidence vote to Najib. There are chances that non confidence vote brought forward bythe Opposition Leader won't be debated by the government. Therefore, this budget rejection can do the job.

6.   Either Najib have to present an alternative budget that is agreed by the Parliment or resign and make way for a new cabinet. Pakatan Harapan is ready to face these two posibilities.

7.   While budget voting will be done on 16th November, there are sufficient time to present the budget again or form a new cabinet to prepare a new budget.

8.   Third alternative, as said by YB Dato Mahfuz Omar, DS Najib can dissolve the parliemnt to make way Election for Parliment level. Parliment can be dissolve after approving budget for 3 months. This is to guarantee for the government to function. In these 3 months, party that won the Parliment level election can form the government and prepare a new budget to be approve by the Parliment.

9.   Budget rejection should be seen as a golden opportunity to rectify this burdening budget. If a new budget is presented, amendments are able to be included. GST rate zeroed, priority is given to wipe out corruption, abolish cronisme and a more meaningful help and subsidy can be implemented.

10.  If, budget rejection means 'goernment lock down', no one will reject budget!. And, in this kind of situation, debate and approving budget will be a meaningless excercise because it's have to be   approve!. This kind of understanding will make Parliment will seen as 'rubber stamp' with possibilities that BN government will pass all it wishes to pass.

11.  Our suggestion is no party should try to create uneasiness and try to scare people about his budget rejection. It will be seen as supporting DS Najib action. If anyone wish to do this, let BN do it. Surely, BN machineries is enough to do this.

Thank you.

PINGGAN BERTINTA PANTUN Pinggan bertinda pantun adalah penanda yang menandakan kepentingan rangkap catur larik dalam masyarakat Melayu pada masa dahulu. Bagi pengumpul barangan seramik dan barangan tembikar, nama Staffordshire mungkin sinonim dengan nana-nama seperti Wedgwood, Royal Doulton dan Royal Albert . Barangan berjenama ini merupakan pinggan mangkuk meja dan pinggan hiasan serta patung hiasan kecil yang menghiasi meja-meja dan dinding-dinding di kebanyakan runah di Malaysia. Bagaimanapun, hanya sedikit yang menyedari bahawa ada di antara pinggan-pinggan ini mula dibuat di Staffordshire , sebuah mukim di West Midlands di England bagi pasaran timur, ditulis dengan pantun Melayu dalam tulisan Jawi. Mungkin seawal tahun 1826, beberapa rangkap catur larik Melayu yang baik telah dipindahkan ke pinggan oleh para pengusaha sebelum dibawa belayar untuk pasaran di dunia Melayu. Kebanyakan pinggan bertinta pantun ini merupakan pinggan makan biasa dan ada juga mempunya

LESSONS FROM ANCIENT COMEDIES There is wisdom in these seemingly silly tales Picture this. A man mistakenly gives his newborn baby a bath in boiling hot water. The child's face, grimaced and distorted, reflects her agony. In the throes of death, she fails her hands about and dies in her father's arms. This is one of the most gruesome scenes in the popular Malay folk literature series of Pak Pandir.Pak Pandir, in absurd conclusion, looks at the baby's face and thinks she is laughing with glee. Mak Andeh comes home, to find her only daughter scalded to death. How this could be considered comedy is probably beyond the comprehension of the modern audiences of today. And yet, perhaps, this is the genius of the ancient comedies in delivering the simplest of messages. That sheer stupidity can cause great grief and untold personal loss. The unthinkable makes you think. Why such tales? Perhaps comedies are prevalent in all old fables as a means to share wisdom

Henry Gurney's Final Fight Gurney's funeral procession through the streets of Kuala Lumpur on Oct 8, 1951. The place is infested with mosquitoes and one glides to a halt on Siew Mah's sweat-soaked right forearm. Yet, the guerrilla commander of Pahang's 11th Regiment and close confidante of Chin Peng remains motionless at his ambush station. His eyes and mind are transfixed on the section of narrow twisting road further in front that forms an almost perfect S-shaped bend. Siew Mah moves his head slowly to check on the positions of the rest of his 38-member platoon. The movement startles the mosquito and it quickly flies away without having the chance to draw blood. From the corner of his eyes, the commander traces the tracks connected to his three Bren-gun firing positions. Satisfied, he turns to check the crucial withdrawal route where he and his men will dissolve back into the jungle once the act had been committed. The date is
