Ezam: PM must prove himself by next election

Soon Li Tsin | May 31, 08 5:54pm
Mohamad Ezam Md Nor has given Abdullah Ahmad Badawi a deadline - by the next general election - to prove he is sincere about pursuing a reform agenda for Umno.



In an interview with Malaysiakini today, the former PKR Youth chief said the prime minister must initiate clear signs that reforms will happen or else he will lose his support.

Ezam, expelled by Umno in 1998, submitted his lifetime membership form to Abdullah on Monday on grounds he was attracted to the latter’s anti-graft agenda.

In this first of a two-part interview, Ezam speaks about the history behind meeting Umno leaders back in 2004, why he has no loyalty to anybody and the reasons why Umno appeals to him again.

Can you tell us the real story on how you joined Umno?

There is a huge difference with what is being said about me meeting Umno leaders before the recent general election and the one before the 2004 election on my decision to join Umno. In 1999, after I was arrested under ISA (Internal Security Act), there were no efforts to pull me back into Umno. Later, there were attempts to get me to leave PKR and join Umno. I reject it at that time. My principle was that I will not make a deal while I am still in prison.

I was released in 2003 and Abdullah Ahmad Badawi became prime minister. He is different from Dr Mahathir (Mohamad). Mahathir’s approach is to pressure where by the more you fight him, the more he will pressure you. But Abdullah’s approach is to pull. That is why during the 2004 election, there were attempts to pull me back to Umno.

I saw that as an opportunity then to deal for Anwar Ibrahim’s freedom, at least to allow him to seek medical treatment overseas. At that time, Anwar was in critical condition. After discussing with other party members, they felt that priority must be given to save Anwar’s life. So we decided to initiate discussions with Umno leaders.

Those I met included Dr Mohd Khir Toyo, Muhammad Muhd Taib (both former Selangor MBs) and Abdul Aziz Shamsuddin (former minister). This was carried out with Anwar’s knowledge. In my second meeting with Khir Toyo, Anwar told me to bring along PKR leaders to the discussion as witnesses - Kamarul Baharin Abbas, Abdul Rahman Osman and Johari Abdul. Four of us went to meet Khir Toyo and I led the discussions. This was all before the 2004 general election.

So we met at Khir Toyo’s house and our stand was any deal must start with freeing Anwar, at least to get him medical treatment. When Khir Toyo could not commit, we backed out. He told us to contest and join the party but we said no. We are not interested in what we will get. Our focus is clear.

Then we met with Aziz with 12 other people and the same thing happened. He could not commit so I ended the conversation there. Some friends carried on the negotiations and joined Umno but I can understand that those were tough days and they had financial problems. I could not stop them but we’re still friends. I see that as a form of betrayal.

After the 2004 election, Anwar’s health got worse. BN won big and Dr Wan Azizah (Wan Ismail) then asked me to work on getting Anwar out and to open negotiations. We tried all sorts of ways. I met with Rahmah Osman (former deputy minister) who was then close to Abdullah and who was sympathetic to us. We sent a group of people to see the Muslim muftis (clerics) and Umno leaders close to the PM but the message did not reach him.

One day, a foreign reporter told me, ‘if you want to get to the PM, you get Khairy (Jamaluddin)’. I didn’t know Khairy. I must put this on record since there are so many allegations about me and him. This was about May or June 2004. So I tried to find Khairy through contacts in London and in the end I got it and I met him. That’s where my relationship with Khairy started.

I told him about our concerns for Anwar’s health and to pass this message to PM. After two meetings, he arranged a meeting between Wan Azizah and PM at PM’s office. I don’t know the details as I did not go in but it was basically about Anwar’s health. The first concern was to put Anwar permanently in hospital because at that time he was being tranferred in and out of prison. Right then, Abdullah picked up the phone, called the health minister and ordered to take Anwar out on the spot. We also asked for Anwar to receive overseas treatment but he was non-committal about that. Then lastly, we asked Abdullah not to interfere with Anwar’s trial unlike Mahathir. He gave his commitment not to interfere with the trial.

I still met with Khairy after that to get Anwar overseas medical treatment. Khairy tried and there was an agreement to send Anwar for treatment in Singapore instead of Germany. At first Wan Azizah did not agree but when I met Anwar, he said okay. According to Khairy, Abdullah agreed to this but the attorney-general challenged that it was against the provisions of the laws. So it did not materialise.

After a while, the court fixed a date for the appeal so we ceased discussions until the judgment. As it turned out, Anwar was released so as a courtesy I told Khairy about it and he asked if there was anything else he could do. I asked Anwar and Anwar said he wanted his passport back. So I told Khairy and that night alone, Khairy came over to Anwar’s house with the passport. So that is the incident when Khairy visited Anwar’s house.

I want to stress, the entire process was about saving Anwar’s life, not about any deal. I thought Anwar would come to my defence when people linked me to Khairy because they all knew. In fact I rejected all offers and remained steadfast to get Anwar out. After Anwar was free, there were no more dealings. I did not meet Khairy again. In fact he was afraid to see me because he was suffering from fierce criticisms at that time. We ceased our relationship.

In 2005, I had problems with the party and I started to distant myself from the party and set up Gerak (People’s Anti-Corruption Movement). There was no deal until this general election in March. Before this, friends tried to get me back into Umno but I rejected them all. Friend from PAS sincerely wanted me to contest in a safe seat in Kelantan but I rejected that too. Why? Because I was focused on reforms.

In 2008, there were invitation for me to run but I rejected those offers because I did not see any reforms in Umno worth joining back. At that time, I felt I was pushing for reforms more effectively through civil society with Gerak. After the new election tsunami, efforts were made by Abdullah and that is a significant move for reforms on the judiciary and corruption. I said these reforms are fundamental and I’m confident that it will open up the space and that’s why they arranged a meeting between me and Abdullah about a month ago.

If you want to call it a deal then, that’s the first deal to join Umno. After a two-hour meeting, I truly believe he is committed to reforms and he asked me to join Umno. It took me a week to discuss and talk it over with friends and family, so I made my decision in the end to join Umno. This is the whole process that took place.

What level do you think you need to be in the party or cabinet position to execute the reforms?

I don’t have any plans or ambition to contest for any post because I am focused on how I can help with reforms. I did not ask Abdullah for anything. All I ask is that I want to be given a position that allows me to strengthen reforms. But so far I have no plans and there are no clear offers from Abdullah or Najib to me whether in the party or the government.

If Abdullah’s reforms do not take of, as proven by his track record in the past like the Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission (IPCMC) andthe judiciary, what will you do then? Will you ask for more power in Umno?

I want to stress this, though it would be very controversial. I have no loyalty to any party or individual. My loyalty and commitment is to the idea of reform because this was taught by our great fighters and prophets. I support Umno because of those reforms and if reforms fail to happen, I will retract my support and make a different decision.

So you are sincere and you believe that Abdullah is truly sincere in fulfilling his commitment to free the ACA and the judiciary?

We never really know what people’s intentions are. People ask why don’t I just commit with the opposition who say the same reforms. In the past, we did not have a choice because only the opposition spoke about reforms. The government did not say anything about this. Now the government has (a reform agenda). To choose between reforms by those with power is not because of the power itself, but its effectiveness.

Do you still believe in Abdullah’s reforms if he says the ACA will be independent but Nazri Abdul Aziz say that it should not be placed under Parliament?

I am also worried and I have expressed this to Abdullah. He said he is still waiting for the full report from ACA and he remains steadfast that ACA must be free because he knows that if it fails, he will be criticised even worse. He really understands that and to him, it's nothing less than making it independent.

Was this a condition - for you to be in Umno so he would initiate reforms?

No. He feels that I would play a more effective role if I were in Umno. It was not easy to leave civil society and step back into politics. I saw a need for a strong element within the party to push for this because people on the outside will always be skeptical.

When Wan Azizah said she was surprised, I was surprised. Because Anwar did the same thing when he joined Umno. He criticised the government, went to jail and then join Umno. But there is a difference between me joining Umno now than Anwar joining Umno previously. This is because Umno today has a better reform agenda than when Anwar was in Umno. When Anwar joined Umno, he had no commitment for an independent judiciary or ACA. I am joining Umno that is more committed to reforms than before. From that reform angle, my decision makes more sense than Anwar’s.

Do you have a deadline as to when Abdullah must prove he is sincere with his reforms?

I think it’s not only my deadline but the people’s deadline, I think it’s just before the next general election the latest. There must be at least clear signs that these reforms will really happen. If not, not just me but the entire country and voters will retract their support. Reforms must shape by then because otherwise, it would be meaningless. This is his responsibility.

Do you think you are being ‘used’ to prop up Abdullah’s weakening reputation within the party?

I rejoined Umno on the ground of reforms and not on the individual. If it is the individual I would not join now. I would have joined in 2004 when Abdullah was still strong. People who join parties when the leader is strong always harbour political motives but I’m not like that. I am pro-truth, not pro-winner.

It is not whether Abdullah is the winner or loser, it is whether he is honest about his reforms and efforts. This is the same when I supported Anwar when he was in prison. He was not a winner, he was a loser. It was because I believed in him then. I want to keep on moving even if Abdullah is facing pressures from all quarters. My concern is on reforms.



Menuntut ilmu wajib ke atas setiap muslim - hadith sahih

Pemikiran Lim Guan Eng

"Saya ingin mencontohi Umar Abd Aziz" - Lim Guan Eng

Alangkah hebatnya jika Lim Guan Eng seorang Islam.

Majoriti pemimpin Islam lebih gemar mengupas kandungan Al Quran daripada mengamalkannya.

Lim Guan Eng mengamalkan sebahagian tuntutan al Quran, walaupun tidak membacanya.

Pandangan Mohd Azmin Ali

Wartawan utusan Malaysia [ 31 Mei 2008, ms 10] menyatakan tokoh paling menonjol dalam persidangan Parlimen 2008 ialah Mohamed Azmin Ali [PKR - Gombak].

Nama-nama yang dianggap besar seperti Datuk Mukhriz Mahathir dan Khairy Jamaluddin gagal menyerlah kerana mereka sekadar bangun membaca teks pada sesi perbahasan.

Bagaimana pula dengan tokoh-tokoh pembangkang yang lain?

Pandangan Ezam 1

Tonggak demokrasi: Kebebasan bersuara - Ezam

Ezam Bukan Pengkhianat

oleh: Hishamudin Rais
http://aminiskandar.wordpress.com


Saya cukup hairan dan marah apabila ada yang menuduh Mat Ezam sebagai seorang pengkhianat. Ini bukan kerana saya hendak bodek Mat Ezam. Saya hanya cuba menerangkan hal duduk perkara. Malah saya cukup hairan kenapa akhbar tabloid Le Fou Total terperanjat gadang apabila Mat Ezam masuk menjadi anggota gerombolan United Malays National Organisation.

Sesiapa yang hairan atau terperanjat mereka adalah ahli-ahli politik poyo. Ngok tak tahu membaca politik macam le chef de fou Zainuddin Maidin.

Saya tahu siapa Mat Ezam ini. Dua tahun saya berkongsi satu sel dengan dia. Ezam bukan Mat Ezam poyo. Dia bukan pengkhianat garis perjuangan. Mat Ezam sampai hari kiamat pun tidak akan mengkhianati garis perjuangan yang menjadi akidah hidupnya.

Cuba ingat betul-betul dan ingatkan apa yang selalu di ceramahkan oleh Mat Ezam. Bukankah Mat Ezam selalu berkata - dia akan melawan penindasan dan berjuang untuk kumpulan yang tertindas. Dia akan tampil ke hadapan untuk membantu kumpulan minoriti yang tertindas. Malah dia pernah berceramah sampai terpancut-pancut suaranya hendak meniru-niru bunyi suara Kamarad Karl Marx dengan kata-kata – contre l’ oppresion de l’homme par l’homme.


Memasuki gerombolan United Malays National Organisation adalah garis politik Mat Ezam yang tepat. Gerombolan United Malays National Organisation sesudah PRU ke 12 adalah gerombolan yang sedang tertindas. Menyokong dan sama-sama sebaris berjuang dengan gerombolan minoriti yang tertindas dan sesak nafas adalah tugas dan garis politik Mat Ezam.

Ini bukan khianat namanya. Ini garis politik yang tepat. Kita semua wajib belajar dari Mat Ezam. Kita patut bangun untuk sama-sama menyokong gulungan minoriti yang tertindas. Berjuang sebaris dengan mereka yang tertindas adalah sebahagian dari iman. Yang sebahagian lagi iman kita ialah berdoa untuk dapat projek. Ini bukan cakap saya ini. Saya pungut hadis sahih ini dari Ibnu Iwana al- Kontoli dari kitab Al-Fikarabun yang sama-sama saya baca dengan Mat Ezam semasa di Kamunting.

Menyokong sesiapa yang hendak rebah adalah garis yang tepat yang telah diambil oleh Mat Ezam. Apakah masih ada warga yang tidak menyedari dan tidak percaya bahawa gerombolan United Malays National Organisation sedang tertindas? Ada sesiapa yang masih jurang jelas? Kalau masih ada yang tidak faham, maka mengikut kitab Al-Fikarabun , kumpulan yang tidak faham ini tergulung kepada pengikut mazhab sesat lagi menyesatkan.

Bayangkan - tidak lama lagi gerombolan United Malays National Organisation akan tegak berseorangan. MCA, MIC dan Gerakan sedang merancang hendak memasuki Pakatan Rakyat. Mereka semua ini telah sanggup murtad untuk mengikut Tuan Syeikh baru mereka. Rakyat Sabah dan Serawak sedang berduyun-duyun lari membuat IC baru dan bercadang untuk meninggalkan Malaysia.

Syabas Mat Ezam – saudara jujur dengan garis perjuangan membantu yang lemah dan melawan yang gagah. Saudara cukup sedar bahawa Mat Dolah sekarang adalah pemimpin yang paling lemah dalam sejarah politik tanah air. Saudaralah pembantu setianya. Tupang pembawa rebahnya.

Fakta politik sedang menunjukkan bahawa dalam gerombolan United Malays National Organisation Mat Dolah sedang dalam proses hendak disingkirkan. Kita semua tahu Mat Najib sedang menyusun baris mengepung Mat Dolah. Dalam masa yang sama Muhyiddin juga sedang berura-ura untuk menibai Mat Dolah dari belakang. Ini semua adalah bentuk-bentuk penindasan yang sedang dihadapi oleh Mat Dolah. Inilah tugas suci Mat Ezam dengan rela hati datang membantu Mat Dolah yang sedang ditindas.

Di luar gerombolan ini ada pula Mahafiraun yang tidak henti-henti menyalak dan menggigit punggung Mat Dolah. Maka di sini satu lagi peranan agung Mat Ezam. Membantu yang lemah dan menolong yang tersepit dan yang sedang di salak Mahafiraun.

Tentang Mahafiraun ini Mat Ezam cukup cemuh. Mat Ezam pernah menerangkan kepada saya – jika jumpa Mahafiraun dan jumpa Mat Dolah ketuk kepala Mukhriz dulu. Inilah kata-kata hikmat dari Mat Ezam yang sampai kiamat akan saya ingati.

Saya cukup marah apabila menerima sms yang cuba menghina Mat Ezam. Sms ini cuba menuduh Mat Ezam ini sama seperti Raja Katak. Ini tidak betul. Mat Ezam tidak melompat. Mat Ezam melutut. Ini juah bezanya. Melompat ke atas seperti katak. Melutut ke bawah seperti Mat Ezam. Jadi tolong jangan samakan Mat Ezam dengan Ibrahim Ali. Mat Ezam ada kelas.

Saya juga meminta semua fitnah dan tohmah tentang Mat Ezam di hentikan serta-merta. Cerita tentang Mat Ezam datang membantu Mat Dolah memang betul. Tetapi kini telah wujud analisa politik cekai yang berunsur fitnah tersebar. Rasa saya konco-konco Mat Najib yang bertanggungjawab menyebarkan fitnah ini. Konco-konco Mat Najib menganggap Mat Ezam datang kerana arahan bos lamanya untuk membantu Mat Dolah. Ini fitnah. Mereka kurang arif dengan tujuan suci Mat Ezam.

Saya juga di fahamkan bahawa Rafidah cukup gembira dengan kedatangan Mat Ezam. Saya dengar kenduri talkin akan diadakan di Kuala Kangsar, kawasan parlimen Rafidah untuk menyambut Mat Ezam. Dari apa yang saya difahamkan Mat Ezam telah menelefon Rafidah. Dengan manja sekali Mat Ezam telah bersedia untuk menghadiahkan sebuah kotak harta karun yang ada pada Mat Ezam. Saya dengar khabar kotak ini ada menyimpan kasut Rafidah yang patah ketika Rafidah berlari-lari untuk mencium punggung Mahathir ketika Mahathir menangis dahulu.

Satu kotak lagi akan dihadiahkan kepada Nazri Aziz. Saya dengar khabar kotak untuk Nazri ini bersisi lesen-lesen teksi. Sebuah lagi kotak untuk Noh Omar yang penuh dengan surat pajak. Lesen-lesen teksi dan surat-surat pajak ini telah dikumpulkan oleh Mat Ezam ketika dia menyamar sebagai pegawai pencegah rasuah pada satu ketika dahulu.

Saya sedar memang ramai orang tidak mengetahui bahawa ketika Mat Ezam menyamar macam Inspektor Jacques Clouseau dulu dia telah melakukan satu yang amat tragik. Biar saya nyatakan di sini satu rahsia yang begitu lama saya simpan. Menurut Mat Ezam tiga lagi kotak yang dicari-cari oleh pihak polis itu dipenuhi dengan gambar-gambar dan video rakaman Altantuya yang sedang bershopping dengan Dotty di Paris.

Dari mulut Mat Ezam sendiri saya telah di beritahu bahawa video ini telah di rakamkan oleh KGB. Bagaimana pita ini sampai ke tangan Mat Ezam saya juga kurang arif. Apa tujuan KGB memberikan pita rakaman dan gambar-gambar Altantuya di Paris wallah hu alam bisawwab - hanya Lingam sahaja yang maha mengetahui. Apa hubungan Mat Ezam dengan KGB ini saya pun tidak pasti. Tapi menurut Mat Ezam ada seorang pengendali laman web yang telah membuat salinan video ini untuk ‘safe keeping’.

Saya cukup bengang dengan Minah sepupu Mat Najib yang ingin bertanyakan tiga soalan untuk Mat Ezam. Siapa Minah ini? Apakah locus pocus Minah ini untuk menyoal Mat Ezam. Ini mesti atas arahan sepupunya. Saya yakin Mat Ezam pasti akan bertanya kembali kepada Minah ini nanti – wahai Minah, mana dia laporan kewangan Sukom yang sampai hari ini belum di audit? Pasti menggigil bra Minah ini nanti bila Mat Ezam mula menyoal. Jangan play play, ini Mat Ezam. Dia bukan Kancil dia Wira.

Saya paling menyampah melihat sikap Angkatan Muda Keadilan yang menjadikan Mat Ezam ini seperti selipar buruk. Sudah dipakai ditinggalkan. Ini betul-betul kurang hormat. Minah di Lorong Haji Taib pun kalau sudah pakai kena bayar. Angkatan Muda Keadilan telah murtad terhadap ketua mereka.

Sepatutnya Mat Ezam yang begitu gah dan berpengaruh pasti ada beratus-ratus ahli Angkatan Muda yang akan berduyun-duyun mengikut buntut Mat Ezam. Tetapi ini tidak berlaku. Angkatan Muda Keadilan telah menghina Mat Ezam sama seperti gerombolan United Malays National Organisation menghina Tun Dr. Mahathir bekas Presiden mereka yang keluar dari gerombolan. Mat Ezam terkonteng-konteng dengan empat lima Pak Pacak ketika membuat sidang akbar. Kenapa Mat Ezam seekor Wira dikulupkan. Apa punya turrr Angkatan Muda Keadilan ini.

Ada satu perkara yang amat-amat memilukan hati saya apabila Mat Ezam masuk ke dalam gerombolan United Malays National Organisation ini. Saya tertanya-tanya apakah yang akan terjadi kepada kawan baik saya si Lokman Adam yang bersama-sama di Kamunting dahulu. Lokman selalu ke hulu ke hilir berceramah dan buka cerita tentang strategi perjuangan Parti Keadilan Rakyat. Ini modal cari makan Lokman Adam.

Apabila Mat Ezam memasuki gerombolan United Malays National Organisation ke mana agaknya Lokman Adam nak cari makan kerana Mat Ezam juga akan ke hulu ke hilir dengan modal yang sama. Mat Ezam seharusnya bersimpati dengan sahabat lamanya Lokman Adam. Saya berharap mereka akan berkongsi kembali cari makan sama-sama agar sorro tidak miss.

Kelentong ke hulu kelentong ke hilir
Mat Ezam mencegah rasuah
Hujah dahulu hujah lendir
Kini Mat Ezam dah pandai rasuah.

Ezam masuk UMNO

Seronok juga membaca analisa seorang blogger bernama antikhairy.
http://antikhairy.blogspot.com



Hari ini heboh satu negara mengenai isu kemasukkan bekas Ketua Angkatan Muda PKR, Ezam Mohd Noor kedalam UMNO. Semuanya bermula apabila akhbar The Star melaporkannya.

Dalam laporan laman web Malaysiakini, Ezam berkata beliau berada diluar negara dan akan membuat kenyataan mengenai perkara tersebut selepas pulang minggu hadapan.

Walau bagaimanapun, beliau tidak menafikan desas-desus mengenai kemasukan beliau kedalam UMNO.

Dalam laporan The Star, Ezam dikatakan masuk semula kedalam UMNO setelah mendapat lampu hijau daripada pimpinan tertinggi UMNO.

Ketua Penerangan UMNO juga dalam kenyataan beliau hari ini mengalu-alukan kemasukan Ezam yang juga aktif dalam GERAK, sebuah NGO yang memperjuangkan Malaysia bebas dari rasuah. Klik disini.

Siapa dibelakang semua ini?

Jawapannya tidak lain tidak bukan ialah menantu kepada PM, Khairy Jamaluddin.

Siapa bersama menantu PM dalam usaha untuk membawa Ezam masuk UMNO?

Tidak lain tidak bukan ialah Datuk Norza Zakaria, orang kuat menantu PM.

Apa tujuan Ezam dibawa masuk UMNO?

Tidak lain tidak bukan untuk memastikan Pak Lah terus berkuasa dan membunuh saki-baki pengaruh Tun Dr. Mahathir didalam UMNO.

Mengapa Ezam?

Sebelum ini memang sudah ada beberapa kali pemimpin PKR yang menyertai UMNO. Hamdan Taha, Zahid Mat Arip, Ruslan Kasim, Hanafiah Man dan beberapa orang lagi telah menyertai semula UMNO sebelum pilihanraya umum 2004 dan sepanjang tempoh pemerintahan Abdullah Badawi dari 2004-2008.

Akan tetapi kemasukan mereka-mereka ini menyertai semula UMNO tidak mempunyai nilai "berita" dan tidak memberi apa-apa makna kepada UMNO.

Parti yang ditinggalkan mereka juga tidak menjadi lemah malahan menjadi semakin kuat selepas tiadanya orang-orang seperti Hamdan Taha, Zahid Mat Arip, Hanafiah Man dan beberapa orang lagi.

Dengan kemasukkan Ezam kedalam UMNO, kekuatan Pak Lah dan menantunya akan bertambah didalam UMNO. Seperti yang diketahui umum, Ezam adalah seorang yang komited dalam perjuangan untuk melawan rasuah. Beliau pernah ditahan ISA dan ditahan di Penjara Kajang oleh kerana mendedahkan rasuah pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO.

Selain daripada menakutkan penentang-penentang Pak Lah didalam UMNO, sekaligus akan menguatkan kembali kem Pak lah dan menantunya didalam UMNO.

Apa peranan Norza Zakaria?



Satu ketika dahulu kami pernah mendedahkan bagaimana Norza Zakaria "membeli" Anuar Mohd Noor pengendali laman web www.umno-reform.com dan blog http://www.arahkita.blogspot.com dengan harga RM 200, 000. Anuar Mohd Noor "dibeli" oleh Norza untuk menjaga Institut Kajian Asas Kemasyarakatan (INSKA).

INSKA adalah sebuah badan "think-thank" yang menjadi pemikir kepada Norza Zakaria untuk menjayakan agenda menantu PM.

Ezam Mohd Noor yang merupakan pengerusi GERAK telahpun meletakkan jawatannya baru-baru ini didalam satu mesyuarat tergempar GERAK yang dihadiri oleh kesemua Ahli Lembaga Pengarah GERAK dan menyerahkan jawatan tersebut kepada Mohd. Nazree Yunus.

Siapa Mohd Nazree Yunus?

Beliau adalah Koordinator kepada INSKA yang dipimpin oleh Anuar Mohd Noor. Apabila Mohd Nazree menjadi Pengerusi GERAK, maka jelas tangan Anuar Mohd Noor akan berada didalam NGO Anti Rasuah tersebut.

Bila tangan Anuar Mohd Noor berada dalam GERAK, ertinya tangan Norza juga berada disitu. Bila ada Norza, sudah pastilah menantu PM juga ada saham.

Nampak tak "kelicik"kan mereka?

Dengan ini, GERAK akan menjadi salah satu lagi senjata bagi menantu PM untuk membunuh musuh-musuh politik Pak Lah.

Mudah sahaja, dengan satu laporan rasuah GERAK kepada BPR, siasatan akan dimulakan dan mana-mana musuh Pak Lah akan menghadapi tuduhan rasuah.

Dengan ini penentang-penentang Pak Lah akan mengalami "sindrom takut" dan tidak berani untuk memberi sokongan kepada Ku Li atau mana-mana pemimpin yang akan mencabar beliau dalam Pemilihan Agung UMNO yang akan datang.

Selain daripada itu, menantu PM juga dapat memenangi jawatan Ketua Pemuda UMNO tanpa bertanding. Dato' Seri Khir Toyo dan Dato' Mukhriz juga mungkin terpaksa berundur jika Ezam berada dalam UMNO. Ezam akan mengarahkan GERAK untuk mencari apa-apa isu rasuah yang boleh dikaitkan dengan Khir Toyo atau Mukhriz.

Jika laporan BPR dibuat, sama ada benar atau tidak, imej kedua-dua tokoh tersebut pasti akan tercalar dan persepsi buruk akan dilihat oleh perwakilan UMNO kepada mereka.

Masihkah kita terlupa siapa yang membawa menantu PM ke rumah Anwar Ibrahim untuk menyerahkan passport? Ezam lah orang itu. Melayu jangan cepat lupa sangat....

Apakah kemasukkan Ezam kedalam UMNO adalah perancangan menantu PM dan Anwar? Saya pun belum pasti. Tetapi boleh dilihat pertaliannya. Seperti yang sedia maklum, ramai orang-orang UMNO percaya Khairy Jamaluddin mempunyai "deal" dengan Anwar Ibrahim.

Kita boleh lihat bagaimana Anwar yang jarang menyerang Pak Lah. Fokus Anwar lebih tertumpu kepada menyerang Datuk Seri Najib dan Tun Dr. Mahathir.

Apa-apa pun setakat ini blog Anti Khairy hanya mahu mendedahkan bagaimana menantu PM, Norza Zakaria dan INSKA berperanan membawa Ezam masuk kedalam UMNO.

1 million hits for Dr M's blog in just 30 days

Friday May 30, 2008 MYT 4:16:01 PM
By FLORENCE A. SAMY
thestar.com.my

PETALING JAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's blog, www.chedet.com has hit over one million hits in just 30 days.

The former premier started his blog on May 1 to pen his thoughts and opinions, which has also included criticisms of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.

His blog named Dr Mahathir Mohamad had over 985,000 visitors on Thursday, a figure that has jumped to 1,015,766 at 12.50pm Friday. Also listed on his blog are event updates and related newspaper articles.

Congratulatory comments poured in for Dr Mahathir for the one million hit with some calling him "an official millionaire now."

Recently, Dr Mahathir posted his frustrations with Umno and claimed he was not treated as a member before he resigned. He also claimed that Umno was heading down the path of destruction if the current leadership and mentality did not change.

In his latest posting Friday, Dr Mahathir talked about his meetings in Tokyo and England on war criminalisation and appealed to Malaysians to support this campaign.

"It is ridiculous to regard murder as a crime punishable with the most extreme penalty yet the deliberate killings of thousands of people, mostly innocent men, women and children are regarded as proper and legal.

"There is a contradiction here which does not fit in with human values in a civilised world. War is not a way to settle conflicts between nations," he said in his blog.

He said trillions of dollars were being spent on developing and producing more lethal weapons of mass destruction and some poor countries were forced to buy them so as not to be less well-equipped than their neighbours.

"These weapons are often not used at all. Malaysia has been drawn into this game," he said, referring to the billion-ringgit submarine purchase.

Malaysia, he said, needed a defence force to preserve its independence and not an arms race.

"War is not a solution for our foreign policy agenda. A stiff backbone is far more important. Unfortunately at the moment we don’t have that," he quipped.

In appealing to Malaysians to support the campaign on war criminalisation, Dr Mahathir said there was no guarantee that war will not happen here in the future if it was still regarded as a way to settle conflicts between nations.
