Is ok YB Lim Kit Siang finally the shoot out has come has drawn Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin his gun pointing at Apco Najib

we do not sleep with jew partner(APCO), tough we can eat with them
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said today that he considered himself a “Malay first,” and then only a Malaysian, he reject Apco Najib one malaysia in totol in response to a challenge issued by DAP advisor Lim Kit Siang.

Lim had earlier this morning challenged Muhyiddin to state that he was Malaysian first, and Malay second to prove that he did indeed believe in the concept of 1 Malaysia which had been Barisan Nasional’s “unifying” slogan under the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.



“I am Malay first! But being Malay does not mean you are not Malaysian. It is not a race issue. It’s an understanding of the term gagasan. I dont think Kit Siang understands what the word gagasan means,” said the DPM.

Muhyiddin, who is also Barisan Nasional Deputy Chairman claimed that Lim’s persistence in the matter was a Pakatan Rakyat (PR) tactic to try and drive a wedge between him and Najib.

“The question of 1 Malaysia should not be brought up. When a leader talks about the interest of his own race, it does not mean he doesn’t support 1 Malaysia. 1Malaysia is based on the Constitution.”

“There is nothing wrong in leaders fighting for their own race. Don’t tell me Kit Siang does not fight for the Chinese?” he said.

Muhyiddin also accused Lim of using the benchmark of “middle Malaysia” on him, which was not applicable.

“I challenge Kit Siang to come out and say that PAS and PKR supports the concept of Middle Malaysia... can he do that? They don’t support it. It’s only a DAP slogan.”

“Look at Barisan Nasional, 13 component parties of different races and all believing in the message of 1 Malaysia. His (Kit Siang) party is a chauvinist party.”

The New Economic Model (NEM) is believed to have divided a right-wing Malay movement, which was formed to champion their privileges and ensure the Bumiputeras are not sidelined in future policies.

The Malaysian Insider understands the Malay Consultative Council (MPM) has taken an “unofficial” stand to support the NEM that was unveiled yesterday, on condition that affirmative steps taken in the New Economic Policy (NEP) remain in effect.

“We are divided in our stand, there some who are satisfied and there are those who are not satisfied... that is the current situation,” said Hasan Hamzah who leads the Bumiputera Enterpreneurs NGO Forum which is part of the MPM.

“It appears to be a 50/50 split but we will use the next two months ahead of the second report to give our views and suggestions to ensure the Malay agenda is protected without any rights ignored,” he told The Malaysian Insider last night.

Hasan’s forum comprises some 50 groups that are also part of the MPM.

MPM leaders remain tightlipped but sad they would have a joint meeting to discuss their stand.

Malay rights movement Perkasa, led by the outspoken Datuk Ibrahim Ali (picture, right), has not, as yet, issued any statements on the matter but it is understood that one will be issued later today or tomorrow.

The Independent MP’s organisation has tried to get a semblance of respectability over the weekend when it warned the ruling party Umno that it can withdraw support if the government did the same.

In its inaugural congress, Perkasa reminded the government not to sideline the Malay agenda and Bumiputeras in the NEM.

“What is important is that affirmative action in the interest of the Malays and Bumiputeras, as set out in the Federal Constitution, must continue,” said Hasan, who is also the president of the Malaysian Book Contractors Association (MBCA)

He also disclosed that about 50 per cent of its views were also included in the NEB.

“But we are not satisfied as there are other aspects that touch on the Bumiputeras. We are happy but not satisfied,” he added.

Hasan also questioned the proposal to increase the per capita income to US$15,000 (RM49,000) — where many remain mired in poverty.

“After failing to reach the target of 30 per cent, is it possible for us to achieve the new targets in the coming 10 year?

“I don’t see how we can raise the per capita income in 10 years when we just achieved US$5,000 after four decade of the NEP,” he said.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak yesterday announced the NEM with its raft of policies and suggestions to lift the country to developed nation status by 2020.

Najib, who is also Finance Minister, said the NEM will push Malaysia to be highly-competitive at the regional and international levels and benefit all Malaysians with a higher income.

He explained the government will end rent-seeking and politics of patronage that has blighted their aim to help the affected groups under the NEP, adding the NEM will be inclusive to ensure fairness to all Malaysians.

The NEM is due to be tabled in June.

Hasan expressed concern that the group targeted to double its income could just be “the surface” while the majority of the people are unable to get their share of the country’s wealth.

“After the NEP failed to reach the target of 30 per cent equity for the Malays and Bumiputeras. I think it is impossible for the community to achieve its own targets and that instead the conglomerates and large organisations will be beneficiaries.

“They just want to create an elite group that is wealthy while the majority of the people will feel pressured as they cannot keep up with the fast pace of growth,” Hasan added.

Meanwhile, Bernama quoted the former Lawmakers Council (Mubarak) chairman Tan Sri Abu Zahar Ujang as encouraging Bumiputera groups who feel sidelined in the efforts toward poverty alleviation in the NEM to complain to the authorities.

Mubarak is also part of the MPM and represents the interests of ex-Umno lawmakers.

“The Prime Minister has clearly not sidelined any groups including the Bumiputeras. If they feel sidelined by this model, the government has prepared feedback forms about the NEM,” Abu Zahar said.

He said the government will review the feedback to find the best way to ensure balanced growth in the people’s economy particularly among the Bumiputeras.
