10 Major Headlines Our New DPM Ahmad Zahid Hamidi & 慕尤丁 (Chinese)

Read this funny stuff first
http://says.com/my/fun/what-are-malaysians-saying-on-social-media-on-the-cabinetreshuffle


1. On 16 May 2013, one day after he was appointed the new Home Minister after the 13th general elections, Zahid Hamidi told Malaysians who were unhappy with the country's political system and GE13 results to leave the country


In an opinion piece published in Malay daily Utusan Malaysia, Zahid wrote, “Malaysia inherited the political system from the United Kingdom and many Commonwealth countries also use the first past the post system where political parties contesting in the election will only have one representative in each constituency with the principle of a simple majority of votes.

“Opposition leaders particularly PKR and DAP have confused the young Chinese and the politically blind followers to dress in black to protest against the 13th general election results, which they consider is in their favor because of the popular vote.

“If these people wish to adopt the list system or the single transferable vote used by countries with the republic form of government, then they should migrate to these countries to practise their political beliefs.

“Malaysia is not a country to translate their political beliefs, even if they are really loyal to this country, they should accept the political system and the existing system to form a government as enshrined in the Federal Constitution." astroawani.com



2. He openly warned a Malaysiakini journalist to not "play fire" with him and to "write according to journalism ethics" during a press conference held in conjunction with his first day as Home Minister on 20 May 2013

“You (Malaysiakini reporters) always twist statements, in fact too often. You create things which are not there. You better write the real stuff.

“I will monitor every word, every sentence, every paragraph and every news item in Malaysiakini. You don’t play fire with me. You always spin. Please try to write according to journalism ethics, okay?” he said while pointing a finger at a reporter from the news portal at a press conference in conjunction with his first day helming the ministry. themalaysianinsider.com



3. In October 2013, he was alleged to have declared a"shoot first" policy for police officers when faced with suspected gang members or criminals. He later clarified that the quote was taken out of context.


“What is the situation of robbery victims, murder victims during shootings? Most of them are our Malays. Most of them are our race,” he was quoted as saying by news portal Malaysiakini, based on a 20-minute audio recording of a speech at a security briefing event with community leaders in Ayer Keroh, Malacca.

“I think the best way is that we no longer compromise with them. There is no need to give them any more warning. If (we) get the evidence, (we) shoot first,” he added, referring to suspected criminals. themalaymailonline.com


"I was referring to what happened in Penang, where five suspected criminals were killed by the police, because according to information obtained from police intelligence revealed that the suspects were armed,” he told in an interview with news channel Astro Awani yesterday.

"Are the police only allowed to defend themselves after they are shot? If that is the case, surely a lot of police will die if they do so," he added.

"What I have stated was the readiness of the police because early information suggests that the criminals must be eradicated. To me, 'shoot first, ask questions later' does not arise. This is a wild statement made by them," Zahid said. themalaysianinsider.com



4. He was also reported to have referred to the Tiga Line underworld group as "friends" and even urged them to "do what they need to do". He also threatened journalists who were present that he will close down their newspapers if they reported his statements.

While detailing the government crackdown on underworld figures at a security briefing with community leaders in Ayer Keroh, Malacca on October 5, the home minister reportedly asserted the 6,000-plus Malay members of some gangs should not be lumped in the same category.

“The 6,171 Malays, they are not real thugs (samseng), they were Pekida members and were part of the Tiga Line group, Gang 30, Gang 7 - these are festivities (kenduri-kendara) gangsters,” Zahid was quoted saying by news portal Malaysiakini.

“I tell our Tiga Line friends, do what should be done,” he reportedly added, based on a 20-minute audio recording of the speech.

Tiga Line was one of 49 secret societies the Home Ministry had named as banned in August in a crackdown on violent crimes following several shooting sprees nationwide. themalaymailonline.com



5. In March 2014, Zahid became public enemy number one when the Home Ministry announced a ban on an Ultraman comic book over the use of "Allah" to describe the Japanese superhero

The possibly offending line on the page reads in Bahasa Malaysa: "Beliau dianggap sebagai, dan dihormati sebagai, 'Allah' atau Elder semua wira Ultra."

English translation: He is considered, and respected, as Allah or the Elder to all Ultra heroes. themalaysianinsider.com

“In that book, Allah is Ultraman. It insults Muslims,” Ahmad Zahid said. fz.com



6. In November 2014, Zahid revealed that the Home Ministry and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) are setting up a firewall to filter out websites such as YouTube so that Malaysians don't get to watch certain content


The Home Ministry is working with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to set up a firewall on websites, including YouTube, to ensure content which does not adhere to guidelines set by the Film Censorship Board is not viewed by Malaysians.

Home Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said it was vital for content on the Internet, including movies, to suit local culture and sensitivity. themalaymailonline.com
“We want to create awareness among the public, specifically film goers, that the censorship board has a social and religious responsibility to ensure movies adhere to set guidelines.” freemalaysiatoday.com



7. Also in November last year, the then Home Ministerscreened an uncensored version of an ISIS beheading video during an UMNO assembly as a form of "shock therapy" for delegates to unite against terrorist threats


English daily New Straits Times (NST) quoted the Umno vice-president as saying that the video will serve as a “warning” to the Umno delegates of a possible future for the country should they fail to unite against the threat. themalaymailonline.com
Ahmad Zahid reportedly said that the “shock therapy” was needed to show that the threat posed by the IS was real, and not imagined. “If we do not unite, this could happen here. The threat is real. If they can kill Muslims, they can also kill non-Muslims,” the New Straits Times quoted him as saying. therakyatpost.com



8. In June 2015, he announced that about 1.5 million Bangladeshi workers will be brought in over the next 3 years to meet the demands of employers from various sectors, including 500,000 this year

"We expect to sign the agreement in the month of Syawal (after July 17) in Dhaka. These workers will be involved in various fields, especially in the plantation sector and will meet the demands of the job market in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak.

"However, this initiative only involves fresh workers from Bangladesh. Illegal Bangladeshi immigrants working here are not involved and we will continue to deport them," he said in Malacca today. themalaysianinsider.com



9. At the height of the Rohingya migrant crisis in July 2015, Zahid Hamidi expressed his disappointment at the international community for blaming countries who are refusing to accept anymore refugess and urged them to help provide a solution instead

"It is disappointing when the global community reacts in this way. They should be helping to search for a solution. Instead, they blame the country which gives protection (to refugees) as if we condone human trafficking activities," he said after a buka puasa ceremony at the Simpang Renggam prison. nst.com.my


10. On 28 July 2015, Dato' Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi was appointed the new Deputy Prime Minister, replacing the former DPM Tan Sri Dato' Haji Muhyiddin Yassin in a cabinet reshuffle

慕尤丁难忘的10大头条新闻

慕尤丁尽管被革职,但人民仍须检视其过去的施政表现,作为继任者的评分标准。

独家报导
曾是首相的左右手,只在一人之下,万人之上,巫统署理主席里慕尤丁一夜间丢了副首相和教育部长两项官职,从巅峰坠入民间,政坛彷如痛失英才与好领袖。
这位资深政治领袖随后声称若是因批评1MDB而丢官,他无愧无怨,因为身为穆斯林是不能说谎的,而慕尤丁成为步上安华后尘,为大马史上第二位被革除的副首相。
慕尤丁也因此人气急升,不少社会人士纷纷声援,在一片惋惜声和力挺声浪中,不如先回顾慕尤丁在近年来的施政表现──他所掌的教育部曾获最多的拨款、他主催的教育发展大蓝图是要提升教育水平等等,然而大马教育水平和国人的英文水准等如何,众人心知肚明。当然还有做为一名副揆时,他如何为首相打点善后?
《人民邮报》精选十大新闻,或许你可以重温片刻,了解到底这位陪伴我们已久的政治领袖,是否有交过白卷!

慕尤丁指出大马教育拨款不比发达国家来得少,但学生水平在国际上何以表现不佳?

大马政府大学生每年毕业生不计其数,但毕业即失业的窘境不容忽视。慕尤丁曾于今年3月13日指出,尽管政府在教育领域投入大笔预算,占2015年财政预算案的21%,大马学生素质却无法在国际舞台上跟国外学生相比较,令他非常感慨。

“我国教育预算比一些先进国的教育拨款高出许多,联合国教育、科学与文化组织(UNESCO)可证实这点。”

当《泰晤士报高等教育》公布2015年亚洲前100名最佳大学排行榜,我国大学名落孙山。


慕尤丁身为大马人,不认同人们为了加强英语学习,而抹杀自己的语言。

大马人普遍上英语水平惨不忍睹,皆是不言而喻的尴尬。早前隆市一所名校小学,老师准备的英语考试题目竟出现文法错误,更离谱的是,英语水平低落连国家天文馆内的英文告示牌也被游客发现告示牌语句不通、语法不对。

尽管学习英语有其重要性,但曾经自诩“以马来人居先,大马人居次”的慕尤丁却为此说,不能为了英语而扼杀马来语,而他也极力捍卫政府恢复马来语教数理的决定。

“身为大马人,我不认同人们为了加强英语学习,而抹杀自己的语言。”

另外,去年爆发关闭华小风波后,引发要关闭母语源流学校以加强团结的争议,慕尤丁则大力推崇“团结学校”,他认为让孩子一起学国语会更团结

慕尤丁否认政府分配拨款不公,他举例国民型小学的水电费拨款从2000令吉增加至5000令吉。

华小师资不足,或是需动员学生到外筹款来补贴学校,俨然已成理所当然的常态。不过,慕尤丁去年11月3日在国会下议院却说,教育部是根据《国家教育大蓝图》所阐明的公平照顾各源流学校,而且各源流学校是先贤留下的遗产,政府不曾边缘化任何属下学校。

否认政府分配拨款不公,他说华小及淡小的拨款比一些落后的国小更好,特别是内陆地区、小岛及乡区国小。


慕尤丁认为泄题是陷害行动,为了影响他本人和教育部的诚信

去年9月爆发大马史无前例的小六评估考试(UPSR)英文科学试卷泄题事件,震惊全国,慕尤丁就搬出阴谋论, 认为此举是有人蓄意破坏他和教育部的诚信。

大马考试局当时决定展延考试,所有考生必须重新考试,连慕尤丁的长孙也受影响

最后此案是有数名印裔被告被控上庭问罪,自案件开审后,没有任何被告在公堂供述推翻阴谋的供证。
5.副揆:勿让人误会大马欢迎难民慕尤丁(中)谴责缅甸政府没有尽人道主义,迫使东盟成员国承担难民的责任。

时任副首相慕尤丁指出,缅甸政府应该处理罗兴亚难民风波,而不是将责任推给东盟其他国家。

“我们不能发出错误讯息,例如他们(难民)可以来这里(大马)或是受到欢迎等,这可能会造成他们成千上万人涌入,让缅甸战争重蹈覆辙。”


慕尤丁指出,消费税执行出现问题是因为我国落实的消费税有3个供应类别,因而人民感到混淆。

消费税(GST)自今年4月1日首次开跑,民怨鼎沸,有的商家和消费者皆对此不熟悉而感到混淆,甚至引发物品价格上涨现象。

时任副首相慕尤丁于今年4月25日时表示,在执行方面出现问题是预料中事,因为我国消费税制度与众不同。

他指我国GST制度是全球独一无二的,毕竟我国落实的消费税有3个供应类别,分别是标准率、零税率及豁免供应。

“世界上没有一个国家落实像大马的消费税,我们用本身的方式落实。有超过160个国家实施消费税,他们没豁免供应,一律征收(消费税)。 ”

在那之前,慕尤丁曾解释,政府征消费税不是为政府还债,反之有人向民间征税却没有上贡政府。


慕尤丁(右)出访日本,并与该国技术、科学、体育、文化和教育部长议员下村博文举行双边会谈。

慕尤丁于今年3月16日出访日本时表示,许多人都认为大马是天堂,只是一些大马人民认为大马还是不足。

他说,我国不只为人民提供工作机会,同时也为外国人提供机会,导致部分劳工非法进入我国,如今有大约200万名外劳在我国各领域工作。

“我们需要有技能的人力资源,因此我们成立大马人才机构(Talent Corp),邀请散居外国的人民回国协助国家转型。”


慕尤丁安抚民众,纳吉不在国内便由他坐镇救灾工作。

我国去年底不幸爆发洪灾,波及多个州属,灾民一度超过20万人,这场摧毁万人家园的洪灾,也让国人看透政府救援行动的效率。

首相拿督斯里纳吉在洪灾爆发时并不在国内,身在夏威夷度假与美国总统奥巴马在高尔夫球场上进行高球外交

副揆慕尤丁便挑起重任,坐镇指挥救灾工作,他也向纳吉保证有信心处理水灾救援工作,纳吉暂时无需缩短假期赶回国处理。

“我在这里,我负责。目前是我负责救灾工作,当首相不在期间,我就是代首相,负责国家的日常运作。”


慕尤丁在会上大谈对保留煽动法令的看法。

慕尤丁认为,煽动法令不应被废除

他于去年11月25日在巫统大会上表明立场,煽动法令应该被保留,但是必须进行一些改善,以对付那些发表宗教与种族敏感性言论的人士。

纳吉随后宣布保留煽动法令,并加强煽动法的执法权限,新增两项重要的元素。

然而当发生焚烧圣经、关闭华小风波时,引起事端的巫统及亲政府非政府组织领袖却没有遭到提控,令人质疑政府有选择性对付政敌之嫌。

3名变性人因“男穿女装”而在森州伊刑法下被控,他们最终在上诉庭成功改写变性人的命运。

上诉庭宣判出变性人可穿女装的标杆性裁决,并裁定森州伊斯兰刑事法违宪,慕尤丁对此判决感到震惊。

“尽管这是法庭的裁决,但这是一项特别和震惊的决定,我们截至今日都对(上訴庭判決)保持尊重。”

他认为应把此事交给总检察长和宗教局去进行上诉。
