Tuan Governor…Daripada Buat Kenyataan Bodoh; Elok Diam

Minister Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim is insisting that Putrajaya never promised to abolish the Sedition Act but only to review it, two years after Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak went on record to repeal the colonial-era law.

This revelation by the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department comes amid a blitz against opposition politicians, an academic, a news portal and one of its reporters under the 1948 legislation.

Shahidan said Najib’s previous remarks that new laws would replace the Sedition Act did not mean the colonial-era law would be abolished.

Tok Shaidan,

Kita memang tahu Tok bukanlah pandai sangat. Kita tahu fakta itu. Walaupun Tok memang baik, tapi tak perlulah buat kenyataan yang kadangkala menampakkan ketidakcerdikan Tok sendiri. Bawa istighfar Tok. Bawa istighfar.

Ketidakcerdikan Tok ni memang memeranjatkan. Jangan lah Tok nak menegakkan benang yang basah.

Kalau Tok ada masa, cuba Tok tengok ucapan YAB di hadapan Bar Council. Tak apalah, mungkin Pegawai Tok pun malas nak buka website, saya letak di sini.

5.  The record of this government has been to successfully deliver on the promises of law reform that have been made. We promised the Rakyat for a more open and dynamic democracy in Malaysia, and we annulled the 3 Proclamations of Emergency which lead to the expiry of Emergency Ordinances, an action which is unimaginable by many. We promised the Rakyat for a more human-rights friendly legal environment, and we repealed the three controversial laws i.e the Internal Security Act 1971, Banishment Act 1959 and Restricted Residence Act 1933. We promised the Rakyat for a better right to freedom of speech and expression, and we amended the Printing Presses and Publication Act 1984. We said we will uphold the rights of every Rakyat to their freedom of assembly, and we abolish section 27 of the Police Act and introduce the Peaceful Assembly Act 2011. We said we want to hear constructive criticism from the Rakyat in order for us to become a better government, and we announced the intention to repeal the Sedition Act 1948.    These are the few examples to corroborate when we said ‘We walk the talk’.  Judge me not by what I say, but by what I do.

Tok, ucapan di atas memang diucapkan oleh PM. Bukan orang lain. Ucapan pun agaknya disediakan oleh Prof Khyril Anas. Tok kenal dia kan. Ala…yang….tu. Hah..yang itu. 

 

Tok elok ambik air sembahyang dan tengok balik ucapan itu. Jangan buat malu lah Tok. Jangan buat malu. 

 

Tok mungkin senyum sampai ke telinga bila orang panggil Tok ‘Governor’…konon untuk jaga Parlimen. Tak ke mana pun.

 

Jangan bercakap kalau tak tahu Tok ya…duduk diam-diam.
