國家權益或外資利益,孰重孰輕?

希盟民主行動黨萬津區州議員劉永山於2018年8月27日在萬津所發表的文告:

民政黨全國副主席拿督劉華才博士是要維護國家權益還是外資利益?

最近,首相馬哈迪發表要拆除關丹“萬裏長城”的言論,結果被劉華才批為欠缺敏感及沒有禮貌。他甚至擔心這會引起中國對馬來西亞的不滿。

劉華才首先不應該以偏概全,甚至虛弄造作、無限上綱。首先首相馬哈迪並不是首個為這座環繞著關丹馬中產業園的圍牆被冠以“長城”的稱號,反之這個稱號是當地民眾對這座圍牆的稱呼。

第二,馬哈迪有提到,工業園區內的中國工人不能離開圍牆以外的地方,當地人也不能隨意進入工業園。馬哈迪甚至還提到,馬來西亞政府官員也不能自由進入圍牆以內的工業園範圍。如果官員要進入,必須經過通關檢查。換句話說,如果官員沒有獲得通關檢查,他們是不能入內。如果他們硬闖,他們是屬於“犯法”。

第三,劉華才認為“長城”是中國的驕傲,因此馬哈迪的這番言論會破壞中國人民的感受。我認為劉華才的大中華情感和想像力超乎一般人豐富,甚至幾近荒謬。

Revoking the ban on AP to import plastic waste ought to be exercise carefully

Media statement by PH-DAP ADUN for Banting, Selangor LAU Weng San on 20th August 2018 in Banting:

I am aware that the Ministry of Housing and Local Government has decided to revoke and lift the ban on the issuance of Approved Permits (AP) for importers to import HS Code 3915 plastic waste for plastic recycling plants operating at Free Trade Zones (FTZ) and licensed manufacturing warehouse (LMW)-status plants with immediate effect, in which such decision in my personal sincere opinion must be exercised carefully with huge caution.

While I am also aware that such decision was made to allow plastic recyclers operating in certain area, ie FTZ and LMW-status plants in Malaysia to continue to import plastic waste under the heading of HS Code 3915 which is claimed to be homogeneous, clean and not scheduled waste and is an important raw material in the recycling process, I also urge the ministry to consider the following in alleviating the fears of the people, especially the people of Kuala Langat, that such decision would not allow the return of illegal factories which had previously caused severe air pollution in the district.

政府必須提供更多關於第三國產車的詳情

希盟民主行動黨萬津區州議員劉永山於2018年8月12日在萬津所發表的文告:

政府必須針對第三國產車計劃必須讓各成員黨領袖能夠充分了解其計劃的詳情和內容,以便能夠在希盟內部取得更多共識,確保這項計劃是全新的國產車計劃,甚至是脫胎換骨的國產汽車工業計劃。

如是新國產車計劃是私人領域投資,並不涉及政府資金。這樣,國產車計劃不再是政府的投資計劃,反而虧盈由私人企業承擔,看來並問題不大。

國人必須知道的是,馬來西亞的收入來源迄今還是以石油棕油等支撐。這是相當不健康的,因為製造業只是佔國家總收入四分之一左右。

希盟政府要提升國家整體收入,製造業務必成為國家的經濟命脈之一,尤其是當下許多工業國家已經紛紛轉型為工業4.0(即把製造業和人工智慧結合),因此不能完全忽略製造業的重要性。

雖然先進國家如德國、日本和英國等經濟體的知識經濟和服務業對國民生產總值的貢獻已有所提升,但是製造業依然還是這些國家經濟命脈。

冀房地部透露地方選舉要花多少錢?

希盟民主行動黨萬津區州議員劉永山於2018年8月5日在萬津所發表的文告:

聯邦房地部部長朱萊達於7月31號在國會下議院回答問題時表示聯邦政府鑑於必須動用大筆資金,因此在未來三年不會進行任何地方政府選舉。我對部長的答案表示密切關注。

朱萊達的答案分為兩個部分:第一、即聯邦政府必須研究相關法令,以掃除推行地方政府選舉所可能面對的法律障礙。第二、即由於目前聯邦政府入不敷出,況且推動地方政府選舉預計需要消耗大筆資金,因此在未來三年都無法推行地方政府選舉。

對於法律障礙,部長或許有必要更詳細地告訴國人,除了廢除《1976年地方政府法令》地15條文以及或許恢復《1960年地方政府選舉法令》以外,聯邦政府和州政府還必須跨越什麼主要法律障礙才能推行地方政府選舉?

How much do we need to spend to conduct a nationwide local government elections?

Media statement by PH-DAP ADUN for Banting, Selangor LAU Weng San on 5th August 2018 in Banting:

I am concerned with the parliamentary replies given by the Minister for Housing and Local Government, YB Zuraidah Kamaruddin on 31st July that the federal government will not conduct local government elections for the next three years in view of the huge expenses that may be incurred.

Zuraidah’s reply was separated into two, first there was a reply that the government needs further studies on all related legal provisions on local government election in order to facilitate and remove all hindrances to the smooth operation of it. Secondly, that the government could not conduct such elections in three years to come in view of the huge expenses likely to be incurred at times when the federal government is facing financial difficulties.

Perhaps it will be good if the Minister can explain that besides the abolishing s.15 of the 1976 Local Government Act and reviving the 1960 Local Government Election Acts, what other major legal hindrances that the federal government must overcome in order to conduct such elections

詳讀希盟宣言

網絡和社交媒體曾經一度充斥大量的垃圾假新聞,嚴重破壞媒體生態環境。孰不知,在標題黨和速食新聞大行其道的年代,這等無需邏輯思考消化的“新聞”已逐漸成為主流,危害真實新聞的傳播。

當許多鍵盤戰士熱衷於未經仔細研究就轉發大量假新聞甚至是以假亂真的過時新聞之際,本文要稍微解讀的就是一直成為輿論熱烈討論的對象——《希盟競選宣言》,即以下爭議性的課題:

(一)承認獨中統考文憑、
(二)提高石油生產州石油稅收至20吧仙、
(三)暫時豁免畢業生償還PTPTN高教貸款、
