Kenangan Lalu - Flybaits

 

Benarkah ini di hadapanku 
Sekeping hati yang pernah kurayu 
Datang dengan wajah yang pilu 
Ku terharu 

Kiranya kini membawa kisah 
Kau cuba lupakan kenangan lalu 
Kupandang wajahmu penuh kasih 
Kau menangis 

Tiada akan kutanya mengapa 
Kerna ku tahu sikapmu 
Tak sekejam dulu oh... 
Tidakkah kau mengerti hatiku 
Ku tak pedulikan sejarah cintamu 

Ku terima dirimu oh kasihku 

Hiduplah cinta antara kita 
Tinggalkanlah kisah yang sudah-sudah 
Terimakasih duhai cahayaku 
Oh cahayaku

News From Bloomberg.

July 16 (Bloomberg) -- Malaysian opposition leader Anwar
Ibrahim was arrested following accusations he had sex with a
male aide, 10 years after he was jailed for a similar charge
that was later quashed. Stocks and the ringgit extended declines.

Anwar, 60, was detained near his home in Kuala Lumpur by 20
masked officers, his office said. He wasn't given a reason for
the arrest, according to his lawyer Sankara Nair. Police are due
to hold a press conference later in the capital.

The former deputy prime minister denies the accusations and
says the current case is fabricated to destroy his plan to
topple Premier Abdullah Ahmad Badawi in two months. A decade ago,
Anwar's detention triggered street riots and today's arrest will
generate more popular support for his cause, analysts said.

``This will certainly increase sympathy for him,'' said
Ibrahim Suffian, director of the Merdeka Center, an independent
research institute near Kuala Lumpur. ``If he stays in jail and
some kind of charge is introduced, we'll be resetting the clock
back to 1998. This may well be the single action that tips
people over to Anwar.''
The People's Justice Party, which Anwar advises, and its
two allies won control of five of Malaysia's 13 states in the
March 8 elections. That denied the ruling coalition, which has
ruled for five decades, its two-thirds majority in Parliament.
Anwar was jailed for six years for corruption and sodomy
until Malaysia's highest court overturned the sodomy conviction
and released him in 2004.

Sinking Stocks

His party today called for supporters to rally calmly at
the police station where the former minister was planning to
give a statement. His wife, daughter and about 10 opposition
lawmakers gathered at the building after the arrest, which took
place shortly before 1 p.m. local time.

Investors have sold Malaysian stocks since the elections,
driving down the benchmark index 23 percent this year. That's
worse than the performances of the indexes in neighboring
Thailand, Indonesia and Singapore.

The Kuala Lumpur Composite index extended declines after
the arrest to its lowest in 16 months, losing 0.6 percent.
The Malaysian ringgit was the region's worst performer today,
weakening 0.2 percent to 3.2270 against the U.S. dollar.
Some money managers called on Abdullah's National Front
coalition to explain today's developments.

Health Threat

``The government should address the nation,'' said Scott
Lim, who helps manage the equivalent of $620 million as chief
investment officer at CMS Asset Management Sdn. in Kuala Lumpur.
``Instability following the March 8 election has all been very,
very negative.''

The investigation into Anwar's aide's accusation comes
under a section of Malaysia's penal code listing the offence  

``All that the people want to know now is whether Anwar
sodomized or not,'' Mukhriz Mahathir, lawmaker for the National
Front coalition, said in Parliament, triggering shouts from
opposition members of Parliament. He called for the DNA evidence
from human tissue to be produced.

About 65 percent of Malaysians consider the allegations to
be politically motivated, while 11 percent believe Anwar is
guilty, according to a survey of 1,000 people conducted July 14
by the Merdeka Center, Ibrahim said.

Anwar, who was confined temporarily to a wheelchair by the
police beating he received in 1998, may be in danger again, said
his wife, Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.

`I Feel Apprehensive'

``I feel apprehensive because my husband is, 10 years down
the road, not that well,'' she told reporters today after
speaking to Anwar by phone following the arrest. ``He has a bad
back, he's had surgery, and from the brief conversation, he said
they were not gentle.''

Anwar has filed a defamation suit against his accuser and
claims the 23-year-old former aide conspired with the government.
The manner of the arrest, one hour before Anwar had agreed
to meet police, drew criticism from his party and others in the
opposition alliance.

``Can't they conduct their investigations in a proper
manner?'' Azmin Ali, vice president of People's Justice Party,
told reporters at Parliament. ``The police should not test the
patience of the citizens. Do they want a repeat of the `98
riots?''
Anwar should be immediately released since he was willing
to cooperate with the investigation, Lim Guan Eng, head of the
opposition Democratic Action Party, said in an e-mailed
statement.

Malaysia's top policeman, Musa Hassan, didn't reply to a
message left on his phone seeking an explanation for the arrest.

Ayah Ditahan

Posted by izzah on 15 Jul 08 -

Dad was arrested by the cops whilst on his way to the IPK to give his statement. The cops gave till 2pm for dad to report but still arrested him before the deadline. Dad was on his way back home to have lunch in Bukit Segambut, and then head to the IPK but the cops blocked off the road and arrested him like a criminal. And the cops who arrested him were Special Squad cops with balaclavas!!! Is that necessary!!!

I hope and pray for our nation today. I ask all Malaysians to be calm but strong in this event. I truly do believe our nation’s future rests on what happens in the next weeks.

Please please do not give the authorities any reason to crack down on us. Let us do everything by the book and do what’s right.

And most of all, please pray.

Petronas Profit The Overview

Aku kalau nak citer in bussiness terms nanti korang tak faham so aku cuba ringkaskan seringkas-ringkasnya.

Pendapatan 2008       RM223.1bill pertambahan sebanyak 21.2%

Keuntungan sebelum cukai   RM95.5 bill meningkat sebanyak 25.2%

Keuntungan selepas cukai   RM61.0 bill meningkat sebanyak 31.5%

Pembayaran kpd Gomen adalah RM67.6 bil semenjak penubuhan RM403.3 bill

Wokey ini yang nak tengok ni: Dari RM67.6 bill

RM62.8 bill kpd federal gomen + RM4.8 bill kpd T'ganu, S'wak, Sabah

Mari kita lihat struktur apakah dan bagaimanakah bentuk bayaran Petronas ini dibuat.

1. RM30.0 bill adalah bentuk dividen.
   
2. RM20.6 bill petroleum income tax
   
3. RM5.4    bill corporate tax
   
4. RM2.1    bill duti ekspot
   
5. RM4.7    bill royalti kerajaan pusat
   
   

Yang aku tahu: Dalam kenyataan Petronas baru-baru ini seakan-akan Petronas telah menggunakan wang hasil keuntungan 61.0 billion untuk diberikan kepada kerajaan. Padahal mengikut basic accountancy :

20.6 + 5.40 + 2.10 + 4.70 = 32.80 (billion) sepatutnya diambil dari untung sebelum cukai.

RM30.00 billion adalah pemberian dividen adalah yang sebenarnya pemberian secara terus kepada gomen.

Kekeliruan telah timbul di kalangan masyarakat apabila mereka bertanya bagaimana untung RM61 billion boleh lak bagi gomen RM67 billion?.....The math doesn't work here.

Ini adalah kerana kenyataan Petronas ini: 

The RM67.6 billion total payment to governments for the year represents
63.1% of the PETRONAS Group profits for the same period. PETRONAS Group
retained only 29.2% of its profits during the year for reinvestments and the
balance 7.7% was used to pay foreign taxes and minority interests. The
reinvestment is necessary to ensure the Group's sustainable operations and
growth in order to be able to continue to generate value for its stakeholders.

Cukup mengelirukan...siapa yang bukan dari finacial sector akan faham yang dari RM61 billion Petronas cuma simpan RM17.6 billion untuk reinvesment. seolah-olah Petronas tak simpan apa-apa...got what I mean?....

Oklah simple calculation.

63.10 + 29.20 + 7.7 0 = 100%.
Simpanan? hehehehe...ini semua accountancy punya trick...jgn risau duit tu ade sebenarnya cuma tak diterangkan secara terperinci di dalam press conference. 

Sampaikan Pak Menteri pun boleh confuse....nasihat aku kat Pak Menteri , tu ler lain kali belajor jangan main hentam keromo jer...Tak tahu tanya...

PETRONAS: subsidi kepada sektor gas
RM19.7 billion, up by 26.2% dari RM15.6 billion sebelumnya. Ini membawa kpd RM77.9 billion semenjak tahun 1997.

Subsidi gas kepada sektor tenaga adalah RM13.8 billion. Naik ke 17.9%.


ok tengok ni :

RM8.1 billion atau 58.7% pergi ke IPP!!!!!!!!
Kenaikan harga minyak telah menyebabkan penggunaan gas  kpd non-power sector 
meningkat 51.3% pertambahan dalam subsidi kepada 
non-power sector adalah RM5.9 billion.

Banyak tu yang mengalir ke IPP......Dah le IPP dapat subsidi lepas tu  dapat untung hasil jualan ke Petronas pulak tu.....


Perjanjian?..Ada satu kes yang berlaku kepada  Mechmar  corp bhd dengan  Tanzania  dan ditanda tangani pada 1994....Malas nak eloborate. Nanti dikata menabur fintnah. ada baiknya jika kamu semua buat kajian sendiri. Apa yang boleh aku katakan projek tersebut telah diambil balik oleh kerajaan Tanzania. Hehehe boleh lak gomen take over balik walaupun perjanjian telah di buat ye?....Maaf kalau aku tersilap. AL MAKLUMLAH AKU NI BUKANNYA LAW STUDENT OR LAW MAKER.

 

                                               

Debate Anwar And Shabery

By Wan Hamidi Hamid
UPDATED

KUALA LUMPUR. July 15 — It doesn't matter who the winner was in the first-ever American-style live TV debate in the country tonight — with Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek taking centrestage to argue about fuel price hikes. The real winner was the debate itself. 

Concluded quickly within an hour with a format quite similar to the American presidential candidate debates, with a rostrum each for the debater on stage, the most glaring thing for all to see was the quality of debate.

Some may say Anwar, the de facto leader of Parti Keadilan Rakyat, won the debate as he focused on the issue at hand — the fuel price hike — while Ahmad Shabery, the Information Minister, seemed to take cheap shots at Anwar especially his younger days as a rabble rouser.

Anwar proposed to reduce the current petrol pump price by 50 sen the moment his opposition coalition of PKR, PAS and DAP take over the Federal Government.

"Petronas has announced a special dividend RM6 billion to the government for this year. Why can't I take RM1 billion of that to reduce the petrol price by 50 sen?" he said to applause from a section of the 300-strong audience in the Dewan Bahasa and Pustaka Hall in Kuala Lumpur.

Elaborating further, he promised to slash pump prices further once his Pakatan Rakyat coalition took over, saying it is an initial 50 sen because the Barisan Nasional government had just hiked prices by 70 sen from RM1.92 per litre previously.

The former deputy prime minister made it clear from the start of the debate that he was not questioning national oil company Petronas but his criticisms were directed at the BN government which he alleged was rife with mismanagement and economic abuse, citing Malaysia's high electricity reserves as a waste as it only benefited the independent power producers (IPPs).


A view of the audience watching the debate between the two politicians.
He argued the government could save RM2 billion from reducing electricity reserves, adding an additional RM3 billion to finance the 50-sen reduction can be sourced elsewhere. "Five billion is enough to help lighten the burden on the rakyat. The Perwaja bailout was RM13 billion of government money."

In his reply, Ahmad Shabery argued that "if we continue at RM1.92, it means the government is forced to bear the subsidy of RM50 billion and this means many development programmes, building of schools, roads and improving people's livelihood cannot be implemented.”

"We should know that the price increase is not our doing but due to the world oil price crisis. This is not the first time we have had a world oil crisis. The first time was in 1973-74 when after the Arab-Israeli Ramadan war. Oil price increased by 400 per cent, from US$10 a barrel to US$40 in six months. 

"But it was also an important year because the late Tun Razak (the then Prime Minister) set up Petronas in a pressured situation because the world outside pressured us not to take away the rights given to Shell at that time. Shell was set up by the British before they left," he said, also to applause from his supporters.

The information minister also explained that subsidies could not be sustained for a long time because it would hamper real economic growth.

In a question-and-answer session, Ahmad Shabery was asked about the RM4.3 billion savings from an earlier fuel price increase in 2006 that was meant to be used to improve public transport but only RM834 million was used for that purpose, leading people to be cynical about the purported RM13 billion in savings in the latest subsidy cut.

The minister dismissed the question, saying that in 2006 the international fuel price was just US$70 a barrel whereas it has now reached US$140 a barrel, and went on to argue that countries such as Venezuela and Iran which heavily subsidised fuel had very high inflation rates.

Anwar however argued that Malaysia's real inflation rate of some eight per cent was caused by economic mismanagement, not by the global oil price increase. "If the Barisan Nasional says that the fuel price can be increased in a sudden and it will not be followed by increasing price of goods and services, I want to know who teaches them this kind of economic management.

"We're an oil-producing country and for every US$1 increase per barrel, we make RM360 million. Why can't we do something good with this?" Anwar thundered.

To this, Ahmad Shabery argued that Malaysia was not even in the top 20 oil-producing countries list, let alone a major player. 

"We're just a small nett exporter of oil. Our profits are only 26 per cent of our oil revenue. The rest we received from the (Petronas) investments. By 2015, when we become a nett importer of oil, will we then adhere to the global price?"

In reply, Anwar said: "Who told us that our oil will deplete in 2015? Thirty years ago Petronas projected that our oil will run out by 2005. It's just a projection. I believe we have a lot more capacity."

When Ahmad Shabery pointed out that Anwar too was responsible for problems pertaining to the IPPs which are still reaping profits despite the current economic situation as he was a Cabinet minister then, the former finance minister demanded a check of record to prove that he had opposed the IPP plans approved by former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Towards the end of the debate, Ahmad Shabery repeated his argument that Anwar was still a rabble rouser and that during Anwar's time in the government he would never allowed others, especially the opposition, to participate in an open debate such as the one held tonight.

Ahmad Shabery had earlier accused Anwar of inciting the people to rise up against the government over claims of poverty in Baling, Kedah in 1974.

Pointing out these were cheap shots, Anwar explained that he was here to debate an economic issue only but would be willing to debate on other matters, including personal allegations against him, at another forum.

Besides a minor fracas before the start of the debate outside the hall as well as a very heavy police presence around the building and the surrounding area, the event, organised by AgendaDaily.com was a largely peaceful event. It was telecast live on TV9 and Astro channels 119, 501 and 502 apart from being webcast by IP Global TV.
