Muhyiddin rewrites history

By Mariam Mokhtar
Here we go again, Umno rewriting Malayan history.

The first was in late August, when the whole of the Umno machinery turned on PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu and accused him of being a communist sympathiser.

For years, Mat Sabu delivered the same speech about Merdeka day but this year, in the run-up to the 13th general election, his speech was closely scrutinised and manipulated by Umno and its mouthpiece, Utusan Malaysia.

It Should Be At Least 35 %

By : UBF MEDIA

IN ORDER FOR Sabah and Sarawak to have a share in the law-making decision of parliament, the two states must have at least 35 percent of the parliamentary seats in Malaysia, not 34 percent as demanded by UPKO.

Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, Chairman of the United Borneo Front (UBF) said this in response to the statement on the issue by Datuk Madius Tangau, the Secretary General of UPKO.

“We have made statements on this issue about six months ago as one of the key points being put forward by UBF to strengthen the Borneo Agenda,” Jeffrey said. “I am glad that the UPKO and the PBS are now joining the chorus of demands for our rights towards a more equitable share of decision making powers of the Borneo states.”

RCI: Is Umno ready to ‘harakiri’?

Setting up an RCI in Sabah is empty talk because to do
so would be to expose the 'biggest and gravest ever
case of treason in this country's 48 years'.

KOTA KINABALU: A cross-section of Sabahans are doubtful that the federal government will ever admit to putting into motion a covert operation in the 1980s to re-engineer the demographics of the state in favour of Umno.

Most observers feel the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) recommendation by the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC) on electoral reforms is all hype.

Malaysia passes street protest ban as lawyers march

Lawyers say the new laws on public assembly
are more repressive than the old ones

The Malaysian parliament has passed a ban on street protests, despite a rally against the bill by crowds of lawyers.

Opposition lawmakers boycotted the vote on the Peaceful Assembly Act, which the ruling party says eases regulations.

But critics say it replaces a rule requiring a police permit for a demonstration with one that bans street protests.

Polls panel recommends RCI for Project IC, now ball in govt's court

By Nigel Aw
The parliamentary select committee (PSC) on electoral reform in its interim report today proposed the formation of a royal commission of inquiry to investigate claims that foreigners were granted citizenship and the right to vote in Sabah.

In its report, it stated that the recommendation was made following numerous complaints on Project IC during its public hearing in Kota Kinabalu last week.

"Even though this matter is wide and outside the terms of reference of this committee, but the committee recommends the formation of a royal commission of inquiry as a long-term solution," the report reads.
