Social activist and Malaysiakini columnist Hishamuddin Rais has fired back against accusations by PKR president-elect Anwar Ibrahim that he "fabricates" the stories in his writings based on rumours.
"Let me explain here. What I write is fact. I know what I write. It is not made-up. It is not (based on) rumours. It is not (based on) roadside stories. It is not (based on) anybody's whispers.
"Political chapters have become news. (These) political chapters are widely known," he said in a statement today.
Hishamuddin was responding to a Malay Mail report which quoted Anwar as saying that the activist's series of exposés in Malaysiakini are his "own personal writings."
"This Hisham guy is great at fabricating stories.
"He just writes based off of some whispers on the streets... he does not have any direct source,” he reportedly said.
naturally he defends wan azizah's treachery against guan eng by making light of rais' revelations |
In his statement, Hishamuddin said the contents of his articles were meant to reveal the facts "behind the scenes" of the new government administration that "give rise to the news."Among the matters he has written on are outgoing PKR president and Deputy Prime Minister Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail's alleged preference of Rafizi Ramli over DAP's Lim Guan Eng for the finance portfolio during early Pakatan Harapan discussions on cabinet posts.
When Mahathir proposed (before he announced) the names of the first 3 ministers, namely Moody as Home Affairs, Mat Sabu as Defence and Lim GE as Finance, Wan Azizah objected to one of those 3 names, namely the sole Chinaman.
wan azizah objected to guan eng as finance minister |
wan azizah proposed to mahathir to delay taking over the government for 2 weeks to allow time for rafizi and anwar to be pardoned, and presumably for rafizi to be FM through the senate backdoor |
In Guan Eng's place she wanted Rafizi Ramli as the Finance Minister. At that time poor Rafizi was disbarred from standing in his Pandan haunt, and it's quite surprising Wan Azizah seemed oblivious of that fact as she has been the VERY one who took Rafizi's old constituency to stand in GE14, while giving her daughter her Permatang Pauh seat.
When Mahathir asked her how was that to happen considering Rafizi was not even elected apart from being disbarred from GE14, she proposed that the Pakatan Harapan new government be formed only after two weeks to allow Anwar and Rafizi to be pardoned.
It's quite amazing that Wan Azizah was against Guan Eng when the DAP especially its sec-gen Guan Eng has supported her through thick and thin as in the PKR intra-party fiasco regarding the appointment of MB Selangor after Khalid Ibrahim was booted out.
The DAP has even assigned DAP people to look after her state constituency of Kajang where complaints galore had been raised about her absenteeism as its ADUN.
status during the 13th parliamentary term: satay - No: 1 2nd adun - No: 1,000,001 |
When Malays talked about "ingratitude", that's what it means for Wan Azizah to back-stab Guan Eng after the DAP sec-gen had stood by and walked with her through the Valley of Death (not that I like Guan Eng but I have to be truthful and fair to him, wakakaka).
And she showed her moronic sense of prioritisation by requesting Mahathir to delay talking over as the new victorious Pakatan government for two weeks in order to allow time for Anwar and Rafizi to be pardoned, presumably to allow the latter to be senator-ised and made Finance Minister.
Before you cursed me for showing you the dark side of Wan Azizah who is no Mother Teresa but an idiotic ketuanan useless minister who couldn't look after an 11-year old sweetie, all above was observed first hand and recorded by Hishamuddin Rais (whom looes74 brazenly claimed as his good matey).
Hishamuddin Rais commented on the proposed 2 weeks delay by Pakatan in becoming government:
Dan akhirnya Mahathir memberitahu kepada yang hadir bahawa dia melantik Muhyiddin Yassin sebagai menteri dalam negeri, Mat Sabu sebagai menteri pertahanan dan Lim Guan Eng sebagai menteri kewangan.
Wan Azizah bersuara menyatakan yang dia tidak bersetuju dengan pelantikan Lim Guan Eng.
I don't want that Cinapek |
“Kalau bukan Guan Eng, siapa yang patut dilantik?” Mahathir bertanya.
“Rafizi,” Wan Azizah memberi jawapan jelas.
Keadaan menjadi tegang. High noon muncul di Yayasan Albukhary. Ini kerana apa yang disuarakan oleh Wan Azizah tidak masuk akal kepada sesiapa yang waras.
“Bagaimana?” Mahathir bertanya.
Pertanyaan Mahathir ini berasaskan fakta. Rafizi tidak bertanding dalam PRU14 ini. Rafizi sedang menghadapi beberapa tuduhan. Kerusi Parlimen Pandan yang dahulunya diwakili oleh Rafizi kini diambil alih oleh Wan Azizah sendiri.
Semua mata memandang kepada Wan Azizah. Semua menunggu jawapan. Suasana tegang.
“Kita tangguhkan kerajaan Pakatan Harapan selama dua minggu. Kita ampunkan Anwar. Kita ampunkan Rafizi.”
Ini jalan pintas yang diajukan oleh Wan Azizah.
Jika gajah ada dalam bilik ketika Wan Azizah bersuara pasti gajah ini akan bertempik. Jika harimau yang mendengar kata-kata Wan Azizah pada petang itu pasti sang harimau ini akan menerkam. Tapi ini tidak berlaku di bilik mesyuarat Yayasan Albukhary.
Semua sopan membisu. Semua senyap. Semua menjadi hairan bin takjub. Semua menjadi pelik bin tak percaya. Tapi inilah yang telah berlaku pada Jumaat 11 Mei 2018 di Yayasan Albukhary.
Kata-kata pelik dari Cik Siti Susah Nak Percaya berdesing lalu. Hairan. Hairan. Pelik lagi memelikkan.
Babak Yayasan Albukhary yang saya tulis ini pasti ramai yang tidak akan percaya. Kenyataan PKR untuk menangguhkan kerajaan Pakatan Harapan selama dua minggu tidak masuk akal. Tujuan penangguhan hanya untuk tujuan pengampunan Anwar dan Rafizi pasti susah untuk dipercayai.
Tangguh dua minggu ertinya meneruskan kerajaan kerajaan Najib-Rosmah sebagai kerajaan menjaga. Pelik tetapi inilah yang disuarakan oleh Wan Azizah.

Wasn't she stupid, moronic and senseless, and I am not saying that just because of her greater sin of incompetence, inability and unwillingness to protect that 11-year old sweetie.

Maybe she is right afterall
ReplyDeleteThat cinapek sure is a dumb one afterall with his ABC SST, hutang negara etc etc
Anyone wonder why when she had the chance to be the PM, when asked by the King, why didn't she take it and play out TDM? She could be Numero Uno and today there would be nothing TDM or BERSATU can do about it since it is the King which eventually decides who is the PM, based on the party having the majority of seats even in a coalition of parties and coalition MPs. The king is not beholden to any agreement made by a coalition of parties before the GE 14 or even after GE14 in order to ensure that a PM who is nominated is one who commands the confidence of the majority of the MPs. It shows she kept to her promise to all other parties in PH that TDM will be the PM if PH wins GE14.
ReplyDeleteAs to why the she objected to LGE being made FM instead of Rafizi, isn't she playing her role as PKR President to protect her party's interest and her warlords? And perhaps it was also due to a promise also made to Rafizi before GE14?
Kaytee is suggesting it is due to racism on her part. Am surprise you did not also add more spice to it by asking why didn't she object to the post of Minister of Defence or Minister of Home Affairs and propose Rafizi instead? Or even later when the Minister of Economy was appointed?
Could it be she or AI has promised Rafizi the FM posts if PH wins the GE14 , Rafizi not contesting the Pandan constituency to give way to her under the excuse that Rafizi may be disqualified pending appeal of his conviction and Rafizi tasked to lead the party PKR and PH towards an election victory using INVOKE.
Could it be this promise was broken when TDM decides against her nominated wish list and instead made the nomination of the 3 Ministerial posts immediately according to his best judgement. And TPM and AI could not do a thing to overturn TDM's decision once it was announced even after discussions in the hospital where Ai was warded. And all these discussions were in the presence also of LKS and Mat Sabu.
And now a frustrated Rafizi having felt betrayed and disappointed must be itching to hit back at TDM for the unfulfilled promise when it has nothing to do with TDM. Suspicions also grew that those closest to TDM were also complicit in denying him the FM posts. Why was the blame of this promise be placed on TDM and his friends instead?
Rafizi is sure angry and mad at everyone except his own President of PKR and wife who made such promises to him.
And now the revelations by Hishamuddin Rais and twisted/spinned into many other stories depending on who and what any writer/blogger wishes to see/interpret it.
"Sailang" a Malay word to mean "avoid, pass to others the promises, work, responsibility etc" as the keyword in Hishamuddin Rais exposure of a series of tweets and commentaries on this matter sure means a lot to those who understand what he is really protraying.
Of course, BN dedak bloggers and writers will see a loophole to exploit anything again for their usual staple diet of Race, Religion and Royalty hogwash.
Guess to whom Hishammuddin Rais loyalty lies? In PKR and in PH?
