我和家人理解苏丹殿下与苏丹后痛失爱子的沉痛心情，因此，在柔佛州哀悼期间，我们的心与大家同在。愿逝者安息，生者节哀。

新闻稿 ： 慈善家认为国阵需要华人支持保政权
新闻稿(22-10-15)
社会爱心基金会主席丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅
慈善家认为国阵需要华人支持保政权
素来实话直说的慈善家彭茂燊指出，国阵需要华人的支持才能保住政权。首相纳吉和国阵政府必须尽更大努力赢取信赖。
他提出警惕说，如果纳吉和他的团队无法做到这一点，在第14届大选来临之际，换政府可以成为事实。
社会爱心基金会创办人兼主席在一封致给主管国民团结的首相署部长佐瑟古律的信中如此说道。他今日将此信贴在其面子书账户上。
“首相拿督斯里纳吉拉萨曾多次提及，他的政府及他本身需要华社的支持。何出此言，全国皆知，惟巫统内部分歧，华社的支持是何等重要及必然的。首相也应知道，他是全民的首相，而他似乎不曾阻止或企图阻止不健康和危险的口号，、马来人的街头集会，以及喊出敏感口号。我们也了解，首相也需要马来人的支持。”
彭茂燊补充说，马来西亚华社已经意识到，他们必须团结，才能有效地表达他们的心声，这也是华社唯一能做的行动。
他也认为，国阵政府要争取占总人口23.7%的华人支持，将是一项艰巨的任务，原因如下：
1. 前副首相丹斯里慕尤丁雅欣曾矢言，对巫统而言，是以1个马来人为先，1个马来西亚为次；
2. 马来人大集会的主办单位和参与者做出了种种的损害，诸如向华人喊出激进种族性污蔑口号，类似“华人猪”、“外来者”及“回中国”等；
3. 在刘蝶广场和茨厂街所发生的丑陋种族事件已经令华人精神受到创伤。
彭茂燊声称，这种种事件已经让国际社会觉得，当前的政府无法公平的对待马来西亚各族。
针对首相呼吁华社支持国阵政府，彭茂燊说，只是发发声明已经行不通。
“在来临的第14届大选，把票投给马华，已经不在95%华人的考虑之内。不应再召集马来人大集会，它不但带来负面影响，也制造严重种族问题。如果再不采取行动，将把马来西亚也毁了。这不是凭空想象，而是确确实实存在的。”
此外，彭茂燊也促请古律鉴定德高望重、备受华社敬重的华人领袖，向基层沟通，请求他们为团结共同努力，同时妥善照顾华人社会的福利和教育等课题。
“如今已经到了一个令华社必须说‘够了’的程度。这是华社的心声，也是当前政府，包括您部门的义务推行有关行动。如果尚无法做到这一点，我胆敢说一句，来届大选将会出现政权更迭。这是我的个人意见，只要尽快采取果敢及有效的改变，大团结就可实现。”

BN needs Chinese support to stay in power, says philanthropist
To stay in power, Barisan Nasional (BN) needs to garner genuine support from the Chinese community.
Outspoken social activist-cum-philanthropist Tan Sri Robert Phang stressed that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak and his BN government must work hard to earn the trust.
He warned that a change of government is possible in the coming 14th general election if Najib and his team failed to do so.
The founder and chairman of the Social Care Foundation warned of this in his letter to Tan Sri Joseph Kurup, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in charge of national unity, recently. He also posted his statement on his Facebook account today.
“Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had said many times that his government and himself need the support of the Chinese community.
“Our nation understands where he is coming from. Granted there is a split within Umno, the support from the Chinese community will be important and inevitable.
“Datuk Seri Najib must know that he is the PM for all races. He has never been seen to stop or contemplate to stop the unhealthy and dangerous slogans, plus street rallies by the pro-Malay group, shouting in the streets sensitive slogans.
“We can understand that PM needs the support from the Malay supporters, too.”
Phang added that the Chinese community in Malaysia had now awakened and they realised that they needed to unite to be a strength and a voice to be heard.
“This is the only strength of the Chinese community.”
He also opined that it would be an uphill task for the BN government to garner the genuine support of the Chinese community, which made up 23.7% of the total population, because of the following reasons:
1. The proclamation by the ex-Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyddin Yassin that as far as Umno was concerned, it was 1Melayu first and 1Malaysia second;
2. The bad and damaging experience in the past few pro-Malay rallies where such racist and inflammatory remarks like “Cina Babi” (Chinese pigs), “Pendatang” (Foreigner) and “Balik Negeri Cina” (Return to China) were hurled at the Chinese community by the organisers and participants;
3. The ugly racial incidents at the Low Yat Plaza and Petaling Street had traumatised the Chinese community.
These had also given the international community a negative impression that the present government is incapable of being fair to all Malaysians, Phang claimed.
On the Prime Minister’s call, urging the Chinese community to support the BN government, Phang said this would not work.
“95% of the Chinese community of today do not want to consider voting for MCA for the forthcoming GE14.”
To address this problem, he urged the Prime Minister to ensure equality for the Chinese community and be seen to speak out loud and stop the sensitive issues and slogans at all cost.
“There should be no more rallies from the Malays as it will have a negative impact and definitely invite serious racial problems. If no action is taken, it will destroy Malaysia. That is highly possible and not a dream.”
Besides this, Phang also urged Kurup to identify some independent respectful Chinese leaders, who were accepted by the Chinese community, to go down to the ground to communicate and invite them to participate in solidarity issues — to draw up a plan for the Chinese where their welfare, education and well-being will be looked into.
“It has reached a stage where the Chinese community has said enough is enough.
“If this is the voice of solidarity from the Chinese community, needless to say, it is the duty of the government of the day, including your ministry, to promote and implement.
“If this is not done, I can boldly say that the next GE will see a change in government.
“That is my personal feedback and view. Solidarity can only be achieved provided bold and effective changes take place as soon as possible.”

Malaysia’s ‘most powerful’ person under probe, says MACC
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is in the midst of investigating the most powerful person in the country, says outgoing deputy chief commissioner Datuk Seri Zakaria Jaffar.
He said this person was investigated in relation to Finance Ministry-owned firm SRC International Sdn Bhd, and a sum of money worth RM2.6 billion.
"We are faced with an investigation that involves the most powerful person in the country," he said today in his retirement speech at the MACC Academy in Kuala Lumpur today.
"Everyone is in the know that we are carrying out the biggest investigation since 1967. The officers involved need the full support to work in this very difficult field," said Zakaria, who retires today as deputy chief commissioner (management and professionalism).
SRC International was former a subsidiary of state investment firm 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) and was later placed under the finance ministry.
It drew controversy for taking a RM4 billion loan from government pension fund, Retirement Fund Incorporated.
The RM2.6 billion fund was reported by The Wall Street Journal to have been transferred to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's personal accounts. MACC has already confirmed the funds as a political donation from an unknown Middle Eastern donor.
It is not known what the money has been used for, although Najib said he was holding the funds in trust on behalf of Umno.
In his farewell speech, Zakaria also touched on “attacks” against the agency’s officers over suspicions that MACC had been responsible for leaking information on the probe into 1MDB.
This was after The Wall Street Journal, citing information from government investigators, reported in July that RM2.6 billion had been transferred into Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s personal bank accounts.
The special operations unit of the MACC was raided and several of its investigators detained for questioning. Two MACC officers were also transferred but reinstated after an outcry.
“Such a thing should never have had happened.”
He urged the agency’s investigators involved in the probe into SRC International and into the RM2.6 billion not to waver.
He said this person was investigated in relation to Finance Ministry-owned firm SRC International Sdn Bhd, and a sum of money worth RM2.6 billion.
"We are faced with an investigation that involves the most powerful person in the country," he said today in his retirement speech at the MACC Academy in Kuala Lumpur today.
"For as long as I have served in ACA and MACC, it never crossed my mind that the commission would face a challenge this big as what we are seeing today.
"Everyone is in the know that we are carrying out the biggest investigation since 1967. The officers involved need the full support to work in this very difficult field," said Zakaria, who retires today as deputy chief commissioner (management and professionalism).

He urged the agency’s investigators involved in the probe into SRC International and into the RM2.6 billion not to waver.
“I am confident that the officers involved in these cases will continue to work without fear. Investigations will continue even if suspects have absconded.” – October 12, 2015.

I'll see you in court, Ling tells Najib
Former MCA president Dr Ling Liong Sik will not apologise for calling on Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to resign.
"I say to the prime minister, if you choose to sue me, I will defend myself. In all humility, I accept your challenge.
"I look forward to seeing the prime minister take the witness stand, as no doubt he would do if he says his reputation is at stake.
"I want to reiterate that I stand by what I said. I would not apologise," he said in a statement today.
The former MCA president also said he was "extremely surprised" by the legal letter, and the subsequent media coverage of it.
Najib on Monday threatened to sue Ling if he did not retract his statement and apologise within seven days.
During an event over the weekend, Ling said he agreed with Mahathir's call for Najib to step down because "he has taken people's money and put it in his own personal accounts".
Ling also made a brief appearance at a Bersih 4 gathering in Perth, which among others called for the prime minister’s resignation.
Yesterday, another former MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek told Malaysiakini that Ling had an axe to grind with Najib after he was charged in connection with the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) case.
Chua also said that being a long-time associate of Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Ling is more indebted to the former premier than Najib.
Mahathir has repeatedly demanded Najib's resignation.
Najib is embroiled in controversy over the deposit of RM2.6 billion into his personal bank accounts.
The prime minister has denied taking public funds for "personal gain" while his supporters claim the massive deposits were "political donations" from the Middle East.
Malaysiakini has contacted Najib's lawyer Mohd Hafarizam Harun and is waiting for his reply.

掌掴华人？巫统国阵完全放弃华人票？是这么一回事吗？
新闻稿 ( 2015年10月7日)
社会爱心基金会主席丹斯里彭茂燊太平局绅：
掌掴华人？巫统国阵完全放弃华人票？是这么一回事吗？
农业部副部长拿督达祖丁坚持不针对‘掌掴华人’的言论道歉，只不过是想在族人面前做一些‘勇者’的表现，但却充分体现他那种‘无赖勇者’的气势。除非巫统国阵真的不再需要任何一张华人票，否则达祖丁应该虚心道歉。无论是有心、无意、口误或是开玩笑，对我而言，把不应该说的话都说出口，错就是错，他就应该勇于道歉，这才是真正勇者的表现。
达祖丁的‘掌掴华人’论调已经商害了华人尊严。虽然华人人口持续萎缩，华人人口与马来西亚总人口比例已经下跌至25%，有但还是一股相当大的力量，而我也深信，巫统国阵在来届大选中还是需要华人的支持，除非巫统国阵完全放去华人选票，那就另当别论了。我也一直认为，深得人心才是一位政治领袖该做的事。
做为一位政治人物最重的是，一定要具备政治智慧。我想，一味耍无赖的达祖丁应该重新磨练他的政治智慧，避免他的言行举止再度伤害我国各种之间的情感，也避免引起不必要的误会，而把我国推向灾难性的局面。
一个道歉可以显示他的风度、气度，还可挽回一个局面，这才是达祖丁应该慎重考虑的。为了不要再挑起让人不舒服的课题。他还要学习避免重蹈‘口比脑快’的覆辙。想当年，我和达祖丁还在Cycle & Carriage共事时，曾经提醒他，投身政治就要当个好领导，做个有责任感的政治人物。
身为马来西亚的一位乐龄公民，我经历过第二次战争、513暴乱等事件，因此我特别珍惜目前所拥有的和平与和谐气氛。凡是做出破坏这种得来不易的氛围，我都会加以大力谴责。
此外，我对于马华公会这次‘极度愤怒’的表现感到欣慰，因此，我呼吁所有华人都应站出来支持该党讨公道的行动，并希望该党继续敢怒敢言。
我也促请所有华人务必凝聚在一起，并肩对抗不合理的欺压、挑衅行动等，共同维持国家的安定。而马华也应该如该党署理会长拿督魏家祥所说的一样：追究到底！若马华做到这一点，必定能绝地反弹。
Rulers want 1MDB probe wrapped up, wrongdoers punished
The Conference of Rulers has decreed that the investigation into 1MDB be completed as soon as possible and the wrongdoers, if any, be punished.
"The findings of this investigation must be reported in full and transparently, so the people can be convinced of the government's sincerity that it will never hide the facts and the truth.
"Failure to give an explanation and satisfactory answers may cause a confidence crisis," reads the statement from the rulers, issued today by the Keeper of the Rulers' Seal, Syed Danial Syed Ahmad.
"As a result, the rakyat believe, either as reality or perception, that it is one of the main reasons that influenced the ringgit's sharp downfall, which has given a negative impact on the country's financial market and economic climate while affecting the world's view of Malaysia," they added.
In the joint statement as reported by Bernama, the Malay Rulers also asked all responsible parties to give their full cooperation so that the purpose of the investigation is fulfilled.
They said if the 1MDB issue is not dealt with intelligently and continues to drag on, it will damage the economy and the people's welfare.
They fear it may even cause public unrest.
US financial daily The Wall Street Journal has reported that 1MDB funds had made their way into Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's personal bank accounts.
Najib, however, denied any wrongdoing or that he had used 1MDB funds for personal gain.

新闻稿 (03-10-2015) 促请正副部长们学习‘脑比口快’谨慎发言
新闻稿 (03-10-2015)
社会爱心基金会主席丹斯里彭茂燊太平局绅
促请正副部长们学习‘脑比口快’谨慎发言
正副部长们为身为政府的一员，他们的身份应该是政府和国家的代表，所以一言一举都是举足轻重的，因此，他们不应像下三滥一样口无遮拦，而是必需守好他们的那张口，避免‘口比脑快’，因为恶言恶语不仅伤害别人，会破坏种族之间的和谐，也将影响政府和国家的形象。
所谓一言既出驷马难追，话伤人于无形，讲出去的话，即使收回也会留下伤痕，让大家心理产生疙瘩，那么，如何让他人甚至外资对我国没有疑惑呢？
作为正副部长的他们，如果无法学习‘脑比口快’，不断出言不逊，一贯态度傲慢，这只会不断地冲击我国各族之间的关系，在外国媒体眼里也不会留下好印象，这无助我国吸引和留住外资的努力，最终受伤害的并不只限于某些种族，而是全体马来西亚人！
最新的例子，就是农业及农基工业部副部长拿督达祖丁的‘掌掴论’。不仅让人震撼，看在外国媒体的眼里，我们就好像是流氓、山寨王在治国一样，因此，此风不可长啊！尽管拿督达祖丁较后澄清这是种玩笑，也一样令人遗憾，所谓‘君无戏言’，虽然他不是‘君’，但‘臣’也不应胡乱开玩笑啊！
从报章上知悉，拿督达祖丁的这番言论遭到朝野政党和非政府组织的声讨，甚至首相署部长兼马华署理总会长拿督魏家祥发出豪言，马华将会追究到底。在这里，我相信所有的马来西亚公民，包括我和所有华人，都支持拿督魏家祥和马华公会追究到底！
根据报道，魏家祥部长说，若拿督达祖丁的掌掴华人言论遭媒体曲解，拿督达祖丁就应采取法律行动，否则马华将会追究到底。我激赏这种追究到底的精神，所以决定给予支持，因为，我相信魏部长明白什么是‘君无戏言’的含义。

Najib gets bad press abroad ahead of UN address
Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak is attracting negative headlines in leading publications abroad ahead of his address at the United Nations general debate in New York on Oct 1.
Asia correspondents in top Canadian and Australian newspapers are zeroing in on Najib’s “alleged scandals”, with Canada’s The Globe and Mail describing the PM as having “flailed desperately".
The Sydney Morning Herald headline ominously reads: "Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak's inevitable fall".
In a scathing semi-analysis yesterday, The Globe and Mail’s Asia Pacific correspondent Iain Marlow accused Najib of being “unfit to lead a democracy” and ruling as a “pseudo-authoritarian”.
“Despite other actions that make him (Najib) unfit to lead a democracy, such as repeatedly jailing his main political opponent, a former deputy prime minister, on trumped up sodomy charges, he now finds himself at the centre of an ever-expanding series of corruption probes that have brought Malaysian politics to a standstill - and also threaten to bring his pseudo-authoritarian rule to an end,” Marlow wrote.
Najib’s leadership is “untenable”, even if investigations into 1MDB locally and abroad find anything untoward, he wrote.
Similarly, Sydney Morning Herald’s Southeast Asia correspondent Lindsay Murdoch wrote that Australia is “set to lose its heavy bet” on Najib, having earlier been swayed by his moderate, reformist international persona.
Like Marlow, Murdoch described Malaysian politics as having descended into “dysfunction” with Najib in Seri Perdana.
Najib has "used blunt force" to stymie investigations into the RM2.6 billion found in his bank account, while "refusing to explain what happened to the money", he wrote.
“Najib's fall – whenever it eventually comes – will impact Australia's foreign policy priorities at a time Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is pledging to take advantage of the Asian Century through innovation, science and technology,” Murdoch wrote.
Last week, leading United States newspaper The Washington Post in an editorial urged US President Barack Obama to reconsider his friendly relations with Najib.
The editorial, which came days after the Himpunan Rakyat Bersatu rally, said Najib is “pandering to racists and Muslim extremists”.

Wisma Putra cancels call for meeting with Chinese envoy
Wisma Putra has cancelled its call for a meeting with ambassador of China, Huang Huikang, reportedly after it was vetoed by acting Foreign Minister Hamzah Zainuddin.
Chinese dailies reported that the call, issued by Deputy Foreign Minister Reezal Naina Merican, was overturned by Hamzah.
Hamzah was Deputy Foreign Minister until July's cabinet reshuffle, in which he was appointed domestic trade, cooperatives and consumerism minister.
Huang was caught in the diplomatic flap after he said that while China does not intervene in domestic affairs, it will not sit idly if it affects its local interests.
The envoy said this during a visit to Petaling Street in Kuala Lumpur, one the eve of a later aborted rally planned by a Malay group.
The remark was seen as foreign intervention, but Huang explained it was only a goodwill visit.
Sin Chew Daily reported Huang that did not receive an official summon from Wisma Putra, although the Foreign Ministry issued a press statement yesterday to confirm it is calling the envoy for an explanation.
China Press also quoted sources as saying that Huang would not be heading to Wisma Putra in Putrajaya today.
Huang is scheduled to attend a forum in Kuala Lumpur this morning.
Malaysiakini has contacted Reezal and Hamzah for their response.
China Press reported that Nazri had slammed Reezal for taking action on his own, describing it as "stupid".
The report said Nazri contacted a few ministers on the matter including Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein, and that he would be flying to Italy to meet Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak today.
Nazri met Huang yesterday through a meeting arranged by some Chinese businessmen, and discussed the matter for more than an hour, it was reported.
Several foreign ministry officials also attended the meeting.

新闻稿（25-09-2015）促请红衫军头目嘉马停止无理取闹 并吁请全国总警长即刻依法行动
新闻稿—— 请即刻发布（25-09-2015）
社会爱心基金会主席丹斯里彭茂燊太平局绅
促请红衫军头目嘉马停止无理取闹
并吁请全国总警长即刻依法行动
我在此表明支持吉隆坡小贩商业公会主席拿督洪细弟捍卫茨厂街的行动，并促请‘红衫军头目’兼巫统大港区部主席拿督嘉马停止幼稚的无理取闹。
嘉马拿马来人尊严作为本钱，自己却表现得幼稚、无理取闹、蛮横、粗俗无礼，如此的行为的不仅伤害各族之间的感情，同时也将让国际看笑话，最终受伤将是所有马来西亚人的尊严。
我也再次吁请全国总警长丹斯里卡立真正的贯彻他的‘色盲’(Color
Blind) 原则，不分肤色、种族，对抵触法律者采取行动，将他们绳之以法，以免我国陷入一个无法挽回的分裂处境。
嘉马所领军的红衫军原本是竖起‘马来人尊严’的旗帜，如今已完全变质。他的行为更会成为国际媒体的笑柄，让国际社会对马来西亚留下不良印象，最终，反而会伤害马来人的尊严。而我们身为这个国家的公民，也必须肩负这个笑话的后遗症，包括外资对我国的印象，会导致他们却步，以至我国主权信贷评级下降，结果，我们大家都是受伤害。一旦国家经济受冲击，受伤害的并不仅是华人、印度人而已，马来人和其他土著也将深受其害。再说，许多马来领袖，包括东姑拉沙里都已表明，马来人的尊严并没有受挑战或受伤害，因此，嘉马应该马上收手！
我们都可以看到，凡是有智慧和正义之心的马来人都了解，嘉马要再闹茨厂街、强硬要求50%摊位，绝对是无理取闹，他们都无法苟同嘉马这种行为，所谓‘别人尚羞，他自己却不耻。’
再说。在整个事件上，真正‘制造威胁’的人物并不是别人，他正是嘉马。嘉马口出狂言、激烈言论就是一种威胁，这种行为已经威胁了这个国家的和谐。
