Backbenchers slaughter cows, chicken

Posted on Tuesday, 10-07-2007Tuesday, 10-07-2007 by Teresa

Today is the last day Parliment is sitting for the June-July session.

There are many interesting things planned for today, including dinner organised by BN Backbenchers for Pak Lah and his newly wed wife.

The preparation for the dinner upset alot of people because it involved the live slaughter of two cows and ten goats.

I made three speeches today, two of them are off the cuff and third one was quite formal.

I am exhausted to blog but have to as that’s another way for me to keep in touch with party members

Got to go to see the new wife of our beloved Prime Minister now…not to mention th food… 🙂

Ancaman Cyanide Yang Digunakan Dalam Proses Pemisahan Emas di Bukit Koman di Negeri Pahang

Seramai 3, 000 penduduk di Bukit Koman di Kawasan Raub, Negeri Pahang merasa amat risau terhadap perlombongan dan proses pemisahan emas yang dijalankan oleh Raub Australian Gold Mining Sendiran Berhad yang menggunakan cyanide. Tapak perlombongan tersebut adalah lebih kurang 300 meter dari kawasan kediaman mereka di Bukit Koman.

Cyanide merupakan sejenis bahan kimia yang bahaya kepada kesihatan manusia dan ia akan mengakibatkan keguguran bayi dalam kandungan. Orang yang didedahkan kepada bahan kimia ini akan menghadapi penyakit sakit kepala, nausea, kesusahan untuk bernafas, kekeliruan, seizures, koma and penyakit jantung.

Beberapa kajian terhadap cyanide membuktikan bahawa penggunaan cyanide secara meluas telah menjejaskan kesihatan ramai orang di Kanada, Romania, Guyana, Kyrgyzstan dan Papua New Guinea.

Sehubungan dengan itu, kerajaan Negeri Pahang telah mengumumkan cadangan projek Empangan Klau yang bernilai RM3 billion di bawah Projek Pemindahan Air di Antara Negeri Pahang-Selangor (ISRWT) di Raub. Ramai penduduk di kawasan Raub dan juga pertubuhan alam sekitar merasa bimbang bahawa cyanide yang digunakan oleh syarikat perlombongan tersebut akan meresap ke dalam aliran air bawah tanah, dan menjejaskan kebersihan dan ketulinan bekalan air di empangan tersebut.

Saya difahamkan bahawa para penduduk di Bukit Koman telah berjumpa dengan Ahli Parlimen Raub dan ADUN Teras berkenaan dengan kebimbangan mereka terhadap penggunaan cyanide oleh Raub Australian Gold Mining. Apakah masalah dan kebimbangan penduduk-penduduk ini telah disampaikan kepada pihak Kementerian Sumber Asli dan Alam Sekitar?

Persoalan saya adalah, apakah syarikat Raub Australian Mining Sdn Bhd telah mendapat kebenaran daripada Jabatan Alam Sekitar untuk menggunakan cyanide dalam aktiviti perlombongan dan proses pemisahan emasnya?

Memandangkan kawasan Raub mempunyai 80,000 orang penduduk dan aktiviti penggunaan cyanide dalam proses pemisahan emas ini akan menjejaskan nyawa dan kesihatan beribu-ribu orang di Raub, dan berkemungkinan akan mencemarkan aliran air bawah tanah yang mengalir ke Empangan Klau, apakah langkah yang diambil oleh Jabatan Alam Sekitar dan Jabatan Kesihatan untuk mempertahankan nyawa dan kesihatan berjuta-juta penduduk di Pahang dan Selangor yang menggunakan air tersebut?

    I read about the cow and thing today inthe sun and I thought

    1) parliment is a honourable place and the act is disrespectful

    2) there are laws governing the slaughter of animals for hygene, safety reasons; not to mention good taste – you don’t see us killing pigs all around the place

    3) does the people think they own the compound? turning into some kampung gotong royong place…parliment is an honourable place. what next? in front of the high court?

    4) what does our PM has to say about this?

    5) how does the other Malaysians with different religion feel?

    6) the speaker of the dewan is losing it….the way he fielded the questions…..

    Rest is to travel a long journey. Just likes prepared the traditional herbal medicine, first boil it with big fire, then use small fire to extract the essence. Look at the BN government, there are either use no fire at all, or just simply use big fire which only can last for a short period. Suddenly, we have special economic zones all over the places, do we have the money, resource and talent to do so much? It is time someone other than Dato Abdullah to guide the country. Let’s give Dato Najib a chance, if he can’t do much better, maybe someone other than UMNO camp can do a better job. For all politician, his / her ambition should be trying to be the PM. Maybe the honorable Teresa can move up a notch and prepare much better policy for DAP to lead the country, especially in the area of economics, education and safety.
