Ucapan saya akan menyentuh Kementerian Wilayah Persekutuan, Kementerian Perusahaan Perladangan dan Komoditi, Kementerian Komunikasi, Kementerian Dalam Negeri dan Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan. 1. Sebagai ahli parlimen di Kuala Lumpur, saya rasa hairan Kementerian Wilayah Persekutuan membubarkan Lembaga Eksais di DBKL yang dipertanggungjawabkan untuk mengkaji dan meluluskan permohonan lesen penjualan arak di Kuala Lumpur pada…

郭素沁:换政府不应换策略 “爱大马棕油”旨在向世界推广棕油
郭素沁:换政府不应换策略 “爱大马棕油”旨在向世界推广棕油 (吉隆坡24日讯)前任原产业部长兼行动党士布爹国会议员郭素沁指出,国盟政府应该拥有世界观,特别是我国棕油的目标是国际市场,因此应该保留具有国际性的“爱大马棕油”(Sayangi Sawitku/Love MY Palm Oil)口号。 她对于种植及原产业部长拿督莫哈末凯鲁丁认同并且承接其推广棕油的步伐与理念感到欣慰,但是对于“爱大马棕油”运动被易名为“棕油是天赐之物“(Sawit Anugerah Tuhan),则感到遗憾。 “无可否认,棕油是上天赐给地球的恩物,不过“爱大马棕油”(Sayangi Sawitku/Love MY Palm Oil)的口号,目的并不只是局限在向大马人推广棕油,而是具有‘立足大马,面向世界’的宏观。” 她指出,特别是英文口号中的MY字,不只是代表“我”的意思,而且更是代表了马来西亚,具有一石二鸟之效。 “棕油及相关产品是我国第三大出口产品,而我国近年面对的挑战,是国际社会对棕油进行的负面宣传令到棕油市场被打击;因此我们在有限宣传预算的情况下,以Love MY Palm Oil向全世界推广我国的棕油。” 她甚至已与大马棕油理事会(MPOC)计划,于今年2月配合2020年旅游大马年进行一系列的宣传活动,以便向来马旅游的外国游客推介棕油。 “我想请问莫哈末凯鲁丁(部长),政府如今是要向国际推介棕油,还是目标只是国内?如是前者,便应该保留原有口号,而不是就因为换了政府,就连宣传棕油的策略也变了。”
Is tightening media freedom and freedom of expression becoming the direction and policy of Perikatan Nasional?
The media freedom and rights of the rakyat to exercise their freedom of expression that came alive during the 22-month reign of Pakatan Harapan (PH) is unfortunately going down the drain now. Recent drastic actions against by the relevant authorities on the media seem to have taken several strides backwards. The recent series of…

Cadangan Untuk Membina Pusat Teknologi Getah Wilayah Timur RM100 Juta di Jerantut Adalah Pembaziran Wang Oleh Ahli Politik Yang Dilantik Oleh Perikatan Nasional
1. Langkah Perdana Menteri YAB Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin “membeli” kesetiaan para Ahli Parlimen PN dengan menawarkan jawatan tertinggi di Badan Berkanun dan Syarikat Berkaitan Kerajaan (GLC) di samping membentuk kabinet pentadbiran yang mengandungi 70 orang Menteri dan Timbalan Menteri telah dengan sendirinya menarik perhatian ramai rakyat Malaysia. Oleh itu, saya tidak akan mengulas lebih…
Rubber Board RM100 million splurge on new tech centre signals : Return to dark days of GLCs run by political appointees
1. Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has rightly drawn much flak from Malaysians over his move to ‘buy’ the loyalty of MPs by rewarding them with top positions in GLCs, with their numbers now at record levels, along with his bloated Cabinet of 70 ministers and deputy ministers. As such, I will not comment…
WHO is urged to retract its discriminatory and misleading information on palm oil in its Covid-19 pandemic dietary advisory, in order to protect the image and authority of WHO in the world community
The recent dietary advisory published by the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office (WHO EMRO) advising people not to consume palm oil during the Covid-19 pandemic stating it contains saturated fats. This is a terribly misleading advisory which will jeopardise WHO’s authoritative standing on health and nutrition in the global community. As billions of the world’s…
