Shot at 2007-06-26 士布爹行动党联委会于2007年6月26日（星期二）在吉隆坡发表的文告 士布爹行动党欢迎陈志聪退党 士布爹行动党对郭素沁国会议员前义务助理陈志聪宣布退出行动党表示欢迎。 士布爹行动党副主席李奕俊今日发表文告说，在陈志聪在离开士布爹马华而参加士布爹行动党后，除了在初期比较积极之外，接下来他便一直在党内和党外制造问题，这包括在党员之间挑拨离间，在处理党内和党外社团事务上钱财不清，给士布爹行动党和郭素沁国会议员带来诸多困扰。 李奕俊对陈志聪公开支持因钱财问题而被行动党纪律委员会开除党籍的邝志胜感到惊讶。因为在陈志聪加入士布爹行动党后，他便一直向郭素沁国会议员施压，要郭素沁辞退邝志胜，但是现在却公然力挺邝志胜，反映出他前后不一和没有原则的立场。 他说，当陈志聪身还未离开士布爹马华时，便到处公开抨击士布爹马华的领导人，当他加入士布爹行动党后，却又在公开的场合多番抨击行动党，同时特别针对当年提拔他成为义务助理和直辖区行动党州委，并且多番袒护陈志聪的郭素沁国会议员。 陈志聪此次退党，除了显示出他难以答复行动党纪律委员会对他的行为的质问之外，更显示出他是个言行不一和忘恩负义的人。他离开行动党，肯定有助于促进士布爹行动党的团结，同时也是士布爹行动党值得欢庆的事。 李奕俊
RM30k gift a lie
None of the DAP MPs that I know of have received the RM30,000 to fund activities to celebrate the nation’s 50 years of independence in their constituencies. The Star on Friday reported Culture, Arts and Heritage Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim saying the money was to be used for gotong-royong, processions, performances and campaigns…
Asean must get tougher on Burma
by Gerald Giam The extension of the imprisonment of Burma’s pro-democracy leader, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, on May 27, 2007 was a widely expected move by the country’s military government, which has already kept her under detention for most of the 17 years since her party won the national elections by a landslide in…
A woman and a legislator
She was then invited to join the DAP. As if such a courtship was inadequate, she declined the offer, but did not mind helping out DAP in their election campaigns. In the elections that year, she joined Dr Kua Kia Soong’s campaign team. Kua was the DAP candidate for Petaling Jaya.
又下雨了!
雪隆区每逢下雨, 我都会接到报馆的电话, 问我的选区哪一些地方淹水。我和我的助理，经常都成为豪雨后的水灾汇报者。 去年，我选区里沙叻秀一带淹水。当媒体前往当地采访新闻时，一位受水灾影响的居民把矛头指向人民代议士，说他们的地区被水淹是因为人民代议士不理会他们造成的。水灾总要有人负责，结果又是人民代议士的错。 幸好许多被水淹的地方是在国阵的选区内，否则有些选民可能又把矛头指向在野党，说政府拒绝解决在野党选区内的问题，而造成他们面对水灾的问题。 政府在2003 年中的吉隆坡大水患后，宣布建设耗资6 亿4 千万元、贯穿吉隆坡多个地方，既可通水，又能通车的精明渠道，以解决吉隆坡水患的问题。当时，政府甚至批准承包商在该工程的环境评估报告还未出炉时，便开始施工，以期能根治吉隆坡区的水患问题。 3 年后，精明渠道终于在今年5 月开始通车了。没想到通车不久，吉隆坡又在6 月10 日发生大水灾，这次的水灾一如3 年前那样，把独立广场底下的停车场也淹没了，所幸当天是星期日，只有一个倒霉的车主把车子停放在那儿，而遭淹没，否则会有更多的车主受害。

Build childcare centres, then no ‘maid’ problems
