18 ditangkap 3 dipukul, peguam disepak curi di himpunan solidariti Adam Adli (gambar)

Aku dok agak polis bertindak lagi 'ganas' dari tu, mungkin kut polis pun tak berapa nak berani pasai semua mata tertumpu ke sana sedang menilai tindakan polis tambah-tambah lagi ramai kaum cina dalam himpunan tu.

Malaysiakini melaporkan:

Polis menahan 18 orang daripada mereka yang telah berkumpul di hadapan balai polis Jinjang malam ini untuk menyatakan sokongan terhadap aktivis pelajar Adam Adli.

Kira-kira 1,000 sebelum ini telah berkumpul di luar balai polis tersebut pada kira-kira jam 8.30 malam, di tengah-tengah kehadiran ramai anggota polis yang menutup pintu masuk ke balai. - Mkini.

Malaysiakini juga melaporkan:

Beliau juga mendakwa tiga daripada mereka yang ditahan itu, telah dipukul oleh polis sebelum mereka ditangkap. - Ibid.

Aku dok agak dah memang polis tak boleh tahan punya dengan suasana di depan balai polis Jenjang tu. Mungkin kut sebelum ni pihak polis biarkan dengan harapan sokongan kepada Adam Adli akan beransur surut. Malang bagi pihak polis sokongan bertambah dan semakin ramai yang berhimpun di depan balai tu.

Dan semalam mungkin dah tak tahan kut dan rasa kuasa depa semakin dicabar, polis akhirnya ambil tindakan, tahan 18 orang termasuk 4 wanita dan 3 dari depa tu dipukul sebelum ditahan.

Apa pun semua yang ditahan tu akhirnya dibebaskan selepas diambil keterangan.

Yang lebih gilanya, ada pulak yang beraksi celaka bagi penyepak curi dari belakang kat peguam Fadiah Nadwa Fikri dari Lawyers for Liberty yang dilantik oleh depa yang ditahan tu untuk bela depa. Lepas bagi penyepak terus lari menyorok. Apa punya polis la buat kerja celaka macam tu.

Kat bawah ni laporan polis yang Fadiah Nadwa buat atas kejadian tu.



Aku dok agak polis bertindak lagi 'ganas' dari tu, mungkin kut polis pun tak berapa nak berani pasai semua mata tertumpu ke sana sedang menilai tindakan polis tambah-tambah lagi ramai kaum cina dalam himpunan tu  pasai tu depa cuma bertindak 'ringan.'

Apa pun aku dari awal tak yakin polis sanggup nak simpan lama Adam Adli tambah-tambah kalau macam tu punya ramai yang sanggup berhimpun setiap malam kat depan balai tempat Adam Adli ditahan tu.

GST and inflation

In Malaysia’s case however, GST will be replacing a pre-existing tax and at a rate that is lower than the prevailing rate. Under those circumstances, the impact should be a one-time decrease in the price level, not an increase.

My rant for the day.
Here are the facts:

1. Malaysia is one of the last countries in the world to implement a full fledged value-added tax. The only countries of note that have yet to implement a VAT are the United States, Hong Kong, Brunei, and the countries under the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). Everybody else either has it, or are implementing it.
2. Malaysia currently levies two forms of consumption tax – sales tax and service tax (henceforth SST).
3. Sales tax is levied on all goods sold or produced in Malaysia, with the exception of petroleum and exports.The current standard rate is 10%, but a lower rate of 5% is applicable to fruits, certain foodstuffs, timber, building materials, cigarettes and tobacco, and liquor and alcohol.
4. Service tax is applicable to restaurants, hotels, parking lots, golf courses, clubs, discoes, insurance agents, phone companies, professional services like accountants, lawyers and consultants, and many more at a rate of 6%. Some of these services require a minimum corporate income threshold before the tax is levied. Credit cards are also subject to a service tax, but in this case it’s a flat fee levied on principal and supplementary cards.
5. GST is going to replace both these two taxes (with the possible exception of credit cards), and from which certain essential goods will continue to be excluded i.e. zero-rated (exports, petrol and basic foods for instance).

So, let’s assume that a 7% rate will be implemented:

1. For food, the tax on basic staples will go from 5% to 0%.
2. For other foods, the tax rate will go from 10% to 7%.
3. For the “sin” goods, the tax rate will increase marginally from 5% to 7%.
4. For everything else, the tax rate falls from 10% to 7%.
5. Certain other goods, like books and petrol, will continue to attract no tax.
6. For services, the rate will increase from 6% to 7%.

When the basic tax rates on most goods at point of sale are set to fall, how on earth can this be inflationary?
Both in theory and in practice, the implementation of a VAT or an increase in the VAT rate is almost always accompanied by a one time increase in the price level (cost of living), but not the rate of price increases (inflation). There are umpteenth examples of this over the last couple of decades.
In Malaysia’s case however, GST will be replacing a pre-existing tax and at a rate that is lower than the prevailing rate. Under those circumstances, the impact should be a one-time decrease in the price level, not an increase.
The regressive nature of GST is completely irrelevant in this discussion, because we’re replacing one regressive tax with another, and moreover one that is proven to be more efficient in raising tax revenues.
Almost all the gains in revenue collection from the switch to GST from SST will come from enforcing tax collection across the chain of production and distribution of goods and services, and not an increase in the overall tax burden to consumers.
Again, how can replacing SST with GST be inflationary?

Crave For Power, Anwar Lost The Plot

Gross miscalculation on Anwar's part. His narcissistic character and political grandstanding killed his chance of becoming the prime minister. The massive crowd in towns misled him into believing that taking the trophy will be a walk in the park. He lost sight of the fundamentals. He ignored the rustic rural communities where politicking are made easier by the smaller number of voters in each constituency.

Anwar beware! UMNO knew the game well. They will continue to win elections. The year 2018 will see a marked increase in support. 

He and his Pakatan people can go on crying wolf, organise big rallies but nothing is going to change the fact that they have miscalculated and ignored the power of the rural voters. 

These bunch of sore losers are now using allegation of frauds against BN to cover their biggest political clanger and again making the same mistake of using the same urban folks to try topple a duly elected government. 

Tunku Aziz, formerly of DAP has rightly described Anwar as an anarchist and untrustworthy and warned the government to put a stop to his dangerous political charade. 

This overconfident chameleonic politician has lost the plot and now resorting to public rallies to rattle, destabilise and hopefully overthrow the government with his streets culture. Aziz also advised Malaysians not to allow themselves be treated as cows by Pakatan Rakyat (PR).

Anwar boasted that by virtue of he and PR having gathered more popular votes, he should be in Putrajaya and should be the prime minister, not Najib and BN, the alleged cheaters. 

PR won by a negligible 386,285 votes, but Anwar thinks it justifies a revolution to overthrow the government. This desperate man coaxed unwary Malaysians into believing that he and Pakatan were cheated by massive frauds perpetrated by Najib and BN. Most Malaysians and, surprisingly, the so-called sophisticated urban dwellers supposedly to be more intelligent and discerning turned out to be more dense than one would have expected. They fall for Anwar's ruse, hook, line and sinker.

This country parliamentary system does not recognise popular votes as the mechanism to determine the winner and Anwar knew this better than anyone that he had fooled to believe otherwise. His greed for power had driven him to the edge of madness and does not give a damn to the well being of the people and the nation.

The same system exists in U.K. and there have been instances where party with less popular votes become the government. 

A referendum called on 5 May 2011 to replace the "first past the post" system  turned out to be a complete failure, 68% voted "NO" and preferred to keep the old system, only 32% voted "YES". Winning by virtue of an overall majority in the Commons continued to be the winning formula in Britain.

There are 650 parliamentary constituencies in U.K. Guess what? Who has the biggest slice of the cake?

England took the biggest slice with 533 constituencies, 59 in Scotland, 40 in Wales and 18 in Northern Ireland. So, the SOB English also gerrymander the constituencies in their favour. No wonder the Scots, Welsh and Irish are peeved with the English. However, the peeved Celts and Gaels organised no big rallies to complain of unfair parliamentary practices.

Trust the English for being fair, fair game is not in their lexicon, but based on population and land mass the English exercised their demographic and democratic rights that majority ruled the land.

In Malaysia, someone, our of intense and selfish desire to rule wants to change the rules of the game.

His name is Anwar Ibrahim!
