PAS Pokok Sena MP Mahfuz Omar has earlier this month exposed the scam and named the Election Commission (EC) deputy chairman, Wan Ahmad Wan Omar, as one of the masterminds of this great scam.
Wan Ahmad has denied being a mastermind but Mahfuz has upped the ante by saying that Wan Ahmad only denies being a mastermind but has not denied the existence of the scam under the code name of “Task Force MyKad”, which is also in cahoots with the National Registration Department (NRD).
The mission of “Task Force MyKad” is to give instant citizenship to illegals and foreign workers (legal as well as illegal) with the purpose of putting their names into the voters roll so as to enable them to vote.
And all these shenanigans were going on while the Parliamentary Select Committee (PSC) was having meetings with the purpose of electoral reform!
This means that the joke is on the rakyat and we have been cheated big-time by none other than Najib.
While promising us electoral reform, the EC under Najib’s instructions was in fact sabotaging the rakyat.
This is because recently on April 6 in a ceramah in Kedah, Mahfuz has named the Najib’s adviser Osman Razak, National Security Council secretary Tajuddin Wahab, EC’s Wan Ahmad and a few top NRD officers as part of “Task Force MyKad”.
Mahfuz stressed that he is daring in revealing this scam because he has solid evidence and this shows that Najib is cheating the rakyat. Therefore without much further ado, the PAS central working committee has decided to set up an ad hoc team called Anti-Pemalsuan IC (API) to collate information on this “Great Citizenship Scam”.
Mahfuz himself is leading the team. Among the team members are Hanifa Maidin (PAS legal counsel), Hatta Ramli (PAS Kuala Krai MP who was also in the PSC), Suhaizan Kaiat (Johor PAS Youth), Zul Hasmi and a few others who will be joining as the need arises.

Since 2010 when PKR’s Ampang MP Zuraida Kamaruddin discovered a plot to give citizenship to 2,000 foreign workers in Hulu Selangor, Pakatan Rakyat has been asking the BN government to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to investigate this MyKad scam.
Even in October last year, PAS Youth has discovered that busloads of foreign workers were being taken to the NRD in Putrajaya under suspicious reasons.
Of course the goverment will not be setting up any RCI as they themselves are the ones behind this scam.
In a recent interview with Harakah, Mahfuz mentioned that he and his team will try to arrange a meeting with the Keeper of the Rulers’ Seal so that they can submit a memorandum to the Council of Rulers to request for a RCI to be set up.
“This IC scam jeopardises the nation’s sovereignty. It is a very serious offence and places the country in a very great danger. Immediate steps must be taken to expose and stop this scam which is operating in the PM’s office itself and is headed by the PM’s righthand man,” said Mahfuz.
Mahfuz added that the people behind the IC scam which is Umno-BN is selling the nation and the “adat-istiadat raja-raja” and he urged as many of the rakyat as possible to attend the Bersih 3.0 sit-in at Dataran Merdeka on April 28.
Meanwhile, PAS Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad has labelled the masterminds of the “citizenship scam” as “traitors to the nation” and hopes that there will be a massive turnout for the Bersih event.
Khalid slammed Umno for sabotaging the PSC as well as sabotaging the rakyat, adding that there are those who accused the Bersih organisers and participants of being traitors whereas in fact the traitors are those who cheat in order to stay in power.
Mahfuz, who already has three thick files on the scam, has announced that he will give all the information which he has collated to the RCI if it is set up.
It is now as clear as day that Najib’s 1Malaysia slogan should be amended to “1Asia” as he is hellbent on giving citizenship to nationals from Asian countries.
Where countries across the globe impose stringent conditions before granting citizenship to the applicants, the BN government is granting citizenship to illegals and foreign workers at the drop of a hat as long as they pledge to vote BN.
