COME CLEAN on Lahad Datu strikes, we don't want a recurrence - PR ticks off Najib


COME CLEAN on Lahad Datu strikes, we don't want a recurrence - PR ticks off Najib
UPDATE 2 Pakatan Rakyat leaders have slammed Prime Minister Najib Razak and his administration for perceived shortcomings over his handling of the Sulu incursions in Lahad Datu, Sabah, urging him to "speak to the people" via Parliamentary channels.
"When you speak to the Parliament, you are speaking to the people and there is a need to go to the people in (this instance)," DAP MP for Bukit Bendera Liew Chin Teong told a press conference on Wednesday.
Liew was speaking at a joint press conference with PKR MP for Sungai Petani Johari Abdul and PAS MP for Kuala Selangor Khalid Samad.
The PR lawmakers want an explanation from Najib over 6 key aspects that have sparked great public concern, especially amongst Sabahans, saying that until the PM was willing to confront the issues, unhealthy and dangerous rumor-mongering would continue to spread.
"This will not help us to get to the bottom of what sparked the entire incident. What made it flare up until we had to send in fighter jets? The people are entitled to honest answers. Also without clearing up these questions, how can we come up with good solutions or formulate the right policies to resolve the lapses in our national security - not just in Sabah but in all the other states as well," Johari told Malaysia Chronicle on the sidelines of the conference.
The 6 issues that have since become the central talking points throughout the nation and which the PR leaders want Najib to respond to are:
> how many armed intruders were in Lahad Datu and how could they have slipped past Malaysia's security lines
> were the police given clear instructions and information to carry out their jobs during the strikes
> were the security forces given sufficient facilities to defend the country's borders
> did the intrusions occur as a result of failed monitoring and intelligence
> why wasn't the intrusion regarded as an armed threat right from the start
> was it an error of judgment on the part of Najib and his administration to misread and underestimate the danger and threat arising from the intrusion
MORE TO COME
