The DAP adviser says Umno will shift its goalposts as long as it suits them politically.
DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng said Umno’s top two are contradicting each other on the issue of Loke Siew Fook stepping down as transport minister.
MALIM: DAP adviser Lim Guan Eng tonight accused Umno of making a U-turn on Loke Siew Fook’s resignation as transport minister, following the commencement of former prime minister Najib Razak’s house arrest.
Lim said Umno was “full of contradictions”, pointing out that party president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had praised Loke, the DAP secretary-general, describing him as a “man of principle” for keeping to his promise to step down.
“But today, there is a 180-degree turn by Umno which is now claiming (that Loke’s resignation) is disrespectful of the king’s powers (to grant pardons),” he said at a ceramah here, referring to Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan.
Earlier today, Mohamad claimed that Loke appeared to have questioned the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s constitutional power to grant pardons by resigning as transport minister.
He said Loke’s claim that his resignation was based on principle could instead be seen as a protest against the decision to grant Najib a conditional pardon.
Loke had announced his resignation as transport minister in September after Najib was granted a conditional pardon, but said it would only take effect when the former Umno president began serving his SRC jail term under house arrest, which began yesterday.
Lim wondered why Umno had never raised the matter before Loke’s resignation took effect.
He said Umno would shift its goalposts as long as it suited them politically.
“I think we have had enough of this nonsense. It’s time for Umno to leave (the unity government),” the former finance minister said.
He said he hoped Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim would ask Umno to leave the government to allow Pakatan Harapan to administer the country.
“(Kick them out) to prevent Umno from openly sabotaging us and using the government resources to topple the unity government,” he said. - FMT
Khoo Poay Tiong says voters will have to decide 'how to respond' when they go to the polls on Saturday.
Melaka DAP chief Khoo Poay Tiong said people have expressed disappointment over Umno settling Najib Razak’s RM50 million fine during his walkabouts over the past two days.
MELAKA: Umno’s decision to pay a RM50 million fine to secure former prime minister Najib Razak’s house arrest has upset Melaka voters, says state DAP chief Khoo Poay Tiong.
Former Umno president Najib was granted a house arrest order by the Kuala Lumpur High Court after Umno paid his RM50 million fine using funds collected through a donation drive launched in September.
Khoo, who is also the Kota Melaka MP, said people from various backgrounds have expressed dissatisfaction and disappointment about the matter during his walkabouts over the past two days.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a Pakatan Harapan ceramah in Malim tonight, he questioned Umno’s decision to pay the fine during the state election campaign.
He said Umno had lost the 2018 general election because of the 1MDB scandal, and Melaka voters would have to decide how to respond at the polls on Saturday.
“Umno is arrogant. They don’t care about the people’s feelings. They think they can win big, that’s why they dare to do this,” he said.
“Even during the campaign period, they dared to pay the RM50 million. Otherwise, Najib wouldn’t be at home now.”
Khoo also said PH’s campaign was gaining momentum after a slow start, with the mood having “picked up” over the past two or three days.
He said DAP was counting on its nearly 60-year presence in Melaka, its track record, and house-to-house campaigning to secure voter support.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim previously said he disagreed with Umno paying Najib’s RM50 million fine as it could give the public the impression that “large-scale corruption can go unpunished”.
Najib was jailed in August 2022 after the Federal Court upheld his conviction for abuse of power, criminal breach of trust and money laundering involving RM42 million in SRC International funds.
He was sentenced to 12 years in jail and fined RM210 million.
In January 2024, then Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Al-Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah halved the prison sentence and reduced his fine to RM50 million as part of a royal pardon.
In September this year, the current Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Ibrahim, granted Najib a further conditional pardon, allowing him to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028, if he settled his RM50 million fine and complied with all the other stipulated conditions. - FMT
The former Selangor menteri besar says the transport minister's resignation is in contempt of the Federal Constitution, which empowers the king to grant pardons.
Khir Toyo said Loke Siew Fook’s resignation as transport minister could influence youths to disrespect the Federal Constitution.
MELAKA: Former Umno supreme council member Khir Toyo has called for police reports to be lodged against DAP’s Loke Siew Fook for stepping down as transport minister following the commencement of former prime minister Najib Razak’s house arrest.
Khir said Loke’s decision to resign was unacceptable, claiming that it was also in contempt of Article 42 of the Federal Constitution, which empowers the king to grant pardons.
“Where is the supremacy of the constitution, the rule of law, or the loyalty to king and country?” he asked, referring to three of the five Rukun Negara principles.
“Police reports should be lodged so action can be taken.”
Speaking at a ceramah here tonight, the former Selangor menteri besar, who was jailed for 12 months for corruption in 2015, warned against ignoring Loke’s resignation, saying it could influence youths to disrespect the Federal Constitution.
Loke announced his resignation in September following the king’s decision to grant Najib a conditional pardon, allowing him to serve the remainder of his prison sentence in the SRC International case under house arrest until Aug 23, 2028.
The DAP secretary-general’s resignation, however, took effect yesterday after Najib was allowed to go home to his residence in Taman Duta, Kuala Lumpur.
Earlier today, Barisan Nasional deputy chairman Mohamad Hasan claimed that Loke appeared to have questioned the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s constitutional power to grant pardons by resigning as transport minister.
Mohamad said Loke’s claim that his resignation was based on principle could instead be seen as a protest against the decision to grant Najib a conditional pardon. - FMT
