How to co-operate with Najib when he is not prepared to admit the 1MDB scandal?


(Tatal ke bawah untuk kenyataan versi BM)

Early this morning, I received a message asking whether a Coverage report with the heading “DAP Lim Kit Siang : ‘To Save Malaysia, I Am Prepared To Work With Najib To Restore Democracy & Implement Key Reforms’ ” dated October 15, 2020 came from me.

This was my reply: “It’s a very qualified statement where principles and national objectives take priority. Yes I am prepared to work with Najib to save Malaysia – but how can this be done when he is not prepared to admit the 1mdb scandal?”

The Coverage report has gone viral on the social media, with the objective to give the impression that I agree with DAP working with Najib Razak and UMNO to form a new national government to replace the Muhyiddin government.

This is the work of social media “influencers” with their pack of cybertroopers to disseminate fake news and false impressions.

The report is actually a self-explanatory Malay Mail report of 12th March 2016 when Najib was still the Prime Minister just after I had signed the Citizens’ Declaration in March 2016 to Save Malaysia.

There have been much water under the bridge in the past four years – the seemingly Najib government had fallen, Najib had been found guilty of corruption offences by the Kuala Lumpur High Court and he and his Ministers are facing other multiple corruption charges in the courts, the Pakatan Harapan government had been toppled by the backdoor “Sheraton Move” conspiracy after 22 months and the country is faced with an illegitimate and kakistocratic administration which had brought on Malaysians the second and third waves of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The overarching national objective to “Save Malaysia” from a trajectory of a kleptocratic, kakistocratic and a failed state is as urgent as ever.

The challenge is whether we can inspire Malaysians, regardless of race, religion, politics, class, age or gender to mount another herculean effort to “Save Malaysia” – after the failure of the earlier “Save Malaysia” campaign.

=========================

Bagaimana untuk bekerjasama dengan Najib jika beliau tidak bersedia untuk mengakui skandal 1MDB?

Awal pagi hari ini, saya telah menerima mesej mengenai sama ada laporan The Coverage yang bertajuk “DAP Lim Kit Siang : ‘To Save Malaysia, I Am Prepared To Work With Najib To Restore Democracy & Implement Key Reforms’ ” yang bertarikh 15 Oktober 2020 dikeluarkan oleh saya.

Berikut adalah jawapan saya: “Kenyataan ini adalah kenyataan bersyarat, di mana prinsip dan objektif negara diberikan keutamaan. Ya, saya bersedia untuk bekerjasama dengan Najib untuk menyelamatkan Malaysia — tetapi bagaimanakah perkara ini hendak dilakukan jika beliau tidak bersedia mengakui mengenai skandal 1MDB?”

Laporan portal The Coverage ini telah tular di media sosial, dengan objektif untuk mengatakan yang saya bersetuju untuk DAP bekerjasama dengan Najib Razak dan UMNO untuk membentuk sebuah kerajaan baharu bagi menggantikan kerajaan Muhyiddin.

Ini adalah kerja “pemengaruh” media sosial dengan sokongan tentera siber mereka untuk menyebarkan berita dan tanggapan palsu.

Laporan ini sebenarnya adalah laporan daripada akhbar Malay Mail yang bertarikh 12 Mac 2016, semasa Najib masih lagi merupakan seorang Perdana Menteri, sejurus selepas saya menandatangani Deklarasi Rakyat pada Mac 2016 untuk Menyelamatkan Malaysia.

Sudah terdapat banyak perkembangan yang berlaku dalam tempoh empat tahun yang berlalu — kejatuhan kerajaan Najib, Najib didapati bersalah di atas tuduhan rasuah di Mahkamah Tinggi Kuala Lumpur, beliau bersama-sama dengan menteri beliau berhadapan dengan pelbagai lagi dakwaan rasuah di mahkamah, kejatuhan kerajaan Pakatan Harapan yang disebabkan oleh konspirasi “Langkah Sheraton” selepas 22 bulan, dan negara kita berhadapan dengan pemerintahan tidak sah dan kakistokratik yang membawa bersamanya gelombang kedua dan ketiga wabak Covid-19.

Matlamat “Selamatkan Malaysia” daripada sebuah trajektori kleptokratik, kakistokratik, dan sebuah negara gagal ini kekal relevan dan mendesak.

Cabarannya adalah sama ada kita mampu untuk memberikan inspirasi kepada semua rakyat Malaysia, tanpa mengira kaum, agama, latar belakang politik, kelas, umur, mahupun jantina, untuk bersama “Selamatkan Malaysia” — selepas kegagalan usaha menyelamatkan Malaysia sebelum ini.

    Absolutely no compromise in NOT working with thieves. Particularly those who nearly brought the country to its knees, and caused the country to be in ridicule from the international markets. No compromise, Kit. If Bijan is in, I’m out.

    Nothing is going to happen. Zahid Hamidi will claim the letter he gave Anwar is not valid and had conditions or some excuse. No way they had any intent to work with Anwar.

    Let’s just get to everyone telling Zahid Hamidi to resign as President of UMNO..
