Constitutional monarchy proves to be an important bulwark of parliamentary democracy in Malaysia


(Tatal ke bawah untuk kenyataan versi BM)

Malaysians from all walks of life thank the Yang di Pertuan Agong Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah for deciding not to declare a state of emergency after a special meeting with Malay Rulers today.

The system of constitutional monarchy has proven that it is an important bulwark of parliamentary democracy in Malaysia.

All Malaysians, especially the 221 Members of Parliament, must now unite to forge an “all-of-government” and “whole-of society” war against the third wave of the Covid-19 epidemic in Malaysia.

The latest report, showing a reduction of 465 Covid-19 infections  (yesterday’s reported 823 Covid-19 cases as compared to 1,288 cases the previous day) should be an encouragement to frontliners and all Malaysians to redouble their efforts to flatten the curve of the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic in Malaysia.

Special attention must be given to Sabah as it is the epicentre of the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.

All MPs must be single-minded to ensure that we must save lives and livelihoods in this “once-in-a-century” catastrophe of the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Media comment by DAP MP for Iskandar Puteri Lim Kit Siang in Gelang Patah on Sunday, 25th October 2020.

 


Raja berpelembagaan terus kekal sebagai benteng utama mempertahankan demokrasi berparlimen di Malaysia

Rakyat Malaysia daripada pelbagai latar belakang berterima kasih kepada Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah kerana memutuskan untuk tidak mengisytiharkan darurat selepas mesyuarat khas Majlis Raja-Raja hari ini.

Sistem raja berpelembagaan kita terbukti sebagai satu benteng utama mempertahankan sistem demokrasi berparlimen di Malaysia.

Semua rakyat Malaysia, terutamanya 221 Ahli Parlimen, perlu bersatu padu untuk membentuk usaha yang melibatkan “keseluruhan kerajaan” dan “keseluruhan masyarakat” untuk memerangi gelombang ketiga wabak Covid-19 di Malaysia.

Laporan terkini menunjukkan penurunan 465 kes jangkitan Covid-19 (sejumlah 823 kes untuk hari ini berbanding dengan 1,288 kes semalam) yang sepatutnya menjadi berita yang memberansangkan terutamanya para petugas barisan hadapan, dan seluruh rakyat Malaysia, untuk menggandakan usaha kita semua dalam mendatarkan lekuk penularan gelombang ketiga wabak Covid-19 di Malaysia.

Perhatian khusus perlu diberikan kepada Sabah yang kini menjadi pusat penularan utama wabak ini.

Semua Ahli-ahli Parlimen perlu fokus kepada usaha untuk menyelamatkan nyawa dan kehidupan dalam berhadapan dengan bencana wabak Covid-19 “sekali dalam seabad” ini.

    YDPA did the right thing but what was his reasoning? If YDPA idea was that Muhiyiddin can compromise with UMNO to stablize his govt, its still not ideal because UMNO also need a election that they can win big to truly stabilise the govt..

    The only real immediately stabilising govt is PN to work with Pakatan essentially must include DAP to be truly stable. BUT that would be destroying a half century lie by UMNO of “selagi tidak DAP” or “semua salah DAP”..

    The YDPA did the right thing, but the right thing is hard and Muhiyiddin is the one that has to do it, not YDPA.
