#kerajaangagal70 – The Yang di Pertuan Agong should host an All-Party All-NGOs Conference on the Covid-19 Pandemic to avoid Malaysia from becoming an international poster boy of a nation losing the war against the Covid-19 pandemic
Before Hari Raya Aidilfirtri, Malaysians were sorely offended when the Indonesian Government used Malaysia, together with India, in its admonishment as two countries Indonesians should not emulate for the mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic in its advice to Indonesians to stay home and to take precautions about Covid-19 in the Hari Raya Aidilfitri holidays.
Now Malaysia has together with India become the two international poster boys of failure in the handling of Covid-19 pandemic, although this is unfair to India, as it had been on a sharp decline since its peak of daily increase of 414,422 new Covid-19 cases on May 6, which fell 53% to a daily increase of 195,815 new Covid-19 cases on 14th May 2021.

#kerajaangagal69: What a contrast – Noor Hisham warning Malaysians to be prepared for the worst in the Covid-19 pandemic while the worst country in the world in the pandemic, the United States with 34 million Covid-19 cases and over 600,000 Covid-19 deaths, looking forward to the end of the pandemic!

What a contrast – the Health Director-General Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah warning Malaysians to be prepared for the worst in the Covid-19 pandemic while the worst country in the world in the pandemic, the United States with 34 million Covid-19 cases and over 600,000 Covid-19 deaths, looking forward to the end of the pandemic!
This is the extent of the failure of Malaysia in the mishandling of the war against the Covid-19 pandemic in the last 17 months – akin to the horrible Light Rail Transit (LRT) collision in Kuala Lumpur because a negligent driver drove the LRT in the wrong direction, resulting in three passengers suffering brain haemorrhage, a systemic failure which should never have happened.

#kerajaangagal68 – We need a new Commander-in-Chief after losing the 17-month war against Covid-19 pandemic – one whom all Malaysians have trust and confidence in his leadership and vision in the war against Covid-19 pandemic and not one who does not mind being called “stupid”!

Malaysia needs a new Commander-in-Chief after losing the 17-month war against the Covid-19 pandemic – one whom all Malaysians have trust and confidence in his leadership and vision in the war against Covid-19 pandemic and not one who does not mind being called “stupid”!
When Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin became the eighth Prime Minister of Malaysia on March 1, 2020, there were 29 Covid-19 cases and zero Covid-19 death. Read the rest of this entry »
#kerajaangagal67 – Khairy should approve the two million doses of Covid-19 vaccine to Penang to give Yong Chee Kong a chance to redeem himself and deliver on his claim
(Tatal ke bawah untuk kenyataan versi BM)
The minister-in-charge of Covid-19 vaccination, Khairy Jamaluddin should approve the two million doses of Covid-19 vaccine to Penang to give businessman Yong Chee Kong a chance to redeem himself and deliver on his claim.
Yesterday, Yong clarified that the formal letter on behalf of him to the Penang state government pledging to donate two million doses of Covid-19 vaccine was written by a staff member from his company and not by Penang DAP as he had said earlier and he made an apology over the matter.
Yong said that if he could get the approval letter from the government for the two million doses of Covid-19 vaccine, his “boss” was still willing to donate the vaccines to the people of Penang. Read the rest of this entry »

Malaysia beating the world’s top ten countries with the most cumulative total of Covid-19 cases on Sunday in the category of “confirmed cases per million” is a great dishonour and shame for the country.
These statistics are available on the Our World In Data website. For Sunday, 23rd May 2021, the “daily confirmed cases per million” for Malaysia and the top 10 countries with the most cumulative total of Covid-19 cases are as follows: Read the rest of this entry »
#kerajaangagal65 – Muhyiddin should be mindful of the 18-rung freefall of Malaysia’s press freedom index and remind his bloated Cabinet to follow his example of tolerating critics including those who call him “stupid”
Posted by Kit in Media, Muhyiddin Yassin on Monday, 24 May 2021, 6:03 pm
The Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, should be mindful of the 18-rung freefall of Malaysia’s 2021 press freedom index and remind his bloated Cabinet to follow his example of tolerating critics including those who call him “stupid”.
It is most unfortunate that the clampdown on press freedom has happened under the charge of the Minister for Communications and Multimedia, Saifuddin Abdullah, who had always presented himself as a liberal and open-minded person who would be in the forefront to champion press freedom instead of doing the very opposite.

The Police should learn from the Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to be less stiff and stuffy or are the Police going to charge social media users for sedition if they had called the police “stupid” in the “Nilai3 is in Selangor” incident?
Muhyiddin said in a special telecast last night that people can scold the Prime Minister “stupid” in the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, that it’s okay and he would say it on television.
But can the people scold the police “stupid” when they were “stupid”? Read the rest of this entry »

The Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said he was prepared to take abuse from the public amid frustration over measures against Covid-19 but urged people to play their part in bringing the pandemic under control.

Who won and who lost from the National Security Council (NSC) meeting of Friday not to impose a total lockdown in the war against Covid-19 pandemic?
The people and the nation lost, but the Muhyiddin government thinks it has won, which is most dubious despite several self-seeking opinion polls showing Muhyiddin Yassin head and shoulders above all others in the popularity stakes. Read the rest of this entry »
#kerajaangagal60 – The total lack of urgency of the Prime Minister and his lieutenants about the worsening Covid-19 pandemic with over a half-million cases, over 6,000 daily increase of new Covid-19 cases and 2,199 deaths illustrated by nonchalant announcement of the crucial NSC meeting yesterday
Malaysians are right to be outraged by the indifference of the Prime Minister, Muhyiddin Yassin and his lieutenants about the worsening Covid-19 pandemic with over half-a-million Covid-19 cases, the fourth consecutive daily increase of over 6,000 new Covid-19 cases and 2,199 Covid-19 deaths.
This total lack of urgency and gravity of Muhyiddin and his lieutenants over the worsening Covid-19 pandemic have been illustrated by the nonchalant manner in which the decisions of the National Security Council (NSC) were announced today. Read the rest of this entry »
#kerajaangagal59 – Why is the police doing a disservice to Prime Minister Muhyiddin by investigating Syed Saddiq and enlarging the deficit of public trust and confidence in the authorities during the testing time of Covid-19 pandemic?
I am shocked by the police investigation against the former youth and sports minister and MP for Muar Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman in connection with the custodial death of A. Ganapathy.
Instead of the police holding an inquest by a magistrate into the death of
Ganapathy to increase public trust and confidence and to show that the Police is world-class as it has nothing to hide, it has instead gone on a wild goose’ chase to investigate those who had been asking for justice for Ganapathy. Read the rest of this entry »
#kerajaangagal58 – New IGP Acryl Sani must succeed where seven IGPs have failed – transform Royal Malaysia Police into a world-class police force and implement proposals of the Police Royal Commission 16 years ago especially to hold an inquiry into every case of police death in custody

The new IGP Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani must succeed where seven IGPs before him have failed – to transform the Royal Malaysia Police into a world-class police force and implement the proposal of the Police Royal Commission 16 years ago especially to hold an inquiry into every case of police death in custody.
Sixteen years ago in 2005, the Police Royal Commission headed by a former Chief Justice, Tun Dzaiddin and the longest-serving former IGP, Tun Hanif Omar, said in its report that it viewed with “grave concern the unacceptable high incidence of deaths in custody and the failure by the authorities to hold inquests before magistrates in most of the cases” and proposed that “inquiries must be held by a magistrate into all cases of death in custody within one month of receiving the report of death”.

#kerajaangagal56 – will all Malaysians who were vaccinated this year require a booster shot next year?
There is widespread scepticism and doubt that the Co-ordinating Minister for National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme would be able to fulfil his promise to complete the national vaccination rollout by this year, as after nearly three months of the national vaccination campaign, only 2.4 per cent of the population had been fully vaccinated while 3.9 per cent of the population had been given one dose of the vaccine.
We have seven months to go before the end of the year. Even if we speed up national vaccination rollout, is it possible to achieve the 60-70 per cent vaccination of the Malaysian population necessary to achieve the herd immunity for the Covid-19 virus? Read the rest of this entry »
