马华中央党部发言人李伟杰谴责首相署部长再米尔建议以回教刑事法对付攫夺匪是矫枉过正的做法,而且有关刑罚的实施也违背联邦宪法的世俗精神。
“有关建议不符合大马作为世俗国的国情,也本末倒置,如果此例一开,将导致宗教极端和保守主义大行其道。此外,断肢法过于残暴,违反人道主义,与大马多元、中庸国情是不相符的。”
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰表示,真正解决攫夺匪日益猖獗的方法,是通过加强警方人力来达成目标。警方需加强打击攫夺案的行动,将攫夺匪缉拿归案,再由司法来裁定他们所应获得的惩罚。
李伟杰强调,马华反对任何企图实施回教刑事法的建议,包括以断肢法对付攫夺匪。马华一贯的立场是,坚持捍卫联邦宪法的世俗精神。

MCA upholds Federal Constitution & opposes Islamic state
MCA spokesman and Central Committee member Lee Wei Kiat reiterated MCA’s firm insistence of abiding by the guiding principles of the Federal Constitution in objecting against an Islamic state in Malaysia. Therefore, MCA opposes the proposed unity government between UMNO and PAS, whereby the latter’s goals are to achieve an Islamic state.
In regards to the issue of the unity government, Wei Kiat emphasized that cooperation must not be based on any form of "Malay supremacy’ principle or Islamist ideals. “This would potentially marginalize non-Malays and non-Muslims, and possibly infringe upon their rights as well.”
Lee, who is also MCA Information and Communication Bureau Chairman stated that the party believes that Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat should work together on issues of national importance, such as economic recovery and good governance. “This form of cooperation would not only be in the interests of the people and the greater good, but also adheres to the guiding principles of the Federal Constitution.”
“MCA believes that although the different political factions may hold different interests and goals, they must cooperate on national issues in order to serve the greater good of the people, and promote a functioning welfare state. Among these pressing issues is a need for improved dialogue and greater trust between the parties, maintaining a stable political environment, and perhaps most importantly, dealing with the global economic recession in its effect on Malaysia.”

马华反对神权回教国,反对与回教党组联合政府
马华中央党部发言人李伟杰重申,马华始终坚持以联邦宪法为依归,反对在马来西亚建立神权回教国是马华一贯的立场,因此马华反对与仍然以建立回教国为目标的回教党组成联合政府。
针对巫统与回教党合作的课题,李伟杰强调有关合作不能以大马来人主义或回教主义为议程,以免非马来人及非回教徒的权益遭边缘化。
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰表示,马华认同国阵与民联应该基于拼经济及维持政治稳定的原因进行合作,为国家及人民的整体利益并肩努力,有关合作也必须以建国原则和联邦宪法为最终依归。
“马华认为,虽然各别政治阵营拥有不同的理念与议程,但为了国家及人民的福祉,国阵与民联应该进行朝野合作,包括针对各项经济、政治、社会议题展开正面及互信的谈判和协商,确保国家政局稳定,全力应对经济不景。”

MCA denounces PAS’ proposal of unity government
MCA Spokesperson Sdr Lee Wei Kiat today emphasized that once the talk on a unity government between PAS and UMNO materializes, it will result in the Islamization of the country while at the same time creating a scenario whereby only the Malays will be in the government while non-Malays will be at the Opposition front. He added that under this circumstance, the rights of the non-Malays maybe be marginalized. Thus, MCA strongly opposes any proposal by PAS to form a unity government with UMNO.
"There is a hidden agenda behind the call by PAS to form a unity government with UMNO, that is to strengthen their party’s position in Malaysia and then to implement their ulterior goal of setting up an Islamic state in the country. As MCA has been consistent in our party’s position of opposing any proposal by PAS to set up an Islamic state in this country, the party cannot and will not accept such a proposal,” he stressed.
Wei Kiat who is also the MCA Information and Communication Bureau Chairman criticized the resolutions tabled at the recently concluded PAS assembly which among others include maintaining the 30% quota for Bumiputeras, opposing the decision by the government in liberalizing the 27 service sub-sectors in the country and calling for the banning of Sisters in Islam (SIS). “PAS has shown that the so-called democracy, equality, justice and the slogan “PAS for All” as advocated by them is mere rhetoric. The resolutions as endorsed by PAS have shown that PAS’ ulterior objective is to set up a theocratic Islamic state.”
Wei Kiat also challenges DAP and PKR to announce their firm stand on PAS’ motives of forming a unity government with UMNO with the ultimate aim of establishing a theocratic Islamic state. “If PAS fails to respond, then perhaps it is timely for DAP and PKR with withdraw their association with PAS.”

将导致非马来人权益边缘化,马华反对回巫联合政府
马华中央党部发言人李伟杰表示,一旦巫统与回教党组成联合政府,将导致大马来人主义以及回教主义的抬头,形成马来人在朝、非马来人在野的局面,在这种情况下,非马来人权益将被边缘化,因此马华反对回教党与巫统组成联合政府的建议。
此外,李伟杰也指出,回教党提出联合政府的背后议程,不外是为了在壮大势力后,能够顺利推动其神权回教国目标,基于不能接受神权回教国的原则,马华反对联合政府的建议。
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰抨击,回教党在其大会上所提出的多项议决,包括要求政府保留30%土著固打制、反对政府开放27个次领域的措施、要求查禁回教姐妹组织等,显示回教党口头上高喊公正、民主和平等,打出全民回教党的口号,根本是只为了捞取选票,这些议决已经曝露出回教党的最终目的就是要建立神权回教国。
李伟杰也挑战行动党和公正党正式与回教党断绝关系,因为回教党对两党的反对视若无睹,一意孤行的提出联合政府建议,如果两党继续姑息回教党,则表示两党可以容忍回教党为了推行回教国目标而不惜与任何人合作的投机行为。

Divergent positions on unity government reveal internal conflicts within Pakatan Rakyat – So-called co-operation merely to fish votes
PAS President Dato’ Seri Abdul Hadi Awang has not given up the idea of a unity government with UMNO. His deputy, Nasharudin Mat Isa has taken a similar stand in that he mentioned that PAS is open for unity talks. However, both PKR and DAP do not accept the same position. “This indicates how deep the internal conflicts within Pakatan Rakyat plunges that a matter of such national interest still is unable to be resolved by the three Opposition parties,” remarked Sdr Lee Wei Kiat, the Spokesperson for MCA.
Wei Kiat, pointed out that, “Hadi Awang had informed the public that the concept a unity government had been acknowledged and received the support of DAP and PKR. Immediately in response, both DAP and PKR denied knowledge of such talks. PKR Deputy President Dr Syed Husin Ali refuted PAS’ claims that PKR supported the formation of a unity government. Meanwhile, DAP Stalwart Lim Kit Siang also disputed Hadi Awang’s claim that DAP was positive to PAS talks of a unity government.”
Adding that “in the past, Pakatan Rakyat leaders would say that they have an internal machinery where all disagreements were voiced out, and problems solved through musyawarah. They further claimed that if a consensus was not reached, the issue would be discussed further,” to which Wei Kiat said, “from what we’ve observed, there clearly isn’t any instances of consensus within Pakatan Rakyat. Formation of a unity government is a very major national matter which involves the country’s future direction. If they cannot reach an agreement on this issue, it reveals that their so-called ‘teamwork’ runs along the lines of empty talk. Their co-operation is merely to garner votes from the public.”
On Pakatan Rakyat’s claims that any disagreements within the internal machinery shows there is democracy within the Opposition, Wei Kiat dismissed it as “an excuse. In reality, Pakatan Rakyat’s disagreement over the unity talks reveals that their internal machinery is not a feasible nor a workable idea. Trying to implement their consensus decision is an exercise in futility. They are unlike Barisan Nasional where cabinet decisions are reached and carried out based on consensus.”
Meanwhile, rebuking PAS for claiming that it is able to co-operate with anyone including non-Muslims, Wei Kiat who also heads the party’s Information and Communication Bureau further highlighted that “PAS is an opportunist party who will join in a partnership with any party just for the sake of wrestling power and for self benefit. Although PAS claims they champion human rights, a welfare state for everybody, in reality, this is just their façade to fish for votes.”

回教党联合政府建议是投机主义,民联合作虚有其表精神分裂
马华中央党部发言人李伟杰表示,由回教党提出与巫统组联合政府的课题,已曝露民联严重的内部矛盾,显示民联的合作是一种虚有其表、精神分裂的状态。
李伟杰也抨击,回教党声称可以与巫统合作,显示该党为了得到政权和利益而与任何人合作,这完全是一种没有原则的投机主义,该党口口声声为公正、人权斗争的口号,也根本是只为了捞取选票。
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰指出,哈迪阿旺多次强调所谓的联合政府概念得到民联成员党的认同,但在另一方面,公正党和行动党却说不认同,林吉祥甚至表示这个概念不曾在民联内部讨论。
“这个矛盾显示民联的内部商谈机制,例如所谓的领导层会议,根本是一个虚有其表、没有实际功能的形式化会议,因为民联领袖连一个课题到底有没有讨论过都各说各话、自相矛盾。”
李伟杰强调,民联成员党往往为了掩饰本身的内部矛盾,而抛出所谓“有争论代表三党平起平坐、相互制衡”的说辞,根本是自欺欺人的藉口,因为联合政府课题关乎大原则和大方针,如果连这个课题也没有共识,表示民联是一个没有原则、纯粹为了政权利益的组织。

PAS calls for the maintenance of the 30% Bumiputera quota
MCA Spokesperson Sdr Lee Wei Kiat today criticized the statement made by the PAS Youth wing which urged the government to maintain the 30% quota for Bumiputeras as this stand has contradicted the stand taken by them in the past which was to abolish the New Economic Policy (NEP). “The stand taken by PAS Youth clearly shows that they are opportunists and are trying to score political mileage during their party assembly,” he said.
Wei Kiat pointed out that PKR de-facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has many times reiterated that he will abolish NEP if he successfully formed the government and he also mentioned that he will introduce New Economic Agenda. He added that Anwar had also in many occasions reiterated that he will treat all Malaysians equally regardless of race, skin colour and religion. Thus, the statement made by the PAS Youth wing urging the government to maintain the 30% quota for Bumiputeras does not reflect any sincerity from the Pakatan Rakyat’s coalition towards the public.
“Prime Minister YAB Dato’ Sri Najib’s recent announcement on the liberalization of services and financial sector is aimed at bringing the country’s economy towards a more competitive environment and is also in line with the ASEAN regional integration and as well as the trend of globalization. His recent visit to China is aimed at fostering closer bilateral relations between both countries. However, the calls by the PAS Youth wing in urging the government to maintain the 30% for Bumiputreas is a short-sighted move and it will not help to bring the country forward,” Wei Kiat emphasized.
Sdr Lee Wei Kiat who is also the MCA Information and Communication Bureau Chairman challenges Anwar and Lim Guan Eng to declare their stand clearly, to explain to the voters the stand taken by PAS Youth wing and whether they either agree to abolish or maintain the NEP as stated by PAS Youth.

回青团要保留30%土著固打,民联说要废新经政策只为捞选票
马华中央党部发言人李伟杰抨击回青团要求政府保留30%土著固打制,显示民联之前口口声声要废除新经济政策的宣言,根本是一种旨在选举期间捞取选票的投机言论。
李伟杰指出,以公正党实权领袖安华为首的民联,多次声称要在执政后废除新经济政策,并提出所谓的“新经济议程”,宣称要不分种族、肤色与宗教的平等对待各族人民,如今回青团的这项要求已曝露出民联这些宣言根本是言不由衷。
“首相纳吉近期陆续宣布了针对服务业及金融业的开放措施,决心带领我国经济朝向更开放与公平的竞争环境,以顺应东协一体化及全球化的国际趋势,近日的访华之行也努力开拓马中两国更紧密与全面的合作,但回青团却在这个时候提出要求保留30%土著固打制,无疑是一种固步自封、短视保守的倒退言行。”
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰挑战安华及林冠英,针对回青团的动议表态,明确向选民交待对于回青团言论以及民联是否赞同废除新经济政策等课题的立场。

电脑出错理由难接受,理大副校长应考虑辞职
马华中央党部发言人李伟杰要求理科大学针对4574名学生录取后又除名的事件作出合理解释,并鉴定应该为此事件负上责任的相关官员,采取必要行动,包括副校长阿末苏基里本身亦必须考虑引咎辞职。
李伟杰表示,马华对于理科大学的严重错误感到非常不满,有关事件不仅有损理科大学的“顶尖大学”地位,对我国高等教育的形象带来负面影响,更不可原谅的是无辜受害的学子们所遭受的伤害,不管是对他们的心理或升学,都造成难以弥补的打击。
也是马华新闻局主任的李伟杰指出,从受害学生人数高达4574名来看,校方所给予的电脑出错问题的理由,是让人无法接受的。
“校方除了必须尽快解决问题,亦必须以透明、问责、果断的态度,对应该负责任者采取严厉惩罚行动。”
