Refer to the linkhttps://www.thevibes.com/articles/news/44274/ismail-sabri-gives-anwar-letter-confirming-minister-level-perks I strongly disagree the move
to give Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim minister-level perks. Reasons for opposing
government granting minister amenities to opposition leader especially Datuk
Seri Anwar Ibrahim are as enumerated below:
1. I do not know what is the content of Memorandum between government and
the opposition party however giving minister-level amenities to opposition
party leader may be seen as bribery that will erode democracy.
a. Public money should be spend in the most cost effective manner thus any
resources spent must corresponding to the value it bring. What value Datuk Seri
Anwar expected to bring from the perks?
b. What is the reason to giving Anwar minister-level perks without people’s
mandate& expertise that is critically to what needed, urgent and no
alternative, I believe Anwar is not essential and this is against the spirit of
democracy: he is not mandated by majority.
c. Although how he was being elected as Port Dickson Member of Parliament
is legal but it is not democratic. The previous MP was perfectly fit and capable
but resigned just for him to take over.
d. Giving minister-level perks to leader of opposition faction affect free
debate& critics hence jeopardizing democracy process in the parliament and
executive.
2.
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim have
a very seedy personal quality and sordid history.

a. He was being charges& imprisoned for sodomy& corruption twice,
first in April 1999 then in 2015. Although both times is alleged being put into
jail because of gutter politic played by his political opponents yet he still willingly
formed a political coalition in 2018 with Tun Dr. Mahathir, the very person
that removed all his position in government in September 1998 before accused&
caused him incarcerated. Therefore, whether he was innocent and being put to
jail because of Mahathir's gutter politics or he indeed committed the crime
(raped men and corruption), his personal quality is unquestionable seedy and
unacceptable to receive any perks derive from public fund.
b. Apparently, he did not fight for the justice he proclaimed which imply
he openly cheating his supporters, as he should fight for his innocent in court
to clear his name but instead he did otherwise in exchange to be anointed as
Prime Minister by Dr. Mahathir under Pakatan Harapan government.
c. He was also being reported for raping women in the past multiple times
when he was Deputy Prime Minister.
d. Received royal pardon for his last 6 months jail terms without going
through proper procedure is disrespect to the pardon board and royalty since
his pardon was being rejected by pardon board in 2015.
3. Clandestinely undermining Barisan Nasional ability to debate and
live up to the principles of democracy.
a. In others autocratic country, leader use force to subdue opponent and
dissidents. What tactic deploying in Malaysia now is soft-approach but not less
lethal for democracy. By buying opposition over, it is moving toward autocratic
and non-democratic political system where nobody question government doing and
thus no liability for public official for their doings.
b. How Barisan Nasional could strength its position is to proof it
to the people government capability in overcome difficulties and make life
better for all. Result speak for itself, not silence opponent by carrots and
canes.
4. Anwar and his family hypocrisy encompasses his wife& daughter which
act in conflict of interest to one another in the past.
a.
Anwar, himself equate
giving all member of parliament indiscriminately is a keen to crime<https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2020/04/14/a-crime-to-give-extra-perks-to-all-mps-anwar-says-on-political-appointments/> thus, he would not accept the
offer unless he is being hypocrisy. If so, his character can not be trusted.
b.
Anwar's wife, Wan Aziza, was
Deputy Prime Minister(DPM), the first Malay female hold such high executive
power in the country but her capability is doubtful. She seems acted on behalf
of Anwar. What conflict of interest is their daughter, Nurul, was being
appointed as member of PAC (Public Accounting Committee) while Wan Aziza was
DPM. This give rise to the question whether her daughter would disclose her
wrong doing if discover some?
c.
Anwar unwillingness to disclose
how he may contribute to the country yet keep promise many fancy things to
aggrandizing himself is prima facie of putting his own personal interest before
the public that he has no genuine interest to serve people but merely crazy for
power.
Therefore,
I strongly oppose to give Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim any perks conversely
government should allow parliament open for debate freely whether is matter
relating to Pandora Paper or RU355 whilst the executive may instruct relevant authority
to investigate Malaysia public official in the Pandora Paper. I personally do
not favor Sharia law or any other religious law applicable side by side civil
law as this is eroding the secularity of Malaysia. Remember Malaysia is not
Allah's heaven, authority is not angels and we are not dead yet. More so, many
cases overlapping between Sharia and Civil court and victims suffer in limbo. There
are many others thing relating to Sabah& Sarawak sovereign and Constitution
which need all party including the British to talks and iron out what best for
the people of the three or four sovereign.
