BUKIT LANJAN: Use the ‘feel good’ festivities to strengthen national unity


 BUKIT LANJAN: Use the ‘feel good’ festivities to strengthen national unity


Malaysians and corporates are urged to use the “good feel” during festivities to help forge unity among communities.

This will not only consolidate or strengthen national unity, it will also make Malaysia a peaceful and harmonious multi-racial multi-religious nation.

“Such a stable, peaceful and ideal country will surely attract more investors, both local and foreign,” Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said.

“Be it Hari Raya Aidil Fitri, Chinese New Year, Deepavali or Christmas, we must all respect one another and celebrate together as one or Malaysians.

“Race must not be allowed to sow seeds of discord among communities. Race must not be allowed to divide Malaysians,” he said, reiterating that religious bigots and racists should have no place in the country.


Syed Razak, who is Gerakan’s nominee to contest N.37 Bukit Lanjan in the coming 14th General Election (GE14), said “religious bigots and racists” are now a minority.

“But we must not take their antics and threats to national unity lightly. Malaysians must all help promote communal and national unity to ensure Malaysia’s future.

“This we can do by organising and participating in programmes and activities that bring Malaysians together,” he said at a Bazaar Ramadhan in Taman Metropolitan Kepong (off MRR2) on June 22, 2017. Gerakan president and Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Mah Siew Keong and Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory Gerakan chairman Lau Hoi Keong were also present where vouchers were distributed to the rakyat (people) to buy goodies from some 90 stalls.

Syed Razak said Malaysians must remain vigilant and wary of the threats posed by religious bigots and racists.

“Do not let them grow in numbers or Malaysia will be finished,” he added.

    Yes indeed. We must take great leaps forward to weed out religious bigots and extremists at every nook and cranny.

    The simply do not belong in our society or any other society for that matter.

    More unity based projects and programmes must be organised to inculcate more streaming of understanding. The way forward is Unity and Understanding.

    These absecess of disunity must be mitigated likened to pulling out a rooted rooten tooth.

    It will grossly undermine society. Also the media should stop giving publicity to bigots who sow discord.

CreditKristian Helgesen/Bloomberg, via Getty Images Norway’s Wealth Fund Considers Divesting From Oil Shares By  CLIFFORD KRAUSS NOV. 16, 2017 Norway’s $1 trillion sovereign wealth fund is considering a divestment of holdings in international petroleum companies, a sign that even Europe’s dominant producer does not have full confidence in oil’s future. The recommendation on Thursday by the Norwegian Central Bank, which manages the fund, is potentially the biggest advance yet for a global fossil-fuel divestment campaign that has been promoted on college campuses and by environmental activists. It could also be a setback for the proposed initial public offering of the Saudi national oil company, known as Aramco, since the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund, the world’s largest, would be a potentiall...

BUKIT LANJAN: DOSH and all related construction authorities must buck up

BUKIT LANJAN: DOSH and all related construction authorities must buck up It is quite obvious that something is not very right with the way the Department of Occupational Health and Safety (DOSH) and all related construction authorities are monitoring work safety at construction sites. There have been quite a number of tragic and non-tragic incidents at construction sites recently and yet accidents continue to recur despite DOSH’s claims that it has set up safety committees to tighten inspections. Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said: “There was the woman who was crushed to death by a crane hook that fell on her Perodua Kelisa from 20 storeys up. “This was followed by the collapse of the KL Eco City pedestrian bridge that claimed a life. And now a crane has collapsed at the Bandar Damansara Perdana (BDP) construction site.” Syed Razak said such tragic and non-tragic mishaps at construction would not occur or could have been avoided if high and competent constr...
