#PulangKeLangkawi untuk pusingan akhir berkempen sempena Pilihanraya Umum ke-15.

Saya gembira setiap kali dapat bertemu dengan penduduk Langkawi apabila pulang ke sini.
Ramai yang bertanya berkenaan perkembangan politik semasa. Ada juga yang menyatakan penghargaan atas pencapaian Langkawi dan meluahkan harapan mereka di masa akan datang.
Langkawi terus dekat di hati saya seperti kali pertama saya berkhidmat di sini sebagai Medical Officer pada tahun 1956.
Langkawi ini telah kita bangunkan dari tiada apa kepada apa yang dapat kita lihat hari ini. Usaha ini tidak akan terhenti selagi kita ada upaya. InsyaAllah, Langkawi akan terus gemilang dalam industri pelancongan yang menjadi sumber rezeki penduduk di sini.

UGUTAN
 
1. Saya dapati ramai orang kenamaan Melayu berada dalam ketakutan.

2. Mereka tidak senang dengan prestasi Kerajaan sekarang. Banyaklah sebab-sebab yang mereka berpendapat Kerajaan sekarang tidak baik. Mereka menyatakan ini apabila ditemui.
3. Tetapi mereka enggan menyertai sebarang gerakan yang memiliki pendapat yang sama dengan mereka.

4. Sebabnya kerana mereka takut jika mereka dikenal pasti oleh Kerajaan tindakan akan diambil terhadap mereka.
5. Ada yang takut jawatan mereka ditukar kepada jawatan lebih rendah, atau dilucut terus.

6. Ada yang takut kontrak mereka ditarik balik atau diganggu.

A SHOPPING COMPLEX

1. I visited one of the newest shopping complexes in Kuala Lumpur.

2. I was impressed.

3. It is not a shopping complex.
4. It is a town, a fully air-conditioned town protected from the sun and rain.

5. There are streets lined with brand named shops, with products displayed beautifully.

6. There are restaurants and supermarkets.
7. Outside more streets, paved, lined by beautifully designed shops.

8. Then there are high rise condos.

9. It is a fantastic development and must have cost billions.

10. I toured the shopping area on a buggy. Too long to walk.

During my stay in London, I met many Malaysians who are either studying, working or living here. I explained to them the problem faced in Malaysia, where the Malays have now lost not only their economic performance but also they have lost their political power. They are now a… https://t.co/jhsfp13PPxtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…


Of course, some of them felt that it is not fair to discriminate against non-Malays. They believe that if the Malays are not given these crutches, they would then be able to fight for themselves. I have my doubts they can do that. Not now anyway. Maybe in the future, when they… https://t.co/UEfT4la7q4twitter.com/i/web/status/1…


These are the things I had to remind them because these Malays and even Chinese must understand that to have a very big disparity between the rich Chinese and the poor Malays is dangerous for Malaysia because it may lead to conflicts and violence. So what we are trying to do is… https://t.co/S9sDulyTAEtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

TANAH MELAYU
 
1. Jika kita teliti sejarah orang Melayu, kita terpaksa akui bahawa sepanjang zaman tanah air orang Melayu merosot kawasannya.
2. Demikian apabila British mengada perjanjian dengan Siam di Bangkok pada tahun 1909, empat buah negeri Melayu, iaitu Patani, Singgora, Menara dan Yala di selatan Siam, diserah kepada Siam.
3. Pihak British mendakwa bahawa Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan dan Terengganu diletak di bawah naungan British.

PULAU PINANG
 
1. I do not want to be involved in the controversy over Penang. But suggesting that Sanusi, the MB of Kedah is committing a crime for giving his views of the history of that island is too much.
2. Historically the Sultan of Kedah agreed for the British East India Company to take over the island on payment of 6000 Spanish dollars a year. Later a strip of the mainland opposite was added for 4000 Spanish dollars a year.
3. In addition the agreement required the British company to help in the defence of Kedah if attacked by foreign countries. We know that the British failed to honour their words.

I would like to thank Mr. Shin Nakayama, the Editor-in-Chief of Nikkei Asia and Nikkei Inc., for hosting me yet again at a dialogue session in conjunction with the Nikkei Forum for Asia. Image
I have always enjoyed attending this forum and participating in the dialogue session, which is termed, Firechat.

This prestigious event has been close to my heart since its inception in 1995, and it truly marked a remarkable end to my visit to Tokyo, Japan. Image
Throughout the forum, we discussed many issues and I was asked about my opinion as to which side should we focus on between China, United States of America, or Russia. Image
