Anwar ditahan reman

Belum pasti utk berapa lama…

Rakyat menemani beliau di luar Ibu Pejabat Kontinjen Polis Kuala Lumpur.

Di Parlimen hari ini, seorang lelaki menangis setelah menerima berita penangkapan Anwar. Di wajah setiap yang dikenali menunjukkan wajah yang tiada seri; muram, tapi tetap melaksanakan apa yang patut.

Saya sendiri yang sedang bersiap untuk menghadiri makan tengahari bersama beberapa tetamu telah tiba-tiba hilang selera.

Puan Fuziah Salleh dengan teman-teman Ahli parlimen telah serta-merta ke IPK untuk mengetahui dengan lebih dekat keadaan Anwar.

Sebenarnya, penangkapan Anwar telah dijangkakan – hanya apabila ia berlaku, seperti masih tidak percaya. Alangkah buruknya cara tangkapan Anwar tengahari tadi.

Bilakah akan berakhir segala kepandiran ini? Dan berhentinya wenangan mereka yang berkuasa?

Hanya masa akan menentukannya. Sehingga itu, perjuangan ini belum selesai.

Jika patah tumbuh, jika hilang diganti ribuan yang lain.

Membujur lalu melintang patah.

Lawan, tetap lawan.

Rozaini.

Anwar Ibrahim: Kenyataan Media

 

	—- PRESS STATEMENT – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — KUALA LUMPUR, July 16, 2008 3:30 PM   This afternoon at 1:05 PM Anwar Ibrahim, former Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia, was arrested outside of his home in Kuala Lumpur. He was due to issue a statement at IPK KL (Kuala Lumpur Police Contingent Headquarters) at 2:00 PM based on an agreement reached with the police on Tuesday. Anwar Ibrahim was returning from the Anti Corruption Agency to his home after giving a statement pertaining to the police report that has been filed regarding suppression of material facts in the case involving him in 1998.  He was accompanied by his senior legal team, staff, and security. As he entered the neighborhood of his home, a contingent of ten police cars, half unmarked and half patrol, forced the two cars in Anwar Ibrahim’s entourage to stop.  There was a contingent of 20 balaklava-clad masked commandos (UTK) who accosted him, reminiscent of the forces sent to arrest Anwar Ibrahim at his home in September 1998. An officer approached Anwar Ibrahim and demanded that he accompany the police in an unmarked vehicle to the Kuala Lumpur Police Contingent Headquarters. His lawyers were not permitted to travel with him to the police station. This arrest has taken place less than fifteen hours after Anwar Ibrahim appeared live on Malaysian television for the first time since 1998, and announced to millions of viewers his intention to stand for election, and upon the formation of a new government, to lower the domestic price of fuel by 50 sen.  The overwhelming majority of Malaysians expressed their support of his televised statement. These events are deeply disturbing to us and indicate that this entire episode is a repeat of the actions taken against Anwar Ibrahim in 1998.   During the last few weeks the government owned mainstream media has demonized and vilified him.  His staff has been harassed and we see a conspiracy being hatched to thwart the political change that is imminent in Malaysia. Under no circumstances will the people of Malaysia and the international community tolerate any harm coming to Anwar Ibrahim. We remind Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi of the promise he made to ensure Anwar Ibrahim’s protection. We have been able to communicate with Anwar Ibrahim, who calls upon his supporters and the people of Malaysia to remain calm and to reject any attempts at provocation, which will give a pretext for an emergency situation to be declared.     OFFICE OF ANWAR IBRAHIM CONTACT PRESS@AICASSOCIATES.COM

Jul 16, 08 12:40pm

Opposition stalwart Anwar Ibrahim is the winner of yesterday’s on the fuel price hike, according to a poll conducted by Malaysiakini. The 12-hour poll which went live immediately after the debate ended at 10pm revealed that almost 96 percent of Malaysiakini readers believed that Anwar did far better than Information Minister Ahmad Shabery Cheek. (see chart below) A total of 18,684 readers had participated in the poll, of which 17,240 or 95 percent said Anwar was more convincing in his arguments. Interestingly, while Anwar was seen as the clear winner in the debate, a majority of readers (57 percent) said he had the most rehearsed answers. Shabery appeared to win in that department for apparently referring less on his prepared notes. However, 90 percent of readers believed that the information minister had avoided most of the questions put by the moderator and two other panelists. And when it comes to how the two debaters fared on a scale of 1 to 10, Anwar appeared to have outclassed Shabery. The hour-long debate was the first time that a government minister was pitted against an opposition leader live on television. live TV debate

It was so clear that Anwar was speaking like a PM, with substance, precise and professional. Shabery was no match at all, nothing new in his arguments and looked like someone very desparate grasping for straws as he could not rebut Anwar’s argument and had to resort to personal attacks.

The question of who wins who lose does not arise.

However, now we know exactly what Anwar will do if he takes over the gomen. As for Ahmad Sabery,being a Minister he cannot do much but got to defend the gomen whatever it takes. What upset me,is the personal attack embark by Sabery in the course of his arguement.

cheers.

Anwar! stop debating with kids. Orang tanya Utara dia jawab Selatan. Anyway it was pleasure to hear our future PM speak and indeed a relief to have identified that we actually have clowns in the August House.

My opinion is that Shaberry touches more on ‘historical’ happenings and to some extent made personal attacks on anwar which may be perceived as his inability to provide relavant answers to some of the questions.

Bravo Anuar,
Cool as ice – when personal attack.

Shabery – small boy still learning how to talk.
Shabery gang – The Tan Sri – shaky question like he have no confident – product of rusty mind.

Anwar gang – as confident as Anwar.
Winner – ANWAR IBRAHIM.

Shabery delving into the past to make cheap personal attacks on Anwar is unbecoming. He even goes back to 1974 Baling demo – how low can you go? Just keep to the issue, s…!
