| Posted: 03 Oct 2011 09:20 PM PDT Information, Communications and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Rais Yatim has made a dangerous statement with his false claim that at an official function he attended in the Penang, only Mandarin and English were spoken. Rais should not lie like Utusan Malaysia but prove which Penang state government official function he attended sidelined Bahasa Malaysia I suspect that the official function that Rais is referring to is a function in Han Chiang College in Penang where he was the guest of honour representing Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on 29 September 2011. I would like to remind Rais that Han Chiang College is a privately run college and the function was organised by Han Chiang and NOT by the state government. Instead Rais has chosen to unfairly blame the state government for a function that is organised by a private college. Making false allegations against the Penang state government is clearly intended to play the racist sentiment that Penang does not appreciate Bahasa Malaysia and not good for national unity. Rais had even urged the Malays in Penang to question this event. If Rais can prove which Penang state government official function attended by him did not use Bahasa Malaysia, the Penang state government will act to correct this mistake. However if he fails to show proof, then he should withdraw his remarks and apologise. Otherwise he would be exposed as a man without honour and even a racist for trying to use this lie to work up the sentiments of the Malays. The Penang state government wishes to express dismay at the systematic and serial attempts to undermine the Penang state government with lies and racist sentiments. Even though this is to be expected in the general elections season, raising the racial temperature is not only desperate but a highly irresponsible and reckless act that threatens the harmony and stability of our society. Even if BN wants to win the general elections, this victory should be with honour based on truth and not lies. I am surprised at the ferocity of BN's latest attacks against the Penang state government and me personally. I will not reply to Rais personal attacks against me. Rais attack follows the ludicrous report in the New Straits Times(NST) and Utusan Malaysia on 2.10.2011 that I may have disclosed national secrets to Singaporeans at a dinner and even questioned my loyalty to my country. I can not understand why my loyalty to Malaysia is questioned by the NST news report when I do not possess any Australian PR even though I graduated from Monash University. Shouldn't BN leaders who had Australian PR have their loyalty questioned by the NST news report? Datuk Seri Rais, the ball is in your court, what say you? —- mandarin translation ——- 槟州首席部长林冠英于2011年10月4日在吉隆坡发表声明： 拿督斯里莱士雅丁不应该像《马来西亚前锋报》那样说谎，他应该拿出证据，说明哪一项槟州政府官方活动边缘化马来文。 新闻、通讯和文化部长拿督斯里莱士雅丁发表了一篇危险的声明，他佯称自己出席的一项槟州官方活动全程只用华语和英语。莱士雅丁不应该学《马来西亚前锋报》那样说谎，他应该拿出证据，说明哪一项槟州政府官方活动边缘化马来文。 我怀疑莱士雅丁所指的活动是于2011年9月29日在槟城韩江学院举行的，他当时代表首相拿督斯里纳吉出席有关活动。我要提醒莱士雅丁，韩江学院是私立学院，有关活动的主办单位是韩江学院，不是州政府。 莱士雅丁宣称他是全场唯一使用国语及一点英语致词的人，这是不真实的。我也使用国语、英语和华语致词。为什么莱士雅丁不提我也用国语致词？如果莱士雅丁对韩江学院主办的活动感到不悦，为什么他不直接向韩江学院反映他的不满？为什么他不要求韩江解释？ 相反地，莱士雅丁选择了怪罪州政府，这是不公平的，因为这是私立学院办的活动。他对槟州政府做出这种虚假指责，很明显地是要玩弄种族情绪，指槟城不注重国文、对国民团结不利。莱士雅丁甚至要求槟州的马来人质疑这项活动。 如果莱士雅丁可以证明，他所出席的槟州政府官方活动没有使用国语，槟州政府会纠正我们的错误。但是，如果他无法证明，那么他应该撤回他的言论，马上道歉。否则，他就是一个言而无信的种族主义分子，企图利用这种谎言，煽动马来人的情绪。 对于这种有计划地、一系列的、企图利用谎言及种族情绪来破坏槟州政府的动作，我们感到厌恶。虽然我们已经预料他们在选举期间会这么做，但是，让种族情绪升温，简直是孤注一掷、不负责任地的举动，这将威胁我国社会的和谐及稳定。 就算国阵要赢得选举，也应该说实话才得赢得光彩，而不是用说谎这种下流的手段。 国阵最近针对槟州政府和我个人的攻击来势汹汹，让我感到惊讶。我不会回应莱士雅丁对我的人身攻击。莱士雅丁针对《新海峡时报》及《前锋报》于2011年10月2日一篇荒唐的报道对我人身攻击，有关报道说我在新加坡的一个晚宴上，泄露国家机密给新加坡人，甚至质疑我对国家的忠诚度。 我实在不明白，为什么《新海峡时报》 会质疑我的忠诚度，我虽然毕业自澳洲莫纳斯大学，但是我并没有澳洲的永久居留权。《新海峡时报》是不是应该首先质疑那些拥有澳洲永久居留权的国阵领袖？ 拿督莱士雅丁， 现在球在你那边，你怎么说？ 林冠英 |
