Pelatih Program Latihan Khidmat Negara (PLKN) di seluruh negara perlu
mematuhi syarat yang akan ditetapkan apabila mereka dibenar aktif
berpolitik dalam kem, mulai tahun depan.
Ketua Pengarah Jabatan
Latihan Khidmat Negara (JLKN) Datuk Abdul Hadi Awang Kechil berkata
kepatuhan syarat itu penting bagi menjaga keharmonian mereka dan
menjunjung kedaulatan negara.
"Kebenaran pelatih aktif berpolitik
itu menunjukkan perkembangan terbaharu dan terbaik dalam mengembangkan
ilmu kepolitikan dalam kem PLKN, tetapi ia perlu akur kepada peraturan
ditetapkan.
"Kita mahu setiap pelatih ada kehormatan di samping
memilih pemimpin di kalangan mereka yang ada kebijaksanaannya," katanya
kepada pemberita selepas majlis Ramah Mesra dengan pelatih PLKN di Kem
Etnobotani di Gua Musang, hari ini.
Beliau berkata demikian
ketika mengulas kenyataan Pengerusi Majlis Latihan Khidmat Negara, Datuk
Dr Tiki Lafe semalam yang mengumumkan pelatih di semua kem PLKN akan
dibenar aktif berpolitik sepanjang menjalani latihan tiga bulan itu,
mulai 2013.
Abdul Hadi berkata kempen politik itu hanya
membabitkan kawasan dalam kem bagi mereka memilih pemimpin, sebagaimana
yang dilakukan penuntut universiti.

PAS: Biar masyarakat nilai kenyataan Nurul Izzah
Ketua Dewan Ulama PAS Datuk Harun Taib menyerahkan kepada masyarakat
umum untuk menilai kenyataan Nurul Izzah Anwar berhubung isu kebebasan
memilih agama di kalangan orang Melayu dan juga sama ada naib presiden
PKR itu perlu memohon maaf atas kenyataan tersebut.
"Kalau
dia (Nurul Izzah) rasa bersalah, dia kena tarik balik kenyataannya itu.
Tapi kalau dia rasa tak bersalah, itu hak dia kalau dia tak mahu tarik
balik," katanya seperti dipetik akhbar Utusan Malaysia hari ini.
"Saya percaya rakyat sudah tahu menilai," kata Harun yang enggan mengulas panjang lebar kerana tidak mahu campur tangan dalam isu tersebut, menurut akhbar milik Umno itu lagi.
Turut mengulas perkara itu ialah ahli majlis syura PAS Datuk Dr Mahfodz Mohamed yang berkata kebebasan beragama tidak tertakluk ke atas orang Islam Melayu dan bukannya seperti yang didakwa dinyatakan Nurul Izzah.
Menurut akhbar New Straits Times, beliau berkata, ayat dalam al-Quran yang menyatakan "tiada paksaan dalam beragama" itu hanya terpakai ke atas orang bukan Islam.
Pandangannya itu selari dengan kenyataan bekas timbalan presiden PAS Nasharudin Mat Isa semalam, bahawa kenyataan kontroversi MP Lembah Pantai tersebut bermaksud bagi "memberi kebebasan kepada orang Melayu memilih agama atas prinsip kebebasan manusia".
Nurul Izzah pada 3 November lalu antara lainnya dilaporkan berkata, Rakyat tidak seharusnya dipaksa menganut agama tertentu dan perkara ini juga patut terpakai kepada orang Melayu.

Jarumemas: Berkata benarlah walaupun pahit. Sudah pasti rakyat akan buat penilaian, tetapi sebagai seorang ualam dalam Pas sewajarnya YB mempertahankan agama Islam bukan mengikut telunjuk sesiapa kerana mahukan populariti.

Abdul Rahim: Malaysia does not need revolution
KOTA KINABALU, Nov 12 ― Changes should not be made through revolution
for it may create chaos and disrupt political stability, said Deputy
Transport Minister Datuk Abdul Rahim Bakri.
He said moreover, the transformation programmes pursued by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak had been successful and acknowledged by the people.
The people should appreciate this and evaluate the integrity of the opposition, Abdul Rahim told reporters here today.
He said the opposition was facing an identity disorder for its direction and goals had somewhat becoming blurred.
“The perpetrators should not put the fate and future of the people at stake to achieve their goal of overthrowing the government through a revolution.
“The people should consider the consequences and implications of a revolution rationally for it will be too late to regret later,” he said.
Abdul Rahim said the success of the Barisan Nasional government in creating stability and a lasting peace since independence had enabled the country to be among the prosperous third world countries. ― Bernama

Freedom of religion only for non-Muslims: Masing
(Borneo Post) - Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) viewed the recent
statement by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) vice-president Nurul Izzah
Anwar as nothing else but an attempt to gain popularity among the
people.
The party president Tan Sri Dr James Masing said he had always been given to understand that freedom of religion in Malaysia was only applicable to non-Muslims.
“Therefore, I am surprised when she (Nurul) said that religious freedom in Malaysia is inclusive,” he quipped.
Masing, who is Land Development Minister, said the statement by the Lembah Pantai MP also shows that PKR was a populist party with no fixed agenda to administer the country.
He stated this when commenting on Nurul’s statement that irked many Muslims, including the Sultan of Selangor, Islamic scholars and some BN leaders.
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassan has described the statement as unwarranted especially when it comes from a fellow Muslim.
Nurul was in the limelight after expressing her view on religious freedom by suggesting that Muslims should be allowed to follow any religion of their choice.
Her father Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who is the opposition de facto leader, in defending his daughter claimed that Nurul’s statement was not only misinterpreted but also manipulated.

SIS: Recognise freedom to change faith
The Islamic NGO condemns the attacks on
PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar, and points out that faith by
compulsion may lead to hypocrisy.
Leven Woon, FMT
Freedom of religion as a right enshrined under the Federal Constitution must also recognise the freedom to change faith, said Sisters In Islam (SIS).
Rallying behind PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar’s call for freedom of religion for all, the NGO said faith in any religion was based on free will.
“How can Muslims demand this notion of religious freedom for those wishing to convert to Islam and at the same time argue the denial of this freedom to leave Islam?
“Faith by compulsion may lead to hypocrisy,” SIS said in a statement.
The Muslim women rights advocate maintained a strong position against legislation of faith, saying that such practice was meaningless.
“Islam itself means submission to the will of God – not the will of men. The willing submission of the self to faith and belief must therefore be attained through conviction and reason of the individual, not by coercion and duress.
“This is clearly mentioned in the Quran, Surah Yunus 10:99, ‘And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed – all of them entirely. Then would you compel the people in order that they become believers?’,” SIS added.
The organisation also condemned the attacks against Nurul over the latter’s remark made during a forum last week, pointing out that it reflected the shrinking of democratic space for civil public discussion.
It noted that Malaysians were routinely reprimanded or attacked for raising issues pertaining to freedom of religion even though the right was enshrined in Article 11 of Federal Constitution.
It said problems and conflicts would always arise in a multi-religious society like Malaysia, such as non-Muslims who convert to Islam without resolving their duties to their earlier non-Muslim marriage and born-Muslims who never led a Muslim life as they were raised by non-Muslim families.
There are also cases where one converts spouses to Islam unilaterally and coercively and born-Muslims who wish to leave Islam out of their free will.

Hindraf doubts Najib’s sincerity
(FMT) -- Hindraf has cast aspersions on the sincerity of Prime
Minister Najib Tun Razak’s invitation to hold a discussion. The
premier’s courtship, said Hindraf chairman P Waythamoorthy, had not
left the movement flushed with excitement as it could be related to the
coming general election.
“We are not exactly excited about this invitation but we have decided to give him the benefit of doubt,” he told reporters here.
He said the invitation had come late on the part of the government since the Indian poor had been marginalised for decades.
Waythamoorthy also urged Najib to lift the ban on Hindraf imposed by his predecessor Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s administration.
“It does not make sense for the prime minister to meet leaders of a banned organisation.
“There is no timeline on when it should be lifted but of course we would like for the ban to be lifted as soon as possible,” he added.
Hindraf had become a foul word during Abdullah’s tenure after the movement staged a massive street protest in 2007, which was seen as the catalyst for the following year’s political tsunami.
Meanwhile, Waythamoorthy also called on Najib to shed his “current box of thinking” in order to facilitate meaningful discussions between them.
