Sikap Pemimpin BN/PBB menganggap pandangan orang lain sebagai bodoh amat dikesali
Merujuk kepada
kenyataan dua orang pemimpin BN dalam Borneo Post yang tidak bersetuju
pemasangan CCTV di pusat-pusat pengundian dalam Pilihan Raya Umum ke13
sebagai tidak praktikal dan sama seperti pemutus fitnah pada kredibiliti
Jawatankuasa Pilihan Raya (SPR) sebagai pandangan mereka yang tidak
mahu menerima pembaharuan.
Itu adalah pandangan peribadi mereka yang tidak bersetuju dan bukannya mewakili pandangan orang ramai atau rakyat. Bukan
tugas mereka untuk menerima atau menolak cadangan mana-mana pihak untuk
menambahbaik cara proses pengundian di negara ini. Tugas ini hanya
dijalankan oleh pihak SPR bukan tugas pemimpin BN.
Cara dan sikap
pemimpin BN yang menolak cadangan pihak pembangkang untuk menambahbaik
sistem pengundian di negara ini jelas menunjukkan mereka sukar untuk
menerima pembaharuan atau tranformasi yang dilaung-laungkan oleh Perdana
Menteri. Sikap serta tingkah-laku cara mereka membalas pandangan orang
lain sambil menganggap pandangan orang lain sebagai cadangan yang bodoh
dan tidak munasabah adalah amat dikesali.
Ini jelas
menunjukkan sikap mereka yang sombong dan tidak professional apabila
menerima pandangan orang lain sekalipun orang yang memberi pandangan
tersebut tidak sealiran dengan pandangan mereka. Biarkan pihak SPR
sendiri yang mengkaji sama ada ianya sesuai atau tidak untuk menerima
atau menolak pandangan seseorang bukannya pemimpin PBB/BN.
Tiada alasan untuk
pihak pembangkang takut atau tidak percaya dengan kredibiliti
Jawatankuasa Pilihan Raya (SPR) seperti didakwa oleh pemimpin BN, yang
takut adalah dari pihak BN sendiri sebab mereka tidak mahu ketelusan
berlaku dalam sistem pengundian dalam negara ini. Sekalipun pemimpin
PBB/BN menolak cadangan pembaharuan dalam proses pengundian, apa yang
penting adalah kepentingan rakyat perlu diberi perhatian dan keutamaan.
Kita mengesa pihak SPR teruskan bekerja dengan secara professional dan
bebas tanpa perlu takut dengan serta ugutan pihak tertentu yang tidak
suka menerima perubahan. Harap pihak SPR dapat menerima candangan
seseorang dengan sikap terbuka tanpa mengira fahaman politik.

The attitude of BN/PBB leaders assume the views of others as silly is much regretted
Referring to the
statement of two BN leaders in the Borneo Post that do not agree the
installation of CCTV at polling stations in the 13th General Election as
impractical and as casting aspersion on the credibility of the Election
Committee (EC) as the views of those who do not want to accept the
reforms.
That is the view
of those who do not agree and not represent the views of the public or
people. Not their job to accept or reject any proposal to improve the
way the voting process in this country. This task is carried out by the
EC is not a task of BN leaders.
The behavior and
the attitude of the BN leaders who reject the opposition's suggestion to
improve the electoral system in this country clearly shows that they
are difficult to accept reform or transformation that proclaimed by the
Prime Minister. The attitude and the behavior of their way respond the
views of others while assume the views of others as a stupid suggestion
and unreasonable is deplorable.
This clearly shows
the attitude that they are arrogant and unprofessional when accept the
views of others, even those who give are not aligned with their views. Let the EC that study whether it is appropriate or not to accept or reject the view rather than the PBB/BN leader.
There is no excuse
for the opposition fear or do not believe in the credibility of the
Election Committee (EC) as claimed by the BN leaders, the fear is from
the BN because they do not want transparency in the system of voting in
this country. Even though PBB/BN leaders rejects the proposed of renewal
which the important thing is interest is the people should be given
attention and priority. Even
though PBB/BN leader’s rejects suggestion the reform of the electoral
process, what is important is the interest of the people should be given
the attention and priority.
We urge the EC to
continue working with a professional and independent manner without
having to fear and intimidation by certain quarters who do not like
change. Hope the EC will accept suggestions with an open manner
irrespective of political affiliation.
Yours faithfully

Article from Borneo post
‘Opposition call for CCTVs at polling centres impractical’
by Peter Boon reporters@theborneopost.com. Posted on March 26, 2013, Tuesday
SIBU:
The opposition’s call for the installation of CCTV at polling centres
in the 13th General Election is impractical and tantamount to casting
aspersion on the credibility of Election Committee (EC).
State
BN secretary-general Datuk Dr Stephen Rundi said yesterday it only
reflected the opposition was desperate and might resort to anything to
win the election.
He
was reacting to PAS Miri chief Jofri Jaraiee’s call for use of more
sophisticated device to monitor the voting process, saying CCTV would
prevent cheating and abuse during the voting process.
“In BN, that is never an issue because we are confident of EC handling the election process.
“The
fact that some states were won by the opposition in the 12th General
Election, how is it possible if there was any element of cheating or
bias by EC,” Dr Rundi, who is also PBB secretary-general and Assistant
Minister of Public Utilities (Electricity and Telecommunications), said.
PBB
supreme council member Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah regarded the
opposition’s suggestion at the eleventh hour for CCTV at polling centres
and checking at movement of ballot boxes as downright silly and
illogical. “How
ridiculous this suggestion could be if we are to see how many thousands
of polling centres there are all throughout the country.
“What the opposition need to do now is to learn have faith in the professionalism of EC in handling the election.
“They should not keep on undermining the credibility of EC.
“This is the same EC that conducted the election in 2008 where the opposition won many seats and even few states.
Abdul
Karim, who is Asajaya assemblyman and Assistant Minister of Youth
Development, recalled some months back, the parliament set up a ‘reform
committee’ to look at proposed changes to Election Laws for this
forthcoming election.
The committee, he said, comprised of BN and opposition members and public was allowed to meet and propose their views.
“Pursuant
to this committee set up and its findings, new positive changes were
adopted among others, the use of the ink and acceptance of overseas
voters.”
To the opposition, he said: “So, don’t give stupid and unreasonable suggestion…unless they are out to get some cheap publicity.”
