Is it Perkasa Or BN Running The Federal Government?

The Decision To Repudiate Joseph Entulu Belaun’s Decision To Drop The “Race” Column In Government Official Forms That Had No Value Added Raises Questions Whether It Is Perkasa Or BN That Is Running The Federal Government And Either Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak Or Ibrahim Ali The Real Malaysian Prime Minister?

The decision to repudiate Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Joseph Entulu Belaun’s decision to drop the “race” column in government official forms that had no value added raises, questions whether it is Perkasa or BN that is running the federal government and either Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak or Ibrahim Ali the real Malaysian Prime Minister? This follows Najib’s clarification that there had been no change in the government policy and Cabinet did not decide to do away with the ‘race’ column in government official forms.

Najib’s clarification came after Perkasa President Ibrahim Ali’s threat that it will take legal action in opposing the government’s decision to drop the “race” column from official forms.Najib even said he had been informed that Entulu would issue a statement of apology over the mistake.

Joseph Entulu meant well when he announced that the word “race” was removed from all official forms that did not add value in the country, such as in forms for the 1Malaysia People’s Aid (BR1M) and housing loan scheme forms for the low-income group. This would be a step forward towards creating a single national identity, where whether a person is poor or disabled, it matters not the colour of his or her skin.

After 57 years of Merdeka, the time has come to identify ourselves as Malaysian First and not be divided by race and religion. Unfortunately the language of racial hatred and religous extremism by organisations such as Perkasa has torn apart the social fabric of national unity. Such extremist and racist organisation have acquired such prominence that they can enjoy legal immunity for making inhumane and violent remarks against non-Muslims and non-Malays, but also influence government policy and Ministerial decision making.

Is Perkasa, despite never having won a single seat in the general elections actually running the Federal government, or Ibrahim Ali who lost his parliamentary seat of Pasir Mas in the last general elections, the real Prime Minister for Malaysia?

拒绝履行首相署部长左瑟夫恩都鲁决定删除政府官方表格中已经没有附加价值的种族栏目，让人产生很多疑问，到底联邦政府是由土权执政，还是国阵执政？到底纳吉是首相，还是土权阿里是首相？

拒绝履行首相署部长左瑟夫恩都鲁决定删除政府官方表格中已经没有附加价值的种族栏目，让人产生很多疑问，到底联邦政府是由土权执政，还是国阵执政？到底纳吉是首相，还是土权阿里是首相？纳吉已经澄清，联邦政府政策没改变，内阁未决定删除政府官方表格的种族栏目。

纳吉的澄清是随着土权主席依不拉欣阿里威胁将采取法律行动反对政府取消官方表格种族栏。纳吉甚至说已经通知恩都鲁针对这项错误发文告道歉。

左瑟夫恩都鲁当时宣布取消种族栏的时候，意思非常清楚明确地说“种族”这个对国家没有附加意义的字眼已经从官方表格中删除，这些表格包括1马人民援助表格及低收入群房屋贷款计划表格。这措举将更近一步地迈向创造一个国族身份的目标，并且将只会考虑人民贫穷与否、身障与否，而不是看他或她的肤色。

独立57年之后，我们已经来到界定自己为“马来西亚人”的时候，并以这身份为优先，不能再被种族、宗教区隔开来。不幸的是，一些种族与宗教极端份子诸如土权，却常散播种族间的仇恨来撕裂我们的社会，阻止国家的大融合。这些种族极端主义的团体，自命不凡，彷佛不需为法律负责。他们多番对非穆斯林及非巫裔出言不逊，使出各种不人道与暴力的举止，并且影响政府及各机关的决策。

请问，现在我国执政的，是那个从未在大马普选中赢获任何席位的土权组织吗？还是那在竞选中输掉巴西马国会议席的伊布拉欣才是大马真正的首相？
