Does DAP plan to block the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package?
So that is the real issue. DAP wants to debate the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package. But what is there to debate? Does DAP want it approved or does DAP want it rejected? If DAP wants it rejected then just stand up and say so. You can do that in just one day. You do not need 30 days to debate that just to block the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
DAP says prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin is scared of holding the parliament session for longer than just one day.
That raises a very interesting question. What is Muhyiddin scared of? Is he scared of a vote of no confidence?
Anwar Ibrahim has already promised there will be no vote of no confidence against Muhyiddin. There are no plans for a vote of no confidence, said Anwar. Anyway, even if there is an attempt to table a vote of no confidence, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said he feels it will not succeed because Muhyiddin has the support of the majority. PPBM insiders say Muhyiddin has at least 135 MPs with him.
So, what is Muhyiddin supposed to be scared of, as alleged by DAP?
Anwar had a 45-minute meeting with Muhyiddin and announced there will be no vote of no confidence in parliament on 18th May 2020
DAP says “backdoor” prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin did not get the “backdoor” RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package approved by parliament. Hence, the “backdoor” RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package is illegal and the money being spent is unlawful. And that, says DAP, is also what Muhyiddin is scared of.
(What is this Pakatan Harapan fetish and obsession with “backdoors”?)
Okay, so Muhyiddin’s RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package is illegal because it was not approved by parliament and hence the money being spent is unlawful. And that is why Muhyiddin wants parliament to meet for only one day on 18th May 2020.
Well, in that case, can’t parliament approve the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package on 18th May 2020 to make it legal and so that the money being spent is lawful? Why should Muhyiddin be worried about it, as alleged by DAP?
Blocking the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package dan bring down the government and allow DAP to get back in power
Or is it that DAP pans to block the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package? Can DAP get at least 112 members of parliament to support them to block the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package so that the government can no longer spend any money?
If that is what DAP is planning then, as they say, Muhyiddin should be scared of holding a parliament session for more than one day. Having a longer parliament session, say 30 days, gives more time for DAP to work on blocking the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package.
Let’s say the parliament session is held for 30 days and in those 30 days DAP succeeds in blocking the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package. What happens next? First of all, the government has to stop spending money, especially on the Chinese-dominated SMEs or SMIs.
Millions of Malaysians will immediately run out of money and starvation will become a more serious problem than the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic.
By the time one million Malaysians are dead, the Perikatan Nasional government will fall and Muhyiddin will be ousted. Pakatan Harapan will take over as the new government with Anwar Ibrahim as the new prime minister or PM9.
No wonder, as DAP says, Muhyiddin is scared of holding the parliament session for more than one day. Not only will the 222 members of parliament get infected with the Covid-19 coronavirus and Malaysia will see about 150 by-elections all over Malaysia because of the high number of deaths, but Pakatan Harapan will be able to bring down the Perikatan Nasional government and replace Muhyiddin with Anwar as PM9.
Jahat sungguh Muhyiddin ni.
It is a “pintu belakang” RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package, says Teresa Kok
“Muhyiddin penakut, kata Teresa Kok,” was the headlines by Cempedak Cheese.
“Kerajaan Perikatan Nasional tidak memiliki asas yang sah untuk mengehadkan sesi parlimen hanya satu hari kerana walaupun terdapat perintah kawalan berikutan pandemik Covid-19, akhir-akhir ini kita melihat banyak negara demokrasi, seperti United Kingdom dan Amerika Syarikat mengadakan sesi parlimen biasa,” Teresa was reported to have said.
“Kerajaan sedang berusaha menghalang dan melemahkan peranan Parlimen yang sah dan konsep pemisahan kuasa, dalam menghalang perbahasan mengenai pakej rangsangan.”
“Kerajaan secara terang-terangan berusaha meranapkan melalui pakej rangsangan ekonomi sebanyak RM250 bilion (bersamaan dengan anggaran bajet setahun Malaysia), melalui “pintu belakang”, tanpa meminta persetujuan yang sewajarnya dari parlimen.”
So that is the real issue. DAP wants to debate the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package. But what is there to debate? Does DAP want it approved or does DAP want it rejected? If DAP wants it rejected then just stand up and say so. You can do that in just one day. You do not need 30 days to debate that just to block the RM250 billion Covid-19 stimulus package.
