Printed by SWAN Printing Sdn Bhd Lot 5429, Jalan BS7/1, Kawasan Perindustrian Bukit Serdang, 43300 Seri Kembangan, Selangor. 2 Up Close & Personal with National President Sdr Mah Siew Keong 1) After 1 year as National President of PGRM, how do you see yourself and the party? One year as the National President of PGRM, we have galvanized and reorganized the party as was promised when I contested for the seat. We have also beefed up SEDAR Institute and submitted various memorandums to ministers pertaining national issues. All bureaus were also monitored to be more active in serving the people, particularly the SME Bureau that had helped out a lot of party members and general public. One amendment I made to the Party Constitution was the limitation of presidential terms to 3 terms to extend my contribution to the party. In addition, we have also opened our membership in Gerakan Youth to females below 35, which made females below 35 having dual membership in Gerakan Youth and Gerakan Wanita. 2)You won the Teluk Intan By-Election and made a political comeback, how do you feel? Teluk Intan by-election was one of the toughest by-elections I ever fought because of my current position as the party President. Through the unity between party members and BN component parties, we managed to pull through it, which I owed my gratefulness to. I would like to thank the Prime Minister (PM) for appointing me as a Minister in the PM’s Department, which served as a challenge for me as I have to handle both my minister and Teluk Intan MP posts simultaneously. Lastly, I appreciate having worked together with all Gerakan leaders through the by-election as a team. 3) After the by-election, the members are truly Satu Hati to support you. How do you ensure the spirit remains for them to work towards the moderation always mentioned by you? Party’s ideology and vision are very important. We cannot deny that many people out there are making negative statements that are detrimental to the nation. If racism is allowed to expand, it will undermine the basis of the country as we have a multi-racial and multi-religious society. Hence, moderation and unity are what we need and Gerakan has been striving hard to ensure that the country follows the path towards 1Malaysia. This is also why our slogan for this year’s National Delegates Conference (NDC) is “Stand Up for 1Malaysia”. We must also make sure that the spirit of 1Malaysia endures after many feel that the movement has slowed down for the past one year. 4) What are your expectation for party 5) As a president, what do you think are the leaders and members to achieve under the challenges the party is currently facing? theme? I think Gerakan must stand up and be more vocal. Gerakan members are knowledgeable and united There are many problems out there affecting the under the party. We must give open support to country, so we must be a part of the solutions instead leaders who support 1Malaysia and criticize any of problems. We must come out with ideas and who tries to damage the country. Even if it comes solutions and put them into real actions. We must within BN, we must be brave to voice out and stand also focus on issues that will affect the country and behind the PM to support his call for moderation. minimize internal problems. Only through working As for the grassroots, we could mix around with together can Gerakan remain relevant and gain the people regardless of their races and religions to people respect with a great future ahead. show our commitment and ideals. 力挺一个马来西亚 3 PGRM NDC-43 PGRM NDC 2014 - Theme Launching Pelancaran Tema Persidangan Perwakilan Nasional PGRM 2014 “Menjulang 1Malaysia” etiausaha Agung Parti Gerakan “Pentadbiran negara dan haluan masa persidangan kali ini adalah mendebat Rakyat Malaysia, YB Liang Teck depan sosio-politik negara mesti dan meluluskan usul pindaan Meng mengumumkan bahawa terus kekal di haluan tengah yang Perlembagaan Parti dimana tempoh S berlandaskan kepada kesederhanaan tema Persidangan Perwakilan Nasional Presiden Nasional dan Pengerusi Negeri tahun ini ialah “Menjulang 1Malaysia”. dan keterangkuman sebagaimana dihadkan kepada 3 penggal.

Timbalan Presiden, Cheah Soon Hai berkata, sejak negara mencapai kemerdekaan 57 tahun lalu, Perlembagaan Malaysia melindungi hak asasi rakyat di negara ini seperi kebebasan beragama dan tiada diskriminasi antara kaum. Katanya, ia ditambah pula dengan adanya konsep 1Malaysia, yang mana konsep berkenaan telah membuatkan rakyat pelbagai kaum dan bangsa di negara ini bersatu serta perpaduannya semakin kukuh. “Perlembagaan dan konsep 1Malaysia melarang diskriminasi antara kaum serta bantuan diberikan kepada golongan kurang berkemampuan dan belia tanpa mengira bangsa dan agama. “Ia menunjukkan kerajaan memberi bantuan kepada sesiapa sahaja yang memerlukan dan dengan ini juga akan menguatkan perpaduan seluruh rakyat Malaysia. “Sebab itu Gerakan mengharapkan konsep 1Malaysia dapat diteruskan dan Perlembagaan Malaysia dihormati dan rakyat tidak perlu mengubahnya,” katanya semasa Persidangan Perwakilan Parti Gerakan Negeri Johor. Menurutnya, sejak kebelakangan ini, konsep 1Malaysia semakin kurang digunakan. Katanya, begitu juga dengan Perlembagaan Malaysia, ada pihak cuba ‘mengusiknya’ dengan mempertikaikan beberapa kandungannya terutama membabitkan keistimewaan hak kaum Melayu dan Bumiputera Sabah dan Sarawak. “Saya

  • Liang Shies from Challenge but Stands by Allegations Against Anwar Malaysian Insider July 5 , 2013 by ELIZABETH ZACHARIAH
    Liang shies from challenge but stands by allegations against Anwar Malaysian Insider July 5 , 2013 BY ELIZABETH ZACHARIAH The Barisan Nasional MP who accused opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of having RM322 million in offshore accounts is not prepared to repeat the allegation outside the house - where he will not be given protection from the law. Liang Teck Meng, who is the Simpang Renggam member of parliament, told The Malaysian Insider today that he is not going to take up the challenge to repeat the allegation, casting doubts on his "revelation" in Parliament on Tuesday. Liang in debating the King's speech, told the House that Anwar had more than RM332 million in 20 bank accounts in Israel, China, United States and Singapore. He claimed that his information was based on a Wikileaks cable. In an immediate response, opposition MPs challenged Liang to repeat the allegations outside the House where he will not be immune to legal suits. "Why should I respond? They are diverting the focus of my speech. I was talking about national security," he said today. He also insisted that he was standing by what he said and will not retract the allegations. Liang had handed over the documents on the bank accounts to the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim, saying that he was leaving it to the government to investigate the allegations. Yesterday. Liang stood his ground when Dewan Rakyat speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia asked him to clarify his allegations against Anwar after Pakatan Rakyat MPs demanded that he retract the statement and apologise.

  • Govt Eyeing Jatropha Oil for Biodiesel Production
    GOVT EYEING JATROPHA OIL FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION 14/05/2008 (Bernama), Kuala Lumpur - The government is looking at the possibility of using jatropha oil as a raw material for the production of biodiesel in the future, Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities Datuk Peter Chin Fah Kui said. However, this is still at the research and development stage and it has not reached the commercialisation stage yet, he said. The current use of palm oil and other vegetable oils as fuel has raised differing views as well as competition on their use as fuel or food sources, he said. Against this backdrop, the world's efforts are now being concentrated on using non-food based raw materials for the production of biofuel, he said in reply to a question from Liang Teck Meng (BN- Simpang Renggam) at the Question and Answer session at the Dewan Rakyat sitting here Wednesday. Chin said the biodiesel projects in Malaysia at the moment were based on the use of oil palm as the raw material. He explained that the production of biodiesel from waste materials including from oil palm was still at the early stage of research and development. The initial research has shown that the production of biodiesel from waste materials was still very high and not viable yet for commercialisation. On the current state of the country's biodiesel projects, Chin said about 91 percent of the projects had been approved with a total production capacity of 10.2 million tonnes a year. From this amount, a total of 12 biodiesel plants have been fully completed and are in operation with a production capacity of one million tonnes a year.

  • Malaysia Does Not Want Foreign Intervention to Determine Political Direction – Zahid Bernama Nov 2, 2016
    Malaysia does not want Foreign Intervention to determine Political Direction – Zahid Bernama Nov 2, 2016 KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 2 (Bernama) -- Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said today Malaysia does not want foreign intervention to determine its political direction. Ahmad Zahid, who is also the Home Minister, said the country's political mould was in accordance with its political situation and atmosphere. "Malaysia does not need funding from abroad that can sideline the main rationale of the people as a whole. "Malaysia should also not be influenced by external funding to online media, organisations, NGOs or individuals," he told the Dewan Rakyat. Ahmad Zahid was replying to a question from Datuk Liang Teck Meng (BN-Simpang Renggam) who had intervened during the debate on the Supply Bill 2017 allocation for the Home Ministry. Liang sought clarification on media reports about a foreign organisation chaired by billionaire George Soros which allegedly funded several local organisations to influence the outcome of the next general election. Ahmad Zahid said the government was committed to investigating any organisation, news or media suspected of obtaining foreign funds. "External interference should not take place for the sake of political stability in the country," said the deputy prime minister who took almost four hours to wind up the debate. In his intervention, Liang expressed concern over the alleged role of Soros who is said to have links with international networking companies and foreign media which were allegedly lobbying to topple Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and make Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim the prime minister.
