DR.27.11.2014 2 JAWAPAN-JAWAPAN LISAN BAGI PERTANYAAN-PERTANYAAN 1. Datuk William @ Nyallau anak Badak [Lubok Antu] minta Menteri Kesihatan menyatakan sama ada sedar atau tidak mengenai keadaan mesin radioterapi di Hospital Umum Sarawak (HUS) sudah uzur dan telah mengeluarkan radiasi yang memberi kesan sampingan yang sangat dahsyat kepada para pesakit justeru mesin yang merbahaya tersebut harus diganti dengan segera. Timbalan Menteri Kesihatan [Dato’ Seri Dr. Hilmi bin Yahaya]: Tuan Yang di-Pertua, terima kasih kepada Yang Berhormat Datuk William, Lubok Antu. Tuan Yang di-Pertua, pihak Kementerian Kesihatan sedia maklum bahawa perkhidmatan rawatan onkologi di Sarawak bergantung pada tiga unit mesin LINAC dan satu daripadanya telah berusia lebih daripada 10 tahun dan kerap mengalami kerosakan. Sehubungan dengan itu, pihak kementerian sedang dalam usaha menambah baik perkhidmatan tersebut dengan menempatkan satu lagi unit mesin LINAC di hospital tersebut dan proses perolehan peralatan tersebut sedang diuruskan oleh KKM dan dijangka akan dapat dibekalkan pada awal tahun hadapan. Tender telah dipanggil dan tender proses telah berjalan pada bulan Oktober dan dijangka dibekalkan pada awal tahun hadapan. Tuan Yang di-Pertua, keadaan persekitaran terapi unit Tuan Yang di-Pertua, adalah selamat. Memang kita sentiasa monitor keadaan di dalam bilik operasi, di luar bilik operasi dan juga di koridor dan didapati semuanya dalam menepati piawaian dan tiap-tiap kakitangan memang memakai film badge itu dan diperiksa tiap-tiap bulan. Jadi keadaan mereka selamat Tuan Yang di-Pertua. Datuk William @ Nyallau anak Badak [Lubok Antu]: Terima kasih Tuan Yang di- Pertua dan terima kasih kepada Yang Berhormat Timbalan Menteri ke atas jawapan yang diberikan. Yang Berhormat Menteri, kenapa saya soal persoalan ini kerana isteri saya sendiri telah melalui radioterapi dan telah mendapat kesan sampingan dengan begitu teruk. Kidney beliau telah berdarah dan usus beliau pun berdarah disebabkan radioterapi dan apabila saya berjumpa dengan oncologist beliau memberitahu bahawa mesin radioterapi di Hospital Ulu Sarawak adalah sudah tua dan tidak lagi berfungsi dengan baik. Dato’ Seri Dr. Hilmi bin Yahaya: Seperti yang saya sebut tadi Tuan Yang di-Pertua, memanglah kita dalam usaha dan sebenarnya disegerakan. Untuk Sarawak dan untuk Sabah pun kita akan supply pada masa lebih kurang yang sama jugalah, oleh tender yang sama. Jadi dalam hal ini, saya ingat selepas ini tidak timbul masalah lagi tentang radioterapi Tuan Yang di- Pertua. Tuan Wilson Ugak anak Kumbong [Hulu Rajang]: Hulu Rajang, terima kasih Tuan Yang di-Pertua, terima kasih Yang Berhormat Timbalan Menteri. Saya ingin bertanya kepada Yang Berhormat Timbalan Menteri, menjurus kepada soalan, beritahu hanya di Kuching sahaja, Hospital Umum Kuching dia ada radioterapi centre. Kita ada bahagian Miri, Hospital Bahagian Miri dan Hospital Bahagian Sibu. Kalau boleh, mohon kementerian untuk membuat satu lagi atau DR.27.11.2014 3 kedua lagi di Miri dan di Sibu kerana di central region ini banyak penduduk luar bandar terpaksa menunggu radioterapi tersebut. Saya mohon kementerian, supaya Yang Berhormat Menteri mendapatkan menyediakan peruntukan ataupun membuat lagi radioterapi centre di Sibu dan di Miri. Terima kasih. Dato’ Seri Dr. Hilmi bin Yahaya: Ya Tuan Yang di-Pertua, memang kita sedar kerana kementerian sedar tentang masalah yang timbul di Miri dan di Sibu. Oleh sebab jauh, kalau menaiki helikopter tiga jam baru sampai dari Miri ke Kuching. Memang keadaan yang menyusahkanlah. Oleh sebab itu dalam hal pembangunan, memang kita merancang untuk hendak upgrade Sibu dan juga Miri Tuan Yang di-Pertua. Jadi dia makan masa sedikit oleh sebab kos yang begitu tinggi Tuan Yang di-Pertua. 2. Dato' Fauzi bin Abdul Rahman [Indera Mahkota] minta Menteri Sumber Manusia menyatakan kadar pengangguran negara dari tahun 2000 hingga kini dan langkah yang diambil Kementerian bagi membantu rakyat mencari pekerjaan. Nyatakan juga jumlah graduan yang menganggur bagi tempoh yang sama. ■1010 Menteri Sumber Manusia [Dato’ Sri Richard Riot anak Jaem]: Tuan Yang di-Pertua, selamat pagi, salam sejahtera dan salam 1Malaysia. Bagi menjawab soalan dari Yang Berhormat Indera Mahkota iaitu yang menanyakan kadar pengangguran negara dari tahun 2000 hingga kini dan langkah-langkah yang diambil kementerian bagi membantu rakyat mencari pekerjaan.

Oleh yang demikian, negara kita dengan DR.27.11.2014 4 peratusan pengangguran pada tahun 2014 ini ialah 2.7%. Maka negara kita jatuh di bawah golongan yang dikategorikan sebagai zero atau sifar unemployment rate. Tuan Yang di-Pertua, bagi langkah-langkah yang diambil bagi membantu rakyat mencari pekerjaan.

  • BN Will Not Give Anwar an Easy Run in By-Election Malaysiakini.Com Aug 4, 2008 Chan Kok Leong
    BN will not give Anwar an easy run in by-election Malaysiakini.com Aug 4, 2008 Chan Kok Leong Barisan Nasional will not give PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim an easy run by not placing a candidate at the Permatang Pauh by election. MCPX najib hilton hotel pc 010808 01Deputy Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak said that calls made by two Umno leaders against placing BN candidates were made in their personal capacity. Kelantan Umno liaison committee chairperson Annuar Musa and Deputy Health Minister Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad had suggested that the coalition does not contest in Permatang Pauh. Abdul Latiff had said: "If the leadership insists on contesting (in Permatang Pauh), I suggest we put an accounts supervisor or a local divisional member. "There is support for Barisan but not enough," he was quoted as saying in today's newspapers. If BN was to give a walkover, the election commission would also save money, Abdul Latiff reasoned. "It's not about only winning or losing but BN must present a choice to the Permatang Pauh voters," said Najib after closing the Umno Wanita "Meet the Leaderhip" meeting today. He said that the BN supreme council will discuss at its meeting on Wednesday on a suitable candidate for the seat. The seat fell vacant following Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail's decision to relinquish it to allow her husband to contest. Shahrizat endorsed wanita umno pak lah meet rafidah shahrizat event 040808 05Meanwhile, Najib said he endorsed the transfer of power plan by Wanita chief Rafidah Aziz to her deputy Sharizat Abdul Jalil by June 2009.

  • Najib's Fork-Tongue Shows Again: Umno Talks of Rejuvenation Yet Oldies Get Plum Jobs at Expense of New Blood
    NAJIB'S FORK-TONGUE SHOWS AGAIN: UMNO TALKS OF REJUVENATION YET OLDIES GET PLUM JOBS AT EXPENSE OF NEW BLOOD 11 February 2016 - Malaysia Chronicle The recent appointments of Tan Sri Annuar Musa, 59, as Umno information chief, and Datuk Seri Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah, 65, as Kedah menteri besar, have raised doubts whether one of the oldest parties in the country is truly committed to rejuvenating itself. The two stalwarts are taking over the duties of younger colleagues, Datuk Ahmad Maslan, 49, and Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir, 51, respectively. Umno’s decision to replace both Ahmad and Mukhriz with older leaders indicates that internal politics trumps the changes it must make to stay relevant among the younger generation. In a party where the Youth chief himself is 40 and sporting a greying beard, Umno president Datuk Seri Najib Razak has time and again stressed the need to rejuvenate itself and attract the young. “Umno and Najib specifically have been saying about it (rejuvenation) for quite some time but they lack the political will to do so,” said Professor Dr Arnold Puyok, a political science lecturer from Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. “I don’t think Najib has totally abandoned the idea of ‘peremajaan Umno’ (rejuvenation). He is just being cautious as doing so will put him in a collision course with the old guards.” In fact, as far back as 2014, Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin said older Umno leaders were unhappy with Najib’s call for rejuvenation as they believed it would pit them against their younger counterparts. He said the “noble proposal” that would help Umno win elections could be a “ticking time- bomb” instead.

  • No Action Against Use of the Word 'Rakyat' in Voicing Objections, Says
    No action against use of the word ‘rakyat’ in voicing objections, says Malaysia’s PM Malaysian Insider June 27, 2013 THE Government will not act against any group using the word “rakyat” merely to voice their objection against the results of the 13th general election, said Malaysia's Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. He also said that the Government was not afraid of the expression “Malaysian Spring” used by the groups purportedly to demonstrate efforts used to topple the Government through street protests, reported thestaronline.com. “The Government will give space for people to express their views provided they do not breach the country’s laws. “At the same time, the Government will ensure that public peace and national sovereignty are respected,” he told Datuk Abdul Latiff Ahmad (BN-Mersing) in Parliament. Najib said any attempt to overthrow the Government through street demonstrations and riots would not bring any good to Malaysia. “In fact, countries that are in a state of unrest cannot achieve anything positive. “The economy and politics in these countries are ruined as a result of fighting and there is no assurance that they can be restored,” he added. Najib also said that national reconciliation could only be achieved if Pakatan Rakyat accepted the outcome of the election results. “A National Unity Consultation Council (MPKN) is being planned to find ways to solve the issue of race and religious polarisation that was evident during the elections,” he told Lim Kit Siang (DAP-Gelang Patah). Lim had asked the Government to state its efforts at national reconciliation after the elections.

ISSN: 1944-6934 :: 4(3):239-252 (2011) Copyright c 2011 by InternationalJournal.org THE SOCIAL REALITY OF THE MALAYSIAN BLOGOSPHERE Abdul Latiff Ahmad Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia This paper explores the social reality of blogging in Malaysia. The presence of blogs has created a change in terms of the flow of communication and how information is obtained, shared and accessed. With a Malaysian customized framework of press freedom and strong emphasis on the multicultural values and religion, there are various factors to be considered before one decides what to write in a blog. Thus this study aims at discussing three key components of blogging as a new media technology and how its presence has opened up new avenues of interaction and created an impact to not only the individuals at hand but also the reading audience. The key issues explored are issues related to identity, interaction and empowerment. These key issues were later analyzed using a thematic matrix schema which highlights six key themes that consist of disclosure: public vs. private debates, voice and expression, virtual environment, personal growth and life changing experiences, relationship and support systems and the influential power. Twenty Malaysian bloggers between the ages of 21-35 were interviewed for this research. The participating respondents write in blogs of various genres that include politics, humor, daily lives and entertainment. Keywords: blogosphere, blogging, empowerment, Malaysia.
