A Samad Said ajak golongan muda ubah negara


Khaulah Azwar

KUALA LUMPUR, 11 Julai: Sasterawan Negara, Datuk A. Samad Said mengajak rakyat jelata terutamanya golongan muda mengubah pemimpin negara melalui demokrasi untuk membentuk kerajaan baru yang adil, tulus dan berkebajikan.

“Kita berada disini adalah hak kita, kita berada di sini adalah sebab kita mencintai negara kita, yang tidak cintakan negara kita adalah Najib dan Umno," kata Samad ketika memberikan ucapan ringkas kepada peserta perhimpunan Bersih Sabtu lepas.

Beliau melahirkan rasa bangga dengan semua rakyat yang hadir dalam himpunan Bersih 2.0 untuk menuntut hak pilihanraya yang bersih dan tulus untuk mengadap sultan bagi menyerahkan memorandum.

"Tetapi perjalanan kita disekat di semua penjuru oleh Polis dan FRU,” kata Pak Samad di hadapan rakyat yang berkumpul di hadapan Kuil Budha untuk menuju ke Stadium Negara petang Sabtu lepas.

“ Apakah salahnya rakyat berkumpul untuk menuntut hak. Negara ini bukan milik Najib dan Umno, negara ini bukan milik Rosmah tetapi negara ini milik rakyat. Ini rumah kita,” katanya.

Bagi beliau, rakyat ke stadium Merdeka dengan bertekad untuk menyatakan hak tetapi disekat, di layan buruk oleh pihak polis dan FRU.

Menurut Pak Samad, dia datang daripada KL Central. Namun belum pun sempat sampai KL Central mata beliau sudah pedih ditembak dengan gas pemedih mata yang sangat dasyat.

"Mata kanan saya terlalu pedih dan merah yang amat sangat. Beberapa wartawan yang jalankan tugasnya juga dilayan dengan kasar oleh polis. Beg wartawan juga di selongkar…mengapa teruk sangat mereka menjalankan tugas?" soal tokoh yang dinobatkan sebagai Sastrawan Negara itu.

Menurut Pak Samad, mereka datang memang ingin serahkan memorandum kepada sultan untuk menuntut pilihanraya yang bersih dan adil tetapi tidak kesampaian kerana polis telah sekat dan tidak bertolak ansur langsung dalam perbincangan dengan beberapa orang pimpinan NGO.

Berbagai alasan yang diberikan oleh polis. “saya benar-benar rasa kesal dengan tindakan Perdana Menteri Malaysia , Najib yang telah memungkiri janji kepada rakyat.

"Najib berjanji kepada kita akan beri pilihan untuk adakan himpunan sampai jam berapa pun kita tidak kisah, nak pekik telolong sampai ke pagi pun mereka tak peduli, tetapi bila kita pilih Stadium Merdeka, mengapa mereka berdolak dalih dan tidak membenarkan penganjur untuk adakan bersih di stadium.

"Bahkan semua urusan permit tidak diluluskan walaupun sudah beberapa kali diminta.

“Mengapa mereka tidak luluskan, adakah mereka takut dengan kebangkitan rakyat?” soal beliau.

Sehubungan itu, beliau memberikan peringatan:

“saya ingin ingatkan kepada semua rakyat. Negara kita mengamalkan sistem demokrasi oleh itu, kita harus bijak gunakan demokrasi ini. Kalau kita tidak bijak orang akan peralatkan sistem demokrfasi negara kita untuk kekalkan kuasanya seperti apa yang berlaku sekarang," tegasnya.

(Antara ribuan yang mendengar ucapan A Samad Said)

Menurut beliau, dalam demokrasi ada lunasnya yang perlu dihormati, antaranya mendengar suara rakyat bukan terus menolaknya. "Kita ini adalah insan."

Justeru itu, beliau berharap semua rakyat harus fikirkan masa depan negara ini.

"Masa depan negara kita terletak pada orang muda. Orang muda sahaja yang layak mengubah. Setiap orang muda harus fikir bagaimana untuk membantu membentukkan kerajaan yang baru," kata Samad yang diikuti dengan laungan takbir daripada rakyat yang berhimpun disitu.

Gandakan kejayaan Bersih 2007


Sementara itu pula Saudara Mazlan Aliman pejuang rakyat pula berkata, “walaupun kita hadapi ugutan dengan ancaman sekatan daripada pihak berkuasa polis yang dikuasai oleh Umno tetapi kita berjaya hadapi dengan tenang dan dapat berkumpul dengan aman melebihi 300, 000 rakyat yang datang dari seluruh negeri”.

Demokrasi petang ini mencatat sejarah apabila ratusan ribuan manusia berkumpul di merata tempat.

"Message ini jelas kita berikan kepada PM bahawa rakyat ingin menuntut pilihanraya yang telus dan bersih. Dengan itu saya harap kepada semua peserta himpunan Bersih 2.0 jadikan himpunan ini sebagai pusingan ke dua.

"Kalau 2007 ribuan penduduk berkumpul dalam himpunan bersih sehingga Pakatan Rakyat (PR) berjaya merampas lima negeri dan akan datang saya harap kita akan rampas semua negeri di Malaysia ini," katanya dengan disambut laungan takbir.

Beberapa badan NGO, aktivis anti ISA juga turut beri ucapan menuntut keadilan dalam pilihanraya ke 13 nanti.

Ingat, Perhimpunan Bersih berjaya pada10 November 2007 kerana kesungguhan rakyat. Maka, kini adalah masa untuk kita berjuang bersama untuk mereformasikan pilihanraya, mengkukuhkan berbadanan institusi dan hentikan korupsi.


Ingatlah, peristiwa ini adalah peluang untuk anda sekali seumur hidup dan ianya akan kekal menjadi sejarah yang akan menjadi sebutan kepada anak cucu kita. Jangan lepaskan peluang untuk menjadi sebahagian dari sejarah ini.

Kambing Lahirkan Anak Anjing

Beijing - Aneh, itulah kata yang keluar ketika melihat kambing milik Liu Naiying, seorang petani di China yang mendakwa bahwa kambingnya melahirkan seekor anak anjing.

Anak anjing yang dilahirkan oleh kambing tersebut memiliki rupa yang mirip kambing, kerana seluruh tubuhnya ditumbuhi rambut-rambut yang biasa ada di tubuh kambing.

Namun, mulut, hidung, mata, cakar dan ekornya lebih mirip anak anjing.

"Pertama kali melihatnya saya amat terperanjat dan juga takut. Kerana 20 tahun saya beternak kambing, baru kali ini kambing saya melahirkan anak yang mirip anjing begini," ungkap Liu.

Liu juga menyatakan bahawa anak anjing kambing ini bertingkah laku layaknya seekor anak anjing.

Doktor haiwan tempatan pun masih tidak percaya dan tidak dapat berfikir bagaimana hal ini dapat terjadi.

Namun, seluruh penduduk berbondong-bondong mengunjungi kebun Liu untuk dapat melihat sendiri anak anjing kambing tersebut.

Seorang peneliti haiwan, Yue Guozhang menjelaskan, bahwa kambing dan anjing berasal dari spesies yang berbeza, sehingga kejadian ini memang suatu hal yang tidak dapat terima logik akal.

"Tidak mungkin seekor kambing dapat melahirkan seekor anjing. Mungkin kambing ini memiliki kelainan," ujar Yue, demikian disiarkan Orange, hari ini.

DUNIA: Murid 11 tahun lebih bijak daripada Einstein



CLAVERLEY - Seorang murid perempuan, Victoria Cowie (gambar) yang baru berusia 11 tahun dikatakan lebih bijak berbanding saintis terkenal seperti Albert Einstein dan Stephen Hawking kerana dia memiliki skor kecerdasan (IQ) mencecah 162, lapor sebuah akhbar semalam.

Kepintaran Cowie diakui selepas dia mendapat skor 162 dalam ujian IQ.

Pencapaian itu adalah lebih baik daripada skor yang diperoleh oleh saintis terkenal, Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking dan pengasas perisian komputer, Bill Gates iaitu 160.

"Saya sangat sukakan teka-teki dan menyelesaikan masalah. Saya mahu belajar dalam jurusan sains, terutama biologi," katanya yang sudah mendapat tawaran biasiswa untuk melanjutkan pelajaran di empat buah sekolah berprestij.

Selain meminati mata pelajaran sains dan membuat eksperimen, Cowie juga suka berlakon, menari dan bermain alat muzik.

Ibunya, Alison, memberitahu, anaknya itu mempunyai kemampuan membaca sejak kecil dan pernah memenangi anugerah sains di sekolah.

Ibu bapanya kurang pasti daripada mana Cowie mewarisi kepintarannya itu.

Purata IQ manusia ialah 100.

Ekoran keputusan tersebut, Cowie mengalahkan kepintaran Napoleon Bonaparte yang mendapat skor 145, Setiausaha Negara Amerika Syarikat (AS), Hillary Clinton (140), penyanyi terkenal, Madonna (140) dan pengarah filem, Quentin Tarantino (160). - Agensi

8.9 quake, tsunami HIT japan

Hawaii remained in the crosshairs of a potentially destructive tsunami this morning after a massive 8.9-magnitude quake hit off Honshu, Japan.

While the first waves weren’t expected to hit the islands until 3:07 a.m., scientists warned that the series of waves could last for hours.

Civil Defense ordered the evacuation of coastal inundation zones and the state opened emergency “refuge” centers.

John Cummings, a spokesman for city Department of Emergency Management, said about 30,000 residents live in the coastal inundation zone, according to recent estimates.

Even before Civil Defense sirens began sounding just before 10 p.m., Honolulu motorists began lining up at gas stations to top off their tanks. Police dispatch reported arguments over gas in Ewa Beach and many stations had long lines.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, based in Ewa Beach, issued a tsunami watch at 7:56 p.m. after the quake struck 231 miles northeast of Tokyo. The watch was upgraded to a more serious warning about 9:30 p.m.

“A tsunami has been generated that could cause damage along coastlines of all islands in the state of Hawaii,” the warning center said in a statement. “Urgent action should be taken to protect lives and property.”

The warning center said wave heights could not be predicted, but the first wave may not be the largest. The warning center said “all shores are at risk” in Hawaii no matter which direction they face.

Chip McCreary, director of the warning center, said the latest forecast models show “wave amplitudes of up to 2 meters (6 feet) beyond normal sea levels in Hawaii.

“What these waves look like is an elevation of sea level, where the sea level will rise above its normal level and stay high for 10 or 15 minutes before they recede,” McCreary said.

Because of the long length of tsunami waves, “they wrap around our islands very efficiently” so there is no point of impact that may see higher waves than other areas.

Because of the direction of the waves, the first major island hit would be Kauai, he said. It would only take 20 minutes for the first waves to move through the entire island chain, he said.

The city opened its Emergency Operations Center at the Frank F. Fasi building, where police, firefighters and Mayor Peter Carlisle assembled.

“We’re looking at a potentially very serious event here,” said Cummings.

Hawaiian Electric has opened its emergency command center and is implementing its tsunami plans, according to Peter Rosegg, HECO spokesman.

The striking IBEW union workers are still out, Rosegg said, adding that the electric company has an agreement with the union that workers will return to work in case of a “major emergency.”

Crews of Pearl Harbor ships were summoned, but the vessels will remain in the harbor, the Navy said.
