Removal Of Dr M’s Bodyguards Is Un-Malaysian, Says Guan Eng

kampring

GEORGE TOWN: Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has described the removal of former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s government-issued police bodyguards as un-Malaysian and the beginning of “a sad state of affairs” in the country.

The DAP secretary-general said a statesman like Mahathir ought to be treated with dignity, for his leadership which spanned more than two decades, not because of his current political alliances.

“Every leader must be given due recognition and treated with dignity, regardless of his political affiliation.

“Good or bad, you cannot wipe out history. You cannot strip him of his 22 years in service. This is the sad state of democracy in our country.

“What has happened is not Malaysian at all. This is not the Malaysian way to treat a senior leader like him,” Lim told FMT.

At the behest of the government, Mahathir, like all past prime ministers is entitled to a security detail and host of other benefits.

Mahathir, who is PPBM chairman, took to Facebook yesterday claiming the elite police commandos, known as UTK, were withdrawn by the government.

He also said that Kak Fauziah, a longtime domestic worker at his office, had her contract revoked a year ago.

Last year, former inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar admitted he had personally ordered for the withdrawal of police outriders provided for Mahathir.

Khalid had said “it did not make sense” if the former prime minister used outriders to attend illegal gatherings or events which are against the government.

Meanwhile, Lim said the Penang government was professional and courteous to all statesmen, regardless of their political affiliation.

He gave the example of providing courtesy state government cars to former prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi since he stepped down in 2009, to ferry him from the airport to his hometown in Kepala Batas, at his beck and call.

TINDAKAN Perdana Menteri Najib Razak menarik balik khidmat Unit Tindakan Khas (UTK) kepada bekas perdana menteri Dr Mahathir Mohamad adalah tidak wajar dan memalukan, kata pengguna Facebook dan Twitter Malaysia.

Menyifatkan ia sebagai bersifat peribadi, pengguna media sosial berkata sekiranya berlaku sesuatu kepada Dr Mahathir, Najib akan menyalahkan antara satu sama lain.

Mereka bagaimanapun berkata, walaupun tanpa pengawal peribadi UTK, Dr Mahathir masih kekal selamat kerana tiada rakyat Malaysia yang akan mengancam pengerusi Pakatan Harapan berusia 92 tahun itu.

Mereka mengulas mengenai keputusan Putrajaya semalam untuk menarik balik pengawal peribadi Dr Mahathir, yang merupakan keistimewaan yang diberikan kepada semua bekas perdana menteri

Tindakan ini dibuat setahun selepas Putrajaya menamatkan kontrak tukang masak dan pembantu pejabat Dr Mahathir.

Pengguna Facebook Denzel Loo dan Kent Lee berkata sekiranya berlaku sesuatu kepada Mahathir, Najib akan menyalahkan pihak lain.

"Bila berlaku apa-apa kepada Tdm (Tun Dr Mahathir) dia akan cakap (ia) bukan salahnya.

"Macam saya cakap sebelum ini, orang terdesak akan lakukan perkara terdesak. Apa lagi yang boleh mereka buat untuk selamatkan diri?" Komen Loo.

"Tuhan rahmati Tun M, walaupun tiada siapa yang akan sakiti Tun, sekiranya berlaku sesuatu, Najib akan lepas tangan," komen Lee.

Seorang lagi pengguna Facebook, Dah Ahmadshah mempersoalkan sebab di sebalik penarikan pengawal peribadi UTK.

"Apa alasan yang diberikan untuk tarik balik pengawal peribadi Dr Mahathir? Siapa yang arahkan dan atas bidang kuasa apa? Negara berhak untuk tahu. Tindakan ini memalukan.

"Tindakan ini memalukan negara, mereka perlu kembalikan pengawal peribadi Dr Mahathir. Hormat sikit bekas perdana menteri. Salut Tun kerana beliau akan ingat siapa yang lakukan ini kepada negara. Ini tidak baik dan tidak adil," kata Dah Ahmadshah.
