Media Statement by DAP Chairman of Perak, MP for Beruas and Senior Exco Pakat Rakyat Perak Dato Ngeh Koo Ham at Headquarter Perak, Ipoh

Perak State is in a stand still mode and the people suffer as a result. Call on the people to boycott Zambry and his exco for refusing to bow to the wishes of the people that the Perak State Legislative Assembly be dissolved and a fresh election called to resolve the present predicament


More than 6 months have elapsed since the immoral and unprincipled grab of power in Perak by Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir and his Exco members. The people of Perak is suffering as no serious investor would want to have a look at Perak due to the uncertainties created by Dato’ Seri Zambry and his BN power grabbers. Recent announcements that some investors are interested to invest in Perak are only eyewash to mislead the people. None of the projects is moving and investors remain at the interested to invest stage.The position of the Menteri Besar is still in doubt waiting for the final arbiter, the Federal Court to make a decision. Entangled together with the question as to who the legitimate Menteri Besar is, is the uncertainty of the local councilors and the village heads appointed by BN to replace the councilors and village heads appointed or elected under the Pakatan Rakyat Government. We hardly see anything moves in Perak as a result. BN is solely responsible for this state of affairs.

During the 10 months’ reign of Perak by Pakatan Rakyat under the able leadership of Dato Seri Nizar Bin Jamaluddin, people see positive changes sweeping through Perak which benefited them. During the short 10 months, scores of positive changes were made which benefited the people.

The people must end this present predicament and the way forward is to dissolve the State Legislative Assembly and allow a fresh election to be held. 90% of those surveyed (which includes both BN and PR supporters) wanted the State Legislative Assembly dissolved. We cannot allow Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abd Kadir to go against the wishes of the people. I call on the people to boycott Zambry and his exco members. All organizations and associations must stop inviting them to their functions to send a clear and strong message that we will not accept Zambry’s refusal to dissolve the State Legislative Assembly. Zambry from UMNO with his racist’s mind has said that I have called on the Chinese Associations not to invite him to their functions which is a lie. He tries again to play the racial card which is in vogue with UMNO leaders. My call is to all organizations and associations and to people of all races and religions to boycott him and his Exco members. The desire to see the Perak State Legislative Assembly dissolved to pave the way for a fresh election comes from people of all races and religions as the people is demanding back their democratic rights to chose their leaders to lead the state of Perak.


民主行动党霹雳州主席、木威区国会议员兼民联霹雳州高级行政议员拿督倪可汉于2009年8月20日，在怡保霹雳州总部发表文告：

霹雳州依然处在一个人民受损害的现况。呼吁人民杯葛赞比里及他的行政议员因其拒绝依附人民的意愿解散霹雳州议会重新选举，以便解决目前的窘境。


民联霹雳州政权被拿督斯里赞比里及其行政议员不道德及毫无原则地夺走至今已经超过6个月。霹雳州人民处在受损害的情况，因为拿督斯里赞比里及国阵的夺权者导致的不确定性，造成没有真诚的投资者愿意前来霹雳州进行投资。

最新的宣布指出，有一些投资者有兴趣在霹雳州进行投资只是为了误导人民的表面说辞，事实上并没有任何工程已经开始进行，投资者依然停留在观望的阶段。

州务大臣的地位依然未确定，仍然等待联邦法院仲裁作出最后的判决。在未知谁是真正合法的州务大臣的同时，国阵委任市议员及村长取代民联委任及选出的市议员及村长的做法也出现争议性。我们几乎看不见霹雳州有任何的改进。国阵是唯一必须为这些情况负责。

拿督斯里尼查领导的民联政府在执政的10个月内，让人民看见及感受到霹雳州许多正面及对人民有益的改变。在短短的10个月，有许多积极的政策改变真正惠及人民。

人民必须终止目前的困境，最好的方法就是解散州议会重新选举。根据民调，共有90%的人民（包括国阵及民联的支持者）要求解散州议会。我们不能允许拿督斯里赞比里违背人民的意愿。

我呼吁人民杯葛赞比里及他的行政议员。所有组织及社团一定要停止邀请他们出席本身举办的活动，以便传达一个强烈及清楚的讯息，即我们不会接受赞比里表示拒绝解散州议会的做法。来自巫统并拥有种族歧视的思维的赞比里曾说过我呼吁华人社团不邀请他们出席活动的说法是谎言。他再次使用巫统领袖惯用的种族伎俩。我的呼吁是面向所有的组织、社团及人民，包括所有种族及宗教，全面杯葛赞比里及他的行政议员。

希望霹雳州议会解散并重新进行选举是来自各民族及宗教的人民心里最大的意愿，因为他们希望能重新取回民主的权利，选出他们心目中的领袖来领导霹雳州。
