PRESS RELEASE 09/02/2011

The Reform Party www.thereformparty.net

The Reform Party is delighted to announce that following on from a very successful Rally it has received a large boost to its membership.

Mr Kenneth Jeyaretnam, Secretary General of The Reform Party said, “Every member is unique and vital to our fight for democratic representation but we are particularly delighted that Mr. Gilbert Goh has today submitted his application for membership.”

Mr Gilbert Goh

Mr Goh is the author of, “How to survive unemployment: A survival guide for the jobless”.  Married with a 17-year old daughter, he is one of the founders of the website transitioning.org which is dedicated to helping those who are retrenched or unemployed and offering counseling.

Gilbert’s work has become increasingly important as immigration continues unchecked and a large number of our work force faces retrenchment at 40 or even before.

After much deliberation Gilbert realized he could no longer ignore the call to stand up and to make his own transition from writing to active Party membership.

Mr Jeyaretnam said he was delighted to have Mr Goh on board. “Gilbert perfectly fits the Reform Party model of leading by action and standing for change.” He added.

Released by Kenneth Jeyaretnam on behalf of the Reform Party, Feb 10th 2011

马国首相同意每周三到国会回答议员提问

仿效英国“首相问答时间”,马来西亚首相马哈迪同意在国会召开期间,每周三到国会回答议员提问。 目前,马国国会每周二和周四已设有部长问答环节,而首相问答时间环节则落在周三。 马国会下议院副议长倪可敏早前曾透露,希望能在下一季国会会议,落实“首相问答时间”环节。 不过,上述建议曾在上月底,被负责国会事务的首相署部长刘伟强所否决。 当时刘伟强指,现阶段已有部长问答时间,无需增设首相问答环节。 不过,最近刘伟强又改口风,希望能落实首相问答时间环节,让马哈迪亲自解答议员的提问。 在英国,首相问答环节定在每周三的中午12时至12时30分。通常先是议员询问首相行程,再来就是议员提问,特别是反对党领袖可以提问多达六道问题。而每次的首相问答环节免不了唇枪舌战。 议员、媒体在国会走廊为敦马庆生 另一方面,今日马哈迪亦有出席国会会议,针对议员提问回答马航去留问题。 他透露,马国政府目前收到许多有关马航的献议,但政府尚未决定是否要出售马航,或是与其他公司以合伙方式接管马航。 他认为,无论是收购或以合伙形式接管马航的公司,都必须答应不会更改马航的名字,不能让马航与马来西亚“脱离关系”。 另外,买家或合作伙伴也必须答应不能裁员。…
