DAP..tak habis habis dgn babinya.

DAP apa hang pa mau lagi??? PAS dah banyak bersabaq dengan hang pa .....Ust Azizan dah bagi sebulan walau pun dapat bantahan dari orang Islam sekeliling (ni UMNO punya hasutan la ni).......sudahlah pi duduk bincang dengan PAS elok-elok, tak malu ka UMNO & BN dok gelak tengok kat Pakatan.

Tapi yang herannya pasai apa sejak dari 1995 Kerajaan UMNO (bekas) yang mengaku pembela melayu tak bertindak...tunggu sampai PAS kena ambik tindakan....UMNO ada share kut?

Above report mentioned the MB had agreed for a new allocated area specialized for swine slaughter. Maybe similar with Selangor's step to consolidate pig farming for greater efficiency and hygiene.

So DAP, what's the issue here? Mau tarik balik ka keputusan tarik keluar? Still tada puas hati lagi? Mau cari pasal dengan other komponen parti? Mau jadi macam BeEnd ka?

If PAS keep the promise to settle the issue , DAP should co-operate.

PAS in Kedah must improve it management skill to really rule the state properly .

Only left 4 states for PR and the Kedah is the weakest state among 4 . The PR's heads should really work hard on Kedah and never disappoint the people those voted for them .

For once, I'm with PAS this time. DAP Kedah shouldn't have acted too rashly.

woii!...hopeless "PAS in Kedah must improve it management skill to really rule the state properly ."
what management skill? BN cannot resolve the issue for 30 years.

the chinese is free to pig farm but the chinese should not "annoy" others because of the waste disposal. they should also respect others. Pig farming should be control. new location had been identified. why the fuzz?

This is a demerit to DAP as DAP should be working with PAS to solve the issue. Boycott is just nt the right way to do it.

Bt then on another issue of the 50% qouta for Bumi...i am not sure for Kedah govt make such decision, is it based on facts and nos? Would there be a lot of unsold units? Would tht scared away developers?

The state DAP needs to look at the big picture. If they cannot do this, then please replace the state DAP leaders to smarter ones who won't make rash, stupid moves that BN will exploit.

"Pusat itu yang sudah beroperasi lebih 30 tahun, namun tanpa lesen yang sah"

no license also can operate for 30 years, lol.
Should have been demolished 30 years ago, DAP Kedah is stupid for threating to leave pakatan over such issue. If got license is different story.

If Pakatan screw up. PAS, DAP or PKR don't dream can rules Malaysia. don't dream can vanish BN iether corruption just because of this issue.

Sudah 30 tahun beroperasi tapi kerajaan UMNO tak ambil tindakan, mun gkin kerana ada share atau dapat habuan setiap bulan. DAP Kedah, satu pesanan untuk anda, adakah anda akan menghalalkan operasi babi atau perniagaan lain walaupun haram. Ikutlah undang-undang sikit, jangan terburu-buru. MB Kedah dan beri peluang dan faham masalah ini. tempat inipun dah dikosongkan jadi apa isyunya? Setuju saja tempat baru, semua selsesai. Tapi di tempat baru pun janganlah cemarkan alam sekitar. Rumah babi di Malaysia tak ada yang bersih, sebab tu orang islam marah. Mereka yang mengendalikannya pakai hentam saja, tak ada sikap perihatin, cuma nak buat duit saja. Banyak negeri dah haramkan ternakan babi, termasuk Singapura. kalau nak makan sangat belilah babi import, lagipun banyak mana sangatlah orang Cina makan babi sekarang. Ramai juga yang dah tak makan.

Rather than playing the issue Kedah DAP should be more matured.MB had given an alternative tha the abbatoir should be far from muslim residence.He didnt said you cannot built pig abbatoir at all.The abatoir operators are lucky that they managed to bribe BN govt to close one eye even though numoreus complaints had been places.

Dont threat to pull away from PR.Just do it straight away..PR dont need people like you

Ana amat terkilan. Mengapa ini jadi isu politik. Perkara dalam pentadbiran harus diselesaikan bersama. Saya rasa sepatutnya DAP Kedah memberitahu perkara sebenar kepada rakyat bahawa ianya dalam usaha untuk diselesaikan. Lagipun kotoran-kotoran ini dibuang dalam tong sampah dan air sungai atau alor yang mana melibatkan kebersihan dan kesihatan semua penduduk setempat. Akur bahawa DAP mesti dilihat orang-orangnya yang dia membela dan tidak tidur. Tapi dalam hal ini kan masa telah diberi supaya dicari tempat alternatif dan masa itu adalah seperti yang diminta oleh DAP sendiri. Perkara remeh ini akan memberi peluang kepada musuh dan merugikan kita. Pemimpin mesti lebih telus dan jangan hanya semata-mata takut sahaja. Setelah diberi amanah kita kendalikan bersama sebaik mungkin dan jika gagal kita berdepan dengan rakyat. Kita tidak menipu dan dengan itu kita mesti berani menyatakannya.

I tanya u org Cina DAP. U all sanggup minum air sungai yg menjadi tempat najis babi dilepaskan? U all sanggup duduk di tempat ada kandang babi besar seperti di Mergong tu? Hello DAP Kedah, it's only shows your stupidity. No brain punya olang. Jangan ganggu keharmonian PR.

I really dont get this whole thing. What is wrong with the pig? there is nothing wrong with others eating pork if the islamic people dont consume. please dont use the chinese for pork, malay fpr beef, indian for no beef? can people just stop being stereotype on even FOOD!?

I must say that if the abbatoir is not hygienic, then it needs to be shut down because it causes big problem to the people in neighborhood, be it malay, chinese or indian or minorities watever colour you name it. It is about human hygience, not about racial preference. but a clean abbatoir, we all can accept and happy having it just fine.

YOu cannot deny the fact that there are people who eat pork, so there must be an industry for it, a government should be sensitive and find solution, like an alternate location with proper sanitation standard. DOnt make a fuss just for political purpose. finding a piece of land and get on with the production, what is there to quarrel about. There are so many issues to handle about the state and its people, save some time for better purposes.

Dear malaysian, please dont be a racist on subject like this. people have freedom in food, lifestyle, religion and culture. learn to cooperate and considerate. we are all neighbor to all. better put the energy to achieve something meaningful than arguing on some simple issues. be a mature citizen.

Totally agreed wit Ww comment . Malaysian : we need this kind of thinking to end our corrupted government ...k. i hope PR will able to choose right local n federal leader that with high standard of leadership n wider view of a RAKYAT leader.

Feel Proud with "Ww" PR should learn n hear more to "Ww"

They will not get license at the new site. Just like in the old place, for thirty years they did noit get license.

This is not a racist issue at all. Kampung Berjaya used to be very far away from the town centre 30 years ago. But now Alor Setar is a city and has expanded beyong Kampung Berjaya. The City Council want to give the city a nice and proper image and do not want any abotoir within the city limits.
What the aboitoir operators should do is convert the land to residential area or industrial area and develope them and make good profits. The aboitoir can be moved to Pendang which is not so far away by today's access roads and run professionally and hygineinically. The DAP is taking this as a racial issue and it could be at the instigation of the MCA because usually the pig towkays are MCA supporters.
Same like the so called 50% Malay quota for housing development on Malay reserved land. Most of the land in Alor Star are classified as Malay reserved long before Merdeka. PAS is considerate that the Malay reserved land be developed for all races to live but 50% be reserved for the Malays which in other words is saying that the Malays lose 50% of their reservation. But the DAP and MCA cry that this is unfair 50% is way beyond 30% that BN has been practising. The 30% is applicable on land which is not classified as Malay reserved. To develop Malay reserved land need the cooperation of the UMNO politicians to revoke the status and you know how the revocation procedures take place over and under the tables. Its time consuming and costly. So now the MB has simplified it that the Malay reserved land around Alor Star can be developed with the simple condition of 50% ownership by Malays. There is no saying that the allocation must be equal in racial distribution. The shop lots and commercial area may still be in the hands of non Malays. The Malays will only afford the low costs flats and houses. That also the DAP and MCA make lots of noise.
Let PAS led PR manage the state. At least in Kedah the civil service and the istana are not hostile to PR. The new MB has managed to at least neutralise UMNO and BN so much so that even Kedah UMNO do not have a capable leader to lead them and has to import one from Sabah.

Semua perniagaan yang hendak dijalankan mesti kena ada lesen, tak kira Cina,India, Melayu, Siam atau apa pun bangsa dia. Ini sudah bertahun tahun beroperasi tanpa lesen, apa cerita ni? Kenapa ada pengubal undang undang negeri Kedah ini mahu mempertahankan amalan ini. Ini kerja betul ke atau ada apa apa di sebaliknya? Kenalah ikhlas, jujur dan betul.

Saya fikir penting sekali kita bincang dengan tenang dan rasional isu ini. Soalan pertama: Siapakah yang bertindak terburu-buru ___ MB kedah , MBAS atau DAP Kedah ? Apakah cemas sangat pusat pemnyebelihan babi yang tunggal di Kedah itu dirobohkan dalam masa 1 bulan itu ? Tempat pemyebelihan baru belum nampak bayang pun ! Ini saya kurang faham. Soalan 2 : Setujutak hak makan daging babi adalah salah 1 hak asasi bagi rakyat bukan Islam di kedah ? Soalan 3: DAP Kedah bukan mempertahankan Tempat Pemyebelihan babi itu supaya tidak dirobohkan, tetapi cara dan masa tempat itu dirobohkan. Kenapa tidak tunggu hingga tempat pemyebelihan baru yang lebih bersih/hygenic,lebih sesuai disiap bina terlebih dahulu ?
Soalan 4: Ramai yang komen itu tidak dapat membincangkan isu 1 per 1 ,tetapi campuradukkan semua isu dengan emosi. Masalahl kebersihan tempat itu adalah berbeza dengan masalah tempat itu ,walaupun ada berkaitan. Kalau masalah kekotoran,kenapa tidak cari penyelesaiannya terlebih dahulu , sekurang-kurangnya buat masa menunggu tempat baru disiapkan
Soalan 5: Semua rakyat bukan Islam termasuk DAP Kedah setuju semua pihak perlu peka dan memberi kerjasama dalam hal ini, tetapi dengan cara begitu tergesa-gesa tempat itu dirobohkan,adakah PAS Kedah memaksudkan rakyat bukan Islam di Kedah tidak boleh memakan daging babi ? Soalan 6 : Sedarkah PAS Kedah bahawa keyakinan rakyat bukan Islam terhadap PAS yang baru diperolehi selepas sekian lama usaha PAS, tetapi telah musnah dalam masa sekelip mata oleh tindakan itu. Is this what you want ? I am sure PAS can find somebody better to lead PR in Kedah.

Eloklah kita berbincang secara tenang dan rasional isu ini. Soalan pertama : Siapakah bertindak dengan terburu-buru ---- MB Kedah , MBAS atau DAP Kedah ? Apakah cemas sangat tempat penyembelihan babi yang tunggal di Kedah itu dirobohkan dalam masa 1 bulan itu. tak bolehkah tunggu hingga tempat baru yang lebih bersih/hygenic dan seuai dibina dahulu ?
Soalan 2 : Setujutak hak makan daging babi adalah antara hak asasi bagi rakyat bukan Islam di Kedah ?
Soalan 3 : Mengikut apa yang saya faham ,DAP Kedah dan juga masyarakat bukan Islam di Kedah bukan mempertahankan supaya tempat pemyebelihan itu tidak dirobohkan, tetapi marah atas cara dan masa tempat itu dirobohkan. Tempat baru belum nampak bayang pun tetapi tempat lama yang tunggal itu telah dirobohkan ?
Soalan 4 : Adakah MB Kedah dengan tindakan itu maksudkan rakyat bukan Islam di Kedah tidak berhak makan daging babi ?
Soalan 5 : Apakah masalah sebenarnya---- masalah kekotoran atau masalah tempat pemyebelihan itu sendiri ? Mereka adalah 2 masalah berlainan,walaupun ada perkaitan. Jika masalahnya kekotoran, kenapa tak cari penyelesaian mengatasinya ,sekurang-kurang dalam masa menunggu tempat baru disiapkan ? Sebenarnya semua rakyat bukan Islam termasuk DAP Kedah(saya kira) peka terhadap perkara ini dan ingin memberi kerjasama. Hanya mereka minta tempat baru yang lebih hygenic/sesuai siap dibina terlebih dahulu.
Soalan 6 : Sedarkah PAS Kedah bahawa keyakinan rakyat bukan Islam terhadap PAS baru dapat ditanam/diperolehi selepas kian lama diusahakan oleh PAS, telah musnah dalam masa sekelip mata sahaja oleh tindakan PAS Kedah itu ?
Soalan 7: Untuk PAS: Is En.Azizan the best person to lead PR in Kedah ? I am not too sure about that

DAP Kedah maybe taking a step forward, but at the same time, ten steps backwards.

I believe, many non-Malay/non-Muslims will still support and vote for PAs in Kedah. But will any Malay/Muslims support DAP in Kedah anymore?

DAP claims PAS won because non-Malay support. They may be true. But they also forgot, they, DAP, themselves won many state and parliament seats also because of Malay support.

DAP Kedah is the biggest losers. They deserve to become "opposition forever". LKS should just kick these DAP Kedah fellow out of DAP!

When the pork meat is unavailable, I hope our Chinese Malaysian compatriots will settle for 'humble' chicken-lah. But chicken eaters, please brace up for chicken price increases. It's for a good cause, what!

As myself a chinese, I do agree with u all that DAp Kedah over-acted on the abattoir issue.

Sanitary, surrounding and nuisance to the public warranted definitely a change in location. Whats wrong with that?

We need someone mature enough as our representatives at the upstream, please lah DAP fella, work and talk smart.

Sepatutnya kerajaan BN memberi lesen kepada pusat penyembelehan babi 30 tahun yang lalu dan bukan membiarkan ia beroperasi secara haram. Juga MCA dan Gerakan patut memohon kepada kerajaan Negeri Kedah dimasa itu membena satu tempat penyembelehan babi yang sempurna lagi berseh serta tidak mencemar alam sekitar. Kerajaan Kedah telah memberi tempoh sebulan untuk mencari lokasi yang sesuai untuk tempat penyembelehan babi tapi tak dihiraukan.

Sepatutnya DAP Kedah harus nerujuk kepada Kerajaan Negeri Kedah bagaimana untuk mengatasi masalah ini dan bukan merujuk kepada MCA atau Gerakan. Bila DAP Kedah keluar dari Pakatan Rakyat yang paling seronok ialah MCA dan Gerakan dan ada yang mencadangkan agar DAP keluar terus dari Pakatan Rakyat. Apa jua masalah yang dihadapi dalam Pakatan Rakyat boleh diselesaikan melalui musyawarah.

If the abbatoir is found not on a suitable place, as someone pointed out is now part of the city, then move it by all means, be it for pigs, cows, goats or chickens. For such a small thing DAP can't resolve and sulk, they should not hope to run the country. Such a move is highly iresponsible politically.
