柔佛前州务大臣Abdul Ghani可以自由进入Ｊｕｒｏｎｇ Ｅａｓｔ展开拉票活动？

神皇

昨天看新加坡的狮城6点半新闻时看到的，柔佛前州务大臣阿都干泥和他的ＢＮ竞选团队可以自由进入新加坡Ｊｕｒｏｎｇ　Ｅａｓｔ展开拉票活动？

我同事下班大约6点多时也在Jurong East Bus Interchange附近看到ＢＮ团队在那里宣传拉票...

之前新加坡车拉上反对党竞选布条引起“新国涉嫌干涉马国内政”风波时，有看到新加坡声明新加坡不会干涉马国政治，也希望“其他国家”不要干涉新加坡的政治。

那么现在狮子国默认允许ＢＮ进入新加坡？ 莫非真的如我同事所说一切只是Ｗａｙａｎｇ？

我想如果是反对党如果进入新加坡展开拉票活动的话，一定会以“安全理由”马上被遣送出境。

高高在上的前柔佛州务大臣，５年后大选期间才“想要”坐巴士要体验“在新加坡工作、每天来回的大马人的情况”。

临时拜票的前州务大臣，这份关心在新工作的大马人的心意，我想大马人尤其是柔佛人真的会很“感激”和“心领”，呵呵，也未免太过小看入新工作的大马人了...

其实要了解每天来回新加坡工作的马劳的感受也不难，最直接、最容易的方式莫过于等你在这一届大选输掉Gelang Patah国席后，成为马劳，每天挤巴士来回地进去新加坡工作，新加坡绝对欢迎你这类有钱的马劳...



Plans for Johor-S'pore rapid transit system in final stages: Abdul Ghani


Outgoing Johor Chief Minister Abdul Ghani Othman says plans for the rapid transit system (RTS) linking Johor and Singapore are in their final stages.



SINGAPORE: Singapore's transport ministry said the architectural and engineering consultancy study for the Rapid Transit System (RTS) linking Johor and Singapore is currently on-going, and its first phase is nearing completion.

The Joint Ministerial Committee (JMC) for Iskandar Malaysia (IM) will then decide on the option for the RTS Link to be further studied as part of the second phase of the study.

Both countries have agreed for both sides to co-locate their Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facilities at both the Singapore and Johor Bahru (JB) stations, so that cross-border commuters on the RTS Link need to clear immigration only once at either station.

This means that those who are taking the RTS Link from Woodlands in Singapore will clear both Singapore and Malaysian Customs before boarding the train and need not clear again when they arrive at JB.

A similar arrangement will also be in place for those from JB taking the RTS Link into Singapore.

Meanwhile, outgoing Johor Chief Minister Abdul Ghani Othman on Thursday took his electoral fight to Singapore - by taking a bus down to meet factory workers in the Republic.

Mr Abdul Ghani travelled by bus from Gelang Patah in Johor to Jurong East bus interchange in Singapore.

It was his first time travelling on the Causeway Link bus and he noted that the journey took more than an hour.

The Chief Minister wanted to experience what it was like for Malaysians who travel to Singapore daily.

And he said commuting will be more efficient once the Rapid Transit System is ready.

He said: "A lot more people can be moved with the RTS. The capacity with be enough, the speed will be fast enough, and people will be moved into Singapore and back more efficiently.

"So, that will definitely reduce congestion as a result of the daily usage of the causeway or the second link."

The Rapid Transit System is aimed at enhancing connectivity between the two countries.

It will also be integrated with public transport services in both Johor Baru and Singapore.

Some 100,000 workers in Johor commute to Singapore every day. To help commuters move more speedily, there is a possibility of making the CIQ  facilities more efficient.

Caretaker Chief Minister Abdul Ghani Othman is suggesting to have a single CIQ complex for both countries.

He said: “Of course it should be enhanced with a joint CIQ; if that takes place then it will achieve the most optimum objective of an RTS."

In Sunday's general elections, Mr Abdul Ghani is contesting the parliamentary seat of Gelang Patah against the Democratic Action Party's Lim Kit Siang.

And as the campaign draws to a close, he remains upbeat about his chances.

“There is very solid support in some (groups), improvement in support from some other sources, at the same time there is sufficient support from elsewhere," he said.

There are 26 federal and 56 state seats at stake in Johor, which is seen as Barisan Nasional's stronghold.

But the opposition has set its sights on Johor in this election and sent its big players to contest in the state.

Abdul Ghani takes Gelang Patah fight to S’pore

Teo Xuanwei - 7 hours 53 min ago

JOHOR BARU — In a rare move by a Malaysian politician, caretaker Johor Mentri Besar Abdul Ghani Othman yesterday took his campaign across the Causeway when he made a surprise trip on board the Causeway Link public bus from Gelang Patah to Jurong East Bus Terminal. Along the journey, which took more than an hour, Mr Abdul Ghani, 67, interacted with Malaysians going to Singapore to work.

The trip, which came just three days before Malaysians head to the ballot box on Sunday, prompted his rival, Democratic Action Party stalwart Lim Kit Siang, to declare that he, too, might take his campaign to Singapore, where hundreds of thousands of Malaysians — including many Johoreans — reside.

The high profile match-up between the two men has been dubbed by Malaysian media as “the mother of all battles”.

Mr Abdul Ghani took the opportunity yesterday to announce that Malaysia and Singapore are in the final stages of their plans on the proposed Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link. “Before year-end, I would imagine both governments will decide on the type of RTS to be implemented with the scheduled completion by 2018,” he told reporters at Jurong East Bus Terminal.

Noting that Malaysians who work in Singapore go through a long but convenient journey, Mr Abdul Ghani reiterated the need to explore a single Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) complex to smoothen cross-border movement.

Responding to media queries, Singapore’s Ministry of Transport (MOT) said the first phase of the architectural and engineering consultancy study for the RTS was “nearing completion”.

The Joint Ministerial Committee for Iskandar Malaysia would decide on the option for the RTS Link to be further examined as part of the second phase of the study, an MOT spokesperson said.

She added that Singapore and Malaysia have agreed to “co-locate their CIQ facilities at both the Singapore and Johor Baru stations, so that cross-border commuters on the RTS Link need to clear immigration only once at either station”.


‘NO LACK OF JOB OPPORTUNITIES’ IN MALAYSIA

During his bus journey, Mr Abdul Ghani asked some of the Malaysian workers why they wanted to work in the Republic. He told reporters that, based on his observations, the “main reason” was because of the strong Singapore dollar (S$1 = RM2.47). “It is not on the basis of the levels of income ... but more of the income after the exchange rate is taken into account,” said Mr Abdul Ghani.

Neither was it “a question of a lack of job opportunities”, he said, adding that the Iskandar region will create 500,000 more jobs over the next five to eight years.

During campaigning, the opposition has regularly raised the question of why Malaysians chose to work and study in Singapore. The opposition cited this as evidence that the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition has not fulfilled Malaysia’s economic potential.

Johoreans working in Singapore whom TODAY spoke to agreed that there are enough jobs in Malaysia. However, there is a lack of good jobs, particularly those that can pay them as well as those in Singapore, they said. They also pointed to Malaysia’s abundance of natural resources and asked why its economy seemed to be lagging further behind Singapore’s, citing the ringgit’s slide against the Singapore dollar over the years.

Mr Toh Yang Fan, 27, who ditched his carpenter job in Batu Pahat three years ago to work as a supervisor in an exhibitions set-up company in Singapore, said that what he was earning previously was not enough to cover his expenses. “Now I’m earning about double (of what I used to earn), but I am away from my wife,” he said.

Some Malaysians also claimed that race is a factor when it comes to career progression in their country.

A 31-year-old Chinese market researcher who declined to be named said “the opportunities and recognition you can get (in Singapore) is something you’ll never get in Malaysia”.

Those who work in Singapore also noted that Malaysia’s living environment paled in comparison.

Said Mr Roslan Mohd, 55: “In Singapore, no policemen (on the streets), you still feel safe. Here, got policemen or not, not much difference.” Ms Kelly Ee, a 29-year-old recruitment specialist, added: “It’s safer, cleaner, more orderly, better schools, more shopping centres. You can’t even compare.”

Political analysts believe that Malaysians who regularly experience life across the Causeway have a different mindset compared to their compatriots who live and work in Malaysia.

University of Malaya law professor Azmi Sharom said that the former would be “more concerned about bigger issues, such as the direction the country is heading instead of bread and butter, day-to-day issues”.

He said: “The conditions of the roads don’t bother them, for example. They will likely look at matters of principle instead of pragmatic concerns; things like type of government, system of governance, human rights and equal treatment.”

Mr Ibrahim Suffian, Programme Director of the independent think-tank Merdeka Centre, felt that the ruling coalition would have its work cut out to woo these voters. They have “already voted with their feet by working outside of Malaysia”, he noted.

你再看2楼的图片，后面就是他的儿子媳妇，穿的T-shirt，很明显是政党拉票宣传活动啊...

其实我心里也明白新加坡不大愿意看到改朝换代后彼岸的繁荣兴盛，但是实在好奇新加坡的内政部长对这件事情有什么“看法”...

还是，diam diam不出声，毕竟这位前柔佛州务大臣要过来新加坡没有理由不事先暗地里通知李总理...

新加坡方面应该不敢铺红地毯、打锣打鼓欢迎他进来，只是只眼睁只眼闭装作不知情，不然等下变成政治宣传拉票活动，新加坡政府不懂怎样解释，又不敢得罪这位前州务大臣，还真让人家以为新加坡双重标准了...
