BN Govt Can Easily Solve Problems Of Any Race, Says Pak Lah. Then Why Are So Many M'sians Unhappy?

The Barisan Nasional (BN) government can easily solve problems of the multiracial populace of the country as the BN is a party for all races, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said today.

He said the government governing the nation was a multiracial coalition government that constantly worked to maintain racial harmony, peace, prosperity and safety of the people.

"The BN government functions on the basis of consultation and consensus. This is a multiracial, united and collaborative coalition government," he said when addressing a farmers' gathering at Kampung Baru Coldstream, near here.

Abdullah said the Cabinet comprising ministers representing diverse races discussed together problems that surfaced and planned ahead to transform Malaysia into a peaceful and prosperous nation.

Abdullah, who is also BN chairman, said the BN government understood the aspirations of the various races who wanted to live in a peaceful and safe country.

At the event, the Prime Minister handed offer letters for a 15-year land lease to 211 farmers from Kampung Baru Coldstream in place of the yearly renewal of land lease under the temporary occupation licence (TOL).

They are among 931 Chinese farmers who were planting vegetables and fruits illegally on government land or under TOL in six areas in Perak.

Abdullah said the farmers who received the land lease were a happy lot now that the problem they faced over the status of their farming land was now over.

"This is an example of how the state and federal governments settle the people's problems. With the cooperation of BN component party leaders, the Menteri Besar (Datuk Seri Mohamed Tajol Rosli Ghazali), (MCA president) Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting and (Datuk) Ong Ka Chuan (MCA secretary-general) this problem has been solved amicably," he said.

The Prime Minister said farmers in Ulu Yam, Selangor, also faced similar problem before but was settled smoothly with the cooperation of BN leaders.

Abdullah said the agriculture sector would continue to receive incentives and support from the government as it was a crucial sector producing food items for the people," he said.

"Now, the farmers don't need to worry... 15 years, plus another 15 years, to plant vegetables, everybody is happy," added the Prime Minister to the applause of the audience. (Bernama)

***** I firmly believe that this BN government can easily solve a major portion of the problems that beset us perennially. However I also feel that they will not do so for petty political reasons. Sad really.

More peanuts...931 farmers vs how many FELDA settlers? Ha ha ha....As the GE approaches Pak Lah statements become increasingly absurd.

But I do agree with you that if BN chooses to, they can prob solve most of our countries' problems. but as it's not in the interest of UMNO, why bother?

Sadly, our UMNO leaders are not guided by a spirit of public service but still stuck in the pits of feudalism.

easier said than done. just ask any man in the street, what has the govt done to solve problems of races, the answer is that the govt is never sincere in solving problems of any race. Why solve it when it can be a powerful tool to manipulate the sentiment of the Malays by using NEP, special right, ....? The minorities are asking for too much, "UMNO can rfule the nation by itself." said some UMNOputras.

Your title says it all.

Your opinion paragraph poses the relevant question.

As for the farmers, regardless of race, the govt should be encouraging them to continue as they play an important part for the country's economic well-being. Repeat - regardless of race !
