Sudahlah Tu Anwar

Dalam keadaan Malaysia menghadapi cabaran global 3F (fuel, financial & food) cabaran dalaman berlaku dengan amat mencabar apabila Anwar Ibrahim berusaha menumbangkan kerajaan Barisan Nasional yang mendapat kemenangan majoriti oleh rakyat. Sejak bebas dari hukuman penjara Anwar lebih gemar memburukkan musuh - musuh politiknya dan memburukkan institusi Malaysia di mata media asing. Polis, ISA, DEB, kehakiman adalaah antara perkara yang dikritiknya sebegitu buruk tanpa menyedari dia tidak pernah menyatakan masalah ini ketika menjadi orang kuat kerajaan. Terbaru hospital juga dituduh tidak telus apabila dia diminta menyerahkan sampel DNAnya sebagai bahan siasatan kes liwat keatas Saiful.

Indeks BSKL berada dibawah 1000 mata ketika berita ini ditulis

Dalam keadaan politik yang bercempera wakil industri & pelabur asing menghantar laporan kepada HQ & negara asal mereka yang keadaan Malaysia tidak begitu sesuai untuk menambah paburan mereka sekarang. Tunggulah sehingga akhir tahun ini kalau keadaan dah stabil. Oleh kerana gila talak nak jadi PM Anwar tak hiraukan apa kaedah & kesannya. Hatta menawarkan rasuah terhadap ahli parlimen BN. Anwar gagal meyakinkan ahli-ahli parlimen untuk melompat ke Pakatan Rakyat dalam igauan 16 Sept nya. Dalam sidang parlimen 13 okt 08 yang akan datang Anwar akan membuat tindakan luar kotak nya; undi tak percaya kepada PM. Jika Anwar berjaya, saya ingin berkongsi fikiran Datuk Kadir Jasin antaranya

• Anwar memimpin kerajaan yang lemah kerana tidak mampu mendapat 2/3 majority.


• dia perlu buat pilihanraya lebih awal kerana dia sentiasa dihantui spekulasi dia hanya meng-hijack kerajaan BN


• MP yang melompat akan bersifat dummy - akhirnya akan berfikir untuk menyertai BN semula. Dummy disini bukan ertinya bodoh tetapi dalam syarat Karnough Map ertiya boleh bersifat 2 keadaan (PR @ BN).

Anwar juga akan menghadapi tentangan agresif dari penyokong BN kerana tindakannya yang tidak bermoral. Apa pun kita bertenang, berdoa & bersabar menanti berita gembira

Anwar Plays A Waiting Game In Malaysia
By Anil Netto
PENANG - Malaysia's political opposition insists its plan to topple Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi's government is still on track, as doubts emerge about the credibility of those claims after it missed two self-set deadlines for ushering in political change. Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim had set September 16, Malaysia's national day, as the deadline for his People's Alliance coalition to take over the federal government through parliamentary defections to his camp. When that deadline passed, with Anwar claiming he had the required number of parliamentary defections secured, he set a new September 23 deadline for Abdullah to call an emergency sitting of parliament to hold a no-confidence motion he claimed would bring down the government. Abdullah has ridiculed those calls and refused Anwar's request to meet so that the latter can show him a purported list of parliamentarians who have committed to leave the coalition government and join forces with the opposition. Anwar has repeatedly told the press that his alliance has the minimum 31 defections he needs to secure a simple majority in parliament, though he has declined to reveal the names of the turncoat parliamentarians. The only snag, from his perspective, is that Abdullah will delay reconvening the legislature to debate a no-confidence motion on his rule. The political uncertainty is starting to take a toll on the economy and investor confidence. Foreign direct investment flows had already turned negative for 2007 for the first time in the country's 50-year history, according to the 2008 United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) World Investment Report, released this week. Inflation hit a 27-year high of 8.5% in August, adding fuel to the population's discontent with the United Malays Nasional Organization (UMNO)-led government. Abdullah has repeatedly accused Anwar of causing instability and undermining the economy. Anwar has countered that the economic problems stem from Abdullah's failure to introduce meaningful economic reforms. Anwar now needs to tread a delicate constitutional line if he wants to avoid giving an already jittery ruling coalition a pretext for striking back through a more forceful crackdown. This month, an opposition politician, a journalist and an anti-government blogger were all detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA), which allows for indefinite detention without trial. The opposition leader is now believed to have two political options: seek an audience with the Agong, Malaysia's paramount constitutional monarch, or wait for parliament to reconvene as scheduled from its recess on October 13. Finding that his path to power is strewn with obstacles, Anwar has not committed to any new deadlines for a change in government. The state-influenced mainstream media have ridiculed the passing of his previous deadlines and some feel those missed marks have damaged his credibility. Others more sympathetic to the opposition charge point out that it will not be easy to dislodge the UMNO-led coalition, which has held power for 51 years, during which time it has blurred the lines between party and government. Anwar's proponents say that September 16 heralded the beginning of a political transition that eventually will lead to UMNO's demise. Intra-party turmoilTwo crucial dates now loom: October 9, when regional divisions of UMNO begin to nominate candidates for top party posts that will be up for grabs during the party's December internal elections, and October 13, when parliament is scheduled to reconvene. Under siege within his own party after the ruling coalition suffered a major setback at March general elections and now held responsible for a listless economy, Abdullah finds himself in an increasingly tight political spot. He recently hammered out a transition plan to hand over power to his deputy, Najib Abdul Razak, by 2010. He has since indicated he could leave earlier, and in an apparent move to appease his deputy he swapped portfolios with him, handing finance to Najib while Abdullah took over defense. Whether the ambitious Najib, who has been dogged by allegations linking him to the murder of a Mongolian woman, which he has denied, will be content with the minor reshuffle is still unclear. Despite the transition plan, there appears to be a groundswell of sentiment within UMNO that would prefer Abdullah to leave much sooner than he would prefer. The party has called an emergency supreme council meeting for Friday, sparking fresh speculation that change could be in the offing. This sentiment is also coming from some of the reactionary forces within UMNO, which are believed to be inspired by former premier and party leader Mahathir Mohamad. Mahathir formally quit the party in May, but he is now said to be contemplating a return. He was reported to be backing former finance minister Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah's bid for the UMNO presidency, which will be decided in December. Mahathir's son, Mukhriz Mahathir, is also reported to be eyeing the leadership of UMNO's powerful youth wing. He will likely run up against Abdullah's ambitious son-in-law, Khairy Jamaluddin, and former Selangor state chief minister Mohamad Khir Toyo for that post. The political transition could speed up if Abdullah fails to secure enough nominations for the UMNO presidency from the party's various divisions, whose elections are due to run from October to November. To receive the nomination, he needs to secure the nod from at least 30%, or 58 divisions, of UMNO's 191 party divisions across the country. With his mounting political troubles, not everyone is convinced he can pull it off. Meanwhile, in the midst of the political uncertainty, the arrests and detention without trial of a senior Selangor state government official from the People's Alliance, a Chinese newspaper journalist, the editor of a popular Internet news portal and a blogger have sent a chill down the spines of many Malaysians. Three of them have been released, but Malaysia Today website editor Raja Petra Kamarudin was sent this week to the Kamunting detention camp, where he will serve two years under the renewable order of Home Minister Syed Hamid Albar. The government's use of the ISA against perceived political opponents has sparked outrage among many Malaysians and rare protests among ruling coalition politicians, one of whom quit his position as law minister over the arrests. Raja Petra, whose website commands a huge following, is seen as something of a folk hero in Malaysia for his frequent exposes of official corruption and abuse of power. Some of his readers believe he was detained to give UMNO leaders a break from his widely read criticisms in the run-up to their party polls - though the official reason given was that his articles insulted Islam and were a threat to national security. Malaysians have signed online petitions, mailed greeting cards to detainees, participated in candlelight vigils in public places and flocked to prayer services in several places of worship. The arrests have arguably swung public opinion further against the ruling coalition and Abdullah's fast-waning moral authority. Whether Anwar's alliance can capitalize on that sentiment and establish a new reformist government could be determined by UMNO's and Abdullah's next moves.

Akhirnya Kesan Krisis Subprima Merebak keEropah

3 hari ni dilaporkan beberapa bank diEropah mula terkesan dengan krisis subprima. Tamparan dari sikap tamak mereka mendakwa keadaan terkawal. Walaupun undian terbaru Senat Kongres US bersetuju dengan bantuan menyelamat, dipihak sebelah lain pula menyindir Senat dengan slogan We Broke It You Fix It. Terbaru UniBank Itali diselamatkan oleh kerajaan. Bradford & Bentley diselamatkan oleh UK, Dexia diselamatkan oleh Belgium, Luxembourg & France. Fortis UK juga menerima nasib yang sama. Diramalkan 100 bank diUS bakal gulung tikar jika tiada pelan menyelamat.
Seharusnya pengurus bank ini memikir semula sikap tamak mereka apabila melibatkan diri dengan kegiatan subprima - lintah darat. Untuk meneruskan finance mereka harus berkorban termasuk momotong gaji dan elaun mereka. Sistem lintah darat pula perlu kembali kepada sistem yang lebih adil supaya faedah akan berbalik kepada rakyat. Obviously mereka menekan peminjam (rakyat) yang tersepit memerlukan bantuan. Dengan mengenakan syarat pinjaman yang longgar, premium tinggi, faedah 15% sehingga 40% bank memancing peminjam yang berisiko. Peminjam yang tidak berkemampuan menghadapi faedah yang tinggi kerap kali gagal menjelaskan pinjaman. Bank menarik cagaran / gadaian peminjam (kereta, tanah, rumah dsb). Dengan susutnya nilai hartanah menyulitkan bank membuat lelongan. Akhirnya bank menyimpan terlalu banyak stok likat dan rendah pula stok cair (liquidity). Ulasan saya bakal bersambung di masa akan datang InsyaAllah.

Europe's Financial Crisis Spreads
Bradford & Bingley is the second bank the UK government has nationalised this year [AFP]
European governments have announced a flurry of bank bail-outs - but the rescue deals have only heightened fears that the contagion from the US credit crisis has much further to run.
Stock markets fell heavily and money markets remained frozen as banks continued to refuse to lend to each other on Monday, hours before US politicians rejected a $700bn bail-out package.
As US politicians debated the rescue of their own banks, the governments of Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg took partial control late on Sunday of struggling bank Fortis NV, while Britain seized control of mortgage lender Bradford & Bingley early on Monday.
Germany organized a credit lifeline for blue-chip commercial real estate lender Hypo Real Estate Holding AG, while Iceland's government took over Glitnir bank, the country's third-largest lender.
Howard Archer, the chief European economist at Global Insight, an economics research company, said: "We live in vicious times.
"In the near term, it will be the weak ones that will be picked off.
"But, obviously, the more the turmoil and dislocation continues, the further this could spread."
Market plunges Despite the concerted attempt by European authorities to shore-up confidence, stock markets closed down heavily on Monday.
The London Stock Exchange FTSE 100 dropped 5.3 per cent, Germany's DAX fell 4.23 per cent and France's CAC 40 shed 5.04 per cent
The series of bail-outs began over the weekend when Fortis, the Dutch-Belgian banking giant, was partially nationalised.
The $16.4bn rescue package was organised by the governments of Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, after investor confidence in Fortis disappeared last week.
Reflecting the seriousness of the bail-out, Jean-Claude Trichet, the European Central Bank president, attended the negotiations in Brussels.
In the UK, the government took over Bradford & Bingley's $91bn of mortgage and loans and paid out $33bn to facilitate the sale of its savings business, including its entire retail branch network, to Spain's Banco Santander.
It is the second bank that the British government has had to nationalise this year.
Collapse fears
In Iceland, the government took control of Glitnir bank, buying a 75 per cent stake for $878m.
David Oddsson, the chairman of the country's central bank, said the bank, which has operations in 10 countries, would have collapsed if the authorities had not intervened.
Meanwhile, in Germany, Hypo Real Estate Holding AG, the country's number two commercial property lender, was forced to secure a line of credit of up to $51.2bn.
Analysts are closely watching Dexia, a French-Belgian specialist in lending to local governments, that ran up huge losses in its US operations.
The bank had no comment on a report it was planning a rapid capital increase but said the board would meet Monday night to assess the situation.
Yves LeTerme, Belgium's prime minister, called a cabinet meeting on Monday to discuss the company's future.


Europe Fights To Calm Markets
Madrid's IBEX stock market fell amid continuing uncertainty in Europe[AFP]
Governments across Europe have continued to prop up the battered financial sector, with Dexia, the Belgian-French financial services group, receiving more than $9bn from the Belgian, French and Luxembourg treasuries.
Facing the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, global central banks scrambled again on Tuesday to try to relieve a severe squeeze in money markets by more than doubling the amount of funding to $620 billion.
In Ireland, the government announced a blanket guarantee for savings held by its banks, covering up to $575bn in liabilities.
France, which had joined Belgium and Luxembourg in offering the lifeline to Dexia, which has run up huge losses in its US operations, said it would come to the aid of savers with new bank measures by the end of the week.
Shares in the bank, which specialises in lending to local governments, had fallen 30% on Monday before being suspended on Tuesday as the rescue plan was announced.
'Market meltdown'
Nicolas Sarkozy, the French president, began talks on the global crisis with finance executives on Tuesday and said he will meet this week with officials from Europe's other G8 member states, Germany, Britain and Italy to discuss the issue.
Dariusz Kowalczyk, the chief strategist at broker CFC Seymour, said: "Market meltdown is likely to continue unless an alternative [US] plan is passed, which may or may not happen this week."
Seeking to reassure investors, Christian Noyer, a European central bank governing council member, said: "There is no reason to be frightened and to give in to panic.
"I don't say there won't be things that will appear in the accounts that are published in the next weeks or months, but there is no drama in front of us."
The French government said the bailout was necessary to "guarantee continuity of funding for local authorities".
Trading suspended
Across Europe, stock markets remained volatile after a $700bn financial bailout plan in the United States was rejected by the House of Representatives.
The Frankfurt exchange was down 1.37 per cent in afternoon trading on Tuesday, the Paris CAC 40 had shed 0.51 per cent, the Madrid IBEX had fallen 1.09 per cent and the Moscow RTS was down 0.92 per cent.
After initially plunging on opening, London's FTSE 100 recovered and oscillated between a loss of three per cent and a gain of 0.77 throughout the day.
In Russia, the Moscow stock market was briefly suspended seconds after trading began, the second time the measure has had to be taken in a month.
The Kremlin also announced it was placing a ban on the short-selling of shares.

Retorik Israel Terbaru Israel

Perdana Menteri Israel yang bakal meletak jawatan atas dakwaan merasuah, Ehud Olmert menegaskankan perlunya Rejim berundur dari Tanah Palestin dalam usaha mencapai perdamaian dengan Palestin. Sebelum ini Olmert berulang kali dengan angkuhnya meneruskan perluasan kuasa rejim tanpa menghirau langsung isu Pelan Damai. Canselor Jerman, Angela Merkel pernah mengunjungi Tel Aviv & menggesa rejim berundur sebagai usaha ampuh kearah perdamaian. Dalam sidang media yang sama Olmert menegaskan usaha rejim adalah semata-mata kerana negara Israel & rakyatnya. Jelas dilihat polemik terbaru Olmert ini menyerupai mana-mana Presiden Amerika dalam membincangkan masalah Israel -Palestin; memulakan usaha apabila legasi pemerintahan mereka berakhir. Di era Bush, Rundingan Annapolis diadakan diakhir tahun Bush memerintah. Lama sebelum ini, Yitzak Rabin menandatangani Perjanjian Oslo yang menyatakan rejim akan menyerahkan kembali Tanah Palestin yang diduduki. Akhirnya Rabin mati ditembak.

Olmert Advocates Israeli Pullouts Olmert stepped down on September 21 amid corruption allegations [AFP]
Ehud Olmert, Israel's outgoing prime minister, has said that Israel will have to leave much of east Jerusalem and allow Palestinians to form a state equal in size to the area of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.In an interview with the Yediot Ahronot newspaper, published on Monday, Olmert also said that peace with Syria would require withdrawal from the Golan Heights.
"[I am saying] what no previous Israeli leader has ever said: we should withdraw from almost all of the territories, including in East Jerusalem and in the Golan Heights," he was quoted as saying.Olmert resigned on September 21 amid corruption allegations and will officially step down once a new government has been formed.
Olmert and Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president, agreed at a meeting in the United States last November to push for a comprehensive peace deal before the end of the year.Yediot Ahronot noted that the remarks in its "legacy interview" go further than any the prime minister made before he effectively became a lame duck in September."I am not trying to justify retroactively what I did for 35 years. For a large portion of these years, I was unwilling to look at reality in all its depth," Olmert said."A decision has to be made. This decision is difficult, terrible, a decision that contradicts our natural instincts, our innermost desires, our collective memories, the prayers of the Jewish people for 2,000 years."Stalled talksPeace talks between the two sides have stalled over the borders of a future Palestinian state, the future status of Jerusalem and the right to return of Palestinian refugees.The construction of new Jewish settlements in the West Bank and Arab East Jerusalem, which Palestinians see as the capital of a future state, have also proved to be a major obstacle.
"I'd like see if there is one serious person in the State of Israel who believes it is possible to make peace with the Syrians without eventually giving up the Golan Heights"
Ehud Olmert, Israeli prime ministerAccording to Western and Palestinian officials, Olmert has previously proposed an Israeli withdrawal from some 93 per cent of the occupied West Bank. Israel pulled out of the Gaza Strip in 2005.
In exchange for settlement enclaves, Olmert has suggested handing over a desert territory adjacent to the Gaza Strip, as well as land on which to build a transit corridor between Gaza and the West Bank."We will leave a percentage of these territories in our hands, but will have to give the Palestinians a similar percentage, because without that there will be no peace," Olmert said in Tuesday's interview.Olmert has previously argued that the issue of Jerusalem be considered at a later date because the difficulties in reaching an agreement.But on Tuesday he said that giving up parts of the city was critical to securing Israel's security."Whoever wants to hold on to all of the city's territory will have to bring 270,000 Arabs inside the fences of sovereign Israel. It won't work," he said.Concrete offerSaeb Erakat, a senior adviser to Abbas, said Israel must "translate these statements into reality" if it is serious about wanting to achieve a peace deal. "We haven't seen these statements translated into a piece of paper, into a concrete offer," he told the AFP news agency, stressing that "the road to peace is through ending the occupation and [Israeli] settlements in the West Bank".During his time in office, Olmert reopened indirect negotiations, through Turkey, with Syria after an eight-year freeze.
"I'd like see if there is one serious person in the State of Israel who believes it is possible to make peace with the Syrians without eventually giving up the Golan Heights," he said in the interview.Israel annexed the territory in 1981, a move never recognised by the world community. More than 18,000 Syrians, mostly Druze, are left from the Golan's original population of 150,000 people. The region now is home to nearly 20,000 Jewish settlers.

Masalah Kewangan Merebak ke UK

Masalah kewangan yang ditunjang krisis subprima mula menunjukkan kesan diEngland. Kerajaan mengumumkan untuk mengambil alih Bradford and Bingley, pemain hartanah & bank ke-9 terbesar di UK. Sejumlah $44bn (£24bn) simpanan kerajaan & 200 cawangan akan dijual & $92bn (£50bn) pinjaman dalam rundingan untuk dimilik negarakan. Berita lanjut dari Aljazeera

UK 'to Nationalise' Mortgage Lender
Bradford and Bingley announced the cutting of 370 jobs last week [AFP]
The UK government is reported to be preparing to nationalise Bradford and Bingley, the country's ninth-biggest mortgage provider.
Britain's Treasury was conducting talks on Sunday aimed at rescuing the bank and said Alistar Darling, the finance minister, said he would make a statement before stock markets begin trading a day later.
The bank's $44bn (£24bn) savings business and 200 branches could be sold off and $92bn (£50bn) of loans nationalised under plans being discussed, the BBC reported.
The Treasury had preferred a buyout from the private sector but no buyers were forthcoming due to the ongoing global economic crisis and slowing UK housing market, it reported.
Yvette Cooper, the treasury minister, said: "We are very clear that depositors and ordinary savers must be properly protected and they will be as part of the arrangements we will set out."
Negotiations ongoing
Cooper said that negotiations, between the Treasury, the Financial Services Authority industry watchdog and the Bank of England, were continuing and that Whitehall was aiming to ensure the financial stability of the banking system.
Tony McGarahan, a Bradford and Bingley spokesman, said: "We can assure customers that their deposits are safe with Bradford and Bingley."
Bradford and Bingley's shares have collapsed amid a property market downturn and falling markets engendered by mortgages given to insecure debtors in the US.
Fears were also raised that Bradford and Bingley could become another Northern Rock, the first UK bank to be nationalised after the funding crisis in February linked to the US home loans turmoil.
Losses
The BBC reported that Bradford and Bingley's mortgage book could be merged with Northern Rock.
The Treasury said that Barclays, the British bank, Spain's Santander and the worldwide HSBC were potential buyers of the bank's branches.
Bradford and Bingley specialises in mortgages for investors buying homes in order to rent them out.
The government negotiated the takeover of HBOS, the UK's largest home lender, by rival Lloyds TSB earlier this month.
Bradford & Bingley had announced on Thursday that 370 employees would lose their jobs in a bid to save $28m (£15m).
In August, the bank revealed net losses of $32m (£17m) for the first half of 2008, attributing them to "turbulence in the banking and housing sectors."

Six powers agree on Iran resolution

Hai Cik Condo... Jaga negara awak yang da nak muflis kan lagi baik. Jangan sibuk-sibuk lagi negara orang. Resolusi terbaru ini tidak pula mengenakan sekatan pusingan keempat keatas Iran. 6 negara tersebut ialah China, Russia, UK, USA, Prancis, & German. Presiden Mahmoud Ahamenijad menegaskan pengayaan uranium ini bertujuan menjana kuasa elektrik. Milibant, Setiausaha Negara UK berkata cadangan ini sudah dihantar kepada 15 negara anggota Majlis Keselamatan dan akan dibahas tak berapa lama lagi.

Six powers agree on Iran resolution

Rice said the agreement aimed to show unity not against Iran, but for Russia [AFP]
Six world powers have agreed on a draft resolution on Iran's nuclear programme, which did not include new sanctions, in line with Russia's insistence, senior US and European officials have said.
David Miliband, the British Foreign Secretary, told reporters that the six powers had agreed to submit the draft text to the 15-nation UN Security Council for discussions on Friday.
A vote could come on Saturday.
According to a text seen by Reuters news agency, the 10-line draft resolution would call on Iran to "fully comply, without delay" with previous council resolutions, which demand that it halt enriching uranium.
It also urges Iran to meet the requirements of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) board of governors.
Condoleezza Rice, the US secretary of state, said the resolution aimed, not to impose new sanctions against Tehran, but rather to show unity after disagreements with Russia over its invasion of Georgia.
"It's also especially important that the Iranians recognise that the P5 plus one process is intact," Rice told Reuters in an interview, referring to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council - the UK, China, France, Russia and the United States - plus Germany.
The P5 plus one powers are seeking to persuade Iran to halt its suspected pursuit of a nuclear weapon.
The United States and Europeans had wanted a fourth round of sanctions on Iran, which refuses to halt nuclear enrichment work.
China and Russia oppose further sanctions.
Miliband said the text "reaffirms existing resolutions that are on the UN books."
Although the draft resolution has no new penalties, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German foreign minister, told reporters that the text "does not rule them out either".
Integral player
The meeting on Iran was originally scheduled for Thursday, but it was postponed after Russia withdrew to protest US criticism of its invasion of Georgia.
Rice told the Security Council she wanted to take up threats made by Ahmadinejad [AFP]Russian diplomats said Moscow was letting the West know it could not be sidelined on issues like Iran where it is a key player.
Separately, Rice told the Security Council that she wants it to take up threats against Israel made by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president.
Rice said his comments that the Jewish state "should be wiped from the face of the map, should be destroyed and should not exist" were unacceptable.
Tehran insists its nuclear programme aims to produce electricity and refuses to halt its enrichment programme. In a defiant speech to the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, Ahmadinejad vowed to resist US "bullying".
Miliband said the UN nuclear watchdog had failed to get sufficient co-operation from Tehran in its investigation of allegations that Iran conducted research on an atomic weapon.
In June, the six powers gave Iran a beefed-up offer of political and economic incentives, including nuclear reactors, in exchange for a suspension of its enrichment programme.
Tehran says enrichment is a sovereign right it will never renounce.
Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, said on Friday it was not the time to consider any new sanctions on Iran.

We "continue to believe that it is not timely to consider at the ministerial or at any other level this proposal of new sanctions," Lavrov told a news conference at the United Nations.

Eurocopter awarded tender to replace Nuri

Published: 2008/09/27

THE Defence Ministry has agreed to acquire new helicopters from European helicopter manufacturers, Eurocopter, to replace the Nuri, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi announced yesterday. He said the ministry was now scrutinising the clauses in the agreement before signing it officially with the company concerned.“I have been told that the Defence Ministry has identified Eurocopter as the replacement for Nuri. “The Defence Ministry had received many applications from international aircraft manufacturers and suppliers,” Abdullah, who is also the Defence Minister, told reporters after attending a special briefing at Wisma Pertahanan, Jalan Padang Tembak, Kuala Lumpur.
On Sept 17, Abdullah handed over the post of Finance Minister to Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and took over the Defence Ministry. Abdullah had once held the Defence Minister’s post from 1986 to 1987 - Bernama
