Khalid Samad

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 31 — Cousins Khalid Samad and Datuk Zaini Ismail are both the same age as Malaysia and share the same Malaysian dream; but their methods to seeing it come true could not be more different. “We want a nation that is developing at a sustainable rate and everyone gets a fair share and we all live in peace and harmony,” says Khalid, a PAS politician and MP for Shah Alam whose birthday falls in the Merdeka month.

Ramadhan has always been a busy month for me. With over 100 Mosques and Suraus in Shah Alam, my evenings, nights and even dawn prayers are packed with programs. I try to go to all the Mosques and Suraus but it is obviously impossible to do. Nonetheless I do try and I may have some 50% covered by the end of the month.

Ahli Parlimen Shah Alam, Khalid Samad meminta umat Islam mengasingkan adat dan hukum hakam agama dalam menilai perbuatan seseorang baik sesama Islam mahupun bukan Islam. Bagi beliau, kegagalan berbuat demikian hanya akan menjejaskan kemurniaan Islam di mata masyarakat bukan Islam yang seharusnya diajak mendekati agama samawi ini.

Yang Dipertua PAS Shah Alam, Khalid Samad berkata, Noh yang juga Menteri Pertanian tidak sedar bahawa perkara dibangkitkan tersebut seperti meludah ke muka sendiri.

Oleh Frederick Luccas ( suara-keadilan.com ) SHAH ALAM 24 Ogos - Jentera propaganda Umno-Barisan Nasional bekerja lebih masa setiap hari menghambur pelbagai fitnah dan tohmahan terhadap Pakatan Rakyat untuk meraih sokongan rakyat namun malangnya segala taktik kotor mereka telah lama dihidu dan disedari rakyat negara ini. Ahli Parlimen Shah Alam, Khalid Samad berkata Umno-BN tidak ada lagi pilihan melainkan menabur fitnah secara berterusan hatta dalam bulan Ramadhan yang mulia sekali pun.

Dua tokoh parti yang 'bermusuh', Ketua Pemuda Umno Khairy Jamaluddin dan ahli biro politik PAS Khalid Samad - yang terkenal dengan kelantangan masing-masing - akan dipertemukan lagi dalam sebuah forum Ahad ini.

By Neville Spykerman ( The Malaysian Insider ) SHAH ALAM, Aug 18 — Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad has warned that Perkasa is deliberately trying to whip up religious and racial tension to give Barisan Nasional (BN) an excuse to use the Internal Security Act (ISA) against the opposition. The Malay rights group has been at the forefront of warning off those who question affirmative action policies for Bumiputeras and recently a Shah Alam church that wanted to hold a Christian play during the Ramadan fasting month. The church had called off the play before Perkasa lodged a report two days ago.

By Yow Hong Chieh ( The Malaysian Insider ) Shah Alam MP Khalid Abdul Samad said the fact that website filtering was even being considered again showed how desperate the BN government was to stay in power. “As far as Internet penetration is concerned... it’s hardly 30 per cent. Even with 30 per cent, they’re finding it hard to handle the issues raised on the Internet,” he said. “I suppose that’s the last option they have if they want to survive the next election.”

SHAH ALAM 14 Ogos - Ahli Parlimen Shah Alam, Khalid Abdul Samad hari ini menyelar Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia (PPIM) yang mendakwa beliau cuba membesarkan operasi pengeluaran minuman keras di negara ini ekoran lawatannya ke kilang minuman keras di sini baru-baru ini. Persatuan itu, ujar beliau, tidak seharusnya mengeluarkan kenyataan sedemikian yang menunjukkan PPIM tidak faham tujuan sebenar beliau mencadangkan tapak di Pelabuhan Klang sebagai alternatif operasi baru kilang itu bagi menggantikan tapak sedia ada di Shah Alam.

By Debra Chong ( The Malaysian Insider ) SHAH ALAM, Aug 11 – PAS’ Khalid Samad challenged today Umno’s Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to openly explain how discounts on luxury properties work in favour of poor Malays, in a bid to win support from his community. “Explain to the rakyat: How does helping rich Malays benefit poor Malays?” the Islamist party’s central committee member demanded, in relation to an ongoing public debate over scrapping the obligatory seven per cent Bumiputra discount for luxury homes costing over half a million ringgit and business properties priced at RM2 million and above.

Tajuk posting saya kali ini barangkali akan memeranjatkan sesetengah pihak. Lanjutan daripada perbincangan berhubung Terminal Bas Shah Alam , saya bersama beberapa Ahli Majlis MBSA telah melawat kilang Carlsberg pada hari Khamis 5 Ogos, jam 3 petang. Kami disambut oleh Dato’ Chin Voon Loong, Timbalan Pengarah Urusan Syarikat berkenaan. Beliau memberikan penjelasan dan latar belakang syarikat serta prestasi perniagaannya semenjak ianya mula beroperasi. Untuk makluman semua, kilang Carlsberg Shah Alam telah mula beroperasi pada tahun 1972, iaitu 38 tahun dahulu. Ia merupakan di antara kilang yang terawal di kawasan tersebut dan semasa ianya dibina, hanya hutan dan belukar di kelilingnya.

On last Sunday, 1st of August, a forum was held on the topic of ‘The Malaysian Political Mind set: Will politics of Ideology trump politics race’ . I was a panelist as was YB Ibrahim Ali and YB Khairy Jamaluddin. Many expected a fiery debate, but as was reported by the Star , it was a ‘civil affair’. Given the circumstances, the time and the atmosphere, that was the only way it could be.
