BN Kedah sedang perinci manifesto untuk PRN

ALOR SETAR: Barisan Nasional (BN) Kedah sedang memperincikan manifestonya sebagai tawaran kepada rakyat negeri itu dalam menghadapi Pilihan Raya Negeri (PRN) yang akan diadakan tidak lama lagi.

Pengerusi Badan Perhubungan UMNO Kedah Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid berkata BN akan memastikan semua perkara dalam manifesto yang ditawarkan itu praktikal dan boleh dilaksana serta diuruskan dengan kadar segera demi kesejahteraan rakyat Kedah.

"Kita telah bincang manifesto baharu bagi memastikan slogan 'Kalih Bagi Sama' (tukar bagi sama) dapat dicapai. Buat masa ini, ia masih belum boleh maklumkan lagi kerana sedang diperincikan berikutan ia baharu sahaja dibentangkan dalam mesyuarat tadi.

"Tapi, manifesto ini akan merangkumi semua aspek termasuk berkaitan pendidikan, ekonomi, kesejahteraan kepada golongan belia, wanita termasuk masyarakat India, Cina dan Siam," katanya kepada pemberita pada sidang media di sini, hari ini.

Sementara itu, Mahdzir berkata susun atur kerja di setiap kawasan kerusi Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) juga telah dibincangkan, yang jentera BN akan menjadi barisan hadapan di kawasan yang ditandingi parti itu dan akan membantu calon PH di kawasan yang ditandingi parti gabungan itu.

Consider This: Transnational Repression (Part 2) — Are Our Governments Enabling It?

Authoritarian regimes don’t stop at their own borders—often reaching across countries to track, detain, and deport refugees, activists, and migrants. This is transnational repression: when a state extends its repression beyond its own beyond their borders to control or punish its citizens abroad. Malaysia and Thailand, two of Southeast Asia’s biggest hubs for migrants and refugees, have become key battlegrounds for transnational repression. With Malaysia helming ASEAN chair this year, what role does the region play in resisting, or enabling, transnational repression? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Krittaporn Semsantad, Programme Director at the Bangkok-based Peace Rights Foundation.
