Zaid”报道的华文译稿。全文如下(文内小标题为《人民之友》编者所加,原文全文刊于文末)——
再益表示希望不会再有土著经济大会
拿督再益依布拉欣在脸书发帖表示:“土著经济大会结束让人松了口气。让我们祈祷不会再有另一场大会了。”
“我们需要的是马来西亚经济大会。一个诚实的大会,代表所有认真寻求解救国家问题方案的马来西亚人。”
这位前法律部长举了渔民困境的例子来说明。
巨额经费花了, 渔民农民仍然最贫困
再益说,自1970年以来,政府在渔业方面已花了近800亿令吉,但仍有超过10万名渔民还是处于我国的最贫困地位。
他表示,除此之外,还有约30万名稻农的问题,尽管政府已在该领域投入了数十亿令吉,但他们的每月收入还不到1,000令吉。
“生产力越来越低,我们永远无法达到2030年设定的80%自给自足的目标。我们需要找到答案。”
我国因贪腐而损失了2.6万亿令吉
再益还表示,一些经济学家估计,过去40年,马来西亚因贪污腐败而损失了2.6万亿令吉。
“我们对一两个超级富豪家族涉嫌贪污腐败展开调查,并自欺欺人地认为从现在起一切都好,我们的系统一尘不染,这还不够吗?
“人们想知道漏洞在哪里,以及如何堵住它们,让国家恢复平稳。”
不过,再益没有透露“超级富裕家庭”的名字。
他说,由于无法获得政府报告和受《官方保密法令》保护的数据,无数问题仍然被掩盖。
“我们需要召开一次国会,即使在决议被宣读之前,也不能通过拨款20亿令吉或更多来预先确定我们困境的答案。
“我们需要一个国会,通过仔细的审议找出深思熟虑的解决方案,从而制止大规模的盗窃行为。”
请团结政府更认真对待人民的问题
再益表示,人民和政府领导人必须更加认真地对待国家的问题并“开始提出问题”。
“我们的领导人必须愿意改变浮夸炫耀作风,放弃已告失败的解决方案。请更认真地对待人民的问题。”
Time for Malaysian Economic Congress, says Zaid

KUALA LUMPUR: A former federal minister has called for a Malaysian
Economic Congress to find ways to resolve related to the economy, governance
and corruption.
"It's a relief that the Bumiputera Economic Congress is over. Let's pray we
will not have another one ever again," said Datuk Zaid Ibrahim in a Facebook
post.
"What we need is a Malaysian Economic Congress. An honest congress
representing all Malaysians who are serious about finding answers to the
country's problems."
The former law minister cited the example of the plight of fishermen.
He said since 1970, close to RM80 billion had been spent on the fisheries
industry yet over 100,000 fishermen were among the poorest in the country.
Zaid said there was also the issue of some 300,000 padi farmers who less than
RM1,000 a month despite billions spent on the sector.
"Productivity is getting lower and lower, and we will never reach the 80 per
cent self-sufficiency target set for 2030. We need to find out the answers."
Zaid also said some economists projected that Malaysia has lost RM2.6 trillion
due to corruption over the past 40 years.
"Is it enough that we commenced an investigation into one or two super-rich
families for alleged corruption and deluded ourselves that everything from now
is okay and our system is squeaky clean?
"The people want to know where are the sources of the leakages and how to plug
them and put the country back on an even keel."
Zaid however did not name the "super-rich families".
He said there were countless problems which remain hidden due to a lack of
access to government reports and data protected by the Official Secrets Act.
"We need a congress where the answers to our woes are not predetermined by
dishing out RM2 billion or more, even before the resolutions are read.
"We need a Congress where thoughtful solutions are found through careful
deliberations so that large-scale pilferage can be stopped."
Zaid said the people and leaders must take the country's problems more
seriously and "start asking questions".
"Our leaders must be willing to change their flamboyant ways and discard
failed solutions. Please take the problems of the Rakyat more seriously."
