BUKAN SESUATU YANG SUSAH, ANWAR BOLEH MELAKUKANNYA - Kata Ku Li
"Jangan fikir kita akan terus berkuasa...hanya 30 kerusi boleh ubah pemerintahan negara ini. Ini bukan sesuatu yang susah hendak dibuat," tegasnya lagi.
Tengku Razaleigh berkata beliau terserempak dengan Anwar dalam penerbangan dari Kota Baru hari ini dan bertanyakan soalan itu kepada bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri."Saya tanya beliau (mengenai perkara itu), jawabnya dia serius. Itu jawapan beliau kepada saya."Tidak terjamin kita boleh kekal, tidak terjamin, itulah sebabnya saya sendiri risau dengan sikap pemimpin kita (mengenai dakwaan tersebut)," kata Tengku Razaleigh.
"Saya kenal banyak ahli parlimen (BN) yang terpilih baru-baru ini adalah orang kuat (Datuk Seri) Anwar (Ibrahim) sewaktu beliau masih berkuasa dahulu dan mereka masih rapat dengan beliau. "Kemungkinan mereka akan berpihak kepada PKR jika kita tidak mengambil tindakan tegas untuk mengawal perasaan mereka," katanya ketika menjawab soalan dalam pertemuan dengan kira-kira 500 ahli Umno di sekitar Subang Jaya di sebuah hotel terkemuka hari ini.
"Kita tahu PKR begitu serius hendak kalah kita, bukan di peringkat negeri sahaja tetapi juga di peringkat persekutuan.Hingga sekarang pun PKR hendak tumbangkan kita. Dia sudah dedahkan cita-citanya itu seperti yang dilaporkan dalam akhbar.Dia sudah kata dia ada cukup bilangan kerusi parlimen untuk tubuhkan kerajaan, kalau tidak pada 31 Ogos, mungkin pada 16 Ogos," tambah Tengku Razaleigh.
"Ini bukan cakap main-main. Perasaan orang Sabah terhadap Umno tidak seperti kita di sini. Kita di sini dilahir dan dibesarkan dalam suasana Umno. "Segala yang kita sentuh ada kaitan dengan perjuangan Umno. (Tetapi) perasaan orang Sabah tidak seperti perasaan orang Umno di sini, tidak tebal," tegasnya.Sehubungan itu, Tengku Razaleigh berkata, beliau bimbang dengan sikap pemimpin Umno yang tidak mengambil serius tentang perkara tersebut.

Tidak saja dari Sabah dan Sarawak, tapi juga daripada Semenanjung, (termasuk) dari ahli parlimen Umno.
Pakatan Rakyat tak mahu membentuk kerajaan yang lemah. Jika majoriti (yang menyertai Pakatan) sangat tipis, ia tidak bagus untuk negara dan rakyat. Jadi, PR ada masa yang cukup. Mereka (BN) yang dikejar masa. Jadi, PR akan terus menguatkan posisi sebelum buat pengumuman tersebut.
Jumlah untuk membentuk kerajaan persekutuan sudah ada, tapi belum cukup kuat untuk tadbir negara. Sekurangnya 2/3 diperlukan.

Archbishop Obtains Leave To Apply For Judicial Review On The Use Of "Allah"
KUALA LUMPUR, May 5 (Bernama) -- The High Court Monday granted leave to the Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur to apply for a judicial review against the Home Ministry's decision to prohibit the use of the word "Allah" in "The Herald", the Catholic Weekly.
In her judgment, Justice Lau Bee Lan said she agreed with leading counsel Porres Royan, representing Archbishop Datuk Murphy Pakiam, that it was premature to make any submission on the appropriate remedy at the leave stage.
She said the appropriateness or otherwise of the remedy was to be determined at the merit stage, where the court would have to fashion the remedy to suit the particular circumstances of the case.
"For the reasons given, I find the objection of the learned senior federal counsel with regard to a declaration that the applicant is entitled to use the word "Allah" in the Herald and the word "Allah" is not exclusive to the religion of Islam, is without merit and is thereby dismissed.
"The court hereby allows the applicant's application for leave pursuant to Order 53 Rules 3(1) of The Rules of the High Court, to quash the Home Ministry's decision to prohibit them (the applicant) from using the word "Allah" in the publication," she said.
The court however did not fix any date for the hearing.
Speaking to reporters outside the courtroom, Porres said he would be filing the application for judicial review in two weeks.
Meanwhile, another counsel for the Archbishop, S. Selvarajah, said they could now move forward to argue in court on the merits of the case to seek the three declarations stated in the application.
Roman Catholic Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur Datuk Murphy Pakiam, as publisher of The Herald, was named as applicant in the action, while the Internal Security Ministry (now merged with the Home Ministry to form the Home Ministry) and the Government were named as respondents.
Murphy is represented by a five-member team comprising Porres, Leonard Teoh, Derek Fernandez, Selvarajah and Annou Xavier.
Senior Federal Counsel Azizah Nawawi and Suzana Atan appeared for the Home Ministry and the Government.
The application, filed on March 19, asked the High Court to declare null and void the ministry's decision that "the publication permit is subject to publication guidelines, which prohibits the use of the word "Allah" in The Herald, in a letter dated Feb 12.
The Archbishop also seeks a declaration from the High Court that the word "Allah" can be used in The Herald and that it is not exclusive to Islam.
