National Harmony Act

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that the Sedition Act 1948 will be replaced with a new National Harmony Act as part of the country’s political transformation plan. Once again proved that BN is taking steps to transforming Malaysia into a free and democratic country.

He also announced that recent amendments would be implemented which are Security Offences Act (Special Measures), The Printing Presses and Publications Act as well as the Universities and Colleges Act. I must say that it is good to have these legislations in place for the benefit of the Rakyat. The safety and security of the people is paramount and cannot be compromised.

This further proved that the Barisan Nasional Government are not making empty promises to carry-out political transformation, besides making the continuous efforts to transform our economy through NKEAs and 10th Malaysia Plan for the past 3 years, we can see it is progressing.

The replacement of Sedition Act with National Harmony Act is the balance between ensuring the freedom of expression and unwarranted expression which may hurts the feeling of the people in particular in is a multi racial and multi religious country. This Act will be able to focus on the mutual respect and harmony among the Malaysian.

On contrary, Pakatan Rakyat has been making empty promises to the people in order to grab power and fish for voters. There isn’t any substantial plans for the wellbeing of the Rakyat beside empty promises.
