Kali ini kerajaan menurunkan harga minyak sebanyak 10 sen seliter berbanding 15 sen sebelum ini.

Politik Berasaskan Kaum dan Politik Perkauman Akan Berkubur

Di sini saya amat tertarik dengan salah seorang hamba Allah (zul_car_9) yang mengulas ttg politik berasaskan kaum dan politik perkauman akan berkubur. Inilah masalahnya jika kita memisahkan politik dengan agama (politik suku, agama suku). Berikut adalah komem beliau di dalam Blog Dr Khir.

saya mulakan hujah dengan penghayatan perjuangan rasulullah... perjuangan tanpa membataskan perkauman, kabilah, pangkat dan darjat telah ternyata membawa islam keseluruh pelosok dunia... alhamdulillah.. pada hari ni juga kita dikabarkan dengan pengislaman michael jackson atau nama islamnye mikaeel...

hujah saudara yang menyebelahi kepada kekuatan bangsa semata-mata pada hemat saya masih bukan yang terbaik. Mungkin latar belakang dan asal usul kehidupan saudara membuatkan saudara berkeyakinan bahawa perjuangan umno itu sahaja yang terbaik.. sedih dan terlampau sedih.. memikirkan hal ini...

saya pernah membaca artikel mengenai saudara yang tidak mahu dilabelkan sebagai pengecut.. memang saudara punyai sifat kejantanan.. tapi kenapa masih meletakkan batasan ataupun boundary..kenapa perlu disempitkan laluan perjuangan..kenapa masih pengecut untuk merubah haluan.. kenapa begitu taksub pada penjajahan umno? lihatlah kebinasaan bertahun yang mereka cipta.. adakah umno solid? nilai2 lah...buatlah solat istikharah..

sedia maklum, malaysia negara pelbagai kaum.. pemisahan kepada politik perkauman hanya akan meranapkan pembinaan negara bangsa dan melemahkan perpaduan... memang benar ada isu yang perlu dilakukan dengan kebijaksanaan seperti ekonomi dan hal-hal sulit.. tapi pemisahan akan lebih membawa kepada kerenganan semata-mata.. kita tidak kuat.. kita masih bersikap racist.. dan terlampau taksub dengan perkara ini.. sedarilah politik masa hadapan akan menguatamakan kualiti dan bukan majoriti semata-mata.. anjakan untuk menghindarkan politik perkauman yang memualkan dan membataskan ini perlu dilakukan secepat mungkin..

Saya cukup bertuah, ibu diberikan hidayah untuk memeluk islam.. dan kami dapat berkongsi pandangan dan pendapat.. malaysia hanya akan lebih baik jika pemimpinnya sedia berubah dan menjauhi isu perkauman.
kami tidak nampak kemajuan didalam politik umno... tetapi politik pembangkang jauh kehadapan... kami bukan menilai dari isu remeh. tetapi dari visi, misi, agenda dan keinginan rakyat untuk kehidupan lebih baik...

perlu diingat, malaysia bumi bertuah, hujan melimpah ruah, gali tanah ada hasilnya, pokok tumbuh segar, perlabuhan utama.. laluan perdagangan sini sana, perkilangan bersepah, hasil bumi pun tak terkira..
tetapi apakan daya.. pemimpin kelas kedua,
rakyat malaysia berhak untuk kehidupan lebih baik...

20 die on Russian submarine

At least 20 people have died in an accident on a Russian nuclear submarine when a fire extinguishing system was activated by mistake.

Russian Pacific Fleet spokesman Igor Dygalo said both sailors and shipyard workers died in the accident, which occurred during sea trials.

The dead were suffocated by freon gas, which is used to put out fires as it removes oxygen from the air.

The vessel was not damaged and there was no radiation leak, Mr Dygalo said.

It is the worst incident for the navy since the sinking of the Kursk submarine in 2000, which left 118 dead.



Injured evacuated

Military prosecutors are investigating the incident, but the name and class of the submarine involved have not been officially revealed.

There were 208 people on board at the time, 81 of whom were servicemen. The dead are reported to be six sailors and 14 civilians.

Russian TV speculated on how the accident might have happened

Twenty-one injured people, reported to be suffering from various degrees of poisoning, were transferred from the submarine to the destroyer Admiral Tributs and taken to hospitals near Vladivostok.

The dead were transferred to morgues nearby after the vessel, which had been undergoing sea trials in the Sea of Japan, returned to port at Bolshoi Kamen, near Vladivostok, in the far eastern Primorsky territory.

Capt Dygalo said the incident happened after the fire extinguishing system "went off unsanctioned".

The BBC's Richard Galpin in Moscow says that in normal cases of a fire on board a submarine, the area would be evacuated and sealed off before pumping in freon gas.

28 Aug 2003: Nine die after decommissioned November class K-159 sinks
12 Aug 2000: 118 die in sinking of Oscar-II class Kursk
7 Apr 1989: 42 die after fire in Soviet-era Komsomolets

The gas removes oxygen from the air - to put out the fire - but if anyone is still trapped inside that area, they face suffocation.

Vladimir Markin, an official from Russia's top investigative agency, later said forensic tests had confirmed that freon was the cause of death.

Reports say the incident occurred in the nose of the submarine. The nuclear reactor, which is in the stern, was not affected.

"I declare with full responsibility that the reactor compartment on the nuclear-powered submarine is working normally and the radiation background is normal," Capt Dygalo said, quoted by Itar-Tass news agency.

Indian link

A shipyard source told the RIA Novosti news agency the vessel was the K-152 Nerpa, an Akula-class submarine, but this has not been confirmed.

Twenty die on Russian submarine

The Nerpa is due to be leased to the Indian navy, and Indian naval personnel were due to travel to Vladivostok earlier this month to train on board the submarine ahead of its transfer, according to the website Indian Defence.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev is being kept fully informed about the incident, his press service said.

Deputy Defence Minister Alexander Kolmakov and Navy Commander-in-Chief Vladimir Vysotsky are flying to the scene of the incident.

Russia's worst submarine disaster happened in August 2000, when the nuclear-powered Kursk sank in the Barents Sea. All 118 people on board died.

The then president, Vladimir Putin, was criticised for being slow to react to the incident and reluctant to call in foreign assistance.
