Anak lelaki Guan Eng, anak perempuan Najib

Aliran ialah sebuah NGO masyhur yang berperanan ‘social watchdog’.

Pada Okt 25, dalam lidah pengarang bertajuk ‘Perverse logic, baffling statement‘ tentang “anak lelaki ketua menteri Pulau Pinang yang dengan secara tidak adilnya terpalit dengan tuduhan palsu mencabul”, presiden Aliran P. Ramakrishnan berkata:

“Ask anyone and you will be told that these words [by Lim Guan Eng] are uttered with disgust and they convey a terrible outrage of a person overcome with grief and anger. These are certainly strong words that show utter contempt for these lies.”

Kenyataan Ramakrishnan membayangkan kepercayaannya bahawa berita yang disebarkan melalui blog-blog pro-Umno adalah tidak berasas serta berniat jahat.

Bukan sahaja kenyataan akhbar di atas, Ramakrishnan juga melahirkan rasa jijiknya dalam sebuah lagi kenyataan akhbar mengecam dengan sekeras-kerasnya ‘politik longkang’.

Kutukan presiden Aliran itu:

“Resorting to utter gutter politics is akin to swimming in the cesspool without a care. That’s how those faceless pro-Umno bloggers who spun a lie regarding an innocent son to get at the father came across – filthy and smelly.”

Namun Ramakrishnan sendiri tidak bikin serupa cakap. Dia boleh nampak kuman di tanah besar seberang Pulau Pinang tempat kediamannya tetapi gajah depan mata tidak diendahkan.

Pada hari Selasa, Konsul-jeneral Malaysia di Perth menafi dakwaan bahawa anak perempuan perdana menteri telah membelanjakan A$60,000 membeli-belah sewaktu Najib Razak menghadiri CHOGM.

Malah anak Najib tidak pun berada di Australia.

Apabila ianya membabitkan anak Guan Eng, pihak pembangkang melalak bahawa ahli keluarga tidak harus diseret ke kancah politik.

Apabila anak perdana menteri menjadi mangsa, mereka diam seribu bahasa.

Di dalam lidah pengarang Aliran pada Okt 20, Ramakrishnan melolong:

Not to be out-done, the Umno Youth chief gets into the act with his silly comments. He comes across as no better than the half-baked politicians who are incapable of being logical.

Khairy Jamaluddin dikritik kerana tweet seloroh “Kampung Buah Dada”nya.

Namun apabila Anwar Ibrahim men-tweet seperti di atas, Ramakrishnan tidak pula menyalurkan kritikan: “Not to be out-done, the PKR de facto chief gets into the act with his silly comments”.

Seterusnya Aliran dalam kenyataan akhbar telah berkata:

“What is disturbing and worrying is the fact that these so-called know-all cheap politicians had picked a fight with a 16-year old teenager who is not capable of defending himself or explaining himself. This is their crude and cowardly way of waging a political battle to disgrace and denigrate the Chief Minister of Penang.”

Aliran tidak mengamok perihal “politikus murahan” [di sini saya mencerminkan ungkapan-ungkapan Ramakrishnan tadi] puak Pakatan yang sanggup “mengertak remaja” supaya kena tempias bapanya yang akan dimalukan dan dicemarkan nama baiknya.

Ramakrishnan menggambarkan mereka-mereka yang membuat komen kes anak Guan Eng sebagai “politikus keji” dan “sampah masyarakat” yang menghalalkan “perangai pengecut” membuli budak kecil.

Akan tetapi berkomen tentang anak Najib tidak mengundang apa-apa teguran.

Sungguhpun Aliran membisu apabila anak-isteri Chua Soi Lek serta ahli keluarga para menteri Umno dicemuh dan difitnah sebelum ini, Ramakrishnan meradang bukan kepalang apabila diungkit – kononnya – hal anak Guan Eng:

“To traumatise a teenager with blatant lies is doing irreparable damage to someone who is just growing up. This is the period that a teenager can be easily crushed and shaken psychologically to the extent that he may lose all his self-confidence and may not even recover from this trauma.

“He may be forced to withdraw into a shell and become an introvert. Worse, he may even view society as an unreasonable, uncaring one hell of a big bully and turn into an anti-social individual. The possibilities are tremendous – all because certain unethical politicians chose to be unscrupulous in wanting to grab power.”

Nampaknya Aliran tidak khuatir akan kemungkinan anak gadis Najib sedang membesar itu akan mengalami trauma dan seksa batin yang sukar diatasi kelak.

This is the period that a young girl can be easily crushed and shaken psychologically to the extent that she may lose all her self-confidence and may not even recover from this harrowing experience.

The possibilities are tremendous, and all because of the gutter politics that extends to young family members, Najib’s daughter may just turn into an anti-social individual too scared to ever go shopping again.

Aliran dan presidennya Ramakrishan tak prihatin ke? Janganlah mengamalkan dwi-standard manakala meminta orang lain supaya mesti konsisten.
