@anwaribrahim KENA SEMBUR OLEH @BarackObama & @NajibRazak ISU HAK ASASI/DEMONSTRASI!!!


Presiden Amerika Syarikat (AS), Barack Obama menyatakan perbincangan beliau dengan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak hari ini turut menyentuh hak asasi manusia dan kebebasan bersuara di negara ini.

Jelas beliau, agenda itu sentiasa menjadi keutamaan beliau dalam mana-mana lawatan dilakukan memandangkan masih banyak ruang penambahbaikan yang boleh dilakukan.

"Saya tidak bertemu dengan Datuk Seri Anwar (Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim), saya juga tidak bertemu dengan banyak orang lain tetapi ini tidak bermakna saya tidak menitikberatkan (isu hak asasi manusia).

"Apa yang saya telah kongsikan dengan Perdana Menteri Najib adalah prinsip asas sebuah masyarakat yang menghormati perintah undang-undang, kebebasan bersuara, hak untuk membangkang walaupun tidak menyenangkan, kebebasan berhimpun dan rasa hormat terhadap anggota masyarakat yang berbeza agama serta pendirian politik, ini semua adalah ukuran masyarakat yang berjaya pada abad ke-21," katanya dalam sidang akhbar yang turut disertai Najib di Seri Perdana di sini hari ini.


Obama menjawab soalan seorang wartawan media asing yang bertanya sama ada beliau menitikberatkan atau tidak isu hak asasi manusia dan kebebasan bersuara di Malaysia apabila memutuskan tidak bertemu dengan Anwar.

Sementara itu, menurut Najib, Malaysia adalah antara negara yang terkehadapan dalam menegakkan prinsip hak asasi manusia apabila memansuhkan Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) dan menggubal Akta Perhimpunan Aman.

Dalam kes liwat melibatkan Anwar, beliau berkata, di sisi undang-undang, semua individu mempunyai hak keadilan yang sama walau sekecil atau sebesar mana kedudukannya, tidak elok untuk saya ulas lebih lanjut kes yang masih berada dalam proses mahkamah," katanya.

Terdahulu, dalam meraikan kehadiran Obama, Najib berkata, Malaysia telah banyak berubah sejak lawatan Presiden Lyndon B. Johnson pada tahun 1966 dan negara majoriti muslim serta pelbagai etnik ini sedang pesat menuju kemodenan.

"48 tahun lalu, seorang Presiden AS telah memijakkan kakinya di tanah Malaysia, ketika itu televisyen adalah hitam putih, kumpulan The Monkees menjuarai carta lagu AS dengan lagu 'Last Train to Clarksville dan filem 'The Sound of Music' memenangi Anugerah Akademi.

"Hari ini, Tuan Presiden, anda tidak melihat pokok-pokok getah sebagaimana Lyndon B. Johnson saksikan tetapi pencakar-pencakar langit yang melambung tinggi, ini adalah petunjuk transformasi yang berlaku di Malaysia," katanya. - UTUSAN

#ObamaInKL: APAKAH RAHSIA YANG ADA PADA PESAWAT AIR FORCE ONE YANG DINAIKI @BarackObama? #MH370

SELAMAT DATANG KE MALAYSIA BARACK OBAMA!!


Air Force One: It is America's plane, a national icon and the most secure aircraft in the world. Now, journey aboard, as the members of the Presidential Airlift Group fly this specially modified 747 in a time of global uncertainty, following September 11th, 2001. The events of 9/11 thrust Air Force One's crew into a day of terror that none could have predicted. Crewmembers stationed at every corner of the jet recall the urgency of shepherding the President on an emergency flight over America's heartland. Seven years later, preparations are now underway for a diplomatic mission of historic significance and scope: an eight-day tour through six countries in the Middle East. This journey summons recollections of another high-stakes mission to the region, one set in the heart of conflict - the President's secret flight into Baghdad, Thanksgiving Day, 2003. Following a steep, corkscrew descent, their landing into Iraq was unannounced and unexpected. Now, each member of the PAG, from maintenance and engineering to the flight crew and presidential security detachment, must be ready for a highly publicized trip. - SOURCE

Air Force One


Air Force One is the designation of any airplane that serves the President of the United States government. The same planes are used by the vice-president but are called Air Force Two when he is aboard. The presidential fleet consists of two customized Boeing 747-200B aircraft (military designation VC-25A) called SAM 28000 and 29000.

The name Air Force One was established after an incident in 1953, when Eastern Airlines flight 8610 crossed paths with the president's plane, then called Air Force 8610, although the Air Force One name was not made official until 1962.

History

Guess Where II and Sacred Cow

The first aircraft configured for presidential use was a C-87A (Liberator Express) called Guess Where II, but concerns about the C-87 safety record relegated it to use by senior members of the White House staff, including First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt on her goodwill tour of Latin America.

In its place, a Douglas C-54 Skymaster (VC-54C) was configured for the president and nicknamed Sacred Cow. It had a sleeping area, radio telephone, and an elevator to raise President Franklin Roosevelt into it in his wheelchair (but FDR used the plane only once). This airplane is now housed at the National Museum of the United States Air Force.
Independence

In 1947, President Truman replaced the Sacred Cow with a Douglas DC-6 Liftmaster (VC-118) named Independence after his hometown. Its nose was painted to look like a bald eagle. Its aft fuselage was converted into a stateroom. And the main cabin could seat 24 passengers or could be made up into 12 sleeper berths. This airplane is now housed at the National Museum of the United States Air Force.
Columbine II and III and Aero Commanders

In addition to the Independence, Eisenhower used two Lockheed C-121 Super Constellations (VC-121E) called Columbine IIand Columbine III and two small Aero Commanders.
Special Air Mission 970, 971, and 972

In 1958, Eisenhower added three additional aircraft into the executive branch service. These were Boeing 707 (VC-137) aircraft designated SAM 970, 971, and 972. These were the first presidential jet aircraft.
Special Air Mission 26000 and 27000

During the Kennedy administration, SAM 26000, a Boeing 707 (VC-137) went into presidential service. Influential industrial designer Raymond Loewy designed the new livery (the exterior color scheme) and the interiors. President Johnson took the oath of office on board SAM 26000, and the airplane continued to serve presidents up to Bill Clinton until 1998. It was replaced as the primary executive aircraft in 1972 by SAM 27000, another VC-137, which served until 2001. This airplane is now housed at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum.
Special Air Mission 28000 and 29000

In 1990, the two Boeing 747 (VC-25A) aircraft used today were delivered (having been ordered by Ronald Reagan). The same livery was used, but the interiors were selected by Mrs. Reagan.

A new Air Force One is scheduled to go into service in 2017. The likely candidates are a Boeing 747-8 and a Boeing 787.
