SUPRISE!! OBAMA AKAN JADI TETAMU JEMPUTAN #PemilihanUMNO OKTOBER NANTI?

The White House today confirmed that US President Barack Obama will visit Malaysia and several other Southeast Asian economies including Indonesia, Brunei and the Philippines from October 6-12 as part of his ongoing commitment to increase America's political, economic and security engagements in the Asia-Pacific region.

According to a statement issued by the Office of the Press Secretary at The White House, the President will meet with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak during his visit to Kuala Lumpur to highlight Washington's growing bilateral ties with Malaysia.

He will also deliver the keynote address at the Global Entrepreneurship Summit to be held here from October 11-12.

Now in its fourth year, the Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) is an initiative the President announced in 2009 to spur job creation through entrepreneurship by connecting young innovators to resources, ideas and each other.

Before coming to Malaysia, he will be in Indonesia to attend the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Meeting.

APEC is the region's leading forum for trade and investment integration.

The statement said Obama would also host a series of meetings on the sidelines of the APEC meeting.

The President will host a meeting of Leaders of the Trans-Pacific Partnership countries, which comprises 12 negotiating economies, including Malaysia.

He will also meet with Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to reaffirm US' close bilateral ties and celebrate the third year of their Comprehensive Partnership.

The President will then travel to Brunei for the US-ASEAN Summit and the East Asia Summit (EAS) and to meet with the Sultan of Brunei.

ASEAN and the EAS are key forums for regional multilateral cooperation.

During the meetings, the President will discuss the wide range of US cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region, including energy, maritime security, investment, development and trade promotion, as well as other topics of regional and global concern.

The President will then travel to the Philippines, the fifth Asian treaty ally he has visited during his presidency.

"He will meet with President (Benigno) Aquino to reaffirm the strong economic, people-to-people and security links between our two countries," the statement added. - BERNAMA

#PemilihanUMNO: CALON EXCO NO. 46 PERLUKAN PELUANG DEMI MEMARTABATKAN DESTINI ANAK BANGSA!!

Tak sangka satu lagi kejutan dibuat dalam kehangatan Pemilihan UMNO kali ini. Seperti yang kita tahu, Naib Presiden Himpunan Siswazah Kelantan (HIMSAK) telah disahkan bertanding bagi jawatan ini, namun disaat-saat akhir, hari ini (Deadline penghantaran borang calon), Presiden HIMSAK, Saudara Faizal bin Daud telah hantarkan borang bagi bertanding kerusi yang sama.

Saudara Faizal telah tersenarai sebagai Calon EXCO Pemuda no. 46. Memang sangat padan dan 'comel' apabila dua kombinasi no. yang cantik, iaitu no. 46 dan no. 62 (Saudara Ariff Hakimi Haji Zulkifli) sama-sama bersaing demi memperjuangkan niat yang yang positif (seperti yang saya nyatakan sebelum ini, klik SINI).

Secara peribadi, saya berharap mereka berdua diberi peluang dan kepercayaan untuk menggalas tugas EXCO Pemuda. Semoga 'jasa' yang mereka sama-sama usahakan sebelum ini dalam GDAB dibalas. GOOD LUCK!!!

TUKAR KELATE

Selain Ariff Hakimi yang juga Naib Presiden Himpunan Siswazah Kelantan (HIMSAK) iaitu calon exco pemuda bernombor 62. Presiden Himpunan Siswazah Kelantan iaitu Sdr. Faizal Daud turut bertanding merebut jawatan exco pemuda menjelang pemilihan Oktober nanti.

Kedua-dua calon kelahiran Kelantan ini merupakan individu yang aktif bergerak melalui HIMSAK dan juga Gerakan Destini Anak Bangsa (GDAB). Penulis dimaklumkan Faizal Daud menawarkan diri pada saat akhir setelah mendapatkan pandangan daripada penaung HIMSAK sendiri iaitu Dato Seri Mustapha Mohamed serta Ketua Pemuda UMNO Kelantan Anuar Safian.

Menurut Faizal Daud, tujuan dia turut bersama Naib Presiden HIMSAK Ariff Hakimi bertanding merebut jawatan exco pemuda adalah kerana mahu mendekati golongan muda dan mahasiswa supaya mereka sayang pada UMNO.

Jika ditakdirkan menang dalam pertandingan ini, golongan mahasiswa mampu didekati melalui platform politik berbanding sebelum ini di mana golongan mahasiswa didekati melalui NGO, malah ada yang tidak berani membawa nama parti politik setiap kali berhadapan dengan kumpulan mahasiswa

Selepas ini penulis akan perincikan gerak kerja di peringkat akar umbi yang telah dilakukan oleh kedua-dua calon exco pemuda UMNO Malaysia dari Kelantan.

Dua nombor penting buat pemuda akar umbi di Kelantan menjelang Pemilihan Agung UMNO 2013 iaitu No.46 dan No.62...
