(Masukkan nombor kad pengenalan 431104115043) "Ketika saya semak laman keahlian Umno yang dikemaskini pada 18 Julai 2007 jam 2:31:56 PM, nama ayah ngah sudah ada sebagai ahli. Nombor ahlinya adalah 02812128 / AHLI BIASA," beritahu Faris kepada Siasah. Mengikut data itu, Zakaria mendaftar keahlian Umno di cawangan SEBERANG MARANG dalam Dun RU RENDANG di bahagian MARANG negeri TERENGGANU. Menurut Faris, memang orang luar Terengganu khasnya yang tidak mengenali siapa bapa saudaranya akan terkejut dengan berita ini. "Menurut maklumat yang saya terima, 50,000 poster sedang dicetak untuk memberitahu kepada umum kemasukan abang ayah saya ini ke dalam Umno," katanya yang merupakan anak ketiga Datuk Mustafa Ali. Menurut media, Zakaria atau Supar bin Ali menyerahkan borang permohonannya untuk menjadi ahli Umno kepada Datuk Idris Jusoh baru-baru ini dengan diiringi oleh Ketua Umno Bahagian Marang, Datuk Abdul Rahman Bakar. Sebelum ini, Datuk Mustafa dalam kenyataannya meminta semua pihak khasnya pemimpin Umno menjaga abangnya dengan baik. "Saya berharap semua pihak tidak sakitinya dengan perkataan atau perbuatan yang boleh lebih menjejaskan kesihatan beliau," kata Mustafa dalam kenyataannya. Nurul Izzah Anwar may take on Cabinet minister Din Merican Posted by Raja Petra www.malaysia-today.net Monday, 11 February 2008 SHE may have just given birth to her first child in September but 27-year-old Nurul Izzah Anwar, the eldest daughter of Malaysian opposition icon Anwar Ibrahim, has no intention of letting motherhood stand in the way of her political debut at the general election widely expected in March. Speaking to Today in an exclusive interview, her mother, Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, who heads Keadilan, confirmed that members of the opposition party were backing Ms Nurul to contest the polls. Dubbed Puteri Reformasi or Reform Princess by the Malaysian media, Ms Nurul who has a Masters degree in international relations from the Washington-based Johns Hopkins University, was just 18 when her father, then Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia, was imprisoned for sodomy and corruption. She was very young at the time tragedy befell her family with the arrest of her father. A lot of people sympathised with her, said Mr Sim Tze Tin, Mr Anwars political secretary. Describing Ms Nurul as courageous for her relentless campaign across Malaysia to have her father freed from prison, Mr Sim added: The time has now come for her to emerge as a political force. Like her father, Ms Nurul runs a blog. In her latest posting, the electronic engineer by training wrote about the alleged abuse of detainees imprisoned under Malaysias Internal Security Act. Keadilan party sources told Today that Ms Nurul may be fielded against no less than a Cabinet minister. Her likely opponent will be Ms Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, the Women, Family and Community Development Minister, in the Lembah Pantai parliamentary seat in the upmarket area of Bangsar in Kuala Lumpur. Lembah Pantai is a relatively multiracial seat with about 55 per cent Malays, 27 per cent Chinese and 18 per cent Indians. It is understood that two other seats in the capital - with a similar racial mix - have also been identified as potential seats where Ms Nurul might contest. However, the trading of seats to avoid three-cornered contests between Keadilan and other parties such as the Democratic Action Party (DAP) and Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS) is still on going. Keadilan, set up in 1999 while Mr Anwar was in prison, plans to contest 80 seats. If so, it may be the opposition party with the most candidates. At the 2004 poll, Keadilan fielded about 60 candidates. News of Ms Nurul entering the fray comes just days after it was revealed that Umno Youth deputy chief Khairy Jamaluddin, the son-in-law of Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, will also be contesting. - TodayOnline (BERSIH!
