KUALA LUMPUR 17 Jan: Kartunis politik kontroversi tanahair, Zunar
sekali lagi mendapat pengiktirafan antarabangsa apabila dijemput membuat
pameran solo selama sebulan di kota London, Febuari ini.
Bertemakan
To Fight Through Cartoon, sebanyak 80 karya kartun menyentuh isu
politik, rasuah, penyalahgunaan kuasa serta pelanggaran hak asasi
manusia akan dipamerkan.
Fight Through Cartoon (Berjuang Melalui Kartun) adalah pameran solo
Zunar pertama sepanjang 30 tahun berkarya. Pada akhir tahun lepas, Zunar
juga mengadakan dua pameran bersama artis-artis yang lain di Bilbao,
Sepanyol.
Despite documented evidence of abuse, the Auditor General's
report and the freeze on assets, officials at the National Feedlot
Corporation (NFC), seem to be stuck in a time warp, going about their
daily shenanigans as if nothing is wrong and denying vehemently all
allegations of misappropriation.
But instead of gaining credibility, the growing confusion over key
transactions and conflicting accounts about what really happened have
sparked calls for a Royal Commission of Inquiry.
According to DAP's veteran politician and party stalwart, Lim Kit
Siang, among those on the list of suspected culprits who have to be
grilled on their role in the debacle was none other than Muhyiddin
Yassin, the Agriculture Minister at the time when the NFC was formed and
financed.
