APA KATA DATUK DR HASSAN ALI?
"Tak ada perbezaan (prinsip Islam) dengan apa yang saya perkatakan semalam. Ini nilai universal dan kita (PAS Selangor) tak tidak pernah mengatakan arak perlu diharamkan secara total di Selangor."

"Yang saya kata, kita tak mahu arak di jual kepada kanak-kanak di bawah umur 18 tahun, dan orang Islam."

"Saya kenal dia (Liu) sudah lebih 20 tahun, kita kawan, dalam mesyuarat Exco juga kita tidak ada masalah dan kita tidak pernah bermusuh, kita sentiasa sepakat dan bersatu hati dalam menyelesaikan sesuatu isu."

"Saya ada bos, dan bos saya Menteri Besar (Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim). Saya hanya dengar apa dia kata. Kalau dia kata tidak ada pertukaran (portfolio, maknanya saya akan ikut."

APA KATA RONNIE LIU?
"Apa yang berlaku ialah perbezaan pendapat semata-mata, inilah istimewanya Pakatan Rakyat. Kita boleh berbeza pendapat dalam satu-satu isu,
tapi akhirnya kita dapat selesaikannya secara baik."
"Kita ada forum untuk menyelesaikan masalah sebegini."
"Kalau ada pihak fikir mereka boleh ambil kesempatan atas apa yang berlaku dalam Pakatan mereka hanya boleh bermimpi.
Yang penting kita ada penyelesaian dan boleh terus bekerjasama."


SAYA BERKONGSI "KATA" DENGAN "IVAN":


Alcohol affects your brain. Drinking alcohol leads to a loss of coordination, poor judgment, slowed reflexes, distorted vision, memory lapses, and even blackouts.

Alcohol affects your body. Alcohol can damage every organ in your body. It is absorbed directly into your bloodstream and can increase your risk for a variety of life-threatening diseases, including cancer.

Alcohol affects your self-control. Alcohol depresses your central nervous system, lowers your inhibitions, and impairs your judgment. Drinking can lead to risky behaviors, such as driving when you shouldn’t, or having unprotected sex.

Alcohol can kill you. Drinking large amounts of alcohol at one time or very rapidly can cause alcohol poisoning, which can lead to coma or even death. Driving and drinking also can be deadly. In 2003, 31 percent of drivers age 15 to 20 who died in traffic accidents had been drinking alcohol.¹ 

Alcohol can hurt you–even if you’re not the one drinking. If you’re around people who are drinking, you have an increased risk of being seriously injured, involved in car crashes, or affected by violence. At the very least, you may have to deal with people who are sick, out of control, or unable to take care of themselves.

Be on the know to prevent it:
Know the law. It is illegal to buy or possess alcohol if you are under age 21.

Get the facts. One drink can make you fail a breath test. In some States, people under age 21 can lose their driver’s license, be subject to a heavy fine, or have their car permanently taken away.

Stay informed. “Binge” drinking means having five or more drinks on one occasion. Studies show that more than 35 percent of adults with an alcohol problem developed symptoms–such as binge drinking–by age 19.²

Know the risks. Alcohol is a drug. Mixing it with any other drug can be extremely dangerous. Alcohol and acetaminophen–a common ingredient in OTC pain and fever reducers–can damage your liver. Alcohol mixed with other drugs can cause nausea, vomiting, fainting, heart problems, and difficulty breathing.³ Mixing alcohol and drugs also can lead to coma and death.

Keep your edge. Alcohol is a depressant, or downer, because it reduces brain activity. If you are depressed before you start drinking, alcohol can make you feel worse.

Look around you. Most teens aren’t drinking alcohol. Research shows that 71 percent of people 12-20 haven’t had a drink in the past month.
