Nazri - The Real "Nobody"

"She is nobody. She got no locus standi. She is not elected. I can't even attack her as she is a nobody. If I do that it would not look good for me as a minister. It looks like I am bullying her". These were the words used to attack Datuk Ambiga, the Berish Chairman.    Aiyoo- yoo! Where have you been, Nazri. Betul, betul "Kakak dalam temperung". Betul, betul kampong boy metality, and you call yourself a minister. With such minister we will forever remain as a backward country.Lets get back to his statement that Datuk Ambiga is a nobody. Dear Nazri, take a look at

the following 2 pictures which showed Ambiga as the recipient of the US Women of Courage and the French Knight of the Legion of Honour, two tremendously prestigious awards.

These are international awards, and can a 'nobody' receive such awards? And what did Nazri receive? probably a bullock cart wheel, as a giant medellion, to put round his neck to show that he is only fit to run a kampung community. In fact the "nobody" tag should be hung on him, for who in the international arena knows who Nazri is ?
Back home in his own backyard, Nazri projects himself as a poorly neglected ministers, and thus needs to prop himself up with his arrogance and bitchiness. As an MP, instead of listening to the wishes of the people, he helps his boss to cling unto the power by spewing lies and threats.
He must be taught that the rakyat will not tolerate his nonsence, and the only way to punish him and his boss is through the polls. As Chua Jui Meng said, " Compare them against Ambiga and see how small these two so-called umno leaders really are - you can judge just by their speech and action"

From the horse's mouth - The cat is out of the bag.

So now we have it. The cat is out of the bag. The past elections had not been fair. This comes from 2 horse's mouth.
First, former minister and veteran Umno member Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir confessed that "All the radio, all the newspapers, all the televisions... it carries only one voice,"
When he was the minister of information (under fifth prime minister Abdullah Badawi) he felt that he was not strong enough to effect any change.
 He also said that he was given stacks of notes to distribute when he was helping in by-elections. He even had ministers telling him that money was necessary for politics and criticised this belief as just a means to justify corruption and abuse of power.
Finally he conceeded that introducing indelible ink would not ensure free and fair elections.
Next, the former Election Commission (EC) chairperson Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman
confessed that when he was EC chief, he had proposed changes but could not touch on structural reforms as he had to maintain his relationship with the government.
The "election man" of 27 years said his difficulties then were compounded by the fact that he was bound by electoral laws.
"If the election laws are dumb as a cow, then we're dumb as a cow," he lamented.
Rashid criticised the involvement of other agencies in conducting polls, urging that the EC be given full powers.
Finally, he suggested that public media should not be used for campaigning but if you are going to, then there should at least be equal access.
So where are all the umno ministers who kept on insisting that the elction is fair and transparent? What have you got to say now?

2012 CNY - Nasi Lauk you never taste before !

This video clip, with a Kelantan touch, is making waves in the internet.
Briefly it tells the story of a nasi lauk (a popular Kelantan dish) seller Kak Ton, whose son, Mat had died of cancer. He then left a note.......(best you see it for yourself)According to some comments, it is better than the Petronas festive advertisements, and shows what 1 Malaysia should be.
One viewer describes the video as a wake-up call.
“I'm going to teach my friends and family that right way, respect each other every religion and every race. A negative thought does not bring u anywhere but a positive ones will. If you think this is an imaginary video then for you it will always, always be only an imaginary video." I couldn't agree with him more.
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL MALAYSIANS .

One Acquital is Not a Triumph for the Justice System

Lets see the reactions of some of the umno leaders on Anwar's acquital:From the Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak - The court ruling ..... has seen the government cleared once and for all of the many baseless accusations of political interference and conspiracy against the leader of the oppositionFrom Mahathir -the acquital proved that there was no government conspiracy or interference in the country's judiciary.
From Muhyddin - The acquittal would increase the confidence of Malaysians and the international  community in Datuk Seri Najib.
And from Rias Yatim - The verdict shows that the country's judiciary is independent and able to deliver judgment without fear or favour.
My, my, my, such prasies being heaped on the judiciary, and all from just this one case which should not have gone to court in the first place, because it was based on an archaic provisionLets see the reactions of some of our umno leaders on Anwar's acquital:
From the Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak - The court ruling ..... has seen the government cleared once and for all of the many baseless accusations of political interference and conspiracy against the leader of the opposition.
From Mahathir -the acquital proved that there was no government conspiracy or interference in the country's judiciary.

My, my, my, such prasies being heaped on the judiciary, and all from just this one case which should not have gone to court in the first place, because it was based on an archaic
 of the Penal Code that criminalises consensual sexual relations between adults. Moreover, according to the Bar Council, the verdict was made "in accord with the evidence presented". I wonder what the reaction would have been if the verdict had been the other way. In fact by the surprises expressed by most leaders, especially Mahathir himself , showed that the umnos have expected Anwar to be judged guilty, and the praises only showed up their hypocricy.
Mahathir's "Melayu senag lupa" seems to apply aptly to the umno leaders. No political interference and conspiracy? what a joke! And going further back, have they forgotten how the judiciary usurped the power of the Perak Asssembly Speaker thus causing the fall of the Pakatan government there? Have they forgotten Teoh Beng Hock"s case where the judge cant even decide whether it was suicide or homicide, or Ahmad Sabani's death as accidental.? The perception is that someone or some institutions are being protected by the judiciary, under the orders of someone in power, and we know who is pulling the strings. Dont they know that "One swallow doesnt make a summer"?
  

Hasan to fade into oblivion - Anwar to be the next PM

The year 2012, the year of the Dragon, has started off well, with two events that will herald in a more harmanious  race relationship and a more just judiciary. Of course it may just be a flash in the pan, but it is a start.First we have the sacking of Hasan Ali. Undoubtedly he has been the cause of all the religious unrest and Christian bashing. Who besides this bigot, has been creating religious friction when there is none. Of course there were others, but they are just followers, but with him being cold storaged, there will be less said and done, and everyone can carry on living a peaceful life.
Even his offer of proofs with witnesses, etc have conditions attached to them. He said he has witnesses who will testify that they have been proselythised, and he can arrange for a meeting with this people. But here comes his escape hatch. However the meeting will depend on whether the witnesses will agree to come out, as they feared persecution and humiliation. Persecution from whom? Definitely not from the Christians, but from the likes of Hasan Ali and his Jais and Perkasa. So there is no meeting and so he escapes with another of his empty attacks without proof. Only a person with a devious mind can cook up such a scheme. Its amazing how a person who professes to do everything in the name of his god, cannot see the damage he is causing to the country.
 If the law says it is wrong to proselythise, then charge those who are involved.  But dont make ridiculous accusations without proofs.
The second event is the acquital of Anwar Ibrahim from the sodomy charge. Yes, the judge should be credited for his bravery to make a just stand, based on the facts presented and not presented in the case. However one swallow doesn't a summer make. But we already have the BN ministers coming out to capitalise on this mounmental decision, citing that it is proof that the court is independent. More will surface no doubt to heap praises on the judiciary. One MCA goon has even asked the Opposition to apologise to the public for doubting the court. Gee, after all the lob-sided and umno-fed decisions of the past, are we to jump for joy and conclude that the judiciary is finally independent, just because of Anwar's acquittal?  Dont forget that the police's creditability is still in question, so is the MACC. So let's not cork the champaign yet.  

10 Condition for 901 Rally

What is feared has now materialised. Yes, you can have your rally, but setting,  not one, not two, but 10 conditions has made a mockery of the bill. This is the kind of professionalism we have in our police force. The Kiasu syndrome has set in. Not wanting to lose face altogether, they now impose 10 conditions.
Can you imagine, 100,000 gathered in one spot and we are not allowed to make noise. And how do they define noise? 100,000 talking at the same time, is that making noise? Or are we supposed to look at each other like zombies?
Furthermore the police has confined the rally participants in the area of the car park which the IGP said can hold only 5,000 people, and anyone outside the car park would mean they are gathering illegally and can be arrested. So with 100,00 attending, where are these people supposed to gather? So this will give the police the excuse to use their batons, water canons and create chaos. Subsequently this will be blamed on the rally participants for not following the conditions.
I have already suspect that the police will not simply submit totally to a rally without any strings attached. It is a matter of face saving, and so out comes the 10 conditions. I am sure the rally organsiers are aware of such tactics.
