Malaysia Under The Threat Of Revive Communism?

I can not agree more with Datuk Zaid Ibrahim who criticise the racist Umno politicians in relation to the suggestion to allow Chin Peng, the former communist leader to return home. In order to achieve its evil purpose, the Umno controlled malay media went all out to demonise Chin Peng in their series of reporting, as if the old man is capable to change and make Malaysia a comunist country again. Well! I don't deny that there is still a slight chance that Chin Peng wants to revive the comunism ideology to Malaysian. But it needs two to tango, how many of us will be attracted by communism? Umno think that the rakyat's thinking is still remained at the 60s'.

According to Rais Yatim and Ahmad Zahid Hamidi there is a new enemy. The duo cited that those who suggested to allow Chin Peng to return home are trying to revive comunism. Is it really so? Can our minister make such a irresponsible statement? To me, I welcome Chin Peng to come home to see for himself the successful and the beauty of free market and show him how poor are the few comminism countries left in the world.

Why is Umno then willing to spend so much money in their various media platforms, just to demonise this old man who is probably setting one of his foot in the coffin? The only reason for Umno to do so is to divert people's attention from the country's economy problems, constituency crisis and the countless law suit which have some bearing in Umno's reputation.

I still remember when I was young, I have seen countless times of government owned TV stations broadcasted the malay movie called "Bukit Kepong". In that movie, there are many scenes in the movie about the comunist kill the villages in a cruel manner. By and large, the movie is trying to remind people, especially the malay how cruel is the communist(mostly chinese), or in short, Chinese kill Malay. Is this how Umno promote racial harmony?

Umno is good in labelling others of being racsim, for example Dong Jiao Zhong, Hindraf. In fact, most of the racist souls are from within Umno. If the Malay ex-communist like Rashid Maidin and Shamsiah Fakeh can come home, why not a chinese ex-communist?

In my humble opinion, I don't thing those who call for allowing Chin Peng to return to Malaysia is the country's new enemy. Instead, Umno is the No 1 enemy in our effort to promote racial harmony.

Najib And Zambry Don't Understand?

I'm very sick of hearing Najib, Zambry and other Umno clowns who said that BN accepted the fact after 308 defeat in Perak and BN did not make noise like what PR did. Najib & Zambry keep saying they don't understand why PR behave like that....

Well, BN always legitimite their wrong doing. They hoped that some people will believe in the misleading messages and hence, sympatise with BN.

The darn fact is, the collapse of BN government in the 2008 GE was done through the vote of people. Of course BN will have to accept people's decision. But in the 206 collapse of PR government, it was due to BN snatched power in the dubious manner, Perak people have no say over it. That was BN's plot to snatch power without respecting the people's decision for a PR government in 308. I guess BN still doesn't know how much curse and swear that the betrayal, Hee Yit Foong received from not only the people of Jelapang (the constituency she is representing) but whole of Perak.

These are the people's will that BN choose to ignore. Najib did not even dare to face the people in Jelapang when he was supposed to attend a function in Jelapang after Hee Yit Foong defected, over the security concern. He knew that people are not happy but he insisted until today not to dissolve the DUN.

In addition, BN is also a collect rubbish by habouring the two suspect bribe taking ex-PKR men(the case has been quiet lately and the two would probably be set free ultimately). Therefore, we can see BN is willing to do thing at any cost just to gain control of Perak(see who is power crazy). The people are angry and the strong protest from PR is because they represent the people of Perak to fight for justice. What PR's demand today is to dissolve the DUN, that is the demand of the people. In contrary, BN choose to cling on to the power (real power crazy) by any other means except for a snap poll.

No one says that PR must be the government of Perak. What people want is a fair and democratic way for them to choose the government. If BN wins in the the snap poll, by all mean, there is no reason for PR to fight for the control of the state again.

I hope Najib and Zambry will understand this simple reason from now on and don't always say they don't understand and pretend to be the victim in the Perak drama. In fact, BN stands a good chance to win back Perak because quite a number of Malays seem to believe that the devil DAP majority PR state government will sideline the Malay race if PR continue to rule.

Like it or not, the Malay is the majority in the state. If their votes swing back to UMNO because they believe only UMNO can protect them, that is their rights as voters. PR just have to work harder to convince the Malay that they too can protect the Malay or can even do better. When the black Obama can protect the interest of his fellow white Americans. Same logic can apply to Malaysia too.

So BN, please be gentlemen and don't choose to be a political snatch thief!

Umno Assemblymen Are Hopeless

Today,May 14 MalaysiaInsider.com reported that Penang Gerakan chairman Datuk Dr Teng Hock Nan was criticised for proposing the Perak state assembly be dissolved as his comment can cause friction in Barisan Nasional (BN).

Of course the criticism come from no other than Umno reps. The Kubu Gajah assemblyman Ahmad Zainuddin Raja Omar said that BN has the majority voice in Perak and Perak's crisis is due to PR's refusal to accept the fact that they have lost the majority. I think that is Ahmad Zainuddin's personal view which is not really make sense because BN has only 28 assemblymen plus 3 "friendly" voices. BN will not accept the trio at the moment because the 3 have integrity issues (two of them pending for corruption charges). Hence BN does not have the majority. Bet you, the 3 defectors will lost their seats if the by election to be held in the respective constituency.

The next cartoon network character, the Umno information chief cum Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Ahmad Maslan said it should be explained to the people of Perak why BN had the right to govern the state as BN had the majority in the state assembly and he would explain every issue pertaining to the Perak political crisis during his visits to the states soon. Excuse me! being the Umno information chief doesn't mean your information is reliable. In this internet age, people would rather read the non main stream news platforms to obtain information rather than relying on "information from the Umno infromation chief". Furthermore, Malysian are more matured nowadays in their thinking. I guess Ahmad Maslan may still achieve his intention by going to the malay heartland to scare the kampong folks. In the urban and semi urban areas, no way Umno can talk their way through because the rakyat already known Umno's dirty tricks.

To win back people's trust, Umno really need a big overhaul. Umno can not lie to rakyat forever.

One Malaysia Destroyed One Perak

As I mentioned yesterday, the court ruling is for show only. First of all, it is amazing how fast the court of appeal can response to Dr Zambry appeal case on stay of execution on the High Court ruling that Nizar is the rightful mentri besar. If I'm not mistaken, since the beginning of the legal battle between PR & BN in Perak, this is the second time the court does BN favour by putting their case on fast track. Today when the court of appeal passed the ruling, they could not even fix a date for the hearing. When Nizar filed a case against Zambry, Nizar has to wait but when Zambry filed a case against Nizar, the court has suddenly become so efficient, as if the court of appeal has no other case to handle. Isn't it bias and ridiculous?

So, when the police, civil servants, sergeant at arm in the assembly and even the palace are all aligned with BN. How could PR win in such an unfair stuation?

The BN has started all this nonsense by enticing the 3 ADUN to "crossover". The interest of the Perakians have never been BN's priority. They have ruined the state administration because they did not plan properly before snatching the control of the assembly from PR. Everything is done in a hasty manner, just to make sure Najib have something to be proud of and take over the country's leadership with his head up. Now, he has nothing to offer on how to solve the problems in Perak. He leave it to the "MB", Datuk Zambry...

Nizar The Perak Menteri Besar, So What?

The federal high court today ruled that Datuk Seri Nizar Jamaluddin is the real mentri besar of Perak. Some said this is a pleasant surprise because many have expected that the court would rule in favour of Zambry.

I still sceptical about the independence of our judiciary system. I still not convinced just because of this particular verdict. In the previous few cases in relation to the Perak constitution crisis, the court ruling have been to BN's favoure. Today's ruling though is a set back to Zambry's administration but there is nothing to stop Zamry from removing Nizar in the shortest possible time. BN can just call for an emergency assembly sitting to table a motion of no-confidence to remove Nizar. The Ace is stil in Zambry's hand.

Nizar also said to be seeking an audience with the Sultan but the latter is not in the country. So, the situation is not to PR's advantange. There is no big deal in being declared as the legitimate owner of the state executive because PR simply don't have the majority in the state asembly.

PR should not be overjoyed and they should have thought of the strategies going forward, regardless of the court's verdict. These two days is very important to Nizar. Time is really short...
