Utusan Malaysia Biadab?

This is how good our "main stream newspaper" could be. They willing to cost the front page just to "scold" people. Utusan Boleh...

By the way, the Umno goons should make use of BN's very own "internal communication channel " to resolve the isssue the BN way. :) sound familir...But we all know this won't happen because the law is in Umno's hands. They can "cakap tak serupa bekin".

Constitutional Crisis in Malaysia – The Forum

This post is a bit special as I only described my 'experience' at the forum.

Yes! I attended the forum but was quite disappointed because Datuk Seri Nizar was not personally present. The participants could only hear him through a pre-recorded video and towards the end, online audio Q&A. Below are my encounters.

Before entered into Tropical Inn, I noticed there were 3 policemen guarding outside the building but they were not arounf when I left the place at around 11pm.

The forum hall was jam packed. When I first arrived there, I walked straight to the front row seats because it was quite "empty" and no signboard to inform the public that that row was not for the ordinary people. After I seated for about 5 min, 2 familiar faces walked towards where I seated and took their seat, they were Dato' Zaid Ibrahim and Mr Yeo Yang Poh, just beside me. Ha ha, I have never had such a 'close proximity' with a high profile politician (I mean Dato' Zaid). For Mr Yeo Yang Poh, I know who he is but I wasn't sure what was his involvements in politics. To me, he is a 'big' lawyer (for the fact that he is the ex-BAR council chairman) and an intellectual of course. All of them proceeded to sit on the the stage a while later.

As usual, the forum did not start on time and a few glitches here and there which delayed the forum. No big problem though. Datuk Nizar's pre-recorded video, which was the first speech was quite lengthy, he explained in detail what happened in Perak.

Although there were four panelists, most of the time we heard Dato Ziad & Mr Yeo spoke. The gist of the speeches are,

"It is almost lawless in this country. BN can do whatever they want to achieve their purpose. They can ignore the constitution, influence the judges, influence the palace, influence SPR, influence the police, practice corruption and etc. All Malaysians who have concience should reject BN and send them a clear message through votes that corrupt practices are no longer be tolerated"

Dato' Zaid look a bit tired and he explained that he was just flew back from Sibu. He needed to drive back to KL afterthe forum. In fact, he excused himself to leave at around 1030pm. Though, he answered a few questions during the Q&A.

Overall, the forum is of no "wow" element to me. What the panelists said were the same appeals that they made to the public though the online media.

P.s. The organiser promised to post the edited video clip on Youtube. But I tried searching for the past 24 hours but to no avail. You may try your luck later:)

“Constitutional Crisis in Malaysia – Why 2 Menteri Besars in Perak?”Forum

Wee Choo Keong! Please Resign As MP

I'm sad to see the PKR MPs leaving the party one after another. The reasons quoted for leaving the party are quite similar and standard, they all claimed that they lost confidence in PKR party leadership. But Wee Choo Keong's timing of resignation was really bad, it is hard not to link to the upcoming Sibu by-election. Why now Mr Wee? What is the different if you tender a day after the By Election in Sibu? Why do you want to help BN now? Is BN a better choice for you now? So do you think BN is less corrupted now? Wee Choo Keong should not because of his own issue with PKR leader and then rock the PR boat. It is hard to believe that your resignation is not motivated by BN's money.

Wee Choo Keong cited the main reason for his resignation from PKR is because of the way PKR & PR government handles the scandal in Kuala Semesta Sdn Bhd (KSSB). Come on! you are serving Wangsa Maju parliamentary, not a Selangor state assembly. Those issues you quoted are all at state level. Hence, national issue should be your priority.

Of cause a corruption is a corruption, be it happen in the state or federal level. But it is unconvincing for you to leave PKR just because of KSSB. Please quote me more corruption cases in the PR government to convince me that BN is better. Let me put it very bluntly, if both PR and BN are equally corrupted and if I must choose one from the two, I will still vote for PR.

I have no faith in you too, Wee Choo Keong! I voted you because of PKR. So please resign as Wangsa Maju's MP now! I only want a candidate from PR to represent Wangsa Maju, whoever he/she may be.

Eventhough PR may lose if there is a by elecetion in Wangsa Maju, I would rather PR lose with dignity rather than lose because of defection by its MPs.
