Utusan mislead readers

I read this in today's Utusan online version and I got a shock that how Utusan trying to mislead readers. Looking at the title, one would think that UKM ranked world nuber 31 best university.   

UKM tempat 31 universiti terbaik dunia

KUALA LUMPUR 30 Mei - Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) menduduki tangga ke-31 carta universiti terbaik dunia mengikut Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) QS-World University Ranking 2012/2013.

Naib Canselor UKM, Prof. Tan Sri Dr. Sharifah Hapsah Syed Hasan Shahabudin berkata, pengiktirafan QS iaitu syarikat penarafan berpangkalan di London itu adalah bagi kategori universiti berusia bawah 50 tahun.

"Pengiktirafan itu menjadikan UKM satu-satunya universiti tempatan yang tersenarai dalam kelompok universiti terbaik daripada beribu-ribu universiti di dunia.

"Sebagai universiti yang masih muda, UKM membuktikan kecemerlangan dalam saingan dengan universiti dari Amerika Syarikat, United Kingdom, Australia dan banyak lagi," katanya kepada pemberita selepas perasmian Sambutan 40 Tahun Fakulti Perubatan UKM, di sini hari ini.

Majlis dirasmikan oleh Yang Dipertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir selaku Canselor UKM. Turut mengiringi baginda ialah Tunku Ampuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Aishah Rohani Tengku Besar Mahmud.

Sharifah Hapsah berkata, penilaian QS itu dibuat berdasarkan pencapaian dan kriteria seperti penyelidikan, penerbitan, populasi tenaga pengajar dan pelajar.

"UKM sudah mencapai pelbagai kemajuan termasuk menjadi universiti yang melahirkan pakar perubatan paling ramai di negara ini," katanya.

Sehubungan itu, beliau berharap kerajaan akan terus membantu usaha meningkatkan kewibawaan UKM sebagai universiti disegani.

"Hasrat kita selepas ini adalah untuk berada di dalam senarai 10 universiti terbaik," katanya.

Sejak penubuhannya, Fakulti Perubatan UKM telah melahirkan 5,144 doktor perubatan, 2,814 doktor pakar dalam pelbagai bidang serta 94 doktor falsafah.

Zahrain Mohamed Hashim-Stupid MP from Malaysia

The New Straits Times, one of the mainstream newspaper in Malaysia, controls by the ruling party, Umno, reported in 2009 that Xenophon, an Australian senator being anti-Islam and supportive of the "lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender" (LGBT) movements. Zahrain, an ex-opposition Member of Parliament (MP) for Bayan Baru constituency who betrayed the Opposition pack as well as the voters, was "quick" to comment. He made the following comments without verifying for the facts.

Zahrain said "Xenophon not only was very outspoken against Islam, but also defended the LGBT issue.

“Should we let someone like Xenophon influence our culture and moral values through politics? By confiding in Xenophon, is Anwar also supporting the LGBT movement?” he asked.

“I also challenge Pas’ ulama to question Anwar on why he sought Xenophon as a confidant, as clearly Xenophon stands against Islamic values.”

Now the truth prevails and the New Straits Times has to apologies for fabricating the story by intentionally replaced the word "Scientology" with "Islam" in Xenophon's statement. This is slanderous. The New Straits Times has committed a crime and Zahrain is the accomplice.

Please vote this ass hole Zahrain out in the 13th General Election. Plain stupid MP.

Umno's Race Politics For Their Own Survival

Umno has learnt that it can easily get the Malay votes by championing their "rights" and by playing the race and religious cards. Previously it got the non-Malay votes by scaring them with the spectra of May 13 and made used of the leaders of the BN component parties to influence their respective ethnic groups.

But in 2008, thanks mainly to the internet, many Malaysians realised that BN was essentially made up of a bunch of crooks and thieves who were siphoning off their money on a massive scale and sent a clear message through the ballot box. The many scandals (e.g. Altantuya, IPPs, NFC, Scorpenes) and the revelations by the AG indicate that in 2011 the BN thieves and their cronies could have stolen a whopping RM60 billion. Most Malaysian are disgusted and fed up with the BN thieves and these crooks can sense that they might lose the next elections and be brought to justice. Hence they are likely to use every dirty and crooked method they can think of to remain in power.

NFC Scandal

It is ridiculous! The National Feedlot Corporation CEO, Mohammad Salleh Ismail says the ‘renegade staff' were wrong in their allegations. Why blame the whistleblowers for NFC's problems? If NFC has nothing to hide, then there isn't anything thing to fear from the information given by the whistleblowers.
In order to protect the whistleblowers, the police should instead investigate the information revealed by the whistleblowers. And the identity of the whistleblowers must not be revealed as all costs.
Since it is the auditor-general (AG) mentioned NFC's mismanagement in the audit report. If Mohamad Salleh has any bone to pick, he should pick it with the AG and not his staff or any other person.
Knowing how things work in Malaysia, I guess the whistleblowers will be investigated instead and the culprit will get away while the innocent and small-fry get persecuted.

Muhyiddin Yassin, we would like to see how intelligent are you to resolve this problem. So far, your comments on the NFC issues has reflected inferior quality in you as DPM.

Save Malaysia! Muhyiddin must go!

We Support Malaysiakini & Malaysia Insider

I must admit that MK & MI may be opposition prone, they may have sensationalised issues but at least they don't lie like what Utusan did. I think that is the very basic prinple in journalism. We a readers knows best and will focus on the issue rather than the way the issue being brought up.

For Ezam to wage a jihad against MK & MI, I wonder who is Ezam to do so? I find that the term "jihad" has been abused by our politicians to justify the wrong thing they do. What about launching jihad against those who are using a mosque to spew hatred and threats of violence?

Strangely, at least not in my memory that believers from other religions ever threatened to burn down other people's premises. Why do we have muslim who behave like a ganster in a civilised country like Malaysia? Ezam who threatened to 'burn down' the two news portals are behaving no better than the hooligans in England who caused so much damage to the country's image.

So far, the issue has yet to be concluded and Utusan is no angel in playing up this issue. When these people speak, their source information is always quoted as "based on a reliable source". They have not provided any credible evidence or allowed the people whom they accuse to defend themselves in an open court. Isn't this against Islam? .

People who claim to be Muslims and want to speak on behalf of Muslims must first undertstand what Islam is all about. It takes only a small number of immoral muslims to damage the reputation of the majority. People like Ezam and Zulkifli are nothing more than a political prostitute, they are damaging the image of Islam and Muslims. They prostituted themselves to serve UMNO.

Ezam is the one politicised the matter, and he is a senator. Please bear in mind that not only you can launch jihad, non-muslim or muslim with the right mind could also send you to hell and we don't tell you how, when and what we will do......sound familiar?

P.s. After all the shouting outside the state mosque, I hope Ezam did not drink water until Maghrib. Don't break the fasting rules in the name of jihad. Your god is watching!.

Censorship On "The Economist" & Utusan

Kalau ikut standard tapisan atau suntingan Kementerian Dalam Negeri terhadap Majalah The Economist. Utusan, yang selalu menyebar sentimen rasis, fitnah dan berita palsu akan jadi seperti debawah pada muka hadapannya.

Anugerah Ibrahim Ali dibidas

Adakah UiTM, sebuah universiti tempatan yang dibiayai oleh kerajaan sanggup menggunakan wang pembayar cukai, untuk menggalakan sikap perkauman? Adakah UiTM sekarang nak melatih puak pelampau seperti Ibrahim Ali?

Apakah kualiti yang dipunyai oleh Ibrahim Ali yang boleh diiktirafkan? Sebenarnya, Ibrahim adalah individu kontroversi. Sikap pelampaunya telah menjejaskan perhubungan antara kaum dan tidak harus dijadikan teladan bagi pelajar-pelajar UiTM.

Satu demi satu kedidakadilan berlaku di negara kita, adakan kerajaan BN pedulikan! Adakah kita berani untuk membantah di depan UiTM? Adakah kita berani untuk protes di pejabat Perkasa?

Saudara saudari sekalian, kita rakyat Malaysia perlukan pilihanraya yang bersih dan adil untuk memastikan BN dihalau dari Putrajaya!

Thaniah Kepada Semua Yang Menjayakan Perhimpunan Bersih 2.0

Syabas! keberanian para perserta Bersih 2.0 yang menjayakan perhimpunan.

Jasa & pengorbanan kamu akan diingati!

The Police Created Traffic Jam Ahead Of Bersih 2.0 Rally.

The police have set up roadblocks along major roads in the Klang Valley, causing massive peak-hour traffic jams this morning, stupidity in the highest order! This act is an apparent effort to foil the Bersih rally planned for Saturday.

These are unnecessary blocks erected by PDRM cause the loss of billions dollars due to jam, delay to work and school, over heat car, stress, losses in business around the area and etc. The worse it was done at the peak hours!! Obviously, the BN government wants to teach people a lesson. This is the way BN Government’s response to retaliate the BERSIH supporters who mostly from the urbanized areas.

So, who really wrecks the business people and disrupts productivity.

Please STOP the HARASSMENT towards the BERSIH and ordinary rakyat. Harassing the people will only deepen the wound. Such tactics will only make the peoples determination stronger to vote out the BN on the next GE. Times have change and the BN leaders have not.

Lets Support Bersih 2.0 Rally

We support clean and fair election. We support Bersih 2.0 Rally!

We condemn the bastard racist group called "PERKASA" for opposing clean and fair election.

Bersih 2.0 & Najib

UMNO is desperate. Najib is now resort to the same trick he used in the 1987 Kg Baru rally to scare off the Chinese. Najib was the Umno Youth Chief then who warned the Chinese reporters that he could not guarantee the safety of the Chinese reporters who were at the rally location... Now, he made use of , PERKASA, an UMNO agent to warn the Chinese again. Ibrahim Ali is just a spokesman, the real devil is UMNO who is behind all these, it aims at stirring up racial sentiment.

Whether or not UMNO takes action against Ibrahim Ali, UMNO will eventually be the winner. If UMNO were to take action now against Ibrahim Ali, UMNO will appear to be “intolerable towards racism” (the fact is they take so long to act). If UMNO doesn’t take action now, Ibrahim Ali will continue to stir the racial sentiment as per UMNO’s agenda. This will help UMNO to regain some Malay votes that lost to Pakatan Rakyat during the General Election 12.

My take, UMNO will continue to allow Ibrahim Ali to create trouble until the days when Najib is about to call for General Election 13, Ibrahim Ali will be arrested for whatever reason. This will help UMNO/BN to gain some non-Malays votes. With this, UMNO will be the ultimate winner.

UMNO is Malaysia’s Number 1 public enemy.

No Minister Post For MCA? Who Cares?

I’m not impressed with what Najib said about the Chinese representative in the government. To me, everything comes out from the stinky mouth of the Umnoputra are about racism. This is Umno core value.
We live our lives as usual, with or without MCA minister. Only the MCA cronies want to fight for a minister post. It should not even be an issue if there is no Chinese representative in the cabinet. Rightfully, a person who is appointed as a minister should be colour blind when he carrying out his duties. He should not have give preferential treatment to any race group. Apparently, Malaysia has its own standard where everything is race based.

Personally, I think it is OK not to have Chinese ministers in the cabinet, on the ground that the the cabinet post allocation is not base on merit. These less important minister portfolios were given to MCA just something symbolic under BN’s power sharing spirit. Hence, it makes no different who is there to serve the people. i.e. I mean, non-MCA chaps may do a better job

As a rightful Malaysia citizen of Chinese descends, it is regrettable that the Chinese, known for being excellent in both business and finance related fields, were not appointed as ministers for the above ministry since 1974. For instance, after Tun Tan Siew Sin’s resignation in 1974, there was no non-malay ever appointed as Finance Minister (except for the Mamak who appointed himself. I insist that mamak is non-malay, no matter what they claim themselves to be). Same in the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI). After Dr. Lim Swee Aun in 1969, the minister posts were held only by the candidates from Umno.

I’m puzzled, if people like Muhyiddin Yassin can be appointed a minister for MITI, I don’t see any reason why MCA’s men not qualified for the job. I believe this happened because of Umno’s racist core value rather than there was no competent candidate from MCA or other BN component parties that can take up the post.

If Umno dares to ignore the Chinese appeals. Go ahead and fight only for the Malay votes which are also shared by PKR & PAS. See if Umno can continue to rule without the support of the chinese.

Utusan's frontpage news is a joke

Today's Utusan frontpage is about Eskay religious oath on the sex video clip. Why is this so important until it can occupy almost the full page? Is it true that they worry about someone who is immoral going to lead this country soon? The fact is, Anwar is not even half way to Putrajaya. Why is Umno so desperate?

It is clear that Umno is trying to do thing at all costs just to bring down Anwar Ibrahim.

It is worrying, the direction our country is heading toward.

Perkasa! just like Utusan. Like to talk without facts

In response to Perkasa’s protest at MCA’s Head Quarter and their Secretary-General’s claims that “Malays leaving country too due couldn’t get a job offer from the private sector”. It is again shows that Perkasa is good at twisting facts upside down (because in their mind, Malay is Tuan so they can say whatever they want, even if it is wrong). For the claim that Malay too is leaving Malaysia, I’m sure there are. But is Perkasa here to magnify the maybe 0.5% or 1% of Malay leaving the country? Is Perkasa’s findings is more prestige then the one published by World Bank. Maybe Syed Hassan can share with us the numbers, especially what are these overseas Malays are doing. Don’t just talk without facts.

On the other hand, I hate to think this but is has become very clear that the Malay in this country has been greatly influenced by the mamaks. In Penang, we have the joker KIMMA head and now NGO Perkasa’s Secretary-General. Of course, don’t forget the father of the racist who led this country for 22 years.

In fact, these mamaks have one thing in common, they keep reminding the Malays that they cannot compete with other races and they must depend on government’s hand-out. Be aware, the mamak is not leaving the country. They are here to stay.

The Ugly Barisan National

BN has lost its mind. When people voted Pakatan Rakyat into power, BN not happy and trying to, at all costs take back the states. First in Perak and now in Selangor. Does BN really respect rakyat's choice of the government of the day?

It is no brainer, even BN would not appoint a PR friendly candidate to replace the Chief Secretary, Mohd Sidek Hassan? I urge the BN and gang, including sultan's private secretary Mohamad Munir Bani to stop all these nonsense and do not manipulate Sultan's statements.

If BN wants to win back the heart of Selangor's voters, do it the convincing ways instead of sabotaging the PR state government.

Nevertheless, if the appointment of Mohammed Khusrin Munawi as Selangor's state secretary is Sultan's decision, because Tuanku think that Khusrin can work well with the current Selangor Menteri Besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, by all mean go ahead to do it. Sultan cannot be wrong and we citizen must believe that Sultan must have considered this thoroughly and put Selangor interest first before everything else.

Daulat Tuanku! We all love you!

Malaysia Police Intimidation?

Haha! I learnt from Utusan Malaysia by putting a question mark behind the title in order to escape the responsibility. This is what Utusan good at.

I read this news from Malaysia-Today.net. Well! I'm not sure if the policemen's behaviour consider "intimidating". In my opinion, Pamela Lim should have refrained from challenging the policemen. While I think Pamela has the rights to record the scene, she should have just asked for the summon to be issued to her quicker rather than arguing on other things.

One thing we can't get an answer from the video clip is what happened before the video clip were taken (whether the policemen were rude or intimidating). But to me, the two policemen's behaviour were not unacceptable. Nevertheless, I do have some doubts as in in why the Policemen were so hesitating in issuing the summon? Also, why they wanted Pamela to follow them to "Balai Polis"?

P.s. I'm worry for Pamela Lim as her personal details are exposed (IC number, address, car plate etc).

Nazri's Malaysian First

“I’m Malaysian first and malay second, does any bigot have a problem”. The remark is short and sweet. it is nice to hear it from an Umno Minister. Anyway, I just want to enhance Nazri's statement. Non-bigot will not have a problem with Malaysia first. In other words, there are bigots around. The most prominent and shameless bigot is Muhyiddin Yasin, our non-performer Deputy PM.

But if we see it from another perspective, is Nazri here to challenge Muhyiddin's? If this is the case, Nazri’s political life will end if Muhyiddin takes over the premiership from Najib in future.

Lets go back to Nazri's remarks. Eventhough people sing & praise Nazri but I’m still skeptical with the things mentioned by any Umno leader even though it makes absolute sense. Don’t forget, Nazri was not like that before. Nazri was only made more sensible remarks after apa nama Mamak stepped down.

Khairy is also another Umno leader who may sometimes say something sensible. So, why does Nazri need to say these sensible things? Why should he offends the cowardly Awang Selamat gang and the apa nama ex-PM? One of the reasons for Nazri to do that is for his political survival. His view will earn him a place should PR takes over Putrajaya in the next GE. But, at least, Nazri is not wishy washy like the PM in the 1Malaysia concept.

Nazri, I support when you sheild your boss from TDM’s attack. As I mentioned before, people see TDM as the one contributed to the Malaysia development was because he was at the right place and in the right time. If Tengku Razaleigh was the one who took over from Tun Hussein Onn, he could have done the same or even better. TDM also did a lot of harms to Malaysia during his time (please read the book called “The Maverick Malaysian” by Barry Wain). Our country was rich in resources. TDM could have made use of the country's resources properly when he was in charged, not as if Malaysia's money is his own piggy bank. So, do not only remember TDM for the Penang Bridge, Twin Towers and KLIA as there are more underexposed scandals behind the beautiful "success" stories.

What I suggest is for Nazri to challence Muhyiddin for the Deputy President post in the next Umno party election. Should the Umno members decide drop him, then it is better for Nazri to quit Umno earlier.

Mahathir permata yang bersinar? Apa Itu?

Kolumnis, Mohd. Razlan Muhammad Rafii kata beliau terkejut apabila membaca satu artikel yang disiarkan di dalam ruangan Akhbar Cina yang diterjemahkan oleh Utusan Malaysia. Kenapa mudah terkejut? Cepatlah pergi jumpa doktor and makan ubat lah!

Masyarakat bukan Melayu pun sudah biasa dengan Utusan Melaysia yang sentiasa mengapi-apikan isu yang kecil dan memainkan isu perkauman. Apakah akhbar tidak dibenarkan menyuarakan kesedihan dan rasa tidak puas hati pada apa nama.. Dr M. Apa gunanya seorang Perdana Menteri yang telah memimpin negara selama 22 tahun tetapi objektif NEP masih tidak dapat di capai? Saya pasti kalau tiada Dr M pun, pemimpin Umno yang lain seperti Tengku Razaleigh, Tun Hussein Onn and Tun Musa Hitam pun dapat mencapai apa yang dibuat oleh apa nama Dr M. Saya rasa Mohd Razlan ini tidak tahu baca bahasa inggeris sehingga dia tidak tahu apa yang Dr M buat sepanjang 22 tahun ini. Pergilah cari perterjemah buku Barry Wain.

Kenapa orang bukan melayu tidak boleh ada pandangan tersendiri? Tak boleh buat kritik ke? Berdosa ke nak kritik Dr M? Kenapa orang bukan melayu kena berterima kasih pada Dr M, seorang PM yang besifat perkauman.

Saya pun, tidak bersyukur dan berterima kasih kepada Dr M. Apa yang kamu boleh buat terhadap saya? Hingga hari ini, hanya seorang PM sahaja yang saya bersyukur, ianya Tengku Abdul Rahman, PM Malaysia yang pertama.

Saya tidak faham kenapa orang melayu asyik sangat mengelar orang lain "kurang Ajar". Saya amat kesal terhadap Mohd Razlan begitu biadap. Pandai angkat kaki saja!

Kalau tiada Dr M, Malaysia hari ini akan lebih maju dan rakyat lebih bersatu padu lagi.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!

Selamat Hari Raya to all Muslims in Malaysia

Umno Government Takes RM 5 Billion Tax Payers Money To Help The Malays

Read this news from Bernama, your heart will sink as deep as mine as a Malaysian. In the name of helping the bumi to own shares, the Umno government takes the tax payers' money as if it is their own piggy bank, a good RM5 billion.

Again and again, the non-malays are just being bullied/take avantange of by the Umno government and sad to say that there is nothing we can do, absolutely nothing that we can do to stop them from destroying this country. Umno what a political pirate!

Apa itu 1Malaysia? Siapa buat Malaysia Kaya dan Siapa buat Malaysia Miskin?


Below is the news from Bernama
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The government has set aside RM5 billion through Ekuiti Nasional Berhad (Ekuinas) established by the Finance Ministry as an initial allocation to help bumiputeras own selected shares.

Deputy Finance Minister Senator Awang Adek Hussein said at the same time, the allocation is also aimed at ensuring bumiputera equity does not fall into the hands of others.

"For example, if there are bumiputeras wanting to sell their shares because they are retiring from doing business, the government can consider assistance," he told reporters after a breaking of fast event at Kampung Sungai, Perupuk in Bachok last night.

He also said apart from this, priority will be given to bumiputeras wanting to own shares in government-linked companies (GLCs).

He explained that the move is not intended to grab shares owned by the other races as some are fearful of.

Increase ownership

Awang Adek said it is also in line with the directive of Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak who wants to increase the ownership of shares among bumiputeras to ensure they do not lag behind in comparison to other races.

On the gold dinar and the silver dirham sponsored by the Kelantan state government, he said the people will not gain any benefit but the company producing it will profit.

He also indicated that the people of Kelantan should not be confused by the introduction as it did not differ from purchasing gold items in shops.

"I believe for those with the means, it is better for them to purchase gold items, which at the least can be worn by family members apart from the cost of production being cheaper compared to the gold dinar," he said.
