Romantic post-riot conversation (and a question to journalists)

Romantic post-riot conversation (and a question to journalists)

GF : Why you never called me? Don't you know how worried I was? You ok or not?

BF : Aiya, you haaar...I didn't even go to the demo la. Why you so ganchiong one?

GF : How would I know, I'm just worried, ok? Eh, can you be a bit nicer to me? Never call me for a few days, now still want to be garang with me. Do you know that you are being too much?

BF : I'm nice enough already leh. I'm really busy la over here. I send you flowers that day what? Still not happy?

GF : Ok ok...at least you are safe....your friend never asked you to join him at the demo ka?

BF : Told you already, I'm not the type who waste time like that.

GF : Ya ya ya...
      : Eh, I think the demo thing will backfire on Pakatan because of the rioting.

BF : You sure or not? It could be the other way around, ok? It's all over the internet that Bersih was a success and the riot was started by the police.

GF : Eh, there are videos and pictures of the rioters starting the violence, ok? Even got videos of them beating and kicking policemen.

BF : That's what you say. The Pakatan people are saying something else. They are now saying the police beat not only protesters but also reporters.

GF : Why would the police want to simply simply beat up reporters? They are crazy or what?  What would they gain by doing that? Must be that they mix it up between the reporters and rioters. The reporters wear their accreditation card or not? Do they themselves take part in the demo?

BF : How would I know. You asking me all these for what? Eh, can we talk about something else? I think you spend too much time reading all these political nonsense in the blogs.

GF : Oooo...your Pakatan side lose this one, you don't want to talk la. Very clever. Ok lor, good also.

BF : eh eh eh....I'm neutral, ok? You harr...

*The conversation then went on for another half an hour, mostly discussing how to reduce weight and why Chinese girls love to eat pork knuckles.

** By the way, this guy in this picture is a journalist beaten up by rioters who were part of the Bersih 3.0 crowd on that day.  His name is Mohamad Azri Salleh. He works as a cameraman for TV AlHijrah.

    You all journalists who want to wear black to police Press conferences because you claim the police intentionally beat up you people during the riot, you all don't want to wear black also ka when Ambiga and her Pakatan friends have their Press conferences? Don't you all want to show your solidarity with Mohamad Azri too?

Agent Provocateurs in Maroon

Agent Provocateurs in Maroon

It is the standard operating procedure of Pakatan cybertroopers to divert an issue being discussed if they find themselves unable to win an argument.

If that fails, they would instead try to out-shout you by extolling the evilness of BN or Umno or police or  whatever else under the sun.

In the case of Saturday's riot in KL, they know they can't divert from the issue. People were so upset with the barbaric behaviour of the rioters that no matter how hard they try to divert the issue by telling people how expensive Rosmah's handbags were, the trick simply wouldn't work.

So, the next best thing was to try blaming everything on everyone else on the government's side. In this case, the primary target was the police.

Here is an example of a comment from my posting Punish them at the ballot box (and in court), by this blog's regular troll, a DAP cybertrooper who identify herself as Kluang girl.

AnonymousApr 29, 2012 11:31 AM

Yes Big Cat,
Everyone looking forward to the ballot box!

Police in plainclothes throwing things and shouting Reformasi slogans to provoke the crowd. Also beating up innocent people recording violent police brutality acts with their camera-phones in front of bystanders...

Before you go into racial propaganda again, let's get out all the photos of the instigators out there for thorough investigations to identify all these planted police agent
provocateurs...I'm sue you'd love to know the truth too rite.

By the way, did your "man" tell you what happened on the ground?

~ Kluang girl

I highlighted in bold the point she made about the need to identify the police elements within the rioters rank who instigated the violent conduct of the mob.

Ok lah, since she was so insistent about the presence of police agent provocateurs, let's see where they are in this sequence of pictures displaying the Pas' Unit Amal members leading a band of rioters in a rush against a police human chain in front of KLCC.

You see, members of Unit Amal who were supposed to be in charge of security for the "peaceful demonstration" were the ones in maroon t-shirts. They are known to be very disciplined and know each of their members. So, the possibility of them being infiltrated by agent provocateurs should be almost impossible.

Well, see for yourself lah here, who are charging who. 

Funny really, normally in western countries its the protesters forming the human chain and riot police charging at them with batons, shields, etc. but here the "peaceful" protesters are the ones charging at the police, swearing, pushing and kicking.

And here is the video of this incident

As you may observe, the policemen, who were not in riot gear, purposely broke their human chain to avoid an altercation which would have happened if they had stood their ground. You can hear them telling each other, "biarkan, biarkan...."

Hooliganism takes many forms on that rioting day.

I found this highly entertaining video clip at http://apakata.blogspot.com/2012/04/peserta-bersih-kena-sound-dengan.html.  Thanks sis.  Pay close attention to her expression near the end of the video.  Priceless.

Punish them at the ballot box (and in court)

Punish them at the ballot box (and in court)

I'm now hoping for PM DS Najib Razak to call for the GE13 before the end of next month.

The sooner, the better.

Itching now to cast my vote after what happened in KL yesterday.

Just want to get it over and done with. I think the rakyat who are sensible people would have realised now what kind of people these Pakatan goons are.

The so-called Bersih 3.0 riots really opened the eyes of many, especially those in the middle ground, of the dangers faced by this beautiful Malaysia.

First there are the naive egoistical idiots such as Ambiga who think that the rest of us must abide by what they think is right for this country. They ended up being the willing tools of Pakatan at the rioting yesterday.

Despite the government bending backward to please them, they had insisted to have all their demands fullfiled. During the rioting last year, they were offered stadiums outside of KL but they insisted on Stadium Merdeka. This time they were offered Stadium Merdeka, but NO, they want Dataran Merdeka. There would be no end to what they want, that I'm sure.

Then there are the Pakatan leaders whose modus operandi is simply to exploit everything under the sun to get the power they are craving for. Yesterday, they were the ones who instigated the crowd to break the barrier at Dataran Merdeka which triggered the violence. They want the publicity and to create an impression that the government is evil and repressive.

However, when things got out of hand due to the overzealousness of their supporters, none of them are willing to bear responsibility.

As of now, the Pakatan cybertroopers are working overtime to contain the fallout of what happened yesterday. They tried to blame everyone except people from their side. They even tried to blame the violence on the injured policemen when it was so clear from the evidences that they were the ones who resorted to barbaric and violent behaviour.

Now, there is one way to punish these vermins and their leaders. AT THE BALLOT BOX. We need to make it clear that we do not want leaders who encourage people to go to the streets to get what they want and resort to violence on others who do not subscribe to their idea of what is good for this country.

And as to why the leaders of these mobsters should also be punished by the laws, go to this SatD's posting

The Schelling Incident: Ground Zero of BERSIH 3.0 Riot 

 and watch the video which clearly shows who was the person who instigated the rioters to break through the barricades at Dataran Merdeka which triggered all the violence.

The so-called peaceful protest in KL (additional videos and pictures)

The so-called peaceful protest in KL (additional videos and pictures)

This is a sad day indeed....you all watch this and judge for yourself.

The police car eventually had an accident in front of Sogo and the policemen inside beaten up by the rioters.  And they instead claimed that the police car ran into one of the rioters.

My prayers are now for the seriously injured policemen at the HKL ICU and their family.

ADDITIONAL VIDEO CLIPS AND PICTURES

They even hit the policeman on the driver seat after he can't move any more.

And in case anyone still dispute that the rioters did not injure any policemen, watch this -

 Upon a request by a pro-riot commenter, here is the picture of the policeman who drove the mobbed police car as he was dragged away by his "rescuers". Note that the "rescuer" in the yellow t-shirt has his hand on his throat -

And for bonus, this is the picture of Mohamad Azri Salleh, the guy wearing the halmet who tried to help the injured policeman in the car but was beaten up by the rioters. He is a cameraman of TV Al Hijrah.

UPDATED 2

Resisted the temptation to call him. He doesn't like me calling him when he is with his friends.

Just send him a text asking whether he was at the demo. He send me a reply - "Nope".  Just that single word. I'm not sure whether to believe him but I have to accept his reply as it was and told him to take care and be safe. Don't want to be the nagging type.

I'm actually still worried. Surfed for more news from KL. Things seems to be quite blur. Blogger Double YY reported that most Chinese demonstrators, who are actually DAP members wearing their yellow "Ubah" t-shirt were at Petaling Streets scaring away the tourists.

I look carefully at the photos and was glad I can't find him among the crowds.

THIS ONE JUST IN VIA NST ALERT at 3.13Pm
"NST 28/4: Police have started firing tear gas and water cannons at Dataran Merdeka after protestors broke through the barricade in the Bersih 3.0 rally."

So, here we go again...I'm really really praying that he was telling me the truth and not in the middle of this madness.

UPDATED

It's past 3am, woken up from my sleep. It's so hot. Took a shower to cool myself. Checking on the latest on what's happening in KL. Saw some news about the commotion near Dataran Merdeka about midnight.  Some of the demonstrators had already tried to breach the security barrier around the place. They even tried to stop a police bus from going into the area.

I immediately worried about him. Felt like calling him but stopped myself as I don't want to disturb him in case he was sleeping.

Anyway, the reports indicated that almost all the demonstrators who seems so eager and cannot wait till tomorrow to have the demo were Malays. A report even stressed that not a single Chinese was seen in the crowd. So, I don't think he was there.

Of course it's a bit sad to note that when it comes to these sorts of nonsense, it's always the Malays who were more advanced than others. They seems to enjoy these sorts of things and see them as a fun thing. I guess Malays have yet to shed their "minda berhibur" (entertainment mentality?). Probably that's why Harian Metro is their number one newspaper.

Wouldn't it be nice if Malays are also the most advance in other fields such as science and technology etc etc?

I bet, during the demo tomorrow, the Malay idiots will be on the front row again. Good also, that means if he is to be stupid enough to go to the rally, he will be at the back with the other smart Chinamen.

Of course, better still if he just sleep off the whole day at home la...

ORIGINAL POSTING

I'm hoping that he is not going to join the rally at Dataran Merdeka tomorrow.

Of course I'm worried about his safety. That sorts of rally can easily turned violent. But I know he will not listen to me one. Stubborn boy. He said he is hanging out with his best friend that fanatical DAP guy in KL this weekend. And that guy came all the way down from Penang to join the rally. So, he will most  likely join him tomorrow.

I actually got all stressed up about this today. He didn't say he is going to join the rally but he didn't deny it either when I asked him. All I can manage was making a sad face. Can't ask too much. He can be quite garang some times.

Sometimes I don't know why I fall for him. Not very handsome, garang, don't love me that much, bully me all the time and always not around. Chinese some more. DAP supporter some more (although he always denies it and scold me whenever I calls him that).

Don't know lah...

All I hope now is for him to be safe and that everything will be alright.

Of course it's not much of a hope because the whole purpose of the rally is to create havoc.

It's not about fair election, or anti-Lynas, or anti-PTPTN.

It's about a show of force and creating a perception that the current government is bad and suppressive. That's all.

Perhaps the only participants of tomorrow's rally whose motive are genuinely what they say to be their's are the LGBT crowd. Unlike the others who use a fake struggle to achive their political aim, the LGBT people are using a fake political aim to achive their struggle, which is the legalisation of free sex.

Well, at least that's how I see it.

Idiots from Selangor and Dr Boo's troubles

Idiots from Selangor and Dr Boo's troubles

Earlier today, JB mayor issued a statement saying that an application by a group of people to hold a rally at Dataran Bandaraya here on Saturday had been rejected.

The group had meant to have the rally here in support of the one to be held on the same day at Dataran Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur.

The mayor said the place will be unavailable on that day because it is going to be used for a futsal and netball tournament which had been planned since earlier this year.

He suggested for the group to apply instead to the management of Larkin Stadium to have their fun time there.

Personally, I think Mr Mayor was being super polite. I would not have even bothered to reply to a bunch of funny people.

These people are funny because they are actually from an association named Persatuan Masyarakat Perihatin Selangor.

Why they need to come all the way from Selangor to demo here? Not enough space over there ka?

Go join the crowd in KL cannot ka? Sibuk here in JB for what?

I suspect that this got something to do with the attempt by Kit Siang and son to crowd out Johor DAP chief, the handsome Dr Boo Cheng Hau and his Indian tonto Norman Fernandez.

I think you all know already about Kit Siang's slick move to bring his cronies to contest in Johor in the coming election. It was actually an opening gambit to sideline the popular Dr Boo who may become a threat to Guan Eng if possible major gain by DAP is made in Johor under his leadership.

Seriously, who else in the DAP rank who is young, smart, capable, a proven leader, hard working and got the gut to stand up to Guan Eng and his father? You tell me lar? Let's not even mention the handsomeness of Dr Boo, ok?

Oh please don't even try to mention that sniveling spineless Tony Pua as a comparison to Dr Boo. For all I care, it was him who send those idiotic Selangorians here to demo.

Dr Boo, being a sensible Johorean may had defied orders from party leaders in KL  to organise the rally here causing them to send their own team down here.

Why Dr Boo and not Johor PKR or Pas leaders? Because Dr Boo is the sole Johor Pakatan leader who have real clout, ok? What? That pathetic MCA reject Jui Meng? Come on la, the washed out man got nothing la compared to Dr Boo. It's a fact that Johor PKR are beholden to their DAP counterpart. Pas leaders? That Sallahudin fella just come back to Johor and yet to know nuts about this place. The rest of Johor Pas leaders are simply cartoonish, ok?

So, all things considered, Dr Boo may likely shine and this the Lim family simply cannot take. That's why we end up almost having a bunch of funny Selangor people taking over our padang at Dataran Bandaraya. Semak only.

Tough job for Pas' Unit Amal

Tough job for Pas' Unit Amal

It looks like the planned demo at Dataran Merdeka this weekend will be a really rojak affair. From what I have been reading, the groups are all backed by Pakatan people and their allies and they are -

1. Anti-Election Commission group- supposedly led by Ambiga but actually engineered and led by DAP, PKR and Pas leadership and consists hardcore members of those parties.
2. Anti-Lynas group- supposedly led by self-professed environmentalists but actually belong to DAP leaders as a vehicle to unite especially disgruntled members of the Chinese community.
3. Anti-PTPTN group - supposedly without leaders and consists of undergraduates but actually controlled by PKR cadres and mostly consists of mediocre Malay students and a lot more who are not really students such as bald women.
4. Pro-LGBT group - led by some LGBT people and consists of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals etc etc. They are  sanctioned to join the demo by Ambiga and her Bar Council buddies, I think.

NOTE : Pas' Unit Amal people who will be in charge of security at the demo must be careful not to chase away those weird looking and sounding LGBT people. They are in this demo with you all, ok? Really, they are not from Umno. I know you are all anti-homo but for this one you all kena tahan, ok? This is part of your jihad to topple BN, ok?

Errr....got some more group is it? I heard there are - such as anti-Felda group and anti-Pengerang group, but those were not confirmed yet. See lah how.

DBKL already said they can't have it at Dataran Merdeka but of course they will not listen. So, it's going to be another hu ha hu ha again. A bit of water cannon, a bit of tear gas, a bit of play dead .....

Just hope there will be no real death like last time.

Ok, if I'm in KL I wouldn't be going to down-town KL this weekend. I will probably be shopping at my favourite shopping centre, The Curve. Maybe look around for things at Ikea and have that cheap hot-dog they are selling. Love to put lots of mustard on mine ;-)

Chinese students are better

Chinese students are better

I read with particular interest this posting Why Chinese students stay away from anti-PTPTN demo by Rocky of Rockybru.

It was based on a translation from a Nanyang Siang Pau's editorial about paying back what one owes.

In this case, the PTPTN loan which payment was demanded to be waived by a bunch of Malay "students", backed by some Malay politicians.

These Malay "students", most likely being asked to do so by the politicians, demand for the government to provide free education for university students. Good one, they must have thought to be turned into a political point for the coming election.

Anyway, the article reminds me of a conversation I had with someone close to me about nine years ago.

We were arguing about all those freebies and scholarships given to bumiputera (especially Malay) students. Especially those undeserving mediocre students.

I did my degree without getting any such financial assistence, but since she was sorts of attacking the Malays, I felt it was my duty to put up a defense.

It was the usual bumiputera defense about being left behind and given the assistence to catch up with the more advance and richer Chinese. I know it was a bit of a flimsy defence but at that time it was all I can thought of.

Deep down inside at that time, I know she was right. We can't continue pouring money to help undeserving people. They will just ask for more and more. They are just incapable of thinking responsibly and will always believe that everyone else need to give them everything that they want. These are the shameless Malays. These are the type that are camping at the Dataran Merdeka.

Don't they realise that the money they demand be given to them actually belongs to all Malaysians including the poor who pay the taxes in one form or another? Yes, that include the Petronas money. That one is also duit rakyat, ok?

Don't they have any maruah claiming that they can't be paying back that money once they graduated and have a good job?

Don't they realise that they already have it easy?

The person I had that argument, for instance, spend two years as a waitress at a restaurant in Singapore before saving enough to continue her studies in Taiwan. No scholarships or even loan despite her being among the top students in her school.

If she is a Malay, definitely she can get a place in UiTM, complete with PTPTN loan. I am certain she will gladly pay back the loan once she finished her studies, and probably think how wonderful of the government to provide such a loan facility for her.

But as it turned out, the tough road she went through turned out to be a blessing for her. It trained her to be tough and street wise....much better than me, in fact. She is now successful and as far as I am concern have the bragging right of being the winner of our past arguments on this matter. Well, good for her.

To all those stupid Malay "students" camping at Dataran Merdeka - STOP BEING STUPID. NOTHING IS FREE IN THIS WORLD.  

Men are horny bastards

Men are horny bastards

Note: This is a continuation of Men are bastards

Yup, as I had wrote, men are bastards. All of them are like that. No exception. They will cheat on women if given half the chance. They are weak creatures who are susceptible to the flimsiest of temptations.

So, girls, keep them on tight leash, ok? It's our duty to prevent them from making a fool of themselves such as letting themselves be video taped and seen by the whole world of having disgusting things such as a crooked penis.

I know it is not easy, but do try your best, ok?  

Well, by now, everyone probably know already about the allegations of moral impropriety and related corruption against Minister Shafie Apdal.

Ambiga and her upholding rule of law Bar Council buddies most likely had told their Pakatan friends that it should be innocent until proven guilty....hehehe....ok ok just kidding, of course no such thing.

This is after all too juicy. An Umno vice-president allegedly caught being naughty with a Bollywood looking starlet. Got over RM1 million from don't know where also in the center of it all. The allegations indicated that he paid her RM100k per go. Very expensive squeez liao.

But really la, the guy have not even been charged in court yet. Maybe he had even married the girl. We don't know that, don't we. Like other guys who are chicken shit of their wife, he may had kept it secret. No video also. Just a police report by a driver. You know lah these days, people lodge police report la, make SD la, then fly off to India or London.

Of course, all that are irrelevant. This is politics where winning people's perceptions is all that matter. Facts doesn't really matter.

In this game, I have to give it to the Pakatan people - they are simply the best. BN people are no match against them, not even by a long shot. They can convince people that they are angels despite clear evidence which shows otherwise.

Nope, that's not him, that's someone who looks like him. Confirm must be Umno's doing - Only Pakatan people can pull this off. Respect lah.

Chase the non-Chinese speaking teachers out of our schools. They are BN's agents send to destroy the identity of our schools....errr, what? We are racists? Where got one? We are Malaysian first la. We love the Malays, especially Pas people. What? Pas people are Muslim first? Don't worry, that one can adjust la.

Pakatan people are good, are not them?

Back to Shafie, I  think the guy is as good as fried. Guilty or not, he is already judged based on perception. He is an Umno guy, and not a Pakatan guy. Pakatan guys got video or DNA still ok one. They are that good.

The mould had been set that way. People don't care about the truth. They want to be entertained.

They want to believe in juicy stories. But the juice must be of the right dosage. Having fun with a cute foreign prostitute not juicy enough. Having fun with handsome coffe boy too disgusting pulak, But having affair with  an artis is just nice, don't you think? Lots of money allegedly involved some more.  That's why Harian Metro is the best selling newspaper in the country. They know how to get the right dosage of sleeze in the stories. If ever BN want to catch up with Pakatan in this department, I propose they get help from Harian Metro people.

At the end of the day, they are all the same. Pakatan men or BN men, they are all the same. Given the chance they will take advantage of the situation. They are all cheats at heart. It's a matter of whether we believe in their guilt or otherwise. It's our perception which will decide their fate. Not facts. As far as facts are concerned, men are all horny bastards. Political affiliation doesn't make any difference.

The only difference is that we are fimiliar with the modus operandi of one gang. So, easier to catch them. The other one we don't know yet, but inidications seems to suggest that they are even worse. At least that's how I see it.
  

Things which will topple BN

Things which will topple BN

The Pakatan people have been cooking up a lot of issues over the past few months. All very powerful ones leh. Environment lah, education lah, land acquisition lah, etc etc. Need to keep the momentum going. Election getting nearer.

Some of these efforts were good for them, but some backfired and burned their ass.

The successful one, to me, was the anti-Lynas demo. It got the attention of especially the Chinese community, and roped in Chinese-own newspapers to back them. Biggest demo attended by mostly Chinese participants. Very united united. Of course it got nothing really to do with environment. Pure politics la that one. Well, never mind, once in a while what.

The backfired one was that DAP-backed Dong Jiao Zong rally on Chinese education. It really made DAP looked like a Chinese extremist party. Want to chase out non-Chinese speaking teachers from Chinese schools....what kind of demand was that if not a racist one? Malays of Pas and PKR really were in a spot because of that one.

The anti-PTPTN campaign is also not so good for them. Want to give free education for university students they said. Well, what they did not say was that such a thing will cause the government to increase taxes. Not a bit ok. Want to abolish the PTPTN loans and use Petronas to finance it they said. Like that Petronas will surely be in trouble within a few years. Those students who support Pakatan and demo at Dataran Merdeka apparently didn't realize that they look very irresponsible and selfish - study want free, after that don't want to help their younger ones by paying back the money they used. I don't think the hard working, tax paying uncles and aunties want to support these ingrates.

The Pakatan's attempt to derail the Pengerang petroleum hub project in Pengerang also will likely fail. The locals, except a few who want extra compensation money, support the project which will transform Pengerang into a major oil and gas center in the world. It offers better future for their children, who will have better employment prospects in their own hometown. No need for them to be coastal fishermen anymore to stay in their kampung.

I'm not sure what will happen to the planned Bersih 3.0 demo in Dataran Merdeka. Probably another hu ha hu ha like last time. In all probability, it will make them look like a bunch of hooligans. How many times want to demo? Causing problem only. Want to turn KL into Bangkok is it? Or is it like those Arabs? Syria? Eh, this is Malaysia la. We are not much into these hu ha hu ha thing. Once in a while can la, but too many can fed-up one. Want to go shopping on weekend also susah.

Whatever it is, I don't think all these nonsense by the Pakatan people can topple the BN government. Those are actually only to make their presence felt. Keeping the fire burning, so to speak. The participants of those demos are mostly their hardcore supporters only. Ok lah, with the exception of people like Marina Mahathir, who wants to look young, cool and liberal. Being anti-establishment is very fashionable liao. I really understand. I was like that also when I was young and stupid.

To me, what actually can topple the so-called evil BN government are the small small things which makes people angry with BN. Simple local stuff.

I give you a real example, ok?

There are this row of trading premises in Yong Peng own by the local authorities. The shops were rented out to a bunch of traders a long long time ago. These bunch of traders being a bunch of lazy bums, rented out those premises instead to another bunch of traders. They collected the rents and mostly lepak at home watching Indonesian sinetron. The traders who actually occupied those premises diligently pay their rent to these bunch of lazy people. What they did not know is that those lazy bunch never paid the rent they were supposed to pay to the local authorities. Now after about 15 years, the local authorities decided to set things right. They evicted the traders who have been doing business there over the donkeys of years and offered the premises for new tenants. The evicted traders pun apply lah to rent back their premises. Unfortunately, none of them got their premises back. The local authorities, for whatever reasons which only themselves know, gave those premises to a new bunch of people. So, the original hard working traders got angry lah.

Guess who they blamed for the insensitivity of the local authorities which caused them to lose their source of income?

Ya, very smart....BN lah. Tonnes of votes for BN lost that way. Really, that's how it works. And that's how BN going to lose....if they are going to lose the election lah.

This one very difficult to address, ok? The civil servants not sensitive or whatever, BN got the blame. What to do, that's how it is. Of course the same principle doesn't really apply in Pakatan-ruled States. Civil servants not performing well, it's the BN federal government's fault. The Pakatan State government got nothing to do with the mess lar.  Police shot dead a teenager fleeing a police chase in the middle of the night in Shah Alam, blame the BN federal government. Got some more, but enough la. Yup, that's how things are nowadays.

To be fair, there are also these small small things which are the sole fault of BN people.

This one also a real story.

A BN YB in Batu Pahat, who is known to talk too much go and appoint a ketua kampung without consulting the grass-root. The new ketua kampung had lobbied for that position but he is actually not well liked by the locals. This YB arrogantly thought that just because the place is a BN stronghold he can do whatever that he wants. Now the orang kampung are angry already. They planned to boycott BN in the coming general election because of this matter. These used to be hardcore Umno supporters. Simply simply lose votes like that.

Eh, YB, in case you are reading this, Batu Pahat got this big Pas markas some more, you know or not? You do these sorts of nonsense, I think you will become a one-term YB only lah. Your area is a border line case only, you know or not? If the Malay votes split, you stand a good chance to lose, ok? Go check the latest updates on how solid the Chinese votes will go to the Pakatan people in Batu Pahat please.

About those who keep their promises

About those who keep their promises

PM DS Najib Razak was in Batu Pahat today to launch the Jelajah Tunaikan Janji carnival.

I'm not feeling well, so cannot go lah.

Just read about it in a posting by BigDog here PM Najib: Kita menepati janji bila berjanji

According to BigDog, there were 30,000 people at the gathering, but I read somewhere else where it was reported that there were about 70,000.

Hmmm....BigDog is definitely not an Umno bootlicker then. Otherwise he would had put the attendance at more than 100,000, isn't it?

Never mind lah. I did called a journalist friend who was there and he indicated that BigDog's figure seems to be a bit small and the 70,000 was more like it.

Whatever it is, I'm sure it was indeed a big crowd. Even 30,000 is a big crowd what.

Well, this picture seems to indicate that the crowd is big and enthusiastic enough.

Since it was a carnival like function, I guess it was something like the Jom Heboh type. After all, it was organized by Media Prima, the parent company of TV3.

I'm not much a fan of that type of carnivals, but it seems a lot of people love it. So, I guess it was not such a bad effort in providing the leaders with an opportunity to touch base with the rakyat.

Since it was about keeping promises, I think it's good that the rakyat be reminded that BN have throughout the years kept their promises. No matter how bad we think of them, BN have always done their best to fulfill their promises.

Maybe not all, but most were indeed fulfilled. Otherwise we would had kicked them out a long long time ago. We, Malaysians are not a stupid bunch, aren't we?

In fact, we almost did that in 2008 after that hopelessly hopeless Pak Lah gave us false promises only later on to brake those promises. The worst was when he promised to follow-up on efforts by Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to keep the rakyat safe and the country's sovereignty intact, only later on to royally screwed up everything.

The same promises con game is now being played by the Pakatan people. How many of the promises they made to win in Penang, Kedah, Kelantan, Selangor and other places here and there have been fulfilled? Do look around you and try to remember what they had promised us?

People in Penang for instance, have your life improved so much since DAP took over? Do you eat better? Sleep better? Live in a bigger and better house? Things are cheaper in Penang now? Ok la, if you want to say so, Guan Eng is better looking than Koh Tsu Koon, I will try to swallow that la but other than that, what else had improved?

People of Kedah, how about you all? Things are better now is it? The paddy fields yield better now that alim ulama like Mat Sabu become leaders of your State?

People of Selangor, garbage collected on time now or not? Water got enough or not? Everything ok? Port Klang now look more beautiful or is it even worse than it was?

Ok, Kelantan people, I don't want to ask. They have been living under Pas for too many years. I don't think it's fair for me to ask them these sorts of questions. Nanti they got angry with me pulak. 

Najib had over the past three years did his best to restore things. Indeed he have been successful beyond expectations. Yet, the journey is still far and the biggest hurdle is just around the corner  The GE13.

Let us see whether we all people could differentiate between those who keep most, if not all their promises and those who just say want to do this and that but suruh buat haram don't know how to do them properly, or buat buat forget pulak after they got the power.   

Marching with the pot belly pig

Marching with the pot belly pig

So, looks like we are going to have another Bersih rally.

Honestly, I'm not surprised.

The Pakatan people need to keep the people interested in their bullshit. That's why they are going to have all these rallies. Lynas la, Chinese education la, Pengerang la, ya di da ya di da....

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that it's all just to counter BN's momentum of support which is snowballing as the general election comes ever nearer.

All those talks about environment ka, electoral reform ka, whatever ka are all bullshit, ok? All that matter is for them to topple the BN government.

Najib can follow whatever they say or give whatever they want, and still they will not stop the nonsense because those things about environmental protection, better electoral system or whatever else are not what they really want. What they want is power. That's all that they want. The rest - let me repeat, are all BULLSHIT.

Sorry aarr, today I feel like being harsh a bit. Bad mood leh. Nobody seems to love me today....never mind.

Ok, do you all think they will be happy if the Parliament Select Committee adopted all their demands, even those which doesn't make sense?

Come on la, let's get real. They will just come out with another excuse to have their happy happy rallies. That one they say only la. Really. Up to you all la want to believe or not, but that's how I see these people and their nonsense.

To me, it's the only way for them to keep themselves relevant as the general election draws near.

Well, you all just wait and see. My prediction is that, this is going to be the story line -

They are going to demand to make noise at the Dataran Merdeka. The authorities will say no and proposed for them to have it at the Shah Alam Stadium. All sorts of nonsense will follow. Demand to see the Yang DiPertuan Agong, meeting with the PM, meeting with the police etc etc. In the end, they will still go and have their hu ha hu ha in downtown KL so that they can have that dramatic effect. Police going to fire a few tear gas and a bit of water cannon. Then they are going to claim that the police are brutal, the government despotic etc etc. Marina Mahathir also going to have some fun promoting herself as a cool liberal, something like that daughter of Fidel Castro. Well, to cut it short, the whole circus again lah.

But, really la. Do you all think the ordinary people will be impressed ka with all these crap? I mean, for those people who lead an ordinary life, work hard for a living, thankful for what they have, and grateful for the good life that they have in this country. The Pakatan people keep saying our country is so bad that it's like Zimbabwe. Really ka? That bad ka? How many of those Pakatan people have ever been to Zimbabwe to make the comparison?

Our electoral system so corrupt ka? Is it like North Korea? Or is it like China? Errr...China, the next number one world economy got election ka? Eh, you all check yourself lah.

Eeeerrr....the funny title....eerrr, that one I simply simply put only. Just for fun. hehehehehe
You all remember this nice looking pot belly pig or not? Familiar or not?
Nice piggy piggy :-)

DAP will win more seats in Johor

DAP will win more seats in Johor

I had written several times on the foolish notion that Pakatan stand a chance to capture Johor in the coming general election.

My contention is simple - you can do whatever you want with Johor, turn it upside down, this way or that way, and still the State will be ruled by BN after the next general election.

It is just a matter of whether BN will win big or small, or whether Pakatan will win more seats or be totally wiped out.

Even the most hardcore Pakatan people in Johor know that this is true.  


Pakatan currently have one parliament and six State seats in Johor.  The parliament seat is DAP's Bakri while the State seats are DAP's Skudai, Senai, Mengkibol and Bentayan as well as Pas' Maharani and Sungai Abong. BN have 25 parliament  and 50 State seats.

At the rate they are going now, my bet is that in the next general election, Pakatan will win one parliament seat and not more than 10 State seats.

Ok, let me explain later why Pakatan will get more State seats.

Firstly, these are the seats I expect to fall to them - for Parliament, it will be Kulai; for State seats, they will be Skudai, Senai, Bukit Batu, Penggaram, Pekan Nenas, Bentayan, Jementah, Bekok, Mengkibol and Yong Peng.

Do take note that Pas' Maharani and Sungai Abong are not in my list of Pakatan's probable dominions. Bakri is also not in it.

Yes, except for maybe one or two of those seats going to PKR as tokens, the rest will be DAP's. Pas will totally be wiped out. They are just there to break up the Malay votes.

 Why?

It's because these constituencies in my list are those with clear cut Chinese majority and Umno there are having problem keeping things together. Kulai for instance got almost 60 per cent Chinese voters and the Umno division there are in serious trouble

I had repeatedly written in this blog that the only real problem faced by Johor BN is the perceived unhappiness of the Chinese community with the ruling coalition. Nothing else for the Pakatan people in Johor to really make noise. Case in point, is the fact that Johor PKR even have to appoint MCA reject Chua Jui Meng as their chief to pander to the Chinese community. It's the Chinese votes they are banking on. Nothing else.


It's also the only basis behind Pakatan's claim that they can achieve something in the State in the next general election.

But of course they cannot openly admit that. They still need as many non-Chinese votes as they can get to break the especially united Malay vote bank in the State which is still more or less solidly behind Umno.

So, they have to come up with something like this Cooking Lynas-style nonsense for Pengerang

Apparently The Mole had pick up the drift here

Southern discomfort

And today a group of Pakatan-backed people filed a case at the court to stop the petroleum hub project.

No need for me to write more about it here as you all can go to those links to understand better about those Pakatan engineered Pengerang issue..

These sorts of  Pakatan bullshits will go on until the next general election as a camouflage for their real agenda. Protests against Lynas, support for Chinese schools, demo for electoral reform etc etc. All the same. It will go on and on and on. All just bullshit, ok? The real issue is just about politics and Pakatan taking over Putrajaya. Nothing else.

Dr Yap's cap ayam doctorates and the smart DAP (UPDATED)

Dr Yap's cap ayam doctorates and the smart DAP (UPDATED)

As I had feared in this posting Racial extremists endangering Chinese schools, the foolish decision by Dong Jong Zong to collaborate with the DAP in making several unreasonable demands, including some, which are outright racist in nature has put the Chinese schools and its system once more in serious danger.

For every action, there will be a reaction. Racist demands such as pressuring the government to immediately remove all non-Chinese speaking teachers from the schools will definitely backfires.

Now, the general perception among most non-Chinese (even among the majority of non-Chinese Pakatan supporters) is that the Chinese educationists are demanding for Chinese children to be educated totally within a Chinese environment.

That, if you ask me, is the end result of the stupid DAP-backed DJZ rally in Kajang that day.

And also, those who are against the existence of Chinese schools find it as an opportunity to renew their attacks and find faults with the Chinese education system.

The easiest target are the Chinese educationists themselves, many of whom are ill-equipped to deal with such attacks.

 The first casualty is Dong Zong chairman himself whose credentials were put under the microscope here -
Dr Yap should resign if ..

Serves him right for using the Chinese schools, which he was supposed to protect, as a tool in DAP's fight against BN.

Dr Yap is now easily the symbol of Chinese chauvanism - a cheat, arrogant, boorish, narrow minded and racist. They don't say it out loud but, just look at Dr Yap's picture and think about his questionable doctorates from a university of ill repute which he has all these while proudly bandied to project himself as a leading Chinese educationist . He didn't even bother to get his cap ayam doctorates from China but got those from the USA.

 Doesn't he now looks like all those labels ?

Well, that is the image of the Chinese educationists now. among many who previously did not care much about the Chinese schools issue.

Maybe Dr Yap and his gang don't care about all that. Go to hell with all these non-Chinese people, they may have thought. The Chinese are after all the political king maker in this country now. We can get whatever we want. We got DAP, the unifier of Malaysian Chinese, backing us what. See, the DAP people came in the thousands to the rally in Kajang that day and almost chase out that useless Wee Ka Siong what.

But with such an attitude among the guardians of Chinese education in this country, what will be the future of the Chinese schools?

Do they think the BN government will let itself be thereatened like that and bow to their racist demands?

Now, the call for the closure of the Chinese schools will be louder than ever with more will be joining the Satu Sekolah Untuk Semua chorus.

As all these are going on, DAP is at the moment sitting smugly by the sideline as DJZ took all the flak They know they have now secured thousands more of Chinese votes for backing the DJZ rally.

DAP said they support the DJZ rally, but when DJZ came under attack for making those racist demands, I don't see any DAP leader coming to their defense.

This is something all Chinese school graduates and those who support their schools should remember when DAP project itself as the defender of the Chinese community. and its education system.

They will cheer as you march to the front line and reap the rewards of your support, but when the shooting starts and the chips are down, they will be nowhere to be found.

Think again. Do you all ever remember DAP being sincerely supportive of the Chinese schools? How much have that party contributed to the Chinese education system?

(UPDATED)

I wrote too soon about the DAP not standing by their Chinese brothers in arms. Blogger Stop the Lies just posted this  Racist DAP ADUN Ng Wei Aik Comes to Yap’s Defence 

But, "He was quoted as saying that the Chinese community was not interested on whether Dr Yap was holding any bogus degree." This Ng really thinks the Chinese community don't care that the person leading their community's educationists is a conman? Is this true?

I have always believe that the Chinese always put the highest priority on education. How can they let a conman represents their education system?

Sorry about that. But, whatever it is,  how I wish Guan Eng was the one making the statement in support of DJZ's demand for all non-Chinese speaking teachers to be immediately removed from Chinese schools.

General election at a later date

General election at a later date

Everyone keep saying that the general election is around the corner.

 Is it?

My last estimate was in June.

Now I'm begining to believe it will be much later.

Why?

I believe BN have finally found the right momentum for its build-up towards the election.

The coalition may want to let it rolls a bit more and only call for the election after everything were absolutely right for a BN's win.

In Johor, for instance, preparations for the election have been going relatively smoothly. Johor BN chairman Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman is keeping a time table for his visits to the peti undi areas with possible election in June as his deadline.

If the election is pushed towards the end of the year, the Johor BN machinery will have extra time to tie up all the loose end.

I think by now, BN chairman DS Najb Razak could see that it's ok to have the election a bit later as BN are really making good progress especially among the rakyat at the grassroot level.

Pakatan on the other hand are showing signs of fatigue.

* PKR's internal conflict is slowly but surely tearing the party apart. Given a bit more time they will probably implode.

* Pas has totally lose all signs of direction after abandoning its original Islamic state agenda. Now the not so hardcore party members are not even sure whether theirs is an Islamist or socialist party. No to implementing sharia, yes to a welfare state. Can change change one.

* DAP is the only Pakatan party with proper strength and direction at the moment. That is based on its not so hidden Chinese communualist agenda. But then again DAP seems to be making a lot of unforced errors of late. The latest being its ill fated joint-venture rally project with Dong Jong Zong, which backfires on them as it just revealed the party's true racialist credentials. As I had mentioned in my previous posting, some Chinese were not really comfortable by the racist demands of DAP and DJZ. They were also not so impressed by the DAP supporters, who behaved like hooligans at the rally.

 I believe, that the longer it takes for Najib to call for the general election, the more mistakes DAP will make over the coming months.

So, I think because Najib is one smart fella, he will call for the election much later this year.

My only problem with that is that I have to postpone my plan to go to Taiwan. Next year probably. Well, never mind, I'm not in a hurry.

Sickening government-salaried anti-BN people

Sickening government-salaried anti-BN people

I was in Malacca today due to some family matters. The place looks nice. I even got to see the little bit of what's left of the Portuguese fort A Farmosa for the first time. Took a picture there, but had to delete it later. I look fat la in that picture....hehehe

Really. Somehow I always bypassed Malacca on my travels that I do not get to know the State very well.

The last time I was in Malacca was when someone took me to Jonkers Walk about three years ago. It was just a little diversion from our drive south. We just walked around there before settling for a very nice dinner at a Peranakan restaurant. But I didn't get to see more of the place as we need to get back to JB that night. Anyway, it was a pleasantly memorable evening for me.

I am definitely not a fan of Ali Rustam, but I think he's doing well as far as tourism sector is concerned.

Well, when I return to JB this evening, I got a call from a friend inviting me for dinner. Told her that I'm on diet. Can't have dinner, but tea can la. Still I end up having tea....with Pelangi porridge. Can't resist la. Guess I will be breaching 45 kg soon :-(

My friend actually works for Irda. She, however, never reveals anything about the going ons at her workplace. Not even during the peak of my troubles with Irda several months ago.

But this time she did say something about her work place. I guess she can't keep it inside her any more. She was not complaining about Irda per se, but rather the attitude of some of her colleagues.

"I don't understand how can they be such hypocrites," she said.

She said these people earn up to RM25,000 per month for doing so little and yet they bitch endlessly about Barisan Nasional and the government.

My friend, who is an Umno supporter but not a party member insisted that she was not against people having the freedom of choosing which side of the political divide they want to be affiliated to, but in the case of her colleagues, she do not see any reason why they want to go against the government.

 "To just support Pakatan is still ok, but campaigning and bad mouthing against the government during office hours??? That's being too much la. And these people are very well paid and given high ranking position for doing almost nothing and with so little qualifications."

I advised my friend to cool off and explained to her that at least from what I know, Irda CE Ismail Ibrahim have of late improved things in that organisation. He will probably take care of this problem soon.

My sources in Irda had told me that it was less tense in their office now. Of course I do not expect Irda to completely change. But, as long as there is a will to change, that's should already be good enough for starters.

I told my friend to hang on till end of the year and see if those anti-government elements will get their contract renewed or otherwise. Probably Ismail is waiting for their contracts to expire as he do not want to rock the boat too hard. Hopefully it's like that lah....

I also told my friend that for those who are salaried by the government but insisted to go against it, mostly do so because they don't have enough things to do or rather prefer not to do their job properly. They have ample idle time and spending it on fanciful thoughts and meaningless chatters in the vain hope of sounding smarter than the next person.

Last time in the pantry:
"Eh, really you know, Rosmah must be jealous of Najib. That's why she get that girl blown up....bla bla bla."
After that one becoming too ridiculous :
"Tsk tsk tsk, this BN government really useless you know, price of petrol went up again, see, Anwar already said he will cut down the price.....bla bla bla."
And lately :
"Uh uh uh, see see, the government don't care about the environment. Die la people in Kuantan. Najib sure got shares in Lynas. If not, sure Rosmah got one....bla bla bla."

After these, sure got some more.

These people never pause and think how they get to be where they are.

I always of the opinion that these people simply talks just because it's fun to trash talk and sounds oh so important and knowledgeable.

Yes, it's true that there are corruption and abuse of power committed by irresponsible BN people, but are the Pakatan people any better? Well. most of the PKR people are Umno rejects anyway.

How sure are these people that people such as Mat Sabu are holy men? Or whether it's true that Guan Eng and gang really care for all Malaysians instead of just the Chinese and their votes?

Remember ya, DAP supports the extremists in Dong Jong Zong who want to chase out non-Chinese speaking teachers from Chinese schools. That one don't make DAP racists ka? Come, teachers who support Pakatan, please answer that one. Can or not?

These people, are they aware that Guan Eng and the gang (including the mild mannered Johor DAP chief Dr Boo Cheng Hau) called them Nazis who uphold an apartheid-like system in this country? Want to retrench them some more once they got power, because too many civil servants they said.

Still, want to support them? What is wrong with all these people?

People salaried by the BN government are mostly Malays. They get to where they are now because of the government's policies. Some grow up being fed by government scholarship because they are from some poor Malay families.

Went to boarding school, send overseas to further studies, get a cosy government job....and then spit on the very government which get them to where they are.....sheeeshhh....don't know lah.

p.s. Please note that as far as I know, Irda's police report against me is still on. So, you all please be careful when leaving your comments on this posting, ok? Thank you.

Reloaded : My choice - Johor MB

Reloaded : My choice - Johor MB

Ok, I'm giving this another try - who should be my favourite candidate to replace Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman as Johor MB?

My posting on this same topic yesterday had caused some discomfort among some good people, so that I decided to take it down. It was out of respect for those people that I did that for the first time. Apologised some more. Actually, I'm so fond of joking around that sometimes I forgot that some people have rather poor sense of humour. Bad people I don't mind offending too much, but these ones are good people and I rather not cause them too much distress.

To start with,, of course being a supporter of Ghani, I wish he could continue as MB, but I know the man now just want to retire and rest. So, let him be lah. Ghani has already done a lot for Johor. He is already 65, been an MB for 16 years (the longest serving Johor MB ever) and quite fed-up with some of those ingrates who keep on attacking him to get his post.

Now, with the general election being just around the corner, and Ghani's departure seems more certain than ever, candidates for the MB post are lobbying like nobody's business. It's actually quite intense, but fortunately it doesn't affect Johor BN's preparations for the coming general  election too much.

Ghani and his band of people continue as usual, criss crossing the State, checking and tweaking the Johor BN machinery to ensure everything run smoothly once the election date is announced. Looking at the way they work, no one would expect that Ghani is going to retire and his followers need to look for new jobs soon.

As it is typical of Johor Umno, they do fight against each others on certain matters, but the fight will largely be confined among themselves and once they need to unite, they will somehow able to do so, especially when facing external threats. Probably its good decipline and leadership which help them along.

Of course there are some exceptions, particularly in cases of absolute greed or plain selfish stupidity causing cracks within the rank. These however are exceptions rather than  norms.

As for the struggle for the Johor MB post, these are names listed in several previous postings in this blog (rearranged as according to their current chances of getting the job) -
1. Datuk Nur Jazlan Mohamed
2. Datuk Dr Latiff Ahmad
3. Datuk Razali Ibrahim
4. Datuk Seri Mohd Khaled Nordin
5. Aziz Kaprawi
6. Datuk Othman Yusof
7. Jais Sarday
8. Datuk Osman Sapian

Yup, really, Jazlan is now at number one. Khaled, who used to be at the top spot had slide to go all the way behind Razali. Those with super duper contacts at high places in KL should double check this in case you all think that I am bluffing.

However as we move along, let it be known that my choice is none of those eight guys in the list.

Mine is a very tough guy.

Nope, he is not Darth Vader. That picture is just for fun only....please aarrr....nobody get offended ya.

This candidate of mine is a tough guy because he works really hard for Umno and BN, not a glamour seeker, and had proven to be capable of administering the state's affairs. Most importantly though, this man is incorruptible. He is also arguably the only one capable at the moment of ensuring the continuation of current good works being done by the present State administration.

This choice of mine is really a long shot though and therefore his identity is not important to be revealed here.

I will just pray that PM DS Najib Razak would not overlooked this guy while considering a suitable candidate for the Johor MB post...that is, once he has to do so. 

Checking on Kamilia

Checking on Kamilia

The relatively quiet deputy to Wanita Umno chief Shahrizat Jalil, Kamilia Ibrahim is suddenly in the news.

And what a way it was for her to do so, calling on Shahrizat to resign over the cow living in the condo issue, not only as a minister but also as her boss.

It is not everyday these sorts of things happened.

For the record Shahrizat is not even resigning from her ministerial post but it was rather that her senatorial time period is expiring and not renewed.

Of course Kamilia was immediately machine gunned by Shahrizat's people. That's expected lah.

Such was the havoc caused by Kamilia's boldness that Umno president DS Najib Razak had to tell everyone yesterday to calm down and maintain the status quo.

I agree with Najib, Umno need to remain united and avoid all such nonsense at least until after the general election. They need to remain focused.

However, I do not think Kamilia's stand on Shahrizat was wrong either.

By right, Shahrizat should not wait until someone tells her to go. Her position has become indefensible as the NFC issue has become so messy.

I am not saying she is guilty of anything yet but she has indeed become a liability to Umno due to the perception that her position in Umno and the government was behind the awarding of the money to her husband and family to run the cow farm.

In politics, perception is everything. Shahrizat should know this and if she love the party more than herself (as they all always claim) she should not be dragging it along through the mud with her. She should just resign....for agama, bangsa and tanahair. After all,  the party is facing the most challenging general election in its history and it could do without being saddled with such baggage as the NFC mess.

Well, at least that's how I see it. Probably Kamilia shares the same idea as mine.

Najib is of course much smarter than me and Kamilia. He knows what is best for Umno, and I agree that since Shahrizat refused to do the honorable thing, then everyone should stick together and weather the coming storm. Everyone can always settled the issue after the general election. Well, guess Umno simply has to absorb the blows and make the best out of things.

Back to Kamilia, honestly, I don't know who exactly is she. But I think she is quite a tough nut to be so bold that she dare to tell off Shahrizat like that.

So I googled her and found her website at http://www.kamiliaibrahim.com. She may not be a "stunning beauty" like Shahrizat, but I'm quite impressed by her credentials.

Well, at least I know that she is not just some useless air head diva simply going after her boss' position lah. After all, despite being rather quiet, she managed to win her Wanita Umno number 2 post what. Must be quite something isn't she? Oh, I also like her name...sounds tough but sweet leh.

These are bits about her which I took from that website  -

- Datuk Kamilia Ibrahim is the Wanita Umno deputy chief.
- She is the Kuala Kangsar Wanita Umno division chief
- She runs a law firm, Kamilia Ibrahim & Co which was established in 1984. Previously Kamilia was a law lecturer at the Property Management Faculty of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. She completed her Masters in Property Law and Law of Restitution and Comparitive Constitutional Law.
- She also runs a Certified Company Secretarial & Management Firm.
-  She holds the post of non-Independent  Non-Executive Director of KUB Malaysia
- She is the secretary-general of PEMADAM (Anti-drug Abuse Association Malaysia.)

There are a few other things which Kamilia does. You can find out more about her at the website.

My bet is, things will get very interesting for Wanita Umno after the general election.

The Chinese slap and talk gambit

The Chinese slap and talk gambit

I have to admit that I'm at the moment feeling a sense of dread whenever I think of what's going to happened this Sunday.

The DAP-backed  Dong Jong Zong's Save Chinese Education rally looks ever more likely going to proceed.

This was an excerpt of an article by The Sun -

DONG Zong (United Chinese School Committees Association) president Dr Yap Sin Tian says the rally planned for March 25 in Kajang is just an additional means to voice its concern over the shortage of teachers in Chinese primary schools.

He said the question of it shutting its door on having dialogues with the government to highlight Chinese schools' grievances does not arise, Chinese dailies reported today.

Yap said this in response to the fear expressed by Associated Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia president Tan Sri William Cheng that the so-called "325 Rally to Save Chinese Education" might block the channel of communication between the Chinese education group and the government, at a press briefing on the gathering.


The article by the Chinese-own The Sun however did not mention anything about the DAP factor behind the rally and made it as if it's going to be purely motivated by Chinese education issue.

How the newspaper failed to see the real danger posed by the possible outcome of the scheduled rally was beyond me. OK, DJZ said they will also invite non-Chinese to speak at the rally, let's wait and see what type of non-Chinese these individuals are, and how many of them will be there.

I had expressed my fear of the whole thing being turned into a racially dividing wedge between us Malaysians in these postings -
A plea to young Chinese school graduates
Racial extremists endangering Chinese schools
DAP's Chinese back-up plan
Race relations' scary future

So, DJZ said they are still going to negotiate with the Education Ministry after the rally.

Isn't t that like slapping someone in the face and then to sit down and talk nicely with the person? Isn't that like the Israeli bombing the Palestinians (or the other way around) to bits and then calling for them to negotiate peace?

What makes the DJZ think that they can strong armed the ministry to concede to their demands? Can't they see that the government would only harden it's own stance as it will be under pressured by the other side of the divide not to look like sissies being bullied by some Chinese gangsters?

Being a supporter of the Chinese education system, I'm at a loss as to why DJZ decided to go down this path where a right thinking person will know it would not end nicely for the Chinese schools. The schools will be seen more than ever as the breeding ground of Chinese chauvinism after the rally this weekend.

What could we expect from the majority of non-Chinese when they see thousands of Chinese shouting and demanding on the streets for only Chinese speaking teachers be allowed to teach in the Chinese schools? What would they think of the Chinese school graduates after that?

The answer by the racial extremists within the Chinese community would probably be that the Chinese don't give a crap what others think of them as long as they get what they want. The Chinese are after all, the political king makers of this country at the moment. The rally is to show everyone else that if they can't get what they want, then there is a price to be paid for it.

With that kind of attitude, what will happen to this multi-racial country?

As far as I am concerned, DAP will be the sole beneficiary of the rally. It will win big among the Chinese voters for being perceived as the defender of the Chinese interests. That is all that matters to them.

My final question to the DJZ crowd - Throughout the history of the Chinese education system in this country, what had DAP contributed to the Chinese schools that now with the general election around the corner, they are to suddenly become the champions of those schools?
