Indonesian's Burning Malaysian Flag

2009-09-02T15:00:00.000-07:00

Salam,

While we are busy with the political disharmony in Malaysia our neighbours seem to be enjoying themselves. This is the time we should call for unity. All the political leaders are so busy with Perak and self interest that none of them seem to be bothered about our Nation's flag being burned by Indonesians. The only comment we got was from Najib saying that its not the act from the government of Indonesia. He also claimed that he has a very good relationship with the President if Indonesia. We don't need to know that. What the RAKYAT wants is justice. What is the Indonesian Government doing about this incident. Have they arrested these people. Can we take this incident lightly and just sit back and say its not the government so its OK. Today 10 people turn up in front of our embassy in Jakarta and burn our flags tomorrow there might be 100 the day after 1000 and god knows when will it end.

Mr. Prime Minister don't just sit back but demand your rights. The rights of the RAKYAT of Malaysia. We don't have to sit back and just watch the drama. So Mr. KJ why are u so quiet? Anwar where is your voice? Lim Kit Siang you are so critical over everything what happen this time? Karpal Singh aren't you a Malaysian?

Voice out and demand justice from Indonesia. Don't allow our neighbours to look down upon us. Our flag is not for people to be burnt its for everyone to respect. Where is the patriotism? Wake up MALAYSIA. We just celebrated 52 years of independence.

Demanding anwar to answer in 2 days

2009-09-02T14:49:00.000-07:00

Salam,
Below is what I had wrote to ANWAR in his blog. He has 2 days to answer if not this article will be on every political blog that I can find. If he replies I will put up the reply.

Salam,

May i ask as a RAKYAT why is that you started all the fuss about taking over the government last year in SEPT. You claimed that there were BN elected representative's hoping over to PR. Is the RAKYAT really your concern. From the way I see it you are power crazy nothing else. After your statement of party hoping it led to the chaos in Perak and BN used the strategy that you had been shouting out loud about. don't you realise what you had sparked is now causing disharmony in the country. Is this what you want as a leader, a disunited Malaysia? Please explain your actions.
Another thing how come you are so rich if you were clean when you were the Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister. If you are really clean is it possible to be greeted by the latest "s" class when you came out of prison after 6 years. How did your family survive. Your daughter was still studying and your wife just an MP. Sounds fishy right. Please explain to the RAKYAT.
When you were in UMNO didn't you repeatedly during election campaigns say that DAP and PAS are parties that are not genuine and trustworthy and the RAKYAT should vote for BN only. Just because you were sacked from UMNO has all that changed. The leadership in DAP and PAS are very much the same as when you were in UMNO. What have you got to say about this. Please explain why is that when you were in UMNO you said all the things that you yourself now are not supporting. Tun Dr. M, you had claimed was like a father figure to you but after he sacks you it has all changed. The accusation towards you is understandable why you disregard Tun today but what about the other words that had come out from your very own mouth when you were in UMNO. Words are things you can't change overnight. Please clarify.
I will be posting this same demands in my blog: http://asrajosen.blogspot.com/ If there is no reply in 2 days I will be put it up in all other blogs demanding an answer from you.
Salam.

Perak oh Perak

2009-09-02T13:39:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Perak is at it again. Looks like there is no respect for the RAKYAT at all. Lets look back at what happened.
1. Umno Assemblyman joins PR
2. Umno assemblyman rejoins UMNO
3. 3 PR assemblyman remain as assemblymen but declares to be Independent with pledging their support for BN.
4. With this support from the Independent assemblymen BN takes over.
5. BN's MB is sworn in and out goes PR MB.
6. Speaker is changed - From PR to BN
7. Court case followed by appeals BN wins at the end of the day.

Now the fight still continues. If I was Nizar I would just let it be. The RAKYAT is watching and if the interest for the RAKYAT is there concentrate on development. If you champion your cause that is the RAKYAT eventually the next election will show who is champion.

What BN did is not right but going back to the beginning of the issue, who started this? Simple answer which is known to everyone. ANWAR IBRAHIM. If Anwar had not shout out loud about BN representative hoping over and forming a new government on SEPT 16 2008 we would not have all this drama's. Couldn't he just wait till GE 13. But then again its ANWAR and he has never changed just so eager to become PM that he does not bother about anyone or the country.

What ever is happening in the country today with regards to the political disharmony is due to ANWAR. He is the one supposed to be blame. If there is court of law that can prosecute him based on being unpatriotic and causing disharmony in the country then please someone do so.

If the YANG DIPERTUAN AGUNG can intervene and do something about ANWAR please your majesty do so. Till this guy is around we will not see harmony in MALAYSIA. Tun Mahathir did all of us a favour by putting him behind bars for 6 years wish it was 60 years.

Selangor

2009-09-01T01:13:00.000-07:00

Salam,

The state I was born in. At that time Kuala Lumpur was a part of Selangor not Federal Territory. I have always called myself anak Selangor when referring to my origins domestically and of course proudly proclaiming myself as a Malaysian in international scenes.

Starting to feel something is bound to happen soon in Selangor. Is it going to be another Perak. Again the main trouble maker for this is no other than ANWAR. Even our Singh is King (KARPAL) admitted it clearly very emotionally.

BN says they are just finishing what Anwar started. End of the day who are the losers - again its the RAKYAT. Doesn't anyone care about the RAKYAT. During GE 12 the opposition denied BN the 2/3 majority in parliament and manage to capture 5 states (4 remaining now). How did they achieve this? Simple answer: KJ and Pak Lah. Face the fact even a goat under the banner of the opposition would have won. The RAKYAT spoke not trough demonstration and street protests the RAKYAT spoke trough the ballots. That's the RAKYAT power.

Now if an elected representative wants to move parties or support does he has the right to do so. Definitely no no no. He has to consult the RAKYAT that put him there. Have a consensus with the RAKYAT that had chosen the Representative as he or she is answerable to them. Do this people forget that not only the votes that the RAKYAT has contributed but also his or her salary comes from the tax paying RAKYAT. We the RAKYAT are your boss, we pay your salary and we are ones voted you there.

BN and PR remember this the results of GE 12 shows the power that the rakyat has. GE 13 may result to a silent protest by the RAKYAT resulting to a very low percentage turning up for voting. Do your jobs well and be concern about the RAKYAT. Always champion the RAKYAT and be a God fearing person.

MCA - EGM - Pemuda UMNO EGM???

2009-08-31T13:34:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Bravo Ong Tee Keat. Realising the problems faced by MCA he is calling for an EGM. Indeed a very smart and brave move. He is willing to put his political future at stake here in the interest of its members. This are the type of leaders we can say who are brave and bold enough to face the RAKYAT.

I hope after this Pemuda UMNO will call for an EGM. I am very sure KJ is aware that most of the pemuda dont fancy him so why not call for an EGM and get the truth out. Let the members of the Pemuda decide if he is fit to be their leader or not. We dont want the voice of the PERWAKILAN but we want the voice of the grass root. KJ ada berani ka.

Living Together for 52 years

2009-08-31T03:31:00.000-07:00

For the past 52 years years the RAKYAT of MALAYSIA have been living together. Look around us, remember the good old school days, our kampungs where every evening we used to play football , badminton, sepak takraw, "polis sentri", ting - ting and many other games. Never once we questioned each others race or religion. Never on any instance did the call of prayer from the mosque or the bells of Hindu temple annoy us. Never we had discrimination among races. A football team used to have all races. The best example was the MALAYSIAN football team where we had Soh Chin Aun, Mokhtar Dahari, Santokh Singh and Arumugam. The stadium used to be packed with all races watching and cheering for the nation. So much love we had for our country. We were a very young as a nation then and as time past by we see so much of changes and it really saddens me. If we look back when did all this start. For me it was 1998 after the sacking of Anwar that caused the split in the community.

Anwar while in power in the government had orchestrated his plans so well that he was ready for any situation. What better way to to rule a country when the RAKYAT is not well versed about their history. This will destroy patriotism. It will be easy for Anwar to control and manipulate a nation where majority of the people are ignorant towards history.

Many fail to realise that the racial issues in MALAYSIA today is the doings of politicians. When we speak about racial harmony its best that we leave the politicians out of it. The moment the politicians get involved this is what happens. Politicians are in general power greedy and live only for themselves. They do not care or bother about the RAKYAT as well as the nation. For them to be in power they are willing to sell their souls, what is the nation to them - NOTHING.

To have the same harmony which we used to have let's urge the politicians to stop making statements that are racial or religion based. When this takes place the RAKYAT are matured enough to make things work. The RAKYAT at large ask for peace and harmony and nothing else and this can only be achieved if politicians like Najib, Anwar, Lim Kit Siang and others start concentrating on nation building and focusing on issues that boost up the economy of the country.

Chat Rooms

2009-08-30T17:21:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Overheard a few friends talking about chat rooms over the net. Was rather surprised hearing their stories on how they get to sleep with teenagers and University students by just chatting over the net. I didn't believe the stories. I created an ID and was shocked in 2 hours there were offers for sex from girls as young as 19 years old.

Parents please observe your children's activities especially those studying away from home. Conduct spot checks on them especially during weekends.

I am not sure why they do this exactly I am still in the process of finding out why they offer themselves is it for money or just for fun. No matter what the reasons are I am sad as this kind of moral issues are gone unnoticed by us.

As for the adult men who are encouraging this please realise that these girls are the future of our nation and instead of encouraging them to the wrong path its best to advice them to get back to the right path.

Contribute to the nation and the religion do fear GOD as he is watching.

Silent Protest

2009-08-30T15:36:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Its common these days in Malaysia we take our grievance and dissatisfaction's to the streets, daily in the news we see people with ply cards and banners letting of their frustration. Some of these protests are in small numbers which does not really effect the public at large but some are organized with thousands participating which does effect the public where some innocent by standers being victimised at the expense of others.

Recently a new trend emerged small in numbers but touching on the sensitivity of another religion and race. This is the most dangerous act as it can lead to much bigger disaster as we all know racial and religion issues can lead to conditions that are beyond any ones control.

The best way and most effective way is to organize silent protests to be heard. This way no one will be victimised no one will be breaking the law and no one will be able to complain and definitely voice of the protesters will be heard.

The great MAHATMA GANDHI gained independence for INDIA by using this formula. This proofs how effective is the silent protest.

How to go about organizing it: Any parties that need advise can e mail me at syafiq.asra@gmail.com. I will not guarantee that I will assist all parties it all depends on the protest and grievance of the particular group. If its against the law or for self interest please do not waste your time e mailing me. I only assist groups or individuals who need advise on building the nation and doing good for others. For racists please stay away.

Salam,

Definitely this news shocked the nation if it did not I was shocked. Took leave for 2 days from the Internet and work and when i came back online I was shocked reading about the protest in Shah Alam which involved some of them carrying a cow's head to the state secretariat building.

Who ever is the master mind learnt this from the British rule in INDIA. It was very typical of the British to kill a cow and leave it in front of a Hindu temple and a dead swine in front of a mosque. This caused anger amongst the Hindu's and Muslim's and riots used to break out. Divide and rule. Wonder what the game is here. Are we heading that way. Do politicians need to go this extend to cause chaos in this country. If its not a political ploy then I think those who have done it should be very careful of their actions. As far as I know the protesters were Muslims. Islam is supposed to be the protector of all religions in the world. being Muslims the word tolerance should be the utmost priority. How we practise our beloved religion is always reflected to each and every Muslim in the world.

By parading a cow's head what has this group achieved. The protest could have been done without the cow's head. Today what Malaysians are good for is taking to the streets on every issue. Is this necessary. Don't we have proper channels to turn to. I am always against any form of protest that is brought to the streets. If there is any dissatisfaction why don't we go on a silent protest. Protests by going to the streets and causing chaos should stop, it does not bring any benefit to anyone. Silent protest write up will be coming up soon.

Anwar Ibrahim

2009-08-27T00:35:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Did you notice that in Tun Mahathir's blog comments of all types are welcome. In Anwar's blog only comments which is of praise to him will be published. I tried a few times criticizing him in the comments but it was never published.

Tun's blog i noticed there are a lot of them who criticize him and it is published. So from here we can judge who is more truthful. Anwar Ibrahim has always been a politician of self interest and is good at making use the RAKYAT with his propaganda's about people's power.

Points to be noted about Anwar Ibrahim:

1. When he was the DPM he supported the ISA but not today when he is not in the Govt anymore

2. Many a times Anwar had claimed in public Tun Mahathir is like a father figure where else Nik Aziz and Lim Kit Siang are people that we cant trust. What is the scenario today.

3. Going to prison for 6 years and being jobless, when being released he has a sun roof latest luxury car picking him up and is driven by his wife. I am surprised how a jobless person for 6 years can afford this luxury.

4. Promises made like Sept 16th what came was Sept 17th. Nothing happened and the most silly thing was he did not even bother to pull back his words. He then just said it will happen later. Who is he trying to fool. Well i think there are many fools who still support this guy.

5. What has he achieved as an opposition leader besides causing chaos on the streets and ruining peoples lively hood especially those in the tourism industry. Thanks to the global economical situation and H1N1 now we have Anwar and Friends marching the streets and discouraging tourists into the country.

6. As an opposition leader what is his role is he performing it?

Anwar seems to be in a very hurry to be the PM of Malaysia. We wonder why?

Yb's, Minister's, Adun's and Political figures

2009-08-26T11:20:00.000-07:00

Salam,

The RAKYAT are the ones who get a chance to choose and elect the YB's and Adun's during the general election. Once they are chosen into office they are given exco positions and ministerial positions to lead and run MALAYSIA. The process begins with the RAKYAT who makes the choice of whether they want this particular person in office or not. What really happens after elections. Has anyone been visited by their elected representative when the election fever is over. Do these elected representatives go to homes like what they do during campaigns.

We the RAKYAT determine who we put on the seat to represent us. Yet when we bump into this person we tend to smile and bow our heads to these people. Shouldn't it be the other way round. I noticed many times when watching news the RAKYAT are so humble and small business men tend to give away souvenirs as well as gifts to these people when they show up during campaigns. I urge the RAKYAT to change. When we cross their paths demand these elected representative to visit our homes and listen to our problems. Make sure they act towards our complaints. Demand what is ours as we are the ones put them there and its their duty to fulfill our needs. Let it be the Prime Minister himself, he should also be with the RAKYAT. There was one politician but today turned into social work that I admire Lee Lam Thye. He was a real peoples wakil rakyat. Politicians don't only think of personal growth think of the people that put you there.

I use to run a hotel in Klang Valley and on many occasions the coffee house was visited by minsters and politicians. Being in the management position I had the privilege of signing bills for my clients. Many times I was approached by the politician's PA's or right hand men asking me to waive of their bills. My respond was very simple. I think being a minister he or she earns much more than I do so its proper for this person to pay the bill and this will also help the service staffs earn a higher salary as most service staffs depend on the points that is earned monthly which comes from the 10% service charge.

Many of them brought this matter to the higher management in the hotel I used to work and I was called up for Domestic Inquiry a few times. Thank God I argued my case strongly and I got away with it. My argument here is why are these people being free loaders. If you cant afford to pay the bill in a hotel go to the mamak shop or somewhere cheaper don't trouble people who are doing their jobs.

If you notice I dont address the politicians with Dato or Tan Sri, I simply use their name or just address them as MR. Why I do this is because in order for me to respect them I think they should first learn how to earn the respect by being humble and understand peoples problem all the time and not only during campaigns for election.

I hope we can have one MP or ADUN that will be an example to the others. Honest and kind and work for the RAKYAT. Be humble and down to earth and always be around when the RAKYAT needs you. God is always watching remember that.

Salam,

Another chaos in BN, Chua Soi Lek expelled from MCA. The ship is sinking further. Is this a clean up or is it going to tarnish BN's image even more. We have to wait and see what the impact is going to be. The RAKYAT have to decide.

MCA sees Chua as a liability and got rid of him maybe for the betterment or worse we have yet to see. What about their counterparts UMNO and MIC. UMNO has KJ which is a big liability and MIC has SAMY as a liability as well but nothing is being done.

The only way BN is going to survive is to use a broom to sweep clean all the corrupted and big headed politicians. For the sake of the nation and to build the confidence in the RAKYAT please do something.

MIC

2009-08-26T10:56:00.000-07:00

Salam,

With Permatang Pasir and Kartika on the news many have forgotten about MIC elections coming up. Not much is being said about this mainly because I think the RAKYAT is sick and tired of all the political parties in Malaysia. At times its like a joke where there is nothing much being done except for politicking. One after the other we hear and see elections in political parties, defection, resignations and other political issues. Will this ever stop.

Anyway back to MIC, the president of MIC still wants to be there. After the humiliation defeat in the past general election Mr. Samy still doesn't want to let go. After conning his way trough to maintain the presidents post he is now campaigning for his people. This guy is amazing and I wonder why are there some people still supporting him. I cant understand how blind can people be.

Many say KJ is a liability to UMNO and BN. I do agree with that but don't leave out Samy he is as guilty as KJ. Come the next general election and Samy is still the president of MIC will definitely make the RAKYAT thinking twice to vote for BN.

All politicians who know for themselves that they are a liability just be brave enough to walk away. Be responsible towards the demands of the RAKYAT. Many people know the fact that the lifeline of BN ruling Malaysia is coming to an end and to extend this lifeline there is only one way, cut of the liability which is SAMY and KJ.

If this is not done we are going to have a new government ruling Malaysia in the upcoming general elections.

SALAM.

Permatang Pasir

2009-08-26T08:04:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Not really shocking but a sad note to BN another lost. Expectations were high altough it was known that Permatang Pasir is an opposition strong hold.

Admitted by the number one man of UMNO that the lost was because of the candidate himself and some other factors which he decined to elobrate. Now the nation is wondering what are the factors that contributed to the loss.

The RAKYAT will surely want to know what are the factors as UMNO is our largest ruling party and the leadership comes from this party. Any weakness or strength has to be shared with the RAKYAT.

Please do not forget that its the RAKYAT that decides who rules the country and not only UMNO members or UMNO leaders. Be honest and admit the flaws as well as the weakness.

Kartika - Comments by a woman activist

2009-08-26T01:41:00.000-07:00

Salam,

I found these facts very interesting. If anyone needs a translation let me know in the comments and I will do it.

Read and Understand this article carefully. Lots of facts in it. Have an open mind please on matters of this nature. Islam is never against being open minded. Islam in fact is the most open minded religion and the most merciful one. We do not go around canning people.

SEBAGAI seorang Islam, saya tertanya-tanya wajah Islam bagaimanakah yang Malaysia mahukan? Negara Islam, Islam madani, Islam hadari, atau Islam "hududi"?
Apa pun jenamanya, tentu yang kita mahukan adalah Islam yang adil, rahmah, berihsan, penyayang, mesra kepada orang perempuan, prihatin terhadap orang yang kurang bernasib baik, dan Islam yang sentiasa bersangka baik pada manusia.

Akan tetapi, cara mahkamah syariah di Malaysia menangani kes Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarnor tidak mencerminkan Islam yang kita impikan itu.
Bertambah malang lagi apabila ada orang Islam dan pemimpin-pemimpin yang mengaku memperjuangkan Islam, bersorak gembira dengan hukuman keras yang dijatuhkan terhadap Kartika.

Selama ini, ulama dan pemimpin Islam begitu petah dan rancak sekali bila berbicara tentang keadilan dalam Islam. Namun, apabila timbul masalah sebenar di dalam masyarakat, nampaknya ramai yang kelam kabut dan teraba-raba mencari sinar keadilan itu. Kelihatan sukar sekali mereka menterjemahkan konsep adil itu dalam menangani realiti kehidupan masyarakat.

Sesungguhnya, ini adalah kesalahan pertama Kartika dan beliau telah pun mengaku bersalah. Maka, mengapa dia dikenakan hukuman maksima? Adakah lebih berat sesuatu hukuman itu, maka semakin Islamlah ia?

Perbandingan dan persoalan
Bandingkan kesalahan Kartika yang tidak memudaratkan sesiapa pun dengan kesalahan mat-mat rempit dan peragut beg yang menjejaskan keselamatan orang ramai dan telah menyebabkan kematian. Dan juga dosa Kartika dengan dosa bapa-bapa tidak bertanggungjawab yang tidak membayar nafkah sara hidup anak-anaknya.

Selepas hukuman dijatuhkan, Kartika terus membayar denda RM5,000 yang dikenakan tanpa banyak soal. Justeru, adakah adil, berhikmah dan berihsan apabila mahkamah kemudiannya menambah lagi hukuman penjara tujuh hari di penjara Kajang?

Adakah orang yang selama ini mengaku memperjuangkan agama Allah dan menegakkan negara Islam mahukan Islam yang sadis, keras dan tidak berihsan?

Lupakah mereka tentang Khalifah Umar Al-Khattab yang berihsan sekali dan tidak menghukum pencuri yang mencuri akibat kemiskinan? Lupakah mereka tentang nasihat Allah: "Maka barangsiapa yang bertaubat sesudah melakukan kejahatan itu, dan memperbaiki diri, maka sesungguhnya Allah menerima taubatnya. Sesungguhnya Allah Maha pengampun lagi Maha Penyayang." (Al-Quran, Surah Al-Maidah: 39)

Malah, banyak lagi ayat Al-Quran yang memberikan peringatan yang sama seperti Surah An-Nahl: 119 dan 125, dan Surah Al-An'am: 54.

Patutkah Jabatan Agama Islam Pahang yang telah memasukkan Kartika ke dalam van untuk dibawa ke penjara Kajang, tiba-tiba menukar fikiran dan memulangkannya semula ke rumahnya? Kemudian, ahli majlis mesyuarat kerajaan Pahang Datuk Mohd Sahfri Abdul Aziz mengeluarkan kenyataan bahawa Kartika akan disebat selepas bulan Ramadan pula. Apakah pantas Kartika dilayan seperti haiwan sarkas yang dimasukkan ke dalam sangkar, dilepaskan dan ditangkap semula sesuka hati?

Umat Islam harus jujur bertanya pada sanubari diri di bulan Ramadan yang mulia dan penuh rahmah ini — adilkah hukuman dan layanan ke atas Kartika?

Merdeka

2009-08-25T23:55:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Malaysia in a few days will be celebrating its 52nd Merdeka Celebration. Like usual every year we have Tunku Abdul Rahman Shouting MERDEKA MERDEKA MERDEKA. For 52 years now we have been having the same scene all over in the television.

The question here is was it only TUNKU and friends responsible for our independence. From the year 1511 colonization started in Malaysia. The Portuguese invaded Malaysia followed by the Dutch then came the Brits followed by a short term JAP rule and before the Brits came back the communist did rule for about a week or slightly more.

Being under the rule of different colonists for hundreds of years I cant picture out that it was only Tunku and friends deserve the credit when it comes to independence.

Why is it that names like Tok Janggut, Mat Kilau, Rentap and many others are not being featured in the fore front as independent contibutors. These people sacrificed their lives on many occasions. Sacrificed their families. Sacrificed their wealth , happiness in the name of the country that they love and care about. MALAYSIA

End of the day these people are honoured with 2 paragraphs in history books which is such a bore in school sylabus today. What an Honour for those who had sacrificed their families, lifes and livelyhood with the hope that the future generations to come will enjoy freedom.

Relook into the existence of these freedom fighters and potray them as an important figure to be remebered and understood by all Malaysians.

As we forget history the implcation will effect the up coming generation. Example is because of Hang Tuah we had Tok Janggut and because of Tok Janggut we had Tunku Abdul Rahman. History is known to create the future. Without history there is no future.

Salam,

Dr. Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin fomerly the Mufti of Perlis. An Islamic scholar that I admire most. During his term as a mufti there were many issues that he commented on and resulted to an outcry by many other scholars.

Being a brave open minded Muslim at times can be tough when we are trying to portray ISLAM at its best. Many narrow minded so called scholars will condemn statements made by us. ISLAM is very simple and beautiful if the true ISLAM is practised. There are many issues today which is being politicized by so called Islamic scholars to benefit their political needs. The one thing I and I am sure many hate to see is religion being used by politicians for their personal gain. As Dr Mohd Asri says to hinder those from committing sins and going against the belief of Islam is not difficult. All we have to do is go back to the very basic that is prayers. Prayers in every religion builds a god fearing person in one self and it automatically gets the person thinking what is being done is the right thing or not.

It's no use going around arresting people and punishing people for drinking alcohol if the emphasize on prayers is not being built into one self.

Religious bodies of no matter which faith should start promoting the need of prayer in each and everyone. Automatically this person who thinks of doing something which is known as a sin will avoid it. This is what ISLAM is all about. ISLAM is about tolerance, accepting and respecting other beliefs and protecting them as well. ISLAM is against any form of violence as it only practices peace.

To know more about ISLAM i would strongly recommend this blog. drmaza.com

Khairy Jamaluddin (KJ)

2009-08-24T11:43:00.001-07:00

Salam,

Was visiting a few political blogs again and noticed pro Khairy blog. The most interesting about this blog is the declaration done in the blog which says that the persons involved in creating the blog is not being paid millions and they are doing it coz they are genuinely supporting KJ and would like to see KJ grow in the political scene. Amazing we still have people in the political scene doing charity work just to ensure a particular figure grow and they will stand down there and cheer for him.

If I was politically ambitious I would love to have people like this around me. KJ is a very lucky guy. No need to pay anything and he gets people to write good things about him and updating people about KJ's daily agenda.

My personal believe is if you are clean and not guilty about something you don't have to declare it. Che Det does not have anything declaring about not paying anyone to update or write on the blog. No one has it I think except for KJ. Why make it so obvious. Clearly it states that guilt will one day proof your wrong doings.

It was shocking when KJ won the Ketua Pemuda seat. What I don't understand is the process of nomination which had Dato Mukhriz on the top and when it was elections DM came out last. How could this happen.

What is the duty of a PERWAKILAN. I think the word WAKIL clearly translates as REPRESENT. PERWAKILAN clearly states REPRESENTATION. Who are these people representing when they go to the assembly. I think its the voice of the grass root that is the branches to the divisions voice. If the branches and divisions have nominated a certain individual isn't that enough to make these particular person with the highest nomination to be the winner. Why have the representatives decide. In this case don't call these people REPRESENTATIVES call them THE DECIDER'S OF THE FUTURE OF MALAYSIA.

Che Det - Merdeka / Kartika

2009-08-24T10:33:00.000-07:00

Just finished commenting on chedet and decided to write something here. Its been in the papers for sometime and has been in the foreign news as well i guess. Its rather typical to have the foreign press these days very keen in Malaysian news especially when we have issues pertaining to racial and religion. I wonder why.

My opinion is very simple, as i had commented in ayahanda's blog , the culprits who are Muslims who have committed bigger sins especially involving rape against their own flesh and blood should have their files transferred to the syariah court and the canning sentence should be implemented on these people first before we can even think of canning Kartika. I am not supporting her fully she has committed an offence and I totally agree with Tun that first time offenders can be pardoned depending on the circumstances as we know she was with her husband at that point of time and a husband is responsible under the Muslim law for acts of her wife as he is the head of the family.

What is frustrating here is a person who rapes a minor or his own daughter gets away with a jail term and a person drinking beer with her husband gets the canning.

Islam is all about being merciful if one wants to repent. I think Kartika should be given the chance to repent from her wrong doings but not the culprits who have tarnished the future of minors and their own flesh and blood.

Justice is what we want to see but are we seeing justice here. Think about it.

PKR Lunas rep Quits

2009-08-22T22:30:00.001-07:00

Salam,
Just read about the quiting of Lunas state assemblyman Mohd Radzhi Salleh from PKR. Declaring himself as an independent and retaining the seat as well as state executive council member. I start to wonder what is really going on in Malaysia. Since the last elections we have had by elections after by elections. We even saw a state change government. Are the politicians thinking that we the RAKYAT are fools.

When a person is voted he is voted by the RAKYAT he or she is chosen based on 2 aspects:
1. The political party he or she represents
2. His or her personality as an individual based on leadership qualities and how can he or she serve the constituency represented.

Based on this who gives the right for the individual to hop parties or declare himself as an individual. For this to happen the RAKYAT should have a say. The RAKYAT that has chosen him or her has the right to decide if he or she can hop parties or declare themselves as independent.

It seems so unfair for these elected representatives to do as they like. Don't they realise its the RAKYAT that put them there. Its the RAKYAT who has decided. The 5 years term given is where they have to serve the RAKYAT according to the RAKYAT wishes according to the law that is.

Where is the moral of these people. I simply don't understand.

Tourism Malaysia

2009-08-22T12:31:00.000-07:00

Salam,

Ramadan is here, traditionally in Malaysia the best part of Ramadan begins at about 4pm where Bazar Ramadan begins. Nearly everyone of all walks of life visit the bazar's in the city and outskirts in every state all over the country.

Read the papers in the morning. Deputy Tourism Minister saw the need of promoting the bazar's to foreign tourists. Wish he had seen the need a few years ago. After all we have been having the bazar's for decades now.

Similar to the Bazar's many other tourism sites have been left out. to name a few:

1. Teluk Intan Clock Tower
2. Pasir Salak History
3. Tanjung Piai in Johor - Southern most tip of the continent of Asia.
4. Mat Kilau Trail - Our forgotten warrior
5. P. Ramlee Memorial
6. Hindu Temple in Maran Pahang - Yearly celebrations - Hindu's from all over Asia gather here.
7. Sikh Temple in Melaka - Annual memorial prayers - Saint Sohan Singh Memorial

And many others.

Please those responsible look into all the interesting sites available in this beautiful country. Malaysia is amazing and has a lot to offer to the people of this world.

Salam.

Malaysian Politics

2009-08-22T10:37:00.000-07:00

Salam,

I have been reading lots of blogs on Malaysian Politics. I have noticed there are lots of hatred as well as teasing going on in there. It reminds me of my school days when one teases the other the other than retaliates and fights back. No one wants to loose as its the ego which has been built in us from our very young days and till today we still carry it with us. Following is my opinion about the blogs:

1. Che Det: Outstanding , Matured , Filled with facts, I love it when he teases an individual or group its done in a very matured manner.

2. 1Malaysia (PM's Blog) : I don't dare go into it coz the support might increase, how can one gauge the increase of support by looking at the numbers of visitors. I hate some politicians but still I go into their blogs to see whats happening.

3. Rosmah (PM's Wife) : Its a bigger joke - more like a diary nothing for the public to say or read as claimed when she said she wants to be closer to the rakyat. Advise for rosmah please get a hair cut.

4. Parpu Kari: Interesting blog very very political but will do well if Parpukari could stop using the vulgar words.

5. Sing is kiing: Interesting, funny and targeted to one person only. Maybe should look into expanding and commenting on nation building as well.

6. Lim Kit Siang: Not really interesting as its just plain politics hitting on the government. Mr. Lim appreciate your years as the opposition you have contributed towards the nation. I admired you once but I think your blogging should change a little talking about other things than politics take che det for an example.

7. Anwar Ibrahim: This blog has one big joke on it - Sourcing for donations. Mr. Anwar you and your family drive luxury cars and live in bungalows and travel around the world and you still need donations. It really took me by surprise and if there are donors I will be super shocked at the blindness of Malaysians.

8. Pro Khairi : Another typical political blog praising an individual I don't see much on nation building.

9. Tok Guru Nik Aziz: Cool, Spiritual advises, Calm and interesting. Still need to read more to really give comments on the blog.

Now the point here is lets be matured when we blog. Give facts without the vulgar words and demoralising any individual. Lets be professional in order to have a great nation develop. I urge all bloggers to concentrate on Nation building rather than going after individuals and condemning them. Malaysia today needs the unity and also intelligent people.

I do agree its frustrating what Pak Lah and KJ has done in the past but the past is the past. Lets look into the future. KJ is still around and let the grass root speak for itself when the time comes. In which ever way he won the KP post he is already there and there is nothing that can be done until a fresh election is called. If the grass root level is really not happy about it speak up during ballots. Just let it be for the moment and help Malaysia grow.

For the love of our country lets unite and save Malaysia from being destroyed.

Salam.
