Rollercoaster Nazri...

If yesterday is cold, then today should be warming up. No, I am not talking about the weather. I am zeroing on Nazri f/o Nedim for his outlandish typically Nazri's statement.



The STAR reported Malaysia's de facto Law minister of suggesting an alternative for drug offences.

In point form, Nazri's suggestions and solution are :-

1. Replace mandatory death sentence with jail term, reason? Many Malaysians were caught overseas as drug mules;
2. Difficult to appeal for Malaysian drug mules when Malaysia impose mandatory death sentence;
3. Considering 30 year jail term in replacement to death sentence;

What Nazri fails to realise is that we do not have to live to other peoples expectation. Even as it is, Malaysia has serious drug problem and if our citizens are vulnurable as drug mules, then what are we doing to prevent that? What actions are being taken to protect Malaysia citizens from becoming drug mules?

Of mice, pumpkin and halloween...

Yes, I have been sitting on the sidewalk far too long, savouring the mistakes made by both sides of the fence and observing how BN are squirming on their deathbeds...

Being silent does not mean that everything is fine under the table. No, far from that - I see Malaysian falling deeper and deeper into the pits, thanks to blunderous BN for their continual grammy awards displaying their unintelligence for the world to see...

First off is when a group of UMNO makciks paid me a visit last week armed with a packet of cloud 9 biscuits and a recyclable "kami sayang UMNO" bag. I pity their main speaker for gulping her pride, pleading for my vote and subtly warning of "unforeseen" catastrophe when PR takes over the country.

Their reasoning is that PR will change the constitution and turn Malaysia into a Christian state. How stupid of them to claim that without any strong evidence. Is it not YDP Agung's decision and signature will stamp constitutional change? And if this is not so, who is the person who masterly architect the constitutional change by removing the powers of YDP Agung? Is it UMNO/BN or is it DAP/PR? No clue? That same person is the same one who attacked the royal house when he is at the height of his power and is now said to be the man behind 1MPM6.That said, which party engineered the constitutional change that removes the powers of the monarchy? UMNO or PAS? DAP or MCA? PPP or Keadilan? BN or Pakatan Rakyat?

Secondly, what is MCA's motives in rejecting hudud? How many times has PAS clarifies that hudud is applicable for Muslims only. If that is already stated, then why is MCA so dictatorial in determining what Muslims want? If MCA don't want to practise hudud, by all means because hudud is non-applicable to non-Muslims in the first place.

However, when Chua Soil Leg and his thuigs openly condemn hudud, then he is betraying their true nature and has openly insulted all Muslims in Malaysia including thick faced UMNO. What is UMNO going to do with that? Will UMNO continue support MCA and their anti-hudud stance?

Taking a step further, Chua Soil Leg making another foolish generalisation when he mentioned that countries practising hudud are backward. Now, Chua Soil Leg failed to mention any country to back his claim and worse - on which standard is the statement made? If Chua Soil Leg is making his claim based on western standards, then he is surely wrongfooted as he fails to judge the country based on their Islamic principle. How can Chua make a judgement of an Islamic model based on a non-Islamic ideas? I call this a "not so clever" Chua Soil Leg.

Moving on, what can I say of 1MPM6 Najib? He talks about Rakyat didahulukan, pencapaian diutamakan and he also hype on the high morality stand. Yet, his own UMNO VP fails him when the VP from Sabah who again and again deny his relationship with a certain model cum artist is found to actually married the model. Why must the UMNO VP lied? Is this what we want from UMNO leaders? Habitual liars? How can Najib faced the nation when his own VP lies through his teeth? The last I heard is this particular VP is shying away from Najib.

Worse still - this same UMNO VP is suppose to take over from Musa Aman in Sabah. Now, the question that is playing in Sabahans is - are we forced to keep Musa Aman since the designated replacement is a liar? Maybe, it is better for Sabahans to throw their lots and votes for PR as we move forward.

Another friend make a sharp observation when I ask him of the election date. His answer is simple - what would you do when you know that you are losing and you have 6 months to play? Will you opt for election now or keep on drawing your salary and perks for the next six months, hoping for rakyats turnaround? My friend say Najib will surely choose to grab more cash then being politically slaughtered in the election.

Najib prays again and again that there are no more bullets left to maim BN. The problem is - the more he waits the more dirts are surfacing. The longer he waits, the more scandals are discovered stripping BN of that "everything is OK" attitude.

Frankly, I pity the small UMNO party workers who pleads and begging for life saving votes. Unfortunately UMNO leaders keep on blundering and the latest 40M poltical transfer shows that they are too arrogant for our second chance. If that is the case, let's say sayonara to BN as we waits for a new dawn...

Of the last bugle...

A friendly conversation in a 1M environment displays a simple request - MALAYSIANS WANT A CLEAN AND FAIR ELECTION! and those small steps taken in BERSIH 1.0, BERSIH 2.0 and BERSIH 3.0 are bearing fruits and ample warning to the government of the day to perk up and take notice of the rakyats' messages...

Well, actually it was suppose to be a meeting of sorts to fan out works and to split out the works within those affected. It started with some small talk before the actual meeting and within that short span of time, six out seven attended voice out their support for a clean and fair election, starting from the electoral roll. Mind you that all these seven are professionals from various disciplines including Engineers, ICT guys, property developers, accountant and corporate planners! Maybe (and that is just pure maybe) that the only non-professional attending the meeting is who someone said is a teacher :)

One of them experience a unique gerrymandering exercise. He has a household of three consisting of a man, his wife and his son and all of them stay in the same house in Cheras. All of them registered using the same family house address. EC through their creativity, place the man to be a voter in Bandar Tun Raqak, his wife needs to vote for Seputeh MP whilst his son ended in Serdang parliament seat. How is this so? One explaination given by the Electrical consultant who happens to be one of the seven attending the meeting is EC is using a unique zoning method whereby this person's house is further sub-divided into rooms and all these three fellows may have been sleeping in separate rooms thus the different parliamentary constituencies!

The Electrical consultant has his own share of peculiarity too. He and his wife has been devout voters for the past 5 elections and recently he checked and find out that his wife evaporated from the election roll! His wife is still breathing the same air as he is and this Electrical consultant is wondering why is his wife suddenly disappear from the current election roll!

Another, a project director, voice out that it is understandable if mistakes and oversight occurs but not at the current rate. He reminded that 48 % (or is it 41 %?) of Malaysians could not vote due to their age. Yes! above 40 % of Malaysians are below 21 years old and they could not possibly vote in the coming election. Further, 8 % of Malaysians are above 50 years old. Meaning? Malaysians must now stand up and be counted and the rakyats could not allow EC from slumping in carrying out their duties to ensure a clean and fair election, including a clean and accurate election roll!

By now everyone has their own opinion on the IAP ie Independent Advisory Panel headed by Hanif. Is Hanif placed there to check Anwar as both of them are old boys? Or is Hanif put there because he is the "cleanest" ex-IGPs' alive? Clean or not, Hanif's appointment as head of IAP was even asked in one of the AGM of a public listed company recently. Something that have not happen since Merdeka. No shareholder has stand up and query about one of the senior Management's role in panels set by government until a week or so ago.

Hanif may not have heard the query in person but he should have known by now that his position was queried by shareholders. Maybe, he too needs to stap down like the 2 panelists before him.

No small talk is complete without tyhe big question - when? When is GE 13? The corporate planner who normally spends time at PWTC curtly mentioned that it is a headache to Najib. Instead of addressing GE 13 date, the planner sidestep the issue with another hot topic - Raja Nong Chik will be smoked out from his ministry and the person to replace him will be someone who has almost the same track record like Isa Samad!

If that is true, then Najib is closer to sounding his last bugle. How can Najib thinks of placing a person who has been found guilty of "attempts to bribe delegates" by UMNO disciplinary board to be appointed as Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan? Unless Najib has lost all his marbles in making good decisions!

Is that all? No, not really. All these 7 professionals agree that it is time for rakyats to change the government of the day. Not because they did not love BN but all of them love Malaysia more! What they are doing is to protect our next generation of 48 % who can't vote. We may be too old to reap the fruits but surely we could not let our next generation suffer for the misdeeds of BN.

All the seven also observed and agree that MSM has lost their values. STAR is going for free somewhere but nobody seems to be interested to catch up news on the newspaper. Well, the planner claims that the newspapers have the minds of their own and not subject to level 4 censorship. For that, the poor planner got bombarded as the rest believe MSM has failed the rakyats with their continuous lies and half truths. The fact is, our generation Y is more comfortable with online news and BN is losing their advantage...

All said and done, it is time for Najib to blow his last bugle. It is not a matter of retaining Putrajaya. Najib has a moral duty to get Malaysia by dissolving the parliament now and call for GE 13. Maybe Najib can still hang on to Putrajaya but Najib must be willing to say adios to the deadwoods in BN. The better thing is for Najib to withdraw from Putrajaya and let BN young chargers to take over. It will be a better option for Najib to walk with pride now then to walk in shame after GE 13.

Or is it possible that Najib is incapable of blowing the last bugle? Not when his lips are sealed with French scorpenes laced with Daniyar's poison?

Of hazy Najib...

It is that time of the year again when haze will envelope Klang valley and it will always be the same old record excuse of "open burning" on the other side of the fence.

Whilst the Klang valley haze will finally go away and return some other day, there is another kind of haze that is making Malaysians choked and sweat and perspire! This haze is 1MPM6 Najib's haze.

Just the other day, NC chanced on TV3's senior Manager who is also a state bureu chief as he tried his oratory talent to paint a good picture of 1MPM6 Najib. However, in his haste to paint a saint out of Najib, his numerous slips are telling, Najib's future is a hazy one indeed!

Whilst this particular boot licker paint a thousand colours for Najib, he chose to paint the same glorious colours on Mahathir and put all the blame squarely on Abdullah Badawi. Mahathir is a visionary as Abdullah is a spoiler whilst Najib is painted as the saviour. Hello, my friend - isn't Mahathir, Abdullah Badawi and Najib comes from the same pot? If yes, then it just don't rhyme to say that a part of the pot is sweet, whilst the other side is sour and the one in the bottom is a mix of everything.

The point is, whilst every leader has his own style but definitely BN's leadership is as typical as it should be. No change there and thus if Abdullah Badawi srew up the whole country then Najib is screwing us double as he tries to cover Abdullah Badawi's mistakes and in his attempts, Najib is making twice a big a hole to cover Abdullah!

How do you rate a man? It is more on how he treats his woman and his family. Did Najib treat his woman right? How could he when he painted his first woman of his life as mentally unstable as an escape clause for Najib to cement his relationship through his second marriage? How can you vouch that Najib is a perfect family man when he abandons his children from his first marriage?

Going a step further, if Najib fails as a husband and the head of the family, how can we rate him as a good leader? If Najib opts for a glass instead of the diamond in his hand in terms of marriage, then how can we trust Najib to get the best candidates to lead the country? Why did I say so?

Just look at his future SIL, Daniyar Nazarbayev.  Najib's daughter was engaged to Daniyar in 2011 when Najib is already Malaysia's PM. Now, why didn't Najib make a quick background check on his future SIL? Love is blind for the couple but is Najib blinded too or is he only privy to filtered news? Najib could not claim ignorance when there are already speculation that Daniyar's mother is linked to Russian mafia! With Malaysian's intelligence unit under his disposal, Najib still fails to nip the probable problem at its bud! Or is Najib too "lembik" to the extent that he could not break Nooryana's heart?


If this is the same Najib that is going to lead BN's charge in defending Putrajaya, then all is lost and as good as gone! BN's MPs' claimed that Najib's "family problem" is not a reflection of Najib's leadership. Actually, it is. It shows that Najib is too "weak" and this weakness is making him hazy to decide GE 13 date.


Najib is using all his lifeline to stay afloat and the longer he delays GE 13, the worse it will be. Unless Najib is planning BN's downfall and he is hellbent to make history as being the last PM from BN.


Maybe next time, we see another side of Najib... or will it be going downhill from here?

Of politics from a boy's view...(R18)

If you have read it before, consider this as a refresher course...

A little boy goes to his dad and asks, 'What is Politics?'

Dad says,
'Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The Prime Minister.
Your mother is the administrator of the money,so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People. The Indon maid , we will consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.

Now think about that and see if it makes sense. So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said.

Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his nappy. So the little boy goes to his parent's room and finds his mother asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the maid.. He gives up and goes back to bed.

The next morning, the little boy say's to his father, 'Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now. ' The father says, 'Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.'

The little boy replies, 'The Prime Minister is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ignored and the Future is in deep shit.'

This has nothing to do with any person, dead or alive and if there is any similarity then it is pure coincidence..

Of Burger, Thosai, butts and...

Bersopan dan beradab amalan kita

Picture taken just outside Rais's ministry near Dataran Merdeka. Actually I was looking for the Occupy Dataran people after a cuppa of coffee. Instead the banner sets me thinking...
Where are we heading? The banner says "Bersopan dan beradab amalan kita" but are we really? We taught the Nepalese security guards to place their hands over their heart to say "Welcome" and we teach our frontliners to serve "with a golden smile". Not only that, we pride ourselves with the tagline "Malaysia, truly Asian.." but deep down we are getting into the gutters.
Look at how some of our ex-servicemen doing butt exercise in front of Ambiga's house. Is that "Bersopan dan beradab"? Just consider these points :-

1. These ex-servicemen did their butt exercise wearing normal attire. Is that how we do exercise? No sweat shirts or jogging tracks?;
   
   
2. Some of these ex-servicemen wears kopiah and yet continue with the embarassing exercise;
3. The leader of the group refuse Ambiga's offer of 100 plus saying "Kita orang Melayu dan Islam tak minum nie. Kita minum air suam". What has 100 plus got to do with Melayu and Islam? Is there a new edict saying that 100 plus is non-halal?;
4. Most probably these ex-servicemen are NCO (non-commissioned officers). That tells a lot of their approach;
5. The leader claims that they are fighting in the jungles before. I will love to see their track records. In most probablity, they are the ones who are lounging in the cities with their green uniform;
>

Take another case. This time about some petty traders setting up burger stall in front of, who else, but Ambiga's house. Now consider these points :-

1. Is it bersopan dan beradab to set up a burger stall which definitely means serving beef and chicken burger in front of a Hindu practitioner's house?;
2. Is it alright to just set up a stall wherever and whenever you like just because the police says so?;
3. Is this a greenlight for others to follow similar footsteps because there is no action from DBKL?;
4. Why no action here when only this morning I saw DBKL officers lugging nasi lemak and its dishes into DBKL's enforcement lorry near Pasar Seni?. 2 sets of standards?;

Let's broaden our horizon. What's becoming of gentle Malaysians when we have our own citizens heckling 1MPM6 Najib in UK recently? I mean here is 1MPM6 Najib starting his speech in London and we have our own citizens heckling him during his speech. Why then? Why not wait outside the function room to voice your displeasure? Are we losing that "Beradab dan bersopan" attitude? If so, something is wrong with our education system...
Are we living in a world of tits for tats? We have burger stall here and we are having a thosai stall there? And the better thing is it will be free thosai and free thosai making class. Will this be a new development in Malaysia? Will there be Chee Cheong Fun stalls later? What about Nasi lemak? 
In short, where is our "beradab dan bersopan" culture? Have we lost that loving feeling and everything is now only "WE" against "THEM"? Are we heading towards partitions and compartmentalise living? Are we that far apart? Are we heading towards a separation point of no return?
When Terengganu falls to PAS, UMNO supporters vowed that they will never drive their cars on the roads. Alas, that promise lasted only a month before these UMNO grassroot leaders drive on the tar-surface roads in Terengganu. The point is - both sides needs each other to stabilise.
As much as the government feels that they did the right thing, they need the opposition to do check and balance to keep them on the right track. How do we do that? Do we sacrifice our "beradab dan bersopan" to shout vulgarities? Do we need to throw our dignity to show our butts? Do we need disrespect other people's religion by setting up stalls offering beef burgers in front of a Hindu's house? We are Malaysians and we can do better than that. The trouble is we are too far apart that we are drawing lines to separate "them" from "us".
It is not too late to reconcile and begin from the starting point. All it needs is someone in Putrajaya to swallow his ego and admits that there is something wrong with his administration. At the same time, it needs a big heart from the other side to accept that something positive should be done. Are we not the "beradab dan bersopan"? If we are, then it is time to bury the hatchet and start where we left off...the minor problem here is I see Mahathir talking more like a PM when he is not!
