RPK HAS SPIRIT OF M'SIAN TIGER?

2009-05-24T19:44:00.000-07:00

There was an article on May 24, 09 in the Malaysiankini portal about the above subject matter which the writer said he was proud of the boldness of the few like Raja Petra and others which can symbolise the spirit of the tiger on our Malaysia logo.

I am proud of the Malysian tiger, of its beauty and physical appeal but I see no similarities between that animal and RPK. The Malaysian tiger is like the other species that takes careful care of their cubs to that their young would later survive in the jungle. Unfortunate RPK has failed to bring up his son in this human jungle and more so when the son was caught for the crime, RPK and his wife was no where to be seen. Shame on them, definitely a Malaysian tiger would growl and show it powers.

In his desperation to boost the image of his master, DSAI and his PAS protégées, RPK has damaged whatever little credentials he has; a Malaysian tiger would never do that. RPK appears more like a kucing kurap, the alley cat which prowls around looking for food and the food the kucing kurup digests are mere left over. Study the alley cats and you will understand what I mean; the type of food that RPK eats enables him to utter lies and create fantasies. One only wonders when an cowardly animal like RPK will write scripts for Bollywood from his hide out in Down Under. RPK is a coward no doubt running away far from the terrain where he should be fighting for rights and justice; but he is nothing more than a kucing kurup.

But then again, everyone is entitle to his own opinion!

WHAT A FUSS NIZAR

2009-05-23T20:14:00.000-07:00

The endorgan group continues to blemish PAS image; these kinds of leaders in PAS are a shame to their party of Islamic credentials. It’s sad to see its leaders misleading its UMMAH; for sure we Muslims fast for only the sake of Allah. I wonder if the Ulama in PAS will condone such acts by its members or have the Ulama in PAS lost their marbles too? Nizar continues to prove himself to be a stooge of the DAP and closely associates himself with biadap people like Sivakumar but then birds of a feather flock together. Nizar is as biadap as Sivakumar and a shame to his religious party. Serve your constituency and follow not the ways of the DAP and PKR for Allah knows best.Your fast is a foolish fuss and lots of hypocrisy

THE 30% BUMIPUTRA EQUITY RULE SHOUD STAY.

2008-10-29T07:23:00.000-07:00

The Malays’ response to this call to abolish the 30% bumiputera equity participation should not come merely from UMNO and other interested Malay NGOs but also from others who deemed themselves as leaders of the Malay Bumiputra community. I refer to the relevant responses from leaders like DSAI, MB Khalid Ibrahim, Azmin Ali, Tok Guru and Hadi Awang etc so that the overall views from a wider spectrum of the Malay population can be gauged. (Note: however such comment from DSAI that he questioned not the Bumi special rights but its abuses is pure falsehood, coming from someone who was himself grossly tainted with such abuses when he was previously deputy PM/ Finance Minister)

By the way, it’s quite absurd/ academic to address this 30% at this point in time when activities connected with the local and worldwide stock market and investment is practically dead and likely remain so for quite a long while; no right thinking promoters would wish to list their companies presently nor Bumis/ their institutions keen to take up the relevant stake. However, in question is a mechanism evolved in implementing part of the Social Contract; these so called Malay Muslim leaders should give their honest opinion.

As for me, a Bumiputra and in the greater interest of the Bumiputra community, I stand together with those who strong believe that the 30% rule should remain; its not timely to phase it out yet. The aftermath of the world economic and financial meltdown will inevitable affect our economic landscape. Patience has its virtues while public debating for the UMNO youth position copying the American style of politics has its severe drawbacks. Lets all focus on tackling issues affecting our real economy as a consequence of the world economic meltdown resulting from amongst other causes the lack of transparency and insatiable greed originating from the lead country that promotes liberty, greater democracy and governance to the world.

No To Public Debates on UMNO YOUTH

2008-10-28T20:34:00.000-07:00

1. The debate is a sinister ploy by KJ to deceive the grassroots and the Malaysian public.

2. In Malaysian politics today, who does not know that phony by the name of KJ, grossly responsible as much as his father-in-law for the disasters of UMNO and BN. Using a populist platform of “Setiakawan”, running as a "Malaysian," as opposed to that of "Malay" whist trying to push some form of reform agenda for Umno, is most perplexing for a candidate standing for a party strictly for the Malays and Islam. KJ desperately hopes to galvanize support for his battered image and such self delusion is to grossly cover up his winnings/ nominations earned dubiously by money politics and whatever remaining influence of his father-in-law.

3. Amateurish as he is in Malaysian politics and of its complex culture, this stupid bloke discards Eastern values particularly Malay values for the west in portraying himself as a man of the times. Like his mentor the chameleon cum self centered politician by the name of DSAI, KJ insists on riding on the wave of false liberalization, democratic reforms, and greater transparency in the wake of the disasters of his own creation. Public debates is an American culture and not necessary appropriate to Malaysian politics especially for UMNO. The local political sensitivities are not akin to those in United States and public debating on issues relating to UMNO are likely to have more negative consequences than good..

4. I read the negative comments on public debating by several key UMNO politicians including Mukriz himself and I stand whole heartedly with them on this issue. Action speaks louder than words and we cannot allow a publicly acclaimed nincompoop, good for nothing fool like KJ to continue disrupting the re-engineering of UMNO Youth with his forked tongue. I hope in the greater interest of the youth movement, YB Khir Toyo, should back out from participating with such public debate so that KJ will bark and yapp in solitude on his ridiculous platform and let whatever ludah he spits to the air to fall flat on his deserving face.

5. No more of KJ, enough of him; the Silent Majority is watching and trust that grass roots will decisively oust him and his close associates out of politics. To strengthen UMNO in these uncertain times, the grassroots must get rid of selfish pricks like KJ and his associates and focus on the economy and win back those states lost.

BACK TO NORM.

2008-10-12T08:29:00.000-07:00

Alhamdullilah, the Holy Month of Ramadan has passed and now most of us are enjoying the Hari Raya celebrations albeit the worsening world economic meltdown. While our beloved country is considered rather isolated from the credit crunch crisis arising from the US sub-prime loans, nonetheless this country will be feel its adverse ramifications especially those involved in the export business and by those rich locals who got themselves exposed in overseas financial markets via their private banking.

I had refrained from frequently posting during the month of Ramadan to focus on more religious practices although I did at some occasions reply/ comment to some blogs.

At first, I did not intend to have an open house due to several reasons connected with our local as well as international economic developments. However I had a change of hearts after considering the requests of some family members as well as to celebrate my daughter’s 17^th Birthday. Why not, I considered, next year could be more expensive due to the uncertainty of world economic situation and this Hari Raya is of great significance as PM had already decided to quit, a wish I have longed for so long. So inviting friends, neighbors and relatives, my family will have modest one this coming Saturday. Insha’allah, our open house will have blessings of the Almighty Allah.

WE MUSLIMS DO NOT WANT A POLITICIAN WHO HAS THE BACKING OF THE US ADMINISTRATION.

2008-09-13T10:24:00.000-07:00

Again the US Administration has interfered in the internal affairs of the country, this time round though in relation to the imposition of the draconian law of the Internal Security Act.

The US Administration never learns that every time it interferes in the politics of a Muslim country the local Muslims hate it. So this time round on the pretext of the arrest of 3 individuals under the ISA, the US Administration interferes again giving credence to the suspicion that the US supports DSAI who seeking a change of Government in Malaysia by 16 September 2008.

The US Administration intervention confirms the belief that it is indeed the key backer of DSAI and his political stooges including the Bar Council. Thus with such intervention DSAI further alienates himself from the Muslims who frown the US foreign policies.

I doubt PAS grassroots would truly support a politician carrying such an unwanted and dangerous foreign baggage.

So down with DSAI and his political sponsors the United States Administration.

MALAYS STILL FOR RACE BASED POLITICS

2008-09-13T10:04:00.000-07:00

I just came back from a buka puasa and sembahyang terawih at a neighbour’s house.

After berbuka puasa and terawih prayers, the common subject among the neighbours was of course the current political scenario and in particular when PM will eventually step down and Tun will become an adviser to UMNO. The neighbourhood seemed to discard as irrelevant the politics brought about by DSAI as the defacto head of the Opposition and the inability of PAS to take a constructive leadership role in the Pakatan Rakyat albeit safeguarding the interest of the Malays and Islam.

Irrespective that the leaders of the various leaders of the Opposition has commented about their commitment to the Constitution and the Special rights, the developments on the ground in the 3 Pakatan States namely Selangor, Perak and Penang says differently. Yes, whatever goodness that Pakatan bragged about progress in the states under their control seemed insignificant; the neighbours see things differently. Multi-racialism parties have no place in the hearts of the neighbours.

The general conclusion was that PM must go soonest as he has done nothing effectively and as one UMNO man said, the bulk of UMNO grassroots also wants him out for the greater interest of UMNO and the Nation. The Malays need a strong leader as a replacement, someone who will bring back control and sanity among the races. Reforms of freedom and tolerance brought about by PM were identified as one of the major causes for the state of affairs and uncertainty. In fact, many were disgusted with RPK writings and the foolishness of Ms Ambiga and the Bar Council.

I too got generally the same feedback at the nearby surau which I attended almost every night for my terawih prayers.

KERAJAAN MASIH KUKUH? DATUK AHMAD SAID? DSAI?

2008-09-09T11:46:00.000-07:00

So said PM after meeting members of the OIC. He had said it many times before but the ground disagrees with him; they just want him out before the country is so messed up beyond recognition and hew refuses to listen to the Rakyat. This statement however does not condone that the people would prefer a alternative government led by the traitorous DSAI and his loose pakatan of different and incoherent ideological political parties. DSAI’s bail should be revoked and the bugger be kept in jail; so what if his supporters want to have street protest – its better sooner than later knowing the kind of mischief that bugger is up to.

As a flip flopper, PM is expected to mishandle the Datuk Ahmad Ismail debacle. The sentiments among the bulk of Malay population are with Datuk Ahmad Ismail and any action against him by UMNO will not have support. If any stern action as purported in the media, is taken against him will potentially have a backlash on UMNO grassroots and the Malay population.

The Malays had had enough of foul plays and consequences arising from irresponsible promises of reforms and the many directionless actions of the Abdullah Badawi regime. PM is simply jus incompetent.

I doubt very much that PM and a docile UMNO Supreme Council can do much about Datuk Ismail; it’s best to let the issue slowly die away. But if a stern decision is taken, then UMNO must also take stern action against those irresponsible leaders of the Bar Council for their many despicable actions which have caused much injury to the Malays, that those associated with the Hindraf should kept in jail perpetually nor allowed back to the country and condemned by all BN parties, etc, etc, etc…… Any stern action is wishful because the issue at hand is most complicated and is merely a symptom of a much bigger problem. It cannot be shelved aside or resolved by merely any action. PM should realise that he can’t force the Malays to accept such illusionary solutions.

FINALLY CENSURING “MALAYSIA TODAY”

2008-08-28T19:13:00.000-07:00

Allah Praise Be To Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Beneficent, Lord of the Worlds and Hereafter; the Holy Month of Ramadan is just around the corner.

Let us refrain from reading and talking fitnah, nonsense and garbage not only during the Holy Month but also thereafter such as aggressively promoted by RPK. It’s good that finally RPK’s blog has been censored by the Malaysian authorities. Whoever is responsible for censuring Malaysia Today deserves a pat on the back. For those die hard RPK and DSAI supporters, Malaysia Today remains accessible through its mirror website.
I
t was reported in the Star 29/8/08, pg W32, the following;
“Muslims embrace economic globalization as long as it doesn’t mean western influences will snuff out their cultural identity, the head of a US-based and polling group said on Wednesday; Steve Kull, head of the World Pubic Opinion”

I am most certain censuring Malaysia Today is an endorsement of the goal of keeping unhealthy western values out of our rich Malaysian culture.

PERMATANG PAUH – READING BETWEEN THE LINES

2008-08-27T06:37:00.000-07:00

A forgone conclusion that came through with a bigger majority to DSAI.

It is not such an insulting humiliation for PM to loose to a proven sodomite.

DSAI won not because the people love him but because he was used by the people particularly the Silent majority to send concertedly a clear message to PM (and his family) that they are a rejected lot. Rumours are rife that many BN particularly UMNO members too voted for PKR or did not have the strength and commitment to go for the polls. GE 12 was a protest vote against PM and so was PP. Whatever pep talk PM had with his branch and divisional heads on being “traitors” as one of the supposedly core reasons for the disastrous GE 12 had come to naught.

While PM’s political future (including arrogant members of his family) is all but dead as far I am concern, the PP results is a blessing in disguise for UMNO. This is just one constituency, not a general election but the indicator for the trend in the next elections. Accepting such reality, UMNO should take the final courage to convince PM to resign soonest rather than see the party heading to the doldrums and potential demise.

Malaysian Malaysia and Ketuanan Rakyat will see PP as a golden victory for their multi-racialism but to many others like me, not necessarily so. However the longer PM stays put and continues to endanger the peaceful and development prospects of the country by his lack of governance and poor management decision making, the more rapid the Pakatan Rakyat will capitalise and expand its influence on the people until BN and UMNO will no longer hold any significant influence.

Demographics could have changed certain aspects of the political landscape in this country but I am certain BN and UMNO could still remain most relevant with certain adaptations albeit a new and firm leadership.

So UMNO, the people has spoken again - they want PM out. Expect to be rejected by the people if you do not reject PM at the forth coming UMNO elections cum year end.

INVENTING NEW RELIGIOUS RITUALS – RPK A SHAM

2008-08-24T08:57:00.000-07:00

1 Desperate RPK?
I am most happy when Muslims quote the ayat Quran and hadith in explaining the wonderful way of life called Islam, even by people like RPK or his champion horse, DSAI who seem to be an icon that can do no sin.

But when people like RPK quotes 2 verses of the Quran (Surah 3. Al ‘Imran, Verse 61 and Surah 24. An-Nur) and an authentic hadith on Aishah in his desperate attempt to put forward his point in advocating the innocence of DSAI and then said in his posting “Trust not these religious people. Many are fakes and phoneys. The Quran says these people will sell their religion for money. This is not what I say. This is what the Quran says. And would the Quran lie?”, my goose pimples rise, my blood boils and wish that we would back in the early days of Islam so that such narrow minded people could answer for their selfish infidelity and evil mindedness. But then again, such indecency and falsehood persistently demonstrated by RPK has been around since time in memorial and going back in time would be meaningless.

2. RPK’s Right of Speech?
RPK heavily relies on the universal human rights declaration (right to free speech) to pacify his ardent supporters to his blog.
An early emphasis on freedom of speech during the Islamic Golden Age was first declared by the Caliph Umar in the 7th century. Later during the Abbasid period, freedom of speech was also declared by al-Hashimi, a cousin of caliph Al-Ma'mun (786–833), in the following letter to a religious opponent.
"Bring forward all the arguments you wish and say whatever you please and speak your mind freely. Now that you are safe and free to say whatever you please appoint some arbitrator who will impartially judge between us and lean only towards the truth and be free from the empery of passion, and that arbitrator shall be Reason, whereby God makes us responsible for our own rewards and punishments. Herein I have dealt justly with you and have given you full security and am ready to accept whatever decision Reason may give for me or against me. For "There is no compulsion in religion" (Qur'an 2:256) and I have only invited you to accept our faith willingly and of your own accord and have pointed out the hideousness of your present belief. Peace be with you and the blessings of God!”
Hence where do we place RPK (and the funders of his blog who think they have religious credentials to do so) in respect of our way of life in resolving contentious issues of critical importance to our UMMAH. RPK is far way off the mark from seeking the truth.

3. The Issue Before Us.
RPK’s latest posting on an SD by Thagarajoo, Nallakaruppan’s one-time driver, under title of “Najib: Muslim by birth, Hindu by practice”, to many is another attempt to discredit Najib and his sumpah laknat about his involvement with Atlantuya.
In the Quran, Muslims have been told be wary about suspect sources of information coming from unbelievers like Thagarajoo and we are all aware of RPK’s blind loyalty (for the greenback?) to DSAI and out right desperation to take down Najib at all cost.
Who is RPK to ask the Muslim masses to discard those who have more authority on matters of our religion and issues pertaining to the UMMAH?
We have to admit that RPK, like many other ordinary Muslims, has no local standi to advance his personal thoughts on religious subject matters and calling those religious people as fakes and phonies, starkly speak most ugly of RPK’s heinous character.
RPK associates himself so closely with DSAI’s political ambitions and personal actions; that rot in RPK is doing more harm than good to DSAI. One also wonders why the PAS leadership and their so call ulamas (whose authority on Islam maybe found lacking in many instances mired with political ambitions and power) are supporting DSAI and RPK. Definitely RPK has not been righteous to the UMMAH in most of his postings and in his writing, he apparently seems least afraid of Allah’s final judgment.
I am sure PAS is most aware what kafir and mengkafir is all about (the more so in RPK’s misuse of SD of unacceptable Islamic characters) and the dangers that DSAI being perceived tool of the US administration. Has PAS been dirtied with money or power in supporting indirectly the disunity among the UMMAH that they dare not speak out on the stark indecencies and unethically Islamic brought out via RPK’s postings and actions especially when Islam and its ethics are concern? Are there those in PAS who support such acts by RPK?

Now observe RPK’s statements extracted from his posting;
“The Quran has warned us about such people. ‘Religious people’ since time immemorial have been exploiting and distorting religion for monetary gain as well as to attain power. Religious people are very dangerous. They know they have the confidence of the majority of the people who are not only simple-minded but place great trust on people perceived as ‘men of God’.This is not only a problem in Islam but in all religions as well. Trust not these religious people. Many are fakes and phoneys. The Quran says these people will sell their religion for money. This is not what I say. This is what the Quran says. And would the Quran lie when the Quran is regarded by Muslims as the word of God?”

I would believe many “religious” people and true aspirants, who regard Islam as the final complete way of life, would shake their head and ask RPK to mengucapkan again; its more than just “the pot calling the kettle black”, what kind of Muslim do we call RPK? And what speaks of DSAI if he does not halt such derogatory actions by RPK?
I am hopeful that the Malay voters in Permatang Pauh would caste their voting based on the best attributes and characters of the candidates and not be fooled by a blasphemous character like RPK. I am also hopeful that PAS members from within and outside the PP community will reflect and do the same in the greater interest of our UMMAH.

Set out below certain short extracts from the internet sufficient to demonstrate that RPK and those people like him care little on the sanctity of the Quran and Islamic jurisprudence, a wonderful realm of knowledge beyond RPK’s comprehension. In Islam, knowledge is action but I am certain by his action, RPK cares not the value of knowledge. Instead, RPK makes a mockery of himself; he is a SHAM of the highest degree.

4. Background of our syaria and interpretations of the Quranic verses
“There is no strictly static set of laws of sharia. Sharia is more of a system of how law ought to serve humanity, a consensus of the unified spirit, based on the Qur'an (the religious text of Islam), hadith (sayings and doings of Muhammad and his companions), Ijma (consensus), Qiyas (reasoning by analogy) and centuries of debate, interpretation and precedent.”
In Malaysia, where most of us Muslims belong to the shafii school:
“In Imami-Shi'i law, the sources of law (usul al-fiqh) are the Qur'an, anecdotes of Muhammad's practices and those of the 12 Imams, and the intellect (aql). The practices called Sharia today, however, also have roots in local customs (al-urf).
“At the heart of Islamic law lies the teachings of God and the acts and sayings of His Prophet, Muhammad;[12] therefore, sharia, Islamic law, is founded on the Qur'an and the Sunnah. However, sharia was not fully developed at the time of Muhammad's death, but rather it evolved around the Muslim community or Ummah through which it would serve”
“However, people do not change overnight nor do their habits of everyday life – sharia was indeed guided through its development by lifestyles of the tribes in which was initially absorbed into Islam.”
“After the death of Muhammad sharia continued to undergo fundamental changes, beginning with the reigns of caliphs Abu Bakr (632-34) and Umar (634-44) in which many decision making matters were brought to the attention of the Prophet's closest comrades for consultation.[17] In AD 662, during the reign of Mu'awiya b. Abu Sufyan, life ceased to be nomadic and undertook an urban transformation which in turn created matters not originally covered by Islamic law.[17] Each and every gain, loss, and turn of Islamic society has played an active role in developing sharia which branches out into fiqh and Qanun respectively.

5. Tafsir or Interpretation of the Quran.
Muslims believe that it is prohibited to perform Qur'anic interpretation using solely one's own opinion. This, they base on an authenticated hadith of Muhammad which states that it is prohibited.
Imam al-Ghazali (qs), how-ever, qualifies this tradition, with the following under-standing, "The truth is that prophetic Traditions (akhbar) and statements of the Prophet's companions and of other pious Muslims in early Islam (athar) prove that for men of understanding there is wide scope in the meanings of the Qur'an. Thus 'Ali (may God be pleased with him!) said, "except that God bestows understanding of the Qur'an upon a man." If there is no meaning other than that which is related [from Ibn 'Abbas and other exegetes] what is that understanding of the Qur'an [which is bestowed upon a man]? The Prophet (may God bless him and greet him) said, "Surely the Qur'an has an outward aspect, an inward aspect, a limit and a prelude." This is also related. by Ibn Mas'ud on his own authority and he is one of the scholars of Qur'anic interpretation. [If there are no meanings of the Qur'an besides the outward ones], what is the meaning of its outward aspect, inward aspect, limit and prelude? 'Ali (may God show regard to his face!) said, "If I so will I can certainly load seventy camels with the exegesis of the Opening Sura of the Book." What then is the meaning of this statement of 'Ali, when the outward exegesis of this sura is extremely short us [and can be set forth in a few pages]? Abu Darda' said, "One cannot [fully] understand the religion until one sees the Qur'an from different perspectives." A certain religious scholar said, "For every Qur'anic verse there are sixty thousand understandings [comprehensible to man]. The understandings of it which remain [incomprehensible to man] are even more than these in number." [1]
The Qur'an, the utmost authority on Islam asserts that the word was sent to all of mankind and it is up to the whole of mankind to receive it and sincerely ponder upon its meaning. Islam acknowledges no "clergy" nor monopolisation of "The Word of Allah (swt) i.e God", Islam only acknowledges the "knowledgeable" ones from among a community of people, the "Ulama" or scholars if they are known and famous for their Islamic correct faith. In the Qur'an, Allah i.e. God exhorts mankind to "think" and "ponder" and "realise" for themselves, thereby awakening true belief inside each and every human being.

THE SUMPAH LAKNAT: MY TAKE.

2008-08-21T07:07:00.000-07:00

In connection to an article posted by RPK on inventing new religious rituals re sumpah laknat while holding the Quran, I dismissed his selfish and bias arguments. Some of my thoughts on this matter taking into account developments to-date are follows:

While RPK is not an authority on hadith, his reliance of a hadith to prove a point is inconsistent or hypocritical of his persistent usage of hearsay such as in his defamatory statutory declarations. RPK, true like his champion horse DSAI, has been twisting stories and facts with a strong slant towards a forked tongue creating I used to call grandfather’s tales. A hadith is the description on the Prophet’s action and customs by an actual narrative related by a chain of authenticated narrators, the names of those who narrators are clearly mentioned. These were written about 100 years after the death of the Prophet where the source of information was mostly memories of the Faithful. During that time too, there were no technology yet for mass paper printing, video and photography. To avoid the truth being lost or manipulated, the hadiths underwent a systematic and thorough authentication and classified accordingly.

Present day, technology for recording and printing are abundance. In his statutory declarations, holding steadfast to his universal declaration of human rights, RPK refused to give the names of his sources, only saying his source is most reliable. His stories and accusations contained in the declarations have since been refuted by the concern parties making the said statutory declarations dysfunctional and he, a “supposed” bankrupt, is now subject to being sued in the millions for his defamatory statements. But yet RPK would smile as he had successfully caused much confusion and rapture in our political system.

As one prominent blogger puts RPK as “He has a large following proves that people love the stuff he has been dishing out. Raja Petra's strength lies in developing a readable story based on a bit of facts and a lot of opinions (and he's willing to go down defending what he writes)”. When I viewed RPK’s postings and his commentaries, my opinion is “birds of a feather flock together”; his followers re commentaries were mostly those staunch believers of $Malaysian Malaysia’s new DNA and just like him and his champion horse, they love character bashing, preying on rumour mongering and half truths for the quest of a generic Malaysian DNA whilst hungrily degrading certain personalities without any decency and respect.

RPK used a classic hadith to prove a point on adultery (between a man and woman) but could not produce an alternative authentic hadith with specific reference to sodomy. As there is n$one, RPK twisting the facts with the said hadith. Local religious authorities including Ketua Pemuda PAS Selangor have already stated that the circumstances pertaining to adultery are different from sodomy. RPK seemed to reject such religious confirmation and thus again resort to twisting facts to confuse the Rakyat. DSAI also tried to use a foreign “ulama” from Egypt and Gus Dur (the blind Indonesian head of an ulama body who can’t see past his nose) in justifying going to syariah court in dismissing the sodomy 2 case. Is DSAI making a mockery of the Islamic judiciary system to deflect the many request for him to swear in God’s name on the grave sin he has been accused of committing?

Because of the intense commotion caused by RPK in accusing DPM Najib‘s involvement of the Atlantuya case, Najib took a similar oath in denying his accused role. As such, RPK’s image drastically eroded including amongst bloggers except his taksub supporters.

Swearing by the Quran; a Christian ritual? The Mufti of WPKL (the religious authority having jurisdiction where Saiful took his oath) has commented that swearing by holding the Quran which Saiful was not following the Christian ritual. The Mufti of Perlis commented that the swearing by holding a copy of the Quran did not invalidate Saiful’s swearing re sumpah laknat. Certain top officials of PAS would not endorse the sumpah laknat.

As we are all aware, millions of Muslims uses the beads in their religious chanting and wear the skull or ketayab as a headgear; these two are traditions continued from Jewish customs. In January 2007, Keith Ellison the first Muslim to the US Congress took an oath using the Quran instead of a bible. Definitely one would not find any hadith to support such act because during the time of the Prophet, such situation could not arise not merely because USA was non- existence yet but because the spread of Islam had just begun then. However, shouldn’t such act by the Muslim congressman be admired and respected? On 13 Dec 2007, the late PPP chairperson Benazir Bhutto made her party candidates swear on the Quran during the closed-door meeting that after their elections they would not indulge in horse-trading and would give due respect and importance to party workers and refrain from exploiting them.

Islam is definitely not simply about rigorous rituals or Arabic customs but as usual conveniently some people would place more emphasis on the form rather then the substance. What’s funny is that the PAS ulamas and other so-called pro DSAI ulamas are most aware about such matter. The Malays generally practiced several religious rituals and customs, some of which are vigorously and constantly re-innovated such as in dowries, marriage ceremonies, burial headstones and kenduris etc some which are alien or not encouraged by Islam or even declared by some as syirik but these practices, rightfully or wrongfully, have been generally accepted by the Malay population. What is the big fuss about the swearing holding a copy of the Quran when ultimately the sumpah laknat is about one’s noble intention and action; the realm of the Almighty, the Most Knowledgeable.

DNA testing is an accepted new technology in the present day in proving certain associations including for use in criminal cases. This technology was not present during the advent of Islam although I am sure its foundation in the Holy Book can be found via careful diagnosis and interpretations of the Quran and authentic hadiths by expert Islamic theologians. Should Muslims discard using such useful technology? Yet DSAI had quickly dismissed that technology, accusing the relevant institutions of misusing it against his interest i.e. can be falsified. DSAI consistently reverts to the original covenant on adultery in syariah law i.e the presence of 4 witnesses. It should be noted that in Sodomy 1 DSAI and the parties concerned were found to indulge in such activities but the court of federal appeal was not unanimous its decision on the exact time of the crime. The fact remains that DSAI was a sodomite.

The call by many for DSAI to swear the sumpah laknat continues but DSAI continues to deflect such request. The sumpah laknat, although irrelevant to the criminal charge of sodomy in court that carries the maximum penalty of 20 years jail, carries a heavy psychological weight on the integrity of the persons taking the oath in the eyes of many. A Muslim needs to relate and adhere to Allah’s condemnation on sodomy in the Quran and Hadith as per the story of Nabi Lot to justify his/ her perception on sodomites because Allah’s punishment is eternal, presently and the hereafter.

The failure by DSAI to swear the sumpah laknat speaks for himself compounded by the disgustful manner he sought refuge at the Turkish Ambassador’s residence, on his proclaimed fear of assassination, his refusal to undertake a DNA test as requested by the Police to assist in the investigation and the prompting of the Permatang Pauh by-election before he was to be charged and so on and so on (the latest being his declaration that he did not have cronies during his term of office then as Deputy PM/ Finance Minister and Malaysian Government backs Isreal). DSAI’s many deception only enhances the perception that Sodomy 2 had indeed happened; DSAI’s many deceptive ploys blatantly do not represent the actions of the innocence and indeed he looks guiltier by each passing day.

The rakyat watches and DSAI’s hollow character understandably continues to be horribly tarnished. To many Malaysian citizens, the common view holds that DSAI is only concern about his own political well being and not that of the economics of the Rakyat or the country. However such view may not impact the voting at Permatang Pauh because the voters are rightfully depressed with several other issues against the BN particularly incompetence of the leadership; the catalyst of change is absent in UMNO to result in a drastic change to vote for BN.

For DSAI not to swear the sumpah laknat may be understandable in defence of his right (read universal declaration of human rights) and rejection of a respected view of the commons. However I just don’t understand why other Muslims and some so called ulamas (especially those known for their “holier than thou” attitude) are so taksub against this matter and whose actions and commentaries may mislead and confuse innocent Muslims on the supposedly honest and faithful role of those political leaders bearing the banner of Islam on the forefront. Is Allah’s Perfected Religion being abused for the sake of Political Corruption (read RM)? All these kecoh among Muslims and Non-Muslims alike is centred on one single “insan” by the name of DSAI; is he amongst the “small dajjal” or otherwise what kind of destructive “insan” is he?

All Muslims Beware Of This Man Called DSAI and his destructive association with The United States Administration.

SIL: YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED

2008-08-19T12:40:00.000-07:00

Wow…did you see those pictures of the SIL dressed a female dancer? What a shame, the more so SIL should have kept his mouth shut in Malaysian politics all this while. Otherwise he be like those chickens with their non stop shitting; a new big slut in town and SIL would find DSAI as his lovable buggery partner. Guess the Prince of Darkness prefers a better nick name “the Pondan Prince of Putrajaya”. Kick him out of UMNO Youth; he’s a big, big liability.

DSAI: NAME HIS CRONIES

2008-08-19T12:34:00.000-07:00

DSAI have asked the rakyat to name his cronies as he claimed he has none.

To PKR, PAS and Malaysian Malaysia; that’s the real DSAI for you who speaks with a forked tongue and can’t differentiate between truth and falsehood, what more the difference between buggery and cronyism. Funny, what a sinful liar whom Tok Guru, LK Siang etc wishes to be associated with!!!

PETROL PRICE AND COST OF LIVING

2008-08-19T12:25:00.000-07:00

We all can expect petrol and diesel prices to be cheaper from 1st September 2008 but the prices of other goods which have risen will not fall and so will not our overall cost of living. If PM had been patient and staggered the petrol/ diesel price increases, the impact on our cost of living may not have been that burdensome. Increasing and adjusting salaries will assist the young and income earning to sustain the higher cost of living but not those who have retired especially from the private sector. Also the more elderly who are least marketable will also be adversely affected. These sectors of the population who have limited capabilities in adjusting to a higher cost of living will form a perpetual group of disgruntled voters. Thank you PM, the country could not have appointed a wiser and capable Finance Minister in these challenging times.

PERMATANG PAUH – PM PATUT MELETAK JAWATAN SECEPAT MUNGKIN.

2008-08-19T03:40:00.000-07:00

1. Permatang Pauh – amat sedih bagi UMNO. Ini adalah satu pertarungan yang sepatutnya amat mudah sekali bagi UMNO/ BN menang tetapi kerana masaalah kepimpinan, kemenangan memang amat sukar.

2. Pengundi Melayu berpecah dua; satu yang taksub kepada DSAI serta dikelirukan oleh pemimpin PAS yang mengambil kesempatan dan sebelah lagi yang berpihak kepada BN yang juga akan berpecah lagi sekiranya kepimpinannya terus membuat pelbagai kesilapan.

Bagi ahli PAS yang menyokong DSAI, harap mereka sedar sebelum terlambat akan senyuman dan penipuan AL-Setan dan kuncu-kuncu nya yang ingin melihat umat Islam sedunia terus berlaga untuk kepentingan seorang manusia yang bernama DSAI. Kepentingan seorang lagi insan yang disumbat duburnya tidak dipedulikan. Isu sumpah dengan nama Allah / Quran pun dipermainkan – itulah PAS yang mementingkan kuasa politik, lihatlah PAS dengan senangnya mengabaikan pengharaman judi, arak dll setelah berjinak dengan PKR dan DAP; mungkin PAS sedar akan pendirian parti itu yang selama ini tidak praktikal setelah dibuka mata oleh kuasa politik; sedih sekali, mungkin tersesat kut! Saya lebih percaya kepada pendapat Mufti Perlis daripada ulama-ulama PAS di dalam hal sumpah ini kerana beliau tiada berkepentingan politik dan memang iklas.

3. UMNO telah memilih calon yang dianggap terbaik tetapi masih tidak mampu mencabar DSAI. DSAI melaungkan satu kenyataan yang tidak dapat ditepis iaitu kepimpinan BN yang lemah, PM kita yang sentiasa dimaki hamun oleh begitu ramai rakyat. Peralihan kuasa sehingga 2010 yang diumumkan masih tidak direstui oleh kebanyakan pengundi. Saperti keputusan GE12 yang lalu, inilah factor utama yang akan menentukan keputusan pilihanraya kecil Permatang Pauh

4. Isu terbaru Sodomy 2 dan isu-isu kepentingan Melayu yang lain seperti isu ugama forum Bar Council dan UiTM baru-baru ini banyak menghakiskan watak/peribadi/integriti DSAI. Justeru itu, ia boleh membantu mengukuhkan kedudukan calon BN. Sebaliknya, pengundi bukan Melayu dengan dorongan DAP serta human rights groups termasuk PKR akan terpengaruh untuk mengundi DSAI; jelas DSAI tidak dilihat sebagai seorang pejuang Melayu dan ugama.

5. DSAI telah membuat banyak kesilapan baru-baru ini dan beliau mungkin berpendapat pengundi bukan Melayu yang akan menentukan kemenangan beliau.

6. DSAI terus dapat sokongan luar negara dan kali ini kononnya sokongan daripada pihak ulamak Indonesia Gus Dur. Seperti sokongan pentadbiran Amerika Syarikat dan persatuan human rights antarabangsa yang hanya ingin merosakkan ugama Islam, Kerajaan harus terus menegur niat buruk mereka supaya jangan masuk campur tangan di dalam hal negara ini.

Anasir-anasir sesat ini yang memperjuangan pendapat/ pendirian mereka atas asas Universal Human Right Declaration saperti yang dilaungkan RPK patut “dipancong” habis-habisan. Sekiranya tidak, dunia akan menuduh BN sebagai tidak telus melakukan pengundian dan gagal berlaku adil. Ini satu lagi penderhakaan besar DSAI; matlamat beliau hanya mementingkan diri beliau sendiri kerana gila kuasa sehingga sanggup mengadai maruah bangsa, negara dan ugama.

7. Walaupun ramai pundit menjangka DSAI akan menang walaupun tipis tetapi UMNO/ BN patut mengambil kesempatan ini untuk membukti

· bagaimana buruknya perangai peribadi DSAI (termasuk sebagai seorang peliwat seperti yang terbukti di Sodomy 1) dan terbukti dengan pelbagai tipu helah dalam Sodomy 2 termasuk tidak bersumpah laknat.
· tipu helah dan kesilapan ketara beliau (sekarang dan semasa menjadi DPM satu dahulu ( IMF Krisis kewangan 1997) yang tidak mementingkan negara, bangsa dan ugama. Ingat harta negara hampir dirompak oleh perompak bangsa asing dan hak istimewa Melayu juga hampir tergadai.
· Belau merupakan perompak utama negara sebanyak RM3b semasa menjadi DPM. Dengan pelbagai penipuan dan corak politik beliau yang kurang sihat termasuk menggunakan RPK , beliau telah banyak menghura-harakan Negara
· derharka kepada umat Islam melalui pendekatan beliau dengan tokoh-tokoh pentadbiran America Syarikat, sebagai profesor jemputan terhormat di universiti negara itu dan juga sebagai Pengerusi badan UN Foundation of the Future yang dianjorkan dengan berjuta-juta USD dengan matlamat merosakkan penganut umat Islam di Negara-negara Timur Tengah dan Benua Afrika melalui perkembangan program-program reformasi, demokrasi dan liberalisasi ugama Islam. Gus Dur bukanlah ulama negara ini.

Masanya sudah tiba, dalam tempoh singkat ini sebelum pengundi buat keputusan, media utama dan bloggers harus berulangkali dan penuh semangat mencerminkan serta membuktikan dengan terperinci latar belakang DSAI sebagai seorang pemimpin yang tidak boleh dipercayai dan tidak layak menjadi pemimpin negara. Kita tidak harus takut dengan hujah, pendapat dan pendirian bangsat asing yang akan, apa sekalipun terjadi, mengatakan BN telah menggunakan taktik kotor dan tidak telus.

Akhirnya, PM harus bertanggong jawab dengan prestasi BN dan keputusan pilihanraya nanti. PM harus melepas jawatan secepat mungkin, sebaik-baiknya sebelum akhir tahun ini, untuk kepentingan rakyat; lupakanlah sahaja segala kerja yang ingin beliau selesaikan – pengganti beliau bolih meneruskan semuanya.

AN APPEAL & REMINDER TO MUSLIMS: REJECT PRK & DSAI MISUSE OF THE UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS; ITS PLAIN DEBAUCHERY

2008-08-13T12:51:00.000-07:00

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states as follows:

“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers. Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association”

I have much disgust the majority of human rights promoters in this country for being irresponsible and deceitful in causing much distress, chaos and hardship to this beloved country of ours;

1 DAP – the Chinese chauvinist party with its Malaysian Malaysia concept; everybody in Malaysia enjoys the same equitable rights. The Malays have rejected and will continue to reject such wishful ideals which rejected the existing Social .Contract and Rule of Law.

2 PKR – the supposedly multi racial party with Ketuanan Rakyat as its slogan. Although most of the Gurka members maybe Malays, the party has a substantial number of Non-Malays (yanadays/ Indians who are lawyers) at its leadership. Like the Malaysian Malaysia concept, the PKR will be rejected by the Malays eventually. The PKR have benefited from the protest votes against the weakling and corrupted PM, not due to PKR’s own merits. With his RM3B and his close association with the US administration, DSAI seemed to have been able to coy his followers. To many, DSAI does not have the leadership character to lead the country; he’s good at talking silly. As he rejected Ketuanan Melayu, he is being used as an icon by the certain Malays to put pressure on PM to resign soonest. PAS has already indicated the rejection of any efforts which will curtail and adversely affect the special rights of the Malaya and of their Religion i.e Islam. I fail to see any future in the Pakatan.

3 The Bar Council (mostly represented by vocal yanadays/ Indians) - and the other human rights groups including certain individual Malays like RPK or who are western/ American trained social/ political scientists who have little respect for the Social Contract and Rule of Law. They look towards the US and UN declaration of human rights as the source of inspiration to remedy what they believe as hindrances to the country’s efficient economic productivity and efficiency in meeting the global challenges i.e the formation of the Malaysian DNA, no Melayu, Chinese or Indians etc.

The Prophet (PUBH)’s last sermon
How then do Muslims conduct their way of life under this period of uncertainty and tribulations where there is so much falsehood, deceit, temptations i.e. the world being up side down? Nay, do not be hypocrites as misled by the Satan; seek guidance from the appropriate channels.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights as stated earlier has a lot of ingredients missing therefore making the declaration most faulty and has become a debauchery for vested and selfish entities particularly the US administration. As an ordinary Muslim, I hold fast to the Prophet (PUBH)’s farewell speech at Mount Arafat as my guidance, instead of the human rights declaration, which I sincerely believe other Muslims will do so too.

Malaysia’s Precedence
We Malaysians live by rules and conduct acceptable to each other; we respect each others religions and not interfere. We have a social contract which our founders readily accepted and we have live fairly peaceful and with prosperity for the past 50 years.

US Unjustified Interferences, actions – what UN human rights declaration?
Why is RPK insistence that the US has the right to intervene in Malaysia’s internal affairs with regard to DSAI sodomy 2 investigations? The US has misused and misguided the human rights declaration for their selfish agenda, over and over again causing much mayhem and plundering. It is frightening that people like RPK and DSAI rely heavily on the US as the world’s biggest economy for their selfish sustenance. If you disagree about US and their associates’ hands are perpetually dirty in misusing human rights declaration, see some of the issues summarised below:

i) The Iraq War – Global influential mass media were utilised to influence the governments of the world and the US public to support the conquest of Iraq under the pretext of removing weapons of mass destruction. Thus the biggest joke of the century when we all know the real objective of the war was to secure the enormous oil resources of Iraq etc. Look at the devastation and loss of innocent lives in Iraq after 4 years of invasion and the toll keeps rising.
ii) Britain, the US main alley in the Iraq war– Tony Blair’s spinning in justification for Britain support for the Iraq war. I would believe that DSAI who has the gift of the gap (double forked tongue) is our equivalent of Tony Blair, a war criminal to many.
iii) The Guatanamo Bay prison camp (Gitmo) and Abu Ghaib prison – what type of human rights exists in these atrocious camps; another big shame/ sham of the US administration?
iv) The continuing internment/ rendition of Muslims within the context of the US global war against terror (read Islam); human rights ke?
v) Afghanistan – what happen there, all in the interest of oil?
vi) Pakistan – consistent interference in the internal security of Pakistan/ Afghanistan?
vii) Presently Geogia conflict with Russia – any US Administration interference re Oil again? Never judge the book by its cover.

There could be a thousand more examples I could relate which demonstrated how the US administration hypocritical actions though mass disinformation making the human rights declaration meaningless.

Now looking at how RPK warrants the use of such universal freedom in producing half truths by hearsay and make up stories in his statutory declarations and postings, we can only suspect the reasons for RPK supporting US interference in our internal affairs. Gosh, what are the US Administration plans for Malaysia under DSAI, I am so horrified of such thoughts. Thus for those who dislike or disapprove RPK’s brash and false methodology in his undivided support of DSAI, there’s no reason to endorse RPK’s boss ie DSAI.

So my fellow Muslim brothers and sisters, if need be think carefully and then cast away your support against the US Administration, DSAI and RPK who have made a debauchery in capitalising on the good intentions of the UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS for their selfish interests. Refer to the Prophet (PUBH)’s Last Sermon; that’s our complete way of Life and hold steadfast.

Prophet Muhammad's (PUBH) Last Sermon
[This sermon was delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul-Hijjah 10 A.H. in the 'Uranah valley of Mount Arafat' in Mecca.] – extracted from http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/prophet/lastsermon.html

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

After praising and thanking Allah the Prophet (saws) said:
"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that he will indeed reckon your deeds. Allah has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligations shall henceforth be waived. Your capital is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has judged that there shall be no interest and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn 'Abd'al Muttalib [the Prophet's uncle] be waived.

Every right arising out of homicide in pre-Islamic days is henceforth waived and the first such right that I waive is that arising from the murder of Rabiah ibn al Harithibn.

O People, the unbelievers indulge in tampering with the calendar in order to make permissible that which Allah forbade, and to forbid that which Allah has made permissible. With Allah the months are twelve in number. Four of them are holy, three of these are successive and one occurs singly between the months of Jumada and Shaban.

Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope of that he will be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right, then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.

O People, listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadhan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.

All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor does a black have any superiority over a white - except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not therefore do injustice to yourselves. Remember one day you will meet Allah and answer your deeds. So beware: do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me, and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Qur'an and my Sunnah and if you follow these you will never go astray.

All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly. Be my witness, O Allah, that I have conveyed Your message to Your people."

My Note: A practicing Muslim should be able to understand, appreciate and endorse the gist of the last Sermon; there’s nothing to be misinterpreted. Non-Muslims however may not figure out what the gist is and so they may likely misinterpret for their own convenience and selfish interests!

THE HERALD: FREEZE THE LISENCE AND BE DONE WITH IT.

2008-08-13T06:32:00.000-07:00

I understand the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states as follows:

“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers. Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association”

That’s where Suhakam comes from and has voiced its grave concern about the Home Ministry withdrawing the Herald’s license because of the editor’s write up on the Permatang Pauh by election; supposedly Suhakam believes the Herald has every right to do so.

I disagree with Suhakam and the other human rights organisations which support the Herald’s recent publication. There is presently too much confusion, musings, frustrations, anxiety etc perpetuated from sensitive communal issues in connection with the Social Contract, the word Allah, Malay Rights and Islamic Issues etc. The court case surrounding the word Allah is being intervened by 8 State Religious Council and yet to be resolved. The Sultans have come out informing the Rakyat not to dwell into sensitive religious issues. Overall, irrespective whether there is any truth, the Muslims are obviously suspicious of certain Non-Muslim groups seen presently attempting to interfere into the affairs of the Muslim religion and race, adversely affecting the status quo.

The Catholic Church, as a religious institution, should be aware of all these sensitiveness. As the Herald is a religious publication, the institution should rightfully focus on Christianity issues rather than dwell on that particular politically sensitive by election of Permatang Pauh. What is so important on this particular political write up compared to the religious messages the Gerald would normally propagate if the publication is jammed? It would be the solemn duty of any religious institution not to entangle in political issues especially so in light of ita ongoing case in court. For sure, even if the regulatory authorities have misread its intention of the “innocent” political write up, blowing up the issue would not be to the interest of fellow Christians.

But if the Catholic Church still insists on its rights to publicise such issue, then for the best interest of the greater community, I would say “Free the License and be done with it”.

WILL MUSLIMS NOT REJECT THE BAR COUNCIL’S FORUM?

2008-08-12T22:31:00.000-07:00

WILL MUSLIMS NOT REJECT THE BAR COUNCIL’S FORUM?

There are desperate non-Muslims who still cannot accept the fact that the Muslim protest at the Bar Council’s forum on last Saturday was representative of the majority of the Muslims.

These specific non-Muslims have a specific agenda – to promote Malaysian Malaysia where every Malaysian citizen from the various races and religion are equal in all respects and therefore they disagree on racial based politics. Seeking to create more chaos, these non-Muslims dream that moderate non Muslims should fight back for them because their voices were muzzled.

These non-Muslim views are most irresponsible, are up to nothing but to galvanise false hopes with full of deception and lies, further radicalise society with such sensitive issues. Yes there could be some Muslims who support the forum but definitely do not represent the bulk of the Muslims or so-called moderate Muslims in this country called Malaysia.

Any call by Muslims to support such forums should not be originated by Non-Muslims for the basic reasons that these Non-Muslims do not understand Islam, do not practice Islam thus why they should have such irresponsible thoughts on sensitive issues concerning Muslims? The ulterior motive of these specific non-Muslims having such thoughts speaks for them.

Islam has been brought down as a “way of life” to Muslims for all occasions and times. The perception that the political situation have changed since the past 10 years or since 8 March 2008 is a gross misnomer in respect of the Malay race and their religion. The perceptions that the “moderates will fight back” is irresponsible and can be viewed as an intention to divide Muslims. Who are these so called Muslim moderates? How does one classify them, on the basis of tolerance to other religions? For years, to the general Muslims, they have been most tolerant with the other religions; Muslims don’t interfere in the religions of others. Are moderates considered like Zaid Ibrahim; his balls are locked up for his insolence. Maybe PM - I think by now PM would know better how far his reforms and tolerances have been rejected. DSAI, those of Malaysian Malaysia must be kidding to take this chameleon as their “lord”. Azmin, Wan Azizah- they would be rejected if they do so!

Muslims go to the mosque for prayers every Friday, for special prayers during the fasting months and other special occasions. The Muslims follow and adhere to the prayers and advice of the specially appointed imans during these prayers. Muslims also listen to the special religious programs on TV where there is authorised representation I am sure no authoritative on Islam would dare speak on this special call by non-Muslims without being spite on. For one, most Muslims are aware of the dangers brought forward by western trained or propagated “Islamist’ scholars for their more liberal or tolerant views; these scholars are perceived as agents or bought out by the CIA or US administration who have caused a lot of havoc to the Muslim world including aggravating the disunity among the Muslims. To the Muslims, history has shown that the greatest danger to the Muslims comes from the hypocrites and they are well exemplified in the Quran. So these type of Muslims will be rejected by the others, the bulk whose voices are supposed to be muzzled.

To these Non-Muslims who think they have the authority to decide or deliberate on Islamic perceptions, my advice is to stop. The more these sensitive issues are pressed on, the more volatile and dangerous the situation becomes.

Please be aware, at the last Friday sermon at the mosque I attended to, the Iman called upon the congregation to be aware on the dangers lurking from such forums and other recent actions against the interest of Muslims. What would have happened if the Iman had called the congregation to demonstrate their anger against such insolence? Call the Police for help under the rights of our constitution? Nay, people like Ambiga, Mehrun and of cause LKS and Kapal Singh now want to push the fault back to the protesters although the warnings and signs have been very clear!! Bloody irresponsible cowards, aren’t they, hiding behind the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights, just like RPK in creating his havoc?

So for those who wish that moderate Muslims come forth, please do not try to divide the Muslims, there could be serious backlash.

BAR COUNCIL AND THEIR KIND WILL NEVER LEARN: SLAP THEM WITH THE ISA

2008-08-11T09:46:00.000-07:00

In relation to the Saturday Bar Council Forum which was “beheaded” from the onset.

GAMPANG, BIADAB, SETAN, BANGSAT ….. these are most befitting words for those members in the Bar Council who still insist that “the decision to hold Saturday's forum was right because it was timely and important to address a very problematic issue”.

TWISTED TOUNGUES, BASTARDS, IRRESPONSIBLE……for those who are “arguing that the protest was a reflection of a competition among three Malay-based parties — Pas, Umno and Parti Keadilan Rakyat”

As far as I To am concern, those Malay Muslim leaders from PAS, UMNO and PKR have full support from the bulk of the dominant silent majority. Thus, what’s the point of bring out such perception unless their twisted tongues are unable to accept the truth that their kind of forum and deliberations are never wanted in this country without paying a hefty price; social chaos.

Of Course, the likes of LKS and Malaysian Malaysia will definitely hissed out their despair as they cry seeing their desperate reinstituting Article 121(1A) withering. I have nothing to advice such people because they will never change, they are like that perpetually; our worlds are so far apart.

These people will never learn, will never accept the fact that what they are dwelling are very sensitive issues which disturbs peace of the majority, they insist that the minority rule prevails. Thus I see no other choice that should they still persists with their stubbornness and put to peril the peace and harmony of the country, they should be slapped with the ISA the soonest. The Bar Council should take the necessary recourse to change the President and hard headed human rights members. And of course, the defacto law minister Zaid Ibrahim should immediately tender his resignation.

Lawyer Malik Imtiaz Sarwar who said "For me, the 300 protesters who were outside protesting do not represent the majority Muslims or Islam."

I beg his pardon, has he not learnt yet from the rejection of his proposal for the Interfaith Commission which was “excreted” on by PM and the Muslim community. Who the fxxx does he think he is when even the pro-reform PM has comment his rejection while the populist defacto law minister’s tongue is completely tied up this time round.

To my Sisters in Islam, please understand the Brotherhood of Muslims, under the UMMAH. Perhaps get some revealing and valuable lessons from your fellow Muslims in London vis-à-vis the Islamic fraternity under Yusof Islam who have immense knowledge of such predicaments in UK and elsewhere. Do not be carried away by your worldly ideals and of a small minority interest at the expense of the greater majority. Equality has many dimensions and being human not all of us can see the light which is sacred to the All Omnipotent.

However, to my minority fellow Muslims who refuse to agree with the protest, I refer them to surah Al – Kafirun as a reminder.
Surah 109. The Disbelievers, Atheists (IslamiCity.com)
1. Say: O ye that reject Faith!
2. I worship not that which ye worship,
3. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
4. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,
5. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
6. To you be your Way, and to me mine.
Background of Surah
This surah was not revealed to preach religious tolerance as some people of today seem to think, but it was revealed in order to exonerate the Muslims from the disbelievers religion, their rites of worship, and their gods, and to express their total disgust and unconcern with them and to tell them that Islam and kufr (unbelief) had nothing in common and there was no possibility of their being combined and mixed into one entity.
Although it was addressed in the beginning to the disbelieving Quraish in response to their proposals of compromise, yet it is not confined to them only, but having made it a part of the Quran, Allah gave the Muslims the eternal teaching that they should exonerate themselves by word and deed from the creed of kufr wherever and in whatever form it be, and should declare without any reservation that they cannot make any compromise with the disbelievers in the matter of Faith. That is why this Surah continued to be recited when the people to whom it was addressed as a rejoinder, had died and been forgotten, and those Muslims also continued to recite it who were disbelievers at the time it was revealed, and the Muslims still recite it centuries after they have passed away, for expression of disgust with and dissociation from kufr and its rites is a perpetual demand of Faith.

BAR COUNCIL: SO IRRESPONSIBLE - “YOU ASK FOR IT”

2008-08-10T08:42:00.000-07:00

Why should the Bar Council wish to organise a forum on a topic considered as extremely sensitive and vocally rejected by the dominant majority race and religion? Perplexing isn’t it, is it to demonstrate a freedom of speech, the care for some who have been adversely affected or to promote greater religious tolerance and understanding?

Potential Dire Consequences.
It was fortunate that the organisers of the forum “Conversion to Islam Article 121 (1A) of the Federal Constitution, Subashini & Shamala Revisited” listened to the Police and forcefully with speed put a stop to the forum before anything unwarranted happened, fearing of coarse a swelling crowd of protesters getting out of control. I would believe if it was not stopped, the building insurers would have suffered, the HKL would be full of out patients, perhaps even the fire brigade would have a field day and wild rumours spreading like fire grinding the nation’s traffic to a halt and citizens staying behind close doors after emptying the supermarkets. A reminisce of May 13 1969!!!

Earlier Warnings
Prior to the forum, a number of top Malay politicians from UMNO and PAS and subsequently from PKR and numerous Malay Muslim NGO’s called for the forum to be abandoned due to its extreme sensitiveness as well as inappropriate for discussion in the open by personalities not officially representative nor authorised experts on the subject matter. Yet the Bar Council played as though they are so smart, not caring of what come may. The Bar Council sounded like an association of responsible citizens but lain cakap lain bikin – the Bar Council and its President were utterly irresponsible, most egoistic, arrogant and degrading of the legal profession of the country.

The Bar Council had earlier organised a forum on social contract which the Malay population rejected. The on going case of the word Allah by the Catholic Church is being monitored with grave concern by the Muslim community. The patience of the Malays and Muslims are being tested to the limits on issues so close to them. Everyone knows how sensitive issues relating to Islam is and yet in the west with their acute liberal and democratic beliefs, these Europeans care not about the belittling the Prophet antagonising Muslims world wide. The said topic of the forum, although not belittling the Prophet or Islam, is enough to anger the local Muslims. Malays could be an unpredictable race when they feel insulted above the limits and we can wonder why the word “amok” in the English language originated from the Malay language.

My earlier postings drew concern about a number of issues affecting Malay special rights and Islam which are being challenged directly and indirectly by the non Malay and non Muslim communities post GE 12 and the promise of certain reforms and tolerances promoted by PM and his corrupt defacto law minister, Zaid Ibrahim. Restitution to the original version of Article 121 (1A) was supposed to table in Parliament at its last session but fortunately there were stiff resistance and Zaid Ibrahim had to walk with the tail between his legs. There are other issues concerning the Islamic religion such as conversions and burial rights which are also igniting the frustrations of the Muslims, the serenity of the Malay Muslims are already being undermined.

Death of Resituating Article 121 (1A)
With this solid unity expressed by top politicians, political parties and NGO representing the Malay Muslim community, this proposed restitution of Article 121 to its original form looks to be perpetually deferred. I wish now to convey my preliminary condolences to LKS and Kapal Singh and of course the Malaysian Malaysia and the human rights groups for their long prized dream being shattered. Similarly, my expression of condolences to the mislead PM and Zaid Ibrahim as well as and the other black sheep among the Malays and Muslims.

Advice to Black Sheep
There are some Muslims (whom I call the black sheep) who have foolish perceptions such as “They (the protestors) make assumptions. For those of us who are mature and educated, we can think for ourselves. But not everyone who came today are educated. So they become very emotional because of this sensitive issue."

Such view was expressed by loner Mohd Nazari Ahmad – I have only this little advice to Nazari; what he said speaks of his stature and for such type of “mature and educated” Muslims – go to the proper Islamic religious councils for advice and apprecoate the word “submission”, seek and improve his Islamic knowledge by various means, insh’allah Allah will give them guidance. Nazari should realise that his perception seemed awkward when local Muslim leaders, more matured, experienced and from various ideological differences from within his beloved country are united in this stand; an common expression of the anger of the UMMAH. If Nazari is so confident of his perception, this much is the word from Allah “What he thinks he knows is just a little drop of the mighty ocean!”

The Bar Council and their likes would also say others are mere politicking as they put the blame elsewhere; I would give a damned about narrow perceptions, I am more concern of the peace and stability of this country. Such forum only allows opportunists to create havoc and the opportunist do not come from the organisers but unexplained intrusions, so again the Bar Council members are considered very irresponsible for creating such a potentially explosive situation.

PM and the Scumbags

Bar Council Press Statement issued prior to the Forum
“Although the Bar Council is heartened by the PM's recently-reported statements calling for more interfaith dialogues to be held in order to promote and ensure religious harmony among Malaysians of diverse beliefs and we welcome his assurance that there is space for such dialogues……..”
These statements that claim the forum will create misunderstanding, anger and tension, are in stark contrast with the PM's assurances”

In her opening speech, Bar Council president Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan invited the protesters to join the forum and share their dissenting views.
"I'm aware this forum has drawn many criticisms from many quarters. I don't have a problem with criticism... there are demonstrators outside, you can hear them," she said.
"We have absolutely no quarrel with them. They are exercising their freedom of speech. We hope they'll be allowed to carry out their demonstration peacefully. We're certainly not lodging any police report."

What would make the Bar Council headed by its President changed their view. Nothing, I presume, except if Molotov cocktails were thrown at them! Arrogance, deceitful and selfish bastards these scumbags are! How could members of the Bar Council appoint such irresponsible brats in their Executive Committee? It’s a sham, a real big disaster for the legal profession.

And we must not forget the role of PM and Zaid Ibrahim that make such “educated” personalities including prominent political non Muslims overjoyed with their liberal and tolerant proposals. Sickest scumbags – that’s my perception of the weakling PM and the scrupulous SIL and Zaid Ibrahim in their pursuit of agenda of populist and liberal reforms while they forget their roots. The advocating of liberal reforms is the root cause of the problem; those who thinks Malaysians are a mature lot on such issues are kidding themselves. There are some who says that the situation is not the same 10 years ago; that opinion or perception is pure BULLSHIT.

Forewarnings

The Muslim protestors have already given ample warnings that such forums should not be organised in the open otherwise there could be end of times. I fully support such warnings as well as the call to revamp the Bar Council Executive Council; remove all those scumbags especially Datuk Ambiga and those responsible in holding such forums. I trust the Bar Council members should know their responsibilities and take the appropriate actions.

So Datuk Ambiga, you are indeed irresponsible and you almost had blood in your hands. Best for you to quit the presidency and leave the country if you are not happy; don’t make the majority miserable even if they don’t belong to the same race and religion as you. We have had enough of you and your irresponsible kind and You Asked For It; GET LOST.

THE TIME IS ALMOST UP FOR DSAI.

2008-07-30T09:07:00.000-07:00

Anybody with experience going to specialists’ doctors for examination would know the difference; the GP’s medical expertise and check up is limited. Those who watch CSI would already sense the difference – the details required. More so when one needs to get a medical report for certain additional purposes say a legal suit or for lodging a police complain whereby the report has to be most extensive and credible to stand in court. I assisted someone recently at HKL and it was a long and detail process. I recently helped my daughter with one at HKL; it was a long and detail process.

RPK has been threading on very dangerous grounds, putting his reputation (as well as bloggers) to rock bottom after his “fiasco” in the statutory declarations, video confession and now this; he interpreted the medical notes as if he was there well versed in sodomy examination. Going through some of his articles in Malaysia To-day, he appears so desperate, vindictive, vulgar, uncanny in twisting facts and realities, very much like the character of ‘the Joker” in the Batman latest movie; he really sucks.

Let us be patient and let the Police do their job. Do not press them; in fact the protraction of the police investigation (due to not leaving any stones uncovered), has already demonstrated that DSAI has not changed a wee bit as well as the changing colours of those who believe or don’t believe that the sodomy could have taken place.

Certain important people, because of their vested interest (not national interest) are impatient and have already “pre-ejaculated” before reaching the climax (completion of police investigation). They desperately sought using the American way of justice – trial by media just based on a GP medical notes making these so called political intellectuals look so damn stupid; Ambiga, LKS, Kapal Singh, the Man himself and his wife as well as a host of his ardent (PKR) worshippers including RPK. Of course there are the representatives of the Dajjal (US administration and UN bodies like the IMF and World Bank) just smiling, waiting for the opportunity to pounce again. Such a pity for some of these people, telling the Ministers and others to refrain from making “prejudice” statements so as to let the police do their job while boasting about respecting the rule of law but they themselves “pre-ejaculate” as they shit at the fan in wanting to justify a people’s court.

An interesting development was the disclosure that DSAI and Dr Osman Hamid are known to each other since RISEAP (Regional Islamic Da'wah Council of South East Asia and the Pacific (RISEAP) days. Is this the link to the release of the Pusrawi medical notes made public and fabricated by RPK for his hearsay ecstasies to save his boss who has been “condemn” never to become PM of this country?

If Dr Osman is found guilty of professional misconduct in releasing the said medical note, he should be eventually sent back to Burma. It reminded me of my early days in the bank when once I was very sick and went to see a doctor under the bank’s panel which was a few doors away from the office. Upon examination after hearing my complaints, the doctor gave me some medicine. I asked for a day off and instead of being compassionate and understanding, the doctor, a GP locum from India, scolded me and refused to give me a medical leave. I went back to office and excuse myself without the MC. That night it was hell for me, my body was burning hot and red spots appeared all over my body; I was screaming in pain as though death was approaching. The next morning, I went to see my family doctor and he requested that I go to a specialist hospital. So I did and was diagnosed and admitted for measles. I was then in my early 30’s. I wrote a nasty letter to the clinic and soon the principal doctor called me up at home apologising. Soon thereafter the locum doctor called up and asked for forgiveness otherwise he would be sacked. I didn’t give a damned. Later I was told by my office that he was quite a drinker.

DSAI must be panting, having run around some parts of the country to defend himself against the charge by Saiful. It’s a pity but then DSAI took upon himself in denying the integrity of the local institutions while not cooperating in the police investigations. The Rakyat is able to judge for themselves every of DSAI’s actions and commentaries on his constant denials. DSAI also must be aware that his time is almost up and that the Police and the AG’s office must be ready to come out with the charges and arrest him soon enough.

In the previous case, evidence was clear the derogatory sexual act was his way of life but insufficient to charge him on technical grounds. Should the Police subsequently precede to an arrest the Man for a new sodomy charge, I am sure there would be a mob protecting him. What if the Man doesn’t want to give himself up to be arrested? For sure, the Man wants to make a small issue big in attracting much public including foreign media attention crying wolf as usual, will our men in blue be allowed do the job in balaclavas or should we call in the Army with their armoured personnel carriers, tanks and machine gun to do a quick and clean sweep? A new charge on a sin so cursed in our Quran doesn’t necessitate giving the Man the respect he deserves!

RISK MANAGEMENT: DON’T DISSOLVE PAS AND UMNO; IT”S HERESY!!!!

2008-07-27T20:27:00.000-07:00

1. PAS and UMNO, two prominent Malay Muslim parties with some minor difference in acumen, should NOT be dissolved to be eventually merged into one new party.

2. Although an ardent supporter of UMNO/ BN, I always have high respect for PAS as an opposition party; PAS serves to check on UMNO in respect of the Malay race and Islam. Inversely UMNO could play a similar role. This is simply a risk management already in place for the UMMAH. We will loose the check and balance if the merger is effected.

We are seeing today how a weak and incompetent leader, not wanted by the masses, is playing money politics, divide and rule, nepotism and cronyism, political corruption and falsehood to stay in power. If this destructive root is not decimated soon, the UMMAH will be continually weakened.

The thought of a merger between PAS and UMNO is like heresy to me; a potentially much larger danger lurks in the long term. It is happening in UMNO and it could also happen under a merged entity. The existing external system of check and balance (of two seperate parties) is crucial to safeguard the interest of the UMMAH.

3. In safeguarding race and religion, the form should not take precedence over substance; although the party provides a collective means to achieve certain objectives. In Islam as our way of life, we are each directly responsible for our individual deeds and sins to be judged eternally in the Hereafter; no one, nobody or party intercedes on behalf for our sins. In this temporary abode called Malaysia, each of us has our duties and responsibilities to our religion, our UMMAH and non-Muslims.

4. In the event of threats to our race and believes, as Malays and as Muslims, we must collectively and individually come to the defence. In this era of the Dajjal (as the world system under direct and indirect hegemony of the US and UN), the world order has become upside down, with full of deceit, lies, fabrication, chaos, lust for worldly gains and desires/ pleasures (unlimited freedom) etc which we sometimes forget, tricked and slipped due to the thin thread separating falsehood and truth.

Thus, let us keep focus on the present main threats to our UMMAH and righteously we must take on:
· PM – he is directly responsible for much of the problems facing the unity of the UMMAH. He has, as his endeavours liberal and democratic reforms which will result in much damage to our race and religion, especially so if unchecked. As a first step towards peace and stability in our country, he has to go.

· DSAI – the protégé of the Dajjal. A sodomite cannot become a leader of the UMMAH. Allah forbids! DSAI has created much chaos in this beloved country with his deceits.

· The DAP, the chauvinist party promoting Malaysian Malaysia with its dire ambitions to create a new DNA based on the principles of the Dajjal- the human rights principles of the UN and US – everybody is equal without borders.

How can the UMMAH accept the DAP which welcomed the US and western powers unwavering support of DSAI. To the US and UN, sodomy re homosexuality is permitted as a “right of privacy” while we Muslims condemn the derogatory act. In Malaysia, the penalty is a maximum 20 years while Allah’s punishment is unforgivable and eternity; the Federal Court of Appeal has evidence that indeed DSAI has committed those acts while the DAP and their allies refused to acknowledge such evidence in their quest for worldly gains.

· The Bar Council and the other human rights activists, some of them Muslims are like their Dajjal protégé being visiting professors to US universities, are adamant to change Malaysia’s rule of law.

· Last but not least, the representatives of the US and UN bodies with the influential foreign press media.

UMNO and PAS are duty bound to collaborate in confronting the many challenges and threats facing the race and religion of the Malays. Keep focus in taking PM and DSAI out of the Malaysian political equation and not be carried away with the unbeneficial talks regarding a merger.

THE WORD ALLAH PART 8 – ENTERS MAJLIS AGAMA ISLAM MELAKA

2008-07-26T08:40:00.000-07:00

It has been reported in the newspapers (Utusan Malaysia 24 July 2004) that on 23 July 2008 that Majlis Agama Islam Melaka (MAIM) has put in its application to intervene in this case. MAIM becomes the 7th Islamic religious council to join in the fray.

MAIM’s application was filed in by its solicitors, Messrs Tetuan Adil & Co. supported by an affidavit by its Secretary.

LANJUTKAN PERBINCANGAN UMNO-PAS TANPA PM.

2008-07-26T08:36:00.000-07:00

1. Politik perkauman (racial based politics) yang dipraktikkan di Negara selama ini telah berjaya membawa Negara ke kemuncak kemewahan dalam suasana aman dan sejahtera. UMNO dengan Ketuanan Melayu telah berjaya membimbing kerajaan di bawah Barisan Nasional di mana parti-parti utamanya diwakili kaum-kaum mereka sendiri di dalam satu perkongsian kuasa yang berlandaskan undang-undang yang sudah diterima (accepted rule of law) dan berasaskan penerimaan Kontrak Sosial yang sedia ada.

2. Olih kerana “kebijaksanaan” PM, melalui banyak protest vote terhadap PM, BN telah kehilangan kuasa di mana 5 negeri dan WPKL telah jatuh ke tangan pembangkang dan majoriti di parlimen kurang daripada 2/3. Justeru di negeri-negeri di bawah pentadbiran Pakatan Rakyat, DAP dengan slogan “Malaysian Malaysia” dan PKR dengan “Kedaulatan Rakyat” mencabar hak-hak istimewa Melayu di bawah Dasar Ekonomi Baru dan kebebasan ugama lain juga diutamakan. Pihak PKR dan DAP juga disokong oleh mereka yang menyokong prinsip-prinsip hak asasi manusia yang kononnya mengikut landasan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (yang mengikut telunjuk Amerika Syarikat dan kuasa-kuasa barat) seperti Majlis Peguam Malaysia dan juga mereka yang berfahaman sosialis yang radikal. Kerana kelemahan pentadbiran PM, keadaan politik, sosial dan ekonomi Negara amat tidak stabil, tonggang terbalik sehingga pelabur asing pun lari daripada Malaysia. Nota: pelabur asing melabur di Malaysia selama ini kerana politiknya yang stabil.

3. Sekiranya PAS dan UMNO dapat berkerjasama di negeri-negeri di bawah Pakatan Rakyat dalam isu-isu yang berkenaan, ia merupakan seperti keadaan politik dipulih sedia ada sebelum GE12 dimana Ketuanan Melayu diutamakan dan pada hakikatnya politik perkauman kembali berkauasa. Olih yang demikian, tiada sebab rakyat bukan Melayu atau penganut bukan Islam harus takut atau was-was dengan perpaduan Melayu dan Islam yang sedang dibicarakan antara UMNO dan PAS. Yang utama, keamanan dan kestabilan politik akan pulih kembali dan ekonomi sedia diperkukuhkan.

4. Tapi ada masaalah besar – PM tidak sepatutnya mengetuai pihak UMNO di dalam perbincangan tersebut kerana beliau berkepentingan; perkara ini tidak perlu kalau tidak kerana kesilapan dan kelemahan kepimpinan beliau yang amat ketara. PM (dan anak menantunya) tidak harus masuk campur dan beri laluan kepada pemimpin-pemimpin lain untuk mengendali bagi pihak UMNO; muzakarah ini juga bukan daripada ilham PM. Ikutlah contoh PAS di mana Pengerusinya Nik Aziz tidak termasuk bersama di dalam perbincangan tersebut. Juga sekiranya PM terus berkuasa, menafaat daripada kerjasama ini akn kurang berkesan.

THE CASE AGAINST FOREIGN INTERFERENCES IN DSAI”S SODOMY INVESTIGATIONS.

2008-07-25T07:22:00.000-07:00

Please do not expect foreign interference in supporting DSAI to listen to our local view, we can shout and scream like in Hell Boy 2 but these foreign buggers would never listen. Even if anyone is able to produce an original video with pictures and sounds showing DSAI buggering, they won’t care a shit for the following reasons:

1 DSAI is their stooge and they have invested heavily on him to do their dirty work vis- a-vis to spread their propaganda and falsehood to the Muslim world in the name of greater freedom and liberty. He has been groomed to be the likes of the Kemal Ataturk, to bring secularism etc in decaying Islamic revivalism worldwide. This is his lead role as Chairman of the Foundation of the Future and in association with the US administration – promoting liberal Islam?

2 Since 1994 the United Nations Human Rights Committee has also ruled that such laws violated the right to privacy guaranteed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Most international human rights organizations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, condemn laws that make homosexual relations between consenting adults a crime.

Thus international human rights groups can expect their local affiliates and associates to fully support against the rule of law in Malaysia which stipulates a maximum 20 year sentence on sodomy. Likewise the organisations linked to the UN and US like the World Bank and the IMF which have also in their agenda to barbarically rape our nation’s wealth.\.

So the clear link of the Bar Council in this matter and the human rights vocalism from the Opposition parties as well as certain NGOs in the country. Have we heard the Opposition and such local human rights groups commenting adversely on such interference? They seem to have almost forgotten about Allah’s decrees, commandments, warnings and punishment on sodomy/ homosexuality as told in the Qur’an in the story of Prophet Lot. God forgive me but it is apparent these people have SOLD THEIR SOULS TO THE DEVIL for worldly gains and falsehood and yet they refuse to deny or even sense it;
.

3 On June 26, 2003, the US Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision struck down the Texas same-sex sodomy law, ruling that this private sexual conduct is protected by the liberty rights implicit in the due process clause of the United States Constitution. (See Lawrence v. Texas.). Thus the US’ rule of law and ours are different and the US always believes that theirs is superior to Allah’s and don’t give a damn about ours; their despicable action speaks louder than words.

Such disgusting firm support from Paul Martin, ex-World Bank chief James Wolfensohn, and Michel Camdessus, the former head of the International Monetary Fund are only but expected. Similarly US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice when she clearly poked in her ugly nose in rejecting and claiming that DSAI’s sodomy case is not an internal affair of our beloved country Malaysia – a crime being investigated under Malaysian jurisdiction by a Malaysian citizen; is this not an irrational and unprejudiced statement or treachery of the Malaysian Opposition for not being disquiet?

4 And what of foreign supposedly renowned Muslim scholars who have come forth supporting DSAI? What’s so big special about them when there are those among them who might not be aware of the real/ full story or under the payroll of the US State Department or even practicing liberalism rejected by fundamentalist Islam re Kemal Ataturk style as in Turkey where sodomy has been legal for years and where in Istambul thrives a small but active society of homosexuals.

We have to be steadfast and patient for Patience is half of Faith and the Truth will definitely prevail while we let the Malaysian Police proceed with their investigation; we must continue voicing and rejecting these alien interferences.

The more the foreign buggers interfere, the more the Rakyat especially the Muslims and true Malaysians will reject them and DSAI’s predicament will be buggered up and compromised. Such precedence can be seen when the Americans and their associates have and are still interfering in the affairs of the locals and the locals rejected them re Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, other middle east counties and many other countries say in the war on terror, the traitorous invasion of innocent Iraq and Afghanistan etc.

Those who think Allah stays up afar in Heaven and has abandon mankind while these transgressors and disbelievers do sin and mischief in this world will be up for a big devastative and humiliating surprise, Insha’allah.

HAVE WE CONVINIENTLY FORGOTTEN ALLAH’S WARNING, DECREE AND COMMANDMENT IN THE STORY OF LOT?

2008-07-23T08:04:00.000-07:00

I sometimes wonder with amazement - DSAI’s sodomy investigation seemed to have been treated lightly while the Opposition members could still regard him as a PM-in-waiting irrespective of the decision of that Federal Court of Appeal in 2004 were had been convinced, from evidence presented, that he was involved in homosexual actives.

It then bothers me that the wife of PKR’s right hand man had been proven sexual relations with DSAI via DNA evidence. It further bothers me that Azmin Ali and DSAI’s wife as head of the opposition coalition, the Pakatan Rakyat, should be aware of DSAI acute repugnant sexual behaviour and yet they both robustly support DSAI’s political ambitions to lead our Muslim nation. Then there are some supposedly staunch Muslims amongst the Opposition and members of the public who accuse the Government of political conspiracy, they seemed to care little about his already established sexual background, rather they would insist on eye witness proof of such wrong doing or a verdict from a criminal court.

While there could be several reasons for such support for DSAI against his sodomy investigation notably under the pretext of the human rights’ slogan of “rights to privacy”. I had to convince myself of my conservatism with regard to sodomy I have been upholding; as I remember I was taught never use the “back hole” way, otherwise Allah never be forgive me. I took time and look out for published articles by reputable Muslim scholars on what Allah has prescribed regarding the sin called sodomy re homosexuality.

Among my books, I found one on “Stories of the Prophets” by Imam Imaduddin Abul-Fida Ismail Ibn Kathir Ad-Damishqi 700-774 H, published by Darussalam, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and Rendered by Rashad Ahmad Azami.

In sharing a reminder to my Muslim brothers and sisters on the sin called sodomy and homosexuality, I set out extracts from the said book which gives a very clear insight

1. Chapter 7 – The Story of LOT (PBUH)

Prophet Lot was the nephew of the Prophet Abraham (PBUH),

Lot went to the city of Sodom after Abraham had asked him to do so. It was the main city of the region with suburbs and satellite villages. Its people were the most immoral and insolent nature. They practised homosexuality first ever in human history.

Lot called them to heed Allah’s Command and to worship Him Alone and forbade them from this unnatural practice and abhorring act. But they ignored and rejected Lot’s appeal and continued in their erroneous indecency. As a result, Allah destroyed them by a severe punishment.

Allah says in Surat Al-A’raf:
“And (We sent) Lot, when he said to his people: ‘Do you commit such indecency as never any being in all the world has committed before you? You indeed approach men lustfully instead of women; indeed you are a people who are transgressors.’ And the only answer his people gave was they said ‘Expel them out of your town; surely they are a people who want to be pure’. So We rescued him and his family, except his wife, she was one of those who were destroyed. And We rained upon them a rain, then behold how was the end of the sinners” (7:80-84)

He also says in Surat Hud:
“Our angels came to Abraham with glad tidings. They said: ‘Peace’. He said ‘Peace’ and soon he brought a roasted calf. When he saw their hands not extending towards the meal, he deemed it strange and felt afraid of them. They said: ‘Fear not! We have been sent to the people of Lot’. And his wife was standing by and she laughed, then we gave her glad tidings of Isaac, and from him of Jacob. She said: ‘What wonder! How shall I bear a child now that I am an old woman and my husband is an old man? That would indeed be an unusual thing. (11:69-72)

“They said: ‘Do you wonder at Allah’s Decree? The Mercy of Allah and His blessings be upon you O family of Abraham!’ Surely He is Worthy of all praise and Full of all glory. So when the fear had passed from the mind of Abraham, and glad tidings came to him, he began to plead with Us for the people of Lot, Surely, Abraham was forbearing, compassionate, penitent. ‘O Abraham! Relinquish this, the Decree of your Lord has gone forth, and surely, there is coming a chastisement upon them which cannot be turned back;” (11.73-76)

“And when Our angels came to Lot, he was aggrieved and felt unable to protect them, and he said: ‘This is a distressful day.’ And his people came to him, rushing towards them, and they were accustomed to shameful deeds. He said: ‘O my people! Here are my daughters; they are purer for you (if you marry them). So fear Allah and do not disgrace me about my guests. Is there not a single man among you right minded?’ They said: We know that we have no desire towards your daughters, and you know what we desire.’ He said: ‘Would that I had the power to set you right, or I could find some strong support for refuge’.” (11:77-80)

“The angels said: ‘O Lot! We are messengers of your Lord; by no means shall they reach you. So depart from here with your family, late in the night and let not anyone of you turn around, except your wife, surely, what befalls them will befall her. Morning is their appointed time (for their destruction), is not the morning almost nigh?!’ When Our Command came to pass, We turned the habitation upside down, and rained upon them brimstones, hard as baked clay, layer on layer. Each one assigned from your Lord, and never from evildoers.”

And Allah said in Surat Al-Hijr:
“And inform them about the guests of Abraham, when they entered before him and said: Peace’. He said: We feel afraid of you.’ They said: Fear not, we give you glad tidings of a knowledgeable son.’ He said: ‘Do you give me glad tidings after my old age? What glad tidings is this?’ They said: ‘we gave you glad tidings in truth, so do not be among those who despair.’ He said: ‘And who despairs of the Mercy of His Lord except those who have gone astray?’ Abraham said: ‘What concern has brought you here, O you messengers?’ They said: ‘We are sent to a sinful people, except the followers of Lot, we shall certainly save them all. Except his wife, it has been decreed that she shall be of those who stay behind’.”

“And when the messengers came to the followers of Lot, he said: ‘You are a people not known to me!’ They said: ‘We have come to accomplish that which they dispute. And we have come to you with the Truth, and most certainly we speak truly. So depart with your family in the late hours of the night, and you follow behind them, and let not anyone look back, and go to where you are commanded.’ And We decreed him this command that the last remnant of those should be destroyed in the morning.” (15:61-66)

“And the people of the city came in joy. Lot said: ‘These are my guests, do not disgrace me. And fear Allah, and do not put me to shame.’ They said: ‘Have we not forbidden you to plead for the people?’ He said: ‘There are my daughters (to marry), if you are intent.’ By your life (O ProphetI! They wander blindly I their intoxication. And the thunderous Cry seized them at sunrise, and We turned it upside down, and rained upon them brimstones of baked clay. Surely, in this are signs for those who reflect upon events. And the city is right on a high-road. And surely there is a sign in this for those who believe.” (15:67-77)

And it is said in Surat Ash-Shu’ara:

“The people of Lot disbelieved the Messengers, when their brother Lot said to them: ‘Will you fear Allah? I am for you a faithful Messenger. So fear Allah and obey me. And I do not ask you any reward for it, surely my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds. Of all the creatures in the world, do you approach males? And leave those whom Allah has created for you as your mates? But you are a transgressing people.’ They said: ‘O Lot! If you do not desist, you shall surely be expelled.’ He said: I surely detest what you do’.” (26.160-168)

“My Lord! Rescue me and my family from what they are doing.’ So We rescued him and his family all together, except an old woman who was among those who stayed behind. Then We destroyed the others. And we rained upon them a rain, and evil was the rain of those were warned. Surely, there is a sign in this, but most of them are not believers. Indeed, your Lord is the All-Mighty, the All Merciful.” (26:169-175)

The story in Surat An-Naml is in these words:
“And Lot when he said to his people: Do you commit abomination while you are aware? Do you approach men rather than women? But you are a most ignorant people.’ The only answer his people gave was: ‘Expel the family of Lot from your town; they are people clean and pure!’ So we rescued him and his family, except his wife, We ordained that she should be of those who stayed behind. And we rained down on them a rain, and evil indeed was the rain of those who were warned.” (27:54-58)

The Qur’an talks about his people further in Surat Al-‘Ankbut:
“And Lot when he sad to his people: ‘Indeed, you commit such abomination as none have ever committed before of the worlds, And you approach males, and cut off the highway, and you practise indecency even in your assemblies.’ But the answer of his people was: Bring upon us the chastisement of God, if you are truthful!’ He said: ‘My Lord! Help me against these corrupters.’ And when Our messengers came to Abraham with glad tidings, they said: ‘We are to destroy the people of this town, sure, they are evildoers’.” (29:28-31)

“He said ‘But Lot is therein.’ They said: ‘We are well aware of who is there, we shall save him and his family, she shall be of those who stay behind.’ And when Our messengers came to Lot, he was aggrieved and felt powerless on their behalf, but they said: ‘Do not fear nor grieve, we shall save you and your family, except your wife, she shall be of those who shall stay behind. We shall bring down upon the people in this town torment from the sky for the wickedness.’ And we have left a clear sign of it for people who possess understanding.” (29:32-35)

And it said in Surat As-Saffat:

‘And Lot was also one of the Messengers, when we rescued him and his family all together except an old woman who was among those left behind. Then We destroyed the others. And indeed you pass by the day, and by night, will you not understand?!” (37:133-138)

In Surat Adh-Dhariyat, the Qur’an says about them:
“He said: ‘On what matter have you been sent? They said: ‘We have been sent to a sinning people. So We can send down upon them stones of clay, marked by your Lord for the wanton.’ Then we evacuated the believers whom were therein, but We not therein any but one Muslim household. And We left therein a sign for those who fear a painful chastisement.” (51:31-37)

And lastly, it is said in Surat Al-Qamar
“The people of Lot rejected the warning. Surely, We sent against them a storm of stones, except the family of Lot, We saved them at early dawn, as a blessing from Us. Thus do We reward those who are thankful. And he warned them of Our punishment, but they disputed the warnings. And they even sought to make proper advances towards his guests, but We blinded their eyes. So taste My punishment and My warnings. And indeed, an abiding chastisement seized them by the morning. So taste My punishment and My warnings! And We have indeed made the Qur’an easy to understand. Is there any who will receive admonition?!” (54: 33-46)

2. The Punishment
Some scholars hold the opinion that homosexual should be stoned, whether he was married or not. This is also the opinion of Iman Shafi’i and others.

They also supported their opinion with the Hadith narrated by Imam Ahmad from Ibn’ Abbas that the Prophet (PHUH) said:

“WHOEVER YOU FIND COMMITTING THE ACT OF THE PEOPLE OF LOT, THEN YOU SHOULD KILL THEM BOTH, THE ONE WHO DID IT AND THE ONE WITH WHOM HE DID IT (BALIGH Al-MARDAM).

The opinion of Abu Hanafiah is that whoever practiced it, should be thrown from top of a hill, and then to be stoned, as Allah said “And never far from the evildoers.’ (11:83).

3. Malaysia a free and liberal Society
Malaysia has indeed advanced and developed well among the Muslim countries. The bulk of its population are considered religiously conservative, however the advance of technology in particular the media and internet accessibility threatens it. The latest movies and TV programmes, especially those sourced from Hollywood displays much lewdness and vulgarity. The internet gives easy access to phonographic materials and triple X movies which blatantly promotes anal sex.

Most international human rights organizations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty also ruled that such laws against homosexuality/ sodomy violated the right to privacy guaranteed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights International, condemn laws that make homosexual relations between consenting adults a crime. In US, the world’s greatest proponent of freedom and liberty rules that private sexual conduct is protected by the liberty rights implicit in the due process clause of the United States Constitution. The laws in most US states relating to homosexuality are no longer enforced, or were very selectively enforced.

Thus while the influence of this international “right to privacy” permeates into our political and social structure, some of local population forget while others capitalizes for worldly gains in the DSAI sodomy issue, parroting the west.

To me, the issue of sodomy re homosexuality should never be taken lightly lest we forget the story of Lot and Allah’s many warning, decrees and commandments to us. So unforgivable is this sin that no one practising such derogatory sexual act can ever be a leader of a Muslim nation; the “right of privacy” has no relevance or the outcome of this second case to convict since DSAI has already been proven to have practiced sodomy / homosexual activities both overseas and locally. DSAI can say this is not 1998 but Allah has spoken so clearly in the numerous Surahs and Allah knows best.

WHAT WE OUGHT TO KNOW ABOUT DSAI’S DNA

2008-07-22T02:26:00.000-07:00

To many of the public, it would be a standard procedure for all new cases of this nature, what’s the big huh hah by DSAI in not giving his DNA. DSAI submission to the Police procedure would facilitate the conclusion of the Police investigation.

1. My Perception
My perception is that the DNA of the earlier sodomy case, although could be still available and valid, was for that specific case and therefore treated as a separate issue. To use the old sample would provide DSAI with further excuse to link the Police Department of a conspiracy and knowing DSAI, he just want that to illustrate a political conspiracy.

2. Expert’s Validity of DNA
Perhaps certain people have been greatly influenced by the CSI series in making their judgment in supporting that a new DNA sample is not required. According to a Dr Syahril Abullah, a medical scientist trained in molecular medicine (The Sun, pg 4 Tuesday 22 July 2008), there are procedures whereby the DNA can be preserved indefinitely. He also gave some possible reasons why a new specimen is required, But a vital procedure is a procedure and DSAI can exempt himself being a person above the law.

Earlier, PM made a mistake about the validity of the age of the earlier DNA, the press should correct him. PM is used to flip flopping because he doesn’t know the facts, so what’s the big deal in reporting PM’s mistake, otherwise the issue would be continually misled.

3. Possible Contribution of US and other foreign interference
Shouldn’t the US, Japan or other interested foreign parties who have been showing concern about DSAI’s welfare request DSAI to go for a DNA test in proving his innocence? Perhaps the US and the others doesn’t bother about our rule of law, there’s too much at stake on their protégé. But if the US does not bother about our rule of law, why should we be with theirs. Thus there’s justification to refute the interferences of these foreign parties.

4. Making Conditional Demands
Making conditional demands before undertaking a DNA test is merely protracting the issue as well as to discredit the Police force, again to link the new sodomy investigation with the old among. The demands include how he, with a back problem, could have sodomised a healthy 23-year-old youth, where the alleged sodomy took place and who were the witnesses. Thus, he wants a copy of the Police Report on the sodomy allegation against him. Some human rights group have come out demanding the Police to disclose the contents of the said Police Report irrespective the Police have provided the regulations justifying the non-release of the Police report before a charge is made.

5. Police Next Move
The Police is said to be considering getting a court order to procure the DNA test but may be restricted to do so due to a matter of law. Perhaps it’s best that the PDRM secure competent legal advice or even the services of specialised psychiatrists in ensuring that every angle of risk is mitigated before making the next strategic move.

6. The Victim’s Family’s Request
The Family of the victim has come forward requesting that DSAI provide his DNA to enable the Police to complete the investigation. The young victim’s family is just a normal Malaysian family unlike that of the high profile of DSAI. The question arises again - is DSAI above the law because he is the PM in waiting on the issue of his DNA?

7. Is DSAI a sodomite?
If a simple public citizen like me could suspect his false intentions in providing his DNA, what about the majority? Thus DSAI is beginning to slip and the more he drags the issue of not taking the DNA test, the guiltier or lost of credibility he is being perceived.

Many tend to believe that DSAI was released from jail of sodomy charges because he was found not guilty.

Lets look at the essence of judgement of the Federal Court.
The nine year conviction by High Court Judge Ariffin Jaka on 8 August 2000 was over turned by a three man Federal Court panel on 2 September 2004.

The 3 judges unanimous agreed on the following

"Even though reading the appeal record, we find EVIDENCE TO CONFIRM that the appellants (Anwar dan Sukma) were involved in homosexual activities and we are more inclined to believe that the alleged incident at Tivoli Villa did happen sometime, this court, as a court of law, may only convict the appellants if the prosecution has successfully proved that the alleged offences as stated in the charge, beyond reasonable doubt".

However, the majority decision reached at:
“The testimonies of one Dr. Mohd Fadzil and one Tun Haniff and the conduct of the first Appellant (ie Anwar) confirmed the appellants’ involvement in homosexual activities. However such evidence did not corroborate Azizan’s story that the appellants sodomised him on the date, time and place specified in the charge.”
Additionally, the majority also held:
“even though reading the appeal record, we find evidence to confirm that the appellants were involved in homosexual activities and we are more inclined to believe that the alleged incident at Tivoli Villa did happen, sometime, this court, as a court of law, may only convict the appellants if the prosecution has successfully proved that the alleged offences as stated in the charges, beyond reasonable doubt.”

THUS THE FEDERAL COURT HAS DETERMINED THAT DSAI and SUKMA WERE INVOLVED IN HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVITIES. AS SUCH, DSAI IS CAPABLE OF REPEATING THE DEROGATORY ACT RE HE HAS BEEN DETERMINED BY THE FEDERAL COURT TO BE A SODOMITE.

8. DNA EVIDENCE

The details of the DNA in Sodomy Part 1 was brought to the court and deliberated and reported in the national newspapers on the last day of 1998, perhaps most of us were enjoying our new year that the report did not attract our attention.

Some points are extracted from the press report is as set out below.

Based on DNA tests on the famous mattress, the semen found belonged to DSAI and Shamsidar Taharin, wife of the Mohd Azmin Ali and another male.
A number of the semen was the result of sexual activities between DSAI and the wife of Mohd Azmin Ali.

I do not want to dwell further on the said DNA reporting but it does surprises me that the wife of PKR’s present right hand man was proven to have sexual relations with DSAI. I wonder if this was among the reason at one point in time that Datuk Wan Azizah, wife of DSAI, wanted to proceed against her husband at the Shariah Court.

I also wonder whether Datin Wan Azizah and Mohd Azmin Ali truly believe that DSAI is not highly extra sexed as perceived by some and therefore could possibly commit the sexual crime of sodomising the young Saiful as old habits die hard.

WHEN UMNO VOTES FOR A WEAK LEADERSHIP TO CONTINUE

2008-07-21T12:50:00.000-07:00

It is generally accepted that the present leadership is extremely weak but yet component parties and members are apparently supporting its continuance even for another two years.

There could be many reasons for such support but let me be naïve and assess the potential consequences in concluding some of the possible reasons:

A weak Top means the Bottom is able to capitalise by demanding more and the Top has to give in and or comply with their wished to stay in power. Thus
Sabah and Sarawak managed to secure from additional goodies worth RM billions for their development programmes and certain political positions etc from PM in justification for the reward for their par excellent victory during the GE 12 which resulted in their impressive contribution of elected representatives in BN and parliament.

It would therefore be in the best interest of these parties that the weakling PM remains in office so that they rightly can demand more. A strong leadership may not necessary be good nor serve their interest.

On the other side, those weak component parties will also demand more, not necessary in money value but in terms of moral/ social justification, to lend support to their recovery or continue existence. Thus these weak parties become vocal on the same issues played out by a strengthened Opposition. Thus the review of the existing Social Contract (NEP, religion, role of Sultans etc), the rule of law and greater human rights, democratic freedom and social and religious tolerance becomes vocal and tolerated creating social and political instability.

The weak leadership is a predicament trying to appease these demands, PM mulls in sacrificing the accepted and established policies of BN irrespective if the rights and values of the dominant party, UMNO, are tempered with, thus more instability.

The Top becomes weaker (as to grassroots support) while the power becomes polarised with the powerful warlords.

In sustaining decentralised control, the weak leadership rampantly practices cronyism, nepotism and money politics to the dismay of the masses.

Focus on critical and strategic issues becomes clouded as in the Kingdom of the Blind, the one eyed is king. The Blind Spot becomes apparent as the focus is to sustain their bellies and personal self interest. Thus dangerous flip flop policies are allowed to prevail; leading the country to nowhere except disasters, characteristics of inconsistent and directionless management.

The country heads for the worst while the Rakyat suffers and becomes repugnant of UMNO and its leadership.

In the midst of chaotic management, the situation is capitalised by opportunists and carpet beggars; the inexperience and immature SIL manages the situation for his father-in-law. Thus incestuous and blatant misuse of power – the consequences of poor governance.

DSAI - Many of us know DSAI for what he is, {a great liar yet} a shrewd politician making maximum use of the media to have a trial by media i.e the American way as the best avenue to neutralise the sodomy investigation – a political conspiracy to link to his first sodomy case rather than a alleged simple crime. But yet he is still able to attract big crowds to hear his speeches even from the more supposedly staunch Islamic (PAS) supporters.

Perhaps DSAI is having his way at the moment because
The MSM has quite a while not perceived as been reporting news reflecting the realities on the ground say the effects of the massive oil price hike on the sentiments of the Rakyat.

For example, it’s not just an issue of understanding the difficult decisions by the Government, there is much, much more reasons and effects which the MSM are not carrying due to Kali & SIL prerogatives – never paint Flip Flop PM in any bad light. Thus the MSM already has a big credibility gap easily manipulated by DSAI and the Opposition parties.

The credibility gap becomes worst when the weaklings, PM and SIL, insist to remain in power. The Rakyat at almost every corner of the country, wants PM and SIL out pronto and yet UMNO members are asked to agree to the two-year transitional hand over to Najib.

Reporting credible news to refute the half truths and lies perpetuated by DSAI and the opposition blogs could have more effective if not because of 1 and 2.

I am surprised the Government to-date seems incompetent as DSAI continues treating himself as “untouchable” while clamouring that everybody from the Police, AG Office, General Hospital, the Judiciary System etc cannot be trusted because of a simple DNA issue. And like Rasputin, he wants now to take over the Government, a repeat of his Reformasi days.

Thus while the authorities continuing to put DSAI in a corner for his sodomy 2 re the DNA, the core source of the problem has to be resolved– PM and SIL is not wanted by the Rakyat.

If UMNO is to survive and continue having the trust and confidence of the Rakyat, the grassroots need to kick out PM and SIL at the forthcoming PAU as a first step. As said earlier, the general perception is the Rakyat at almost every corner of the country knows how incompetent PM and SIL are; their selfish family interest comes foremost instead of the Rakyat or the party. The little that UMNO is doing in assuring their commitment to the social contract is adhered is insufficient.

No doubt no one knows for the next GE will be held in the next 41/2 year but for sure the present economic, social and political climate is most uncertain and unstable. The general expectation is that they will likely get worse, a scenario that the weak leadership is incompetent to handle. Thus a two year transition has no meaning except again to serve the selfish interest of PM and the 1st Family.

The PAU which is a settlement among the party members may discard the wishes of the Rakyat. But UMNO should take note - the perception at the moment still stands that BN and UMNO cannot remain in power if an election is held to-day; that is the general perception going round everywhere within the fraternity of the Silent Majority. That’s the reason perhaps DSAI believes he can topple the Government.

The Rakyat wants to see a new credible, committed and strong leadership in these uncertain times. The changing of the leadership is just the start of a long journey to stability and peace and tranquillity much destroyed by the foolish and irresponsible policies of PM and SIL.

Not listening to the wishes of the Rakyat/ silent majority via re-electing PM and SIL will portray that majority of the UMNO members are only interested to safeguard their bellies, quest for positions and corrupted with money politics. As a consequence, UMNO must be prepared to face a uncertain and hostile Silent Majority, sooner rather than later.

SODOMY: DSAI, THE AMBIGA, US AND TURKISH CONNECTIONS

2008-07-17T07:15:00.000-07:00

When I went through a brief search on the internet on the issue of contemporary sodomy, I found that

In Turkey, sodomy has been legal for many years. #. This I presume must be the work of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk who brought westernization and secularisation into the Republic of Turkey after the fall of the Ottaman Empire in the aftermath od world war 1. So when DSAI went to seek shelter at the Turkish Embassy Kual Lumpur while buying time for foreign powers to come to his aid, he was sure the Turkish Embassy would accommodate him. Being a Muslim country, under the Turkish flag, he sought to receive the attention and support of certain Islamic organizations especially those receiving funding from his Chairmanship in the Foundation of the Future, an apparatus of the US State Department which the US contributed USD 30M.

“Most international human rights organizations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty also ruled that such laws violated the right to privacy guaranteed in the Universal Declaration of Human RightsInternational, condemn laws that make homosexual relations between consenting adults a crime. Since 1994 the United Nations Human Rights Committee has and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.”# This is where Ambiga and her kind come in, to promote human rights in Malaysia irrespective of Malaysia’s rule of law and the Social Contract and in this case sodomy is the most heinous and sexually derogatory act condemn under Islam.

3. “On June 26, 2003, the US Supreme Court in a 6-3 decision struck down the Texas same-sex sodomy law, ruling that this private sexual conduct is protected by the liberty rights implicit in the due process clause of the United States Constitution. (See Lawrence v. Texas.). Around the time of the 2003 Supreme Court decision, the laws in most US states were no longer enforced, or were very selectively enforced. The continued presence of these rarely enforced laws on the statute books, however, was often cited as justification for discrimination against gay men and lesbians.”3##. Our existing rule of law and that the US are so widely apart in respect of sodomy. In the US, its ‘god’ is its constitution but not so here in Malaysia. The US is intensively promoting its program of greater freedom and liberty world wide especially to the Muslim world after its apparent failure or limited success on the War on Terror and the branding of Muslims as terrorists.
It’s also good to find out how the US military looks at homosexual cases

4. Besides Sodomy Part 1 (the earlier sodomy case of DSAI) there’s another case where International human rights groups have strongly protested but to no avail. See http://www.sodomylaws.org/world/uzbekistan/uznews16.htm where Uzbek Journalist Pleads Guilty to Sodomy Charges
The above to me are the simple close linkage between DSAI, the US, Turkey and Ambiga (representative of human rights advocates in Malaysia). To all Malaysian Muslims, beware of the onslaught by the United States and its allies in coming to the rescue of their protégée accused of Sodomy. These countries, especially the US administration care not of our laws or the truth. I bet PM and SIL are shitting in their pants and I wonder if they (PM and SIL) will sell out our country’s honor.
I wish to reiterate that I am among those who are certain that DSAI is capable of repeating the heinous crime and thus my duty to warn my fellow Muslims in PAS or elsewhere to be aware of the monstrous destruction DSAI and his loyal human rights supporters can bring to this beloved country out of this despicable incident.

Legal status in modern Islamic nations (http://www.answers.com/topic/homosexuality-and-islam)
Homosexuality is a crime and forbidden in most of Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc. In other countries, this is not the case, Turkey being an example. Despite the laws, some Muslim nations are widely believed to have a thriving underground homosexual subculture. [citation needed]
Same-sex intercourse officially carries the death penalty in several Muslim nations: Saudi Arabia, Iran, Mauritania, Sudan, Somalia, and Yemen.[citation needed] It formerly carried the death penalty in Afghanistan under the Taliban. The legal situation in the United Arab Emirates is unclear. In many Muslim nations, such as Bahrain, Qatar, Algeria and the Maldives, homosexuality is punished with jail time, fines, or corporal punishment. In some Muslim-majority nations, such as Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, or Mali, same-sex intercourse is not specifically forbidden by law. In Egypt openly gay men have been prosecuted under general public morality laws. (See Cairo 52.) On the other hand, homosexuality, while not legal, is tolerated to some extent in Lebanon, and has been legal in Turkey for decades.
In Saudi Arabia, the maximum punishment for homosexuality is public execution, but the government will use other punishments—e.g., fines, jail time, and whipping—as alternatives, unless it feels that homosexuals are challenging state authority by engaging in LGBT social movements.[2] Iran is perhaps the nation to execute the largest number of its citizens for homosexuality. Since the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran, the Iranian government has executed more than 4,000 people charged with homosexual acts[citation needed]. In Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban homosexuality went from a capital crime to one that it punished with fines and prison sentence.
Most international human rights organizations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, condemn laws that make homosexual relations between consenting adults a crime. Since 1994 the United Nations Human Rights Committee has also ruled that such laws violated the right to privacy guaranteed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. However, most Muslim nations (except for Turkey, which has been ruled by secular law since 1923 and recently has modernized its laws in order to meet the requirements of entry to the European Union) insist that such laws are necessary to preserve Islamic morality and virtue. Of the nations with a majority of Muslim inhabitants, only Lebanon has an internal effort to legalize homosexuality.[3]

Islamic views on Sodomy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodomy)
The Qur'an makes a more explicit scriptural connection between homosexual aggression and Sodom. The city name ‘Sodom’ does not appear there, but the Sodomites are referred to as “the people of Lut (Lot).” Lot is the nephew of the Hebrew/Arabic patriarch Abraham and, in the Judaic Sodom stories, is head of the only family allowed by God to survive Sodom's destruction. In the Qur'an, he is also the divinely appointed national prophet to his people. Since their national name was unrecorded and “people of Lot” was the only available designation, the Islamic equivalent of ‘sodomy’ has become ‘liwat,’ which could be roughly translated as “lottishness” (see Homosexuality and Islam).
According to Islamic view, homosexuality is not a natural activity and it was initiated under the influence of Satan among the people who dwelled in Sodom and Gomorrah. In order that they should abandon this immorality, Allah had sent to them Lut as a Prophet. The Qur'an relates,
'We also (sent) Lut: he said to his people: "Do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you? For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds".' - Holy Quran 7:80-81
It is evident from this verse that the sin of the Sodomites was indeed homosexuality (specifically, amongst men) in the Islamic context.
In Islam sodomy (Anal sex) is forbidden whether done with a man or a woman.

THUMBS UP FOR BUKIT AMAN IN ARRESTING DSAI

2008-07-16T19:36:00.000-07:00

Reading from the local newspapers, I gave thumbs up to the Malaysian Police in arresting the wanted suspect by the name of DSAI.

The PDRM issued a statement explaining the steps taken to arrest DSAI away from his house and about an hour before expiration of the deadline for him to surrender himself to the Police.
i) Many people, family members, press and party supporters had already gathered around the vicinity of his home in anticipation of an arrest. Thus to avoid any outward incident, the arrest was made before DSAI could reach his home. Thus the objective of maintaining peace and harmony was achieved.
ii) After monitoring that the suspect had diverted his journey from his last destination to his house instead of directly to the IPK (Police HQ), the Police decided to take him on based on strong assumption that he was not coming to the Police station. The suspect had the previous day broken his promise to report to IPK and for him to break his promise again was indeed very real. The Police had to be firm in enforcing the law on this high profile case; DSAI is cannot be seen to be above the law.
iii) The Police confirmed that the arrest was made in accordance with its existing guidelines. Fortunately DSAI was accompanied by his lawyers who assured that DSAI was under police protection and was given all facilities including access to a lawyer and family members.

DSAI was arrested to give his statement and assist the Police in the current investigation in connection with the Police Report made by one Mohd. Saiful, a personnel aide to the wanted suspect. Mohd Saiful alleged that DSAI had sodomised him.

As expected, treating DSAI like an “untouchable”, immediately the Opposition made a big huh hah in Parliament, even seeing PM to assure his safety and threatening demonstrations. Opposition blogs and foreign press emphasised the arrest a political conspiracy rather than a local police investigation following a personal action.

The quick action by the Police is most commendable; it assures that the matter would not be dragged potentially creating further social unrest and political instability. Such quick and smooth action would also mitigate interested parties in capitalising and undermining the integrity of the Malaysian Police.

Thumbs up again to the Malaysian Police. I am sure the Police are aware that this high profile case is under the watch of many interested parties, both local and foreign, bent into looking at technicalities of the law rather than the truth of the matter. I am also confident that the Police and the AG office will ensure that justice will prevail. However, I have little confidence in PM and the SIL in handling this sensitive matter being the kind of unscrupulous and incompetent politicians they are.

Note: DSAI refused to take a DNA test, a standard police procedure in such investigation . I wonder why. Anyone else would comply with such standard procedures to prove one's innosance.

DSAI-SHABERY DEBATE: NOT THE MALAYSIAN STYLE

2008-07-16T10:01:00.000-07:00

My Take

1. Nothing significant in the outcome of the Debate that would contribute to help decision makers consider reducing high price of fuel. All the facts and history deliberated is common knowledge.

2. All the two Debaters did was just to trade political blows at each other. Who won? Depends on the perspectives one takes, some would say DSAI while others Shabery. Some would even say democracy was the winner.

3. As amongst the majority of consumers affected by the one massive fuel price hike and its overall consequential inflationary effects on the economy, I would stand with anyone who would disagree against the Government’s action irrespective of whatever the Government may put forward in its arguments. This is the expected psychological behaviour of the general public, thus DSAI had that special advantage in the Debate. His argument for a staggered price increase definitely made sense.

4. Two key points which DSAI brought out during the Debate worth mentioning are
· Due to the Government’s action, the country’s traditional competitiveness has been greatly eroded, the people is just beginning to feel the effects with less purchasing power as the economy increases its pace towards stagflation.
· DSAI’s last comment which many listeners did not pay heed: the country is expected to face a financial tsunami of magnanimous proportions in the next 2-3 months and DSAI is of the view that the present administration will not be able to handle it.

As someone who views the current administration as weak and indecisive as well as incompetent, I share the view or rather advocate that PM should go off immediately to be replaced by a new strong team with greater honesty, integrity and commitment to the Nation.

5. With the present political, social and economic scenarios fill with uncertainty and instability, I wondered why the Government agreed to proceed with the Debate – is it to show that the Government practices democracy or that democracy is well and alive in Malaysia?

I am happy with type of democracy prevailing in our beloved country all these years which had into consideration our rule of law that had its origins from the Social Contract. Our country is unique, structurally different from the US, Britain or elsewhere and so there’s little need to follow the US style of Debate.

The Debate thus served little purpose except to further contribute to the restlessness and rumblings on the ground when the focus should be on enhancing our economic performance in preparation of any eventuality of another economic crisis which could be worse than the 1997 Asian Financial Crises. All the pointers are there.

6. From another political perspective, the Debate provided DSAI the opportunity to enhance his image in the media. This guy is presently being accused for the second time of sodomy and the police investigation into such evil act is only just beginning. This guy’s modus operandi is well known; he will make use of whatever means including the use of demonstrations and foreign interference to cause havoc to achieve his means.

The recent police road blocks undertaken by the Government, rightly or wrongly, are associated with this one “godly” guy called DSAI, the defacto leader of the Opposition. To the Opposition, this guy can do no wrong and any action taken against him is a conspiracy; they look at all angles under the law for technicalities to ensure that this guy cannot be “touched”.

Thus the Debate only demonstrates the inconsistencies of the Government’s stand on this one guy. But this is expected from the character of the flip flop PM who is incompetent and consistently advised by a bunch of nincompoops.

V - REJECT POLITICAL CORRUPTION AT ITS BEST

2008-07-15T09:44:00.000-07:00

PM and the SIL despicable actions to galvanize public and UMNO support using government and UMNO facilities just before the start of the UMNO branch represents political corruption at its best and in violation as per the UMNO code of conduct

Extracts from Article 20 of UMNO’s constitution (as per my own English translation)

20.12 The Supreme Council is fully empowered by its rules and regulations in relation to the Code of Conduct inter-alia

- To thwart the misuse of power and money which objective is to garner votes or support
- Or to influence any contest on his/her personal behalf or other parties
- Or not to vote any person in any contest

20.9 The Punishments

a) Be given a warning
b) His/ her rights in the party be suspended
c) Disallowed from standing in any positions in the party or as a candidate at any state elections or public within the time period as stipulated by the Supreme Council
d) Dismissed from the Party
e) Imposed with whatever punishment deemed fit and consistent with the Constitution.

It is the accepted opinion that PM and SIL have seriously violated UMNO’s code of conduct re constitution; thus what kind of exemplary leaders are they?

PM’s insistence to continue the quota system in the nominations procedure is just another barrier sustained to block open competition and a venue which will facilitate the use of money politics.

Rightfully, any UMNO member and their leaders can question who they want in the leadership and for each of them to decide wisely on their free accord within the ambit of the UMNO’s code of conduct. Such rights have been deliberated profusely to enable members to vote without any political corruption, intimidation and/ or coercion. And that is what PM and SIL fear and want most - to rob that individual right in stark daylight at the detriment of UMNO and the country.

Aren’t we ashamed to have such hypocrite leaders in this country – never playing by the rules already set by the justification of their community, UMNO?

UMNO GRASSROOTS, BE UNITED AND VOTE NOT PM AND HIS MEN INCLUDING SIL AND REPLACE THEM WITH A NEW AND STRONG LEADERSHIP WITH INTEGRITY.

PLEASE DON’T WASTE THIS ONE GOLDERN OPPORTUNITY.

THE SILENT MAJORITY HOPES THAT UMNO GRASSROOTS WILL SAVE THE DAY AND COUNTRY.

SO STRIVE ON, UMNO GRASSROOTS, THE CLOCK CANNOT BE TURN BACK AND DO NOT BE AFRAID OF PM AND HIS GOONS. THE SILENT MAJORITY IS WITH YOU TO CHANGE THE LEADERSHIP OF THE COUNTRY.

IV - REJECT THE TRANSITIONAL SCOOP, A DECEPTION OF THE HIGHEST DEGREE

2008-07-15T09:43:00.000-07:00

Following PM’s quick visit to Penang, UMNO Penang came up in full support of PM and DPM as the contenders No.1 and No.2 posts for the forth coming general assembly. Selangor UMNO soon followed. (Subsequently certain other states and UMNO Youth came out in apparent full support for the transition plan). Then PM hastily arranged to announce his transitional plans when not all his dissidents were around while the branch meetings just around the corner. After that announcement, the MSM came out in force to give full support to the transitional place which would give him enough time to implements his dire reforms. Then the 150 NGO will come together at PICC to give their support to PM. Perhaps these NGO are only interested in getting the extra allocation under the mid term review.

Such has been the modus operandi of PM – a top to bottom instruction from the President to the state UNMO bodies, irrespective of any meaningful input or two-way dialogue with the grassroots. Unfortunately PM is not in touch with the wants of the grassroots, he is isolated by his close circles who fed him with only the falsified good news. He supposedly has a pain at his back that makes him doze off too often and that has been made him a mockery.

A formidable Najib-Muhyuddin and/ or other combinations to take over the weak leadership were already in the making, threatening PM’s political survival. With the strength and quantum of PM/ SIL grassroots support questionable, PM is left without any choice but to secure a pack with Najib under the pretext of secured transitional timeline in the best interest of stabilizing the political uncertainty in the country. He sensed that Najib, considered the best candidate among the current UMNO leaders, has the grassroots popularity to basically kick him out and thus this deception was created. PM’s other intent to disallow the challenging for the No. 1 and 2 posts were scraped. Thus, in the opinion of many, this scoop by PM is to deflect the strategies garnered by the akur umbi to reject PM as well as the SIL.

However public and UMNO grassroots response was predictable, many were too thick skinned to accept such show of support for the PM-Najib team. PM and SIL have been written off and considered incompetent and corrupt to handle the many challenges before us in these uncertain times. Many UMNO members and supporters are annoyed PM’s continued modus operandi.

Malaysian folks of all walks of life are able to see through PM and the SIL and the 1st Family for what they are; incompetent and corrupt. PM and SIL cannot be consistently be deceiving and lying hypocritically to the Rakyat anymore. PM’s asking the Rakyat understanding of the restructuring of the fuel subsidy while he dishes out certain kickbacks are but a farce.

Are these the kind of cheapskate and hollow politics of deception, manipulation and fabrication that the country wants under the so-called two year transition period for reforms? Nay, don’t be wishful; all with be surely disillusioned.

The fate of the country’s future leadership is the hands of each and every UMNO grassroots.

Who should the grassroots vote to nominate in replacement of PM and SIL – Up to each individual grassroots member. If Najib continues his willingness not to challenge PM, then he is standing in the way. Perhaps grassroots may consider the next best choice, let Muhyiddin challenge Najib or anyone else that is befitting as indicated by TDM.

UMNO GRASSROOTS, BE UNITED AND REJECT THE PROPOSED TRANSITION PLAN BY PM. DO NOT BE COYED. ELECT A NEW AND STRONG LEADERSHIP WHO COULD BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF THE NATION AT THESE TRYING TIMES.

III - REJECT PM AND SIL FOR THEIR INCOMPETENCY AND GRAFT

2008-07-15T09:37:00.000-07:00

Go to any corner of the country, the answer is the same - practically every ordinary Ahmad, Ah Kow and Maniam, besides those who have been “bought” by money politics or awarded contracts, wants Pak Lah and especially the SIL out of the leadership, pronto. For whatever reasons, the BN/ UMNO leadership refused to accept that the Silent Majority still acknowledges that PM and SIL were the principal causes and sole source of BN’s poor performance in the GE 12. No BN representative is allowed to challenge such misconception without being scorn.

There is no significant improvement in the political situation of the country since the GE 12; in fact, the country’s political, social and economic scenarios have indeed seriously worsened.

Following the formation of the latest cabinet, in addition to certain other elected representatives who were seen as his close associates, PM brought in certain personalities as senators, namely Mohd Taib and Zaid Ibrahim as his principal goons to push though certain of his agenda. The SIL too was responsible for bringing back into fold certain ex-UMNO youth members from PKR into UMNO with much fanfare but to the dissatisfaction and distrust of UMNO members.

Together with the MSM, the President’s men, including the 4th Floor boys form the crux of PM’s paid and loyal supporters, have been conducting a massive PR campaign to bolster the battered image of PM, continuingly trying to deceive the Nation of the stark realities on the ground thus depriving the Nation of the desperate need of a new leadership

Let’s have a brief look at some of PM’s performance to date.

a) Economics Mismanagement and Unanswered Graft
There is nothing credible in PM’s economic policies and actions compared to the 22 years of the previous administration. Many of the PM’s economic disasters and misdeeds also remains unanswered in the minds of the Rakyat and are still unresolved.

i) The Iskandar Region (southern corridor) which many especially Johorians still reject as a development concept which is dangerous and not in the best interest of the country. Singaporeans are expected to benefit massively in this so-called Sanchen project of Malaysia. The difference between Sanchen-Hong Kong and IR- Singapore is mainly the composition of the races; Sanchen-Hong Kong the race is common. Malaysia lost Singapore and to see IR in the hands of foreigners especially Singaporeans would nightmare that the Johor Malays would never want to see that happening in their life. I heard even from reliable sources that the Sultan of Johor was grossly disappointed with the project. Similarly PAS is against the IR.

Then there are so many other corridors which the population look as a mockery, more likely design to plunder the nation rather than for its social economic values. In his recent statement, PM said the idea behind the corridors is equitable distribution of quality opportunities unlike that of the NEP based on equitable distribution of income. His analogy “we don’t that from Ah Seng and give to Ahmad but (what we do is) to accelerate Ahmad’s opportunity” “if we gave them money it will be spent in no time; so we gave them opportunities for productive use” he added. I doubt many of the Bumiputra will buy his idea because he forgot to say “Well, that is after the 1st Family creams the juices (hot money) of the corridors first”.

ii) Combating fuel price increases; the flip flop policies following the recent massive increase in fuel prices, both petrol and diesel demonstrated what an incompetent PM we have. Many believed a staggered increase should have been the desired action considering the ramifications on the traditional resilience and support of the economy and the hardship of the people. Since the enormous hike which makes our retail price of petrol amongst the highest based on income parity, so very often, the Government pronounced new measures to reduce the hardship of the people arising from the reduction in petrol subsidies. It is as though the PM wanted to demonstrate that he is most understanding and considerate about the adverse impact of the fuel increases on the poor.

It has become a joke to many that the massive fuel price as unjustified, thus unnecessary tampering with the traditional resilience of the economy; the economy’s competitiveness in the international markets has been substantially eroded – overall costs of production and services have spiral, social hardship intensified and the threats of stagflation imminent.

Such fuel price hike was deemed a hasty indecision reflected by the kind of cabinet decision reached after just a 3-4 hours discussion on a matter of such great significance to the country albeit a PM who lacks interest in the financial management of the country and aspirations of the people, a leadership heading nowhere except downwards.

iii) The Trengannu Wang Ehsan – still no adequate explanation on what happen to the money and to the wide discrepancies between the state government’s and Ministry of Finance/ PETRONAS reconciliation of the Trengganu oil royalties. Of cause, linked to this, was the infamous plundering by Patric Badawi, PM and SIL and where the local business community of Trengganu were deprived of any benefit. Let’s not forget the excessive cost of constructing the Crystal Mosque and the over-priced expensive bungalows. Why the clampdown on such explanation?

iv) The blatant day light plundering by the 1st Family directly and indirectly via Scomi and others including the nuclear centrifuges case. The PM’s hands indirectly through the SIL or his son seems to emerge almost everywhere when there’s big money to be made from government contracts and economic initiations. Too much have been reported on them and the general public have long most acknowledge such revelations causing many among the Silent Majority and BN/ UMNO members to vote anybody but BN at the GE 12.. Yet PM is advocating reforms in the Judiciary and ACA when he and his interested family should be the first ones to be investigated for graft and prosecuted in court.

Some members of the public even insinuate that the two year time frame was to enable the 1st Family to adequately cover up their corruptive acts.

v) Many other bad economic decisions and shortfalls causing a waste of economic resources without any economic sense except political corruption eg “the sale by Proton of MV Augusta for RM5 while Harley buys for RM350 million”, aborting the crooked bridge, the award of APs etc.

PM had yet to prove his competency in handling the economy. Many would agree his dismal economic performance is his Achilles heals. When PM said the economy was well and under control, perhaps he was over confident on the resilience of the present economy substantially inherited from TDM, none of his doing. However, PM’s undoing of certain of the present economic policies being his rational for economic reforms is expected to cause further disasters and dire consequences to the country especially if the country is confronted with unprecedented world wide economic run-offs arising from the sub-prime loan crises, the depreciating and possible free fall of the value of the USD, a prolonged US recession, stagflation.

I now tend to realize that the massive fuel price hike was to purposely provide the opportunity for PM to demonstrate his consideration and kindness to the most affected, such a disgraceful act of our PM. Check on the latest results from PETRONAS and see how strong its financial results are, there is justification for a staggered fuel price hike!

The economic turmoil, both national and world wide, is expected to worsen in the immediate future especially after the Olympics. Such tsunami is expected to impact the country worse than the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis. The present weak leadership under PM by precedent seemed incompetent to handle them. We urgently require a new team to lead the country.

Thus re-electing PM (and SIL) into power would be unwisely of UMNO grassroots members who would have to consider the best interest of the Rakyat at heart. Indeed whoever takes over is expected to inherit a terribly messed up and weakened economy the longer PM stays in office.

b) Social Disorder
I am not being racialist or a religious extremist but I am a concern citizen. A number of racial and religious rumblings and tension never experienced since a very long time is happening under the Flip Flop administration. I would believe this to be the consequence of PM’s promises of populist and liberal reforms and his blatant indecisions which have been taken advantage by the Opposition parties, the Bar Council and other human rights groups. It would not be too far fetch to imply that foreign powers too may have a hand in them.

Some of the troubling sensitive issues are as follows
i) the Social Contract; in particular the NEP have been readily questioned by those aspirants of Malaysian Malaysia and Ketuanan Rakyat while the concept of Ketuanan Melayu has been purposely misconstrued causing agitation and concern amongst the Bumiputra’s and others. The Bar Council (Zaid Ibrahim’s toy) played a pivotal role under the guise of freedom of speech and human rights (like that guaranteed the US constitution) without considering the prevailing and accepted rule of law in Malaysia.

As a consequence of PM’s incompetence and inaction, Malay NGOs have come together united in their stand on Ketuanan Melayu and the sustaining of the social contract. PAS has since come forward to discuss with UMNO on common grounds relating to the Malay race and Islam; any issues relating to the NEP and Islam cannot be compromised. It would appear that with this regard, the PAS president has taken the lead from PM, what sham of a PM who know naught except procrastinate and listen to the advice of the inexperience SIL.

ii) the religious and democratic tolerances in tandem with the demands of the US State Department; in particular the word ALLAH by the Catholic Archbishop. Due to the change in certain governments at state levels, the quest of uncontrolled construction of non-Islamic religious houses of worship, the massive construction of a modern facility to produce pigs etc, etc have also further aggravated the social structure.

Any firm action by PM would be conflicting with his pro-reformist intentions and he would loose ground with the Minority and human rights aspirants

iii) the PSD scholarship ratio issue - manipulated by SIL in posting 2.

iv) Judiciary Reform – unearthing the 20 year old Tun Salleh Abas case, the payment of ex-gratia, the Linggam Video Tapes have been initiated purportedly by the Government to achieve other nasty objectives besides the intention of reforming the Judiciary.

Reverting Article 121 A of the constitution to its original form will have serious social and legal repercussions. The proposed formation of a Judicial Appointment Commission too is expected to have its shortfalls with some insinuating that the appointees will be “friendly” to PM and the 1st Family so that no action would be taken against them after PM leaves office.

To stay on for another two years, PM gave the same lame justification that that “I still have work to do” and the two year time frame would be adequate to push through the many reforms he had promised, this time mentioning specifically graft (ACA) and judiciary reforms.

Note: of late, the ACA seemed to be everywhere when there were problems concerning personalities of BN/ UMNO. When Ahmad Said was named as the preferred choice of MB by the Sultan of Trengganu, immediately the ACA/ BPR was in Trengganu to verify accusations on Ahmad Said’s graft. Similarly Yong Teck Lee when the SAPP announced its earlier intention to support a vote no confidence against PM. Now the Deputy DG of Immigration, his relatives and others have been quizzed by ACA. Why I wonder, can the ACA be that truly independent after being directed around so easily by the SIL and the 4th Floor boys?

UMNO members should take note that most of PM’s populist/ liberal reforms are not in the best interest of the Malay community but are readily welcomed by the Opposition parties particularly PKR and DAP and human rights group headed by the Bar Council.

In fact there are many in the UMNO Supreme Council who are not in agreement with PM’s reformist policies. Thus while PM had put these reforms on hold at the present moment, consistent with his flip flop behavior, he is expected to push through the populist and liberal reforms after his re-election and so as not to have be obstructed within his parties, expect the dissenting members to be removed from their existing positions.

It would appear that PM intends to please the Non-Malay community rather his political base, UMNO, with his pro-reforms. Perhaps he is aware that only the Minority and the Malaysian Malaysia are receptive to support for such reform. Thus leaving his legacy of being Malaysia’s Father of Democracy could find good support among principally the non-Malays; what a joke!

A leader should be aware that reforms can only be successful if it is readily accepted by all concern i.e. the mass population. To forcefully push through will indeed be resisted and in this instant by the bulk of the Silent Majority. For any critical reform that will affect the well being as well as the social and judicial structure of the population, 1 1/2 years is definitely too long for such introductions but seeing them successfully through requires definitely more than 2 years, maybe 4 or more years.

In the past 5 years of his administration, PM has done practically nothing, would anyone believe that giving PM another two years would make any difference? I am sure UMNO grassroots are fully conscious of PM’s lack of credibility and persistent inconsistencies and of cause his prevailing bad performance.

Thus by the time an incumbent inherits the Prime Ministership, the social and judicial fabric would likely be very messy, whacked and the incumbent worse off.

c) Politically Instability

In the GE 12, BN suffered their worst performance, not because the electorates like the Opposition but many traditional supporters voted in their protest against PM. As a result several non-Bumiputra component parties within BN in mainland Malaysia were practically wiped out.

PM now heads an extremely weak government and its small majority in parliament is constantly being challenged by the Opposition, causing consistent political instability. Foreign funds have again put Malaysia off their radar screen.

For the next election due in 2013, some envisaged UMNO/ BN would require about 4 years from now to consolidate their strength; there are a lot of critical areas to be covered. As PM has indicated that he will not lead BN in the next election, thus Najib would have insufficient time to structure BN/ UMNO to be at its best for the GE 13.

The two year period is therefore considered too long and many things can happen before then especially for one like PM who is known for his flip flop decisions, preferring the interest of the 1st Family over everything else. By that time, Najib may just be replaced by someone else. Thus the rumblings have continued and expected to intensify in the days to come.

It is most apparent that PM and the SIL do not actually have the hearts and minds of the people at stake: it is only their selfish interests. Therefore PM and SIL are apparently the present source and cause of the fractional politics within UMNO.

Again PM and SIL showing of genuine concern that competition for the No.1 and No.2 post would cause internal fractions within UMNO is merely a big farce, propagated to block any potential threat against them. By such action, PM and SIL has demonstrated that UMNO, the backbone of BN, is indeed an immature party and thus making a mockery of the leadership within the Malay community.

UMNO GRASSROOTS, VOTE OUT PM AND HIS MEN INCLUDING SIL AND REPLACE THEM WITH OTHER UMNO LEADERS WHO ARE MORE CAPABLE, COMMITTED AND LOYAL TO THE PARTY.

THE COUNTRY NEEDS NEW BLOOD, A NEW LEADERSHIP TEAM, NOT THE PRESENT WEAK PM AND THE IMMATURE SIL.

II - UMNO GRASSROOTS SHOULD VOTE AGAINST THE APPARENT SELFISH AND ARROGANT PM AND SIL

2008-07-15T09:30:00.000-07:00

The SIL was not the appropriate UMNO politician to raise such a sensitive yet most decisive issue about not questioning the 2 year transitional time frame agreed between his father-in-law as PM and the DPM when

i) SIL is seen as the key advocator for all the liberal and po1pulist reforms behind his father-in-law. Thus, he makes himself a mockery of the proposed reforms because it appears he fails to understand the implication of such reforms by behaving so prejudicially protecting the interest of the 1st Family

ii) SIL is seen as the key benefactor if his father-in-law remains longer in office; without PM’s presence, the SIL is practically politically dead.

iii) The transitional time frame allows the SIL to utilize his father-in-law’s goodwill to secure a place in the UMNO Youth candidacy and for his continued political dominance and quest to be PM at 40, otherwise he could be stoned by the mass majority of UMNO Youth grassroots members who hated him for the selfish self-centered person he is.

iv) Most incestuous and dirty type of parochial politics to have a father-in-law as PM while the SIL is the young 32 year old principal punk, inexperienced politician running around like a black hound dog barking for his father-in-law’s political survival.

v) Ever wondered why not many UMNO politicians are as vocal as the SIL on this matter of such significance? No, not because they respect PM and SIL but because any one seen not complying with their whims and fancies will be intimidated, coerced and put into limbo and then terminated.

By such pronouncement, the SIL has indeed seriously violated Article 20.12 of UMNO’s Constitution but by his nature, the SIL does not give a damn on existing rules. Compare such low dignity with that of Shabery Cheek who did not want RTM to telecast live the debate between himself and DSAI because he did not want to be accused of misusing RTM to air official programmes involving him, he would rather let other television networks do the telecast. The “black boy” of UMNO is indeed immature, abusing rules to serve his selfish purpose which is most unbecoming of any politician.

In his brutal and cheapskate politics, the SIL recently publicly questioned the excessive PSD scholarships given to Non-Bumiputras having exceeded the quotas while requesting the Agong to intervene. I have already discussed this matter in my earlier posting; it’s all about bolstering his fledging and hollow image, using the mass media to put himself in a favorable position in anticipation of announcing the UMNO Youth candidacy.

AS ILLUSTRATED SIL AND PM HAS NOT CHANGED FOR THE BETTER SINCE THE GE 12.

UMNO GRASSROOTS, BE UNITED AT THE FORTH COMING CAWANGAN, DIVISION AND PAU AND REJECT PM AND HIS MEN INCLUDING SIL AND REPLACE THEM WITH ANY ONE ELSE PREFABLY A NEW STRONG LEADERSHIP WITH BETTER CLOUD, COMMITMENT, INTERGRITY AND DEDICATION TO THE RAKYAT.

I- VOTE ANY UMNO LEADERS EXCEPT PM AND SIL OR THEIR CRONIES

2008-07-15T09:27:00.000-07:00

UMNO members maybe be deceived by PM and SIL with the announcement of the 2 year period for Najib to takeover. UMNO grassroots members has been endowed by this golden opportunity to remove an incompetent PM and his irresponsible SIL from power at its general assembly (PAU) this year.

I am not an UMNO member but have been its ardent supporter all the while; the Silent Majority is hoping that UMNO members would not disappoint the public in re-electing PM for the No.1 position as well as SIL for any position in UMNO Youth.

The SIL was quoted to have said that UMNO leaders should not questioned the 2 year transitional time frame agreed between his father-in-law as PM and the DPM which was supposedly in consistent with the wishes of the Supreme Council at their retreat in Shah Alam in early June 2008.

Why should not the transition be questioned when it is the right of each UMNO member to do just do that? Is the SIL intimidating and coercing UMNO members as usual, only this time desperate for his survival as per Elvis singing “it’s now or never”?

Following my very good friend’s advice, I have broken this original piece of writing into several postings so as to deliver specifically the several different messages in each of the postings but all released on the same day.

The overall conclusion is simple:

UMNO GRASSROOTS, BE UNITED AT YOUR COMING CAWANGAN, DIVISION AND PAU ASSEMBLIES AND EFFECTIVELY TAKE OUT PM AND HIS MEN INCLUDING SIL AND REPLACE THEM WITH A COMPLETELY NEW SET OF CAPABLE LEADERSHIP WITH INTEGRITY.

PM AND SIL HAD AND STILL FAIL TO DEMONSTRATE THE LEADERSHIP QUALITIES TO RUN THE NATION, NEIGHTER APPRECIATE THE FATE AND WANTS OF THE MAJORITY OF THE RAKYAT EXCEPT THEIRS.

LISTEN NOT TO THE RUBBISH PROPORGANDA BY PM AND SIL.
JUST LIKE WHAT HAD HAPPENED DURING GE 12, LET HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF, VOTE OUT PM AND SIL FOR THE BEST INTEREST OF THE NATION

THE WORD ALLAH PART 7: THE DATE IS NOVEMBER 21 2008

2008-07-10T21:10:00.000-07:00

The High Court’s Appellate and Special Powers Division has fixed November 21 2008 to hear all the intervention cases made by various parties to intervene in the suit over the word “Allah”.

The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur objects to the various, mostly Islamic religious councils’ in intervening in the suit namely for the states of Penang, Trengganu, Perak, FT, Selangor and Kedah. Yesterday, the Johor Islamic Religious Council also filed an application to intervene.

The Perak Religious and Malay Customs withdrew its application and would file a fresh one before the hearing date. I am hopeful that the fresh application will be comprehensive to intervene in this suit and as well as the other civil suit filed by the Archbishop.

So it was as reported in the Star a couple of days ago.

It does appear that the Archbishop seems to pay little heed to the pronouncement of the Royalty not to aggravate religious issues sensitive to the tranquility of the masses. In my recent discussion on the matter with fellow Muslims, I found more of them to be fully aware and concern about these developments to date. Thus if need be, I sure the majority of them would voice out their anger and frustration if the matter is not resolved by the authorities, what more if the matter were to be brought out to the Muslims in their Friday congregations.

The mater at hand was in relation to the imposed conditions on the prohibition of the word Allah in The Herald, a Catholic weekly publication. The Archbishop has also filed another civil suit seeking, amongst others, to declare that the word “Allah” is not exclusive to the religion of Islam, thus expanding the spectrum of the argument. I just hope the Archbishop will not rope in foreign interference into a local issue.

We wait and see and hopeful that the Archbishop will come to his senses for the sake of peace and tranquility.

CHEAPSKATE POLITICS - THE NORM OF SIL

2008-07-10T21:08:00.000-07:00

I smiled and laughed as I read with full of amusement in the newspapers the kind of politics used by the SIL to galvanize Malay public support to enhance in badly damaged image in relation to the PSD scholarship quota.

I am sure many UMNO members would be anguished with the call by the “black boy”, as some UMNO members would call the SIL, since they could see through his obvious covert intention:

The UMNO election is just around the corner and of late the SIL has been quoted frequently in the MSM while PM has been mostly silent. The issues SIL had brought out were without much meat but yet given emphasis by the media. He’s up in full force with a propaganda agenda to bolter his battered image. Thus, he had to find something drastic to make an issue out and he expected the PSD scholarship quota could be most befitting.

Who runs the Government – the Agong or the PM? Why his need to call for the Agong to interfere on such a small issue which was managed easily all these years? Don’t we all know that the SIL and the 4th Floor boys have been interfering much into the affairs of the administration of the country to the frustration of the civil servants? Is he trying to demonstrate that he never interfered in government administration? I would not be surprise if the SIL had purposely allowed or even had his hands dirty for such issue to become apparent so that he could eventually make politics out of it.

Why ask for help from the Agong now, is the “black boy” trying to uplift the position of the Agong after his and his father-in-law’s disastrous public relation failures in the Trengganu MB and Wang Ehsan debacles? I am sure the Agong too could see through SIL for what he truly is – a political pariah.

See how Najib confronted the issue; he said “We will check it. We will look at it first”. Najib represents the Government and rightfully he does not want to politicize the issue. I am sure Najib is aware such small issue can be resolved by the Government without bringing in the Agong and other interested parties into the fold.

I am hopeful that UMNO akar umbi would be able to see through ‘the black boy’s” stupid action and not be fooled by such cheapskate political ploys. There’s only one obvious solution to stop such cheapskate wannabe politicians – the akar umbi should vote him out ((better word is kick him) of any UMNO Youth post for being so politically corrupt and a STUPIDO.

The manner the SIL’s devilish hands dwelled in this issue gave me the impression that he could be implicitly behind other political conspiracies wreaking the country at present.

Update:
The “black boy” has been exceptionally vocal of late. Could this be his trumpeting before making his announcement to bid the UMNO youth post now that PM has announced his transition to Najib only in 2010? What a joke it be for Malaysian politics when the PM and SIL bids for the No.1 posts for UMNO and UMNO Youth!
Are we to see further cheapskate politics like this unabatedly by the SIL under the extended period of PM’s stay in office. Already the SIL commented that PM;s announcement on the transition handover in 2010 was for the best of the party when we know so well that self interest have always been their game – two kill two birds with one stone, maybe but definitely to the destruction of the country.

MAKING THE BEST OF DEMONSTRATIONS/ PROTESTS

2008-07-04T22:52:00.000-07:00

While in ITM

I can still remember those good old days in Insititut Teknologi Mara (now UITM) in the middle 70’s when life as a student was most free and full of fun. Then came the announcement of the appointment of Tun as Deputy Minister of Education and soon thereafter the Universities Act; the students organized demonstrations against the restrictive policies. Cordon off within the campus, the students demonstrated their hate against Tun; I was among them though not actively involved. Envisaging that the authorities may storm the campus, one day in the wee morning, I and a couple of my roommates made our way through the rubber estates and escaped. However later, accused being too vocal during a subsequent interview by ITM administration to sieve problematic students, I was dismissed from ITM. The academic results soon came out and due to my good results following an appeal; I was allowed to continue my studies in ITM. I eventually ended up being the best student in my course.

Post ITM

As time went by as I pursued my career, my perspective of life changed. During the period of Tengku Razaliegh verses Mahathir, against all others in my department, I alone stood by Tun. When news of the Sodomy Part 1 came out, I again stood by Tun. In both these two instance, I did not stand just blindly behind Tun; I did my background research including discussions with those in the know in establishing my stand. When Bush/ US invaded Iraq, I bought t-shirts depicting evil Bush and purposely wore them as my own way of demonstrating in silence as I went around shopping in areas I know the foreigners would do their shopping. I still remembered people smiling at me, some even congratulating me for my extremely nice t-shirt while the faces of some ‘white’ foreigners were blushing red, looking concern. So what, if the US and its allies brand Muslims as ‘Islamic Terrorists’ and subject to tighter security measures at their airports, I exerted my full rights to demonstrate silently against ‘them’ in my country.

Present Day

Coming to present day, the cost of living has really gone up. I really feel the pinch as I have 5 dependent kids to bring up. Hearing our stupido PM and his Minister Shahril asking the rakyat like me to change life style and cut consumption following the more 40% petrol price hike made me sick. Being a professional, I sensed that PM and his cronies had failed grossly in managing the economic woes of the country. With his style of care less management, anyone including I can be PM. It’s time for PM to go and quick before the economic and political stability worsens.

Coalition Against Inflation

Just yesterday, a friend of mine from JB called up wanting to meet me and asking me to have a look see at the proposed protest organized by the Coalition against Inflation (Protest) against the recent fuel price hike. I would have like to but because the objective of the protest had been corrupted to allow DSAI. to boost his standing arising from Sodomy Part 2, I told my friend “forget it; I don’t want to be associated anything with that Political Bugger”.

The protest suit those who would only believe that the Political Bugger is right while all others are wrong, including the army, police, our legal system etc. These people namely the Opposition members are afraid that if the Political Bugger is found guilty, the new found Pakatan Rakyat will be in complete disarray and therefore still born. So the “niat” of the protest has been fouled/ corrupted by this deceptive purpose. It’s a pity that PAS subscribes to these illusionary and deceptive objectives of DAP, PKR and politicized human rights movements like the Malaysian Bar Council under the guise of Protest. I am quite sure many who had wished to join the protest against the fuel hike but not associated with the aspirations of Opposition parties will unlikely participate.

In the said protest, the Opposition will want to manipulate showing that times have changed in our country since 10 years ago. In my anger, I would say bullocks – since time immemorial, man has deviated much from God’s directives thus the perennial problems of to-day, prostitution being the oldest trade in the world still strives beyond recognition in our country sodomy destroyed under Sodom and Gomorrah is very much alive and indulged even in this country, Malaysians still eat chicken, fish, meat etc, every Malaysian will still have to make a living to feed his family. Really sick propaganda of the desperate DAP.. .

Protest Against US.

Yesterday about 50 members of the Malaysian Islamic Consumers Association handed over a memo to the US embassy on that country’s interference in our country’s internal affairs following US Department spokesman Tom Casey’s statement on DSAI’s Sodomy Part 2. Unfortunately the embassy was closed for the US embassy day.

DSAI is the favorite “horse” of the US for many of its endeavors against the Muslim world. DSAI is Chairman of the Foundation of the Future where the US had given USD30M to fund its various activities in Arab and African countries to promote ‘greater freedom and liberty’ ie the elements of human rights. As commonly held, no type of human rights are good enough to the US except as theirs, so US will messed up things whenever they sniff.. Definitely if this US horse falls shamelessly, the repercussions on the naughty prospects of the Muslim agenda by the US administration under the Foundation of the Future will consequently collapse. So will be the loud laughter in the US University where the Political Bugger is a visiting Professor. The US tak sanggup “malu muka”, too much of their interest is at stake. The US is likely to protect their horse at all cost.

We also have in Parliament an old hack in the wheel chair and his political supports commenting what’s wrong in DSAI being a US snitch. If Malaysia can interfere on Palestine, the US has every right to interfere in DSAI’s case. Seemed the old hack refused to differentiate between the two; he’s all too desperate to see his dreams of Malaysian Malaysia crumble before his eyes. The DAP had and can never ever share the aspirations of the Malays being the majority when it comes particularly to the economics of the Malays and Islam but yet promoting a Malaysian Malaysia, very confusing and deceptive.

UMNO Youth wants to protest against the interference of the US and other foreign powers in our country’s affairs. It’s commendable and timely but it would be better if

i) other Malay/ Muslim groups also take part in the demonstration for reasons stated above in emphasis to the threat from the Foundation of the Future

ii) greater publicity in the MSM on the objectives of the demonstration

iii) the march/ demonstration should commence from the US embassy to the Turkish and perhaps Singapore embassies or vice versa to give the impact on foreign interferences (just handing over a protest note to the US embassy is a waste of time and effort)

iv) Placards should hit not only at the US but also the DAP/ Malaysian Bar Council/ DSAI/ LK Siang/ Kapal Singh etc

v) Do not disturb the freeway and be in compliance with law and order but ensure that the demonstration should be effective with full media coverage.

But PM will not allow such kind of demonstration; he’s so weak, so flip flop that when the US squeezes his balls just a little, he will behave like the Opposition. It would be better for the rakyat to use its resources to “demonstrate”/ protest peacefully for PM’s removal for he’s the main source of much of the rakyat’s current hardship and the current political instability, disruption in the peace and harmony and mismanagement of this country. That time has already come, in conjunction with eliminating the US horse from the political equation.

PERTANDINGAN SILAT SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH MALAYSIA – BAHAGIAN 4

2008-07-04T02:20:00.000-07:00

BAHAGIAN –4 KESIMPULAN DAN TUNTUTAN IBU BAPA (dipetikkan daripada laporan ibu bapa kepada Jabatan Pelajaran WPKL )

4.1 KESIMPULAN IBU BAPA MENGENAI PERISTIWA INI

Apabila ibu bapa mengamati apa yang telah berlaku, ibu bapa berpendapat bahawa:

i) Pegawai-pegawai kontingen (terutama nya Pengerusi Teknik WPKL, Pengurus Pasukan JPWPKL dan Cikgu NE) yang sebenarnya telah gagal memastikan persikitaran dan suasana yang sihat, gagal mengurus dengan baik serta gagal memupuk semangat kesemua pelajar-pelajar yang mewakili WPKL supaya mereka berupaya untuk memberi yang terbaik. Ini dalam kawalan mereka tetapi anak-anak ini pula, yang masih bawa umur dan belum cukup matang, yang dijadikan sasaran dan dituduh menjadi penyebab.

ii) Sekiranya benar semangat seluruh peserta kotingen tergugat, ia bukan kerana perbuatan anak-anak ini tetapi kerana ketidakkecekapan pegawai-pegawai mengurus dan bagaimana menyelesaikan masaalah dengan penuh hemah. Pesikitaran yang tidak sihat dan jauh dari memberangsangkan pasti gagal menghasilkan kejayaan. Pegawai-pegawai tersebut membuangkan tenaga mencari keselahan F dan R memyebabkan persikitaran bertambah toksik dari hari kesehari. Perbuatan ini yang menyebabkan rakan-rakan sepasukan terpengaruh dengan sikap yang tidak sihat ini.

These officers principally the Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL, Pengurus Pasukan and Cikgu NE have shown they do not know how to manage and how to deal with problems effectively. (When the parents subsequently discussed with teachers and headmistresses from several schools and public, this was the accepted cause –the officers just don’t know to manage )

“We cannot be managers if we do not know how to manage problems effectively”

iii) Pegawai-pegawai kontingen gagal atau dengan sengaja tidah mahu mengiktiraf peranan guru-guru silat yang telah membantu anak-anak ini menjadi juara. Disiplin didalam silat sendiri menekankan betapa pentingnya sesiapa yang menuntut ilmu silat perlu saling menghormati terutama kepada guru silat mereka tetapi pegawai-pegawai tersebut menggalakkan sebaliknya. Pegawai-pegawai sepatutnya memberi tunjuk ajar kepada anak-anak ini bagaimana mengimbangi taat setia mereka kepada guru-guru silat dengan tanggungjawab mereka sebagai wakil kontingen WPKL. (Itu barulah dikatakan pendidek)

iv) Pegawai-pegawai kontingen WPKL sepatutnya melihat perhubungan anak-anak ini dengan guru-guru silat mereka dari sudut positif. Anak-anak ini menjadi juara kerana bimbingan guru-guru silat mereka yang merupakan juara negeri dan kebangsaan dengan salah seorang daripadanya merupakan juara seni silat dunia 2 kali berturut-turut dan merupakan anak kepada guru utama dalam pertubuhan silat mereka. Mereka jurulatih bertauliah dan graduan universiti dengan salah seorang daripadanya merupakan seorang sarjana dalam Sain Sukan dan akan melanjutkan pengajian untuk mendapat ijazah kedoktoran Filasafah dalan bidang ini tidak lama lagi (telah pun melanjutkan pengajian ke United Kingdom).

Pegawai-pegawai kontingen sepatutnya mengambil kesempatan dengan hubungan ini sebagai satu strategic collaboration yang boleh meningkatkan mutu silat pelajar pelajar WPKL. Malangnya pegawai-pegawai kontingen WPKL melihat anak-anak ini dengan Guru Silat mereka dan kontingen Putrajaya dengan penuh curiga.

4.2 CADANGAN TINDAKAN KEATAS PEGAWAI PEGAWAI

Mungkin ada yang ingin mempersalahkan apa yang berlaku terhadap anak-anak ini sebagai pergolakan atau perbezaan faham antara guru-guru silat dan kumpulan-kumpulan silat mereka/ beberapa orang pengurusan kontingen tetapi ibu bapa tidak dapat meneima alasan tersebut – anak anak ini tidak sepatut nya menjadi mangsa. Kebencian pegawai-pegawai ini begitu terang dan nyata sehingga mereka tidak dapat mengawal diri mereka dan dengan sewenang-wenangnya menyalahkan pihak atau orang lain.

By the display of their blatant and grave misconduct, the said officials, two being male adults, have inflicted tremendous damange and injury on the two female students. The said officials are most irresponsible if they perceive such a grave matter should be taken so lightly; this is no laughing matter.

These actions cannot be justified on grounds that generally students who take up Silat as a co-curriculum activity are those who are not industrious in their studies and have excess energy to be expended elsewhere. It reflects that these so-called teachers have grossly failed in the tasks before them. These two exemplary students, well disciplined have taken Silat as a Sports they want to go far. The said officials are not transparent, developed a ‘blind spot’ in making decisions and displayed poor management skills.

Hanya memberi amaran atau tegoran sahaja tidak akan berkesan. Justeru ibu bapa mencadangkan:

i) Tindakan Inquiri/ Jawatankuasa Disiplin.

ii) Penggantungan serta-merta

iii) Memohon ma’af secara terbuka (Public Apology)

iv) Memulangkan barang –barang kepunyaan anak-anak ini.

a) Sijil penyertaan hendak lah diberi segera kepada anak-anak ini, sebaik-baik nya, disatu upacara resmi dihadapan pegawai-pegawai tinggi JPWPKL, Pengetua Sekolah dan juga peserta-peserta kontingen JPWPKL supaya mertabat dan nama anak anak ini di pulih kembali.

b) Baju traksuit dan lain lain kelengkapan sukan yang telah dirampas daripada kedua-dua anak ini perlu dipulangkan kepada mereka atas prinsip kedua-dua anak ini memeng mewakili WPKL dikejohanan tersebut.

c) Gambar kontingen Silat WPKL yang anak-anak ini sudah pun membuat bayaran, patut diberikan kepada kedua-dua mereka.

THE WORLD ALLAH – PART 6: NOW, SIKHS WANT TO BE PART OF SUIT OVER THE WORD ALLAH

2008-07-04T00:16:00.000-07:00

Interesting, after so long, the Malaysian Gurdwaras Council said the word “Allah” in reference to God was an integral part of the original version of the Sikh holy book, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji and such has become the latest party seeking to intervene in the suit by the Catholic Church over the use of the word “Allah.” As such, its President said, no followers of the Sikh religion would tolerate any form of obstruction on the use of the original terms taken from the holy book.

I wonder whose next from the MCCBCHS (Malaysian Consultative Council of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism and Sikhism), after digging (korek and korek) into their holy books, will join into the fray confirming that the word “Allah” is indeed part and parcel in their religion.

I am still waiting for PAS to intervene as the Party has always pronounced that only joining the Party, the faithful are assured place in heaven. Being among the faithful, PAS must know how dear the word Allah is to its members and now Allah has been wrongly associated in similar status with Trinity and the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. PAS’s intervention and their confirmation on this matter should be in priority compared to interfering in the affairs in the running the Selangor and Perak mosque councils. PAS stand should be consistent with its earlier standing against the formation of the Interfaith Commission; is PAS also a flip flop party or incapacitated by its political associations in Pakatan Rakyat in making a holy judgment?

I do not wish to seek any response from DSAI, the defacto leader of Pakatan Rakyat, because he’s under unimaginable influence of the US administration which propagates religious tolerances amidst greater freedom and liberty.

Nonetheless, I would also hope to hear from PM and the defacto Minister in charge of Islamic Affairs about their confirm views on the word Allah as sought by the Catholic Church and the Sikh community; because is it not PM who was responsible for such hopes on liberal and tolerant reforms in this country that so many issues have got out of hand causing immense political and social instability, besides being a graduate in Islamic Studies as well as being the son of a well known ulama. Please do not be captivated by the Malaysian Malaysia’s concept that the majority of our population, (the Muslims?), have changed and is a matured lot since the past 10 years.

Finally this issue should be brought forward for deliberations at the UMNO elections for a united stand and in togetherness with other Malay/ Islamic NGOs and the religious councils under the patronage of the Agong and Sultans. The paramount use of the word Allah should be given equivalent if not given greater status than the existing social contract for deliberations. Along with this issue, neutralize the core origination of many of the Malaysians’ aches – the Malaysian Bar Council and its hoard of human rights activists.

The sanctity of the Muslim faith is being threatened; UMNO members should not be ignorant and allow unnecessary calamity to befall on the Muslim faithful, it is an issue pertaining to the UMMAH of this country and UMNO should take rightfully take the lead in supporting the role of the Agong/ Sultan if it considers itself the Party representing the Malays.

PERTANDINGAN SILAT SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH MALAYSIA – BAHAGIAN 3

2008-06-29T21:16:00.000-07:00

BAHAGIAN 3– Peristiwa Amat Pahit di Pertandingan Silat Sekolah-Sekolah Malaysia 2007 di Kota Bahru.

(dipetikkan daripada laporan ibu bapa kepada Jabatan Pelajaran WPKL)

3.1 Latar Belakang

Beberapa salah faham telah berlaku diantara guru-guru silat F& R dengan Encik H (selaku Pengurus Pasukan JPWPKL dan kemudiannya diangkat pangkat sebagai Pengurus Pasukan) dan Encik K, Ketua Teknik Silat JPWPKL pada malam sebelum pertandingan berlangsung dan pada pagi nya, yang tidak melibatkan kedua pesilat F and R. Guru-guru silat F dan R secara rasmi nya merupakan pegawai-pegawai kontingen negeri lain di kejohanan tersebut.

Walaupun anak-anak ini, F dan R, tidak terlibat didalam sengketa antara dewasa, mereka tetap di anaiya oleh pengurusan kontingen WPKL mulai hari pertama di Kejohanan di Kota Bahru itu. Pada hari 3, setelah F dan R membuat persembahan mereka, kedua anak ini ditindas habis-habisan yang kononnya direstui JPWPKL seperti dicatitkan didalam surat JPWPKL.

Ibu bapa F yang berada di Kuala Lumpur hanya tahu perkara amat pahit tersebut sehingga selepas ia nya berlaku.

3.2 Penindasan terhadap F & R

Didalam laporan aduan ibu bapa, tercatitnya aduan-aduan terperinci serta akibatnya daripada pengakuan bertulis anak-anak ini adalah seperti berikut:-

(i) Pada hari pertama 23 Julai 2007 waktu rehat makan tengah hari bertempat di tempat paking kereta, Pengurus Pasukan bertindak kejam, bersikap keterlaluan dan melulu apabila memarahi dan menggertak F dan R yang anak-anak ini akan dihantar pulang ke Kuala Lumpur dan menulis sebab mengapa anak-anak ini tidak bertanding menyebabkan anak-anak ini menangis, keliru dan ketakutan.

Ini berikutan konon nya perbuatan F dan R pergi duduk dengan kontingen Putrajaya pada pagi hari tersebut apabila dipanggil oleh jurulatih, Encik N yang merupakan guru silat anak-anak ini bertujuan untuk memberi nasihat supaya melakukan yang terbaik bila bertanding nanti. Encik N merupakan pegawai kontingen Putrajaya.

(ii) Pada hari yang sama, 23 Julai 2007, lebih kurang 10 malam, bertempat di dalam Stadium Jubli Perak, Kelantan, Encik K selaku Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL telah bertindak keterlaluan mengaibkan dan memalukan anak-anak ini, secara tidak langsung tetapi jelas ditujukan kepada F dan R, di hadapan seluruh kontingen dengan mengatakan jurulatih anak-anak ini jurulatih gila dan silat mereka ialah silat gila dan dengan sengaja memperlekehkan Guru Silat dan aliran perguruan silat (Seni Silat Gayung Fatani) yang mereka pelajari

(iii) Pada masa dan tempat yang sama dengan (ii) di atas, Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL telah menggertak dan menghina F dan R bahawa beliau memberi peluang kepada anak-anak ini untuk memberi kata putus sama ada anak-anak ini akan bertanding sehingga keesokannya menyebabkan anak-anak ini ketakutan dan bingung dengan sikap keterlaluannya.

(iv) Pada hari yang sama, 23 Julai 2007, di dalam bus yang menjadi pengangkutan kontingen WPKL semasa dalam perjalanan pulang ke tempat penginapan, dengan menggunakan mikrofon, Pengurus Pasukan zpula telah mengaibkan, memalukan dan dengan sengaja cuba mematahkan semangat anak-anak ini, secara tidak langsung tetapi jelas ditujukan kepada F dan R supaya jangan fanatik kepada 1 jenis silat dan jangan terperangkap dalam tempurung. Beliau sebelum ini lebih maklum kerana telah diberitahu F dan R tentang cita-cita mereka untuk pergi jauh dengan Guru Silat mereka..

(v) Pada hari kedua, 24 Julai 2007, lebih kurang pukul 11 malam, bertempat di dewan PCB Resort, semasa taklimat diadakan, Encik H selaku Pengurus Pasukan telah berlaku tidak adil kepada F dan R kerana dengan sengaja memberi baju-T yang bersaiz terlalu besar untuk F dan R sedangkan peserta-peserta lain yang bersusuk lebih besar mendapat saiz baju yang lebih kecil menyebabkan anak-anak ini terasa ada diskriminasi terhadap mereka.

(vi) Pada pagi sehingga tengahari hari ketiga 25 Julai 2007 bertempat di luar dewan PPKB, pegawai-pegawai bersikap keterlaluan, tanpa belas kasihan dan tanpa memikir tentang impak ke atas emosi, memperlakukan seolah-olah F dan R seperti penjenayah dengan mengarah beberapa rakan sepasukan untuk memerhati pergerakan anak-anak ini semasa F dan R sedang berlatih menyebabkan mereka rasa terhina dan menghadapi tekanan jiwa.

(vii) Pada hari yang sama, 25 Julai 2007 lebih kurang pukul 5 petang di dalam bas semasa dalam perjalanan pulang ke tempat penginapan selepas tamat acara Seni Silat Tempur, Pengurus Pasukan dengan perasaan begitu marah kepada F dan R, telah mencabar masuk gelanggang Guru Silat anak-anak ini di hadapan pelajar-pelajar dan ahli kontingen yang lain untuk melemahkan semangat mereka terhadap Guru Silat yang mereka begitu hormati. Pada acara tersebut F dan R telah menukar format persembahan dengan memasukkan seni tempor yang lebih tinggi pada saat akhir atas cadangan Guru Silat

(viii) Pada masa dan tempat yang sama seperti (vii) di atas, Penghulu Kontingen, besar kemungkinan atas arahan pegawai-pegawai tersebut dengan terang-terang telah membahagikan gambar kontingen WPKL yang telah diambil sebelum ini. kepada setiap peserta melainkan Fiqah dan Roselyn, maka dengan sengaja memalukan, mengaib dan mengecewakan anak-anak ini

(ix) Pada malam 25 Julai 2007, di sekitar pukul 10 lebih bertempat di hadapan dewan yang menjadi tempat berlangsungnya Majlis Makan Malam selepas berakhirnya Majlis tersebut, disebabkan menukar format persembahan dan juga dipengaruhi oleh pegawai-pegawai berkenaan, En G pegawai daripada JPWPKL di hadapan beberapa pegawai kontingen telah menyoal F dan R, memberi amaran serta memaklumkan tindakan disiplin boleh di ambil ke atas kedua-dua anak-anak ini kerana perbuatan anak-anak ini yang telah menukar format persembahan{* tetapi beliau akan hanya mengesyorkan kepada pentabiran sekolah supaya sesi kaunseling dikenakan ke atas anak-anak ini dan mereka akan dipantau sekembali mereka ke sekolah} menyebabkan anak-anak ini berasa ketatutan dan malu kerana hal ini akan sampai ke pengetahuan guru-guru SBU.

*{telah dikatakan oleh G selepas perbincangan dengan Cikgu N esok hari nya}

(x) Pada masa dan tempat yang sama dengan (ix) di atas, Pengurus pasukan telah mengaib dan memalukan F dan R apabila menuduh anak-anak ini degil dan keras hati apabila berdiam diri kecuali mengatakan supaya bertanya kepada Guru Silat kenapa mereka mengubah persembahan mereka menambahkan perasaan malu serta diaibkan.

(xi) Pada malam 25 Julai 2007 di hadapan dewan selepas Encik G meninggalkan lokasi, Pengurus Pasukan telah berlaku kejam dan sungguh tidak bertimbang rasa terhadap F dan R dengan kata-kata pedas dan hina serta menggertakan dengan memgatakan

- Beliau tidak menerima maaf anak-anak ini mengatakan bahawa anak-anak ini mengambil masa terlalu lama untuk berbuat demikian dengan bertanya kepada mereka “ …dah lama masa yang kamu ada untuk minta ma’af?” (tidak verbatim)- (Pengurus Pasukan bukan nya dewa)

- Kepala anak-anak ini ditanam cip (kerana terlalu mengikut kata-kata Guru silat mereka) – (kata-kata keterlauan)

- Tindakan menukar format persembahan memalukan kontingen WPKL (bersama pegawai tertuduh no. 3 Puan NE) (boleh diperdebatkan)

- jika ikut perasaan beliau, beliau sudah lama lempang anak-anak ini kalau anak-anak ini bukan anak perempuan (Amat salah tingkah laku bagi seorang pendidik – memang kesalahan ketara bagi seorang pendidik untuk berkata sedemikian?

- bahawa anak-anak ini tidak akan diberi sijil penyertaan Kejohanan tersebut disebabkan tidak layak menerimanya (penipuan yang amat ketara - perkara ini bukan dibawah kuasa pengurusan kontingen)

- mengatakan dengan secara menggertak tanpa sijil tersebut anak-anak ini akan menghadapi kesukaran untuk memasuki mana-mana IPTA (penipuan/ gertakan yang amat ketara dan salah– sejak bila kah pengurusan kokirokulum boleh menentukan kemasukan IPTA?)

- Memaksa kedua anak-anak ini mengemaskan bagasi mereka dan berpindah ke bilik kontingen Putrajaya dan balik bersama dengan Kontingen tersebut. Namun selepas itu ia itu lebih kurang pukul 11.30 malam, kesemua pegawai-pegawai, kecuali Encik K dan seorang cikgu lain, telah pergi ke Bilik Nombor 316 di mana F dan R menginap, Pengurus Pasukan telah memaklumkan setelah berbincang dengan guru dari Putrajaya, guru Putrajaya enggan mengambil tanggungjawab untuk kedua-dua anak-anak ini. (Memang Pengurus Pasukan tipu kerana tiada guru Putrajaya mengesahkan perbuatan beliau)

- menuduh bukan sahaja mengatakan silat yang dipelajari oleh anak-anak ini sudah terpesong malah juga menuduh mereka sudah terpesong (Di fahamkan Pengurus Pasukan telah di lucutkan daripada perguruan Silat Gayung Fatani)

- menuduh F memandangnya seperti mahu makan dan tidak menerima penjelasan yang F tidak pernah bermaksud demikian (Besar nya ego si Pengurus Pasukan)

- ingin menghalang kemasukan sekolah-sekolah yang berada di bawah bimbingan Guru Silat anak-anak ini dari menyertai apa-apa pertandingan silat peringkat sekolah ( Menggertakkan lagi masa hadapan anak-anak dalam kegiatan silat mereka)

- Pengurus Pasukan dan Puan NE menggertak akan menelepon ibu bapa ini menghantar surat lapuran kesekolah yang akan menjadi rekod tetap (“laporan ini akan ada untuk selama lamanya tahu?”) – tidak verbatim (Ibu bapa tidak menerima pangilan telefon dan difahamkan tiada laporan dihantarkan kesekolah; mungkin takut apabila khabar bersebar mengatakan ibu bapa akan membawa perkara kelakuan buruk pengurusan ke pihak atasan)

- Dan lain-lain seperti yang terkandong dalam testimoni F dan R

Ini menyebabkan anak-anak ini ketakutan, kebimbungan, malu, merunsing, kecewa dan mengalami tekanan jiwa yang teramat

(xii) Pada lebih kurang pukul 12.00 tengah malam 25 Julai 2007, bertempat di luar bilik F dan R, Pengurus Pasukan yang telah disaksikan oleh kebanyakan pegawai pengurus kontingen telah mengaibkan F dan R dengan memaksa tanpa rela hati untuk menyerahkan semula kelengkapan sukan hak anak-anak ini iaitu ‘track suit’, 2 helai t-shirt, tuala muka ( yang setiap peserta telah dihadiahkan oleh JPWPKL/Kementerian kepada semua peserta kontingen untuk kejohanan tersebut) yang menyebabkan anak-anak ini kecewa, malu dan semakin tertekan. (Menunjukkan Pengurus Pasukan amat kurang ajar merampas hak anak-anak ini)

(xiii) Pada lebih kurang pukul 12 tengahari 26 Julai 2007 di premis Dewan Jubli Perak, Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Pengurus Pasukan telah menuduh anak-anak ini menipu apabila salah seorang guru silat anak-anak ini, Encik A menyahut cabaran Pengurus Pasukan seperti yang telah dinyatakan pada perkara (vii) di atas memyebabkan anak-anak ini keliru, terkejut, kecewa, dianiayai dan tersenggug kerana tergamak Pengurus Pasukan memutarbelitkan, menuduh serta memfitnah mereka berdua.(dikatakan Pengurus Pasukan telah kecut perot, hanya berani tunjuk belang di depan murid-murid tetapi amat takut apabila di cabar)

(xiv) Pada masa yang sama dengan (xiii) di atas, melalui Encik A, semasa Pengurus Pasukan cuba berunding dengan Encik A, Pengurus Pasukan menuduh anak-anak ini telah enggan mengikuti kontingen pergi ke dewan untuk menyokong rakan yang sedang bertanding pada malam hari kedua, 24 Julai 2007 sedangkan beliau telah memberi izin kepada F dan R untuk menjaga seorang peserta sekolah rendah dari kontingen WPKL, bernama Fatihah yang sedang sakit. (Penipuan amat ketara oleh Pengurus Pasukan WPKL – amat jijik perangai beliau)

Ini menyebabkan F dan R merasa dianaiyai kerana fitnah oleh Pengurus Pasukan yang telah memutarbelitkan kebenaran

(xv) Pada lebih kurang pukul 4 petang pada 26 Julai 2007, walau pun tidak secara langsung tetapi ditujukan kepada F dan R di hadapan kontingen, di dalam bas dengan menggunakan mikrofon, Pengurus Pasukan telah menakutkan anak-anak ini dengan mengatakan atau yang membawa maksud ‘Saya sebagai seorang guru tidak pernah mendoakan yang buruk tentang anak murid saya tapi kamu faham-fahamlah doa seorang guru’ menyebabkan anak-anak ini sangat takut, semakin keliru dan kecewa.(Guru jenis apa ini?)

(xvi) Pada lebih kurang pukul 4.30 pagi pada 27 Julai 2007 bertempat di hadapan premis Pusat Kokurikulum Kuala Lumpur di Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, walaupunn secara tidak langsung tetapi ditujukan kepada F dan R di hadapan kontingen, Pengurus Pasukan menakutkan anak-anak ini dengan berkata atau membawa maksud ‘Tak pernah kejadian seperti ini berlaku kepada saya. Saya cuma harapkan Tuhanlah yang membalas pasal semua’ memyebabkan anak-anak ini sangat takut, bingung serta malu yang idak terhinnga (Apakah jenis seorang guru yang menggunakan agama bagi melindung kesilapan / kegagalan beliau?)

(xvii) Akibat daripada apa yang telah dilakukan oleh Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL dan Pengurus Pasukan, F dan R telah mengalami trauma, kecederaan psikologi dan emosi serta tekanan jiwa yang amat teruk, batin mereka terseksa sehingga menghadapi gangguan fikiran, gangguan tidur hingga mengigau, keyakinan dan harga diri yang merundum, sukar mengulangkaji pelajaran kerana diaibkan, dimalukan, ditakutkan, digertak, dituduh, difitnah, diperlekeh serta sikap Pengurus Pasukan dan Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL yang pilih kasih dan tidak adil

(xviii) Akibat daripada perbuatan Pengurus Pansukan dan Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL, mereka dan juga hampir semua pegawai kontingen telah gagal menjalankan tanggungjawab yang diserahkan oleh Jabatan Pelajaran Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur (WPKL) kepada mereka untuk menjaga kebajikan F dan R dengan sewajarnya sebagai pelajar-pelajar yang telah mewakili kontingen WPKL untuk Kejohanan Silat Sekolah-Sekolah Malaysia dan Jemputan Antarabangsa 2007

(xix) Akibat daripada perbuatan dan sikap yang telah mengaibkan dan menjatuhkan maruah F dan R, Pengurus Pasukan dan Pengerusi Teknik telah mengakibatkan hampir semua pegawai dan peserta kontingen terpengaruh dan hilang hormat serta memulau F dan R

(xx) Akibat daripada perbuatan Pengurus Pasukan dan Pengerusi Teknik JPWPKL, pegawai-pegawai telah gagal mengambil tindakan sewajarnya untuk mengawal serta membiarkan beberapa pelajar yang belum matang dan mudah terpengaruh, menyanyikan dengan kuat lagu sorak yang direka oleh Cikgu Ali bertujuan untuk mencemuh, mengejek, dengan cara tidak langsung, tetapi jelas ditujukan kepada F dan R, yang telah menyebabkan jiwa dan rohani F dan R merasa begitu tertekan dan malu

(xxi) Gagal selaku pendidik untuk menunjukkan contoh dan tauladan yang baik

(xxii) Gagal menjalankan tugas mereka dengan telus, bijaksana dan profesional, menyalahguna kuasa serta gagal mengurus kontingen dengan cekap sehingga menyebabkan F dan R ditindas sewenang-wenang dan menjadi mangsa keadaan

Walaupun ibu bapa membuat aduan khusus terhadap dua pegawai tersebut, terdapat juga guru-guru lain (terutamanya Puan NE) selaku pegawai-pegawai yang menyertai kontingen WPKL yang turut bersama memulau anak-anak ini dan ada yang membuat komen kedua-dua anak-anak ini seolah-olah telah membelot kerana membuat penukaran dalam persembahan mereka. Mereka boleh dikatakan turut bersubahat mencederakan anak-anak ini dari segi emosi, mental dan psikologi.

F dan R amat bingung dan terkejut dengan reaksi dan sikap yang ditunjukkan oleh pegawai-pegawai kontingen. Keyakinan mereka terhadap pegawai- pegawai begitu terjejas sekali daripada hari pettama lagi reaksi dan begitu negative sehingga mempengaruhi semua rakan-rakan sepasukan dan telah bersama-sama memulau F dan R. Pastinya anak-anak ini amat kecewa; pegawai-pegawai kontingen yang sepatutnya boleh diharapkan, dihormati dan dipercayai untuk menjaga mereka terutama ketika dalam keadaan genting atau bila ada kemusykilan telah menunjukkan reaksi sebalik nya.

3.3 Perasaan Sedih Ibu Bapa

Perbuatan tidak bertanggung jawab pegawai-pegawai ini menyebabkan trauma begitu dasyat sekali keatas anak-anak ini tetapi mereka tidak pernah memberitahu ibu bapa apa yang sedia berlaku sehingga mereka tidak tertahan lagi menanggung baban perasaan selepas disoal siat pada malam selepas bertanding. Mereka menangis ketakutan bukan saja dengan apa yang berlaku tetapi juga kerana runsing apakah reaksi ibu bapa terhadap mereka kerana takut dimarahi juga.

Apabila ibu bapa F diberitahu melalui telepon pada lebih kurang 1 pagi, 26 Julai 2007 mengenai kejadian-kejadian tersebut, bapa F naik marah dan mahu anak-anak ini pulang secepat mungkin dengan kapal terbang; tidak perlu tunggu sehingga selesainya kejohanan dan pulang dengan menaiki bas bersama kontingen WPKL kerana psati anak-anak ini akan terus dianaiyai oleh pegawai-pegawai yang berperangai biadap ini. Bagaimanapun, setelah dipujuk isteri dan lain-lain pihak supaya bersabar dan bertenang, bapa F pun benarkan F pulang bersama kontingen WPKL.

Tetapi hati bapa F amat gelisah, rasa kurang senang sehingga tidak dapat tidur malam/ pagi itu menantikan kepulangan anak nya. Amat betul firasat bapa F apabila diberitahu kedua-dua F dan R bahawa mereka terus diperkecilkan dan diejek oleh beberapa pelajar-pelajar dalam kontingen WPKL semasa menuju ke bas untuk pulang ke Kuala Lumpur. Pegawai-pegawai tersebut ada bersama pada waktu kejadian itu dan membiarkan perkara itu berlaku. Setibanya di Pusat Kokurikulum, Pengurus Pasukan masih lagi sempat memperli mereka sebelum ibu Fiqah sampai untuk mengambil anak-anak ini.

Semasa di Kota Bharu pada petang 26 Julai 2007, Pengurus Pasukan boleh berkata atau membawa maksud ‘Saya yang sebagai seorang guru tidak pernah mendoakan yang buruk tentang anak murid saya tapi kamu faham-fahamlah doa seorang guru’. Semasa sampai di Pusat Kokurikulum pula pada pagi 27 Julai 2007, beliau sempat berkata kepada anak-anak ini ‘Tak pernah kejadian seperti ini berlaku kepada saya. Saya cuma harapkan Tuhanlah yang membalas’.

Dengan mudah beliau membuat kenyataan begitu seolah-olah Pengurus Pasukan yang menjadi mangsa. Beliau harus sedar perbuatan beliau dan pegawai-pegawai lain yang telah mempengaruhi hampir seluruh kontingen merupakan pengalaman yang paling pahit untuk kedua-dua anak remaja ini yang belum lagi faham dan terdedah dengan asam garam kehidupan.

Ibu F sungguh terkejut bagaimana seorang dewasa yang merupakan seorang guru sanggup menggunakan agama untuk menakutkan anak beliau dan sahabatnya. Untuk mententeramkan jiwa anak-anak ini bapa F menasihatkan bahawa ‘the truth will prevail’, doa orang yang dianiaya dan doa seorang ibu akan lebih dikabulkan Allah, bahawa Allah menduga mereka kerana mahu meningkatkan mertabat mereka maka sama-sama kita mendoakan perkara yang benar akan keluar di sebalik musibah yang berlaku.

IBU BAPA TIDAK RELA DAN TIDAK BOLEH MEMAAFKAN PERBUATAN KEJAM YANG DILAKUKAN OLEH PEGAWAI-PEGAWAI TERSEBUT KE ATAS F DAN R.

Bayangkan perasaan tuan sendiri sekiranya anak tuan diperlakukan dan di perlekehkan sebegini. Adakah Tuan akan berdiam diri? Ini melibatkan maruah anak anak ini, oleh itu maruah sebagai ibu bapanya. F dan R memberitahu mereka rasa sungguh terseksa dengan perbuatan pegawai-pegawai dan juga beberapa pelajar dalam kontingen tetapi tetap bersabar dan hanya berdiam diri. Mereka yakin sekiranya ini berlaku kepada pelajar lain terutama pelajar lelaki, pasti pelajar itu akan melawan atau bertindak balas.

Dengan perasaan amat sedih, Ibu bapa F telah membuat aduan kepada JPWPKL untuk mengambil tindakan terhadap Pengurus Pasukan dan Pengerusi Teknik (kemudian nya Puan NE dinamakan sebagai pegawai ketiga yang terlibat)

Bahagian 4 yang akan menyusul kemudian hari, Insya ‘Allah, akan mengulaskan mengenai tuntutan tindakan serta kisah surat menyurat antara ibu bapa F dengan JPWPKL.

THE BAR COUNCIL'S SOCIAL CONTRACT FORUM

2008-06-28T20:43:00.000-07:00

My take is as follows:

The Malaysian Bar Council’s interference/ involvement in the country’s politics should be neutralized, after which if failed the Government should proceed with the next alternative mission – seek and destroy …….oops better still annihilate. We have now Hyde Parks organized the MBC.

The promiscuous behavior of the MBC should be left to the defecto law minister to handle. If Zaid Ibrahim is not being able to so within the month due to his close associated with MBC, he should resign and be replaced a hard liner. Similarly, PM should with immediate effect pronounce the death of all his reforms which have directly and indirectly have contributed MBC (read as its errant members) and their kind to have caused all the political uncertainty otherwise he will share the same fate with Zaid. UMNO cannot remain silent instead UMNO should demonstrate its radical stand, no more pussy, pussy talk. Enough is enough; blaze away the smoke screen of political MBC! So thumbs up for Muhyidin Yasin who wants the Home Ministry to disallow open forums discussing the social contract and Ketuanan Melayu.

The MBC should also be neutralized from inside i.e by its members who do not subscribe to its promiscuous behavior on such issues as Malay Rights and Islam in relation to those provisions enshrined in the constitution by aggravating the organization. I agree with Dr Mohd Ali Rustam and Hishammuddin Tun Hussein stand as per Utusan Melayu. Other legal (law) organizations and Malay based NGO should also come forward to suppress MBC.

If MBC is being politicized by its members, there is no reason for the MBC not be neutralized politically from within and outside MBC. Interference/ pressure from foreign elements and the political based parties promoting Malaysian Malaysia or Ketuanan Rakyat would be enormous, so what, when the Melayu and their rights are being questioned derogatory and repeatedly causing insult, despise and hatred. Thus the need of Malays NGO’s and MSM and alternative media to come forward and blow up the issue. Funny I could find any write up on this in Sunday Times, for sure under Kali the paper has lost its priority covering instead “Khairy eyes top Youth post”= Bull shit!

I lost my temper in reading Star’s comment on the discussion:

Ms. Pundekcherry has wrongly interpreted “the notion of ketuanan Melayu, advanced by certain groups in Umno to give credence to their view that it is the only party able to protect Malay interests, had been shattered on March 8.” On that date to me and many others, it was PM and his SIL who were shattered. The Malays can be united again easily under Ketuanan Melayu the moment those two are replaced. So guys, any one wants her cherry up for grabs?

Mr Kua sees only from his prospective of Malaysian Malaysia, let him believe in his fantasy world; he and his type will never endorse Malaysia for what it is today.

Tommy Thomas has a short memory when he suggested that “the March 8 election results showed that voters had had enough of Umno's uninterrupted power over the years”. What about in the GE 11 results just past 4 years before then? The main difference being PM, SIL and 1^st family decimated BN and UMNO; Tommy need not be discrete about his love for PM to stay longer in office to ensure credence to his believes! Whose corporate work are you legally advising now, Tommy?

I support Dr Farish remarking “It is UMNO that thinks if there is no UMNO, Malays will die. But we have seen that even without UMNO, Malays continue to live.” I would not disagree with Dr. Farish but with a different perspective “UMNO is just a party whose strength depends on the members sharing its ideals and visions”. PM has failed to just do that in his blindness to leave a legacy of nepotism and cronyism albeit the 1^st family’s plundering while clamoring “support the President, not UMNO”.

It should be noted that Dr Farish and Thomas shared the belief that “the social contract was real and was redeemable, even as it was being constantly challenged, re-interpreted, revised and recontextualised”. However, Dr Farish said the entry of religion into politics had put a strain on the social contract.

Irrespective to Dr Farish remarks, I would believe that if any changes to the social contract, it is the Malays through UMNO to decide what and when (as purported by Mukhriz) and I don’t see it coming during my lifetime for inequality will always exist, every where and every moment for Man to submit to His Will lest the world will come to an end; that’s Allah’s decree.

THE WORD ALLAH: PART 5 RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

2008-06-27T08:49:00.000-07:00

In addition to the the Federal Territory Islamic Council and Perak Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Councils’ intervention in the court case on the use of the word "Allah" in the Catholic Herald, the Penang and Terengganu Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Councils have now joined the band wagon making the total interveners as 4.

KUALA LUMPUR: Two more state Islamic councils have applied to intervene in a court case on the use of the word "Allah" in a Catholic weekly. The applications by the Penang and Terengganu Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Councils were filed at the High Court yesterday by Messrs Zainul Rijal Talha & Amir. NST 27/6/08

As an Islamic political party, PAS should also seek its intervention in the case. This would then confirm there is indeed no dispute among the UMMAH in Malaysia in respect of this matter. Earlier a Pas assembly man upon he visiting a church upon his rejoice in having won in the election, confirm that word as used by the Arab non-Muslims. (See http://themalaysianinsider.com/mni/the-day-catholics-welcomed-a-man-from-pas-in-shah-alam.htm) I would appeal to the PAS hierarchy to be in unison on this grave matter and make its appropriate stand without further delay.

We had last week (15/6/ 08) heard the Sultan of Perak pronouncing that religious Issues should not be tested to a level which will disrupt peace and harmony Islam promotes its believers to respect other religions and not to be enemies with the followers of other religions so long as the sanctity of Islam is not ridiculed and the rights of its Ummah are not violated.

In a related development, Chief Justice Tun Abdul Hamid said in interpreting the Constitution, “one should do so in the spirit in which the document was promulgated and we respect the principles of constitutional interpretation, the universal human values, human rights and obligations and views of judges from other jurisdictions". "But we should not forget our own history and local circumstances," he added.

He said outsiders and even the younger Malaysians only read the cold print with theories and precedents from courts in other countries at the back of their minds. "And they start questioning the fairness of those provisions. They compare the Malaysian Constitution with the constitutions of other countries that do not have provisions which declare equality for all or any 'discretionary' provisions."

"Those specific provisions (the position of Malays Rulers, the Malay privileges, the religion of the Federation, the head of the Islamic religion in the states, the national language, the Malay Regiment, Malay Reserve Land, among others) are the remains left after the bargain."

In this country, the word Allah is so integral to the Muslim faith that’s its use by other faiths in printed form would cause great anxiety, tribulations, despise etc even if such print is imported from neighboring Indonesia. As it is the Agong’s/ Sultan’s absolute jurisdiction on Islamic religious affairs as per our constitution, it would be best that the Roman Catholic Church stops pursuing the judicial review on the word Allah rather than have a head on conflict.

PERTANDINGAN SILAT SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH MALAYSIA –BAHAGIAN 2

BAHAGIAN 2 – Berlakunya perbuatan ‘Memilih Bulu’ di Pertandingan Peringkat Silat Sekolah-Sekolah WPKL 2007

(dipetik daripada Bahagian 7 Laporan Aduan Ibu Bapa kepada Jabatan Pelajaran WPKL bertarikh 13 Ogos 2007 )

Keraguan Kemenangan Anugerah Sekolah Puteri Terbaik, Pertandingan Silat Peringkat Sekolah-Sekolah WPKL 2007

SMK SBU berjaya merangkul jumlah terbanyak di Pertandingan Silat Peringkat Sekolah-Sekolah WPKL Bahagian Puteri, iaitu sebanyak 3 pingat emas dan 1 pingat perak di mana seorong pesilat puteri bernama F telah memenangi 1 pingat emas Kategori Silat Olahraga, 1 pingat emas yang dimenangi bersama pesilat R untuk Silat Seni Tempur, 1 pingat perak untuk Silat Olahraga Kategori B yang dimenangi oleh pesilat R manakala seorang lagi pesilat SBU mendapat pingat emas untuk Silat Olahraga Kategori C.

SMK SBU tidak dipilih menerima Anugerah Sekolah Terbaik Kategori Puteri Sekolah Menengah .kerana kemenangan dalam kategori Silat Olahraga (di mana SBU mendapat 2 emas dan 1 perak selain ) kononnya tidak diambil kira. Pelik betul! Adalah difahamkan pula di peringkat Negeri Selangor dan di peringkat KSSMJA 2007, penentuan juara bagi Anugerah Sekolah/Kontingen Terbaik mengambil kira kesemua kategori silat yang dipertandingkan.

Peristiwa Anugerah SMPT merupakan peristiwa permulaan yang menyebabkan anak-anak ini mula terasa terjejasnya harapan dan usaha gigih mengenai aspirasi mereka dalam silat sejak setahun kebelakangan. F dan R tetap berlatih dengan penuh semangat walaupun bingung, merasa sangsi dan begitu kecewa anugerah tersebut diberi kepada sekolah lain yang telah memenangi hanya 1 emas dan 1 perak.

Keraguan Pemilihan dan tidak ada ketulusan ( sebagai peserta Silat Olahraga PuteriKategori A Peringkat Kebangsaan)

Peristiwa kedua yang pahit, yang telah memilukan hati dan jiwa F ialah apabila Pengerusi Teknik WPKL memberitahu F dengan disaksikan R, F akan hanya mengambil bahagian dalam acara Seni Tempur Silat. Ini berlaku pada hari kedua latihan iaitu pada 10 Julai 2007 waktu makan tengah hari di Pusat Kokurikulum Kuala Lumpur sedangkan pada hari pertama Encik K mengatakan F akan juga mewakili untuk Silat Olahraga Kategori A.

Pesilat F telah menjuarai Silat Olahraga Puteri WPKL dua tahun berturut-turut. Ini jelas menunjukkan F mempunyai bakat dalam Silat Olahraga dan Guru Silat F sendiri berpendapat yang F berbakat besar dan antara pelajar yang terbaik dibawahnya.

F begitu kecewa, merasa beliau teraniaya tetapi hanya mampu berdiam diri mengenangkan segala kerja keras dan pengorbanan beliau untuk mencapai matlamat Visi Silat beliau untuk bertanding acara tersebut hancur berderai sama sekali, dimusnahkan bukan kerana kalah tetapi kehendak Pengerusi Teknik WPKL

Tetapi sebagai seorang murid yang berwiba dan patuh kepada perintah sebagaimana dilatih dibawah perguruan Encik N, beliau menerima keputusan tersebut dengan tabah dan tetap bersemangat untuk melakukan yang terbaik untuk acara yang beliau bertanding.

Sebab-Sebab Yang Diberi Kerana F Tidak terpilih.

F telah diberitahu oleh Encik K, Pengerusi Teknik WPKL bahawa pemilihan tersebut telah dibuat setelah berbincang dengan pegawai-pegawai Jawatankuasa lain.

Mengikut Encik K:

i) Beliau mendapat jadual yang menunjukkan kedua-dua pertandingan Silat Olahraga dan Seni Silat Tempur akan berjalan serentak.

ii) Beliau mahu F fokus secara sepenuhnya terhadap Seni Silat Tempur

iii) F mungkin mengalami kecederaan jika bertanding dalam Silat Olahraga yang akan menjejaskan prestasi F untuk acara Seni Silat Tempur.

F tidak diberi peluang mempertikaikan keputusan mengapa beliau tidak boleh bertanding untuk Silat Olahraga Puteri Kebangsaan. F sebagai seorang yang lurus amat tidak puas hati kerana sekali lagi keputusan yang dibuat tidak adil dan memcurigakan.Beliau terpaksa akur dengan keputusan tersebut under duress and disinformation (‘SPIN’).

Apa yang jelas berlaku di Kejohanan Kebangsaan di Kota Bahru ialah pertandingan kategori Seni Silat Tempur diadakan pada hari terakhir selepas selesainya pertandingan Silat Olahraga, tidak seperti yang dikatakan Pengerusi Teknik.

Adakah ada peraturan yang melarang seorang peserta mengambil bahagian dalam dua acara? Kami juga di fahamkan sekiranya benar jadual pertandingan menunjukkan kedua-dua kategori itu dijalankan serentak, ia boleh diubahsuai supaya jadualnya tidak bertindih. Secara kebetulan, seorang pesilat daripada SMK Wangsa Maju S2 yang memenangi 2 acara Seni Silat telah dibenarkan mewakili kedua-dua acara dikejohanan SSM 07. Ibu kepada pesilat seni ini merupai seorang juulatih serta antara 3 pegawai yang terlibat.

Penjelasan Pengerusi Teknik yang beliau mahu F fokus kepada satu acara sahaja dan tidak mahu beliau cedera bertanding dalam acara Silat Olahraga yang akan memberi kesan kepada prestasinya untuk acara Silat Seni, tidak boleh diterima. Kecederaan boleh berlaku di mana-mana dan pada bila-bila masa sahaja dan kita sepatutnya berani menghadapi risiko jika kita mahu jadi yang terbaik.

Adakah ini keputusan yang bijak oleh jawatankuasa pemilihan dengan mengenepikan kemampuan F kecuali sekiranya ada agenda tertentu memang disengajakan supaya F tidak diberi peluang untuk bertanding dalam acara tersebut? Encik K langsung tidak mahu menerima apa-apa penjelasan daripada ‘anak murid’ nya.

Perlantikan Pengganti Tempat Peserta Silat Olahraga

Anehnya, pelajar yang mengambil alih tempat F untuk Silat Olahraga Puteri bukannya pemenang kedua atau ketiga kategori beliau tetapi pemenang ketiga kategori lain iaitu daripada kategori B iaitu NA. R pun telah mengalahkan NA pada pertandingan kategori B tahun ini tetapi mengapa beliau juga tidak dipilih. R pun mula berperasaan silu, adakah beliau tidak diplih kerana beliau bukan Melayu?

NA telah beberapa kali memberitahu kepada mereka dan kawan-kawan sepejuangan berita-berita keputusan Jawatankuasa WPKL sebelum keputusan tersebut dimaklumkan.

Rasional Tidak Melantik F

Encik K, PENGERUSI TEKNIK WPKL patut lebih peka akan kemampuan, prestasi dan melihat rekod pencapaian setiap peserta yang di pilih.

Bagaimanakah Pengurusi Teknik WPKL boleh memutuskan F tidak boleh bertanding untuk acara Silat Olahraga Puteri Kebangsaan Kategori A sedangkan beliau adalah “the undisputed champion for two years running”??

Menurut Guru Silat F, setelah melihat pertanding Kejohanan Kebangsaan, kebolehan setanding kalau tidak lebih baik daripada juara yang memenang acara itu.

Kontingen WPKL hanya memenangi 2 gangsa daripada lebih kurang 45 pingat yang dipertanding.

KESIMPULAN

Kita hanya boleh bayangkan kekecewaan seorang anak melayu yang begitu hampa cita-cita murninya dengan mudah dipatahkan oleh pegawai-pegawai yang telah menafikan hak beliau tetapi kita tidak boleh merasa bagaimana jiwa F merana kesan daripada perbuatan khianat kepada Bangsa Melayu sendiri; angkara daripada Pengerusi Teknik WPKL yang pilih bulu serta dan dengan angkuhnya melaungkan “Saya boleh tukar markah pertandingan”.

Bahagian 3, yang akan menyusul minggu depan, akan mencerita dengan telitinya peristiwa yang amat pahit yang F dan R telah mengalami diKota Bahru semasa SSM 07. Perasaan serta pendapat ibu bapa atas kecurigaan pengurusan kontingen JPWPKL juga akan dihuraikan

PERTANDINGAN SILAT SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH MALAYSIA

BAHAGIAN 1

PEGAWAI BERPILIHAN BULU MASIH TUALANGI SILAT JPWPKL & SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH MALAYSIA 2008?

MENGAPA HARUS PEGAWAI-PEGAWAI TERTENTU YANG MEMBUAT KEPUTUSAN “PILIH BULU” DIBIARKAN MENGURUS PERTANDINGAN SILAT SEKOLAH-SEKOLAH 2008 TANPA DITEGAH?

Pada Pertandingan Silat Sekolah-Sekolah JPEPKL 2007, perbuatan pilih bulu berikut telah berlaku:

Anugerah Sekolah Menengah Perempuan Terbaik (‘SMPT’) 2007 - Sekolah(A) yang telah menangi 3 emas dan1 perak tidak dipilih memenangi SMPT tetapi sekolah (B) yang hanya memenangi 1 emas dan perak telah memenangi anugerah tersebut.

Wakil Acara Silat Olahraga Kategori A di Kejohanan SSM 2007 di Kota Bahru Kelantan (SSM 2007) -Pemenang kategori A Silat Olahraga (daripada Sekolah A) yang dua tahun berturut-turat (2006&2007) dan MEMEGANG tali hitam ditipu habis-habisan supaya tidak mewakili JPWPKL di SSM 2007 untuk kategori tersebut. Sebaliknya seorang pesilat yang hanya memenangi tempat ketiga dan daripada kategori lain pula iaitu kategori B dan kurang berkelayakan.

Keputusan rasmi Kejohanan Silat Puteri JPWPKL 2007 (18-21 Jun 2007) disiarkan dibawah.

Nota: i) Secara kebetulannya, Sekolah B lelaki telah juga memenangi Anugerah SMPT (Putera) 2007

ii) Seorang pesilat lelaki di sekolah B yang memenangi dua kategori telah dibenakan bertanding di SSM 2007 tetapi pesilat Puteri yang tersebut di memenangi dua ketegori hanya dibenarkan mewakili hanya silat tempur bersama kawan beliau.

Di SSM 2007, dua pesilat Acara Silat Tempur kategori puteri dari Kontingen JPWPKL telah secara konsisten dihina (silat mereka dikatakan silat gila dll),di ugut (dilaporkan ke sekolah supaya rekod mereka akan rosak selamanya dll), dipinggirkan, disindir serta ditindas dengan perbuatan lain yang keterlaluan (termasuk merampas kelengkapan sukan mereka dan duit gambar) dll sehingga kedua pesilat mengelami penderitaan emosi, mental and psikologi tanpa belas kasihan sedangkan kedua pesilat tersebut akan mengambil peperiksaan SPM 3 bulan kemudian..

Di mana laungan “Silat Untuk Semua”? Dimanakah Aspirasi Pembanguanan Sumber seperti yang dinyatakan dibawah Polisi Pendidikan Kebangsaan, yang nyata adalah laungan angkuh seorong pegawai “Saya boleh tukar markah pertandingan”!!!

Walaupun laporan dibuat kepada Jabatan Pendidikan WPKL/ Kementerian Pendidekan tetapi tiada tindakan diambil ke atas 3 orang pegawai yang tertentu. Apakah pegawai pegawai yang bersikap angkuh dan tidak ada integriti begini patut dibiarkan terus berkhidmat ???

Untuk Bahagian 2 cerita benar ini yang dipenuhi dengan maklumat lanjut/ terperinci, sila layar dilaman ini esok hari. Amat sedih ceritanya!

Akan Berlakukah Semula Penipuan/ Berpilihan Bulu Dikejohanan Silat 2008?

“Religious Issues should not be tested” but will the community adhere?

2008-06-25T18:13:00.000-07:00

“Isu agama jangan diuji, titah Sultan Perak (Religious Issues should not be tested, pronounced Sultan Perak)”

Sultan Perak Sultan Azlan Shah Selasa mengingatkan rakyat supaya isu berkaitan agama tidak diuji dan dicabar hingga ke peringkat yang boleh menimbulkan kegelisahan.Menurut baginda, ketenteraman awam boleh terjejas dan perang saudara boleh tercetus kerana perkara mengenai agama sangat sensitif dan menyentuh emosi."Islam menganjur umatnya untuk menghormati agama lain dan tidak bermusuh dengan penganut agama lain selagi kemuliaan Islam tidak dipersenda, selagi Islam tidak dihina dan selagi hak umat Islam tidak dicerobohi," titah baginda ketika merasmikan pembukaan persidangan Dewan Undangan Negeri Perak di Ipoh. Agenda daily 24/6/08

I would believe that certain elements of the community will definitely not abide the Sultan’s pronouncement on Islam as enlightened below:

The Catholic Church – the prime promoter of the usage of the word Allah by non-Muslims in Malaysia. The endeavors of this international centuries old organization backed with its enormous wealth is well acknowledged..
The US administration’s Bureau for Democracy and Global Affairs in reviewing and promoting religious tolerances under the guise of greater freedom and liberty irrespectively if their interference causes social instability.
The Malaysian Bar Council and human rights activists promoting the international slogan of “freedom to practice one’s own religion” without limits.
The DAP with their concept of equality under Malaysian Malaysia
Other religious groups concern about their well being of their followers and feels under threat.

This is indeed an old theme but has taken a new phase by these certain elements made brave by the promised reforms of flexibilities and tolerances for the minorities. Fortunately more and more Muslims organizations and individuals are already aware of the possible dangerous consequences from the actions of certain of these elements and are watching the developments cautiously. They are indeed happy of such pronouncement by the Sultan and the state religious councils’ efforts and intervention to address the predicament.

I hope the Sultan’s pronouncement be adhered to for the sake of the peace and tranquility of our beloved multi-racial and religious nation. This is Malaysia, unique with its own culture and norms, where the majority is Muslims and we have live in peace and harmony for the good many years; we should not be unnecessarily cowed by international pressure under the guise of human rights and religious tolerances.

This subject has been more specifically addressed in many of my earlier postings.

ARE RPK AND HIS STATUTORY DECLARATION GOOD?

2008-06-25T06:57:00.000-07:00

When news of the “explosive” Raja Petra SD came out, I had a quick check with my friends and family members who are sensitive about the current political scenario but are not bloggers. Their general perception was while the news of the SD was considered explosive, they doubt the truth since RPK has not been honest in several past instances. Might as well Rosmah had brought her entire entourage to witness the murder! RPK is politically motivated as he is assumed to front for the desperate DSAI. RPK’s popularity is confined to the sphere of bloggers especially his popular Malaysian Today blog and politically inclined opportunists.

On my part, the SD is just another timely ploy to blacken Najib’s prospects to take over from PM in conjunction with other efforts to create political instability. The penalty from such an SD is nothing compared to the massive exposure it had received; very well anticipated and articulated to damage one’s reputation under the hypocrisy of national interest. The SD is from a well known person who was not present at the scene but merely relying on deemed reliable information from an informer. Funny that the news did not originate from Malaysia today; perhaps RPK had carefully taken the precaution for the news of the SD to appear first on other blogs/ websites and not his, otherwise Malaysia Today might be forced to close down when the truth of the matter is revealed following police investigation.

In respect of KJ who came out first on his comment on the SD, he is nothing but a young punk without any credibility to be a politician; he speaks like a big jar while his brain is nothing more than an elephant. What to do when KJ only compares himself with his father-in –law; KJ desperately wants to redeem his battered image for the forthcoming UMNO election!!

Now PM, Najib and Rosmah have came out denying the allegations in the SD. We wait for the response from the rest of those names implicated in the SD.

My conclusion: RPK has endangered his good name and that of bloggers by his selfish motivations.

ZAID IBRAHIM, PM’S COURT JESTER.

2008-06-25T06:43:00.000-07:00

This is what I commented at a blog which published that each of the ex-justices received RM1.5M each of ex-gratia payment.

KARUT……..that’s all the ex-gratia payments are about, abusing the rakyat’s money and resources!

Zaid had made one of his biggest blunders when he exhumed the Tun Salleh case, all in the name of judiciary reform. When the truth came out about the other side of Tun Salleh’s character, the prominent role played by the Agong then and the refusal by the AG to apologize on the matter, suddenly Zaid must have realized what a fool he made of himself and PM. A fool as he is, he dared not acknowledge that he could have been wrong in this exhumation and so he proceeded with his gesture on the ex-gratia payment to appease a tiny section of the population namely the Malaysian Bar Council, the Opposition leaders and human rights activists and of course within PM’s inner circle. The money from the ex-gratia did not come from his pocket, so he doesn’t give a damn so long he got some publicity. Zaid refused to realize that the bulk of the Silent Majority could see his true colors, rather he wish to live in his own world of fantasy.

Zaid has done too much SPIN, wasting the rakyat’s resources and endangering the rakyat’s future with his foolish populist cum liberal legal reforms especially at this point in time of grave political and economic uncertainties. The most honorable act for him is to reimburse from his own pocket all payments made relating to the ex-gratia payment and leave the cabinet soonest.

WHAT’S ALL THIS STUPID COVERAGE ON SIL?

2008-06-22T18:02:00.000-07:00

1 Khairy may face challenge in Rembau Youth UMNO

SEREMBAN, June 23 ─ Rembau Umno Youth division chief Khairy Jamaluddin may face a challenge at the divisional youth delegates' meeting in October.

A committee member of the Youth division, Azman Mohd Sah, yesterday offered himself to contest for the post.

So what’s the big deal? To demonstrate that UMNO Rembau is alive and striving with democracy? We all still remember he won the deputy UMNO youth post uncontested and just scrapped through the Rembau parliamentary constituency even with so much money politics.

2 Akuan Bersumpah Raja Petra: Khairy Rujuk kepada peguam nya

Naib Ketua Pemuda UMNO Malaysia. Khairy Jamaluddin menegaskan beliau akan merujuk terlebih dahulu kepada peguamnya berhubung dengan Akuan Bersumpah yang dibuat oleh pengendali laman Malaysia Today, Raja Petra Kamaruddin mendakwa bahawa beliau ada menyimpan laporan bertulis mengatakan isteri Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor berada di lokasi pembunuhan warga Mongolia, Altantuya Shariibu pada malam 9 Oktober 2006.Menurut Khairy, disebabkan perkara itu mempunyai implikasi undang-undang maka beliau perlu berbincang dahulu dengan peguamnya. Agenda Daily 22/6/08

None of those named in the statutory declaration have yet to give their comment, not even his father-in –law. If the relevant case maybe sub-prejudiced and the police have started investigations, why open his gap? To show his’ such a smart ass, more powerful than PM and confirms he calls the shots! SICK, SICK, SICK governance

Cops to probe RPK’s claims

By LOURDES CHARLES (Star Monday June 23, 2008)

KUALA LUMPUR: Police will be calling up Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamaruddin to investigate allegations in his recent statutory declaration on purported facts related to the murder of Altantuya .Shaariibuu. Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said the three individuals named in the document filed on June 18 would also be called up.

3 KJ : Anwar Offering Yong DPM's Post?

KOTA BAHARU, June 20 (Bernama) -- Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) president Datuk Yong Teck Lee's declaration that his party has lost confidence in Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi is believed due to him being taken in by former deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's offer.
Umno Youth vice chief Khairy Jamaluddin said he was made to understand that Yong would be appointed to the number two post in government if Anwar was to be Prime Minister.

What’s his portfolio to make such remarks? Is it just because he is SIL to PM and therefore has been privy to all national strategic issues since he married PM’s daughter and therefore the appointed appropriate spokesman and/ or what else?

There are many, many more news coverage (which I too fed up to list out) in MSM and alternative media most recently on this one undeserving person whom many squarely put the blame for BN’s poor performance at the last election. He just doesn’t realize that the more he talks (nonsense) and portrays himself out in public, the more difficult it is for BN to breach the gap with the lost electorates.

This SIL cannot be “pakai” anymore; he’s such an enormous liability to UMNO and BN and therefore he should completely disappear from the political scene for the interest of the Nation.

THE MUFTI OF PERLIS: TO JOIN PKR?

2008-06-22T03:43:00.000-07:00

KOTA BAHARU, 22 Jun (Bernama) — Mufti Perlis Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin menafikan sekeras-kerasnya dakwaan bahawa beliau telahpun menyertai Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR).

Beliau berkata buat masa ini belum terlintas di hatinya untuk menyertai mana-mana parti politik, sebaliknya beliau mahu menjadi seorang yang merdeka tanpa terikat dengan mana-mana parti politik

Beliau menolak sama sekali penyertaannya pada majlis itu sebagai menyokong parti yang dipimpin oleh Pakatan Rakyat (PR) dan menentang kerajaan pusat.

“Tidak begitu, tetapi kehadiran saya sebagai memenuhi undangan dan memberi sebuah pandangan yang bebas dan tidak menyokong mana-mana pihak,” katanya.

Bagaimanapun beliau tidak menolak ada menyokong beberapa dasar yang dilaksanakan oleh parti tertentu tetapi tidak menafikan kembali menentang pada perkara lain.

Why should he, just because he admitted he supported some policies of a certain party (PKR) and opposed other policies as well?

If he were to join any political party, it would be more likely be either PAS or UMNO.

PKR is too secular; its Muslim key political leaders are promoting too socialist or modern brand of Islam which have no place in this country. What more, its adviser DSAI, is seen so closely associated with the US administration and other western powers that Muslims ridicule when he was considered a devout Muslim by them. Its non-Muslim leaders on the other hand, affiliated/ associated with international human rights philosophies, are seen to be an imminent danger to the Islamic religion, fundamentals and practices. PKR association with the DAP is also a real killer for obvious reasons.

PKR is viewed as a opportunist political party but one which cannot promote and expand Islam in this country; PKR appears to have hoodwinked Muslims/ Malays who are unsatisfied or angry with the abuse and plundering of the Nation’s wealth by certain leaders and their families. PKR has yet to come forward with concrete ideas and plans to promote and develop Islam in this country. For this reason, PKR although it members are majority Malays, cannot champion Malay rights and interests; its present “strong” position have been contributed by protest votes against certain elements of the current administration. I would believe that once the weak leadership of UNNO is replaced from within, the likely hood for PKR’s strength to quickly diminish as Malaysians will desert them at the next election.

PAS and UMNO on the other hand are seen to be parties capable to deliver the best interest of the Malays and interests. If a party cannot represent and deliver the interest of the Muslims, it has no place with the Malays. Only Muslims (defined as those who submit to the will of Allah) would understand how dear Allah and Islam is to them. Muslims understand their responsibilities to non-Muslims in maintaining peace and tranquility in this multi-racial and religus beloved country of ours.

I would believe that’s one of the bases of the Mufti’s position.

End.

A RIGHT DIRECTION FOR THE BENEFIT OF MUSLIM WOMEN IN MALAYSIA

2008-06-21T04:21:00.000-07:00

Quote & Unquote NST 21/6/08

PUTRAJAYA: The prime minister has agreed to the formation of a secretariat for Muslim women's affairs to look after the interests of this group, especially concerning the implementation of the syariah.

The secretariat will be based at the office of Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, who is the women's development and social affairs adviser to the prime minister.

Shahrizat is also chairman of the secretariat, which is under the patronage of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.

Shahrizat said a secretariat with direct support from the prime minister would give more prominence to Muslim women's affairs and the problems they faced.

"The secretariat will take up their problems such as those they face in the Syariah courts involving divorce, custody of children and division of assets," Shahrizat said at a press conference that followed a dialogue between 215 participants from 76 Muslim women non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and the prime minister.

Abdullah did not attend the press conference and Shahrizat said she had been asked to announce the formation of the secretariat on his behalf.

She said the secretariat would help formulate a vision and strategic platform for the future of Muslim women in Malaysia and be and an advocacy centre for their rights.

Meetings to draw up the framework of the secretariat and its terms of reference will be held next week between Shahrizat, Minister in the Prime Minister's department Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who is in charge of Islamic religious affairs, and leaders of Muslim women and family NGOs.

Family law and women’s rights in Islam are well enshrined in the Quran and Hadith. Unfortunately, many Muslim men and women in Malaysia and elsewhere, due to their failure to understand and practice such basic rights, they become poor examples and their faults are easily capitalized by international human rights and other religious (Non-Muslim) groups. These groups are bent on influencing their own standard of international accepted practices which may not necessary conform with the accepted norm and practices of the Muslim society and thus causes a clash of cultures.

It is indeed very commendable that such a secretariat be formed by the Government to “help formulate a vision and strategic platform for the future of Muslim women in Malaysia and be and an advocacy centre for their rights”. However, the Secretariat should be properly advised by competent Muslim experts on Islamic family laws and the rights of women etc and which could also be substantially contributed by experts and practitioners in Syariah laws in Malaysia and elsewhere.

The Secretariat should avoid falling into the pitfalls of “Orientalists” or the so called “socialist or modern Islamic human rights reformers” in simply interpreting and adopting the human rights reforms or religious tolerances advocated the west and therefore conflict with Syariah. Muslims have always acknowledge that Islam is the final religion brought as a guidance for mankind with a complete way of life for all times and situations.

The Secretariat when well formed and constituted should be complementary and not compete with the existing Syariah courts. In fact the Secretariat when well structured and composed with specific terms of reference, the role of human rights groups especially from the Malaysian Bar Council to unnecessary interfere in the Muslim religion and practices would slowly be diminished. Step by step, with patience and proper strategies, the Government should then review and isolate the other challenges posed by the human rights elements of the Bar Council and other political parties which are not practical or abusive for our culture and unique system of governance.

I fear the following:

1. The infiltration of so called Islamic reformers including NGO’s who lack the in-depth knowledge and practical exposure in Islamic family laws etc, bringing with them theories and examples advocated by the western based agencies for religious tolerances

2. The pressure from international and local human rights and non-Islamic groups to influence the Secretariat to act as a competitor rather than complementary to syariah courts.

3. The sensitivities of the UMMAH be jeopardize or overlooked by the Secretariat in its quest to crystallize its vision to be at par with the demands and needs of modernization.

THE SECRETARIAT SHOULD NEVER BE AUTHORIZED TO ADVOCATE NEW LAWS, REGULATIONS AND PRACTICES TO CONFLICT WITH SYARIAH.

AMENDMENT ARTICLE 121 OF CONSTITUTION PUT ON HOLD

2008-06-21T02:06:00.000-07:00

Quote & Unquote NST 21/6/08

“Zaid: Proposed reforms to take some time

It looks like the reform of the judiciary will take longer than anticipated.

The cabinet has so far not decided on the proposal to reinstate Article 121 of the Constitution, which contains the provision for separation of power between the executive, legislature and judiciary and to form a Judicial Appointments Commission (JAC), which will kick start the judicial reform process.

For reasons of concern as exemplified in my earlier posting on 12 June 2008, I was most happy reading that there’s resistance in the cabinet to reinstituting Article 121 at this point of time. My hope is that such decision prevails until such time when the amendment/ reinstitution have been studied in great depth and the unstable political situation in this country has much improved.

This is Malaysia where Islam is the Official religion and more than 60% of the population is Muslims, our fabric of society and our culture is so different from that of UK for us to completely follow the Westminster Parliamentary System of Government. The cabinet’s decision or indecision was most relieving; I can sleep better now.

Shukor Alhamdulilah.

IN DEFENSE OF CHE DET

2008-06-20T06:24:00.000-07:00

Tun Mahathir’s blog is one of the most popular blogs read by Malaysians. However only a handful of the tremendous responses received for each article written by Tun were unnecessary critical or uncalled for.

Although its freedom of speech/ expression, I just had to response to some of these foolishly written comments in defense of one of our country’s greatest statesman to-date.

In Che Det’s latest posting on Rapid KL: Answers to questions & SAPP

“Dear Tun

I have the following response to some of your critics, if you allow me:

Antimamak

Hey Antimamak, what kind of sick animal are you? Why are you so heartless to cause further pain to a hapless mother by mentioning the manner about her daughter in comparing with the cleanliness of Tun’ messages? BTW, the mother is an old friend of my wife and we are aware of her grave concerns about the plight of her daughter.

What wrong had the mother and daughter did to you that you purposely highlight her name in the most viewed blog in the country today? Since you specifically mentioned the woman’s name, I dare you to give your full name and i/c. number so that all the mother’s friends and family members can conduct special prayers and “minta doa balasan setimpal kerana penganiayaan Antimamak ke atas kedua ibu dan anak yang tidak berdosa kepada Antimamak”.

With respect to all the issues you raise about Tun, they are meaningless to the readers as they can see your evil character!!!!!!

To the others

- YS Lim: Do you know the difference between a “son-in-law” and a “son”? No wonder you cannot comprehend the simple explanations by Tun.

- Alwin Lee: Peter Drucker, the father of modern management, is but one of the many famous management consultants promoted by the West. When the west acknowledged the growing power of eastern economies, they also begin to acknowledge the eastern way of management. Over time, especially with globalization and advancement in technology, management styles and principals also change to suit the situation. What Peter Drucker says therefore may not be absolutely the whole truth. In reality, what percentage of people likes any changes especially if their “tummies” or trade are adversely affected? Or try implementing good corporate governance, risk management and corporate transparency in a family owned and run organization, you think the owners and management like it? You’ll get the boot for sure!!

All the very best to you, Tun”

Earlier on, my comment on Che Det’s posting on Openness was as follows

“PM surely is one person who has completely forgotten himself and his roots ever since he took over from Tun; he’s no Mr. Nice or Mr. Clean but arrogance, thick headed, vengeful person with his family interest in priority instead of the people. Worse he’s completely incompetent leaving the fate of the country in the hands of a 32 year old Oxford graduate and a bunch of yes men.

So his goons have to repeat doing the Spin job all over again, every day and night, 7 days a week hoping the people will believe the prejudice views while hiding the harsh realities. To be open, PM must be transparent but we know he’s so way off; so many issues remain unanswered or unresolved agitating the voters especially the Silent Majority.

But the people are not that stupid anymore, they can easily differentiate glass from diamond, clearly visible from the way PM consistently flip flop. That’s the reason PM’s spin machines are constantly overheating while uselessly burning away the future and fortunes of the country.

Take care Tun, we are always with you.”

In responding to a critic named PJ on Cet Det’s “Ian Chin’s Great Revlations”, my response was

“To PJ

You seemed too sure of the past as tho’ you were a witness and an active participant then. I am sure you are aware that in the Tun Salleh Abas case, only a handful of the citizens knew the involvement of the Agong then in dismissing the Lord President, even the nincompoop defacto Law Minister and all the yes men of PM overlooked it. They were so blinded in their quest to belittle Tun in their foolish intent to reform the Judiciary. As such, Tun had to make such disclosure to put his foot down and the AG subsequently announced no public apology.

Don’t be surprised that this latest “goof” you referred to will be similarly shot down. Its just dirty politics, the norm played by PM’s goons that will go no where except to dig and dig old cases to deflect the realities and hardship of the rakyat following the nonsensical 41% petrol price hike.

Do not detest Tun for he is indeed a most honorable man and a great statesman; he has lots of secrets and evidences kept in his private chambers to prove he was correctly rational in his past decisions within the ambit of the law. This I have been made aware long ago from the most senior officials to Tun at that relevant point in time. It is perhaps that Tun wish to perhaps “nak jaga muka air orang”. But Tun will, if pushed, and when that happens, Mr PJ, eat your heart out and cry as, literally speaking, we kick your bare butts when you shamefully hide your head in the hole like an ostrich.

To Tun, we love your guts and statesmanship; we will always stand with you.”

UMNO SHOULD SAY “NO” TO CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGES (ARTICLE 121 1A) TO STRENGTHEN THE COURTS

2008-06-12T08:30:00.000-07:00

The defacto Law Minister said “a proposed amendment that would revert Article 121 (1) of the Federal Constitution to its original form would be tabled in the next meeting of Parliament”. The original provision accorded judicial power to the High Courts of Malaya and Borneo, which according to him was a principle affirming the separation of powers between the Executive and Judiciary.

(http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/6/12/nation/21527349&sec=nation).

The amendments to Article 121 of the Federal Constitution in 1988 removed the inherent powers of the court and subjected the same to federal legislations. The separation of powers through constitutional re-amendment of Article 121(1A) is to restore the inherent judicial powers of the judiciary as entrenched in the Merdeka Constitution which was taken away in a constitutional amendment as part of the 1987-88 Operation Lalang crackdowns.

To me, UMNO should say “NO” to the said proposed amendment to be tabled to the Cabinet before passing to Parliament especially if the UMNO Supreme Council has yet to analyze, evaluate and understood its ramifications after taking into consideration the practical and historical aspects for the change from its original form.

Besides several reasons, the environment is currently not conducive for UMNO to say YES:

Foreign Investors’ Perspective- The perception of certain investors from the Anglo American international community that they have no faith in our judiciary system is a fallacy while their ulterior motive is perceived nothing more than to bring the country to its knees; these “penyagak’ tie their investment criteria to populist reforms. For the good many years, under the Mahathir Administration, Malaysia has achieved tremendous development and progress and it is a country much respected by the Muslim world and the Non-Aligned Nations as well as acknowledged by others in the international community which does not have any political agenda.

Compare then with such bias perception from certain foreign investors- “But in 1988 any appearance of judicial independence was wiped away when Prime Minister Mahathir orchestrated the impeachment and removal of the Chief Justice in response to a political dispute between the prime minister and the courts. When four other judges resisted hearing the impeachment trial, they too were dismissed. This was a major blow to separation of powers and rule of law from which Malaysia has not yet recovered” (http://iis-db.stanford.edu/pubs/20956/Malaysia_IPP.pdf).

Remember the 1997 financial crises when the country was almost “destroyed” had it adopted the recommendations and practices by the World Bank and IMF. Is there much difference now when the immature and inexperienced Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs is strongly advocating the open market practices while disbanding subsidies? Is it with certainty that the flow of FDI into this country will be enhanced with the introduction of such reforms?

The moment the Badawi Government announced judiciary and other populist reforms, the country begun to destabilize as it dances directly and indirectly to the designs of unscrupulous foreign influences and are being capitalized by the Opposition. Being inexperienced and trapped by their selfish populist/ liberalist visions, the flood gates have all opened and the Badawi Government is seen consistently incompetent to govern effectively, making one grave mistake after another, “flip flopping”, to the disgust and anxiety of the majority of the population but to the satisfaction of the Opposition out to capitalize on the protest votes.

The Royal Commission on the Lingam Video Tapes - is but a consequence of the trapping instigated by DSAI but then advocated and manipulated foolishly by the Government apparently bent to demonize Tun Mahathir under the pretext of judicial reforms. Can the people continue to condone such unwise decisions taken by the Government in wasting resources while abusing power even if the issue has yet to see any end? Subsequently with arrogance and ignorance, the newly appointed defacto Law Minister, Zaid Ibrahim unearthed the Tun Salleh Abas case

3. The Tun Salleh Abas Case - Zaid had said that if the 1988 judiciary crisis was the root cause of the state of the present day judiciary, the healing process should start from there. He said an apology was the first step towards restoring the independence of the judiciary, regaining public respect for the institution and bringing lawyers back to the fold. Thus the Tun Salleh Abas case was “unearthed” which, to many, was with much malice and shallow thinking, and had brought up nothing except gross confusion to the general public and waste of government resources.

Even the AG’s office finally said the case was closed and no public apology required; could it be that the Government has finally seen the truth in the Tun Salleh Abas case? However, there is but a tiny group of self interested individuals in the Government led by the defacto Law Minister bent on pursuing such populist policies which are not necessary endorsed by the majority of the population. Then there is that call for a Judiciary Appointment Commission etc.

The Malaysian Bar Council - under its President, Ambiga has failed to demonstrate that the entity could represent the best interest of the Nation from the perspective of the Judiciary; instead the Bar Council under Ambiga is seen promoting the self interest of human rights as well as bias political aspirations without much regard to accepted local culture and norms of the majority. Did all observe how Ambiga jumped the gun in assuming that Justice Chin was forthright correct in his allegation while others have denied otherwise? (http://bigdogdotcom.wordpress.com/2008/06/11/did-msms-reporting-on-justice-ian-chins-revelatio)

Perhaps under Ambiga, the Malaysian Bar Council together with other human rights groups, want to ensure the country is in full complaint with the US Department of State, Undersecretary of Democracy and Global Affairs, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor’s country reports on Human Rights Practices and International Religious Freedoms. (http://www.state.gov/g/drl/). Ridiculous!!!

The Justice Datuk Ian Chin case - seemed to enhance the belief that the Executive had indeed been prejudice against the Judiciary. However the case demonstrates this one member of the Judiciary who after all this years pent up with personal frustration decided to explosively revealed the veiled threats by the Executive against the Judiciary then once many, many “moons” ago. The “boot camp” indoctrination referred by Justice Chin was brought out again by none other than the trickster DSAI. The Government was quick to announce there’s no further need to “korek and korek” about such ridiculous past and frustrations. Can we expect more wild explosive exposures from other Judiciary members?

The Opposition’s Aspirations - DSAI and the Malaysian Bar Council under Ambiga have shown much disrespect of our accepted norms and culture. Then as expected following Justice Chin exposure, we have the Opposition with the likes of Kapal Singh and LK Siang who takes every opportunity to keep the Malaysian Police occupied with more police reports; no wonder the crime rate in this country increases as the Police are kept away from doing their duties and instead to focus on the selfish interest of these chauvinist politicians.

Indeed these opposition leaders have had this constitutional amendment as their battle cries for a very long time for several reasons and as such they will bark out loud when issues of their battle cries are touched. Next will be the ISA etc. It is frightening indeed that we have also individuals inside the Government/ BN who appear to be in co-hoots with them, willingly or unwillingly.

CIRCUMVENTING SYARIAH LAWS - Where decisions of the syariah court affect a non-Muslim, he or she can seek recourse in the secular courts who, in theory, overrule the Syariah courts as the Syariah courts are limited in their jurisdiction by Article 121 of the Federal constitution. In 2006 a judge ruled that Article 121 limited the federal courts from ruling on matters ruled on by the Syariah court when it touches Islamic matter. To some, this was seen as a misinterpretation of the article and the case is under appeal in the court of appeals.

The proposed Interfaith Commission was poured cold water earlier this year. However, religion-based organizations including the MCCBCHS continue to make representations that affect them; freedom to practice one’s own religion as promised by the Constitution. Already, some have already begun the process of undermining Islam- administration and the position of the Syariah courts and the realm of the Agong/ Sultans.

From this light, the proposed constitutional amendment is most dangerous and explosive if indeed attempts are to be imminently made to undermine the fundamentals and practices of Islam being the religion of the majority with the Agong/ Sultan as its head through the proposed amendment of Article 121 (1A). From precedence and existing efforts on “the freedom to practice one’s own religion” as so exposed by the proposed amended constitution, the likelihood indeed is quite certain.

UMNO should ensure that the proposed amendment remain as “still born” for the time being since there seems nothing significantly wrong with our judicial system as is. The 1998 amendment was made when BN had 2/3 majority in parliament and once such proposed amendment to Article 121 (1A) is passed by parliament tomorrow; it is uncertain when further amendments could be made if BN’s shaky status quo of less than 2/3 majority continues.

In these challenging times of uncertainty and tribulations, advocating changes for the sake of changing to please those who think naught except to be in line of international human rights standards is indeed foolish and will only add to greater insecurity. It would be more prudent for UMNO to instead lead BN in focusing to stabilize the electorate and winning back the population’s support and the lost of confidence.

The current oil crisis has exploded and the country is now expounded into greater chaos and dismay with daily public outcries and threats of massive demonstration negating the importance and necessity to have such populist and liberal reforms. With the potential use of police force, if deemed necessary, to quell such demonstration, the Government may have to inevitably challenge the independent powers restored to the Judiciary. What a mockery that will become but that maybe incomparable to the imminent dangers befalling fellow Muslims which will consequently affect the entire community

To win back the crucial support, UMNO and BN can do without these skewed formats of western based democracies and capitalism and of their unscrupulous agencies and human rights ideologies. To allow UMNO and BN to fall into the pitfalls of the opposition could certainly and critically undermine the security of the country.

Thus UMNO’s Supreme Council should be convened to discuss in great depth on such a crucial National issue and hopefully say NO to the said proposed constitutional amendment Article 121 (1A) at this point in time.

OIL PRICES HAS GONE UP NOT BECAUSE OF DEMAND AND SUPPLY PROBLEMS BUT MORE SO BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE SPECULATION AND THE DEPRECIATION OF THE USD.

2008-06-09T09:13:00.000-07:00

That the price of our petrol is extremely high and burdensome to the Rakyat when comparing our purchasing power parity with those of other countries is indeed apt; by such comparison, our petrol and diesel prices are among the highest in the world ( http://kadirjasin.blogspot.com/)

A graver concern is the direction of our leadership as it dances directly with the tunes of the US administration and its agencies like the IMF ever since PM took over. Being the 17^th greatest trading nation in the world with a substantial amount of trade directly with US and most of its trading conducted in USD dominated currency, the country’s fortune is tied to the extreme volatility of the US currency. The Government is considered imprudent if it does not address the source of this predicament rather than simply telling the rakyat just to tighten their belts and change their lifestyles.

OIL PRICES HAS GONE UP NOT BECAUSE OF DEMAND AND SUPPLY PROBLEMS BUT MORE SO BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE SPECULATION AND THE DEPRECIATION OF THE USD.

Quote & Unquote below

Oil prices shot higher by almost $11 a barrel on Friday, scoring their biggest one-day gain in dollar terms as talk about a potential Israeli attack on Iran combined with a slide in the U.S. dollar to send prices to their highest levels on record.

All of those factors helped contribute to oil's latest big surge, "but fear by far is the biggest driver right now," said Kevin Kerr, president of Kerr Trading International.

Pressuring the dollar, the U.S. government reported the unemployment rate in May jumped to 5.5%, the highest since October 2004 and the biggest increase in seasonally adjusted unemployment in 33 years. A weaker greenback tends to boost the price of dollar-denominated commodities, such as oil, as it makes them cheaper for holders of other currencies.

It "looks a lot like a recession to us," wrote Joseph Brusuelas, chief economist for Merk Investments. Employment is one of the main indicators used to judge whether the economy is growing or contracting.

Such problems cannot be tackled singly by Malaysia because they are international problems and therefore should be tackled in togetherness with the affected international community. Hence, where’s our local leadership to garner the support of the international community against the speculators and the fall out from the US recession i.e the depreciation of the USD?

If we lost our subsidies to the speculators, why should we not fight back what is rightfully ours?

That we are a net exporter of oil and yet Petronas do not make a sen as per its latest the financial year end needs greater scrutiny – were there excessive speculation in the Nation’s resources which belong to the people?

The clamor now is for the development alternative energy sources and improvement of a more efficient public transportation system but all these will take a long time. The cost of exploration and upgrading of petroleum facilities will continue and will be expensive because of the depreciating USD. Such actions and other actions taken by the Government in connection with substantial development/ capital expenditure will be looked with most skepticism or frown because the immediate benefactors are considered the 1^st Family and their co-hoots who will be awarded the big contracts; there is no confidence in the present leadership in steering the country.

In the meantime, it looks like under the House of Badawi, our country is on the speediest course to be the next colony of the United States. PM and his yes men has yet to demonstrate their ability to confront or take the bull by the horns, rather they simply follow the norms of the market practices in resolving these strategic issues such as advocated by the IMF and other similar agencies. Already incompetent, the House of Badawi is so bewildered with the situation that it can’t see the trees from the forest. The culprits being speculators and the depreciation USD, the blame is on the subsidies. Most countries have some form of subsidies even the US, the European Union etc have their own form of subsidies. And the GATT/ APEC talks eg the removal of protectionist policies have affected local industries eg the sale of our National car; its free market enterprise everywhere and that nations succumb to the giant enterprises of the Anglo American designs in dominating the economies of the world.

Then we have ministers like Shahrir who eagerly propagate the removal of subsidies in reforming our economic system to open market practices. We have a back door defacto law minister who advocates an urgent reform of the judicial system in bringing it up to be the epitome in the world yet misuses the resources of the country to make life difficult for TDM. The weak leadership continuously succumbs to the wishes of the Bar Council and other human rights group threatening the fundamentals and practices of Islam in this country while advocating a populist reform towards religious tolerances in this country. There are many more populist and liberal reforms being undertaken at the detriment of the existing social contract among the races. All these are bringing our country closer to the designs of Malaysian Malaysia and the Ketuanan Rakyat being the affirmative policy of DSAI based on merits. How I wish it’s so easy for the Malays to go into business dominated by the other races where the affirmative merit system has not place. Thus the very fabric of our society’s structure is being torn apart slowly but surely fueled by the so many populist liberal reforms.

It is extremely sad to see that the top leadership of the country as well as in the opposition making up of so-called elite Malays being manipulated consciously or unconsciously by the Anglo-American designs to dominate the people of Malaysia in togetherness with the advocates of local human rights groups especially the Malaysian Bar Council and those closely associated with them. The future of our country appears most bleak if we continue to have unscrupulous leaders such as AAB, DSAI & SIL at the helm of our country who seemed so contented to be closely associated with these foreign designs. The present Executive cannot lead but yet he is led by a bunch of incompetent and inexperienced yes men to ensure a legacy for him and his SIL. It is indeed the classic case of the blind or half blind leading the blind while they discard the realities of past precedents and norms which have made the country once resilient, politically stable and peaceful. Flip Flop = incompetence.

Lastly, it’s most sad to-day to hear my daughter complaining that at her school, the cost of a bun with sausage/ hot dog has gone up by 50 sen to RM2.00. So we went to a hyper market to buy her ration for 4 days of similar food supposedly at a cheaper price without taking into consideration the extra-cost of mileage. I am sure prices of most necessities will escalate in the days to come and soon there will be massive public demonstrations. I was told that the police will be hard with these demonstrations. Should these public demonstrations get out of hand, shouldn’t we blame those 4^th Floor boys who advocate a police state like that of Singapore? I hate the thought of being caught in the traffic jams arising from the public demonstrations and police action; my petrol consumption will be costly and most unbearable.

Yes, the country is certainly doomed fueled even more by the recent dramatic increase in petrol and diesel prices; we need to change the present Flip Flop leadership pronto FULL STOP.

PETROL PRICE HIKES – PULLING THE WOOL OVER THE NATION’S EYES?

2008-06-07T22:33:00.000-07:00

Says TDM, the adviser to Petronas:

“Roughly Malaysia produces 650,000 barrels of crude per day. We consume 400,000 barrels leaving 250,000 barrels to be exported”.

Said its president and chief executive officer Tan Sri Hassan Marican, “Petronas will go bust within 10 years if all its profits are handed to the Government to continue subsidising fuel”. Commenting on the fuel price increase, the Petronas boss said the corporation did not make a sen from the increase.

“All the oil companies get full market price for the petrol and diesel that they sell and the Government pay them the difference from the fixed price. This is where the subsidy comes into play,” he added. At the close of its financial year in March last year, the national petroleum company had given the Government RM52.3bil in taxes, royalties and dividends which worked out to be 32% of the Federal Government’s revenue. (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/6/6/nation/21470681&sec=nation)

The Rakyat are also aware that

Our exports of crude oil are more suitable for jet liners while our imports are of the refined type suitable for motor vehicles
Crude oil for jets cost are more expensive than crude oil grade for motor vehicles while the cost of refined oil are multiple higher than its crude.
In international oil markets, there is also forward trading where we can buy and sell our crude oil now for a fixed agreed price to be delivered in the future; it’s a business which one could make much more or loose more. With the high volatility in the forex market, the potential gains or losses exacerbate.

Should the Government reconcile with updated numbers from Petronas and rationalize to the people what happened to our oil revenue and the insufficiency of our subsidies? Was there any hefty loss incurred in the forward trading (inclusive of forex losses) of our oil revenue and if there was, who should take responsibility and be accountable?

With such rationalization of updated and readily available numbers, the Rakyat should be able to appreciate the shocking action for the 40% increase in petrol price last week and the notion that there will be a further crunch comes August this year is not because all our oil production have been forward sold at a low price compared to market.

What the Rakyat do not want is to have ‘the wool pulled over the Nation’s eyes’ and then ah…demand for another Royal Commission when the Rakyat finds out indeed there was gross mismanagement of the oil revenue while the Rakyat is made to suffer and grossly misrepresented?

THE WORD ALLAH PART 4 - CONFUSION, PUBLIC ORDER AND RELIGIOUS SENSITIVITIES

2008-06-04T17:49:00.000-07:00

In the use of the name Allah by the Catholic Church, I had suspected that the Government’s counsel did not put forth a serious challenge perhaps on the similar basis for the country’s “lost” of Pulau Batu Putih.

Early May this year, it was reported that “Malaysian Catholics had won the right to mount a legal battle against the Government’s ban on the use of the word “Allah” as a translation for “God” in their main publication. The Government last year declared that the word could only be used by Muslims and threatened to close down The Herald newspaper if it defied the prohibition.

The High Court judge Lau Bee Lan had then overruled objections by the state’s counsel to the case going ahead, saying they were “without merit and therefore dismissed” which then paved the way for a judicial review of the government ban.”

I had earlier raised my concern in my bog (The Name Allah – Part 1 to 3 & Sudahkah Tiba Untuk Umat Islam Pukul Canang?) as well as in response to other blogs that the High Court’s decision should be challenged by Muslim authorities and NGO as the matter would cause anxiety and injustice to the majority Muslims in this country which belong to the staunch and fundamental Sunnis of the Shafie School. Indeed the issue is a potentially explosive one if no positive action is taken against the decision.

Fortunately, all is not loss yet as the Muslims’ cause is now being intervened by The Federal Territories Islamic Religious Council (MAIWP) and the Perak Islamic Religious and Malay Custom Council (MAIAMP). “The councils seek to become interveners on the grounds that they have interest to averting confusion among the people which can undermine public disorder and provoke religious sensitivities. In an accompanying affidavit, the FT council secretary Datuk Che Mat Che Ali said it had “interest to giving views and/or to know the court’s decision in the judicial review application because it is a body which directly gives advice to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.” As reported in Bernama.

More Islamic/ Muslim intellectuals, authorities and NGO should come forward, directly and indirectly, in support of MAIWP and MAIAMP. The case should be followed through closely by the Muslim mainstream media and also the duty of Muslims to post their solidarity with the two religious councils.

Perhaps in another show of solidarity with MAIWP and MAIAMP, on one particular Friday prayers, a nation wide sermon should be held and devoted for the entire Ummah to pray for the success of this intervention in avoiding a grave mistake from happening. In this particular instance, the majority Muslim community in the country wishes to uphold the status quo. If the Catholic Church is successful, this could also have adverse repercussions to the country’s Islamic image as well as to the international Muslim community.

PM IS SEEN AS “DAYUS” IN THIS CASE IN HIS QUEST FOR MORE LIBERAL AND POPULIST REFORMS - A BIG APPRECIATION TO THE RELIGIOUS COUNCILS AND THE AGONG FROM THE COUNTRY’S MUSLIMS.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Federal Territories Islamic Religious Council yesterday filed an application to intervene in the judicial review sought by the Kuala Lumpur Archbishop of the Home Minister’s decision to prohibit the use of the word “Allah” in the Herald Catholic Weekly publication.

Zainul Rijal Abu Bakar filed the application at the High Court Registry on Jalan Duta at 2.15pm.

He also acted for the Perak Islamic Religious and Malay Custom Council when it made a similar application on May 26.

If the High Court allows the applications, both councils will become two other respondents alongside the minister and the Malaysian Government who were named by the archbishop as the first and second respondents in the review proceedings.

The councils seek to become interveners on the grounds that they have interest to averting confusion among the people which can undermine public order and provoke religious sensitivities.

In an accompanying affidavit, the FT council secretary Datuk Che Mat Che Ali said it had “interest to giving views and/or to know the court’s decision in the judicial review application because it is a body which directly gives advice to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.”

He said if the application to intervene was rejected or denied, the interest of the Muslim community would be prejudiced or jeopardised to the extent of disparaging the council's credibility.

He said the application was made without prejudicing the council to make any other applications with regard to the issue of jurisdiction which touches on questions on the use of “Allah” in the Herald Catholic Weekly publication. – Bernama
