Fight Racism

Yang Mulia, Raja Petra Kamarudin - a member of the Royal Family of Malaysia who sacrificed his life of luxury to fight for Freedom and Liberty for the People of  his country.


Change can’t happen by itself. We need to make that change. Racism is Umno’s 'secret weapon' and the only way to beat Umno at this race game is to register as a voter and vote racism out of office. So register as a voter, now, and make that change. Only YOU can end racism. Umno understands only ONE language, the power of your one vote. Umno does not fear God. Umno fears losing power – RPK

RPK's thoughts are shared by ALL right-thinking, peaceful Malaysians...Malays, Chinese, Indians, Ibans, Kadazans ...ALL Malaysians.

...I have promises to keep...and miles to go before I sleep...


Universal Declaration of Human Rights
G.A. res. 217A (III), U.N. Doc A/810 at 71 (1948).

Preamble

Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,

Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people,

This country certainly needs a change. The people of this country need this change...for a peaceful Malaysia.

We may not see this change in our lifetime but let us think of our children and their children. Please inculcate Article 1 into them.

Allow them grow up as one big happy family, mixing and playing together as one without thinking of the colour of their skin.

Allow them to grow into liberal thinking adults knowing and accepting that they are ALL Malaysians.

Let there be mutual respect among them. Let them know that ALL religions preach good things and let them not deviate from the teachings of their religion.

Let there be a group of Malaysians – Malays, Chinese, Indians, Ibans, Kadazans sitting at one table, laughing and enjoying a free and healthy conversation.

Impose the moral values that no one is mightier than the other, and that we are all one – Malaysians.

Let racism, NEP, quota system, ‘bumiputra’ and ‘ketuanan’ be a thing of the past. Let them all come together as one.

These are some of the things we can do during our lifetime.

...Let us not be judged by the colour of our skin but by the content of our character... Martin Luther King

A sudden emergence of brilliance

A’s galore – Is this for real? 

(Aliran) So many students these days obtain a string of A's in public examinations. And yet, most people who were in school, say 50 years ago, can recall how difficult it was in those days to obtain an ‘A’ for any subject in the study syllabus, observes Inhindsight.


============================ 

written by anon, April 03, 2010 11:51:05

Why is everyone so shocked that students are getting straight As? This is 2010 not the 1950s, 60s or even 70s. In the 50s and 60s there were exams in Standard 6 and if you fail you're out - which has its disadvantages too, then LCE and MCE (before this SC). Finally, HSC - to toughest exam before you get into (if you do) a University.

Remember our names appeared in the newspaper for all to see?

Degrees were world recognized. Then came the 80s and 90s. By this time of course degrees were not recognized outside this country except for perhaps some Univs where millions were 'donated' ( I was told) to hand the degree on a silver platter. Ohio State, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Indon Univs, some Russian ones, Ukraine for example.  

Veteran Malays who had post-Form Five (TTC?) qualification were sent to Leeds and York to do their Masters programme! From Form 5 - to Masters! They lived in their own little 'kampong' in Leeds and York (as related to me by them) and returned as Lecturers in Universities! They come back and spoke like they never stepped outside their local kampongs. And that is the language they teach - and it's not B. Melayu of course. I mean, why go all the way to England to study BM? The Brits speak English.

These kampong Malays kept to themselves - they never wanted to mix with the locals (the Brits)...you know, come Hari Raya, it's 'All in the Family' - ketupat and rendang, syrup and karaoke. 


The wiser Malays mingled with the locals and these Malays came back, served their 7 year mandatory stint (some paid it off) then migrated ...to England and the U.S. 

People like me on the other hand had to struggle to get good results in the HSC exam then obtain a degree, followed by a Diploma in Education and only then go on to do Masters.

In other words, my good Bumi friends, skipped all and did their Masters Programme (which by the way was a 9 month programme) - skipping 'A' levels or HSC AND a basic degree - conveniently get their Masters degree. 

These 'Masters' churn-outs did not learn much as their knowledge of the language was about the same prior to leaving for England.

So what is their Masters degree equivalent to?

My point now is simply this: Why is everyone shocked at students getting 10As or 15As?

This is the 21st century and it is also 1Malaysia - where everything is possible

CHERATING RESORTing to beer

 Malaysian model who drank beer escapes caning sentence  

 A Muslim woman sentenced to be caned for drinking beer has had her punishment commuted, in a surprising turnaround for a high-profile case that raised questions about Malaysia's Islamic laws.                  

Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarno, a 33-year-old mother of two, received a letter yesterday from the Pahang state Islamic department informing her that the state's sultan has decided to spare her the caning.

The order is likely to cool down a fiery debate over whether Islamic laws should intrude into people's private lives in this Muslim-majority country. Many people had condemned the punishment, saying it shows conservative Islamists are gaining influence over the justice system.

Her lawyer, Adham Jamalullail, said: “As a substitution for the caning, the sultan has ordered Kartika to perform community service for three weeks”. 

Sultan Ahmad Shah is the guardian of Islam in the state, and its titular head. Most of Malaysia's 13 states are ruled by sultans who usually play a ceremonial role in governance but have the power to rule in Islamic matters.

Ms Kartika, a part-time model and nurse who was caught drinking in a hotel bar, said she has been ordered to present herself at the office of the religious authorities in Pahang, which is in the middle of the country, tomorrow.

"Right now I do not know what sort of punishment it will be," she told AFP. "I am waiting for clarifications from the religious authorities."

Ms Kartika was sentenced in July last year to six strokes of the cane and a fine of 5,000 ringgit (£860) for drinking beer in December 2007 at a beach resort in violation of Islamic laws. Islam prohibits Muslims from drinking alcohol.

Officials had said the caning would be very different to the corporal punishment administered on male criminals under secular civil laws. Drug offenders, kidnappers and others are caned with a thick rattan stick on bare buttocks that break the skin and leave lifelong scars.

Ms Kartika's punishment under Islamic laws would have been delivered with a thin cane on the back with her clothes on.

Ms Kartika, whose case has fuelled a debate over rising "Islamisation" of the multi-ethnic country, could have been the first woman to be caned under Islamic law in Malaysia.

But in a surprise move, three other women were caned in February for having sex out of wedlock.

Alcohol is widely available in Malaysia but is forbidden for Muslim Malays, who make up 60 per cent of the population. They can be fined, caned, or jailed for up to three years, but prosecutions are extremely rare. 

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/

.... this is the result of local and world pressure.... I personally believe that this whole issue was blown out of proportion by hypocrites who claim and proclaim abstinence.

 Kartika, you have shown the world what 1Malaysia is.

Filthy Wealthy

There are millionaires and there are billionaires. But is there a place for respect, compassion and humility? These wealthy ones do not have a store room for it. Some do not know the meaning of it.

There are the fortunate ones, who get into elite schools and are above the law. You fool around with them, you're history...even if you do not mean to hurt them. You are at their mercy. If these kids are in a bad mood, you have to keep away and never play with them. Do not even try to console them. They control the area - they are the 3 line people of the city.

They come in a pack, like a six-pack of San Miguel. Foaming at their mouth. Get out of their way or face their wrath. I faced it much to my delight actually. 

Once upon a time, somewhere in NS, there was once a wealthy Malay (not Muslim) woman and she came to me blasting her mouth off - because her dainty little over-sized daughter did not know the answers to my questions - questions about her own religion. I did not wish to get involved in a sensitive matter but she went with the flow of her moronic group of friends who urged her to challenge me.

Now, this fat, well let's call her Fatimah, was at first an introvert. She sat alone and did not know how to mingle with the rest. I made a 'mistake' - I managed to make her sociable and then before I knew it, she went overboard. Her best friend - yet another pipsqueak girl....a sneaky little worm. I taught this worm how to crawl out of the mud.

So time passed and Fatimah became bigger and braver.  So when we had this non-discussion about Islam, I asked some basic questions and she could not answer my questions. Basic questions and she resorted to the first thing that came to her mind...she cried. It was obvious that she was embarrassed and so she went home and ran to her momma and poppa.

They came to the school one day - like Mary's lamb did - ( did not see her pops - her father I mean) and her rich momma blasted me and told me never to make her cute little fat daughter cry. Aww shucks, I tried to explain but of course she would not listen. She kept on hurling atrocities and all kinds of abuse - does the Koran state that you are allowed to do that to anyone, not just to an ordinary person who woke her not-so-little little daughter up. No it does not.

I smiled and let her go on with her rantings. Her diatribe was rather monotonous. From a kampong to a city. From a meek n mild Malay to an Amazon. I would have thought the father would be the one who would have spoken to me. Strange. I guess he was above all this or knew that I was right - that his daughter did not learn much from the Agama class she attends. Either that or she was taught the wrong things. 

Her momma was of course dressed to kill with make-up and all. The only thing is, with a mouth like that, her lipstick was giving up on her. Her rosy cheeks became rosier....too much to bear with the harangue. I was on the other hand quite bemused. Her tirades did not match her attire and her the difficulty she must have taken to make herself look great. She looked like just another kampong woman with some Ralph Lauren make-up.

It was rather funny though and an experience I would not forget. Here you are, a kampong migrant deluded into believing that she was born and raised in London.

I guess she felt an all-time high after barking like a bitch with her little puppy beside her still in tears. Aww. That puppy too wears undersized garments revealing the only big thing she has - not her brains but her puppies. 

Where did the friendly, always smiling kampong woman's quality go to? Certainly not to her brains.

Now the not-so-little girl believes she is the next best thing after Maria Menado.

Heck, the best is yet to come....so stay tuned.

Churches attacked in 1Malaysia

8 January 2010

When I came home after work I was rather surprised to know that some churches were burned I kept on watching Al Jazeera. I also found out that one of the churches was about 10 minutes from my place.

So, being curious, I decided to go have a look. I drove there and parked my car and walked into the church. I was surprised to find the church intact. Only later I was told by someone there that the cops were very fast to act - not to catch the perpetrators but to clean up the place before people like me video-tapes it. 
I did take some photographs and a couple of videos which I have uploaded. 

Later, I decided to drive by an area that is equivalent to Kula Lumpur's Kampong Baru. Petaling Jaya's own Kawasan Melayu - about 400 meters away from the church.

There I captured some photos of a banner on the wall of the mosque.

PENGGUNAAN ALLAH PERKATAAN HANYA UNTUK ORANG ISLAM SAHAJA.

MAJLIS AGAMA ISLAM SELANGOR













Translated it means: 

The use of the word ALLAH is only for the people whose religion is Islam.


Majlis Agama Islam Selangor is, roughly translated, the Religious Council of Islam in Selangor.


In the 70s I used to walk freely through Kawasan Melayu. I shudder at the thought of walking into that area now.


This is a sad day for the country. These fanatical racial and religious bigots DO NOT REPRESENT  all Muslims in the country.
As a matter of fact, a Muslim friend said he was ashamed that this incident took place.
I appeal to the Hindus, Buddhists Christians and the people of other faiths to remain calm and not to retaliate.
Allow me to repeat: these illiterate confused racists do not represent ALL Muslims.

We have a (democratic?) government - in my opinion the wrong one that rules the country.

I do not see any real action being taken. Announcements are in the air - that the police are having it all under control. Then why are there more churches being burned? And a Convent school?

A lot Talk .... very few Walk The Talk.


This act is mushrooming although the powers to be say that the police are guarding all places of worship. At least that is what I heard on TV.

I feel saddened by this incident. I went to Muar with my sister and her husband and we had lunch at a Malay stall in a big building. We were the only non-Malays there and all the Malays were so nice and friendly. You would think this incident never happened.

So I say again....these pathetic people who burned the churches do not represent their community. It is totally unIslamic. The Koran does not condone such despicable acts of violence and sacrilege. Nothing new to these Malays who do not know what Islam represents.



.... to be cont'd

Dr M: Don't pick on bumi issue

(Malaysian Mirror) - Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today that the opportunity given to more bumiputras to enter public universities should not be disputed as a racist act which prioritises one race at the expense of others.


The former prime minister said the move was to ensure a balanced racial development so that the bumiputras were not left behind in mainstream education, which could have negative repercussions.

Seeking a balance

He said that at the private institutions of higher learning, which now numbered nearly the same as the public institutions of higher learning, the bumiputra enrolment was very small, only in the region of 10%, while the rest was made up of the other races because many bumiputras could not afford the fees.

"If we conduct a census of the number of students in the government and private universities, there are more non-bumiputra students. That's why we give attention and more places to bumiputras," he said in his keynote address, entitled "UUM 25 Years Expectation vs Reality", at the Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) Alumni Convention 2009 here.

"So we should not feel guilty (just) because we have places for the bumiputras. We have a right to attain a position that is on par in this country. We want reasonable rights," he said.

You can't call it racism, says Dr M

Dr Mahathir said the affirmative policy under the New Economic Policy to bring the bumiputras into the country's mainstream development in various fields, including education, was not something extreme because although bumiputras made up about 60% of the population, the set quota was only 30%.

"This is not racism...we only ask for half of what we should be demanding. This shows that we are not racist...in fact to get 30% is not easy."

If there was no balance, those left behind would feel hatred and jealousy and might act irrationally, and this was what the country wanted to avoid, he was quoted by Bernama as saying.

He added that the extra attention and opportunities given to the bumiputras did not mean that the other races were sidelined.

He also said that it was important for the bumiputras to have the knowledge in running a business because many of them did not use the money as capital or to invest but to shop.

"We must change the bumiputra mindset. The money will bring returns when invested and this can enhance their wealth. Normally, they spend when they have money...often more than the money available and this causes problems."

Advice to set up university town

On UUM, Dr Mahathir said the aspiration of its establishment had been achieved as was evident from the success in producing bumiputra graduates as well of graduates of other races in management but it was still not enough.

"The UUM's future still hinges on efforts in capacity building, especially for the bumiputras, in business," he said.

He said students in management finance and accounting must be taught to have the right mindset, strong resilience as well as other traits to be successful in business and other fields.

Dr Mahathir also hoped that one day there would be a university town in Sintok, where the UUM is located, like the university towns in Cambridge and Oxford.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I am beginning to believe what Anwar said about this Maha sh*t - he must be getting too old and all the ops are now making him senile.

What do you call a University that takes in 'bumiputra' students, the majority of whom who do not meet the minimum qualification? Then their marks are pushed - literally speaking - and they pass and graduate.

Why the quota system in the first place?

If these 'bumis' do qualify and have no money then help them by all means. But to just haul them all and make them all doctors and engineers and lawyers - who believe English Language only exists in countries like England, U.S and Australia - is somwhat pathetic -  depriving the non-bumis of a place in the University. 

That is not racism?

If they are given all the incentives and motivation and they still do not make it, why do you have to herd them all in Universities? Just to fulfill that NEP crap? To strike a balance?

The Malays who made it meritoriously deserve to be helped but certainly not the others who just want to sit on a fancy chair in a lounge suit as a Director of a company with a voluptuous secretary - and play golf.

Yes, open up two more Universities that are on par with Oxford and Cambridge and herd all the cow-head protestors inside these two Universities - the same sh*itheads who stepped on the photographs of opposition party members.

Listen Mahamutt, I know of 'bumi' students ( more tahn 55% ) who failed and were pushed to pass and graduated - what do you call that?

...and the more-than-qualified non-bumis were deprived of a place in the University.

.... a racist act which prioritises one race at the expense of others.

That is not Racism?


You have UiTM with about 36,000 students - 'bumiputras' - a lot of whom keep changing courses - starting with the Law faculty then finding it confusing and switching to other easier courses.

RACISM: The belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as that of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races.

Now tell me if what I said is not racism.

written by anon, December 13, 2009 02:25:55


Listen MahaMutt,

Forgot to mention this - I am sure we all have friends and family whose results are well above the minimum qualification - but yet cannot seem to get a place into local Universities. Why is that so? There are Universities blooming everywhere and yet there are no places for these students with excellent results.

That is not Racism?

Are these places reserved for the non-qualified 'bumi'?

Don't try to shit us with your garbage - many of these 'bumis' do not deserve to be in any University.

Let us get something very clear here - I am not against helping a bumi who deserves to be in a University and needs financial aid. Help him/her by all means. That is your duty.

I speak through experience when I say there are 'bumis' - scores of them who do not belong in a University - I have seen their results. In the 80s - a 'bumi' ( good friend of mine ) got in with ONE "A" - in Agama in his Form Six. Then he was sent to England to do his Master's Degree. He failed and did it again - tax-payers money of course. He finally made it.

Then he was sent - against his wishes - to get his PhD. You can guess if he obtained it or not. This is not a 'bumi' who is poor.

That is just one example. There are many.

The Matriculation program was created for the 'bumis' - one or two Sarawakians and Sabahans. Yes, a handful of these 'bumis' are good and made good but the rest should never had been given the chance to enter the University and follow the program - their English Language was atrocious and these were future Doctors, Engineers, Lawyers, Architects, Pharmacologists, Biologists, Chemists, Physicists - all in the field of Science. Of course the majority wanted to be Doctors .... and guess what - some already are and some will be.

Some are doctors in local Universities and others went to Sungai Petani. The good ones went abroad on scholarships - mostly to Ireland.

And the non-bumis with excellent results are struggling to get into a local University - a big number of them cannot get in because they are not qualified! So what is the qualification for the non-bumi?

That is not Racism?

You damn hypocritical racist bigot. Keep that garbage that spills out of your filthy mouth to yourself.

One MahaMutt followed by another MahaShit-yuddin. When can we expect the next Maha-moron? Won't be long.

Damn fascist started all this Racist policy with your so-called Malay Dilemma and your NEP. Stay retired you damn racist. Do not get involved in this education system that you made a mess of.

Why don't you go see these 'bumi' doctors the next time you go for your check-up? They are your by-products.

If you are as genuine as your rhetoric, I challenge you to have a young 'bumi' doctor as your family doctor.... for you, your children and their children.

"....a balanced racial development so that the bumiputras were not left behind in mainstream education",
-------------------------------
The majority of the 'bumiputras' are simply not interested so how can you have a 'balanced' racial development? They just want to sit around the grounds of the Twin Towers and enjoy the romantic atmosphere.

" which could have negative repercussions".
-----------------------------------------------------
This to me sounds like yet another threat from a former PM of a racial riot.

"many bumiputras could not afford the fees".
-----------------------------------------------------
More qualified non-bumis cannot afford the money - and who is to help them?


"If we conduct a census of the number of students in the government and private universities, there are more non-bumiputra students".
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why don't you conduct a census of who has to work harder and who produces better results - the bumis or the non-bumis?

"We want reasonable rights,"
-----------------------------------
What IS your reasonable rights? That the bumi who does not meet the minimum qualification be allowed to enter a University? That to you is .... reasonable?


"affirmative policy under the New Economic Policy" 
------------------------------------------------------------- 
A 'yes' plan for all bumis to enter a University minus the merit - just to bridge the gap - that is the "affirmative policy" under the NEP!
------------------------------------------------------------------

 "we only ask for half of what we should be demanding".
------------------------------------------------------------------ 
Only half. How thoughtful. It does not matter if you cannot find that half. Just take a handful of the rempits and you will make that half.

And .... should be demanding? Demand for what? For mutts to get into a University? They are making more money in illegal racing on the streets and enjoying it ( with their girls as pillions ).
 
"the extra attention and opportunities given to the bumiputras did not mean that the other races were sidelined".
--------------------------------------------
This extra push given to those who do not deserve it has definitely sidelined the other races - and you know that this is a fact.


"We must change the bumiputra mindset".
--------------------------------------------------
Finally you have said something that is true - but you also know very well that to do this is wishful thinking.

The mindset of most bumis is already set - by them - and you, even as the former PM for 22 years, failed to change that with your racist policies.

....you can take the man/woman out of the kampong but you cannot take the kampong out of the man/woman....

The only good Malay is the one who has emerged from the hard-core kampong shell and has seen democracy.

....anon

So the next best thing is to herd them all into a newly opened top-notch Universities and pass them all and expect them to have built-in business acumen and take over the economy of the country.

I guess these are the 'hopefuls' who have impressed you and have initiated you to build two more Universities - on par with Oxford and Cambridge.



LONDON: An international medical university will be built in Perak next year in collaboration with several leading universities, mainly from India, Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir said yesterday.

Qualifications: For 'bumis' only - good paper qualification is an asset but not compulsory.

Hey doc, you may get your wish.


Allow me to remind you of what Racism is: The belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as that of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races.

Utusan Malaysia has spoken: stand by for another May 13

Bayangkan apa akan berlaku jika orang Melayu bangkit dan bertindak memijak pula gambar atau poster pemimpin-pemimpin Cina di negara ini. Tidak mustahil peristiwa berdarah 13 Mei yang menjadi sejarah hitam negara akan berulang (Utusan Malaysia).


NO HOLDS BARRED

Raja Petra Kamarudin

This is the gist of what Utusan Malaysia wrote today:

The action of some DAP leaders of stepping on the photographs of the three Perak turncoats tantamount to Chinese stepping on Malays.

Two of the three PKR state assemblypersons are Malays -- so this means the Chinese stepped on Malay photographs.

Imagine if the Malays also step on the photographs of Chinese leaders. It would not be impossible for another ‘May 13’ to be triggered.

PAS and PKR are tools of the Chinese. DAP is very clever at using others, in particular Malays. DAP has been stepping on the Malays for far too long.

And so on and so forth. The full article can be read below. (You can also read 'Stepping on the DAP' by The Nut Graph here: http://www.thenutgraph.com/stepping-on-dap).

According to Utusan Malaysia, this is about Chinese versus Malays. This is about the Chinese insulting the Malays. This is about the Chinese stepping on the Malays. This is about the Chinese pushing the Malays too far. This is about if the Chinese continue testing the patience of the Malays do not be surprised if another race riot the likes of May 13 erupts.

That, basically, according to Utusan Malaysia, is what it is all about -- the Chinese spoiling for a fight which if they are not careful they will get.

But that is not what tickles me here. Do you know what tickles me? What tickles me is the Chinese telling me that Najib is saying all the right things and that Barisan Nasional will probably gain back its two-thirds majority in Parliament plus all the states it lost in the March 2008 general election.

What more can I say other than the Chinese deserve this and I hope Utusan Malaysia continues fanning the sentiments of the Malays with talk about another race riot a la May 13. Maybe this is the only thing that can knock some sense into the Chinese when a race riot really erupts and a couple of thousand of Chinese dead bodies are bulldozed into mass graves like once upon a time.

Sheesh! I really don’t want to talk more in case I begin to say something I might regret later.

It's rather silly.... all this stepping on photos and cows and all.... and turning all this into a racial issue. More than that, now, a threat of May 13 II.

It is pointless saying.... 'bring it on'. That's a typical gung-ho attitude. It will not solve anything. On the contrary, it will only make matters worse. The liberal Malays will certainly be offended by that bumptious remark.

When you say, 'bring it on' - that 'it' includes the army. 'We will take you on'. Are you willing to take on an army?  Your forefathers were slaughtered in 1969. 'Bring it on' spells arrogance and ignorance.

Were you there during the May 13 1969? I was. I would never like to see it repeated. It was a nightmare I do not wish to relive. It is sad, to say the least. We do not want our children to see a May 13 II. It will be something they will never forget - if they live to see it through - and that will be never forgotten - and it will be harboured in them. What next? Revenge?

The Malays, this time, will be united as one - even the thinking Malays will challenge the 'bring it on' mentality. The Indians and Chinese will, this time, be literally stepped on and ordered out of the country. It is a foreseeable possibility. If not that, then the they will be as good as slaves and this time, there is nothing they can do about it. Not even Malaysia - Today will be able to bring us all back together again.

Allow me to add a fact. The empty-headed Indians should never had gotten involved and fought the Malays. It was in essence, a bloody battle between the Malays and the Chinese. The Indians were merely pawns and they foolishly allowed themselves to be manipulated.

Had they not gotten involved in the blood bath, the Indians would have been politically within the matrix of the local community. I am not saying that the Indians should not have fought for their rights - all I am saying is this - they should never have fallen prey to others who wanted the booty for themselves.

Sure, it will make headlines in CNN, Al Jazeera, BBC World news - but what will be the repurcussions?

Do you sincerely believe that America and Britain.... or even China, will move in to save you?

Let us forget the past and move on for a brighter future. Let us fight for a better future. We are making progress. albeit gradually. Let us not digress from this. Let us focus on National Unity. We are Malaysians. This is Malaysia not 1Malaysia.

I would dare say, the majority of the Malays also had enough of all this racial bigotry. They too are agrieved. We can, work alongside and make this country a better place for all to live in.

There are Malays who are sidelined too.

This is what I mean when we have morons at the helm.

The cow-head march was a prelude to what could happen, at least what those who were involved were trying to suggest and that includes the keris-waving moronic minister who condoned the despicable act.

Now, yet another asinine malay female who took matters into her own hands has given an ultimatum to the non-Malays what will happen if anyone challenges a slithering (racist) Malay like her.

Now I have to stress that these are the ignorant, bloodthirsty racist Malays aka UMNO and its followers.

The important question is....what is the ruling party doing about all this? Not doing anything about a racist female moron and a newspaper that provokes the sentiments of the Malays means the party is condoning it and is issuing a threat to all Malaysians.

That female is a threat - what she wrote was clearly seditious but there is no sign of the ISA. The paper should be banned and the editor held for sedition.

Is this a country in which anyone (save the UMNOputras) wish to live in?

Is this a place where we can all, as Malaysians, walk freely, without fear of being slaughtered - or seeing animals being slaughtered in public places?

Tension is in the air and this is precisely what some quarters want and need.

Is this a country where racial tension governs ( the movement of ) the people?

Or is this a country where racial and religious bigotry will always be?

So this is the same country that has been given a new name - 1Malaysia.
