As expected, Utusan
Malaysia plays the race card. Bersih 4 is dominated by the DAP screamed the headlines.
. That is one. The colour of Bersih 4.
It must be defined in terms of racial composition. The usual propaganda employed by UMNO. We must reject this racial stereotyping.

Two, the size of
the crowd. The police says, the crowd was only 57,000 strong. That is true if
the police counts only the area around Sogo at 1pm on Saturday. There were 10
other places like the one in Sogo at 1pm. So there were 570,000 Bersih 4
supporters on Saturday.
600,000 went to the
streets forcing Najib to label these people as unpatriotic. Because they marched? No because they want to
save the country from the number 1 menace to the country. The man known as
Najib Tun Razak.
The DAP is not
the organiser of Bersih. It supported the march towards more Democracy as it always
has. Plus it is the most organised political party around. That is why Utusan Malaysia fears the DAP.
It will write a
familiar story line. That Bersih 4 is a protest movement by the Chinese against
a Malay UMNO dominated government. To add to the doomsday scenario on the Malays, Utusan has to assign blame/credit to DAP.
The people who attended
Bersih 4 yesterday and today won’t have their intelligence insulted by the
likes of Utusan Malaysia. It blinds itself to the sea of Malaysian Malays who
participated in great numbers at Bersih 4. If I were to put down a number, the
Malay participants constitute probably around 55%.
By casting
aspersions to the DAP. Utusan Malaysia, the mouthpiece of UMNO continues the acknowledgement
of DAP as a party that is drawing traction and allegiance.
Just a few weeks ago a stupid deputy minister said the Rm2.6 billion was a donation to fight against Jews and DAP.That was a maniacal statement.
Just a few weeks ago a stupid deputy minister said the Rm2.6 billion was a donation to fight against Jews and DAP.That was a maniacal statement.
I say, that’s an
acknowledgement of DAP as a party that is fast gaining traction. The UMNO
needed a huge war chest to fight the DAP. The DAP has repeatedly challenged
UMNO and the government to tell all about donations to political parties
If the amount spent was - I am told RM3 billion or more to pulverise the DAP and it still cannot succeed,
the UMNO is doomed.
So allow me to
tell readers how DAP gets its donation. As far as I know, sympathisers from all
walks of life including business people donated to DAP. But let me tell the reader
how DAP MPs and ADUns spend.
They spend entirely
their own money. When I contested Raub, all I got from secretary General Lim
Guan Eng was the appointment letter and the words, Raub is all yours. I am sure
the same was repeated to all the other DAP candidates. Here’s the surat tauliah
and its your baby now.
That was it. All
MPs spend their own money to pay for ALL expenses. That started with the deposit
with the elections Commission and the deposits to the local council. Expenses on
posters and flags, expenditures on party workers and helpers. All used their
own money. The contribution from the party was zero. It gave no money to
candidates.
So I am perplexed
why UMNO and BN candidates needed huge amount of money. My opponent in Raub for
example, reported to the BN chief in Pahang which is the MB, he has run out of
money half way the election period. So he reportedly asked more money from the
MB. The MB should have asked me how much I spent on the Raub election. He was
lied to.
The truth is,
all the BN candidates during the elections fleeced money from the Chief of BN. After
the elections they went on holidays, bought new expensive cars and still complained
they won or lost by having to spend huge amounts of money.
The Bersih 4
March is a sea of humanity. It is a sea of yellow shirted Malaysians. Of all
races, all political creeds and personal values. All are united with the desire
to save the country. They marched to demand more democracy. The person standing in between is the clueless PM.
To save our country from who? From the
PM and his band of arrogant leaders who are clearly standing on the side
opposite the rakyat. The rakyat include
also members of UMNO, one of whom has stared legal proceedings to compel Najib
to tell the story of the Rm2.6 billion donation. This is unprecedented!
Next , more of my
impression on Bersih 4.
Ex Trengganu MB Ahmad Said asked ...
ReplyDeleteUMNO had ruled Msia for 57 years and still crying to safeguard Malay special rights ... Malays under threat ... Malays living under poverty etc etc.
He asks .... for 57 years, UMNO ruled the country, Islam is National religion, what had UMNO been doing if Malaysia and Islam is under threat?
He said the facts are:-
1) Malaysia has 9 Sultans and a king and they are Malays.
2) PM & DPM, holding Malaysia's topmost powerful posts are Malays.
3) Since 1974, Minister of Finance is always a Malay.
4) Other than Penang, all CMs & MBs are Malays.
5) Majority of Federal Ministers are Malays, and influential and crucial Ministries are headed by Malays.
6) Out of 222 MPs, more than 50% are Malays.
7) More than 93% of Gov't Depts, from lowest to highest posts, are Malays.
8) NEP was designed and implemented for Malays.
9) 80% of Uni quota are reserved for Malays.
10) Special discount for house and stocks purchase are for Malays.
11) Top posts in all sectors and branches of the Armed Forces and Police are held by Malays.
12) GLCs are controlled and run by Malays.
He asks just how could the Malays (who are already in absolute control of all the crucial institutions and pillars of political, economic, and societal life) be threatened, and are facing the danger of being harmed and ousted by the minority races ?
It is actually UMNO leaders & their cronies who -- with their never-ending greed -- continue to bully & lie to Malays by blaming the Chinese and Indians, and making them as scapegoats.
Ahmad Said urges Malays to wake up and see the evil intentions of UMNO Warlords.
Malay or bumiputra bro...use the correct wording plz...fyi im not umno fans
DeleteDAP dengan Pakatan dah boleh start infiltrate Pahang, negeri Najib, kalau nak menang PRU14. Percayalah.

....... At the end of the day its not about Race....Its about the IDEOLOGY that have Failed and the Refusal to acknowledge that there is a better way to make a better Malaysia....too late now...the Crushing Economy will hopefully divide up malaya to their individual states and each will need to wise up and be Better than Singapore...
Don't forget to count and include
ReplyDeletethe thousands upon thousands of our fellow
Malaysians (and also the concerned ex-Malaysians)
who held Bersih 4 demonstrations overseas.
Syabas to all of them who support us who are in
Malaysia.
Selamat Hari Kebangsaan !

One sentence says it all: "UMNO is a party of thieves". They are a haram party who not only steal, but also tell lies and does tons of unjust things. They seduce people to wrong their souls by offering positions and money to do unjust things.
ReplyDeleteUMNO supporters should not get angry over this statement but instead wake up to this fact. Stop wronging your souls by supporting them and their evil acts. Let them go to Hell and not let them bring you along.
Thieves and criminals should be shot snd blown up. That is the only way to deal them..
ReplyDeleteGood truth write AK47 n all comments.. TQ
ReplyDeleteEverybody knows who the strongest supporter and financier of DAP. SINGAPORE
ReplyDeleteDAP is anti Malay and Islam. A good Malay are the one that's willing to be their puppets.
Both UMNO & DAP won't get my vote, until hell freezes over.
Dato,
ReplyDeleteex Trengganu MB Ahmad Said has it all right, that it is Umno, BN and cronies and pro-Umno media who keep on dividing the Malaysians by race politics.
The figures he provided in Anon 00.04 and 04:57 are reminders that the Malays could never be threatened by the non-Malays, and the opposition should highlight these to everyone in the kampungs, in the towns and in the cities.
ReplyDeleteYes, Dato, I believe every word you have written because back in 2007/8 I was a resident in USJ in Subang Jaya and we were friends of an IT man from there Jeff Ooi and he told us he was approached by DAP to stand for Subang seat but he has no money. Then this offer was changed to Serdang and finally he was asked to go to Jelutong in Penang...
Jeff Ooi's election fund in Jelutong were mainly raised by us in Subang and we raised a lot especially in the early morning from patrons at coffee-shops and at the SS15 wet market.... lot's of RM1 to RM2 donations and we worked 4-5 months and then continued to do so for Hannah Yeoh who was chosen as ADUN candidate...
We even got some commercial bakeries nearby to give us their excess bread and we used that in our campaign camps whenever we get hungry
SAK,
ReplyDeleteIt was a peaceful demonstration. It is actually something we can be proud of. It shows Malaysians stands for a non violent platform to deliver a message to the Government. To turn it into something racial is something the rakyat will reject outright. The rakyat is with the seekers of truth and justice.
Isn't it interesting that:-
ReplyDelete- the PM has a Chinese boy as unofficial adviser
- the DPM had a Chinese foster father
- the ex DPM has a Chinese son-in-law
- an ex PM has a Chinese tycoon as a close friend
- another ex DPM has a Chinese wife
- a senior minister's son drives expensive cars belonging to a Chinese businessman.
Firestone. But Jeff Ooi said that he was still short during the 2008 campaign. So he asked supporters to bank directly into his account. One donor banked in RM100K. I am inclined to believe that he got much more than he need in the end. Did he give a full accounting of what he received or he treated all those bank-ins as donations to him personally? I would have thought that the right thing to do is to give away the excess to charity or to surrender it to his Party. After all, he was raising funds using the party (DAP) flag!
ReplyDeleteBersih demands for fair elections. I really hope your party and coalition partners have worked out a strategy to gain more parliamentary seats in the next election. Please do not leave it to the last minute. Good luck

ReplyDeleteEven when the elephant is rubbing its nose with theirs, those Umno chaps will persist in ignoring it.
ReplyDeleteFor the same reason, M had to say while he did not support Bersih, he supported and was in solidarity with the rakyat at Bersih.
From this, what conclusion can be drawn if not that the basic principle of Umno is to fight the Opposition even if the Opposition represents the wish and will of the rakyat that Umno purportedly champions?
Unless Umno is only championing a select group of Malays to the exclusion of the majority of Malays and the non's who have indeed walked their talk, braved illegal threats from an establishment tainted to the highest echelons, and endured the unendurable all those long hours in inclement weather hours before an Independence Day of a country no longer independent, no longer thriving, not even surviving.
That leaves one and all to ask: what then does Umno stand for today, now, sekarang?
For the answer, you can ask Umno this: if you oppose the Opposition, what do you propose?
Do you propose N to continue although he has already indicted himself just by chickening out from opening THE international anti-corruption event on his very own home ground? What doesn't that tell you?
Or, do you think that in asking him to leave because of 1MDB, others in Umno will not cause new 1MDB's to emerge in the coming years when investments and capital have long fled because our national reputation has already been irreparably damaged?
Or do you think that this T.Aziz guy already advanced in his years is not talking man-hen like how the other guy, the ex-CJ of similar vintage had done when they incited against our Chinese rakyat on the sly aspersion they wanted to overthrow a government even at the expense of ignoring our Malay sensitivities?
So, those many of our Malays who had walked together with their Chinese brothers and sisters are also insensitive to the feelings of their own community?
What rot is that coming from the very hearts of who have had the benefit of years of silver-spooned living?
Millions are now having to eke a living because of the politically elitist kleptocracy and corruption that these so-called well-meaning idiotic luminaries are indirectly championing on the excuse of national interest, national security, national stability, national development, national - for want of a better word - fooklamak.
Finally, TRH has publicised his will. He should shake hands with Hadi and go back to Gua Musang. History will judge him, hopefully not too unkindly. But that's just wishful thinking.
In Bersih, the rakyat of Malaysia not just here but all over the world have spoken. Whatever their background, they have said enough is enough to Umno and its BN lackeys.
ReplyDelete"Finally, TRH has publicised his will. He should shake hands with Hadi and go back to Gua Musang. History will judge him, hopefully not too unkindly. But that's just wishful thinking."
So has he pulled out? For sure? Or just a "tactical retreat?"
That creates problems.
Who will the 80 Oppo MPs vote for now, in the no-confidence vote?
What is Dr M's formula?
I find Utusan strange.During the previous Bersih rallies they were more Malays than the other races.They blame the others for making use of the Malays.During Bersih 4.0 the Chinese were more than the Malays.They remind the government not to pay much attention to the Chinese and used a lot of insulting words in their headlines like 'Biadab'.More Malays appeared on the second day and some were in their casual clothes.Many did not come on the first day and it could be because of work commitments.One Malay man when asked said he came all the way from Pahang.All those who came had the same aspiration by their looks...for a better a Malaysia.
