Businessmen who have monopolies, licences, concessions are in the main enemies of the free market. Yes, they are all for the free market, except they don't want the ethos of the free market applied to them
They rush to Putrajaya to get special tax rebated, they want cheaper loans and government assistance, they want to preserve their monopolies.
When sapura is in trouble, it wants the government to help them. Nobody touches the monopoly on rice while saying publicly, we want to sort out the rice problem.
Bossnon doesn't really want to dismantle the monopolies, even when saying loudly he wants to break up the monopolies.
Bossku is all for freedom to compete for all party positions, except don't challenge the ketua bahagian2 post. If possible he wants the position till eternity.
Bossku, his lawyers, his psycophants and his major domos are all for freedom of information, freedom of the press etc. Except when they affect his interests.
So they pester and petition BossNon and the authorities to have Netflix's 'man on the run' be taken off from being communicated in any form.
The lawyers say pompously, the documentary is prejudicial to the interests of bossKu Ali babavum Najib. If the documentary were complimentary of Najib, his psycophants and majordomos, would embellish it with unbridled gusto and lustful appetite.
In fact, the nextflix rendition is boring and make it out that UMNO is composed of heroic and righteous people.
So, BossNon and the bungling and inept communications minister should not pay heed to the pleadings of bossKu's lawyers and other psycophants to unfree the nextflix documentary. Nahi, Machas.
Indeed, if the communications minister were politically savvy, he would air the stories about SRC international and 1MDB so as to inform the people.
Instead, he is more interested to ensure his hair is combed properly and his hair is in place, tries to look more handsome and perhaps make sure his 'dick' is ever ready.
In the meantime, he announces his big data project to hide the fact that he is doing a lousy job as Malaysia's Joseph Goebbels.
So, BossNon, see the quality of your people. I must admit that he is my friend, but won't treat him with kids gloves.
Sorry for the digression, back to the nextflix issue. There is absolutely no justification to ban the documentary, unless it harms 3rd party .
In this case, only the interests of Ali babavum Najib are affected. No harm is cause to the public at large. And some UMNO apparatchiks may be offended but they are few in number. Ignore them .
This follow the principle laid down by J.S. Mill( the economist), not a lawyer I am afraid lawyers may not know who Mill is .
The principle is this. There is no justification to use power against a person's own will, unless the use of that power is to prevent harm the issue causes to 3rd parties. The negative externalities argument.
Najib's private interests, moral or emotional are none of our concern. But the interests of the public at large, save for a few UMNO psycophants, are. The public wants to know what is going on . That need shall not be denied by an intolerable executive ban on the nextflix documentary.
That freedom of information must include access to any media publications, however obnoxious they may be regarded.
Lawyers for Najib say the publication of the Netflix documentary is prejudicial to Najib's defence. Let's take them on this issue.
Isn't that kind of argument an insult to the intelligence of the judges? It means, they are not capable of forming objective decisions. That they are easily swayed and easily influenced by some bitchy stories.
This issue really is a litmus test to show whether the people articulating the issue believe in freedom or not . Clearly the lawyers for Najib and UMNO psycophants, like the monopolist businessmen, want freedom for every one. But when their interests are not favourably accounted, they want special treatment.
The government must show whether they are on the side of private bourgeois interests OR on the side of the interests of the mustadafin/lumpenproletariat.
In a sense, how the Netflix issue is being played out, it is the manifestation of where the entitlement mentality is being challenged.
The Malay elite and bourgeoisie believe they are entitled naturally for special treatment and privileges, entitled to their demands etc. These are being challenged by the unhindered airing of Netflix's man on the run.
If the government accedds to the requests of these reactionary buggers, it's affirming the self entitlement mentality.
As to the documentary itself, it's a very boring film, yawn-worthy and only makes the ang-mohs heroes .
Umno has got an unexcisable problem. It thinks when it enters any elections, it must win. It thinks it's etched in stone.
Hence, when it entered the kemaman by- elections, it's a fait acompli, it's written in the stars. It must surely win.
When they lost, it starts blaming others but itself. Some reputable newspaper blamed for example, low voter turnout as a cause for UMNOs loss.
Wait a minute, weren't we were told repeatedly, That low voter turnout was advantageous to UMNO? Why the change in story? The liar must have a good memory. Obviously the people at that newspaper don't
Then there are the ignoramuses who fall back on the tiresome story, that UMNO lost and is rejected by the Malays because they are pimps or Barua to DAP.
Let's put our thinking caps for a while. What these people are saying, is that they do NOT need the non Malays to keep UMNO in power. If they don't need, why must the nons support them? The nose is flat, you push your cheeks to make the nose looked sharp.
Even if UMNO needs non Malay support, UMNO is not willing to give the rights that accompany non Malay support. So don't support them
Apply the same logic. If UMNO loses Malay support because it becomes DAPs Barua , it follows that PH , in particular the DAP is injured when associating with UMNO.
UMNO is the sickman in the unity government. It's the leper, no one wants to touch. Or to use a more earthy comparison, its the person with contagious STD.
So treat UMNO as one. Stay away from it
Put them in their proper place. Not by ditching them out, since they want to be part of the unity government and they have not insulted the unity government.
The strength of UMNO lies with the Malay base and its ability to indoctrinate and lie to them. Cut them off, there.
Limit their access through MARA, Felda, Risda and other glcs giving them access to the Malay base .
Mamu Anwar doesn't have to be sentimental about UMNO. Don't allow them recover their deficit. Ease their eventual demise. Remember what Napoleon said, when your enemies are making mistakes, don't interrupt them . By giving them Mara, Felda, Risda etc, mamu Anwar is interrupting them. What la
Meanwhile the UMNO 'extras' are busy coming up with cock and bull excuses as to why UMNO lost in the kemaman by-election. They do not erase the fact that UMNO lost, can't deliver and fast becoming irrelevant.
Too much analysis does indeed lead to paralysis.umno first doesn't know what to do despite the shriling and shrieking Quranic incantations of its secretary general. UMNO is in a state of rigor mortis, a bodily condition following death. That is what is happening to UMNO .
Even dr Mahathir, who has nothing to do with UMNO now, warned that UMNO risks being wiped out in the 16thh GE. Why should he be concerned about UMNO?
Unless, UMNO he says go back to its constricting and choking ethic extremism and chauvinistic proclamations. Which is a sure prescription for racial implosion.
The way forward for Malaysia is an acknowledgement of racial pluralism and harmony capitalising on the races best merits. Not the reactionary prescriptions of the doctor.
The hard truth on the ground is, racial harmony and accommodation is the norm and not incessant racial confrontation.
All the reasons given and rationalised by UMNO people, UMNO 'extras',UMNO deviants who got sacked and even busybody Dr Mahathir,share one common denominator
That one common denominator is that UMNO has a natural entitlement to rule. When UMNO loses the entitlement they , UMNO people go mad .
They become irrational, blamed others and choose to close their minds.
That they become irrational, lose their minds, enter into a state of non compos mentis, should not surprise us. Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad .
With all the happenings in UMNO, it is indeed going mad. The election results deniers, cock and bull excuses , blaming others and intensification of chauvinistic proclamations, it is indeed going mad .
What will eventually follow is the destruction of UMNO. I am afraid, that part of dr Mahathir's prognosis that UMNO will be anihilated in the 16th GE, will be true. Hehe.
The only thing that surprises me is that dr Mahathir, who has nothing to do with UMNO,should be concerned over its fate. Why Maa?
UMNO does not represent ALL Malays, only the extremists, chauvinistic and right wing Malays. So the only reason dr Mahathir is concerned about UMNO could only be because he is actually a closet umnoist.
Perhaps eventually he hopes to be reinstated by UMNO as a person who continuously stirs up cause celebre. Then UMNO can say a wilted sireh pulang ke gagang.
How was it possible that UMNO who believes that's it is entitled to rule, has the mandate from heaven, lost badly in the kemaman by-election?
Some of the reasons, I have pointed out in my article, written a week before voting. See my article UMNO has 2 chances in the kemaman by-election, slim and none. I am sure other 'analysts have other reasons not thought of by me .
I look at the UMNO Now from different perspectives. Mamu Anwar may want to look at UMNO differently too.
The diminished majority in Pelangai and the embarassing loss in kemaman, showed that UMNO can't enter elections without the help of PH. It's a shell of its former self. Just a paper tiger
From afar, it looks manacing, when near we all say, ' cilaka it's only a paper tiger' meant to be burnt before the altar .
The UMNO Now,must necessarily force us to look at UMNO in the context of politics.
If we define politics to be the art of struggling, achieving and maintaining power, the present UMNO must be treated accordingly.
That is to treat UMNO as a diminished power, a shell of its former self and just a paper tiger. Not to elevate UMNO to prominence as if it has the Devine right to govern.
The reality is , UMNO is barely surviving on a respiratory machine provided by PH. Let us ease its passing and not give it more oxygen .
It seems, now is the season when crooked UMNO lawbreakers get off the hook. They are tried but eventually, acquitted. Bung Mokhtar joins the long list of UMNO rogues to be exculpated. They are now whiter than a white piece of cloth. Many of them got full acquittal. Bung Mokhtar, Azeez Rahim, Musa aman.others like Zahid got a partial acquittal. Enough to cause his supporters to celebrate. That has emboldened the UMNO hoi poloi. They are asking for a royal pardon for Ali babavum Najib. The behavior of the UMNO Malays in particular, God forbid other Malays is perplexing and personally to me, shameful. Because they are Malays and Muslims and as a bonus, UMNO they are by nature, entitled to special privileges and concessions. If they break the law they can be excused. They expect some leniency. That goes for being bumiPutra what. Notice that the phrase bumiPutra, has Bumi at the back, Putra at the front . All other citizens take a backseat to the bumiPutras and within the Malay race, the Putras come first. The Putra of the royalty, elite and the folks on the hill. People like Najib, because he is bumiPutra and a member of the aristocracy is entitled to special concessions. If he is jailed for 12 years now, he should get a 30% discount and because the king is seen as king to UMNO people only, he deserves complete freedom. To plunder more. The king is king to 32 million Malaysians less Najib. But you may wonder, who let these dogs and mongrels out? It's the Sungai long Bolshevik, the LV liberal, the latte socialist. He has accumulated a team of useful idiots now headed by the jawa penorogo.
1. Just a short commentary. What's our reaction upon hearing that the uncouth and unciviliized sorry excuse of a man, bung Mokhtar is acquitted!
2. Like my Chinese colleagues in shell used to say,' niama pukluk and tiu nia Seng
3. Don't ask me what they meant. I am not even whether the terms in the Chinese language exist .
4. But I am pretty sure that they were some pejorative terms said, when somethings are disagreeable with you.
5. I think that's what many of us, I included want to say upon hearing the oaf Bung Mokhtar got acquitted. Niama pukluk, niama kahai , tiu nia Seng and puki lu punya ama
6. That last derisive term was actually said to me. Many years ago, when I was 12, I think, at a very impressionable age, where somethings you remember for life. I was cycling from the market-yes I was doing market chores. My mother would write on a piece of paper, what to buy and I would buy them at the market .
7. I was cycling on a narrow lane ,when I knocked a Chinese man. Well not knocked but brushed him at the elbows with the handle of my bicycle. As I cycled past him, I turned around and said, sorry towkay
8. Instead of accepting my apologies, he barked at me and said, ' puki lu punya ama.'
9. My sentiments exactly, upon hearing the proboscis monkey got acquitted. He is mp of kebinatangan right?
10. Well, kinabitangan actually, but who effing cares .
11. Who let the dogs out,?. Ultimately, it's mamu Anwar. Through his pious but pompous, I tak campur urusan kehakiman .
12. Sure, those immediately responsible include the not so clever prosecution team, the cleverer defense team, the compliant judge and the bomohs in attendance. But ultimately it's papa Non and I will tell you why.
13. At this juncture, let me tell you about the paradox of the idle bystander and the drowning man.
14. A person standing idle, does nothing but watches another person drown, so the shyster lawyer says, is not liable in law. But as soon as he helps, but does not help properly, below the standard duty of care, he maybe liable in law .
15. That sounds a bit shitty to me. Your proximity to the drowning man, either physically or in terms of relationship between civilised people, precludes you from saying you are not legally responsible or that you owe no duty of care. You do .
16. Secondly, your behavior is not the behavior of the fabled reasonable man. A reasonable man would do anything to help. Extend a branch, throw a rope, a life ring, do something
17. So standing idle, doing nothing is unconscionable.
18. Regrettably, Anwar is like the idle bystander. He declares piously but pompously, that he does not interfere with the judiciary and law. That declaration only reveals the hypocrisy of the man.
19. As pm , he owes us all a duty to prevent a travesty of justice. Just as the idle bystander owes a duty to help the drowning man.
20. He is briefed, reads the Intel reports-he knows the proboscis monkey is guilty as hell. By doing nothing, he perpetuates a travesty of justice .
21. A good manager does his job right. A good leader does the right thing. By not doing anything, he is just a 2 bit manager .
22. Perhaps my DAP colleagues will rethink about Anwar. Whether he is just a 2 bit manager, or the leader we want .
23. So who let the dogs out? Papa Non be is the answer. Who shot the Robin?I said the sparrow. With my bow and arrow, I shot the Robin.
It has been months, after mp William Leong, told parliament and the public hears it. The community he heads, will call the two Ronnies, the present AG and his predecessor to explain the DNAAgate. Until now, there's nothing. Perhaps William Leong is hoping, with the passage of time, all is forgotten. I was disappointed too, when the MP of kota Melaka seemed apologetic about the DNAA. Instead Of Asking Probing And Robust Questions about a dubious DNAA, he berated opposition MPs for making noises about the DNAA. The issue is the DNAA not the normal conduct of the noisy opposition MPs. The DAP too had politely asked for an explanation from the AGC. It seems the request is politely swept under the plush carpets of Putrajaya . DAP has since been quiet on the issue. The public sees the DAP as the bastion and an uncompromising fighter against all forms of social injustices. Don't betray this trust . The DAP is recalcitrant, obstinate and even evasive about playing its role as the mouthpiece of all law abiding citizens and right thinking members of the public. It is diffident and unassertive and not robust when asking the government. For these reasons, I am again posting the article. When will the Two Ronnies be called?
1. I don't care about other political parties, especially the opposition PN, over the vociferous noises they made over zahid's infamous DNAA. They're eager to win brownie points.
2. I am however, disappointed with the DAP, over its overall reticence, restrained articulations, laconic and almost mousy utterances, except for a few truncated typical opposition against jahids DNAA.
3. This kind of submissive behavior is so out of character with DAP. It has been perceived as being the vanguard in the fight against all forms of social injustices, indiscretions, corruption etc. Now, it seems to have accepted as trade off between shutting up and elevating the infamous DNAA to prominence.
4. As my former colleagues in shell would likely say, tiu kaw, tiu nia Seng !
5. DAP is politely and courteously asking the AGC to provide an explanation. In actuality, it doesn't accept the DNAA and yet it's worshipping the DNAA at the altar and for good measure, burning joss sticks
6. For God sake,si Fu, ah soh, ah Kong, this is not a political Phillips curve trade off . You don't pay for the blasted DNAA by zipping up
7. If DAP wants to do that,sit down in a corner, eat Bak kut teh, draw a painting or make an embroidery. Then asks the AGC to come up with for a sanitized explanation of the DNAA .
8. DAP needs to say clearly and emphatically to thick headed AGC, that it doesn't agree with the DNAA. It wants an explanation that convinces DAP and the public.
9. Better still , DAP prepares its own legal reasons opposing the DNAA. But release the document containing its reasons at the same time as the parliamentary committee sees the former and present AG. That way, the 2 AGs cannot prepare their answer tailored to circumvent DAPs objections .
10. Surely, DAP lawyers can list down all the technical arguments for objecting the DNAA. These are necessary but not sufficient. The technical objections must be tempered with wisdom and compassion which can only come from listening to the public. The people find the DNAA repulsive and obnoxious.
11. The statement by mp William Leong is welcomed. He told parliament that the committee he heads, would call the former and present AGs.
12. But we can't help feeling that the committee hearing will be a whitewash. The 2 AGs will come up with cerita Mak nenek .
13. If we are sincere about reaching the truth, why not also call the former head of prosecution, Raja rozela?
14. Perhaps, not only she could enlighten us about the prosecution, but for good measure, tell the committee why she was euphemistically asked to retire?
15. I am however a bit disappointed when the mp from kota Melaka spoke on the matter . What he spoke didn't serve any purpose -does DAP agree with the DNAA or does it not? That is the point.
16. He spoke about the formation of a committee headed by William Leong and the inclusion into that committee, the mischievous noise Maker, shahidan Kassim. For what purpose? Possibly to appear one up over shahidan .
17. I am not even sure whether attendance of the AGs before bill leongs committee is mandatory unlike appearance before the PAC .
18. When kota Melaka spoke about the matter, it's as though he regretted that the thunder of the DNAA issue was mostly monopolized by the opposition instead of the DAP. What to do?
19. If he regrets, then it is justified. People looked upon DAP as the rampart and bulwark in the fight against any forms of social injustices.
20. There is a quote wrongly attributed to e. Burke that reads, there's only one thing necessary for an evil to triumph. That is when good men stand idle. Corruption will triumph, when DAP is hesitant.
1. UMNO has 2 chances in the kemaman by election. Slim and none.
2. UMNO overestimates it's importance and it's relevance to any Malay interests .
3. The hard truth is , UMNO is no longer a mandatory requirement for the survival of the Malays in particular and Malaysia in general. UMNOs dismal results in the 2022 elections showed us that . UMNO is simply not relevant to Malaysia. A good government is and that minus UMNO.
4. The harder truth is, Malays and Malaysians picked themselves up, by pulling their own bootstraps.
5. This is UMNOs basic problem. It approaches the kemaman by election, as it does all elections and by elections.
The way UMNO approaches any elections has always been the same and characteristic of UMNO. It's the way of the arrogant, supercilious, pompous and conceited bastard. The embodiment of such attitude can be seen in the person of the UMNO youth chief. Such a character is only much loved by a degenerate like Tajuddin Rahman.
6. It's overall cocksure attitude, will prove to be UMNOs, to use the famous term used by F.A.Hayek, fatal conceit .
7. UMNO just can't shirk off its elitist and feudalistic psyche. As if affirming it's pompous attitude, it has to pick a brahmin candidate, a former defense chief
8. Well, like policeman, the general, upon retirement will discover, he has few civilian friends. And furthermore like Zahid once said, we will not support a candidate who enters our house, by jumping through the window.
9. So when the former army chief says he has a duty to serve, as a good soldier, he has it coming.
10. He is under a duty to serve alright, as a useful idiot and and as a sacrificial lamb.
11. Thus far, we have cited several reasons why UMNOs chances are slim and none. First, UMNO is not a determinant for the betterment of Malays and Malaysians. Second, people abhor UMNOs pomposity. 3rd, UMNO has chosen a wrong candidate, parachuted from somewhere .
12. Come to think of it, I too have a call of duty-to go to the toilet.
13. Do we see people dropping dead like flies because UMNO is not the government and the people not represented by UMNO MPs or ADUNs?
14. No is the answer which means that an UMNO government, MPs or ADUNs are NOT required. The betterment of the people is not dependent on UMNO. They need a good government.
15 . A good and an effective government under an effective leadership. Now the present terenganu government may not fit the bill 100%, maybe 60 to 70%, but that is enough for the people.
16. The pas government in Terengganu may be so so, but the people have demonstrated that they are willing to forgo the promise of meterial benefits sold by UMNO, in exchange for the promise of spiritual salvation sold by pas
17. Even though the promise of spiritual salvation is often ludicrous and absurd. Such as guaranteeing going to heaven or building an ecclesiastical government .
18. But compared to the crass materialism and the attendant widespread corruption which is taken as a normal characteristic of being a Malay, the kemaman voters are willing to forfeit them in favour of the promise of spiritual salvation.
19. What does PAS offer? A decent government acceptable enough, a promise of spiritual salvation and a generally universally accepted candidate
20. What does UMNO offer in return? A conceited, arrogant and hubristic attitude.
21. UMNO still thinks it's number one in Malaysian politics. So it offers the same stale stock in trade.
It thinks the Terengganu and kemaman people would succumb to its offer of material progress and development.
23.umno misses the point. The point is the people in kemaman attach lesser importance to material bribes than religious salvation, however absurd the latter may sound.
24. The kemaman voters can see through the farce and superficialities of the UMNO election machinery. There's nothing the cartoonic mat sabu or the big guns in PKR can do.
25. UMNO remains its usual self; an unrepentant, condemned and delusional creature. It's leaders exhibit the same obnoxious habits .
26. From the mindless diatribes of the UMNO youth chief, to the thuggish demeanor of wak jahid and to the comical Antic of lil' Lan, the pontian gnome, UMNO is its despicable self .
27. UMNOs campaigns are nothing more than political entertainment and storytelling about nothing. It can't campaign saying the DAP will control the government because it's not true. And also because it has been telling that lie all the while.
28. The most idiotic statement to come out from the mouth of the UMNO president took place when he said that PAS is in panic mode and has no candidate when it fielded the MB as its candidate .
29. The Javanese neanderthal is unaware of what sun Tzu said. Sun Tzu says, nothing is lost more than by doing things halfway. When confronting the enemy, destroy him in body and spirit.
30. PAS is more aware of the infidel sun Tzu's theory on war than Zahid. That's why they put up the MB as candidate. Destroy the body and spirit. They are out to win not to humour Zahid.
31. And poor lil' Lan, the pontian gnome was made to dress up to show UMNOs religiosity. Replete with skull cap and maybe sarong and robe, to show his Islamic credentials.
32. But the people of kemaman all know its all fake. And I know for a fact, that the UMNO people are allergic to mosques and suraus .
33. Which can only mean that the UMNO kemaman division under the leadership of the moron Mat Said has neglected the spiritual brainwashing, indoctrination and pontification aspects of local politics.
34. And now, UMNO will reap what it sowed. It's own laggardness and indolence are capitalised by PAS. Its a by election UMNO chooses to lose.
35. When push comes to shove, UMNO can't deliver the goods. It can only win in areas where the majority of voters are as bigotted as them.
36. It's inconceivable that the people of terenganu who had voted 100% for PAS would now give UMNO a beachhead. Furthermore, the decision of the election court was really faulting the kemaman voters for being 'cheap' enough to be bribed. They will now punish UMNO for this insolence.
37. For these reasons, I say UMNOs chances in the kemaman by-election are slim and none.
1. Someone sent me this video clip. This prompted me to give a few comments.
2. I am very disappointed with the quality of the reply. I hope I am not alone feeling disappointed.
3. The answer was confusing and very very off tangent. Very off the mark.
4. The pm was ill prepared. The research officers at the PM's department did not brief the pm on a very current topic and must have been scratching their balls . Hey, be ready at my typical colourful description .
5. The pm was asked on the Gaza flotilla issue. Why did Malaysia regard it as an important issue. It's just inconceivable that the research officers at the PM's department do not stay abreast on this issue. You suckers telah menjatuhkan kemaluan Pak Nana. sungguh kurang sopan!
6. Before we go discussing as to why Malaysia regarded the issue as important, let's discuss what the episode reveals about the PM. This is based solely on the conduct of the PM at the Washington interview . Remember that
7. The few things we can discerned of the pm is follows. A. The pm is incapable of giving a direct answer. B. The pm isn't witty enough to give an impromptu answer C. Different question asked, different answer given. It shows that the PM cannot stick to one theme and his mind meanders. D. More damaging, it can mean you can't hold the PM on his words. Anything in his mind is ephemeral . Or to put it more bluntly, you can't trust him.
8. The last observation comes at no surprise. Promises given were a thing of the past, promises broken are a thing of the present.
9. What's the impact? The impact is, it affects your political longevity. You can't stay long as a leader, if you keep reneging on your promises. If you promised something, you'd better carry them out.
10. So far we have little done in the way of weeding out corruption, wastage, abuse of power, ensuring the country is run on law and order. There is law, but order is sacrificed. The DNAA given to Zahid, shows that order has been thrown out of the window.
11. Law and order requires that stiffer and proportionate sentences be given to law breakers and not watered down sentences. If powerful law breakers do not mind commiting crimes knowing they would possibly get discharged, they would happily commit them. The powerless and voiceless will be at the mercy of the full extent of the law.
12. The slippery answer given by the PM, reveals that he is a person driven more by what is more convenient and advantageous to him. Shifting from answering the flotilla issue and rambling on the Allah issue, shows that he will avoid answering an inconvenient issue and talked about unrelated issue .
13. To me, that means we can't hold on to his words. He will avoid tackling the hard issue and would rather move on to subjects over which he has rhetorical mastery .
14. Which leads us to believe that most of what he spoke and speaks on stage, were and are all empty rhetoric. He will probably allow the exact opposite to happen.
15. Then it will be more of the same. More and widespread corruption, more wastage, more abuse of power, more embezzlement and sakau.
16. He will encourage us to forget and stay muted on Zahid DNAA issue, brushed aside the issue of the purchase of expired vaccine and probably 'fondle' the issue of giving Ali babavum Najib a royal pardon.
17.its obvious, the pm can't give a direct answer. This can mean he doesn't know this subject, ill advised by his research officers. Sack them because their lethargy and deficiencies all all borne by the PM.
18. Unlike Mahathir, the PM showed he isn't worthy enough to give an ascerbic rejoinder. An opportunity to condemn Israel and its chief benefactor, the apple pie imperialist
19. Just so, why is the flotilla issue important? Chiefly because it's simply against human decency and must be roundly condemned .
20. First what right has a well armed country to put up a blockade against an emaciated people? It's the same like starving the Gazians, 'austhwitzing' them.
21. On 31st May 2023, a flotilla of 6 ships carrying much needed aid were to arrive at a port in gaza.they were attacked by Israeli ships and resulted in the death of 10 volunteer, mostly Turkish people .
22. In the first place, the blockade cannot be justified on any grounds. It should be condemned as armed bullying .
23. But it's the muted response by the west, especially USA, Europe and UK that is despicable. Malaysian condemns the farce and duplicity .
24. Their common response reveals:- A. The hypocrisy of western diplomacy B. The western supremacy complex C. Islamahobic and anti Islam D. Residual racism of the west.
25. The representation of these elements makes the flotilla issue important to Malaysia and other countries .
26. The flotilla issue reveals the hypocrisy of western/white diplomacy. They bend backwards to excuse Israel of doing every unconscionable atrocities . Using their 'white' diplomacy they confer upon Israel the right of defending itself while refusing the same right for coloured Palestinians. Theirs is a lollipop diplomacy, licked by a tongue not unlike that of a chameleon's, a tongue that curls backwards .
27. Western, especially USA diplomacy really consists of subterfuge pitting off one party against another, but actually benefiting their choice party. While comforting the Palestinian with false promises, they applaud the Israelis for removing the stones in their Shoes.
28. Thinking about it seriously, you will realise that western and especially US diplomacy is an extension of supremacism in various forms, in their political intercourse. The Palestinians are really screwed.
29. Supremacism,being the belief by one particular group(read the west) that it is and will always be superior than non west culture.
30. The supremacism of the west is it almost always, based on its belief that the west is superior in terms of:- A. Culture B.Religiosity C. Morality D. Ethnicity and racial. This refers to the the residual racism encoded in the deep recesses of their emotional constitution. But it's always there and resurfaces under the name, diplomacy.
31. Now , there is new form of supremacist thinking, espounded by people like sueElla Braverman of the world, which is that the Palestinians are like that, because it's their life choice.
32. It's the fault of the Palestinians. They chose a life of the homeless, living in squalor and smeared in holy camel dung.
33. Correspondingly, the west does a service to humanity, by worsening the situation of the Palestinians. Lets hasten the ethnic cleansing because the west can't stand the sight of them.
34. The flotilla issue is important to Malaysia because aggression cannot be tolerated. The blockade is wrong
35. The issue is also important because western response is essentially, disguised bigotry hiding all the supremacist values we mentioned above.
36. Hence, the PC in Washington was important because it revealed some hard truths .
37. It certainly showed the shallowness and infirmativeness of the PM's political constitution. It revealed the the PM has the tendency to sweep the principal issue and veered to pontificating on issues he is comfortable with, but people in the audience know nuts of
38. Nearer to home, we can certainly deduce, the PM will sweep the major issues under the thick Putrajaya carpets .We most likely won't be hearing about the LCS scandal, the OPV issue, the howitzer cannon issue , purchase of unusable ventilators, purchase of expired vaccines etc. But we will be hearing more of his personal vendetta issues about him settling old scores.
39. The Washington PC certainly exposed the West's hypocrisy in more ways than one.
40. Many friends find it hard to believe that my continuous harsh criticisms of the PM, I still am supportive of him. Yes I do, for the reasons I have said in previous articles. He remains the best hope for Malaysia, provided he's willing to listen
41. No, I won't throw him under the bus but I won't stay silent either. The PM requires guard rails to help him walk on the slippery road of the country's leadership.
1. Two things that Machiavelli said, remained fresh in my mind all the time.
2. The first was that ' the vulgar people are always taken in by appearance and the world is full of them .
3. Translated into more current terms, it would read as the idiotic people are taken in by appearances and the world is full of them.
4. Hence, the idiots would typically say, hey the pm kuat kerja gila. They would say this in such forceful manner, as though the manner in which they say it, would suggest that's it's an uncontestable truth
5. Perhaps they are taken in when the pm appears to working maddeningly hard when eating at warungs here and there, praying here there and everywhere, escorted by a phalanx of bodyguards including now, security details in dark glasses running alongside his car all of which convinced the idiots, PM kuaat kerja gila woi .
6. We have never seen security details running alongside the PM's official car before. The present PM must indeed be working kuat gila! To the point that his own personal safety is compromised .
7. The seriousness of the compromised security issue is sufficient to prompt the IGP to say, the PM's personal safety is top security. Don't play play!
8. So he puts security details running alongside the PM's official car. Like the American President. The Malaysian El presidente!
9. Maybe the threats against the PM are real. Who are we to question matters of security? Only mahiadin and Hamzah will dispute it. But we must also not dismiss the possibility the PM enjoys big burly and sweaty big asses running infront of him . Waduuh!
10. But like Walter Mondale said, following ms Clara Peller in the Wendy commercial said, where's the beef!!!!
11. The whirlwind assertion that the PM kuat kerja gila, must be evidenced by the results that matter, produced. And the results are dismal.
12. Where are the results of the PM's kuat kerja gila my bigmouth friend? There are shortages of rice, cooking oil and other food items. The ringgit is very down. Inflation despite the yearbook explanation by the senator minister, is high. The economy overall, has bombed. The result of kuat kerja gila?
13. The shortage of rice, poultry and other foodstuff is very depressing. This reflects the buffoonery of the said minister.
14. Although he is my friend, his incompetence in terms of work, won't insulate him from my usual strident criticisms.
15. When he replied a question in parliament by asking the questioner, why he eats more expensive imported rice, I thought that was a 'Poh Kee Mak' answer. I am not swearing ya, that's a name of a character in Pak Sako's novel, in case you don't know.
16. It didn't occur to him, some of us buy more expensive imported rice is because we can't buy locally produced rice.
17. So, the myth about the PM kerja kuat gila, is made worse by having incompetent fools in his cabinet.
18. Because vulgar people are taken in by appearances, it remains for Anwar to manage his appearance, image and perception .
19. There will always be useful idiots like the mp from Hulu Langat,who will amplify, embellish and perpetuate the farcical image.
20. In truth, Anwar maybe far removed from the appearances his image want us to believe. He actually maybe an obnoxious fellow, develish and imperial and Mandarin like. He surrounds himself with lackeys who will work overtime to preserve his imperial self. And there will always be useful idiots who will chorus the farce .
21. Meanwhile, Pak Nana will capitalise on the idiocy of the majority.
