Comparison: Dr. Mahathir and Tengku Razaleigh
Normally, I try to avoid copy-paste, but we have been provoked by this Dr. Mamakdir to no end and hope more thinking Malaysians will read this from Malaysiakini (Master of divide and rule) and learn to discern which of these two elders are real statesman plus how to discern when the unscrupulous try to use racism to provoke:
'Mahathir's recent comments are clearly racist, revealing his true character, and I have lost every respect for this man who, in my opinion, has taken the nation to ransom.'
On Dr M, just stay retired
The Smaller Mamakdir: I wish to respond to the letter, 'Dr M, just stay retired'.
Contrast this to that other old veteran Ku Li, who is advocating greater racial and national unity through encouraging change and acceptance of a more egalitarian Malaysian society. On the other hand, Mahathir seeks to rejuvenate his waning influence through a divide-and-rule strategy.
Mahathir's recent comments are clearly racist, revealing his true character, and I have lost every respect for this man who, in my opinion, has taken the nation to ransom. Why should a man like him keep destablising the country when his projects like the crooked bridge are abandoned?
Always Malaysian: Some quarters argued that Dr M has honed his 'divide-and-rule' tactics into a perfect art. But this may no longer be effective with the emergence of the new and free media.
Nevertheless, the public needs to be educated and enlightened on how such a strategy is being employed from time to time, regardless of whether the ruling coalition or opposition partnership may be using it. This is part and parcel of further enhancing the democratic process in the country.
Will we see a series of articles on this issue in the foreseeable future on the local and even foreign case studies of this devious art of 'divide and rule', the modus operandi of its proponents, how to detect such its manifestation, how can the public combat this socio-political menace and avoid being divided to the nation's detriment, etc?
Exposure is needed so that the public will be better informed when making political choices through the ballot box.
Malaysia is not to be divided up and ruled!
Malaysia is for all Malaysians!
Ong: Maybe the MACC advisers are not resigning because they want to follow Tun Mahathir's example. For many years, Mahathir has been complaining that although he is the Petronas adviser, his advice is never sought, and when he takes the initiative to give advice, his unsolicited advice is ignored. These MACC advisers obviously remember Mahathir's slogan "Pimpinan Melalui Teladan".
However the MACC advisers cannot be compared to Mahathir if both of their work performance are evaluated. When Mahathir sees something in Petronas which he feels is not right, he takes the initiative and springs into action with his advice and criticisms despite that they are likely to be ignored.
All the MACC advisers may be a lot younger than Mahathir, but unfortunately they appear to be a lot more lethargic compared to him. Their eyesight are not so good. What the general public can see, these advisers cannot see. Their hearing are also impaired. They cannot hear the public pleas to them to start acting their roles as advisers and watchdogs. They only manage to hear when such pleas turn to shouts.
What a pity - if only these MACC advisers follow Mahathir's leadership by example. They do not also follow Mahathir's example of springing into action even though knowing that any such action is just for show.
On Cabinet approves royal commission
Disappointed: A royal commission has been approved by the cabinet to look into the cause of Teoh Beng Hock's death? No! It is only there to look into the MACC's interrogation methods.
So, who will look into Teoh's cause of death which is what Malaysians really want to know? The court-appointed magistrate's inquest findings will only represent the judgment of a single person instead of a team of people from the royal commission. There is something wrong somewhere!
GH Kok: In view of Teoh Beng Hock's death and the pattern of MACC assault on Selangor Pakatan Rakyat government prior to that, we also hear of mysterious attempts to sabotage the Penang state government through the Kampung Buah Pala issue.
The pattern is slowly emerging of an elaborate and systematic attempt to undermine the Pakatan state governments by unseen hands working through federal agencies and other parties.
There are also theories that Najib plans to call for a general election in 2010 and therefore the pressing need to undermine and weaken the Pakatan before calling for the election.
It seems that all available weapons are now being used against Pakatan. There seems to be no limits. It started with Perak and now the campaign is in full flight simultaneously in Penang, Selangor and Kedah.
In view of this assault, it appears that Teoh Beng Hock is but a collateral damage. How many more victims of this "war" are we going to see? We the rakyat of Malaysia must stand firm against this assault.
We must keep our eyes and ears open and not participate in questionable activities. We must report to the press (online press) any suspicious happenings in our area or in the course of our daily life. Let the light shine on all happenings in every nook and cranny of this country.
The federal civil servants, who are always suppressed and bullied by their political masters, may they too shed light on all such abuses of their agencies. Bring it all out into the open and let the whole world see the truth. Courage is needed for the price of democracy is eternal vigilance.
'Mahathir's recent comments are clearly racist, revealing his true character, and I have lost every respect for this man who, in my opinion, has taken the nation to ransom.'
On Dr M, just stay retired
The Smaller Mamakdir: I wish to respond to the letter, 'Dr M, just stay retired'.
Contrast this to that other old veteran Ku Li, who is advocating greater racial and national unity through encouraging change and acceptance of a more egalitarian Malaysian society. On the other hand, Mahathir seeks to rejuvenate his waning influence through a divide-and-rule strategy.
Mahathir's recent comments are clearly racist, revealing his true character, and I have lost every respect for this man who, in my opinion, has taken the nation to ransom. Why should a man like him keep destablising the country when his projects like the crooked bridge are abandoned?
Always Malaysian: Some quarters argued that Dr M has honed his 'divide-and-rule' tactics into a perfect art. But this may no longer be effective with the emergence of the new and free media.
Nevertheless, the public needs to be educated and enlightened on how such a strategy is being employed from time to time, regardless of whether the ruling coalition or opposition partnership may be using it. This is part and parcel of further enhancing the democratic process in the country.
Will we see a series of articles on this issue in the foreseeable future on the local and even foreign case studies of this devious art of 'divide and rule', the modus operandi of its proponents, how to detect such its manifestation, how can the public combat this socio-political menace and avoid being divided to the nation's detriment, etc?
Exposure is needed so that the public will be better informed when making political choices through the ballot box.
Malaysia is not to be divided up and ruled!
Malaysia is for all Malaysians!
Ong: Maybe the MACC advisers are not resigning because they want to follow Tun Mahathir's example. For many years, Mahathir has been complaining that although he is the Petronas adviser, his advice is never sought, and when he takes the initiative to give advice, his unsolicited advice is ignored. These MACC advisers obviously remember Mahathir's slogan "Pimpinan Melalui Teladan".
However the MACC advisers cannot be compared to Mahathir if both of their work performance are evaluated. When Mahathir sees something in Petronas which he feels is not right, he takes the initiative and springs into action with his advice and criticisms despite that they are likely to be ignored.
All the MACC advisers may be a lot younger than Mahathir, but unfortunately they appear to be a lot more lethargic compared to him. Their eyesight are not so good. What the general public can see, these advisers cannot see. Their hearing are also impaired. They cannot hear the public pleas to them to start acting their roles as advisers and watchdogs. They only manage to hear when such pleas turn to shouts.
What a pity - if only these MACC advisers follow Mahathir's leadership by example. They do not also follow Mahathir's example of springing into action even though knowing that any such action is just for show.
On Cabinet approves royal commission
Disappointed: A royal commission has been approved by the cabinet to look into the cause of Teoh Beng Hock's death? No! It is only there to look into the MACC's interrogation methods.
So, who will look into Teoh's cause of death which is what Malaysians really want to know? The court-appointed magistrate's inquest findings will only represent the judgment of a single person instead of a team of people from the royal commission. There is something wrong somewhere!
GH Kok: In view of Teoh Beng Hock's death and the pattern of MACC assault on Selangor Pakatan Rakyat government prior to that, we also hear of mysterious attempts to sabotage the Penang state government through the Kampung Buah Pala issue.
The pattern is slowly emerging of an elaborate and systematic attempt to undermine the Pakatan state governments by unseen hands working through federal agencies and other parties.
There are also theories that Najib plans to call for a general election in 2010 and therefore the pressing need to undermine and weaken the Pakatan before calling for the election.
It seems that all available weapons are now being used against Pakatan. There seems to be no limits. It started with Perak and now the campaign is in full flight simultaneously in Penang, Selangor and Kedah.
In view of this assault, it appears that Teoh Beng Hock is but a collateral damage. How many more victims of this "war" are we going to see? We the rakyat of Malaysia must stand firm against this assault.
We must keep our eyes and ears open and not participate in questionable activities. We must report to the press (online press) any suspicious happenings in our area or in the course of our daily life. Let the light shine on all happenings in every nook and cranny of this country.
The federal civil servants, who are always suppressed and bullied by their political masters, may they too shed light on all such abuses of their agencies. Bring it all out into the open and let the whole world see the truth. Courage is needed for the price of democracy is eternal vigilance.

MACC lied, claimed Lim Guan Eng
Last night at the Teoh Beng Hock Memorial Vigil, Lim Guan Eng accused MACC of lying regarding CCTV for the Selangor MACC office. Why questioned why the MACC office do not have CCTV, MACC claimed they only just shifted in a "short while" ago. Checks later turned out that MACC had actually shifted into its office at Plaza Masalam 2 years ago.

Teoh Beng Hock Memorial KL-Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall
It was full house and standing room only at the Teoh Beng Hock Memorial Vigil tonight at the KL-Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall. Among the speaker was R. Sivarasa who spoke about the culture of impunity practiced by the current UMNO/BN government which was the reason why matters in Malaysia has sunk to such low scandalous levels. The culture of impunity is the what is being practiced now in many enforcement agencies whereby they are free to do illegal things and are being protected by the UMNO/BN government. The only cure for this is to kick out the arrogant UMNO/BN government from Putrajaya (Federal power) and let a new Pakatan Rakyat Federal government to introduce reforms.
A Teoh Beng Hock Trust Fund to take care of Teoh Beng Hock's unborn child was also launched and those present gave generously. The most generous was Tan Sri Robert Phang (picture) who donated RM50,000.
Corruption Consultation and Prevention Panel member Robert Phang
THE late Teoh Beng Hock’s fiancee Soh Cher Wei was also present at the memorial. She came up to the stage to pledge to take good care of Teoh Beng Hock's unborn child (picture):

Custodial death in Malaysia
Last year in Parliament, Wan Ahmad Farid, then deputy home minister, told the Dewan Rakyat that there were 1,535 deaths in prisons, rehabilitation centres and detention centres between 2003 and 2007, averaging 383.75 deaths per year. That is 383.75/365 = 1.05 deaths per day, slightly more that 1 custodial deaths per day. It means in Malaysia there is someone dieing everyday. That is too much.
Meanwhile, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, the former prime minister, admitted that 108 persons died in police custody between 2000 and 2006, the majority of whom were Indians.

Teoh Beng Hock murder - MACC downfall
MACC Officer: We already have the fabricated documents to prove Khalid Ibrahim guilty. We will surround Khalid Ibrahim at his home like how we arrest Anwar Ibrahim.
Ahmad Said Hamdan: Yes, and we have made the boy confess that the Selangor Government misappropriate the government allocations.
MACC Officer: Err... Sir...Er... The boy didn't agree to sign the false statement, our man throw him out of the building after some struggling with him
Ahmad Said Hamdan: All of you who were not in the room when the interrogation took place. Leave now!
(all except 3 left)
Ahmad Said Hamdan: Why the hell did our man throw him out? We have planned to topple the Selangor Government for more than a year. Doesn't he know that this will ruin our plan to topple Pakatan Selangor? We have circulated the Exco nude photo, fabricated the documents to nail the MB and now the whole plan is ruined. Someone will find out that we throw the boy out of the building and that is the end of us.
MACC Officer: Sir, we will cover it up just like the Kugan case.
Ahmad Said Hamdan: Cover up my foot, the body was found under our building.
MACC Officer: Sir, we can make up the story that he committed suicide.
Ahmad Said Hamdan: No way people will believe he committed suicide, he is going to get married tomorrow. And his fiancee was pregnant for 2 months, there is no reason for people to believe he jumped down. Najib has planned this for so long and you bloody guys threw him out of the building and made a big mess. Why can't you guys do a simple job? Interrogate him and make him sign the false statement, is that too difficult? In 1998, the police forced Sukma sign a false statement to charge Anwar. Why can't MACC make the poor boy sign the false statement? Najib will be furious with this development. He will have a tough time to answer the public. Najib will stop funding us. Who is going to pay our salary? Do you think Pakatan Rakyat will fund us? They don't bloody hell have money.
MACC Office: Don't worry, we still have Khir Toyo.
Ahmad Said Hamdan: We might as well tell people the truth. Lim Kit Siang is flying here tomorrow. First flight of the day. Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Guan Eng and Khalid will be here too. There will be a huge demonstration. Tell Hishamuddin to send the FRU here first thing in the morning. We are screwed.

19 July (Sunday)
4.30 pm: Justice for Beng Hock Solidarity Gathering (organized by Selangor state government)
Stadium Kelana Jaya
Please come join us in full force to show the corrupt and useless BN government that we are serious in wanting a better Malaysia.
Location Map for Kelana Jaya Stadium
Click to enlarge:For those taking public transport, take the Kelana Jaya LRT line, get off at Kelana Jaya. I believe there is a feeder buss to the Kelana Jaya stadium as I have seen buses passing by before.
A commentator at Lim Kit Siang's blog to take the feeder bus from the Taman Bahagia LRT station. I believe that is an error as I often take feeder bus at Taman Bahagia LRT station and the feeder buses there are T625 which goes to Kelana Jaya Giant, FAM and SS3, and T626 which goes to Damansara Jaya, Damansara Utama and SS2. I have never seen any bus going to the Kelana Jaya stadium from Taman Bahagia LRT station.

Judge BN Najib by action?
Najib Abdul Razak has made some noise pleasant to the ears plus has gone on to action in liberalization of previous restrictive sectors and policies. A visitor made a remark - Najib not bad eh?
My response. Yes perhaps we should judge by Najib's action and not the dismal picture that some Malaysians have painted of him. However, actions are relatively easy to change and to fake, but I think we still have to try to look deep into the person, his character. A person's character is not as easy to change as action and anyone previously associated with the corrupt UMNO/Barisan will likely have a flawed character and we should be watchful and careful not to be deluded by a few shallow moves to right past wrongs.

Job function of a Member of Parliament
I will first use a commercial or industrial corporation as an example as that is what most people can relate to the easiest.
Each job has its function, or job description or whatever you call it. Essentially, it defines what each person holding the job is supposed to do. A janitor's job function is just to keep a place clean and tidy and no more. At the other end is a member of a board of director whose duties are to attend board of directors meetings, discuss, make policy and other very important decisions, and set the direction in which the company is to go. These decisions made by the board of directors are very important and can either set a company to great success or send it to bankruptcy. Because their job function is so important, they are normally very highly paid. A member of board of directors does not stoop down so low as to go do the job of a janitor. They have different job functions.
Similarly, Members or Parliament are like members of the board of directors of a very huge company. In this case, the company is the country. What they do in the Parliament can make a country great or send it down the gutters. Their most important job is in the Parliament, not taking care of clogged drains and pot holes. These are jobs for the City Halls or Municipality Councils. These are important, but more important are crucial issues that affect the future of the country. These matters can only be settled in the Parliament.
One more important thing. When a Member of Parliament first enters the Parliament, he or she has to make an oath to uphold, defend and preserve the Constitution. The Constitution of a country is its supreme law and is a sacred document. It is not meant to be amended just so someone, for example, the Chairman of an Election Commission, can continue to serve another term.
Now in this coming election, when you cast your vote, you must keep these in mind. You must see if the candidate, if he or she was the former Member of Parliament, have he or she fulfilled that most important job function and have uphold, defend and preserve the Constitution, something which he or she had taken an oath to do. For greater details, refer to Interview with Billi Lim, independent candidate for Kelana Jaya (click BACK button to get back to this page). How many times our Constitution had been amended was discussed in that post. In another post Haris Ibrahim's speech at the SS2 Petaling Jaya ceramah (click BACK button to get back to this page), Haris said "BN (Barisan Nasional) has been dismantling our document (Constitution) systematically. In the process, taken away our rights. In the process, taking away our Constitutional Institutions.
The statement below was taken from PJ Utara: A choice between local service and parliamentary voice:
Chew (Chew Mei Fun) remains unperturbed by Opposition claims that she is more concerned about drains than speaking up on her constituents’ behalf in parliament. “They can say things which sound very ideal but in the end can they deliver?” she says. “I believe that with hard work and my track record, I have set a strong foundation and the support for me is there.”
The question we need to ask ourselves is, what Chew Mei Fun did when all those bills to amend the Constitution were tabled at the Parliament. Did she take into the consideration of whether her Constituent wants it? What about the future of the country? Deliver? Deliver what? Do we want better roads and drains or a better future for the country? Roads and drains can only last so long. What happens after that? Malaysia had been blessed with oil and plantations and thus had been cushioned from the flawed policies that can bring ruin to the economy. What happens when we run out of oil? I asked this to a person who claimed to be an assistant of our caretaker Deputy Prime Minister. His answer - "we will cross the bridge when we come to it." Can we afford that? Is that the way to run a country. Solve a problem only when we are faced with it? Is not wiser to take that into account when we make long term plans for the country?
The Barisan Members of Parliament are all allocated millions of ringgits to spend on their Constituent. The opposition Members of Parliament are given none. Is that fair?
We have to ask ourselves, which is more important - the future of the country, the reputation and independence of the Judiciary, or the roads and drains? When we have a problem which can only be solved in the court, we want to go to a court where we have confidence the judge's decision will be based on the Constitution and on the law. Do we have that? I do not know. But I have heard that when foreign investors draw up contracts, they specify that disputes should be settled in Singapore or United Kingdom. True or not I do not know. You will have to do your own research.
Think very hard these few days before polling date when we cast our vote. Vote for the candidate who will uphold, defend and preserve our Constitution and not let it be amended to suit the political situation.
