Abdullah Ang VIP Kajang prisoner
On Aug 11, 1989, Malay Mail carried a report of corporate figure Abdullah Ang who, while being held in Kajang Prison, was allowed to commute regularly between jail and the city. Ang was said to have been sighted at his family’s factory at Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur, without guards two days before he was supposed to be released.

The story o 3 sons
Malaysian Parliament
In our Parliament recently, an UMNO MP during his speech told a story.....
"There was a father who gave RM100/- each to his 3 sons and asked them to buy things and fill up a room completely.
First son bought hay for RM100/- but couldn't fill the room entirely.
Second son bought cotton for RM100/- but couldn't fill the room entirely.
Third son bought a candle for RM1/- and lit it up and the room was filled with light completely."
The proud UMNO MP declared: "Our Prime Minister NAJIB is like the third son. From the day he has taken charge of his office, our country is filled with the bright light of prosperity."
A voice from the backbench asked, "Where is the remaining RM99/-??"
Now the whole nation is asking this same question!!

Zizek wrote on the hypocracy of the western nations in RT.com
Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Zizek has defended publishing his writings on RT, pointing out in an op-ed published in Germany’s Berliner Zeitung on Sunday that stories and opinions that are overlooked or even prohibited on the pages of the Western press can find safe harbor in the Moscow-based outlet.
“Am I ashamed to have published my texts in Russia Today? No, absolutely not!” Zizek wrote.

While the philosopher professed “full support of Ukraine,” he insisted that this stance did not contradict his previous writings for RT at all, calling it “part of the same fight” in the same manner that “fighting anti-Semitism and fighting what Israel is doing to the Palestinians in the West Bank” are not mutually exclusive.
As the range of allowed opinions in Western media narrowed, he said he had no choice but to turn to RT to publish his own views, citing “weaknesses of liberal democracy, Israel’s policy of apartheid in the West Bank, [and] the aberrations of political correctness” as examples of topics considered off-limits in the Western press.
The philosopher specifically highlighted the saga of Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange, whose case, he has repeatedly argued, highlights the extraordinary hypocrisy of the US and UK governments, who style themselves as defenders of democracy and the free press while fighting to lock up a man whose only “crime” was to publish leaked documents that revealed wartime atrocities committed by those governments.
While the entirety of the Western media was fixated on the war in Ukraine, Assange was being drawn ever closer to extradition to the US, where he is charged with 17 counts of violating the Espionage Act and will almost certainly die in prison, Zizek pointed out. New developments in the case have been all but ignored in the US and European press.
“How can [Washington] demand Assange’s extradition to the US when Assange is not a US citizen, was not involved in espionage against the US and all he did was, without a doubt publicize war crimes committed by the US?” he asked rhetorically, pointing out that Assange faces 175 years in prison “for merely exposing US crimes beyond reproach.”

Commenting on calls for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be tried for alleged war crimes in Ukraine, Zizek argued for former president George W. Bush, as well as his defense secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, if he were still alive, to be similarly tried for the invasion of Iraq under manufactured pretenses. The West and Russia must be interrogated with “the same critical questions,” he said. “How can the US demand this while not recognizing the jurisdiction of the Hague tribunal over its own citizens?”
Neither ‘side’ should be considered immune from criticism, Zizek argued. “If we are forced to choose between Ukraine and Assange, we are doomed. Then we have sold our soul to the devil.”

Vernacular schools and national unity
There are people, mainly the Malays and Muslims who takes the view that there should only be 1 national schools. They claim that vernacular schools segregate races are a hindrance to national unity. But what are the real reasons for the minorities preferring to send their children to vernacular schools? And are they the reason for Malaysians disunity? What probably would happen if a teacher in the vernacular schools were to pray Hindu/Buddist/Taoist/Christian prayers before starting a class?
It should be valid to believe that the Malay/Muslims will start a huge hue and cry.
Let me take myself and my children to illustrate. I previously stayed at a different town/city from where I am staying currently. And there was a national school within short walking distance from my home then. So it is natural for me to send my child to that school. Not long after she enrolled, I went to observe the class she was in. And what did I see? I saw the teacher praying a Muslim prayer before she started the class. And almost 100% of the class was Malays and I assume Muslims.
And let us fast forward to the present. Why are the minority races not sending their children to the national schools preferring either to send them to the vernacular schools or if they can afford it, to the international schools? The NEP (New Economic Policy was meant to remove/reduce the imbalance between the races. When it was first introduced, the Malays were mostly staying in the rural areas and they were relatively poorer than the other races, especially the Chinese. The professions (Doctors/Lawyers/Accountants etc) were mostly non-Malays, non-Muslims. So I plus many of other Malaysians would support the NEP. But the NEP was supposed to be for a limited period and not a never ending perpetual policy.
And it is the views of many that the standards were purposely lowered to help the non-Malays move up the ladder. If that is true it would not be wrong to expect the standards to drop.
So many of the non-Malays now believe the standard of teaching has dropped tremendously in the national schools. They are also of the opinions that there is a drive to promote Islams. Plus many believe that discipline is stricter and standards are higher in the vernacular schools. Many also believe that students from the vernacular schools are more disciplined plus better in the Mathematics and sciences.
I believe the non-Muslims and I was told an increasing numbers of Malays are also sending their children to the vernacular schools especially the Chinese medium schools. Are these valid reasons for preferring the vernacular schools?

PRAYER ALERT from PRAYER UNITED:
Although official results are not fully in, partly because some SPR officers are delaying signing off on the results, Pakatan Harapan & its Sabah ally, Warisan, has won an overwhelming electoral victory in GE14. Can we urge all of us to get our networks to really pray through the next 24 hours for the following:
1. First, that all those in authority will act responsibly to accept the results of the election and help work towards a smooth transition in the government; and that all hanky-panky attempts to change any results will be stopped or hindered from being effective.
2. Second, please pray that the Lord who is sovereign over our nation will pour His SHALOM, His peace, upon our land. Pray that the fear of God will envelop the whole nation so that evil men or women, as well as demonic powers that seeks to bring civil disorder and violence will be restrained. Remember Eph 6:12.
3. Pray that everyone, Christians included, will be responsible and sensitive so as not to provoke those who have been identified with BN. We should therefore avoid sending out offensive and provocative messages, photos and videos, or anything else that may be inflammatory in the present political context.
There will be other things that the Lord will lay in your hearts to pray for. But do activate your networks and urge them to take our responsibility to pray for the nation's welfare seriously. We must, as Paul reminds us, "Pray without ceasing!" (1 Thess 5:17)

If governance in Malaysia doesn't improve, this could happen
What could happen? Argentina raise interest rate to 40%. See
http://www.bbc.com/news/business-44001450
Malaysia is blessed with much natural resources such as petroleum, fertile land which produces cash crops such as oil palm, rubber trees, trees for timber, etc. However, because of widespread corruption and leakages, there is much loss of public money but things were still manageable because of Malaysia resources. But if continued, Malaysia may slip down the slippery slope to economic crisis.
Malaysia previously had much highly educated human resources many bilingual and multilingual, conversant in English, the de facto world language. However, the human resources of our country has to a great degree been lost to other country because of bad policies. We are exporting talent while taking in lowly educated unskilled workers. In fact, the late Lee Kuan Yew had laughed at us because of this.
If ever Malaysia's currency falls further, the interest rate may be raised like Argentina. Then we will have hyper inflation. There is a saying, things in Malaysia will not change (for the better) until the people suffers. The people are already suffering now, but because of the unique situation in Malaysia, things may still not change for the better if the people do not vote for change.
Perhaps the people are not suffering enough yet. But if ever things become like Argentina where interest rate is raised to 40% and perhaps more and hyper inflation occurs, then perhaps the greater sufferings may force the rakyat to vote for change (for the better)

Why UMNO/BN is bad for the country
Yes, why I believe UMNO/BN is bad for Malaysia. Reasons can easily be seen if you are unbiased. The main reason is UMNO/BN practices patronage and money politics.
Why is patronage bad for Malaysia? Because get voted into positions wielding power in their political power, they need to buy support from warlords, division heads. And division heads in turn need to buy support from division members. Not only that, while the opposition volunteers generally work for free, UMNO/BN volunteers needs money in cash or kind to work, etc.
And because of this need for money to buy support, there is tendency to get money unethically. So there you have it all.

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
If this do not move a patriotic Malaysian,nothing can.
Get up! Stand up! Stand up for our rights!
Copied from write up by Mej Mior Rosli TUDM (Rtd)
Good afternoon to all. The fight for a free Malaysia must go on!
Let us get one thing clear – the country and the government are separate entities. Governments come and go, the country is eternal.
We owe our allegiance to the country, not to the government.
Therefore, saying bad things about a bad government is not being anti-national. Most important of all, voting against a bad government is not being anti-national.
A bad government does not deserve loyalty. Disloyalty to the government is not disloyalty to the country; in fact, voting out a bad government is being loyal to the country.
Today, Malaysia woke up and many hearts were broken.
We mourn our nation not because we lost, but because we were cheated.
We lost not to a better party, but we lost to injustice.
We lost not to a better system, but we lost to the lack of integrity.
We lost not to a better count, but we lost to the failure in upholding civil rights
We lost not to a better leader, but we lost to corruption.
We lost not to a better policy, but we lost to deceit.
But we will, and must not, lose heart.
We may feel sad, but we must not give way to despair.
We may feel angry, but we must not lose our righteous ways.
We may feel cheated, but we must fight on.
We may feel like leaving, but we must stay together.
We may feel like giving up, but we must now let the dream carry us.
We may feel like nothing will change, but we must now become that change.
Bersih spirit lives on!
We will rally.
We will fight on.
We will not give up.
We will become a Better Malaysia.
Clean elections
Clean government
Right to dissent
Save our economy
Strengthen parliamentary democracy.
Get up! Stand up! Stand up for our rights!

We lost not to a better leader, but we lost to corruption.
We lost not to a better policy, but we lost to deceit.
But we will, and must not, lose heart.
We may feel sad, but we must not give way to despair.
We may feel angry, but we must not lose our righteous ways.
We may feel cheated, but we must fight on.
We may feel like leaving, but we must stay together.
We may feel like giving up, but we must now let the dream carry us.
We may feel like nothing will change, but we must now become that change.
Bersih spirit lives on!
We will rally.
We will fight on.
We will not give up.
We will become a Better Malaysia.
Clean elections
Clean government
Right to dissent
Save our economy
Strengthen parliamentary democracy.

PAS now offers prosperous Sabah without Hudud? Not believable
The Malaysia Today reported that PAS would aim for a prosperous Sabah without Hudud. But can we trust PAS? I would say an emphatic NO!
Remember that earlier had talked about PAS for all when they contested against UMNO/BN together with the now defunct Pakatan Rakyat, but on winning the 13th General Election under Hadi leadership, they submitted a bill to the Parliament that is equivalent to introducing Hudud despite objections from other Pakatan Rakyat component parties.
Not only that, PAS wants to enforce Hudud in Peninsular Malaysia, but now offers "no Hudud" in Sabah for expediency reason merely because they want to win power in Sabah and since they have gone back on their promises (remember PAS for all? plus going against the agreement to decide on consensus basis in PR) there is no guarantee they will not go back on their promises to Sabah.
Remember decisions in Pakatan Rakyat are made subject to consensus and clearly that step to introduce the "Hudud" bill did not receive consensus of of PR component parties leading to breakup of Pakatan Rakyat.
And what did PAS do after that? PAS started overtures to get close to UMNO/BN despite knowing of all the scandals that had been committed by UMNO/BN. Not only that, they did not raise their voice against all the wrong doings of UMNO/BN including the heinous 1MDB scandal
How a party professing religion can ignore such wrong doings I do not know.

NFC tangled of weeds but Rafizi sentenced to jail
AS those who exposed the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) scandal are marched off to jail, the site of the ambitious cattle rearing project lies in a tangle of weeds.
No cows and no workers were spotted at the 600-ha NFC site in Gemas, Negri Sembilan, where RM250 million in public funds were sunk into a project that has since been left to rot.
No one has been found guilty for the failures of the project. But on February 7, Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli, who exposed NFC’s failures, was sentenced to 30 months in jail for revealing bank documents related to the project.
