People like Sdr Zaid Ibrahim are a rare breed of Malays!! It is people like him, Sdr Anwar, YM Tengku Razaleigh, Sdr Khalid Samad of PAS who will bring this Nation to its former glory and more!! Even under the British, we were proud Malaysians but look at our leaders today… they don’t have a sense of shame! Just to illustrate my point: how can a bottom-pinching Malay be appointed as an Ambassador to the US? Are we to understand that there are no other decent Malays around? Where is the sense of responsibility on the part of our PM? Where is the sense of shame on the part of this Muslim Ambassador?
“ I want to make a deal….Saya tolong you… you tak payah pi Court…. Dan you tolong saya..ok ka?” Traffic victims around the country have heard this so often ( Now if the IGP had not heard this, then he must be hard of hearing!).
And yet we have none other than our PM making a deal to fish for votes so blatantly! I could not believe my eyes ( and ears ) when I saw the clip on Youtube! Again where is the sense of shame?
Just beating their chests and bleating till the cows ( or is it goats? ) come home about the fiction of “Ketuanan Melayu” would not lead the Malays anywhere! Responsible Malays like Sdr Zaid, who is a stickler for principles, are the ones who are going to make difference! It is people like the ever-changing-according-to–how-the-wind-blows Dr M and the moronic Bull Frog of Perkasa who are doing a great disservice to a once great and peaceful nation. These are people who are bent on driving a wedge between the races so that they can perennially keep their stranglehold on to political power.
But what they failed to realize ( as they failed to realize in the last GE) is that the Malays no longer look upon UMNO as the saviour of their race and religion. The modern day Malay is more colour blind and he is out there shouting to have his State-aided economic crutches or shackles be removed so that he can proudly say that whatever he achieved, he did so on a level-playing ground and not mere largesse handed out by the government.
Despite its recent setbacks through internal bickering and indiscipline amongst its members, like the fallen Phoenix, Pakatan Rakyat will rise yet again from the ashes and when that day of reckoning approaches, all that we would like to tell the BN is this: FEAR THE ELECTIONS as no amount of wheeling and dealing with the rakyat is going to fool them.

The Innocence Of datuk Ramli
Datuk Ramli Yusof is the former Director of Commercial Crime, Bukit Aman. He was charged in Court by the MACC for failing to declare his assets ( running into millions, I believe ). It has been rumoured that he was charged after there was a fall-out between him and the IGP Tan Sri Musa. It seems that Datuk Ramli tried to flex his muscle against the IGP - a case of "lawan towkay". It has also been rumoured that the charge is a culmination of a conspiracy between the IGP, the Attorney-General and the MACC.
Din Merican, in his blog, seems to assert that Datuk Ramli is an exemplary Police officer ( and by implication had earned his millions by sheer hardwork ) that that he is innocent of the charges levelled against him.
This is my response:
"Dear Sir,
I know Datuk Ramly but from afar. He isn't a saint as you make him out to be. I emphathize with his predicament ( when he was charged, his wife was still a presiding Sessions Court Judge in the same Jalan Duta Courts Complex) but that's about as far as I would go! You mean one can rake up millions by just being a very hardworking and diligent and honest Police Officer? Then you can believe that I am the King of Siam!! You mean he was set up simply because he stood his ground on matters of principle? No Sir, I beg to differ!
There is an old adage that if you want to clean the dishes, then you must be ready to get your hands dirty. So if you want to "lawan towkay" then, to put it bluntly, make sure your backside is clean. You can't have it both ways mate! ( No disrespect to Sdr Anwar!). You are either corrupt or you are not!
To digress a little,during a casual talk with YB Karpal, ( I do not know if he would recall the conversation which took place many, many years ago in the canteen of the civil courts which was then premised at Denmark House ), he mentioned that the Special Branch on the directions of the powers-that-be ( I dont want to mention names here ) were ordered to rake up on his history and conduct to see if there is anything at all they can come up with, whether real or perceived, to fix him up as YB Karpal was deemed a constant pain to the BN govt ( amazingly, he still is and I salute him for his neverending quest for peace and justice for the common man).
Not surprisingly, they couldn't come up with anything beefy enough to sully his image or character. The best they could come up with was when Tengku Adnan ( he was the Sec-Gen of UMNO then I think ) let fly some insignificant comments about the ancestral roots of YB Karpal's wife. That's how low our politicians would stoop to score brownie points.
The point I am trying to make is that Datuk Ramli should not be painted as an all-encompassing Saint who was charged in a case of The Good vs The Evil. No Sir, they charged him because he had dirt on his back which was fodder for his opponents and detractors. They charged him because Datuk Ramly exposed his weaknesses and the vultures just pounced on him.
But please do not misconstrue this as an endorsement of the underhand tactics employed by the MACC which stinks to kingdom come or. That Sir, would be the topic for another day.
In short, you reap what you sow! We should never forget that God works in mysterious ways.
The real victim in this entire episode is lawyer Rosli, who for all intents and purposes, was just discharging his duties to his client. That he was roughed-up, brutalised and handcuffed infront of his staff and colleagues and locked-up during the eve of Hari Raya and that the powers-that-be tacitly endorsed such blatant misconduct by the MACC officers ( MOHAN who was charged with corruption recently in Ipoh, is the arch-villain in this episode, I am told) is unbelievable, to say the least. One would have thought such conduct was only common in a tin-pot democracy like Zimbabwe.
So my prayers go for Sdr Rosli Sir, not for Datuk Ramli.

27th October 2009.
PM Najib announced a couple of days ago that the case of lawyer Lingam who was involved in the famous( or infamous rather ) Lingam Tapes is now deemed “closed”. One of the reasons proffered by Najib was that a key witness who was involved in the “fishing expedition” with the then Chief Justice to NZ, allegedly could not be traced.
YB Sivarasa released a press statement today stating that his party the PKR will be able to produce the said witness.
Dear YB Sivarasa,
I salute your tenacity but to what end, may I ask?
The BN government, by this idiotic decision, have made a mockery of the recommendations of the Royal Commission which was empanelled specifically into this matter... but then again, are you surprised?
Come on YB…. what else is new?
Dr M was so fond of saying "Melayu Mudah Lupa" but during the Inquiry, it suddenly dawned on him that he was also a Malay ( I know, I know…..some of you may claim that he is of Indian stock ( but we will keep that argument for another day) and he " Banyak Lupa" when he was questioned during the Inquiry!
The main character in this sordid play could not even identify his own image in the video... and mind you he was supposed to be a hotshot lawyer in Malaysia! Hey with friends and connections like that ( I read somewhere the Chief Justice went to this lawyers house to bade him farewell as the lawyer’s wife was leaving for treatment in the US )…..... even my 10-year old nephew can win cases in the Federal Court ( or is it the Supreme Court, or is it the Mahkamah Agong...or.. never mind!). And in one fell swoop, our beloved Najib has declared " Case Closed ". Shocked? Dismayed? Unbelievable? Come on… we are in Malaysia remember? So please cut the pretense.
Hey listen…… you guys ought to be a little reasonable.... with so much baggage hanging around his neck like a blooming albatross,... do you guys honestly think he ( Najib that is ) can act without fear or favour against these guys?. Come on….. give us a break……ooops sorry! Give Najib a break. He knows which side of his bread is buttered!!!
And why for heaven's sake are you even mentioning the name of the AG? He is in a perpetual state of self-induced stupor and may only come to when he is nudged by our beloved PM… and that is rarely!! So please let him wallow in the Arms of Morpheus!.
MACC? Come on... just take the case TBH... they claimed that when they were done with interrogating TBH, (a witness, mind you), in the wee hours of the morning, they allowed him to sleep in the pantry ( I am not too sure but going by their state of compassion in other cases, I am sure they must have also given him a blanket, a towel and even a toothbrush thrown in!).
And going by MACC’s reasoning, it would appear that once TBH retires for the nite, the entire MACC also closes shop... they too retire!
So can you blame them if they found TBH sprawled on the ground the next morning? He was probably sleep-walking! He probably thought that the window was the lift! Hell, he probably thought he could fly!
So can you guys blame the MACC for whatever went on in the minds of the late TBH?
Of course there is this one minor problem though: this busybody of a Thai pathologist who has done over 10,000 post-mortems over a 27-year period, says that the cause of death could be 80% homicide. That kind of revelation from a prominent pathologist ( and a foreign one at that!) poses a problem because the entire nation had always been led to believe that it was suicide!! Why? Because the MACC SAID SO! Is that all that difficult to understand?
Hey! By the way…. she is a foreigner….. so how can we trust her? She was probably brought in by the CIA ( Aiya just blame the US la... they also got no time to hear us also ). So there you have it. Everything is hunky dory in Bolehland!
By the way...here is the clincher: when the crime rate goes up, what do you do? For God's sake, stop thinking so hard, just save your grey matter…...YOU JUST EXTEND THE LEASE ( YES LEASE OR EVEN LEASH) OF THE IGP!!!!!
