Stop manipulating the electoral list, EC told

-

We wish to urge the Elections Commission (EC) to stop manipulating the electoral list for the upcoming Hulu Selangor parliamentary by-election.

EC knew that why are they being often condemned all these years. Because the EC did not act professionally. Names of voters in the electoral lists all over the nation were often manipulated in order to favour the ruling Umno-led BN federal government, in order for them to maintain their two-thirds majority and to disqualify opposition candidates as well.

EC is not accountable to the parliament, because EC has been structured under the jurisdiction of the prime minister's department. So do we see EC as a neutral organization that conducts free and fair elections?

When an Umno minister complained that the Malaysian for Free and Fair Election (Mafrel), an independent elections watch group was a tool of Pakatan Rakyat, EC immediately terminated Mafrel's role from its list of NGO-based election watch groups.

If Mafrel is a Pakatan's tool, so EC is an Umno's tool as well. EC did whatever Umno instructs, and there you are, Mafrel was terminated because of an Umno minister's instruction.

We wish to tell EC, if you are really free, fair and professional, no one will complain and condemn you. We do not complain and condemn for nothing and no reasons. You had did it the wrong way and that is why we are complaining and condemning you now.

EC should ask ROS to register Pakatan quickly

The Election Commission (EC) had recently advised the current opposition pact, Pakatan Rakyat comprising PAS, PKR and DAP, to register their coalition so that they could use their logo in the coming general election. EC deputy chairman Datuk Wan Ahmad Wan Omar said the coalition should be registered because the opposition parties were always seen violating regulations of the election campaign, especially on the use of their logo. Datuk Wan Ahmad seems to be overly ignorant and too forgetful on this issue. The EC deputy chairman should ask the Registrar of Societies (ROS) to quickly register the Pakatan instead of calling on Pakatan to register itself. Pakatan Rakyat had earlier send in their formal application to register itself as a coalition of political parties since November 2009 and ROS has yet to register the said entity till today after delaying and creating so many hassles for more than a year. It is not Pakatan who is delaying on its application but it was the ROS who is just...

USM fiasco a shame

-
I read and heard with irritation and felt disgusted with the fiasco committed by the apex status university called Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) which caused untold anguish to the affected students and their parents. If this happened in Japan, the Vice-Chancellor would have done the honourable thing - take full responsibilty and leave, but here in Malaysia, as expected, the blame is shifted here and there, trying to make someone a scapegoat. By the way, would there be any racist or sabotage elements involved? Those who are responsible for this fiasco should be sacked or expelled immediately.

Federal Constitution that Safeguards the Legitimate Rights and Interest of All Malaysians

The provisions of the Federal Constitution are very clear. It confirmed the position of the Malay Rulers, Islam as an official religion of the federation and special position of the Malays and the natives in Sabah and Sarawak whilst recalling that those provisions balance those special positions with safeguards to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the other communities in Malaysia which also includes their right to profess and practice their religions freely without being fear of any threats or being harmed by anybody. The legitimate interests of the non-Malays and non-Muslims would include, amongst others: a) Article 153 (9) says that business or trade cannot be solely reserved only for the Malays, b) Article 3 (1) says that the official religion of the federation is Islam BUT other religions are also allowed to be practiced in peace and harmony in any part of the federation. This means, the other communities too have their fundamental legitimate rights and interest here ...
