Blame game between MCA and MIC

-

Now it is blame game between MCA and MIC over the Anti-Samy Vellu (GAS) movement. The MIC president Samy Vellu is blaming MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek for using The Star newspaper to attack him in order to cover up the current dissent in the MCA leadership.

It is believed that some MCA leaders had made known their displeasure over the appointment of Dr Chua's son Tee Yong as a deputy minister in the recent cabinet reshuffle. And in order to avoid the MCA's internal squabbles, Dr Chua instead pushes The Star to swift their attention to the GAS opposition on Samy's presidency in the MIC.

And today, Samy Vellu's Tamil Nesan fires the canon back to MCA, Dr Chua and The Star. The tug-of-war between the MCA leaders and their counterparts in the MIC is expected to prolong for these few weeks.

What is Dr Chua and MCA's next course of action then?

Well, let us not say this is a Chinese and Indian fight. It did not happen at all. It is all just a civil war in the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition, where each component parties are just trying to outdo each other. Umno will just watch what are their two dogs up to and if the bites turn to worst, they will just bring in the cane.

By the way, both MCA and MIC had already became irrelevant. Let us just sit down and watch the fight.

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.

Singapore Malay daily teaches Mahathir about hardwork

The former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad's assumption that Malays in Singapore had failed and their neighbouring Malays should take lesson from their plight has not impressed a Singaporean daily. The republic's Malay daily Berita Harian in an editorial said Malay-Muslims in the republic state were successful and it was a result of their real efforts and hard work in line with the values of meritocracy, not a result of being spoon-fed. “We do not believe in being spoon-fed or being too dependent on the government - in other words, we do not have a crutch mentality,' wrote editor Guntor Sadali. Guntor said Singapore Malays believed that a community with such a mentality would soon become a “two M” community, which stands for ‘manja’ (spoilt), and ‘malas’ (lazy). “We definitely do not want to be labelled as a pampered and lazy community,” he said, adding that the Malay community in the island raised their own funds to build Islamic schools, mosques and other community pro...
