The racist jargons of Dr Mahathir again!

-
Recently former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad gave a speech and told the audience these words: "This country belongs to the Malay race. Peninsular Malaysia was known as Tanah Melayu but this cannot be said because it will be considered racist. We must be sincere and accept that the country is Tanah Melayu".

So what is Dr Mahathir trying to prove now? What is his real intention of saying all these words? Are you telling us indirectly that all the non-Malays should leave this country if we did not like the various injustice, undemocratic and racist policies which are happening now in this nation?

Dr Mahathir, let us all tell you the real truth! Umno is actually not Malay-based political party at all. Umno has no grounds to claim that it is a Malay-based party solely representing the Malay community in this nation. Why do we say that Umno is not a Malay-based political party?

It is because the Umno membership not only consist of the Malays itself as members, but the said party also have Siamese, Portuguese, Achehnese, Jawanese, Kadazans, Murut, Bajaus, Bugis, Orang Asli, Chinese bumiputras, Indian Muslims and Christians as members and party leaders.

Therefore, Umno is not purely a Malay political party at all and as such, it cannot claim to represent the Malays in this country. Then, what stand does Umno have to say that this country belongs to only the Malays?

The earlier Malay-based political parties were the Kesatuan Melayu Muda (KMM), Parti Kebangsaan Melayu Malaya (PKMM) and Parti Melayu Semangat 46 (S46).

Let us stress that even PAS is not a Malay-based political party. It is a political party that emphasizes on the teaching of Islam and its members consist of any race or ethnicity who profess Islam as their religion.

Now, coming back to the "country" issue. Not only Malays are in Malaysia. Malays are also inhabitants in the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Eastern China, Taiwan, Singapore and even in South Africa. So, are these countries also belongs to the Malays as well?

Come on Dr Mahathir! Since your retirement, your thinking and analytical skills has been deteriorating so bad to the extent that your are moving backwards and behaving like an uncivilized old man.

Where is your position now? Are you a Malaysian first or Malay first? Or are you nothing else but only a bad old troublemaker? Just recap on what you have been talking to see if you are a Malaysian or just a Malay.

Dr Mahathir, you stabilize this country when you were the prime minister and after you stepped aside, you wanted to destabilize it.

Well, we are all Malaysians At Our Very Best and it does not mean that we will be come less Malay, less Chinese, less Indian and so on! So, what about you?

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...
