Resign now instead of waiting for end of tenure

-
The much tainted Wanita Umno chief and women, family and community development minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil whose family members are behind the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) scandal involving the swindling of RM250 million of government fund confirmed that she will resign from her cabinet post on 8 April 2012 next month once her senatorial membership in the Dewan Negara expires but refused to relinquish her party position.

In fact, if she is truly honest in ensuring the integrity of the government that she is serving, Shahrizat should have immediately resign from all her government and party positions once the NFC scandal erupted to the public earlier. Why go for a few weeks leave and then keep hanging around here and there? Even the Cheras Umno division chief Syed Ali Syed Abas had on several occasion called for her immediate resignation and doubt her announcement today by calling her a "Makcik Bollywood".

And just look at her hypocritical attitude in public recently. She is now wearing a "tudung" in order to be more religious than before. What for? Only after the money swindling scandal was exposed to the public then the Wanita Umno chief has decided to be nearer to Allah s.w.t. There is no point to be more religious now as it is too late for her to carry out her redemption.

What we would suggest is Shahrizat should just pack her bags and leave office now and wait for the court order to have her and her family members stand trial for all the sins they had committed all these years. Resign 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.

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...
