Between Masjid and temples

Dana masjid: Khairy tolak penjelasan Nga

KUALA LUMPUR, Dis 11 — Ketua Pemuda Umno pusat, Khairy Jamaluddin menolak penjelasan Ahli Parlimen Taiping Nga Kor Ming berhubung kenyataannya sebelum ini yang membuat perbandingan peruntukan kerajaan untuk membina masjid dengan rumah ibadat lain seluruh negara.

Sehubungan itu jelas Khairy, penjelasan Nga semalam tidak boleh diterima memandangkan wakil rakyat berkenaan tidak menafikan apa yang disebut dalam kenyataan awal sebelum ini.
“Pokoknya di sini, apabila dibuat perbandingan antara peruntukan pembinaan masjid dengan rumah ibadat lain, ia sudah menjadi isu sensitiviti dan jelas membuktikan DAP berkali-kali tidak menunjukkan satu perasaan hormat kepada sensitiviti agama di Malaysia,” kata beliau dalam kenyataan yang disiarkan laman web Pemuda Umno hari ini.

Khairy berkata pergerakan itu tidak mempunyai halangan terhadap mana-mana pihak yang mahu memperjuangkan peruntukan untuk rumah ibadat agama lain kerana ia juga adalah tanggungajwab kerajaan.

“Ini bukan kali pertama tetapi berulang kali dibuat oleh DAP.
“Kita merasakan majoriti umat Islam terutamanya amat tersinggung dengan perbandingan yang dibuat oleh Nga Kor Ming itu.

“Malah beliau tidak menghormati Perlembagaan persekutuan serta mengetepikan sensitiviti kaum dan agama serta pemimpin yang buta sejarah serta mungkin tidak ada apa-apa perasaan penghormatan kepada orang lain,” tambah Khairy.

PAS hari ini menyokong kenyataan Ahli Parlimen Taiping Nga Kor Ming sambil menyifatkan ia membuktikan kegagalan kerajaan pusat dalam pengagihan dana dan bantuan secara berkesan kepada pelbagai agama di negara ini.

Semalam, Pemuda PAS memberitahu pihaknya mahu mengadakan pertemuan dengan Nga berhubung isu berkenaan.

Semalam Nga menegaskan kenyataannya berhubung isu peruntukan kerajaan dalam membina rumah ibadat Islam dan bukan Islam telah diputar belit dan dijadikan bahan menghasut sentimen perkauman oleh sesetengah media.

Jelas Nga, dalam kenyataan kelmarin beliau hanya merujuk kepada jawapan Menteri di Jabatan Prdana Menteri Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop bahawa kerajaan memperuntukkan RM748.26 juta membina dan menyelenggara 611 buah masjid tetapi satu jumlah kecil iaitu RM9 juta diagihkan untuk tujuan agama bukan Islam, 1.2 peratus sahaja.

Justeru beliau memohon supaya agihan lebih adil disalurkan kepada rakyat beragama bukan Islam kerana prinsip pertama Rukun Negara adalah Kepercayaan Kepada Tuhan.
Nga yang membaca kenyataannya pada sidang akhbar di lobi Parlimen turut menegaskan bahawa agama Islam adalah agama suci yang mengajar semua pihak berlaku adil.

“Saya berasa kesal bahawa laporan Utusan Malaysia dengan tajuk Kor Ming persoalkan kerajaan bina masjid adalah salah dan berunsur hasutan. Tajuk tersebut adalah dipapar oleh editor akhbar berkenaan tanpa pengetahuan saya,” katanya.

kenyataan MP taiping harus dilihat dalam konteks keadilan yang dituntut oleh agama rasmi negara kita Islam. Peruntukan ini adalah perbuatan manusia bukan agama ; peruntukan manusia boleh di ubah dan bukan prinsip agama - ia itu berlaku adil kepada semua insan . Maka semua Wakil Rakyat di Parlimen harus meniliti hujah MP Taiping dengan rasional .

BN and PR - a good 2 system party

2009-12-20T23:29:00.000-08:00

Recently both BN and PR showed their wishlist to the public . PR during their 1st National Convention on 19th December and BN on its NKRP exhibition - both being held in Klang Valley now govern by PR.

Its for the people to judge and pick the right government by mid 2011 if what Penang CM's prediction turns correct.

I am really touched by Lim's speech during PR's convention.

While , thats the case in PR - PM Najib seems to be doing things all alone or being assisted by his KPI ministers only ... maybe its time for - cabinet reshuffle.

UM-HEAD OF INDIAN STUDIES ISSUE

2009-07-06T16:06:00.000-07:00

what the sole Indian minister has to say ;-
UM promised to resolve Indian Studies Dept issue
Dr S Subramaniam Jul 6, 09 7:52pm
This is in response to news reports in the local Tamil dailies today which mentioned that the head of the Indian Studies Department in University Malaya, Dr S Kumaran has been replaced by a non-Indian from the same university.I agree that the appointment of a non-Indian to the post has created uneasiness and unhappiness among the Indian community.I have spoken to the vice-chancellor of University Malaya Ghauth Jasmon today and requested that a suitable Indian lecturer be appointed to the post.Ghauth has agreed to resolve the issue as soon as possible.Ghauth told me that Dr Kumaran's replacement was an administrative issue but he promised to look into my request seriously.I am happy with the assurance given by Ghauth that the matter would be resolved quickly.I attribute the problem to the lack of cooperation among the teaching faculty of the department.Dr S Subramaniam is the Human Resources Minister and the MIC secretary-general.

Teaching Hinduism in schools

2009-06-29T18:20:00.000-07:00

Dear friends,

the PROBLEM /CHALLENGE ;

This morning I was reading a weekly Malay women magazine called Majalah Wanita ... there is one thought provoking article - true story. ... [nothing new]

a new convert relate his reason for converting to a new religion ;

" saya dibesarkan dipersekitaran orang Melayu, bersekolah si sekolah rendah dam menengah kebangsaan ..membuat saya memiliki lebih ramai teman Melayu dari bangsa saya sendiri..dari situ sedikit demi sedikit saya dapat mengetahui mengenai agama Islam....sejak tingkatan 4 saya bercita2 untuk menjadi peguam , oleh itu saya bertemu seorang cikgu yang menasihatkan saya mengambil mata pelajaran sejarah dan tasawuf Islam -undang2 islam. ......"
AND ...
he further claims that his whole family were planning to convert into Christianity due to ouverty during his deep involvement in Islam ..." Ibu dan bapanya merupakan penganut Hindu yang taat...sehinggalah dia mengetahui bahawa ibu bapanya bertukar agama kerana masalah kewangan dan kemorosotan dalam perniagaan"
page 112 , Majalah Wanita June 2009

the SOLUTION

Malaysia Hindudharma Mamandram initiated a module for primary 1-6 on teaching hinduism in primary schools. The plan was completed years ago and Mandram was tabling the same to the Ministry of Education. Recently Mandram under the leadership of Dr.NS Rajendran submitted the proposal to the then Education Minister YB Hishammudin.

Mandram on his on effort has conducted module training and experiment the sylabus before submitting for goverment's approval.

As a responsible Hindu , we must support the noble and sincere work of Mandram and give our sincere commitment to make this project a success. WE should, via our parliment representives, NGO leaders,temples and schools voice our support for this project to materialise

We hope the people-first government will view the teaching of religious lessons for all pupil as their priority too.

When a child is taught the basic and fundamental values of Hindu Dharma we can wipe out case or cases like in the above article.

weekly off day for malaysian maid...

2009-06-17T21:44:00.000-07:00

The Human resources minister has suggested to enforce a weekly once off-day for domestic maid working in Malaysia. Today's paper carries views from the employers - majority disagreed with their own - perhaps valid reasons...

First and foremost , dealing with maids are not easy... especially the worker-employer gender is the same - female... I am not saying all but majority are difficult to manage...

As employer , please treat maid with some respect. Like :-

a. assigned specific jobs for them ; like you employ a clerk in your office you have job discription right? ..i have seen maid - doing house work ,washing cars,lorries and van .. attending the the employer's kids and also the husband's need??

b. do not ask your maid to work in your relative or friend's house whenever you visit them...

c. talk to them and understand their need and requirement - respect their privacy

d. do not over pamper your maid - draw a line BUT no slavery treatment

e. A one day off - can be even in your house - let her relax....

think about it!!

MINISTER NAZRI BETTER KNOW THE MEANING OF MERIT

2009-06-17T02:39:00.000-07:00

Last night parliment debate and today's news report says that Minister in charge of parliment affairs YB Nazri has declared that there wasnt any special selection for government scholarship for the 20% of the app 2000 awards allocated based on merit.

He further claimed that non-Bumi gain more than the Bumi - not really relevant - if its merit ;means merit - we [people] will take it without any discriminative thinking because its MERIT.

20% from the total is only 40 awards ; leaving 1600 on what merit?? , God knows!

One wonder - if the selection is on merit there is no issue of criteria ; every Malaysian is clear about it , the question is how the balance 1600 is given out - where is the transperancy?
YOU cannot give out award to crony and nominee of political leaders ...

I told many of my friends that TUN M is 'merajuk' with LKY 's visit to Malaysia. The Mentor Minister is on a week long stay in our country and he has met BN,and PR leaders ..

I guess he has other agenda besides his nostalgic tour to some places in our country. LKY is here to talk business too. Tun M and Tun AB cannot blame the najib government for not allowing them to do a similar visit to foreign nations on behalf of the country... LKY upon his retirement has accepted the more junior post as a cabinet minister and has been working as a cabinet member till today ... so there is a different between our ex-PM and Singapore's ex PM ... so people too do not have to be concerned about the role of our ex Pms ... one must still work hard .....

Mega scandal - ..After two days of inquiry, parliament's Public AccountsCommittee (PAC) will meet the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC)next week to discuss the controversial Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) project.

crimes are committed by individual entrusted by people. The government should stop allocating post and projects to political parties - cronies ; Port Klang Free Zone looks like being run by MCA for BN? this perception need to be addressed and the culprit be punished - here or in HELL ...lets pray to God.

1Malaysia - Opportunity to change

2009-04-25T22:20:00.000-07:00

Many were asking me if the 1Malaysia slogan by the new PM is for real? My simple answer is -you must believe in it ; give a try and support the noble thinking of the PM.

There is one opinion saying PM is a lone ranger in this campaign ; I told him - if the people are with him then no MPs or ministers will have the guts to 'boycott' him

So , rakyat should give PM najib a chance to make his dream for 1Malaysia materialise - in less than 30 days he has come out with some major moves that favors people - it shows he knows the pulse and feeling of the rakyat....

For a country of more than 50 years as a free nation , it gives us a status of a maturity in thinking and conducting ourselves.

For the Indian community , what has happen - was a bitter lessons for all- gone are the days politicians survive just by lip service - The community must be awaken to work with fellow Malays and Chinese into facing global competition.....and of course the community is ever ready to bid their 'leader' Samy Vellu a farewell soon. very soon

Declining standard of English in Malaysia

2009-03-08T17:49:00.000-07:00

You blame the system. English was treated as a non-compulsary subject ;equalent to an art or a moral subject. You can move further even if you failed in your exams.

The method used to teach English was to get people thru the exam rather than having good command of the language - both written and spoken.

As a result many school leavers speak poor English.

Look at our fellow ASEAN members - take Indonesia for that matter ; their group of educated people speak good English- just watch their government officials ; MPs and ministers speaks- well in English while maintain their ability to speak in Bahasa Indonesia.

AS such it was the policy before that has short term political milage that destroyed our standard of English

The victim - children from middle class and poor families .

malaysia - hot snippets oops sound bites

2009-03-06T02:24:00.000-08:00

Its getting too hot here in Malaysia with so many issues around us. lets see how it goes :-

economic - The government announced 2nd stimulus pac for RM10bil , earlier the 1st eco pac ws rm7 bil - all in 17 bil is what been focused by many economists... But recently the 2nd Finance Minister said only 9% of the 1st stimulus pac was spent ? ... implementation problem ?

in 2 days - 8th March is a year anniversary for national General Election - last GE saw a drastic changes in our political landscape... we have a crisis in Perak and a new PM soon in federal ... with a backdrop of too many scandals by BN and PR people.... a very dirty game too.

Former Minister Samy is again in lime light - for all the bad reasons - MIED scandals .
Anwar's sodomy case has been transfered to Federal Court for hearing and he is appealing ...
MCA No2 man has called for government to take over PLUS
Sultans expressed disappointment with the attitude of some politicians
There will be three By election in April

samy vs chitra

2009-02-28T03:05:00.000-08:00

The MIED andMIC has a BIG problem here.
The party has to answer to new alligations by now suspended CEO of MIED... read more from staronline .

KUALA LUMPUR: A woman MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu promoted to high office is now threatening him with law suits and police reports over his financial and political dealings.
P. Chitrakala Vasu, 38, told a press conference on Saturday that she was innocent of the accusations of mismanaging MIED, the party’s education arm that manages the AIMST University in Kedah and other colleges, and of construction cost over-runs.
“I am clean… it is Samy Vellu who has to answer these accusations. He is the MIED chairman and he has to answer,” she said.
Chitrakala is on leave from her job as CEO of MIED, which she has headed for 15 years.
“The MIED has grown and expanded under my management and is now worth RM1bil. It belongs to the MIC and the Indian community,” she said refuting claims that the MIED was an independent entity.
Samy Vellu alleged recently that files and a sum of RM5mil was missing from the MIED. He also alleged impropriety in the awarding of contracts for AIMST University.
MIED director and MIC vice-president Datuk S. Sothinathan lodged two police reports earlier this month alleging MIED files were missing along with RM5mil.
Police recorded statements from various MIED officials, including Samy Vellu, who was interviewed for nearly five hours last week.
Chitrakala said her relations with Samy Vellu turned sour after the MIC suffered massively during the March 8, 2008 general election which saw Samy Vellu himself losing his Sungei Siput seat.
She said she incurred his wrath when she resisted Samy Vellu’s moves to change MIED members and directors, move the MIED out of the MIC building and disconnect MIED from the MIC.
She said she was “very scared” of Samy Vellu even as she was willing to criticise her former boss publicly.
She was also going public because she feared she would be blamed for all sorts financial and other improprieties connected with the MIED.
“I don’t want to be the fall guy,” she said.
Chitrakala lodged two police reports in Subang on Saturday morning

let us unite in diversiy

2009-02-27T09:02:00.000-08:00

that is the call from PM in waiting . We also call upon him to make drastic changes that he promises . Drastic changes includes clean and efficient government and act against crime without fear and favor . Releasing all ISA detainees on his 10th day as PM will be an approprite action.

Form all party committee to address economic crisis - get the nation focused on nation building and unity .

Make decisions that benefit all races and be a PM for all - in true spirit

May God Bless Malaysia

THE PM designate

2009-02-23T19:52:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, on Maha Sivarathi day [an auspicious Hindu festival] the PM in waiting YAB Datuk Seri Najib Razak has made some announcement – I should say specific announcement for the well being of Indian community.

The community known for its undivided SUPPORT AND LOYALTY to the government will once again expect the promises made turn into reality.

Datuk Seri Najib has specifically mentioned about allocation of extra RM 20 million for living skills and ways in increasing numbers in civil sector.

The Umno President-elect has also promised that government will look into complaints that the police were targeting Indian Malaysians ..

This is the right time for our PM to come with new approach to ensure ‘rakyat’ benefit directly from all his promises that will transform thru many ‘packages’. The new PM has to identify mechanism that will act as an independent body to monitor and report on all projects designated for the community.

Let us hope and pray that YAB Datuk Seri Najib will bring peace, progress and unity by introducing drastic changes in policies and practices that had been hindrance to nation building.

God Bless Malaysia

Thats Clear Najib

Yesterday PM in waiting , DS Najib has confirmed the Air Asia - Labu Deal is OFF ; siting Sime Darby 's stand is clear about it and Air Asia has briefed the government.

The government has confirmed it has vetoed an ambitious plan by budget carrier AirAsia to build a RM1.6 billion airport in Labu, Negri Sembilan.

can someone please inform the transport minister about the decision taken by his government ?
YB Ong seems to be lost and blur 2 about the whole chapter .

health check - malaysia

2009-02-19T17:18:00.000-08:00

The main stream media has started to throw tips on managing funds. People treated on ways to control spending and be more prudent.

The media also need to check on traders , merchants and wholesellers attitude and contirbution during the time of weak economy facing the country and nation.

At last FM DS najib agreed that we are below 3% on GDP target for this fin year.

With the mini budget to be anounced soon - we call upon all media to focus on addressing economic and financial issues more than political .

Both BN and PR need to join force in ensuring proper distribution of funds given out in the stimulus package II

Please stay UNITED

colorful malaysia - full of drama

2009-02-19T02:01:00.000-08:00

You can only see this in malaysia : all over the world you can only see this in our beloved country

1. A chinese legislator - state minister in Selangor offered her resignation over a semi nude photos taken in private by her 'ex-friend. The culprit released the photo is still at large . Now the politician is on leave and will know her status on 25th Feb .

2. An indian state speaker in Perak suspended the state's CM and a few bunch of state ministers from attending state assembly for a period of more that a year>>

3. A pakistani Prof has called for " snap election; in the state concerned or to be ruled by emergency ordinance upon the approval from the King.

4. Veteran politician Samy Vellu announced his party's presidential election will be held on 12th April and he is or maybe will defend the post .

5. A major TV station TV3 showed more interest in the issue of semi nude pics of a politician than the economic affairs raised by the PM in waiting - Najib

bread and butter

2009-02-12T18:51:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I received a call from a friend asking to deposit RM300 by 7 pm into his account. He has to pay back to a money lender . Very rare. He has a steady job and never had this difficulty before. On my may to the bank in Jalan Sg Besi KL , one Chinese man stopped by and asked for RM5 ; he was pushing his bike and he has no money for fuel - petrol. I gave him RM5 and saw him going to the petrol station to get the tank filled.

It make me wonder :
Here , we are going thru a very tight and difficult time but our policy makers are busy politicing.

PERAK - new lessons for people

2009-02-06T21:26:00.000-08:00

the current political struggle between BN and PR has dragged the people and the palace into the street.

The chief victim - The Sultan of Perak ; the other victim - people of Perak

The winner - All print media - increased their circulation
The winner too - Toyota dealer

The Man Of The Month - MB of pakatan
The Lousy Man Of The Month -Zahid Hamidi for his racist remark

The Poor Thinker - PM abdullah badawi - for asking PR to accept defeat like how BN accepted defeat in March GE - not knowing the difference

Peguam Negara, Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail hari ini mengklasifikasikan kes kematian Kugan Ananthan dalam tahanan polis, sebagai kes bunuh.LAGI

2009-01-23T18:39:00.000-08:00

The above statement was captured from Malaysiakini webnews today.

May God bless his soul. There are two major issues here that we need to take address in order to avoid repeat incident.

1. The state of police - people demand for disciplined and dedicated force. There are some out there to tarnish the forces name. PDRM should bring the culprits to book. Increase force intake - recruit more Indian youth into police force .

2. The indian community has a role to play in erradicating crime . Kugan's death shows Unity - I see politicians of all parties were there to meet the families and public. Prompt action by deputy ministers need applaud. By being united we can do wonders - good service to mankind. There is a need to form a team - not to study or research - enough of it!!! to work closely with the community. A team comprises of all political parties. The community must believe that proper education and teaching of good values will erradicate negative values - BUT our poor parents need the support of many NGOs - we need to educate the people -

ponggal in malaysia

2009-01-16T03:23:00.000-08:00

Many Malaysian indians celebrated Pongal on 14th Jan in a different style compare to people in India particularly in Tamil Nadu. Pongal is our version of Thanksgiving to Almighty and nature.

Its very symbolic and meaningful to us and is a must for all of us to celebrate as a national festival.

People are more alert and info savy than before. The Y generation is action and result oriented. Global Happenings such as the election of US president is watched closely by people and we appreciate human rights and values.

The Malaysian Indian mindset is changing fast but it is not getting the support of main stream media in this country.

The Malaysian Indian need a Free To Air Television ; like TV3 for Malays and 8TV for Chinese if we are to be seen as equal partner in every field.

people of gaza - pray that arm dealers go to HELL

2009-01-09T03:08:00.000-08:00

Watching news on al-jazerra and other international channels over mid nights makes you feel that world is not a safe place to leave. The Israel and Hamas battle has resulted in many innocent childrens and women as victims.

The only power on earth that can influence Israel is US and the all arab nations put together to preassure the war to end.

One wonder if the super power is behind all the conflicts that happens in Sri Lanka , Middle East , South Asia etc .. their weapon industries that manufacture arms and military equipments for sea , air and ground military will benefit from the ongoing wars and conflicts.

If there is no war , conflict and clashes - the demand for arms does not arise. Many developing or even poor nations are spending billions on defence.Like its neighbours in ASEAN Malaysia too spends a lot on defence .

Let us pray that arm dealers will go to HELL

50 years of divide and rule - YB Mike - a victim

2009-01-01T21:14:00.000-08:00

One can understand the MP for Kapar's outburst. His nine month old state government is not responding well to his grieviences. Move to quit party state post is a good one at the moment.

YB , looks like you are a victim of ' money is everything' policy practiced by the previous BN government. Every problem cannot be solved by throwing money. This is a bad practice that need to be CHANGED.

Its the duty of state ministers and chief minister to care and manage its subject - rakyat. If they failed its your duty to talk at national level before any outburst in public. As an indian , we want to see a malaysian indian MP act beyond all other material gain ; like a post in GLC etc . The practice of having political appointee to GLC is a bad , bias practice of previous government , whereby majority or all top level posts being offered to people lnked to the party , rakyat is aware of the practice and this is one factor that they were voted out in March. So , YB , be cool and keep your greviences high but discuss with your bosses and clear the mess. We elected you to represent us in parliment effectively. So in 2009 , we expect you to perform much better than 2008. Best wishes YB

welcome 2009

2009-01-01T21:11:00.000-08:00

Let us welcome 2009 with new hope for change. May unity,understanding and tolerance become our main agenda in the midst of economy crisis expected to shake our faith and will power.

Stay united and plan every move on financial moves. Lets pray for all -

HINDRAF is not an organisation

2008-12-29T23:25:00.000-08:00

HINDRAF is not a political , social or an NGo . it was formed as an ad-hoc to address the memorandum issue. It was formed by many NGOs because they need a nuetral name and for security or no guts reason many national NGOs refused to commit 100% on championing issues facing the Indian community. I am saying it because I was part of an active NGO.

So in today's malaysiakini , reporter Kabilan mentioned that , there is a plot to oust Samy vellu and it seems Hindraf and YB MP for Kapar is behind it. Believe me it will never materialse.

I still believe MIC can deliver if there is a real Branding and restructuring done to the party. Move to appoint a new Treasurer General is a good one if the aim was to regain trust.

The most effective will be for the president to come out and annouce his retirement and let the key national leaders offer their service as presidential candidates. samy vellu shoud move out in March 2009.

MIC need brand new national leaders. The party's rebranding and restructuring is taking too long and people are not impressed with the ongoing politicing in the party . its almost a year after the terrible general election defeat unlike the other parties in BN like Gerakan,Umno and MCA are already into many phases of rebranding and appointing new party leaders.

THANKS IJN

2008-12-24T01:32:00.000-08:00

I must salute and say thank you to 32 ijn hearts. You have shown fellow malaysians that medical practice is a service and not business. I had one experience when a a specialist whom I know based in PMC Pantai KL Dato Dr Sreenivasan told me that his is a service and not business when I asked him " Hello Dato How are you ? How is business?

Profession such as teacher , lawyer and doctor is a divine service. people in this cirle are highly respected and recognised by society. Hindus especially encourage their children to be one in future. Its has nothing to do with status but purely service or close to God.

So , in a multi religious country like Malaysia , many doctors , lawyers and teachers must stand as good role model because every religion teaches to be good servant of God.

Let us wish the IJN and staffs good health and prosperous in life

Merry X mas and happy holiday.

in nationality we are malaysian

2008-10-24T03:05:00.000-07:00

i am shocked and cant believe it when i read tony puah's blog regarding home minister syed albar's views that a Chinese or Indian in his nationality column states Malaysian Chinese or Malaysian Indian...whereas Malay just write MALAYSIAN. This is not true Mr.Minister.... what are your trying to say....Let me put it in bahasa Malaysia ' BAGI STATUS WARGANEGARA KETURUNAN INDIA DAN CINA TIDAK SAMA SEKALI MENYATAKAN STATUS NYA SEPERTI 'MALAYSIAN CHINESE ATAU MALAYSIAN INDIAN. WARGANEGARA STATUS NYA 'MALAYSIAN' SAHAJA SEPERTI ORANG MELAYU. STATUS BAGI KAUM IA NYA DAN LAZIMNYA DITULIS SEBAGAI MALAYSIAN CHINESE ATAU MALAYSIAN INDIAN. ADA FAHAM. we are totally loyal to this country and no one has the rights to question our loyalty... I think someone here is trying to gain cheap political gain pending a party election campaign.... what a silly , stupid and selfish branding ....

POLITICAL BLOCKBUSTER

2008-10-08T03:13:00.000-07:00

Malaysiakini's breaking news of Abdullah resigning in March 2009 is no surprise to most of us.

Malaysia is so pact with political news. mega important involving Prime Minister and other senior politicians. Name it -all aspiring politicians are into party elections be it in UMNO , MCA or Gerakan. 2008 will witness new leaders born again in many major parties, Not forgeting the darling of the rakyat datuk seri anwar ibrahim - still driving the hope of forming a new government. Hope and Change are two secret mantras.

The nation however do not get drunk with politicians - we must push for better economic environment - decrease in fuel price further and ensure Minister Shahrir does his work effectively. most crucial - stay UNITED and do not let SYAITAN to poison our mind.

festival for the Goddess

2008-10-06T10:40:00.000-07:00

NAVARATRI or Festival for Nine Nights is being celebrated by Hindus worldwide. In Malaysia ,Hindus celebrate in a grand manner but mainly in temples . Devotees seek blessings from Goddess Durga , Lakshmi and Saraswathi. Resemblance Power,Wealth and Knowledge.

The symbol of this festival is one must strive to attain the 3 qualities mentioned above and will find success in life. The search must be carried out with total devotion minus all greed and selfish.

All levels of people - right from children to elderly one is involved in the pooja [prayers] ... one concerned - the number of people/devotees attending Navaratri Pooja has declined.

I always tell missionary workers - time to come we will have place of worship minus devotees or a very small negligible number of devotees.

a serious awareness is required before its too late.... stop blaming ... everyone of us has a role to play .

make peace- form a united force

2008-10-06T10:18:00.000-07:00

PM Abdullah is expected to announce his early exit soon. Yet he will have 6 months to work on many issues. PM Abdullah can still make his exit in style or something that Malaysians will remember forever. The Pakatan's March GE victory, the defeat of many BN big-guns but controversial figures and his refusal to appoint Rafidah into his cabinet shows he TRIED his best to fight mismanagement and corupt but HE IS ALONE IN THE RACE.... not even ONE SINGLE CABINET MINISTER IS WITH HIM TO FIGHT CORRUPTION...perhaps zaid , is an exception.
The one way of getting things done at all levels of people is for PM to call for an ALL PARTY meeting - involving BN and Pakatan parties to discuss on major national issues including the ISA and ways to fight inflation. secondly PM Abdullah should create a healthy working relationship between state-federal government of different parties. He will be remembered by rakyat for opening up the new 2 party approach in a professional manner. A good administer , Abdullah will be admired for his courage to face states run by opposition parties- establish the rapport of good working relationship. By doing so PM is sending a clear message to his fellow party men - that there is no short-cut for success and to unseat a opponent one need to work hard -earn it. unfortunately the most powerful portfolio is no longer under his control - thr MOF ?

make khazanah the perfect CR

2008-10-06T09:56:00.000-07:00

Khazanah has major stakes in many major corporates . the time has come for Khazanah to ensure people's welfare is given prime importance by private sectors like plantation,banking,media, medical and etc open up their minds into helping the middle and lower class population. Khazanah has made many capitalists in this country grown mega rich. ENOUGH of capitalism. People in general must benefit. Toll fee must come down,petrol price must show its rational for any increase in future , more crucial the education and health sectors must show mercy to the poor. Education and Good health care must reach every Malaysian and do not get excited by turning the 2 sectors into tourist revenue. a good government is one that provides good education , health and shelter. Khazanah has a prominent role to play. Prime Minister who is also the Chairman of Khazanah must make sure that PEOPLE benefit from Khazanah. The word Khazanah originally from Sanskrit means Gajanaa...

when you unite - people win

2008-10-05T08:50:00.000-07:00

even after the November Hindraf rally incident and the tragic March 8 GE. People ,particularly the indian based NGOs and political parties are not united. I still see Malaysia Hindu Sangam and Hindu Dharma Mandram still as rivals. MIC has yet to recover from the political Tsunami. Hindraf and splinter group Makal Sakthi is after each other. We are heading no where. Changes need sacrifices. The old and ineffective MUST GO .... no cosmatic changes ,people no longer believe in cosmatic branding. NGO must go down and work - meeting people and talking to them on issues. a LOT of serious field work is needed.... the call of the day is to UNITE. wake up and UNITE ...change before FORCED to change ...

another test for two party system

2008-09-19T18:57:00.000-07:00

Malaysia is undergoing another test for 2 party system. asking for fair play will be too much. Both BN & Pakatan should display their strenght and ability to adminster governments under their control. Fair Play and mutual respect is the grounf rules.

Can both aspiring PMs show the right path to the nation ... next few days crucial

MPs leave BN NOW

2008-09-12T18:36:00.000-07:00

WHO IS THE PM NOW? ABDULLAH? I DONT THINK SO , JUST 2 DAYS AGO THE SAME ABDULLAH SAID THAT RAKYAT IS FED UP WITH POLITICING AND WANT TO SE STABILITY AND PROGRESS BUT LAST NIGHT HIS GOVERNMENT USED THE CAVEMEN RULES - ISA TO ARREST WITHOUT TRAIL A STATE MINISTER - YB TERESA KOK...

RAKYAT MUST STAY CALM... MPs in BN MUST ACT NOW.... leave BN NOW

HOME FOR WARRIOR

2008-09-12T03:55:00.000-07:00

as reported in Malaysiakini news - Saudara Raja petra has gone to kamunting to join Hindraf and other brothers there. It is a sad day indeed for democracy , while Malaysians in general were preparing to celebrate 619 , this news affected our feeling a little bit down BUT NOT OUT.

the nation is waiting for saudara Anwar to take the lead and form the new government in a near future. There is no hurry but at the same time not to delay the formation of new government. DAP and PAS - must listen to MAKKAL SAKTHI - people's power and support Keadian in forming a new and JUST government ... do not get me wrong JUST has no relation with the NGO ...you know .. 3 days ago I was at the Chinese Assembly hall listening to Sdr Hisamudin Rais , YB Sivarasah and others in a forum ... YB Siva was in particular confident about the CHANGE , sdr Hisam was true to his spirit.. asking PAKATAN not to copy BN ..there must be structural changes... well , people has a choice now in a 2 party system....

MPs STAY HOME - BE A TRUE MALAYSIAN

2008-09-05T01:14:00.000-07:00

as recent reporting in all webnews and blogs the BN MPs are on for a trip - to Australia organised by their club , and will be out of the country from 9-16 september? PM abdullah in a month ago ordered overseas trip to be called off due to economic reasons ; but now he has given his blessings for his MPs to go and hide ...ha ha ha . what a shame ? the whole BN government and his top leaders are so scared of 916 ... going to be toppled? whose money is it ? people's money right ? a final leakage before giving up ya!

thank you DS Wan Azizah

2008-08-22T18:53:00.001-07:00

Malaysians must thank DS wan Azizah for the little drop of fuel price - less 15 cent from 2.70 now to 2.55.... its nothing but BN's cheap publicity but credit goes to PR... and I Pray for Tok Guru's speed recovery ... and his message to Rakyat
thanks to Malaysiakini & Pemudabesut ....

Tuan/Puan,

Alhamdulillah. Setelah sempat mengikuti sendiri proses penamaan calon di Permatang Pauh pada 16 Ogos 2008, sedarlah saya yang ia adalah sebuah pilihan raya kecil yang amat sengit. UMNO/BN melihat pertarungan ini perlu memberi kemenangan mandatori kerana kekalahan boleh membawa kepada Pakatan Rakyat maju ke hadapan untuk mara ke Putrajaya. Mereka cukup takut kedatangan tanggal 16 September 2008 kerana di sana ada sesuatu yang mereka percaya akan berlaku. Jadi menyekat DSAI adalah menjadi keutamaan mereka yang paling atas.Saudara/Saudari Sekalian,Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim sedang berkempen untuk menghadapi Pilihan Raya Kecil Parlimen Permatang Pauh yang akan berlangsung pada 26 Ogos 2008 nanti. Kita semua maklum bahawa penyertaan beliau dalam pilihan raya kecil ini adalah untuk meneruskan perjuangan menegakkan keadilan sekaligus menentang penyalahgunaan kuasa, penyelewengan dan rasuah dalam pemerintahan negara seperti yang sedang kalut diperkatakan di dada-dada akhbar. Semua ini untuk membetulkan landasan supaya negara kita selamat dari ancaman kegelinciran iman, aqidah dan taqwa kepada Allah S.W.T.Walaupun telah dihina dan diaibkan dengan teruk 10 tahun lalu, saya perhatikan musuh-musuh yang tidak berperikemanusiaan tidak pernah puas untuk menzalimi beliau. Dengan modal yang sama, sekali lagi beliau difitnah dengan tuduhan yang tidak tergamak untuk saya menyebutnya.Saya tetap dengan pendirian bahawa fitnah terhadap Datuk Seri Anwar adalah konspirasi politik. Saya juga berpendirian bahawa sumpah yang dibuat oleh orang yang menuduh baru-baru ini penuh dengan persoalan dan keraguan.Atas kesedaran ini, jauh dari dasar hati biarpun terlantar di katil hospital, izinkan saya menggagahkan diri, merayu seluruh rakyat Malaysia tanpa mengira agama, bangsa dan fahaman politik menentang keras budaya fitnah dan konspirasi yang menjelekkan seumpama ini. Sikap protes ini harus lantang dan konsisten hingga sampai ke peti undi pada 26 Ogos 2008.Wassalam.DATO’ HAJI NIK ABDUL AZIZ BIN NIK MATMursyidul Am PAS

conversion and bar council forum

2008-08-11T03:36:00.000-07:00

i missed the forum. regret. actually in this century , we Malaysians should be ready to talk about religious - all religion without any worries and doubts. If you are fair minded , immeterial of your religious and cultural background you will be well equipped to accept ideas and suggestions. No one has the RIGHTS to question the pillars or fundamental core issues of a religion... I dont think that Bar Council is out to redicule any religion here... The era now is to move forward - exchange of information , idea - knowledge etc ... we should be free to talk and appreciate each other's opinion even if we do not agree to it.. Perhaps Bar Council will get the backing of all NGOs including all religious NGOs for a more closed-door gathering in future... I thank Datuk Ambika. lets put this chapter aside and move forward for a better understanding ....

chandra muzzafar .... I CANT HEAR YOU

2008-08-08T02:34:00.000-07:00

Mr.chandra muzzafar has no rights to question his former 'boss' anwar ibrahim for forming a new government via back door as reported in Malaysiakini today. Chandra once a staunch supporter of DSAI when he was the finance minister.... Later he became Deputy president of Keadilan contested in Bandar Tun Razak parlimentary seat and lost it.. It was a blessing that he left Keadilan... Now he has formed a movement called JUST and speak for world peace and harmony. Recently there was an International conference on religion and peace held in KL officiated by PM Abdullah.

He seems to be championing all social issues globally EXCEPT for his own country - Malaysia.... Generally, Malaysians do not give a damn to his opinions. People see him as an opportunist. I see no offence in MPs want to crossover to another party that is ready to bring about CHANGE ... for the betterment of the people and the country. Anwar is no pushover , he was the country's Deputy PM and Finance Minister. He has not only the malay majority support BUT most of Chinese , Indians let alone Sabahans and Sarawakians are behind him. It is a FORCE - PEOPLE'S POWER - MAKKAL SAKTHI , Chandra ... You missed the boat Brother .... Stay where you are JUST.

.....forum on conversion

2008-08-08T00:17:00.000-07:00

the malaysian bar council is going ahead with the forum on religious conversion tomorrow despite several objections from individuals and NGOs.... The issue I believe will be handle with care but objective by invited speakers. Public attending the forum should go with an open mind and share opinion and ideas for all well being. As a Hindu , I believe everyone has the right to practice their religion as mentioned in our Rukun Negara - Kepercayaan Kepada Tuhan and no one should be forced into something that they do not wish to do ....
I also would like to take into task the many Hindu NGOs and major temples for their negligence in propagating the religion and proper teaching of Hinduism to the younger generation.. when WE fail ; we go around and blame the whole system... Hindu NGOs in malaysia need new leadership with selfless and broad minded..

NEW FINANCE MINISTER

2008-08-07T03:57:00.000-07:00

we are getting too tired of politicing. ENOUGH ... we have to move on .. business has to go on -people -nation want peace and prosperity. Government 's priority is to ensure PnP are in tact.
2008 is the year of sacrifices - for good and for bad...
all levels and walks of people are eagerly waiting the nation's recovery time ... we need a capable finance minister - smart and selfess - recognised by economic pundits- the current FM1 and 2 are hopeless ... not fit to be there ... I can say Dr.M did a better job anyway ... we need a sacrificial ceremony - FM2 has to go ....

LET HJ HADI BE THE PM NOW

2008-08-06T03:23:00.000-07:00

As the nation going to witness a trail soon on another allegation of sodomy on FDPM anwar ibrahim. One wonder how Malaysians , especifically malay muslims will take it .. a series of embarassement ,when a national leader is being charged again for a similar offence.
we are not short of cases of same nature .. some time back this year , an MP , a former minister was reported to conduct sexual molest against a sales girl in a leading hotel in KL . The case was reported to police but since it is very silent now... the MP is reported to be close associate of a senior Minister.One wonder why there is no news on this case...
Not forgeting the Altantuya murder trail , and bro. bala's SD ....

I think the Proposed Cabinet for Pakatan Rakyat with YB DS HJ.Hadi as PM is a good idea. Nation need a new wake up - so far PAS is clean from all these scandals .... Hadi is a better choice for the moment ... Anwar can still wait...

when you are weak admit and give way

2008-07-25T02:18:00.000-07:00

the latest merc scandal in terengganu state government is yet another clear evidence that the Chief is not in control. He is weak , very weak.

He decides against his own directive , his cabinet directive to use local made proton perdana instead of merc. At las the chief minister of Trengganu won... another victory for him after a 'coup' to become the new CM .

Oh God , we have a WEAK PM , he cant even decides what is right for the people ... I always share this with my friends ... during difficult time the PM suggest bi-monthly salary for civil servants . Oh , what a brilliant idea , thank God Cuepacs came to rescue. How could one split his salary into half during hard time brother ? the idea may be good for newly employeed people but not the exisiting workforce...wonder whose idea is this ? 2nd hand finance minister ?

constituitional monarch

2008-07-22T03:58:00.000-07:00

In his speech by the Prince of Perak recently , His highness expressed concerned on dragging palace into local politics. He stressed the strict discipline that need to put in practice and draw a clear line between politics and palace. His apt remarks help ease the wrong perception by people/his subject in general the role of palace.

Malaysians in total respect the palace and hold them as symbol of pride , culture and unity... May His Highness's views and stand will be shared and practiced by all in the respected positions.

Hello YB , Do you know the meaning of TEPAT ?

2008-07-16T21:13:00.000-07:00

The arrest of Anwar Ibrahim yesterday before 2 pm deadline is an act of I shall call it un- professional . It is a shame on our police authority. Segambut to KL during non peak hours takes you only 15 minutes to arrive... And The DeputyHome Minister as reported in dailies to day when asked ,,,, why the police had not waited until 2pm before making the arrest, WanFarid said: "What's the difference between 20 or 50 minutes?"What a STUPID reply ... TEPAT a slogan used by police means exact ; even 1 minute makes different YB ; It shows one's mentality of being so ignorant , uneducated and speak before thinking !! Do you deserve a man like him as a minister ? It shows how poor minded Pak Lah's cabinet is,.

arrest ? politically motivated

2008-07-16T02:33:00.000-07:00

the whole nation is stunned again after news of former Deputy Prime Minister being arrested today. less than 24 hours after the live debate with the government minister that saw Anwar's credibility in leadership ; he is now under police custody. Call to remain calm by Anwar is most welcomed since choas will not do any good for him and the party. The PM in waiting has nation wide supporters and will surely come out free to lead the nation....acid test for PR and his supporters...by the way is Bala around ?

difficult time ; work overtime

2008-07-14T23:48:00.001-07:00

When world is facing financial crisis , we have to battle it out , fight poverty , engage new trade ideas like barter system and stand against our friendly competitors in this region.

But sad to notice that we have ongoing political problems than any of our neighbouring countries like Singapore and Indonesia and Vietnam....

Pro-long political instability is not a good sign for a developing nation like Malaysia. Political parties now should put nation above party interest. Ruling or opposition party should know their constructive role in nation building . If this is a new experience , then learn from Indonesia , India , UK and United States - on how to BEHAVE as ruling and opposition governments....in a 2 party system / government.

The post GE 12 is a Change in our political environment - we are ' the people want a 2 party ststem .. we will keep one and throw the other if one doesnt perform. people have option now unlike before -now we have BN and PR .

The power is with the people. BN or PR can go and come ... people stays . 3-4 years arent a long period ; so work , work and work .... I believe the CM of Penang is on the right track - and I hope all CMs will follow his style of managing states... even the seasoned BN MBs need to learn 1 or 2 tricks from YAB Lim...

Be a Pro-YB .......

FOR GOD SAKE SPEAK THE TRUTH

2008-07-04T19:53:00.000-07:00

Because truth alone prevail. P.Balasubramaniam , I appeal to you as a malaysian Indian to speak only the truth and come out clean because its no longer you as an individual ... your act affected the national leaders and the nation. your U-turn act within 24 hrs made us the malaysian Indian look as if we are people of lier , insincere , opportunist etc .. remember one BN state assemblywoman's racist remark recently .. I hope no Malaysians will do this in future - whole wolrd is looking at us , this is not the attitude of malaysians in general , i hope quick justice must take place , justice delayed ; justice denied .remember that God is Truth

just want hurdle for PM in waiting

2008-06-28T22:08:00.000-07:00

Yesterday's late night news claiming police arrest on anwar ibrahim , the former DPM , now believe by people the next PM. One must remember he has more support than before... more Indian and Chinese are behind you.... If you trust in God ... Go ahead DSAI , you are the only hope of the nation... WE PRAY FOR YOU ANWAR.

KAMAL'S GLOBAL MESSAGE

2008-06-24T05:36:00.000-07:00

I saw Kamal Hassan's latest movie Dasavatharam { 10 reincarnation} in cinema. Paid extra rate to watch the most expensive movie ever from Tamil Nadu. Again Kamal took the risk of touching heavy issues on screen. Typical viewers want a light and easy subject - a good storyline with some laughs .... Like any other movies produced in India.

I believe he wanted to send a message out to people on preserving mother earth , unity and love .He demonstrated his multi-talent in a very superb manner. He is definately next to Sivaji Ganesan.
I wish him more success and hope to see him as a successful film director in future.
In this century Kamal is cinema , Cinema is Kamal . Bravo .

EURO 2008 - GERMANY VS PORTUGAL

2008-06-20T01:47:00.000-07:00

last night I happened to meet Razak my old friend at setapak. we chat all stories from politics to families. when parting I told him to pray hard for Portugal to win - his favorite team ; unfortunately my friend did not subscribes to astro and hence will not be able to watch the game live...... Well CELCOM this is really unfair to people who solely rely on free tv channels like rtm and the other private channels like tv3 , 7, 8, anf 9 .

I do not know whom to be blamed for the match distribution and why astro has all the matches and Media Prima dont ? Who pays for the rights fee astro or media prima?

THE local viewers of free channels deserve fair treatment ...
I am sorry Razak.

create asean TV channel

2008-06-18T22:02:00.000-07:00

In today' s NST pg.2 , " Professor Dr.Dewi Fortuna Anwar has mentioned that there was a continuing lack of trust among asean families.She further claimed that the Indo-Malaysia relationships is at a low point since Indonesia became more democratic. She added freedom of Indonesia media had let to strident criticsms of Malaysia"

Creation of asean TV will bring the ties between the government and people of each other nation closer . I believe satellite channel operator ASTRO should play a social role here...

Prof. Dr.Dewi is the Director for programming and research at the Habibie Centre in Indonesia.

Tun Mahathir , Sorry you to be blamed too

2008-06-18T21:42:00.000-07:00

TM has blamed Samy for MIC's defeat in recent GE. He further claimed that Samy is a lousy selfish leader .TM also accused him of letting the community down. My concern is Tun you too let the community down , you are the supremo of BN and a powerful PM for 22 years why then you kept quite about Samy -just because MIC was delivering 100% victory in the past GE , so you choose to close one eye ? You assumed the Indian vote bank are solidly behind BN so why rock the boat then... again the issue here is not community care but vote bank and political survival of individual. TM also accused Samy of not letting the other Indian based parties to join BN ...Samy veto the entry of any other party and kept MIC as the sole rep of indian community.Again , its not Samy alone to be blamed , its your BN rules that practice the veto system. I appeal to Hon. TM and Samy to take a complete break from political mainstream and if at along they want to chat and let go their frustration - go private.

family head should be respected

2008-06-18T02:56:00.000-07:00

on the day i give birth to my blog ; the family head of my nation ; the PM is slapped with a move to call for vote of no confidence.... first time in malaysian history. not a good start for me

start with my land as a family

2008-06-17T22:03:00.000-07:00

i must not dream for world as one family yet ; my dream is to see malaysia as one family , after 50 years of freedom , we are heading nowhere . people's mindset must change and CHANGE is the magic mantra ....
