911 is here once more... Tribute to the three Malaysians who perished

911

By Emmanuel Surendra

9/11 is here. Much has been said about it. And I don’t think we’d need another post telling us the logic of it or a comparative post on post 9/11 thoughts and the Malaysian situation or a delusional one that still lingers in conspiracy. Here’s an interesting testimony found here via yangsquare.com. It goes something like this:

PSM kecam sistem kehakiman Malaysia gagal bela HAK TANAH ORANG ASAL

Oleh S. Arutchelvan, S/usaha Agung PSM

Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) kesal dengan tindakan Mahkamah Persekutuan yang tidak berani membuat keputusan mengiktiraf hak tanah adat masyarakat Orang Asal di dalam kes yang difailkan oleh Bato Bagi dan lima lagi. Keputusan yang dibuat oleh Ketua Hakim Negara Tun Zaki Azmi, Hakim Mahkamah Besar Sabah dan Sarawak Tan Sri Richard Malanjum dan Hakim Mahkamah Persekutuan, Datuk Seri Md Raus Shariff membuktikan sekali lagi sistem kehakiman negara ini gagal memberi keadilan kepada masyarakat tertindas.

‘Sabah is on the right track to success’

Former Sabah Chief Minister Salleh Said Keruak believes that the
state has progressed by leaps and bounds since Independence.

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah State Assembly Speaker, Salleh Said Keruak, firmly believes that Sabah and Malaysia are on the right track to achieving state and national targets.

To him both state and nation have already seen tremendous developments.

But he was just as quick to point out that there was still much more that could be done to meet the desires of Sabahans in general.

Demands for seats increase not as rational as they sound

By Daniel John Jambun
We have noticed that for a while now there has been a lot of proposal to increase the number of parliamentary and state seats, with most of the opposition as well as the ruling coalition members supporting the move. Only Datuk Lajim Ukin has so far expressed disagreement with his colleagues’ proposal. He said this doesn’t make sense because the number of voters in some seats are too small, e.g. his Beaufort parliamentary constituency is only about 28,000 while the Sipitang and Kimanis parliamentary constituencies have only about 22,000 each.

Death Of An Empire

By Dr Nasir Hashim, President PSM

Did I not tell you about this senile Empire ?

   With its pompous guardians constipating at its door steps

      Festered by collusions, greed, profits, demi-gods and lost directions

But did I also not tell you how they fervently dig graves for others ?

     Too sedated and too dumb to realize that’s their very own

Did I tell you how their bastion of power crumbling like nine pins ?

Yet they think that’s progress

So they pride 

     Over slogans, promises and innuendoes  

         Destroying the very dreams that they ever fostered

So the Empire continues to wallow in jaundiced gusto

  Shackling the innocence at every twist and turn of time

     Claiming victory for their flaccid democracy and justice

Now you are witnessing the Empire’s ‘broken chain of command’

   Of misdirected priorities and competing opportunists

       Flip flop decisions, casting aspersions and intense blame games   

         Stumbling to pamper warped truths and spineless agencies

            Clamouring and clawing to ‘catch the eye’ of their master

 

You should also see within their rabid ranks

How hidden agenda so craftily designed

   To wrest power and refining character assassinations

     Inventing and reinventing scapegoats  

       Conjuring wild scenarios to nurture foul intentions

           Staging a ‘siege mentality’ through traitorous media pimps

So they declared war against their own people

Yet so afraid of repercussion and their own measly shadows

So they shut themselves

     In fortresses of body guards, black magic and gangsters in uniform

         Imbuing demented underlings to do their national biddings

Hark

Did you not hear the cries of the down trodden ?

     And the roar of defiance transcending all bounds

         Hacking away the chains of oppression and exploitation

            Persevering through ‘thick and thin’ over smoking gas, chemical waters,

              Battering rams, beaten bodies, cracked head, broken ribs, open wounds and

                 Mammoth arrests

Yet waves upon waves of humanity continue to throttle the Empire

Yet its lackeys  

   Continue to live in denial and lavishing in false comfort

     Clutching desperately onto illusions and blatant lies

So this struggle goes on in ever fiery circle

 Paralyzing the capitalists, opportunists, parasites, jingoists, racists and power brokers

But then, when the Empire and its lackeys are dead and gone

      Will you then resurrect another Empire of the same ?

Nay … the empowered masses will summon the very marrow of your existence

    To deal a crushing blow

       To all pretensions and exploitations. 

Scapegoating Christians: Another rotting fish from UMNO to share with PBS UPKO

The Jais-DUMC row is starting to stink to high heaven. Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad has just revealed that the ‘Christianization’ issue was actually concocted by UMNO in a bid to bring down the Selangor state government headed by PKR Mentri Besar or Chief Minister Khalid Ibrahim.

UMNO had allegedly tried to use their stalwarts in Jais or the Selangor Islamic Religious Affairs Department to coax the Sultan into removing Khalid Ibrahim on the basis that he had allowed Christianity to spread in the state.

The Malay cock syndrome

Raja Petra Kamarudin
You may have noticed that the ‘hot’ news these past few weeks is all about so-and-so challenging so-and-so to do this, that or the other. Mat Sabu challenges so-and-so, Khairy Jamaluddin challenges so-and-so, so-and-so challenges Anwar Ibrahim, so-and-so challenges Najib Tun Razak, and whatnot.

And these challenges are followed by allegations of takde telur, takde batu, takde pelir (which all means no balls or, as the Chinese would say, boh chuntoi), pondan (transvestite), eunuch, and so on.
