The most hated man in Malaysia

By Harris Ibrahim.

Dear Mahathir,

Malaysian insider reports that you had "defended the social contract, the so-called unwritten agreement between the Malays and the non-Malays during independence, by affirming that without the agreement, Malaysia would not have been formed".

They quoted you :

"If there was no social contract, the terms and conditions of allowing citizenship to non-Malays would have not taken place.One million outsiders were given citizenships at the time."

Now, this quote from you got me curious.

Let me tell you why.

Sampai hati Pairin kata begitu... kata pegawai khas Dr Jeffrey yang ada sama beliau setiap masa

Oleh Ezra Haganez

Siang malam Dr Jeffrey fikirkan untung-nasib rakyat Sabah,
Pairin sanggup kata demikian? kata pembantu Jeffrey

KENINGAU : Seorang pegawai khas pemimpin Parti Reformasi Negeri (STAR) Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, yang sentiasa berada bersama beliau, hari ini menepis cubaan Presiden Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) Joseph Pairin Kitingan menimbulkan syak-wasangka rakyat terhadap perjuangan adiknya.

Julian Lian, dalam kenyataan pedasnya hari ini di sini berkata Pairin seperti sudah terdesak dalam kenyataannya yang berbaur serangan peribadi dan memperkecil-kecil kepimpinan Dr Jeffrey yang semakin mendapat sokongan padu rakyat khususnya di kawasan Kadazandusun dan Murut, kawasan tradisi PBS yang selama ini menyokong Pairin tapi sudah mual dengan kepimpinan lembab beliau.

The Cambodian boy and his "sister," the python

When this Cambodian boy was just three months old,  his father found a half-meter python in his bed,   The father did not kill the reptile, and took the snake back into the jungle, but the next day, the snake crawled in again. The python was taken back to the jungle three times, but he stubbornly came back. "Lucky" grew up to 6 feet and weighs about 100 kg. Python eats only chicken and duck; eats 10 kg per week. The snake can safely eat a boy or a horse --  but the boy says he and the python enjoy a “brother-sister” relationship.

Pairin should pay "sogit" if he uttered word "mendiang" on Jeffrey

By Fredoline Edwin Lojingki

Jambun to Mositun: Let’s debate on what’s best for Sabah

By Daniel John Jambun

KOTA KINABALU: State Reform Party (STAR) has taken exception to the statement by PBS’ Information Chief Datuk Johnny Mositun who said Datuk Dr. Jefrrey Kitingan and STAR have been making unrealistic promises to fish for support.

STAR Deputy Chairman, Daniel John Jambun, said here today that there is a fundamental difference between the PBS mentality and the vision of STAR. “PBS thinks of Sabah as one of the 13 states while STAR thinks of Sabah and Sarawak as the Borneo states under the Borneo Alliance pursuing the Borneo Agenda which is seeking rights and autonomy from the domination of Peninsular Malaysia,” he said. “Maybe PBS has forgotten that Malaysia was formed as a four-nation Federation and not a combination of 14 unitary states.”

Kekuatan Mencapai Kemenangan

Ini bukan sekadar percubaan
Atau sengaja menguji kekuatan

Bukan pula hanya sekadar impian
Jauh sekali mainan menggapai awan

Begitu kita melangkah
Ranjau duri pun tidak lagi dikesah

Dengan iman kita melihat pemulihan
Dengan iman kita merasai pembaharuan
Dengan iman kita melakukan pembebasan
Dengan iman kita bertindak memulangkan

Kasih-Nya tidak pernah berkesudahan
Untuk semua umat-Nya yang bertahan

Berjuang selamanya untuk Sabah
Sehingga jasad tersemadi di tanah
