Professor Khoo has been educated beyond his intelligence. His statements about Malaya belonging to the so-called Malays do not hold water.
 
Tanah Melayu refers to Malay reservation land and wherever the Malays stayed. In Sarawak, they refer to Tanah Dayak wherever the Dayak communities stay. So, do we rename Sarawak as Persekutuan Tanah Dayak?
 
The Malay-speaking communities in Peninsular Malaysia are not the Orang Asal or Natives. Read the Constitution.

Star upset with Sapp ‘dirty tactics’ mulls options

By Joe Fernandez 
It appears that ties between the Sabah chapter of the Borneo-based State Reform Party (Star) and the Sabah Progressive Party (Sapp) could be “much better” if not for the latter’s insistence on contesting in 40 state seats and almost a third, about five to seven, of the parliamentary seats in Sabah. The party reiterated this stand at its meet on Sun in Kota Kinabalu.

Before the 40/5-7 Sun announcement by Sapp, Star had been publicly toying with the “goodwill gesture” of conceding two state seats -- Likas and Luyang -- and one (Tawau) of the two parliamentary seats it (Sapp) won in 2008 as a member of the ruling BN. Star itself had announced in mid-April that it would go for all 60 state seats at stake in Sabah and 26 parliamentary seats including Labuan.

The Last Colony: On The Moroccan Occupation Of Western Sahara

By Malainin Lakhal

The West often portrays itself as the champion of democracy, rule of law and human rights. Yet, when we look at Western Sahara, the hypocrisy and dishonesty in such portrayals are laid bare. The story of Western Sahara – the plight of its people and their struggle for freedom – is willingly and deliberately ignored by Western powers and mainstream international media despite the fact that it is the last colony standing in the African continent.

Western Sahara – bordered by Morocco, Algeria, Mauritania and the Atlantic Ocean – first fell under Spanish rule in 1884, becoming a Spanish province in 1934. In 1975, the colonial master signed an illegal pact – known as the Madrid Agreement – with Morocco and Mauritania abandoning the North African territory to invasions. Following the pact, Morocco and Mauritania moved to annex the territory while Spain ensured its interests in the exploitation of natural resources in the region.

Oleh : JAYANTHI GEETHA SUKUMARAN

KERAJAAN Persekutuan digesa mengharamkan Dewan Perniagaan dan Perindustrian India Muslim Sabah (DPPIMS) yang selama ini menjadi pelindung kepada pendatang haram India yang mendapat kerakyatan songsang di Sabah.

Aktivis Masyarakat dan Hak Asasi Manusia, Datuk Patrick Sindu membuat gesaan demikian sebagai mengulas keputusan Perdana Menteri untuk melaksanakan penubuhan Suruhanjaya Siasatan DiRaja (RCI) bagi mengatasi isu PATI dan kerakyatan songsang di Sabah setelah terma rujukan (TOR) diselesaikan dalam masa yang terdekat.
Menurut Patrick, 99 peratus ahli DPPIMS adalah pendatang asing India yang mendapat atau membeli Mykad Projek daripada Sindiket Kad Pengenalan; termasuk daripada pegawai dan kakitangan Jabatan Pendaftaran Sabah.

Ghost of 666 yet to be buried

By Philip Golingai

Peter Mojuntin, the then Sabah Local and Housing Minister, was a living legend. Even today, 36 years after his death, his name is spoken with reverence.

HERE’S my recollection of the “Triple Six” tragedy which struck Sabah on June 6, 1976. That year, I was nine years old. It was a Sunday and I was at a wooden house that was my family’s weekend getaway in Kampung Pogunon, Penampang.

News – probably from the radio – trickled through that a Nomad aircraft had crashed in Sembulan, about 16km from my village, as it was about to land at Kota Kinabalu airport at around 3.30pm.

There was talk that some Sabah ministers were onboard the aircraft and they had been rushed to hospital.

Prayer answered

A man worked in a post office. His job was to process all mail that had illegible addresses.
One day a letter came to his desk, addressed in a shaky handwriting to God. He thought,
"I better open this one and see what it's all about." 

So he opened it and it read:
"Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse.
It had a hundred dollars in it which was all the money I had until my next pension check." "Next Sunday is Easter,
