Youth leader Vigneswaran has left the party and more are following his way out of the aging party. But who will be the next president come the next party election?? Will the new leader be able to totally revamp the pary which is increasingly becoming un-relevant?

Pak Lah, a good Prime Minister?

Since 3/8, many people have argued that Pak Lah has to step down as the Prime Minister of Malaysia. After the defeat suffered by his party, Pak Lah still took a courageous step forward and decided to be the PM for Malaysia for another term. I am proud of him. I am also happy because I don’t know what would have happened if Najib or anyone else in BN would have been the PM.

I was happy when Pak Lah was first elected as the Prime Minister of Malaysia. I am of the opinion that he is a good man and a cleaner politician compared to the others in his team. He is the only one left in BN that is capable of being the PM. The others have too much dirt in their hands and heads and thus cannot run this country.

Yes, he has made a few costly mistakes and the most costly one was to listen to his BN alliance instead of the Rakyat themselves. If only he would have taken the time to hear the HINDRAF leaders out, I think BN would have won the 2/3 majority. He chose to listen to Samy Vellu and subsequently he had to pay a very costly price. I also hope that he stops sleeping during functions. That’s an embarrassment!!!

If we had anyone else as the PM, I don’t think we would have had an election like this. There would have been more foul play, dirty tricks, chaos and etc. I am not saying that we had a clean election but it was just better than if anyone else from BN would have been the leader. Thank GOD!

I heard Pak Lah addressing the Rakyat a few days ago. After so long, this was the first time I heard him speak so freely. I hope he continues to speak up and stop taking the blame and carry the burden of others on his shoulders. Everyone has to face the consequences of their action. Right from the beginning Pak Lah has given his ministers the freedom to deal with issues and make decisions. Unfortunately, the ministers he had were useless and thus the massive misuse of power. Pak Lah should now let his ministers carry on to be free to make decisions but he has to have a leash tied to them. When they get a bit out of hand, he has to pull them back and warn them instead of letting them run loose.

However, with the strong Barisan Rakyat present today, I am sure they won’t be able to run too far away. The Barisan Rakyat will be there to ensure that the ministers perform their job.

Pak Lah, sorry to say this, I think you have a bunch of useless people around you. Some of your guys have still not learnt their lesson and are still trying to play the racial game. A good example would be Khir Toyo. Are they out of their mind? Come on, its time to grow up. Ask them to start behaving professionally if they want to gain the support of the Rakyat back in the next election.

However, no offence to you Pak Lah, I think this would be your last term as PM. The next election the Barisan Rakyat will take over. They have already started to prove that they are what they say they are. I think they will continue to progress and the the people will be supporting them. Kami bukan Melayu, Cina atau India. Kami Bangsa Malaysia!!!!

“Saya tak tau”!!!

The Chairman of the Election Commission has just declared that BN has won 127 Parliamentary seats and simply said “Tak Tau” to how many seats were won by opposition. Look at Koh Tsu Koon, perfect gentleman. He is a true leader who accepted defeat with grace. Tan Sri Abdul Rashid, the government went all out to keep you in office and even thought it necessary to amend the Federal Constitution just to keep you in office and all you could afford to do in return is to say “tak tau”. Job well done Sir!!!!

PAS creates History in Wilayah!

Congrats Dr. Lo’Lo’. You made history. PAS for the first time won a Parliamentary seat in Wilayah. This has never happened before. Many said that PAS will not support women in politics. You proved that they were all wrong and revealed the true and changing PAS. Really proud of is changing its identity and is appealing to non-muslims and is changing its previous image which was a party for Muslims. Just for the records, my whole family, and by the way we are non-Muslims voted for you. This shows that PAS has started to get the support of non-muslims. This is a very proud day for me.

NTV best election coverage!!!!

For those of you who want to see an independent media channel or want to hear to good comments, please tune in to NTV 7. The panel, Honey Tan Lay Fan and Dr. Rizal bin Mohd Yakob are really good. Their views are really mind opening. It would appeal to anyone who wants to have a direct and honest view of the elections. On the other hand, TV3 is trying to incite problems. They blame everyone for the loss of BN instead of blaming themselves for the failure to deliver the requests of the people. NTV 7, you are doing a good job. Keep it up.

A Good Start!!!!

Wow!!! I can’t believe what I am seeing. This is the best thing that has happened in Malaysia in the past 50 years. DAP has taken over Penang and PAS has taken over Kedah and has continued their hold over Kelantan. This is really good news. Samy Vellu, Sharizat, Ong Ka Ting and Rafidah Aziz out. Sammy, what a great 72nd Birthday present for you!!! Malaysians have finally united to fight for our rights. We are no longer going be to taken for a ride. I am proud to be a Malaysian voter. Its was my first time voting and what a great experience. A real good start for opposition to start proving that they are better than BN and that they deliver what they promise. Lets get started!!!

Indians are not suffering alone!

Indians are not the only people suffering in this country. There are Malays, Chinese and many others. They face the same problems but in different aggregates. Many of them don’t have identification cards, birth certificates, illiterate, poor, effected by the quota system, not having jobs that they qualify for because they don’t have the right contacts, not able to practice the religion of their choice and the list goes on.

I have read a few blogs that have commented that the Christian community have started to take some actions in order to defend their rights. They have been denied their right to use the term “Allah” in their church sermons because the government says that it is a term that is exclusive only for Muslims. Who is the government to make such a decision? Who is the government to deny this right to the rakyat? Now, these are sensitive issues to many but sometimes they have to be discussed because some idiots don’t understand what his/her religion is about and goes on to make such stupid interpretations that effect others from different faiths.

The government should understand that Malaysians are a mature bunch, we know right from wrong and without instigation and more attention perhaps problems can be cut off before it reaches boiling points.

Is that a threat?

I was always proud to be a Malaysian. However, in these past few years I have started to wonder as to whether I will continue to be a proud Malaysian.

I look at Malaysia today. Its not the Malaysia I thought I would have lived in 10 years ago. Perhaps, while I was a student, I was ignorant of the things happening around me.

Today (February 29 of 2008), our freedom to vote has been threatened. Perak Gerakan Chief, Datuk Chang Ko Youn in his speech in Ulu Ayer Tawar, Perak had accused the Indians of being “emotional murderers”. He said “the community should not resort to the drastic action of voting against Barisan as this would backfire on them”.

What did he mean? Was it a threat? Is he giving us an ultimatum?

Well, I have news for him. We have already been having it bad with Barisan led government. How much worst can it get?

Act of desperation!!!!

If anyone feels stressed out at work, I suggest u watch our local news channels especially RTM 1 and RTM 3. Its really very entertaining. U can watch all our BN candidates sucking up to our rakyat to get their votes.

It was really funny today to watch Samy Vellu telling the Indian community to stop asking MIC “What have you done for us?” According to our bald old man, MIC has done far too much for the Indian community that he can’t even give a few good examples. He then goes on to tell the Indians to vote for Koh Tsu Koon and that he will take care of us. Now isn’t that funny?

Is he trying to tell us that MIC betul-betul dah tak boleh pakai or is he just pulling out a white rabbit from the hat to make up for his lost support? Crazy old man!!!!!!!!!
