Save Our Town; Bangkitlah Warga Papar Part I

Papar,2 Oktober: Sebelum kapal saya layarkan,sebelum sauh saya labuhkan ingin saya beritahu-PILIHANRAYA SUDAH DEKAT dan ini hanya pendapat saya sebagai seorang rakyat.


Pembangunan yang significant di papar?Tiada.

Walaupun pemimpinnya sudah lama memegang jawatan dan menteri.

Kita lihat Putatan, Penampang dan Sandakan; sungguh pesat berkembang.

Jadi mana silapnya?

Penduduk sendiri keluar mencari rezeki sebab tiada pelaburan besar ditarik ke daerah sendiri untuk mencipta pekerjaan untuk rakyat.

Harap tuan empunya diri sedar dan turunlah,masa anda sudah tiba dan biar orang baru pula menganti. Jawatan Wakil Rakyat itu bukannya harta pusaka untuk anda turunkan kepada keluarga.Ramai lagi yang layak dan mampu memimpin daerah ini.

Step down and leave a 'legacy' rather than ousted like Thaksin cause we had enough Datuk, you served us well but not enough so lets save this town and make an impact in the next General Election!

May God bless Papar and the people, May God Save you Datuk.

John Perkins - A Confessions of An Economic Hitman.

This post is a review of a book I just finished reading after going book-hunting with YT (Yang Tersayang) Rayhan Mohamad 3 weeks ago because most of the bookstores either has no stocks left nor they do sell the book. Due to other commitments, I only finish reading the 250 pages book after a month buying it.Rarely will I post in my blog about a book but this book is an exception because this book is worth telling for.

So here it goes...

This book is a true story, as been said by the title. Its a confession. A confession of An Economic Hitman. A confession of John Perkins.

As surprised did I know that there is a political broker in politics, but a hitman in economics? Cool.

These Economic Hit men are highly paid professionals who cheat countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars. Their tools include fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex and murder. They play a game as old as Empire but one that has taken on terrifying dimensions during his time of globalization and to John Perkins it was to serve the global empire, the greed of the powerful and influential.

John Perkins was an Economic Hitman for an international consulting firm that worked to convince poorer countries to accept enormous development loans and to make sure that such projects were contracted to the United States companies. Once these countries were saddled with huge debts, the American government would request their "pound of flesh" in favors, including access to natural resources, military cooperation and political support. Countries who have been trapped are Indonesia, Panama, Ecuador, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan and Venezuela to name a few. Malaysia? I hope not.

There's so much more to tell such on how America brought down leaders of the countries who opposed against them and put their own puppet to rule the country as what happened to Saudi Arabia and Indonesia. There's just so much to tell and share but due to time and energy constraints I have to stop here. This is a must read book! A rating of 5/5, a 10/10.

Thus Malaysia lets start to protect our little country and lets stop the infighting. Malaysia Boleh!

Liow Tiong Lai; Only a puppet.

Who is Liow Tiong Lai?

He is a Malaysian politician who is currently serving as the Health Minister in the Malaysian cabinet. He is the Vice President of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA), a major component party of the Barisan Nasional ruling coalition.

He has been fighting for fresh polls since the 10/10  MCA EGM and when he has got what he desires; he's contesting for the DEPUTY PRESIDENT?WTF?

You have been going all around Malaysia pushing and influencing delegates for a fresh election because (to you) it is the only way to save the MCA from its current (leadership) crisis and now you got what you want you ONLY contest for the DEPUTY PRESIDENT?you upset me Datuk Seri.

Why not contest for the top post?You're the one who said the MCA needs new leaders to save MCA.Why cant you be that leader SAVING MCA?WHY NOT BE THAT SAVIOUR THAT YOU THINK MCA NEEDS?

Oh I forgot why not because you're only a puppet for someone who is greater than you.Someone more powerful.Someone who wants to comeback and SAVE MCA but I dont want to talk about him.I just want to write about you Datuk Seri because to me you've just risk you're whole 29 years of political career.

Generally as a political observer of Malaysian politics, the grounds are blaming you for making the situation in the MCA worse than it is and from my point of view; I agree because you're the one who ran back and forth influencing the delegates and CC members that the MCA needs fresh elections.You're the one who did all the dirty work for "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named."

I just want to wish you good-luck because today you're the Health Minister in the Malaysian cabinet and the Vice President of the MCA but after 28th March I doubt you will thus prove me wrong.

  

Yet nevertheless I would like to thank you for making a great drama, Politics has never been this good.

HAIYAAAAAAAAH!

Hold interfaith dialogue; Honestly please.

Religions and race: Face what is perhaps the greatest challenge they have ever encountered in these times and moments and that is to preserve their religious and cultural uniqueness without letting it operate as a cause of narrow and divisive sectarianism that contradicts the vision of unity and peace. 

Dialogue among the different faiths is a way of conversing and thinking together openly: just like a parachute, the mind works best when it is open and like a flower its will look beautiful when it opens; religions is beautiful. It will dissolve barriers that divide and so revolutionise and change one’s way of thinking by widening the horizons about other faiths and taking responsibility for one’s actions.

The move towards interfaith dialogue encourages building trust, meeting common challenges and addressing conflictive and divisive issues, among other focuses. It can be viewed as a way not only to become informed about the faiths of others but also to rediscover essential dimensions of one’s own religious traditions. 

The benefits of removing historical prejudices and enmities as well as the new possibilities for working together for common good ought to be recognised and affirmed.

Interfaith dialogue is an encounter between people who live by different faith traditions, in an atmosphere of mutual trust and acceptance. 

Dialogue does not require giving up, hiding or seeking to validate one’s own religious conviction.

In dialogue one sees a new and creative relationship within which one can learn about and respect others and also to give authentic witness to one’s own faith. It should be viewed as a common pilgrimage towards the truth, within which each tradition shares with the others the way it has come to perceive and respond to that truth.

In dialogue the walls of religious bigotry, that has been inconsistent with freedom and modern living, can be dismantled. 

Now is the time through interfaith dialogue to see whether the healing light of religious vision will overcome the social and ideological issues that underline much of the conflict between religions today. 

Hold interfaith dialogue honestly please.

Malaysia; we have a problem.

Generally we can see the overwhelming support of the public towards the announcement that the cabinet decision to put away with the requirement to indicate one’s race in government official forms.

Many opine that it will remove a barrier that inhibits us from achieving Bangsa Malaysia. The requirement is said to remind us of our individual race instead of being Malaysian. It is also seen as a positive effort in line with the 1Malaysia concept.

However, I am intrigued as to why these like-minded Malaysians are silent when another initiative with similar objectives was put forward. Such as the proposal to introduce the single education system as practiced the world over. Malaysian children will grow up to be fine citizens with a sound understanding of the different races and the need to stay as one. On the contrary, a child who goes to a vernacular school will be deprived of this opportunity.

Thus, I fail to understand why on one hand we object to practices that separate us as a people but at the same time we condone those having similar features. We should all ask the question whether we are being honest with ourselves?Think twice,Act wise!

If we aspire to realize a 'Bangsa Malaysia' and believe in 1Malaysia, we should support the introduction of the single school system and put serious efforts to make it a success.

And Malaysia,we do have a problem here; with honesty.

Saddistic damn story.

To my opinions today,  the action taken by the MACC has made the front page of the newspapers.  Is that an achievement or the other way around; just to smooth the public eyes by catching the oh-small-tiny baby fish. Well done but are THEY or may I say WE serious about going after the big fish who have fished the government? 

cause something fishy smells in here 


-Are we serious about fighting corruption, abuse and misuse of power and funds and moral decay? Or do we continue making statement after statement expecting people to change?
-Do we go after those with soiled hands without fear or favour? Do we seriously want to see that taxpayers’ money is used in a transparent manner and that those responsible are accountable for their actions? 

It is getting more and more frustrating reading and learning about wrongdoers who are still walking talking eating in our streets, and hoping to continue to exploit the weaknesses in our system.

My opinions are not based on gossip or rumors but are based on hard facts-

Oh dont believe me? OK.


Lets take a walk down memory lane to remind you of it. Forget the Port Klang Free Zone for a moment
(though it will never be forgotten). Here are SOME NOT ALL issues that are the most "worthy" to recall:

-Former Tourism Minister Datuk Azalina Othman’s excess staffs as far as staffing was concerned. She had 20 staff which contravenes the Public Services Department (PSD)’s regulations limiting the appointments to only eight.(Can't you count Datuk?). The minister’s office had three special officers, five political officers, one research officer, six information technology officers and five support staff. Some appointments were backdated to circumvent circulars from the PSD and the Treasury and there was no proper selection process as the posts were not advertised and to note you are only the Tourism Minister not the Finance or Education Minister that are way more important and requires more staff.

-The globe-trotting-traveling VIP wives in Selangor still continue to flaunt their designer clothes and branded handbags despite their shenanigans being laid bare at a public inquiry. Is it not abuse of power?

-The National Sports Council which at one time or another had RM350 million in the bank is now unable to pay athletes. Does anyone bother to find out where the money went and on the extravagance of certain officials who defend themselves by saying: "Saya yang menurut perintah"?

-What about the abuses that have been highlighted in the auditor-general’s report every year? Has anyone been "hanged" for wrongdoings? May be, one or two ikan bilis, but what about the ikan yu and those who gave the go-ahead? They are being promoted to higher positions and together come the perks – state or national awards. 

I am no soothsayer or doomsayer. I am just another rakyat who is committed to seeing transparency and accountability at work. But having said that, all I can say is that nothing will ever change unless our leaders have the determination and political will to bring about a radical set of norms and morals to be emulated by all the citizens.
