Sarawak DAP reveals ECs biasness
Sarawak DAP says it 'abhors a thought which a electoral complement as practised right away is perfect as well as over reproach'.
KUCHING: Sarawak DAP, in supporting Bersih 2.0s eight-point direct for electoral reforms, has revealed a unfairness of a Election Commission (EC) in its description exercise.
We have clear imbalance in illustration since of astray subdivision delineation, state chairman Wong Ho Leng pronounced in a stipulation to symbol a Walk for Democracy convene in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.
Some state constituencies have been four to 5 times bigger than others, as well as a little parliamentary constituencies have been some-more than 10 times bigger than others.
For example, in a Sarawak state election, BaKelalan has 6,958 electorate compared with Pending which has 29,488 voters.
The Barisan Nasional won 25 seats with fewer than 10,000 electorate in any constituency.
Compare this with a 10 seats won by a DAP with electorate exceeding 20,000 each.
Because of this disproportionate weightage in a votes, a BN cumulative 55% of a renouned votes in a state choosing but won 77.5% of a seats.
At parliamentary level, Putrajaya has 8,840 voters, whereas Kapar has 122,011 electorate (13 times which of Putrajaya).
In 2008 ubiquitous election, Pakatan Rakyat won all 5 constituencies which had some-more than 100,000 electorate each.
There have been 8 constituencies with fewer than 20,000 voters, all won by a BN. A distorted as well as unbalanced weightage equates to astray representation.
Wong pronounced a EC had no enforcement as well as prosecutorial powers as well as was right away increasingly apropos a spokesman of a BN.
It has no energy to make choosing laws as well as is not equates to to safeguard giveaway as well as fair elec! tions, he said, adding out which a supervision machinery should not be abused to lean choosing results.
Tainted electoral system
Wong read out a stipulation at a press discussion following Sarawak DAPs solidarity breakfast with a open in Stutong near here yesterday morning.
With him were all 12 DAP representative who defied police order as well as wore yellow T-shirts which gimlet a partys aphorism Ubah (change).
The issue of astray description was one of multiform points stated in a declaration.
Other points raised enclosed rampant vote-buying, indelible ink, repressive media laws, phantom voters, postal votes as well as longer choosing campaign.
Wong, who is also a Bukit Assek representative as well as Sibu MP, pronounced for loyal democracy to bloom, there contingency be equal as well as not disproportionate illustration in a country.
He pronounced a stream first to pass a post electoral complement was sinister by electoral fraud.
We have seen a BN supervision handing out projects prior to as well as during choosing times in order to surprise electorate as well as fish for their votes.
The prime apportion set a most obnoxious e.g. of opinion fishing by his you assistance me, you assistance you tongue at Rejang Park on a night before of a Sibu by-election, he said.
The stipulation fully upheld Bersihs call for electoral reforms.
Against these flaws in a electoral system, you join Malaysians to direct electoral reforms. It is each adults right to see which elections have been giveaway as well as fair.
We hold which a inherent right of leisure of public as well as leisure of expression contingency be upheld by a government, for a loyal democracy entails a supervision of a people, by a people, for a people.
It ensures which a people have been a masters of a country.
We direct which all bona fide final for electoral reforms contingency be taken cognizance of as well as not brushed aside as fanciful tricks t! o disint egrate a government.
We detest a thought which a electoral complement as practised right away is perfect as well as over reproach.
We titillate a supervision to delight a goodwill of a 62 NGOs (fo! rming Be rsih) which have demanded electoral reforms through peaceful means.
We hold such direct is for a betterment of a country, he said, adding which there should be no procrastination, for electoral remodel is critical to propel a nation brazen to apropos a better as well as some-more vibrant democracy.

Marina Mahathirs Bersih experience
By Marina Mahathir
There have been many stories as well as photos, both great as well as bad, of a total event. But to me what was many important was which Malaysians proved two things: one, they can assemble together upon a common means peacefully as well as two, thus showed which they have been a mature people. The fact is which there were all kinds of people there, immature as well as old, all races as well as religions as well as all classes as well as creeds. we bumped in to many immature people, a children of my friends, who had come to see what it was all about as well as decide for themselves what to think about a issue.
Do these people look like hooligans to you?
Whatever a single thinks about a emanate which Bersih is espousing, we should all be proud of our associate Malaysians who did not, despite apocalyptic predictions by some, handle like hooligans as well as destroy property as well as harm a single another. There were people harm as well as a single genocide though people who had participated in a rally did not means them. The restaurants as well as shops around a area were you do roaring commercial operation as people got thirsty as well as hungry.
There have been also a little people claiming which a world now has a bad sense of Malaysia since a unfamiliar media (and a local media for which matter) reported only about a teargassing as well as water-cannoning. we think people have been confusing a supervision with a people. Yes, a world now has a bad sense of a Malaysian supervision since it has handled this total emanate so badly. They dont have a same sense of a Malaysians who stood up for their rights as well as their cause.
And by a way, we cant believe a little of a meant things being said about a man who died after being teargassed! My goodness, each time we review all uncompassionate things like that, we know which Im upon a right! side.

Major Defeat For Barisan Nasionals War For The Hearts And Minds of Malaysians
By Matthias Chang
Barisan Nasionals War of Intimidation has backfired. Malaysians no longer fright a sight of armed confidence forces, a threat of secular riots as good as or a Communist bogey. Pictures of a pacific integrity as good as finalise of a Bersih demonstrators say it all. Objective Malaysians (the silent majority) cannot though be tender with a infancy as good as faith of those who were peaceful to face detain as good as police danger to defend their principles.
Yes, Malaysia is not Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen etc. though there is a usual thread a peoples frustrations (real or otherwise) as good as a need for expressing their displeasure cannot be suppressed. The audacity of energy is no match for grass-root activism.
It is indeed ironic which a 1Malaysia slogan of a Prime Minister (a united multi- secular Malaysia) was reflected some-more in a ranks of a Bersih 2.0 debate upon 9th July 2011 than in a ranks of domestic opportunist as good as upstart Khairy Jamaluddins miniscule band of Red Shirts provocateurs. Perkasa as likely had no mass following as good as was all absent in annoy of its provocative bravado.
I have been informed which a little of a Prime Min! isters c lose advisers upon plan have been supposed experts upon Blue Ocean Strategy, a essence of which is to make a competition not pertinent as good as creating uncontested market place.
After a fiasco upon 9th July 2011, might we indicate to a Prime Minister as good as theentire Barisan Nasional leadership which their initial priority is to dump these domestic wannabes who have been all abandoned of any knowledge as good as knowledge of a domestic realities upon a ground.
The domestic competition of a Opposition has become some-more applicable than ever as good as has prisoner as good as assigned some-more effectively physically as good as mentally both a uncontested as good as contested domestic market place. The BN supervision has spent RM billions, though has yet to uncover petrify formula upon a ground, during a grass-roots level. If these assholes cannot even handle a elementary issue of a public demonstration, as good as a Prime Minister as good as a finish BN leadership still demand upon relying upon this bunch of juvenile domestic wannabes, afterwards there is though a single conclusion Barisan Nasional will humour a vital reversal in a entrance General Election.
And if a choosing is hold this year, we am peaceful to put my reputation upon a line as a former domestic secretary to a fourth Prime Minister, which Barisan Nasional will never be able to reclaim a 2/3rd infancy in Parliament as good as a 4 state governments tranquil by a Opposition coalition.
The Prime Minister will be ousted inside of six months from date of a election.
All these supposed advisers as good as domestic pundits can do a improved use to a nation if they just outlay 24/7 for an finish month, watching a Chinese chronological epic The Three Kingdoms upon sale in any DVD emporium in Malaysia. They might just be able to sense a little basic lessons upon Political Strategy 101.
My second recommendation to a Prime Minister is to send his cousin, a Home Minister to be psycho-analysed for Enlarged Ego! Syndrom e (EES) as good as to revamp a finish comparison supervision of a inhabitant confidence apparatus of a Polis Diraja Malaysia (the Royal Malaysian Police Force).
My third recommendation to a Prime Minister is to place in cold storage, a not pertinent UMNO Youth leader. If we do that, we would have to a certain extent practical a Blue Ocean Strategy. Your biggest problem as good as plea is internal, inside of a ranks of your party UMNO domestic warlords, not a Opposition parties.
These UMNO leaders have been intellectually broke as good as politically outdated.
What lessons can we pull from todays event? To pull any conclusions as good as sense from a experience, we have to residence a following questions:
Firstly, because did a supposed Blue Ocean Strategy experts destroy to expect a repeat of Bersih 2007 as good as take pre-emptive measures?
Secondly, because did a inhabitant confidence apparatus destroy to expect Bersih 2.0? When were a Prime Minister as good as a cabinet briefed upon a Bersih 2.0 demonstration?
Thirdly, because did a Barisan Nasional supervision concede a Perkasa provocateurs to hijack a stage to mount their ill-conceived fascist-like greeting to Bersih, followed by a juvenile UMNO Youths belated bravado?
Fourthly, because did a Prime Minister, after agreeing to concede Bersih to rally in a stadium, not follow by with which advanced preference by directing a police to grant a applicable permits, though flip-flopped as good as allowed a confidence apparatus to take finish charge?
Fifthly, what made a Barisan Nasional promotion machine think which by locking down a finish city given Friday evening, there will be a blowback anger as good as antithesis by a grass-roots opposite a organisers of a Bersih 2.0 demonstration, as good as not opposite Barisan Nasional for their high-handed action?
Sixthly, was there any analysis which by taking a sledge-hammer proceed to Bersih 2.0 proof for fair as good as clean elections, a Barisan Nas! ional su pervision will be able to keep its supporters as good as gain brand new adherents or upon a discordant piss off its very own supporters as good as divide serve a 40% uncertain voters?
Finally, what were a identified strategic objectives to be gained by taking advantage of a sledge-hammer proceed as good as how would they raise a formula in foster of a Barisan Nasional supervision in a entrance General Election?
I am extraordinary to know from a Blue Ocean Strategists, a Political Secretaries, a Special Officers as good as a highly paid consultants what Strategic Briefs/Memoranda which they have submitted to a Prime Minister as good as a Barisan Nasional leadership.
The rakyat has a right to know as well. It is arrogance, tallness of irresponsibility as good as a desertion of duty if no detail briefs were rebuilt as good as submitted for consideration.
It is my determination which it will take a smallest of ten months during a smallest to correct a repairs finished to a image of a Barisan Nasional in general as good as a prime apportion in particular, supposing there is a awake plan to residence as good as finalise a issues which have been close to a hearts as good as minds of a grass-roots as good as a worldly urban middle-class electorate (young as good as old). The executive machine is a giant bureaucracy a super oil tanker. From tip down, over 95 percent of a manpower is project-orientated, in plain BN language, money-orientated whats in it for me mentality. Everyone is eyeing a multi- billion dollar cake, a multi-billion dollar clientele gravy train.
But all which is required is starting back to basics.

To Putrajaya: Was it worth it?
From Bersih, Najib emerges a lonely loser: Even Hisham dumps him
Back to the wall, embattled Prime Minister Najib Razak fought back yet judging from the tired rhetoric as well as an unexcited audience, the essay is upon the wall for him. Not usually is his deputy Muhyiddin Yassin actively courting warlords within their UMNO party to join forces as well as oust him, his own cousin Hishammuddin Hussein maight be switching camps.
"Within the Malay community, this time for the Bersih episode, many have been indicating the finger during Hisham. In the past, you tend to pass it off as Hisham playing the bad man to Najib's good guy. After all they have been close cousins yet this round, there have been too many discrepancies," PAS MP for Kuala Selangor Dzulkefly Ahmad told Malaysia Chronicle.
"Many of the UMNO people see Hisham as following the Muhyiddin lead upon this issue. Most hold Najib wanted to follow the King, yet the ultras won the day as well as even his cousin was station upon their side."
UMNO the party will face repercussions
Dzulkefly additionally said the Bersih would leave the low stroke upon UMNO, as well as not usually Najib personally. Because many Malays still hold low respect for the Agung, who in this instance had issued what the village had regarded as the really correct as well as balanced statement, they would blame UMNO for disrespecting the King.
Some of the questionmarks per Hisham's controversial decisions in the Bersih runup include, because didn't he immediately seize the event to back Najib by fortifying the anathema upon the Jul 9 rally. Also, because didn't he rein in the Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar,! who is his hand-picked inheritor to previous top cop Musa Hassan?
"Even after! the ral ly was over, the initial thing Hisham did was to accuse Bersih of not obeying the King. We all know the a single who didn't conform the King is not Bersih yet the Najib administration, so what is Hisham trying to do - poke glow for Najib?" asked Dzulkefly.
In the singular move, the King had attempted an 11th hour conciliation in in between the Najib administration department department as well as the Bersih supporters. The Ruler suggested Bersih to sacrifice their travel protest as well as concede with Najib. Bersih afterwards accepted the PM's offer of the track rally, yet the really subsequent day Najib reneged upon his word, using as an forgive the Bersih's preference of the Stadium Merdeka.
Najib afterwards refused to concede any serve even yet it was forked to him which he was upon purpose disobeying the King's advice.
Power equation
UMNO is separate in to multiform factions, led by the families of three former budding ministers. Najib's father was the second premier, the late Abdul Razak, as well as Hisham's dad the third premier, the late Hussein Onn. Fourth budding apportion Mahathir Mohamad heads the third family. Eyeing the place in the queue is Khairy Jamaluddin, the son-in-law of 5th budding apportion Abdullah Badawi.
Muhyiddin, the DPM as well as additionally UMNO No. 2, is considered the chair warmer for Mahathir's son Mukhriz. Together they carry out the right-wing or the ultras in UMNO.
Both Najib as well as Hisham have tried to pierce their party out from the racial roots. But any time, they were forced to surrender to Mahathir.
"For sure, the energy equation is becoming different right away in UMNO. we too am surprised during the ultimate development with Hisham starting it alone rsther than than adhering with Najib. Perhaps, he has to consider his own destiny rsther than than cling to onto the sinking ship," said Dzulkefly.
!Blind as well as deaf
Meanwhile, Najib closed an eye to the outrageous crowds which thronged the streets of Kuala Lumpur upon Saturday. He went out of his way to emphasize which the convene for free as well as satisfactory elections was unimportant as well as th! e work o f usually the small organisation of troublemakers led by his arch rivel Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim..
He insisted which "not even 10,000" people took partial nonetheless the Bersih's own guess was 100,000 as well as the military had arrested 1,667 people upon Saturday. Ignoring the logic of his statistics, the 58-year PM clung to his view.
He insisted which if he had authorised UMNO members to take part, they would have outnumbered the Bersih supporters. Yet, UMNO Youth - which took partial - could usually summon 500 supporters while ultra rights organisation Perkasa netted in in between 0 as well as twenty supporters in their Titiwangsa 'rally'.
But many revelation was the headlines which UMNO report apportion Ahmad Maslan was organising the nationwide debate to bolster await for Najib, most in the same way as Mahathir loyalists had finished for him he sacked as well as locked up Anwar in 1998.
Today, the day after the Bersih convene was praised by general activists as well as drew sister-rallies in Hong Kong, Sydney, Melbourne, London as well as Singapore, Najib insisted which he knew best.
Umno is not afraid of satisfactory elections. We will uncover which Umno is the most appropriate in the universe ... Long live Umno! Long live Barisan Nasional! 1 Malaysia! Najib told the throng of 6,000 consisting mostly of member from UMNO as well as Silat Lincah upon Sunday.

What did we achieve yesterday?
And united, as fellow-Malaysians, you took to a streets in a single voice to oppose what you cruise a hurtful government. And you took to a streets not to do violence. We took to a streets as a demonstration of peace. Thats what you gained yesterday.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
I got up early today. you longed for to get a conduct start as well as write something before you strike a road. Thats since at noon today, GMT, you will be at Julian Assanges residence to celebrate his 40th birthday as well as his home is a some-more than four-hour drive from Manchester. you will probably have to nap in London as well as come home tomorrow.
But before you proposed writing you suspicion you would initial have a look at a video below as well as you starting crying (old group of 61 similar to me get very romantic when you have been nearer to a graves).
The supervision says which BERSIH was a failure. Some commentaries even pronounced it is a lose-lose situation. No a single won yesterday, they said.
I dont know what they meant by win as well as lose. How do you translate win as well as lose? you suppose each chairman has his or her own approach of seeking at things. That would be their interpretation, of course.
I dont know what you have been ostensible to have lost. But what you did win was which Malaysians all over a world, in particular in Malaysia, came together as one. That is what you won.
Yesterday, you were not abounding group or poor. We were not Malays or non-Malays. We were not Muslims or non-Muslims. We were only fellow-Malaysians.
And united, as fellow-Malaysians, you took to a streets in a single voice to oppose what you cruise a hurtful government. And you took to a streets not to do violence. We took to a streets as a demonstration of peace.
Thats ! what you gained yesterday. All a rabble rousing as well as a enemies of Islam as well as enemies of Malays propaganda as well as tongue failed. ! Malaysia ns did not buy these lies as well as spins of a government. And yesterday was explanation of that.
I dont know in what approach you unsuccessful yesterday. Was it since you did not get a throng of 300,000? Was it since a single male died as well as some-more than 1,000 were arrested? Was it since many got beaten up as well as injured? Was it since you unsuccessful to benefaction a 8-point chit to His Majesty a Agong? Was it since even if you did get to benefaction a 8-point chit to His Majesty there would be no electoral reforms anyway?
I dont know what a disaster is ostensible to have been. But amongst all those supposed failures you met with a single vital success which overrides all those failures -- in a eventuality you still see yesterday as a failure. And which vital success is there were no Malays, Chinese, Indians, lain-lain, Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, agnostics or whatever upon a streets yesterday. For those couple of hours you were all fellow-Malaysians.
That was what you succeeded in doing yesterday. And which is value all a tea in China.
