Post 58MCA AGM: Chua flip-flops upon Tee Keat
Written by Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle(10-02-11)
MCA boss Chua Soi Lek is possibly feeling a heat or has caught Prime Minister Najib Razak's by right away important "I never pronounced that" disease. At a press discussion after a MCA's 58th annual meeting, Soi Lek went upon jot down job upon his arch rival as well as prototype Ong Tee Keat to resign.
"If we have any integrity as well as we have no conviction in a party, afterwards we should resign," confidant difference from Soi Lek that he would inside of minutes regret uttering as well as flip wave on.
Foolish difference though Soi Lek is not bashful to ask for 'more'
Indeed, he shortly realized that such control was uncivilised of a sitting boss of a MCA, as well as rsther than disloyal to a BN to actually ask one of its MPs to quit. What would BN chief, Najib, contend especially when BN is desperately perplexing to increase as well as not diminution a series of lawmakers it has in Parliament?
And so, a 64-year-old scandal-tainted Soi Lek moved onto his next gaffe. "Resign as well as renounce from a celebration is different," he 'clarified' to a press, insisting that he was additionally not asking Tee Keat to quit as MP.
What afterwards is Tee Keat supposed to renounce from?That Soi Lek is vibrated is to be expected, given that Tee Keat had taken a sledgehammer to him in a days using up to a MCA meeting. Tee Keat, a Pandan MP as well as ex-Transport Minister, had called Soi Lek "irrelevant", observant that it would be mess to field a male with such a severe sex liaison in a 13th ubiquitous election.
But despite having upheld upon his Labis chair to son Tee Yong, Soi Lek is st! ill hung ry. Like Oliver Twist, he wants "more". He is believed to be angling for an MP's chair in Johor in further to Tee Yong's, as he regards his son as having 'proven himself' as well as should be treated with colour as candidate-material in his own right.
Waste of safe seats
However, voices of gainsay inside of a MCA have been growing. Of course, a loudest might be Tee Keat's whom MCA watchers contend is "for sure" not starting to be allocated Pandan. Some even hold that UMNO might offer Tee Keat a state chair in a coming GE-13.
It is obvious to many in a political arena that if a vengeful Soi Lek has his way, there will be zero for Tee Keat during all.
"He wants Tee Keat out completely as well as this is clear in today's comments, whatver U-turn he might try to make. The enmity in in between a dual men is so strong no one can skip it," PKR vice boss Chua Jui Meng told Malaysia Chronicle.
As Jui Meng sees it, it is not unlikely that Soi Lek will get what he wants. "He is right away a MCA boss as well as while relations have been not as well great in in between MCA as well as UMNO, it has not reached a theatre where Najib will cut Soi Lek out from a equation completely," pronounced Jui Meng.
Speculation has swirled that UMNO warlords see both Soi Lek as well as Gerakan boss Koh Tsu Koon as being unable to win in any chair they contested, except for a very safest ones, that they felt was wasted upon dual such seasoned though non-performing veterans.
Pundits pronounced "sure-win seats" were usually given to very talented newcomers with high potential as well as a capability to supplement value to BN. Hardly a outline for possibly Soi Lek or Tsu Koon.
Tee Keat drops strongest hint nonetheless of leaving MCA
Meanwhile, Soi Lek one after another to conflict Tee Keat, accusing him of being a misfortune boss a MCA ever had.
"He had a chance to lead MCA for 17 months as well as that was only after Mar 8 ubiquitous election. He never did anything upon revision or mutation all he did was to retaliate people, to sack people," pronounced Soi Lek.
According to Malaysiakini, Tee Keat's evident response was that he had never used MCA's name when carrying out his duties given Soi Lek came to power.
"Whatever we have done we did with my in front of as Pandan MP. What we have done is not associated to MCA. All my use centre correspondents, we have not used MCA's or BN's name," pronounced Tee Keat.
If true, afterwards his difference have been intensely ominous for a BN. If Tee Keat no longer regards himself as an MCA man, is he moving onto becoming an Independent? He has already thrown his support at a back of Tengku Razaleigh's Amanah, a still-ambiguous self-styled third-force platform.
It is additionally probable that Tee Keat might stick upon a Pakatan Rakyat led by Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim.
Sword hangs over Soi Lek
Whatever Tee Keat's faults, he still enjoys an picture of a crime warrior since of his insistence that a Port Klang Free Zone monetary debacle was done open as much as possible.
In a chosen circles in a MCA, this is might be his 'death' warrant since a investigations eventually led to a prosecution of celebration bigwigs Ling Liong Sik as well as Chan Kong Choy.
But outside of a MCA, his picture is still visibly better than Soi Lek's, who is right away ridiculed not only since of his sex DVD that was viewed by millions upon You Tube though since he is seen as a s! mall gua ranty in UMNO's hand.
Because of a sex DVD, Soi Lek can during any time be prosecuted for unnatural sex that means that whatever fierce rhetoric he might make, UMNO is a one who has him upon a leash. And it is a very reduced one.

Another leader reliable stream UMNO Youth Chief Hishammuddin's intention to fin! d an UMN O clamp president position.
UMNO Youth leaders voiced their support for U.S. Embassy open affairs programming, such as a English language precision assistants, corner cultural activities as good as a International Visitor Program. If PM Abdullah remains in office prolonged enough, a shrewd as good as palpably desirous Khairy might good be means to consolidate! his pol itical in front of as good as become a long-term force in Malaysian politics.

(SBU) The Ambassador hosted a lunch upon Jul eighteen for UMNO Youth leaders, led by UMNO Deputy Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin, a desirous as good as successful advisor to his father-in-law PM Abdullah Badawi. UMNO Youth Secretary Abdul Rahman Dahlan as good as seven alternative Youth leaders accompanied Khairy, whilst A/DCM, polchief, econoff as good as FSN domestic specialist assimilated a Ambassador.
Khairy Highlights FTA Concerns
3. (SBU) Much of a lunch conversation revolved around a proposed U.S.-Malaysia giveaway traffic agreement (FTA). Khairy underscored his oft-publicized concerns about a FTA, in sold per cultivation as good as supervision procurement. He pronounced Malaysian rice farmers remained anxious about a probability of increasing foe from U.S. rice imports.
The Ambassador countered which an FTA was unlikely to make U.S. rice much some-more rival in Malaysia, given Malaysia's welfare for rice varieties not typically grown in a U.S., as good as a single after another strong foe from alternative Asian suppliers. He combined which a U.S. as good as Malaysian cultivation sectors were mostly complementary as good as to illustrate should both good from an FTA.
Responding to Khairy's regard which U.S. sanitary/phytosanitary measures constituted a non-tariff separator which would impede Malaysian agric! ultural exports, a Ambassador positive him which negotiators were working to ensure a harmonization of such measures underneath a FTA to a good of exporters in both countries.
4. (C) Khairy underscored a sold attraction inside of Malaysia upon a inclusion of supervision buying in a FTA. Long-standing welfare policies for racial Malays were a key member of such procurement, as good as a supervision could not accept any try by a U.S. to limit such policies. The Ambassador responded which a oft-repeated assertion which a U.S. intended to find changes or even abolishment of a welfare policies was not true, adding which a U.S! . additionally i ncorporated welfare policies inside of a own federal supervision buying programs which it would find to safety underneath a FTA. He asserted which Malaysia could good substantially from entrance to a significant U.S. supervision buying market which would come with an FTA.
5. (C) Khairy quickly raised a series of alternative concerns about a FTA. He claimed U.S. investors would have a leg up upon Malaysians underneath a FTA in any intensity investment dispute; econoff countered which a FTA would embody brawl settlement supplies which would be identical to those used by a WTO, as good as which were written to be impartial as good as applied infrequently.

The Ambassador speedy Khairy to concentration instead upon a prolonged tenure certain goods to a Malaysian manage to buy from an FTA with a U.S, such as a growth of higher-paying jobs as good as a precision of young Malaysians in a new, higher-value-added industries which were precisely those Malaysia indispensable to ca! pture in a face of flourishing foe from rapidly developing Asian neighbors. While Khairy signaled he remained skeptical, he resolved which he could agree to an FTA "in principle" though insisted which a details of any agreement would be critical.
Grassroots Concerns about Palestine, Middle East
6. (C) Beyond a FTA, Khairy explained which during a UMNO grassroots constituents a single after another to be endangered about events as good as trends in a Middle East, with Palestine as good as Iraq as key issues, along with a War upon Terror as good as U.S policies.
He pronounced he had read a ultimate National Intelligence Estimate repor! t upon Ira q as good as combined a inform contends which Iraq fight has increasing Islamic radicalism, as good as has made a terror hazard around a world worse discordant to U.S. routine objectives. UMNO members hold Malaysia, as OIC Chairman, should fool around a some-more "influential" purpose in a Middle East. Khairy, however, voiced his beating that, "Washington does not appear to cruise as good as take note of Malaysia as a moderate voice."
The Ambassador explained U.S. routine toward Palestine, as good as highlighted a significance of obliged governments assisting countries identical to Afghanistan as good as Iraq to strike their formidable difficulties. He emphasized which as a successful Muslim-majority country, Malaysia could assume an critical purpose in this regard.
UMNO Internal Developments
7. (C) Khairy explained which UMNO Youth leaders are right away involved in a UMNO local meetings which would elect representatives to a annual UMNO ubiquitous open in November. Fortunately, UMNO did not face a same contentious issues as final year, Khairy said, a transparent anxiety to Mahathir's challenge in 2006. In response to a Ambassador's question, Khairy pronounced he believed UMNO would not yield live delive! ry of a 2007 gathering in sequence to equivocate a controversy of final year (when live promote of UMNO's chauvinistic tongue annoyed concerns in between non-Malays). He explained which UMNO as good as a alternative parties had to be seen as aggressively fortifying a interests of their sold racial groups, though during a back of sealed doors "the parties do not speak identical to which to any other."
8. (C) Khairy explained UMNO's internal procedures for selecting inhabitant as good as state-level candidates, describing a routine of negotiate in between UMNO divisions, arch ministers in any state, as good as a Prime Minister/UMNO President who holds a final say. He commented which there would not be much "! horse tr ading over seats" in between UMNO's bloc partners for a coming ubiquitous choosing as all parties would belong to a chair allocations from a 2004 ubiquitous election. He argued which UMNO's concessions to a non-Malay bloc partners, such as nominating a Malaysian Indian Congress party member to run in a Malay majority area, represented commendable inter-ethnic politics, though this went mostly unappreciated by outward observers.
9. (C) Youth secretary Abdul Rahman Dahlan stated which stream UMNO Youth Chief Hishammuddin Tun Hussein would really expected vie for a chair as a single o! f 3 UMNO clamp presidents, to illustrate withdrawal a top in front of in UMNO Youth. Hishammuddin right away is creation a rounds to go during UMNO local meetings to better establish his credentials for a clamp presidential slot.
Interest in Public Affairs Programming
10. (U) The Youth leaders voiced seductiveness in a Embassy's successful English Language Teaching Assistant program in a state of Terengganu, as good as hoped a program could be expanded to alternative states. They additionally valued a U.S. International Visitor Program as good as appreciated which a Em! bassy ha d sent a series of their members to a United States for underneath this mechanism. They removed U.S. Embassy support for a recent! cultura l eventuality as good as hoped for some-more corner cultural activities in a future. The Ambassador speedy tighten contacts in between UMNO Youth as good as Embassy offices, as good as a Youth leaders pronounced they wished to go upon a discourse with U.S. diplomats.
Comment
11. (C) UMNO Youth represents a main organisation in Malaysian politics, as it serves as a springboard for many destiny UMNO leaders as good as acts as a party's many aggressive defender of Malay rights as good as privileges. This was a initial assembly with Khairy since he led a noisy travel proof against Secretary Rice's visit nearly a single year ago.
Khairy's well-publicized antithesis to some US policies notwithstanding, a reality is which a scheduling of this eventuality was delayed by his extended eighth month in a United States this summer (and his wife, a PM's daughter, remained during a back of to take a seminar). There is no subject which this classic son of a cosmopolitan Malay chosen is carefully shaping his domestic profile to bolster his efforts to take over a UMNO Youth leadership, faux travel radicalism included. In this, he follows a well-worn march of alternative desirous young Malay politicians, including Hishammuddin as good as past UMNO Youth President, as good as right away Deputy PM, Najib.
However, Khairy has even larger need to reinforce his travel cred with a Malay grassroots to counter a enmity of many some-more senior UMNO politicians distressing of Khairy's meteoric rise as good as oft-rumored strategy of his father-in-law. In this respect, it was obvious which UMNO Youth officials did not embody Mukhriz Mahathir in their delegation, notwithstanding his in front of as international relations bureau chief, owing to a! adversa ry in between Khairy as good as Mahathir's son. Mukhriz' absence was further evidence which a Mahathir family's domestic strength has waned following a former-PM's failure to overthrow his succe! ssor las t year.
12. (c) Although Khairy undoubtedly owes a speed of his climb mostly to his marriage, a fact remains which he is a single of a many articulate as good as politically shrewd operators of his generation. The Oxford-educated Khairy comes across as decorous as good as well-read, though additionally as sharp-edged as good as unnecessarily acerbic,especially in addressing familiar targets of Malay intellectuals (such as U.S. Middle East policy). At a same time, he often voices admiration about U.S. democracy as good as closely follows U.S. domestic developments (as good as alternative facets of Ame! rican li fe; his many recent newspaper mainstay was a paean to a Apple iPhone he acquired in LA final month). However, during 31, Khairy has yet to acquire a ease, courage as good as domestic polish exuded by stream Youth Chief (and Education Minister) Hishammuddin. If PM Abdullah continues in office for multiform some-more years, as right away appears likely, Khairy might good have sufficient time to connect his position. If so, this palpably desirous young male could be a major cause in Malaysian governing body for decades to come.
13. (C) Not surprisingly, Khairy approaches a FTA with an eye upon a intensity near-term implications to his domestic ambition, rsther than than a some-more unsubstantial long-term benefits which an FTA would bring to Malaysia. His skepticism about a FTA is politically popular, as good as contrasts with a government's sparse as good as rather hapless attempts to promote a FTA (leaving a Embassy in a in front of of having to insist to Malaysians why a FTA will good Malaysia). Although you do not expect Khairy to abandon his open skepticism,! you hol d he will be some-more amenable to standing aside following a subsequent elections as good as you will go upon to pull a views with this successful organisation of UMNO Youth leaders.

Hayati teguran Dr Mahathir Ku Seman Ku Hussain
3 OKT Kecuali kelmarin, belum ada pemimpin besar yang ambil kisah tentang racun yang disebarkan oleh sebahagian besar filem hantu di negara ini.
Kepentingan masyarakat yakni penonton yang terdiri daripada orang Melayu tidak menjadi keutamaan kerana banyak yang menganggap filem hantu telah "memajukan" industri filem negara ini. Bingungnya.
Kalau di luar negara genre filem seram antara karya yang dikagumi, nilai estetika dan pemikirannya tinggi. Tetapi di negara ini filem hantu disekutukan dengan filem-filem buruk dan pemikiran sebahagian besar pembuatnya yang dangkal.
Tetapi kerana filem beracun ini tidak ada nilai politik untuk dipertaruhkan, maka tidak ada yang menegur supaya pembuatan filem ini dinaikkan taraf menjadi karya yang dihormati. Sebaliknya yang menegur adalah kalangan alim ulama. Tetapi sikap bebal sesetengah pembuat filem hantu membuatkan ulama pula menerima kejian.
Mujurlah kelmarin bekas Perdana Menteri Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad dengan penuh tanggungjawab menyelar bahawa filem hantu yang begitu banyak diterbitkan telah meracun pemikiran masyarakat.
Filem ini menyekat perkembangan pemikiran masyarakat, mereka kembali takut kepada hantu lebih daripada mereka takut kepada Tuhan. Dr Mahathir telah menongkah arus ketika pemimpin lain diam dari bersuara kerana dibimbangi menjejaskan kedudukan saham politik. Perihal filem beracun bukan bulletin utama kerana sesetengah menganggap menyokong kegemaran masyarakat lebih penting.
Dr Mahathir mempunyai asas yang kuat untuk menongkah arus menganggap filem hantu meracun pemikiran masyarakat. Ini kerana semasa epoch Dr Mahathir, filem-filem begini tidak ada, laras penapisan filem juga lebih ketat. Tidak ada filem atau drama hantu seperti sekarang disiarkan di televisyen.
Ini tindakan tidak renouned tetapi Dr Mahathir dan bekas Menteri Penerangan, Tan Sri Mohamed Rahmat tetap melaksanakan larangan itu. Maka, orang Melayu perlulah merenung dan menghayati teguran Dr Mahathir dan segera memulaukan filem! -filem h antu yang bertaraf sampah sarap itu.
Kita tidak perlu mengharapkan pembuat filem hantu berubah. Mereka ini jenis oportunis, apa sahaja jenis filem yang digilai ramai mereka akan mengikutnya.
Sekiranya esok ada filem bertemakan dakwah Islam mencatatkan kutipan pecah panggung, pasti mereka juga akan membuat filem jenis yang sama. Kerana itu kita agak kecewa kerana keracunan yang merosakkan pemikiran masyarakat tidak menjadi bulletin utama sesetengah pemimpin.
Sekali lagi mujur Dr Mahathir sanggup ambil tahu tentang kepentingan masyarakat dan menegurnya. Padahal Dr Mahathir boleh saja duduk diam. Tetapi kerana tidak sanggup melihat masyarakat diperbodohkan sedemikian rupa memaksa beliau bersuara. Utusan Malaysia

Books of The Times
Savior of a World, Heal Thyself: Prescription for America's Ailments
By Walter Russel Mead (October 2, 2011)
In "That Used to Be Us" Thomas L. Friedman as well as Michael Mandelbaum stick upon a flourishing series of unfamiliar process thinkers warning which America's in front of abroad cannot endure though a renovation of a made during home sources of American wealth as well as strength.
The concerns have been justified. The United States faces a many profound set of hurdles since a 1930s, when an economic depression as well as a relapse of a British-led general order raised simple questions about our made during home politics as well as general strategy.
"That Used to Be Us" represents an bid by Mr. Mandelbaum, a highbrow during Johns Hopkins University as well as a single of a country's leading open intellectuals, as well as Mr. Friedman, a columnist for The New York Times whose 3 Pulitzer Prizes usually hint during a global change of his work, to report a rocky conditions of a benefaction day as well as allot a way forward.
This may be an American crisis, yet as Mr. Friedman (right) as well as Mr. Mandelbaum eloquently 
explain, it is not just an American concern. Nor is it simply a matter of improving a living standards of future generations in this country. Because of a singular as well as during this indicate irreplaceable American role in providing ! critical open services opposite a globe, a universe as a total will turn a much poorer as well as some-more dangerous place if Americans destroy during a charge of inhabitant renewal.
The authors yield a thoughtful as well as offset visual to critics upon a left who hold which our benefaction economic troubles denote a fundamental failure of a liberal democratic entrepreneur ideas upon which American multitude is built, as well as a critics upon a right who hold which usually a return to 19th-century tiny supervision policies can save us. The principles behind our society, they argue, have been broadly correct, yet though institutional reform we cannot request them as fairly or as entirely as we should.
When it comes to solutions a authors reach for a classic American proceed which during least in my judgment is fundamentally receptive to advice yet formidable to apply. A long tradition of American thinkers as well as statesmen George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Henry Clay, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Dwight D. Eisenhower, to name a integrate of have argued which a clever as well as forward-looking sovereign supervision should foster a full of health made during home economy as well as a clever general presence.
This tradition is mostly called Hamiltonian since of Alexander Hamilton's role in formulating a simple outlines while portion as Washington's Treasury secretary. Mr. Friedman as well as Mr. Mandelbaum's plans for a next theatre in American wealth is radically a reconstruction of this Hamiltonian prophesy of a strong, pro-market inhabitant supervision which creates a many auspicious possible conditions (and provides funds for a infrastructure) to foster in isolation enterprise.
As Mr. Friedman as well as Mr. Mandelbaum(right) note, this Hamiltonian plan cuts opposite a 
conventional knowledge in both domestic parties today. The Republican feeling to many forms of supervision wake up recalls a stances of Hamilton's opponents who argued which a powerful sovereign supervision would attack liberty as well as rubbish taxpayer money. Politicians similar to Representative Ron Paul as well as Gov. Rick Perry of Texas consciously pull upon a anti-Hamiltonian ideas of thinkers similar to Thomas Jefferson to attack a idea of a powerful, economically interventionist sovereign government.
But a authors of this book additionally have uncomfortable difference for Democrats. Hamiltonians historically believed in receptive to advice supervision finance as well as fit administration. This is not a kind of talk which open zone work unions as well as partisans of a entitlement state similar to to hear. "That Used to Be Us" unsparingly describes a causes as well as expected consequences of a recklessly unsustainable grant as well as entitlement promises which have been between a gravest fiscal problems we right away face. It additionally calls for smarter as well as reduction unwieldy forms of regulation, something which business is some-more expected to await than some traditional Democratic constituencies.
These have been vast truths, as well as a authors see them obviously as well as whole. As is usual in Mr. Friedman's work a appetite of a core evidence is buttressed by minute reportage as well as blizzards of specific actuality as well as detail, yet a accumulation of chronicle as well as justification never detracts from a book's executive thrust. "That Used to Be Us" is an critical contribution to an heightening debate, as well as it deserves a widest possible attention. But there have been a integrate of weak spots in a evidence which could make use of shoring up.
One tiny e.g. involves California. On a a single palm a authors take which state to charge for a fiscal irresponsibility, chaotic process making as well as! a in al l disjointed proceed to economic development as well as governance. Yet during pick times they accost California as a model, citing a difficult appetite as well as building a whole codes. Many people disagree which those appetite regulations contribute to a gridlock which is driving California's economy down. "That Used to Be Us" would benefaction a stronger evidence if it addressed problems similar to this some-more directly.
More broadly, a authors introduce an radically Hamiltonian proceed to a country's hurdles yet do not unequivocally take upon a arguments which Jeffersonian critics make in response. For example, can subsidies as well as incentives unequivocally work when a technological uncertainties have been so vast as well as domestic lobbies so powerful?
The authors indicate to Chinese high-speed rail development as well as American supervision await for pick appetite era as highly effective, yet brand new rail mishaps in China as well as a Solyndra bankruptcy here render these solutions some-more problematic. (Daniel Yergin's brand new book, "The Quest," additionally raises critical questions about a worth of pick appetite subsidies.) And what of a way lobbyists as well as in isolation interests twisted Fannie Mae mortgage programs in ways which worsened a housing bubble? Even well-intentioned sovereign interventions mostly go awry.
Partly since small-government advocates have been denigrated rsther than than engaged, many conservative thinkers will look during this book as some-more liberal sludge calls for greater sovereign spending, difficult appetite process to sentinel off climate change, some-more carry out over American life by credentialed "experts" as well as dismiss "That Used to Be Us" as same-old, same-old boilerplate from a Eastern establishment.
That would be a mistake. The gaps opening between a arguments in this book as well as conventional Democratic politics run really deep. When articulate about a informative sources of American strength Mr. Fri! edman as well as Mr. Mandelbaum can receptive to advice similar to fixed Tea Party members. When pointing to an establishment where American values have been still strong, they choose a military. They contend a United States has been an well-developed nation, as well as they want it to remain one.
As American politics looks increasingly dysfunctional, Mr. Friedman as well as Mr. Mandelbaum show good courage in cast of characters in reserve conventional assumptions. Few readers will determine with every regard as well as evidence in this thoroughly researched as well as passionately argued book, yet all of them should find "That Used to Be Us" compelling, engaging as well as enlightening.
Walter Russell Mead is a James Clarke Chace highbrow of unfamiliar process as well as humanities during Bard College as well as editor during vast of The American Interest.

For MCA, wooing young voters biggest hurdle for polls
OCT 3 At 62, a MCA's greatest hurdle is to find aptitude in between a brand brand new generation of electorate ahead of a subsequent ubiquitous choosing during large approaching subsequent year.
Despite all a excitement as good as burning speeches made by a MCA's tip echelon yesterday during a party's 58th ubiquitous public upon how it is behind upon track as good as all geared for inhabitant polls, a subject of how it skeleton to target immature Chinese electorate stays sketchy.
With a ubiquitous choosing expected to be called as early as January, analysts contend immature electorate could make a outcome rarely unpredictable.
Equities investigate organisation Nomura pronounced in a inform released in Jul that a series of brand brand new electorate could reach 9.43 million an estimated enlarge of 3.2 million brand brand new electorate by a initial entertain of 2013 total with 2.58 million purebred electorate who did not spin up during a 2008 elections.
Barisan Nasional's (BN) domain of victory over Pakatan Rakyat (PR) in Election 2008 was by a small 384,688 votes.
The MCA is banking upon Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's reform skeleton as good as an all-out conflict upon PR over a contentious hudud law debate to win over fence-sitters.
The MCA is hoping that by playing a cards right ancillary a dissolution of a Internal Security Act as good as a examination of a Printing Presses as good as Publications Act (PPPA) as good as Universities as good as University Colleges Act (UUCA) it can daub into a pool of electorate in all drawn to a federal opposition.
Party boss Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek (picture) even went out of his proceed yesterday as good as called for a "New Deal" for a im! mature a s good as destiny generations of Malaysians. He pronounced a supervision indispensable to reach out to alienated youths as good as desert long-held policies that no longer simulate a aspirations of a people.
"The younger generation wish room to express their freedom, they wish a democratic space," MCA Youth chief Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong pronounced dual days ago during a celebration Youth wing's annual ubiquitous assembly.
But a MCA has to deal with a bulk of immature electorate who no longer identify or join forces with themselves with race-based parties. This brand brand new call of electorate is often endangered with day-to-day issues that go beyond competition poverty, taking flight living costs as good as personal freedom.
Former MCA boss Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat has pronounced his celebration is quick apropos not pertinent since it had yet to exercise reforms after pang a misfortune electoral defeat in 2008.
"Yes, I agree. Young electorate do not relate to competition anymore," MCA emissary boss Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai told The Malaysian Insider final night after a party's AGM ended.
Asked how would a MCA capture such electorate as it is still radically a race-based party, Liow said: "Even though you have been a Chinese party, you never use competition issues to gain support, you have a multiracial approach."
In a same talk a MCA leader pronounced a MCA would regularly sojourn applicable since it is a celebration that "belongs to a Chinese."
"The celebration has a prolonged history, you stick by thick as good as skinny with a Chinese community," he said.
Which brings a MCA behind to block one finding usual belligerent with immature electorate as good as progressing an ethno-centric proceed to policies as good as governance.
The celebration sailed by a Election 2004, only to limp home with 15 seats out of 40 it ran in a 222-seat Dewan Rakyat in 2008 as good as 32 out of 90 states seats, barely scraping 30 per cent of a Chinese v! otes, ac cording to analysts.
As of Jul final year, PR was heading a voter registration drive, signing up twice a series of electorate compared with BN in a initial half of 2010.
The DAP was heading a fray, registering 32.5 per cent of 169,838 electorate purebred in between January as good as Jun final year.
"We have to rivet more with immature voters, you know a engagement with a immature is not as good as a opposition. We have been not there yet. We have to work hard," pronounced Liow.
Realisation is good, though for a MCA, a clock is ticking, as good as time is not a oppulance a celebration can means to have.

Umno's use of Guan Eng to defend Johor raises questions about the crime rate
The ferocity as well as enthusiasm with which UMNO parliamentarians came out to chastise DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng over his alleged remarks connected with Johor's safety is similar to those shown to PAS emissary president Mat Sabu over his comments connected with Bukit Kepong.
There have been no genuine contribution to clear a attacks done around a main-stream media nor through a government-controlled newspapers. What was many expected a verbal matter by an antithesis leader has now been spun to mean alternative things in reserve from what it unequivocally was.
Even so, it has expel a spotlight upon what is unequivocally a stream state of crime rate in Malaysia, not just Johor. How loyal have been a government's gushings which things have been underneath carry out as well as a rate is upon a motionless downtrend?
When crime census data have been classified...
Early this year, Bukit Aman denied NGO Women's Aid Organisation (WAO) entrance to a 2010 Crime Statistics booklet rebuilt by its Sexual Crimes as well as Child Abuse division. "We requested for it upon March 3, but got a reply which they cannot recover these census data as they have been personal as confidential," said Ivy Josiah, WAO executive director. "Why should census data upon sexual crimes as well as crimes opposite children be 'confidential'? Isn't a ask a basic one?"
This is indeed strange, because have been Crime Statistics deemed confidential? Why have been official figures kept away from a open eye? Crime Statistics have been compiled by a military as well as by right up till 2005-2006, these c! ensus da ta were available until they mysteriously left from open view. Now, a 2010 Crime Statistics has even been classified.
So can it unequivocally be untrue which crime rates have been tall generally in states like Johor which sees complicated trade of abounding Singaporeans upon daily shopping excursions? With so small transparency, can Malaysians be blamed for jealous a government's word which a crime rate is actually falling?
Double standards
As for Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin's deduction which Guan Eng longed for to shock away Singaporean investors from investing in Johor, how current is this or is it mere politicising? Yet, throwing good clarity to a wind, a mainstream media spun his difference as a gospel law as well as a prime argument to lash out at Guan Eng.
But did Guan Eng unequivocally meant to shock away Singaporeans from investing in Johor by observant which a place was "not safe"? Would investors be so simply scared? Or was Guan Eng injecting a little black amusement into what is really expected as well as really sadly, a black truth?
And if Guan Eng is to be pinned down for his Johor comment, what about a a single done by a head of a hawkers association, Abdullah Md Yusuf. Abdullah said which given Penang was taken over as well as governed by a DAP, a Malays have been victimised as well as not treated with colour fairly as compared with a alternative groups. Why is Abdullah allowed to get away with such a inspiring as well as racist-t! inged st atement? Others have been charged for Sedition as well as jailed underneath a Internal Security Act for stating less.
Smear debate like Mat Sabu's
If UMNO is all out to infer which Johor is indeed safe, afterwards because not have a military recover a crime census data state by state to a public. Guan Eng would afterwards have to urge himself by releasing all a various census data to infer what he says is loyal - which a Malay businesses hav! e been n ot victimised in Penang as well as in fact far improved off than when Gerakan was in charge. Isn't fairer as well as more constructive for a people?
At a end of a day, it is all a game o! f percep tion as well as a goal is to set up a picture which all things non-UMNO is bad.
Johor is a UMNO heart-land as well as a DPM is himself a Johorean, thus it seems wise to play a 'Malay patriot' defending his home state. Whether or not Johoreans have been naive sufficient to hold as well as opinion for him out of hero-worship stays to be seen. But this certainly has all a signs of a allegation debate to kickstart a GE-13 as well as in loyal UMNO fashion, it is meant to ignite a glow of loathing opposite Pakatan.
The battle for Johor heats up
And this will be a pattern taken by BN as well as UMNO in a run-up to GE13. Starv! ed of re al issues to present prior to a people because they have shirked endeavour genuine reforms, BN will play up each as well as every cheep from a Pakatan leaders. Facts as well as figures will be tossed in reserve as well as hidden, whilst mere opinions from pro-UMNO people will be played up to a max.
The worse is yet to come as UMNO scrambles to win over a Malay vote. UMNO needs to turn 5% of a Malay opinion back into its foster in sequence for BN to benefit two-thirds of a 222 seats in Parliament. And to get ahead this 5% swing, they will resort to every trick in a book, dispatch honour as well as truth. Indeed, a battle has started to win a hearts as well as minds of a Malay heart-land.

Oh yeah?

You have indifferent your sheet to hell, who do we consider we are. You insist to be a Muslim though we have been munafik of a misfortune degree
The three comments upon top of appeared below a article 'No hudud please, we're Malaysians', which was combined by Zainah Anwar as good as published in The Star. we picked them up to speak about them currently! because , first of all, a single of a comments additionally mentioned me and, secondly, since they appear to be comments by people 'knowledgeable' about theism as good as about what God wants.
Okay, so let's speak about theism then!
God is eternal. God is omnipotent. God is omniscient. The theists (which would embody Muslims) hold which these have been though only a little of a attributes of God.
This equates to God has no commencement as good as no end. God is not tranquil by His power, though has complete control over it. God knows all things, which can be known, past, present, as good as future.
These have been amongst a many attributes of God, which all theists whether they have been Jews, Christians or Muslims determine upon (who says which a Jews, Christians as good as Muslims can't come to an agreement?).
Theists additionally hold which in a commencement God combined a entire universe, with us humans in it. And theists hold which all this will come to an finish a single day -- a finish of time or a! khirat (akhir definition a end).
Going by this belief, which equates to God additionally combined time. Time exists since God combined a commencement as good as a end. If there were no commencement as good as no finish afterwards time would not exist.
Now, God is not subjected to His creations. In fact, a reverse is true. His creations have been theme to God. God has comprehensive energy as good as control over His creations. And this would, of course, meant time as well.
Going by this idea it would make sense since God is eternal. There is a commencement as good as an finish for a entire universe. But there is no commencement as good as no finish for God. We live as good as we die. God does not live as good as die. God is eternal.
Okay, so if God is almighty as good as there is no commencement as good as no finish for God, as good as if God is not subjected to His creation, in this box time, where does God exist then? Does God exist insi! de of or outside time?
If God exists inside of time, which is His creation, afterwards this equates to He is subjected to His creation, which is time. If God is not subjected to His creation, which is time, afterwards God certainly has to exist outside time. That equates to time does not exist for God. It only exists for us. That is why we live as good as we die. We have a commencement as good as we have an end. There is no commencement ! as good as no e nd for God. God does not die. God is eternal.
In which case, since time does not unequivocally exist, where do we humans exist then? We existed in a past (yesterday). We exist in a benefaction (today). And we might exist in a destiny if we do not die tonight (tomorrow). But God did not exist yesterday (because there is no time for God). God will not exist tomorrow (for a same reason). God only exists currently (ever present).
This equates to which yesterday as good as tomorrow do not exist. What exists is only today. In fact, even currently does not exist since currently would be twenty-four hours as good as twenty-four hours is additionally time. So even currently does not exist. What does exist is only a single single indicate in time.
If there is no such thing as time though we feel we have been vital in time (we have a commencement as good as we have an end) which equates to what we feel is merely an illusion. Time does not exist so therefore we additionally do not exist in time. We exist in only a single indicate in time, not throughout time.
Can Somali, apai70 as good as Burhan Deen, a all-knowing who know exactly what God wants, afterwards greatfully insist our existence? We consider we exist in time though time does not exist. We consider we were innate a little time in a past as good as will die a little time in a destiny as good as will travel throu! gh time from commencement to finish though there is no past as good as no future. So, if time does not exist, afterwards greatfully insist where we have b! een now.
Once Somali, apai70 and Burhan Deen insist this to us we can afterwards go upon to a next level, discuss what God wants.
Over to we Somali, apai70 as good as Burhan Deen.

OCT 2 Utusan Malaysia, The Star, News Sraits Times as good as other promotion papers.
Today I done a gigantic mistake of reading which MCA-owned ragsheet, The Star.
Under a fake of caring about a future of Malaysia, they went upon as good as upon about hudud laws, trying to frighten Malaysians about PAS as good as Pakatan Rakyat.
But there was nothing in a paper about a burglary of local land in Sarawak, about crime in a country as good as abuse of energy by Barisan Nasional politicians, including those from a MCA.
It is a same with Utusan Malaysia.
First they indicted Lim Guan Eng of defaming Johor in an talk with a air wave station in Australia.
When he showed them a twin of a interview, they indicted him of adverse Johor during a talk in Singapore.
Lim apologised though Utusan as good as a slavish mainstream media never pronounced sorry for starting upon a witch-hunt opposite him as good as getting it wrong about a talk in Australia.
And Utusan has a cheek to question a credit of a DAP politician.
This, from a newsletter which has prolonged lost a disproportion in between contribution as good as fiction.
The Star as good as NST have been not as good distant behind.
The thing is this: These publications exist to serve a interests of a domestic parties which own them.
They have no goal of creation Malaysia a improved country.
Their raison d'tre is for their domestic masters to remain in energy so which they can additionally divert a gravy train.
*************************
I find it comical which there is a debate ensuing upon either MCA is relevant.
I consider MCA, Gerakan as good as MIC have been a equivalent of fixers or middlemen.
By themselves, they h! ave been powerless. But they have a living by leveraging upon their connections to get things done.
So upon his own, Dr Chua Soi Lek is just another Chinese politician.
He is infrequently utilitarian when Nazri Aziz or Hishammuddin Hussein give him a time of day.
He as good as his party have been not reputable by Umno or a civil service.
If they vanish from a landscape, my hold up as good as yours will not be affected really much.
Truth be told, even in 2004, they did good in a polls usually since there was such a strong feel good factor about Abdullah Badawi.
The usually people who will be sad to see a back of MCA have been a MCA office bearers as good as a people at The Star.
