Note: we was during Tan Sri Ramon Navaratnam's chateau in Lorong Mediang, Pantai Hills with my wife Dr Kamsiah this afternoon. It was Tan Sri's Xmas Open House. We met a little great friends like Tan Sri Aziz Taha as well as Puan Sri Asiah, Tan Sri Jeffery Cheah of Sunway Group, Olympian as well as Flying DoctorTan Sri Dr Mani Jegathesan as well as Puan Sri, Tan Sri Sheriff Kassim, former Malaysian Ambassador to a Kingdom of Cambodia, Dato Deva Ridzam, as well as others. Kee Thuan Chye, Dr. M. Shanmughalingam, R. Nadeswaran aka Citizen Nades as well as Dr. Gananthurai, Public Finance Advisor to a Cambodian Ministry of Economy as well as Finance were additionally during a Open House.
It was a medium function, though a food was good. Tan Sri Ramon as well as Puan Sri were superb hosts. It is normal to speak politics, education as well as socio-economic issues when we have been collected during a Ramon chateau each year. No a single was, however, rebuilt to have a prophecy about a result of GE-13, though a consensus seemed to be that GE-13 would be a branch indicate in a country's history. It would be a tighten race, though many of us felt that irrespective of that coalition won, Malaysia should have a two celebration democracy to yield checks as well as balances in a complement of governance.A strong mandate would be necessary for in effect great governance though not a 2/3rd majority.
This is not a view of Dato Ariff Sabri of DAP whose article patrician The End of Days for UMNO (posted below) was alluded to during a single of a tables. He thinks UMNO is "a vanishing party". Din Merican
The End of Days for UMNO
by Dato Mohd Ariff Sabri (12-23-12)
I have to repeat a little of a! issues as well as themes that we have done in a past. Most Malays have been during a stage where issues such as corruption, abuse of power, a rottenness of a complement that UMNO upholds underline reduction in significance than a major emanate will Malays be all right?
They know a supervision is bad, deceitful, incompetent, as well as dishonest though rationalize it any way by saying, if others take over, they will do a same. No, it will never be a same, since final time UMNO did all a bad thingsevils when people have been reduction empowered. Any supervision deviate from a straight trail right away will be neutralized by an empowered citizenry. That is why UMNO is finding it tough to consequence legitimacy during a moment.
So, it does what rogues do take retreat behind xenophobic as well as biased worldviews. Suddenly, once again, everything seems to be totalled in conditions of them doing something to us. Chinese taking over a supervision from us Malays; Chinese dominating a manage to buy as well as marginalizing us that is in actuality a order of things since UMNO ruled this country. Non-Malays taking over this nation as well as establishing a new national sacrament replacing Islam; non-Malays especially Chinese taking over as well as kicking out a Malay rulers.
Even a prepared ones tumble chase to a xenophobic fears created by a parasitic rope of people, focussed upon staying in energy during all costs. Why? Because if they lose, it will a end of days for them hold up as they know it a hold up founded upon corruption, dishonesty as well as leeching upon a majority, will end.
Of march a issues that start all of us have been additionally important, though to Malays right now, zero is some-more critical than worrying about their survival as well as of things dear to t! hem such as race, religion, as well as a rulers (occupying a really distant third).
It is a sign of strident mental subjugation as well as subservience of a spirit, if after 55 years of independence, Malays have been frightened in to believing that their really hold up depends upon UMNO. This kind of xenophobic view allows smooth operators like Reezal Merican (himself of dubious Malay lineage) to claim, God has selected UMNO to protect Malays!
Can God ever condone a deceit, corruption, a ravaging as well as plunder of a nation's resources as well as incompetence? It is a same xenophobia that allowed, years earlier, a Malay personality of similar stock as Reezal Merican as well as an UMNO President to blasphemously state that if God has not suggested Islam by Muhammad, God would have done it any way by someone else.
Today, Malay Muslim scholars have been tripping over each alternative to investigate a thoughts of Mao Tze Mahathir. Could it be, that someone else alluded by Mahathir is UMNO, since it was with this kind of empty talk , a same Reezal Merican was able to say, UMNO has perceived wahyu from God.
The survival of a Malays has got zero to do with UMNO. If it does, afterwards Malays in Selangor, in Kelantan, in Penang as well as in Kedah would no longer exist since in those states UMNO is a Opposition party.
Not that these have been not critical issues, though a basic fright of a Malays contingency be excised permanently. By a major emanate being all right we meant will their interests couched in conditions of religion, competition as well as nation sojourn protected? These have been a things many dear to a Malays, prepared or reduction so.
So we contingency go on to write about this emanate to reduce a fears of a Malays. For 55 years they have been frightened in to believing that but UMNO, their lives! meant n othing. Educated Malays contingency play a purpose stealing such undiscerning thinking from a minds of a infancy Malays.
In a modern democracy, adults get protection from a Rule of Law as well as from legal rights. For instance, a in front of as well as whatever benefits meant for Malays have been stable by a Agong as supposing for by a Constitution. The Agong does not cease to exist, if UMNO is not a government. The incoming supervision still has to defend a Rule of Law as well as a Constitution as well as by extension, a provisions therein.
The laws of a land have been a equates to by that society protects itself. Everyone can be safe as well as secure, not only Malays with a great supervision support democracy as well as a Rule of Law. UMNO is not a protector. The rights of Malays as well as of all adults have been independent of UMNO, that is only a vanishing political party. sakmongkol.blogspot.com
