Gen Y sucks!?
When the single reaches 50 or upon top of 40, there is the bent to see the benefaction from the viewpoint of the past. There is the great as great as bad side to it.
The great part is the benefaction is seen with the chronological perspective. There is the years of evolution taken in to consideration. Wisdom comes with age, they say.
Basically, knowledge from undergoing by events enables the single to anticipate problems, see destiny possibilities as great as opportunities, differentiate vital changes from teenager happenings, as great as the approach to residence or seize the situation.
While the bad part to it, we could be stuck in the past. There might have been poignant amicable change, to illustrate the glasses from the past might not be applicable for saying things today.
In the youth, we have use of to answer during the behind of the parents whenever they explain they have tasted salt earlier. We explain they customarily tasted the usual NaCl as compared to the many alternative as great as types of salts; KI, sea salt, herbal salt, kosher salt, etc. which we have tasted.
Anyway, we have been not about to get in to critical evidence upon the aged contra the brand brand new though to only share the repetition of the friend we see as applicable for the lady as great as immature of today.
When it comes to values, perspective as great as ethics, there should be no disproportion between the past as great as present. In fact, the aged school values still sojourn applicable as recipe of success. Perhaps somethings can be learned out of it.
------------------
Our friend, Man as the nickname we customarily residence him with, is an architect which proposed as great as rose the tough way.
We tumble in to the Baby Boomer era (born 1946-1964) though conjunction fit the character of the Malaysian chronicle described as the tyro demo era or successive Gen X (born 1966-1979).
The early 80s recession sank in as soon as Man graduated from Australia. He finish up becoming the temporary teacher in Mathematics as great as English for the integrate of years. As we recalled, he taught during the afterwards ITM.
The entrepreneurial suggestion as great as the desire to be his own trainer was so strong which he eventually became the single after many number of years in the profession he was never gentle as. He eventually get to begin his own practise.
Coming from the afterwards center category Malay, if the Dato Keramat Kuala Lumpur community can be deliberate one, he didn't have the funding. He had already been skipping repaying of his MA! RA schol arship for many years. So he had to rely upon appropriation from the Singaporean financier.
It turns out he didn't get to feel similar to his own trainer though was dictated as great as pushed by the Singaporean.
Many years or decades later, as great as many tough knocks of painful experiences which had its cost, he can be described as settled.
The association he proposed with is his though he still harbours the goal to be landed with the big the single to infer his layer as an Architect or Planner (we have been not utterly certain what he is now).
Nevertheless, he has been around the block to be able to contend he has seen things as great as done things.
One thing about being around prolonged sufficient the single knows roughly all the shit, hanky panky as great as strange going ons in the industry. Ma! n can be awfully, though justifiably, sour with the approach things is going around down there in the internal office building industry.
But these days he is many concerned with the perspective problems prevailing amongst the brand brand new era of professionals, particularly the Malays. He lamented in the yahoogroups. "Gen Y sucks!" he complained.
Read the caution before to reading, below:
------------------
THE WRITING HEREAFTER CONTAINS STRONG ADULT THEMES &am! p; MAY B E OFFENSIVE TO CERTAIN READERS. PARENTING DISCRETION IS ADVISED...!
I was treated to brunch currently by the fellow professional consultant in Shah Alam as the amicable gesture, as great as for him to kill time before to his subsequent appointment.
His initial goal was for the drink after an downright walk around the site with his site staff of four Gen Y's trimming from 25 up to 37. Being the gentlemen of the era, upon the small persuasion upon my part, we staid for brunch instead.
Out of courtesy, the twenty-seven yr aged woman Quantity Surveyor was invited, as great as the 43 yr aged Clerk-of-Works. Nothing surprising so far.
But when we got in to the cars, the inconsistency of the era gap showed.
These immature professionals could not lead, suggest or recommend! even th e simplest of finish for the meal. Mind we being in the city of plentiful tasty halal food outlets, these immature as great as not so immature adults became sum morons when both of us asked them to collect the mark to their liking.
Their indecisiveness was totally appalling; some-more so when all of them have had spent many of their operative careers in Shah Alam as great as the male that's going to provide us was their boss, the comparison partner of the firm.
So we picked the brand brand new outlet calledPindangin Section 10 which we had patronized the integrate of weeks during the behind of as the use was fast, flattering labelled as great as many importantly the toilet's purify as great as in perfect order.
True enough, the staff marched rught away to set the list for eight of us as great as inside of 10 mins the meals were served.
Now came the second annoyance.
These immature engineers talked nonsensically of their sparse issues; similar to football, futsal, computers, marriage of their colleague, etc. The woman QS kept still all the time to the extent of being bold to the guest.
These ridiculous Gen Y professionals could NOT exchange even elementary pleasantries to comparison practitioners similar to us, let alone having the deferential review with the Malay elders..!!!
They can describe ONLY to their interests; complete rapacity in my opinion. Not even the query upon their part upon any of the well-being to this elder/boss person. we find which flattering offensive..
The oldest of the Gen Y operative glued his eyes upon the hockey compare upon the TV shade during the behind of his boss. Can't even come up with any current or interesting topic to share with his boss.
To supp! lement i nsult, the trainer afterwards walked to the teller during the during the behind of of the emporium to pay the dish himself. These immature guys simply kept their eyes upon TV as if zero happened.
But cling to on, that's not the finish of it.
We got during the behind of to the site office as great as chitchatted accidentally for about 20 mins upon family issues. His staff which he had treated did not get during the behind of after some-more than half-an-hour after - yes, they got chores to do during the circuitously shopping mall to illustrate leaving their trainer in great palm of yours truly...!!!
Postponing their errand to take care of their trainer did not cranky their mind.
So the eventuality this sunrise was really an eye-opener for me.
I simply could not endure the selfishness, haughty as great as mindless gestures of the immature professionals upon the amicable undertaking - some-more so when all of us though the single fella we! re Malay s. The alternative male was an Arab connoisseur from the internal university.

Another gem of observation from Man the week later:
------------------
While seeking by some plumbing blue-prints, this immature rsther than attractive operative peered over my shoulder grinning with the question,
'Bos hari ni kenapa rajin?'
That subject caught me off-guard. Took the integrate of seconds for my Intel Pentium X-1960 to process as great as retort,
'Aku NAMPAK rajin sebab kau malas! Cuba kau buat kerja kauwith which mechanism rsther than than chitchatting forever between your colleagues, than we would crop up to be'tak buat kerja'.
I did not contend the second judgment as what is written above, some-more to which outcome of sarcasm instead.
He gave the wily cackle to my reply.
I goal he would lay wide watchful which night thinking of my damning answer; though afterwards again he's from Y-Generation. Most likely he did not get to my point, shrug it in reserve as great as play futsal which evening or update his FB account....

The subsequent day an additional observation:
------------------
A immature woman QS from Johor got married dual weeks ago to the 33-year aged Contract's Manager of the developer who's hometown is in Pasir Mas, Kelantan. we could not have the trip to her marriage down south; nor had any goal to have the trip to Kelantan either.
She came during the behind of to work this week to face copiousness of teasing from all of us upon site - being the youngest of the lot, she's cheekily sporting with the smiling of the 'seniors'... until she mentioned which her brand brand new father had gone during the behind of to KB early this week in credentials for the groom's reception this coming weekend.
That's fine we guessed, until currently we learned which she will be receiving the bus to Pasir Mas tomorrow all by herself, whilst her family members will be traveling direct from JB upon the weekend. She was operative up to 6 this evening until we had to provoke her either she ever had the goal of getting during the behind of to KB for the ceremony!
She laughed halfheartedly, sighing upon the week finish chaotic report of an eventuality which any woman should treasure as great as cherish all by her life...!!!
It's pathetic & insane o! f today& #39;s immature alpha males to simply vouchsafing their wives finding their own ways, off all the places - to the out-laws home town...!!!
This is NOT any ordinarybalik-kampung rayaor school holidays, damn it. It's their marriage - how could this alien male being downright STUPID!
And we should listen to what her criticism upon the marriage cinema which I've yet to see?
'Malu nak tunjuk kat Bos, 'cos my father said which we look fat in the marriage photos ...!!!'
There's many some-more incidences before to HER marriage which it's utterly ridiculous to expand here. Suffice & bewail to contend which this lady got married to ! the TOTAL IDIOT, full stop..!!
Then again, who am we to judge rsther than than being the scold half-century busy physique & nosy aged man. we will keep we guys posted upon any brand brand new growth upon this Gen-Y couple.

A friend forwarded the chain email upon the plight of the former 10A Malay tyro which went to Egpyt though was brought during the behind of since of the unrest.
The email ask for assistance with courtesy to her MARA scholarship. She is not allowed to lay for hearing till MARA clears the fee as great as alternative bills.
We suspicion it was strange since MARA office building is so noticeable, visible as great as accessible during Jalan Raja Laut as great as Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman in Kuala Lumpur. If she is the MARA scholar, the University would have sorted it out.
If not, she could arrange it herself rsther than sent email to strangers.
Man commented:
------------------
Gen Zlagi lahsuckres-blues....!!!
20As joke mesti disuap makan, jinjing ketoilet,beli kanall kinds of electronic gadgets & digital games... In short, the As have been purely educational & insignificant in WORKING & SURVIVING situation.
With as well many options, alternatives & exposures from the Net navigation - these digital dreamers have been livid in creation decisions; confronting hurdles or receiving risk to their careers.
They have been simply afraid to fail - for fear of being laughed upon. They cocoon their thoughts, whi! lst thei r blogs might appear to be illusory - in reality the storyline could be an additional cut-and-paste; or as often mentioned - recycled!
Yes, they contingency crop up super-cool all the time only similar to their stoic digital characters - so most so which the moment they open their mouths, it's character destruction my fren - TOTALLY EMPTY from inside. Soulless & lifeless.....
Try out yourself. Ask these flattering zombies some thinking questions similar to what's their top 3 legal holiday destination, meals or simply sports. You will listen to copiousness of err, humm or even 'I dunno!' answers from them. Worse still - 'I can't confirm / select any.'
Then provoke them upon the conflicting sex features which they like, as great as we will not

The Hindraf dilemma - BN or Pakatan?
FGVH IPO: BN States Forced To Subscribe To IPO Shares?
The Prime Minister, Dato' Seri Najib Razak has upon 31 May 2012 pronounced which Felda Global Venture Holdings' (FGVH) initial open charity (IPO) will turn a "domestic organisation in to a tellurian player" at a launch of a company's prospectus.
According to Bernama, a Prime Minister combined which "he was also unapproachable as a pierce at listing has gained extraordinary acceptance as well as now Felda is confronting a brand brand new problem - gratifying all parties applying for a FGVH shares."
However, as listed upon FGVH's handbill (pg 32), 5 Barisan Nasional-ruled states - Pahang (5%), Sabah (5%), Perak (0.4%), Terengganu (0.16%) as well as Negeri Sembilan (0.28%) will be receiving up 10.84% of a FGVH's lengthened share capital.
These states have supposing "irrevocable undertakings" to allow for a IPO shares. Based upon a shares accessible to be subscribed by investors, a states have been actually receiving up 18.1% a supports to be raised, worth we estimate RM1.8 billion.
If in truth a direct for FGVH shares is so prohibited as described by a Prime Minister, because is it which these Barisan Nasional (BN) states have been being asked or even forced to give "irrevocable undertakings" to acquire such a substantial portion of a IPO shares upon offer?
In fact, a merger of such a big interest in FGVH by a respective states supplement little worth to a organization as a shares have been being sold by Federal Government-owned FELDA, which skeleton to revoke a interest in FGVH from 100% to 40%. FELDA which is a statutory body already holds in certitude a interest of all Malaysians as well as Malaysian states in FGVH, so because is there a need to as! k for mo ney from a Malaysian states which have been by far poorer than a Federal Government?
What makes it some-more perplexing is, a investment by these states is not meant to fund FGVH's destiny investment as well as operations by subscribing to brand brand new FGVH shares being issued. These states have been appropriation their shares directly from FELDA, which equates to tha! t a RM 1.8 billion lifted will go to a Federal Government, as well as not a company!
The subject contingency be asked as to because is a Federal Government or FELDA is such unfortunate need for funds, firstly to massively sell down a interest in FGVH from 100% to only 40%, as well as secondly upon because such desperation which it contingency even draw supports from a Malaysian states?
Both a Government as well as FELDA has not responded to my progressing statement upon what is a dictated use of a RM5.5 billion which it will raise for itself from a sale of a shares in FGVH. The perfect miss of transparency does not bode well for FELDA or FGVH as surely, a people will be assured which there is some-more than it meets a eye. - tonypuablog Read More @ Source

Noh: Unisel loans to resume if PKR admits wrong
The freeze upon tyro loans for state government-owned Universiti Selangor was thetopic du jourat a press discussion with Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin during SK Taman Melawati in Selangor today.
Reporters grilled Muhyiddin, who is also preparation minister, upon a make a difference usually to have a apportion sayad nauseumthat a freeze is a test for PKR to infer it can exercise a giveaway preparation proposal.
Backing Muhyiddin was Agriculture as good as Agro-based Industries Minister as good as Selangor Umno deputy chief Noh Omar, who during a same event pronounced students will not humour as a result of a pierce as PTPTN will resume giving out loans once PKR admits it was wrong.
Below is a transcript of a press conference, regarding to a PTPTN issue:
Journalist: Could we criticism upon PTPTN's pierce to freeze loans to Unisel?
Muhyiddin:I believe (Higher Education Minister) Khaled Nordin announced this as a Selangor MB pronounced they wish to annul PTPTN as good as Unisel is state-owned. (He) wants to see if a students can unequivocally cope though PTPTN...that's a reason.
The emanate doesn't arrise for other universities or colleges. Maybe he wanted to check if (PKR) is for real, to unequivocally check.
If finally it turns out which a students need PTPTN afterwards it shows which PKR had due something unreasonable though considering a students.
It's a make a difference of preparation as good as students' future, so we believe Khaled is smart enough to import a situation. After he is satisfied, maybe...
The opposition is observant w! hich you 're taking out your anger upon a students?
We have been not angry. This emanate was lifted by them, not us. For lots of schools, universities as good as colleges, either in isolation or public, students enroll due to PTPTN.
They do not know what they're talking about as good as right away it's backfired upon them so they've woken up though won't own up to their mistake.
Why was Unisel kept in a dark?
That is PTPTN's matter, it is a body... it is reviewing, as a Selangor supervision pronounced it doesn't need PTPTN loans for a students. If a MB doesn't wish it afterwards PTPTN need not give. Selangor needs to find a own funds.
We have given loans to all. This freeze is rare as good as usually as reaction to Pakatan leaders who contend they wish to annul PTPTN.
Is it a obliged thing to do behind a university's back?
Your subject is very malicious. we consider all a other media know that's not what we mean.
(PTPTN) did not cancel all loans, though during a moment halted it so they can examination it first. That's fairlah.
If a (Selangor) MB says there's no need for students to take a loans, afterwards PTPTN need not give out a loans.
But a subject was because wasn't a university informed?
Never mind, they have been studying it.
(Muhyiddin is asked upon opposite matters, though earnings to PTPTN)
PKR has pronounced which giveaway preparation is a sovereign matter?
There is nothing giveaway in this world, when it's giveaway someone else has to pay. If PKR says it is free, who will compensate for teachers, books? Does PKR have appropriation entrance from a sky? Or will they lift taxes? ! So it is a rakyat who will pay.
So when they contend something similar to this, it is political. We as supervision won't do something though first considering it thoroughly.
If all is free, good even I'll agree to which though during a finish of a day who pays? Are teachers free? Books, have been they free? Equipment in schools, this building, free? Someone has to pay, who is it? The rakyat.
The gov ernment says no need to compensate so it raises taxes to give giveaway education. That's a reason. If it doesn't a supervision will go bankrupt.
They have to study these things, do not just contend it. The rakyat will be happy if all is free. we as well will opinion for them 100 times though during a finish of a day, would a supervision or party obliged to a nation contend such a thing? Or have been they trying to hurt a country's future as good as a economy upon purpose?
No a single can give things for free. If we work in a in isolation sector, which company would contend we give it to we for free, during a finish of a day who's starting to pay? Salary, food, drinks, who will pay?
Schooling expenses, giveaway food, who pays for it? Whatever we can await we will, many of it is free. But if all is to be free...
They have to be responsible, shouldn't play with as well most governing body or else a rakyat will be confused as good as captivated to promises similar to this which in reality will hurt a country. They have to be responsible.
(Muhyiddin leaves for lunch.)
Noh(left): Unisel is underneath a state supervision so if they wish to give giveaway preparat! ion (the re), what has it got to do with a sovereign government?
PTPTN gives loans to in isolation college students. If a state declares it cannot means to give giveaway preparation as good as walk a talk afterwards we am assured a sovereign supervision is not cruel.
Education is a sovereign (government's) jurisdiction.
True, if a university is underneath sovereign powers. But who owns Unisel? we wish to plea a MB to acknowledgement if Unisel is creation money or in debt. If they can't even manage Unisel...
PTPTN is funded by taxpayers money. Does it meant which a sovereign supervision should return Selangor's tax?
It's not a subject of returning or not returning. This is a most appropriate possibility for PKR to infer which it can provide giveaway preparation as Unisel is underneath a state government.
If they cannot afterwards declarelah. If they declare, we am assured a Higher Education Ministry will give a students a loans. We have been giving them a chance, if they can't, PTPTN will give a loan, it's not similar to it won't. It's a possibility for Selangor to infer itself.
This is a incident between two domestic parties as good as a students have been suffering.
No collision. What is this? Students do not suffer. If a state can give them giveaway preparation afterwards because would they suffer? You do not talk upon interest of a state government.
I'm not talking upon interest of a state government.
Let a MB answer. Whether a state supervision declares if they can means it or not.
The emanate is we have been asking PTPTN to during a moment hindrance a loans...the kids had formerly gotten loans. We wish to see if PKR can fulfill a promise. This is! a right time. Do we understand?
So if they acknowledgement which they cannot means to..
They essentially cannot means to do it.
The Selangor supervision as a state supervision can't means to though a opposition argue they can do it during sovereign level.
No, we have to understand. Who does Unisel go to? Is it a sovereign university?
Where does higher preparation appropriation come from?
No. Does it go to a sovereign government?
PTPTN is not just for Selangor, it's nationwide.
True. Now, we have been observant Unisel can give giveaway preparation though PTPTN.
Is this a domestic game?

Najib on the horns of a dilemma over polls date
All of final year, this subject enjoyed the sparkle which was grist for the chattering classes, gazing during their crystal balls, to predict when polls would be held.
As 2012 began, the timing subject became even some-more titillating, similar to the nonplus of an unsolved crime.
But as the clock wound down to when the ubiquitous choosing must be reason as good as as event-induced deferrals dissapoint Prime Minister Najib Razak's faith upon when it was propitious to call one, the oomph oozed out of the timing question.
Still, the PM must be sustaining in the belief he enjoys room in which to maneuver so which he obtains the most favourable impulse to go for it.
Former PM Dr Mahathir Mohamad has suggested him to reason off the preference compartment conditions have been some-more gainful for the BN victory.
Mahathir has suggested which the time afforded Najib by deferral of the polls could profitably be used to win behind Chinese await for the BN.
That is similar to Beijing thinking which they can have use of the time they have waiting out the Dalai Lama's genocide to win his followers' acquiescence to the permanence of Chinese suzerainty over Tibet - something that's very unlikely to happen.
It is challenging to see how cond! itions i n the future could be better for Najib than presently acquire for him.
He seems, in conditions of capability to repair upon the suitable impulse for the polls, held between the rock as good as the tough place.
April polls final year
In the year past, factors which appe! ared vag uely melancholy to the PM's prospects of branch up an genius where the timing of the polls is concerned, have right away become decidedly ominous for his well-being.
If there is the single comment which has acquired the aura of the forever quotable for former British Prime Minister Harold Wilson, it was his oblivious which "a week is the prolonged time in politics."
To Najib, the couple of months must right away seem an eternity, since which he may have wanted to go for the ubiquitous choosing as early as Apr final year when Sarawak Chief Minister Abdul Taib Mahmud was obliged to reason the state poll.
At which time Najib must have felt he enjoyed room enough for maneuver to concede BN's Taib to go forward to the polls whilst he could reason behind as good as view the choosing in Sarawak as the gauge by which to establish what some-more he needed to do before job for the ubiquitous election.
But which space which Najib thought he enjoyed during once tightened similar to the noose as good as began to chafe during his prospects when polls remodel advocacy group Bersih staged the gathering in Kuala Lumpur upon Jul 9 final year.
The Bersih 2.0 d! emonstra tion - the conspicuous size as good as the multiracial appearance - was the strong signal to Najib which he would have to reckon with the final of the vigour group or pay the forfeit during the polls.
He chose to reckon with it by pledging in September to commence liberalising measures in bureau of the goal to have Malaysia the "best democracy".
Those reforms have turned out to be some-more glisten than substance, regardless of what US Senator John McCain's pronounced about the PM being an "impressive liberal."
Even as which assurance about wanting the shape metal the "best democracy" was since by the PM, an ominous thunderhead began to climb upon the! horizon , in tandem with the conflict of the uninformed liaison connected with the cattle-breeding project.
The French connection
Though the disclosures from the latter scam usually eroded await for the Najib administration, it was the upcoming make the difference in France which was the some-more ominous development.
This concerned the launch of the legal exploration into alleged temptation in the country's sale of counterclaim weaponry to Taiwan as good as Malaysia.
The exploration reason the probability which the billion ringgit squeeze of submarines from the French in the mid-2000s when Najib was counterclaim apportion would come in for scrutiny which could threaten the reigning politician's longevity in office.
Because the submarine squeeze is suspected to have been tied up with the puzzling genocide of the Mongolian woman Altantuya Shaariibuu in late 2006 in Malaysia, the French exploration as good as what it unearths could only be the make the difference of foresight to the former counterclaim apportion as good as current PM.
The mystery-shrouded dispatch of the prominent Malaysian lawyer upon the goal of undisclosed sobriety when the exploration began in earnest earlier this year was similar to the mobile phone conversation, never denied, between Najib as good as his aide, Abdul Razak Baginda, when the latter was indicted for the murder of Altantuya as good as had sued for Najib's help.
Both the review in which Najib tells Razak Baginda to stay cold as all would be good as good as the lawyer's puzzling outing reek with an eighth month as good as tantalising obscurity.
Missed opportunity
Anxiety over the revelations the exploration would haemorrhage heightened after the inquest's disclosure which the Malaysian naval tip was sold to the French in the bidding p! relude t o the submarine purchase.
If true, this is the sort of liaison which could bring down democratic governments.
But ours is the simulated rsther than than concrete democracy as good as the government, similar to the assuage swimmer held in the fraudulent undertow, can still survive especially if it is inside of steer of the shoreline which in this box is the ubiquitous election.
But the potentially fatal currents of the French inquiry, the country's murky economic prospects stemming from one after another anemia in the markets in US, Europe as good as right away China, total with Bersih's yet-! to-be re ckoned final protracted by the successful entertainment of the third demonstration of challenging impact, not to mention the probability of some-more scandals being uncorked, all collaborate to push the PM out to sea.
To Najib, the time when he could have called the ubiquitous choosing in tandem with the Sarawak state check right away looks similar to an irretrievably lost opportunity.

Well, in elementary terms, anyone can be a personality as prolonged as he can get sufficient supporters. So either a Malay or a non-Malay can be PM is secondary to a question, 'Who has a biggest support?'
The constitution does not contend that a Prime Minister contingency be Malay. What is viewable is that a Yang di-Pertuan Agong contingency be Malay. The constitution suggests that a Agong will select a personality who can authority a await of a majority of parliamentarians. So if a single day, a Agong considers someone to have a best probability to lead a majority of parliamentarians, either he or she is Malay, Chinese, Indian, Kadazan, Eurasian, or from any alternative background, he will select that chairman to turn Prime Minister.
This is a typical Malay! sian men tal trap. We have a tendency to see all as well much through a racial viewpoint. Many intelligent Malaysians honestly consider that they're articulate about democracy by suggesting a non-Malay PM or DPM. But we see it is a single of a mental sicknesses that we have, of a need to look during things from a racial perspective. To some, often maybe a little politicians, they may not be so transparent about how care works. Or maybe they're upon purpose regulating this subject to set upon popularity.
If we have been severely meditative about democracy as well as we look during it by representation, as well as for example we indicate a Deputy Prime Minister should be represented by someone from a competition that creates up 30% of a population, because not consider outside of race? We can indicate a female Deputy Prime Minister, as women have been 50% of a population. Another outlook is instead of looking during gender, we can look during age - we have a very vast competition of immature people. Should we additionally argue that we should have a Deputy Prime Minister from Gen Y? Also, should we additionally speak about it from a geographical indicate of view? Here we have been done up of two geographical areas, a single Peninsula as well as a single Sabah as well as Sarawak. There have been many ways to look during it, though we still keep descending in to a competition trap. So, we contingency ask because harp upon race? Are they simply playing politics?
I indicate that we stop looking during competition in this make a difference - it is a rubbish of time, it is an educational question. Whoever becomes a PM, DPM or ministers, whoever becomes a manager, managing director, a doctor, a counsel - what is critical is not racial representation. Even if we have 10 Malays running a country, or 10 Chinese or 10 Indians or 10 Ibans, what is critical is that we have lea! ders who will consider for everyone. Someone who thinks for all Malaysians, Malaysian first- not race.
The answer is simple. "Pakatan Rakyat" leaders have regularly represented a Malaysian population. They have a await of a far-reaching spectrum of Malaysians.
Historically, "Pakatan Rakyat" has regularly sought to paint everybody via their energy sharing formula, initial through a Alliance (UMNO-MCA-MIC), as well as after May 13, through Barisan Nasional (at a single indicate of time, even PAS was in Barisan Nasional).
The leaders of "Pakatan Rakyat", over a years, have turn complacent as well as they forgot a need to paint a far-reaching spectrum of Malaysians that we referred to earlier. Their failure to take care of a civic Malaysians, their overzealous doing of certain movement plans that additionally benefited a rich, as well as perceived crime has punctured a hole in a care of "P! akatan R akyat" as well as to illustrate there's a vast segment of Malaysians who feel they have been not represented by a "Pakatan Rakyat" leadership.
The PAS of today is not a same as a PAS of yesteryears. In a early theatre of their domestic movement, PAS was myopic. PAS was meditative usually for a Malays. Only during a 1980s did a PAS care realize that they indispensable to court a non-Malays in sequence to gain energy as well as lead nationally. So they embarked upon a courting action via a Chinese Consultative Council (CCC).
DAP's domestic movement for a prolonged time, from a very beginning, does not behave as a domestic celebration who wants to wring energy as well as run a nation. They were a celebration busy perplexing to execute that they have been champions of a Chinese. Whether true or not, that is a notice that a big part of a republic has towards DAP.
The domestic parties in Malaysia have been maturing. They have been commencement to realize that representing usually a single organisation of people can get we in to Parliament, though not in to Putrajaya.

ISU PTPTN! ANWAR MEMANG BODOH NAK MAMPOS!
Dalam ceramahnya bersama Lim Guan Eng itu, Anwar yang juga Penasihat Ekonomi Selangor turut menjanjikan PTPTN akan dihapuskan dalam jangka masa setahun selepas peralihan kerajaan pusat sekiranya pakatan pembangkang memenangi pilihanraya umum ke 13 kelak.
Konon hendak diganti dengan pendidikan serba percuma. Walhal Anwar lupa, Yayasan Selangor milik kerajaan Selangor hingga kini telah menutup pusat pendidikan kemahiran serta asrama kediaman pelajarnya.
Mana logiknya untuk Anwar mempraktikkan pendidikan percuma? Kontradik & memualkan sekali, tidak begitu?
Zaman sekarang sudah ramai yang buka mata dan bijak berfikir jauh ke depan. Tak semudah dan sewenang-wenangnya untuk Anwar terus menjual temberang dan mengabui mata rakyat.
Omong kosong dan propaganda murahan seperti yang kerap di usung oleh Anwar dan pakatan pembangkang sudah dianggap seperti gebang penjual ubat & makjun kesihatan di jalanan. Seronok untuk di dengar tapi mudarat untuk di guna pakai.
Dari sudut lain pula, bukankah bila pinjaman yang sudah dimeterai perjanjian kontrak dan terma syaratnya dipersetujui, apabila sengaja dilanggar memperlihatkan sikap tidak bertanggungjawab? Walhal, jika PTPTN itu membebankan, lebih baik dari awal lagi dijauhi.
Anwar lupa, majoriti rakyat Malaysia bukannya sebodoh pemuja dan pengikutnya. Baik Melayu, Cina, India, kadazan, Iban dan apa saja kaum di bumi bertuah ini amat jelas resam bila berhutang menjadi kewajipan pula untuk patuh pada perjanjian pembayaran semula.
Tanyalah siapa saja yang waras fikirannya, mereka akan bercakap perkara yang sama - hutang wajib dibayar.
Waima kerajaan negeri Pulau Pinang yang ditadbir oleh DAP hingga kini terus aktif memburu ratusan rakyatnya yang gagal membayar semula wang pinjaman pendidika! n yayasa n negeri, mana mungkin untuk rakyat meyakini temberang dan hasutan Anwar.
Namun apabila Anwar menghasut rakyat khususnya para pelajar mengingkari bayaran semula pinjaman PTPTN, itu jelas menonjolkan sikapnya tidak bertanggungjawab seorang pemimpin.
Jelaslah, Anwar sebetulnya hanya menjemput bala apabila menggesa peminjam mengabaikan tanggungjawab membayar semula pinjaman.
Rakyat Malaysia tidak mungkin sanggup membiarkan tanahair ini diserahkan kepada Anwar dan pembangkang yang tiada sikap cakna dan tanggungjawab.
