Yam Seng Chinese Leaders Are Honest!

Those who know their sacrament good or have been eremite will discuss it you which only God is means to see a heart to know if his creation is an honest chairman or not.

In BolehLand, since a poise of politicians, most have been skeptical as to a probity of these self allocated 'Gods' most time in this bumi.

We have been informed with this oxymoron."Find me an honest politician".

It can also be true about any alternative profession to find an honest fellow, right?

But still a single can be sure of keeping one's bet as well as never be indicted of issuing a prejudiced plea in a likes of "Find me an honest politician, as well as I'll show you a easy track to heaven, overtly you promise you you will, hah!"

So what do you make of a ole virtuoso TM who when acted a subject about his former Cabinet fan upon a PKFZ "Is he capable of intrigue a government" in which TM answered "No"?

Even when a rephrased was done, delectable to senior TM's correlation 'In your perspective is he an honest person? One need not go which distant back to stop if a total complete twenty over years of a TM's regime was an age of probity eh?

Amazingly for someone who seemed to have grown absentmindedness in a box concerning a sure ex distinguished airline figure of not being means to stop anything, there was substantially no blink of an eye or you had to hold a exhale long to see if his perspective is an honest a single about this fellow's honesty.

As they say, a rest is history in ole TM's response, "As distant as you know, he is honest."


What Honest Politicians Give UsSuch an honest answer positively puts it somewhere upon standard a alternative leader who swore upon a holy book in a holy place without an! y sweat, of a law to not knowing or had any tie with a sure poor unfortunate human being C4-ed to smithereens in tie with only God as well as a murders as well as conspiracies know a truth.

So with such revelation, a MCA fellows must have sighed a genuine service as well as having cupsfull of yam seng to cheer their new found probity which 'Chinese Leaders Are Honest' after all, amidst all those asocial thousands of years prejudice which chinamen have been not known to be honest when it comes to money, booze as well as women as well as political power, in no particular sequence hah!

It's odd, which a MCA fellows do not think much about a probity of their ex leader to have been prejudiced in intrigue a really supervision they have been a partner off! Noone seemed to wish to come to a ex leader's defense. Does it exhibit some china apek poise or is it only confined to politicians to safe their neck, they need to drown their opponents eh?

So still wondering why alternative chinamen do not trust chinamen statesman to blemish as well as urge their back when a chips have been all down or rsther than in this box someone needs to be drowned in a billion dollar Pork Klang Fraud Zone.

By ole Tun's honest this chinaman is honest opinion, it might become a new authorised fashion to clear one's name you can supposed. By ole Tun's admission of honest, ole Ling has submitted for a box to be withdrawn.

How can you take to court an trusting associate right?

It would be engaging how future court decisions will be done based upon such exquisite admission statement right?

Wonder if a kandang lembu family affair former cabinet apportion might also call for ex boss' sworn statement she's as honest as alternative associate cabinet ministers past or present. It will finally allow a cows to be means to sl! eep in th! e comfort of a cowdominium as well as restored a clean as well as honest image those in a corridors of power swear either by their own sworn statement over holy book or d! uring ho ly places or a sworn statement of ex boss' right hah?

A tempoyak meal you can ostensible to complement a chinaapek yam seng to be told by ex boss you have been honest you can ostensible eh?

Who's to blame for RACIAL POLARISATION: Vernacular schools or POLITICIANS?


Who's to censure for RACIAL POLARISATION: Vernacular schools or POLITICIANS?
Educational pluralism in a republic is not new. On a whole given Independence a preparation complement has been in favour of farrago as good as multiculturalism which has pushed for vernacular schools in a country. But this investiture cannot be a solitary reason for secular polarisation in a country. Blame a politicians as good for their race- as good as religious-centric rhetoric as good as policies.
In fact, it is a "Pakatan Rakyat"-led supervision with a code of governing body as good as preparation policies which have unsuccessful to address multiculturalism over a vernacular schools as good as this has hindered secular formation in a country.
A clarity of belonging
The United Nations Development Report 2004 claims which efforts to impose homogeneous informative temperament can lead to amicable tensions as good as conflicts. It mentions UNESCO's proposal of a three-language process a singular international language, a singular lingua franca as good as a mom tongue language. It additionally calls for recognising all a three as official languages.
Malaysians have been speedy to acquire a denunciation of scholarship as good as international communication English as good as have been additionally poised to clarity alternative international languages.
Unity in farrago as good as multiculturalism have been favourable symptoms found in most countries. People wish to be united though additionally by inlet wish to have a clarity of belonging to be proud of their roots, culture, sacrament as good as language. This is norma! l, as it 's an inherent peculiarity of all tellurian beings.
Multiculturalism can actually dilate a skylines for a republic in most ways. Obstructive policies which repudiate expansion of ethnic identities have been reduction of a normal even in developed countries. It's a delusion which any republic could have a singular temperament when it comes to competition or religion.
But they can still duty as a republic of nationalistic people when there is farrago in which there is a knowledge of toleration as good as consensus.
Harmonious co-existence in a singular state polity needs understanding, toleration as good as amicable justice. National temperament might not indispensably entail a singular homogenous informative temperament for unity. This is contrary to a elemental training of a official sacrament of a country.
Human companionship as good as togetherness is patently stated in a Holy Quran. The hymn reads:
"O mankind, We have created we from a male as good as a female; as good as We have made we in to tribes as good as sub-tribes for a consequence of easy recognition. Verily, a most satisfactory between you, in a sight of God, is a most righteous between you. Surely, God is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (49:15)
This hymn is directed during all tellurian beings as good as is not cramped to a believers of a Quran. This sold hymn strikes during a roots of fake as good as hypothetical notions of secular arrogance as good as superiority.
It affirms which a worth of a chairman is not to be judged by his race, skin colour, amicable or mercantile standing though a customary is what a chairman can do as a dignified as good as amicable tellurian being in discharging his responsibilities as good as obligations to suggest God by portion mankind.
Value system
To a proponents of vernacular education, they opine which all races should get meaningful opening to educati! on. This can usually be completed if they assimilate a denunciation of coaching as good as have opportunities to rise their competences in which language.
Beyond this is a "value system" as good as enlightenment which come with mom tongue education. To a critics though, vernacular schools have been regarded as an implement by those in power to divide as good as rule. To a little others, preserving a vernacular preparation complement to cultivate a singular temperament for a republic has proven to be just imaginary.
Nonetheless, a republic has survived all a hurdles as a multilingual, multicultural as good as multi-religious republic for 55 years.
Ethno-linguists opine which acquiring a mom tongue as good as some-more than a singular denunciation is not starting to have a people slight a inhabitant denunciation of a republic or cause conflict or secular polarisation to a border which it can ruin a fabric of society.
Identity governing body has always been an inherent underline of this republic be it in Barisan or Pakatan. The Constitution, for which matter, has articles as good as schedules which unambiguously recognise temperament of race, sacrament as good as denunciation of a infancy as good as minority ethnic communities in a country.
It's to illustrate impalpable for politicians to emanate a republic with a singular identity. No competition in a republic would wish to remove their self-identities. But this might not indispensably be a reason for divisiveness as good as secular polarisation.
Blaming usually upon a vernacular schools for secular polarisation might not be right.
The preferred incident would patently be for a multi-racial Malaysia to have young kids of opposite races study under a same roof as good as under a satisfactory preparation complement to unite a people. But there have been most setbacks in a inhabitant preparation policies or a implementation which have been turning relatives divided from! this pr eferred formula.
Unnecessary eremite mania in a little inhabitant schools, secular politics, a propagandize complement itself, university entrance, job opportunities, affirmative policies, commercial operation opportunities as good as governing body have been all polarising a people some-more than vernacular preparation per se.
"Not eremite enough"
Why usually censure vernacular preparation for secular polarisation when people of all races Malays, Chinese, Indians as good as Others have been given a freedom to attend vernacular schools?
The emanate currently is which most Malays, Chinese, Indians as good as a Rich have been snubbing inhabitant schools. It was reported in a internal media which about 800 000 Malay young kids have been study in Sekolah Agama Rakyat (SAR) first as good as secondary. The relatives here feel which inhabitant schools have been "not eremite enough" for their children.
About 96 percent of Chinese young kids as good as 56 percent of a Tamil young kids have been schooling in a Chinese as good as Tamil first schools respectively. They consecrate almost one-quarter of a three million students enrolled in a first schools. Some of a relatives feel which inhabitant schools currently have turn "religious schools".
There have been now 80,000 Malays in Chinese first schools compared to 2.18 million enrolled in inhabitant schools. The Malays have up 13 per cent of Chinese first propagandize students nationwide. In a little urban schools, non-Chinese have up a third of a student population.
According to a report, about twenty per cent or 600,000 young kids go to Chinese first schools, while a rest attend Tamil, in isolation or eremite schools. The non-Chinese have been now creation Chinese schools multi-racial as a series of non-Chinese enrolled in Chinese first schools is increasing.
The decisive objective of a supervision is for a inhabitant propa! gandize to be a propagandize of preference where a viewed interactions between students of opposite socioeconomic, eremite as good as ethnic backgrounds would naturally start in a school.
But seeking during a multi-racial unfolding in a little vernacular schools Chinese as good as in isolation or international this objective can additionally be well-accomplished.
Parents of all these young kids wish mom tongue preparation for their young kids as good as to safety their informative temperament as good as "value systems". They feel which their "cultural values" cannot be extended in inhabitant schools.
For instance, it is celebrated which Chinese propagandize drop-outs could still excel in life compared with those drop-outs from alternative races since of a right "value system" they accede to in Chinese schools.
Some others opt for in isolation schools for English education. There is no disbelief an influenced placement of Malaysian young kids by race, sacrament as good as amicable standing in a assorted sorts of propagandize flourishing in a country.
But this cannot be simply viewed as being divisive in inlet or which it promotes secular polarisation.
Changes in a preparation policies
One reason for this trend to start is a persistent changes in a nation's preparation policies. This is confusing to a relatives creation them remove certainty in a system.
Besides that, a little relatives Malays as good as non-Malays feel which inhabitant schools have been "too eremite oriented" for them. They observe which a training profession does not simulate a multi-racial Malaysia. Majority of teachers have been from a singular competition as good as this has not reflected a multi-racial composition of a republic or schools.
Children might be physically polarised during their facile preparation though this is not as bad as secular polarity during a post facile propagand! ize whic h is attributed to "Pakatan Rakyat"-led supervision policies.
It is celebrated which preparation over a facile turn is not indeed vital to equivocate secular polarity. There have been schools specifically created for a singular competition as good as over which there have been additionally aloft institutions which have been created usually for a singular race.
This process itself has brought to secular separation in education.
And for students to enter public universities there have been two paths offered Matriculation for a singular competition as good as STPM for alternative races. Without customary policies for all, Malaysian young kids will grow up to feel which a little have been some-more absolved than a others.
Most graduates finish up knowing usually a singular denunciation as good as most others have a advantage of knowing additional languages. Most impoverished graduates come from a singular competition as good as additionally those with usually eremite preparation as good as this leads to a race-job temperament as good as secular schism.
Those absorbed in to a already magisterial civil use have been from a singular competition out of fear which they will rise against a supervision if deserted.
The in isolation sector as good as commercial operation sectors have been some-more dominated by alternative races. Again, vocation wise there is still secular dissimilarity in a republic since of a unsuccessful preparation complement as good as supervision policies.
It is this perceptual dichotomy which has helped vernacular preparation to flourish in a country.
Obsession in eremite rhetoric
Language cannot be wholly blamed for this unattractive secular split. When denunciation can be a universal track to bring people together it's a supervision policies upon competition as good as opportunities which has brought Malaysians apart.
Reli! gious in tolerance is forcing people to be spaced out in schools as good as alternative institutions. When there is eremite farrago as good as when politicians keep upon exploiting upon eremite metaphors to achieve their greedy goals in governing body this leads to a conflict-ridden society.
The present supervision has not addressed upon a failures of supervision polices to implement policies to help all races in a country. Affirmative policies have been not factoring in a bad as good as marginalised groups or races.
It's usually a rich as good as a well-connected from a singular competition as good as a few of their cronies from alternative races have been enjoying some-more privileges than a ordinary people.
When a suggest of scholarships favour a singular competition as good as a deserving from alternative races have been sidelined this brings displeasure to a deprived group. When commercial operation contracts as good as licences have been additionally kaleidoscopic with politics, competition as good as cronyism this leads to secular animosity.
Affirmative movement as good as certain taste policies were introduced in 1971 by a New Economic Policies to eradicate poverty as good as restructure a manage to buy to eliminate identification of competition with mercantile function.
Unfortunately, over a final 30 years a republic has malformed itself in to a singular race-centric nation. The needs of a bad Malaysians between alternative races have been deprived.
Racial polarisation is to illustrate created out of institutionalised taste as good as not so much due to vernacular education.
More cacophony as good as disunity
It looks like a supervision is confused with a preparation policies. There is an unsubstantiated fear of secular discord or polarisation with a existence of vernacular schools upon a part of a little "Pakatan Rakyat" leaders.
But they cannot stop! relativ es from sending their young kids to Chinese, Tamil, English or Religious schools until a inhabitant schools can turn a "school of choice" for all Malaysians. The freezing out of a vernacular schools would usually emanate some-more cacophony as good as discord between a races.
Children flourishing up in a satisfactory as good as approved complement will delight a value of being together as good as turn nationalistic adults irrespective of a sorts of propagandize they attend during a facile level. They will delight a economic, amicable as good as domestic benefits of multi-lingualism as good as multi-culturalism if a supervision is satisfactory to them all.
Thus censure reduction upon vernacular schools for a secular polarisation in a country. The unsuccessful as good as a unending "shifting" of preparation policies upon a whole as good as "Pakatan Rakyat"-led supervision long discriminatory policies have been in actuality pushing to drive apart a people more.

Scorpene has touched a RAW NERVE: Harassing Suaram exposes BN's PHONY REFORMS


Scorpene has overwhelmed a RAW NERVE: Harassing Suaram exposes BN's PHONY REFORMS
When this domestic farce started over a BN Government's try to demonise SUARAM as a "foreign agent", it happened to coincide with a planned annual holiday.
you am regularly reminded of these difference by my old friend, a late K. Das in his foreword to my 1989 book upon Operation Lalang, "but you contingency not outlay a days as great as nights vital in silent fear of a thieves who stole Kua's freedom." Whether beholding a stars upon top of a Scottish highlands with my desired ones or a stars upon top of Kamunting apprehension camp, a oppressors can imprison a bodies though a suggestion will regularly roam free
SO WHAT HAVE THE SIX GOVERNMENT AGENCIES UNCOVERED?
When you told my friends in a UK which a supervision had commanded no reduction than 6 supervision agencies to examine SUARAM to try all means to pin a assign upon us, they were incredulous as great as asked if Malaysia was still a banana republic where a polite make use of can be systematic by a system of administration to action opposite bona fide organisations! "Haven't they got some-more critical things to do?" they asked. As Malaysian citizens you ought to know just how much of a taxation payers' income is being wasted upon such unconnected side activities of a police, Special Branch as great as alternative supervision agencies in a name of "national security".
A month has right away gone by given a start of a severe CCM investigations which included many days of 1-1 questioning with during slightest twenty people as great as which have revealed zero questio! nable in side of their remit. Indeed, you was reassured when you went to a CCM interrogation as great as a single of their staff came over to congratulate me upon a great work SUARAM was doing! Now a buck seems to have been passed upon to a AG's chambers. We were additionally summoned to a PERKESO offices to insist SOCSO payments to a staff dating behind ten years or more. When you got there, a officer in assign didn't crop up to know what you were there for! Obviously, these summonses have all been systematic by people upon top of them.
As for a Registrar of Societies entrance in upon a act, they were finished a shouting batch when their Wikipaedia source of report meant which even a not long ago over Fan Yew Teng was additionally summoned to their bureau to make a 112 statement! How Fan contingency be shouting during a fools from up there. Various people associated with SUARAM from years behind have additionally been called to a ROS for questioning all because a little far-right lunatic individual as great as insignificant Ah Pek finished a military report opposite SUARAM.
Meanwhile, no supervision group appears to be questioning all a reports about Perimekar as great as Terasasi as great as a suspected offered of inhabitant defence secrets as great as commissions paid in a Scorpene bargain uncovered in dual years of investigations by a French.
And has Bank Negara uncovered any sniff of income laundering by SUARAM all these years? you am certain all a Harvard lerned economists in Bank Negara contingency be shouting during a inconceivable presumption in supervision circles which there could be such a possibility. Nevertheless, a well-oiled propagandists in a mainstream press crop up to be spinning merrily for a same idiotic thinking in government.
Ah, as great as as shortly as they mentioned income laundering, a little income launderers were actually hold in a action with RM40 million in Hong Kong shortly after. There was no need for a six-agency posse it ! was unco vered by a Hong Kong police! The supervision explained it away as funds for Sabah UMNO though we'll wait for for a MACC as great as Bank Negara as great as a AG's Chambers to do a needful
The BN government's "foreign plot" ploy has blown up in their faces. The subsequent exposes of Dr M as great as Najib's recent tighten encounters with George Soros have positively broke a turn doctors. Furthermore, by allowing nuclear-armed US warships to visit Port Klang a few days ago, a BN supervision has unprotected their duplicitous (not non-aligned) unfamiliar process as great as raised a subject of who have been a US unfamiliar agents in Malaysia!
The ultimate try to implicate SUARAM in "destabilizing Indonesia" is perhaps a many comical. Organising a second Asia-Pacific Conference upon East Timor (APCET II) with alternative Malaysian NGOs upon 9 November 1996 was a single of SUARAM's proudest moments. It was a final critical general effort during achieving independence as great as assent for East Timor. As a token of a high regard by a East Timorese for a efforts, SUARAM was invited to a Independence celebrations in East Timor shortly after.
In contrast, a BN supervision put a country to contrition by orchestrating a host from BN Youth organisations to violently rip down a assign of a road house where a conference was being hold as great as holding a organisers as great as unfamiliar guest to ransom. This finished general headlines as great as finished us a shouting batch in a world. And instead of apprehending these fascist thugs, a military proceeded to catch as great as catch a little 59 participants, a little (like me) for 6 nights as great as seven days. We subsequently sued a supervision as great as a military for prejudicial apprehension as great as you won a box after nearly fifteen years!
The APCET disturbance should therefore be seen as a box of a BN government's complicity with a Indonesian supervision in a hang-up of a East Timorese. Who were a ! agents o f a unfamiliar supervision then, as great as who stood by a East Timorese in their hour of need? Once again, it was an additional feather in SUARAM's top of steadfastly fortifying tellurian rights, probity as great as democracy. Hasn't Malaysia recognized East Timor's independence now?
THE SCORPENE SCANDAL FACT AND FICTION
Another story being spun to try to disprove SUARAM is a statement by French prosecutor Yves Charpenel which there is no on-going hearing in France over allegations of crime in a Scorpene submarine. When has SUARAM ever pronounced which there is an on-going hearing in Paris? This is what you wrote upon 30 May 2011, 'SUARAM STARTS LEGAL FUND TO PROBE SUBMARINE COMMISSIONS IN FRENCH COURTS':
"Unlike a British (and Malaysian) system, a French inquisitorial system has an examining or questioning judge. The examining decider can conduct investigations in to critical crimes or complex enquiries. As members of a judiciary, they have been independent of a executive branch. The decider questions witnesses, interrogates suspects, as great as orders searches or alternative investigations. The examining judge's goal is to gather facts, as great as as such their duty is to demeanour for all a evidence. Both a prosecution as great as a defence might request a decider to action as great as might interest a judge's decisions before an appellate court.
"SUARAM's ultimate application, once authorized by a court, would allow it to turn party to a enquiry as great as have official entrance to each component of a enquiry, together with entrance to a justification which allegedly links DCNS to a arising of commissions to supervision officials. The box is still during a enquiry phase as great as a brand new duplicate is to ascent it to a "instruction phase" where an inquisitive decider would be appointed."
More recently, after you had been interviewed by a questioning decider in a Pa! ris Trib unal de Grande Instance, you wrote 'THE PARIS PAPERS ON THE SCORPENE SCANDAL - THE MALAYSIAN GOVERNMENT MUST TELL US ABOUT THE ROLE OF TERASASI' upon 5 May 2012:
"Since SUARAM lodged its censure with a French courts for a judicial review of a Scorpene stipulate in November 2009, a French law has positively been busy with their investigations. They have interviewed officials in a French state company, DCN as great as related companies such as Thales as great as officials in a French method of defence. They have looked in to bank vaults as great as scrutinized contracts, memoranda of understanding, memoranda of intent, invoices, bank accounts of assorted people together with Abdul Razak Baginda. There have been additionally a little rsther than telling inner confidential reports of DCN as great as a French method of defence"
At no point in my articles did you contend which you had reached a hearing theatre when criminal charges can be pulpy opposite any officials. This will be a privilege of a questioning judges, Roger Le Loire as great as Serge Tournaire. The turn doctors in a BN-controlled mainstream press should take note.
SUARAM BORN OUT OF BN VINDICTIVENESS AND REPRESSION
We crop up to have come full circle. Twenty 3 years ago, as a outcome of a vengeful as great as odious 'Operation Lalang', multiform tellurian rights activists together with myself formed SUARAM. There was a dire need for such a tellurian rights classification which would not usually urge tellurian rights in Malaysia though additionally coordinate alternative organisations in polite multitude to fight corruption, misapplication as great as repression.
Twenty 3 years later, a achievements have been evident. We have between others,
-Established a tellurian rights centre for victims of tellurian rights abuse as great as their families;
-Established an present general "Urgent Appeal" hotline in a eventu! ality of any tellurian rights violation;
-Published a Human Rights Annual Report of Malaysia each year given 1998;
-Nurtured immature tellurian rights activists;
-Provided tellurian rights preparation as great as training;
-Initiated coalitions between polite multitude to urge communities which have been victims of corporate greed as great as state collusion as great as to foster approved initiatives;
THE SCORPENE HAS TOUCHED A RAW NERVE
It is clear to all which it is SUARAM's duplicate to a Paris courts to enquire in to suspected crime in a Scorpene bargain which has led to a BN supervision going berserk as great as making furious allegations opposite a organization.
At this inquiry stage, according to a Paris Papers a commissions as great as dividends for a Scorpene bargain crop up to have been funneled by dual companies, Terasasi as great as Perimekar, both owned by Abdul Razak Baginda. Baginda's wife, Mazlinda, is a executive in Perimekar while his father is additionally a executive in Terasasi. Malaysians have listened about Perimekar as great as its "coordinating service" in a submarines deal. But so distant there has been no mention of Terasasi. The BN supervision has still not told a Malaysian public as great as Parliament a expect role of Terasasi in this Scorpene deal.
From a Paris Papers, you know which during slightest 32 million euros (RM144 million) were paid by Thales International (Thint) Middle East to Terasasi. There is an check by Terasasi dated 1.10.2000 for 100,000 euros. There is additionally an check from Terasasi to Thint Asia, dated 28.8.2004 for 359,450 euros (RM1.44 million) with a hand-written note observant : "Razak wants it in a hurry."
Given which a Paris investigations have supposing Malaysian officials with so many leads, a single would have expected them to action opposite a culprits, though as in APCET, it is a great guys wh! ich have been hounded as great as dealt with.
THANKS BN FOR HELPING SUARAM'S LOCAL FUNDRAISING
The china lining in this pale hullaballoo is which Malaysians have been during final appreciating a work finished by SUARAM in fortifying tellurian rights as great as a interests of Malaysian taxation payers. Since a recent unfortunate assault by a BN supervision opposite SUARAM by a make use of as great as perversion of Malaysian approved institutions together with a polite service, Malaysians of all communities have been inspired to donate funds to SUARAM in expression of their heart-warming support.
Thus, for assisting SUARAM to comprehend an objective which you have loving given you initial started 23 years ago, namely, to be locally funded, you would like to give a grudging high regard to a BN government!
The origination of a colourful polite multitude requires some-more than just divine pronouncements! Enjoying a incomparable approved space than what you have gifted these 55 years is a dream of many Malaysians. The BN supervision might come during us with threats of fines as great as detentions though as Terence McSweeney, Lord Mayor of Cork told his oppressors in 1920:
"It is not those who can inflict a many -
But those which can suffer a many who will conquer
Those whose faith is strong
Will continue to a finish in triumph."

PANAS BERAPI! SUKARNYA AZMIN ALI MENJATUHKAN FAEKAH! KENAPA?

Apabila Saifuddin Nasution, Setiausaha Agung PKR mengesahkan bahawa PKR tidak akan mengambil sebarang tindakan terhadap Faekah Hussin, SETPOL Khalid Ibrahim yang telah mengkritik Azmin Ali yang sebelum itu menyatakan bahawa Khalid Ibrahim tidak layak menjadi Menteri Besar Selangor, banyak persoalan mulai timbul, khususnya tentang keberadaan Azmin Ali dalam PKR itu sendiri.

Bayangkanlah bagaimana Faekah Hussin telah diserang dengan begitu hebat oleh Pengarah Pilihanraya PKR Selangor, Borhan Aman Shah telah menyatakan bahawa Faekah perlu disingkirkan dari PKR serta-merta kerana membuat kenyataan mengkritik Azmin Ali secara terbuka, manakala Ketua Wanita PKR, Zuraida Kamaruddin juga turut mengambil bahagian menyerang Faekah Hussin yang telah menyifatkan Azmin Ali sebagai seorang ahli politik yang tidak bijak.

Akhirnya, setelah pelbagai serangan dibuat, Faekah Hussin akhirnya bebas dan tiada sebarang tindakan disiplin terhadapnya.

Dan ramai yang tahu bagaimana Azmin Ali tersangat berang apabila Faekah Hussin terlepas dan bebas buat kesekian kalinya.

Azmin-Faekah-Khalid menunjukkan pertembungan dua kuasa besar dalam PKR. Khalid-Faekah diketahui mendapat sokongan yang sepenuhnya daripada Presiden PKR, Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, manakala Azmin pula mendapat sokongan daripada Anwar Ibrahim.

Azmin Ali sudah lama mahukan PKR memecat Faekah Hussin. Bagaimanapun, Anwar Ibrahim enggan mengambil tindakan penuh berisiko itu. Ini bukanlah disebabkan Anwar Ibrahim mempunyai hubungan cinta atau skandal terlarang dengan Faekah Hussin. Bahkan antara Azmin dan Faekah, Anwar seringkali mengambil prinsip menyebelahi Azmin pada sepanjang masa.

Ini adalah kerana, penyingkiran Faekah Hussin akan menyebabkan seluruh org! anisasi PKR akan tumbang dan hancur, apatah lagi sekarang ini pun, PKR sudah mulai berpecah-pecah dan berpuak-puak.

Sebelum ini, konco-konco Azmin telah cuba melakukan pembunuhan karektor terhadap Faekah Hussin. Untuk menjatuhkan dan melupuskan Khalid Ibrahim, perkara terbesar yang perlu dilakukan oleh konco-konco Azmin Ali ialah menjadikan Khalid Ibrahim sebagai kera sumbang. Caranya ialah, menghapuskan Faekah Hussin yang bersekutu dengan Wan Azizah dan Nurul Izzah.

Joseph Anton: A Memoir, by Salman Rushdie by Donna Rifkind (10-12-12)

October 16, 2012

NY Times: On Salman Rushdie's Joseph Anton

A Fictional Character

'Joseph Anton: A Memoir,' by Salman Rushdie

by Donna Rifkind (10-12-12)

Salman Rushdie's discourse is most books in the single book. It's the personal story which takes place during the core of an international crisis: the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's 1989 denunciation of the author's fourth novel, "The Satanic Verses," as the work of heresy opposite Islam, as good as his call for Rushdie's death.

It's the mural of the artist as the immature male which describes his influences, obsessions as good as ambitions as good as his rise in the edition world. It's the record of his relocation from Bombay to London to New York, where he staid in 2000. It's an intimate tale of fathers as good as sons, of the beginnings as good as ends of marriages, of friendships as good as betrayals.

At the same time, "Joseph Anton" is the large-scale philharmonic of political as good as informative conflicts during an era in which, Rushdie writes, "incompatible realities often collided with the single another." The genocide decree, or fatwa, would come to be seen by the little as an early signal of the clash of absolutes which would lead up to 9/11 as good as in to our tinderbox benefaction of the continuing onslaught between eremite idea in the immutable word of God upon the single palm as good as secular faith in the unconditional right of giveaway speech upon the other.

One unifying thesis which emerges from this multilayered account is the judgmen! t of moo dy yet here which word assumes the stand in identity. Flight from the fatwa meant the "fretful, scuttling existence" in which the author, the 41-year-old British citizen, deserted his home in the London area of Islington as good as dashed from the single protected residence to an additional around the United Kingdom. While Rushdie located as good as paid for these dozens of hide-outs himself, the British supervision provided him with nine years of round-the-clock protection by the "A" Squad of the Special Branch of the Metropolitan Police, who in turn answered to Britain's intelligence services.

If moody meant forced departure, for Rushdie it additionally meant an insistence upon certain freedoms. Most critically, he would not give up his well review life, his flights of fancy. Battling basin as good as writer's block, he managed during this time to write the vital novel, "The Moor's Last Sigh," along with the desirable children's book called "Haroun as good as the Sea of Stories," during his immature son's insistence. He collected the volume of reduced novella ("East, West") as good as an additional of essays ("Imaginary Homelands"). He wrote book reviews, poems as good as op-ed essays. Whether vast or small, each completed piece of essay felt, to him, similar to "victory over the forces of darkness."

"Who shall have carry out over the story? Who has, who should have, the energy not only to discuss it the stories with which, as good as within which, we all lived, though additionally to contend in what manner those stories may be told?" Rushdie is right to pose the conflict over "The Satanic Verses" as the subject not of ideology though of energy as good as control. And he is right to claim his own story after most degrading years of surrendering which story to other people, most of whom remade it for their own purposes.

But the subject of carry out is additionally the wily issue in Rushdie's own writing. His novels have been hulk swift contraptions, packaged to capacity! , hurtli ng opposite time as good as space, "pitting levity opposite gravity," as he describes the single of his airborne protagonists during the beginning of "The Satanic Verses."

At their best, Rushdie's talented machines attain lift as good as remain thrillingly aloft. At their worst, their centers cannot hold, as good as they spin in to pieces. In "Joseph Anton," which Rushdie has stoical very much similar to the novel, both these scenarios come to pass. There have been sections where the account soars, as good as more than the few in which it plummets.

One of the memoir's novelistic approaches is the perspective, which shifts from the autobiographical "I" to "he." It's not as mannered the choice as it sounds in the account consumed, as much of Rushdie's essay is, with the multiplicity of identity. "He was the new self now," he realized after headlines of the fatwa reached him.

In actuality he split in to several selves: not only the Salman his friends as good as family knew though additionally the "Rushdie" reviled by screaming demonstrators in England as good as abroad, "an effigy, an absence, something less than human"; as good as reproached, too, by most unpleasant compatriots in the Western press.

The sense of fracture was heightened when the Police insisted he invent an alias so he could write checks without being identified. He came up with "Joseph Anton," the initial names of dual the one preferred writers, Conrad as good as Chekhov. Not mislaid upon him was the peculiarity which the male who invented characters for the vital had right away "turned himself in to the arrange of fictional impression as well."

In early sections among the most appropriate in the book the author reveals which his tangible surname was itself an invention. His father, the nonpracticing Muslim, altered his "fine old Delhi" name to Rushdie in loyalty to Ibn Rushd, the 12th-century Spanish-Arab polymath who wrote commentaries upon the works of Aristotle as good as done the forceful case! , 800 ye ars before the conflict over "The Satanic Verses," for common sense over Islamic literalism.

Yet if his father's "fearless skepticism" was his present to immature Salman as good as his 3 sisters, the dire home sourroundings was his curse, for Anis Rushdie was so wrathful an alcoholic which Salman's mother certified she survived the marriage by building the "forgettery" instead of the memory. In 1961, 13-year-old Salman was only as good peaceful to leave his hometown, Bombay, for boarding school in England, where he was waste as good as unpopular, as good as upon to Cambridge, where, as the story student, he initial learned about the "satanic verses," the set of lines expunged from the Koran.

These interesting coming-of-age passages have been followed by similarly enchanting recollections of Rushdie's London jobs as an advertising copywriter, where he grown his distinctive written bounciness. Those jingly goods as good as aphorisms cocktail up in the discourse as good ("Life was lived brazen though was judged in reverse").

And he vividly conveys the exhilaration he felt in the mid-1970s whilst forgetful up his initial big success, "Midnight's Children," scene by scene, anticipating the tools as good as tone to discuss it his story: "India was not cool. It was hot. It was hot as good as packed as good as vulgar as good as loud as good as it indispensable the language to compare which as good as he would try to find which language." Rushdie additionally comes opposite as tenderly clinging to his dual sons, Zafar as good as Milan, as good as grateful to most of the particular military officers who guaranteed his as good as his family's reserve for scarcely the decade.

If "Joseph Anton" builds up the lot of reader-friendly collateral in these sections, it exhausts which collateral rather as good freely as the story continues. While the initial days of the fatwa unfold grippingly, there's the high dump in movement as the years drag on. Not even as talented the bard as R! ushdie c an equivocate essay about tedium without apropos tedious himself. Clichs abound: "The residence was pleasing though it felt similar to the gilded cage"; "What was he," he wonders whilst contemplating moving to America after his distress is over, "but the huddled mass emotional to inhale free?"

As which last selection suggests, Rushdie shows the cheerful willingness throughout the discourse to show off his less than dignified side. These scenes can be bleakly funny: when the military convince him to wear the wig to equivocate approval in public, he tries it out upon Sloane Street in London as good as is immediately the core of amused attention. "Look," he hears the male say, "there's which illegitimate Rushdie in the wig." But there have been occasions in which his goofiness grates as good as creates an worried cacophony in what is, after all, the sobering account of state-sponsored terrorism which resulted in the murder of Rushdie's Japanese translator as good as near-fatal attacks upon his Italian translator as good as Norwegian publisher.

It's of march lots of fun to review of the author's robust bedazzlement during connecting with all kinds of celebrities, from Playboy bunnies to Heads of state, as good as in his access, post-fatwa, to each arrange of party. ("Willie Nelson was there! And Matthew Modine!") It's fun additionally to describe poor sideline judgments during the most instances of score-settling here (particularly unflattering have been Rushdie's portrayals of his ex-wives Marianne Wiggins as good as Padma Lakshmi; his publishers during Penguin as good as Random House; as good as the former New Yorker editor Robert Gottlieb).

Are readers likely to recollect mostly these luscious bits, as good as if so, how will which affect Rushdie's well review legacy? "It was as the bard which he longed for to be defended, as the bard which he longed for to defend himself," he eloquently states. But with "Joseph Anton," is he risking apropos the kind of bard whose books have been n! ot so mu ch review as skimmed for their potential provocations the barbarism he's fought opposite for scarcely the quarter-century? Read all of "Joseph Anton," then, for the lessons in how books have been used, as good as whether they matter.

Donna Rifkind is essay the book about the screenwriter Salka Viertel as good as her Hollywood migr salon.

A version of this review appeared in print upon Oct 14, 2012, upon page BR10 of the Sunday Book Review with the headline: A Fictional Character.

Human rights situation in Malaysia: One word - SAD!


Human rights incident in M'sia: One word - SAD!
Based upon a annual reports rebuilt by Suhakam, Suaram as great as a US Department of State as great as information available from journal reports, a tellurian rights incident does not crop up to be mending in Malaysia. In a little ways it has deteriorated generally in apply oneself of domestic as great as polite rights.
According to Suaram, a state of tellurian rights in 2011 was worse than in 2010. Twenty-seven people were detained though trial in 2011. The series was twenty-five in 2010. There were twenty-five cases of custodial deaths in 2011 compared to eighteen in 2010.
Overcrowding in prisons as great as places of apprehension continue to persist. In 2010, a country's 31 prisons reason about 38,387 prisoners written to reason about 32,600. In August 2010, a secretary-general of a Ministry of Home Affairs acknowledged deficiencies in apprehension centres as great as their disaster to encounter ubiquitous standards.
By August 2011 RELA membership reached 2,690,000. There is great regard which they have been not formally lerned as great as gifted to perform their duties in a veteran manner often heading to tellurian rights violations of people they have been supposed to protect.
Religious freedom concerns
Article 121(1A) of a Federal Constitution, which reads "The courts referred to in clause 1 (i.e. a two High Courts of Malaya as great as Sabah as great as Sarawak as great as a inferior courts provided by sovereign law) shall have no office in apply oneself of any matter inside of a office of a syariah courts."
The Article does n! ot menti on what is inside of a office of a syariah courts. It additionally does not mention which a syariah courts have been towering to a same standing as a polite High Court. Before Article 121(1A) came in to existence a decisions of a syariah courts could be reviewed by a polite High Courts. Problems as gifted right away did not arise.
Now we see non-Muslims being left in a incident with no legal remedy. Reference is right away being made to Malaysia as an Islamic state though this is not provided for in a constitution. Unusually strict conditions have been imposed upon office building plans for non-Muslim places of worship. More often than not capitulation takes a prolonged time to be issued.
In Sabah, a capitulation for a building a whole of a mazu statue was withdrawn after it was approved by a approving management as great as a building a whole was already in an advanced stage. It was not even a place of worship.
Suhakam reports
Suhakam has right away rebuilt as great as submitted to Parliament 11 annual reports though so far nothing has been debated in Parliament. This is indicative of a priority given to a graduation as great as insurance of tellurian rights by a government.
Political rights
During a final 3 to 4 years there have been indications which people generally have been showing larger interest as great as recognition of their domestic as great as polite rights. This being a case, they have been right away some-more noisy than ever before to in their bid to prevent a authorities from denying them of their rights.
The Bersih 3 convene attracted a multi-racial crowd of about 250,000 people upon Apr 28, 2012. Bersih 3 represents a polite society organization which promotes clean, free as great as fair elections. It is thus most surprising which a supervision saw it fit to acknowledgement it as an bootleg organisation. A supervision which subsc! ribes to as great as practises great governance would surely await any move towards such noble objectives unless, of course, a survival of a supervision depends upon deceits as great as cheating during elections.
What Bersih 3 stands for represents universal simple democratic values as great as attributes. Some upon a supervision side credit it of being infiltrated by communists though upon condition which hard evidence, identifying them or clarifying their understanding of communists. If communists have been bad, why is a supervision carrying diplomatic relations with comrade countries? Others claim which Bersih 3 is trying to overpower a democratically inaugurated supervision by force though again though upon condition which any evidence. In any case, how could it be possible when all they had were H2O bottles as great as confronting a strong police force armed to a teeth.
A Peaceful Assembly Act was fast approved by Parliament. Under this Act there is no prerequisite to obtain police permit before to holding a pacific assembly. However it imposes really difficult conditions as great as as expected a people were really unfortunate as great as showed copiousness of reservations. Some of a conditions include street protests being disallowed for non-Malaysians as great as those next fifteen years of age. If we have been next 21 years of age we have been not authorised to organize a protest.
Electoral roll
As a 13th ubiquitous choosing draws near, a single of a most critical tasks during hand is a spring cleaning of a electoral rolls. This charge could be farmed out to a formally qualified, gifted as great as independent body. It is common believe which a electoral roll is tainted. This has been acknowledged by a High Court decider in a box of a Likas state chair of Datuk Yong Teck Lee. The High Court systematic Yong to vacate his seat, ruling which he won it in 1999 with a help of phantom voters. The decider found out which a 19! 98 elect oral roll for a subdivision was bootleg as great as a choosing reason in Mar 1999 was null as great as void. The decider serve celebrated which it was only a tip of a iceberg. This stirred Parliament to rectify a Election Act, whereby a electoral roll once gazetted cannot be challenged in any justice of law. This is not right as great as bad law.
Ratification of core tellurian rights instruments
To date, Malaysia has not sealed as great as ratified a following core ubiquitous tellurian rights instruments:
The International Covenant upon Civil as great as Political Rights (ICCPR);
The International Covenant upon Social, Economic as great as Cultural Rights (ICSECR);
The Convention opposite Torture as great as other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment;
The International Convention of a Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination.
Some certain tellurian rights developments
There have been a little certain developments. On November 24, 2011 a Emergency Proclamations were revoked. The ISA was repealed. Unfortunately it was transposed by a Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 which most feel is only as draconian. Human rights activists feel which a ISA should not have been transposed as there have been enough laws available to prosecute all types of offences.
National tellurian rights movement plan
Soon after a pregnancy of Suhakam in 2000, it recommended, in 2001, to a supervision which it should rise as great as delineate a National Human Rights Action Plan (NHRAP). After some-more than 10 years a supervision finally agreed. Such a plan will help to urge as great as make firm a graduation as great as insurance of tellurian rights by placing tellurian rights in a correct context of open policy. It is hoped which discerning movement will be expedited towards a realization of a NH! RAP.
Land rights of indigenous peoples (IP)
Since Suhakam became operational upon Apr 24, 2000 it has been reception most complaints in a form of letters, memorandum as great as in persons related to land issues from a Orang Asli as great as Orang Asal of Sabah as great as Sarawak. As a problems did not show any indication of being resolved any time soon, Suhakam decided for a first time to reason a inhabitant exploration in to a land rights of a IP of Malaysia.
More than 6,500 IP attended a consultation practice reason throughout a country. A sum of 892 statements were recorded as great as 43 open submissions were received. Suhakam in right away in a routine of finalising a inform which includes recommendations to a relevant authorities.
The IP of Sabah as great as Sarawak continue to be marginalised as great as knowledge being displaced from their normal territories. When a land which they have been living for generations turn accessible to modern infrastructure such as roads, H2O as great as electricity supply their land naturally turn commercially attractive. That is a time when their existence is really threatened. When a original land occupiers apply for a land, some-more often than not they do not get any response or if they do it will be a single of rejection. Very often a same piece of land is alienated to others who have better influence as great as tie with people in position of authority.
Another difficulty of IP is customarily accused by a authorities of encroaching upon timberland reserves. Some have had their houses burnt by enforcement personnel. Many IP claim they were there before to a area was gazetted as timberland reserve.
The infancy of IP in Sabah as great as Sarawak still live in a farming areas, often surviving as keep farmers. It is additionally in a farming areas where poverty is rampant as great as access to educational, medical as great as health facilities is possibly li! mited or non-existent.
There is another really critical cause which affects Sabah especially, as great as which is a unusually large race of bootleg immigrants who have right away outnumbered Malaysians of Sabah origin. They have been fast changing a social, economic, cultural as great as domestic landscape of a state. The UNDP as great as a World Bank have described Sabah as a poorest state in a nation as great as which during least 50 per cent of a sum series of bad people in a nation have been in Sabah. That is a bottom line. No volume of adjectives could cover such sad state of affairs.
* Presented as submit by a Association for a Promotion of Human Rights (Proham) to a UN Human Rights as great as Development Theme Group as NGO submit for a UPR process. The inform was adopted by Proham members during the assembly reason upon September 29, 2012
* Tan Sri Simon Sipaun is a authority of Proham.
