I can still remember how in effect Mat Sabu was. He greeted a crowd. Most importantly, he greeted a armed forces as well as military personnel surrounding a area sent to keep a surveillance upon a rally. He asked them how much they were paid as well as whether they have to compensate interest for their housing as well as automobile loans. Then he told them which NFC took a RM250 million "loan" with no interest as well as need not compensate behind a government. He afterwards asked them was which fair. He afterwards told them not to risk their lives protecting people similar to that.
Th! is is a really important indicate which you need to assimilate as well as share with associate Malaysians. The disagreeable BN supervision will resort to a 3Rs (Race, Religion, Rulers) to divide as well as rule. It worked in 1969 when May 13th happened due to a racial riot. It worked in 1999 when most Chinese abandoned a opposition due to MCA's Islamic state scare tactics.
Now, they are using a rulers to come after us. See Quantity Surveyor, Ahmad Abd Jalil's box in Johor. See Nurul Izzah, how a single ruler as well as a single prince have come out to disapprove Nurul Izzah. you am certain you can still remember what Madey pronounced during a Rulers' confrontation in 1993. Here is a little excerpts :http://malaysiansmustknowthetruth.blogspot.com/2012/08/heres-what-dr-m-said-about-rulers-in-93.html. They were definitely seditious.
The disagreeable BN might even resort to an additional evil devise to cause a demonstration of a little sort in a event they remove a next general elections. Fear not! We outnumber them. We are being ruled by a minority, i.e. tiny group of elites in "Pakatan Rakyat" (as MCA as well as MIC are all yesmen). We can equivocate this possibility if you can stand joined to fig! ht as we ll as oppose them. Makkal Sakti! People's Power!

Salam Maal Hijrah 1434H...
wasalam
The following is a second of a two-part speak with former de facto law minister as well as ex-Parti Kita chief Zaid Ibrahim.Part one
Pakatan has positioned itself as a 'moderate' voice of Islam. As a strategic move, do we consider it would be improved to remain wordless or clearly state positions even though it might result in blowback from a nonconformist elements, namely a propaganda mouthpiece as well as politicians of Umno?
Whether Pakatan is a moderate voice, we have to wait as well as see. The exam is not either they concede non-Muslims sufficient freedom; that's easy, though either they will be "moderate" to Muslims.
I regularly hold it's improved to state a right positions clearly as well as unambiguously upon core delicate issues even if it equates to we have to "lose" a litt! le await in a beginning. Politics is not usually winning; though about we do a right thing. Long-term goals have been equally important.
What do we consider of (PKR vice-president) Nurul (Izzah Anwar)'s comments upon Islam as well as what have been your own views upon a subject (of compulsion as well as Malay identity)?
Islam in Malaysia will not concede a Malay to be a non-Muslim. Some Islamic scholars however contend that there is no compulsion in a religion. But scholars have no shift in Malaysia; usually religious bureaucrats.
Nurul is dauntless to demonstrate an op! inion; though in Malaysia, Muslims have no right to an perspective upon their own religion. They can be punished. Only a state can emanate opinions.
Do we hold that Islam has intruded in to a public sphere at a responsibility of democratic principles?
It's not Islam that has intruded in to public sphere. It is a proponent of tyranny as well as fascist leaders that have used sacrament to carry out a apparatus of a state. Democracy as well as a order of law have been involved when we concede such leaders to go upon to rule.
Communal issues have been vital issues of a domestic routine here; do we consider that Pakatan has finished sufficient to shift this paradigm?
Pakatan plan is pure - do not speak too most about difficult issues; let's get to energy first. So that's how it will be. Whilst that is not a proceed we would take, we recognise that governing body need most opposite approaches to succeed.
I usually hope that when they get to power; they will not forget that most hard decisions have to be made. If they afterwards pronounced we will wait to win a second tenure before we do! them; a fterwards we contend let's remove them.
So yes, they have not come up with concrete plans to shift a domestic model of a country.
Is there a disproportion in between a secular governing body of BN as well as Pakatan?
Racial governing body in BN is pure as well as obvious led by Umno, whereas secular governing body in Pakatan have been more diffused as well as somewhat easeful by sacrament as well as meritocracy.
What is your perspective upon certain movement programmes as well as do we consider it nurtures a enlightenment of entitlement?
Affirmative programmes delicately structured as well as guided by pure ideology as well as good governance can be a utilitarian tool to assistance a poor as well as a marginalised community.
The complaint we have is that a Malays no longer see certain policie! s as priv! ileges to be given upon a need basis; though as their rights. Which Malay leaders we have right away who will dare to explain to them otherwise?
Do we consider that certain movement programmes contributed to a ghettoisation of a public as well as in isolation sectors along secular lines?
The complaint we have is a inability of a little leaders to see a long-term attribution effects of discrimination. They wish present gratification as well as await as well as so they tell a Malays they have special rights. When we take that path, we afterwards will not see we have been putting in use discrimination.
Only enlightened Malay leaders can tell a disproportion in between outright taste as well as certain await programmes. The Chinese afterwards retaliate as well as would gang up as well as await each other, thereby creation a situation worse.
It's u! sually a Indians as well as alternative locals who have been left alone; desolate as well as poor.
A recent consult highlighted a secular taste practices of a in isolation sector. Do we consider that it is a role of supervision by legislation to even a personification field in a in isolation sector?
Discrimination in a workplace is prevalent in a country. It's to be expected that when a Malay-led supervision practices taste in a public service, there will be a identical reply in a Chinese-dominated in isolation sector.
A responsible supervision must take all stairs to finish discrimination; otherwise, Malaysia will never achieve a true potential. It might even boar a see! ds of fut! ure instability. Legislation is required for this purpose.
What is a a single piece of legislation that is desperately indispensable in Malaysia?
If there is a single piece of legislation we indispensable most, it's a Freedom of Information Act. When governments can work under privacy as they do now, crime as well as abuse of energy will continue, in any case who comes to power.
It's usually when a leaders know a rakyat can see what they have been we do will things improve.
How does a initiate domestic celebration similar to Kita tarry in a celebrity driven domestic scene when a star captivate has stepped down from a presidency?
Kita is a new party. Its survival similar to all alternative domestic parties depends upon a domestic beliefs. The celebration is structured differently. We don't have a president. We have a celebration chief who can be anyone of a twenty-five central cabinet members.
I have explained that we wish to be spared a charge of managing a organisation as well ! as focus more upon a development of domestic ideas. we am not stepping down, usually we do opposite things.
Writer's epilogue
That aged proverb that we judge a man by his actions not words is indictment as well as praise for a politician similar to Zaid. Against Umno, he stranded to his ideology when it mattered as well as suffered a consequences for his action, that puts him in a joining of those Pakatan leaders who have finished a same.
However, he also engaged in an unnecessary bloodletting with his form! er comrad! es that gave ammunition to a current system of administration in a vendetta against any who mount in a way. The real question is not either Zaid has burnt his bridges though either he will be authorised to set up newones.-S Thayaparan,malaysiakini

PANAS BERAPI! Portal Pakatan Rakyat Gelar Peneroka Felda Lembu
Rupanya kejayaan Himpunan Generasi Baharu Felda yang selesai dilangsungkan di UiTM Shah Alam akhir minggu lalu, tidak hanya mengundang perasaan megah generasi kedua Felda tapi ia juga menyebabkan ada pihak yang tidak senang duduk kehadiran besar di acara tersebut.
Dianggarkan kira-kira 12,000 orang generasi muda dan anak peneroka Felda dari seluruh negara termasuk Sabah hadir ke majlis tersebut yang turut melibatkan pengumuman rasmi pembahagian durian runtuh fasa ketiga oleh Perdana Menteri, Dato' Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak.
Durian runtuh bernilai RM563 juta bagi fasa ketiga itu adalah imbuhan dari hasil kejayaan penyenaraian FGVH di Bursa Saham yang mana setiap keluarga peneroka bakal mendapat RM5000.00 untuk dibahagi samarata antara anak-anak peneroka.
Mungkin menyedari kejayaan acara itu bakal memberi impak besar kepada peningkatan ketara sokongan rakyat khususnya warga Felda kepada Barisan Nasional (BN), maka portal suarapakatanrakyat.com telah mmenghina peneroka Felda sebagai bodoh seperti lembu.
Penulis portal itu yang cenderung mendewakan Anwar Ibrahim sebagai pemimpin pale suci berkata demikian setelah menerima bulat-bulat dakwaan AJK PAS Pusat yang menuduh pemberian wang durian runtuh RM5,000.00 telah menyebabkan ramai anak peneroka bergaduh adik beradik berebutkan pembahagian wang tersebut.
Sedangkan sekalipun jika dakwaan oleh Pengerusi ANAK, NGO proksi kepada PAS itu adalah benar, namun penulis portal itu tidak sepatutnya menyamakan peneroka Felda mahupun generasi mudanya dengan kebodohan seekor lembu.
Apa hak penulis pro PR merendah-rendahkan taraf pemikiran generasi baharu Felda? Adakah menjadi kesalahan untuk generasi baharu peneroka felda menerima imbuhan durian runtuh itu, sedangkan mereka berhak menerimanya berikutan sokongan mereka kepada usaha penyenaraian FGVH di BSKL.
Portal suarapakatanrakyat.com jelas sekali tidak mengambil iktibar disebalik keterlanju! rannya s ebelum ini yang menulis artikel mempertikaikan tarian tradisi Sumanzau yang tampak jelas menghina orang Sabah.
Bila rakyat Sabah bangkit menyuarakan kemarahan, pandai pula si penulis berdolak dalik mencipta alasan untuk menegakkan benang basah sehinggalah bila keadaan semakin tak terkawal, barulah portal itu menarik balik artikel penghinaan selepas mendapat nasihat pemimpin-pemimpin PR.
Sekarang penulis suarapakatanrakyat.com mengulangi perangai sama, kali ini menghina warga Felda yang disamatarafkan dengan lembu pula.
Sama saja perangai dan sikapnya seperti Naib Presiden PKR, Nurul Izzah yang tidak pernah terdetik di fikiran untuk mengambil pengajaran dari kelemahan dan kesilapan sebelumnya.
Tahun lalu Nurul Izzah telah mempromosikan Bangkung Christmas Bazzar yang menyediakan minuman keras dan nyanyian keagamaan Kriastian, tahun ini pula diulangi lagi kesilapannya dengan mencetuskan kontroversi berkaitan akidah orang Melayu Islam pula.
Dek kerana kuasa, penghinaan terhadap kelompok lain dihalalkan dan akidah agama digadai dijual sesuka hati, ia satu gambaran jelas betapa terdesaknya PR dalam usaha mereka untuk merampas kuasa demi memuaskan nafsu puak mereka.
Bila sudah beginilah pembawaan sikap penyokong dan pemimpin PR, usahlah berangan-angan untuk memerintah negara ini. Rakyat Malaysia tidak kerugian pun menolak kehadiran PR yang ternyata hanya banyak mencetuskan kontroversi dan kecelaruan berbanding manfaat untuk rakyat.

Tales of the Two Halves; One Lives the Other Dies.
En route to Mersing, we travelled by Air Hitam. Then upon to Keluang , passing by Kesang, Felda Nittar as well as finally making it to Mersing. we upheld by towns as well as centers of commerce.
Passing by these areas, we see firsthand a failure of UMNO policies. we was amazed to see a growth or Air Hitam which a reduced whilst ago was important perhaps as a locale offered vases as well as potteries. Or usually as an intersection locale for people going to Kluang, Johor Bharu or Batu Pahat.
Kluang is a bustling blurb town. You have many factories producing clay formed industries, flooring tiles as well as a maker of pampers- Kimberley Clark. You see a couple of palm oil mills which routine oil for planters around a area. we did not have time regrettably, to condescend a important Tong Fong Coffee Shop in Kluang.
You pass by Kesang as well as a sight along a categorical highway is deceiving. The locale as well as blurb centers have been located off a categorical trunk road. Finally we arrive in Mersing a smallish locale with character. The blurb vibrancy is as usual, supposing for by Malaysian Chinese.
Traveling by a towns, stopping by briefly, we unexpected realized which we have usually upheld by testaments upon a failure of a UMNO/BN government. They unprotected a fallacies boasted by a right away informed billboards proclaiming UMNO's 55 years of promises fulfilled. The policies have usually over a guarantee to have Malays beggars in their own country.
What do a towns of Air Hitam, Keluang as well as Mersing as well as even Kesang show me? They show indicators of a arrogance of a tellurian spirit. Yet, these indicators of tellurian enrichment as well as craving additionally discuss it me which after 55 years of UMNO rule, we have a territory of a Malaysian section, substantially 95% of them, who do not rely upon UMNO for their living. They have b! een driv en by their shortcoming in determining their destiny instead of allowing others to conclude as well as establish their future. They accept as well as blending to a giveaway market system. Despite that, they can as well as have prospered as well as will soon enjoy more democracy if democracy is tangible in a context of leisure to exercise choices. They can choose NOT to elect BN. which is a wonderful sense of true freedom.
On a flip side, we have a territory of a Malaysian population where 95% is done dependent upon UMNO's philanthropy as well as benefaction. One territory of a population is independent, depending upon a own efforts as well as craving to allege in life; a alternative is dependent as well as deferential by a domestic masters. The alternative is full of optimism as well as assured in a brazen march, a alternative waits to be ordered as well as deferential by pessimism as well as bigotry.
How is possible, for people vital in a same country, enjoying a same climate, vital off a same soil, arrangement such sheer differences.
The disproportion to me is amply explained by a actuality which one apportionment of a population adopts as well as adapts to a giveaway market; a alternative adopts a central authority economy- ordered by UMNO. The one apportionment enjoys a per capita income of RM 1500, a other, RM1000. Even then, 40% of a latter lived underneath an income of RM1500 a month. The majority who scrambled to get a RM500 from a Santa Claus PM have been Malays who have been generally done bad since of a ban policies carried out by UMNO.
The Malays have been a plant to UMNO's objectionable policy of equivalence of outcome. The non-Malays abounding in Mersing, Kluang as well as Air Hitam have been beneficiaries of a equivalence of opportunity- which no one should be prevented by arbitrary obstacles from regulating his capacity to allege his own objectives. They succeeded where supervision division is! slighte st as well as a lesser a interference, a more abounding they become.
Malays upon a alternative palm direct equivalence of outcome. Everyone must finish at a same time in a race. But a Malays forget, direct for equivalence of outcome, gives a permit for bigger as well as bigger supervision as well as of supervision imposed restrictions upon their liberty. And UMNO does not ensure everyone finishes at a same time. It allows a selected couple of to finish ahead. Those who accomplished ahead find their hold up as well as spokesperson in people like Ibrahim Ali; as well as people like Mahathir who laments which after 55 years, Malays have been beggars in their own country. His young kids have been not beggars though. They have been rich over a aptitude because, Mahathir did indeed authority people to enrich his children.

Obama will be seen to be on the right side of history

Obama will be seen to be upon a right side of history
by W Scott Thompson*
THE only reason there was any torment is because a great pollsters intended to confuse. The "17 per cent likelihood" which Barack Obama wouldn't win a Electoral College simply didn't exist.
The 17 critical pollsters knew he had a lock of improved than 1 per cent in each check so they simply combined which up to keep a hopeful jokesters upon a other side off balance. Did we notice which a state-by-state predictions were precisely right?
Now it is true, which I didn't get my landslide as good as supervision will sojourn divided. But look: a new president doesn't come in alone, he brings 3,000 or so with him which have various constitutional or domestic responsibilities to carry out. You want Karl Rove's people or Rahm Emmanuel's? We aren't spending a subsequent year either, with Congress again perplexing to conflict a Obama programme; Obama is simply requesting lessons learned already so his people, who've spent 4 anguishing years, can apply these gains as they pierce ahead, throwing in to a dustbin of story these "theories" of supervision whereby if we have a unequivocally abounding people during a tip feel even some-more comfortable, they'd invest some-more as good as each a single would benefit.
Now apart from a illogicality there's additionally a "how does it look" aspect. It looks flattering awful. What had always done America demeanour good, even to inspire, was precisely which it was never a zero-sum game, until Rove, Dick Cheney, George W. Bush et al detected which they unequivocally could get away with it, not to discuss a destruction of Baghdad.
Now a curious ac! tuality about this campaign is which a Republican nominee arguably couldn't have cared less. An amiable as good as smart guy, he was a initial nominee with no agenda given Franklyn Roosevelt though who for his part had got a single quick in 1932 as good as wrote many of a domestic story for 3 generations.
It looked like Mitt Romney's advisers would see an opening in a middle, as good as would contend "give them a little some-more of which Massachusetts stuff", as good as Romney would contend "sure, sure, because not? If a giveaway give them two."
If his vice-presidential candidate would worry about how this looked, Romney would say, "we're starting to get absolved of Planned Parenthood", which was headlines to a lot of Americans who relied upon it. He suspicion his smile, economic success story, as good as general "hail associate good met" would prevail.
But upon a other side, there was no choice of agenda; there were ways to accomplish a agenda which had been formulated as good as done some-more accurate over 4 years.
The Republicans additionally seemed to rely upon "feel good" factors. Get forward of a President of a United States as good as all would be well. Obama was relying upon thousands of check as good as proprietor trackers, not airy puffs of wind.
Anyone who saw which Obama appurtenance get in to action last Tuesday knew a field-watchers, operative from their own houses, would be down soon to collect up uncertain voters, who wouldn't sojourn uncertain most longer. Obama likes to come in for a crafted kill, which has been suspicion out, concluded upon, as good as afterwards celebrated. It isn't most opposite from a raid which got Osama garbage bin Laden.
There's something else which needs to be celebrated. All those billions which a Koch brothers as good as their kind promised to deliver for a final knock out of liberalism might have found which huge checks didn't have a same effect as mixed tiny donations; they're not even easy to administer.
I ! think Ob ama's initial tenure will be remembered for a clever investiture of a plan as good as a means to carry it out, with maybe a bit of audacity meaningful which a other side wouldn't ever even be able to fool around catch-up. And upon a foreign process side to give "The Donald" a drubbing he deserved, as a only a single there meaningful what was happening upon a precisely opposite side of a world.
Second conditions might be "lame duck" terms, though that's not all they can be. Continuing courteous new programmes, vouchsafing beneficiaries do a pulling for some-more immigration reform, making America see which this is a branch point that's where we are right now: Waiting to knock out Tea Party forces everywhere as good as getting upon with it.
We right away are a multi-ethnic great adult nation led by a male who is bound to be seen as upon a right side of history.

Malaysia needs to step up taxation as good as funding reforms, says IMF Chief
www.themalaysianinsider.com
Malaysia needs a faster overhaul of a taxation as good as funding regimes to means mercantile growth, pronounced Christine Lagarde, Managing Director, The International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Lagarde pronounced in an interview with The Edge which a Malaysian government not usually indispensable to broaden a revenue bottom by introducing a products as good as services taxation (GST) though also indispensable to confine subsidies to a indeed needy as good as eliminate taxation incentives which were unproductive.
"The grant of open resources could also be improved by a streamlining of untargeted subsidies as good as greedy taxation incentives as good as replacing them with targeted assistance to a indeed needy," she told The Edge.
Malaysia's finances have been regarded as between a weakest in Middle East due to a tall debt-to-revenue comparative measure as good as reliance upon inorganic substance to finance a budget. Approximately one-third of sovereign government income is from oil as good as gas alone, as good as usually one-third from taxes paid by companies as good as individuals.
A insignificant 1.7 million out of 12.8 million operative adults paid income taxation final year as good as usually 130,000 companies out of 700,000 paid taxes.The volume of taxes from individuals amounted to only RM14 billion final year while a total from companies came up to about RM40 billion.
Oil as good as gas, meanwhile, contributed about RM60 billion to government coffers. GST is expected to give a Federal Government a wider scope to p! ick up t axes as it is based upon expenditure rsther than than income, to illustrate spreading a taxation weight more evenly.
The Najib Administration has pronounced which a implementation of a GST will not happen until a open had been sufficiently educated upon a brand new taxation system as good as most observers design GST to be introduced after a ubiquitous election.
Lagarde, however, commended a Economic Transformation Programme (ETP), which aims to lift a nation to tall income standing by 2020, though noted which such a goal would require which Malaysia rebalance a manage to buy away from a largely trade oriented manage to buy to a single which was more domestically driven.
She also pronounced which a US indispensable to provide distinctness upon how it would avoid descending off a supposed "fiscal cliff" at a end of this year when spending cuts as good as taxation increases have been scheduled to take place.
Lagarde forecast a expansion of six per cent for a Asian segment next year as good as pronounced which deeper integration as good as good government could set a trail for Asian mercantile care as good as contribute to tellurian growth.

by Ida Lim@www.themalaysianinsider.com
The Selangor supervision currently pronounced it has allocated former MIDA chief, Datuk N. Sadasivan (left), to conduct an eccentric taskforce to study the controversial common ownership plan in Batu Caves, the plan which was authorized by the Barisan Nasional (BN) administration department department in 2007.
Selangor's announcement currently comes dual weeks after the state released the proxy stop-work order upon the Dolomite condominium, tentative the taskforce's findings.
"The State Executive Council currently concluded to appoint former Malaysian Industrial Development Authority (MIDA) Director-General Dato' N. Sadasivan as Chairman of the eccentric cabinet to study the capitulation of the common ownership plan in Batu Caves," Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim pronounced in the matter today.

He pronounced the state supervision would announce the names of the alternative members later. Khalid pronounced he would meet with the cabinet this week to inform them of the state's purpose, adding which the cabinet would also be tasked with studying alternative building the whole projects within the Batu Caves area.
"Among the committee's scope are to re-evaluate all the growth projects which have been finished as well as programmed in Batu Cav! es, as w ell as take into account each aspect including the people's welfare, the Hindu community's interest, environmental safety as well as existent legislation."

Selangor currently also allocated the Norasiah Bee, the Selangor Rural as well as Town Planning Department's Deputy Director, as the secretary of the secretariat to ensure the well-spoken using of the taskforce.
Khalid also criticised Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's promise yesterday to terminate the Dolomite plan if BN manages to win back Selangor, describing it as the pierce to "gain popularity as well as support" instead of elucidate problems.
"This unprofessional pierce by the Prime Minister gives the negative effect upon integrity as well as good governance since any plan cancellation has to be finished according to procedure," Khalid said.
He pronounced the state supervision places priority upon the people's rights as well as interests, adding which it will not "hesitate" to move any parties to justice if they were found to be drifting or had abused their powers.
