Mahathir, a racist and Malay chauvinist - TRUE OR FALSE?

The nation of Malaysia has reached the crossroads after years of suffering much anguish and pain in the hands of being ruled by Barisan Nasional. The extent of anguish and pain that Malaysians have suffered in the hands of BN cannot be fully quantified or assessed as yet. However, what is certain is the way and manner of governing Malaysia since the days of the establishment of the Mahathir regime which has definitely witnessed a major blow and setback for democracy and race relations. The real “pengkhianat Bangsa Melayu”? It is an undeniable fact that while Mahathir governed Malaysia with impunity, he was also guilty of being a racist and a Malay chauvinist. By often calling upon and using the racial card, he caused gullible and unsuspecting Malays and other bumiputras to believe that their common enemy is the non-bumiputras especially the Chinese and Indians. But the blow to his racial ploy was only apparent with the return of globalisation to the fore. When the world decided to go global, Mahathir’s racial ploys backfired and blew up in his face. The Malays were found not to have the competitive edge in being able to compete in a globalised environment as they were rendered weak by being fully dependent on the BN government for assistance and aid. By causing Malays and bumiputras to become soft in their belly, an underclass society actually, it is really Mahathir Mohammad who is truly the “pengkhianat Bangsa Melayu” (the traitor to the Malays), and not Anwar Ibrahim, which Perkasa should take note.

Not ready yet to say goodbye to Anwar

YOURSAY 'Anwar has shown the way, it is now left to us to decide. His fight must not be in vain. Hang in there, sir, Allah is with you.' Anwar mulls 'retirement' if Pakatan loses GE13 your sayGuna Otak Sikit: Anwar Ibrahim, with your leadership, the opposition won five states in the last general election. You and the opposition has shown the country an alternative to BN - a very much better alternative. We thank you for the leadership you have shown so far. If Pakatan does not win the next election, that is because I think the election process is rotten to the core. If that really happens, Malaysia will rot further until more people are mired in poverty and begin to rebel. Then, the costs will be very much higher and I would think that there will be much bloodshed before things can improve. Just look at Syria now. You have done your best and, for that, I thank you.

Nik Aziz ke Parlimen, KJ ganti MB Kelantan?

PILIHAN RAYA Umum Ke-13 negara akan diadakan tidak lama lagi. Mungkin tiga bulan lagi, jika bukan tahun depanlah. Tapi jika dilihat kepada kehangatannya, ia sudah terlalu hampir. Apa pun kita serahkan kepada PM untuk menentukan tarikhnya, kerana kata putus berada di dalam tangannya. Namun begitu secara kasarnya, kempen telah pun berlangsung. Di Selangor di mana saya tinggal, pihak pembangkang telah pun rancak berceramah. Jika pilihan raya berlangsung selepas raya ini, maka Ramadan akan digunakan sepenuhnya untuk bertazkirah, yang sudah tentunya akan condong kepada kempen pilihan raya. Kita semua amat arif, itulah kelebihan yang ada kepada pembangkang khususnya Pas. Mereka akan menggunakan surau dan masjid secara maksimum. Itu pasallah di beberapa masjid di sekitar Selangor sekarang berlaku kecelaruan apabila AJK lama masjid ditukar kepada yang pro-Pas, sehinggakan ada antara kes calon-calon AJK yang di luar daripada kariah masjid itu sendiri pun telah dilantik. Penyusunan dan perancangan calon ini amat penting sekali. Bagi BN, yang akan menjadi underdog kali ini, penentuan itu amat-amat krusial sekali. Silap orang, maka undi akan terjunam. Kepada pembangkang kali ini mereka bukan underdog lagi. Mereka yakin akan menang. Lim Guan Eng nampak gayanya semakin bongkak mendabik dada akan menang lagi kali ini. Jika beliau menang lagi maka, lebih banyaklah “perubahan demi perubahan" yang akan dilakukan di Pulau Pinang itu. Mungkin lebih banyaklah yang akan melukut di tepi gantang. Baca terus...

Jangan ambil hak kami

BALIK PULAU 4 Julai - Pemilik tanah di Kampung Genting di sini yang diarah berpindah oleh kerajaan DAP Pulau Pinang bagi memberi laluan kepada projek pembinaan sebuah universiti awam berikrar akan terus mempertahankan tanah warisan masing-masing.

TUMPUAN DI ISTANA NEGARA

Berita hangat 24 jam di kalangan elit politik membayangkan Istana Negara akan menjadi tumpuan hari esok. Mymassa dihubungi bertalu-talu untuk mengesahkan perkara tersebut. Apa pun, pembubaran Parlimen hanya Perdana Menteri tahu bila akan diumumkan. Rakan-rakan di Pulau Pinang hingga ke Sabah tidak henti-henti menghantar pesanan ringkas. Bagi Mymassa, kita menghormati hak dan kuasa pregroratif Perdana Menteri. Dalam pada itu, DS Najib Tun Razak, anak kepada Perdana Menteri Malaysia yang kedua kelihatan semakin yakin dan semakin cergas. Tatkala pesaingnya, DS Anwar Ibrahim dilaporkan membayangkan untuk bersara dan menjadi pensyarah di luar negara.

Corruption in Malaysia is NOT SO SERIOUS?

Corruption is the most intractable problem in the country. It is difficult to curb. Younger brother to the Prime Minister and CIMB group chief executive Datuk Seri Nazir Razak told the Financial Times that the government must overcome corruption to move up from being a middle-income economy. He said that Malaysia could consider granting an amnesty for those involved in minor corruption, as has been done in Hong Kong, to reduce resistance from the vested interests. It is doubtful that letting small fish go without an institutional reform can actually curb corruption. In fact, the biggest obstacle is, senior officials do not believe that corruption in the country is serious. The Performance Management and Delivery Unit (Pemandu) pointed out at end of last month that Malaysia has been improving in its graft fight over the past three years. It added that a great controversy would be stirred like a dust storm every time when a corruption case was revealed, but it does not mean that the situation has turned serious. However, the assessments of the outside world are inconsistent with the official statement. Read more... Jarumemas: Corruptions happen everywhere...
