Enough of racism!

Over the past few days, besides the furor and angst among the public of the Sodomy II, it seems absurd that the Prime Minister’s Najib Tun Razak’s special officer Nasir Safar can’t resist the temptation to put himself into the limelight and being seen as the champion of Ketuanan Melayu.

During a seminar titled ‘Rapat 1Malaysia’ [...]

Malaysia without politicians, according to Mahathir

In the latest entry on his blog, former PM Tun Mahathir speaks some sense, not only in me, but I’m sure many others would agree too.

It makes we wonder whether the country would not be better off if we don’t have politicians. Of course I am one. But it does seem that it is the [...]

Selamat Hari Merdeka, Yasmin …

I used to grow up watching Yasmin Ahmad’s TV advertisements for Petronas.

The message she was trying to bring out to us is so simple, so direct, yet it’s so significant and created so much of impact, and yet, very unfortunately, being taken for granted by many of us, after more than 50 years of independence.

Errr… 1Malaysia?

This is getting hilarious.

On one hand, DPM Muhyiddin Yassin said 1Malaysia is set to become a very influential brand name to promote Malaysian businesses among both domestic and global investors.

Justice for Beng Hock, Answers for Rakyat!
I was among the thousands at Kelana Jaya Stadium to mark the death of political aide Teo Beng Hock.

Regardless of what’s written on some rubbish papers which were trying to instigate the unilaterally informed group, the takeaway message from the rally is clear.

Who killed Beng Hock?

Let’s not allow [...]

51 years after independence

I read this from The Malaysian Insider a few minutes ago and this is really getting to me.

Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak today moved to smother the build-up of angst and confusion surrounding his One Malaysia concept, urging his Cabinet to view all citizens as Malaysians.

While he did not flesh out the concept during [...]

The returning of Mahathirism

Forget about the new cabinet line-up.

It just proved that Tun Mahathir influence is back and going to play a very important role under the new leadership of Najib Razak.

Like it or not, it’s a fact.

Look at the latest line-up. Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin was excluded while Mukhriz Mahathir, who lost the battle to KJ and [...]

Umno & Zaid’s Saya Pun Melayu

The fact is, is there is nothing exceptional, DPM Najib Tun Razak will be sworn in as the 6th Prime Minister of Malaysia when Abdullah Ahmad Badawi relinquishes his post on April 2.

By now, it’s only a matter of when, no doubt about that.

But more interestingly, the better question to ask, is Najib going to [...]
