The coverage of the MCA General Assembly yesterday in today's papers in kinda nauseating. Thank goodness for The Sun for giving coverage to the RM4.6 billion scandal at the Port Klang Free Trade Zone. (Yes, you can build nearly 2 new Penang bridges with that amount of money.)Pak Lah proudly proclaimed that "I want to be fair. I am fair and I will always be fair."
Mohd Said Yusof and Bung Mokhtar gets away with insincere apologies without further action from the Parliament for using unparliamentary language and insulting women. Wee Meng Chee gets threatened with the Sedition, the Internal Security Act, revocation of citizenship, forced extradition, public reprimand and unjust scolding by Ministers. And yet, after the 24 year old student apologised, the Cabinet decides to proceed for legal action. Where's the fairness?
Nathaniel Tan gets detained under remand for 4 days for alleged Official Secrets Act documents which never had, and "official secrets" which had already been published in mainstream newspapers. Raja Petra Kamaruddin gets call in by the police and grilled for 8 hours for allegedly insulting Agung and Islam. Even his wife wasn't spared. But when UMNO supporters websites threaten non-Malays and non-Muslims with blood and murder, when they public published articles which insults other religions, no action is taken. Where's the fairness?
The above are just some simple examples. We can all cite plenty more, and we are seeing it everyday. Just what type of fairness the Prime Minister, Pak Lah is preaching, I have absolutely no clue. The rakyat believed him the last elections. Will they believe him again this time? Is Pak Lah still credible?
Well, MCA thinks he is. In fact, the MCA president, who not too long ago was publicly reprimanded by the Prime Minister on the frontpage of the New Straits Times, asked "party members to stop criticising some statemnents made during hte UMNO general assembly last year". (The Sun)
He said they [MCA members] must accept this reality because there were no other Malay-dominated political parties the MCA could cooperate with.
"We must not lie to ourselves and think that one day UMNO may just disappear. Many Malays still believe that only through UMNO that their rights can be protected and this is the reality."And as reported in NST:
"Umno is a true ally and our co-builder in the nation’s development, why should we end such a beautiful friendship?"Yes, birds of the same feather certainly flocks together. A beautiful friendship indeed.

Every year without fail there were such grand and 'heart' warming speeches given. What is new?
Talk is cheap but the 'Promises' are cheaper.
I almost want to vomit when I read this statement by the super-hypocrite king.
Being cheated once in 2004, and will never be cheated again!!
"Anti-corruption campaign??" hahaaa
Pray tell us how many were investigated and actually charged for corruption in Bolehland?? More spin for the elections, huh!!! Lets get real, we dont fall for this anymore!!
Ong Ka Ting,
If UMNO violates those principles that you have created, may I ask, what are you going to do?
Quit BN? Don't be kidding lah.. LOL..Good.. dog. Now sit!
General Election is coming soon! Slogans! Campagns! Roadshows! Principles! All these are perfect!!!
In reality, rights and wrongs make no difference!
Best partner my ass, everyone knows that's a lie. Ong Ka Ting is such a hypocrite coward, shame on him!
ya, i will believe him..as a snakeoil seller who will screw you everytime you turn your back.
as usual, cakap and bikin tak serupa.
That is not new at all for the BN to promise thing eg, "we treat equally for every race ..No 1 is above the law ,we will share the cake together"...Tell you what... definitely...more carrot will coming their way..
SO are we going to get cheated again ??HAHA..not to me of course..
Those thing can keep for him self when he is going to kick off from the coming election..
come on malaysia..let's do our part..even all the town voter cant compare with the vote at Kampung..so they wont lose their control in parliament .i read some article were reported..we can only reduce their arrogant control of 98% of present seat ...let's do it right this time for this coming election.
For those uncles and unties with children of over 21 years old, please help educate them the importance of having a stronger opposition in the Parliment.
We must all do our part to help save our country's resources from being sucked dry by a handful of dirty BN politicians and their families!
Tony, we look forward to seeing the e-book describing all evil sides of the BN government. Let us help you to spread the e-book at the fastest rate!
Highlight this contradiction :
Pak Lah proudly proclaimed that "I want to be fair. I am fair and I will always be fair."
And from Malaysiakini :
An opposition parliamentarian today urged Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to revoke a Treasury circular directing government agencies to appoint only bumiputera consultant firms registered with the Finance Ministry for development projects under RM30 million.
Watching this government run is like watching a circus act...

After 50 years, what has BN achieved?
對一個人來說，50年是壯年：可以事業有成、經濟基礎強、孩子長大、社會及人生經驗豐富，是處於進可攻，退可守的年齡。
對一個國家來說，50年是年輕力壯：可以是朝氣蓬勃，讓國人充滿憧憬的“國齡”。一代人已經擺脫被殖民地的思維，為能參與國家建設而興奮。
正在慶祝獨立50年的馬來西亞又是怎樣的呢？（開宗明義，50年不應該只是讓我們歌功頌德，更應該是讓我們自我檢討。）
硬體設備、經濟建設，我們引以為傲，進展神速；但是軟體設備，特別是人民思維、行政效率，不僅停滯不前，未見開明，反而更趨保守極端。
由於篇幅有限，這裡不談好的，只談待改進的：
政壇裡：多數仍由老一代領袖主導。新一代領袖思維不只未有突破，反而更封閉；
政府裡：行政偏差依舊，種族主義思想盛行；
社會裡：兩極化嚴重，宗教思想愈趨保守；
經濟裡：種族保護政策依舊，拐杖照拿（甚至要電動輪椅）。
更不幸的是，老一輩人似乎比年輕人更開明。
當然我們不能只怪現任政府，真正講起來，今天這個處境，曾掌權超過20年的前首相馬哈迪也難辭其咎。
最近一位親戚的孩子去澳洲留學，他說在國外才真正的感受到學生對國家悲觀的情緒，因為絕大部份的大馬留學生都有共同的想法，就是設法申請PR（永久居留證），然後才決定學成是否回國。那些少數想畢業後回國的大馬留學生，被當著稀有品種看待。其他國家的留學生如新加坡，甚至中國都清楚表明一畢業就要回國。
為甚麼會這樣？50年獨立的成果竟然是留不住自己的國民。我們肯定有病，而且還病得不輕。如果領袖們還患上老人癡呆症、狂燥症、自閉症、骨格疏鬆症、精神衰弱症、紅眼症及自戀狂等，國家危矣！
獨立50年紀念是讓我們認真檢討的時機，認真診斷我們的病情，然後敢敢對症下藥。如果我們諱疾忌醫，最後病情將加重。
愛之深，責之切！忠言肯定逆耳，希望筆者不會成為另一位黃明志。

Hey Chan Kong Choy,
Don't be a coward! You still owe the nation an explanation on the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ). Full report see here (http://malaysia-today.net/blog2006/newsncom.php?itemid=7442).
The Star should be ashamed of itself for covering up so many important news.
I suggest that we boycott both the Star and New Strait Times. Read only the SUN, Malaysia Today (http://www.malaysia-today.net/index.shtml) and Malaysiakini (http://www.malaysiakini.com/)!!

Dear All Eligible Malaysian Voters,
Please open your eye this time before you cast your vote!
Since Pak Lah has become the 5th Prime Minsiter of Malaysia, all the promises made in 2004 were never fulfilled. Instead the country has degraded in all acpects including corruption and transparency, education system, crime rates, etc. He has failed miserably as the country leader! Please vote him out next General Election!
现任首相阿都拉所领导的政府自上届大选以来，所实现的执政承诺几乎等于零，包括贪污、教育素质下降和治安问题，都无法交出令人满意的成绩。

Don't ever fall into the trap of "Crocodile tears" again!! Else we will suffer another 5 years!!!
The devil PM is out again to give empty talk before the election.
support MCA = support UMNO = support Devil
When Pak Lah said. 'I want to be fair, I have been fair, I will be fair!'.
The immediate response I wanted to give.
You want to be fair, you have not succeeded. It may be worst than being unfair..
Good intentions are probably the worst enemy of real progress, because its clouded with non-accountability.
Najib is probably the only other person worst than our PM in making up cliche statments. We are suffering from the most mediocre leadership in Malaysian history and will be for a time to come.. We are a lucky nation...
Scandals after scandals, with billions of ringgit losses and its not an issue. They only know how to enrich their pockets at the expense of the rakyat. Cabinet dont discuss. Negarakuku is a big issue. PM and all the ministers want to punish Namewee cos he violated the law. Only morons have this mentality. Vote BN out in the next GE before they bankrupt this country. Maybe they already have but still not too late. Get rid of the corrupts, cheats and liars. Get BN out!!
Party MIC
there, the idiots took money from China for the 2nd bridge project... there pinjam, here kantoi... habis la...
the rate is going, how far can our reserves last? the money in our reserves was supposed to be for a rainy day, is this man made disaster a rainy day?
everything we believe in was a LIE. the Govt was bad during TDM time but we didnt have this kind of blatant corruption, its getting worse and worse.
1) PKFZ RM4,600,000,000.00 scandal
2) Eric Chia smiling walking out, that Perwira scandal how much bail out?
3) The company we sold for 1 Euro has been sold to BMW for dont know how much millions of ringgit
4) Zakaria and his palace, still escape.
now they all busy with namewee's rap.
cakap tak serupa bikin!
WOI En. Abdullah!!! HAVE YOU SEEN EZAM"S REPORT YET OR NOT???? Malu lah!!
Screw Them All.
Quotes from George Orwell, Auther of Animal Farm; "Somehow it seemed as though the farm had grown richer without making the animals themselves any richer- except, of course, for the pigs and the dogs".....
UMNO + MCA + MIC + smaller parties = cancer to the society and the country. Time to look for group of "surgeons" to remove this dangerous cancer.
I can only agree that NameWee be punished PROVIDED that Khairy, Najib, His-shameful-din, Nazri, the 'bocor" MPs, etc, who gave more seditious remarks be punished similarly.
There cannot and must not be double-standard treatment allowed in this country where our PM has said that he is fair to ALL. We will see if what he claims, he will carry out!
BN = HYPROCRITE
It's time to change government!!
Jangan bekerja untuk saya tetapi bekerja bersama saya, inilah ungkapn rhetorik yang dihamburkan semasa dilantik menjdi PM. Nampaknya kata-kata ini telah ditelan oleh tindakan yang tidak rasional terutamanya dalam isu-isu besar. Mula dengan gemilang dan akhir dengan temberang. Sepatutnya dimulakan dengan bismillah diakhiri dengan alhamdullillah.
UMNO Office
I am fair, I will be fair, I will always be fair........................ to all my cronies and my family members my brilliant but KJar son in law included every one will get a fair share of the cake.
Nazri
I am fair, I will be fair, I will always be fair ........................
I will always be a very very very good talker, I love to talk about anti corruption, transperancy, efficiency, fairness bla bla bla blaness, rubbishness............
But pls lah, let me talk lah, as nothing else i could do besides keep on talking and make emphty promises, because i do not know anything else other than continue to talk talk talk...........
Hi AAB - the greatest patriot of Malaysia. Go on and keep raping the nation's resouces with your family and SIL and the mainstream newspaper will sing more praises for you. You are the biggest shame Malaysia has.

Malaysian must first be enlightened on how risky n vulnerable we are n for the nation in such a situation whereby almost 200 out of 219 seats are returned to a so called "front",especially so whereby MCA,MIC,GERAKAN n the others "mosqueto" components are jus "rubber stamps" for umno to qualify in their whim n fancy dealings!!By voting in this kind of manner,we are 'signning"away our n our future generation's well beings away indiscrimately!!This is jeopalising n fatal n unhealthy for all malaysian !!this is exactly what happen to this nation now,like it or not,absolute power "craddles" corruptions,abusing of rights,ignorance on responsibility,tyrannical ruling behaviours,forgetting they are of ,from n for the people!!Put it in a simpler manner,not many rich men even dare to "kuasa" his entire wealth to his kins n siblings before his last breath.Any man could hav promised any woman that she would be his only n last woman in life,n visi-versa;but who knows?Only the very last breath would tell!!common folk like me n u,irregardless of race must vote sensibly ,our vote is expensive,not rm200.00 can buy!!YM Raja Nazrin is right,malaysian must be encouraged to comprehend the constitution,then they won't be apprehended and confused in such a apathetical manner!!200 out of 219 is an act of "harakiri",it is heading towards the word "detrimental" could describe for malaysia n all malaysian.Do not be affraid of pas,dap n keadilan or even independents who know Raja Nazrin,Raja Petra who might be one of them!As far as the rule of game is concerned,they could be "red-carded" during GE for non performance!!borrow from a great man's statement"black cat or white cat,the cat that can catch mouse(for the good of malaysia n all malaysian)is a good cat"!!
