Gelang Patah Chedet.Cc 11 April 2013 Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad 1. Kit Gelang Patah Chedet.cc 11 April 2013 Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad 1. Kit Siang is going to contest in Gelang Patah. 2. Why Gelang Patah? 3. Obviously it is because Gelang Patah has a Chinese majority. 4. Obviously Kit Siang is going to play on Chinese sentiments. 5. Johore has been an Alliance/Barisan Nasional stronghold ever since independence. The three races there have been supporting each other in elections. They do not have strong racist feelings. 6. But Kit Siang is going to bring about conflict and antagonism between the races, to wage the Chinese to dislike and hate the Malays. 7. The slogan of the DAP is Malaysian Malaysia, a slogan used by the PAP in the 1964 General Elections. The slogan implies that Malaysia did not belong to all Malaysians equally. It belongs to the Malays. 8. The PAP intended to get the Chinese not to co-operate with the Malays, to end the Sino-Malay “ kongsi” of the Tunku in the Alliance Party. 9. Kongsi means not taking all our entitlements for ourselves but sacrificing some so others may get their share. 10. The PAP rejected this “kongsi” principle demanding that everything be based on merit. When Singapore left Malaysia the DAP, the PAP Trojan horse, took up the Malaysian Malaysia slogan. The intention was to draw away Chinese support from the MCA and abandon the kongsi concept with UMNO and the Malays. The meritocracy promoted by the DAP will mean diminishing opportunities for the Malays in education and in business. This will result in the Malays becoming less and less qualified and poorer. Meritocracy is not about sharing but about the winners taking all. 11. When Kit Siang decided to contest in Chinese majority Gelang Patah it is because he wanted the Chinese there and in Johor to reject working together and sharing with the Malays. 12. An unhealthy racial confrontation would replace Sino-Malay cooperation which has made Malaysia stable and prosperous. That cooperation will end when Kit Siang wins Gelang Patah. Even if there will not be violent clashes as seen in many countries where people are divided by race or religion, but confrontation between the three major races in Malaysia will be disruptive and will not be conducive to the development of Malaysia. 13. For this reason the decision of Kit Siang to contest in Gelan g Patah will be the focus of the 13th General Election in this country. 14. Will the DAP end Malay--Chinese friendship and cooperation in Johor or will “kongsi” remain the bases of race relations in Johor and in Malaysia? 301 Comments 1. Rahman 2012 April 29, 2013 at 7:40 PM | Permalink Dear OssO It’s a blessing to be mixed -blood. “When life gives you a lemon, make lemonade.” Your multi-racial background could win you support from both the Malays and the Chinese if you were to contest in Gelang Patah. You position will be stronger if you were multi -lingual. That’s why Najib is grooming his son Ashman to master Chinese languag e, to strengthen his position to be the future PM. 2. mubarakchan April 29, 2013 at 4:07 PM | Permalink Tun The inferior intellect of the Singaporean DAP leadership as compared to their founder Lee Kuan Yew has created a serpent with 7 heads which the leadership must slay before 5 May 2013. The heads are as follows. 1. The PAP slogan ‘Malaysia for Malaysians’ since 1966. 2. The specious religious speech by the God of Po wer and Happiness, Pulau Pinang to appease the bongo-bongo voodoo choral and dancing troupe of Subang Jaya. 3. The CEC Elections fiasco. 4. The recent announcement that ‘Malaysian Politics is Malay -based’. 5. Hudud or no hudud that is the Singaporean DAP q uestion. 6. The Singaporean DAP being in cahoots with the very rich PKR and the very pious PAS shows the very tenuous lines of bonding. 7. And the fact that the Singaporean DAP might join the BN as led by the UMNO with the 14 component parties leaving the very rich PKR and the very pious PAS high and dry. if the Opposition loses. These 7 heads of the serpent have to be slain before the 5 May 2013. I have never seen such a remarkable sight before. Vote BN. 3. mubarakchan April 29, 2013 at 11:01 AM | Permalink Tun For all Bloggers. Oyez ! Oyez ! Oyez ! Your current topic certainly struck a bell in my head. Why LKS wants to stand in Gelang Patah ? With the gathering momentu m of the fray with all the Molotov cocktails, the stones, the fights, the dust, the abuse and insults etc being thrown around in increasing intensity, one thing is very clear which we must focus on is the interesting linkage between LKY -LKS -LGE Troika. I believe the assault of the BN citadel of Johor is not only diversionary as suggested by one respected senior analyst but this masked the ultimated direction which the Singaporean DAP will take if it wins or if it LOSES. Now even though LKS is an ordinary ma n like most of us but he is no ordinary man who contemplated his navel for 47 long years by doing nothing and obediently with great patience shouted the given PAP slogan ‘Malaysia for Malaysians’ and then did a 180 degree turn and shout, ‘Malaysian Politic s is Malay-based’. For what purpose ? I see this as an attempt to prepare for his impending loss at Gelang Patah. And also of all his cohorts or digits throughout the rest of Johor. The reason is that it is not logical to sacrifice major pieces in Johor wi th the full knowledge that the BN citadel will be defended tooth and nail by the UMNO with the 14 component parties. I agree with the respected senior analyst that this maneuver is to protect the Queen in Pulau Pinang, the King is in Singapore. So, how doe s the linkage of LKY-LKS-LGE pan out. Instinctively, at the back of it all, there is the gambling instinct of the Chinese coupled with a fail-safe system locked into the caper. A tails I win. A heads I win scenario. From the character of LKS, he is expecte d to become a hero by losing at Gelang Patah in preparation of the next step which PROTECTS THE KING IN SINGAPORE AND THE QUEEN (the God of Power and Happiness) IN PULAU PINANG AND GIVES HIMSELF KUDOS – killing 3 blackbirds with 1 stone – BY JOINING THE BN TO THE SURPRISE OF THE DUO – the very rich PKR and the very pious PAS. Sorry to say, it is a damned smart move but it will not give the Chinese a good name. Let us analyse the trio LKY-LKS -LGE. 1. On LKY – the King of the piece – hopefully that in politic s, my compatriots will understand that there are no good or bad guys or gals. LKY is up a greasy pole with his 8 failed Policies or maybe more, he needs badly to roll the clock back to save his reputation and legacy. Vide. My Comments. By doing this killin g 3 blackbirds with one stone, his dilemma becomes Malaysia’s dilemma. The question we ask. ‘ Does the BN takes prisoners ?’ 2. On LKS, as I have said he exercised great ancient patience by contemplating his navel for 47 long years waiting for the Trojan H orse to be activated. or the penny to drop. It is now activated with the latest Singaporean DAP slogan, ‘Malaysian Politics is Malay-based’. He has done nothing except for his son LGE. And he can be a probable DPM if the Singaporean DAP joins the BN after all he is still a young 74 with all the good medicines. See how a person can do great things by doing nothing. It is a question of TIMING ! 3. On LGE – the God of Power and Happiness of Pulau Pinang. His hands are tied. His financial resources are limited. Pulau Pinang is not an independent country especially if the Federal Government is not friendly to give big big soft loans. All these copy-cat megaprojects of Singapore are a pipe -dream. No money. No talk. The Queen is up another greasy pole and will cras h with 2-3 years without friendly Federal Government support. This is another reason why the Singaporean DAP leadership will be marching into the outstretched arms of the BN, corruption or no corruption, scandals or no scandals – a week is a long time in p olitics. Conclusion. This song and dance routine of the Trio LKY -LKS-LGE before joining the BN, suits Singapore to a T. They are in the cockpit somewhere or else to obviate Singapore from facing SPARTA -DOM, Singapore is forced to review : - 1. Singapore bec omes the 53rd State of the Union of the great United States. The Americans are fully aware. 2. Singapore becomes a Crown Colony again. 3. Status quo – in a short time, the costs of maintenance will go through the roof. 4. Re-merge with Malaysia. An ancient saying forbids – a good horse never returns to old pastures. For LKS, a cosy chair DPM2 by the Prime Minister, Dato Seri Najib bin Tun Abdul Razak’s side. and for LGE, all his wishes come true, the God of Power and Happiness. TUN I HOPE YOU FORGIVE ME FOR DAY-DREAMING ABOUT POLITICIANS of the Singaporean DAP kind. Sorry to say the above are not facts only fantasies ! How can foretell the future ! Vote BN.

  • MCA - Three Strikes and You're Out! Malaysiakini.Com April 8, 2013 by K Temoc
    MCA - three strikes and you're out! MalaysiaKini.com April 8, 2013 By K Temoc After the 1969 general election the late Dr Ismail Abdul Rahman, then deputy prime minister, was known to have said, “MCA dan MIC nampaknya tidak mahu hidup dan tidak mahu pula mati”, using a Malay idiom ‘hidup segan, mati tak mahu’ (figuratively ‘neither alive nor dead’) to sneeringly describe a virtually political-defunct Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA). MCA had then been dealt its first strike in the game of politics. Undoubtedly May 1969 was a bad time for the MCA, losing in disastrous measures to a loose coalition of the (original) Gerakan Party, a then very new Democratic Action Party (DAP), the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) (then under the Seenivasagam brothers), and even Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS). But embarrassing as it was for MCA, it wasn't its worst moment yet, because successes and failures are part and parcel of politics, and while depressing, we expected the MCA to pick itself up again. And it did. In 1985, during the acrimonious dispute for the party’s presidential post between Tan Koon Swan and Neo Yee Pan, MCA disgraced itself in no uncertain terms by having the then deputy prime minister, the late Ghafar Baba and a Malay, occupied the MCA’s top position to moderate a settlement between the two Chinese contenders. That incident would not have been disgracefully controversial if the MCA had been a multiracial political party. That it was, and still is, a Chinese race-based party, in having a Malay as its head, no matter how temporary it had been, was certainly a dubious Malaysian first, an utterly shameful indictment on MCA’s inability to represent itself, let alone the Chinese community.

  • Tun Razak and Tun Ismail – the Movie
    Tun Razak and Tun Ismail – the movie By ISABELLE LAI [email protected] PETALING JAYA: The extraordinary friendship between Tun Abdul Razak Hussein and Tun Dr Ismail Abdul Rahman will be depicted for the first time in a movie. A hunt is underway to find the actors to play the roles of the two leaders who were instrumental in bringing peace and stability to the country after the May 13, 1969 racial conflict. Leading roles: The hunt is on for actors to play Tun Abdul Razak and Dr Ismail (above). Co-producer Kavita Sidhu said they were looking for experienced performers for individual casting. “They can be Malay, Chinese, Indian, Eurasian and Caucasian aged 20 to 50 plus. Ability to handle dialogues in English would be an advantage,” she said, adding that the movie would be in Bahasa Malaysia with 30% English dialogue. With the working title of TANDA Putera Negara, the movie will depict the bond between Malaysia’s second Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister and how “they remained focused on securing the future of the country even while battling their own fatal illnesses.” Tun Abdul Razak Written by producer and director Datin Paduka Shuhaimi Baba, it aims to portray how they brought the country back from the brink of disaster in the aftermath of May 13. “For the two leaders, it was always ‘Country First’ no matter what their own personal circumstances were,” she said, adding that shooting would begin in May. Kavita also said that visual effects consultant Madhu Sudhanan from Mumbai would assist the production team.

  • Penang Asks Cinemas Not to Screen Tanda Putera Malaysiakini.Com Aug 28, 2013 by Susan Loone
    Penang asks cinemas not to screen Tanda Putera MalaysiaKini.com Aug 28, 2013 By Susan Loone The Penang government will request cinemas in the state to not screen 'Tanda Putera', which is scheduled for release nationwide tomorrow. NONEState exco member Chow Kon Yeow, who is in charge of local government and thus cinema licences, said his department will issue the written request today. "We have no control over the content of the film, (which is the prerogative of) Finas (National Film Development Corporation Malaysia). "However, in view of the sensitive nature of the movie, we are directing the two local councils (in Penang and Seberang Perai) to write in to ask the cooperation of the cinemas to not screen the movie," he told a press conference. lim guan eng interview 160813 02Asked what would the state do if the cinemas refused to comply, Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng (left), who was also present, did not provide a direct answer. "The film has scenes which are slanderous, based on lies, and it is a threat to the harmony between the different communities in the country. "Those scenes of Chinese youth urinating inside the Selangor menteri besar (Harun Idris') residence and Malaysian flag can create chaos in society," he said. He said the incident never happened because the residence was heavily guarded, as claimed by a witness who was at Harun's house at the material time. Licence to lie? Lim also took the mainstream media to task for failing to point out that the scene was a work of fiction. On film director Shuhaimi Baba's explanation that the filmmakers claimed "creative licence" to adapt historical events into the film, Lim said that it was not a "licence to lie".
