First, it was Anwar. Then it was RPK. The government is fully utilizing its machineries to clamp down this 2 icons of Malaysia. These 2 icons stressed again & again, "LAWAN TETAP LAWAN!"
Botak in yesterday Star paper said "Syed Hamid: Anwar need not fear giving sample". This botak is trying to influence an ongoing investigation but no action so far against botak. (DNA samples during the 1998 case was too old? Sekolah hutan mana you keluar botak? DNA cannot be manipulated BUT can be planted, see the reason why now? Duh... botak)
The Oil Debate - So what? We know who won, who is more intellectual and who is from the jungle school but so what?
Government is using its media, its police force, its judiciary system against 2 icons who got the rakyat behind them. We got YouTube, Blogger, Google all behind us.
Not too long ago, Karpal Singh, the DAP Tiger was regarded as disrespectful for allegedly "QUESTIONING" the powers of the Sultan of Perak over the reinstatement of state Religious Department director Datuk Jamry Sury, who had earlier been transferred by Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin.
The above mentioned were splashed all over the major newspaper and created such a hoo-haa among the UMNOputras. Even our 'Flip-Flop' PM urged the Attorney General to speed up the investigation of the case when there are far more cases yet to be solved in this country. Malaysian Youth Council (MYC) secretary-general, in the press statement commented, "...it was unbecoming of Karpal, who is also Bukit Gelugor MP, to release such a statement, which could THREATEN RACIAL STABILITY. His statement not only insults the Sultan, but also the Malay Rulers institution and the Constitution. He is RUDE and should apologise to Sultan Azlan Shah for issuing such a statement." Izin-kan saya yang berhormat, excerpt from Malaysia-today article, "...Rosmah phoned His Highness the Sultan of Selangor and scolded him. Rosmah spoke to His Highness the way you would scold a dog that shit on your new carpet." Read the full stories here. Can someone tell me the definition of "RUDE" now? Kurang Ajar!!!
Another NS trainee died. I am lucky as there was no such camp during my teen years. But I am worried for others and perhaps my children. Since introduced in 2004, total deaths involving NS camp is 16 deaths, that makes it like averagely 4 deaths a year. Why burden the rakyat with such a worry? When will this crap NS thingy be scrapped off?
Latest from the net, Marina posted bail and RPK should be released by tomorrow. Hidup RPK! We love you!
And on a separate note, the choice we made on 8th March 2008, you judge yourself with the few coming youtubes that I am going to publish. When we have doubts on the country's judiciary system, rest assured, we have calibre MPs who will indeed fight for us, stand for us against this corrupted barisan najis. The arrest of RPK clearly shown "The Empire Strikes Back", Sedition Act was used instead of defamation. Take a look at all 4 videos and see for yourself how Kinabatangan merajuk.
And oh ya, thanks a lot Yang Berhormat Lim Kit Siang...
A friend who is also a fellow reader of my blog asked, "Mike, why are you so upset when RPK got arrested as it is none of your business? You had a career, a decent life, why care risking yourself with this post?"
Here's my reply to you. If it is not your flesh that is being cut, you will never feel the pain. You choose to be ignorant but not me. When I read Marina's (RPK's wife) post here, I felt her pain, I felt the tormenting time she is going through as a wife and a mother. We have the power and right to speak out our opinion, my parents gave me higher level of education not only just to earn a decent living in some MNCs but my parents also taught me the basic principle of life. My parents also taught me how to distinguish between what's logic and what's insanity.
On 8th of March, we had shown them the sign, the political tsunami, the voice of the rakyat. Read the wiki definition of Sedition Act (Malaysia) 1948 and using this, the barisan najis think they can f**king (I censored as I know my top management read my blog now) shut the bloggers up and cripple the Malaysiakini operation. Sorry to say, I blog & voice my opinion without fear and this whole saga had indeed upset the whole blogosphere. We indeed had enough of lies & sweet promises from the sleeping log. Arresting RPK alone will not do any help, there are hundreds of other political bloggers out there (although not as insprational as RPK) will definitely stand behind him and we will continue to voice our unhappiness here, this is my own space, we have the exclusivity here. The only law you can do against us will be the Sedition Act 1948.
Am I seditious here?
Well... my hero opts for jail to prove a point, I am here too for a better nation, better law & right and a better future.
Short Note: Going Wan Chai for infamous noodle, sis recommended damn nice.
Look at this masterpiece from Amiruddin Harun & Nor Zainah Nordin. Sekali lagi, stop insulting our intelligence, boleh kah? Jangan buat lawak bodoh. Oh ya, in between the Government revoke Makkal Osai paper, I got a message to Mr. Albar, "Lesen Utusan tu review jugak lar"
Look at their lame Photoshop skill here. Quickly view it, tau lar, mamat nanti dah receive banyak komen, tentu delete punya, macam mamat kat melaka tu.
Short Note: Typhoon Level 1 Red Alert in Hong Kong today (18/04/2008)
My trip to Macao was not all fun like in the previous post. This post will elaborate more on my 2nd & 3rd day in Macao in more details.The seminar officially started on the 14th April, basically it was a seminar for the internal LG staff and the roadshow was on the next day on the 15th April. I came with a co-worker in my department.Unlike the consumer electronics business, this seminar I attended, stressed on Biz-2-Biz (B2B), more leaning towards commercial or corporate sales. Many would not have know the importance in Malaysia yet but we soon to see a booming as we all know Malaysia is always slow in adapting new stuff.
So what actually is the product we talking about here? It is more on digital signages & TV with hotel mode. In many other more developed countries, fluorescent light advertisement board & neon lights slowly extincting. Welcoming LCD technology into digital signages world. It is amazing to see how software does magic to these screens.
From left to right. The very first large screen of 4 pieces is what we call the video wall. It can go as many screens combinations as you like, imagine 9x9 42" screens across or 1x16 screens horizontally, how impressing it is to onlookers. Fluorescent box & neon lights are so dull & plain and the consumers now are much sophisticated than before, go to Venetian, you will see more LCD screens than any other hotel in the world.The second screen from the left is pivotal 3-sides, one of its kind. Too technical and interested party can always contact me. The third kinda of screen is more towards special stretched screens where it will replace those LEDs signages, or even be used in casinos, many casinos in Vegas already start using this kinda screens.
Besides the digital signages screens, we were introduced to the new hotel mode LCD TVs. With the extension of Visit Malaysia Year 2008, many hotels are doing revamping, who still want to stay in hotels with CRT TVs? LCD is the in thing now.
As these are seminar for distinguished guests from Asia Pacific including Middle East, Australia & New Zealand, there were sharing of ideology on how to improve the business and many success stories all over the world. Anyone interested in these screens in Malaysia, please drop me a mail k.
And for lowyat.net forumers who are following my blog, just a teaser on the LG Voyager phone to be launched in US.
And for those 2-days of seminar & roadshow, my next post will be on a short city tour in Macao. More photos coming along.
Out of topik sikit - I was following on some other political blogs in Malaysia and I got a message to this old man who started blogging sebab pasal BN kalah internet war at the GE-12. Ali Rustam, jangan sekadar nak rakyat komen yg bagus, dan tak terima yg tak bagus, pakai otak sikit kalau nak blog, get your facts right, kalau nak blog, terima lar kritikan juga, penakut macam you, bagus tutup blog site you. Malu oi Melaka! I am a Malaccan you know, though you win, I never regret my vote went the other way. If you guys got no idea what am I ranting about, this Mat Ali wrote about piggy story bashing the new Selangor government, after Malaysiakini found out who spearhead the project, this mamat deleted his post and disabled his comment but kita rakyat bukan bodoh, nak menang undi internet bukan senang mat, check here to read the 300+ bashings from the rakyat before this mamat deleted the post. Hadiah kandang babi tu sebelum ni satu lagi projek Barisan Nasional. BERANI KERANA BENAR!!!
Short Note: Datuk Zakaria Deros, the infamous Klang Municipal Councilor passed away this morning. Full stories here. What are we going to do with his mansion has 21 bathrooms and 16 bedrooms, including 11 that are occupied by each of his children, as well as a VIP room, three living rooms, a dining hall and a prayer room.
Wake up to the new beginning. I felt much safer now as I know I am under care in good hands. Finally we can say no to the mainstream media, who always blinded people with its defense on its political masters. The new change, I read on a post stating that Malaysiakini can circumvent the Printing Presses & Publication Act 1984 and go to print because a state can grant publishing permits. Now we have 5 states support, why not?
Raja Petra, gua sokong sama lu habis-habis...
We will have our very own REAL people's paper soon. YA YA YA!!!
