Stop brainwashing students’

Sarawak DAP is demanding that stern action is taken against
teachers who utter insensitive remarks to their students.
KUCHING: Sarawak DAP has slammed the Education Ministry for not prioritising the amendments to history books which had resulted in the Malaysian teaching fraternity being infected by racist teachers spawned from the system.

It blammed the government’s failure to severely reprimand and take action against teachers, who in the past, had mouthed racial slurs against students, as the reason behind the continued occurences of such incidents.

AirAsia will acquire a 20.5% stake in ailing
MAS under a share swap deal.
KUALA LUMPUR: Fast-growing budget airline AirAsia will acquire 20.5% of ailing flag carrier Malaysia Airlines (MAS) in a share swap that will see the fierce rivals join forces, the carriers said today.

The deal also gives Malaysia-based AirAsia CEO Tony Fernandes – who took over the no-frills carrier and turned into one of the industry’s biggest success stories – a voice in turning around loss-making MAS.

Sabah people stand to lose with increased tariff

The electricity tariff hike 'Sabah may lose out investors to S'wak'

INANAM: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) said the excuse that Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd (SESB) continued to incur losses so as to justify increasing the State's electricity tariff cannot be accepted because the company had made a profit in 2006.

Its Deputy President Datuk Eric Majimbun said this was based on the SESB audited accounts showing it registered a net profit of RM126 million as at Aug. 31, 2006, which was a turnaround for the company.

Brain drain: The story behind the dwindling Chinese in Malaysia

Chinese have been told to go back to China by extremists and yes, Chinese are leaving not only by the dozens, but in tens of thousands, not to China but to Singapore, Australia, England, USA, Canada and most of the developed countries in the world seeking greener pastures and a place they can work and live without prejudice. This naturally caused a decline in the population of the Chinese in Malaysia and worst for the nation, a brain drain.

Sabahans file summons on Borneonsation, seeking 8 court declarations

By Ezra Haganez
KOTA KINABALU: Two Sabahans filed Monday (Aug 8) a summons at the High Court here seeking eight declarations against the Federal and State Governments, on the issue of their failure to implement "Borneonisation" of the federal public services in the state.

Borneonisation of federal services in Sabah is one of the 20 Points agreement, and is also assured and recommended in the Report of the Inter-Governmental Committee (IGC) in 1962 as conditions for Sabah (then North Borneo) to be co-partner with Malaya, Singapore and Sarawak in forming a new federation called Malaysia in 1963.

According to Siah, the police would only allow a stationary rally with no march or procession and that the application for the permit must be made through a registered organization.

Ambiga thanks PSM 6 for taking the heat for Bersih

Putrajaya and the Sabah government to strictly adhere to the Malaysia Agreement.

Hasan Ali Is Pakatan's Ibrahim Ali

By Masterwordsmith

Hasan Ali was relieved from his position as the head of PAS Selangor last June for various reasons. Part of it was his inclination to side with UMNO goons despite his position as the number one man in PAS Selangor. Under his EXCO portfolio, several projects were awarded to UMNO goons, reason were they are much more capable than any of Pakatan's companies. Loads of crap.

Our MP cheated us, claim natives

By Luke Rintod of FMT
Trusting natives in two villagers in Sabah have alleged that an
Umno MP had sold them out.
KOTA BELUD: Natives in Kampung Rampayan Ulu near here, who had placed their trust in a local MP Abdul Rahman Dahlan, recently learnt that he had allegedly ‘sold’ their land to a private company.

The Muslim natives, known as the Iranuns, claimed that Umno parliamentarian Rahman had ‘supported’ a local company’s bid to takeover 1,200 hectares of their native customary rights (NCR) land in the village.


Dear Cousin

This means Malaysians are easily fooled and would swallow hook, line and sinker any crap thrown in their direction. And this is one reason the government can’t allow Christians to talk to Malays. Malays are too stupid to analyse which religion is better -- Islam or Christianity -- and they would easily be tricked into leaving Islam to become Christians.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Raja Petra Kamarudin

Dear Cousin,

I thought I should write to you and explain the current controversy raging in Malaysia regarding the recent church raid by the Selangor Religious Department. This follows closely behind the allegation that a meeting was held in Penang recently to plot turning Malaysia into a Christian state.

For someone who has once lived and worked in Malaysia I am sure you are quite perturbed by this turn of events because you had delightfully found Malaysians to be a peaceful and friendly community. And you in particular found the Malays, Indonesians and Filipinos a very easygoing people. Therefore, this hysteria about the Christian conspiracy is a far departure from what you understand the Malays to be.

Is war brewing in central Umno?

By Daniel John Jambun
Daniel John Jambun
We know that the state Umno leadership is not at its most harmonious. There is factionalism as confirmed recently by sharp criticism by one group against another group. Even government policies have been questioned by Umno’s own leaders. The Chief Minister himself had advised state leaders to avoid factionalism because it would not be good for the state-level Umno.
 
It has also been noticed that the component members of the state BN had on many occasions raised the voices against Umno, including the recent outburst by Sebatik Island PBS leaders who claimed to have been sidelined by Umno on that island. But while this has become a common story at the state level, there are now reports of problems creeping up at the highest level in central Umno. Datuk Khairy Jamaluddin, as the Umno Youth Chief, had been critical of some decisions by his party’s decisions, including the arrest of the six leaders of Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM).

Sarawak’s old ‘warriors’ worth only RM100

Some 186 aging Sarawak Rangers and Iban Trackers, who sacrificed their lives
defending the nation and whom the government has apparently forgotten are
desperately needing assistance.
KUCHING: In an age when even a school-going child’s pocket money is no less than RM1 a day, Sarawak’s veterans who defended the country against communists and terrorists are only worth RM100 a month.

That is the appalling situation facing several aging former Sarawak Rangers and Iban Trackers.

These men spent most of their entire life away from family and friends defending the country.

Briefly the Sarawak rangers were a para-military force founded in 1892.

Serbuan Jais: Kenyataan penuh Datuk Dr Hassan Ali

KENYATAAN AKHBAR DATO’ DR HASAN BIN MOHAMED ALI EXCO HAL EHWAL ISLAM, ADAT-ADAT MELAYU, INFRASTRUKTUR DAN KEMUDAHAN AWAM
Bahagian Penguatkuasaan Jabatan Agama Islam Selangor (JAIS) dan sepasukan anggota Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) telah membuat pemeriksaan ke atas sebuah gereja di Damansara Utama berdasarkan hasil maklumat yang diterima. Maklumat tersebut menyatakan terdapatnya kehadiran orang Islam di dalam majlis berbuka puasa yang diadakan di gereja tersebut.

Hasan Ali backs Jais raid, says ‘Quran’ and ‘Pray’ used in front of Muslims


(The Malaysian Insider) - Selangor executive councillor Datuk Hasan Ali defended today a late-night state Islamic enforcement raid on a church in Petaling Jaya yesterday, saying the words “Quran” and “pray” were used in the presence of Muslims at the dinner function.

He claimed this was part of the authorities’ evidence that Christians were proselytising to Muslims.

Widely seen as a religious conservative, Hasan has been at odds with the ruling Pakatan Rakyat (PR) state government’s seemingly liberal policies on several occasions, most notably his push for a beer sale ban in the country’s most developed state earlier this year.


Greedy Sabah officers eyeing welfare aid

By Luke Rintod of FMT
The Sabah Welfare Department has struck off a 70-year-old from their
aid list because they consider him to be 'healthy and capable of working.'
PENAMPANG: Greed has no end in Sabah where the poor, aged and disabled now face corrupt officers who want a share of their meagre RM150 or RM300 government welfare subsistence.

These groups now live in uncertainty fearful of whether their next month’s aid will be heldback because these Welfare Department officers also decide whether they are ‘fit’ or ‘unfit’ for support.

Sadly in Sabah, these groups are being held for ransom by the Sabah Welfare Department.

Already the department has come under fire for irregularities in the distribution of monthly welfare aid to the needy in various districts.

Jakarta paper claims PM’s future in-law has ties to Russian mafia

(The Malaysian Insider) - Indonesia’s top newspaper alleged today that the Kazakh mother of Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s and Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor’s future son-in-law is linked to the Russian mafia.

 Kompas, the most widely-read newspaper in Indonesia, published a column today that also questioned whether the controversies surrounding Rosmah would lead to “change and democratisation in Malaysia.”

Musa keeps Rosmah happy and Shafie out

Chief Minister Musa Aman's extensive reach in
Sabah makes him an almost invincible opponent
to allies and enemies alike.
LAHAD DATU: Musa Aman has ultimate control over the state’s economy, security and soil. He is Chief Minister, Finance Minister and Sabah Umno chairman.

It is a concentration of power, without oversight and unprecedented, in a state government. It was unheard of prior to the Umno-led Barisan Nasional’ s takeover of the state administration.

Psm And The Third Force

While the Third Force in Malaysian politics is trying to garner its candidates for the next general elections, the most obvious choices have been provided by the proven leaders of the Parti Sosialis Malaysia.
They have at least seven capable leaders who are suitable as candidates for Parliament, namely: Dr Jeyakumar Devaraj, Dr Nasir Hashim, S Arutchelvam, M Saraswathy, Choo Chon Kai, Rani Rasiah, and K Kunasekaran.

In the 2008 general elections, PSM's Dr Kumar (right) stood and won the Sungai Siput constituency against MIC President Samy Vellu.

Railway Service Still Stuck In The 70’s

OLD…… very old diesel locomotive.
By : DAP MEDIA

THE PAKATAN Rakyat team took a walk to look at the condition and situation in the Beaufort railway station on Monday. To their surprise, they found themselves back in time to the 70’s when they saw the old train and its locomotive.

The PR Member of Parliament from Kota Kinabalu Hiew King Cheu led the PR team comprising of DAP and PKR members. Among them were Edward Ewol Mujie, Taufik Ruschi, Jamil Zakaria, Ong Boon Ho, and others.

The MP was shocked when he saw many passengers sitting in a train carriage which is from the 70’s era. He saw many crowded people sitting on a row of timber bench set in the centre part of the train carriage with both doors slide wide open.

CARGO…. the old cargo carriage seated with full house passengers with cargos

There were bags of cement, other goods and even a bicycle stuffed in it. The cabin has no fans and the people are sitting shoulder rubbing shoulder.

Hiew said this is definitely a cargo carriage for the stacking of goods, why there is so many people crowdedly sitting in a goods carriage, where are the rules and regulations, and what is the Safety Board of the Transport Ministry has to say about this?

This railway in Sabah is spending heavily on the public fund. The government had spent at least some RM400 million on the upgrading and renewal program, but looking at the condition of the railway today you can feel that our money is not well spent. There is actually not worth the amount of money spent, in another words the money is wasted.

CARGO…. the old cargo carriage seated with full
house passengers with cargos.
The railway users complained to the MP that they also felt that they have been let down of not having the equal standard of the railway service in Semenanjong where they have the good comfortable cabins and fast train service. There is even air-conditioning too. Here they don’t even get to sit on comfortable seats, and they are forced to sit with cement and cargo.

For the KK to Beaufort route it takes about 2.5 hours and the route from Beaufort to Tenom takes another 3 to 4 hours if there is no derailment or engine break-down. The locomotive is a diesel power engine and it is a museum piece, Hiew said it might be as old as him, and he remembers when he was 10 years old, he rode in the same old train before.

The MP said it is impossible to have such pieces of museum item still running on our railway. It is old and not reliable and yet these old junks are still taking the people for a ride.

What is the government going to do for us, or they are just going to let these junks run until they fall into pieces and retire permanently? Why after spending so many hundred millions of ringgits, we still get such train service, there must be something very seriously wrong, ‘Another project by Barisan National’?

SAPP rethinks plan, eyes state seats

Cornered Sabah-based SAPP may just focus on contesting
exclusively in state seats in the general election and
leave the parliamentary constituencies to peninsular
based parties.
By Luke Rintod  of FMT

KOTA KINABALU: With the general election looming over the horizon, top leaders in opposition Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) are ‘aggressively examining” the party’s chances and strategic options.

With the humiliating defeat in Batu Sapi parliamentary by-election last year still fresh in mind, SAPP is now said to be toying with the idea of focusing on the 60 state seats at stake.

Mindef says RM493.3m additional budget necessary to ‘maintain’ Scorpene subs

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 2 — The Defence Ministry received an additional RM493.3 million allocation this year, and said today the amount was needed to maintain the country’s two Scorpene submarines.

The additional amount raises the ministry’s total budget to whopping total of RM11 billion.

“The main purpose is to maintain our Scorpene submarines as that expense was not included in the budget,” The Star quoted Defence Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (picture) as saying.

Resign Or Snap Election - Here are the reasons

By Aiso Ngaran

As much as I would like to stop writing about PM Najib administration, the plot just got interesting and I think he may just hit the bull’s eye as far as my prediction that his downfall may be faster than his predecessor, Abdullah Badawi, is concerned. Compared with Najib, Badawi now seems like a cute adorable little kitten, who merely likes to sleep (on the job). Malaysians tend to be more forgiving on lazy prime minister but not a prime minister who lies, cheats, brutal, dirty (allegation on Mongolian Altantuya’s murder), hypocrite but above all stupid yet arrogant.

Polls dry run shows BN can lose Perak, Negri Sembilan

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 1 — The ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) could lose Perak and Negri Sembilan in the next general elections, according to results of a recent dry run. Unless component parties put popular faces and ensure the grassroots machinery garner support from voters.

The Malaysian Insider understands that the Umno election dry run also showed that the BN fortress of Johor could see up to 15 out of the 56 state seats go to their political opponents Pakatan Rakyat (PR), something unheard before Election 2008 when the ruling coalition lost six seats.

Mysterious deaths in Bakun Dam area

Despite being notified of several mysterious deaths in the

KUCHING: Ten people who were hired by the Sarawak Forest Corporation (SFC) to “save” animals from being drowned, following the impoundment of the Bakun Dam, are now dead.

Socialism has vital role to play in M’sia

Leaderless PKR Sabah call for autonomy

Joe Fernandez

Eighteen out of 26 PKR divisions in the state agreed on holding a secret ballot soon on whether party chief Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail should continue to head the state chapter.

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah PKR chiefs, by an overwhelming majority, have reportedly endorsed an informal plan to “demand full autonomy for the state chapter from the party headquarters”.

The consequences of a rejection of the autonomy demand, according to a high-ranking party insider privy to the decision by the Sabah PKR division chiefs, are “a foregone conclusion subject to the right timing”.

By ViewAct

Has it ever crossed your mind how and why dirt keeps being kicked up against PM Najib and his wife recently? Yet there doesn’t seem to be much activity from his deputy. Have you also noticed that not many came to Najib’s rescue when he screwed up big time against Bersih 2.0? Instead of his “Championed” Malay brothers, we saw MCA sending two representatives trying to shine his dirty shoe but to no avail.

We also have a 24 million ring, and a “worth-a-fortune” bracelet allegedly belonging to the wife of the PM, and its photo and custom screenshot of the alleged purchase surfacing all over the internet. Well, this too receives much lesser “backing up” from all PM Najib’s assistants.

First of all, did any of your many advisers try to stop you from unleashing tear gas on those demonstrators? No?

Difference: Between White and Blue Collar

A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of BMW Car when he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car.

The mechanic shouted across the garage, ? Hello Doctor!! Please come over here for a minute."

The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic.

The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively, "So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind "em, put in new parts, and when I finish this will work as a new one. So how come you get the big money, when you and me are doingbasically the same work? " .
