Mengundi untuk masa hadapan

Oleh Tommy Thomas

“There is a tide in the affairs of men,

Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;

Omitted, all the voyage of their life

Is bound in shallows and in miseries.

On such a full sea are we now afloat,

And we must take the current when it serves,

Or lose our ventures.”            

 - William Shakespeare (“Julius Ceasar”, Act IV iii 215)

Bayangkan Britain ditadbir oleh parti politik yang sama, contohnya, Parti Buruh, selama 55 tahun berturut-turut dari tahun 1957. Ataupun Amerika Syarikat ditadbir oleh Parti Republikan untuk tempoh sama yang berterusan, tanpa henti.

Itulah takdir Malaysia semenjak Merdeka. Pilihan raya umum ke-13, yang mesti diadakan sebelum 28 Jun tahun ini, memberi rakyat Malaysia satu peluang untuk bebas dari monopoli kuasa politik yang dipelopori UMNO, pada asalnya, berlindung di sebalik Perikatan dan setelah itu, sebagai Barisan Nasional.

The same threat of Phillippines swallowing Sabah if...

Joe Fernandez' note

KOTA KINABALU : There's a comment in Malaysia Today that if Sabah opts for freedom, the Philippines is waiting (meaning to swallow Sabah).

This is the same bogeyman story that we were told in 1963 by the Malayan Government and the British: that the Philippines and Indonesia are the big crocodiles in the region, waiting to swallow Sabah and Sarawak after the British leave.

Bishops expose ploy to convert under-aged students to Islam (Part 1)

Islamisation at matriculation college
In Part 1, the Catholic Church in Sabah has exposed a covert ploy to convert under-aged students to Islam in Labuan and complained that non-Muslim students at the Labuan Matriculation College between 17 and 18 years old, “are constantly subjected to various forms of harassment, ridicule and pressure to change their religion.”

What the bishops found out shocked them. Some teachers there were proselytising Christian students resulting in some converting to Islam. The called for full probe after which a strongly worded letter jointly signed by the four Catholic bishops of Sabah together with a report prepared by the Sabah Catholic Diocesan Centre was despatched to the highest levels with copies to Education Minister Muyhiddin Yasin, who is also the Deputy Prime Minister as well as two Sabahan Christian ministers, Bernard Dompok and Dr Maximus Ongkili, as well as to Murphy Pakiam, President of the Bishops’ Conference of Malaysia.

I accuse once again Dr Mahathir for racism in Malayasia

This is the most damning article I have come across on the Mamak-Pseudo Malay’s granting of citizenship to Filipino and Indonesian Muslims in Sabah in 1994 so that they may vote his political party into power.

And what was worse than that criminal act was his utterance that Tunku Abdul Rahman did something even more outrageous in granting citizenship to Chinese, Indians and other non-Malays when Malaya achieved independence from the British in 1957.

I ACCUSE ONCE AGAIN, DR. MAHATHIR MOHAMAD, EX-PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA (1981-2003)!!

Once again, I regard it as my duty to pay homage to and keep alive what I regard as the greatest newspaper article of all time -

Bishops expose ploy to convert under-aged students to Islam (Part 1)

Written by  Bob Teoh
The Catholic Church in Sabah has exposed a covert ploy to convert under-aged students to Islam in Labuan.

In a strongly worded letter signed by the four Roman Catholic bishops of Sabah, they complained that non-Muslim students at the Labuan Matriculation College between 17 and 18 years old, "are constantly subjected to various forms of harassment, ridicule and pressure to change their religion."

The residential college is under the matriculation division of the Ministry of Education and has an enrolment of 2,771 students from Sarawak, Sabah and Labuan. About half of them are Catholics and Protestants and the rest made up of Muslims other than 77 of them who are Buddhists.
