Watch Your Action and Your Word

It is Generation Election time! People are out to talk bad about Pakatan Raykat---be it true or untrue. Just to creat doubts in people's mind about what Pakatan is all about. By so doing, the opponent stand to win some fence sitters, sure to get a few more votes.

NO POINT doing the same thing like them. Need not have to justify yourself for things you did not do, or things not true. Just leaving it as it is. Instead, be positive.....telling the Rakyat what Pakatan will do and what BN had done to make Malaysia in great debts.

You can also just pass a statement..... what is said about Pakatan, Rakyat Malaysia surely can tell the truth from election propaganda ! The truth is in the hearts of all rakyat Malaysia.

Member parties in Pakatan must not give cause for attack or faults for descrediting the achievement of Pakatan state government. Please be People Oriented in all policies. Do not cause hardship to any sectors in our society. Be people friendly in our practices.

Time to watch out for words and actions that may give a bad reputation of Pakatan. Whatever that is wrong, apologise and make it right. Remember, Pakatan has dome more in just 3 years ....what if it is given the chance to Putrajaya.Much more can be done for the benefit of the rakyat and the nation.

Get going......be prepared.

Move with the Momentum

Now that the court of law has played its role and justice prevail, the whole nation is awaken to the People Power and JUSTICE for ALL.
It is time to pick up this momentum and go on leading the people of Malaysia to uphold this truth and need in the country. Save Malaysia from possible bankruptcy and unbearable conrruption and lost of national revenue. Put Pakatan Rakyat into Putrajaya and experience a return of power to the Rakyat and to the Rule of Law.

Go around telling the people that when the Law is uphold and honoured, justice prevail for ALL people. The wrong is punished and the right ones are respected.

Do not bring in the matter of the court case into any Election talks. It serves no purposes at all. Be a matured politician, instead, emphasize that we wanted to uphold the rule of law and rid of human interuption into all government machinery. We must respect the rule of law to that extend that even when a PM is wrong, the PM will also be brought before the court of law like some other countries.

Encourage the Rakyat to speak out and to express their People Power in a peaceful mean, so that the rule of law is sustained. This time, if the Rakyat is not happy the way the nation is experiencing, corruption etc, save Malaysia by voting in a new government.

Move on..... move into Putrajaya

Who Is To Lead?

The question that rings in the ears of the voters: if Anwar is put away by the court, be it fair or unfair, who will lead Keadilan and the Pakatan?

From the look of the game, many would wish Anwar be put away just before the general election. Thus causing a great disadvantage to the winning of Pakatan Rakyat.

How would Pakatan tackle this possibility?
1. Anwar must be ready to appoint his successor to KeAdilan.
2.Pakatan should express their full support for a Malay PM when Pakatan win the coming general election.
3.Pakatan Rakyat would form a Consultative Council with the PM as the Chief, and leaders of each Pakatan partners (from other Pakatan parties).
4.The Consultative Council is to study any major policy making decision before bringing up to the open.
5.Let the Rakyat know for sure, with or without Anwar, Pakatan still can take over Putrajaya and rule the nation.
6.If Anwar is put away, when Pakatan rules, Anwar will be vindicated and restored.
7.DAP must be ready to show its multiracial party composition in this general election.
8.PAS must show its maturity as a political party and not harping on religious matters. Instead, upholding religious value like, kindness, love, justice, equality, honest, uorughtness etc in its practices. Leave the religious activity to the religious leaders.
9.KeAdilan must work to uphold the Constitution, giving equal attention to all Rakayat while helping to grow up a progressive, independent and innovative Malay population.

Act fast and get the election gear ready for the BIG challenge. Be sure that whoever is left out in the election, they must show TEAM spirit to support whoever is place as candidates. Rakyat must win, and we all go all out to save Malaysia. Leave personal agenda aside.

Get Them to See the True Picture

Election is just round the corner. Within this short span of time, Pakatan must get into the grassroot level in desa and kampong. Just go and tell them the national debts, the orang kaya among the ruling class, and how much MONEY is lost to individuals.

Next share with them the various achievement of Pakatan in the Pakatan held states.
Visualise with them what Pakatan can do and will do if only ALL RAKYAT wanted the revenue of the nation to return and share among the rakyat, so that the billions thus saved can lighten up the burden of ALL.

Pakatan must get the votes of this grassroots level, they are simple people and not expose to the truth in the internet.

Some efforts must be made to get the Sarawak and Sabah voters to understand what had happened in the peninsular for the past 54 years. Now is the time to check the rotting away of the nation by getting Pakatan into power. Plead with them that Pakatan needs the partnership of serious political parties from Sarawak and Sabah. Pakatan rejects opportunists. Pakatan wanted people who are in to save Malaysia and to cerat a better place for our future generation. People who will build up the national reserves and willing to live on their pay and allowances as a YB and an MP. Not fattening themselves with public fund.

In order to get into Putrajaya, Sarawak and Sabah's support is vital.
In order to get more states into Pakatan's hand, the grassroot level need to be told of the truth and visualise the prospect of a Pakatan government.

God bless Malaysia.

If PR win, it is RAKYAT's winning Game

I read an article from a blog saying:
“Malays will lose their rights and power should Pakatan Rakyat (PR) win more federal seats in the next general election, an Umno leader said today.”
This is merely a misleading statement. It is also a racist statement. It is NOT a Malaysian statement.

I would rather said, if PR win this election and seated in Putrajaya, UMNO’s dream of “jadi kaya kerana politik habislah!!” If PR win this round and be placed in Putrajaya, Rakyat menang, rakyat SEMUA kaum dan masyarakat.

The article quoted Datuk Ahmad Maslan as this:
“The Malay language will be lost, say goodbye to the Malay Sultans, the opposition DAP do not even respect the royal institution ... they have never accepted royal titles even though they have been offered them,” he said here.”

How could it be…a great lie and bad assumption. Bahasa Melayu will still be the National language. Our Monarchy Democracy will still be existing. PR will not play around with the honoured Constitution like BN. PR gives high respect and honour to our Constitution.

The article even quotes as saying:
“Say goodbye to Islam, because they (DAP) are agents of Christianisation ... in talking about the Malay agenda we cannot run away from this,” said Ahmad.”

BN members must be thinking that PR will not respect the Constitution like BN. No way. Islam will still be the official religion of Malaysia. Other religious groups will be respected as stated in the Constitution.

Imagine this: UMNO said, “ say goodbye to Islam.” MCA said, “ PAS will declare Hudud Law in Malaysia.” UMNO tried to scare the Malay community, MCA tried to scare the Chinese community. Now which is which? Who is right? As far as PR is concern, abide by the Constitution. No changed.

The article is trying to say, Malay will lose power….. not true. UMNO will lose power, true and correct. Rakyat will get the power and benefits of national prosperity, but UMNOputra will be the losers. Always remember, it is NOT a racial strife, it is the strife of Rakyat Malaysia to save Malaysia from being bankrupt due to …..no secret to all.

So please do not be taken in by the lies and misleading statement of any politicians, but vote with your simple common sense as a Rakyat Malaysia.

Malaysia Should Have Made It Too,but...

BY *AHMAD MUSTAPHA
*The writer is a nephew of Dr Mahathir.

Singapore's Minister Mentor, Lee Kuan Yew, who was Singapore 's founding father, has always been very direct in his comments. This was the man who outsmarted the communists in Singapore (with the innocent help of Malaya then and the willing help of the British) and who later outwitted the British and outpaced Malaysia in all spheres. Singapore practices corrupt-free meritocracy and Malaysia affirmative action. The former attracted all the best brains and the latter chased out all the brains. The Singapore cabinet consists of dedicated and intelligent technocrats whereas Malaysia has one of the most unwieldy cabinets. Not only that, brain wise it was below par not even good for the kampong. With that kind of composition, one that is very brainy, naturally Singapore , with no natural resources could outstrip Malaysia in every aspect of development.

Malaysia , on the other hand, was too much preoccupied with its Malayness and the illusory 'Ketuanan Melayu' and was also more interested in useless mega iconic development rather than real social and economic development. Whenever Kuan Yew utters anything that deemed to be a slight on Malaysia , voices were raised admonishing him. Malaysia would never dare to face reality. That Singapore had shown that it could survive was a slap on those who believed that Singapore would fold up once it left Malaysia . Therefore it was natural that these doomsayers would try to rationalise their utterances to be in their favour to combat on whatever Kuan Yew commented. Its political jealousy.

Singapore achieved its development status without any fanfare. But here in Malaysia , a development that was deceptive was proclaimed as having achieved development status. It was trumpeted as an achievement that befits first world status. This was self delusion. Malaysians are led to believe into a make believe world, a dream world. The leaders who themselves tend to believe in their own fabricated world did not realise the people were not taken in by this kind of illusion.

Lee Kuan Yew believed in calling a spade a spade. I was there in Singapore when the People's Action Party won the elections in 1959. He was forthright in his briefing to party members as to what was expected of them and what Singapore would face in the future. Ideologically, I did not agree with him. We in the University of Malaya Socialist Club had a different interpretation of socialist reconstruction. But he was a pragmatist and wanted to bring development and welfare to the Singaporeans. Well! He succeeded.

Malaysia was so much embroiled in racial politics and due to the fear of losing political power, all actions taken by the main party in power was never targeted towards bringing wealth to all. Wealth was distributed to the chosen few only. They were the cronies and the backers of the party leadership to perpetuate their own selfish ends. Seeing the efficiency and the progress achieved by Singapore caused the Malaysian leadership to suffer from an inferiority complex. That Malaysia should suffer from this complex was of its own making. In a recent interview, Kuan Yew said that Malaysia could have done better if only it treated its minority Chinese and Indian population fairly. Instead they were completely marginalised and many of the best brains left the country in drove. He added that Singapore was a standing indictment to what Malaysia could have done differently. He just hit the nail right there on the head.

Malaysia recently celebrated its 50th year of independence with a bagful of uncertainties. The racial divide has become more acute. The number of Malay graduates unemployed is on the increase. And this aspect can be very explosive. But sad to see that no positive actions have been taken to address these social ills. Various excuses were given by Malaysian leaders why Singapore had far outstripped Malaysia in all aspects of social and economic advancement. Singapore was small, they rationalised and therefore easy to manage. Singapore was not a state but merely an island.

There was one other aspect that Malaysia practises and that is to politicise all aspects of life. All government organs and machinery were 'UMNO-ised'. This was to ensure that the party will remain in power. Thus there was this misconception by the instruments of government as to what national interest is and what UMNO vested interest is. UMNO vested interest only benefited a few and not the whole nation. But due to the UMNO-isation of the various instruments of government, the country under the present administration had equated UMNO vested interest as being that of national interest. Thus development became an avenue of making money and not for the benefit of the people. The fight against corruption took a back seat. Transparency was put on hold. And the instruments of government took it to be of national interest to cater to the vested interest of UMNO. Enforcement of various enactments and laws was selective. Thus a 'palace' in Kelang, APs cronies and close-one-eye umno MPs could exist without proper procedure. Corruption infested all govt departments, the worse is the police and lately even in the judiciary.

Singapore did not politicise its instruments of government. If ever politicisation took place, it is guided by national interest. To be efficient and to be the best in the region was of paramount importance. Thus all the elements like corruption, lackadaisical attitude towards work and other black elements, which would retard such an aim, were eliminated. Singapore naturally had placed the right priority in it's pursuit to achieve what is best for its people. This is the major difference between these two independent countries.

Malaysia in its various attempts to cover up its failures embarked on several diversions. It wanted its citizens to be proud that the country had the tallest twin-tower in the world, although the structure was designed and built by foreigners. Its now a white-elephant wasting away. It achieved in sending a man into space at an exorbitant price. For what purpose? These are what the Malays of old would say "menang sorak" (hollow victories).

It should be realised that administering a country can be likened to managing a corporate entity. If the management is efficient and dedicated and know what they are doing, the company will prosper. The reverse will be if the management is poor and bad. The company will go bust. There are five countries around this region. There is Malaysia , and then Indonesia . To the east there is the Philippines and then there is that small enclave called the Sultanate of Brunei . All these four countries have abundance of natural resources but none can lay claim to have used all these resources to benefit the people. Poverty was rampant and independence had not brought in any significant benefits to the people. But tiny Singapore without any resources at all managed to bring development to its citizens. It had one of the best public MRT transport systems and airlines in the world and it is a very clean city state. Their universities, health care, ports are among the best in the world. It is impossible to compare what Singapore has achieved to what all these four countries had so far achieved. It was actually poor management and corruption, and nothing more. Everything is done for the vested interest of the few.

Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines and the Sultanate of Brunei need good management teams. They would not be able to do this on their own steam. I would advise that they call on Kuan Yew to show them what good governance is. Why look East to Japan when it is just next door across the causeway.

Take the risk to change

**Just felt that it is right time to read an article that came into my mail today.**

A primary one student can also claim easily that he can deliver. In fact all salesmen, businessmen and any Tom Dick and Harry can promise and say "I can deliver".

I was disconnected from the virtual and outside world for almost a month and have no idea what the local political scenes have turned into. While eating the bungkus nasi lemak I read from the wrapped star paper headlines "I can deliver - Najib Razak".Today after getting connected again and having read most of the political news, I wonder what the PM meant by "I can deliver". By just giving a salesman type of answer "I can deliver" means nothing if the whole system of manufacturing the product is not working in sync.

Way back in the late 90's when I was in the US, I applied for a delivery job in a restaurant. The boss asked me one question 'can you deliver?' and of course my answer was 'I can deliver'. He started laughing and told me that he had fired six delivery men within six months, all answering the same question with 'I can deliver'

I asked what went wrong.The boss then explained, either the car broke down frequently, not able to read the road map, poor working relationship with co-workers or flirting around. I then assured the boss that these will not be my problems and to try me out for a month. Since the restaurant was in urgent need of a delivery man I was employed.

Within two months I was named the fastest delivery man in town and of course the boss was laughing all the way to the bank because I can make so many deliveries for him each day. What the people wanted when they order delivery was that the food arrives in time and still in warm and tasty condition. I seldom cross the speed limit and never got caught for any traffic offenses. There were complaints to the boss that I deliver too fast, no joke. So, how did I successfully make the delivery? Here is how.Within two weeks of employment I changed my old broken down Fort Escort for a brand new Nissan Sentra. Inside the kitchen there were the Chinese (China) chef, Indonesian helpers (preparing the raw ingredients), Americans taking the phone orders and packaging. I work very closely with them all. Once orders were taken, the American will let me know the addresses (I always reminded the Americans to make sure the addresses are always correct) and I will study the map and find the locations. Next I will work with the chef to speed up on the delivery orders. The American will follow the list that I provided that highlights which address I will deliver first and packed them accordingly to the routes that I will be driving.You can deliver successfully only when the whole system is functioning properly.

Najib Razak alone cannot make any delivery if he fails to clean up the whole system that runs the government. The whole system is rotten to the core. Even his own DPM is not working or talking in sync with his policies. How can the PM then make any delivery? Sending his cybertroopers to attack the opposition with unsubstantiated claim of wrong doings, sexual misconduct and created lies upon lies do not help either.Giving out goodies only near election time is no delivery but an insult to the voters. Playing cool on the outside but cold inside that calls for "crushed bodies and lost lives" ain't delivery. Flip flopping and making u-turns after policy statements cannot count as delivery. Copying from others and treated as yours are not delivery.Without making changes to the judiciary, PDRM, MACC, EC, laws that hinder democracy and race and religious relationships and appointing suitable, qualified and capable candidates to important Minister posts such as finance and education I can bet that Najib can only deliver zero.

Today PM Najib has given us very good advice, "Don't be afraid to take risks", so what are you all waiting for, grumbling or being indecisive about. BN is Umno that has been in power for over five decades and we have seen and heard how bad they are and yet we keep voting them in because we dare not take the risk. With Najib's advice, we can now take the risks to CHANGE the bad and filthy Umno government. Go for it, believe me, this risk is worth taking.
