Dear Muhyiddin

God’s peace be with you. I caught your Covid-19 stimulus package press conference on TV the other day. A good package? I am hopeless with all the figures bandied about, and there are experts aplenty bisecting and dissecting the RM250b package, so I wont even go there. I will trust Dr Jeyakumar Devaraj in his […]

Even as the rakyat rejoiced in the days after GE14, UMNO was given the Kiss of Life

There’s a fair bit of speculation in this post. You draw your own conclusions. “Looking back during the past few days, it is now quite clear there was a plan to form a unity government without PH” : Xavier Jayakumar, as reported in the Malay Mail on 28th February, 2020. I am not sure about […]

Dr M is not the man to lead a unity government

“Politics, politicians, and political parties prioritise politics too much to the point they forget the country is facing economic and health problems that threaten the country. I believe, right or wrong, politics and political parties must be set aside for now” – Dr M, on why he wants to lead a unity government. “…this option […]

Amanah, DAP, PKR, the end is nigh come the 15th GE unless you turn the ABU votes of days gone by into “We love you” votes

I have deliberately omitted addressing this post to Bersatu, with good reason, which I will make known in the course of this post. Anyone remember Loh Gwo Burne? The man behind the camera in the VK Lingam scandal? He stood on a PKR ticket in the 12th GE, in the parliamentary constituency of Kelana Jaya. […]

Third Force, people? Yes or No?

I have written quite a bit about the 3rd Force in the past. And, of late, its being spoken of again. Even Zahid Hamidi, in an effort to displace Alan Perera and Indi Nadarajah as the local happening comedy guys, has had his say, suggesting that “Umno and its allies can become the nation’s “third […]

Umat Islam di Malaysia sudah lama dilanda dengan berbagai pandangan berkenaan isu ketuanan Melayu dari golongan para politik, khususnya yang sendiri mengaku diri mereka sebagai menganuti agama Islam. Saya sendiri merujuk serta memegang kepada khutbah terakhir Baginda Nabi SAW di Arafah yang telah bersabda, antara lain, bahawa semua manusia berasal dari Adam dan Hawa, tidak […]

Dear Mahathir,

God’s peace be with you. I read with interest the report on Free Malaysia Today on things you said in relation to your attendance at the Malay Dignity Congress, and some advice you extended to Malays, generally. In another FMT report, you are reported to have “dismissed criticisms that the Malay Dignity Congress is racist, […]

On 1st December, 1955, on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama, USA, Rosa Parks, aged 42, and seated in the section reserved for coloured folk, was told by the driver to give up her seat to a white passenger as the section reserved for whites was full. The law, as it was then, required Rosa to […]

Some years back, when Bernard Dompok was helming the National Unity Ministry, I attended his talk at the Assumption Church in PJ. During Q&A, I put this to Bernard : I could not find the word Bumiputra in the Federal Constitution. And the Reid Commission Report clearly envisaged that the “special position” of the Malays […]
