But Bravo!! No Denials Here .... At Last.

Nazri calls Dr M a racist for defending BTN

By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 7 — Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz called Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad a “bloody racist” for defending the Biro Tata Negara (BTN) courses, and reasserted the Cabinet’s earlier decision to overhaul the programme.

He also slammed Umno’s Utusan Malaysia newspaper, saying its “denial syndrome” was making him laugh.

The minister in the prime minister’s department also repeated his stand “everybody knows what the BTN is,” so there was nothing to hide.

“You must be a Malaysian whether you’re a minister or not. You must walk your talk. Don’t just because when you were PM, you wanted everyone to support you, you’re Malaysian and the moment you’re no longer PM, that’s it, only talk about the Malays so I cannot accept his comment. When you read his blog it is bloody racist.

“I strongly feel the BTN courses must be in line with the 1 Malaysia slogan by the PM,” he said.

Dr Mahathir had said yesterday that there was no need to revamp BTN’s training modules in the current form and that it was suitable for instilling the patriotic spirit among Malaysians.

To know more of on why Nazri-Taxi was apparently pissed with the senile old racist man's opinion, click Dr M says criticisms against BTN an ‘exaggeration’.

**Let's just fasten our seat-belts, and hold back the standing ovation for now, folks - this may just be a prelude to something nasty which they have up their sleeves. After all, Nazri of all people, isn't really known for being honest or advocating pluralism, In fact, he's taken to "talking cock" like ducks to water - and has taken it to great heights, I might add. Donno about you - but I for one, would rather err on the side of caution.
Only time will tell if he will flip-flop on this statement, or resort to "redefining" it- after all it is the trademark of those in UMNO, who work with deceit as their raison-d'etre.
Let's see where he goes from here ....

Denial Again ...

“Teoh Beng Hock’s case is nothing. It is a very small case.” – Ahmad Said’s guilty mind speaking~ LKS

The outgoing Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Chief Commissioner Datuk Seri Ahmad Said gravely damaged his own case that he was not stepping down early because of political pressure.

Denying that the mysterious death of DAP political aide Teoh Beng Hock at the MACC headquarters at Plaza Masalam, Shah Alam on July 16, 2009 had attributed to his early retirement, Ahmad said:

“Teoh Beng Hock’s case is nothing. It is a very small case. We have handled much bigger cases.’’

This is generally received by Malaysians as Ahmad Said’s guilty mind speaking, admitting that the MACC cannot exonerate itself or exculpate responsibility for Teoh’s death whatever the outcome of the ongoing inquest to Teoh’s death.

Ahmad’s statement is heartless and grossly insensitive, rubbing salt into the wounds in the hearts of all decent and justice-loving Malaysia.

How can the head of an independent and professional anti-corruption agency dismiss Teoh’s mysterious and shocking death as “a very small case” and of no consequence?

How many lives must be lost in MACC precincts before they become major issues?

Ahmad’s insensitive and offensive statement about Teoh’s death as a “very small case” is only exceeded by his earlier distasteful statement implying that Teoh had committed suicide, saying that “if people investigated could not withstand the pressure and jumped from the building, there was nothing that MACC could do”.

Ahmad’s statement is also patently untrue, as there can be no denial that Teoh’s mysterious death and MACC’s culpability had been the single biggest factor in bringing Malaysia’s ranking in the Transparency International (TI) Corruption Perception Index (CPI) 2009 by a few notches – with Malaysia falling nine places to 56^th position from 47^th last year and an unprecedented drop of 0.4 CPI score from 5.0 last year to 4.6 this year.

Before he steps down as MACC Chief Commissioner, can Ahmad spell out the reasons why Malaysia’s ranking and score in the TI CPI 2009 had suffered such a grave double plunge, and to let Malaysians know the role played by Teoh’s mysterious death at MACC headquarters for the loss of national and international confidence in the independence, professionalism and integrity of MACC?

In fact, Ahmad has provided Datuk Abu Kassim Mohamed who is to take over as the new MACC chief the opportunity to show whether Malaysians can expect a real difference in the MACC culture, benchmark and modus operandi with a change of MACC leadership – whether Abu Kassim endorses or dissociates himself from Ahmad’s outrageous statement that Teoh’s death is “a very small case” just as whether Abu Kassim will dissociate himself from another of Ahmad’s outrageous attitude that “as far as MACC is concerned, there is no difference between corruption involving a few ringgit and corruption involving a few hundred millions of ringgit”.

Yippee!! It's the season for Umno's "May 13" rhetoric again ...

"We admit that we made a mistake,"

The reports demonstrate how Utusan Malaysia
has somehow managed to turn a childish act into a racial issue.
Its 1 Dec 2009 editorial equated stepping on the photographs of
Mohd Osman Mohd Jailu, Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi and Hee Yit Foong
as tantamount to challenging the dignity of Malay Malaysian leaders.

Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil upped the ante even further
by calling the DAP's behaviour "extremely dangerous" and said it could lead to violence.
"What would happen if there are patriotic or extreme and hot-tempered Malay [Malaysians]
who use this as an excuse to rise up and take revenge because they feel their race has been insulted? Who would take responsibility if violence broke out?" she asked.

Barisan Nasional-appointed Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir
also couldn't help bringing up race in his comments.
He accused the DAP leaders of acting according to their racial political ideology,
which, he claimed, they had been practising all this while.

Deceit - Ruling Ignorance, Fear & Apathy

"....This casts serious doubt on the Malaysian Government’s
respect for the sanctity of contracts and the rule of law.
Let’s not talk about spurring investment .....
if we fail to understand the importance of abiding by contractual obligations."
- Tengku Razaleigh, Honouring our agreements

****************************************


*****************************************

With a certain ruling elite in this country - DECEIT is the only way they know how to rule.
From the 20-point agreement with Sabah, NEP, to the Federal Constitution, to ISA/ Police act, to oil royalties, to sabotage of non-BN held states, to legalised Illegals with "Bumi" status, to the Bank Bumiputra/Islam financial scandals, to Chin Peng denied entry, to OPV, to Bakun, to PKFZ - one thing remains consistent with Umno - DECEIT!

Change starts from Rakyat - so said the article on Malaysia Today by Tohkong Mosjid. Indeed, it is as true as can be. To depend on our politicians to bring about any change is at best, foolhardy. Politicians (even the clerics, in fact) are concerned with only one thing - power to rule over the masses. It is however, quite a wonder, when you see the people drowning in their fear and apathy depending on these very people to bring about the changes they desire.

When things don't work out as they predict or hope, they're quick to complain about those who have made every effort against all the odds stacked against them, to bring about that change. It isn't enough that changes are being made to the extent they're empowered to do - Malaysians demand "Instant Noodles" & quick-fixes to all the problems that plague the country. Never mind if the Federal Constitution is raped, never mind if the dispossessed are trampled on, never mind if your neighbour faces injustice ....
As long as their bread is buttered and on the table, Malaysians don't give a fig about anything that goes on under the UMNO regime. It doesn't matter if UMNO whispers sweet little lies as the sexual predator does to his victims- Malaysians love it. and beg for more!!

those who wish to tyrannise will do so; for tyrants are active and ardent,
and will devote themselves in the name of any number of gods,
religious and otherwise, to put shackles upon sleeping men.”
- Voltaire
******************************

Just yesterday, I had a man come and announce proudly to me that he's "politically active". When asked which party he worked for, he proudly announced that he was with (of all parties) Gerakan - the neutered lapdog of UMNO!! All I could say was, "Despite all the evidence presented before them, Malaysians are generally quite stupid politically & such suckers for some feelgood sweet little lies from the ruling elite". The worst part about meeting him was the fact that he agreed with me!! I then went to get him some peanuts, which he gladly accepted as continued talking his usual crap.

Frankly - I admire RPKs resilience at his "crusade" into raising awareness among the public. As things are, I'm beginning to get quite frustrated with the general public who fall for all the stupid lies dished out by the Umno regime. I'm not so sure that we can make much of a difference when we try to save the country from the wolves, when the people willingly become sheep following their "Judas Goat" in Umno, to the slaughterhouse.As long as Umno rules - the modus operandi of the so-called BN alliance Govt (the Mahathir way, i.e.) will remain as DECEIT.

Ultimately - it all would depend on the people, if they want to treat or live with the Malaysian Disease of Fear and Apathy. If those who accept Umno/BN as the only way for Malaysia to progress, especially if the Malays allow themselves to be hoodwinked into believing that only Racism, Piracy, apartheid and Umno can save them - this country is doomed, and I better keep my bags packed.
Of late, there was a book published on Mahathir's exploits in his 22 yrs. I liked one forum entry entitled "Buku Panas!! Mahathir Songlap RM100 billion" ...... let's see what Mr. "Clean, Efficient and Trustworthy" has got to say about this.

Shortchanging : The "1-Malaysia" Way ....

Hospital assistants running clinics causing anxiety

MalaysianMirror Wednesday, 25 November 2009 08:40

We would like to raise the concerns of many individuals who are wondering about the quality of "1Malaysia clinics" that are manned by hospital assistants. Whilst the Federation of Private Medical Practitioners’ Associations of Malaysia supports and encourages more clinics to be set up, they must comply with the law. The law clearly states that clinics must be manned by a registered medical practitioner at all times to ensure quality care. The Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act (1998) and Regulations (2006) require that all private clinics have specific written policies and standard operating procedures to that effect. We were surprised that the government had anounced in Budget 2010 that it would be setting up the 1Malaysia clinics manned by hospital assistants, which is inconsistent with the law. It appears that the government is now promoting a lower standard for private healthcare whereas it would have raided and shut down such clinics in the past. If hospital assistants are allowed to run the 1Malaysia clinics, does it mean private clinics in general can now also do so? The government must clarify this point. A clinic by any other name is still a clinic. The public demands that all of them offer the full medical services expected of a typical clinic in the treatment of ailments. The majority of 1Malaysia clinics are concentrated in urban areas where they should have been set up in villages and urban fringes where they are most needed. The government needs to review such health and medical resources to ensure the poor in both urban and rural areas are best served.
