The next elections in Malaysia will see the downfall of the present government, that is a forgone conclusion, and Najib and the Barisan know it only too well, but they are not prepared to accept it.
Now Najib and his not so intelligent cousin Hishamuddin of course are at their wits end trying to see how to manipulate the situation such that they can win the elections even if they lose it. It sounds like a joke, but it isn't, this is a real possibility.
Najib tries to portray himself as a moderate, and used his office to hoodwink unsuspecting Malaysians over and over again.
Bersih an independent body had asked for electoral reforms especially in the aftermath of the Sarawak Elections where Ambiga was refused entry into Sarawak by its notorious Chief Minsiter and Najib's close friend. Little needs to be said about this man his reputation speaks for itself, he is now an internationally known character and if you read the international press you'll know for what.
All changes taking place right now is to suit the present regime and not to ensure a free and fair elections.
Now like never before ex-government people who have held high office are begining to reveal that something sinister is about to happen.
Former minister and veteran Umno member Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir said
that introducing indelible ink would not ensure free and fair elections
and there are more pressing issues that need to be addressed, although he did not go into specifics about these "pressing issues," one thing is certain, he has made it clear that the Government uses the mass media to propagate lies against the opposition. This has come from an UMNO vetran in his own right.
Kadir has recommended the electoral reforms of Bersih 2 which were mostly ignored during the first round of recent reforms to the electoral system be introduced, he went on further to say that the recommendations so far were very minor and insignificant in ensuring a free and fair election. This is not coming from Chen Man Hin, the former DAP chairman but from Abdul Kadir Sheik Fadzir a former Minster in the UMNO cabinet.
The passing in haste of the "Peaceful Assembly Bill in Parliament" is to curtail the ability of the people to protest any scam at the next General Elections. Najib is getting prepared to do just that - rig and cheat at the next elections, he has to become PM by hook or by crook, like his father did in 1969, when he gave the country an ultimatum, that the opposition joins him or there will be no democracy. He was crazy for power just like his son is today, in fact Najib is even more crazy.
Crazy people do crazy things, they'll even kill to achieve their aims and we have seen that happen.
The former EC chairperson Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman has called for the EC to be
given full powers in conducting elections without having to "share it
with other agencies."
This man has come out now and spoken, he has said that he dared not do things in full accordance with the law and utilising the full powers bestowed on him by his position because he was afraid of the government of the day. Now after his retirement he says, he answers only to God and does not have to fear the political masters, a clear indication that the EC is controlled by the government.
Abdul Rashid asked that EC be given full powers in conducting elections without having to share it with other agencies something this government is rather fond of doing and which is illegal, as the conduct of election is the prerogative of an independent Elections Commission without interference from other bodies. It is an independent body and does not even have to report to the PM.
In response our Deputy Prime Minster has come out an said, "its current form has proven effective therefore overhauling it is unnecessary."
Isn't he meddling with the powers of the EC?
Who is he to make that call?
Isn't the EC an independent body?
Is this not clear evidence that the government actually meddles with the functions of the EC?
Well that was the impression given to Malaysians by Abdul Rashid Rahman now that he is not in office and does not have to kow tow to all those UMNO big wigs, and Muhydin seems to be confirming just that.
Who decides where the postal votes goes, and when and on what basis? Well no one knows, that, I am told is privy only to the Prime Minster who decides where it is dropped and in what proportions.
The threats to Ambiga during the Bersi rally and the allegations made out by her on the threats to her life being endorsed by the Prime Minster himself, which she corroborated with evidence in her testimony to Suhakam shows the extent to which Najib will go to, to remain in office.
Ambiga is lucky that Najib did not see four her, (pun intended) Najib has a reputation of seeing four.
What she called ambush by police is what I refer to as banditry by our criminal police force during the Bersih 2 rally, which was denied by the Minsiter of Home affairs. All his lies have now been revealed in the findings of the inquiries in the aftermath of his lie campaign following police criminal attacks on innocent citizens.
This is something I'll never forget, I suffered and I am willing to do it again come what may, I was sprayed by chemically laced water attacked with tear gas and I had young Malay girls cover me and say "Uncle lari sini" that brought more tears to my eyes then the tear gas did, and for their sake and the sake of my children I'll be there if there is a need for Bersih 3.
After having experienced the tear gas in the attack I read for the first time today Ambiga's experience, and I salute this lady, that was really attempted mass murder, firing from two ends of a tunnel and trapping people within, there was a motive, I am sure they expected Anwar to be there, and like Aquino, they wanted him dead, knowing that a man in his physical condition would not survive it. Ambiga survived it, I might have died with my asthma, my diabetes and hypertension, but if there is a need for a Bersih 3 I'll be there, some of us must die for change to take place, to save our country.
With all this in place and the sentiments of the people after Anwar's release, this government is capable of the worst case scenario, and we must be prepared to answer the call of the nation if that happens, not so much for our sakes but for the sake of our children and their children's children.
This is the most beautiful country in the world, it is worth dying for and the only way to ensure a free and fair elections is to ask for UN intervention to ensure a free and fair elections.
Now I think we all get clear picture why Mahathir championed the junta in Myanmar, he knew one day he'd have to resort to the same tactics, and it's is happening now.
Let us with one voice cry Anwar for PM, the road to Putrajaya like Hadi Awang put it is a long and winding one, but Deo volente (for want of saying it in Malay and creating a political fuss with UMNOputras) we will be there.
both kadir & rashid and are traitors. (dah pencen baru cakap) all their compensations and perks during the service are 'illegal'. there are many more like them. if they try to repent to their creator, they might be forgiven, but all their wrongdoings to own kind (rakyat), it is highly unlikely.
ReplyDeleteWhen there is so many shit around, it is impossible to cover it up and the fear of shit flying into the fan is scary if they lose the next GE. There is a high possibility of having a scenario where there will be a first time in Malaysian history of having opposition shadow Cabinet meetings behind bars. Being a hero to minus zero is very hard to take indeed.
ReplyDeleteI always thought to overcome the evil power of umno, Malaysia needs the combined efforts of all the super heroes of my childhood-Superman,Incredible Hulk, Spiderman,Zerro and yes even Mighty Mouse. Now it looks like many ordinary Malaysian citizens of all ages, has somehow slowly evolving to become these super heroes. Much more so than the super heroes because they are willing to die for the cause. Umno you are DEAD.
ReplyDeleteLet us work harder, go into the interior and spread the good words.
ReplyDeleteDon't be over confident lest we are blinded into fooling ourselves into counting our chickens before they are hatched.
Good piece Toffee.C U at Bersih3/
ReplyDeleteYessssssss......
ReplyDeleteI share your confidence!
This is the first time I am reading such interesting news written by very good writers who speaks the truth about Malaysia. I have written many articles in Twitter but I find this is easier to write because I can write more than 140 words at one time. Not to worry Rakyat,we will win GE 13, I am sure. I say this because of S.A.R. All these 3 people are involved in commodities. [cows, submarines, diamonds]Their names speaks for all. Toffee, meet up BERSIH 3.
ReplyDeletePleas do not accept people like Kadir and Rashid to have a changed heart. I do not want to judge them but why? now? Maybe they are no more in the UMNO circle and cannot get anything more from them? These corrupt practices was there 20 years ago, since Mahatir. Whjy sudden change of hearts???
ReplyDeleteIt's really nice post dear. I love to read it. I want to go abroad and I get really nice information from here.
