IS AZMIN COMING THROUGH THE BACK AGAIN?

 OH, NO, AZMIN!!!,  NOT THE BACK DOOR AGAIN PLEASE!!!


 

Be like everyone else come by the front door please

 

We have two announcements on TV daily and the one given by the Minister Ismail Sabri and the other by the DG of Health Dr. Hashim Noor and that is more than enough a third only confuses matters especially when the third dwells in areas he is not qualified to.

STOP THE CONFUSION.

The minister's (whoever that may be) announcement should  not in anyway contradict or add on, from a medical expert's perspective  what the Director General of Heath says. Whatever medical directive is given must be from the Director General of Health who may be adviced by a panel of experts himself or coming from himself, because he becomes responsible for all that he he says.  That is good Management Practice.

There is absolutely no problem with  what the the DG of health is doing to date and the rakyat respects his decisions as they know and realise for  a larger part that for him this is really a mission and that he carries out his responsibilities diligently and responsibly, kudos to him.

                    Not controversial,not political - to the point

The Minister or  Senior Minister for Security and Minister of Defence Ismail Sabri is not supposed to get into the medical sphere of things in the Covid 19 arena that area is out of his jurisdiction. Even the Minister of Health  D. Adam Baba does not do it these days, he leaves it to his expert the Director General of Health and his panel. Now that is Good Management Practice.

Ismail Sabri's job is to announce the control measures and to ensure the control mechanisms are in place and enforcement is  carried out  efficiently and effectively without fear or favour. Control mechanism's for no-medical issues Dr. Noor Hisham should be the deciding body for that he announces the numbers, he studies the trends, he recommends the level of MCO, the implementation of that  MCO and its level the control and enforcement activities that is, is announced by Ismail Sabri. The announcement pf the level of MCO must be the prerogative of the DG of Health done after consultation with his team and the relevant ministries.

Looking at what is happening Ismail Sabri seems to be the man who who puts the "cart before the horse" announcing any thing that comes out of his mouth without the logistics to back it up really,without having  reviewed it and put in place the machinery to implement  and control it and hence he contradicts himself almost daily.

To be fair to Ismail Sabri  in certain cases this is so because of the intervention of third parties who tend to attack from the back door.

Ismail Sabri  should only come out when it is necessary and not necessarily daily, unless there are changes.

As can be seen from his daily announcements he seems to becoming back again an again to correct a wrong piece of information given the day before, this is a clear indication of lack of or poor planning without sufficient thought put in the process.

Changing terms is acceptable making control more stringent or relaxing some control measures is acceptable but only in consultation with the DG of Health. 

The Government must understand that the DGs are the specialists and they have to take their advice and act on it because the power of acting on that advice is given to them by the people.

Now to come the most irritating part;

IS AZMIN TRYING TO COME IN THROUGH THE BACK DOOR AGAIN?

The announcement of controls  is the purview of the Defence Minister, and now to add confusion to it  all that enters Azmin Ali through the back door and what is his business here?  

                On Covid matters stay at the back  do not come through the back

He can if he really want's to or, needs to or, has the urge to do anything from the back do it at the planning stage behind closed doors and with Ismail Sabri  and that will be the input for the planning and review and acceptance of protocols from which Ismail Sabri makes his announcements.

Azmin seems to have taken a bigger role and it seems coming from the back as usual.

He has decided who should not go to work.

He has decided how many hours they should work. and for how many days in the week how he has come out with such figures no one knows and I really think no one cares to know because it looks like sheer rubbish and social media is full of people poking fun at what he has said. Looks like many of the rakyat like to poke Azmin.

He has decided how many management and Supervisory and Management staff should go to work and is now making public announcements. on all these matters.

A lot of his messages has caused confusion to the rakyat and Industry as well.

COVID AND COMMERCE?

We are aware that industry will take their problems to his ministry and he would have to listen to them and take appropriate decisions and it is important, very important  from an economic point of view to listen to industry and act on them  and then to balance it,  also to sensitize industry to this unprecedented era where unprecedented solutions are necessary looking at the bigger picture and more importantly the primary interests of the  rakyat as a whole rather then a narrow scope of profitable economic activity alone.

Those problems he brings to the table of Ismail Sabri,  he becomes part of that planning team, he only comes when there are problems involving his ministry and Covid  these issues are addressed, what is relevant and important  for the greater good are taken into consideration, the measures put in place and announced by Ismail Sabri who is then responsible as the minister for the implementation and the control measures of the new Operating procedures and no one else.

So why is Azmin Ali doing his favourite thing again, coming from the back,can't he do things properly, like doing things the right way?

Earlier he proposed the barbershops remember?

COVID 19 THE PARLIAMENTARY PHASE THE MOST DANGEROUS

 by Toffee 
3 October 2020
 
IT'S EXPONENTIAL, ITS DANGEROUS, ITS WIDESPREAD AND COULD MULTIPLY TO A 1000 WITHIN A WEEK IF WE DO NOT TAKE CARE!!!!
OUR FRONT LINERS BEING PUT AT HIGHER RISK WITH MORE CASES.
 
                 Our precious Front Liners, their lives matter, to them, their families and also to us God Bless Our Frontlines

 
THIS IS THE CABINET CLUSTER!!!!!  MORE DANGEROUS THAN THE TABLIGH CLUSTER.
 
WE SHOULD CALL THIS SECOND WAVE THE CABINET CLUSTER, BECAUSE THIS WAS CAUSED BY THE GOVERNMENT - STATE ELECTIONS IN SABAH - A POLITICAL MOVE WITHOUT CARE OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING AROUND REGARDING A DANGEROUS UNSEEN ENEMY SPREADING RAPIDLY AT THAT TIME IN SABAH - COVID 19.
 
NOW, YOU HAVE OTHER STRAINS OF THE VIRUS INCLUDED, WHICH BESIDES THE EXPONENTIAL GROWTH WE ARE NOW EXPERIENCING MAKES IT MANY MANY MORE TIMES DANGEROUS THEN THE TABLIGH WAVE.
 
PLEASE STAY AT HOME AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
 
A SECOND MCO IS AN ABSOLUTE NECESSITY ANY RIGHT MINDED PERSON WILL TELL YOU THAT, BUT IDIOTIC SELF SEEKING POLITICIANS  WILL CONSIDER OTHER THINGS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HUMAN LIVES - MALAYSIAN LIVES.
 
                                       Well Protected, expensive mask, will he declare a complete MCO

Why has there been not testing and Quarantine for Malaysians and others, coming in from Sabah including the bloody political bigwigs?

We started our big spread of Covid 19 with the infamous Tabligh cluster if you will all remember, that was horrible and frightening experience, but we fought it and brought it under control at a terrible cost to all of us and our families, we were happy the worst was over and we depended on the political elite to do everything in their power to keep it that way.

The situation was exemplary we Malaysians had to endure huge sacrifices to succeed,  only for rogue politicians, as almost all our politicians in power today are rogues,  to come and destroy this.

I now ask the question as a Malaysian, as a Malaysian  who suffered that first wave, and that too bravely and  without resorting to going to the blasted hypocritical backdoor government with a begging bowl, and having said that I am entitled to ask this question and I'd like to ask all readers to consider this.

DID MUHYIDDIN SEE HIS POWER BASE WANING WITH ANWAR PLANNING A COUP AGAINST HIM?

I assume he did.

DID HE THEN PLAN TO INCREASE THE SPREAD OF THE VIRUS IN THE COUNTRY, HOPING IT WOULD GIVE HIM CAUSE TO BLAME OTHERS AND KEEP HIM IN OFFICE?
 
He could have got Musa Aman to destablise Sabah and get the Governor to to follow Shafie's plans to dissolve the State Assembly in Sabah to pave the way for elections. Sabah was at the material time experiencing a growth on the number of Covid 119 infections.

WAS THERE A PLANNED INFLUX OF FILIPINOS INTO SABAH AT THIS TIME THAT PROMPTED THE POLICE TO ISSUE A WARNING OF THE POSSIBILITY  FILIPINOS ATTACKING THE STATE ON POLLING DAY?
We know that spread of Covid 19 in Sabah can be hugely attributed to illegal immigrants from the nearby Phillipine Islands and if that was the objective it was reached.

BUT WAS THAT THE ONLY OBJECTIVE?
Notice Muhyiddin was not affected at all, UMNO politicians were, MCA's Wee was and it looks like  he is being released earlier than the scheduled 14 days. And if so why? Special exemptions?

IS THIS GOVERNMENT USING THIS COVID 19 TO PROP UP ITS POWER BASE?
                            Senior Minister - No Social Distancing, No Mask, and avoided testing & Quarantine
 
 
We are all too familiar with the Khairuddin Aman Razali case, the Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities, who did not subject himself to Covid testing and quarantine on his return from Turkey for dubious reasons with a huge entourage including his family.
 
After the huge hue and cry about his case the police decided to investigate, they sent the investigations papers to the Attorney General it was resent to the Police for further investigations by the AG's chambers, what a farce, do I need to go more in detail?
 
People with lesser offences were punished very severely and here a Minister gets off scot free just because he is a Minister. As a Minister he should have been charged to the fullest extent of the law and given the maximum punishment.
 
In the current Sabah case there is no testing of people coming in from Sabah requiring Quarantine. Have all the politicians who have been there been subjected to 14 days quarantine? 

We know that Zahid was tested positive on return so too were other Cabinet Ministers were all politicians returning from Sabah subject to 14 days Quarantine and if not why? 
 
Because they are politicians?
.
HAS THE KHAIRUDDIN IMMUNITY FACTOR RUBBED OFF TO OTHER GOVERNMENT POLITICIANS? 
                                           Is his a case of arrogance driven by a false sense of power?
 

WEE KA SIONG A CASE OF SHEER ARROGANCE?
 
Well I believe it has.
Yesterday 2nd September  Wee Ka Siong, announced that his doctor had cut off his band and that he is Covid free and that too less than too a mere 8 days  after his return from Sabah, he returned on the 25th of September his doctor released him yesterday 2nd October. 
 
We all know that the WHO has set 13 days and our own  MOH still insists on 14 days to clear a suspected case, a 14 day Quarantine period.
 
Wee's release was reported in the Star today.
 
So what makes Wee Ka Siong so special?
 
He could have done a 100 tests in this period of 8 days but it does not count,  the virus can manifest itself anytime in the 14 day window,  so what is so special about Wee Ka Siong that his doctor has released him from Quarantine in only 8 days?
 
I will conclude that it is because he like Khairuddin is a Minister and to this Government and its machinery these politicians are above the law. That effectively makes them lawless.

He hasn't  completed the 14 day quarantine period? The doctor seems to have released him after 8 days and he's going back to work on Monday that is 12 days after. 
 
On what grounds did his doctor cut off the band and declare him  Covid free?
 
The Doctor, if he did as Wee claims, has stepped beyond the limits of authority and needs to be taken to task
 
 All Malaysians need an answer, even if he did a 100 tests, the virus can manifest itself anytime in a 13 day window.
 
It was the Sabah elections that has created this second deadly wave, while we were still fighting some local clusters, this gives rise to real suspicion and the questions have to be asked without fear or favour.
 
Why is that despite Sabah being the most  infected Malaysian State at this time , Malaysians and others  returning from Sabah to the other states are not placed in Quarantine?
 
Is this being done on purpose? 
 
It cannot be an oversight a child would tell you they need to be quarantined.
 
Is it because that would mean the quarantine of the most important politicians in the country at a time when Anwar is claiming he has a majority to form a government?
 
It most certainly looks like a political issue, it can't be anything else.
 
If we had effectively quarantined all Malaysians returning from Sabah even before the elections when the Sabah ccases were on the rise this situation will not have arisen.
 
This lends clarity of some meddling by politicians  in the affairs of the Ministry of Health and its operations to stamp out the virus or at least control the spread.

The spread as it is now is really beyond control unless we go back on a total lock down.

THIS WAVE IS EXPONENTIAL STAY AT HOME I URGE YOU TO.
 
Yes because of the spread, and coupled with the reports that the Indonesian strain of the virus which is more deadly has entered our shores Malaysians should stay at home.
 
If we do not watch it within 4 days we'll hve figures of above 650 cases per day and thousand is not too far away. STAY AT HOME.

Being a Christian, I urge all my Christian brothers not to go to Church tomorrow, many of our Sabahan brothers have returned from Sabah after the elections they too must refrain from going to Church tomorrow and for at least 4 weeks to be safe. We really do not know who and when we come into contact with infected persons, so stay at home and attend your services online.

I urge my friends of every other religions to do the same, KEEP SAFE MY FELLOW MALAYSIAN BROTHERS,  OUR POLITICIANS JUST CAN'T BE TRUSTED.

In view of the current situation a lock down is the only way to bring the situation under control, as I said this wave is exponential and the numbers are showing it, what is taking the government so long to consider is a mystery, or is it considering that this Government seems to be doing everything the other way round. 
 
If there is to be a General Elections let's call for a nation wide boycott of the polls.

I HAVE ORDERED MY GRANCHILDREN TO STAY AT HOME FOR THE WEEK AND MAYBE MORE DEPENDING

It was a long weekend, Malaysians of all races and creeds hit the roads, there was a mass exodus although not as huge as we used to experience in the past but nevertheless in this period a few hundred thousand is already dangerous, very dangerous especially if there are hidden clusters around.

There is the Ulu Tiram cluster and that could be really bad, especially as some priests do commute between parishes,however the Church has been strict with rulings and Bishop Bernard cancelled all Masses the moment he knew of the case of the Seminarian who returned from the Philippines.

Nevertheless we must consider that there can be people who are infected and unless we are sure we can't be sure enough to take risks these are lives on the line. I know the Church will give the authorities all the cooperation, in fact after the relaxation there are Churches who have not opened yet, they want to make sure they have all the control measures in place and one such parish is the parish where I attend Mass.

Then there is the person from Kedah who after being infected attended a Hari Raya function.

This person was exposed to the Sivagangga cluster, knowing this he went for a medical check up, and sought a Covid-19 test at a private clinic on July 27, but it was a rapid test kit (RTK) antibody test which, unlike a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test, unable to detect Covid-19 in the early stages of infection. The result was negative. The patient is not  expected to know the difference, he went for a Covid 19 check up and he got one he was negative so he went for the Raya gathering.

Following this the person began to experience symptoms of fever and cough but did not contact the nearest district health office or health clinic for treatment.A day later, after the person was involved in Hari Raya Aidiladha activities, the person informed that he is a close contact of the index case."Following that, screening was conducted using an RT-PCR test and was found to be positive with Covid-19. The person is admitted to Hospital Sultanah Bahiyah for treatment."

Now from the Nort and the South we have exposures that can have far reaching circumstances and the Health authorities must alert the Education Authorities about the risks here and how children could lead to the spreading of the disease even faster.

Let's not be like Tokyo or Victoria and act only when it is too late act now and reduce the risks.

In view of the above I have put my foot down my grand children are not going to school for at least this week, I feel that is no sufficient considering the risks after having read and followed what has happened elsewhere.


Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah please give your professional opinions t the Minister of Education and the Prime Minister they have to act and act fast there is no time to waist.

TDM SAD TO SAY, BUT YOUR SENITLITY IS SHOWING LIKE A WOMAN'S PETTICOAT

August 3, 2020
by Toffee


Do yourself and all of us us a favour Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohmmed, do your children possibly a bigger favour they probably don't have the heart to tell you that, but your senility is showing like a woman's petticoat passing. 


KEPIMPINAN DR. MAHATHIR MOHAMAD, SATU ANALISA TERKINI – Editor ...


It can't be the press, you say one thing at one time then contradict what you said in the first place next and give a lot of cock and bull stories to justify your cheating means.

It has been recorded by your statements on the Anwar Ibrahim succession issue, it is either your senility or your vile ways to get back into power to push your agenda to get your son as heir apparent to sit on the seat of the Prime Minister.

Then again that move in itself displays your senility, your son is not the stuff Prime Minister's are made of,  in fact he looks so much like laughing stock and was probably made Menteri Besar of Kedah for the same reason you made Najib Prime Minister.

Your crooked means to get your son up there as PM, has made you the laughing stock of Malaysians and even so more people in your home state Kedah, one who told me you seem to be in second childhood trying to play hide and seek with your children and it is so damn funny, so much so the people who once adored you and allowed you to do almost anything including taking on the royalty have now discarded you, you are  a laughing stock with them.

You have admitted many a time that your choice off successors have always been bad, that is because you do not consult, you make popular decisions and you ignore what is really good for the nation.

 If you had your head over your shoulders you would have made Rafidah your successor, but then you are so conservative you dared not make the decision that was one big failure of your leadership.

You were not too much of  a leader, you led simple Malays folk by giving them the feel good factor so you literally robbed them and gave your children and your cronies what was rightfully theirs.

You literally pushed both Musa Hitam and Tengku Razaleigh out of office because they were not subservient to you and that was the only reason.

You always expected your second in command to agree with you and if they didn't you treated them with suspicion and did everything in your power to move them out, Anwar was on the verge of exposing you when he came out with his campaign to get rid or corruption, nepotism and cronyism.

You ruined succession in the country you drove away good leaders and did what you wanted and maneuvered things so that you could eventually put your son in place and that would have been most convenient.

After affording preferential treatment to your children and cronies  to succeed in business -  and after they amassed really disproportionate wealth you knew you had to legitimize it,   and what better way than have one of your sons as the Prime Minister of Malaysia to ensure that no investigations would be carried out against your children over the vast wealth created for them by decisions you took whilst  Prime Minister thereby getting the people to forget that even happened and legitimise this disproportionate wealth over time.

Your son is a nobody in politics, his sudden growth of beard is not convincing the Malays of Kedah, more Kedahans feel he is irrelevant and  you have done your time so goodbye for now.

The talk in town is that even you have created vast wealth for yourself and it is held in proxy by others and by corporations that have been around since your days as Prime Minister, this talk is still very much around so much so the corporations cannot achieve their full potential because people still suspect that whilst your proxies walk around as distinguished billionaires.

You have an inherent fear of Anwar and I am certain you will go to any extent to ensure that he is not the PM of Malaysia, you showed it by sacrificing the Government you were entrusted to run by people, you were the mastermind of that move and everything else is hogwash, you are still part of that move because you do not want Anwar Ibrahim to become Prime Minister.

The immense sacrifice that Anwar and Kit Siang made in accepting you although you jailed Anwar for trumped up Sodomy charges, and Kit Siang's son for reporting a rape shows you that these men put the interest of the nation first before themselves and their children at a time Najib was treating the national treasury as his families Piggy Bank and running the country into Bankruptcy, it was even worse then all of you envisaged.

And yet after they made that huge sacrifice you sacrificed them and pretend it was not you, weren't you the man who was so much against sodomy? In the light of photographic evidence you did not even ask Azmin to go on leave till investigations were complete, you kept him close to you and insinuated that it was a political ploy. The other person in the picture even admitted it was him.

You kept Azmin because he was part of your plan and I believe he still is, that is why he has not committed himself to any other political party, he still awaits you and your plan to make him the interim PM and eventually to be succeeded by your son - admit it.

You are such a slimy character you  got DAP really licking your toes they believed in you.

You have a complete hatred for the DAP and more still for Anwar Ibrahim, because with those two parties Anwar was the foregone choice for Prime Minister of Malaysia.

In reality there can be no man who is more deceitful than you in Malaysian politics.

Anwar Ibraahim was  incarcerated by you, only because he was out to stop the corruption, the nepotism and the cronyism you created in government and in UMNO in particular. You saw that as a direct challenge to you and your plans to create immense wealth for yourself and your family, you borrowed ideas from Rockefeller, Ford and the rest, you followed Hitler you are  an ardent  disciple of  Adolf Hitler, your Holy Book is the Mein Kampf and you are very much a fascist to the bone, you just can't hide it, no matter how hard you try, for ever so often it comes back, and exactly like Hitler attacking the Jews you attack the Chinese all in pursuit of your own selfish agenda of making your family one of the richest in the world, via your policy of the  ends justifying the means.

To do this without being hindered you stunted the growth of the Malays, but what do you care, after all you are not a Malay, and you saw the opportunity to really use them to meet your own selfish ends, to legitimise your own Malaayness, you were one of the architects of Bumiputraism. Let all the Malaysians know from the Malayalam word  bhÅ«miputran(
à´­ൂà´®ിà´ªുà´¤്രൻ). Your fake Malayness can be tracked.

You got them to disrespect their fellow Malaysians of other races, like Hitler you made them believe they were the superior race in this land at least, you allowed education policy to be manipulated to the extent that many Malays who have graduated actually do not deserve their degrees and you bloody well know that.

You made professors of unqualified people, you accorded not only degrees but Masters and PhD level qualifications to people who were not fit for it and conveniently placed them in a bloated Civil society.

For the Malays if they were  in UMNO and had the qualifications no matter how useless they were given promotions and placed in high level positions.

If there was a higher promotion you were promoted and if there were two of them, two positions were created and you ran away from it because you knew the system would collapse smack on your face,  it has and it has now so much so there are so many who are asking, how can rationale human beings with (supposedly) such good credentials still support a Najib, a Hadi Awang, a Zahid and even a Rosmah.

Well the answer is with you, do some soul searching but then I doubt you can, because you can't soul search for two reasons, you are convinced you do not have a soul, and the second is even if you want to, your senility is showing like a woman's petticoat.

You sold the trust of the people of Malaysia when knowingly you backed Najib for Prime Minister even when he had the Altantuya Murder hanging over his head. You even were quoted as having said he has taken an Oath in the mosque that he did not do it, then later used that against him when you wanted him out - the ends justifies the means.

That is how you twist and turn stories, you are forgetful when it is convenient to be forgetful that is a trait every Malaysian is aware of, today you say the Chinese are rich and the Malays are poor, I am wondering if you have mega Chinese Billionaires fronting for you and I believe you have so you can continue with that narrative.

Why are the Malays so poor as you put it, it is because of UMNO politics, money that was supposed to go for Malay development went instead into the pockets of the UMNO leadership, we have the BBMB scandal that was totally Bumiputra, we have the  countless audit reports by the Auditor General that have just been placed aside without even consideration leave alone action, then there is FELDA scams, Tabung Haji scams, you name we have it,  and thank God you have  few Chinamen in this country who will still put their money here for without the Hong Leongs, The Kok Groups, the  Tan Chongs etc etc we we may have been bankrupt today.

Money that was supposed to go to the development of the Malays were taken as an entitlement by the UMNO elite who did not even know how to use it and wasted it.

There is very little that can be done against the corrupt in this country because if you really put your finger on the lid there will be just too much.

The only man who can really get the Malays out of this predicament is Anwar Ibrahim and possibly Shafie Apdal, but in your fear of that marriage you did it, you drove a wedge between them.

In saying all that  I said I am not for a moment taking my focus or making excuses for Najib, Najib has to face and be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, you may be too old for that but your children may be in line for that.

You really do not have to worry too much, Anwar is not as vindictive as you are, in a Cerama in Taman Sri Andalas in the run up to the 2013 General Elections he told us this, "I know what Mahathir did , I will not throw him in Jail, but I'll call him and tell him to return this,this and that so we can claim back all our money".

Najib is your mirror image and that is why dislike him because at this age when you look at your image in the mirror and see those wrinkles and the aging skin you completely dislike it, in the same manner you now dislike your protege a man you put there knowing he was corrupt, incapable and dishonest only because you said it was  that his father gave you that opportunity.

What a stupid reason, like I said your senility is showing like a woman's petticoat, so before you lose more respect stay at home end keep quiet let the country sort itself out, and stop using senile logic to try and sort the terrible mess you put us in.

SABAH MAKES THE RIGHT MOVE - LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE


 August 8, 20202
 by Toffee



The Governor of Sabah has most certainly made the right move, in fact Sabah has shown the peninsular that it is the people who matter and their elected representatives are only their representatives placed there by their votes  to represent the people who elected them  in the political parties they were voted to,   and not to jump like political prostitutes into the beds of of any other person or party.
A future PM of Malaysia if the Sabahans support him

People are calling them frogs, no they aren't frogs these are political prostitutes and the difference between the two is this.

The Prostitute is a destitute, she gives up her pride for the sake of looking after herself, her family and quite often even her aged parents, she has dignity, she is dedicated to her children and her aged parents, she is loyal tot them, she is driven by circumstances to the profession.

"Political Prostitutes" have no dignity, they trade the dignity of themselves their families, their parents and their siblings for monitory gain. They sell the principles they swore to uphold when they took their Oath of office, Oath's for them mean nothing, it seems to be picking up and as usual Oaths of many kinds in such circumstances always begin at the top. Political Prostitutes do not worry about the reflection their vile actions have on their children, their siblings and their parents, they shame their parents too and the family name the completely lack any pride.

Musa Aman was once thought nt being able to make it to public office, he looked like was almost  on his death bed, since his corruption trial magically vanished miraculously state
Returned from the Jaws of death
representatives were crossing over to join him, do you believe they did it for free?  Or he would probably claim divine intervention , he was cured to lead Sabah with a host of corrupt politicians for whom rewards in the millions fell from heaven.


The talk is around that it costs millions in two figures to get a single assemblyman to cross over, strangely though the witnesses the could have implicated Musa Aman have all died so there is no case against him, he has been acquitted, now surely the MACC could go to these assemblymen who jumped ship to find out how much was involved and how did the the man who bribed them to make acquire the funding to   pay them, where did all that money come from.

The way I look at it the assemblymen if they  have already received the money will now be asked to return it, well failure will have its consequences, bad luck may fall on them, they could just disappear, or hold on to the funds to get elected again, but then again if the giving was based on the premise that the party they crossed over to will control the government they may be able to hold on to it if the party wins.

The Political Prostitutes had better be careful, in Sabah there are many ways and many places to disappear to, there is jungle, there re terrorists lurking  looking for handsome rewards and much more.
Fuad Stephens Died in a Mysterious Air crash

UMNO's Bung Mokhtar has promised that UMNO will do great things for Sabah if they win, but that is like a broken record we have heard that sung from as far as West Malaysia, each time they sing the song we hear it loud and clear only to witness one of the richest states in the country with  living at standards that can hardly even match some of the African states.

The East Malaysians seem to be the trusting kind, but the rust they have placed on the BN and parties aligned with them is astonishing, the only people who have been benefiting from the Federal Government have  been the greedy and selfish politicians and yet the people of North Borneo give their votes so willingly to these tyrants, I think it is time they stopped nd give anyone else who comes after them some time to right things -after all Rome was not built in a day neither was Jesselton.


It is time for Sabah to be decisive, to give Sahfie Apdal an overwhelming majority, with which no government in the Federation would want to exchange barbs with. Do not allow the Federal government play the fool with your voice the way they once did and see hwat has happened, the people who were to be the torch bearers to lead Sabah have become as crooked.

Improve your tourists industry, let me tell you you have far better beaches than Bali, you have classic sea food, harvest that with care, your next generations need to taste that as well, but let the tourists have some too, and you'll certainly become a tourists destination.

If the Federal Government can't provide you with adequate security for your tourists create your own security detail both on land and sea and make Sabah what it is destined to be the world's best Tourist Destination, you have it flout it and enrich yourselves.

Plotting by the unholy Trinity
Demand what is rightfully yours from the Federal Government, from Petronas and the rest, become a proud nation and believe me you can't do that with UMNO, nor PAS, nor Bersatu but with Shafie Apdal, give him your backing he is most certainly Prime Minister material. 

Take control of Sabah, do not let Federal authorities hold you to ransom using your politicians, which they do now, they allow them to become corrupt, absolutely corrupt and protect them for their support, the minute they do not get it they go for them.

Shafie has shown that he could defy the Prime Minister of Malaysia and he was key to taking that man out of office in the 2018 general Election, in Shafie you have a leader, in Shfie Malaysia as a whole is starring at a leader.

IT'S TIME TO RECOGNISE THE UEC QUALIFICATIONS - WITH CONDITIONS.


 by toffee
1 Aug 2020

EDUCATION AT THE CROSS ROADS - TIME TO MAKE THE CHOICE.

It is important that we recognize that the Chinese Independent schools in Malaysia have a very high standard of education, recognizing them will only enhance the standard of education in the country, and the government should seriously study this proposal.

However we must look at other ares of  National Policy and the recognition must come with general acceptance by all quarters of society.

In the UK there are  five awarding bodies for examinations and schools can choose between them, they are:

i)   AQA (Assessment and Qualifications Alliance) 
ii)  CCEA (Council for the Curriculum, Examinations & Assessment) 
iii) OCR  (Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examinations) 
iv)  Pearson, under its Edexcel brand 
v)   WJEC (Welsh Joint Education Committee), under its WJEC and Edugas brand.


Similarly we can have the UEC and the Government type which has the PMR, SPM and the STPM and the UEC can continue with the the Junior Middle and the Senior Middle  exams continuing to be in place.

The government and most Malaysians will will find it beneficial for their Children, many of our senior UMNO ministers themselves have found the UEC beneficial for their children so let us not be hypocrites.

We have to get one thing straight first, the syllabus should be retained but the medium of instruction has to be in Bahasa Malaysia, with English as a compulsory Language and the schools of both streams offering languages of choice which shall be Mandarin, Jawi and Tamil.

I know that may be the obstacle  but if that is the obstacle then all I'll say is it confirms what I said in my last article "All Malaysian are racists or to drive home the point let me state what Nazri once said in Parliament "Bloody Racists" to drive home the point.

Another option would be the teaching of Mathematics and Science in  English, in both mediums.

The change of the Character of the Chinese schools is a must, we can't have our children being  racially segregated from the cradle stage and then complain of racism  in the country. That is totally hypocritical.

If we take a careful look at what is happening in this country we have no alternative then to admit that we are by and large a racist society, all of us the Indians, the Chinese and the Malays. We tend to always be pointing the finger just in one direction but we do not seem to recognize the racism in ourselves.

If we can do a mea culpa  and admit that we have over the years allowed our selves to become more racist and now take notice and do what is right we can overcome the biggest hurdle f our nation, racism.

There is a lot the Government educators can learn from the UEC system and that we should do to enhance the current Government type education in the country, there is also a lot that the UEC systme can do to learn from the Government end, allow the setting up of good and high standard Teacher training colleges, to ensure the teaching profession is highly professional, teachers should be accorded the mobility to move from the UEC stream to the National type stream and vice versa.

Make teaching at all levels a degree qualification, with only the best qualified being positioned in teaching, let's not settle for less, for that is tantamount to a trade off off our children's rights to the best opportunities for education.

Teachers going to rural schools must be given attractive allowances for the best to want to go there and we should conduct Personality tests to ensure that those responding to the teaching profession are seeking that profession as vocation and are not just there for the money.

Make it possible for teachers to switch streams for better opportunities for themselves and  also for the systems, there must be cross breeding, it improves the pedigree.

Teachers should be paid in accordance with their performance and to do this there must be proper performance indicators taking into consideration the types students the teachers are teaching against the performance.

Students must be able to drop a year if they can't make a grade and similarly for those outstanding students there must be an express stream.

I have written before that we should not leave education to a Minister or a Ministry but properly accredited boards  of professionals and we need to get the best, if we need source them form other countries we should.

The job of the minister of Education at best will be to  get the funds needed for education, ensure a good budget we can cut our defence spending by t lest a third if not half to spend more on education. 

Finally do not allow language,or race to come in to fault our education system, leave sentiments aside start thinking as Malaysians, and if the Chinese and Tamil Schools can't agree to a unified schools system with two streams  looking at the welfare of all, where the children are admitted not by race but by choice in a system that allows for fairness for all  shut down in vernacular schools, after so many years since independence we are still confused as to who we are, its time to start changing that.

Najib's Conviction -Time for Overhaul and a Third force.


 by Toffee
29 July 2020 

TIME TO CHANGE COURSE, AND CHART THE NEW MALAYSIA.

It is time to discard the old and the old who manage it, it is time for the new, the young the vibrant  and the relevant.

Yes, in today's world the young are more relevant then the  young  have ever been,  it is the age of today's young, and we have to give it to them,  thy are the potential leaders, more millionaire are springing up from their ranks and most  from those who are hardly even 40, they are showing that they are capable and that they think and perform at a different level,  it is their age.

 Malaysia have to discard the old and their old habits, we know for certain that from the inception of the Mahathir led BN government corruption has been on the rise in this country, powerful politicians have been treating this country's finances as a their own piggy bank and from the beginning of the  construction of the North South highway, the privatization of public utilities water, Electricity, and Telecommunications, the Sepang Airport,  corruption has been rife and was in fact turning into a way of life for those who headed the BN government and it has gone unabated.

Successive government's only took that corruption to a higher level, and Najib was the man who took it to the pinnacle, it was the young that exposed him Tony Pua and Rafizi with the aid of Rewcaste Brown, these were not 60year olds or even for that matter  93 year old politicians.

The country is now on the verge of Bankruptcy at a time the world is faced by its worst disaster since the second world war. 

With more than half a million dead and almost 17 million cases that keeps increasing this could be the worlds greatest human catastrophe and coming out of it will be a huge effort, we'll go back the forties if we are not careful and honestly that is where we are headed.

If Malaysians especially the Malays do not sit up and acknowledge that enough is enough, and opt for a really clean and efficient government this country will soon slide to the status of Myanmar and the Philippines who themselves are now on the upward spiral in terms of development leaving Malaysia to inherit that status sooner rather than later. We may land up worse than a banana republic if we do not watch it.

It is really shocking how especially Malay Malaysian leaders from the ruling UMNO can come out openly in support  of the world's biggest kleptocrat who tried to hide his endevours only to be exposed by Sarawak Report, the Malaysian Press, the New York Times, and the Washington post among others including the Arab English News portal Al Jazeera.

After successfully blocking any investigation into the case which included the firing of the Attorney General, the Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and other politicians who asked for more transparency on the issue Najib Tun Abdul Razak managed to keep a lid over any investigations on the 1MDB case, the Altantuya Murder and many more criminal acts and acts of corruption that went on as though we had a bottomless pit filled with currency from which he could just take out money for his and his family's benefit.

His wife got into the act even providing the specifications for the interior of the Executive jet Njib would so frequently use, she was such an extravagant woman who successfully managed to put Maria Antoinette, and Imelda Marcos to shame.

Let us hope now that today's conviction will be an eye opener for Malaysians especially UMNO Malays and the Indians of MIC and Chinese of the MCA, we have not forgotten the Telecoms Share scandal, the Maica case, the case involving he West Port in Klang,it is still fresh in our minds.

It is most certainly time for change, mega change, the type we have not seen in our history and it can only come from the relevant young vibrant and committed Malaysians.

It is time for the likes of Khairy, Nazri, Nurul, Rafizi, Nga Kor Ming, Anthony Loke, Yeo Bee Yin, Charles Santiago, Siti Kassim,  Teo Nee Chin, and people who can really make a change and whose only aim will be the country without blind loyalties to individuals to any politician but to the nation to take charge and bring in relevant change.

The people helming the country now are clueless, their brand of politics is self enrichment, and they could not care the damn for what the future holds in store as long as they have their own individual families secured.
 
Secured to the extent that hey will never stop in as far as they are in power to use their office to accumulate wealth for themselves, noble politicians are far and few an among those in the old school I see a very few.

ALMOST EVERY MALAYSIAN IS A RACIST.

Don't point our fingers toat the Malays alone the Chinese and Indians are bloody racists too, if they weren't they'd give serious thought to a single stream education policy, not the type we have today with vernacular schools but any talk about that and they are up in arms.

We can have a dual system of two parallel type of schools that will lokk into education seriously.

One type that offers the  Languages, Chinese, Tamil, Jawi and Arabic as optional subjects  besides other normal subjects in Arts and Science. They can be run in line with the UEC syllabus but the character of the Chinese School must change, the medium of instruction should  be in the Bahasa, and one of the two systems can offer Mathematics and Science in English.

The spread of these will not only make our schooling system more relevant, but it will acknowledge the contribution of Chinese Education in the country by accepting the UEC.

Vernacular schools in the present character must cease if we are serious about racial integration. Racial integration must take priority if we are to survive as a nation, no more the "Naan Tamilan nee Tamilan", or "ketuanan Melayu", or the Chinese are the best and the rest stupid attitude.

Back to schools with a true Malaysian character, put it to the test, the Indian Plam Oil fiasco had many Malaysian Indians worked up, Many Chinese to this day support China's intrusion into our territorial waters, say something on facebook and see the results. 

While the pendatiangs all of us are let us face it, from Indonesia, Cambodia, India and China including from Thailand, the only ethnic people of this country arre the Orang Asal that is the Orang Asli in the peninsular and the orang asal of the Island of Borneo.

Will the younger Malays of the peninsular break ranks from their seniors to steer this country in the right direction.


THE CHALLENGE

Malaysia is now plagued  with an aging population, it is time the young and relevant take charge of the country they inherit, let us take the selfish Mahathir's, Muhyiddins and the lot of UMNO deadwood out of our political system.

These old folks are so tied up in their ways they'll not give way to the young, we must realise that many of the developed world is now turning to younger and younger politicians.

The age of Emmanuel Macronthe Frech President is only 42, the age of the British Prime Minister is only 56, and he is of Turkish ancestory, the age of the Canadian Prime Minister is only 48, then Giuseppe of Italy is only 56 whilst we were just bragging of having an antiquated confused and senile man at 93 as our PM an he is still trying to get there to satisfy his own selfish motives of having his son become the next Prime Minister.

So the real challenge is for these young people to come together put politics aside and the nation first, manage and direct it for their own and future generations. 

 Why even now Mahathir still thinks he is the only one who can run this country, he so outdated, he is so antiquated and is already bordering on senility  and I really pity that man as his children seem to dare not tell him the truth about himself today.  

To ensure only the best in politics we should back high salaries for cabinet ministers, and cabinet ministers should be really qualified, and not talk nonsense. Our current Prime Minister has even been exposed as a man who can't get simple figures right.

Remember the British Intervention - Now read RECYCLING PANGKOR

by 
Howl Pillay
June 11 20202

Shame on our politicians! Once again it looks like we need help from 
outside to fix our problems.

Remember the Pangkor Treaty circa 1874?

A quick refresher and we are on our way..

Sultan Ali rules Perak from Sayong on the Perak River. His palace is a modest 
house with thatched roofing amidst a few coconut palms. Compared to the 
rich merchants in Singapore and Penang the Sultan is a poor man indeed. 
Bo lui la!

Nothing wrong here for world trade has by-passed him. The tin mines in 
the north, at Larut, worked by rival groups of Chinese, are controlled by a 
powerful chief Ngah Ibrahim working closely with rich merchants in Penang. 
No, not Jho Low la!

The death of Sultan Ali in 1871 sparked a fight for the throne, 
ignoring established procedures. 
Clearly a gomen official had forgotten to revise the SOPs governing these 
matters. All the claimants smell money, big money, so SOPs don’t count 
anyway.

But first a side story. When Sultan Ali was dying he requested to see his 
daughter Raja Tipah, married to the Raja Muda, Abdullah, one of the 
claimants. Fearing a plot, Abdullah refuses to take her home up the Perak 
River.

Angry, she says: “ I will follow any man brave enough to take me 
to my father”. We are not sure if she said, “I want to advise you 
something”. 
Raja Daud of Selangor, pretending to take her to Sayong, takes her 
instead to his kampong. 
They elope!

Abdullah does nothing to avenge himself except divorcing Raja Tipah. 
Big mistake! You can hear the boos along the Perak River all the way to 
the estuary, his power base. In steps Yusuf from Senggang, the second 
claimant, senior to Abdullah.

The third claimant, Bendahara Ismail whose powerbase is in Upper Perak is 
strictly not royalty although married to one. Twice he had been bypassed for 
promotion to Raja Muda. 
Now an elderly man, his followers egg him on: “Boleh Boss, apa na malu?”

Now for the fourth claimant, Ngah Ibrahim of Larut, the wealthiest of the 
chiefs, closely associated with the Chinese in Penang, and he supported 
Ismail the third claimant, harbouring thoughts of becoming Sultan himself 
one day.

No, we are not talking about the present but the past. History! All the big 
shots are now summoned to Sayong (not Sheraton la!) to bury Sultan Ali and 
choose a new one. Abdullah demurs, knowing Yusuf was waiting upriver 
at Senggang, with evil intent.

In Abdullah’s absence, the chiefs chose the third claimant as the Sultan, 
and the suspicion is that the chiefs wanted a pliable man like Ismail to rule 
over them for their own selfish ends. The weaker the Sultan, the stronger 
the warlords. 
Beware! 

Then the Chinese start fighting again viciously, over tin. The Sultan, the 
claimants and the chiefs realign their loyalties until friend becomes foe and 
foe becomes the enemy of my friend or whatever.

Finally, fearing a general unrest and citing ‘commercial interests’, one 
Andrew Clarke with that fearsome white moustache did some Chinese 
bashing a at Pangkor followed by more of the same dished out to the 
Malay chiefs but again it all sounds familiar.

Abdullah turned up at Pangkor requesting a Resident in return for becoming 
Sultan; Sultan Ismail was invited but was a no-show and Yusuf was not even 
invited. 
So Sultan Abdullah ruled in the south and Sultan Ismail, the north, hanging 
on to the regalia.

If you are confused by now, start reading the papers, nevermind history. 
So how do we go from here is the billion ringgit question. We are done with 
Sir Andrew Clarke and the Brits. The Americans are rioting and the Russians 
are sorting out the Arabs. 

First look for a nice small round table. Then double the ECRL price, smiling at 
the Chinese. That done, increase patrolling the waters around Pangkor using 
our submarines. Then look up a costume shop for Victorian-era props and 
costumes.

Almost done! Now let us invite Comrade Xi Jinping to ‘kow-thim” our 
warring parties, still at it after 150 years as to who should succeed and 
who should wait for his turn while the rakyat are reduced to a feudal 
condition, living on handouts.

Just to frighten our great chiefs into cutting a compromise for the common 
good and making a sacrifice for succeeding generations, we must insist 
Comrade Xi sport a white walrus moustache bought from that costume shop 
I told you about. 
One last thing, a hundred years hence, a history exam question may read 
like this:

Soalan - Sewaktu negara kita dilanda oleh politik gila kuasa sekitaran 
tahun 2020, pemimpin Cina yang membantu penyelesaiannya ialah:

  1. Deng Xiaopeng
      
  1. Michael Cheng

  1. Lee Kachiang
   
  1. Xi Jinping

  1. Mahathir bin Muhyuddin
