Back up / Exit Plans

I'm sorry. At the risk of writing about something boring again and risk my *HUGE* legions of fans leavin this blog never to come back again, I will talk about politics again today.

There is far too much going on for us to be ignorant about. We might not be able to do much right now, but at least, lets be armed to the teeth with facts, use our developed analytical skills, and make the correct voting decision come election time. I rather at least try to disseminate my dissatisfied feelings here instead of just whining.

- Everyone is laughing at us. Everyone realizes that we are competing on a macro level, nation vs nation, except Malaysia, who is still fighting over who gets how much of the pie. Soon, there will not be a pie left to fight over. The greedy guys at the top will bleed the country dry. People, wake up. Lets be aware of what is happening here, don't just suck in your balls and run under your blanket everyday living your glitzy life until the shit hits the fan and you're taken by surprise. At least know whats going on, live your glitzy life, and make preparations, so when the shit hits the fan, you implement your back up plans, instead of plunging ur head into the sand.

- We have been threatened again. Spoken by our UMNO Youth Chief, Hishamuddin.

Opportunistic leaders who stoke the “fires of disunity” have no place in Barisan Nasional, warned Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.

The Umno Youth chief said Malaysia could not be moulded by the narrow-mindedness, chauvinism and extremism of those who play the racial card in order to emerge as champions of their race.

He also reminded Umno Youth not to engage in the “game of the politics of hate.”

“Race and religious issues are being discussed without considering rationally the impact they will have on race relations in the country.

“What should have been constructive criticism has turned out to be vindictive, a venting of anger and hatred, malice and envy,” he said.

And...

Hishammuddin also warned the component parties in the Barisan Nasional not to fall prey to narrow political thinking and chauvinism.

"We must remember that creating a Malaysian nation will not be possible on narrow thinking and chauvinism. Don’t gamble the future by championing race politics.

I AGREE!!! Well done, you are - but hey... wait a minute...What a hypocrite! Look at this...


The guy in the middle there, yup, thats our hero, waving the keris.


Ooh, look look there he is again! Looking damn handsome and intelligent.

HE and his gang started the whole racial shenanigans thing...his deputy, the First son in law of the country, Mr Khairy. And now, twisting everything around and making US seem like the firestarters. Excellent, excellent. Keep going, we DO need the comic relief (while making our exit preparations of course).

- You guys who have gotten so used to handouts that you will twist statistics and scenarios, start fires, create tensions, spread lies etc just so you can maintain your power...do you know why some people are more successful and some aren't? Why some make it, and some, despite affirmative policies and the like, are doomed to failure? This is the reason. Because you will never be like this, you will never make much of yourself in life, forever reduced to asking for handouts.

- Our infamous Khairy, son in law of our PM. He who runs the show, who controls our PM, who cannot explain how he can afford ECM Libra shares, who uses racism and plays the Malay card shamelessly (oi hello stop tarnishing ur race can? I feel bad for my many capable Malay friends and colleagues, much better than you supposed Oxford grad can ever be). This is a pic of him wearing a sash labelled PM's son in law around his neck, creating a mob scene and wanting to issue a memorandum to Rice, who undoubtedly will go back and tell the US corporate sector that Malaysians love us please invest more there.


So this Khairy dude goes on the news today lambasting Anwar Ibrahim's call to abolish the NEP. Now Anwar's main reason, as he should very well know, having served as Deputy PM once and being very clearly groomed to take over Mahathir, is that "only the cronies and the “Umnoputras” became rich from it". Khairy's reply? “Pandai dia cakap (What cheek he has to speak). He was the greatest Umnoputra of all and a very rich one too”.

Conclusion: Everyone knows that only the cronies and UMNOputras benefit, everyone knows the real purpose of the NEP, and yet, Khairy goes "let’s set a new target. Let’s make it 70% for the Malay equity,” he added." And he dare taint the Malay race by adding that word there, when in fact, the word Malay should be switched to UMNO. By the way, the NEP in itself implies that bumis are somehow incompetent, incapable, and need to cheat. Have some pride - if YOU yourself are like that, do not lump your Malay brethrens into your stupid scheme.

Don't you just love these jokers?

- Our PM. Who when he came on board, promised us 12 pillars, fighting corruption and freedom to express opinons among them. This time I just want to talk about these 2. His son in law dutifully obliges by saying “The actual message is that the Malays are feeling dissatisfied in Penang and they have the right to express their feelings,” he said." when elaborating on why the Malays in Penang are protesting that they are being marginalized. No, nothing is wrong. After all, our PM did say he wants an open environment for discussion. Ok, so dutiful M'sians, when seeing things not right, decided to take up his offer. The response? "LAY off the debate on Malay rights and stop pushing for religious freedom, Umno Youth warned yesterday, signalling the end of its tolerance for the public debate on race and religion."

Ok.

- "'Don't play with, dispute or challenge the position of Malays and Islam in this country,' he said to thunderous applause by the delegates."

- " Several Youth delegates picked up on the theme. Mr Mohd Zan Abu from Johor said that the movement would continue to defend Malay dominance. 'We will not budge an inch to defend our rights, we will defend it to the last drop of our blood,' he said."

- Mr Razali Idris from Terengganu said that if the Malays are provoked, the May 13 sort of racial riots could erupt again.

- 'Do not challenge the Malays - it will ignite our spirit to run amok,' he said.

Great. They can say WHATEVER they want. But WHATEVER we say is tantamount to blasphemy, disturbing race relations, and can risk getting us thrown in jail to muzzle us or getting chopped up. Whoop de damn do you UMNO people, way to go. By the way, again, stop simply bandying the Malay race about can? Since you never really fight for them and improve their lot, only you UMNO people yourselves, at least have the decency to replace everytime you use the word Malay with the word UMNO.

- One brilliant politician's solution for alleviating poverty. Check it out, it reallly makes sense. An example of Malaysian boleh, where brilliant economists have failed.

- Our friend Najib, justifying the NEP by declaring "that the Malay Agenda and NEP will go on forever (no time limit) because “Malays were being oppressed by the Dutch, Portugese and English for more than 400 years”."What a brilllllliant explanation! That perfectly justifies it. Screw statistics mate.

- Our MAT REMPITS. Khairy and his honchos plan to invite at least 50,000 of them to Bukit Jalil for a great carnival. Even the police have washed their hands of the affair. If I stayed in that area, I'd make sure everything valuable in the house including me and the family were out of the country those few days. Geez. These lawless, lawbreaking, inconsiderate, dangerous, road menace, hospital-ward-hogging people are now being roped in to join UMNO. Talk about desperate measures to boost flagging membership and a cheap tactic for votes! And they are being hailed by our Puteri UMNO as future leaders of the country! A national ASSet! Hahaha!

- Taken directly from Malaysia Today.....

."the Deputy Prime Minister announced that the RM600 million will be slotted under the Ninth Malaysia Pan (RMK9) and that the RMK9 will be increased by another RM600 million to cover this amount. That is well and fine. But the RMK9 is government money while the RM600 million is an Umno thing. How can they hijack government money and use it for party purposes? This is downright illegal. And the fact that the money will be managed by Umno and not the government makes it even worse. Abdullah said that the division heads would be the trustees and managers of the RM600 million and anyone who wants a share of the cake will have to ‘panda-pandai bodek Ketua Bahagian’. I can’t believe Abdullah would actually say something like that. Not only is it downright stupid to expose himself in that manner, but it shows that he has absolutely no class. A person with class would be able to put it better.

What happened to the plan to eradicate corruption and money politics? Is not giving RM3 million to each division head and asking the members to lick the balls of their division chiefs for a share of the RM3 million considered corruption and money politics? Sheesh! What is wrong with the Prime Minister? I think he is not playing with a full deck of cards. Have we put the lunatics in charge of the asylum or what?

How can you blame people wanting to run away? How will you ever reverse brain drain with this kinda leader? And with brain drain, how do you expect to compete and survive? If I were you, dear reader, I'd definitely make back up plans.
