    by walski69  6-14-2009   
     Some mistakes are difficult to undo, even if it were a sincere one. What's more interesting is to see what the resolution's supporters have to say about this.

    Hindraf trio, 10 others freed from ISA
    walski69
    by walski69  5-8-2009   
     Damage control after the Ipoh affair? Regardless, this is indeed good news. FYI - the ISA (Internal Security Act) allows for detention without trial for up to 2 years, with renewable 2-year detention orders, indefinitely. It has been a continuing blot on Malaysia's human rights record.

     It's official - Najib has been sworn in as Malaysia's 6th Prime Minister, and it's first "annointed" one (as some political commentators have stated).

    Najib Knows Best

    Second opinion? You mean they're not sure, either?
    walski69
    by walski69  2-28-2009   
     The fact that UMNO has gone to consult a QC in London seems to point to the possibility that they're not entirely certain the appointment's constitutional, either.

    Idiotic reaction from Home Minister
    walski69
    by walski69  2-16-2009   
     Definitely not the sharpest tool in the cabinet... especially after the politician involved filed a police report, and publicly stated that she was victimized.

    Snow and the whole nation grinds to a halt!
    walski69
    by walski69  2-3-2009    1
     It's very surprising how unprepared most of the UK is (with the possible exception of Scotland) when it comes to adverse weather. Snow the past 2 days has litereally ground the country to a halt, with buses and trains facing lots of service disruptions. If it snowed in Malaysia, I can understand... but the UK?

     When the Jerit bike campaign included teens (with their parents' permission), the police who harassed and arrested the campaigners complained that using "children" was deplorable. What are they going to say about this Malaysian Government plan?

    Boycott products by Jewish companies: PPIM
    walski69
    by walski69  1-6-2009    2
     While the intention may be noble, i.e. to send a strong message, the repercussions are going to affect Malaysians (not the US or Israel), of whom thousands are employed by these so-called "Jewish companies". A majority of which are Muslims. Incidentally, PPIM has also been consistently calling for the boycott of 3 entities specifically (although not mentioned by name in the article): Starbucks, McDonalds, and Colgate.

    Court orders Raja Petra's release
    walski69
    by walski69  11-6-2008   
     Has Justice finally come (back) to Malaysia? This is definitely great news, regardless. Let's hope Raja Petra's defense lawyers also make sure that he's not re-arrested upon leaving the court, something which the Malaysian Police have done in the past, a blatantly contemptuous action.

     According to current PM Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, that is. Actually, from the Federal Constitution point of view, what the PM said is spot on. Whether the rest of UMNO (Abdullah's party) agrees or not is another kettle of fish altogether...

    Malaysiakini - BN mulls new multi-racial group
    walski69
    by walski69  10-11-2008   
     Losing part of the plot... but in my mind, BN is still built upon the sum of its parts. And the parts will probably still be race-based.

    Radioactive leak: MP blasts Mindef
    walski69
    by walski69  9-26-2008   
     The issue here is the complacency of the Ministry of Defence, and also the Ministry of Environment, merely because "no report had been lodged". Granted, the leak was very, very minor. Perhaps if a Blinky-type creature suddenly appeared, only then people would take notice?

     Yes, it was him... whose view of nation building means ONLY seeing it from UMNO's point of view. If there were an Academy Award for Hypocrisy, Syed Hamid should be the rightful receipient...

    Syed Hamid: Raja Petra’s articles ridiculed Islam
    walski69
    by walski69  9-24-2008    1
     It's nice to be able to be a one-man judge, jury and executioner... But it's true: many of Raja Petra's articles would anger Muslims - against a corrupt and self-serving government that Syed Hamid represents.

    Dog Food? Or "like" dog food
    walski69
    by walski69  9-23-2008    1
     It's funny how the media picks up on things... but I would have to agree that Dog Food is more sensational that "like" dog food. And "sensational" sells better than hard facts any 'ol time...

    Malaysiakini: Law minister threatens to quit over ISA
    walski69
    by walski69  9-14-2008   
     I've always held Zaid Ibrahim in high regard as a politician. He's in fact a total misfit in contrast to the rest of UMNO. He is definitely a person of high integrity. And he really should just quit if the Government refuses to release Teresa Kok and Raja Petra Kamaruddin.
