THE UMNO PRESIDENT SPEECH

1.   The UMNO President speech at the UMNO General assembly 2015 is really disappointing. It's concentrated and limited to self-defence.

2.   The President claims that he is Gentleman, kind, brave, not coward and won't resign.

3.   Party's struggle and his leadership wasn't mentioned. Problems like 1MDB and RM2.6 billion in his account in Arab Malaysian Bank were not explained. Delegates would like to know about this so that they could explain it to members and people.

4.   No comment about country economy is getting worse, Ringgit value is depreciating and its implications to cost of living and import cost and there isn't any proposal about how to overcome these problems. Also, didn't touch about problems arose due to GST. Only explained about how the government is saved by this heavy tax charged on the people.

5.   No comment about education policy and the use of messy intermediate language.

6.   The points raised and stressed are Deputy President, Vice President and members are assisting President.

7.   The assistance mentioned in constitution is Deputy President and Vice President roles are regarded as support to President. Actually, assistance means assistance. In English, it means 

'assist" or "help". "Assistance" and "help" means giving opinion or advise about policies and actions proposed by the President. If the President is weak or unwell, then the Deputy President and Vice President will help. If the President is wrong, then the members have to correct him.

8.   But, the President only interprets assistance as support. That's what was mentioned in the speech "loyalty to leadership" is like come when called, go when asked to leave - The nobility principle of loyalty". That's all the President needs.

9.  Members at all level don't have to think, don't have to give any contributions but come when asked to come, leave when ask to go. When the President tells you to destroy the party, just destroy. Don't question, don't criticize and don't argue. This is party President policy and wish.

10.  If disobey to President's order or highlight his mistake, then action will be taken to suspend or expelled from party.
11.  There will be threat that police will be called in to question and charged.

12.  I was not only questioned by the police but also banned, worse than the opposition party leader.

13.  All doors were closed until I can't meet and talk to UMNO members or people. Hotels were issued warning that will lose business if I were allowed to speak at their halls.

14.  Deputy President is not allowed to officiate UMNO wings meeting according to party traditional. Deputy President was expelled from Deputy Prime Minister post. So is Shafie Afdal, the Vice President wasn't allowed to speak after being sacked from minister post.

15. Is it the attitude of kind Gentleman?. It's more to bossy attitude who tie enemy's hand so that he can be beaten without resistance. Previously, it's normal to challenge President and the challenger are free to talk anywhere. But now anymore. 

16.  Now, Zahid as Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister will try to get me questioned again by the police because of my speeches and writings in my blog. Under what law I'll be question. In a democratic country, it is not wrong to advise a Party President or a Prime Minister to resign. Why was I single out whereas thousands asked Najib to resign (banner brought by audience to Kedah VS Selangor match asking Najib to step down). No one is above the law in the principle of justice.


17.  Due to restriction, UMNO delegates in UMNO General Assembly are unable to ask about 1MDB and money in Najib's account that were said belongs to UMNO. The 2.6 billion Ringgit in Arab Malaysian Bank has been transferred to Singapore. UMNO is entitled for the report regarding this money . Previously, donation is given to UMNO President and deposited in UMNO fund under UMNO trustees care. The fund will be passed to new UMNO President during leadership change as UMNO money and not as President money. Why wasn't UMNO informed and the 2.6 billion Ringgit wasn't given to UMNO when Najib claimed that the money is belong to UMNO and not to him. Keeping the money is s crime.

18.  Furthermore, provide proof about income tax payment when the money was in Najib's personal account. This is also part of the law. Arab Malaysian Bank was fined 50 million Ringgit for unknown reason but as of now, Najib as the owner of the money wasn't fined at all. Which part is said that Prime Minister is above the law.

19.  The UMNO President speech in UMNO General Assembly is disappointing.

20.  Some quarters didn't even understand at all about the issue plaguing the party. They thought that it's relationship problem between the President and Deputy President. Therefore, with a handshake, all the problems will be resolved.

21.  This is not about relationship or friendship problem. This is about the President's wrongdoing that could cause the party to lose in election.

22.  Party have to choose whether the President explains the whereabout of the missing money and return it to UMNO or government or resign.

23.  But the President choose to stop the investigation about missing Government billions Ringgit. Replacing the investigation officers with unreliable will not erase people's doubt. By saying that the investigation is on going and it could be sub-judice and couldn't be discuss will not be accepted by the people. The case is not in court and discussing about it won't be sub-judice. Therefore, it's not against the law if the President explains about 2.6 billion and 1MDB. Not explaining them means there is a basis for the accusations. Again, the party will get the impact in GE14.

24.  The President claimed that 'he is willing to lead the holy fight for the Malays and Bumiputera' is unacceptable because Najib is the one abolish Ne Economy Policy and pressured Malays contractors until they becomes bankrupt. Scholarship for Malays were reduced.

25.  All these disappointed Malays and UMNO members ant they cheered when Najib was asked to resign.

26.  If Najib resign, it'll be well received. Only then, he is a kind Gentleman.

PINGGAN BERTINTA PANTUN Pinggan bertinda pantun adalah penanda yang menandakan kepentingan rangkap catur larik dalam masyarakat Melayu pada masa dahulu. Bagi pengumpul barangan seramik dan barangan tembikar, nama Staffordshire mungkin sinonim dengan nana-nama seperti Wedgwood, Royal Doulton dan Royal Albert . Barangan berjenama ini merupakan pinggan mangkuk meja dan pinggan hiasan serta patung hiasan kecil yang menghiasi meja-meja dan dinding-dinding di kebanyakan runah di Malaysia. Bagaimanapun, hanya sedikit yang menyedari bahawa ada di antara pinggan-pinggan ini mula dibuat di Staffordshire , sebuah mukim di West Midlands di England bagi pasaran timur, ditulis dengan pantun Melayu dalam tulisan Jawi. Mungkin seawal tahun 1826, beberapa rangkap catur larik Melayu yang baik telah dipindahkan ke pinggan oleh para pengusaha sebelum dibawa belayar untuk pasaran di dunia Melayu. Kebanyakan pinggan bertinta pantun ini merupakan pinggan makan biasa dan ada juga mempunya...

LESSONS FROM ANCIENT COMEDIES There is wisdom in these seemingly silly tales Picture this. A man mistakenly gives his newborn baby a bath in boiling hot water. The child's face, grimaced and distorted, reflects her agony. In the throes of death, she fails her hands about and dies in her father's arms. This is one of the most gruesome scenes in the popular Malay folk literature series of Pak Pandir.Pak Pandir, in absurd conclusion, looks at the baby's face and thinks she is laughing with glee. Mak Andeh comes home, to find her only daughter scalded to death. How this could be considered comedy is probably beyond the comprehension of the modern audiences of today. And yet, perhaps, this is the genius of the ancient comedies in delivering the simplest of messages. That sheer stupidity can cause great grief and untold personal loss. The unthinkable makes you think. Why such tales? Perhaps comedies are prevalent in all old fables as a means to share wisdom...

Bukan Sungai Mati ANEH TETAPI MENARIK : Sungai Mati, selain daripada namanya yang mengerikan, tempat ini hidup dan menyeronokan walaupun pembangunannya agak perlahan. Penulis tertarik dengan nama di pekan kecil ini yang berhampiran dengan Muar. Tersorok di pertengahan jalan utama antara Muar dan Bukit Gambir ialah sebuah pekan kecil bernama Sungai Mati. Pekan ini mudah ditemui kerana pusat bandarnya ialah tiga penjuru persimpangan jalan dengan dibarisi deretan kedai diperbuat daripada kayu. Terdapat lampu isyarat besar di persimpangan jalan tersebut yang memberi kesempatan kepada para pengguna jalan raya untuk melihat bagaimana masa tidak berlalu di bandar yang aneh tetapi menarik dalam daerah Muar. Beberapa tahun lalu, deretan kedai ini diberi nafas baharu apabila dicat dengan warna lavender, warna merah jambu dan warna biege. Penduduk di sini berkata tidak banyak perubahan berlaku di pekan ini kecuali beberapa kawasan perumahan baru dibina di pinggir perk...
