RAKYAT URGING
1.   There are UMNO members who are uneasy and angry because I shared the same stage with Kit Siang, UMNO nemesis.

2.   I won't be with Kit Siang if UMNO is still same as the UMNO founded in 1946.

3.   I didn't any reprimand and challenge when I was the UMNO President and Prime Minister. Musa Hitam, Tengku Razaleigh was nominated to contest the President and Deputy President post. Many ministers in my Cabinet, namely, Rais Yatim, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, Syed Hamid, Kadir Syeikh Fadzil campaigned supporting Razaleigh and Musa Hitam. I didn't stop them, revoke their membership.

4.   I and Ghaffar was won with simple victory. UMNO then dragged to court and was ruled illegal by the judge.

5.   I have to revive UMNO. Eventhough Razaleigh founded Semangat 46 but majority UMNO members join the New UMNO. Those who joined are Abdullah Badawi, Kadir Sheikh Fadzir, Syed Hamid and then Rais Yatim. They were reappointed as Minister. No one was sacked from UMNO except those who chose to join Semangat 46.

6.   When Semangat 46 dissolved, the members accepted back to UMNO.

7.   UMNO became stronger again eventhough those who didn't support me still in UMNO.

8.   This is UMNO way. Leaders and members are free to reprimand and challenge leaders. I was attacked by Anwar's supporters when he was Deputy President and Deputy Prime Minister.

9.   Supreme Council sacked him while giving him right to self defense. It was done by the Supreme Council.

10.  In Musa Hitam case who resigned as Deputy President and Deputy Prime Minister, the Supreme Council decided to send a team headed by Wan Mokhtar to talk to Musa to persuader him to retract his resignation. I didn't stop them.

11.  He agreed to accept back Deputy President post but not the Deputy Prime Minister post. I have to appoint Ghaffar Baba as Deputy Prime Minister while he stayed on as Deputy President.

12.  Then, Musa cajoled his enemy, Tengku Razaleigh to challenge me for the President post. Musa himself contested for Deputy President post under Tengku Razaleigh, the President post candidate.

13.  Eventhough Musa did all this, I appointed him as Special Minister to United Nations. I gave him a Minster level.

14.  All I did was according to democracy. But, today, Najib as Prime Minister, not only unable to be challenge but can't even reprimand. If anyone reprimand him, his party membership will be revoked followed by restriction not to meet UMNO members and its leaders. There are wish to suspend. No chance for self defense.

15.  Representatives to UMNO General Assembly not open to free speech. They were told not touch on 1MDB and RM2.6 billion in Najib's personal account.

16.  In this situation, can UMNO members openly support me if I reprimand Najib? Do UMNO members dared to sign the Citizen Declaration to remove Najib?

17.  A few of Branch Leaders who criticized Najib was warned, gave trouble in business, his wife's scholarship was withdrawn and many kinds of pressure.

18.  What is clear is all Ministers, UMNO Branceh Leaders, UMNO representatives all agrees with all Najib's wrongdoing. It's alright when billions of ringgit went missing, our country is one of the most corrupt nation, Malaysians are humiliated and insulted in oversea and Najib himself afraid to faced foreign media but UMNO members will support Najib.

19.  World media openly reported and detail of how Najib misused his power, detained UMNO members who made police report against him, charged him under terrorist act, detain his lawyer but UMNO leaders and members is shameless and still supports Najib.

20.  And now, laws are made to give power to Najib to side step Agong, Cabinet, Dewan Rakyat, Dewan Negara to declare curfew to any area, detained anyone without being charged in court while Najib is the Chairman National Security Council.

21.  Every party in and outside country condemn this law. Agong and Sultans didn't sign this law. His Majesty and Sultans instructed to re-examine provisions of this law.

22.  Najib didn't care about Sultans objection and advice. He went ahead with the law.

23.  Dewan Rakyat is the one can amend or reject this law. MPs from UMNO and BN won't reject power grabbing by Najib.

24.  Is there any chance my reprimand will greatly support by UMNO members? I'm free to join any movements. As a Malaysian citizen I joined poeple's movement to remove Najib. If Lim Kit Siang is in the movement, he too a citizen. We only agree in exercise and intentions to remove Najib.

25.  Due to UMNO leadership don't understand my language, once again I explain that I taking action as a citizen to inform Najib that people no longer accepts him.

26.  If Lim Kit Siang or anyone else is with me, it's because they, too, like me, as a citizen wish to stress through this by election that people no longer accepts him as Prime Minister. So to happens they are members of political party or NGO.

27.  But those who doesn't want to understand still won't understand.

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

Henry Gurney's Final Fight Gurney's funeral procession through the streets of Kuala Lumpur on Oct 8, 1951. The place is infested with mosquitoes and one glides to a halt on Siew Mah's sweat-soaked right forearm. Yet, the guerrilla commander of Pahang's 11th Regiment and close confidante of Chin Peng remains motionless at his ambush station. His eyes and mind are transfixed on the section of narrow twisting road further in front that forms an almost perfect S-shaped bend. Siew Mah moves his head slowly to check on the positions of the rest of his 38-member platoon. The movement startles the mosquito and it quickly flies away without having the chance to draw blood. From the corner of his eyes, the commander traces the tracks connected to his three Bren-gun firing positions. Satisfied, he turns to check the crucial withdrawal route where he and his men will dissolve back into the jungle once the act had been committed. The date is
