KELANTAN - An Islamic State

The Friday “cow head” protest reminded me of my recent trip to Kelantan. I had the opportunity to talk to the Kelantanese, and I recapitulate what it was about as written in my older post under the label “Special Report”.

No matter what you read and no matter how you perceive 1Malaysia to be, it is just an idea waiting to be hatched. To be able to make 1Malaysia a reality in a multi-racial society, it is not a cinch or can be done with mere slogans, but with a strong conviction instead.

With insincere politicians shouting rhetoric instead of speaking with one tongue, 1Malaysia will just be the tag-line that is used once too often resulting in ennui.

The Malaysian multi-racial society of different ethnic make-up is beginning to understand the complications to accept the true meaning of 1Malaysia. The complications do not derive from failing to understand why integration is imperative, but from selfish politicians who are creating the confusion of fear that gives hesitation the avenue to the fence-sitters to hold back their horses!

Say what you like and opine what you deem fit, but remember what comes out from the horse’s mouth surpasses the thinking of politicians and even the intellects as well.

The trip to Kelantan for the Manek Urai by-election was an eye-opener, not only for political purposes but also a rich experience to be with the man on the street.

As usual, when comes to politics and religions, people tend to shy away yet have so much to talk about once the guarantee of their identities are bound and locked.

The most surprising of all was when they were asked about what their views were on 1Malaysia. Lost for a moment trying to figure out what I meant, was the tell-tale sign that they had no inkling what I was talking about. Their sheepish smiles to hide such ignorance had impressed upon me that I was going to have a field-day with them.

A paroxysm of laughter after my explanation to hide their ignorance was understandable. Those with curious minds would “interview” me instead wanting to know more about what is 1Malaysia all about. However, I obliged even though it was not my cup of tea.

The bottom line is that 1Malaysia is not anything new to them because for the locals, they have been “1Malaysia” ever since time immemorial! They have been able to co-exist like intelligent people without “racial contamination” is because of Tok Guru himself.

The virtues that have harnessed them to be who they are today are in the following summarized sequence.

- Understand what religion has taught them.

- Respect one another because our existence depends on it.

- Friendship derives from knowing the different religious and cultural practices and the likes and dislikes from the various communities.

“We have being living in Kelantan for more than sixty years and we are still here!”

With the opportune moment available, it was to strike when the iron is hot over more sensitive questions.

Me : What about living with other communities? Is there any problems?

Her : No, we can live together. See for yourself. We are peaceful.

Me : What has made this possible?

Her : (Shrugging her shoulders) We understand each other.

Me : How about the livelihood, is it difficult to survive?

Her : No, our business is as usual, but slow.

Me : I am more interested to know about the integration of the minor community with the higher populace of another community.

Her : Do you mean living peacefully? (I nodded my head). Do you know when other states had to experience May 13, here in Kelantan we were living peacefully.

Me : Can you tell me how Kelantan is different?

Her : If Perak is under PAS mentri besar, YB Nizar like Kelantan is under Tok Guru, the states will be fairly governed. Outside these states I have my reservation for PAS.

Me : How about religion and food especially pork?

Her : We have no problems with that. (Her husband interrupted). You can see the tallest sitting and sleeping statues of Buddha in Tumpat.

Me : What about pork?

Her : You can walk to the bus and taxi stand and you can see for yourself.

Me : Do you mean pork is allowed to sell openly?

Her : Yes!Me : Do you mean to say that there is no objection from the locals?

Her : No. What is there to object? They understand!

Me : What about pig farming then?

Her : The Siamese are allowed to rear pigs in villages and even their pigs are roaming about. Pork is also sent in from other states.

This was what had excited me (even though I am not entirely a pork-eater) because what I have heard about such restriction and able to see with my own eyes, then, I would be able to tell the world about the good of PAS government.

..............................

Note: In Selangor, we have true PAS elected state representatives and also doubtful ones.

Quote: If Perak is under PAS mentri besar, YB Nizar like Kelantan is under Tok Guru, the states will be fairly governed. Outside these states I have my reservation for PAS.

She is truly a sagacious woman who knows what she is talking about.

Who Are Fools?

SHAH ALAM, Aug 29 – Shah Alam OCPD ACP Noor Azam Jamaludin today explained that the police had failed to act during the cow-head demonstration at the state secretariat because the situation “did not permit” them to do so.

“We saw the situation was not right because we did not want to spark more anger but we will take actions based on other evidences that we have. We will take action based on evidence and against those who have been identified,” Azam said.

- Well, let us wait and see what actions will be taken.

- Peaceful protests and candlelight vigilers were quickly threatened and even arrested.

- Sedition is not a danger to the country but peaceful protests are.

- What a bloody double standard!

A Die-Hard Justice Seeker

Who Is This Man?
Anyone who attends Teoh Beng Hock’s inquest will not miss this “particular” man with a black band around his forehead.

He is not Beng Hock’s next-of-kin, but a very caring soul who stands up to seek for justice. There was no immediate rush wanting to talk to him, thinking that he would fade away after a few sessions at court.

Boy! I was dead wrong!

I caught up with him and finally got to hear from the horse’s mouth why the sacrifices. We, peace loving Malaysians have to salute and respect you, sir!

People, he is Mr.Hor Boon Chung – a die-hard justice seeker!

This is what Mr.Hor has to say ...



You have heard him loud and clear. Then, what you are going to do about it? To join his crusade or to sit back with one folded arm while the other rubbing your chin?

The anguish and the pain are painted across the faces of Teoh Beng Hock's parents. Parental love is perennial, like yours and mine which cut across all adversities.

Right across the main entrance of Shah Alam High Court, this banner carries the message telling that Teoh Beng Hock's parents are not alone.

Burma - Final Part

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere – Martin Luther King.

The military junta has brought a new case against the activist leader Aung San Suu Kyi on the flimsy basis of a visit to her house by an American man named John Yettaw. The charge is that by meeting Mr. Yettaw, Aung San Suu Kyi has violated the terms of her house arrest, but the world does not think so. Why?

John Yettaw tried the same thing last year but the authorities stopped him before he got to the house, which is one of the most well guarded places in Myanmar.

This time, he was allowed to sneak in so that the government would have an excuse to throw the book at Aung San Suu Kyi, again. The junta is looking for a way to stay in power and to thwart Suu Kyi from contesting in the elections next year.

She is scheduled for release from house arrest later this year at the completion of a 6 year sentence. But, the Nobel peace laureate Suu Kyi was ordered to spend another 18 months under house arrest, while John Yettaw flew home with Democrat Senator Jim Webb who had secured his release.

Democrat Senator Jim Webb, who has close links to US President Barack Obama, won guarantees for Yettaw's release when became the first senior US official to meet Myanmar's reclusive junta chief Than Shwe.

John Yettaw is a former Vietnam vet, 53 years old, from Falcon Missouri. His neighbours describe him as an intelligent conversationalist and an alcoholic suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.

He strapped on a pair of homemade flippers and swam over one mile across a lake to see Ms. Suu Kyi. This time he managed to sneak in and spend two nights in the house before being caught while trying to swim away.

The world now is looking at America to undo what her citizen had caused, not only to Aung San Suu Kyi, but also millions of refugees all over the world who want to go home and be liberated.

The recruitment of child soldiers in Burma is still widely practiced by the Burmese army, but this young boy made his escape to Thailand.

United States data in 2006 listed Myanmar as the world's third largest source of refugees after Afghanistan and Iraq because large groups of refugees are in hiding around the country and they are penniless and desperate.

Today, the situation is so bad that there are large numbers of refugees escaping to China, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia and Malaysia.

The Malaysian government says there are about 25,644 Myanmar asylum-seekers in the country but refugee groups believe the real figure is more than double that.

The majority are Rohingya Muslims from Myanmar's Rakhine state while the rest are Christian Chins, Karens and Shan.

Most of the Chin refugees are men in their late teens or early 20s who ran away from their homes in north-western Myanmar to escape persecution.

The groups are in very bad shape as they have no money, no food and fear for their safety. Hundreds of thousands of Chins have fled from Chin State to escape severe ethnic and religious persecution committed bythe military regime.

The UNHCR registration process has been closed since July 2005, leaving thousands of genuine refugees unable to obtain official refugee status or obtain any documents from the UNHCR.

Their daring escape to foreign countries has become an infestation to poorer countries who are unable to provide them with food, shelter and clothing.

Those who were caught by the Malaysian law enforcers and who are not registered with UNHCR were sent to the Lenggeng detention camp where they will await deportation. This is not the way they want to go home because the junta regime will mete severe punishment on them – hard labour.

Miss Universe 2009 - THAILAND

The World Has Failed Burma - Part Four

Of all political crimes, the infamous Depayin Massacre was the most shocking event in which the motorcade of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, including other senior party leaders, members and supporters were brutally attacked by the unknown military-backed thugs systematically.

More than a hundred of NLD (National League for Democracy) were killed or injured during this tragic event. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was also injured by the attack from the thugs, but she narrowly escaped from the killing field.

But justice for this crime has yet been sought in the country where there has been no rule of the law. Since then, the military generals have not taken any action against Depayin criminals instead they put Daw Aung San Suu Kyi into house arrest under the State Security Act section 10/B.

Although a person can be detained up to the maximum of five years under this law, but the military generals clearly violated the law by extending her detention period into the sixth year.

May 30 2009 is the sixth anniversary of the bloody Depayin crackdown, a massacre similar to many others committed by the military dictatorship in the past.

The 1998 democracy revolution.
The 2007 Saffron Revolution
The Nargis – was a massacre of neglect, because so many people died as a result of the government’s refusal to allow international aid and relief.

In the 6th.Anniversary of the Depayin Massacre and the extended detention of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the National League for Democracy (Liberated Area) in Malaysia strongly demanded the Burmese military generals to release her unconditionally and immediately.

Millions of refugees are all over the world and in Malaysia alone, there are more than 500,000 who need our help. They want to go home and that is all they want. Owing to the atrocities by the Junta, everyone fears for their own life and for their families.

If you live in Myanmar today, there is a huge gap between your rights and daily reality.

Forced Into Unpaid Labour

Many people are forced into unpaid labour by the army to build roads, military camps and other infra-structural projects.

Forced To Leave Home

Hundreds of thousands of civilians from ethnic minority communities have been forced to leave their villages, as part of the strategy to cut off support to armed opposition groups.

Whole villages have been razed, obliterating people’s homes and possessions. Thousands fled to other countries to escape from forced relocation and other abuses.

Many have been victims of other human rights violations by the government including extra-judicial executions and the confiscation of their land.

Denied Citizenship

Many Rohingya are not recognised as citizens by the government. A Bengali-speaking Muslim ethnic minority group living in western Myanmar for centuries, yet cannot marry or travel without getting official permission and not allowed to own property.

Locked Up For Years

Thousands of government critics have been imprisoned for peaceful activities like writing histories or poems, or defending human rights. (Writer’s note: If I post what I have being writing in Myanmar now, I am sure I will be in the hard labour camp at no time until the day I see my Creator).

Prisoners of conscience are serving prison sentences up to 106 years solely for peacefully exercising their basic rights.

Tortured To Death By The Police Or Military

Torture and ill-treatment are common. Criminal suspects, political prisoners, ethnic minority farmers and former members of the government have been subjugated to brutal treatment by both the police and military to extract information or to punish them.

You Cannot Complain

Scores of people have been imprisoned for speaking out about practices like forced labour, torture, heinous prison conditions, arbitrary imprisonment and restriction on political members. Justice Is Denied!

The World Has Failed Burma - Part Three

"Please use your liberty to promote ours." - Aung San Suu Kyi

This is Aung San Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, who won a landslide election in 1990. She has been repeatedly imprisoned and lives under house arrest by the military junta.

Premeditated Depayin Massacre

The most BRUTAL military juntas in the world.

After her freedom from 19 months house arrest on May 6, 2002 Daw Aung San Suu Kyi began her organization trips outside of Rangoon. Her release from house arrest was unconditional and as approved by the SPDC she could freely travel throughout the country.

Her first Rangoon precinct trip was to Shwe Pyi Thayar Township NLD head office on 17 May 2002 followed by trips to Daw-bon township NLD head office on 22 May 2002, on 24 May 2002, Kamayut Township NLD head-office, on 13 June 2002, as her fifth trip in Rangoon precinct, she visited Thakayta NLD head office.

Throughout the trip mentioned, she received overwhelming support from the people. She later made her upper Burma trips from 20 June 2002 to 29 June 2002 visiting (16) township in Mandalay and Magwe Divisions continued by trips to Mon and Karen States visiting 12 Townships from (14 Oct 2002 to 17 Oct 2002).

She then visited 14 townships in Pegu Division from (13 Nov 2002 to 27 Dec 2002), 17 Townships in Shan States from (16 Dec 2002 to 24 Dec 2002), and 15 Townships in Arakan States, Magwe Division and Irrawaddy Division from (3 April 2003 to 13 April 2003).Daw Aung San Suu Kyi had experienced harassment from SPDC since 1996. The USDA had interrupted Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and caused her trouble throughout her journey in many ways.

Such plot against Daw Aung San Su Kyi had since been arranged in 1996 and was revealed by the SLORC/ SPDC Minister of Railways Transport Ministry and secretary of the USDA U Win Sein.

On 1 Nov 96 at 14:00 hrs, in the compound of the Le Pyin village primary school which is about 1 mile away from Inndaw Township of Sagaing Division, the entire village USDA members' proposals submitting ceremony was held.

U Win Sein who participated in the ceremony, delivered a speech to the attending villagers making strong personal attack on Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. Furthermore he stated that the creator of the internal political disturbances, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, must be eradicated.

"Do you understand what is meant by Eradicated"? "Eradicated means to kill", and added, "Dare you kill Daw Suu Kyi?". He repeated this 5 or 6 times, but no one answered him. In addressing the people by microphone and raising the question dare you kill Daw Suu Kyi was heard not only by those attending the ceremony but also villagers in the village and by monks in the monastery.

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was injured when she was brought by force back to Rangoon from above roadside. Daw Aung San Suu Kyi’s car was put off the road by the authority during her trip to Irrawaddy Division in August 1998.

Regarding this matter, NLD chairman U Aung Shwe informed Senior General Than Shwe by letter with letter No: 179/Cee (Nyein)/96 of 20 Dec 96.

The World Has Failed Burmah - Part Two.

In 1988, when students and monks were massacred in Myanmar, Universities were closed and the education system completed its deterioration. Burma regime infiltrates demonstrations to spark violence.

At least 4,000 or more monks have been arrested and questioned by government authorities in their recent crackdown on protests favoring democracy for the nation. It is reported that they are being held at the Government Technological Institute, the Kyaikkasan racing track and in a prison called Insein Prison.

From these locations, they will be transported to prisons located in the extreme northern part of Burma. The monks have not been allowed to wear their robes and are in shackles, and some of them have been beaten. Many have also initiated a hunger strike, refusing to eat.

The aftermath of a massacre of 12 villagers who were attempting to flee to Thailand after their villages were forcibly relocated by Burma’s military regime.

30-40 villagers had stopped to sleep for the night at two huts in the forest when the Burmese military came upon them, lined up in front of the hut, and opened fire.

Ten were killed immediately including children aged 2, 5, 7,14 and a dead pregnant woman.

Millions of Burmese people have been forced to leave their homes by the military regime; relatively few escape to refugee camps in Thailand.

The vast majority of the villagers eke out a living in the jungle, always on the run from the regime - the Junta!

What is a Junta?

A junta is a government run by committee that has taken the meaning of a military government. Different then a dictatorship, a junta is a collection of rulers, in the case of the Burmese, the military leaders.

Burma’s Gen. Than Shwe, has a history of war crimes and must be indicted for murdering his own people.

Evil Burmese General Than Shwe, forbids dissent. He is afraid of the monks power and has now chosen to arrest, torture or kill them. He has also sent untold numbers to northern Burma slave labour camps.

The young generation was taught to accept and internalize the twisted histories and other lies fed to them in state run schools instead of being taught how to use their brains, how to think, and how to question.

The news and media surrounding them was always manipulated and controlled by the Junta. Myanmar is a country in which rumours fly as no where else

To be continued ...

The World Has Failed Burmah - Part One.

Myanmar is made up of 135 national races, of which the main national races are Kachin, Kayah, Kayin, Chin, Bamar, Mon, Rakhine and Shan.

The population is estimated to be over 60 million and there are more than 500,000 (including refugees) in Malaysia today.

The nationality is Myanmar. There are more than 100 ethnic groups in Myanmar. Some of the Ethnic groups are listed as Akha, Palaung, Padaung, Naga, Taron, Eng and many more near extinct tribes.

The religions are Buddhist, Christian and Muslim. The major language is Myanmar, but minority ethnic groups have their own languages. English is widely spoken and understood.

Burma is also known as Myanmar. The country's military rulers changed the official English name from Burma to Myanmar in 1989. They also changed the capital's English name from Rangoon to Yangon.

Burma was a parliamentary democracy from 1948 until 1962, when the military took over. Under the rule of a man named Ne Win, the Burmese army imposed a quasi-socialist police state on the Burmese people.

Over two-and-half decades, Win and his military goons wrecked the country. What was once a relatively prosperous (by Southeast Asian standards) country with natural resources and brainpower was turned into an oppressive, poverty-stricken mess.

Aung San Suu Kyi, the daughter of Gen. Aung San, a hero of the Burmese independence movement who was assassinated by political rivals in 1947.

Aung San Suu Kyi was a mother and housewife in the U.K. She flew to Burma early that year to take care of her sick, elderly mother

Moved by the courage of anti-government protesters, she delivered the first public political speech of her life on Aug. 26, 1988. She electrified the crowd of 100,000 by calling for multi-party elections.

The Burmese military was not amused. In the days that followed, it slaughtered up to 3,000 demonstrators and placed Suu Kyi under house arrest. She went on a hunger strike – demanding that she be placed in the same miserable prison as her lesser-known pro-democracy leaders.

In 1990, the military allowed elections. Suu Kyi's party won in a landslide, so the military nullified the result. Suu Kyi has spent the last 17 years in prison or under house arrest.

Riot police and military personnel crack down on the protests in Yangon. There are reports of a brutal crackdown at night, with hundreds of people killed in villages, towns and cities.

They came to kill the monks!

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi

Amnesty International also notes that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, a prisoner of conscience, is one of more than 2,100 political prisoners in Myanmar. On the 8thof August , the Junta sentenced Aung San Suu Kyi to a further 18 months house arrest for violating an earlier condition of her existing house arrest, after an uninvited man spent two nights there in early May. Amnesty International condemns her arrest and finds this as nothing more than a legal and political agenda.

Dariff Din (Personal Assistant To YB Lau Weng San) Segment 01 - Politics

As a political assistant to a politician, it is never easy because the amount of work load does not seem to end. The time that is required to spend on administrative work and the attention on the complaints from the constituents are the important aspects that cannot be overlooked.

This is the demands to achieve the maximum effectiveness of any personal assistant.


However, in any professions, there is always a risk regarding job hazard that comes with it. Even the least expected profession as a personal assistant has to face with this new phenomenon of getting killed in a strange manner.

Will it deter all personal political assistants to carry on with their duties or it is better to look for another job?

Dariff Din has his own point of view and how he is going to carry on with what he should as a personal political assistant.

Financial Cycle

It is the month of August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.

Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town. He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to choose one.

The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the butcher.

The butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the pig grower. The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.

The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the town's prostitute that in these hard times, gave her "services" on credit.

The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.

The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro note back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not suspect anything.

At that moment, the tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 Euro note, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.

No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism.....

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States Government is doing business today.

Stinking Mouth Speaks The Loudest

06 Aug 2009

Federal Territories Minister Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal today said that RM20 million damages claimed by various quarters as a result of loss of business and income arising from the anti-ISA rally last Saturday have been accounted for.

Furthermore, he added that the bad press coverage in the international media like Al-Jazeera and CNN also created a negative image for Kuala Lumpur.

He claimed that this may have caused a reduction in the number of foreign tourists - especially from the Middle East.

When asked about what actions were available to the traders, Raja Nong Chik replied that they can firstly lodge a police report and then follow up with legal action against those responsible.

When asked about the damages that may have been caused by police actions during the rally, he said that "the damages from police action, even if it exists, were very minor".

Dumb Statement!

04 Aug 2009

The rally against the Internal Security Act (ISA) in Kuala Lumpur last Saturday was aimed at provoking the police into invoking the law which allowed for detention without trial, Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin

The police are now handling the matter. They can take whatever action they see fit (against the organisers of the rally) but some people want to provoke the police to ensure they are detained under the ISA. Then, they can say, 'See, I told you'," he was quoted as saying by Bernama.
