Enough Is Enough To The Egyptians
About two thousand Malaysians after the Friday prayers marched to the U.S.Embassy to protest the U.S.support for Hosni Mubarak. The Egyptians want the regime to go.
The Egyptians like the Malaysians want democracy and good governance!

Calling Tenang, Are You There?
All “ceramahs” have to stop. Time of writing for this forecast is12.09 a.m. Sunday morning.
I am not over-zealous nor conservative with the figures but rather on the gut-feel of what Sunday evening will bring for this Tenang by-election.
My bottom dollar is still for cikgu Normala. The first woman “adun” from PAS is a good omen for Johor and she is going to set free the butterfly effect in our Malaysian political scenario for a change!
There are a number of forecasts in favour for BN to win in this Tenang by-election even with a lesser majority. Well, I beg to differ.
It is difficult to garner support from the Malays and for PR, the best they could be happy with, is even with 30% support from them.
The hope is from the Chinese and if PR could garner 75% and above, it will be a different ball game.
PR has the edge with the Indians support even at 55% will be a good deal.
The probability of a win for PR in this forecast is much depended on the turnout to vote. If the turnout is between 79% and 84% then a slim margin of majority for PR will definitely be an upset for BN.
With a negligible number of postal votes, then it is not difficult to create an off-set.

Blatant Abuse of AG's Power
Over a misunderstanding in a swimming pool, a 14-year old M.Mughilan was already jailed for 2.5 months without trial.
The incident happened on the 3.August 2010 at Pantai Hill Park Condominium, Kuala Lumpur.

The excitement is still brewing in Tenang
The usual BN election goodies is the trademark of corrupt indulgence and the Chinese 1Malaysia NGO’s team may come from a small portion of the 25% Chinese who are still the staunch supporters of MCA.
You may wonder where the percentage (25%) is plucked up from.
Let’s look at the past Kuala Terenggannu by-election. The Chinese played a crucial and smart move. They too received “ang pow” and oranges from BN/MCA but PAS won.
The Tenang Chinese is playing the same mind game and that is, the whole family would not go for one party. Even though one particular party is earmarked to be cast aside, but to keep it floating for enough air is the correct strategy.
MCA meant a lot to the older Chinese generation who are more attached to sentiments but the young generation gives two-hoots for MCA and BN.
A typical Chinese family is averaged at six persons per household. Somehow, not all will vote for PAS or BN. Take 1 in a family of 6 (17 %) or 2 in a family of 6 (34 %) to vote for BN is a pragmatic hypothesis.
With a little juggling the plus/minus figure will come close to 75 % in favour for PAS and 25 % for BN.
On the surface, PAS will win in Tenang. What helps in this by-election are the various events that have taken place recently.
Chua Soi Lek’s Factor
Anyone for the matter who could survive his sexual tryst made public and emerged the leader of his community, he is definitely not a political novice.
Many readers did not take kindly over the comments made by Chua Soi Lek about Teoh Beng Hock’s finding and his recent incessant remarks about Normala not shaking hands with males. The MCA president is not doing all these without a reason.
Crossing the Rubicon at Tenang is what MCA president is riding on. It does not matter if the MCA members in Tenang agree or disagree, because this is his calculated shot where he has nothing to lose. Being made to hold a double edge sword and in a situation between the devil and deep blue sea, his desperation cannot be veiled for too long.
He stirred the hornet’s nest of the Chinese and provoked the bee’s hive of the Malays. A long double-barrel could be held at his temple and having to walk a one-way street, he would rather help PAS to win in a way he finds satisfaction by flexing his muscles in a smart way.
Whoever wins in Tenang, Chua Soi Lek wins.
Perkasa’s Dread
The emergence of Perkasa has made more fence-sitters come to their senses. Like charlatans promulgating virtue and righteousness, they have fallen flat even among the muslims.
Perkasa is deemed to be a political catalyst with racist purpose to create fear and misunderstanding among the people. The unmasking of Perkasa’s deeds is from their own controversy like charlatans would do and should be!
Malaysia is in a dire need for truth but not for spewing hatred and racism. No matter whoever is in the political divide, they know Perkasa serves only UMNO.
Interlok Awakening
If only the Indians could harness their cooperation and stop forming new political parties, then you have stronger voice and command the respect that you deserve.
The more divided you are the easier it is for manipulation. When are you going to see the value of cooperation to stop the Indians from being taken for granted?
Interlok has reached Tenang! The Indian community will not keep quiet will they? Like the Chinese, there are Indians who are still the staunch supporters of BN who will never learn.
Can this small populace of about 1,780 Indians create an impact to derail BN with a wider majority? You bet your “tutu” that together with the Chinese and Malays, they are making the Butterfly Theory to take effect at Tenang!
PR should be consistent in their “ceramahs” by explaining what the rakyat should know. For BN and PR to make a slip from now on will be very costly indeed.
