“Brave and Brilliant Political Statement PM”

In this Malaysiakini portal report http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/85866 and headlined “GLCs need not be led by UMNO Members” I thought it was a brave and brilliant political manoeuvre by our PM. 

I have said that the PM knows what he is doing and to rub it in RPK also said that he might not like Abdullah but I must certainly admire his skills. He looks stupid,he talks stupid,he acts stupid,but a man who can make you think he is stupid is actually cleverer than you.

This is certainly a way of telling you know who…that I will not easily fall for it and also this is too small a matter to even politicise the issue. On this issue, well done PM.. The Lone Ranger rides again!” “Hi-yo, Silver, away!”

“In Shark Infested Waters”- Malaysiakini

  Malaysiakini portal with this report  http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/85849 has Dr Chua Soon Bui has apparently ignored the party president’s advice to be mindful when dealing with federal leaders. Sapp head Yong Teck Lee likened this to “swimming with sharks” – but Chua took the plunge anyway, as revealed in the press photographs. 

What did we say about politicians positioning and getting most out of publicity? In our earlier columns we did say that Politicians needs all the know-how to be the darling of the media. Not unless you are like the Kinabatangan MP Bung Mohktar who is “never shy” in creating controversies. Or you are one like Sir Winston Churchill who knew his first impression of spoken words will create an impact,” I have nothing to offer but blood,toil,tears and sweat.”

So now we will call YTL,”Mr Sharkman is it?” He must be trying to change the style and the manner of people projecting previous YBs and Mps who hopped/crossover and are termed “Frogs“. I remember very well that there were many Billboards in Sabah during the hatching period as advertisements of legislators who betray their parties. Or can it be called “HERE COMES JAWS”.

MP Chua has according to Bugi Wijaya from Sabah all this while was merely stating a fact because SAPP is technically still in BN( pending their show-cause letter reply to BN ) She also mentioned that her President has told her that the window of opportunity seems to be getting narrower. The member knows that what the BN is trying to do is to create a rift amongst Chua,Raymond and Yong. The practise of divide and rule and dangling the carrot is obviously very hard to resist for most politicians. An associate professor of a local university even says the “principles are there to be compromised.”

For Yong to tell all on this issue “At first, there were doubts as to why the BN generously gave a long period of 30 days to Sapp to reply the show-cause letter. Later it dawned on us that (this) was intended to give time to BN efforts to split Sapp and isolate (me). Of course,what do you expect Mr.Yong? If the pressure is intense even the most trusted ally in politics will do a U turn as the current political situation clearly shows. Afterall we are “Malaysiabolehland“

On another note when Eric the other SAPP MP was confronted he said that,” the party does not rule out the possibility of filing a vote of no confidence against the PM. Eric said “not yet” but the party may do so “ when the time comes.” Has Eric been warned by his President ? He might not be so gullible like Dr. Chua but he too must be able to withstand whatever pressure that comes.

The political battlefield is the most ardous and stressful playing field that a human being can indulge. It usually brings out the bests in a person. The real hero is the man/women who fights even though he is scared. The legislators are the peoples choice to represent them and how they get whipped or battled scarred will be a true reflection of the person.

So SAPP you are not alone in the “Shark Infested Waters” deng,deng,deng,deng deng,deng(.Jaws Music.)

“1st Bidayuh MPs,Now Kampung Bengoh”

Beautiful Bidayuh Maidens

Erik Wang who filed for Malaysiakini has a full report and here are the copied  details  http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/85811 You make your own judgements…….

After the GE on March 8th the Sarawak Bidayuh MPs were in the news for various reasons that is unhappiness when their community were not represented in the cabinet,leaving BN and Joining Pakatan and now this Kampung Bengoh right in the heartland of Bidayuh community. It was only a couple of weeks ago PM was invited to officiate a Bidayuh function. 

A group of Sarawak villagers, who successfully took out a temporary against politically well-connected company Naim Cendera Lapan from encroaching their native customary rights (NCR) land, have claimed they were asked by the company to sign dubious documents.

Naim Cendera Lapan, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Niam Cendera said to be closely linked to powerful state politicians, has sought to extract stones from a mountain range, which is part of NCR land claimed by the villagers.

Kampung Bengoh, about an hour’s drive south of Kuching, has existed for more than a century, and the villagers depend on shifting cultivation for food crops and the harvesting of birds’ nests for their livelihood.

It is learnt that the quarry licence has been given to a contractor to extract stones for construction works relating to the RM365 million Bengoh Dam nearby over a period of five years.

The dam project was awarded to Naim Cendera, which in turn sub-contracted the work out to a Chinese company, Sino Hydro, for half the original contract sum.

Last week, the villagers won a temporary injunction to stop Naim Cendera Lapan from entering their farmland. The natives argued that the stone quarry would cause damages to fruit trees and other crops in their NCR land, located near the foothills of Gunung Rumbang,

It the latest development, villagers claimed that they were asked to sign a document purportedly requesting the company to repair the Sungei Abang bridge, build a fence around the primary school as well as a hut (pondok) for the local Rela, the controversial local voluntary security unit.

The villagers said that the bridge was not in need of repairs.

Village chief lodges police report

Bengoh village headman Kayis Genyai said he had refused to sign the document when approached on Monday night, and had yesterday lodged a police report naming the two individuals who had sought signatures from the villagers.

The two are fellow villagers – Henry Karas, a committee member of the local village security unit and Anyew Sawes, the Bengoh village chairman of the ruling PBB party and who also works for Naim Cendera as a watchman at its dam project site.

Bengoh villagers had gone to court after the company cleared parts of their NCR land for an access road to the quarry site, and in so doing destroyed their crops.

The affected landowners and the village head said they had not been consulted by the company in the quarry project.

Affected villagers had been previously approached on numerous occasions by company representatives to sign various documents.

In affidavits filed with the Kuching High Court on June 30, two villagers have detailed how they were made to sign documents after their lands and crops had been destroyed and alleging underhanded tactics in getting them to ink the documents.

When asked why he decided to lodge the police report, village chief Kayis gave three reasons:

MCPX

court injunction

• As headman, he was not even informed about the bridge repairs and other projects which were supposedly requested by the villagers.

 

• If there were problems later, the villagers would blame him because he is their headman.

 

• There is no information from relevant authorities that such projects would be provided to the community.

What is “Saiful” in the Equation.?

The D8 meeting has taken the limelight out of the main casts “Anwar,Najib,Saiful and Subramaniam’. Oh ya,have we forgotten  RPK..?

 Just as we expected, ” things” will be back to normalcy after these leaders have gone through their agendas. There were more pressing matters in hand to discuss and the Sodomy,Malaysia’s 007 missing and Altantunya case did not even make the breakfast conversations.

Syed Jamal Zahiid of Malaysiakini filed this report http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/85810 and the headlines Anwar Ibrahim today turned to the syariah courts to clear his name on the sodomy allegation made by his former aide, Saiful Bukhari Azlan.

Anwar did not want to disappoint the lunch crowd so he went with his wife and PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, filed a complaint against Saiful with the Federal Territories Islamic Affairs Department (Jawi). Anwar went on to say the estranged male aide committed qazaf or false accusation of fornication. To us the Malaysian public we have not even reach the 1st quarter of the movie”Malaysiabolehland”. There will be more twists and turns soon………….Do you agree..?
