Israel has gone too far

Barbarous as it was... No one ...not even a person endowed with the slightest fraction of decency would either support or condoned the inhumane actions purpotrated by the militant outfit Hamas on the 8th of October ... Hamas went on a killing spree that can't be justified by any religious doctrine nor by any other order of reasoning...It was outright brutality and massacre ....Period. At the aftermath, as expected retaliatory measures by IDF were inevitable... Israel has to protect the sanctity of its people and nation.It is of patriotic obligation and so, deemed justified. As it stands, the escalating conflict sees no end at sight..The prerogative of drawing the line , ultimately calling for a cease fire is furthest from Netanyahu's mind . The world's populace has witnessed the pinnacle of the conflict and is left with little choice but to draw the line.. What started out as retaliatory measures has turned into mass genocide. Atrocities committed against Palestinian civilians especially women and children cannot be viewed as a form of retaliation.. To this, Israel has gone too far... Biblical scriptures writes about the Ezekiel war... Ezekiel war as prophecised hangs on the loop... In all certainty this war against Hamas which has spilled over onto innocent Palestinians strays decisively away from written scriptures.... The video presents a South African view point of the issue.. Take a listen... https://youtu.be/t-hX1xPZmNo?si=YS37ZzZkid06KE0Z

Flawed conviction of Rosmah Mansur


In spite of  being loathed for her alleged involvement in the daily affairs of the Najib Umno led government and of the  luxuries she attained as the PMs spouse... the criminal justice system erred tremendously in convicting her on the corruption charges... 

What is clear, she was never in anyway bestowed with the authority to dictate terms nor determine a bias conclusion to any decision process.. 

As a spouse of a highly influential figure..the ultimate 'power' she had was purely  persuasion to have matters done in her favour... 

Persuasion obviously in these circumstances can't be construed as an illegal act . 

In contrast , those who were in authority who succumbed to 'instructions' amid abided to approve the deal are the culprits that'd broke the anti graft laws.. 

In citing, the purported handing over of cash, the main player was Rizal Mansur, a personal aid to Rosmah at the time.

Rizal was  slapped with the same charges .. The prosecution later used him as a prosecution witness..

By dropping all charges against him, Rizal was ever willing to assume the role of a turned coat.. 

What must be noted is that Rizal Mansur was never an agent provocateur prior to his detention .. His 'hostility' towards Rosmah began right after he struck a deal with the prosecution... 


In convicting Rosmah Mansur , the entire apparatus of the government including the judicial branch have gone back to the dark age of feudalism....

The Malayan Debacle, Semenyih By Election

The Malayan debacle, If it is a mono racial form of authority then it's against the norms of democracy in a multi cultural, multi religious society.

Pay heed , a democracy is measured by the way minorities are treated..

Equalised the power sharing platform into a multiracial set-up then at a flip of the coin on the other side lies the spectre of who comes first among equals..

Clearly, when merit is shoved aside and in its domain the shouts,scream and  cries for policies base on ethnicity  , a society at its best will be entrapped in a web of despicable feelings of tolerance, and at its worst polarised ...

In the Semenyih by election netizens may concur the second straight lost in a By Election is the failure to comply to promises that were made by the ruling coalition  and escalations of prices of goods etc.. but what is beneath all of these bread & butter issues dwells the animosity and dissatisfaction of the majority malay masses towards the appointments of senior ministerial , civil and top judges posts to the non Malays...

To harness the thinking credentials of the majority malay mind and to bare their mental faculty  in earnest,the narratives  below are of help 👇👇



The Semenyih Signal?

LGE spooked the market,
Semenyih result spooked PH,
Easier for TunM to act,
Drop and recharge cabinet set.

If reaction 'nothing has changed' ,
In one term the govt will be changed,
So do take heed and act seriously,
People power is a basis of democracy. (should read the malay people power)

Why the people have apprehensions,
They have so many dissatisfactions,
Their business, economy and living affected,
Their safety education requests not attended.

The Malays are the most dissatisfied

Don't  sloganise like 'Malaysia Baru' ,
When it's really rhetorics not true,
Long list of delayed promises,
Why lie to people with compromises.

Once the Malays do unite,
There is little to stop the tide,
They want to regain control of country,
No more Malay puppets of DAP.

It's not about Najib or Anwar,
It's a bigger fight and war,
Integrity is set to stay,
Get moving no more delays.

Lessons of Semenyih sobering,
Good for PH to pause and think,
A 5 year mandate can easily be that,
When sentiments have become this bad.

May God continue to bless,
This great country to trade and invest,
China Europe America  Korea Japan,
Singapore too don't irk be friends.

What is the country's direction,
Confusion uncertainties perception,
We already have a working Constitution,
Good laws traditions and institutions.

Dont accuse Malay struggle as racial,
Its finding a way for modern  survival,
Chinese and Indians have enough shared,
The Malays have been generous beyond compare.


Don't disturb the trajectory of history,
Address the gaps and inequality,
If the majority Malays are not happy,
It's not going to be a developed country.

The imminent threat of Radical Islam

The extremists elements from within the Islamic corridors are adamant to propelled the religion into a political affiliation.

This is not only alarming that the ideology will create segregation amongst various communities but also the imminent threat of religious violence and counter retaliation...

This is why, China forbids the spread of monolithic religions in its homeland. So can we forthrightly come out and point fingers at them??

Radical Islam today is entrenched in a time zone where Christianity was in the medieval years right up to early 18th century.

Those harsh periods witness the authoritarian reigned of religious clergymen empowered with tremendous stately powers to the extent of whatever they uttered would eventually turned into a decree and subsequently law.

The atmosphere then in medieval Europe and its surrounding vicinity were religiously oppressive ,  religious clerics purportedly held the keys to the peoples salvation.

Foundations base on monotheism as it is with monolithic religious faiths are sleeping volcanoes waiting to erupt.

Any form of tilt in comprehension or misconceptions about the fundamental messages these Abrahamic faiths l have for mankind are bound to produce radicals overwhelmed by sheer fanaticism amidst the  likelihood of these religious outfits  if not treaded with caution  are  bound imminently as we bear witness  to create  polarization and crimes in the name of religion no matter how the devotion of love or turn the other cheek mantra is professed...

Simply a Malayan Called

https://m.paralympic.org/news/ipc-strip-malaysia-2019-world-para-swimming-championships

Malaysia has an  excuse for banning Israel's participation bcuz of Palestine... and the ipc has a reason to strip Malaysia the right of being host to the world para swimming championships for Jew bashing...

Politics,religion and race falls in the equation , what are the ordinary citizens stand on this?

Malaya with a 60% muslim malay populace would almost certainly echo in agreement the government's decision.

But what about Sarawak or Sabah for that matter, are the two Borneo regions in solidarity with their Malayan counterpart on this particular issue??

Perhaps both the state's SLAs are reluctantly  in favour of the central government's decision bearing in mind  the central government holds the prerogative of overseeing foreign policies. Nevertheless there is an "air of doubt" that the majority of Borneo Malaysia citizens are able to see eye to eye on the issue.

Sarawak in particular where the events are supposed to be held is a non muslim majority region and neither quibbling about semantics over allegations of Israel's war crime committed against the Palestinian people  nor religious fanaticism least of all being anti semitic  comes close to be associated with its people.

Unlike their overwhelmingly in numbers  Malay Malayan counterparts that are shrouded in hatred towards the Zionist regime and take on reality is bent the people of the two Borneo regions are sensible enough to keep their mental fraternity intact thus enabling to distinguish between a sporting event and what is political correctness (whatever that means)

This is a Malaysian government's decision but it does not represent either Sarawak or Sabah. The decision may plainly be construed as a Malayan called...

So let it be told to the world community...

Untuk Islam kembali ke zaman kegemilangan kuantiti seharusnya di ketepikan dan kualiti di utamakan

Untuk Islam kembali ke zaman kegemilangan kuantiti seharusnya di ketepikan dan kualiti di utamakan: ���� https://www.malaysia-today.net/2019/01/21/islam-belum-tentu-menjamin-kebahagian-kata-aktivis-pakatan-harapan/ Masalah sedemikian um...

Untuk Islam kembali ke zaman kegemilangan kuantiti seharusnya di ketepikan dan kualiti di utamakan

🤞🤞
https://www.malaysia-today.net/2019/01/21/islam-belum-tentu-menjamin-kebahagian-kata-aktivis-pakatan-harapan/

Masalah sedemikian umat Islam Melayu dan sejagat  perlu menangani secara pengkuhususan dan dalam masa yg sama mewujudkan pemikiran yg terbuka, perlu di ingat Bapa Saudara Nabi pun tidak memeluk Islam sehingga wafat...

Ini jelas menepati sabda tiada paksaan dalam seperkara pun dalam Islam. Lanjutan pada perkara ini, tindakan seseorang memutuskan hubungannya dengan Islam tidak terbatas pada lafaz semata mata malah perbuatan dan cara kehidupan  adalah yard stick dan bench mark penentuan utama...

Jika seseorang tu melafazkan secara ucapan perlu ada kebebasan beragama namun amalan hariannya menepati seruan akidah , solat pada waktu, beramal jahriah,berpuasa wajib serta mempraktikan kehendak agama sepenuhnya, adakah dikatakan apostate berbanding seorang yg mendabik dada melafazkan ucapan dirinya seorang Islam namun cara kehidupan sama sekali bertentangan dgn akidah dan seruan agama..

Sehubungan itu, pendakwah dan penganut Islam perlu menyelami apa kehendak agama Islam dalam erti kata sebenarnya serta menyedari bahawa hanya dengan kuantiti yg ramai tanpa kualiti akan melemahkan institusi keislaman dan pada jangkamasa panjang akan mejatuhkan institusi keislaman..

Sebaliknya Islam dengan kualiti yang tinggi bukan sahaja akan membolehkan Syair Islam menyerlah tetapi akan juga mewujudkan keunggulan Islam semula...

So how is the best way of achieving this??, certainly not thru sheer numbers.

Kalau bilangan umat ramai sahaja tanpa keimanan dan landas prinsip yang utuh,

there is no way of achieving excellence in the name of Islam.

Kualiti dalam aspek keilmuan intelek di iringi dengan kekuatan serta ketabahan spiritual sahaja adalah pemangkin yg bisa mengharungi segala kejayaan menjurus ke arah kemegahan...

Ambil saja kesimpulan dari Kalifah Ali Ibn Abi Talib yang kehilangan perisai mampu mencabut pintu seberat 850 paun dan menggunakan nya sebagai perisai , dan sesudah tamat pertempuran pengikut pengikut nya bersilih ganti mencuba tetapi gagal mengangkat pintu berkenaan...

Lihatlah dan sedari kualiti yang di miliki dalam seorang bernama Kalifah Ali jelas mengatasi bilangan atau kuantiti yang berpihak pada Islam..

For Islam to be superior again , justice and absolute fairness should be the hallmark... Discard all hypocrisy and all other self serving missions...Amin

The Sunda Tsunami, Natures Rage-God's Wrath

Down the years, It has become a norm for natural disasters to strike the coastlines of the Nusantara Archipelago this time of year.
The latest, being the Sunda Straits Tsunami lest then a week ago.

Hitherto,  two or three decades ago South Asia was frequently at the receiving end the wrath of nature's fury. Almost at precise intervals each calendar year recurrence of flash floods (unlike the ones we are accustomed to) "ran" berserk in those territories . Waters were recorded to rise at unprecedented heights of 20 to 200 feet completely inundating an entire settlement destroying crops, livestock and laid claimed to a high number of human casualties..

In forthcoming years it is predicted the heartland of America will experienced a catastrophic calamity in about the same calendar year, and it won't be brought about by an arsenal of Chinese , North Korean or Russian nuclear warheads raining on their skies but that of natures rage of super typhoons, tornadoes,tidal waves etc.

While we( Malaysia) are blessed by the elements  to be positioned in a buffer zone, any tilt in the world's "paksi" an ancient Urdu word denoting an invisible astronomical thread literally described as "God's Hand" in the dead sea scrolls that holds us(earth) in orbit, spells disaster.

As we go about celebrating the gift and  life's joys this festive season take heed and be cautious that the man upstairs flirts with the extravagance , self-centeredness and despicable hypocrisy that surrounds us.

Disaster which leads to grief no matter how miniature a scale or 'epitome' a proportion is his prerogative...

Merry x mas and a bless in abundance  New Year 2019.

It's about old man Dir once again

Mahathir is a person who will teased the majority Malay masses accustomed to the country owe you a living syndrome. , play to the gallery to the wants of the ordinary populace.Build a good rapprochement amongst the Chinese and Indian elite.

Have done so in his 22 years of a despot dictatorship kind of governance before surrendering his throne..
.
The man is a political animal meticulous in gathering flaws of the executive and a  corrupted Malay dominated  civil service.

The aim  obviously was not to bring about a clean corrupt free administration.On the contrary, It was to inflict fear in the minds and hearts of political warlords and senior government personnel to submission . A maneuver that had  enable the old man to cement political power and influence for several decades .
The  high aptitude at both manipulation and intimidation – going as far as jailing political opponents on bogus charges, as it was with Anwar 20 years ago was a SOP in the Mahathir led regime.

Stand in his way, MAHATHIR will not hesitate to utilize every damn government apparatus available against you, the reason  why he was offered the PMship to run the country once again.
Neither Anwar nor any other PH Malay leader possessed the balls to drag Najib or the entire entourage of UMNO to face justice, only Mahathir was ready and willing..
Had Najib been pro active in executing a barrage of legal charges against both  Mahathir's son Mukzani and Mukhriz while in power the scenario would have certainly been different.

Pinky lips assumed his good charms playing Santa was good enough to see him through..An assumption that turn out to be his worst night mare.

In a Malay conservative setup, one other typified subject of interest  which Mahathir has continuously abstain with flying colors
would be the unkosher elements   that the holier than thou 😇😇  influential Malay religious bureaucrats declare a jihad against, lifting him a top the righteous ladder.
Another tool useful  to counter accusations amid keep would be dissidents at check.

Apart from this, Mahathir is given too much credit,  more than he deserves.

You need not be a rocket scientist  to rule the ruse In a Malay majority crowd , all you need is to dangle a carrot in one hand 🤑🤑and a whip in another💪👊. This had been a British modus operandi applied (with perfection) to the Malay Rajas right down to the Village head .
Mahathir adopts the same sets of rule,  simply because its so effective in a nerdy-dorky dominated community🤣🤣

https://www.malaysia-chronicle.com/?p=145932u

Yes,  I am a blogger🖕🖕 myself and we did cross swords on several occasions.

And yes again,
Papagomo befits the title "Big Bully" .

In his heyday, as recent as before the outcome of GE 14 when UMNO was the masters of the Malayan universe  he was the supremacist party's number one honcho operating from within and without  propagating bloodshed, delivering threats and casting aspersions on particularly the others (read non Malays) .

Political enemies of similar creed and religious belief were rendered outcast for rubbing shoulders with the "infidels"..

To UMNO , in order to submerge their theft of the nation's coffers the likes of Papagomo comes in handy,  prioritise as a running dog to viciously hound at so called dissenters.
Bangsa and Agama has always been the epidemiological ( the cure and the disease) stance, the domain and a cling to authority regardless of the consequences.

it was always about the effectiveness of  instigation, the fanning of religous sensitivities and every other aspect of subjugation to grasp on to Power.

The obvious outcome after 60 years of UMNO hegemony has all but this to offer.

The clarion indoctrination of "UMNO malay" supremacy has led the country astray deep into the woods,

 An edict preached too often that has sadly penetrated into the abysmal depths of Malayan society.

The present government bears the brunt thus suffer the wrath of the Malay masses on various reform agendas..

What is anticipated hence feared , after Mahathir who possessed  the guts to take the bulls by the horns, the present government under tremendous pressure would concede and do a u turn henceforth begin pandering to the brainwashed Malay masses...
If this were to happen and history were to repeat itself,  then yup!!! We are ushered back to square one....

Parti Warisan Sabah janganlah Sampai dilabel ' Ibarat Melukut Di Tepi Gantang '


"Berputar pada sentimen kenegerian seperti yang hangat digempar gemburkan pucuk pimpinan parti secara idealnya dilepaskan pada Persatuan Persatuan Kebudayan atau NGO menanganinya dan bukanlah istihlah perjuangan yang dijadikan sebahagian dari hallmark didukung oleh sebuah Parti politik melainkan parti sedimikian telah ketandusan matlamat lantas kehilangan halatuju."























Merujuk kepada Artikel Shafie Apdal : Berikan Penghormatan Kepada Sambutan Pesta Kaamatan yang dipetik dari Portal Online Borneo Today bertarikh 26hb April 2017.

                
























Shafie Apdal (Gambar )




















Pesta Kaamatan atau nama lain iaitu (Tadau Kaamatan) atau di dalam bahasa Kadazan "Magavau" merupakan upacara perayaan khas untuk menghormati "Bambazon" iaitu untuk menghormati semangat padi. Perayaan ini adalah amalan secara tradisi Kaum Kadazan-Dusun sejak zaman berzaman. Perayaan "Magavau" ini biasanya diadakan selepas selesai menuai padi. Pesta Kaamatan yang dirayakan dewasa ini telah diluluskan oleh Majlis Undangan Kerajaan Koloni sebagai cuti umum Sabah sejak tahun 1960 lagi, oleh Tun Haji Mohamad Fuad Stephens, Ketua Menteri Sabah yang pertama.



KOMENTAR :

Bagaikan melukut ditepi gantang merupakan perumpaman Melayu yang mengambarkan sesuatu yang tidak dihargai sangat.

Bahasa yang digandingkan untuk peribahasa ini menjelaskan maksud adalah.." keluar tidak mengurangi , masuk tidak memenuhi , atau sama ada tiada atau ada , tidak memberi makna atau kesan"
Dalam bahasa Sabah , ukay ukay saja bah , indada pun ndak apa jugak.




Melukut adalah serpihan beras pecah yang bertaburan. Gantang adalah penyukat untuk sukatan

 Ikthibar yang diperolehi dari perumpaman ini amat memadai bertindak sebagai catalyst mengubah corak perjuangan Pemimpin.


Ia mengharuskan pimpinan tertinggi sebuah parti politik , umpamanya  Parti Warisan Sabah memberi sepenuhnya tumpuan pada hal ehwal semasa ' more pressing issues ' yang melanda penduduk negeri Sabah secara langsung mahupun secara tidak lansung.

Antaranya , perbezaan kos barangan keperluan harian,akibat sistem polisi Cabotaj yang mengutamakan survival konsortium perkapalan milik kartel tertentu dan dalam masa yang sama langkah monopolistic sedimikian menguntungkan Pelabuhan di Semenanjung membelakangkan kepentingan Pelabuhan di Sabah dan Sarawak.
.










Kondisi jalanraya di keseluruhan Negeri yang jelas tidak mengambarkan kesimbangan dari segi pelaksanan walaupun kekayaan hasil bumi Negeri Sabah merupakan penyumbang utama kepada pembinaan lebuhraya di Malaya.
Political Will yang rapuh dikalangan pemimpin negeri adalah punca utama keadaan ini berlarutan sejak penubuhan Malaysia.

                                                                                                                                                          

 Ini merupakan perkara perkara asas yang menghantui rakyat namun penyelesian belum kunjung tiba.




Ketiadaan bekalan air paip ' treated water' dan bekalan elektrik di kawasan pedalaman Sabah perlu dititik beratkan mengatasi isu budaya atau sosial. Kemiskinan dikalangan orang asal yang masih berluasa mencerminkan sebuah Negara yang gagal.
Perlu ditekankan untuk sebuah negara demokratik diistiharkan berjaya adalah dengan meniliti cara bagaimana layanan terhadap etnik indigenous minoriti oleh pihak berkuasa.



   

Kemiskinan tegar kalangan orang asal pedalaman Sabah mengharungi kehidupan tanpa bekalan air paip, tanpa elektrik, tanpa amenity asas. 


Sehubungan ini , untuk mencabar kewibawan "Status Quo" sedia ada , penekanan secara confrontational  keatas keperluan mengubah struktur agihan nisbah royalti minyak beserta dengan kuasa otonomi Sabah dalam pembentukan Malaysia merupakan antara isu panas dekat di hati penduduk negeri yang bukan setakat mampu melonjatkan populariti sebuah parti politik tetapi mampu juga mengubah pattern pengundian secara overall pada pilihanraya akan datang.

Dalam pada itu , ketentuan meletak calon pada pilihanraya akan datang perlu penilitian rapi . Sebaiknya calon terdiri dari muka baru tidak tercemar atau memikul " bagasi " politik .
Matlamat ini perlu disebut secara terperinci dalam manifesto .

Disusuli matlamat untuk merealisasikan pembinaan loji loji penapis minyak mentah serta konsentrasi aktiviti 'down streaming' hasil kelapa sawit dan oil and gas berpusat di Sabah dan langkah proaktif seumpamanya.

                Loji Penapis Minyak Terengganu di Kerteh, Terengganu

Galian Minyak Mentah Di Sabah  Loji Penapis Minyak Di Semenanjung


Memancing undi ( fishing expedition ) terutama dari kaum KDM melalui cadangan pengistiharan cuti seluruh Malaysia sempena Perayaan Pesta Menuai merupakan cara remeh yg seharusnya tidak perlu di beri penekanan atau di highlight sebagai usul yg akan dijadikan sebahagian daripada agenda parti.

Menumpu pada aspek peningkatan sumber pendapatan dan kualiti kehidupan serta budaya kerja cemerlang adalah pemangkin yang akan mencetus keinginan penduduk negeri untuk beralih dari lubuk "comfort zone" .
Terlalu banyak cuti akan membawa impak yang sebaliknya.


Parti Warisan sekiranya ingin menjadikan angan angan menarujui pucuk pimpinan negeri menjadi kenyataan perlu dalam masa terdekat ini menonjolkan keupayan untuk mengungguli Parti Parti lawan dari sudut kemampuan membawa perubahan radikal dalam soal sosio- ekonomi rakyat Sabah dan yang lebih utama mengadaptasikan pendekatan agar hasil bumi Negeri diagihkan secara saksama kepada segenap pelusuk warga negeri melalui konsep welfare state iaitu What belongs to the State goes back to its people literally.

Berputar pada sentimen kenegerian seperti yang hangat digempar gemburkan pucuk pimpinan parti secara idealnya dilepaskan pada Persatuan Persatuan Kebudayan atau NGO menaganinya dan bukanlah intipati yang dijadikan hallmark didukung oleh sebuah Parti politik melainkan parti sedimikian telah ketandusan matlamat lantas kehilangan halatuju.

Rare footage of an unsuccessful attempt by North Korea to launch the North Star 2 medium range missile



North Korea launched the North Star 2 medium-range missile.
Operating at low-speed velocity the missile took to the sky only to crash moments later.
Full photography, the video is rare, hard to come by.

LIVE AND LET DIE , THE BEAUTY OF HUMAN RELATIONS

In 1923, nine of the wealthiest people in the world met at Chicago's Edge Water Beach Hotel.

Their combined wealth, it is estimated, exceeded the wealth of the Government of the United States at that time. These men certainly knew how to make a living and accumulate wealth. Attending the meeting were the following men:

1. The president of the largest steel company,

2. The president of the largest utility company,

3. The president of the largest gas company,

4. The president of the New York Stock Exchange,

5. The president of the Bank of International Settlements,

6. The greatest wheat speculator,

7. The greatest bear on Wall Street,

8. The head of the World's greatest monopoly &

9. A member of President Harding's cabinet.

That's a pretty impressive line-up of people by anyone's yardstick.

Yet, 25 years later, where were those nine industrial giants?

Let’s examine what happened to them 25 years later.
1. The President of the then largest steel company (Bethlehem Steel Corp), Charles M Schwab, lived on borrowed capital for five years before he died bankrupt.

2. The President of the then largest gas company, Howard Hubson, went insane.

3. One of the greatest commodity traders (Wheat Speculator), Arthur Cutten, died insolvent.

4. The then President of the New York Stock Exchange, Richard Whitney, was sent to jail.

5. The member of the US President’s Cabinet (the member of President Harding's cabinet), Albert Fall, was pardoned from jail just to be able to go home and die in peace.

6. The greatest “bear” on Wall Street, Jesse Livermore committed suicide.

7. The President of the then world’s greatest monopoly, Ivar Krueger, committed suicide.

8. The President of the Bank of International Settlement, Leon Fraser, committed Suicide.

9. The president of the largest utility company, Samuel Insull, died penniless.

What they forgot was how to "make" life while they got busy making money!

Money in itself is not evil; it provides food for the hungry, medicine for the sick, clothes for the needy. Money is only a medium of exchange.

We need two kinds of education:

a) One that teaches us how to make a living,

and

b) One that teaches us how to live.

There are many of us who are so engrossed in our professional life that we neglect our family, health and social responsibilities.

If asked why we do this, we would reply that "We are doing it for our family".

Yet, our kids are sleeping when we leave home. They are sleeping when we come back home!! Twenty years later, we’ll turn back, and they’ll all be gone, to pursue their own dreams and their own lives.

Without water, a ship cannot move. The ship needs water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will face existential problems. What was once a means of living for the ship will now become a means of destruction.

Similarly we live in a time where earning is a necessity but let not the earning enter our hearts, for what was once a means of living will surely become a means of destruction for us as well.

So take a moment and ask yourself, "Has the water entered my ship?"
I hope not!

Hope the above story will drive all of us in a better direction in life.
 
    ''Alone I can 'Say' but
    together we can 'talk'.

    'Alone I can 'Enjoy' but
     together we can
    'Celebrate'.
 
    'Alone I can 'Smile' but
    together we can 'Laugh'.

    That's the BEAUTY of
    Human Relations.

    We are nothing without
    each other
 
    Stay Connected!! Be inspired!! Make someone smile today, and have a great day.

It is not much about understanding the formation of Malaysia. It's more about respecting and honoring it.

It is not much about understanding the formation of Malaysia. It's more about respecting and honoring it.

Since day one prior to the formation of Malaysia, Malayan authorities and political counterparts never in the true essence of the word respected neither Sabah nor Sarawak as equal partners
.
They - Malayans , were up till this present day disillusioned by a superiority mental psyche towards their eastern counterparts in the "wild east" , a termed fondly used by the Malayan controlled central government to describe more than anything else the backwardness of the two Borneo States..

A Colonial masters legacy so damming an inheritance  embedded deeply in their  mental fraternity - a superiority complex which has been a stumbling block detrimental to both Sabah and Sarawak at fostering good relations with their partner across the South China Sea.

Governed by their superiority mindset , Sabah and Sarawak have remained at the loosing end , look down upon, shunned and reduced to being second class citizens.

The central establishment  without an iota of guilt has gone to the extent of shoveling aside a legit agreement that both Borneo provinces are equal partners in the formation of the country thus reducing the two independent provinces to mere states , a precursor to numerous other disrespectful initiatives undertaken against the people of these two entities.

Undermining stipulated rights of Sabah/Sarawak are political master plans perfected  down the years by the powers that be to continue having a strangle hold on the populace.

Demographics have been altered for political expediency. Jobs in both states are scarce due to the monopolistic pursuance of the central government,  Native and state lands taken up by huge Peninsular  base public listed companies leaving the natives  of the land with nothing but small plots to toil for a livelihood  hardly enabling to make ends meet.

More significantly, and to add salt to wound , Sabah and Sarawak have always been contributors not consumers of the country's coffers.
Why are we made to haggle when the bulk of natural resource are ours to begin with?

This is our 54th year as Malaysians yet the exploits of our beloved state has not hindered - lopsided policies prevailed to this very instant.

In areas where they failed to impose their policies either by coercion or  sinister plots ,  arm twisting tactics are applied  and the all important  aspect of our well-being which is security  as a bargaining chip.

All these  "short change"  ,"one-sided affair" and "unfair policies"  ,  boils down to one vivid manifestation  which is ,  since the birth of Malaysia ,  Sabah's prerogatives were handled by a lesser than formidable  leadership.
Sarawak has fared much better in this field.

The State yearns for a principled , determined , and a leadership with sheer guts to chart it's course.


Previous leaders notably the late Tun Mustapha was too ill educated to put up a sound diplomatic argument. Tun Sakaran in turn was a clear stooge.

Harris Salleh was over zealous to achieve his personal golds forgetting the very people who put him in power  were over the passage of time revolting against his stance on issues affecting the state. Needless to point out his role in the 85' saga and the skirmishes that followed.  

The Kitingan brothers on the other hand were pseudo statesmen , early at their tenure appeared all fired up only to self decimate. .
.
Our best bet were with those who perished in the double six tragedy  unfortunately their reign were cruelly halted prematurely.

The major factor why Sabah was enticed to be part of Malaysia is base on the MA63s solemn assurance of the State's status as an autonomous region within Malaysia..

Due emphasis  by our own representatives on the distortion of Malaysia Agreement 63 was never a prerogative that saw the light of day in the August House.

Decades later it takes an ethical Malayan Parliamentarian to voice out as visualize in the clip below Sabahs plight in a Dewan Rakyat sitting further echoing  the lackluster cum inferior attitude of our own people's representative.

The best case scenario for Sabah at present is to usher in a new breed of politicians unblemished  and without baggage to continue the aspirations pursued by victims of the double six tragedy.

Battle hardened Philippine military soldiers are our best bet to eliminate the notorious Abu Sayyaff bandits

Battle hardened Philippine military soldiers are our best bet to eliminate the notorious Abu Sayaff bandits.



All it takes is a determined commandant in Chief to relentlessly direct offensive resources to this aim.



Human rights or not , as demonstrated in Duterte's undeterred rage at hardcore criminals dubbed as a " killing spree " of drug warlords and other vice elements have in many ways served its purpose if not in totality .
Preemptive strikes of this sought has instilled fear right into the heart of the organization.

Not to undermine the capability of our own military, Imagined if those with vested powers had at the time the political will and the balls to preempt the Tanduo insurgency. The casualty on our side would have been much less.

Joceline Tan's take on Musa Aman and the impending State Elections.


Joceline Tan is a Mercenary journalist..

She has that sheepishness of endeavor in coexistence with a spectacular writing flare coupled with an apt of imposing an adequate percentage of spin to boost the accolades of a deadwood personality or an evil character the likes of Hitler and portray him as a saint. All for an handsome amount of fees.

Citizens of Sabah have no qualms personally with the present Chief Minister nor his services rendered to the state through out his tenure as the Chief Executive Officer. 14 years to date.

Joceline is right to point out that Musa has been wealthy long before his involvement in politics. This fact sets him apart from many opportunists clowns masquerading as politicians who are in it(politics) for monetary gain. The emphasis on his  kin's  as Joceline puts it , living a moderate existence is however uncalled for. Pretending to live modestly and  by contrast genuinely living a modest life are subject matters that differs.

Perhaps many would agree , voters are ready to give Musa another five year term to run the state only if he is not in cohorts with UMNO. This is the ultimate setback hoovering over Musa's head and that of his future as CM.

Sabah and Sarawak are twice the size of Malaya as Jocelyne points out clearly, nonetheless what she presumably fails to mention is the amount of revenue extracted each day from these two Borneo entities solely for the benefit of Malaya while Sabah and Sarawak abudantly blessed with natural resources receive peanuts in return hence the mocking remarked ' two of the poorest states'

Taking into account previous political establishments , UMNO has reached the pinnacle of its might with much fanfare but little to shout about as far as real economical , infrastructure and development progress particularly for Sabah. Besides, its the norm for the state to  try out new Leadership and Political affiliates at the end of the five year mandatory allocation given a twist of good faith stretching to the
extent for the incumbent remaining in office for a spell of two or three terms the most.
Chief Executive Officers of previous administrations had a first hand experienced of this phenomena ,their so called 'Waterloo' before their third term was up. Musa must be thanking his lucky stars for not having to go through similar predicament.
Will there be a fourth term for him is now the golden question?

Hot issues on the streets that of project ic, autonomous rights under Malaysia Agreement 63, Crude Oil royalty,massive misused of tax payers and revenue money lend credence to the potential demise of the present status quo.

Moreover , with the advent of information technology thanks to the internet the present generation are no more as naive as generations of yesteryears

Almost everything falls under their radar no matter how secretive the government chooses to be. A new trend that has emerged which is hazardous to any dubious regime A  trend that ultimately sets an untrustworthy leadership  in dire straits.

"Bolehkah Dyana memberi reaksi jujur?" Apa kata Danil Daud

 Saya orang asli Wilayah Sabah iaitu sebuah wilayah independent yang menjadi salah satu Wilayah teras di antara empat Wilayah  dalam pembentukan sebuah negara daulat yang kita kenali sebagai negara Malaysia...

 Perlembagaan Persekutuan atau lebih tepat dirujuk sebagai " Perlembagaan Wilayah Malaya 1957 "  dan/atau  artikel 153 serta klausa klausa  yang terkandung didalamnya dan pindaan  seperti " hak istimewa indigenous Sabahan/Sarawakian yang  disogok pakai muat hanya selepas pembentukan Malaysia enam tahun kemudian  pada 1963...

 Persoalaan utama yang sepatutnya diutarakan  lebih setengah abad yang lalu... , Siapakah pemimpin / badan menerajui  pembikinan  draf dan pemeterai perundangan Perlembagaan Persekutuan 1957 yang meliputii yakni tongak perundangan keseluruhan wilayah Malaysia hari ini? Adakah wakil pemimpin Sabah/Sarawak terlibat sama?

 Jawaban pada soalan kedua adalah tentunya tidak kerana Sabah/Sarawak belum menyertai apa-apa perundingan pada masa Perlembagaan itu digubal dan Negara Malaysia belum wujud. Dalam hal demikian , apa yang dikenali sebagai Perlembagaan Persekutuan adalah tidak releven dan tidak significant pada penduduk  wilayah Sabah/Sarawak dan seharusnya di declare null & void setelah terbentuknya negara baru , Malaysia.

 Datuk Salleh Said , a prominent Sabahan and ex Chief Minister of the state  in his capacity as a state leader should set the records straight. Hence , denounce the significance of article 153 of the so called Federal Constitution and whatever relevance it has on the lives of both the people of Sabah/Sarawak. Going into confrontation with a Malayan politician over the matter doesn't denote the leadership quality of a genuine Bajau warrior such as the legendary Paduka Mat Salleh.
 What he should  rightly be doing ,  is to do a Ghapur Salleh on the Federal authorities by telling the Deputy Minister of home Affairs to go fly kites for the nincompoops irrational suggestion of wanting local Sabah tourist attractions to close shop as a resolute " hard thinking " government way to  prevent further abductions by the lawless AbuSayyaff bandits instead of compelling enforcement agencies to buck-up or pull out.


 Kembali kepada hudud ,The hudud and its decree. I will not dwell on race , simply because i conclude , to mention anyone's  race in Malaysia is malicious and filled with ill intent. Sabah/Sarawak known to live in harmony since time in memorial have had it , the racial bigotry spilling over the other side of the Peninsular fence.

 Notwithstanding religious or racist bigotry, The hotly debated hudud and the staunch penalties that follows.
 

On this particular subject i will stray away from the honorable late Karpal Singh...This is not solely about religious believes  per-Se and far from " the best of two worlds " normally associated with the Hypocrite Malay Malayan who wants to be seen and praised as pious but let out of the den , will be scavenging for cheap sex be it amongst their sub-ordinates or low down prostitutes.

These weasels , mainly Government or GLC employees away from Malaya where they pretend to be holier than thou show artists experiencing for the first time the moment they set foot in the east the free spirited ways of Sabah/Sarawak evolved to their true colours. There are so many witnesses to profess to this behavior and many more caught on candid camera performing the act , to prove a point. One of these low down skunk was the previous Sabah state POS Area Manager circa 1995 to 2002 who not only set a bad example and left a bad mark on Sabahans but also set a trend of having   free sex amongst his subordinates.

Hudud and its harsh laws should be seen as a deterrent rather than a punishment... and should be considered on grounds transgressing  the fundamental notion of  human liberty.. Besides human liberty is to do good not bad... The decrees found in hudud are not hostile to other faiths as most are inscribed in the holy bible as well as the torah. His Excellency The Sultan of Brunei , an absolute Monarch with all his might realized that he too is not above Gods law _ Danil Daud




Bolehkah Dyana memberi reaksi jujur?

Adalah tidak jujur untuk meminta sokongan pengundi tetapi enggan menyatakan pendirian sebenar mengenai isu-isu yang sensitif seperti Perkara 153, UiTM dan hudud.
COMMENT
Dyana SofyaOleh Salleh Said Keruak
Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) perlu kekal sebagai satu-satunya institusi Melayu, kata Pro Canselor Tan Sri Dr Abdul Rahman Arshad.
Tan Sri Dr Rahman mengulas gesaan calon DAP dalam pilihan raya kecil parlimen Teluk Intan Dyana Sofya Mohd Daud agar peluang samarata diberikan kepada semua untuk memasuki institusi pengajian tinggi awam di negara ini.


Justeru itu, Tan Sri Dr Rahman berhujah bahawa UiTM ditubuhkan berdasarkan peruntukan Perkara 153 Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia dan seterusnya menekankan bahawa hak atau keistimewaan Bumiputera tidak harus dipersoalkan.
Jelas sekali, ini merupakan taktik DAP untuk meraih sokongan pengundi Cina yang kini berada di persimpangan jalan sama ada menyokong DAP atau Barisan Nasional (BN) pada pilihan raya kecil itu.


Bagaimanapun, strategi kempen yang menyentuh isu sensitif bakal mengundang risiko kerana kemungkinan ia akan merubah senario kepada persaingan Melayu lawan Cina atau bukan Melayu.
Sebelum ini, Dyana Sofya telah membuat kenyataan mengenai hudud — Undang-Undang Syariah Islam. Dalam kenyataan itu, Dyana Sofya menunjukkan dia menentang hudud kerana itulah pendirian parti yang diwakilinya.


Hari ini Dyana Sofya enggan mengulas mengenai perkara itu mungkin kerana menyedari komennya sebelum ini tidak memberi impak yang diharapkan.
Pilihan raya atau pilihan raya kecil merupakan platform dan peluang untuk calon-calon untuk menerangkan dasar dan ideologi parti mereka kepada pengundi.


Disinilah mereka memperjelaskan kepada pengundi tentang pendirian parti.
Mereka tidak sepatutnya memberitahu kepada pengundi “tidak mahu memberi komen” apabila ditanya tentang sesuatu perkara kerana ia bermakna mereka tidak bersifat terbuka dan menyembunyikan sesuatu perkara dari pengetahuan pengundi.


Jika DAP tidak bersetuju dengan peruntukan Perkara 153 dan UiTM sebagai sebuah institusi Melayu, dan menentang usaha PAS menggunapakai undang-undang Islam, maka ini perlu dinyatakan dengan jelas supaya pengundi akan tahu pendirian parti yang mereka undi.
Adalah tidak jujur bagi parti untuk meminta sokongan daripada pengundi tetapi enggan menyatakan pendirian sebenar mengenai isu-isu yang sensitif seperti Perkara 153, UiTM dan hudud.

I call it PEACE among enemies! Good example for humans.

I call it  PEACE among enemies!   Good example for humans.

For your enjoyment:
This is a video of a homeless man in Santa Barbara and his pets. They work State Street every week for donations.  The animals are pretty well fed and are mellow. They are a family. The man who owns them rigged a harness up for his cat so she wouldn't have to walk so much (like the dog and himself).   At some juncture the rat came along, and as no one wanted to eat anyone else, the rat started riding with the cat and, often, on the cat! 
The dog, will stand all day and let you talk to him and admire him for a few chin scratches. The Mayor of Santa Barbara filmed this clip and sent it out as a holiday card.
