THE INVASION OF MALAYSIA


What do people think of Malaysia?


If you are a foreigner and looking to go for a holiday, if you are an investor and wanting to start a business or if you are a senior citizen and looking for a retirement home, would Malaysia be in your list of choices. If the same question were thrown at us, which country will be in our lists, it's easier to choose which country that will not make our lists because you don't have to crack your head. Countries like Thailand, Iraq, Burma, Laos, Congo, Uganda, Afghanistan, etc. What are the similarities between these countries, they all are in political turmoil and basically referred as unstable. A few month ago, one of Malaysians favourite country was making headlines about foreign students being beaten and stabbed. I think there were 2 fatalities and a couple of injuries but the news had momentarily halt everyone from traveling to the country.This is a very small incident compared to the devastation that takes place elsewhere but people are paranoid and they are not going to travel until they feel it's safe again. If tourism is the main attraction of that country, can we imagine the loss. (My sister in law lives there and she is going to be very unhappy with my example)

What is our current situation?

Let's look at Malaysia, for the last 10 years we are in a political turmoil and it's all about one person, his ambition, his quest, his vision, his aspiration, his justice, his abuse, his black eye, his medical condition's, his sexual preferences, his foreign connections,etc, etc, etc. Well, it's either he is equal to 28 million people or our fear and misdeed's made him the unsung hero for the people. Whichever way you put it, they have screwed the country in the name of "Reformasi". The foreign media has a soft spot for DSAI and always in-favour of him by exaggerating the situation and propagate our country as troubled, corrupted, injustice, violence's, brutal and marginalisation. Mr. Al Gore was a perfect example, on November 16th 1998 at the APEC Forum in Kuala Lumpur he said this, “Democracy can give the stamp of legitimacy that reforms must have in order to be effective, and so, among nations who suffer economic crises, we continue to hear calls for democracy, calls for reform, in many languages. People power. (Reformasi). We hear them today, right here, right now, among the brave people of Malaysia". Well, he is pleading to all Malaysian to revolt against the government and proclaims that those on the streets are the brave people of Malaysia. Well Mr. Gore, most of the guys on the streets are not Malaysian, but illegal Indonesian and for you to loose the Presidency to Bush, sums up your intelligence.I was overseas and watching their local news and there's a news about a big demonstration that took place in Kuala Lumpur. Based on the news, all hell broke loose, many were injured, innocent people were sprayed with chemical water and about 200 people arrested. Immediately I called my friend in Kuala Lumpur to verify the news. He told me, it's the usual stuff, about 100 people carrying placards and shouting for Reformasi and they quietly dispersed after 2 hours. I hung up the phone and waited for the next news segment and there it was, the technology of editing. They have taken the footage from the BERSIH and HINDRAFF rally month's ago and edited it with the latest footage to make it look as though it's current news. The media suppose to report the news as it is, they are not to speculate or make their conclusion but i suppose Malaysia is exceptional. Why the media is doing this, who is asking the media to do this, and who will benefit out of this?.


Who is more important, a single person or a government?



The who and why is an ambiguous question, everyone has an opinion on who or which country supports this dirty tactic's but the fact remains that "Malaysia is in trouble, people are not happy with the corrupted government and they are venting out their anger on the streets asking for a change. We don't have to crack our head to figure that out, the foreign media will narrate it beautifully and will conclude their own interpretation of what is happening and what need to be done next. The man of the hour was former deputy prime minister and 2008 Time Magazines "100 most influential people in the world", Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who was sacked from the cabinet and thrown into jail for asking the government too many questions. He seems to be the only hope for a country of 28 million people. Is that true? Is he that powerful or we were weak than.
We always had oppositions and i personally believe that we should have a reliable opposition or a shadow government to keep the present government on toes and efficient.The only big opposition we faced since Independence were PAS & DAP and they were not much of a threat but the emergence of PKR paved the way for a stronger opposition's and greater threat to BN's authority. We lost our 2/3 majority in the last GE and that is the wake up call for everyone, now they are doing their best to fulfill their promises to the people. They are well aware that BN is not invincible anymore and they need to have a clean, credible, transparent and talented people to govern, in-order to convince voters. The sudden change in principle's and core value's among the opposition party are the very reason why they will destroy themselves in the future. A party like PAS should not compromise their principles just for a victory, i was shocked when Datuk Nik Aziz came to Hulu Selangor to campaign for Datuk Zahid when the latter was bombarded about his past drinking habits. They just brought him to assure the voters that the candidate accepted his mistake's in the past and he is a changed man. Well, they thought if these words were coming out of Tok Guru's mouth, Datuk Zahid's drinking legacy will be washed clean but the voters thought otherwise.

There was a time when PAS were the voice of Islam and DAP was the voice for the under privilege but with the sudden rise of PKR, they realise that this is the only chance to take over the government. They collaborated as a unit and Pakatan Rakyat was born. Anyone with half a brain can see that the pact had nothing to do with their core struggle or principle, it's all about Power & Glory. The next GE will be the the furthest distance PR will ever go, if they fail, then that is the end of PKR but PAS & DAP will still be around waiting for another opportunity or another hero to come along and bring them some additional seats in Parliament.

Let's be realistic, the present PM is not a push-over, he's tough, smart, versatile and very experienced man, it's not going to be easy for the opposition from now onwards. If DSAI is the saviour for the opposition, then PM Najib is the saviour for the BN. The fact is, PM is not passing his responsibility to other's, he is taking charge of everything and he is in full command. "Bring it on, is that all what you got", that is the sentence that is echoing in my head and i believe the PM is well prepared for this.


Are we ready for an Invasion?


The Americans invaded Iraq, even after UN rejected their intention for a holy purpose, that is to bring "PEACE" to Iraq and Middle-East. They went in and destroyed everything, killed thousands, wiped out the economy, brought the people to their knees, bombed every facility/communications and after killing the sons they successfully hanged the President. Then they introduce democratic election and let the Iraqis choose their next President.The American soldier's are slowly being shipped out and soon the Iraqis will have the country for themselves. The Americans had finally restored "PEACE" into Iraq and people are rejoicing on the streets in celebration and the Americans are still looking for the Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD). Please go to the Internet and see the devastation of the country, they will need another 30 years to get back on track, who is suffering now? The people, they are the victims and the helpless ones.

The Americans spend about 1.5 trillion for the war (not accurate) , they decide to act on their own because they are the Peacemakers of the world. Did they do it for free in the name of Love & Peace, well we need to see how many ship's departing the Iraqis port laden with crude oil and for how many decades. I'm just speculating, because Iraq has the 2nd largest oil reserve and you don't need to be an Einstein to figure that out.

All the spent bullets, missiles, rockets and bombs are products from the USA and these companies are giant's and probably our country's yearly budget is their yearly investment for R&D. Well, you cannot wind down these companies, they are the one that creates latest weapons and defense technology, if you still want to be known as a superpower then they need to spent a lot of money to keep this companies afloat.

If there is a war, once every 3-4 years, it will be good enough to generate income for these companies to sustain for another couple of years. In simple words, to maintain the superpower status and be better than any other country, their R&D on weapon technology, aircraft, submarines, ships, satellites, radar etc must be ongoing, they cannot shut down anything and to maintain all these R&D facilities, billions are needed. Well, what is the point of creating a new bomb without exploding it. How do you market your latest weapon, blasting on an isolated island or deserts are the old methods, the defence ministers all over the world want to see it in real-time so we need to start a war. We test all our equipments and have a recording and the readings as a mean to convince countries to place an order. These manufacturers, not only selling their products to the US Army but also advertising to the whole world about their new weapon. Whatever that had been spent for the war including additional charges will be sucked up in the form of Crude Oil for another 20 years or so. Did America loose anything in the war, they gain ten fold and every 3-4 years we will have a display of new weapons and fire-power and hopefully the next chosen country is not ours. I am sure everyone from everywhere around the world can make a simple conclusion like what i did but why are we keeping quiet, because we are not united. If 50 countries join together and say, enough, I'm sure we can evade wars and all these companies close down permanently. Earth will once again be in peace.!!!!!


What Iraq have in common with Malaysia?


Well, there we see gunfights, bombs and mutilated bodies and in Malaysia, we are very fine. Apart from monthly street demonstration, handing over memorandum and flowers,the continuous negative coverage by the foreign media worked well for the opposition's. Iraq was a straight forward fight but we don't even realise that we are at war, our water and food are being poisoned slowly (figure of speech). The irresponsible power driven leader's and the lying foreign media are slowly crippling our economy. We have lost billions from the foreign direct investment (FDI), tourism Industries, Manufacturing Industries etc, etc. The country is suffering and the opposition is pressing it down further. They knew, if they want to take over, Malaysia had to fail economically and declared bankrupt.

Their tactic of Economic Suffocation, to weaken the country economically and then tell the people that the present government failed to deliver is a smart move but an irresponsible one.


What PR going to do when they crippled the country and take over the Government?


I am sure the De-Facto Leader has his plans, his connection with the western world, world bank and Hedge Funds are very cordial and there will be an immediate fund injection to boost the economy. The transformation with the new government will be called Investment and basically more power but for us it is an INVASION. Aren't we done with that, we been ruled by Portuguese, Dutch and British for 446 years, they have exhumed everything that is valuable and left us with nothing but Independence. What are the PR government going to do in returning the favour.

I think they will have a ready solution, Penang could be the US Naval Base, A few of our oil blocks could be given to the highest bidder, Petronas could merge with Exxon Mobil, Singapore can buy outright of the Iskandar Development Region, Sell East Malaysia to Brunei, Philippines or Indonesia of even the Brook's Family might be interested. I am not simply writing for fun or speculating something out of nothing.

Don't you think that the opposition knows exactly what they are doing, how the economy is affected and how bad the real situation were. They also must have a contingency plan to revive the country with huge amount of money promised outside.

Why the Peacemaker's never invaded Somalia, Congo, Uganda, Thailand or Yugoslavia when there was war and heavy casualty. Well, when you decide to Invade, a question of who is going to finance or how are we going to recover our money is the key issue. The country listed above has nothing that interest them. Iraq was special, the world's oil reserve is depleting and Iraq owns the 2nd biggest oil reserves in the world.

OK, so Iraq has oil and there's a logic behind the Invasion but why Malaysia, what we have that interest them so much. Definitely not DSAI, they only interested in thing's that has value, so my guess is as good as yours. We will know, eventually.

The Present Government?


When we watch a football match at the stadium, it's always nice to sit at a higher place so to have a birds-eye view of the entire field and players. When we watch the game, we can see the mistakes, wrong passing, crosses and goals. We can actually see where the mistakes were and how the goal was scored and who is the culprit etc. Well, take the same critic and throw him on the field, we can see his flaws and errors.

The moral of the story is: When you are the opposition and never once govern the country, you can give so many stories and promises because you have no idea how the financial and budget of each and individual department or organisation operates.You can promise anything because if you loose, you have nothing to loose anyway but if you happen to win accidentally, who cares what you promise the people.
The present government couldn't afford to do that, because they are the ruling government and probably will rule again. They have to be right in their pledge's and promises because they cannot escape. Therefore, they will give a much responsible answer and promises during elections.

Why the government need to be funny?

The debate between DSAI & Datuk Sabri Chik, was the icing on the cake. I really don't understand why it took place and for what reason. DSAI just came out of jail and looking for a platform to address the nation and BN government at that time were so supportive of him or they really thought Datuk Sabri could upstage the Master and humiliate him in front of the entire nation.

There's no one at present who is even rated equal to DSAI in oratory skills, that is a fact and when watching the panel of analysis trying to determine who won the debate was even funnier. Do you think that DSAI care about the outcome of the results, He already celebrated his victory on the day the government agreed to a debate. It's simply shows the government's fear towards him and finding way's to pacify him.

He was not interested in the questions and answers but his focus were on the rakyat. With his skinny figure, skinny cheekbone and humble voice he captured the entire nation's audience with his sad and pleading voice, "Can't the government take out RM1 Billion from its coffer and use it to ease the burden of the rakyat's from the petrol/diesel hike". He said it about 3 times and won everyone sympathy. Maybe the government had a brilliant tactic in doing so, please let me know because if i don't get an answer, i will not rest in peace.

The present government is showing improvement and hopefully in the near future they will be a good and balanced government. There are many flaws in the system that we can argue till "the cows come home" but they are performing and the entire nation seems like evaluating their performances. I remember an elderly man back in Mersing who used to boast, even if we put a songkok as a BN candidate, the opponents will lose their deposits. It might be fitting at that time but GE2008 showed otherwise. That quote fitted the opposition's candidate in GE2008, various type of character's won and sitting in the Parliament now. As a rakyat, we thank the opposition for making the government more efficient and as a citizen of this country, we also like the opposition to find an alternate method to oppose the government and convince the voters, their present tactic of "destroy and then build" will not go down well with the rakyat when they realize it. So please Be aware?

Thank You.
