Creativity a more serious crime than burning National Flags!!!

Heard from last night's news that UMNO Youth Chief has brought back the issue of Ooi's modification of national anthem. This issue has been a closed case and that all parties involved already made clear and that an agreement and understanding has been reached long time ago. Why is he suddenly bring back this issue again? Is there any motive behind this? Or is he trying to gain some public voters' votes thru' this cheap, low class and stupid tactics?

What Ooi did was modifying the national anthem, and I think what he did was far less serious than demonstrators in Terengganu by burning Malaysia's flags publicly. This shows no respect to the country and are a great insult to a nation by burning the national flags. But why wasn't this case be continue to further pursuit? Is it because people who burnt the flags are Bumis? Does bumis have special rights to insult the country without facing criminal charges? What so great about bumis that they should have special treatment than non-bumis? Oh probably that's what they need to survive in today's life.

As for what Ooi did is deem not correct, but I think that's not as serious as those burning flags, just that because Ooi is a non-bumi, that had caused him into all sort of problem with authority. So long you are not bumis, please becareful of what you did or you will end up like Ooi. For bumis, you can do whatever you think is right and your bumi authority will have a special protection law for you guys.
