End of Zakaria Era

Is it the end of Datuk Zakaria's era in Port Klang? Is his death suppose to stop all the speculations surrounding him? Can his death stop all the unresolve cases?

Probably it will be much easier for Z to leave now than later because I think he will have a lot to answer when the new government is formed. He will have to get ready to report to either state office or police station on a regular basis to answer all the doubts that hanging around and whatever involve him personally.

Now that he's long gone, there will be a lot of question marks over those unanswered question. Is it only he himself that involve all these or there are bunch of people behind it as well? Upon his death, there are so many speculations that his death cause is by heart attack, committed suicide, poisoned, etc many more. Whatever it is, we will never know the truth since post mortem result stated he died of heart attack and is now already been buried in his hometown cemetary.

Will all these cases being continuously investigate is waiting to be seen, but surely there are many puzzle needed an answers because too many and too often a doubious transaction and deal have been passed through. So hopefully new government will expose all these shameful transactions and deals to public to show how badly this state has been manage over the last 4 years plus.

Salute Dr Koh

I really salute Dr Koh Tsu Koon for the way he handed over the Penang CM post to the incoming CM, Lim Guan Eng.

Although he is sadden by the lost of Penang state as well as his own election campaign, he still put up a brave and gentleman like face to wish Lim all the best and attending his ceremony. He even invited Lim to his office for taking over the remaining jobs or unfinished work hoping that DAP will carry on developing Penang as like before, which I believe will be the case.

As compare to some other losing candidates, all they knew were to criticised their very own leaders, blaming others of not supporting them, blaming of the Anti-BN screams etc. What they do not do is to investigate themselve why has all the votes gone to opposition? Why aren't the people believe them no more? Where has they done not enough to convince public to vote for them etc.

These bunch of people will only heading one way, which is the end of the road for them. Politic is a realistic modern game, and if you are capable of turning the scene around by your own ability, there's always a chance, but if you only blaming every other thing but yourself, there is no hope for them in whatever they do.

Hope this election will serve as a wake up call for all failed BN candidates as well as the elected candidates that public's vice must be taken seriously!

Hiding Mohd Khir Toyo

After few days of hiding for former Selangor MB, Mohd Khir Toyo, he finally appear. Where? It's at the famour Datuk Z's funeral.

Why has he been hiding since Selangor loses its power to opposition? Why he cancelled few conferences yet appearing in one of his best mate's funeral? One wonder if he's hiding something from the public and new opposition led government.

I'm quite sure he is because eversince they know they lost its control power of Selangor Government, there are few people went into the state government office to 'destroyed' some very important documents. Papers were shredded to pieces, and files were thrown here and there.

It's a sign of something bad happening inside and someone obviously trying to take away things that not suppose to be seen by others. So this documents must be real important to someone, and that he's afraid to face the public should he being question. So he chosen to hide. When the all important witness, or pal leaves, he felt safe and he attended to the best mate's funeral.

So I really hope the new government will take some time trying to trace back what's going on actually within Selangor government, and back tracking whoever of wrongdoing to be responsible for, be it MB, assembly man or just ordinary man. Things has to be controlled and that culprits must be fully destroyed.

Another Disappointed Outings at All England

True to my prediction that Malaysian players will not perform to their true ability in the concluded All England Championship. What's more disappointing is that all our so call top class players, sounded confident prior to the begining of tournament, they mostly crashed out during the early stages.

I wonder what happen to our shuttlers? Maybe they were distracted by the General Election. Maybe they are overly confident and underestimating their opponent. But I from now on will not put in any more hope on our shuttlers to win anything big, and also in the coming Olympic Games.

Shame on you Malaysian Badminton! Oust the president, Oust the sports minister.....

Sportsman at Election Campaign

Yesterday read some newspaper and found out that Lee Chong Wei was at one of the BN candidate's campaign for election. Haven't these sportman learnt from lesson? Are they being used by the candidates to attract more votes?

Last year when Koo Kien Kiat - Tan Boon Heong won the All England and Swiss Open, they were the nation's hero and immediately they were flourist with all kinds of interviews and activities, including the campaign for one of the Johor By-election. Then what happen? Their performance dropped sharply and it took them months before regain that little bit of confidence, which was then easily shattered.

Now it's Chong Wei's turn. I think probably he's been advise by his beloved coach, Misbun Sidek or Youth and Sports Minister, Azalina to stands for the election campaign activity so more people will be attracted to their speech. What these dumbs doesn't know is that this will eventually affecting their performance in not only All England and other up coming events, but eventually will affect their performance badly in the more important Thomas Cup and Olympic.

Let's not forget that they are only sportsmen, who is trying their best, putting all their heart out to try to make Malaysia proud by doing what they did best. Let's not diverting their attention into something irrelevant or else by June and August come, we will start scratching our head and tail trying to find out why our sportsmen always perform badly when it really matters.

Watch out all you sportsmen outthere! Beware of the unnoticed danger of distraction!

Two Days To Go

2 more days and we are facing the biggest test for the last 50 years since independence. Can we change it? Will it stay the same? What will happen whoever wins the 12th GE? Cabinets in Pakistan, Australia, Thailand and France have changed, US is going to change too if everything is according to survey result. Why shouldn't this happen here?

Since Abdullah Badawi steps up, there is a significant change in our cabinets, government setup, and things happened around. Whether it's for good is up to your own discretion. For me it's definitely the other way.

Why don't we give our self a chance to help giving others who really wanted to serve the community the chance to show what they are capable of doing. BN has been saying opposition always talk with no action. But have they really think why no action being taken? It's because they are not in the position to take any action.

At least they are fighting for the community for their rights, as well as serving them trying to develop, but majority of the time they were reduced down to ashes because whatever the suggestion or action intended, all will be thrown out by the person in seats, and that's what they call saying but no action.

I think this at least is better than those who sits in the position just to enter office early in the morning to catch up sleep because of late night work almost everyday. We don't need these kind of representative, we need someone who will work for the community. Sitting there criticising opposition yet doing nothing is much worst than saying, wanting to act but no way through!

Wise up folks. Vote for the ones that act more than "hard working" person

Cheats

Read newspaper this morning and noticed one of the top leader from MCA urging Malaysian do not vote for cheats. I think this statement is very very true and public should not vote for cheats.

For whom the cheats he referred to may be different from what we (majority of us I suppose) refer to. I think we should be matured enough and wise enough to see who the cheats really are. We have been given them so much time to prove their worthiness, given them opportunity to help us for the last 4 years, let alone the last 50 years, but what do we get?

After the most one-sided 11th election, we all are convinced the new cabinet will bring more bright future to the public, and we will get the opportunity we may not enjoy before. What happen after? All we got is all sort of problems, corruptions, unfair treatments, and many more cases which is not convenient to mentioned here.

With no disrespect, I felt a lot of our thoughts and voices were heard, and swallow down the throat by the party and not heard anywhere else in the cabinet, which probably is forbidden to do so since 2003 and anyone disobey will end up like Datuk Seri C*** KC and C*** SL. That's the price you pay for not following the instruction. So can we really trust MCA anymore?

As most voters are at least an inch wiser now, we should really see who the cheats are in this case and truely I hope public will vote for someone who can work for public, help the public, and bring forward together the society, and most importantly listen to public constantly, not once every 4 years.

Penang CM

What on earth made BN think they will win the Penang state for sure? Why do they pre-fix the new CM candidates? Is this a sign of internal conflict within BN? I certainly hope this is the internal conflict within BN for this state, as this will expose the weakness of BN as well as giving opposition party the chance to manage the state.

When rumours started that there are two possible replacement for Dr Khor Tsu Khoon that would be taking over as Penang CM, out of no where it was said Teng Chang Yaw is already Prefixed as the next Penang CM. This has created unrest problem within the party itself before election, and if this is truthful, probably the two previous mentioned possible replacement will fight for their life against person from same party, and they will then ignoring the opposition.

Whatever is happening within we will never know, but what I want to say here is that BN is not a trustworthy party and I certainly hope this election will teach them a lesson, and hit them hard for once.

Freedom of Media?

12th General Election is just around the corner. Over the past week I'd read a lot on what's been said and written. One major thing I noticed is that all newspaper has never publish the campaigns launch by opposition parties.

What's been written and published were all the personal attacks, unsporting and ungentlement like of speech given by the so-call BN candidates. I just couldn't imagine if these people were to be elected to lead our government. They all acted like child-play through the campaigns, starting all kind of unrelevant personal attacking, even the educational minister, DPM, PM and other high ranked ministers.

In other view, opposition launch attacks on BN candidates based on their inability to fulfil their promises made, and proves were even shown on some case, and they now act more like a matured and responsible candidates. Unlike previous elections, these oposition candidates do make survey and studies prior to their speeches.

But all these were never ver going to be shown to the public because it's a case of showing the incapability of the dissolved government to lead our country moving forward, and also trying to implemented an image that oppositions are doing nothing, where BN were everywhere.

I think most voters now are generally smarter and more educated comparing to previous. So hopefully we will have a fair and square straight fight between BN and oppositions, at the same time giving media to publish the truth of everything, not just siding one party and ignoring the others

Shameful BN Candidates

Since the nomination date, campaigns was launched everywhere, be it BN, DAP, Keadilan or PAS. Much has been talked and written about. So what have we seen there?

For personal view, I notice one major thing during these campaigns, BN candidates all uses one common tactic, which is personal attacking. From small minor candidates all the way up to BN leader, Abdullah Badawi.

I felt ashame of having such person being our PM for the last 4 years or so because he seems that apart from personal attack, he has nothing good at to show to public why he should stay on for another term as PM. He still has not learn his lesson. He still giving out empty promises which is impossible to materialise, he still give out empty hope to public that they would develop this and that.

All these are bullsh*t from this stoned-faced "outgoing" PM (hopefully). From the Port Klang Freetrade Zone we could see that after RM 46 Bil spent and what we got is just a long tall grasses. Then where's IDR? What about East Coast Economic Corridor? When will be the turn of our Northern Corridor? Lately he announced there would be 2 more big development project in East Corridor, which is Sabah and then the RM 134 bil Sarawak Development. May I just ask where would those money comes from?

This morning's newspaper he attacked Anwar Ibrahim, saying if Anwar become PM Malaysia will be dead, which I don't think will be, but if he continue to be PM, Malaysia will be as good as dead an disappearing from the world Atlas. What credit does his words hold nowadays?

I felt it's such pittiful of him, having arrived office well early in the morning, god knows what he does in it, and being so so so hard working till late night. We must be felling a little sympathy towards him for that because he's still trying hard to give hopes to "new lifes"
