The action of Bayan Baru UMNO Youth to lodge a report against Penang State Deputy Chief Minister II Prof. P. Ramasamy is both unnecessary and malicious.
Prof. Ramasamy speech did not criticize the affirmative action concerning the Malay community, but merely critized, substantiated with statistics, how UMNO has maneuvered a communal monopoly of the public sector [...]
Teresa is out…but there are still Raja Petra (RPK) and more than 60 detainees under the ultra vires Internal Security Act (no official stats from BN Government).
Out of the mouth of babes…
Innocent eyes and minds innocent still,
Came to protest our Country’s ill.
We are not so innocent, but we want to do our little part…

As we are all waiting for the dawn of a new era for our beloved Malaysia, let us take some time to listen to conscientious voices from former times…
The ancient social reformer Isaiah Ben Amoz said these words to a corrupted nation, and I think he speaks to us today as well, both as a warning…

3.00 AM - Just came back from urgent meeting at CM’s house in Penang…
Press Conference outside the Perda Police HQ Gate
I received the news of Ms. Tan Hoon Cheng’s arrest about 9.00 PM yesterday from CM’s political secretary while coming back from a dinner. JR and I immediately rushed to the district police HQ to [...]

Anyway, this [...]
I got this nice little statitistical data on email this morning…The turnout was almost the same during 308 GE and 826 BE with only 477 voters lesser on 826 BE, but UMNO suffered a greater lost compared to 308! Arif Shah’s vote was 1426 lesser than what UMNO received earlier in March. And Anwar Ibrahim [...]
An intense week of campaigning just ended for me…
I was on duty at the Teluk Wang polling district for the P44 Pmtng Pauh By-Election since about 8 am this morning. Some interesting observations:
1. Although there were waves of blue Barisan Nasional posters and flags everywhere, the presence of a single race Malay supporters in Arif [...]
I met with my old fren Chris today, he is volunteering with Mafrel to monitor the P44 BE. We went out for dinner together with another key Mafrel leader, BK Ong.
