“The Malays and bumiputeras do not want to be given only table scraps. We also want the main course of the economic stake,” said the veteran politician.

So says the Perkasa dude who seems to be completely off his rocker, based on the pictures that are published of him in the media. Seriously, have you seen pictures of him? He looks deranged!

First and foremost, I think the usage of the bumiputera term is grossly inaccurate because based on reports, it seems that the REAL bumiputeras have not been getting what they are entitled for. And personally, being Malay doesn’t automatically qualify one as bumiputera, if you go by the pure meaning of “sons of soil.”

And, if you want the main course, WORK for it! Isn’t it enough that so many ‘privileges’ have been and still are being handed to your people (since you want to play the race game) on a gold platter for years?

What? Scared that your ‘special privileges’ might be taken away? Scared to have to actually WORK to get what you want? Time to join the real world!

If you want something, you can bloody well put in the hard work to get it like the rest of the world and stop whining all the time! I’m so sick of reading/hearing about them crying and yelling whenever someone mentions anything about the NEP! Like, “Don’t you dare question the NEP because you are not Malay nor bumiputera.” *pukes and barfs* HALLO?! It is MY hard-earned tax money that is being used to support some of the likes of you lazy $#@%!!!

Gawd, sometimes I just feel like slapping these people.

Disclaimer : I’m totally aware that this doesn’t apply to ALL Malays. Unfortunately, the majority shouting the loudest seem to be coming from this incompetent bunch, and it doesn’t help that their voices are the ones being headlined in the news almost everyday.

One of the headlines on Mkini today :

NTV7 : Govt denies Rosmah interference
(in relation to a recent incident where there were allegations that the PM’s wife had a hand in events leading up to a TV producer walking out.)

Like, duh! Who in the world with the right mind would admit something like this?! Of course the govt would deny this!

Give us a break and stop treating us like idiots! Such an insult to our intelligence.

Bah!

What’s wrong with the existing palace?

So the breakdown of the RM811 million (original cost in 2006 was apparently RM400 million. How come it has increased more than 100% since 2006? Some more no open tender!) are :

• RM650 million for main complex
• RM130 million for flyover from Jalan Dute
• RM32.5 million for upgrading access road from Jalan Changkat Semantan to Jalan Istana

Wow! That’s a lot of taxpayers’ money. Don’t they have more pressing/critical issues to address with this money? Like, building more schools and hospitals, upgrading public transportation, helping the hardcore poor?

This country has pea-brained leaders whose main priority is to line their own pockets and leave the rakyat eating dirt.

Oh wait, I have just stated the obvious.

I totally agree with the comments on our fixation over titles.

Do not understand why this concept even exists, especially when it can so easily be purchased and abused.

Where these titled people go around flashing their titles to get things done for them, irregardless of cost/inconvenience to others.

What’s worse is that the ‘regular’ folks allow these people to do so. Because either they fear repercussions if they don’t or they hope for ‘special’ handouts or concessions from them.

It’s so disgusting sometimes it makes me sick.

Our law enforcement has nothing better to do.

According to the Malay Mail, the Malaysian police has been in talks with UK’s Scotland Yard for assistance in their bid to nab controversial blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK) during his trip to London soon.

This person hasn’t killed anyone, robbed anyone, raped anyone, beaten anyone up — at least, not that we all know of — so why spend so much time and resources try to nab him when they can spend the time and resources to nab ACTUAL criminals?

They do know that the way they are acting makes them look even more guilty of covering something up, right? Oh wait, but then again, they’re not know to be the brightest of the lot. Hmm.

Seriously, if they really have nothing to do, they should take up running or some form of regular exercise because they are all fat and lumpy, with bellies rolling over their belts.

Does he even know WHAT he is talking about?

I like this comment from a reader (although I think it’s an insult to compare cows with said idiot) :
Where has this idiot being all this while ? Does he not know his own [party's] way of managing the country thru racist quota, press muzzling,etc drive all the good people out of the country. Sometimes, its better to get a cow to be be minister. at least they are useful when dead.

More proof that the administration of this country is going down the drain.

Mich’s mother had a health scare last week, when she woke up and one of her arms couldn’t move. Mich was suspecting a heart attack so her mother went to IJN to get a checkup. After getting a general checkup and being prescribed some meds, Auntie asked to get further tests. But the admin person told her she needed to put down RM5,000 for the tests. Auntie was shocked at the amount, so she went to GH to get another checkup. The doc she saw told her no, you only need to put on RM2,000. Auntie went back to IJN and told them what the doc said but the admin person said no, it’s RM5,000. And Auntie needed to get a referral letter as well.

Auntie’s regular doc was in GH Penang (they’re from Penang) so she went back to Penang to try to see her doc to get the referral letter. But the clerk manning the appointment desk refused to let her see the doc because this person knew that Auntie was trying to get a referral letter. And she even had the nerve to tell Auntie “The govt can’t pay for things like this”. Auntie was so upset because she’s a firm believer in govt hospitals and to have that said to her face was like a big slap.

In the end, Mich’s brother (he’s in Canada) had to get his father-in-law (in Msia) to help out (not sure how but I guess the FIL has some connections) and this 70-year-old man with osteoarthritis had to wait at the hospital with Mich’s mother in order to see a cardiologist and managed to get an appointment for further tests in May.

I was infuriated when Mich related this story to me because first and foremost, GH is a govt hospital and ANYONE should be able to see a doctor at GH. Secondly, we pay taxes to maintain these hospitals so WTH do they mean “The govt can’t pay” for it?!!

So now it is even more obvious that our taxes are (1) going into someone’s bulging pockets, and (2) being used to fund useless projects, instead of being channeled to where they are needed the most. Or worse, they are being blatantly discriminating in the the patients they choose to treat.

Excerpt from Mkini :

…keynote address by Noh Omar, who alluded that non-Malays should be grateful that they were granted Malaysian citizenship.

Pray, tell me, WHY in the world should I be grateful that I have Malaysian citizenship? I am ENTITLED to my citizenship! My parents were born here, I was born here, I’ve lived here all my life, I’m working here and paying my taxes here. This is where I call home. And they dare tell me that I should be GRATEFUL???!!!!

I shall stop talking now before I say something really nasty.

And they should stop bringing up this stupid ‘be grateful’ thing because all it does is make people angry and work harder to get rid of them. Which is the only positive thing resulting from saying stupid things like this.

@$$holes.

There should be a rule/regulation that requires all Msian politicans/ministers to send their children to public schools and local universities since they keep claiming that we have such high standards in education. And to buy Msian products and use Msian services whenever and wherever possible, and fine/punish them if they don’t. Our hard-earned taxes are being used to pay their salaries (and luxuries), right?

Because I realized that even the PM’s kids are studying and living abroad in the US (or UK. One of those countries la). WTH?! And remember the whole fleet of Mercedes’ that were purchased for some govt dept? What’s wrong with your beloved Proton vehicle? Oh, and remember how the ex-ex-PM went to the US to get medical treatment for his heart condition (or some ailment) and then the ex-PM’s wife also went to the US to get medical treatment for her cancer?

Should lead by example instead of preaching to us to go local but then you send your brats overseas, drive a Merc or a Beemer, and don’t trust your own doctors enough to treat you, right?

Just shows how much faith they have in their own system and their products/services.

According to the Election Commission (EC) Deputy Chairman, Wan Ahmad Wan Omar in a report dated in January 2010, 4.39 million or some 28% of Malaysians over the age of 21 have yet to register as a voter. These are alarming statistics which we believe we have to do something about. To put things into perspective, the state of Selangor itself has an estimated 787,000 unregistered voters.

The decisions we make today shape our tomorrow, individually as a community, and ultimately as a nation. That is why we are beginning another EPIC movement we call EPIC for Unity.

Dear Extraordinary Bloggers, cyber pals and friends,

I write to let you know that Voice your Choice is starting this weekend in Klang Valley. We are going to be at 3 locations from 10am – 10pm on the 3rd and 4th of April.

1. Subang Parade
2. Amcorp Mall
3. Cineleisure, Kota Damansara

We will be at these 3 locations all weekend for voters registration.

We need your assistance to draw people out from their houses to actively come to register. We know this is not a norm but we hope to achieve that with your influence over the people that you lead through your blogs. This adventure of ours is truly extraordinary as we aim to hit an epic target of 2 million voters registered by the end of this year. Never has there been such an aim yet we are not backing out or doubting the people of Malaysia. This is because the only reason we are doing this is because we strongly believe that our people wants to be counted significant in making a difference in their community and country. The reason why there has not been action is because most people are paralysed by the fear of being alone.

Therefore if all of you join us to start this of in cyber space where we are blessed with this freedom, we are very sure, others on the ground will follow suit. Let us do this in unison with the belief that our fellow brother or sister shares the same believe that we strongly believe all of you have. That is that our tiny action however insignificant it may feel will collectively come together to make an amazing impact that will ultimately shape our future.

We plead and urge you that you not let our dream die but share it with us because we know that this dream will become a reality if more people believe in it. Please over this next 5 days write something in regards to this event on the 3rd and 4th of April. Also pls fly our e-badge as a sign of support. Our hope is that all Malaysian blogs and websites will fly this throughout this year. Attached is the e-badge & a simple guide on how to place the e-badge on Blogspot. I seek your support in sending this to your other bloggers who would support us in this movement. We need all the help we can get.
