As Sep 16 draws nearer........

All of a sudden, Sep 16 seems to be the most important day in Malaysian history. By the way, it's also my good friend's birthday! T, if u are reading this, "Happy Be-earliered Birthday!"(Just in case I forget!)

So back to Sept 16 in our nation's context. There has been a flurry of rumours going around via word of mouth and the blogs. While many of these rumours cannot be substantiated with hard facts, some developments in the country has given credence to these rumours.

a)Yesterday's press conference given by "Pendatang" Ahmad Ismail smacks of arrogance and I believe racial in nature. He still thinks he has done nothing wrong uttering the words in his speech. Worse of all, scores of UMNO members were with him! They shouted "Hidup Melayu" and even tore posters of Koh Tsu Koon and Gerakan. What is wrong with these people? We, the chinese and I am quite certain I can speak for the Indian community as well, are not here to take over your country and displace you into the backwaters of society. We just want better opportunities to pursue a better lifestyle. Is that too much to ask? We did help to build this nation as well! The PM and DPM is meeting with Ahmad today and action will be taken against him. We await anxiously.......

b)Gerakan has severed ties with Penang UMNO while the MCA has severed ties with the Bukit Bendera UMNO division. Now doesn't this seem odd? You sever ties with UMNO Penang but you are still in the BN coalition? WTF? FYI, the PM is fm Penang and is the head of Penang UMNO. Does this mean that you do not want to have ties with the PM as well? If that is so, then the Gerakan shd get out of BN! As for the running dogs MCA, stop putting up a "Sandiwara" and grow a backbone. Who cares abt you anymore anyway!

c)The so called "Lawatan Sambil Belajar" by 50 MPs today to Taiwan is another example of how our hard-earned money is being wasted. The Govt has mentioned that the MPs are paying for the trips themselves. Please, don treat us as retards just b'cos u are! You expect us to believe that? I am amazed that this trip can be cooked up in a week. Normally trips like this would have to be planned way in advance, But Malaysia Boleh! And the timing is just perfect! Middle of Ramadan and also over Sep 16! So what is it that the MPs are planning to learn from this trip? Would love to see the itinerary of the trip. Shopping? Anyway, is this trip going to stop any MPs from crossing over?

d)The Court's decision to nullify Joseph Kurup's win in the general election is interesting. The by-election to be held soon would tell us if the PR has made inroads into Sabah, who has been a Barisan stronghold. But what irked me the most is Bung Mokhtar's comments. He said that he is sure the people of Sabah will rally around the BN b'cos they did not want chaos like the people of Permatang Pauh! That is a total insult to the people of PP! They voted for change not for chaos! They voted for a govt with good governance not a crap govt! They voted for a better future! Since this is a season of apologies, Mr Bung shd apologise to the people of PP. Oh I forgot, the people of BN can just shoot of whatever they want fm their mouths! They will just be told to "Jangan buat lagi"

So let's await Sep 16 together!

Interestingly enough, Raja Petra has claimed that Anwar already has 34 MPs letters of resignation from BN. These are the MPs who have been shipped off to Taiwan in an attempt to make them change their minds!
Also the date fer take over has been moved from Sep16 to Sep20 as the Agong is away until the latter date.

We await with bateed breath . . .

sure they're ameno's running dogs but i actually took mca&gerakan's stance on this positively. the non-malays have made their mind up that this particular party is harmful not just to their community, but the country as a whole. soon they'll be ditched by their own friends and history will be in the making, ameno fellas could be on the other side of the floor.

AD : You mean brainwash or threaten them? Highly possible. I also heard that some of the MPs that were supposed to be there but did not make the trip. Most were from Sabah. Maybe some truth to Sep 16 after all!

Kerp : The MCA n Gerakan has always been on the sidelines even on issues affecting the Chinese. It is just shameful. If they still keep quiet over this Ahmad issue then they would have lost every last bit of credibility that they have.

so the idea of Agong going to Mekah was BN's idea?

Sen : It could well be. If u were in the country now, u will be hearing all kinds of rumours from so many parties. You don't even know what to believe anymore.

At least one good thing happened yesterday. The Pendatang Ahmad fella got suspended 3 years!
