从北京看霹雳


在北京几天的日子里,没有忘了追踪天气的变化。中国电视台全天候报道国内天气的变化,这对旅北访问的马青总团非常重要,至少我们明了衣服需穿的几薄几厚。

五月六日的晚上,大伙儿都和往常一样,问问明天的天气,大家得到的答案一样,“明天北京加热”。热了热了, 大伙儿心中思索的焦点仿佛一样,破口而出的不是衣薄衣厚,而是署理总团长马汉顺人在霹雳,没有随团,明天霹雳的天气更热吧!

五月七日,访问团前往北京大学交流,早餐、集合、上车都一样,不一样的是大伙儿都开始手机上网。讲真的,我们的焦点不是马汉顺,而是霹雳的政局转变。讲诚的,我们关心的不是国阵能不能换议长,而是在目前的民主政治体系下如何走下去。讲开的,我们的期待不是示威抗议,而是期待政治在逆境中加速成熟。

牧牛人对霹雳的政局深感不安。不安也不是为了谁对谁错,而是议会的混乱深深打击了马来西亚多年来朔造的民主尊重。从九九年烈火莫息开始,暴力慢慢的侵入了政治的统治体,抗议活动不再理智性处理。平民通过活动转达声音本来不可怕,政客参入“创造政治功绩”或是“刻意制造浮躁”来达到政治上的目的最可怕。

人民不能再以“一手握正义、一手放嚣张”来进行改革,这类改革思维只能达到“换班”的效应,但达不到“换向”的效应。“换向”需要平常心看待,平衡的评估,不能因爱一边而永远敷衍另一边;相反的,意气用事,偏袒之心,只能“换班”,换班等于换汤不换药。

让我们继续张大眼睛,仔细观察,不论何方神圣,揪出无聊的人。政治清流,路在前方。

LookCow: STOP your dirty tricks by trying to confuse the focal point here ie. by blaming Reformasi movement as the source of violence..The most outrageous and low-down tactics and violence come from BARISAN NASIONAL which raped democracy in Perak and used supposedly impartial police force against civilians, elected reps and legitimate Speaker outside and inside the State Assembly Hall.

Let me remind you that MCA Youth was also the originator of violence during meeting when you all orchestrated the SHAMEFUL fighting and throwing of chairs during MCA Youth meeting in MCA main hall, Jalan Ampang couple of years back(when Ong Tee Kiat was the MCA YOUTH Chief)..what say you? despicable-la you LookCow..

巫统主导,马华公会、民政都是夺权的帮凶,看着那姓马的伪行政议员及姓郑的伪大臣顾问的脸就恶心......来届大选一定要马华公会、民政一败再败!

告诉我们身边的每一个人..来届大选要将国阵连根拔起,不可再放虎归山.. RAKYAT will remember what happened on May 7, 2009 and Barisan Nasional will pay a BIG PRICE for this. There is a teaching in Buddhism called RETRIBUTION...and BN will face the music very very soon.....Trust me!

Cannot Agree More with LBP...Rakyat are not stupid nowadays and we can tell who is the DEVIL behind the Perak incident.

LookCow: for you, please continue to hide in denial mode and have honeymoon for the next 2-3 years, we shall see... GOOD LUCK to MCA n Barisan Nasional !!!! Soon the evil force will be subdued and eradicated..

LBP. How sad that you have very short and selectively memory. You can remember the MCA Youth fracas and the three BN friendly representatives but can not recall how DSAI has started the undemocratic tactic by going around the country to pinch for BN representatives to cross over to PR not too long ago. You condemn violence but condone what has taken place at Perak Assembly. You are ignorant about how MCA has saved your ancestors 52 years ago, so that you can have a comfortable home now in Malaysia.
Before 308, our hands are tied. We certainly did not enjoy being restrained by UMNO. We try our very best to serve the Chinese community under those difficult circumstances. However, the result of 308 has proven that our political approaches were not acceptable by the people and our past MCA leaders, including our past president have resigned to take the responsibility for our mistakes. We are now under a new leadership and are ready to rectify our past shortcomings. Like you have rightly pointed out in Buddhism, RETRIBUTION is relevant but I believe forgiveness is just as important in Buddhism.

Anonymous: I think you are just another ordinary MCA member which (I can't use "who" to describe you, sorry) chooses to be blinded, ignorant, and totally foolish! And excuse me, our ancestors worked hard on this land and they were not saved by MCA whatsoever, what a thick-skinned and barbaric statement you dared to make....outrageous!! Are MCA members "serving" the people? or you guys are just whole bunch of opportunist and apple polisher to UMNO who are beggars of projects, goodies, positions etc? COME ON Anonymous, don't fool your ownself, The GOD knows this...

The violence happened in Perak Assembly was created by BN and its cronies - Zamry, Hee Yit Foong, Ma fella (MCA state EXCO yang tak sah) and BN ABUSED the police power - let me teach you something - Legislative enjoys the same power with adminstrative (which police belongs to) and police has no right, let me educate you that police has no right to enter State Assembly hall..

MCA new leadership under OTK is only good at suppressing his deputy, Dr. Chua and Chua's supporters - I think you are the ignorant one here...

MCA will face the music pretty soon and instead of talking rots here, I appeal to Anonymous to pray more for MCA...Forgiveness is only for certain circumstances, but not for Barisan Nasional which is highly corrupted, and unscrupulously abusing country's supposedly impartial machineries (police, Suruhanjaya Pilihanraya, Anti Corruption Committee, etc etc)

I am so glad if MCA has more members like Anonymous to ensure MCA's demise be sped up....hehe

Unknown said...

Anonymous: is the truth really like what u said: MCA does not like being restrained by UMNO? hehe...GOD knows, u know, I know, and majority of voters WILL KNOW! - u mentioned new leadership, but most of the PEOPLE witness with our own eyes that OTK has no principle, no backbone at all (it was testified by the incident where Muhiddyin slapped Chinese for being "UNGRATEFUL" after losing in Bkt Gantang..your president just jumped out and unjustly defended for DPM..hey what type of MCA is this? some more u got the cheek to rake up the past about we OWE MCA because MCA saved our ancestor? what a load of crap here!!!

And how shameful that you have the cheek to defend for what happened in the Perak State Assembly Hall on May 7th...the whole globe saw the monkey acts put up by MCA/BN and HEE YIT FOONG!!

Come to think about it, we should be thankful to see more MCA members like Anonymous type - total ignorance, pompous, unscrupulously defensive, no courage to do soul-searching etc etc..which means the D day of MCA won't be too long from now.....God Bless MCA...Amen

Unknown said...

Chiau and LBP: both of YOU are WRONG!!

MCA has been so brave and heroic in serving the Chinese and the nation, see below:

1. The Chinese has to practically beg for allocations to Chinese Primary school (and opening of new primary school)for the past 50 years, and most money come from the Chinese Community - MCA gives Chinese a chance to show that Chinese is hardworking, and generous in donating money ma, how can you blame MCA?

2. When UMNO fella came out with racist statements, MCA always kept quiet, in order to preserve so-called "harmony" (or being coward??) ma, how can you blame MCA?

3. When BN took over Perak unconstitutionally, Mr. Ma from MCA hastily came up to become EXCO member and spoke all the rubbish - he wants to serve the PEOPLE ma..how can you blame MCA?

4. MCA also got SUPER-Transport Ministers and economic/finance genius(Ling and Chan) who contributed significantly to the big fiasco and boo-boo of PKFZ (Port Klang Free Zone) which balloned from original figure of approx RM 2 bil to RM 8 bil now (as reported by the EDGE, Rakyat believes this is true, if not then Mr. Ong should have taken legal action against the EDGE, why keep quiet?). so, why blame MCA?

5. Mr. Ong always use "virtue standard" to bully and torture Dr Chua internally but turned blind when facing the crap acts by UMNO/BN, Mr. Ong is teaching us what is called "double standard" ma, so why blame MCA?

There are probably another more than 1 mil instances where MCA "contributed" to the nation....sigh sigh

SO, we must say, we LOVE MCA for being very heroic, brave and contributing...I will vote for MCA!!! YES!!!

Bro. LBP:

Just to highlight that political scenerio would change anytime and anywhere. The most important is that the shift can be replaced or changed but did the vision coherrently change with the shift? Anyone can replace the political scenerio but make sure that the anyone should have a vision aswell. As an used vehicle but with extra of care and well maintenance with some reasonable rebuild, with realiable new specs it can run as well as a new vehicle. Coz such model has a well track record for the owner to rebuild it. But new model of vehicle wasn't a bad choice at all, just to have some time for the track record. Back to basic, driver does all the well maintain or damage to it.

Anonymous said...

LBP. Your reply has proven that you are sufferring from memory lapse. It is in your best interest to seek medical advice immediately. But on second thought, you cares about an ungrateful nut like you. You chose to ignore history which stated that it was MCA which prevented our forefathers from being sent back to China in the 50's. It is sickening to think that there exist an unappreciative nut in our society in you. . We will prove you wrong and force you to eat your own humble pie. May God bless you

Unknown said...

LookCow: from your reply to LBP, seems that you are one of the few in MCA who can face the reality..unlike Mr/Miss/Dr.? "Anonymous" (brainless/senseless people like this who live in a dreaming denial mode should just be expelled from MCA or seek major medical treatment..in order not to taint the already damaged MCA's image further..I think Anonymous learnt too much from Mr. "M"..this type of "gratefulness" craps won't work anymore la...remember MCA was voted by Chinese, even if they helped Chinese in 1950s, it was MCA obligations and not "FAVOR"..please la Anonymous..don't be childish and foolish!!)

LookCow, Why don't you discard the old vehicle and join the new vehicle like what Dr.Chua is attempting to? - I think you have the education, experience, and some conscience (at least I noticed you did state some facts about the black side of BN, though implicitly...in some of your previous articles...)- I am sure if you join PR you can continue to serve the People...why not give it a thought?

For your info, the Old vehicle is almost beyond repair - the combustion chamber is koyak, gear box distorted, steering bengkok, seat tainted, engine totally songsang...etc etc. You know what I mean..

And worst of all, many Rakyat have no faith nor trust in the chief "N" driver himself...and his comrades like Mr. "M", Mr. "H", Mr. "O" are nothing better....

Unknown said...

Chiu and LBP: I guess you guys should stop arguing with Anonymous man...BN/MCA are full of thugs like this and why bother to enlighten them? Let them face the cruel reality one fine day, sooner or later....

LookCow, I think Chiu's suggestion not too bad, why don't you consider following Dr. Chua's foot step? Though not elected in Kinrara, You are at least much better than the MCA Selangor Assemblyman (can't remember the name, the fat guy..) who talked cock and supported Khir Toyo's crap remarks when Eli Wong was illegally taken nude photos.

God Bless Everybody!

Chiau:
lets not talk about politic but instead Cars... Do you know cars. what is combustion chamber and what others that i believe, most peaple who know how to drive not even know what it is.

what is torgue, combustion ratio, power weight ratio, Cd rating..etc even more, go and fix your car you may not get the answer as well. But does it means if the vehicle was totally "kong" like what you say shouldn't be restore again because it is hard to do so? Why is there still Bean mobile on the road. Some old junk like Toyota Corolla still manage to run. Why, its because it was a classic model which has been proven worldwide. If its costly to restore, that will really depends onto the restorer. Some how if you DIY by some matters, i believe that it will cost less than a brand new, and since it has been bringing you for hundreds of mileage, after the restore, it will do the same.

The same old new car feeling when your dad drive you with the old dong. And after restore, you can pass on the childhood feeling to your young ones.

The vehicle that drove us all I admit it is old. But with restore process which will take some times, it will bring back the good times. Atleast it will bring you another extra hundreds thousands of mileage.

Chiau, VM, LBP
Reading your earlier comments, one can only concludes that you are anything but extreme chauvinists. You criticize anything under the sky that is associated with MCA. However, through your subsequent replies to Dr Kow’s comment, you somehow demonstrate that you are concerned citizens after all.
As a MCA member, it is utterly disgusted being criticized especially by your fellow Chinese. Admittedly, your criticisms demonstrate how MCA has deviated from its path during the inception to its later years. However, as an established political party or an “antique car”, it certainly still has its value. This “antique car” needs to be overhauled to restore it to be on par if not better than its contemporaries. Once that is done, new and good divers, like Dr Kow are required to steer it clear to emerge as champion of all Malaysians once again. So, the key are the drivers. Excellent drivers are capable to drive any car home regardless of the make.

To "teh with susu" and Anonymous, Please look at the statement below by Gerakan Youth - Even Gerakan Youth has balls compared to MCA Youth, what say you, LookCow?????

民政党青年团(民青团)强烈促请霹雳国阵尊重高等法院的判决,接受莫哈末尼查为合法霹雳州务大臣的决定!
民青团署理团长胡栋强说,高等法院已经判决尼查为合法大臣,国阵就必须接受这项判决,也不应该继续上诉。
“我认为解决霹雳宪法危机的最佳途径,就是尼查及赞比里寻求霹雳苏丹的同意,解散州议会,然后让霹雳选民再次选出自己属意的州政府。”

他是今日针对高等法院判决尼查为合法大臣一事,在文告中如是指出。

For the MCA supporters and recalcitrant like Anonymous, just continue to dream on and leave in history.. in the sweet denial mode...it's ok, this is democracy world, u can have the right to be foolish, nobody can stop u!

It is great news to die-hard supporters of PR that Nizar has been declared as the legitimate MB at the ‘material time’ by the High Court. Everyone, BN and PR supporters alike should respect the decision of the High Court and continue to respect the rules of law of this country to avoid any further confusion. Nizar should also respect the pending court case involving the 6 BN ADUN being suspended by Sivakumar. He should not call for a fresh election hastily until the court has made a ruling on the validity of the suspension. If the suspension is declared null and void by the Court, it is wrong of Nizar to call for a fresh election when he does not enjoy the majority support of the House. Politics is a number game. Even a small boy could see that PR has been trying very hard legally/ethically or other wise, to curtail the numerical advantage of BN by suspending 6 of its members. It is equally plain to understand why people like Chiau is calling for fresh election as PR ADUN is out numbered by it BN counterparts in the House. Supporters of PR will pull out all kind of tricks to prevent the motion from being put to vote in the House to avoid defeat.

Dear All:

I read all the exchange of views with Great interest..it seems the views of PR and BN/MCA supporters are far divided...

I am just an ordinary Rakyat who tries to see the Perak issue from a lay man perspective - I think MCA/ BN supporter like Anonymous still could not understand where the majority of Rakyat is coming from - BN illegally robbed the Perak government and now is a good chance to dissolve the state assembly as to return the Power of Selection to the RAKYAT of Perak! However, as expected the almighty BN will refuse to do so!

If BN/MCA devastating results in Bukit Gantang has not woken u guys up, I think the next GE would certainly prove it..

By the way, we did not see a single response from the Blog Owner himself over the series of comments here, where are you, LookCow? as quiet as your MCA president? or MCA is so used to maintaining "no stand" in most issues?

Thanks for your comments. I am intrigue with your remark “not waken you up”. To say that we have not woken up is a grossly understatement. MCA is a political party that is form to serve the people. Our relevancy is dependent on the support of the people. After the 308 heavy defeats, MCA has gone into deep soul searching immediately. We look back at our past policies that were rejected by the people. Amongst others, we found out that we can no longer drawing a clear line among the component parties within BN, where each component party is left to look after the interest of its own community and doing its own things. We admit that we should have done more in highlighting the issues of corruption, independence of judiciary, increases in petrol prices etc which were very cleverly exploited by DSAI, whom was being advised by many foreign political experts and his political campaign being funded by foreign organizations. DSAI played a very smart political game during 308 where he and PR leaders intensely and consistently kept highlighting the same few issues that were very close to people’s heart such as corruption, judiciary etc at every political campaign through out the country. His political strategy worked perfectly and his messages sunk deeply into the mind and heart of majority of West Malaysians. The rest are history.
In the past, MCA has certainly played its role in helping the Chinese. Amongst others, when the quota system was introduced at tertiary institutions, we set up TAR College and UNITAR and campaigned for private institutions be allowed to be set up in Malaysia to ensure that Chinese would not be hampered in their endeavor to pursuit excellence. Due to space constraint, I would not go into details on others.
Back to present, amongst others, MCA is looking into helping 26% of Chinese students who do not complete their secondary education. On the bigger picture, PM has introduced 1Malaysia concept. He has followed up by abolishing 30% Bumi equity requirements in 27 services industry. He also dealt with the touchy issue of religion where he told Malaysians to focus on the similarity. He has also introduced KPI to monitor the performance of Minister etc. Let’s hope that PM will be successful in implementing the policies for the betterment of all Malaysians.
Looking back at 308, it has certainly brought better check and balance into our political landscape. People may prefer PR who is riding high at the moment, but MCA will not throw in the towel. We may lose in the next general election, and if we lost, we will be at the neck of next government to ensure a clean, efficient and effective government for all Malaysians.

Dear JitSinAlumni:

Most of my view on Perak issue already written clearly in some of my blog publishing. Democratic practice must based on majority, don't border whether the decision made by voters on 308 was right or wrong. The appearance of 'frogs' resulted on 308, they're the people choices. Barack Obama won the president post as Democrats, if announcement been made Obama no longer as Democrats, swing as Republicans, then election should take place immediately? My political stand as simple as that, we do hope voters grow mature, identifying the 'dirty' 'politikus'. Both PR and BN are playing games now, game of 'lubang', you're sure that if DSAI is BN Prime Minister, he will said: Never mindlah, let the minority lead the government, OKlah, dont fight, comelah Lim KS, you take over my PM seat....

敬请LookCow 别一味学巫统强词夺理说什么民主是少数服从多数,民主的内涵绝对大过于简单多数,它还包含服从宪制精神、民主程序、尊重少数,以及自由人权等意义。

Well, you should be grateful to me for teaching you what is called democracy.

I think Dr. LookCow is not only poor in English, you are extremely shallow/ corrupted in thinking as well. Well, you can choose to adopt hypocrisy as your shield moving forward, but as I mentioned before, Rakyat are monitoring BN/MCA fella very closely, and your old tricks and gimmick won't work anymore, ie not only in Kinrara, but elsewhere. Best of luck!

Come to think about it, you are probably not to be blamed because 99% MCA fella are just like you, you are of no exception....

Unknown said...

Brother VM: Spot on!! What more can I say?

However, if we argue until cow comes home, the BN recalcitrants would still never accept the fact that BN had committed a big sin!

By the way, the " "high virtue" Hypocrite Ong is even more outrageous and thick-skinned...haha, the PKFZ (Pork Klang Free Zone) boo boo is another BIG CONTRIBUTION by MCA/BN to the nation, can't imagine a hefty RM 8 billion sum involved!! Of course they are playing with time trying to hide everything now.......SHAME on MCA/BN!!!

VM. some people are more fortunate than the others where they are blessed with good command of languages. But when your day comes, God would not ask you how many languages you have mastered. The Almighty would ask how you have used your linguistic proficiency to help the others. In our everyday life, language is only a mean of communication. It is a tool to put your messages across to your listeners. Although there is still room for improvement in his command of English language, I believe you understood Dr. Kow’s message well. In term of political ideology, I suggest that you should make your self available to fix an appointment with Dr. Kow to listen to his to political views. I believe such discussion session would be fruitful and beneficial.

I agree that God would not ask us how many languages we have mastered..

BUT the God would definitely be interested in what are the crap acts committed by you guys. It is a known fact that most MCA fella have been the accomplice of UMNO in committing all sorts of crap acts (or at least MCA is bloody quiet and remained extremely silent or try to distort the facts..look at your own Mr. Ma in Perak, you will know why people are angry with MCA...Anonymous, LookCow, go clean up MCA shits first before trying to act as being democratic here) - out of the instances as below, ask yourself where is your conscience? - from corruption, racism all the way to abusing judiciary system, disrespecting People's will in Perak, manipulating police force for political gain instead of pushing police to protect people's property and lives from the skyrocketing crime rate in Malaysia.

When UMNO misuses SPR, MACC, where is your conscience to speak up? where is LookCow?

When scholarship mismanagement issues sparked off, Port Klang Free Zone RM 12 Billion alleged misappropriation of fund disclosed by opposition, where is MCA? where is LookCow?

If I want to mention here, there will be 1 Million other nonsensical stuff that the BN committed but MCA members either chose to remain silent or worse still, was in cahoot with UMNO!!!

So, for Anonymous, ask yourself the above first before trying to act philosophic and religious here and search your soul middle of the nite - the GOD is watching you guys, let's think about how you guys will face the GOD one day!!

MCA and BN fella can have power, money, position etc, but let me remind you that there is this thing called RETRIBUTION, good luck !!!!
