20 Jan 08 almost after two months, Indians decided to stand united on Hindraf platform, Mr.Semi Velue, who was under greater pressure decided to call a MIC gathering in Cheras. But the gathering will be totally different coz the Prime Minister and Deputy PM have been invited as guest of honour. The major objective of the gathering is to show that Mr.Semi still has support from the Indians. To gather the crowd, he decided to spend millions of his “black money” as a crowd puller for the gathering. Source said, MIC Kedah has offered RM200 for each individual and RM1000 for a car full with passenger. But the bigger problem now, although the offer was high, people in Kedah still rejected it and even the bus operator refuse to drive their bus full loaded with MIC bigots to Cheras on that day. Any how I do believe, the gathering will go on as plan otherwise it’s will be a triple shame for MIC and his ineffective Mr.Semi Velue but it’s still a greater shame for him coz he will only manage to gather the Indian by bribing them and they will go with half hearted. Many might not go after they receive the money. So Indian Makkal, if MIC bigots offer you less than RM200 for individual and less than RM1000 for a full passenger of car then, you should demand more and I do believe you know what to do after you receive the money.

RM2,000 For Funeral Expenses
Selangor Menteri Besar said, the payment for funeral expenses for all the Malaysian who are residing in Selangor more than 15 years, is one of the way saying thanks to the people for helping the state prosper.
I don't understand, how he can make that as a reason for the the funeral expenses? The aid from government must goes to the people when they are still alive not after they passed away? Giving a funeral aid after a person passed away and telling their family members, this is one of the way to say thank you for the service while alive, is not the way to send a "condolence" to family members. And I don't understand too, the funeral expenses will be given to those who qualify without any discrimination either by race or religion but then why the same umno lead BN government fail to give the equal opportunity to all the citizens, while they are still alive? Is that means, non-malays will be equally treated, only after they passed away?

Ethnic cleansing: Part 2
When minorities are forcibly evicted from some of their land that is ethnic cleansing. When they are forcibly evicted from nearly all of their land and only tiny remnant communities survive, that amounts to genocide. Most Americans today seem to believe that genocide is an evil act committed by brutal dictators for the sheer joy of killing. At they same time they made legends and great heroes of the frontiersmen who led the fight against the Indians. This may be the greatest example of the “double standard” known to history.
There are three general reasons for the ethnic and religious cleansing;
i. An ethnic group that the nation wants to exclude from citizenship inhabits land that the nation wants to include as part of its own territory. This was the reason for the cleansing of Indians from the Unites States and the cleansing of Palestinians from Israel.
ii. There are many cases where two or more groups with different identities inhabit the same area. This usually causes problems for newly developing, market economy nation-state and often leads to violence but in most cases it does not lead to all out ethnic cleansing. Unfortunately the situation is so common that even though it leads to ethnic cleansing only in a small percent of the most difficult cases that still accounts for many such instances known to history. This was the reason for the religious cleansing in India and Netherlands.
iii. In a few aristocrat peasant societies and more often in imperial colonies, a situation has arisen where an ethnic minority becomes the commercial class of the society. This happened with the Jews in Central Europe and with the Greeks and Armenians in Ottoman Turkey. The British imperialists sometimes brought Indians to their colonies in Africa and elsewhere to perform the role of small shopkeeper or to labour on the plantations. In the 19th century large numbers of Chinese infiltrated into Southeast Asia and became the primary commercial class in Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines and Indonesia while these countries were under imperial control. In aristocratic states and imperial colonies it was quite possible for a foreign minority to dominate small-scale commerce and industry. When the change is made to a market economy nation-state it is absolutely impossible for this situation to continue. Commerce and industry are the life blood of a modern nation state. They cannot continue to be dominated by a foreign minority. This, along with the number two problem stated above was the reason for the Holocaust of the Jews.
In the last sixty years something like 120 new nation states has been created. Most of them were previously colonial possessions. The local populations did not form the boundaries of these countries in any kind of natural way. They were established by imperial conquerors and in many cases have no relationship to natural ethnic or economic territories. The inevitable outcome has been chaos and confusion for many of these new nations. Many of these countries have already endured episodes of ethnic violence and ethnic cleansing. Many more such episodes can be expected in the future.

Bigger lies
Source from Tamil Nadu said, Mr.Semi Velue told Tamil Nadu people, that Indians in Malaysia has no problem and all are doing well in this country. I think Mr.Semi is running out of idea on what to talk. He is representing Malaysia government and was sent there on people's tax money to give a reasonable explanation to India on what went wrong in Malaysia on 25 Nov 2007. Unfortunately he went there and trying to make Indian governement as stupid as him. If nothing went's wrong, then why more then 40K Indians from all over the Malaysia went to street? If no crisis then why governement of Malaysia sent 5 human rights lawyers to Kamunting detention centre for 2 years? Mr.Semi you cant cheat Indians any more. Time has come for you to stay at home and take care your wife.
TAMIL BLUFF : 30-12-2007
Malaysian Tamil minister Datto S Samivelu says no crisis in country [TIS]Seeking to downplay the "issues of ethnic Indians being attacked in his country", Malaysian Public Works Minister Datto S Samivelu, on Saturday night in Chennai said "an illusion is being created that Malaysia is facing a major crisis". He said "there is no problem in my country. How can the rivers be in a spate where there are no rains at all." [THE END]

Malaysian political diary 2008
I was expecting some changes in Malaysian politics for this year unfortunately we are starting the year 2008 Malaysian political diary with the sex scandal. The scandal was blown out to public a few days ago when an unidentified group of politicians distribute a sex scandal DVD which involves the MCA top guns, from door to door in Johor and later was in Selangor and Klang Valley. Today the man admitted he is the one who was in the DVD and the lady was his personnel friend. At the same time, he said, will not resign from his post but leave it to the Prime Minister. So does PM dare to ask him to leave or resign or go for leave until the general election and then drop him from the candidate list? Some said the man did his best as a cabinet minister so his personnel story is not the issue but some argue, Malaysia is umno self pro-claimed Islamic country so morally and legally is wrong. If you enforce the Islamic law, he should be charged for doing sin under the criminal code. But the most important fact is, syariah law does not bind the non-muslims. So non-muslim don’t need to worry about it and don’t present your self to syariah court but I believe morally it’s wrong and it’s wrong again to say, what he did is, his personnel chapters and he don’t need to bother about the public perceptions. If we come to that conclusion and in Malaysian politics, if moral is the personnel matter and the most important is the performance to public while in office then PM have to say it openly otherwise it’s not a good decision to incarcerate other politicians for the immoral activity, and then when it’s come to close alleys, we chose to close one eye by saying that is his personnel matter.

Ethnic Cleansing: Part 1
Ethnic cleansing, religious cleansing and genocide are not random events. They do not happen because some dictator wakes up in the morning and decides to kill an ethnic minority that day. These things occasionally happened in tribal societies and aristocrat peasant societies. Democratic market societies try to integrate minority groups into the mainstream and encourage them to become productive and prosperous citizens.
That leaves oligarchic society, especially countries that are in the early stage of nation-state development. This is when most episodes of ethnic cleansing, religious cleansing and genocide occur. It is all very well for Western nations to oppose the horrors and brutality of ethnic and religious cleansing but the well documented evidence of history is very clear on this subject. Most Western nations also made use of horrific episodes of ethnic and religious cleansing in the development of their own nation-states. The historical data is there for anyone who cares to investigate. Ethnic and religious cleansing has been regularly used as a common occurrence in the process of nation-state development.
The United States was the third modern nation-state. It still holds the world record for the most acts of ethnic cleansing perpetrated over the longest period of time. For two and a half centuries, from 1630s to 1890s, European colonist to North America evicted the native Indian tribes from their homes and forced them westward. As the settlers pushed west themselves, the Indians were cleansed again and again. Some of the most worthless land in the west was set aside for their use as Indian Reservations. Most reservations were little more than death camps where Indians were sent to starve.

Cops to get PR makeover
IGP said the PDRM will hire a group of professional media consultants to improve their public image. Well that means, indirectly IGP agreed the image of PDRM has gone down to drainage. Hiring professionals not means, organisation can boost up their image overnight. PDRM is facing greatest crisis of confidence and credibility. In over-coming the crisis, PDRM must create the confidence in community, as a protector of individuals from any type of cruelty and will act professionally. Do not let the political opportunist to take advantage on the force. Make a sense decision based on your logical thinking not on the instruction of illogical political masters. PDRM was doing well once upon time but not now any more. The major reason is due to the failure to investigate and prosecute the criminals in high handed criminal activities but when comes to political matters they are so good in dismantling the crowd in unprofessional manner. On top of that, corruption is one of the contributor for the image failure of the force, which need to be classified as a major disease. So IGP, other than appointing the media consultants, you should think professionally and wisely on countering the civil society demands other wise just waste of tax payer’s money on appointment of media consultants.
Oopss, official version says no....
Pakistan dictactor lead government says, Benazir was not gun down and the bombing was not the reason for her dead. Al-Qaeda also issued a statement denying any involvement on her death. Then who is the person behind her death? Ooopsss please dont tell us that she died due to the failure to get the oxygen since the crowd was so huge. If Benazir is taken off the track to be a Prime Minister, then who will gain politically? It can be Nawaz Sharif or Pervez Musharraf? Although Musharraf allowed Benazir to return back form self imposed exile, it's a open secret that she criticised openly the decision to declare the emergency. Even she did mention, Musharraf should be blamed if anything goes wrong on her safety. In that sense, the full investigation on her brutal murder should be conducted by the neutral investigator rather than the government agencies. The best person to run the independent investigation is the UN Security Council. UN should take initiative to conduct the investigation and reveal to the world on the outcome of the investigation. This investigation is very important since Pakistan on the track to be a "failure state" after 60 years of independence from the British government.
