Cara Nak Menang

HENDAKLAH KAMU DEKATI DAN GAULI MUSUH KETATMU LEBIH RAPAT DARI SAHABAT KARIB KAMU.

An Open Letter to all DAP Leaders and Members

By Mr. Loi Bih Siang Benjamin
Political Scientist

The majority of the Malays support UMNO; and UMNO has plundered and mis-managed the wealth of this country with impunity. Therefore, to change the fate of our nation is to change the mentality of the Malays. This is the ONLY solution!

Without doubt, DAP has struggled and fought fearlessly and tirelessly over the past 4 decades aspiring to build a democratic and progressive Malaysia regardless of race and religion. However, I can only conclude that over the past 4 decades, DAP has completely failed to fight against the UMNO hegemony in the country.

DAP had never prepared itself to be the alternative of BN until 08 March 2008. And we have to acknowledge that DAP had been dragged and manipulated by UMNO to become or at least seen to become a Chinese-Chauvinist political party. The fact is that without PAS or Anwar Ibrahim, DAP will NEVER be able to engage the Malay electorate. The leadership of DAP has long been luxuriating in being recognized as the ‘Chinese Hero’ or ‘Non-Muslims’Rights Defender’.

Since DAP’s inception in 1966, the Party has failed to recognize the basic and simple fact that it is the Malays who decide the sort of leaders they want and they have voted UMNO in for 12 consecutive General Elections.

UMNO had always been perceived as the sole defender of Malay supremacy with their special rights and privileges, even if it is at the expense of other ethnic groups. It doesn’t require complex political analysis to understand that the MAJORITY of Malays had always been staunch supporters of UMNO.

If they refuse to change their voting preference, the status quo is going to remain. The more we challenge it, the stronger UMNO will be. Thus, for DAP to directly clash with UMNO will further enhance its image as a Chinese-based party and provide UMNO with an opportunity to have more Malay sympathizers.

An example is, if they increase the number of scholarships for non-bumis, UMNO can easily tell the Kampong Malays that they have succumbed to the pressure of MCA, Gerakan and MIC. The Malays will immediately give their strong endorsement to UMNO to defend their rights. DAP, as one of the strongest opposition parties in Malaysia, is still failing to comprehend the racial game played by UMNO.

Instead of directly engaging the Malay electorate, DAP chooses to play the ZERO SUM GAME with MCA and Gerakan. These 3 Chinese-based political parties lack the basic political wisdom to survive independently in our multi-racial country where Malays/Muslims are the majority. At least we know UMNO can easily survive by means of communalism and form the government with smaller political parties.

No matter how hard DAP argues or debates with MCA or Gerakan, it won’t change the fixed mindset or mentality of the Malay electorate. Neither will MCA or Gerakan be forced to change the mindset of the Malays by DAP!

Remember the iron fact that the majority of the Malays support UMNO; and UMNO has plundered and mismanaged the wealth of this country with impunity. Therefore, to change the fate of our nation is to change the mentality of the Malays. This is the ONLY solution!

As our most respected Regent of Perak, Dr. Nazrin Shah put it, ‘The Malay mindset is a crucial factor in our nation’s stability’. Dr. Nazrin further elaborated that, ‘racial prejudice can be erased if the Malay mindset is stable and comfortable towards forging harmony. It is a pre-condition to our nation’s stability’.

May I ask Lim Kit Siang, Lim Guan Eng, Karpal Singh, or even the writer Liew Chin Tong, how much has DAP done over the past 40 years to change the mindset of the Malays? How much has DAP done to win the trust of the Malays? How many times has DAP challenged UMNO in open debate on the academic performance of Malay students?

Instead of getting closer and winning the hearts and trust of the Malay electorate, DAP has chosen to fight with MCA and Gerakan to play the role of Chinese Hero.

Worse still, after struggling for more than 40 years in Malaysia’s political history, DAP still doesn’t have the slightest inkling of what ‘political courtship’ is all about. Even the MOST STUPID salesman knows how to be courteous to customers and win their trust.

DAP chooses to shun Malay electorate and frighten them by:

a) Refusing to wear songkok,
b) Raising the issue of Social Contract,
c) Immediate abolition of positive discrimination policies

It’s made me wonder whether DAP is paid by UMNO to strengthen their grass root supporters! If I were a DAP leader, I would ostentatiously wear the Songkok to pro-actively court and seek Malay support for DAP. I would put aside the issue of the Social Contract and would clearly and carefully pinpoint the weaknesses of the NEP to the Malay masses before revising it.

If the Umnoputras liken the fate of the Malays in Penang to the Malays in Singapore, how is YAB Mr. Lim Guan Eng going to answer this question or ‘accusation’? What YAB Mr. Lim Guan Eng will do is to imitate his predecessor Dr. Koh by keeping his mouth shut and be speechless. Silence means consent!

DAP should pro-actively and sincerely urge the Malay masses to look beyond the tiny island of Singapore and focus on the plight of Malays in Batam, Bintang, Karimun and even the slum areas in Jakarta. Ask them to compare whether Singapore Malays are better off or Batam Malays are better off.

I can help organize special tours for all the Malays/bumiputras in Malaysia to visit all the Indonesian islands surrounding Singapore to see for themselves how the Malays there are living in abject poverty and sordid conditions. Many young girls in Batam, Bintang and Karimun have to prostitute themselves to feed their family. They are also deprived of the opportunity to receive basic education and training. And we know many of them have to leave their families to become maids in Singapore and Malaysia..

We should challenge UMNO - NOT to protect the Malays in Singapore, but the Malays in Batam, Bintang and Karimun! We are not defending Singapore, but we have to speak the truth to the Malay masses. Enlighten them and so they won’t be blinded and misguided by UMNO. Shame on our Education Minister who expressed the need to travel to the UK to save ‘our’ so-called prodigy Sufiah. He should go to Batam Island to join the UN’s efforts to curb child prostitution!

For DAP’s information, Singapore Malays have progressed very well. Over the last 15 years, they have improved significantly in their academic performance. Singapore Malays have the highest percentage of home ownership as compared to the Malays in Malaysia and Indonesia! DAP does not have to defend PAP, but I would encourage YAB Mr. Lim to invite Dr. Mahathir for a telecast debate on the plight of Malays in Singapore.

Dr. Mahathir always reminds the Malays in our country to look at the Malays in Singapore, how ‘miserable’ they are without firm control in politics. For Mahathir’s information, the Singapore Parliament Speaker is a Malay and the Finance Minister an Indian Muslim like Mahathir. And so far, I have not heard of Singapore Malays being maids in Malaysia or Indonesia, and neither have I heard of a large number of young Malay girls in Singapore prostituting themselves to feed their family.

As Islam is the official religion of Malaysia, DAP leaders should openly and publicly support the teachings of the Quran in our country. I voted for PAS on 8th March to close down casinos, horse-racing, 4D and TOTO. Non-Muslims have long been paying a second tax to the UMNO government by ‘gambling-off’ their whole family savings and children’s education to win the trust and respect of Malays and Muslims.

DAP should advocate the closure of casinos, 4D, TOTO, and horse-racing as all these vice activities operators are UMNO agents. They take gambling money from non-Muslims and pay it to their UMNO Master. To cut off this source of revenue for UMNO, DAP should explain to the non-Muslim community how this gambling system works in Malaysia - and teach UMNO a lesson as we must expose UMNO’s hypocrisy!

Unfortunately, DAP leaders don’t appear to have the intelligence, wit, courage and political will to have the paradigm shift and think out of the box politically. As mentioned earlier, DAP is just a political party helplessly manipulated by UMNO. By just simply advocating the banning of gambling, DAP could win the respect and trust of Malays and Muslims plus save many non-Muslims from bankruptcy and family problems. But most importantly, it cuts off a large chunk of revenue from UMNO. ONE stone killing 3 birds.

Instead of shouting and arguing with ridiculous Umnoputras in Parliament, I urge DAP to instruct each of their members to befriend at least 10 Malays to explain to them the challenge of this ever-changing globalized economy and how we have to work together regardless of race and religion for a better Malaysia. When the Malay mindsets change, Malaysia will change; and vice-versa.

DAP, hear me and hear me well. You may be sincere, but you are sincerely wrong in Malaysian politics. Go and study what made UMNO strong. Do your political analysis. Also, DAP, you must remember that PAS is your true friend, even though they talked with UMNO. They are righteous and godly people that won’t succumb to the temptation of money. That is not the case with Keadilan. Except Anwar and a few top leaders, many Keadilan people are still carrying the UMNO-DNA, as we have witnessed with the running dog Ezam and Nalla betraying the party.

DAP, you should acknowledge the fact that the special rights and position of Malays/bumiputras are enshrined in our constitution.. You have to respect it. You must have a complete and comprehensive Malay agenda to compete with UMNO. For example, the Penang state government can provide free but compulsory tuition for Penang Malay students at schools. DAP must cultivate and nurture the Malays in Penang to excel in academics and be able to compete on equal footing with others. Penang Malays must be the locomotive change of mindset to the rest of the Malays in our country. If DAP fails to change the Malay mindset in Penang, DAP will never be qualified to be addressed as a ‘National’ party.

Lastly, DAP, you still have a long way to go and you really have to learn again who’s given UMNO power. Go to their power base, seize their power and cut off their power supply! For a progressive and better Malaysia, wearing the songkok is a trivial matter.

If necessary, let Anwar’s new cabinet be full of capable Malays like Dr. Syed Husin Ali, Dr. Azly Rahman, Dr. Bakri Musa, Tuanku Abdul Aziz, etc. to prove to the Malay masses that we, Chinese, are not power hungry; we don’t choose to ‘pegang’ so as to destroy their livelihood as UMNO has claimed. We can prove to them that even though there is only 1 Chinese Minister in the Cabinet, it is still okay to us if the highly capable and honest Malay leaders can lead our country to greater heights and serve the rakyat wholeheartedly regardless of race, language and religion!

Please learn, understand and even master the UMNO’s Art of War in Politics.

‘Know your enemies and know yourself, hundred battles hundred victories’ - ‘Sun Tzu’s Art of War’.

FOR A BETTER MALAYSIA

Hidup Malaysia…

Memahami Perbezaan

Masalah Etnik akan terus wujud. Kesilapan bukan terletak kepada Perlembagaan, atau kedudukan bahasa, agama dan komuniti atau dasar untuk menolong orang – orang Melayu. Realiti adalah berkecuali. Apa yang lebih asas ialah cara perbezaan etnik diatasi, cara bagaimana kepentingan politik dan ekonomi dipersesuaikan dan cara mana keharmonian tercapai. Ini akan menentukan keadaan perhubungan etnik. Oleh sebab inilah yang memimpin merupakan faktor penting. - petikan dari artikel Chandra Muzaffar Tahun 1974

"Jangan menukar politik dengan ekonomi akibat kita menjadi hamba orang dan negara"

Khir Toys Jawa

Dikhabarkan semasa Khir Toys menjadi MB, ramai orang-orang Jawa Indonesia yang berkahwin dengan orang Melayu Selangor telah dianugerahkan hak istimewa Melayu. Selain itu dikhabarkan juga kebanyakan pegawai2 bawahan Khir Toys ini dipastikan atau diwajibkan berketurunan Jawa. Difahamkan kekalahan BN di Selangor adalah disebabkan kemarahan rakyat Selangor kepada Khir Toys sebelum ini. Seandainya Khir Toys menjadi Ketua Pemuda Pekembar, adakah geng Pemuda juga akan dipenuhi oleh orang-orang Jawa?

Kenyataan Tunku Abdul Rahman

Perbezaan kaum berlaku tahun 1956 lagi. Orang - orang Melayu sedia memberikan hak - hak yang munasabah dan patut kepada orang - orang bukan Melayu. Orang Melayu telah memberikan pengorbanan yang banyak daripada hak - hak sebagai bumiputera Tanah Melayu kepada bangsa - bangsa yang bukan Melayu. Belum ada satu bangsa anak negeri yang telah berbudi sebegitu banyak seperti yang telah di perbuat oleh orang - orang Melayu. Sungguh pun ada jaminan hak - hak keistimewaan Melayu dan Perjanjian Persekutuan tetapi tidak sekali mencegah atau menyekat bangsa lain yang bukan Melayu daripada mencari kekayaan dan kesenangan dan lagi sehingga sekarang hak - hak keistimewaan itu masih belum lagi menghasilkan keadaan setaraf Melayu dengan bangsa - bangsa lain. Tunku Abdul Rahman

Tegas Tun Razak..

Allahyarham Tun Abdul Razak dalam ucapannya pada 17hb Februari 1971 : Seminar Perikatan yang pertama mengatakan " Saya ingin berterus - terang di sini, bahawa perpaduan negara TIDAK AKAN WUJUD sekiranya kedudukan ekonomi yang tidak seimbang dikalangan rakyat berbagai kaum tidak diatasi dan kemajuan serta kemakmuran negara tidak dinikmati dengan adil dan saksama"


Dua faktor penting yang ditekankan oleh Tun Razak adalah :

• Ketidakseimbangan ekonomi antara kaum
• Kemakmuran negara tidak dinikmati dengan adil

Pesan Dato' Onn

Political power without Economic power is a shadow. The industrial and commercial mechanism is the means by which a country satisfied the necessaries of life according to its standards of living. Those who control a vital factor in it can, if they wish, obstruct or cut off the supply of the necessity and so being decisive pressure to bear upon the political authority.

Dewa Hindu

Pernah aku terbaca dulu dalam kitab hikayat hindu lama yang percaya bahawa dewa-dewa mereka lebih dulu wujud daripada Adam & Eve. Kisahnya bermula semasa Adam sedang dibentuk daripada tanah, malaikat (angel dalam kitab tu) yang nak buat bentuk badan manusia tapi manjang tak jadi je. Ada yang tangan banyaklah, ada yang hidung macam belalai gajah la, ada yang berekor la, ada muka monyet tapi badan manusia dan pelbagai lagilah. Bermacam2 ukiran wajah dan bentuk tubuh direject sehinggalah terbentuknya wajah manusia seperti sekarang. Bentuk2 yang tak jadi sebelum tu dicampak semula ke bumi dan kononnya berubah menjadi dewa yang kini disembah oleh penganut hindu. Jadi tidak hairanlah dewa2 mereka ada bermacam bentuk dan rupa. Benar atau tidak hikayat tu atau sama ada masyarakat hindu tahu berkenaannya, tidaklah dapat dipastikan.

Atheist Komunis

Mereka yang tidak mempercayai Tuhan adalah tidak layak menjadi rakyat Malaysia. Alasannya mudah saja kerana melanggar prinsip Rukunegara yang pertama iaitu Kepercayaan Kepada Tuhan. Ada sebab prinsip itu dijadikan sebahagian Rukunegara. Mereka yang tak belajar sejarah akan bertindak mengulangi kesilapan lampau. Menafikan sejarah juga umpama cuba menongkat langit yang pasti akan menimpamu dengan runtuhan dahsyat.

Kebrobokan Mereput Ciput

Suko lak den baco ayat posting2 di blog Nuar Sawai ni. Den tak berapo paham apo yg dimaksudkan. Tapi ayat dio sojak mulo den follow Nuar 18 tahun dulu sampai skrg samo yolah ayat bombastik dio. Contoh eh..

"Saya mulakan dengan kupasan akan peri pentingnya pemerkasaan rakyat melalui wacana terbuka yang berteraskan kekuatan dan kelazatan ilmu."

Tak tau lak den ilmu tu lazat. Camno agak eh raso. Apo maksud pemerkasaan rakyat melalui wacana terbuka? Yolah den tak skolah tinggi, tak paham bonar doh. Lagi satu contoh ayat..

"Perubahan memerlukan komitmen yang tuntas dan berlandaskan kesedaran murni bagi membebaskan negara dari kebobrokan yang sudah lama mengakar. Keboborokan yang mereput ini serta kesediaan beliau untuk melintas sempadan kepartian demi menyokong usaha.."

Ayat gilo bobrok reput. Cam yo yo all je. Cakap Nuar berkenaan ekonomi pulak...

"Apa yang pasti, kalangan muda perlu memiliki keinsafan dan mengakui bahawa krisis ekonomi global tidak mampu dibendung tanpa tindakan internal yg mantap. Saranan saya, kita harus mulai memikirkan kemungkinan untuk mengasaskan satu sistem kewangan yang lebih kuat dan kukuh."

Setakat cakap camtu sumo orang buleh. Tapi macamano nak asaskan sistem kewangan kukuh dengan internal yang mantap tu? Habaq mai skit.

Kesimpulan eh..sojak den tau sapo Nuar sampai la ni..ayat dio tak habih2 bombastik yor lobih tanpo sebarang isi. Maklumlah budak Pengajian Melayu. Propa je pandey...

Ketua Pembangkang Mana?

Update Komen Nuar selepas 24 jam berlaku peristiwa. Memang prihatin:-

Saya terkejut dengan khabar berita tanah runtuh di kawasan Bukit Antarabangsa awal pagi tadi. Sepanjang ingatan saya, ini tragedi kali ketiga selepas rebahnya Highland Towers pada Disember 1993 dan juga di Ukay Views beberapa tahun yang lalu.

Hal yg diprihatinkan ialah samada kecuaian yang dikenalpasti dalam bencana Highland Towers berulang. Arahan baru agar dihentikan semua projek pembangunan dilereng bukit bukan perkara baru. Kekhuatiran kita ialah seandainya ketamakan mengatasi kewarasan, nyawa dan harta menjadi kurban.

Isunya bukan sekadar pembangunan dilereng bukit, tetapi kelulusan yang mengenepikan pertimbangan keselamatan dan persekitaran.

Ucapan takziah saya rakamkan atas pemergian 10 orang mangsa yang terkorban dalam bencana tersebut. Sama-samalah kita berdoa agar Allah s.w.t. mencucurkan rahmat ke atas roh mereka dan mempermudahkan urusan pasukan keselamatan dalam menjalankan usaha mencari dan menyelamat.

ANWAR IBRAHIM

Original Posting:-

Nuar tak komen pasal tanah runtuh di bukit antarabangsa tu ke? Sibuk plak ceramah kat orang Indon. Apa la punya ketua pembangkang. Lambat bertindak. Kalo dia jadi PM pun agaknya sama macam Pakloh. Asik pegi luar negara je kejanya.

Tahniah Kepada Komponen Yang Berani

Kayveas: We will leave Barisan if ISA is not amended. Kenapa lately ni semakin banyak parti komponen seolah2 suka mengugut UMNO? Tahniah kepada parti komponen yang berani dan terima kasih kepada UMNO yang semakin terperosok tolonya.

Cina dan Melayu Pasti Bergaduh

Khabarnya Dato’ Onn Jaafar pernah berkata "Kencing kuburnya kalau Melayu dan Cina tidak berkelahi selepas merdeka". Kuburnya tidak boleh lagi dikencing kerana ramalannya benar belaka terutama selepas berlakunya krisis kaum pada 13 Mei 1969. Kini ramalannya seolah berulang apabila pemimpin Cina seolah mula melancarkan 'perang' terhadap orang Melayu.
