Umno politicians benefitting from influx of labour

From around the websites . . .

It’s the way we legislate that is promoting the influx of illegal immigrants into the country. If the anti-drug laws were done away with & the gov’t distributed drugs free to the addict population, the bottom would fall out of the market in ganja, heroin etc. Similarly, it’s not easy to bring employers of illegal immigrants to book via labour contractors. The plethora of laws, rules & regulations also promote illegal immigration which benefit the human traffickers (think slave labour) & people smugglers. If foreign labour chose to enter the country legally, they have to run the gauntlet in their home country & M’sia which only benefit the politicians in both countries. It’s an open secret that many manpower agencies in M’sia are actually owned by Umno politicians who are raking it in through their nominees. It’s the same situation in I’nesia & the P’pines. People smugglers paint a rosy picture of M’sia & offer very attractive wages for non-existent jobs.

Mahathir doesn’t want anyone to question anything. In short, he wants M’sians to be morons, lapping up slavishly everything that his Umnoputras dish out so his type of half-clever Malays of Indian-origin & other Muslims who are not natives can take the nation for a ride by riding on the mindlessness of the natives & the numbers game. A racist is one who tries to deny others their place in the sun. Mahathir is a racist. He ethnically-cleansed Indians from many areas of life in the country, marginalized them & tried to reduce them to a beggar community. If possible, he would have sent them to the gas chamber. Mahathir like other Malays of Indian origin are driven by the Hindu-Muslim hatreds in the Indian sub-continent & are taking it out on the Hindu & other Indians in M’sia. This is why & how Hindraf entered the picture. One who stands up against his race being denied their place in the sun is not a racist.

It’s acceptable that natives be given their place in the sun. It’s acceptable too that they be taken into account as far as possible without handing out free lunches. But if they say that they & only they want to call the shots, it’s not only highly irregular but totally unacceptable. Don’t look for trouble. That’s my advice. However, it’s not the natives who are looking for trouble. It’s Malays of Indian origin like Mahathir & other Muslims who are not natives looking for trouble. They want to lord it over all of us when even the natives are not asking for this privilege. Mahathir should go back to Kerala where he came from if he wants to continue creating trouble in the country. There is no place here for racists like him. Everyone is waiting for him to go so that they can piss on his grave. Pissing on the grave, it must be remembered, is an ancient tradition among Malays who are native. Mahathir & his kind can claim to be Malay or whatever but the point is that they are not native. So, Mahathir should stop trying to pretend that he’s a native.

The Swiss have already explained the reason for the ban on the minarets. They don’t want any symbol to be used to gather the numbers & exploited for political purposes. That would undermine the security of the state. Already, the Muslims in Europe are demanding the syariah. If they want the syariah, they should go back to wherever they came from. Western civilization is based on Judeo-Christian traditions. However, there is no reason that a future Europe cannot be based on Judeo-Christian-Islamic traditions. After all, the Koran is basically a plagiarism of the Bible. However, Muslims in Europe are making this possibility extremely unlikely by making no difference between Islam the Faith & Islam the Politics. Europe welcomes Islam the Faith just as it welcomes Hinduism, Buddhism. & Sikhism. But there is no way that Europe will accept Islam the Politics. That’s where the terrorists breed on a sense of alienation & frustration. So, out with the minarets, the tudung & whatever. Any symbol that divides the people & sets against one another must go. Speaking of minarets, what Muslims describe as Islamic architecture is actually Old World architecture. There’s no such thing as Islamic architecture in the sense that the Muslims were not the originators but the imitators. Just look at the minarets in Russia & eastern Europe & the old churches.

Mahathir is coming across as more & more pathetic with his self-serving statements. He doesn’t believe in the maxim that when in Rome, do as the Romans do. He wants everyone to dance to his tune after the people of India threw off the yoke of Muslim rule, He’s consumed by the same hatred that bedevils Hindu-Muslim relations in India & trots out his racist theories so that his kind of people, the Malays of Indian origin & other Muslims who are not natives of this land, can lord it over everybody. He should be rightly described as the Racist Father of Makan Atas Angin Umnoputra gov’t development project scams designed to loot the Treasury of the people’s sweat. That’s where the missing US 100 billion, mentioned by Barry Wain in his book, went. Mahathir has left behind a race of lazy, good-for-nothing parasites & leeches made up of Malays of Indian origin & other Muslims who are not natives. He wants these people to form a high caste to lord it over all of us.

The story of Jeffrey Kitingan in politics

From around the websites . . .

The best thing for Jeffrey Kitingan to do is to incorporate Sabah PKR & S’wak PKR locally. This can be followed by Borneo PR incorporated locally. Alternatively, Jeffrey should return to PBS & get it to work for Sabah rights. He could also make for Sapp. Jeffrey does not seem to be particular which party he joins as long as he can get it to adopt his Sabah rights platform. The moment a party ditches his platform, he tries to take over the party & if that fails, he leaves. This has been the story of Jeffrey in politics. It would be better ultimately for the ROS to let him have his own party. He did try to form his own political party in 1994 but the application was not approved. Maybe, the ROS does not want any political party to fight for Sabah rights. This would be against the M’sia Agreement. No wonder Jeffrey formed his CIG, Common Interest Group, an apolitical movement to cut across party lines & work for Sabah rights. CIG comes across as a Borneo version of Hindraf.

None of the Indian parties, as far as I know, claimed to represent more than the 650,000 members of MIC. All other parties made smaller claims. What is important in politics is not membership but the number of supporters. Organisations with large memberships are unwieldy and besides it’s not certain that they would vote for their party during General Elections. Also, we can safely say that it’s not wise to put all of one’s eggs in one basket. It’s better to have as many parties as possible to represent the Indian community. The greater the number of political parties, the more efficient and complete the organisation of the grassroots. It’s only MIC leaders who push for one party to represent the community because they can use the numbers behind them to demand something for themselves. This approach has not worked as evident by the time of the General Elections last year. It’s time to try a new approach which probably would not work either. Only multiracialism would work.

Special Privileges only cover four (CISO) areas viz. representation in the civil service, intake into gov’t institutions of higher learning, gov’t scholarships & opportunities from the gov’t to do business. SP is not a sapu bersih policy & neither does it extend beyond the CISO areas. However, Umno has not only made the SP a sapu bersih policy in CISO, it has also extended the policy to almost every aspect of life in the country, as observed by Pakatan Rakyat chairman Zaid Ibrahim. Having said that, we also need to define who is a Malay & a native. A Malay cannot be considered a Malay if he’s not a native. Malays of Indian origin & other Muslims are not natives & cannot therefore consider themselves Malays just by being Muslim, speaking Malay & practicing Malay culture, customs & traditions. The SP is meant only for natives including Malays. Those who stay in glass houses should not throw stones. Mahathir, for example, clearly cannot claim to be a native & is therefore not Malay.

BN swears by the MIC (Malay, Indian, Chinese) theme which annoys Sabah & S’wak. Pakatan Rakyat (PR) leaders include Dayaks & Dusuns. Kadazandusun is the term for a standardised language for the Dusun community based on the Bundu-Liwan dialects. Kadazan means urban Dusun. What about the Murut, Bajau & Suluk, 3 major ethnic groups in Sabah? There are 2 smaller groups called Barunai (Brunei Malays) & Irranun. That makes 10 flower petals in all for PR’s logo. Or, will it take another 50 years before it sinks into the heads of politicians in Peninsular M’sia? We won’t be hearing anymore about PR + when Lim Kit Siang included Sapp on Sept 17 last year. Hindraf is also part of PR +. Without Hindraf there is no way that PR would have won 5 states & KL. Anwar Ibrahim just jumped on the bandwagon but seems to have forgotten that. Probably, he thinks he’s some of great hero. He even went to the shameful extent of embracing Vasanthakumar, a Special Branch operative, as the real hero of Hindraf.

Mahathir says Umno is a racist party. He should know. He is a racist & was a racist Prime Minister. What is a racist? A racist is not one who stands up for a place in the sun. A racist is a person who denies another his place in the sun. That’s why Hindraf rightly identified Mahathir as a racist & Umno, the racist party, as public enemy No: 1 of the Indian community. Mahathir is not a native. He claimed he was Malay & went on to deny genuine natives their place in the sun. He only looked after Malays of Indian origin, like himself. He also looked after other Muslims, not natives at all. He also packed the electoral rolls in Sabah with illegal immigrants from the P’pines & I’nesia & denied the natives a place in the sun. This is the extent of this man’s racism. Why did Mahathir do all this? He wanted to cloud’s people’s judgment while he approved thousands of makan atas angin projects to loot the Treasury of the people’s sweat. Barry Wain shows that Mahathir squandered US$ 100billion of M’sia’s wealth.
