Just When You Thought It Was Safe to Go to Church

Church mass last Sunday, a week after the 13 GE polls which I must happily add the ruling BN was returned to govern, was NOT without mention of the previous week momentous event.

But it was a very, very, much watered down call to continue praying. For UBAH, though it was not said directly this time, I dare venture to say.

That contemptible fellow Brother Anwar Bin Ibrahim, not content with the opposition's best showing at any general election, is taking matters into his own selfish hands putting cart before horse, with his band of unmerry men taking to the streets to usurp a democratically elected government.

Before proceeding please read, "Rallies? Demonstrations? Stop This Madness!" and
"Election petitions: The standard of proof — Art Harun". And for the impressionable younger generation voters, please take some time to visit the Election Commission portal for the 13th GE, especially the "Voters Guide" or "Pendidikan Pengundi".

Coming back to the subject at hand, if I and others like myself had thought the end of GE 13 would also be the end of politics in support of the opposition from the pulpit, out comes that idiot Bishop, Bishop Paul Tan with his histrionics and pseudo justifications.

Free Malaysia Today, "Bishop: Polls anything but free and fair"

As far as I am concerned, he does not deserve the honorific "Reverend", for I do not revere him. And to coin a familiar phrase, neither is he my father.

FMT reported,

"Bishop Paul Tan said this in reference to the report of the Institute of Democracy and Economic Affairs (IDEAS) and Centre for Public Policy Studies (CPPS).

“IDEAS and CPPS have done an interim report. In it, there is this conclusion: ‘GE13 was only partially free and not fair’. I find it difficult to believe that the report could conclude this…

“But when it concluded ‘only partially free’ for the three reasons given that are fraught with irregularities as reported in the said report, the people involved are not objective,” he said.

“From the multiple examples of irregularities arrived in the report, permit me to use a stronger phrase than that of IDEAS and CPPS: GE13 is anything but transparently ‘free and fair’,” he added."

However, "Tan, who heads the Malacca and Johor diocese, conceded that he could be wrong but stressed that he was morally obliged to speak out at this time because of the immorality practiced before and during GE13".

Well, that says it all.

When the Bishop concedes that he could be wrong why then is there a need for all the pontification?

Bishop Paul Tan coming out with his contempt for and could have been attributed to the fact that IDEAS and CPPS on the election report, had said,

"the conduct of the electoral process on nominations, campaigning, polling and results declaration were by the book and proper, with no really serious breaches of protocol that could be observed to skew the polls process"

The justification, quote,

"Tan said while he obeyed the Catholic Church’s teaching that clerics must not take sides in partisan politics, he noted that the church also taught that clerics must speak out against immoralities and against all that go against human rights"

All I can say is, Bishop Paul Tan go tell all the "Fathers" that have taken a partisan position in preaching support for the opposition from the pulpit, rather, to thank God there has been no cases in Malaysia of sexual and immoral assault of alter boys which is a worse abuse of human rights.

Of course, I am not saying or implying that Bishop Paul Tan is encouraging Catholics to take to the streets. Did I?

By the way, what Bishop Tan is telling Catholics, like me, who have voted for the BN - we are all immoral and condone human rights abuses.

The first stone has been cast.

President Barack Obama - No Ubah

US president Barack Obama has telephoned PM Datuk Seri Najib to congratulate our premier,

"President Barack Obama telephoned Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak on Tuesday to congratulate the prime minister on his success in getting the mandate from the people to continue leading Malaysia.

In the surprise call, Obama expressed his understanding and acceptance of the process and results of the country's recently-concluded GE13.

In a statement issued here Tuesday, the Prime Minister's Office said that during the conversation, the US president was also briefed on the Government's efforts to ensure the clean and fair process of the elections.

It said that on his part, Obama had agreed to participate in the two-day Global Entrepreneurship Summit in Kuala Lumpur, beginning Oct 11.

"Malaysia and the United States will continue to strengthen bilateral relations through regional and international cooperation," said the statement.

The Star reported.

Let's go back in time a bit for some parallels.

In 2000, when the youngest of first time Malaysian voters were about 9 years old and too young to remember, many Malaysians like yours truly were glued to the TV watching the epic US elections results unfolding and many like me were rooting for the Republican presidential candidate, a certain George W Bush.

Malaysians then, were hoping the Democratic candidate, Al Gore, would get his comeuppance for his kurang ajar "reformasi" outburst at the APEC meeting hosted by Malaysia earlier in 1998.

A Time Magazine report,

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia: Who's afraid of a little blowback? Not Al Gore. "That is the American message and I am proud to deliver it here and anywhere I go," he told reporters after New Zealand, Singapore and China joined Malaysia in needling the veep for bringing politics to a summit that's supposed to be all business. "APEC is an economic forum," said New Zealand's Prime Minister Jenny Shipley, whose country will host next year's summit. "Clearly there are some pressing bilateral issues that countries want to raise here in Malaysia, but it should not be at the expense of APEC."

TIME Washington correspondent Jef McAllister says Gore's critics shouldn't forget that his salute to "reformasi" Monday was plenty grounded in economic policy. It was Anwar's chumminess with the IMF that got him in trouble, he says, and it's Mahathir's nose-thumbing capital controls, not his long-time thuggery, that have the U.S. so riled. And notice that Mahathir's Asian counterparts were careful to stick up for APEC -- not Mahathir. "He's isolated himself so much from the rest of the region," says McAllister, "that the U.S. really doesn't have much to worry about."

George Bush won the presidency in the Supreme Court and as it turned out Al Gore lost even though he carried the popular vote.

It also turned out George W Bush has been accused of genocide in the US war against Iraq two years later.

Fast track to the present, troublemaker Anwar Ibrahim and his cohorts intend to take the law into their own hands to circumvent results of GE 13, making a mockery of the democratic process when recourse exists to challenge an election result in a court of law under Article 38 of the Election Offences Act 1954.

It is clear that the US has recognised and endorsed that the democratic process in Malaysia as legitimate and there is no UBAH or change in the US-Malaysia relations as a result of GE 13.

Contrived protests aside, opposition supporters most especially from the massive fraud laden party polls party, Parti Keadilan Rakyat or ironically Justice Party, are wishing the courts will provide the UBAH they seek.

God forbid, should the election result be redressed by the election court, spare a thought and be careful for what you wish.

Just like in the 2000 US presidential election when the president was decided by the courts, remember what the winner turned out to be - a genocidal maniac. Moot perhaps, a maniac no less.

Anarchy In Streets of Malaysia

I wrote about that despicable fellow's Plan B, I have been proven right.

Free Malaysia Today reports, "BN will be toppled this year"

Pro-Pakatan Rakyat groups have vowed to overthrow the Barisan Nasional government this year through a massive street rally.

Speakers at a forum held yesterday unanimously agreed that waiting for five years until the next general election was too long, and vowed to overthrow BN this year through “force”.

The street rally is rumoured to be as early as May 17 or 18 to overthrow BN and capture Putrajaya.

“We will take to the streets and take over Putrajaya. If we really want to overthrow them, there is no other way. Democracy does not work,” Haris Ibrahim from ABU (Anything But Umno) told the 1,500-strong crowd here.

“The people cannot wait anymore. We don’t want to wait another five years. We will take the streets,” he added.

PKR vice-president and Batu MP Tian Chua mirrored Haris’ cry to overthrow BN through force, and said it was the people’s choice.

“The decision to wait another five years or fight is not the right of Pakatan leaders, the results during the polls were not of Pakatan… but the rakyat’s,” he said.

I told you so.

The Election Process : Of Phantoms, Postal Votes and Cheating

All you skeptics please read how the election process proceeds AFTER you have voted.

Yes, Barisan Nasional lost the popular vote.

No thanks to the seeds of doubt effectively ingrained by the opposition and spread by hundreds of thousands of ignorant netizens throughout the various social media, intentionally or otherwise.

Free Malaysia Today reports "No significant cheating in Sungai Siput".

"However in Sungai Siput, we were not able to find conclusive evidence of significant cheating during the polling process" - By Dr Michael D Jeyakumar

I commend YB Jeyakumar.

Chinese Tsunami and the Popular Vote

When PM Datuk Seri Najib referred to the "Chinese tsunami", why was it inflammatory when what was said is a matter of fact?

And what of the popular vote of "269,130 votes based on calculations by The Malaysian Insider" that Anwar Ibrahim is trying to spring in Malaysia? There is no respect for the rules of laws of the land from this despicable man.

Yes, Anwar Ibrahim wants it both ways, pun intended. Making a claim for the federal govt on account of the popular vote. But a popular vote of an election which he rails is "fraudulent".

Here are the facts of the Chineses tsunami, read in conjunction with the popular votes, which Anwar Ibrahim as a Malay, is so proud of.

The following are the results of the Chinese chauvinist party, DAP, in constituencies of FT and Penang. The margins of the majority votes they received total 281,000 votes.

Add majorities won in Perak P64 - Ipoh Timor, P65 - Ipoh Barat and P66 - Batu Gajah, that's another 100,000 to give a grand total of the Chinese tsunami votes of 381,000 and with that the "popular" votes for the Pakatan Rakyat.

Fact, only the Chinese chauvinist DAP carried majorities in excess of 30,000 votes in the heavily Chinese majority constituencies. That cannot be said of PKR and PAS in any constituency.

And don't come with that, "How can DAP be a Chinese chauvinist party when they had Malays and Indians contesting on the DAP ticket?"

With the Chinese tsunami, even if a Bangladeshi were to stand on the DAP ticket, the Bangladeshi would win.

By the way, it could be that Anwar Ibrahim is making a big fuss about the popular vote because he himself had his majority in Permatang Pauh reduced from 15,671 in 2008 to 11,721 this time around.

A Question for YB Ong Kian Ming

Yes siree, Bob, the man with many hats, titled positions id est in DAP, Ong Kian Ming is certainly in the limelight.

I beg the question of the newly minted Serdang MP:

Do you agree that Anwar Ibrahim, as your boss Lim Guan Eng insists, is the best choice as Pakatan Rakyat prime minister of Malaysia?

Quote,

"The rest, as they say, is history as Anwar embarked on an ambitious agenda to increase the degree of Islamisation in Malaysia by establishing Islamic institutions, think tanks, and institutions of higher learning as well as introducing Islamic studies into public universities." - Ong Kian Ming
