BN - Between Dependence, Benevolence & Malevolence

Najib: “But please. We help you, you help us, I will deliver what you want, you must deliver what I want and you know what I want”.

Yes, what he wants is to have this nation at the mercy of him and his cronies for a long time more. They have much more evil planned in store for Malaysia.

This is the man who promised to bathe his keris in Chinese blood some time ago, and now his keris-wielding cousin is the Minister of Home Affairs, and the police are running wild. He may be deceptively baby-faced and pink-lipped and his cousin rather effeminate, but have they really managed to charm the Sibu voters with their guile?

How much more demeaning and degrading can it get to hear the Prime Minister of our country talking like this? He must be really desperate!

He must be absolutely desperate to openly commit election bribery and corruption. But that seems to be the BN trend not the least from the Bagan Pinang and Hulu Selangor by-elections.  They are really beginning to sound like losers and act like losers (and sore losers at that). It appears that the only way the BN can win any by-election nowadays is to throw big money at the voters, money which happens to be the people's money anyway, if only the people would realise this.

Well, some do and possibly the voters of Sibu, like Kuala Terengganu, will not fall into the BN's trap. We have to give the Sibu voters credit for being smarter than Najib!

Sarawak Headhunter urges all Sibu voters to read Romerz's article posted here. See also Zorro-Unmasked here and Nat here.

Hopefully, the voters of Sibu will get the message. If they don't then we still have a lot of work to do changing their mentality of dependence on the lies, promises and threats of the BN.

The other problem is that  if the electorate no longer depends upon the "benevolence" of the BN then they  (the BN) become malevolent! Upon the malevolence of the BN we can trust!

That is why they have absolutely no shame in making both subtle as well as overt threats when they do not get what they want, even if these threats also constitute breaches of election laws - to which they think they are immune because the Elections Commission is on their side and will do anything including abuse its powers to ensure that they get their way.

 Only the voters can tell them otherwise.

VOTERS OF SIBU, TELL THE BN AND THEIR PARIAH PM THAT YOU CANNOT BE BOUGHT, CORRUPTED OR BRIBED (ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR OWN MONEY) AND THAT YOU CANNOT BE THREATENED OR INTIMIDATED BY THE LIKES OF THEM!

FREE YOURSELVES FROM THE TYRANNY, EXPLOITATION AND OPPRESSION OF THE BN'S CHIEF THUG AND GANGSTER IN SARAWAK, TAIB MAHMUD AL MAHALANUN.

LET THEM KNOW THAT THEY CANNOT CHEAT ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME.

SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE TO THE BN "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!" & "TIME FOR CHANGE!"

This is a re-post from an article appearing in Malaysiakini which explains very well how Malaysians in general view UMNO and PAS.


M'sians - East or West - deserve better than Umno

It was reported that DAP leaders met church leaders in Sibu to explain the Allah, and other religious issues. I sense many Christians in Malaysia want to contribute to the nation's well-being but are not completely certain whom to trust. I will therefore summarise the salient features of ethnic politics in West Malaysia, and let the East Malaysians make their own inferences.

I will focus on the Umno leadership because Umno is still the most powerful force in Malaysia. Umno leaders are addicted to the wealth and power that is derived from corruption and wholesale abuse of power. Umno has deliberately weakened the state to become all-powerful. West Malaysians understand there is nothing Umno elites will not do to protect their personal wealth and power including misusing race and religion to further individual worldly ambitions.

Perkasa came up with some nonsense about the 'blue ocean strategy' but Umno has already bankrupted the country with decades of a 'white elephant strategy'. Basically Umno leaders approve one useless expensive project after another, inflate it by 100 - 1,000 percent, repeatedly subcontract it, and take their lucrative cuts along the way. In this way, Mahathir wasted US$100 billion of your tax money

To be more accurate, Mahathir may have made his own family, friends, and Umno cronies obscenely rich by taking it all from you. Essentially, they got their cut, and you funded it, you bailed them out, and you got robbed. Instead of state resources in Malaysia being used to fund the poor and needy, it is the poor and needy, the ordinary citizens who fund the rich and powerful in Umno.

This has been labelled the malaysian NEP, Umno's white elephant strategy, Perkasa's 'blue ocean strategy', Third World African kleptocracy, Umnoputra's trickle-up economic strategy but essentially if you are a taxpayer, no matter your race or religion, then truly, you are being exploited by Umno.

Basically, Umno leaders have turned getting robbed in broad daylight into a patriotic duty, where they will rob you but then accuse you of being ungrateful, and a pendatang, or a pengkhianat if you finally decide to vote Pakatan instead.

You only have to look at Marcos in the Philippines, and the generals in Burma to know where Malaysia under Umnoputra leadership is heading. The bottom line is Umno addicts cannot reform. They can only be kicked out by determined voters. The 'Allah' issue was a side issue that had nothing to do with Christians trying to confuse Muslims.

It had everything to do with Umno feeling threatened by PAS and PKR Malays. If Umno cannot make itself look pious by accusing the non-malays of threatening Islam, if Umno fails to demonise non-Malays and non-Muslims, and if Umno cannot offer meaningful reform like clean government, then PAS will win all the Malay votes. Courageous moral leaders like Tok Guru Nik Aziz of PAS have said racism has no part in Islam and have repeatedly backed democracy, clean governance, and fairness for all.

If these are the spiritual and governing principles by which PAS and Pakatan stand by, then it is only a short matter of time before every informed citizen - every Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucianist citizen who understands the truth about Umno politics - will vote for Pakatan.

The only other thing that Umno has left to offer are the racial quotas that some Malays feel they would need to exist. This erroneous belief persists courtesy of the massive Umno-funded mass media brainwashing outlets like Ugutan Malaysia, Biro Tata Negara, and RTM.

Unlike Umno, PASrefuses to demonise nor scapegoat anyone to win votes. I am not qualified in any way to tell East Malaysians whom to vote. But surely Malaysians deserve better than Umno.

Sarwakians must not be fooled by Taib Mahmud’s announcement of lower or “lowest” premium for property renewal. Make no mistake, Taib Mahmud is the “government of Sarawak” and he thinks Sarawak belongs to him too. Unless and until anything he says are made into law and gazetted it is just Taib Mahmud farting! Will Sarawakians benefit from a lower premium( if ever it isgazetted and stated in the Sarawak land Code) if there is no guarantee that their properties will be renewed upon expiry?

Taib Mahmud has long identified the urban land which he wanted to take by changing the housing ministry to that of ministry of housing and urban renewal and given special power to enter and acquire any properties or land. This minstry shall have the right to take back any residentail or commercial properties which the government of and for Taib Mahmud deemed to be in a deplorable condition and or not befitting an urban environment. With a lower land renewal premium it can only mean the market values of the Sarawak properties acquired by the government of and for Taib Mahmud shall be much lower and compensation shall be much lower accordingly.

There is nothing that benefit the people a litlle that will not benefit Taib Mahmud tremendously. There is nothing that Taib Mahmud’s empire cannot supply to the proposed SCORE project , Aluminium Smelting project, Hydro-electric dams projects, and all major infrastructures to be implemented in Sarawak. All these did not happen by accident or chance. All thee have been planned with meticulous details with absolute power that he now enjoys. Whenever taib mahmud gives sarawakian an additional of 1% benefits he shall take back another 99% benefits for himself.

Who is the real and main owner of Sarawak Energy Bhd, Assar Senari Port, Assar Senari Chemicals, Mukah coal power plant, Sejinkat power plant. Any layman will think it is 100% owned by the government but one need not complete primary six to know that the major shareholders of all these so-called government agencies are owned by Taib’s family and cronies. These are Taib Mahmud’s strategic companies controlling all the strategic resources in Sarawak.

Malaysians in Sarawak must not be swayed by his announcement on lower land premium. Taib Mahmud has done all his evil calculations long ago on how to rob Sarawak and Sarawakians . We must stand our ground and exercise our right by voting out this evil and corrupted regime in Sarawak and Malaysia. By denying UMNO controlled BN every single parliamentary seat in Sarawak and the rest of Malaysians doing their part in all other states we shall defeat this evil and corrupted regime. Sibu parliamentary seat is just as important as all other parliamentary seats for us to help ourselves to defeat UMNO controlled BN.

Vote Pakatan-DAP to save Malaysia and Sarawak.
