Comments on: World’s tallest Mazu statue in Kudat - call for RCI on misgovernance by all 3 tiers of government http://blog.limkitsiang.com/2007/12/31/worlds-tallest-mazu-statue-in-kudat-call-for-rci-on-mis-governance-by-all-3-tiers-of-government/ for Malaysia Sat, 30 Aug 2008 00:46:45 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: ktteokt http://blog.limkitsiang.com/2007/12/31/worlds-tallest-mazu-statue-in-kudat-call-for-rci-on-mis-governance-by-all-3-tiers-of-government/#comment-66793 ktteokt Tue, 01 Jan 2008 22:57:32 +0000 http://blog.limkitsiang.com/2007/12/31/worlds-tallest-mazu-statue-in-kudat-call-for-rci-on-mis-governance-by-all-3-tiers-of-government/#comment-66793 Usual BN gimmick is to create problems and let the people make noise and object. And then let some half past six guy stand out and act as "middle man" to resolve the problem to show that the BN government "care, is understanding and tolerant". Beware, this may just be one of these cases to win the hearts of voters in the coming GE. If at all building a statue infringes the rights of Islam, then blaring out prayers during the Azan infringes the rights of non-Muslims. I still remembered the "Guan Yin" statue in Penang which was reduced to a "plump lady" because its original height exceeded that of the Governor's residence or the state mosque. And they have the cheeks to talk of "equality" - "membina masyarakat yang adil" as claimed in the Rukunegara. Usual BN gimmick is to create problems and let the people make noise and object.

The IRS is I - INFRINGE some of the non-Malays' right such as the MAZU case. If the protest is weak, they win and boast themselves as the Malay or Muslims' champion! If the protest is fierce, they will move to next move; R - RESOLVE the issue. Citing the importance of peace, harmony, inter-racial tolerance, the government hears, etc., and suggest to resolve the issue; like the 'Herald', 'Allah' and possibly the MAZU case. S - SELF PRAISE! Stressing the issue has been resolved through compromise between the BN component parties under the BN power sharing spirit! Advise problems can be resolved by bringing to MCA or MIC (the proper channel!) for cabinet review. Ignorant non-Malays voters are being duped into believing the BN power sharing work best for them; and they 'loyally' vote them in again! The IRS worked year after year! Please explain to everyone you know of this IRS tactic to expose their trick! IRS - means INLAND REVENUE SERVICE (INCOME TAX DEPARTMENT) in some countries. It is INFRINGE, RESOLVE, SELF PRAISE in Malaysia! ISLAMIC STATE is another IRS case! They are the one who try to INFRINGE the non-Malays' right by bringing up the issue. If it meets strong protest, they will RESOLVE, backing-out, and SELF-PRAISE they hear, they compromise on the issue in BN spirit! They would gain support not only from the Malays but also the ignorant non-Malays! It is another UMNO’s IRS tactic to con votes from the ignorant non-Malays. The IRS is
