Samy Vellu’s days are numbered - Subra as next MIC leader

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu has become the most unpopular politician in the country and probably in Malaysian history, being booed, jeered, car blocked, thrown stones, rotten eggs and even slippers almost every day in public places.
This public rejection of Samy Vellu has spread to MIC and Barisan Nasional (BN) functions, with other MIC [...]

Mandate of heaven this nation awaits

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Dr. Azly Rahman
Sometime ago, I wrote these:
1)”Let our children learn that it is terrifying to be corrupt; such as to build palaces while the homes of the poor are demolished. Let us teach them to vote with their conscience.”
2) “The current regime cannot solve the problems it creates. It must dismantle itself, die [...]

Just Vote opposition to deny BN 2/3 Majority

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Letters
by Richard Teo
I would like to refer to the Malaysiakini article ‘Finally a chance to wrest Penang.’
In this article, Ronald Quay seems to contradict himself.His caption seems to suggest there is a good chance of the opposition wresting Penang from B.N and yet in the same breathe predicted that’B.N will [...]

Freedom of the press

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

By Ishwar Nahappan
Dr Mahathir thrust a deep dagger into the heart of fundamental and civil liberties of Malaysia. This is the legacy that he will be known best for. Progressively under his rule the concept of “Free and Fair” elections were thrown out of the window.
The expression “Free and Fair” [...]

How to Stop Cars and Win Enemies

Monday, February 18th, 2008

By Farish A. Noor
When it comes to dealing with the grouses of the Malaysian public – many of which happen to be legitimate, mind you – it would seem that the benighted leaders of our blessed country have read every single page of the stupid book.
We recall the period when we, the Malaysian public [...]

Financial Autonomy To Universities A Good Start

Monday, February 18th, 2008

by M. Bakri Musa
The decision by Minister of Higher Education Datuk Mustapa to grant financial autonomy to public universities is a good start. He should not stop there however; he should also push to extend academic, management, and other freedoms. Our universities will forever remain trapped in mediocrity as long as they remain [...]

Po Kuan - Malaysia needs you to create history to deny BN 2/3 parliamentary majority

Monday, February 18th, 2008

Traditional DAP stronghold Bukit Bintang has become a “danger” seat - the Battle for 5Cs

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

I have chosen Bukit Bintang as the first DAP parliamentary constituency to visit after the dissolution of Parliament on Wednesday because this traditional DAP stronghold for over three decades has become a “danger” seat through dirty electoral tricks with the influx of over 6,000 postal votes since the 2004 general election.
DAP [...]
