I refer to your statement that said UMNO lost all Malay majority areas in West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. With due respect to you, please do some fact finding first.

Need I remind you that UMNO won in many Malay majority areas such as Sepang, Kubang Pasu, Pasir Salak, Lenggong, Kepala Batas, Larut, Padang Rengas, Kuala Pilah, and many others.

The truth is that the political party that you really cherish , DAP, has been playing with racial sentiments by scaring away non Malays with regards to Keris issue. I saw the speech by Hishamuddin. At no time, he tried to intimidate non Malays or playing to the gallery.

May I humbly remind you of what Raja Muda of Perak said 2 days ago in Kuala Kangsar. I mean no disrespect but I found that you are not being fair no UMNO.

As for Alenath, religion and race are 2 potent forces. Perhaps you will know what PAS is all about. In the previous election, PAS openly distributed “risalah” reminding Muslims that it is haram to vote for non Muslim candidate. Yes Sir. It happened in the constituent where the current Menteri Besar of Perak won. His opponent is from MIC.

PAS talks about Islamic state. But its actions is nothing but Islamic.

But I see PAS is still the Islamic Tiger in sheepskin. I voiced out strongly in this blog against PAS’s hidden agenda & for DAP & PKR to go alone or even DAP to go solo!

Now 100 days after the GE, you see what I said is true!!!

Now in this blog everybody lashing out at PAS!

Folks, we have bigger fish to fry, so I suggest that you guys adopt the Beatles’ “Let It Be”.

I am here to share my thoughts with others and hope in the exchange we all could learn something new each day. It is very distracting when someone insists on putting words into your mouth, deliberately manipulating your remarks to suit his needs so he could go on his usual tirade. If I were to keep quiet then it will stick.

We do not need to go further than to ask this question:

What sort of person is he who chooses to rely on what is purportedly implied when there are clear written expressions to the contrary?

That’s right! Please tell the resident gatekeeper that was what I said and in unequivocal terms too! It is just a bare assertion, however, on my part and is not meant to be anything more than that. It is not meant to convince anybody.

Like I said earlier, time is better spent in dealing with the current problems rather than speculate on what is to come say in the next five decades - especially when that helps to avoid the semantics of what is really an Islamic state etc. Allowing for the possibility of an Islamic state of whatever strain or form replacing the present secular government with its state religion (personally I prefer the term ‘official’ religion as I think the term ‘state’ would put it one notch higher than it really is) in the immediate foreseeable future or not so immediate foreseeable future, the fact that Islamic values have for years now permeated and are permeating almost every aspect of the lives of non-Muslims today is enough to convince many of us Malaysians to get out and stay out. It is that intrusive socially compared to the 1960s – we are not dealing with the political and the economic yet.

I do not know if we have anything that we could call Malaysia’s foreign policy but if we do then the influence of Islamic values, would leave no small mark. There is a marked increase in anti U.S. sentiment since the invasion of Iraq. I used the case of Christian evangelicalism and its influence over U.S. foreign policy as an example of how religion could exert its influence in an area commonly regarded as secular.

Yes, you’re right. It is hardly a convincing argument that Malaysia will not become an Islamic whatever that is. In my opinion, time is better spent in discussing the influence Islam has over government policies today. Let’s not wait for the coming of the Islamic state. Some may say it is already here i.e. Malaysia is already half an Islamic state and a full Islamic state with shariah law replacing the secular civil law based on the English common law, is impossible because of the sizeable non-Muslim minority.

Non-Muslims non-Malays are packing up, making plans for a life elsewhere as we speak if they’ve not already done so.

“Correct me if I am wrong.It is believed that Malaysia’s is on track to become an Islamic state if it is not already one now-much like Marx’s dialectical materialism, an air of inevitability.May we know the foundation of that belief?”.

First I’ll start by saying that my starting remarks have no referance whatsoever to you.I find in you a learned man ever careful in choosing words carefully and most of your arguments are pretty persuasive and forceful.

Whilst I cast doubt on your assertion that Malaysia is never (that’s a pretty strong word) going to be an Islamic State,it does not immediately suggest that I am asserting the opposite direction ie Malaysia will certainly become an Islamic State although I must add that I am not disinclined to object to the possibility that Malaysia could become one in the future.Becoming an Islamic State or a communist state for that matter is a number game.If enough people root for it, it will become.Islam Religion is always for the establishment of an Islamic state and it will advocate any means to achieve that ie whether by incremental steps or by deception (come what may). Lee Wan Yan has written about this at length and Jeffrey’s ‘ boiling the frog’ syndrome.Their arguments certainly have great impact on us to envisage such a possibility.It may not happen in 20 years time but who is to tell it won’t in 50 years time.
This is where you and I differ, undergrad 2.You haven’t succeeded in persuading me that Malaysia will NEVER BE AND CAN NEVER BE AN ISLAMIC STATE.
