		<description>DEar Mincefortoiletpaper,

What a name. Anyway, I beg to differ. Yes, there is racial tension in this country. But not by UMNO. Malays are upset( And I assume you are not aware) when Teresa Kok starts messing with &quot;papan tanda with Arabic words&quot; on them.

Yes Sir. People in Malay community is asking if she can violates National language, what is stopping the Malays from questioning rights accorded to non Malays during Independence.

I told my Chinese friends on this matter. They are dumbfounded. And the next reaction is very predictable. We do not know this. Yes sir, because none of you bothered to read Malay newspapers.

Malays are asking if Bar Council is so ready to hold a forum on &#039;Social Contract&quot; and created a blunder by having only one Malay panelist whom no malay regards as qualified to speak for them( FaRISH nOOR), what is stopping Malays from reacting; that is questioning citizenships of Chinese community.

Constitution is sort of bargaining deal. our constitution recognises the rights of non malays( by giving them citizenship). And it also recognises that prior to the coming of Chiniese and Indians to to then Malay states, this land is exclusively owned by Malays.

A compromise ( a wonderful reflection of ever obliging race that is Malay) was reached. In return of citizenship, some historical facts are accorded recognition. One of them is Malay Language. It is accorded as National Language.

So when Teresa Kok starts messing up with &quot;papan tanda( what else if not for stirring racial sentiment) , Malays are upset. They take is as not violating the constitution. Hence, question on citizenship.

And it gets unpleasant. As any govt worths its salt has to react, Teresa Kok was detained. 

And if Uncle Lim or Bar Council wish to question some parts from Constitution such as the position of Islam ( had alreadybeen  done by Bar Council) , please accept reality that Malays have no qualm on questioning your citizenship. 

And where it will lead Malaysia?</description>

		<description>ah mincetoiletpaper, and what do you make of Nik Aziz, Hadi Awang, Dr Hatta, DSAI speaking up to reject ISA. what do you make of Zaid breaking ranks with his party to reject such use of ISA? Are they all part of this evil Chinese vs Malay trap of racist strife that UMNO hopes will ignite spontaneously? It may have been as you suggested had the Chinese risen in protest, taken to the streets and challenged Malays on the same racist terms as UMNO did against the Chinese. But the Chinese did nothing like that, did we? did you? we challenged the issue - we simply rejected the statement that despite being 3rd, 4th and even 5th generation born-in-Malaysia Malaysians, we were labelled &#039;immigrants &amp; squatters&#039; here only at the pleasure of the Malays. We did NOT sling racial slurs, we did not address the issue by making equally stupid tit-for-tat statements. And our Malay BRETHREN, of the same red blood and white flesh under the skin as ours, simply rejected the nonsense Ahmad Immigrant spewed. They did not pay heed to the &#039;immigrants at our pleasure,&#039; did they?

So, Malaysians have come a long way. We now reject racist politics. If Malays can speak up against the stupidity of using ISA against RPK and Teresa, why shouldn&#039;t the MCA and GERAKAN? Why shouldn&#039;t MIC? If Zaid can break ranks and be ready to quit the Crapbinet, why is MCA quiet on Teresa Kok. They are making a lot of noise on Tan because there&#039;s no political debit by doing that.

MCA is a load of bull!

It&#039;s best that you do not contribute to such racist sentiments as well. We all have Malay and Indian friends we would readily help even if we had to put ourselves in harm&#039;s way. So, cut the crap on race.</description>

		<description>kerishamuddinitis,

You are wrong. MCA and Gerakan should not openly side us now as its was a dirty trap set for UMNO to retaliate that the Chineses has group up and make a racial riot. Then they would have the upper hand to impose the curfew at the same time on the pre-text of killing spree is rightful as to protect the &#039;Malay&#039; interest.</description>

		<description>Let us not forget in all of this that our Malay brethren came out to speak the truth and say to the government, BN and UMNO rabble-rousers that no, Teresa did NOT make an issue of the azan call to the faithful at either of the 2 mosques. 

These are our Malay brethren who stand with us on the side of truth, justice and honesty.

Where are you MCA? Where are you GERAKAN on this matter? No, not because you are Chinese but because you MUST stand for truth, justice and honesty. 

You are proving yourselves to once again be the running dogs that you are truly are. Will you allow politics and political obedience to shackle you from doing the right thing? Stand together with the rest of Malaysians and DEMAND that Teresa Kok is freed because the charges are pure lies, trumped-up lies by a desperate party on the verge of implosion! In this instance, our Malay brethren have come forward to protect the interests, dignity and person of a CHINESE WOMAN FALSELY accused of insulting race and religion of the Malays. 

THIS IS THE MALAYSIA WE WANT. And there&#039;s NO PLACE for the likes of you racist scum, MCA &amp; GERAKAN, in the NEW MALAYSIA!</description>

		<description>lakshy Says:
RPK did not insult Islam.
---------------------
zak_hammaad Says:
RP insults Islam for a living and his blog is an example of that. If should have simply stayed away from Islamic topic as he clearly knows nothing of it and perhaps he would have been a free man today!

--------------------
Zak_hammad
Pray, tell me. Have you really read what Raja Petra has written on Islam in his blog? I have - each and every one of them – and I agree with Lakshy: RPK did not insult Islam.

Perhaps you are the type who just swallow everything that your so-called feudal leaders claimed without taking the trouble to read the articles yourself. The days are over when leaders can say that only they know what is best and the rakyat just agree. Are you? Then, I pity you for your pea-sized brain.</description>

		<description>Now UMNO is using provocation on the Chinese. Such as chinese is squatters, send out rumours that non-Malays asking the mosques to tone down the prayers &quot;IZAN Controversy&quot;. Flaming up both chinese and malay side.Boiling up their blood and then just use the needle to burst the ballooning tension, and whalla people are killing each other.

I urged all Chinese &amp; Indians, if you are somehow kill by &#039;Malay&#039; in coming future do not retaliate and stay calm. Stand up and die as a Malaysian. We are not communists or terrorists.</description>

		<description>Does anyone know how to work the nomination of RPK for the 
RAMON MAGSAYSAY Award for public service. RPK should be honoured for his dedication in fighting government abuse and corruption. Let&#039;s get him recorgnised.

		<description>By answering he was also caught in the jam showed not only how stupid he is and still is.
More importantly he showed how arrogance has got into his thinking and opinions.

He has utterly lost the capability to reason , he is a vegetable already and rotting like his club members

if the air you breathe is smelly ...he could be near by.</description>

		<description>Syed Albar always claim that he relied on police intelligence for his actions. When he caused a huge traffic jam in KL and Selangor he caused huge losses to businesses and bad publicity. When cornered, he claimed that he did not know because he himself was caught in the traffic jam.

Now, he is doing the same act again. First he said the ISA was used because of police intelligence. When the stupidity and logic of his action was exposed he disclaimed all responsibility and a new spin to the whole affair.

No wonder in just 1 short year when he was appointed the Home Minister Malaysia has gone into a tailspin what it took Mahathir 22 years to achieve.</description>

		<description>Arresting an innocent rakyat and release one day later is no way to use ISA. Don&#039;t claim you are being nice or generous.

We, the rakyat, demand that ISA to be repeal immediately, not even modified like KTK said. Henceforth, no govt, present or future, can use ISA to arbitrarily arrest anyone they don&#039;t like. If you need, formulate a law to charge people and allow them to defense themselves.

Detaining Teresa Kok, without informing the family that she was being detained, and without anybody knowing where is she, is BARBARIOUS, and if you claim you are not BARBARIOUS, then release her IMMEDIATELY.</description>

		<description>The only PROTECTION we need is from the threat of the present govt and police who is abusing the ISA and arbitrarily arresting innocent rakyats.

The only way I can feel &quot;safe from this govt&quot; is for this govt to resign on block and let PR forms new govt.

The only way I can feel &quot;safe from the police&quot; is for the PDRM to stop allow &quot;this govt&quot; to dictate them to arbitrarily arresting rakyat for their own agenda.

The best  protection we can get IMMEDIATELY is for the botak to resign from minister position as he is the source of threat to all rakyat.</description>

		<description>The Royal Malaysia Police is conducting selective persecution of political opponents and bone-fide reporters. 

This is blatant violation of internation code of conduct for professional law enforcement agency.</description>

		<description>The arrest of RPK, Teresa Kok and Miss Tan Hoon Cheng is a slap on the face of all decent Malaysian and call on all decent Malaysian with a conscience to condemn such barbaric act.   

There are no justifications for their arrest.  If you think RPK has offended islam, why not just charge him in court.  Surely the AG will be delighted to prosecute him to test his legal knowledge and ability!  The only reason you dare not charge him because he has done nothing wrong and you wanted him lock up because he has been exposing all your corruptions, abuse of power and wrongful doings.

The arrest of Teresa Kok and Miss Tan Hoon Cheng is just pure racism and anti-chinese.  What have they done to deserve such draconian actions against them unless you are racist and anti-chinese.

You lie and claim that Teresa Kok was involved in the mosque petition based on that racist KHIR TOYO&#039;s blog and now the mosque has come out to say that she was not involved in the petition.  By falsely using the name of your islam religion to detain her, you have shown no respect to islam and the Agung.  Let us hope Agung as head of the islamic religion, will condemn those who treat islam with disrespect.  

We demand that she be released immediately since the mosque has confirmed that she was not involved in the petition and hope that the people of that mosque will find the courage and sense of righteousness to petition to the government to release her and to restore the integrity of their islamic religion.  If you don&#039;t, the non-muslims will always have a negative view of your islamic religion. 

Although Miss Tan Hoon Cheng has now been released, there was no justification for her arrest in the first place.  It was very crystal clear that she was just doing her duty as a reporter, to report the speech by that racist Ahmad Ismail.  What is wrong in reporting a public speech unless you are a racist all out to humiliate the chinese?

You also claimed that her arrest was for her own protection.  The last time I check, when DSAI was arrested, his face was badly punched by your goons and swollen and his eye was black?   Was this the kind of protection that you give to the detainee?   By detaining a poor defenseless young lady, you have cause her to suffer severe mental trauma and we demand that you should apologize and compensate her for her mental sufferings.</description>

		<description>KOTA BARU: Those detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) have themselves to blame because they chose to ignore racial and religious sensitivities of the country, said an ex-detainee.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said those detained on Friday had ignored past warnings and history when they chose to propagate disharmony in the society.

The former detainee, who now defends the Act in the context of a greater good, said he realised the benefits of the Act which allows detention without trial for a stipulated period.</description>

		<description>I have a theory.

Obviously ABB isn&#039;t going to be up there for long, and everyone is just waiting to jump on him and take his seat as PM.

Maybe, his next choice of PM, instead of najib or whoeever from UMNO, is actually Anwar? Maybe he has also lost faith in BN through all the internal squabbling and blackmailing that he is willing to forsake his party and give reigns over to PR? Maybe he knows that the moment he steps down as PM his own BN members are going to tear him apart for all the crap that has been done by his son in law? Maybe Anwar has promised ABB no action will be taken against him if PR comes into power?

That&#039;s why ABB and Anwar hardly criticise each other, and maybe that&#039;s why Anwar is seeking an audience with ABB? I mean, I think even UMNO isn&#039;t that stupid to use ISA so blatantly to the extent of arresting the female reporter, especially at this juncture in Malaysian history where public sentiment is very much against the government and abuse of power. They know that such blatant use of the ISA will only further erode BN&#039;s popularity and credibility. Maybe it&#039;s just part of ABB&#039;s strategy of weakening BN? Maybe muhhydin knows it, that&#039;s why he is asking ABB to step down? 

If not, I really don&#039;t see how Anwar can be so confident of 916, eventhough I pray for it to happen everyday.

Just maybe, but if my prediction is correct, I should switch jobs and become a political analyst instead lol</description>

		<description>Who is the Home Minister trying to kid? Ask him to tell it to a dog and i am sure it would be barking ferociously and if it could laugh, it might die laughing at his stupidity.

Mr Home Minister and maybe the Prime Minister whom i give (maybe) the benefit of the doubt, you are  UTTERLY DISGRACEFUL in the eyes of all right thinking and peace loving Malaysians regardless of race or colour. Pls. go before you bring further disgrace to Malaysia. We don&#039;t need people like you around anymore, so &#039;moronic&#039; in your thinking.

By the way, i think you may just be around for another 3 days in Putrajaya and you be on the other side of the bench in Parliament come the next Parliament sitting. U need house-moving services?</description>
