		<description>The monkey in question still cannot accept the fact that he cannot tell the difference between a stone and a flower. He thought the flower was something to be trifled it and instantly roughed it up thinking it was a stone. The monkey stupidly believes his equally stupid nick which is nothing but a lot of bull and hot air can just ride roughshod over things! Raja Petra, the most ardent believer in freedom of expression, allowing all kinds of radical views, even saw it fit to ban this monkey. Raja Petra had even tolerated all his nonsense and idiocy in Malaysia Today when the rambled about his exploits in Hadyai (by the way he had none) when the serious discussion was on politics in Penang! He could not even tell the difference between  Seenivasagam and Sambanthan, can&#039;t spell even spell the names of Bapak Malaysia and Gerakan president Lim Keng Yaik correctly to depict them as someone else to MT readers! Worse still he thought he was Elvis Presley&#039;s fan when gave all the wrong facts of Elvis&#039; popular songs in Jailhouse Rock and King Creole! He created so much trouble in MT that Raja Petra was forced to send him to the swimming pool for a fight to the finish with some of many enemies who had challenged him there. Did he say he did not run away from a fight? His balls shrank and he did not know where to put his face.

Still what can you expect from monkeys who continue to make mischief in seeking cheap publicity like this 70 year old senile monkey is doing?</description>

		<description>Even a kid can see through this Unity talk nonsense. It only shows how lame PAS is to even entertain this. Even the pathetic claims of &quot;bringing PKR and DAP etc in&quot; is silly. To opposition party members who can suddenly run over and entertain BN, they must really think their voters are morons. Why would anyone vote for an opposition party if they knew they would jump over to the very thing that their voters had voted against? There is no academic arguments over this - frogs and likewise are simply betrayers of their voters. 1 + 1 = 2. And unity talks = mass frog migration. What is there to debate?</description>

		<description>Of course Najib is just trying to stir trouble. and its not just him. I think most people notice that either BN leaders keep getting asked to comment on this and when they do, they seem very pleased to answer them. The grin on Najib and BN leaders faces are just like after they indulge in guilty pleasures like having anal sex with a Mongolian slut.

The issue really is that even after Nik Aziz put a nail into the zombie-brained who support the idea, the zombie refuses to die. What PAS must answer is given BN confidence in messing with them why is PAS take so lightly the ability of BN to split PR and its not just this issue. Elizabeth Wong fracas came to mind, challenging Khalid in Selangor with all sort of issues, etc. etc..

Its an opportunity to get all PR component party to renew comittment to the alliance. Nik Aziz has just given a renewed commitment on his part, Anwar also need to step up and promised better disciplined and line-up in PKR and the least DAP need to do is apologise for fielding Hee in Perak and being part of the mess.</description>

		<description>Najib&#039;s tango with pas to cause split in pakatan? Yes of course that is so obvious. In fact it is so obvious that I dont think that it can be called a tango at all. To me it is a strip tease dance performed solo by him. And he was quite naked.

(saucy music)
(saucy music) 
&quot;Oi de balls. Where damned balls.&quot; Shouted someone in the audience.

		<description>You must understand that Hadi had tasted power before as Chief Minister of Trengganu.  Now he realises that UMNO is split in Trengganu with the Idris Jusoh and the Mat Said factions.  Hadi thinks that there is a chance of him becoming MB again - what with all the money coming in from oil revenues.  He will dance with the devil if he can regain power, and this time it comes with federal-approved billions under state management.

Power is an intoxicating thing.  Hadi and Nasharuddin should just quit PAS and join UMNO.  That&#039;s the quickest route to personal enrichment.</description>

		<description>Political games are what politicians play at.
The objective is to keep your opponent off-guard and to gain some advantage.
BN has been pretty adept at this after so many years of practice - starting from the time they overturned the Sabah government under Joseph Pairin Kitingan.
The latest episode was the shameful Perak shambles where the ugly scheme was broadcast to the WWW. Hopefully more Malaysians are now aware that if H1N1 does not destroy the nation, the type of government we have now will surely destroy the country.

		<description>The world-wide pandemic of H1N1 virus will also aggravate the recession problem throughout the whole world because World Health Organization (WHO) of the United Nations has already ungraded the travel alert recently and has warned that the pandemic will not be effectively checked within the next two years.

Sorry, the word &quot;ungraded&quot; was a typo error.  The correct word should be &quot;upgraded&quot;!</description>

		<description>The idea of a “Umno-Pas unity government” talks was just a political gimmick for Najib to divert the Malaysian people&#039;s attention from the imperative issue of government financial crisis.

With the economic contraction of 6.2% in Malaysia for the first quarter of 2009, the Malaysian economic performance will most likely report a further contraction of about 6%-8% for the second quarter of 2009.  With such a fast deterioration in the economic performance, many businesses in Malaysia will encounter the serious cash flow liquidity problem.  Many businesses are expected  to be not able to pay the worker&#039;s wages and salaries on time, not to mention about their ability to pay the corporate income taxes promptly to the Inland Revenues Department (IRD) of the Ministry of Finance.  Najib keeps talking positively about the possible time-lagged effect of his Mini Budget but the private sectors of the Malaysia economy have already felt the pain from the big pinch of having to pay high income taxes to the IRD in order for them to lodge beautifully window-dressed financial statements, which show great profitability at the bottom line, to the Registrar of Companies and to the financier bankers for purpose of preventing a loan call-back exercise possibly invoked by the financier bankers.  

No matter what, even with the support of the beautifully window-dressed financial statements, many businesses in the Malaysian private sectors will still have to face the music of being required by the financier bankers to pay back the loan principal at a much earlier stage, as it is usually agreeable for the financier bankers to do so in the bank borrowing agreement.

It was reported that about 2,000 commercial banks in the United States were going to file Chapter 11 (the American Business Law for bankruptcy protection) to the Federal Court of the United States.   Many analysts in the financial market predicted that the American economy would not be able to show a sign of recovery within the next three years.  The market liquidity problem really caused an alarming high unemployment rate in America.  Since the United States is the largest trading partner of Singapore and Malaysia, any set-back in the economic performance of the Americans will surely send a negative signal to both Singapore and Malaysia.

Many analysts commented that since the Currency Crisis of 1997-1998 the Malaysian economy had never achieved a substantial structural reform, which would permit the businesses of Malaysia to endure financial stresses and to safely overcome the attack of a financial Tsunami.  Even though the bank borrowings based on the collateral of company common shares and debentures signed by the Bursar Malaysia member companies might be put under the controllable situation, the huge quantities of bank borrowings which had been given in consideration of the collateral of highly inflated land-based properties would never help much in the improvement of operating efficiency of many manufacturers, agricultural enterprises and service industry operators in Malaysia.  The world-wide pandemic of  H1N1 virus will also aggravate the recession problem throughout the whole world because World Health Organization (WHO) of the United Nations has already ungraded the travel alert recently and has warned that the pandemic will not be effectively checked within the next two years.  If the commercial banks in Malaysia have to start a loan call-back exercise in order to solve the banks&#039; own internal cash flow problem, then the Domino Theory is going to effectively happen again in relation to the financial fallout of Malaysia&#039;s businesses.    

In view of the current big financial stresses being faced by both the Government and the private sectors of Malaysia, it is no wonder why Najib as a PM cum Finance Minister has to spend so much precious time on non-productive activities like trying to divert people&#039;s attention to other less important non-economic issues such as proposing the idea of &quot;Umno-PAS unity government&quot; talks.</description>

		<description>TomThumb,

Not all the PAS leaders are ulamaks. Some are professionals. Many people think that deputy PAS president Nasharudin is an ulamak, but in fact he is a professional. So is Mustapha Ali. So the professionals in this case do not believe they are consorting with sinners or kafirs like what many ulamaks call UMNO leaders when they initiated these unity talks. Even Hadi does not feel those UMNO leaders who want to engage PAS in the unity talks are sinners, so long as they uphold the Malay and Islamic agenda. PAS also wants to make use of UMNO as leverage to bargain with Keadilan and DAP. But only Hadi, Nasharudin and Mustapha&#039;s group condone this. Nik Aziz, Husam Musa, Khalid Samad, Sabu all oppose talks with corrupt UMNO leaders and they want to finish UMNO off in the next GE. The line between the professionals and ulamaks is very blur now, because many professionals have become religious. One good example is Nizar Jamaluddin, the rightful Perak MB who has shown that his religiosity in fact complements his fight for all Perakians and Malaysians, a potential future PM in the making.</description>
