Since the publication in Mingguan Malaysia yesterday of Awang Selamat’s editorial “Melayu sokong DAP?” reeking with racist poison and incitement, the question many Malaysians ask is why the police has not lodged police report against Mingguan Malaysia and Awang Selamat for sedition and to initiate police investigations when the police could lodge a police report against DAP Secretary-General and Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng for his speech at the Pakatan Rakyat national convention in Shah Alam last month.
Malaysians want to know whether the police are guilty of double standards, especially when Guan Eng had clearly not committed any sedition when he referred to the mysterious death of Teoh Beng Hock at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Shah Alam on July 16 last year, while the Awang Selamat editorial in the Mingguan Malaysia clearly violated the Sedition Act in seeking to incite racial animosities and hatred with its spiel of seditious lies and falsehood as alleging that DAP is anti-Malay and wants to abolish the Malay monarchy by establishing a republic.
This is a question that the Home Minister, Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein and the Inspector-General of Police, Tan Sri Musa Hassan should account to the Malaysian people – whether the police are guilty of double standards.
Awang Selamat’s editorial in the Mingguan Malaysia yesterday is also a clear challenge of Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s 1Malaysia slogan and concept.
Let it be a test-case for the Cabinet meeting on Wednesday as to whether there are Ministers – Umno, MCA, Gerakan, MIC, Sabah and Sarawak – who have the courage of conviction to speak up to make it clear that there is zero-tolerance for inflammatory incitement like Awang Selamat’s editorial of poison, lies and sedition in Najib’s 1Malaysia and the full support of the Cabinet for the strongest action to be taken against Awang Selamat and Mingguan Malaysia.
Utusan Malaysia’s editorial today is entitled: “Tunjukkan ketegasan dalam menangani isu sensitif”. Let the Cabinet Ministers and the Police demonstrate its “ketegasan” in dealing with sensitive issues as far as Awang Selamat and Umno’s Utusan newspapers are concerned.

“…..….if he is not fit for that position….get someone else who could perform better or achieve a greater degree of success” cintanegara
Tell that to your UMNO masters, cintanegara. For over 30 years we have not had meritocracy, and the way forward for UMNO had always been to hound those “who could perform better” out of Bolehland. That’s why we could not perform better, and that’s why UMNO has to resort to sloganeering to hoodwink the rural folks into believing that we have achieved “a greater degree of success”.

UMNO love to see Malaysians treat them as… Lords..Master of all..and we are their subjects.
Malaysians treat UMNO as nobody.. hypocrites and bullies.
UMNO hope Malaysians get scare stiff…without the self appointed …to protect his race.
His race is feeling so shameful that UMNO stoop so low…keep playing..dirty race and religion politics.
Time have changed.
We are living in concrete jungle…space age…internet..no way..UMNO can fool mighty voters anymore…except using the present power given to them…by voters…to keep on drumming out dirty tactics to stay in control.
Controlling the country…UMNO still is….but with majority disobedient Malaysians…waiting for 13th GE..to vote them out.
They are corrupted people….trying to avoid being voted out and go to jail.
So it is not funny…good guys get nothing…..because these bad guys stole everything.

By raising this question of asking why our police did not lodge report against Awang Selamat but his son, Lim has violated the social contracts by questioning the right of the Malay. He is implying that the police force, whom are formed by majority of Malay, are racially biased. He also implies that it is wrong when Awang Selamat was defending the rights and position of the Malay, which are clearly and undisputedly provided in the Constitutions. Lim Kit Siang is the one provoking racial issue and not anyone else. Awang Selamat’s article is based on fact and truth. The supreme position of the Malay must not be challenged and all other races must always respect the concept of Malay dominance. Any means trying to question the validity of Malay dominance or Malay Supremacy is considered violation of the social contracts and should be prosecuted under the Sedition Act. I am not surprised if Lim goes to the jail again.

Kasim Amat,
The concept of Malay dominance does not give you any unchallengeable rights or license to apply offical brutality or to apply extra-judicial killings unto the witnesses or the criminal suspects!

Kasim Amat can dream on Malay dominance….as majority Muslims do not wish to be spoon fed..and known as Malays….but…as Malaysians.
A Malaysian Malaysia is real and Kasim Amat need to change his racist character or else…cannot fit into modern society…go back to the kampong and be a farmer or fisherman.
Wake up..he will be saved.
Keep dreaming…he is a gone case racist fool…an he needs to thank Mahathir for that.

Sex desires see no deaths..unless the death is your direct love one.
Be respectful…and practical and continue your usual lifestyle.
Use your commonsense and your sweetheart to guide you….do or not do…up to her……..hahahahahahaha

Maybe Kasim Amat must demand this dominance culture to spread to all over ASEAN, later maybe ASIA, then the WORLD?
#12 by cheng on on Wednesday, 27 January 2010 - 9:52 pm
Well, this Kasim Amat must also demand the “dominance” in paying tax, this Kasim race must demand that he pay more taxes too? Maybe this Kasim only use product/ services/food, etc produced by superior race only. Do not eat food produced by minority, seek service (repair car, medical treatment, sit in any aeroplane piloted by, etc etc) from minorities etc.

Kasim Amat: “By raising this question of asking why our police did not lodge report against Awang Selamat but his son, Lim has violated the social contracts by questioning the right of the Malay.”
If the police can take action against the Penang CM for referring to TBH’s mysterious death in a speech but unable to act against Awang Selamat for writing seditious allegations against DAP in a newspaper, it would appear that the rights of the Penang CM is being violated due to double standards.
Kasim Amat: “He is implying that the police force, whom are formed by majority of Malay, are racially biased.”
It appears that the police is biased towards the side of UMNO’s BN.
Kasim Amat: “He also implies that it is wrong when Awang Selamat was defending the rights and position of the Malay, which are clearly and undisputedly provided in the Constitutions.”
If Awang Selamat believes that DAP is working against the special rights and position of the Malays as stated in the Federal Constitution, he should not just write about it but also take legal action, which includes reporting this to the police while furnishing proof.
Kasim Amat: “Lim Kit Siang is the one provoking racial issue and not anyone else. Awang Selamat’s article is based on fact and truth.”
Again, the burden of proof is on Awang Selamat. Wasn’t that article of his based on the issue of race?
Kasim Amat: “The supreme position of the Malay must not be challenged and all other races must always respect the concept of Malay dominance.”
What is actually supreme and dominant is the Federal Constitution. Special position and rights to a community does not make it dominant or supreme to other communities.
Kasim Amat: “Any means trying to question the validity of Malay dominance or Malay Supremacy is considered violation of the social contracts and should be prosecuted under the Sedition Act.”
Like in the dominance of the ‘Aryan race’ or like in ‘white supremacists’?
Kasim Amat: “I am not surprised if Lim goes to the jail again.”
It seems UMNO’s BN has not totally shaken off the temptation to use ISA as means to suppress its political opponents…
