The results of the Makhota by-election in Kluang on Saturday, following the victory of the Unity Government in Nenggiri by-election in Kelantan, signifies three things:
Firstly, Malaysians want stability as nobody benefits from a chaotic and unstable Malaysia – with no investor, particularly a foreign investor, wanting to invest in such a Malaysia.
Secondly, there is only one end result for a chaotic and unstable Malaysia – a failed state. It is not the road for Malaysia to rise again to become a great world-class nation.
Thirdly, the end of the Green Wave in Malaysia, where extremism, hatred, lies, misinformation and disinformation ruled the day. Read the rest of this entry »

In the United States, a great campaign is going on to decide in the next 90 days who will be the President of United States. Until some three weeks ago, there was nothing to watch was it was a battle between two old men. Now there is hope and vision for America, and the Democratic Candidate Kamala Harris has coined the slogan “We are not going back. We are going into the future.” Read the rest of this entry »
Encore Melaka Theatre with its 2,000-seat revolving auditorium a marvel in South-East Asia and must be experienced by every Malaysian and global citizen

I am very impressed by Encore Melaka Theatre, with its 2,000-seat revolving auditorium, which is a marvel in South-East Asia and must be experienced by every Malaysian and global citizen.
I had not expected to be immersively assaulted by the sights, sounds, lights and colours of the Encore Melaka Theatre, and although the story-line can be improved further, it is an experience not to be missed. Read the rest of this entry »

Two years before Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim published his book “The Asian Renaissance” in 1996, he responded to Samuel Huntington’s theory of “Clash of Civilisations” at the Georgetown University convocation in Washington in October 1994 and called for civilisational dialogue between East and West.
He said: “The question , however. is not whether civilizations will necessarily clash, rather whether civilizations ought to clash”. Read the rest of this entry »

I am disappointed by the Sungai Bakap by-election result yesterday, as I had hoped that following the Unity Government’s victory at the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election, we can also win in Sungai Bakap and embark on the task of making Malaysia a great world-class nation again.
Romen Bose was writing hogwash when he said I was trying to “rebuild the Chinese population” during the Pakatan Harapan administration and even claimed that I was “quite successful”
Posted by Kit in Civilisational Dialogue, PH Government on Tuesday, 2 July 2024, 9:25 am
Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s former political consultant Romen Bose was writing hogwash when he said I was trying to “rebuild the Chinese population” during the Pakatan Harapan administration from 2018-2000 and even claimed that I was “quite successful” in my endeavour.
The DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke was right to dismiss Romen Bose’s claims as the thought that Najib’s ex-aide attributed to me never occurred to me, and I do not know what he was talking about with his further claim that my endeavour was “quite successful”. Read the rest of this entry »

Karpal Singh has left many legacies — the rule of law, justice, good governance, and diversity of Malaysia as a land of many peoples, religions, and cultures.
Can Malaysia make a distinctive contribution to global inter-religious, inter-cultural and inter-civilisational dialogue, understanding and harmony?

Malaysia needs more towering Malaysians like Karpal Singh to save the nation from the fate of a failed, divided and kleptocratic state.
Karpal has inspired Malaysians on justice, the rule of law, human rights and good governance as seen by the large crowds at two events to commemorate the tenth anniversary of his untimely passing a decade ago — the Karpal Singh Legacy Walk at Persiaran Karpal Singh and the Honouring Karpal Singh Forum — both in Penang yesterday.

The two memorials for former Selangor State Assemblywoman Lee Kee Hiong — one last Monday by the cultural group in KKB and the other by the people of all races and religions in KKB on Thursday night — were history-making, as well as the two DAP branches in Hulu Selangor formed by Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) veterans.

Karpal Singh is a towering Malaysian whose commitment and dedication to justice, the rule of law and good governance must be borne by the new generation of Malaysians.
The next three to four years will decide whether Malaysia will rise again to become a global role model and a great world-class nation or whether we are condemned to be a divided, failed, and kleptocratic state

End of Wayang Kulit to topple Anwar as Prime Minister and time to replace the Malay Narrative which had produced five Prime Ministers in five years with a Malaysian Narrative to unite the country, reverse the national decline in the last quarter of a century and make Malaysia a great world-class nation

There was a prolonged Wayang Kulit to topple Anwar Ibrahim as the 10th Prime Minister but this has come to an end and it is time to replace the Malay Narrative which has produced five Prime Ministers in five years with a Malaysian Narrative to unite the country, to reverse the national decline in the last quarter of a century and make Malaysia a great world-class nation.

The founder of Vision 2020 and Bangsa Malaysia, Tun Mahathir Mohamad did the greatest disservice to both concepts this week when he questioned the loyalty of the Indian Malaysians and Chinese Malaysians to the country.
The “Save Bukit China” campaign 40 years ago is a challenge to the races, religions, and cultures in Malaysia to use their wisdom and expertise for Malaysia to reverse the national decline for a quarter of a century to rise up again a great world-class nation
