#6 by Godfather on Thursday, 22 April 2010 - 1:25 pm
They try very hard to project an anti-Jewish stance, but everywhere we go, we see their cooperation with the Jews. They use Jewish firms like Goldman Sachs and Rothschilds to manage their money. They pay a Jewish firm RM77 million to provide public relations services for ONE year. They link up with the Jewish lobby in Washington DC to lobby for meetings with the US president.
These people are all hypocrites of the highest order.

As a neutral observer, I have to agree many regards this 1 Malaysia as a hypocrisy in itself. Many of those that I know are very skeptical about the achievement of 1 Malaysia. I respect their opinion and also feeling in saying this. It is right to say that, Sabah/Sarawak people for example feel inferior when their counterparts in semenanjung are ignorant of them being part of Malaysia. Some who came to semenanjung would be greeted sth like “oo, is this your first time in malaysia?” helloooooo, we r malaysians!!!
Anyway, what i want to say here is that, change to embracing the values/principles endow in 1 Malaysia is something that i optimistically feel can be achieved. A leader is one who is able to bring about change. However, there is nothing more difficult to undertake, more perilous to conduct or more uncertain in its success than introducing change (Maxwell, 1993). And 1Malaysia is the proof that its noble intention is not easy.
#8 by Bigjoe on Thursday, 22 April 2010 - 1:33 pm
No is explaining to LKS his main point. Why the orgy about linking 1Malaysia with 1Israel? The more the orgy, the more Anwar is winning.
The saying ‘the better part of valour, is to walk away’.. applies to this situation for UMNO/BN. Getting a hissy fit over Anwar egg is the dumb thing to do. It only confirms one thing – Anwar is the the most talented Malay politician in this country and hence the rightful heir to the PM job.
Honestly, this whole thing smells and looks of a political orgy – hormones run wild and brain lost in perversion.
#9 by dagen on Thursday, 22 April 2010 - 2:05 pm
If you dont have the answer what do you do? Immediately engage in mass orgy. Flash our your ketuanan and begin the orgy session en block. Preferably with someone to direct the session for max effect. Nazri can do that. But hey he too wants to participate in the fun part and not just the directing part. Well what the heck. Forget the director. All of umno are welcome to join in the orgy. Sama sama kita orgy beramai-ramai. Yeah.

1Malaysia and the plunder continues….RM 8 billion for a prototype and perhaps the Israelis had something to do with the design ?
KUALA LUMPUR (April 22, 2010): Opposition leaders are urging the government to review and cancel the contract to purchase 257 8×8 Armoured-Wheeled Vehicle (8×8 AWV) for an “astronomical” amount of RM8 billion.
“We would like to state upfront that we are disgusted by the transaction. The amount is shocking as each of these non-combat vehicles is priced at a ridiculous RM31.1 million,” said Tony Pua (DAP-PJ Utara).
On Tuesday, DRB-Hicom Defence Technologies Sdn Bhd (Deftech)’s chairman Datuk Seri Mohd Khamil Jamil announced at a press conference during the 12th Defence Services Asia 2010 Exhibition that the government has given Deftech a letter of intent, entrusting it to develop the 8×8 AWV programme with the support of the Defence Ministry, Malaysian Army and the Malaysian Defence Industry Council.
“We have an order for 257 8×8 AWV units but right now, we are going to come up with the prototypes meant for testing purposes by the army before we develop the whole range of armoured vehicles,” Mohd Khamil was quoted saying.
Pua said the amount was shocking as other armoured vehicles in other countries cost far less.
“The Portugese army bought 353 Pandur II 8×8 armoured vehicles for the amout of 364 million euros (RM1.56billion) or an average of 1.03 million euros or only RM4.41 million each.
“In 2009, the U.S Army has awarded a US$2.2 billion contract to General Dynamics Land Systems-Canada, one of the best military vehicle and equipment manufacturer in the world for 724 Light Armoured vehicles (LAV) equivalent of USD$3.04 million or only RM9.9million each meant for Saudi Arabia.
“Even the best-in-class main battle tank produced in the United States, M1Abrams M1A2 deployed extensively in Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Australia cost only US$6.1 million or approximately RM19.7 million.
“Despite the price-tag, Deftech admits that they are only at the stage of developing a prototype. The prototype hasn’t been tested but the contract is already out” Pua told reporters at Parliament lobby today.
Pua also said the Barisan Nasional government is “clearly missing the woods for the trees” in the financial management of the country.
“At the same time when the Ministry of Finance has issued strict treasury circulars for all ministries to reduce their operational expenditure by as much as 20%, the Ministry (of Defence) commits to a purchase that completely mocks the attempt by the government to be thrifty,” said Pua.
“We hope the Ministry of Defence will now inform us that this is another decimal point error in the contract value,” said Pua jokingly. — theSun

Each of the 8×8 Armoured-Wheeled Vehicle costs RM31.1 million AFTER commission is paid. BEFORE commission, they cost only RM3.11 million each. Any Mongolian model involved as “translator” in the deal? And the lucky middleman is……
#14 by DCLXVI on Thursday, 22 April 2010 - 3:14 pm
This is what happens when the central federal government continues to be dominated by Peninsular based politics and politicians. Is it because Umno does not want to lose its dominance in the BN coalition and continues to lord over Sabah & Sarawak based politicians in the coalition?
It’s true that ‘1 Malaysia’ has been promoted in a public relations style as a noble intention, but when it was obvious that the people behind it also include the likes of Nasir Safar, the people naturally began to doubt the sincerity behind this perceived noble intention, and began to regard it more and more like some publicity stunt in order to garner more votes for Umno-BN.
Yes, it’s hard for a leopard to lose its spots…

NEP has failed in its objective to uplift the standard of living, but BN/UMNO dare not dismantle it for fear of suffering a back-lash.
Malaysia is terminally ill, and there is no cure for the kind of sickness that the country is suffering.
NEM will not help, and could make things worst, because the culture of cheating and robbing is already deep-rooted.
The lukewarm acceptance of “1-Malaysia” is being savored with unpalatable ingredients, including the APCO issues, and the bad display of support by the DPM.
In the meantime, BN/UMNO continue to rob and plunder the economy dry. How long can this country survive before we succumb to a total economic collapse? Politically, it is a “time-bomb”.
Ringgit will soon lose its value, and BSKL will have to close shop when investors move to Singapore.

For this issue, PR should check with the American side to see if the visiting of N and his meeting with Obama were arranged through APCO.
Obama has said he wanted to avoid the lobbyists. It would be a serious problem if APCO was in between the White House and N’s government
#17 by Godfather on Thursday, 22 April 2010 - 3:44 pm
All this nonsense was designed to distract Pakatan from bringing out the real issues afflicting this country: 1Malaysia not being subscribed by Najib’s deputy (and many more such UMNOputras), the PKFZ scandal being swept under the carpet, the Scorpene scandal resurfacing in France, the new defence contracts being awarded without tender, intimidatory tactics being applied under the TBH scandal….
We are not going to be distracted. PR will go all out to ensure victory in Hulu Selangor and to give a tight slap to Mr Moo and his newfound sidekick Kam Lan.

Just saw on Malaysiakini report that Mahathir may show up in Hulu Selangor. If so, the hot atmosphere just got explosive.

Najib said:
“Gagasan 1Malaysia lebih popular daripada jenama seperti Milo, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)… tak boleh lawan lencana dan logo 1Malaysia sebab ada orang suka makan ayam, ada yang tak suka tapi 1Malaysia semua orang suka,” kata beliau dipetik Bernama.
Do you agree with what he said?

“Kita reject dia (Zaid) sajalah, kita pilih BN biar kita kekalkan dia sebagai barang reject,” kata Perdana Menteri ketika berucap di bilik gerakan BN Hulu Bernam malam tadi.

If the Indians in HS vote for BN, then they deserve to be where they are – downtrodden, despised, murdered in custody, marginalized and described as beggars.
Let them go to hell. If they want some hope for their future then they have to try Pakatan for a change.
As for the Chinese, my hats off to them, they will ensure Zaid wins because they are an intelligent race and kno how to weigh the pros and cons.
As for the Malays, There are many wise ones, but, by and large they change side like chameleons. Just look at the frogs and see how they change their principles.
I have seen Malays condemning UMNO like hell and then crossing over to join UMNO.
One of them is a highly educated neurosurgeon. Wonder how their mind works.
However, my greatest respects go to PAS Malays. They have high moral stand and integrity.
The scums are in UMNO and some remnants in PKR.

On the bright side in looking over all things…Najib and his bunch of desperate crooks are daily talking cock and bull…and having Mahathir at Hulu Selangor shows all the top guns..the no good ..always bad and ugliest one…all need to chip in and help.
Yes…having the ugliest …the dirtiest….best UMNO liar…like Mahathir to help in the by election…shows no one know what is the right thing to do for UMNO BARU now.as there is no signs showing things are done well by them.
I cannot help laughing over Najib’s speech at Hulu Selangor …saying he cut short the oversea trip….to PREFER be with Hulu Selangor folks.
Go read his speech and you can at once detect…what a liar and hypocrite he is. He brag…how much Obama respected him. he forgot Madame Albright said.USA will always support Anwar Ibrahim. Why don’t he complaint and see how Obama respond. So he play diplomacy and think Obama play it straight to him? Also diplomacy la.
Let Mahathir go to Hulu Selangor. I will not be surprised.. to see few hundred being paid to hero worship him….but if al things been fair..and truthful..then Mahathir should receive few rotten eggs thrown at him.

If the unity of all Malaysians is the actual basis behind ‘1 Malaysia’, it should not then be compared to a commercial brand like Milo or KFC because our nation’s unity cannot be bought or sold like some product on the market.
Of course, there are people who like to eat chicken and there are those who don’t, but has the PM ever spared a thought for those who cannot even afford to have chicken as their meal because of poverty?
How can this still be after 40 years of NEP which is supposed to eradicate poverty?

Admiral Chengho was a great ambassador of China and a man of integrity and values. This ‘chengho’ here is quite the opposite, a slimy slittering snake. Use another name that’s more appriopiate to your nature, maybe something like — mahathir? nazri? najib? ibrahim ali? Do not use a good name in vain.

Anwar is our savior. God has chosen him to save Malaysia from going to the dogs.
God has also decided that Zaid will win the HS by-election, and Zaid will be the future PM.

Mahathir and Najib are trying so hard to make Anwar non existence and Chengho is their low class mouth piece. I suspect Chengho also afraid he will loose his job….if Anwar becomes PM.
LKS blog have tons of his materials to look out for him…and sent him to Timbuktu…after 13th GE.
