Support for Anwar in his plan for confidence vote in Parliament on Dec. 19 as Hadi is trying to create another Sheraton Move conspiracy to topple the Anwar Ibrahim premiership

(Versi BM)

I support the proposal by the Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim to have a vote of confidence motion in Parliament on December 19, 2022 as the PAS President, Hadi Awang is trying to create another Sheraton Move conspiracy to topple the Anwar Ibrahim premiership.

Hadi has claimed he masterminded the Sheraton Move conspiracy which toppled the first Pakatan Harapan government after 22 months in Feb. 2020, and the first step of the Sheraton Move conspiracy was the issue of the ratification of International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD).

Hadi Awang has violated the Rukun Negara in his post-15GE diatribe against the DAP — in particular four of the five Rukun Negara principles

(Versi BM)

I am as surprised as anybody else at the latest diatribe against the DAP by the PAS President, Hadi Awang, accusing the “creedless and immoral DAP” of Islamophobia.

He has violated Rukun Negara in his post-15GE diatribe against the DAP — in particular four of the five Rukun Negara principles on loyalty to King and country, Supremacy of the Constitution, the Rule of Law and Courtesy and Morality.

Can all political coalitions and parties agree that Malaysia should be the first nation in the world to deal with the bane of the information era — the toxic politics of lies, fear, hate, race, and religion?

(Versi BM)

The 15th General Election on November 19, 2022 has given rise to an “unity government” but can all political coalitions and political parties agree that Malaysia should be the first nation in the world to deal with the bane of the information era — the toxic politics of lies, fear, hate, race, and religion — which could destroy Malaysia or reduce it to a third-rate, failed, and divided nation in another three or four decades?

There is no guarantee that the task for a national reset by returning to the nation-building principles the nation’s founding fathers enshrined in the Malaysian Constitution and the Rukun Negara will succeed nor is it a mission which could be accomplished by one Prime Minister or in one general election, as it will take three or four decades.

My 15GE theme “Malaysia is save-able; Malaysia is worth saving” vindicated — but are Malaysians prepared to take next step and unite on a Common Agenda for the next five years?

The swearing-in of Anwar Ibrahim as the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia marked the end of a 24-year struggle of pain, suffering and sacrifice by one principled and soulful person and vindicated my election theme in the 15,000-kilometre journey throughout Malaysia in the two-week 15th General Election campaign that “Malaysia is save-able; Malaysia is worth saving”.

Despite a five-day high-tension political uncertainty, the impasse was resolved with a government comprising Pakatan Harapan-Barisan Nasional-Gerakan Parti Sarawak (GPS)-Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS)-Warisan and an Opposition led by Perikatan Nasional.

DAP’s 24-year commitment to back Anwar all the way to bring about a Better Malaysia

When the Yang di Pertuan Agong consented to appoint Anwar Ibrahim as the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia, I texted him my congratulations.

Anwar phoned to thank me and I took the opportunity to tell him that his task as the 10th Prime Minister is to make Malaysia great again.

Malaysia needs a new leader who can lead the country to punch beyond its weight in world affairs but not for the wrong reason as when we became “kleptocracy at its worst” recently.

(Versi BM)

Malaysia has fallen from its expectations on the formation of Malaysia to be a first-rate great world-class nation and has become a second-rate mediocre country after six decades and in danger of becoming a third-rate failed, divided and kleptocratic state on Malaysia Centennial in another four decades.

Call for a “Save Malaysia Coalition” of all political coalitions and political parties to restore Malaysia as a first-rate world-class nation instead of slipping to second-rate mediocre country now after six decades and in danger of ending up as a failed, divided and kleptocratic state on Malaysia’s Centennial

(Versi BM)

I call for a “Save Malaysia Coalition” of all political coalitions and political parties to restore Malaysia as a first-rate world-class nation instead of slipping to second-rate mediocre country today after six decades and in danger of ending up as a failed, divided and kleptocratic state on Malaysia’s Centennial.

In the sacred mission to Save Malaysia to restore the nation to a first-rate world-class nation status instead of ending up as a failed, divided and kleptocratic nation on Malaysia’s Centennial, there can be no neutrality by patriotic Malaysians.

There should be no abduction of the process of parliamentary democracy and the new era of coalition politics in Malaysia should start on the right foot to realise Bapa Malaysia Tunku Abdul Rahman’s hope for Malaysia to be “a beacon of light in the difficult and distracted world”

(Versi BM)

In the last 24 hours, the Malaysian Dream for Malaysia to undo the failures of nation-building the last six decades and to restore Malaysia’s place among the great nations in the world instead of becoming a second-rate mediocre country and slipping further to become a third-rate failed, divided and kleptocratic state in four decades’ time has sprung back to life.

On 19th November, 2022, the 15th General Election result was testimony that despite disappointments, Malaysians inside the country and all over the world have not given up their aspiration for Malaysia to learn from the mistakes of six decades of nation-building so that Malaysia can again become a great world-class plural nation.

Anwar Ibrahim as the leader with the biggest bloc of MPs who won the 15GE should be given the first chance to form the Federal Government in Putrajaya before others or Malaysia will not practising parliamentary democracy

(Versi BM)

Anwar Ibrahim, as the leader of the biggest bloc of Members of Parliament who won the 15th General Election, should be given the first chance to form the Federal Government in Putrajaya before others or Malaysia will not be practising parliamentary democracy.

Anwar should be given a time-frame to form the Federal Government, and if he is unable to get more than 112 MPs to support him, which is a simple majority in Parliament, only then should the Yang di Pertuan Agong ask the another candidate to try to form the Federal Government.

Ten Questions to be answered by the Malaysians voting in the 15GE today

Ten questions to be answered by the Malaysians voting in the 15th General Election today are:

  1. Whether the voting turnout today can exceed 80%.
  2. Whether Anwar Ibrahim will be the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia.
  3. Whether Pakatan Harapan on its own can form the Federal Government in Putrajaya beating the two other coalitions — UMNO/Barisan and Perikatan Nasional of Bersatu and PAS.
  4. Whether Malaysia can be saved and worth saving.
  5. Whether Malaysia will stop its descent from a first-rate world-class nation in the last six decades into a second-rate mediocre country today and worse still, continued descent into a third-rate failed, divided, rogue, and kleptocratic nation by Malaysia’s Centennial in four decades or whether Malaysia can reverse the fate and trajectory of a failed, divided, rogue and kleptocratic state in the next four decade and to become again a first-rate world-class plural nation.
  6. Whether Malaysia can return to the original nation-building principles to be found in the Constitution and Rukun Negara — constitutional monarchy, parliamentary democracy, separation of powers, rule of law, good governance, public integrity, meritocracy, respect for human rights, and national unity from our multi-racial, multi-lingual, multi-religious, and multi-cultural diversity where there are no first-class and second-class citizens whether based on race, religion or region.
  7. Whether UMNO can be saved and reject the Najib Razak and Zahid Hamidi’s legacy of kleptocracy and kakistocracy, and return to the original ideals and principles of UMNO as espoused the first four UMNO Presidents, Onn Jaafar, Tunku Abdul Rahman, Razak Hussein and Hussein Onn who all condemned corruption, abuse of public power and breach of trust of public officials.
  8. Whether Malaysia can be one of the top 30 countries of the world in terms of having a clean and honest government and minimal corruption in public life.
  9. Whether Malaysia can continue be way ahead of other countries, like China, Indonesia, India and Middle East countries in the annual Transparency International (TI) Corruption Perception Index (CPI) and not be overtaken by China before 2030 and by Indonesia, India and the Middle East countries by before 2040.
  10. Whether Malaysia can succeed in creating a Bangsa Malaysia, not by eliminating ethnic or religious identities whether Malay, Chinese, Indian, Dayak, Kadazan, or Islamic, Buddhist, Hindu or Christian but by celebrating our diverse ethnic, linguistic, religious, and cultural identities under one large rubric of a Malaysian identity — the great diversity is an asset and strength rather than a liability of Malaysia

Advice to Muhyiddin and Hadi not to be desperadoes and not to go against the teachings of Islam and all great religions not to resort to lies and falsehood just for worldly gains

I arrived in Penang only at 5.30 am this morning.

After logging about 15,000 kilometres in the two-week election campaign since Nomination Day on Nov 5, 2022, covering Penang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor, Pahang, Malacca, Johore, Sabah and Sarawak to campaign for Pakatan Harapan candidates and Pakatan Harapan President Anwar Ibrahim to be made the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia to head a Pakatan Harapan Federal Government in Putrajaya, speaking at two to three ceramahs a night, I took the last flight from Kuala Lumpur to Penang at 11.20 pm yesterday, 16th November 2022.

I was dead tired from the travelling, but I was not deterred, despite my fall in front of the Kota Kinabalu hotel I was staying on Tuesday morning due to my missing one step and was determined to campaign for Pakatan Harapan to Save Malaysia from a failed, divided and rogue state in three or four decades.

Open Letter to the Voters of Malaysia

Pakatan Harapan can win outright, and Anwar Ibrahim become the 10th Prime Minister if Malaysians go all out to vote and achieve over 80 per cent voter turnout on Saturday

I have tried my very best to impress on Malaysian voters in the 15GE to focus on one issue: how to regain Malaysia’s original dream to be a “beacon of light in a difficult and distracted world” as Malaysia has fallen to a second-rate mediocre nation after six decades, and we do not want to be a third-rate failed, divided, rogue, and kleptocratic state by Malaysia’s Centennial.

I missed a step and fell outside my hotel at Kota Kinabalu this morning, but this is small fall compared to the big fall of Malaysia in the last six decades and the bigger fall in three or four decades’ time when Malaysia would fall from a first-rate world-class country to a third-rate failed, rogue and kleptocratic state

I missed a step and fell outside my hotel in Kota Kinabalu this morning, but this is a small fall compared to the big fall Malaysia experienced in the last six decades and the bigger fall in three or four decades’ time when Malaysia would fall from a first-rate world-class country to a third-rate failed, rogue, and kleptocratic state like Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe.

Three persons saw me fall in Kota Kinabalu this morning, but some 10 billion people throughout the world in four decades will see Malaysia fall from a first-rate world-class plural nation sixty years ago to a third-rate failed, rogue, and kleptocratic state in 2060.

Call on Malaysian voters inside and outside the country to ensure that the voter turnout is more than 80% so that Anwar Ibrahim can become the 10th Prime Minister and save Malaysia from becoming a failed, rogue, and kleptocratic state in three or four decades

There are only three days of campaigning left for the 15th General Election as polling is on Saturday, November 19, 2022.

From my visit to various parts of the country it is clear that the wind of change is beginning to blow hard, especially after the dissolution of Parliament on Oct. 10, 2022, and the velocity of change took a quantum jump after Nomination Day on Nov. 5, to the extent that the “Court Cluster” in UMNO/BN coalition leadership, headed by their President Zahid Hamidi, is now no more as confident as before that the UMNO/BN coalition would be the clear winner in the 15GE to singly form the Federal Government in Putrajaya.

Zahid is putting up a brave front publicly but, he knows in his heart of hearts that he had dragged down the reputation, popularity and integrity of the UMNO/BN coalition to the lowest level in UMNO history, even to a lower level when UMNO was under the presidency of Najib Razak.
