Is a secular state anti-Malay, anti-Islam, anti-Royalty, or anti-religion?
DAP MP for Kepong Lim Lip Eng has provoked a new round of debate, dissection, and analysis whether Malaysia is a secular state or an Islamic state.
I personally welcome Anwar’s preparedness to accept PAS as part of unity government subject to policy conditions
Posted by Kit in PAS, Unity Government on Sunday, 15 October 2023, 10:31 am
I had not wanted to say anything on the Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim’s Time magazine interview that he does not rule out PAS joining the unity government if policy conditions accepted, but a letter writer in Malaysiakini said this was not a new proposal as I had made it in May, remarking that I had “fallen into the realms of hypocrisy and desperation, sacrificing principles for surface-level stability”.
Call on Malaysians to make Malaysia one of the 20 best countries in the world

As I said at the launching of the Mas Gading Member of Parliament, Mordi Bimol’s Service Centre in Lundu this morning, the Malaysian national anthem, the Sarawak state anthem, and the DAP party anthem have one thing in common — they reflect the diversity and unity of a plural society where the different races, religions, and cultures co-operate and co-exist to create understanding, tolerance, and harmony.
Where will Malaysia be when it celebrates its first Centennial in 2057 in 34 years’ time?
Posted by Kit in nation building on Tuesday, 19 September 2023, 12:03 pm
At a time when Parliament is debating the Report of the Mid-Term Review of the 12th Malaysia Plan, it is appropriate for Malaysians to ask: “Where will Malaysia be when it celebrates its first Centennial in 2057 in 34 years’ time?
In 1991, when the 30-year Vision 2020 was launched to achieve a fully developed country by the year 2020, there were 19 “developed countries” out of more than 160 states.
Mahathir eating his own words by becoming unofficial adviser to the co-operation group of four PAS states
The announcement by the Terengganu Menteri Besar, Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar that the four states of Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu are forming an official co-operation group, with Mahathir Mohamad as its unofficial adviser, reminds me of what Mahathir wrote in his book “Capturing Hope — The Struggle Continues for a New Malaysia” after the 22-month Pakatan Haparan Government, for which he became Prime Minister for the second time, was toppled by the infamous Sheraton Move political conspiracy in February 2020:
Royal Commission of Inquiry as to how the Rukun Negara objectives and principles have been achieved in the last 53 years
Posted by Kit in nation building on Saturday, 16 September 2023, 12:13 pm
There is no better way to mark the 60th Malaysia Day than to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry to ascertain how the Rukun Negara objectives and principles have been achieved in the last 53 years.
Do all the 74 MPs and 208 State Assembly persons of Perikatan Nasional accept and support all the five Rukun Negara precepts and principles of Malaysian nation-building?

I was stunned and shocked by the DNAA development with regard to the Deputy Prime Minister and UMNO President, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Malaysia cannot rise up again to become a great world-class nation unless there is unity and common purpose among the diverse races, religions, and cultures in the country
In the first twenty years of my political life, I was accused of being anti-Chinese educated and anti-Indian to prevent the DAP from getting support from the non-Malays in the urban areas. The irresponsible purveyors of these lies and falsehoods failed.
Call on voters of Pulai and Simpang Jeram to save the country so that Malaysia can rise up again to become a great world-class nation
I call on the voters of Pulai parliamentary and Simpang Jeram state assembly by-elections next Saturday to have a high voter turnout with two objectives:
Johor to make history next Saturday which will be a test to decide whether the Anwar unity government forges ahead with reforms to make Malaysia a great world-class nation or Malaysia backtrack to become a divided, failed, and corrupt state
Johor will make history next Saturday which will be a test to decide whether the Anwar unity government forges ahead with reforms to make Malaysia a great world-class nation or Malaysia backtrack to become a divided, failed, and corrupt state.
Objective of voters of Pulai and Simpang Jeram is to ensure that Johor joins the club of Malaysian states before the next general election in 2027 with higher GDP per capita than the Malaysian average instead of joining Kelantan whose GDP per capita has dropped to less than one third of Malaysian average
The objective of voters of Pulai and Simpang Jeram in the two by-elections on Sept. 9 is to ensure that Johor joins the club of Malaysian states before the next general election in 2027 with higher GDP per capita than the Malaysian average instead of joining Kelantan whose GDP per capita has dropped to less than one third of Malaysian average after over three decades of PAS Government.
Invoking the spirit of 1957

I was in Form Three and the students of Batu Pahat High School were gathered at the school padang to hear the Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman, declare the independence of the nation.
Pulai and Simpang Jeram by-elections are in the frontline to save Malaysia by ending the irresponsible attempts of political forces to create polarisation among the diverse races and religions in plural Malaysia and to prevent Malaysia from rising up again to become a great world-class nation
Last August, I commented that the 65th National Day was diametrically different from the National Day in the previous two years of 2020 and 2021 — as there was hope and anticipation in 2022 instead of black despair and a sense of hopelessness in 2020 and 2021.
Hadi developed an animus toward me, making wild and preposterous allegations against me, including the lie that I am promoting Islamophobia, because I never proposed him to be Prime Minister of Malaysia
Posted by Kit in Hadi Awang on Tuesday, 29 August 2023, 2:04 pm
I fully endorse the statement by the DAP Secretary-General Anthony Loke that DAP had never told PAS to abandon Islam during the years when the two parties worked together, whether during Barisan Alternatif from 1999 to 2001 and in Pakatan Rakyat from 2008 to 2015.
In the first 20 years of my political life, I was accused of being an anti-Chinese educated or an CIA, MI6, KGB or Australian secret service agent but in the last 20 years, I was accused of being anti-Malay, anti-Islam, anti-Royalty, communist, and promoting Islamophobia

Is the PAS candidate for Simpang Jeram Dr. Mohd Mazri another Hadi Awang who spread lies, falsehoods, fake news, and hate speech without having to substantiate them?
I was shocked by the nomination day statement by the PAS candidate for Simpang Jeram, Dr. Mohd Mazri Yahya who pledged to break down a purported wall of racial animosity allegedly built by the DAP.
Does PAS want to win Johor to reduce it to one of the poorest states in Malaysia like Kelantan?
Today is the nomination day for the Pulai parliamentary and Simpang Jeram state assembly by-elections because of the death of its incumbent, the late Salahuddin Ayub.
Was Mahathir a DAP Gurkha in the 22 months he was Prime Minister of the Pakatan Harapan Government from May 2018–Feb 2020?
Posted by Kit in Hadi Awang on Friday, 25 August 2023, 5:27 pm
The PAS President Hadi Awang continues in a binge of new allegations against others, to the extent that the question must be asked whether Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad was a DAP Gurkha in the 22 months he was Prime Minister of the Pakatan Harapan government from May 2018–February 2020 and had to be toppled by the Sheraton Move political conspiracy.
Who are the national leaders who are Prime Minister-designates talking about the objective of Malaysia rising up again to become a great world-class nation?

In a week’s time, Malaysia will be celebrating the 66th National Day and in 34 years’ time, Malaysians will be Malaysia’s Centennial.
