Perkara yang kita khuatiri sudah berlaku. Masyarakat Melayu yang berugama Islam, merasa resah. Mereka tidak puas hati. Kali ini kalimah Allah yang sebati dengan agama mereka di kongsi bersama. Kepada orang Islam, Allah bukan hanya suatu kalimah. Ia mengandung erti yang mendalam dan lebih luas. Ada matlaon yang sudah berani berkata- Allah is God to Christians and Muslims. Jika 'fahaman'

Kita baca sana sini mengenai betapa bankrupt nya politik UMNO sehingga terpaksa mengorek di buritan periuk dan memilih Isa Samad. Segala penyokong PKR pun dengan rasa sombong dan megah diri, mengeciskan pilihan UMNO. Mereka telah menggunakan suatu konsep yang selalu di gunakan apabila alasan rasional sudah kehabisan- iaitu the moral highground. Tapi itu semua mendedahkan sikap hipokrasi

 My article on Bagan Pinang- vote for normalcy stirred up abnormal interests. There were some colorful though not flattering descriptions of sakmongkol. That's all right as I have said I have no problems with disagreeing in debates of this kind. As long as you do it in a civilized manner. Don't lah call people stupid or pokemon or what. I have been described in worse terms by UMNO members. I

All UMNO needs now is to hand PR its first defeat. It will break them. It seems to me, the PR people are bringing up 1001 excuses to rationalize their coming defeat. Why should it bother them who UMNO chooses as candidate in this Bagan Pinang election? The PR people will still have to contend with the BN machinery. So why the noise about insisting the postal voters be given a fair 'space' to

PM Najib said this:-"I believe this is a meaningful development that will boost Malaysia's image," he said.Ah ha, so it's another country-branding exercise, an image job. Hence, the Government's involvement in the negotiations with the F1 franchise holders. But it is now no longer contented being a franchise holder- that's not making money. But at what cost? You have to spend money to get more

UMNO must re-evaluate its modus operandi. Before- it trivialises people, now it finds it must engage them. In an interactive world, UMNO leadership must adopt new operating procedures.Practise global benchmarking. With whom do we measure up? With Zimbabwe? With East Timor? With basket case countries so that we can console and comfort ourselves into saying we are better? What's the basic cause for

 You expect this kind of thing to happen. For a party composed of members who think nothing of throwing chairs and projectiles and one even carrying a coffin to its assembly, this 'kichi mayung' thing is bound to happen. An overzealous MIC member, fed by urgings and maybe signals from top MIC leadership garlanded Tun Dr Mahathir's portrait with slippers.This is a reflection of the mercurial

The 'key strategic policies for future UMNO success', are...1. Forget the past. Many people persist in the belief that the past will be the future. It won't. The past offers valuable guidance - but strategy derives far more benefit from full and proper understanding of the present. The present is different. The voters are a thinking public. They want to be engaged with reason, respect. They are
