It's The Singer Not The Song

Hantu Laut

Sabah, the poorest and most backward state in Malaysia seems to have the magic wand when it comes to giving away their money to charity.

Seemingly poor Sabahans are not so poor after all when it's time to give away their money for a good cause.This act of charity and compassion can be seen in many charity concerts/functions held in the state, where almost every function, no matter how crappy the show is, have been well attended.

It's interesting to note that the people of this poor state can be so generous in spite of being called backward and poor. Where the hell their money come from?They probably have stacks of money hidden under their pillows.

The recent cyclone in Burma and earthquake in China have brought tragic and massive deaths and destruction to people and properties.As usual funds were raised by the government and the media by asking the public to donate.

In Sabah, a local newspaper the Daily Express launched a donation drive soon after the disasters.To date it has collected the amount as shown below:

1.China quake disaster RM453,275.80

2.The Myanmar cyclone disaster RM132,484.00

The total collection is almost touching RM600,000. and would be closed on Thursday, 29th May.

Similarly, the Star launched its donation drive about the same time and has collected as follows:

1. China quake disaster RM 33,031.00

2. Myanmar cyclone disaster RM134,500.00

The total amount collected by the newspaper now stands at RM167,531.00

I have no idea whether there are other newspaper in Peninsula besides the Star that are also collecting donations for the two disasters.

Call it stupidity or good nature, Sabahans have been very patience with the Federal government over the issue of illegal immigrants for many decades. Now they have to suffer the consequences of their stupidity. There are more illegal immigrants than locals in the state.Many illegal immigrants have obtained citizenship by dubious means.

Just go to any towns on the east coast, Tawau, Lahad Datu and Sandakan, you probably think you are in Mindanao or Sulawesi.

Sabahans, for their good nature have become strangers in their own land.

Miskin? Mungkin di ulu-ulu sana banyak yang miskin. Tu pun masih boleh nampak tiang Astro sana-sini.

Tapi yang pasti orang Sabah murah hati, biar nampak orang susah dan tidak kenal tapi masih kita tolong. Kalau tidak murah hati macam mana sampai begitu banyak PTI di negeri Sabah sekarang?

HL,

I suppose you have to be a Sabahan to understand them!
Maybe they are happy with what's been happening in Sabah? Sounds foolish but if not then why are they not doing anything about it? Why do they still vote for the BN (read: UMNO) who we all know started their problems (with that Project IC, etc, etc) a long time ago? Why don't they make some noise when their MPs sit quietly even though others (e.g. Lim Kit Siang) are trying to debate their issues in Parliment?
Just defies logic!

Murah hati dan dibodohkan oleh ahli politik mereka sendiri yang hanya jaga keperluan diri sendiri.

sm,
I don't think the Sabahans like it, we have no choice with the kind of useless politicians we have, forever kowtow to the Federal government who neglect their responsibility to provide security to the people and the state.

Maybe, you are right we do need a new and responsible government with fresh ideas.

There are tons of rich people in Sabah - I just have to look at my circle of friends.

What's saddening is that the rich don't bother to help out the poor Sabahans in the kampung (I'm not talking about the PTI). When my mom goes back she tries to help some people out in the kampung where my grandma lives, and my uncle does some sort of charity work too, so I sort of know the situation.

It sounds totally idealistic but really, if we're not selfish and help those who are poor, it would be so much better.

It reminds me of the parable of the offering made by the poor lady and the rich man in Bible. Its not about the sum of money that we offered, its more about been sincerely generous to offer our offerings. Religion teach us to be generous when donating, and that's the most important value. Although they might be some people who want publicity from doing huge donation, but we as a normal individual, as long as its sincere to fulfill the obligation for needy, God will remember what we do.

Please do not assume all Sabahans are like that. I for one does not vote BeeEnd, and never will until hell freezes over. Unfortunately I happen to live in a place where my vote counts for nothing since it is one of the hottest places with Project IC recipients. I am sad that Sabah in in its current dire straits while that bunch of monkeys in the state gomen continue to plunder the state clean. If I have my way they will be first up against the wall when the revolution comes.

I do not like the state Sabah is in today. I had PTIs yelling right into my face that this is going to be their country whether I like it or not. Does it make you wonder if I will mow one down with my truck on a highway just like that?

The problem with you people over there in West Malaysia is that you could not care less whether we live or die but please remember this : One day one of these PTIs or their children or grandchildren may become Malaysia's Prime Minister.

Far fetched? Maybe yes, maybe no. But when it happens, don't come running to me and say "KENAPA BOLEH JADI BEGINI???"

FIXED DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS OF MAHATHIR'S WIFE AND 5 OF HIS CHILDREN



AS WELL AS HIS CRONIES







The information regarding the Fixed Deposit Accounts of Mahathir's

wife and 3 of his children are as below. These accounts were opened at

an Israeli Singapore-based bank in the neighboring country of

Singapore. The bank is ISRAELI NATIONAL BANK.



That vast amount of monies could have been derived through the following:



Deposited by an agent of the Israeli Government or any other foreign government.

Derived by the various companies of Mahathir's cronies.

Perhaps this could be the RM1Bil missing from UMNO's account which

Anwar Ibrahim brought up before he was dismissed from UMNO.

george.k,

You are an idiot and a moron of the first order if you think I will fall for your malicious intent on the former Prime Minister.

Our former PM may be many things that people say he is but he is not as stupid as you and I don't think he and his family have any hidden wealth outside the country.

I know how the banking and financial system work and if a moron like you can get such information so easily from a bank than most banks will be out of business.

You better learn to walk properly before you want to run, otherwise, you will trip,stumble,fall and break your neck.

If you are void of any intelligent things to say, please refrain from making comment on this blog.

I am keeping the comment not because I believe it is true.I am keeping it to show what a malicious person you.
