Bigamy is unlawful if you are not a Muslim.In fact Muslims are allowed by religion to have maximum of four wives at the same time, if you can afford it or can survive the hell and fury of a polygamous marriage.
There are pre-conditions for Muslim men taking more than one wife.First you mush have the means to support them.More important, you must be fair to all and can provide same equity in material comfort, love and sex.That's what Prophet Mohammad and the Koran prescribed a Muslim man must observe and practise if he chose polygamy.Sound very simple, but this is where it becomes very messy, 99.9% of Muslims men do not adhere to those conditions and knowing human nature is such it is almost humanly impossible for most men to comply.
By right, most Muslims man should not be allowed to take more than one wife.In fact, there were many cases where the men can hardly afford to bring up one family and yet the imam solemnised the second marriage.Polygamy is more popular among Muslims in Peninsula than those in Sabah and Sarawak.
The PKR assemblyman for Bukit Selambau V.Arumugam is a bigamist according to his wife who lodged a report against him.Not only he had broken the law, he had also embarrassed the Kedah government and the palace by flaunting his younger second wife at official functions. Arumugam should have converted to Islam if he wanted to keep two wives at the same time.He would have overcome the problem. Arumugam won the Bukit Selambu state seat as an independent backed by PKR when its candidate was disqualified during nomination.
Anwar Ibrahim and other PKR leaders claim that Arumugam resigned because of undue pressure exerted on him by the BN to defect to their side and threatened to expose his problematic status if he refused.
Why did PKR and Pakatan leaders keep him and hide the fact from the public....or was it they don't know the background of their man and never bother to check in the first place to ensure he has a clean bill of health, which is what required of anyone before he can become a public figure ?
The Menteri Besar of Kedah Azizan Abdul Razak reportedly said there was a misunderstanding, actually Arumugam married the other woman about nine years ago.So, PKR and Pakatan knew about his status and in spite of that took him in as a matter of convenience, to fill the numbers.He has been a bigamist for nine years, is there a question of morality here?
The pressure from BN may be true, but than if your assemblyman has a clean bill he wouldn't be in such a mess. Blaming the BN may not be all that appropriate.You make the condition conducive for them to politicise it.That's what politics are all about, Pakatan should know it, they do it all the times to BN leaders, expose the ills of your enemies. Pakatan should look in their own backyard first before assigning blame to others.
I mentioned in my previous post that the people were so disillusioned with the BN even a dog could have won in the swing areas of the March 2008 general elections.
Bukit Selambau was one such area, Arumugam was an unknown, yet he could garner over 5000 majority.

Of Frogs,Toads, Scumbags and HYPOCRITES
Hantu Laut
Most would be highly repulsive and against it.Those who voted them felt betrayed and cheated.Some politicians glorify it.The law have nothing against it.
Like the monkeys in the forest it is not unlawful to swing from one tree to another. Only the law of morality speaks bad of it but than morality is a much abused word.
Welcome to the world of frogs, toads, scumbags and HYPOCRITES.
Defection was a 'highly glorified' word soon after the March 2008 Elections. Anwar Ibrahim was intensely promoting and glorifying defections to attract the scumbags from BN to cross over to Pakatan.There were some tense moments for BN when the situation became uncomfortably volatile and the risk of losing power was closing in. The panicky BN have to send some 30 of its MPs overseas to escape the evil clutches of Anwar Ibrahim. The purported study tour overseas was a smokescreen to hide the BN's true fear of Anwar's bluff of a coup on 16 September 2008. Amazingly, other than Karpal Singh, none of the Pakatan leaders and supporters protested and demonstrated against Anwar's evil attempt to wrest power from a democratically elected government. As many have suspected it was Anwar's biggest bluff. It shows that those who knows him doesn't trust him.No scumbags from BN took up the offer.
If the plot to topple the BN had been successful I bet my bottom dollar there would be explosion of celebrations and rejoicing of Anwar's master stroke, demolishing the evil regime.The hypocritical world of Pakatan would have chuckled at morality and chucked it into the dustbin of history and the pro-Anwar writers, journalists, bloggers and supporters would have a field day singing in praise of him.The accolades would have been nothing less than thunderous.The BN's eulogy and the satanic verses would have been read together with hellish rendering.
From the recent episode in Perak one can only conclude that scumbags politicians are everywhere and Pakatan were not short of it either.At least in BN they don't pretend to be good and spotless, they have accepted whatever accusations of wrongdoings that had been thrown at them. In Pakatan the scumbags are still well camouflaged in their lairs but are slowly coming out of the woodwork.The 2 PKR and 1 DAP assemblymen were just the tip of the iceberg. There would be more.
The biggest scumbag and one that should be given a trophy would be none other than the Wizard of Bota, Nasaruddin Hashim who should go down in the Guinness Book of World Records as the shortest hop made by a political frog.
In Kedah the assemblyman for Bukit Selambau V. Arumugam has tendered his resignation from the Exco and vanished.However, he has not resigned his assemblyman seat. It doesn't take much imagination to guess where he is going to resurface. This man not only exudes immorality but extreme stupidity with his aberrant behaviour.He married a young woman, almost 20 years younger than him, without divorcing his first wife and flaunted her at official functions.No one in Pakatan, including those of high moral standard, complained or reported him until it was exposed publicly by others with vested interest.In latest development Anwar said he has seen the letter of resignation.Could it be another undated pre-signed letter of resignation or the real one? We have to wait and see.
Morally spotless politician is not, a dime a dozen, most are tainted somehow or other. What happened in America and the West with the recent financial meltdown showed the West are not that squeaky clean either, as many of us would have thought.They have done worse damage to the global finance and economy.
Do not get me wrong I am not espousing corruptions and immoral behaviour, I am just trying to get the key fits in the correct lock and the real perspective of the hypocrisy of the whole issue.
The BN are full of them and they make no secret of it, they are corrupt, arrogance, thieves, robbers and say what you like, they may not be the best the country ever had, but they have also brought progress to the nation that many refused to give credit for .They could have done better if there were less corruptions and abuses of power.
I have no objection for politicians crossing the floor on principle or disagreement on policies but it becomes morally wrong and demeaning when it's for money and position.Unfortunately, in this country those who did it's did it for the wrong reason.
Most of us wanted a change of government, but must we do it with so much hatred and labour under so much self-delusion?

Read Anwar glorifying and justifying crossover.
Anwar: Pakatan Rakyat can take over Fed Govt by Sept 16
Syabas Dato’ Nasa!
Below a completely different reaction from Anwar:?We must go back to the people and get a fresh mandate,? opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim said earlier.
?The BN are trying to form the state government by hook or by crook ? more by crook,? he told AFP.
The man beaten at his own game.

Divine Intervention
Hantu Laut
Divine intervention couldn't have come at the most appropriate time for Pakatan to prove they still have the people's support. As Thomas a Kempis wrote in his book "The Imitation of Christ" that "Man proposes, God disposes.", which means human beings can make any plans they want, but it's God that decides their success or failure.
The passing of PAS MP for Bukit Gantang Roslan Shaharum means a by-election will be held for the constituency.
Another highly possible by-election is the state seat of Bukit Selambau in Kedah.The incumbent V.Arumugam has stated his intention to resign citing threat and pressure on him and his family.There were allegations of adultery against him.
Can Najib climbs two hills and come down a mountain?
Changing Tune:The Pied Piper Of Perak
Hantu Laut
A regular commentator SM asked me why I have deep hatred for Anwar Ibrahim. I told him I have no hatred for Anwar, it is just that I hate hypocrisy, inconsistency and double standard and Anwar epitomises all of these. His covetousness for power and the end justifies the mean to get there is going to be his next fall from grace. He extols civil disobedience and defiance of the law. The Perak constitutional crisis is one such case.He has successfully made the Sultan the punching bag of the people.The Sultan had been fair in his judgement, he personally met the 31 assemblymen at the palace and all of them expressed no confidence against the MB and the government. How could the MB be granted dissolution of the assembly when he has lost confidence of the majority of the members of the house. Whatever it may be Pakatan leaders and supporters would still insist they were right and the Sultan was wrong.
The Sultan has discretionary power to grant or not to grand dissolution, to say otherwise and accused the Sultan of taking sides is making mockery of the State and Federal constitutions and the monarch.A completely ignorant and bias interpretation of the constitution from someone who has absolutely no clue about its working is here. She is confused between 'confidence of the majority members of the assembly' and 'confidence of the majority members of political party'. I hope she is not a lawyer advising PKR.
Karpal Singh was right when he asked Anwar to step down as leader of the oppositions. Pakatan supporters are too blinded to see where this man is taking them, it just like when you are besotted with someone you can't see the flaws and faults in them until it wears out than you realise it's too late, the damage done.
As hypocritical and inconsistence as they can be they are now changing the tune and say they are not against the Sultan, will not sue him and will bring the message to the people and at the same time the Menteri Besar Nazir Jamaluddin will travel the length and breadth of Perak to convince the people he is still the legitimate menteri besar.
If you have your brain in the right place what does that tell you.As George Bush have said "If you are not with me, you are against me".He is not against the Sultan but refused to respect and comply with the Sultan's decision.If you are not against the Sultan than you should respect his decision and stop going around misleading the people.
This is what Anwar and Pakatan all about, they change their story when they feel the rising tide moving against them.They claimed Najib had robbed the rights of the people by masterminding a "coup d'etat" and MB Nazir in true Anwar's style said "We will take back the right stolen by Najib Altantuya" to a 8000 gullible Malays, mostly PAS supporters. The coup was made possible by Anwar's men.
Didn't know Najib has changed his surname to Altantuya.
