Who Is Malaysian First In Good Deeds?

Hantu Laut

Is the BN in a scurry or would there be a tectonic shift in Hulu Selangor?

Tengku Razaleigh predicted grave portent for BN in Hulu Selangor and bad omen. He said majority of Malays wouldn't vote for BN candidate.

In wide contrast to Razaleigh's prophecy other political pundits including Malaysian Insider which had never had kind words for Najib, have taken different view of the probable outcome of the Hulu Selangor by-election.The groundswell seems to be shifting in favour of the BN, at least among Malays and Indians.

By rights, the BN candidate for Hulu Selangor should be a Malay. The fielding of an Indian candidate should be seen as a sacrifice by UMNO, in spite of it being a Malay majority area.PKR, more likely, would field a Malay candidate.

Lim Kit Siang should put his money where his mouth is.Who is Malaysian first in deeds and who is Malaysian first in lip service.He can only talk and ridicule 1 Malaysia. What has he done? He has done more to divide the races and heightened racial sentiments.At least, Najib practises what he preaches.

Malays formed over 50% of voters in the area while Indians comprises less than 20%.The Chinese votes at 26% will be comfortably Pakatan's main trust of support.


The constituents are fed up with all talk and no action.

Razaleigh Says Malays Will Not Vote BN In Hulu Selangor

Hantu Laut

Ku Li came to Sabah and created a little political storm particularly among the KDM (Kadazan, Dusun,Murut) community.His talk on the oil royalty 'Minyak Sabah Untuk Siapa" was organised by Sabah Dusun Association and Persatuan Bloggers Sabah.His talk also opened a can of worms that got some opposition politicians excited about the 'Double Six' tragedy.A friend who attended the talk says he was not impressed.

After the talk he gave an interview to the most vociferous blogger in town who also happened to be a very active member of Sabah PKR.So, don't expect a balanced and unbiased statement coming from both Razaleigh and the blogger concerned.Below is an excerpt from the interview.

Ronnie : Tengku,allow me to sidetrack my next question away from the oil royalty issue.The upcoming Hulu Selangor by-election has now been fixed by the Election Commission.Nomination will be on the 17th.April while Polling has been fixed on the 25th.April,2010.In your opinion,how would you rate the chances of UMNO/BN and the Opposition?

Tengku : The Hulu Selangor by-election will not be easy for Barisan National.PKR will draw support if it's Malay candidate is good.Barisan National will not get the support from the Malays.

Read the full interview here.


As I did not attend the talk and the interview I can't vouch for the accuracy of the blogger's report or whether Razaleigh actually says it.

We all know both the Tengku and Anwar aspired to be prime minister for a long time.It was just unfortunate for Ku Li to lose his chance when he lost the party president's election to Mahathir and, thereafter, was in political wilderness for yonks.

Politics, can be full of surprises, one can never tell through the scrying pool.

Be Careful What You Take From 'Wikipedia'

Hantu Laut

I do, sometimes, use Wikipedia for reference but usually check with other sources if I have my doubts on the accuracy of the information.

One must not forget that Wikipedia is not perfect because it is written collaboratively by the people who use it and can be edited and changed on the same basis.In spite of those weaknesses, it is still a good reference source.

The recent controversy on the re-opening of the 'Double Six' tragedy got me curious whether Wikipedia carry such information and to my surprise it does but with grave error.

The full text below.

Double Six Tragedy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


The Double Six Tragedy, also known as the Double Six Crash, was a plane crash which took place on June 6, 1976 in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. The plane, operated by Sabah Air, coming from Labuan crashed in the sub-district of Sembulan in Kota Kinabalu upon approaching Kota Kinabalu International Airport. The crash killed everyone on board the flight, including Tun Fuad Stephens, the Chief Minister of Sabah at that time. The other passengers on the flight were State Ministers Datuk Salleh Sulong, Datuk Peter Mojuntin, Chong Thien Vun, and assistant minister Darius Binion. Others who perished were the then Secretary of State for the Ministry of Finance of Sabah Datuk Wahid Peter Andau, Director of Economic Planning Unit of Sabah Dr. Syed Hussein Wafa, Isak Atan (Private Secretary to Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah), Corporal Said Mohammad (bodyguard to Tun Fuad Stephens), Captain Gandhi Nathan (the pilot of the aircraft) leaving tun fuad's son johari alive until today.

The reason behind the crash is uncertain. Immediately after the accident there were allegations of foul play because of the death of the Chief Minister, but no evidence of such has ever been found.

The error in the above is regarding the son of the late Tun Fuad, Johari Stephens. He actually perished in the crash.There was no survivor at all.

I was at the crash site soon after it happened.The area was eventually cordoned off by the police.


A monument was built on the crash site which has recently been Incorporated into a small park by a private developer.

Taking step to correct the error.

The Truth Never Lies

Hantu Laut

The title may be oxymoron but it's the truth and truth doesn't lie.

The constant battering of the so-called baddies is nauseating.One side think they are holier than thou and portray the other side as the devil. They played on the callow and infertile minds of the young voters and drummed the ignorant, the gullible and unsophisticated minds.The simpletons, those who believe in anything you feed them.Little things please little minds.They seemed to have learned the art of indoctrination of the masses.

The clock is ticking, with or without substantive issues the propaganda machine must go on.Lies or truths, don't matter at all, they must keep the momentum alive by whatever means.

The oppositions seemed incapable of constructive criticism.They have completely ran out of substantive issues. Day in, day out they can only dwell on trivialities and mendacious propaganda.Some are so ridiculous, it's kind of ticklish, goes to show how bankrupt of ideas this bunch of stumbling political amateurs are.Vote them in and see how quickly they will destroy this nation.

Jewish moles in the PDRM? Surely, there are moles all over the place.What difference does it make whether they are British,American,France or Jews? Are they truly moles or just doing the work they are hired for? Than there are this childish thing like 1 Malaysia copied 1 Israel and APCO is a Jewish company.So, what's the problem? Anwar, the still de facto leader of the oppositions once sat as chairman of a Jewish-led organisation.

Yesterday, opposition lawmakers were chanting UMNO APCO in parliament that brought the house down.Thrash-talk and imbecile behaviour.Waste of parliamentary time and pathetic show of unruly behaviour.How do we, the taxpayers, benefit from this kind pettiness on some miserable company called APCO being played out in Parliament? Are there no better things they can thrash out in the august house.

APCO is a reputable international consultancy firm and has international staff working for them globally, have clientele all over the world and would have done work for the government of Israel.So what? Should that stop Malaysia from employing their expertise? If they are Mossad than I can understand the uproar.

The pompous display of trash (that's what I think it is) by the oppositions was instigated by Anwar Ibrahim to cover up his own long association with prominent Jewish figure like Paul Wolfowitz, the scandalous ex-president of the World Bank who gave a lavish tax-free pay rise to his girlfriend.He was the first president of the bank dismissed for wrongdoing.Wolfowitz was also one of the main architect and the most hawkish advocate of the Iraq War when he was the American Deputy Defense Secretary.Being close friend, Wolfowitz appointed Anwar as Chairman of Foundation for the Future run by him.

If the Muslims of Malaysia want to know, this is the man, this close friend of Anwar Ibrahim who was mainly responsible for the deaths of thousand of innocent Muslims in Iraq and the destruction of the country and this is the same man who once said about the Holocaust "It's a very bad thing when people exterminate other people, and people persecute minorities. It doesn't mean you can prevent every such incident in the world, but it's also a mistake to dismiss that sort of concern as merely humantarian and not related to real interest."


The Face of Genocide

So, how could APCO and the bloody Jewish moles supposedly working in PDRM be worse than this Jewish friend of his who slaughtered innocent Muslims by the hundred of thousands.

Isn't this hypocrisy of the highest order?

Than, we have the threesome, Yong Teck Lee of SAPP, Jeffery Kitingn of PKR and Lim Kit Siang of DAP who wanted the 'Double Six' tragedy, the plane crash that killed Sabah Chief Minister, the late Tun Fuad and a number of cabinet ministers in Sabah on 6 June 1976 to be re-opened for investigation without giving any specific reason.All they said was based on new revelation by Tengku Razaleigh on his recent visit to Sabah where he stirred Sabahans to get more money out of Petronas and where he related the story.

I presumed, these three ignoramus weren't born yet when the tragedy happened because what Razaleigh revealed during his talk was not anything new.It was common knowledge that he boarded the wrong plane and Harris Salleh had to call him to disembark from the wrong plane and join him in the other plane where he should have been in the first place.

What was the motive behind this rather unusual request? Do they think there have been foul play? Jeffery by his wordings implied there was.Otherwise, why would they asked the case to be re-opened.The Federal government should investigate.They are implicated.

Former Sabah Chief Minister Harris Salleh took exception to it when it was reported in the newspaper and accused Yong and Jefferey of being mischievous and demanded that they repeat it more specifically.The two cowards did not dare give specific reason why they asked for the case to be re-opened.I, myself, as a Sabahan and close friend of the late Tun Fuad family have asked Lim Kit Siang through 'twitter' for his reason but he has not responded.Copy of my tweet below.

@limkitsiang Hi, Y.B Lim, could you tell me why you want the 'Double Six' tragedy case reopen.We,Sabahans are concerned n want to know.
