I am not sure where he is heading for? Obviously, avoiding the subject.What has V.K.Lingam, PKFZ and Pewaja have anything to do with the issue at hand?
Baffling!
Here, Penang's Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng asking people to ignore the tape. Here, other Pakatan leaders foolishly denied that the person was Anwar, simply saying it was doctored,without having seen the tape.
Anwar is a public figure, a former deputy prime minister and opposition leader and who would probably become prime minister of this nation in the future.It is in Anwar's interest, his family and that of this nation to clear his name by asking the tape to be analysed by video forensic experts.
To merely deny and simply branded the video as fake and a process of character assassination would be seen as obscurantism.
I am sure Anwar, if he is innocent, would want to score points with the people by getting the truth out in the open.
If Anwar failed to demand an expert analysis of the tape than the government to be fair to him, his family and this nation must seek the truth by securing the tape and send it to an independent expert preferably from a foreign country to analyse the tape and get to the bottom of it.
If it is confirmed a fake than the makers of the tape must be severely punished.

Don't Jump To Conclusion It's Anwar
Hantu Laut
Malaysians should not jumped to conclusion that the man in the video is Anwar Ibrahim even if there is resemblance of him of the person in the video.With today's technology doctoring a video is no mean feat and Anwar should be given the benefit of the doubt until the video goes to an independent video forensic expert for technical analysis.
As the ruling party has been implicated by the opposition, both parties including Anwar must agree to appoint the same forensic expert, whose final finding must be accepted by all parties concerned.
If I may suggest, the service of the British experts who did the analysis of the Sri Lankan execution video should be sought to clear the air once and for all.The UN accepted the authenticity of the video confirmed by the experts.
Would Anwar be so stupid to be caught again in another illicit sexual tryst and this time with a woman, a prostitute no less.
Wan Azizah was skeptical that her husband who was accused and charged with sodomy is now caught with a woman calling it "just another one" in a series of "dirty tactics".Well, a man can either be straight, homosexual or bi-sexual.Some married men have dual tendencies and their wives do not know or refused to believe their husbands can be both.
As usual opposition leaders all jumped on the same bandwagon and quick to accuse government involvement.The setup could also be the work of some people in the opposition to get rid of Anwar whom they see is becoming a liability.So, it is not necessarily the people in government are the culprits.
If the video is a fake than Anwar should be jubilant.That would be the best political gift for him and bad news for Najib even if he had no knowledge or part in it.
The court of public opinion always see Anwar as a victim, a truly saintly politician who can do no evil until the Jews found out his dual personalities.

Wan Azizah's Apocalypse Now
Hantu Laut
PKR (Parti Keadilan) Sabah had its convention at Kinarut, Sabah on 12 March and launched its Buku Jingga (Orange Book), party leaders were euphoric that it would revive the party ailing popularity.
A get together to rejuvenate the party's health and convince Sabahans that this is the party that will resolve Sabah misfortunes when they took over political power. In greater scheme of things, the return of the 20 points and 20% increment of oil royalty.Delegates were jubilant no less, until Wan Azizah uttered the mother of all blunders, an unforgiveable insult to Sabahans.
Arrogance, lack of political wisdom and insincerity seems to be inherent quality of PKR top leadership.Making false promises is another biological trait they seem to possess.PKR leaders in distant Kuala Lumpur do not know Sabah and do not bother or want to know what the people of Sabah want.
Their only concern is how to grab political power by whatever means, by hook or by crook, does not matter, even citing Egypt's people power as an example that Malaysians can copy, forgetting that they are inciting a rebellion as the government of the day was elected by the people through a free and fair elections.
Sabah PKR has been saddled with problems the day it opened its door to Sabahans.Just too many to mention.
Anwar Ibrahim is a poor judge of character and has serious deficiency in trusting people. The sacking of 12 of Jeffery Kitingan's KDM boys by Anwar without giving them a fair hearing was the straw that broke the camel back.He later removed Jeffery as Sabah PKR chief.
Not getting what they promised him ignited the departure of Jeffery Kitingan and the whole KDM's support exited with Jeffery when he left. Than came new chief Tamrin's prickly problem of no grassroots support. Removed Thamrin and came another bigger blunder of Pajudin Nordin, an unknown appointed by Party President Wan Azizah as PKR Sabah chief that triggered a revolt in majority of the party's divisions.Instead of defending her decision she came back to Sabah with the intention of removing Pajudin who preempted her move by resigning and immediately jumped to UMNO.
The convention aimed at bringing PKR back on track as fate would have it, was not to be. Wan Azizah the party president uttered the mother of all blunders what Sabahans hated most, what she must have thought was a smart political move.......promised to legalise all illegal immigrants by giving them permanent residence status within 100 days 0f taking over Putrajaya.
Party delegates were in shocking disbelieve and not at all impressed.They just could not believe what they just heard, the very thing they wanted to get rid off for decades is going to be legalised by Anwar Ibrahim and company.Is this the type of leader that they wanted, that dare to broach the frightening prospect of handing over the state to foreigners. Gaibon Ransoi, deputy chairman of the Tuaran division called Azizah's statement 'gila' and lamented "I am in PKR to fight for social justice and to defend the rights of the people of Sabah, not to help illegal immigrants become citizens"
Jinx seems to accompany Anwar Ibrahim and his wife Wan Azizah whenever they come to Sabah.
Sabahans took what she said seriously and PKR is finished as far as Sabah is concerned.
Now, how she wished it was a bad dream.
Just watch, they will immolate themselves in Sarawak too.

Is Najib Killing The Goose That Lays The Golden Egg ?
Hantu Laut
It's clear that there is a concerted move within UMNO that Najib gets a weak government after the 13th General Elections but may turn out otherwise.He may lose the government because of some UMNO leaders.His popularity alone can't save his government.
First and foremost,the Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister seemed not in sync with Najib's 1 Malaysia. A polarity clash not seen during Mahathir's time.Even Abdullah did not have that problem then because Najib stayed true as his deputy and did not make any unsettling statements.Demolishing Pak Lah was Tun Mahathir's precipitous intervention.
Sabah and Sarawak hold the keys to BN retaining the Federal government but recent events may prove otherwise if Najib continue to drag his feet on the Bible and Allah issues.The threatening statement here by the Mufti of Perak is uncalled for and needling for trouble.
I wonder how many Muslims were actually against it to justify such drastic action.I am sure Malaysian Muslims are peace loving and reasonable people and would not want to turn this country into another Afghanistan or Pakistan over an issue that is more political than religious in nature.
The Malay language is not the Malaysian government monopoly.Over 200 million Indonesians spoke the language, much more than in Malaysia. The Kadazans of Sabah and Dayaks of Sarawak have always had, for yonks, their Bibles in the Indonesian Malay language.
Even the mad and more extremist Pakistanis did not stop the Bible in Urdu and so did the Afghans, allowing it to be written in Pashto and Dari.The Christians are very small minority in these two countries and are persecuted by the larger Muslim population but would still allow the Bibles to be printed in the local language.
For decades this country was free of such dilemma until some jackass in the Home Ministry woke up one fine morning with a bad dream.Even the most hated (untrue,only politicians hate him) Prime Minister Mahathir did not touch on this religiously sensitive subject during his time.We heard of no such trouble then, the devil he may be, but he had everything under control, particularly issues of ethnic and religious sensitivities.
Hishmuddin, the Home Minister should wake up and ponder whether what he has done would help him garner votes or he just could not care less or what he did was with Najib's blessing.
If what he did was with Najib's blessing,which I doubted, than Najib should kill his 1 Malaysia and bury it in the deep blue sea.
Whatever the oppositions say about taking over the two states, BN have very good prospect of retaining Sabah and Sarawak, so don't kill it out of emotional stupidity of some of your ministers.
In Sabah and Sarawak, we have family members who are Christians, Buddhists and other faiths and we have no problem living alongside them.
Please leave Sabah and Sarawak out of this controversy.We have never complained about the Bible being printed in Malay.On the other hand, I am not sure whether Christians really need to use the word 'Allah' when they have other choices.
Why don't you learn to co-exist without imposing the will of each other's religion on the other.
