Anwar Cakap Tak Serupa Bikin.



Hantu Laut

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

The "tough" is not Anwar, it's Raja Petra, who had from the very beginning says he is prepared to face Anwar.

You can see the sheepish grin on Anwar's face when he tried to avoid the controversy surrounding his demand for Wikileaks to drop Raja Petra from the forum and of him, subsequently, being called a chicken by Raja Petra.

Raja Petra stripped naked his hypocrisy and falsehood.Anwar deemed himself so powerful, unconsciously, he already behaving worse than the devil he wanted to get rid off to bring more freedom to this country.

Though, I hate to use this somewhat idiotic American phrase which is gaining popularity among Malaysian politicians and writers such as he did not "WALK THE TALK", or "WALK THE WALK", or "TALK THE TALK". What's wrong with the original and proper English version of "TALK IS CHEAP" or "ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THEN WORDS", or "PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH"

I prefer the one in Malay, sounds more euphonious and appropriate "CAKAP TAK SERUPA BIKIN"

What did he do? As versatile as a chameleon he quickly changed colour to suit his surroundings, out of the blue, asking Najib to be included in a debate on the Wikileaks sponsored forum.

His mistake of demanding the exclusion of Raja Petra sank his big fat bullshit about making Malaysia "land of the free" The abrupt turnaround is definitely his attempt to try to "tutup malu" by diverting attention.The man doesn't have a single grain of sincerity and honesty in him.In the first place, Najib was never invited, why should he bring Najib into the picture now.

This is the kind of cunningness Anwar possessed.

Unfortunately, to scatterbrained Malaysians he is right, he is the hero, the saviour, the infallible and the man who is going to save Malaysia from clutches of evils.

Anwar is unsuitable to be leading this nation, a person who can tell one story to one community and a different story to another community.



I must admit he is a good orator that can impress the uninitiated.If you care to look deeper and analyse his actions and speeches you would be surprise how inconsistent and contradictory the man is.

He had never impressed me from the day he became active in UMNO when his political speeches were full of bombastic Malay words I have never heard of before.His earlier speeches were designed to impress rather than for want of delivering the substance.

Anwar loves the world stage where he can show off his oratory articulation and show the whole wide world his chamelonic skills.









A picture speaks a thousand words.Only in Malaysia where leaders can shake your hand and look the other way.Most Malaysians don't mind this kind of rudeness, my grandfather would have flogged you to death.

It is Najib prerogative to participate or not.Political debate has never been a tradition in Malaysia.Why now!

A good orator does not necessary make a good leader.

As an employer before, I have met those who excel at interviews just because they can talk better but turned out to be pretty useless on the job.

Don't judge a book by its cover, it's the inside pages that matter.

Like Father, Like Son

Hantu Laut

If you are son or daughter of a prominent figure you might be better off going for a tinkle before you show your biceps to some poor security guard.

No matter how right you were, you be deemed the guilty party.Never argue or fight with people below your level of gray matter.Don't expect a security guard to have initiative and uses his own discretion to entertain your wishes.

Minister in the PM Dept Nazri's son was reported to have assaulted a security supervisor
here.











(That looks like an expensive Cubano cigar)


It took me back to the past, about three decades ago, when I had to intervene an ugly scene from ensuing between my friend and a club bouncer in Singapore, over a little misunderstanding.Coincidentally, my friend was also a son of a prominent figure in Sabah, no less a chief minister.To cut it short, I reminded my friend that this is Singapore and I am a resident here and lest he forgets his father is not a chief minister here.I was young then but my good sense saved us a night at the police lock-up, me calling my wife to bail me out and worse me picking up a criminal record.

Let see, why this young man has to travel with bodyguards? Is he trying to show off or he has too may enemies? Are the bodyguards to protect him or protect his expensive toy?


Being a son of a minister one may ask if he is he a successful business man to be able to buy a Porsche, which is an expensive toy to maintain if you don't have a deep pocket.If he is not, than tongues would be waging where he gets the money from.

Top of the range 911 Porsche would set you aside well over RM1.0 million.Not sure which model he claimed proud ownership?


What is it about this kind of people? Do they glean vicarious power from that of their fathers?


For some, it seemed to run in the family.

In The Land Of The Free,Freedom Is A Myth




The US touts itself as the land of free, but it has laws which are designed to crush criticisms of the state.

Since the terrorist attacks of 2001, the US has spent about $635bn to militarise the country's local police forces [GALLO/GETTY]

New Haven, CT - In 1893, a massive financial panic sent demand for the Pullman Palace Car Company into a downward spiral. The luxury rail car company reacted by slashing workers' wages and increasing their work load. After negotiations with ownership broke down the following year, the American Railway Union, in solidarity with Pullman factory workers, launched a boycott that eventually shut down railroads across the US. It was a full-scale insurrection, as the late historian Howard Zinn put it, that soon "met with the full force of the capitalist state".

The US Attorney General won a court order to stop the strike, but the union and its leader, Eugene V Debs, refused to quit. President Grover Cleveland, over the objections of Illinois' governor, ordered federal troops to Chicago under the pretense of maintaining public safety. Soldiers fired their bayoneted rifles into the crowd of 5,000, killing 13 strike sympathisers. Seven hundred, including Debs, were arrested. Debs wasn't a socialist before the strike, but he was after. The event radicalised him. "In the gleam of every bayonet and the flash of every rifle," Debs said later on, "the class struggle was revealed".

I imagine a similar revelation for the tens of thousands of Americans who participated in last fall's Occupy Wall Street protests. As you know, the movement began in New York City and spread quickly, inspiring activists in the biggest cities and the smallest hamlets. Outraged by the broken promise of the US and inspired by democratic revolts of Egypt and Tunisia, they assembled to protest economic injustice and corrupt corporate power in Washington.

Inside Story: US 2012 - Attacking the unions

Yet the harder they pushed, the harder they were pushed back - with violence. Protesters met with police wearing body armour, face shields, helmets and batons; police legally undermined Americans' right to assemble freely with "non-lethal" weaponry like tear gas, rubber bullets and sonic grenades. There was no need for the president to call in the army. An army, as Mayor Bloomberg quipped, was already there.

Before Occupy Wall Street, many protesters were middle- and upper-middle class college graduates who could safely assume the constitutional guarantee of their civil liberties. But afterward, not so much. Something like scales fell from their eyes, and when they arose anew, they had been baptised by the fire of political violence.

Income inequality isn't just about justice; it's about freedom, too. One view of freedom minimises the state's role in an individual's life and maximises markets so that individuals are free to risk whatever they want to risk to be whatever they want to be. Another view sees the obligation of the state to hedge against the risk of the marketplace so that individuals can feel secure enough to be what they want to be.

Obviously, the libertarian view favours someone who can afford risk; the socialist view favours someone who can't. One view has confidence in the market while the other is skeptical. One view sees income inequality as natural while the other sees it as politically oppressive.Read more.

I Am Gay By CHOICE !

Hantu Laut

One's sexual orientation or preference is one's own business, which is best kept behind closed doors.

The burning question I have always wanted to ask is, is homosexuality a biological defect, a perversion or just a genetic variance of human sexuality?

Homosexuality also exists throughout the animal kingdom. Unlike humans, animals do not have highly developed brains, yet some have homosexual tendencies.

It reminds me of poor old "Whiskey" who keeping humping my leg every time I get invited to my friend's house for dinner.I suspect Whiskey is not only homosexual but sex-starved.Obviously, you don't have to be another dog, any leg will do, as far as Whiskey is concerned.

Homosexuality, have existed since time immemorial, since before Biblical time and Sodom and Gomorrah.The Abrahamic religions frown upon homosexuality and consider it a perversion rather than a natural trait.Islam imposes severe punishment on those found guilty of sodomy.

Besides homosexuality we have a third dilemma, those who enjoy the best of both worlds.....the bisexuals, which again is a burning question, is it a matter of choice or an anomaly of natural selection, where one have no control over one's sexual orientation?

Here, Anwar Ibrahim's former friend and confidante has openly accused him of being bisexual and threatened to expose the names of women and boys who slept with him during his time as deputy prime minister.

I have some homosexual friends who were as straight as a ruler when they were young and became full-blown homosexuals when they grow up to be adults.

Can homosexuality be latent in a person's body and manifest later in life? Do some men and women find the opposite sex body so repulsive that makes them looked the other way? Can you be gay by choice? Read Cynthia Nixon's revelation "I am gay by CHOICE" that got her a backlash from the gay community.













Gay by choice: Cynthia Nixon has revealed she chose her partner Christine Marinoni over a man of her own free will


I have come to term with homosexuals, I think it has something to do with the genes, the chromosomes or whatever other names the sciences called them, but bi-sexuality, that's a choice, a perversion, greed.One kind not enough must have both kinds to fulfill their licentious desire.
