I need not fill the glass to the brim or indulge in prolixity on the Bar Council claims of impartiality, even handedness and their premature condemnation of police brutality in the BERSIH 3 rioting.
It was rioting in every sense of the word which requires forceful means to stop it flaring into uncontrollable civil unrest. The Bar Council seems to encourage this kind of political expedition in the name of the right to peaceful assembly.
No assembly of tens of thousands of people congregating in a small place have been known to be peaceful, more tensional and tinder, if anything to go by, a potential source of trouble.
Need not write a lengthy masterpiece on this. A scattering would suffice.
Read their pathetic response at http://www.malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/special-reports/49488-loyarburok-responds-to-roger-tan
They say they arrived at the conclusion based on observations made by 80 lawyers deployed by the Bar Council.
As Roger Tan rightly say who are these 80 lawyers, people of such impeccable character that their testimonies are gospel truth.
Are they godsends ?
Are they saying all lawyers are saints and angels, unquestionably righteous, therefore, we must believe in what they say.
How can they be independent and impartial if all of them represent the Bar Council ?
No matter how hard they try, they can't fool right thinking Malaysians with their pile of poo. Only the blinkered opposition supporters would be in feeding frenzy and swallow the poo.......... hook, line and sinker.

Why Malays Should Not Fear DAP And Should Join en-masse ?
Hantu Laut
Excerpts from SakmongkolAK47's "Malays should not fear the DAP"
The DAP is a democratic party committed to the rule of law, good governance and good government. It abhors corruption and abuse of political office. To me those are attractive propositions. UMNO on the other hand has turned its back on these. It harps only on one primal worry of Malays- when UMNO is threatened it shares the threat with Malays at large. So a threat to UMNO is translated mindlessly into a threat to Malays as a whole. Nothing can be farther from the truth. That is how UMNO has approached politics in Malaysia basically- make its fears public, make the gains private for selected Malays within UMNO.
To the Chinese UMNO is also a chauvinist Malay party except, their leaders can be easily bought. The Malay will sell all to abandon their cause. Er…correction, the UMNO Malay, I mean.

I would also like to respond by saying- why Malays should consider joining DAP en masse. It’s a party committed to democratic principles and rule of law. I can only imagine, so many can prosper under a regime of freedom of speech within DAP. I can speak on the plight of the displaced and disowned Malays with more energy than allowed of in UMNO. The interest of Malays can be fought of on any political platform other than UMNO. That is what UMNO fears. Its monopoly is broken.
So the past week I have had many friends calling me asking whether it’s true I am joining DAP? Some folks in my hometown, Pekan refer to me now as Dato DAP. I find the responses somewhat amusing and comical
I see a sense of hopelessness. They cannot attack our nationalist credentials because we are as Malay as they are too ( to some we are , in fact more Malay in appearance and in thinking) – so they do what they do best. Attack me on the personal side. No big deal. My advice to these UMNO bloggers is simple. Please stop telling lies about me, and I promise not to tell the truth about you people. And telling the truth about you people includes telling the truth about top UMNO leaders including the PM who is Pekan UMNO division head.
If we are so easily beatable, then why all the fuss? We can’t do damage to invincible UMNO. We on the other hand, see UMNO as the party before, presently and forever stealing, pillaging and ruining the country.

The Bar Council: Give Them The Lee Kuan Yew's Remedy
Hantu Laut
Yes! Start a new bar, academy of law or whatever, where lawyers are lawyers, not loudmouth politically bias legal pariahs cooking the government's goose for the opposition.
It's as clear as day they are taking sides.
Start a new bar council or influence members of the bar to kick out the punkish committee, the progeny of that opposition mole Ambiga Sreenevasan.
Defender of freedom and the downtrodden, my foot!
This government wasn't born yesterday.Stop fooling the people that you are lawyers, you are not, your are uncouth lawyers and politicians.
Step into the ring if you want a fair fight.Don't shit on me under the protective cover of the Legal Profession Act
Yes! Give them the Lee Kuan Yew's remedy for their long suffering illness.
In 1988, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew when debating the bill on the new Academy Of Law said it was his duty to put an end to politicking in professional bodies.
He said “If you want to politicise, you form your own party… you think you can be smarter than the government and outsmart it, well, if you win, you form the government. If I win, we have a new Law Society. It is as simple as that,”
Members of The Bar Council have lost their impunity. They have shown complete indiscretion and abused of the Legal Profession Act.
Enough is enough! It's time to kick their arses!

The Beginning Of The End Of Pakatan Rakyat:Malays Versus Chinese
Hantu Laut
When you have scolded and scorned a man of age, wisdom and a model of rectitude to the point of injuring his pride and principle, what's the point of asking him to reconsider his decision, and, worst, insulting him by dangling RM50,000.00 carrot to try make him stay.
So much for a party who wanted to rid this country of corruptions.
Do I feel sorry for Tunku Aziz? No! I feel sorry for Guan Eng for his obstinate foolhardiness and arrogance.
Aren't they all the same, this pot that called the kettle black, think just like the devil they wanted to replace, that money can buy everything and everyone, including your conscience and principle. This time they got the wrong man, a man who does not live by muck and brass.
DAP leader Lim Guan Eng has got so carried away by success, so much so, he has become big-headed and arrogant, showing no respect for other's opinion and similarly no respect for the elders. He thinks he is the king of beasts that scare people when he roars, when he is nothing but a political upstart who behaves arrogantly.
Democracy and freedom? He can now put the money where his mouth is.
Little did Lim realise that his punitive action against Tunku Aziz has turned the tide and start the beginning of the Malay exodus from Pakatan Rakyat. By the stroke of his foolhardiness he also confirmed the enduring perception by most Malays that DAP is a chauvinistic Chinese party.This perception, not so much the Aziz factor, may turn away the Malays from supporting Pakatan Rakyat.
The Malays versus Chinese, which I used to brush aside and think is not likely to happen seems to loom larger on the horizon as we get nearer the general elections.The widening rift are caused by irresponsible politicians from both sides of the political divide.
Some Malay politicians, equally arrogant, are less subtle than people like Guan Eng.
Raucous politician like Ibrahim Ali, the doyen of Malay chauvinism, is crude, more open and easier to read than people like Guan Eng who hides under the cloak of equity, equality, freedom and democracy.
Will Tunku Aziz, whose outlook is more Anglophile, be the rallying point for Malay unity?
As they say 'nothing is impossible, it's miracle that takes time'
The tide is turning, the Malays votes may be making a U turn. PAS is now in troubled waters.
The din of racialism is louder now than ever before. The 13th General Elections would see a strong en-bloc Chinese votes for DAP and a stronger en-bloc Malay votes for UMNO.The Indians are not even in the equation as significant voters. In all likelihood they would be with UMNO.
It's a dangerous path that we are taking and who's to blame?
Certainly, not the ordinary people, it's the greedy politicians who cared for nothing else but their insatiable greed for political power and, by extension, helped line their pockets.
Am I being stupid for saying this after what we saw in Bersih 3, the very mixed crowd that thronged the streets of Kuala Lumpur.
If you believe in the existence of the devil as much as in God than you must also believe that not all roads lead to Kuala Lumpur.
Don't get me wrong, I may have many Malay friends but I have more close Chinese friends.Friends that I spend more time with and get better understanding of their mindset.
For the moment this suffice, I'll be writing more of this as we get nearer the 13th General Elections, which almost everyone predicted in June.
I have said earlier in this blog that the 13th GE would be after Ramadan and before the year end.
Let's wait and see who got it right.
