Aquino: Lame Duck President ?

Hantu Laut

Another gunfight ensued in Semporna and one of our policemen killed and one injured.

As I have predicted correctly there are sympathisers in our midst and the Semporna incident is just the beginning.

What next?

Are we just going to let these bastards continue enjoying the pleasures of our hospitality and kill our people, or we take drastic action to contain the problem by radical means before it gets out of hand.

Philippines President Aquino is a disgrace giving his time of day talking to the pretender Sultan (there are about half a dozen of them claiming to be the rightful heir to a non-existence throne, including one residing in Kg.Likas in KK), and they making a mockery of his impotent order. No suluks respect him, because he is inept, unfit and powerless to do what a president should have done.



Where in the world a private citizen is allowed to form his own army. 

Only in the Philippines, where law of the jungle prevails.

That by itself is already a crime and Aquino talking to the donkey is insulting the office of the presidency.

He is certainly a lame duck president and wet behind the ears and how the Filipino people can tolerate such kind of president is beyond comprehension.

To save his own skin he now mulls taking the Sulu claim to the International Court. 

First, let me ask him, does the Philippines government recognise legal entity of the Sultanate of Sulu in the present. If it does than he has to make the man as the Sultan or King of the whole of Philippines before he can lay claim to Sabah.

The Malaysian government should demand the Philippines government to arrest the bogus Sultan and charge him for murder. He has blood on his hand for the death of three of our security forces personnel.

Sabahans have tolerated this nonsense long enough and have allowed these people to reside on our lands peacefully and provide them with jobs, education and other public amenities that available to Malaysians are also made available to them and see how they repay our gratitude.........with guns and bullets.

Our government have shown great restraint under very trying time but they cheated our security forces by declaring a surrender but started shooting when our forces guards are down. These are acts of cowardice.

As there are many rumours floating around of Anwar's involvement in this terrible tragedy, which I shall give him benefit of the doubt, but, nevertheless, full investigation must be carried out to clear his name or otherwise. 

He is the only Malaysian leader who has close contact with Nur Misuari and the armed intrusion is supported by Misuari's faction.

Aquino should also investigate the claim of opposition Malaysian leader involvement from his side where the rumours first emerged.

Najib: Resolve The Problem Or Lose Sabah.

From the Taipei Times


Hantu Laut

The Sabah standoff with Filipinos terrorists have received wide coverage all over the world. 

Here in Taipei, the Taipei Times reported that only three were killed in the gun battle. Like always, the media never got their act together. The Malaysian media reported 15 death and 3 injured, out of which 2 Malaysian commandos were slain.

The question is, there were over 200 of them initially reported, what happened to the rest of them, have they surrendered or still holding fort, waiting for reinforcement?

Our security forces should give 24 hours notice for them to lay arms and surrender, failing which they should bomb the village to smithereens and take no prisoners. 

This is no time for sentiment or fear of reprisal, they have intruded into our land and killed 2 of our security forces, which we must deem as an act of war and must retaliate with the full force of our military power and without any consideration of the collateral damage that may come with the onslaught. 

The Federal government has full responsibility to protect us Sabahans from foreign aggression. 

As it happened under your watch you must take full responsibility of this most horrible tragedy, which has something to do with the RCI, the MNLF peace treaty you intermediate and last but not least the poor policing of our borders by security forces under your command.

If you don't take immediate reprisal action to countervail the uncalled for aggression by this foreign forces and protect us from further aggressions, we Sabahans will make sure you won't win the coming elections.

Please wipe out the menace once and for all, or you can say "goodbye to Sabah" for now and forever.

Rafizi, Malaysiakini,John Malott,Here's The EIU Report That Scares You, BN Is Strongly Positioned To Win

Hantu Laut 

What's the huge different between "likely to win", "will win" and "strongly positioned to win"

Unless, you are Rafizi Ramli, Malaysiakini and John Malott, who are pickers of trivialities, you won't want to be seen stupid splitting hairs. These guys not only have small minds, they are also pathetic liars, lousy propagandists and ego maniacal. 

Lies, lies, lies.  No where it is more apparent than in the quirky grouping called Pakatan Rakyat. Political oddballs cooking the devil's brew to cheat Malaysians.

PKR strategy chief Rafizi Ramli told FMT that the "EIU Report" that Barisan Nasional will win the 13th general elections is a complete spin by Bernama. 

It wasn't a spin, it was just a sex-up. The EIU did suggest BN the likely winner, strongly positioned to win.  Below is the EIU report, short and sweet.

You want to read the full report, you have to pay.

risk
January 2013BBBAABBBBBBBBB
Sovereign risk
Stable: The fiscal position is likely to remain weak in 2013-14 as the government struggles to implement fully its programme of subsidy rationalisation. But at the equivalent of an estimated 52.9% of GDP in 2012, public debt is manageable.
Currency risk
Stable: Malaysia's score is on the cusp of the A and BBB rating bands. Foreign-exchange reserves remain at healthy levels, but in the past year they have not grown as fast as in 2011, owing to weak export receipts.
Banking sector risk
Stable: Malaysia's banking risk rating has strengthened from BBB to A. The improvement reflects the relatively strong net foreign assets position of the country's commercial banks—a situation that is likely to persist in 2013-14.


Political risk
The ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition is expected to complete its term, which ends in April. The BN is likely to win the subsequent election, but it will struggle to secure enough parliamentary seats to give it the two-thirds majority that would allow it to amend the constitution unchallenged.
Economic structure risk
Exports of goods and services will continue to account for a large proportion of GDP, highlighting Malaysia’s dependence on external trade.

Bernama did not spin the report. The spinner is Malaysiakini linking the story to a general report on Asian countries and not specific "country report" which is only accessible upon payment to EIU.


Below is the short report that cost me US$26.





Malaysia Economic and Political Outlook

Country Report Malaysia February 2013

Outlook for 2013-17

Election watch

February 4th 2013
The next parliamentary election must be held by mid-2013. Mr Najib is likely to make the performance of the economy a central plank of the BN's campaign and will emphasise the fact that, despite the gloomy global economic situation, the government's policies have helped to bolster domestic growth. The BN will also craft its campaign to appeal to voters in states where it lost control of the local assemblies to the PR at the last elections in 2008. Meanwhile, the opposition alliance is likely to focus its election campaign on the need to uphold the political and economic rights and interests of all Malaysians. The election will see the cash-strapped PR  pitted against the BN's well-oiled political machine. The BN is strongly positioned to win, although its likely margin of victory remains unclear. Mr Najib has worked hard to present himself as being committed to economic and social reform. However, this stance has yet to resonate with Malaysia's ethnic minorities, which make up around one-third of the electorate and whose members mostly voted for the PR in the 2008 election.

Malaysian Polls Reflect US-China Competition


Nile Bowie

Asia Times

KUALA LUMPUR - In a bid to garner public support and win back several economically dynamic states lost to the opposition in 2008, Malaysia's ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition has introduced a series of populist measures to appeal to voters. But while the upcoming election will be decided mostly on domestic issues, the polls will also reflect rising US-China competition for influence in the country. 

Following the 2008 global economic crisis, Prime Minister Najib Razak looked to Beijing to revive Malaysia's export-oriented economy, emphasizing increased Chinese investment in Malaysian industry. The premier has also moved to expand Sino-Malaysian exchange in areas such as finance, infrastructure development, science and technology, and education. 


China is now Malaysia's largest trading partner, with trade reaching US$90 billion in 2011. Malaysia is China's largest trading partner in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). During a visit to China's Guangxi autonomous region last year, Najib officiated the launch of the China-Malaysia Qinzhou Industrial Park (QIP), a joint development by a Malaysian consortium of companies. 
At the event, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao paid tribute to Najib's late father, Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, who established diplomatic ties with China in 1974 during his tenure as Malaysia's second prime minister. Malaysia was the first non-communist country in Southeast Asia to establish official ties with the People's Republic of China. Under Najib, 2014 has been designated as "Malaysia-China Friendship Year", while China has loaned two pandas to Malaysia for 10 years to mark the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations. Read more.
