Next Change - Anwar turns on the heat
Anwar Ibrahim's Press Conference 2.30pm 18 September, 2008.
| PC Part I | PC Part II | PC Part III |
PM Abdullah Badawi, yesterday dismissed Pakatan Rakyat's Anwar Ibrahim request, in a manner most impeccable, to meet and discuss matters of paramount importance affecting the nation. Prior to this, in the last few days 3 Malaysian citizens, Raja Petra Kamaruddin, Teresa Kok MP and Tan, Sin Chiew's journalist, were dragged into detention under the draconian Internal Security Act (ISA). Another, blogger Syed Azidi Syed Aziz or "Kickdefella" has since been taken in, in similar unjustifiable manner. The journalist Tan, has since been released.
In his Press Conference recorded today, Anwar Ibrahim expressed disappointment in the most puerile manner, Abdullah treated the matter, in addition to the scare tactics evidenced by the ISA arrests.
We have a working constitution and supposedly functioning system of laws, only to be looked upon in disdain and dishonor by the country's most eminent person in dismissing the constitutional and courteous approach embarked upon by the Opposition's leader.
You might wish to consider yourself the arguments put forth in the recorded Press Conference held at 2.30 pm today, 18 September, 2008. [CLICKING twice opens the video to a bigger display.]

HONEYMOON TOURS: Evenings in Taipeh for BN MPs
{Indigenous Taiwanese}
Some anthropologists historians believe early Malaysians might
have come from Taiwan
"...Tiong King Sing, chairman of the National Front Backbenchers Club, said more than 40 lawmakers flew to Taiwan for an agricultural study tour Monday and that around 10 more will join them Tuesday. The trip will stretch through next week, but there is no confirmed date for their return.
Tiong denied the visit was timed to foil Anwar's threat. ..." - AP
Our MPs work very hard. In this Ramadhan they should be given breaks. They'll need those for the fasting.
Would you not wonder whether Pak Lah really isn't such a bad guy, after all? He could have obtained Taiwanese citizenship for them so they really don't need to return. Even if they do, their old passports will not be worth the paper they're printed on.
If you ask for my opinion, the 190 or so left could leave with those and don't have to come back. I'm sure they would be welcome in very many places. Zimbabwe would need inputs of fresh funds for their bustling economy, which many may refute to be more like busted, with inflation at some 700%.
Our inflation rate is now something like 1.75% of that making it feel like double digit. If you like 3-D, you can go see Magnum.

FUSION: Hari Ini | Today | Reason rhymed, youth in years
KRU croons Ramlee
Losing your lot in translation is easy. I'm trying to figure out what P Ramlee is saying. Some say it's this:
The stirring of my soul
Overcomes my heart
Arranged by the notes
Of rhythm and song
If it's only modest
Nevermind
Perhaps it could stir
Realise all you mortals
.
Never will they vanish
Rhythm and song
It will bloom
It will always linger
If they be seperated
The song and rhythm and song
They'll be soulless and weak
And empty
I think it's this:
It quakes and it shakes
In its path miseries unbaked
But in rythmn there's rhyme
soundless muted in mime
silence tears up no sky
But it calls, Awake! Ask why
Reason with rhyme
Will march in time
As rich in blooms
In hopes past glooms
Or rythmn Reason less rhyme
limps plundered and asunder
Leaves hopes forlorn
embittered defeated unwon
Or so, it goes! Curse me, if you like!!!
