- Malacca tales
The Peon has done it all…the Peon way…It is like trying to win the best kampong concept..and Malacca would be tops in the kampong category no doubt…only problem is ..it is supposed to be a city…alive on the weekends, courtesy of Singaporeans and KLites and dead on week days….Empty beachside (now highway side)condos and ghostly hotels on weekdays are testimony to this…it’s … eerie if ou ask me…no more charm..all that green save for the cemetery is all but gone..
And why the airport. The blinking city needs an efficient train service linking KL and Singapore…that’s it…but you dont expect the Peon to understand that…that would be too much economics for him…
Malacca is truly a dead heritage city. No one is going to hop onto that ferris wheel and if we wanted malls…we would stay back in KL or Singapore…
- Costs soar after health services privatised
… We can have the best system in the world like the French. But if we have crooks … running the show …then God help us. - Govt-owned ‘private’ hospitals
The biggest government hospital that is privatised … has to be the Institute Jantung Negara. Shockingly they charged RM4500 for an angiogram when it would have cost about RM 3000 in a Penang private Hospital.IJN apparently belongs to the Ministry of Finance. ..the government. What rubbish is this. It’s free only for civil servants. And why the monopoly. I could have taken my uncle to Lam Wah Ee and paid far less if the government wanted to foot the bill.
The PR when they come to power must ensure that either prices remain reasonable or ….just shut down this monopoly and let patients go anywhere they like and subsidise their bills….
Sheesh…
- Don’t release GM mosquitoes
Ha! ha1 What a … joke…It just goes to show how far behind our Ministry of Health fellas and IMR are in the battle against dengue. Give me two years and I promise you I will wipe out Dengue in Malaysia…but first I want this government and half the Ministry officials out…
- Mahidol University and Pornthip
I was at Mahidol for some time…The culture there is completely different from Malaysian Universities…it is live and let live policy…no such thing as (sideline) the (minorities), etc…they treat everyone with respect and kindness….In Malaysian Univeresities, th kulit comes first…further, they respect each other and they are taught about respect for elders, life, etc.
And very importantly, they are a stickler for principles…Porntnip is living evidence of that.

Congrats Anil on the number of hits. I am shocked, never seen it touch 17,000 before in a day!
I guess you are one of the few neutral bloggers around giving impartial advice.
Btw, what happened to the famous long haired blogger who is now picking on Karpal? Is he now writing for his political masters?
hidup pakatan!!!!ds nizar,perakians should be very2 grateful to have u as their mb.teruskan perjuangan,the GOD wil bless u all.
Are the Americans watching this…..
Hanya ada usul PERCAYA kepada Nizar, tiada usul TIDAK PERCAYA kepada Zambry. Adakah Sidang DUN mengiktiraf 2 orang ADUN tersebut sebagai MB Perak?
Hi, just wondered how was the reaction of BN supporters when the assembly was on? Did they really follow the order of the Speaker to remain silent? That was interesting though… i thought they first blocked the PR assembly persons from entering the secretariat and now they were ok of letting the assembly move forward “smoothly”??
Why is everyone over-reacting, I’m not trying to spoil the mood here but I believe that we would not achieve anything here if UMNO is still controlling the police, army, judiciary and all the important roles in governing the country.
…
What can you do? and again I’m not here to tell story. I just feel that they will do anything when they are desperate.
We want leaders and terminators….but BN is strongly forming the terminators. Let d ppl decide. If ppl wanted BN than y PKR won…? BN is forcing themself on Perak…its like rape on the state…taking control without the ppl’s consent.
Dear neutral man, looks like u memang org BE END,another low IQ group….baik baca paper B EN ajelah esok.
To PR n IR MB NIZAR n TEAM God Bless U,so clear or u sincereness down to earth manner.Agaknya bila nak tngk org B eN,jalan macam historic leaders like mahatma gandi.
Buddha found enlightenment under a tree.
Malaysian democracy rights have to operate under the tree. It is a big joke !
Now, Malaysia is worst than Burma …
When the ruling government run out of their patient,ugly things might just happened, so be strong and prepared for the worst to come.
A Tree Knelt In Praise
I know that I shall never see
A poem that bows quite like our tree
A tree who like us loved to pray
In adoration every day
A tree who humbly knelt in praise
To God and never chose to raise
Itself above the other trees
Instead remained as if on knees
A tree who gave our scholars shade
And never asked that it be paid
A tree whose needles never hurt
But gently fell upon the dirt
A tree whose worth cannot be told
Or ever lent or bought with gold
A tree who showed us all its height
With God by bowing with delight
It taught us all to clearly see
A Garden lies beneath a tree
And then it showed us with a sigh
That trees, like us, must also die
In an age of folly, play and mirth
A tree has died with brow on earth
- Hamza Yusuf / March 2005
I believe the sitting place under the tree will be a turning point for Malaysian Politics!!! 3000 years ago the buddha is believed to be awaken to the ultimate truth and attain enligntenment under the boddhi tree in india……… Hopefully after this sitting in Perak the citizen of Malaysia will also be awaken to the truth of Malaysian Politics!!!!!!!!!
pic 12.21 is histrolic !
Great Anil. TQ. GBU
Hidup Demokrasi! Hidup Bangsa Malaysia! May the Almighty protects the innocent and guides us to the correct path.
The events that are unfolding in Ipoh today is indeed historical, a moving and touching events. It shows the determination of a dedicated few. The peoples of Perak are touch and move to tears. BN wake up …
I am so proud to be a Perakian. Today in history. The God is watching, the whole world is watching. All we ask for is another election. Why the B END is so coward and caused so much misery to Malaysians? We shall not live another day blinded by these corrupts and gansgters. We want a truly Malaysian country to be led by wiseman like Nizar.
Anil, what happened after lunch? Too much suspenselah.
Salam brothers and sisters and fellow countrymen .. and especially to you Perakians .. May Allah s.w.t bless each and everyone of you .. all of us god’s creation .. the rakyat .. are with you ..
“The believers are nothing else but brothers” (The Noble Quran 49:10)
The Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. said “The believer with respect to another believer is like a building, one portion strengthening the other.”
I am overwhelmed with emotions and words could not express how I feel at the moment .. but 1 thing I do know .. is I’m hopeful and I pray that .. democracy and justice will prevail .. insya-allah .. Lets make sure all of our voices heard through the upcoming event .. May Allah s.w.t bless and protect each and everyone of you YBs and all of us god’s creation .. peace and god bless
and thanks to you anil .. may Allah s.w.t bless you and the rest of your family always .. (.“)
Boss…what is happening there Bro…any news on the court proceedings
” it’s DONE ! tq LORD, amen !” GODBLESS !!
Thanks Anil for keeping us posted, I am watching this from UK. Democracy is still alive today in Perak.
wassup anil?
So much comments n prayers about the tree and other events but in reality i do not think BN is going to recognize the proceedings nor will the Sultan dissolve the assembly.
tonights MSM will tarnish the name of the speaker n PR MPs even further. …
lets hurt the msm seriously….dont just stop buying NST, Star etc…they dont get hurt that way only the poor newspaper vendor gets hurt. U wanna kick the BN controlled MSM where it hurts..stop buying products from companys that advertise in them . Write to these companys telling them to pull out their advertisments or u will boycott their products.
Can we Malaysians serious about change do this?????
In tamil there is a saying which when translated is when the foot of a man who is not claver is stuk in somethig very dirty he spreads it to a thousand parts of the body before claening it. The wise man does at the beginning what the not so claver man does at the end.
Great reporting Anil…keep it up & thank you.
For PR’s DSAI, MB Tan Sri Khalid, CM LGE , MB Ahmad Nizar, YB Sivakumar, RPK, etc.
You are our “Defenders of Truth, Justice, Equality & Freedom” and have all done everything that is “Humanly” possible….
But “Do Not” give up the fight & struggle for this great nation & the rayaat….

God Almighty “Hears & Feels” the Call, the Pain & the Despair of the downtrodden rayaat.
- Former Lord President Tun Mohamed Suffian Hashim repeatedly insisted in his foundational written texts…
- that in Malaysia, the Constitution and nothing but the Constitution is “the Supreme Law of the land”.
- Malaysia cannot afford to see Constitutional principles imperilled, and constitutional processes jeopardised….
— not even out of an understandable impatience, or a conscientious determination, to see the urgent political and practical problems of the day speedily resolved.
Remember “What goes round, will come round to these Desperate UMNO…” – Past, Present & Future.
The “Opressors” will “FAIL” & God Almighty will ensure “Justice” will be done.
Do keep up your “Prayers” to God Almighty in your own way for “Sanity, Human Rights, Justice, Freedom, Equality & Peace to “Prevail” over “EVIL”
Devine Intervention works Wonders.

“Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.”

May God bless, guide & protect ALL our “Defenders of Truth, Justice, Equality & Freedom, this great nation, its remaining assets & its Anak Bangsa Malaysia forthwith.

Brilliant Move man!!! Simply astounding!..BN will look more stupid then they already are. This is a first in this modern era..keep going,the people’s power will eventually win…Umno/BN is simply disgusting and have stoop very low in trying to win back all the states they lost..especially in Perak ,PR should keep going…the people are well aware of whats going on and what the stinking BN regime is trying to accomplished.The next 13th GE will be the end for this cruel BN regime.
Umno with MCA,MIC and Gerakan will be kick out for good. The corruption is so bad ,its part of the BN regime’s way of life. We will have a tough time to get this great nation of ours back onto the right track.The Perak government tussle will let the whole world to see what type of BN government we have. BN can’t hide under the MSM forever, the internet and SMS will be their downfall.!! What is BN regime going to do? Snatch the Handphone / PC/Laptops away? Cheers!!!.

[...] Netto’s report here and a poem on the historic tree here. in Animal Kingdom, Asian Democracy, [...]
Buddha was enlightened under the Bodhi tree. Malaysian was enlightened of how ugly was the ruling party especially UMNO under the Democratic trees.
Do something PR, before they do something to all of you. Don’t wait until GE13 because by that time our RM 96 billion reserves will definitely dried up.
They took the Perak Govt away and thought that things will be over in a couple of months and no one will talk about it. Well, YOU ARE WRONG MR BE END….You will eventually end all your powers if you dig your own grave. The PR supporters are like angels protecting the good from your nasty evil schemes. We wont let you take Perak from us…that’s for sure – ….. Even if it was a tree, it was for the sake of the people – that was the beauty!
PRAISE THE LORD… KEEP IT UP AND DON’T LOSE OUT. GOD is watching everything.
Woke up and while sitting,
nearly fell off the chair when watching groggily agog the drama taking place in Perakland this morning under that surely very
democratic V-tree which looked like it was firmly standing there and offering its protective evergreen leafy shade to the Perakites’ strong parliamentary sovereignty roots.
WE SAY YEAH! & NO TO ISA!
AND HARIS FOR AG & RPK FOR IGP! Go for DSAI for PM & LKS for DPM & WAN AZIZAH for Home Minister.
2009 Resolution: Seek out all garbage and recycle or dispose post haste for a healthier life and planet!
Hi
UMNO is not breed in constitutional jurisprudence, they slip civil jurisprudence and they lost islamic constitutional jurisprudence. What kind of judgment do they practice and preach? …
I heard the 2pm updated news over the radio about the Perak affairs and could not help but notice the humorous outcome of the whole sordid drama churned out by UMNO’s cowardly tactics. Syabas! To the Speaker Siva, MB Nizar and team!
If God be God…the truly righteous and fair and just God…PR will emerge the final victor… But the corrupted cheats…in high or low or not-so-low places will SOON be put to shame/pasture.
As to Mr neutral man…you are hardly neutral…esp in your insistence that they go thru the courts of justice which are far from neutral or fair… UMNO has no respect for the country and the people…UMNO chose and chooses to use underhanded methods of stealing power…! To think UMNO would sink so low to welcome (morally suspect reps) to add weight to their team to snatch power… clearly shows UMNO’s warped integrity/morality….! UMNO must be put to pasture! NO BETTER OPTION FOR THEM!
Because God is LORD GOD ALMIGHTY and HE is FAIR and JUST and RIGHTEOUS, HE can never favour UMNO’s CORRUPTED … ways!!!
God’s wrath is going to fall on those who call good evil, and evil good… MAY THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE JUST SHINE BRILLIANTLY! MAY THE CORRUPT AND THE CORRUPTED BE BLOWN AWAY LIKE CHAFF WHEN THE WIND OF GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT SWEEPS ACROSS MALAYSIA…TO CLEAN UP AND CLEANSE THE LAND, OF ABSOLUTE FOULNESS BROUGHT ABOUT BY 51 YEARS OF GREED… BY UMNO, TO GRATIFY THEIR INSATIABLE IMMORAL APPETITE OF PERPETUAL DEGRADATION/DECAY OF ALL KINDS! …
It’s time to kick the UMNO out from Perak. We hope for some positive answer from the palace, where it will make way for a snap election in Perak as soon as possible.
