  1. I’m praying along with others here for peace for Perak, for the Sultan and I can’t help adding ‘that God frustrate the plans of the wicked’…

    I’m looking at the Psalm for today and I see where it says…’Le Seigneur élève les humbles et rabaisse jusqu’à terre les impies’. The Lord lifts up the lowly, but casts the wicked to the ground. Amen.

  2. Thanks, Anil, for the excellent coverage – hanging on to your every update.

    I hope Perakians see that Nizar/PR’s rakyat-friendly measures were an integral part of PR’s philosophy and stated objectives.

    In contrast, Zambry/BN’s ostentatious display of largesse (brownies or crumbs) is crude, arbitrary and coldly calculated to win allegiance/power. I would not have joined the applause if he had offered my school orchestra RM30,000 or my temple RM100,000 under those circumstances.

    There’s a vital and fundamental difference.

    With $$$ being thrown at them left, right and centre, I hope the Perakians will not be ‘won over’ by the next elections. If they are, then they will have no business condemning the frogs now.

  6. The way MB Nizar was treated cannot be accepted by many. MB Nizar that I know of is such a gentleman. He was and is a humble and pleasant person who has charisma of sort to become a leader. A good leader, sincere and not tainted with any scandal is liked by almoat all the people in Perak. Even many of his adversaries in politics like him. He should remain as the MB of Perak because of his positive attributes. No, he has not condemned the palace, never. The BN controlled media is confusing the people – a great sin, this is. The royalty, he respects and this is without doubt. What he feels not right is that the process to dismiss his governmwnt is flawed. Many agree with this. Constitutionally, he is right. BN controlled media is playing a ‘damaging’ game. The more they do this, the more people will hate BN. The best solution to this impasse is to go back to the people. Let the people decide who they want. This is democracy.

  7. Dear Anil
    Thank you for updating us on what is happening on the ground in Perak. We will miss you when you return to Penang tomorrow. The number of people at the MB’s residence tonight shows a very strong support for the legitimate government of Perak, Hidup PR

  14. I was surprised that the news of the 35,000 crowd was not on any blog but yours and it was not on Malaysiakini until I realised it is because of the negative treatment the ‘guards’ meted out towards journalist and bloggers.
    The psychological impact of the event is lost !

  15. Dear Anil
    Please don’t get upset about PAS screening journalists. The public have for a very long time now asked the Opposition Coalition to do this especially during the campaigning period for the March 8 elections.

    The mainstream media are rotten in their reporting, twisting and turning facts and I kept wondering for a long time why the Coalition is still allowing them into their conferences. I’ve even asked mainstream journalists why they bother coming when they are going to write fiction anyway. They looked very uncomfortable and one or two told me that they report the “truth” but their editors change what they write.

    So I’m actually in support of PAS filtering out the “liars” and “spin doctors”.

  17. Maybe there’s a silver lining to the crisis.
    I’ve seen with my own eyes, the Malays, the Chinese and the Indians mingling together at the MB’s house…united by their support for Nizar.
    I really hope that this is the manifestation of issue-based politics rather than race-based politics in Malaysia.

  19. They should now ask Mohd Nizar to fight for the Bukti Gantang parliament side.

    Imagine the peoples victory if Mohd Nizar wins.

    This will be a slap in teh face of …BN.

    Not uncommon to have MBs also as MPs.

    Khalid Ibrahim and Lim Guan Eng to name just 2.

    Mohd Nizar for Parliament.!!!

    If Mohd Nizar wins, this will b a real slap in the face of people like Najib Razak… and if Mohd Nizar wins, we have the moral standing even for the Perak state assembly.

    Pls pls ask Perak PAS to nominate Mohd Nizar for parliament.

    You need to do it.

  20. I salute for your courage and principle. Fight corruption at all level. One day even UMNO will realise the well being of Malaysia is due to very few people like you.

  22. Dear Anil:

    The Opposition MPs should boycott all the sittings for about 3 months.

    The useless Bar Council chairman should be dismissed and she
    should be asked to return the Datoship; There have many illustrious sons as Chairmen but none of them were given Datoship; ….

    Again, she is not firm and supporting the administration. On the whole the BAR has become VERY inactive body.

    In India, the Bar IS SO POWERFUL THAT IT Can shake the Federal and State Governments because they are a determined lot. Do you know the number of Committees the Bar has: more than the government committees. Not Even in the UK the Bar has so many committees.

    Something wrong somewhere; this did not happen during 1960-1980.

    “Where the laws are not supreme
    there do demogogues spring up”
