Oh dear, I guess you can’t please everyone.
“BN Partyman” sent in this comment, which contains a none-too-subtle threat.
Dear Anil,
Your biased live coverage of the PP buy-election was disgusting to say the least. It seemed like the Barisan Nasional was non-existent in PP. The fact that more than 15,000 people voted for Arif Shah is testimony to BN’s popularity. If it were not for the rough house tactics of the PKR goons, more legitimate voters would have made it to the polling stations. You and your ilk ought to be detained under the ISA and the keys thrown away.
You are partisan, unfair, biased, and a false witness to the events in PP. Like the 31,000 odd who voted for Anwar, you are ungrateful for the development and progress wrought by the BN. Honestly ask yourself: Would you even own a laptop or even know how to use the Internet if not for the education that the BN gave you? Just like the other bloggers and commentators on the blogsites, you bite the hand that feeds you. You are despicable and so is Raja Petra and the likes of him.
When the BN government finally wipes out the Opposition from the face of this Earth, we’ll be coming after you and all of your ilk for the lies and ridiculous untrue propaganda that you spread to the innocent rakyat. Unfortunately it seems now that a large minority of the rakyat are stupid enough to pay attention to the lies of the Opposition. The BN will educate them very soon and I assure you it will be a painful lesson indeed.
BN Sakthi!!!
Perhaps this should be seen in the context of the following excerpt from a 14 August news report from Al Jazeera:
‘Irresponsible media’
“In the name of freedom, these websites allow the broadcast of slander, lies and swearing, the use of harsh, degrading language and racial slurs without regard for the reader or those concerned” Najib Abdul Razak, Malaysian deputy prime minister
On Tuesday Malaysia’s de facto law minister, Mohd Nazri Aziz, warned that it was “time to act” against what the government considers to be irresponsible or inflamatory blogging.Speaking in Malaysia’s parliament he said preventive detention laws could be used against bloggers who raise issues the government considers as being sensitive to Malaysia’s multi-ethnic, multi-religious population.His comments were echoed by Najib Abdul Razak, the Malaysian deputy prime minister, who told a gathering of the Malaysian Press Institute on Tuesday evening that the government was deeply troubled by the growth of what he called “irresponsible” alternative media.He said bloggers needed to exercise moderation in postings which discuss race and religion or risk official action.Webmasters and web journalists, he said, are not exempted from Malaysian laws.“In the name of freedom, these websites allow the broadcast of slander, lies and swearing, the use of harsh, degrading language and racial slurs without regard for the reader or those concerned,” the New Straits Times quoted him as saying.“Even though the government has been tolerant of anti-government positions and criticisms on the Internet, we are very concerned about statements that insult religion and reek of racism,” he added.The warning comes amid increasingly frank discussions on the internet of such hot-topic issues as Malaysia’s status as an Islamic state, allegedly unjust policies and political corruption.

I forgot to Thank you Anil for the wonderful “live coverage” of the recent polls. We, the citizens would now have to rely on your updates dearly especially with the Damned Govt’s removal of Raja Petra’s Malaysia Today.
Stay Strong and continue to be the patriotic Malaysian we all know. However, I hope you won’t be too critical of Penang’s modernisation and development. Heritage status or not, honestly… Penang ideally requires progressive development on par with those of Singapore and Hong Kong.
… oh we have our Pulau Jerejak and opinions are that it should be managed to the likes of Sentosa Island, on one condition, to be managed by a foreigner with good record.

To BN Sakthi,
Haven’t you got anything to say about the biased reporting in the mainstream papers as well as the electronic media. Surprised me! It’s just like what the Malay proverb says, “Nyamuk di seberang laut nampak, gajah di depan mata tak kelihatan”
Arif Shah’s popularity is not enough to “whack” Anwar as some BN goons and “whackies” (especially the Wanita UMNO who was on a jihad mission and KJ who had wanted Anwar buried, I mean his political future) had very wanted it to be.
ISA? Typical of BN cohorts, you cannot accept loss and would resort to threats like the use of ISA. When you’re down, then you blame it on “rough tactics”. What if BN had won the by-election?
Ungrateful to BN for the development and progress brought by BN? You must be really pea-brained. Do you know that the thinking and planning is done by civil servants and the private sector and the financing by the tax payers? With our rich resources, the country should have done much, much better but with corruption and inefficiency within the ruling parties, this is where we end up. It’s not a question of biting the hand that feeds. The rakyat is getting only crumbs whereas BN cronies walk away smiling to the banks. …
Is the rakyat so stupid to pay attention to the Opposition? No, it’s the members of the ruling parties (that includes you) that should not be so stupid and had better start paying attention to and looking into what their leaders (and cronies) are doing instead of blindly giving support to them.
Makkal Sakhti!!!

Dear Anil
I think you did a great job. This BN goon is a coward who can only give treats. He talks about the so called education the BN gave us. Bull s***, he is so dumb, he does not realise whatever little the BN does for the rakyat is done using the taxpayers money which is out money, so its not like the BN did anything free for us. The BN is out servants and they should be grateful to the rakyat and not the other way around. Only dumb BN goons who has their brains in the wrong head would say such things.
…
Before these BN goons and gangsters treaten people, they should realise the people not stupid anymore. Why does he not talk about the bias reports given by the media and TV. Why condemn bloggers just because they give a true picture of what is actually happening.
The 15,000 votes that BN won (could have included) those won by (alleged) cheating and (alleged) phantom voters who managed to get through despite the few buses being stopped by PR. Does he think the people are that stupid, we cant see that BN is a racist goverment who only cares about their own well being and using the rakyat as a pawn in their dirty game. This goon must be one of those croonies who have benefited from all the corruption.
Anyway, ignore such (people) as they say, ‘empty barrels makes most noise’. They are good for nothing accept telling lies.
Once again, good job and its really appreciated even more so now with Raja Petra’s site being blocked. We need people like you to keep us updated.
Thanks

Anil, we would support you and am grateful for your tireless report on the actual ground feel than what is potrayed in MSM. This chap can call you names but we are stronger than that.
As for UMNO/ BN, after 51 years… where race superiority is preached, it is time to change. As for development, it is like budget RM100 for development and take RM50 for self. Yes, lousy development thank you.

I have been an avid read of this blog for some time, have not commented till I saw this. Here’s my 2 cents for BN Sakthi.
Let’s start with facts (generally acceptable approach).
Biased Coverage :
Is it not a fact that all the mainstream media was providing biased coverage for BN. Because of this people have no choice but to resort to Anil’s biased coverage of PKR. So nothing unfair here. You have your media, the opposition have their media.
FACT : People are entitled to their own opinions and have every right to choose what they believe.
15,000 votes :
Similar to my point above, you win some you lose some. People are entitled to their own beliefs and actions. The only question here is, even with all the “big guns presence”, the gifts given and all the promises only 15,000 votes for secured. BN should try and find out why only 15,000 votes came and fix those problems to get more votes. “The Permatang Pauh by-election results is a clear message for Barisan Nasional, Umno and its leaders. Within five months after the March 8 polls, Barisan lost the seat again, with a bigger majority than the last time – Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
FACT : Face reality as it is, not as it was or as you wish it would be.
Development :
You must remember civilizations will always progress, immaterial of political parties. The world has progressed through many ages just by people advancing themselves. Computers and internet progress and advance on their own accord as technology advances. We pay taxes and internet fees and hence have a right to use these facilities and technological advances. It has not been given to us. Plus we do end up paying a lot more than we should to use some these facilities (not for debate today).
FACT : Life goes on.
Opposition :
Not sure if BN education will help to “swing” the stupid rakyat opinions and thoughts.
FACT : Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. ~ Albert Einstein.

I wonder whether “UMNO Sakhti” actually believes what he wrote.
Or is he hoping that those reading his words – Anil and Anil’s blog readers (including simple minded or die-hard or hard-core crony types from UMNO) – may swallow his thrash?
Either way, sad case.

when looking at MSM, the only thing that is true is the sport section… no wonder most people buy papers read from the back-front.. the blog scene came about because of biased reporting in MSM…
“more legitimate voters would have made it to the polling stations”
haha..80% is a high turnout when you consider the situation (weekday,rain,jam, police, fru..etc). yes BN also got thousands of votes, but hey isnt this an election? so majority wins.. like the present government because they are the majority, that is why they are governing… so emotional laa that guy..

Dear “BN Pantyman”
I would like to reply to you as well in defense of Anil’s good job in bringing us another side of story,,
Dear Anil,
* Your biased live coverage of the PP buy-election was disgusting to say the least.
[It is very balance coverage as mainstream media hogs the TV and radio on BN's behalf, what else is biased, I am happily reading another side of story.]
It seemed like the Barisan Nasional was non-existent in PP.
[Yes, it is in existence, that was why it fielded a candidate called Arif Shah which I liked as well]
The fact that more than 15,000 people voted for Arif Shah is testimony to BN’s popularity.
[Yes, no doubt about it, but he lost in that election, right ?]
If it were not for the rough house tactics of the PKR goons, more legitimate voters would have made it to the polling stations.
[Please-lah, through out my years of growing up, I have seen BN goons and thugs did the same to some of us , decent Rakyat, just that this time you are the receiving end, so get use to it]
You and your ilk ought to be detained under the ISA and the keys thrown away.
[Wah ! is that a threat -ah ?]
You are partisan, unfair, biased, and a false witness to the events in PP.
[Hardly, I just reported what I saw only]
Like the 31,000 odd who voted for Anwar, you are ungrateful for the development and progress wrought by the BN.
[Sorry to say, development is not "wrought", but "brought" using Tax payer money and it does not belong to BN either. Just that those in BN thought that Tax payer money like their own pocket money and people should be grateful to BN, sorry, I pay a lot of income tax, that included maybe your payroll as well]
Honestly ask yourself: Would you even own a laptop or even know how to use the Internet if not for the education that the BN gave you?
[Sorry, I paid for my own education, I bought my own laptop, unlike you, needed someone to do you favor to give you education and you need to feel grateful for life]
Just like the other bloggers and commentators on the blogsites, you bite the hand that feeds you.
[No one feeds me, except my own father and also, I made most of my own living without stealing from hardworking tax payer Rakyat]
You are despicable and so is Raja Petra and the likes of him.
[If you disliked Raja Petra, that is your own matter with him]
When the BN government finally wipes out the Opposition from the face of this Earth, we’ll be coming after you and all of your ilk for the lies and ridiculous untrue propaganda that you spread to the innocent rakyat.
[No one is going to wipe out anyone, this is just changing political climate, if you cannot see the simple fact that someone can rule better than BN, then, that is sad tragic of your behavior as product of "BN's development and progress"]
Unfortunately it seems now that a large minority of the rakyat are stupid enough to pay attention to the lies of the Opposition.
[I am not going to apologize for your stupidity and please do not insult the Rakyat, Rakyat is the one paying the tax and they are far smarter now , unlike you]
The BN will educate them very soon and I assure you it will be a painful lesson indeed.
[Oh please, looking at your grammatical errors in writing done with half threatening manner, spare us your "education", it is only going to make matter worse]
BN Sakthi!!!
]
[That sounds more like it

Supposedly your father is a mafia/yakuza who made millions out of drugs, prostitutes, smuggling of WMD and etc. And your father used this dirty money to send you to top schools and universities, gives you a laptop perhaps and eventually you came out wanted to be a policeman (I know it is a bad example). Would you arrest your father for the crimes he committed? Or you will just bite your own **** that created you into this world?
P/S: Is the MSM is not biased and fair in PP by-election reporting? Another bodoh felle who speaks from his a**. Can’t blame you… Barisan N…. Partyman, cakap pun serupa n…..

“Honestly ask yourself: Would you even own a laptop or even know how to use the Internet if not for the education that the BN gave you?”
My question then to you would be this,”If the BN has such a wonderful education system in place, why is it that we still have 100,000 graduates from local universities who cannot find employment? Why the need for a racist institution such as UiTM?”
I’m currently giving free tuition to the less fortunate kids as well as computer training classes, and daresay that not only has the current education system here failed to take care of the least among us, but most of them are too ill-equipped to tackle the challenges of a brave new world. I don’t like to be seen as favoring PR myself, but at the rate the BN is running this country into the ground, I do not see why they even deserve my support.

Anil,
I’m absolutely at a loss for words after reading this letter. This so-called “BN Sakthi’s” letter really reeks of ignorance, stupidity and childishness combined together.
I’m only afraid if there are more of his kind, what would we become. Hopefully, that is not the case.
Education and painful lessons? Yes, it pains me extremely reading this kind of stupid comment from a so-called ‘educated’ person from BN.
As for the Al Jazeera’s report, i would not waste my time commenting on Najib’s statement. He and his thinking is beyond repair.
Now, if you’ll excuse me while relieve myself of this trash that has temporarily slip into ‘me’ brain while trying to ‘comprehend’ this letter from an ‘educated’ mind.
