What I believe
I believe in a world where justice and peace rules, where all human beings (and not just a privileged few) will be treated with the dignity that is theirs as the children of the one God.
I believe in a world where the economy serves the people and not the other way around.
I believe that it has become even more urgent for us now to become stewards of the environment and to hold corporations and political leaders accountable for their wrongdoings.
I believe in the love, justice, compassion, simplicity and deep peace that Jesus (and many great women and men down the ages) taught us – not the materialism, consumerism, avarice, hatred, violence and war that the power structures of the day promote.
I believe in people-centred globalisation – a globalisation of solidarity – not corporate-led globalisation that promotes a world ruled by corporations aided by greedy politicians, bureaucrats and tycoons acting in cahoots with one another.
I believe that real journalism serves the interests of ordinary people and holds to account the powers-that-be and their associated vested political, business and corporate interests.
Well said. I am all for it.
Cheers
Josh

In the worst of difficulties, Mother Theresa saw the play of the divine and, in serving the dying poor, she discovered the mercy of Jesus. Mother Theresa called it “meeting Christ in his distressing disguise”
An old Tibetan Lama who was thrown into a Chinese prison for eighteen years said that he viewed his prison guards and torturers as his greatest teachers. There he says, he learned the compassion of a Buddha. It is this spirit that allows the Dalai Lama to refer to the communist Chinese who have occupied and destroyed his country as, “my friends, the enemy”.
It is impossible to sin when you live in love, truth and awareness. When the majority in the society lives in love, truth and awareness, then unconscious politicians will become a thing of the past. Spirituality will be infused into politics by the group consciousness which lives in love, truth and awareness.
Our job is to raise our awareness and, if allowed to, help others raise their awareness. That will help the group consciousness to live in love, truth and awareness.
You are doing a good job towards that end.
The meek shall inherit the earth.
Blessed Be.

I believe that religion divides people. Organized religion breeds power mongering and corruption.
The ignorant need religion but the wise believe in God and respect the laws of nature as nature is a manifestation of God.
Jesus didn’t come to start a new religion but just advised people to respect God in nature.
Many christians today go to church every Sunday but are absolutely clueless about the teachings of Jesus thanks to St.Paul the Roman centurion, the Roman empire and the Roman Catholic church.
One can see how far they have deviated form the true teachings of Jesus and the Essenes. That’s why in US when parents entrusted priests to take care of their children because they saw them as role models, the priests instead sexually abused them.
The main activity of priests/ministers should be healing of the sick. This was how Jesus and the apostles evangelized. They became well known in contemporary Jewish society for their ability to heal the sick. Today our priests are busy saying masses, building churches, administering the 7 sacraments (and fainting during mass – (one priest) fainted in church one Sunday during mass. Poor chap was not taught the healing teachings of Jesus in seminary).
After killing thousands of innocent Iraqians, Britons, and Americans in their war for oil, George Bush is given a special audience by Pope Benedict and Tony Blair is baptized a Catholic by the Pope. (I feel) this was done to show Catholics worldwide that the church approves of what Bush and Blair did in their war for oil. The Axis of evil is Bush, Blair and Benedict.

I don’t follow the so-called “christian” teachings of churches of the world today. I only follow the true teachings of Jesus.
I’m not obssessed with healing the sick. Just following the teachings of Jesus. Didn’t Jesus always tell the Apostles to go and heal the sick in the Gospels? Liberating the people from oppressive structures in society and healing of the sick was what the Apostles did. Shouldn’t this be the main thrust of the churches today instead of focusing on building buildings, saying masses and administering sacraments?
Remember Jesus was also very critical of the scribes and Pharisees during the time of the early church.

GOLDART, you should read Deepak Chopra’s new book -’The Third Jesus’.
He talks of the 3 Jesuses in the world today.
The first Jesus was the historical Jesus.
The second Jesus was an invention of the Roman Empire to perpetuate it’s vested interests.
The third Jesus is the philosophical Jesus which many Christians don’t know because the church only accepts 4 gospels whereas there were 30 over books written about Jesus and the Apostles.
The philosophy of Jesus parallels the philosophy of Hinduism and Bhuddism in many ways. I’m talking about the philosophy, not the rites and rituals of Hinduism and Bhuddism.

Dear All,
Jesus is the son of god in the flesh.Meaning he is the Alpha and Omega.Many during his time failed to see it, as do many even now.Even demons and Lucifer himself acnowledge Jesus as “Son of the Most High”.
I just want to point out that Jesus did not come to teach anything “new” BUT to request each to live our lives as new beings. As Saviour for ALL mankind he will be the JUST JUDGE in the 2nd Coming… So what does this mean for all of us? Simple.
Love God with all your heart, Love your neighbor as yourself.Are we doing it? Peace to all.

Hi Anil
A voice from the heady accountancy days of London!Very good to come across your blog site & what you stand for. With the change in regime (long awaited, but rewards come to those who are patient!)in Pg state, there’s now an opportunity to get involved with outreach work to school kids on environmental education via the deputy CM’s office. Perhaps I should email you separately about this to see if you might be interested to become involved in some way, or publicise this? (I’m still in UK by the way, but planning a trip soon to coincide with ‘the new thinking’ & see if we can contribute, even in some small way.)
‘Màs vale trade que nunca’
Look forward to hearing.
All good wishes
Bijon

Hi Anil,
Have been reading your writing with great interest. I think Sarawak needs people like you to write about the state. It’s a pity there is none at the moment willing to forego their comfortable job and turn to freelance journalism. My salute to you.

Dear jerry, Your comments have their merits. But if you are catholic I am sure you know the church, no matter its faults must carry on the Lord’s Love (his instructions etc)and hand it back to him as unblemished as humanly possible on the last day. Therefore let us have some compassion for the humans running the church as did Jesus have for mankind.

Hi Anil,
We know for the fact your knowledgeable in various topics. As such, we are in need of your help.
The problem is that the Office of Penang Diocese is (allegedly) planning to install a Telecomunication Antena on top of our new builded Activity Centre in the Church of Risen Christ, Air Itam, Penang.
We heard that the Antena is from xxx, for their new cellular company called xxx. We also heard its not safe as there is possiblity of electomagnetic radation on prolong usage.
Our children uses the centre for Sunday Classes. This is worring us. Please need your help to provide some facts in order for us to prepare a letter protest to the Bishop of Penang before the installation starts.
Your kind assistance to the above matter will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Best Regards

I haven’t heard about this. But perhaps, as a first step, you might want to verify the facts with the parish council/parish priest, and if at all it is true, express your concerns to them.

Hi,
Its good to hear of Malaysians who respect the dignity of human beings. It is seldom though.
Please keep up your good work in not supporting the introduction of nuclear technology in Malaysia and I would say in ASEAN countries which can choose freely to become NUCLEAR FREE – supporting each other in embracing the huge potential of renewable energy and not competing to become the first to have a nuclear plant.
Thank you and good luck.

WHAT I BELIEVE
In Malaysia, the politicians and their supporters are in the midst of meeting people, convincing and ensuring that they vote for them with their empty promises. Well no comments, it is politics. Every politician and the leaders ensuring everyone that they could do better than the other leaders’. You know that every Malaysian dreaming every moment that the “redeemer” will transform the Malaysia and tackle every crisis for peace and prosperity for better living but thus far never got for it. The rich becoming richer and the upper middle and the middle classes are drowning from their better living standard and facing uncertainty in thier daily live due to the political instability and I would bet the poors are likely to become the poorest of the poor in Malaysia if the Government doesn’t concern about the living standard of all Citizens regardless of race religion and colour.
Recently, two of our fellows are fighting one another and ensuring everyone of their political stability, one is Dato Seri Najib Razak the other is Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim. To me it doesn’t matter who will become the prime Minister of Malaysia, my concern is can you deliver? do you have “a caliber to clean the mess” which done by many ?. One fellow, promising that he will continue to serve us and to do better for us if he wins and the other fellow says, he would do better than the other if he becomes. As for me, I don’t see their weaknesses, but I see their ability and caliber (my rate for them is only 50 50). I may be not worthy to generalize their stands and views for their choice and ability to serve the country but I as one of the Malaysian have my fundamental rights which allows in the Federal Constitution to express my view.
One Malaysia is a Secular Country which constitutes multi national, multi racial, multi cultural and multi lingual but is not sure whether the Government and its leaders have shown or reserved any respect for those multi nationals without malice and ethnic cleansing. I am not talking for one community but as a whole. I leave it to your conscience. But be careful, don’t be overconfident on your deeds. People of Malaysia are watching, knows what you are doing and make sure when you come to power rectify as quick as possible before it is too late otherwise expect uprising! This is only my view.
Uprising doesn’t ignite by someone, you believe it or not it is an act of GOD, He will instrumental someone to lead the uprising. Along the way I read so many leaders looting the Government wealth in the pretext of administering the Government of the day. The middles eastern are an example, due to the leaders greed the uprising ignited in the now there are uncertainty for peace and Prosperity. Thousands of Billion Dollars been mishandled by the cleverest leaders all over the world but they all went down and still going down one by one due to their greed. So, believe it or not, this is an Act of GOD which you and I cannot escape from our deeds. This time our country is facing very crucial moment which I and you can not predict, only God knows what will happen.
Finally, my opinion is opposition is unlikely to control the power but likely to gain more seats. The opposition has to come out with new mandate, the mandate of unity with total “secular heart”. Please don’t give your empty promises to other ethnicity that anyone can become a Prime Minister. Of course the Federal Constitution allows, even I have that ambition to become a Prime Minister of Malaysia in order to lead my people with peace and prosperity but thus far none of you even the past leaders are being humbled or accepted the humility and let other races, who are struggled for this country since the early kingdom, the foundation of the Malaya and thereafter the Federated Malaya now Malaysia for the Chief Executive Post. The Americans, the well known Super Power, accepted the Black President and he is doing well. Sooner or later a black Pope is possible in the near future, everything is possible for GOD. Be broad and value your promises and serve our NATION AS ONE with peace and prosperity.
