Today I take umbrage at the behavior of some PKR goons. It is not an untruth to assume that most PKR members were former UMNO members. You all belonged to that unholy coalition. Some of you may have come out of UMNO, shed your skin over several seasons but the UMNO thing has not rubbed off on some of you.
Why did you rough up that lady reporter (here)and (here)? Since when has it become the trend to pick on ladies who were doing their job. Is it because ladies are easy pickings? Bullies normally do that!
PKR leaders and PR leaders need to do something drastic to clean up the image your security people ARE BEGINNING TO establish. Learn from PAS please......how they handled the Bersih rally.You goons are behaving like the above who came out to rough up residents who protested the blockade in Cheras.
Your goons are no different from this breed that strutted around in Ijok, during the by-elections.
With the Permatang Pauh by-elections which will be hurried thru soon, PKR and PR leaders have little time to rein in their thugs and get them to behave. And especially tell them that it is ONLY the yellow-livered cowards who will target defenseless women. Leave strong-armed thuggery to UMNO and their blue-shirted goonies. PR and PKR security personnel must be professional, because WE of BARISAN RAKYAT expect the government-in-waiting to be professional in every facet of governance.
YOU BET WE WILL BE WATCHING (and WHACKING).
that was a stupid move by the PKR goons. And what's more annoying is that the Anwar's camp is saying that they will investigate this matter.
ReplyDeleteDulu pun cakap macam ni juga, terjadi juga perkara yang sama. They are just giving out statement for the sake of giving an explaination.
Some more, that reporter is a LADY!
and she's just doing her job!
Clearly this so called PAKATAN RAKYAT has zero respect to any rakyat aside from themselves.
DSAI, you should make an effort to reprimand your security staff and make a formal apology to the victim and people of Malaysia soonest possible. Anything less or procrastination on your part will cast you in a bad light before the bad moon rises. I am disappointed you have not made a statement as yet on this unholy beating of a young lady who is only doing her work. A large portion of the Malaysian public are watching your every move. Please don't make us shout 'Pordahhh...' in your face.
ReplyDeleteGood point Zorro. They need to rein on these thugs. Anyway, they already apologised and some MPs and ADUNS have been sent to visit the girl. I hope it will be the last.
ReplyDeleteI rejected a comment by "We Love UMNO" It was a personal attack on DSAI, his wife and daughter. I rejected it on the grounds that it was a scurrilous comment and contrary to the values my readers expect promoted in this comment box.
ReplyDeleteget rid of thugs from PR urgently.
ReplyDeleteGood on ya..Bernard old chap! Let's keep a close watch on these unruly mobsters in the midst of all the right minded PR people. Last thing we want is for a new government to allow thuggery of the sort condoned by the BN goons! Voice our disapproval and displeasure each time this kind of uncivilized act is committed, irrespective of to a lady or to a man. We expect PR to act totally professional, humble and fair at all times.
ReplyDeleteIs Shamsul Iskandar Mat Akin silent again?
ReplyDeleteThis incident of roughing up the innocent photographer is most uncalled and unjustified. She is just doing her job!
ReplyDeleteThose found responsible must be sacked,immediately,to safeguard the image of PKR. How could they be so silly to allow Umno, to highlight and capitalised on this thuggery event. Don't they know this Permatang Puah by-election is very vital for the opposition to secure a PKR govt?
No excuse, just remove all the bad apples.
The photographer only shoots with the harmless camera
ReplyDeleteLet not others be rude and shoot with their foul loud mouths
And be cruelly crude by brutal use of arms and legs
May we all be spared from those who suffer from such mouth, hand and foot diseases

Thuggery, bullying and hooliganism should be left to the UMNO goons. Such behaviour has no place in a civilised society. If the goons who roughed up the lady photographer is really from PKR, then DSAI has to deal firmly with those brutes. DSAI might as well clean up now before it gets out of hand. If UMNO can plant shady characters like the sinful arsehole, they might have planted any number of agent provocateurs to sully the image of PKR and DSAI. Identify and sack those asap.
ReplyDeleteDSAI you owe us all an explanation. If these are NOT PKR people, please enusre your appointed people follow through with the right course of action.
ReplyDeleteNo ONE is above the law. Not even PKR. Period.
And please do not take a hundred hours to keep the rakyat updated DSAI.
Keadilan has to learn a lesson about the way its members behave as seen during the selangor MB'S aide scandal. IT must be put into their heads that we the rakyat did and will not accept bullies or thugs a' la umno style. This was very evident when some characters claimed that they should get positions just because they were there from the begining, that is tear gas and water cannons. we did not and will not excange one tyranny for another. DSAI HAS TO BE VERY CLEAR DO WHAT YOU PREACH and don't let us see KEADILAN AS ANOTHER UMNO.
ReplyDeleteAnwar MUST BE BASTARDISED if he don't resolved this matter.
ReplyDeleteAnwar, dont tell me "akan disiasat" without giving any deadline (if not you are just another behave like PDRM or BN or UMNO)
The attacker , according the report is Anwar bodyguards.
So many incident of these rough bodyguards have surfaced lately.
I never vote for this kind PM-in-waiting
Have also voiced my concern and utter disgust about this in my blog. The NUJ or similar Photo Journalist union must act to boycott these events where thugs rule the day ! The pj's I know are one though group of people and their actions will not go unnoticed.
ReplyDeleteYEAP! I am with Bernard. We are neutral bloggers; we are not politically aligned - so that there is some objectivity when we hantam
ReplyDeleteDSAI - & PKR should make public apologies because I am sure DSAI would not like HIS ladies to be treated with the same "respect" these goons are dishing out to others
These are all Agent Provocateurs!
ReplyDeleteJust a very simple question -Who will benefited from this Incident?!
Ask Malaysian Association of Chinese Photographers who is planning to boycott PKR’s campaign NOT TO FALL INTO THE BeeNed Govt TRAP!
PKR should give the media more room.
ReplyDeleteDo organise it properly as PR needs all the supports and public relation.
Pls fire those rude supporters as we do NOT want them .
Theres no reason to be rude towards the media people.
dear zorro, wonder why some other bloggers haven't come out stronger on this. i remember jeffooi being screaming and all at his blog when he got roughened up at ijok or somewhere. guess the new found fame/responsibility change people's principles and belief.
ReplyDeletePkr sucks
Guys....Wan Azizah officially called the poor gal and appologized to her. I feel we can let go of this issue for now. How many of our national leaders actually come out and appologize for the actions of their underlings??? NONE!!! Malaysian leaders are expert in playing the blame game. Kudos to Azizah for her bold move of taking responsibility. The photographer has accepted her appology and so must we. Lets hope that those goons will be reprimanded!!! Tsunami in Permatang Pauh!!! Let the UMNO candidate lose his deposit...hahaha :)
ReplyDeleteBernard,
ReplyDeleteMe and my suspicious mind working o/time. 'Planted' ppl in PKR to make them look vicious?? This are the kind of news that will spread far and wide to smear DSAI & co. Give them a bad name etc. Now everyone is condemning PKR right? DSAU must investigate who they really are, because this small group will put all his plans in shambles, all the waiting and planning.
just my 2-sen worth!
cheers
the photo shows so clearly who the culprits what !
ReplyDeleteAiyeeeeee, PKR people like that one ah !!?? just think carefully if & ONLY IF they take over the country.... aiyaaaaah....HELP !
Uncle
ReplyDeletePlease find below denial from local PKR chief.

Arent you one of those who supported PKR during the GE ? Next assaignment involving the PKR the pixmen will be carrying ice picks.. pls get out of the way.
ReplyDeleteAnon 2:15pm
ReplyDeleteI supported the opposition. My MP is PKR and my adun is PAS.
Suggest you give my post a second read and stry to get the message I am putting across.
et tu Zorro?
ReplyDeleteThe PKR security team may not be as good as PAS (remember PAS been around for donkey years) but you don't accuse before the evidence.
I have my doubt about those responsible to rough up the lady photographer although I think PKR must improve their security team PR.
Really worried about the proposed DNA Act.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't we oppose to it. You and I can be framed for anything knowing the kind of people we have in power.
Uncle Zorror, care to start the ball rolling with a petition?
We don't have much time till Aug 31.
latest: anwar will be charged 2moro at 10. 'no bail out '!
ReplyDeletenomination on 16th & xxx 26th lah !
Bernard, I think a response is needed to this article and it needs highlighting, not being swept under the carpet. The statement by mr propoganda haba2 albar is a BLATANT DISPLAY OF DOUBLE STANDARDS.
ReplyDeletePUTRAJAYA: Home Minister Datuk
Seri Syed Hamid Albar said yesterday
it was not a good idea to hold an open forum on conversion to Islam as it could create misunderstanding and tension in society.
While agreeing that such forums
have both negative and positive
points, he said there are nevertheless procedures for the people to voice
dissatisfaction, and more civilised
ways to discuss religion rather than talking about it openly.
“We do encourage discussions
on things which have an impact on
the people. But at the same time,
if it could create misunderstanding
and sensitivity, touches on racial and religious sentiments, I think we should avoid it.
ON one side he makes a stupid statement like this which means, ""oooh it is a sensitive subject and "LETS sweep it under the carpet lets not discuss this"
Than they have "quiet discussions" with PAS ON "MALAY UNITY- ISLAMIC UNITY", propoganda/racial/ BRAIN-WASHING seminars by BTN with results like what has happened in selangor recently , where govt employees, in this case A SCHOOL TEACHER PRACTISING WHAT HAS BEEN DRUMED INTO HER HEAD-BTN-SEMINAR,showing and practising blatant racism, but where does this racism come from, IT IS THE POLICIES OF UMNO. SO WHAT IS THERE NOT TO DISCUSS, WHO ARE THOSE, WHO FIND IT SENSITIVE?, there are 5 people who complained amongst other things the destruction of their temples of worship, who are spending a long haul free-food-holiday at the taiping resort. what about the sensitivities of the families of those who's dead relatives' bodies are snatched for muslim burials? so is it better to hide-sweep this under the carpet, or to discuss this openly and find a solution to this problem so that this nonsense stops. It is an insult to the intelligence of all right thinking Malaysians if MR ALBAR's oppinion is to be followed, or is his statement a threat/ demand/ ARAHAAAAAN?
uncle, i tk percaya tu org2 PKR, ntah2 musang tk berbulu ameno yg amik peluang tuk mencemarkn nama baik PKR n PR.. uncle..they can do anything rite? even to innocent people? do u believe those thugs r PKR supporters?
ReplyDelete"I am proud to be alligned to a band of bloggers that have no political masters, are not card-carrying members of any political party and will not hesitate to take to task any misstep especially any Pakatan Rakyat delinquency" if that aint crap ... i dont know what is.Somehow your trail will lead to RPK and end up with ANWAR ... It is we" that are watching you"
ReplyDeleteBROTHER Bernard Khoo,what was Someone who Claims to have NO Political Master and not a Card carrying Member of any Political Party doing at the Brother Anwar Bin Ibrahim Press Conference ? News Gathering i presume.
ReplyDeleteKT...does attending an opposition party's PC make me a card carrying memeber and subservient to a political master. Of course, to get a sense of what is and what will be...and not mere news gathering. Why were u there might I ask? Read my posting which should be up soon. By the way, if you call yourself a knight templar, I would expect a basic level of quality comments rather than nit-picking.Just in passing, a London Malaysian thru RPK handed me a cheque of Rm1000 for good work done by bloggers. I told RPK that that donation should go towards the Permatang Pauh campaign. That was OKed by the donor. If we have to make a stand we will, instead of sitting on the fence.....doing that you can get bruised balls. NO? Safer to get down from the fence for the good of the nation and my future malaysian grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteSeethruyou:
So what is wrong with that if it leads to RPK and Anwar....at least those guys have got balls of steel...and dont go around salad tossing....if YOU get my drift. I say thru you son.
oh! it's NOT he force-sodomising saifool , the charge is ' both having sodomy = unnatural one', NOT allowed lah in malaysia BUT why
ReplyDeletethe other party NOT charged ah !?

ReplyDeleteNo more being Collateral Damage...Terror Back!!

ReplyDeleteunscrupulous

ReplyDeletewant to see him also manyak susah

Zorro, there are so many zombies in bloggospace who can see no wrong in whatever the Opposition does, good to know you're not one.
ReplyDeleteRox sayang, always encouraged by your impactful insights. PKR contributed to another bo-bo ysesterday at Bar Council Forum. Posting on this later today.
