WAS I DISILLUSIONED OR DID YOU CHANGE SO FAST?

IN my first few months of blogging I remember the Raja Muda in a speech to youth told them that the Malaysian sun was for all. In other dissertations throughout the country he convinced me that THIS WAS A ROYAL I WOULD WANT AS MY PRIME MINISTER (HERE).

Yesterday, the Malaysian Insider, featured Raja Nazrin defence of the monarchy against ridicule. I personally found the contents JUICELESS. The rakyat always respects the monarchy. It is in our constitution. However, respect cannot be demanded. It must be earned. We never interferred with the royals, unless the royals inteferred with our lives. The royals influence our lives, but we object when they allow politicians to influence them.

When we ridicule, there is always a reason. Primarily because we commoners have no other recourse. So we ridicule to show our anger. Normal citizens would not, for frivolous reasons ridicule or get angry with our rulers. When we are robbed and when the authorities, pledged to protect us, do little or nothing, we ridicule them becasue we are angry with them. When politicians on both sides monkey around we ridicule them becasue we are angryWhen our judges become a joke, we redicule them because we are angry and incensed that learned men could blatantly prostitute their code to continue to warm the lofthy bench. When the Royal Commission of the Lingam tapes took no action, we redicule them because we are angry! Why? It is a ROYAL commission, and not a domestic inquiry. We cannot redicule the royals because they only lent the royal adjective to whatever commission. Isn't this an insult to the word Royal. So we redicule the commission.....becasue they did shit all after the commission. Not a whimper. The common man who does not ridicule and get angry at this is an uncommon man.

Why cannot we get angry....it is a natural emotion even in the lower live forms? Have we a choice?

PERAK is not a common state. Our tin mines and our rubber estates enriched the country and contributed to the Industrial Revolution. The first railway line chugged from Port Weld/Taiping. Perak had illustrious sons and daughters in sports, civil service. We are proud to be Perakians. Perak exported many of its sons and daughter towards the betterment of other states. However, over the years, Perak was left behind but we swallowed our pride and flowed with the tide. Perakians were very aware of the corruption rampant in the country. Perakians knew the cause of this malady. In 2008, PERAKIANS MADE THEIR STAND. But within a year, their votes were forfeited by illigitimate unscrupulous manipulations. YOU ARE NOT ANAK PERAK IF YOU ARE NOT ANGRY WITH THIEVES.

Which loyal sons and daughters of Perak would not get angry. It is lucky that we only redicule and that because we are angry. But becasue we Perakians are not DUMB, we will voice our dissent.
If Raja Nazrin, our future Sultan thinks it is rIdicule.....so be it. It is just semantics and juiceless?
