BRAVE WORDS FROM A BRAVE ANAK BANGSA MALAYSIA.


YES, Datuk Zaid Ibrahim said those words to Haris last night. For most of last week Haris and I have been mulling over the happenings in the Pakatan camp and all this on the eve of the impending by-election at Permatang Pasir. We blogged about our predicament over the week but were still undecided as to the stand the Barisan Rakyat Bloggers will take. We were aware yesterday evening about the big-meet amongst the Pakatan leaders. Haris did say in his latest posting that we will sleep over this over the weekend.

No, BRB have never said that we can do wonders at by-elections. We always go in to contribute whatever we can. Mostly we give our time with a prayer and a hope that it will add to a New Malaysia. I remember this poem we learnt by heart in school: "Little drops of water, little drops of sand; makes a mighty ocean and a lovely land."

I have not spoken to Haris since last night.....but I will go into PP with an open mind, keeping in mind Datuk Zaid's brave words....and also because a friend had faith in what we set out to do. Al (not really his real name, but close enough) said this to me......."accept this (a 4 figure donation) and go help make this land a better place for my 3 year old daughter and her generation...."

Thanks Al, and to the others who caught some fish for our trip.......we will take it from here.

    Permatang Pasir by election
    It never ends the moment flow
    The political journey for change
    It keeps coming.........

    The Albino speaks
    Nailing it to the its doors
    Trapping the party members
    Saying stupid things to the masses
    It keeps coming........

    The people open minds
    Marching forward no turning back
    The wishes of generation now and tomorrow
    Build Malaysia a rightful place shining bright
    For all living in harmony sharing our diversity

    The Albino speaks
    Racial undertones and race mentality
    The party leaders never learn
    March 08 the great walls riddled with holes
    The coalition members plastering with cement
    Crumbling till it falls off again
    And it keeps coming......

    The path of change
    It has risen; it will not go away
    The hidden of 1Malaysia
    In reverse “A is Malay 1”

    So we mustn't be fooled
    Race base party shouldn't allow to grow
    On slogan hiding its true meaning
    They say action speaks loudly
    Though it keeps coming.....

    Pakatan is our only hope. Look at what Najib and his BN team did to bring down Selangor PR goverment and accidentally caused the death of Teoh...Look at what Utusan and berita harian propagating..

    It is just a process of maturing before all the 3 parties in PR understand each other better.

    This is a long fight and struggle..we may not see result in our generation or situation may get worst (what to expect when someone with obvious stain on murder case and corruption involve billions of dollars is the head of country), we must continue.. GOOD MUST NEVER SURRENDER TO EVIL..

    Things can only get better IF THE RAKYAT MAKES A COLLECTIVE EFFORT TO MAKE THEM HAPPEN. Datuk had said it out. Now it's the rakyat's turn to work on those words. All together as Malaysians. Not because we are Malays, Chinese, Indians , Dayaks or whatever. Not because we are Muslims, Christians, Buddhists or whatever.

    Uncle Zorro,

    Our few close up encounters with Datuk Zaid have been very encouraging.

    A true Anak Bangsa Malaysia, indeed!

    He is genuine and We, as Barisan Rakyat Blogger, should be looking out and endorse people like Datuk Zaid who has the country and its people welfare high up in their agenda.

    I am keeping a list of those politicians who share the same aspiration.

    Let BN win the PP by election to teach PR not to screw around.

    May the force be with you and the SB (Special Bunch). It is very clear to see that the rampant abuse of Government machinery and resource (MACC, Police etc) by the UMNO led government must be stopped in its track. The disregard for the Rakyat's wishes as in the illegal take over of Perak and the current attempt in Selangor is clear for ALL to see.

    The first step is to throw these corruptors into the dustbin with your votes. The next step would be to revamp the Judiciary by getting rid of those corrupt judges. The third step would be to clean up the police and so on. This journey starts right from the ballot box.

    So irrespective of the petty squabbles (democracy at work), support PAS, as a first step towards a two party system, with a viable opposition, so that the politicians would be very wary of upsetting the Rakyat, as they know they will be voted out if they anger the Rakyat.

    We are with you Zorro, Duke, Shanghai, Gazz.....

    Shalom, Admiral Tojo

    DON'T UNDERESTIMATE WHAT'S LITTLE

    Little drops of water
    And little grains of sand
    Make a mighty ocean
    And a lovely land

    Little notes of music
    And little musical instruments
    Make a lively band (that's basic)
    And an orchestra (with equipments)on hand

    The current attempt by Umno to bring down a duly elected Pakatan Government in Selangor goes to show how low they are willing to go after Perak....not to mention the continuous raping of the Country's wealth by the CROOKS in suits in power.
    The MACC is NOW the Political Machinery of Umno to destroy opponents .....Teoh Beng Huat we will never forget you.
    We must NOT ALLOW Evil to suceed .
    Luckily we have really Good men & women in Pakatan to counteract these evils BUT they alone cannot do it without OUR SUPPORT however small... comments on internet,youtube comments,join a party -pakatan of course, volunteer service for by elections, etc.
    For the sake of your children...DO SOMETHING !,anything but do something like Zorro & so many Brave Malaysians.
    Hidup REFORMASI !
