THIS ANGEL KEPT THE COPS AT BAY?

Did this little angel Sze Wei, who defied one of the 12 conditions laid down by the Police (No anti-ISA tees) softened those 8 non-uniformed police who lurked behind us all during the vigil. It was gratifying to see the people stubbornly come out in defiance of those ridiculous 12 conditions to say NO TO ISA.

Yes we might have found an ideal venue for our vigils, not that we created havoc or caused congestion on the roads at the previous venue. The speakers defied the ban on speeches. I was thrilled when 4 senior citizens spoke from their hearts and encouraging us to continue the vigils.
The young ones too lent their voice to urge us to stay the course and that they especially Malaysians abroad are with us in this journey.

All vigils have left their mark, even the previous Sundays crackdown.
We heard this from one of our speakers: Rosa Parks SAT on her bus seat. This inspired Martin Luther King Jr. to WALK which in turn motivated Obama to RUN for presidency of the US of A. See you next Sunday, same place, same time BUT bring friends, boleh?

TO THE 23 AND TO PAULA WHO GOT ARRESTED DURING OUR VIGILS
AND THOSE WHO CROSSED THAT LINE CALLED FEAR
I DEDICATE THIS EVERGREEN.

Honestly, I'd rather stand in full salute for this little angel than the Negara Ku. That's what my heart says. And that's what my head says I gonna do.

Hamid Albar was probably pretty cute too at age five. Too bad he ain't so cute anymore... Guess that's what Umno does to people. They become utterly UNCUTE!

This ex-Malaysian abroad, walks with you all at every vigil, not physical but spiritually. I am so proud of the Malaysians of today that I am a Malaysian Wannabe Again.

Beautiful song and what a cutie that young lass is. Reminds me of my own little girl (not so little now at 23) when she was at her age

Why do we have a little angel doing this? Sigh! There is something wrong with Bolehland. NAd the problem is the lack of knowledge!

It's knowledge that determines the success of a nation.

Knowledge is Power!

If we have a pm who has the knowledge of the 6000 year of Chinese culture, we will not have this debacle right now in Bolehland.

Sigh! Looking at Mahathir, Mahathir has no knowledge in the sound administering of Bolehland, he destroyed our judicial system! Well! Mahathir has no knowledge of the rule of law and the 6000 year of Chinese culture, as such, is ignorant when comes to reining Bolehland.

If Mahathir has had the knowledge of 6000 year of Chinese culture, Mahathir would have ruled Bolehland efficiently.

You need reference for proper guidance when comes to ruling a nation and not by trial and error or at one's fancies or whims. Yes!

The 6000 year of Chinese culture is the best reference on earth!

If Mahathir knew that if he indulged in corruption and selling the nation to another country, hie would be beheaded, do you think Mahathir would dare to commit such corruption?

Sigh! Bolehland is in such a quagmire because we don't pursue the 6000 year of Chinese culture, that's why we have a labyrinth of problems in Bolehland.

Just like Mr. Samurai Warrior, whole life fighting with swords among your fellow samurais, no wonder Bolehland is like a war torn nation ala Iraq.


Just like the New Era College, there is no rule of law and is like in a war zone.

Sigh! This PJ traitor lacks the knowledge of the 6000 year of Chinese Culture.

When I was young, I was taught by my teachers to respect the elders and always learn from others.

But this pj traitor has no respect to the elders and in fact, is teaching his students not to respect their elders. What kind of society we have if we have young students not respecting their elders and they think they know everything already in the world?

Bolehland is in such a chaos is because the lack of knowledge of the rule of law and the 6000 year of Chinese culture.

If Bolehland is following the rule of law diligently and the 6000 year of Chinese culture, or any nation that follows the rule of law and have the 6000 year of Chinese culture, this world would be a peaceful and prosperous world.

That's why China is the number 1 country in the world right now! And all countries of the world are looking up to China for trade and knowledge.

Now we have this pj traitor who is ignorant to the rule of law and the 6000 year of Chinese culture and thus is creating havoc in the New Era college.

This is not the Chinese culture to create trouble in a college, what's more instigating others to go against the mother college.

Why? Because it's lack of the 6000 year of Chinese culture. If this pj traitor knew the Chinese culture, he would refrain from doing such a heinous act against the endemic Chinese in Bolehland for his selfish self interests.

The Chinese Culture demands good manners, honesty, integrity, to be steadfast with conviction, respect others, treat other like brothers and sisters irrespective of race, religion or creed, do not do to others what you don't like others do to you.

If this pj traitor is following the Chinese culture diligently, we will not have such chaos in the college. Hence this outgoing principal aka pj traitor must go.

This pj traitor is not a paradigm for the students. He only breeds more little rude and lawless little traitors.

Now this pj traitor is garnering philistines and plebeians to create havoc in New Era college. This will never a learned Chinese scholar would do!

Sigh! This pj traitor lacks the knowledge of the rule of law and the 6000 year of Chinese culture, just like Bolehland, it's a lawless nation- a lawless college under this pj traitor.

Confucious says: Respect the teachers and rule. But this ignorant pj traitor is just ignorant to the teachings and knowledge of the 6000 year of Chinese culture. As such, we have all kinds of problems under this pj traitor rein in New Era, ditto to Bolehland.

Therfore, we know that this pj traitor will never be a good principal for the fact that this pj traitor has no knowledge of the the rule of law and the 6000 year of Chinese culture.

DeY! pj traitor, teach your students how to respect the elders! Sigh! How do we expect this pj triaitor to teach his students respecting the elders when this pj traitor needed to be taught how to respect the elders?

So knowledge is power. The 6000 year of Chinese culture is a good source of knowledge.

Since we are not allowed to wear "T" shirt with slogan that denounced ISA, why not we come up with 'T' shirt that carries single alphabet i.e. A, I, S, O, N .... etc..etc. On its own its just an alphabet. But if we were to string it together by standing side by side it becomes NO ISA etc..etc..
Dont tell me that the government is also scared of alphabet??

We need angels
On the candles vigils
No to ISA
The people has awoken

The camouflage of darkness
The dim light brightens
We need angels
To show us the way

Maybe police officers
They just hang around
Looking at the peaceful gathering
No need to show their badges

We need angels
To reach our destiny
No to ISA
It will come true
In our time

To Paula Khoo and others who were intimidated or arrested by the police during the recent candlelight vigil:

I am sorry you were singled out, arrested, interrogated and held under police custody for no reason other than for having stood up lawfully and peacefully to exercise your democratic and constitutionally guaranteed rights to freedom of speech and assembly.

I salute you for having had the courage to face your fear - a hard thing to do by any one's estimation - and for having stood up against injustice despite that debilitating fear.

It is the likes of you who are the much needed pioneering pathfinders who lead the way for others to follow in this very essential good fight.

So thank you, and please keep fighting because Malaysia needs you!

Jill, this is the first time a lady(?) (or you are Jack actually whose comment I rejected)make such a negative comment in my blog. You are either man trapped in a lady's body or vice versa, thus such confusion. Have a nice day Jill and buy youself a nice bone, if Jack does not share his with you. But keep away from our angel Sze Wei....we dont want her to grow up to be as sick as you.

PJ Voter,
Please don't keep repeating "6000 years of chinese culture" like a broken record.
Please acknowledge that there are other good cultures in the world besides chinese culture. I am also proud of the chinese culture, but keep repeating it makes you sound like a chauvinist. That will give Mahaxxx and AMINO apologists excuse to come and attack this blog.
By the way, China is strong today has nothing to do with the 6000 years of Chinese culture.

SB(Inc)....at least the SB who called me identified himself. I respect that. He reminded me that there was such a place called Kamunting. I told him that my hometown was Taiping and I used to swim in the old tin mines in Kamunting. I told him that I have visited Kem Kamunting with Marina to visit RPK. He was polite and courteous and most of all very professional unlike you. You dont even dare name yourself and you dont have it in you to be in the Special Branch. (Inc....inches is it? cowards normally have small ones. Opps sorry I take that back.I do not want to insult by talking about the size of your manhood). I always enjoy myself and if you have it in you, come over to the wharf and might buy you dinner and orange juice if you cannot take drinks that are spiritual. Don't be afraid, come....people there are good people with names given by their parents. Take your tail from between your hind legs and come enjoy with us, on one condition, me and the people at the wharf dont scare easily. We are MEN and WOMEN with names and MyKad. You need transport or you prefer to crawl here, dicky?

Dear Daniel,

I am not a chauvinist. The Chinese culture advocates all people within the four seas are brothers and sisters.

We have a labyrinth of problems in Bolehland! What is your solution to these problems? Eelek?

The solution is the 6000 year of Chinese culture.

You are akin to a sampan in an ocean without direction, but you are still not tooo bad if given a compass.

Dei! Why should we fear Mahathir? To the contrary Mahathir should be afraid of us!

The axion: The people should not be afraid of the government. The government should be afraid of the people,

and more....

PJ Voter

Consider this :

How to respect an elder who has no integrity at all... do you respect Mahathir blindly simply becos' he is an elder ??

As for the happening in new Era College...

Yap Sin Tian, the Chairman of Board of Director (BOD) of the college has a fake PhD which he bought from a degree mill.. So can you respect such a person ??

Yap orchestrated the termination of Dr Kua Kia Soong tenure as the principal of Era College.. The students, parents and teaching staff of New Era who believe Dr Kua is doing a good job came out to protest against the unjust dismissal of Dr Kua.

What is wrong with that ?? Why is Yap and the BOD afraid to meet the students, parents and the teaching staff ??

The BOD conduct is what Chinese call "turtle" culture (keep head under the shell and refuse to listen to reasons). Nothing to do with the fine Chinese culture... !!

Do you want to take us back to the feudal era of China's bygone days of one man rule ??

The Chinese also accumulated a lot of rubbish and blind spots over the 5,000 years of civilisation. From time to time, it needs a revolution to clear the rubbish to reveal the sparking gems in Chinese culture !!

Yes, PJ Voter I do agree with you that people should not be afraid of the gov't ! Just like the students should not be afraid of the College BOD..

Uncle Bernard,

Thanks for the beautiful dedication. When all this passes, I hope we will be able to cut our own album of freedom not just in music, but in pictures, prose, poems and most of all, the beautiful albeit sometimes painful recollections of the journey that we had to take to reclaim what is rightfully ours - our rights and freedom!!

anna brella,
Thanks for your heartwarming and candid message. I truly appreciate the depth of your passion and magnitude of your vision!

Peace and blessings to you all.

You guys are sad to be saluting a girl who i doubt even understand why she was there in the first place

I think the parents is irresponsible to drag their children in their own cause. it is utterly selfish and if they thought they can get extra pointer for the gimmick...well there are some level headed Malaysian like me who find that as DISTASTEFUL

Issues about parents dragging their innocent child to their own cause is highlighted in jedyoong.com . Do have a read

Dear Zorro unmasked,

Are you the gullible type like the New Era Students?

Have you seen the sos Damansara school pupils studied in two 20 footer trailer containers in the temple opposite the SRJK(C ) Damansara for 8 years?

Have you seen Dr. Kua ever stepped on Petaling Jaya soil campaigning for the Dap reps and fighting for the reopening of the sos Damansara School?

Adios! Zorro

Hi A Toong,

How to respect an elder who has no integrity at all... do you respect Mahathir blindly simply becos' he is an elder ??

The general Chinese believe that Dr. Yap has done a good job for the Chinese education in Bolehland so far with integrity and honesty. He has a huge burden taking care of the 1200 primary schools, 60 independent secondary schools and 5 colleges. If he has no integrity, there will be cacophony all over the semenunjung.

If Dr. Yap is not doing a fine job, he would be booted out come the next Dong Jiao Zong GE, Dr. Yap will have to defend his post.

Are we following a tested and proven election system or at one’s whim and fancy?

Mahathir has made his bucks and is protecting his business empires and is receiving constant bombardments from the rakyat.

Dr. Yap is doing his job diligently and the General Chinese in Bolehland is happy so far with his performance. Else Dr. Yap will receive the same bombarnments from the general public Chinese like what Dr. Mahathir is receiving now.

As for the happening in new Era College...

Yap Sin Tian, the Chairman of Board of Director (BOD) of the college has a fake PhD which he bought from a degree mill.. So can you respect such a person ??

Well! If this is the case, this should be brought up when the next Dong Jiao Zong EGM is held. Why employ character assignation now? Isn’t a person is innocent until proven guilty?

Yap orchestrated the termination of Dr Kua Kia Soong tenure as the principal of Era College.. The students, parents and teaching staff of New Era who believe Dr Kua is doing a good job came out to protest against the unjust dismissal of Dr Kua.

It is the general Chinese who want Dr. Kua to discontinue his services in New Era. Do we want a principal who can only pleased the students and staffs? Looking at the state of affairs in New Era, I don’t see Dr. Kua is doing a good job. Else Dr. Kua would not create such a commotion in New Era.

He jeopardizes the survival of the Chinese school system. If he is doing a good job and a man with honor, he would have left the college gracefully and peacefully. Then the general public Chinese in Bolehland would believe he is a good principal.

Nobody would want an excellent principal to leave. It will be a tremendous loss to the general public Chinese in semenunjung.

Under Dr. Kua in New Era, there is just no law and order and discipline in New Era.

What is wrong with that ?? Why is Yap and the BOD afraid to meet the students, parents and the teaching staff ??

Dr. Yap and the BOD is just a body carrying out the aspirations of the general public Chinese. He cannot make decisions as he wishes. He complied with the EGM proposed by the Johor, Malacca and Seremban Directors of State Education and a decision was make, ie. not to continue Dr. Kua service for the year 2009.

This is a democratic process and Dr. Yap got to abide by the decision of the Directors of all the States in Malaysia.

Can Dr. Yap negotiate with any Tom Dick and Harry group as he pleases. You have to follow a proper system in order to carry out the various functions of the systems properly. We don’t want anarchy like what is happening in New Era now.

The BOD conduct is what Chinese call "turtle" culture (keep head under the shell and refuse to listen to reasons). Nothing to do with the fine Chinese culture... !!

Everybody has his/her reasons. It’s the interests of the general Chinese rein supreme here. There are 1001 reasons that the general Chinese can give also. Who should the BOD listen to? Hence we have the EGM on the 2nd of November 2008 and a decision was made. Hey! A nation has its rule of law so does a setup like New Era. Do we want to follow the rule of law or fist fighting like in an uncivilized nation?

Do you want to take us back to the feudal era of China's bygone days of one man rule ??

No dear! Not in this new era or in New Era. That’s why we had the EGM on November 2nd, 2008. It’s a democratic process and no one man rule please.

The Chinese also accumulated a lot of rubbish and blind spots over the 5,000 years of civilisation. From time to time, it needs a revolution to clear the rubbish to reveal the sparking gems in Chinese culture !!

I definitely Can’t disagree with you on this. You still have the conscience and dignity. Are you in it and can’t see an overall picture from a bird-eye view?

Yes, PJ Voter I do agree with you that people should not be afraid of the gov't ! Just like the students should not be afraid of the College BOD..

Ok! I am glad you agreed but the BOD is trying their best to do what they can for the best interests of the students. Do you think the BOD wants to a lousy deal for their students? Do you think they would want to jeopardize their positions?
