MAFREL NEEDS SEREMBAN VOLUNTEERS FOR BAGAN PINANG

I received this from Penang Blogger & Activist, Lucia after my post HERE.


hi bernard

this is the announcement i just put up at the mafrel site (in bahasa
and english), calling for volunteers. can you please put it up in your
blog or refer your readers to the site:
http://mafrel.wordpress.com/2009/09/08/dikehendaki-sukarelawanvolunteers-required/

mafrel is fully run by volunteers who have full time jobs of their
own, and at the moment, we don't seem to have many who like to commit.
this time since it is seremban, where there is no mafrel branch and no
mafrel members, i'm afraid we might not get many volunteers. the
existing ones, hopefully from selangor will help out initially.

oh yeah anyone who wants to know further details about volunteering,
better to get in touch directly with arphan ahmad.

here is the announcement from the website:

==========
MAFREL memerlukan sukarelawan untuk menjadi Pemerhati dan Pemantau di
Pilihan Raya Kecil Bagan Pinang yang akan diadakan dalam bulan Oktober

melalui e-mel arphanahmad@hotmail.com. Latihan secukupnya akan diberi
kepada Sukarelaawan baru.

CASH FLOW PROJECTION - A CASE STUDY FOR MDM.PHANG

WHILST waiting for the fish to bite, we were wondering what was the capital layout for the Perak Putsch (backdoor that is). And since the whole affair lingers on how much cash flowed in the latest court decisions.

THE LATEST COURT RULING IN IPOH HAS LEFT ME SPEECHLESS!

EXCEPT TO ASK YOU TO SPOT THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THESE TWO PICS.

MAYBE THIS AND THIS MIGHT HELP YOU SPOT THE DIFF.

ZAID DARES JIB

LADIES & GENTLEMEN.....THE COURT JESTERS !

IN my earlier postings SHOULD THE COW-HEAD DUO BE ISAed?

I was hoping that those charged would be charged under Section 298 of the Penal Code. And I am not the only one. AISEHMAN thinks likewise too HERE.

THE ART AND SCIENCE OF GOVERNANCE: HAWKEYE

HAWKEYE is a Barisan Rakyat Blogger and a member of the Special Bunch. I have read his latest posting 6 times and everytime new gems are unearthed. UMNO is unable to change and as such they may be incapable to grasp the wealth in this article. As such it would do the Pekatan Rakyat Yang Berhomats a world of good to LEARN. It is often said that whenever we feel that there is nothing more to learn signals that we have some more learning to embark on.

This story in history is written with the hope that some of our politicians get to be enlightened and see that politics requires sincerity and truth and not otherwise. Virtue and benevolence is the foundation towards good politics and good governance and there can be no good strategy without this foundation.

Civil Secret Teaching of the Liu Tao

Laying the Foundation of Virtue and Benevolence

This is where the ruler must posses and continuously acquires the knowledge and principles of governance as being subservient to the people and this is the order of Heaven. The Grand Duke believes that the ruler must cultivate his virtue and submit to the guidance of Worthy men so as to gain greater wisdom which will see greater beneficence to the state and people.

The wisdom to establish the foundation can be seen in the various inquiry of King Wen to the Grand Duke:

Excerps:

King Wen inquired: “The world is replete with a dazzling array of states, some are full, and others empty, some well ordered others in chaos. How does it come to be thus? Is it the moral qualities of these rulers are not the same? Or that the changes and transformation of the seasons of Heaven naturally causes it to be thus?”

The Grand Duke said: “If the ruler lacks moral worth, than the state will be in danger and the people in turbulence. If the ruler is a Worthy or a Sage, than the state will be at peace and people well ordered. Fortune or misfortune lies with the ruler, not with the seasons of Heaven.”

+++++

King Wen said to the Grand Duke: “I would like to learn about the affair of administering the state. If I want to have the ruler honored and the people settled, how should I proceed?”

Grand Duke: “Just love the people.”

King Wen: “How does one love the people?”

Grand Duke: “Profit them, do not harm them. Help them to succeed, do not defeat them. Give them life, do not slay them. Grant, do not take away. Give them pleasure, do not cause them to suffer. Make them happy, do not cause them to be angry.”

King Wen: “May I dare ask you to explain the reasons for these?”

Grand Duke: “When the people do not lose their fundamental occupations, you have profited them. When the farmers do not lose their agricultural seasons, you have completed them. When you reduce punishments and fines, you give them life. When you impose light taxes, you give to them. When you keep your palaces, mansions, terraces and pavilions few, you give them pleasure. When the ministers and officials are pure and neither irritating nor troublesome, you make them happy.
“But when the people lose their fundamental occupation, you harm them. When the farmers lose their agricultural seasons, you defeat them. When they are innocent and you punish them, you will kill them (Kill them her means that you will kill their faith in the ruler as people dislike injustices). When you impose heavy taxes, you will take from them. When you construct numerous, mansions, terraces and pavilions, thereby wearing out the people, you make it bitter for them. When the minister and official are corrupt, irritating and troublesome, you anger them.
“Thus one who excels at administering a state, governs the people as parents governs their beloved children or as an older brother act towards his beloved younger brother. When they see their hunger and cold, they are troubled for them. When they see their labors and suffering, they grieve for them.
“Rewards and punishments should be implemented as if taking from yourself. This is the way to love the people.”
