SOG:
Azmin akan jarang keluar bila mak dia keluar. Bila dah reda isu baru nampak muka

31/8/12 @1o.30pm
Mkini publishing minutes per minutes event of the activist movement at Dataran Merdeka. Something about Selangor state govt merdeka event and “Save Jalan Sultan”. Site linked to google news
Whylah they go and kacau the honorable merdeka eve?
Serve rakyat first lah…
nothing is sacred for them.
Sad. Spitting in the air internationally. Save Malaysia.
They are utilising the strength of perception(and not about performance) to the fullest to gain votes.
Choose stability and reason.
typo error:
30/8/12 instead of 31/8/12

Malaysiakuno says:
“12.20am – Dataran Merdeka – A Samad Said declares the Janji Demokrasi gathering a success but is unable to estimate a crowd figure.
Malaysiakini journalists estimates that the yellow shirts number at 10,000.”
This means that the actual number of yellow shirts turn out was only 2,000.
Many of the photographs show non-yellow shirted Merdeka eve revelers out to watch the fireworks etc. Of course the close-up photos would show only the yellow-shirted buggers.
Remember, for the Bersih 3.0 rally, they estimated the crowd in the Pasar Seni car park area to be 10,000. For that figure, many would have been dead, piled up one on top of the other! Those estimating were of course the one-eyed monster kind. Or delusional, grandiosity-stricken, truth-forsaking, don’t-care- what devils. The devils we know.
At least the Samad Said old man fellow is being realistic this time. I don’t mind his national laureate award but I don’t like his “sajak kuning” – a reference many years ago to the corrupted kind of culture promoted by the rebellious, non-conforming so-called artistes.
Clearly the yellow shirts are out of steam. We don’t hear Ambigaga. She’s probably black shirted in her closet on Merdeka eve.
Been wondering who exactly is this Maria Chin Abdullah, what she does for a living, who pays her “stipend” (Lim Guan Eng’s word when bribing Tunku Aziz), what school she went to, what upbringing she had, what made her go the yellow way, etc.
Maria Chin Abdullah is a lawyer.
Involved in women’s rights, illegal rallies. Served as:
National Women’s Coalition president
All Women Action Society (Awam) president
Executive director of the Women’s Development Collective
Executive director, Persatuan Kesedaran Komuniti Selangor
Programme manager for Sisters in Islam
Member, Bersih committee
Not much heard she fighting court cases. Mebbe coz too much off-court cases.
Not much heard of the NGOs she represents. Mebbe coz on other side of the fence.
Watever heard is not pleasant news – illegal gathering on eve of Merdeka, illegal Bersih rallies. Police said those were illegal.
Sorry STL off topic but interesting background:
nutgraph (Opposition blog) Maria Chin interview: http://www.thenutgraph.com/maria-chin-abdullah-its-not-about-race-anymore/
Can you trace your ancestry?
All of them – [my paternal] grandparents and granduncles, even my great-grandfather and great-grandmother – came from southern China from a Hakka village called Chin.
They came as dulang washers and became tin miners.
I grew up in a tin-mine environment, spending most of my school holidays in my paternal grandparents’ house in Kampar.
My mother’s side, which is Cantonese, was also in the tin-mining business in Menglembu (in Perak).
My paternal great-grandfather actually had two wives. One was from Thailand. My great-grandmother, his other wife from China, was alive until she was 99 years old.
My grandmother was actually sold as a wife, and that’s how she came from China to Malaya to marry my grandfather. The belief at the time was that if you wanted [to conceive] a male [child], you gave away your female child. The thinking then was very traditional in that the boys were most important.
Because we came from this tin-mining background, three families stayed together. There was my grandfather, who was the eldest, then the second granduncle and the fourth one.
There were about 30 people staying in the same house. About 20 of us cousins grew up in that house. We spent our holidays going early in the morning to the tin mine.
There were three patriarchs in my father’s family, but it wasn’t the three men who controlled the money. It was actually my grandmother who was very fierce. She was able to ensure that everyone was well-fed and educated. She was unique in that sense. She was in charge of their tin-mining business, but she knew where she was in the male hierarchy and maintained that.
And your dad was born in Malaya?
Yes. My mother’s side also came from China. She was born in China. She came over and didn’t have any IC or birth certificate for many years until she was about to go overseas. She doesn’t even know which year exactly she was born in. But at that time, the registrar would register whatever year you told them. So, that’s how she got her birth certificate from Malaya.
So, you would be second-generation Malaysian from your father’s side and first-generation on your mother’s side?
Yes.
Did you speak Hakka and Cantonese when you were growing up?
Yes. I learnt Hakka from my father’s side and Cantonese from my mother.
The other thing I remember was 13 May. I was 13 at that time. I was in PJ. The riots happened in KL and we could see the smoke from where we stayed because we were quite near the Federal Highway. I think we were under curfew for six weeks or more in the house. We couldn’t go out. We had an uncle who was with the Special Branch. He brought food for us.
Prior to 13 May, we had a gang of friends and we usually went to each other’s house, regardless of our race and religion. I think 13 May actually eliminated a lot of that unconstrained friendship. Even though there was this call for muhibbah, I started to question, “What is the meaning of being Malaysian?”
Was that when you first became conscious of race?
Yes. I think 13 May actually made you think, “Oh, there is this segregation.” Because prior to that, there was no problem in terms of eating places getting mixed up. You would have a Malay hawker selling in a Chinese coffee shop. One noticeable change after 13 May was when the food shops started segregating.
The other thing was the NEP (New Economic Policy), where in its implementation, it failed to provide fair and just opportunities for all Malaysian students. In the 1970s and 80s, discrimination was felt in the quotas set in overseas scholarships. This did not help foster greater trust among the overseas Malaysians and was perceived as racial discrimination.
Being part of the Malaysian and Singaporean students’ movement in the UK, we tried to raise awareness among Malaysian students.
Note: A lawyer but not appreciate NEP objectives of bridging economic & education gap between Chinese & Bumiputeras. Don’t know if she appreciate Malay and Bumiputera Special Position fully. NEP came from that.
A lawyer but not appreciate Bersih and Merdeka eve rallies illegal. She was arrested at Bersih.
The background above tells why or not? Her mother never had I/C even in China. First time in her life got I/C – in Malaya. Hope she thankful. And she knew race riots 1969 but not appreciate NEP. Talk about race conscious. Strange.
that’s what lawyers are for
twisting and turning words to their advantage
>pakaturn<
When they first arrived they were cooped up in a house(reminds of indon and banglas a near time ago), but then due to their perseverance nature they got to be the rich elite and also lawyers.
Was the family tin mining business located here in malaya? If so, the lineage richness was mined in the soil here.
Reminds of what the mat salleh always like to say "Give back.."
Does everything has to be a rat race?
And about equality, even schools have separate class labeled accordingly to identify and help the slow ones. Is this special assistance slowing down the tuitioned geniuses and advantaged lots in A classes?
Also income tax structure is more lenient for the lower income strata
Likewise also road tax, stamp duty rate, lawyer's fee, price of petrol, etc
That's why people find joy in tithe….
This one not turning to their advantage. Turning against the law. Clearly knew it’s illegal. The Police said so. Bersih and last night’s thing.
She just exploiting. Assumed Police and government want to avoid confrontation. Their kind always exploiting. Always taking advantage. Always daring to take risk. Even risk of arrest. Daredevil kind.
Mebbe in their nature. The kind even selling women – “grandmother was actually sold as a wife.” Took risk to leave China. Mother even left without any birth certificate or IC. And don’t know how could get birth certificate in Malaya. She said clearly her mother got it in Malaya.
I wish the authorities teach her and her kind some good lessons. To make them not break the law as they like. Malaysia not safe and peaceful – even lawyers dare to break laws.
yeah their kind are exploiters.
in the truest word
even the honorable merdeka night is not spared by the agenda
Their goal is an attention of foreign media. They’re actors and actress paid by PR.
Again another failed provocations.
Assmin is a liar. If we watch Bersih 3.0 video on youtube, we can see how he ‘calm’ down the crowd by telling them that top PR people is negotiating with Police to allow them to go into Dataran Merdeka (What a point of negotiating when it is court order).
After the announcements he just jump down and standing near the barricade doing nothing, blur. Until Anuwar give him signal to open up the barricade suddenly he comeback to life.
It just like brand. If it is PR you don’t buy!
Azmin is doomed as he has the curse of his mother. One lesson for all is to be filial to your parents no matter how difficult & unreasonable they become especially when they are old. Why? because they brought to this world and they bring you up by providing all the necessities. Your mother has to endure 9 months of pregnancy and finally undevoted love to bring you up. I have the honor of bringing my old parents to stay with my family & myself until my mother pass away few years ago. Her dying words of praise for us is invaluable, no money can buy. My father is 86 years and still staying with me. Tough because he has dementia but end of day. It is satisfying. En. Azmin please seek your mother forgiveness before she goes or else you regret your whole life. Datuk Seri Anwar cannot help you.
True, your words.
bruce fam,
you are correct.
doa ibu paling afdhal, paling makbul, paling mustajab. tunggulah balasan di dunia (dan akhirat) jika en azmin tidak mendapat keampunan ibunya….
Dia tak kisah punya. Jenis ini, kalau mak dia boleh di jual, akan di jual mereka. Kalau dah banyak duit pun, dia akan jual dengan undi, kalau boleh. Sama jugak dengan boss dia Nuar. Jenis jahanam semua tu.
Dia apa kisah. Terlari sini, terlari sana, sibuk dengan politik konon, mana ada masa nak fikir fasal emak dia. Emak dia ada, ada lah. Takda pun, dia sedar pun tidak. Nanti dia dah tua macam Nuar, dah takda pengaruh politik, tak lagi terlari sana terlari sini, baru dia sedor.
Tapi kalau sekali sekali terlintas begitu dalam kepala dia pun, tentu dia kata, aaaah, aku awal 60an pun dah mampos. Darah tinggi, sakit jantung, tekanan darah, tekanan jiwa fasal politik dsbya, entah entah aku mampos sebelom umur 60 tahun pun.
Jadi, apa dia kisah punya. Pengtahuan agama, praktik agama pun ala kadar. Dalam hati dia, kalau yang mimpin PAS pun sanggup menipu helah, tak kisah akidah, dia PKR apa lagi.
Jadi, kita kena selalu basuh dia di sana sini lah. Supaya rakyat tak undi dia dan puak dia. Lagi cepat dia hilang pengaruh politik, lagi lebih peluang nak selamatkan roh maanusia mcm dia ni.
The worst party is PAS ! PAS is fanatic religious party or PARTY AGAMA SESAT. They use religious to get politic. If Malaysia rule by them sure will be like Afghanistan during Taliban rule. They so sincere to religious but why Allah no help them win all the election ? Religious use in politic that will no fair to others faith. All human is equal but religious make human difference and make a lot problem to human
Thank you. Very useful article.
