ISA Is Not healthy For Children…

ISA is not healthy for children and other living things

I just can’t resist but to borrow this classic logo created by Los Angeles artist Lorraine Schneider at the height of the Vietnam war, and adapt it to the Anti-ISA campaign. War is not healthy for children and other living things, so is ISA! We want an end to ISA!

Tonight 8pm at the Esplanade, Penang

Raja Petra Kamarudin - I want you…

I’m sure we are all very happy and encouraged now that RPK is freed! But do we stop here. No, heaven forbids! We are to continue to call on the government to release every ISA detainees and give them a fair trial and abolish the ISA. We are not done yet!

THE ISA IS STILL A HEINOUS WEAPON USED BY THE GOVERNMENT!
WE WILL CONTINUE AND SPREAD IT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY
UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT, OR A NEW GOVERNMENT
ABOLISH THE ISA.

WE WANT CHANGE.
THOSE WHO DO NOT WANT CHANGE
SHOULD GET OUT OF THE WAY
OF THOSE
WHO WANT CHANGE.

(Qoute from Zorro-Unmasked)

 Raja Petra said: “Not many people have challenged the act (ISA) so much and I did not have much high hopes (of being released).

“This application allowed under Section 8 is a special prize. I am tired.”

“This showed ISA cannot be used. I hope this is not a political decision. I don’t want to be the prime minister. I want Anwar to be the PM,” he said.

“We have to fight all-out and get the ISA abolished,” he told reporters.

RPK Free: Court Orders Raja Petra’s Release

Latest News: RPK free!

RPK Free - He’s back again

God heard the prayers of the righteous. The truth shall always previal! You can’t work in the dark, God will expose it in the light.

Now that RPK is free, let’s continue to keep the candles burning and expect the release of the Hindraf Five and all ISA detainess. And most of all. the Abolishment of ISA!

Now we like to hear what the Home Minister got to say. He goes beyond his power. I wonder is it possible to sue the Home Minister for making an illegal detention?

Syed Ahmad Helmy said there was no relevance for the minister to issue the order against Raja Petra on the basis of mala fide.“Following this, the court finds there is a procedural non-compliance as stated under Section 8(1) of the ISA based on the minister’s affidavit.

“Hence the court finds the minister had acted ultra vires (beyond his powers) in issuing the detention order under the ISA section. For example, the minister cannot issue an order if a person has in bad faith decided to colour his hair red.

“Following this, the court is allowing the plaintiff’s application and order for his release,” the judge said.

Raja Petra’s lawyer Malik had said during submissions earlier that the court has jurisdiction to scrutinise the detention order, to determine if it was made in bad faith.

“This is not a situation like Jemaah Islamiyah or communists. This is just a man whom the government thinks can bring it down to its knees,” the counsel had argued.

Will Malaysia Ever Do An “Obama?”

Posted in LIFE, PICTURE TALK, AROUND THE BLOG, MALAYSIA, CITIZEN'S COLUMN, NEWS on November 6th, 2008

Will Malaysia Ever do an “Obama?” 

Will this ever happened in Malaysia? Nah!

Peter Ooi: Is it for real that a black man has been elected as the president of the USA? Unbelievable but it is true!

It can only be true for a nation which would settle for nothing but the best.

Yes, Obama is the best even though he is black. And the Americans have chosen the best regardless of colour.

It is this attribute that makes the US the greatest nation on earth. It through their exploitation of all available brains and talents of all races that has propelled them to be the first in all fields whether it is the race to the moon or winning the most number of Nobel prizes.

How I wish such a policy is practised at home. And how I dream that our government can exploit the brains and talents of every race so that we could be among the best in the world.

The biggest dream is for Malaysians to emulate the Americans in electing a prime minister regardless of race but I think I am dreaming too much.

Even appointing a non-Malay to a small position to head PKNS had seen so much protest.

But I would still dream on, though a distant one!

Sang Kancil: Change is the essence if life. To refuse change is to refuse to live. This is a fundamental principle that the Americans have understood well.

A community which was regarded as slaves have rose up to lead the most powerful nation in this world. A fantastic transformation!

My dear brother Obama, you have made all the blacks and also me proud. But one point is still bothering me - will the same transformation happen in Malaysia?

Very unlikely. Appointing a Chinese or an Indian to an acting GM’s post in PKNS is already creating chaos, what more an Indian PM for Malaysia. It is really next to impossible.

Abdullah Badawi: On the historic victory obtained by Barack Obama as the new American president today, Abdullah said that the reality of leaders being chosen regardless of race can happen anywhere.

“What happened in America today was not decided by Washington or any one group but by the American people themselves through the democratic process and elections that have existed for so long in America,” he said

Yea sure. Just walk the talk and stop the gibberish talk. So let us the Malaysian people decide who should be the Prime Minister, instead of passing on the baton!

Never A Threat To Us All (Another Brick In The Wall)

Posted in MUSIC, LIFE, PICTURE TALK, MALAYSIA, CITIZEN'S COLUMN, VIDEO, ABOLISH ISA CAMPAIGN on November 4th, 2008

Sing to “Another Brick In the Wall” by Pink Floyd. I hope my re-written lyrics will do justice to this awesome and powerful song. I called it “Never A Threat To Us All.” Anyway, sing along and enjoy the beautiful guitar riffs at the end of the song.

 

 Never A Threat To Us All (Another Brick In The Wall)

We don’t need no segregation
We don’t need no thought control
No fabrication, in the newsroom
Listen, leave them people alone
Hey! Listen! Let them people go
After all, they were, never a threat to us all
All in all, you’re just, another brick in the wall

We don’t need no Mahathirism
We don’t need no I.S.A
No tainted trials, in the courtroom
Listen, leave them people alone
Hey! Listen! Let them people go
After all, they were, never a threat to us all
All in all, it’s just, another brick in the wall
