  • Singaporean Malays Should Endorse Dr Tan Cheng Bock As Malay So He Can Contest EP

    Singaporean Malays Should Endorse Dr Tan Cheng Bock As Malay So He Can Contest EP

    Halimah Yacob is considered a Malay by the Malay community. Therefore, we should not fetter about trying to say Halimah Yacob is or is not Malay.

    Instead, start by going to your local Malay community, neighbours, void decks, and convince your Malay friends/co-workers to consider Tan Cheng Bock as a Malay by the Malay community. (He does not need to be Muslim. Malay!= Muslim).

    Being part of the Malay community does not mean you have to be Malay by race, many Indians, Sarawakan, Peranakan, Javanese, Arabs can be considered Malay even though they are distantly related by race.

    As long as The Bock is legitimized as a member of the Malay Community, he would be eligible to run as President.

    Zed Zaidi: Aliff Aziz Tak Respect Artis Malaysia, Akan Dicari Sampai Dapat Kalau Aliff Perangai Lagi

    Boleh tahan beremosi juga Zed Zaidi memberi pandangan mengenai isu Aliff Aziz yang hangat diperkatakan baru baru ini. Walaubagaimanapun, Zed selaku Presiden Seniman itu juga dalam masa yang sama masih menghormati pelakon berkenaan.

    “Dari sudut pandangan saya, bagi saya, Aliff, lu memang tak gentleman. Sebab sebagai lelaki patut kita menghormati wanita lebih lebih lagi isteri kita yagn memang sentiasa di belakang kita”

    “Kalau nak cakap jujur, bagi akulah, kau ni dah mencemarkan imej artis Malaysia. Walaupun kau bukan artis Malaysia, kau kena respek artis Malaysia,” antara kata-katanya kepada Rotikaya.

    Selain itu, Zed turut mengaitkan beberapa lagi kes melibatkan artis luar yang datang ke Malaysia sebelum ini dan menegaskan mengapa dia ingin menghalang kebanjiran artis luar negara di Malaysia. Namun kata Zed, jika ingin bawa artis luar datang ke Malaysia, biarlah yang berkualiti dan membantu industri tanah air terutamanya dari sudut cukai.

    Di penghujung video, Zed sempat menyuarakan lagi pendapatnya sendiri berkenaan isu tersebut selain menegaskan supaya Aliff Aziz tidak mengulangi perkara yang sama buat kali kedua.

    “Aku ni tahan sabar ni sebab apa sebab aku masih respect kau lagi sebab isteri kau. Kau kena ingat tau, isteri yang kau pukul tu rakyat Malaysia tau. Aku buat complaindengan imigresen dan macam-macam – yang memang kau tak boleh masuk Malaysialah”

    “Jadi, masa ni aku masih respect. Jadi jaga perangai kau. Kau dah berjanji tadi aku tengok, yang memang kau tak nak buat lagi. Tapi kali kedua kau buat, lu jagalah bro, gua cari lu sampai dapat,” tegasnya menutup bicara.

    Jika anda mempunyai banyak masa, bolehlah tonton video pendek di bawah untuk mendengar sendiri apa yang diperkatakan oleh Zed Zaidi.

  • Saudi Arabia: Demands To Internationalise Holy Sites ‘A Declaration Of War’

    Saudi Arabia: Demands To Internationalise Holy Sites ‘A Declaration Of War’

    Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister called what he said was Qatar’s demand for an internationalization of the Muslim hajj pilgrimage a declaration of war against the kingdom, Saudi-owned Al Arabiya television said on Sunday, but Qatar said it never made such a call.

    “Qatar’s demands to internationalize the holy sites is aggressive and a declaration of war against the kingdom,” Adel al-Jubeir was quoted saying on Al Arabiya’s website.

    “We reserve the right to respond to anyone who is working on the internationalization of the holy sites,” he said.

    Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said no official from his country had made such a call.

    “We are tired of responding to false information and stories invented from nothing,” Sheikh Mohammed told Al Jazeera TV.

    Qatar did accuse the Saudis of politicizing hajj and addressed the United Nations Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion on Saturday, expressing concern about obstacles facing Qataris who want to attend hajj this year.

    Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain previously issued a list of 13 demands for Qatar, which included curtailing its support for the Muslim Brotherhood, shutting down the Doha-based Al Jazeera channel, closing a Turkish military base and downgrading its relations with Gulf enemy Iran.

    On Sunday, foreign ministers of the four countries said they were ready for dialogue with Qatar if it showed willingness to tackle their demands.

  • Abdul Salim Harun: Why Minority Candidates Need To Be Certified By Committee But Not Majority Candidates?

    Abdul Salim Harun: Why Minority Candidates Need To Be Certified By Committee But Not Majority Candidates?

    Food for thought:

    This coming Reserved Presidential Election has open up a can of worms. Race issues is being hotly debated on what it means to be a Malay, what defines a Malay.

    For me, I can consider myself lucky. After being born as a Malay (my IC indicates that I’m a Malay), and now turning to 36, I have been twice certified and approved (2006, 2011) by the Malay community committee set up by the Government that indeed, i am a Malay and is a member of the Malay community.

    I am deeply saddened though, for my fellow brothers and sisters who has not been certified yet as a Malay (even though their IC indicates so), as the committee has not certified them to be as one.

    Which brought me to ask the following question. Why do the minority candidates in every election, have to go and get themselves certified by the various minority community committees, before they can stand as a candidate?

    And why, the Chinese candidates, do not have to go through the same process and get themselves to be certified first as a Chinese before they are allowed to stand?

    And why is there this nonsensical policy at the first place?

    Isn’t this a discriminatory practice towards the minorities? Aren’t we what we are based on the IC? Why the certification to be approve of the race that you are born into and belongs to?

    Regardless of race, language or religion, this unhealthy practices has to be stop for once and for all.

    The PAP Government is preaching about racial harmony and unity but they aren’t walking the talk when what they do is basically racist and discriminatory in nature!

    What say you?
