'MCA go home' vs 'Where was DAP 13 years ago?' at Jonker Walk
What?! Gan qualified his being there as a survey, not to protest? Let alone to lead the protest? Did Mr. Gan Tian Loo realize that the MCA protest carries more weight than DAP protest many times
over. The state government, being UMNO-led government, considers the DAP as the opposition working hand-in-hand with PAS and PKR to oust UMNO from power, rescinding the directive on the request
from DAP leaders will make the party even more popular. I thought, at first, here come the MCA, finally to do what it's supposed to do. Then the expected happened. He got cold feet. The
reporter who covered the protest reported Gan was suddenly cautious . He was like ..."I'm here to lend my support to..the .. no, wait! I am not here to support the traders - but just to do a quick
survey! But I am glad to be standing here with the protesters but reporters, please put it down in black and white I am not, I repeat, am not here as part of the protest. This is the reason the MCA
was shunned, I mean has been shunned by the Chinese. They do not represent the Chinese anymore. They cannot get things done anymore unlike in the old days. Gan admitted his meeting with the chief
minister was fruitless, but would keep trying. Keep trying for what? He should stop embarrassing the MCA and reducing its credibility further by continuing to beg despite being rebuffed earlier.
Again, this proved that the Malaysian Chinese Association has really completely lost its usefulness. If a small matter like Jonker Walk closure was beyond its power then, that 's it.

The following stories may fire your imagination, pique your interest. Some say 1MDB is Malaysia's Sovereign Wealth fund; to others they asked what wealth fund when its total capitalization is just One million ringgit? But, then again, if you think you can look down on the pet idea of the Malaysian prime minister, think again. His idea has the potential of turning the now world famous - or shall we say, infamous - 1Malaysia Development Berhad into a giant corporation you can ever imagine - even bigger than Bill Gate's Microsoft! At least, it could be, if the original course is stayed. It was supposed to inspire Malaysians to think big besides advance growth, according to its slogans screaming out of giant bill boards throughout the country. 'Backed' by the finance ministry who owns it - which means money will never be the problem - it can only succeed. But..it didn't. It failed! That's why it may have piqued many people's curiosity. How can a company flush with cash and can borrow any amount (billions) anytime could fail? Well, this may be in line with your thinking. People have seen since its inception - I mean after its name was changed in 1999 from Trengganu Investment Authority (TIA) to the present - it hasn't done any business! I have used present tense deliberately. It hasn't done any business yet. I mean if you are in business you need to make profit or find ways to make profit. Or close shop. Oh, I had heard about their filings of tax returns and hiring of a couple of internationally known auditors to sign off on their balance sheets; but these concerned only the company's borrowings and interests to be paid. Two massive bonds were issued to the tune of $7 billions. To buy up power plants. Again I want to say if you are in business to make money even investing in independent Power Plants, it should be done with the view to making a profit. The decision may be long term or short term, it doesn't matter, it has to make money, or no deal. May be they have done the right thing. Maybe luck was not on their side. Still, the amount is staggering. I didn't know having or managing so much money can be a problem! But many - especially the Malays - have not given up hope yet. Yes, may be the durians are just ripening; may be they need time and may fall soon!

Malaysia's Vision 2020
By:David Lang
Malaysia is supposed to be on its way to becoming a developed nation, by the year 2020. Will she make it (in less than five years -tick-tuck, tick-tuck)? There is no doubt the year 2020 is coming whether the country is ready or not, and if that will be the only requirement then Malaysia will attain that developed nation status on schedule. There is a question, though, Will Malaysia, or Malaysians, for that matter, be ready for that status as far as their affluence, quality of life's concern? Currently Malaysia's GNI per capita stood at US$10060. According to the World Bank high income economies are those with GNI per capita of US$12,745. And until Malaysians earn much more to be there, the developed nation status may not be achieved even by the year 2020. The futility of declaring a country a high income country when it's not, achieves nothing. May be even counter-productive; it lulls the country into false sense of success and premature celebration. Don't forget China reportedly overtook Japan as the world's second largest economy, but in actual fact China's citizens' ca pita income is a fraction of the incomes of the Japanese who earn $37,000. Chinese incomes range from $13,000. China's gross domestic product, taken as a whole, may beat Japan's, but in term of quality of life, and GNI per capita income, the criteria for a developed nation status, China still has a lot of catching up to do. That's why China still qualifies as recipient of Japan's economic aid meant for developing countries. Comparing with the Chinese per capita domestic product, Malaysia is even worse off. Unless the government bucks up and rushes to create more wealth for its citizens, the Vision 2020 dream may remain just that ..a dream.

The Obamacare And Its Ambiguous Pitching And Increasing Premiums
Hillary Clinton Equally To Blame For Obamacare Debacle
This article was earlier published in my MSNBC Newsvine Column
Those who vote for Hillary Clinton do so in futility; it won't do any good as she hasn't said anything about abrogating the burden-some Obamacare that everyone knows and believes now it's never intended to help the poor or the uninsured to insure themselves so that they can turn to in time of need.
It was in fact lied by President Obama with the straight face that Obamacare or its legislation would not force people to abandon their old insurance or doctor and be forced to signup for Obamacare.
Obama managed to put many Americans at ease due to this promise. Did Obama keep his word? No! His promise of even the moon in the beginning was later reneged by Obama and his white assistants. The operative word was to help the poor or those who opted to not buy insurance. But in reality to con them to change; from being not interested to insure themselves to being interested and persuaded to embrace Obamacare with many promises such as reasonable and stable prices, few if any were true or kept.
Now after many years and many broken promises later, the Obamacare never cares about people like its name says at all. Now there's no doubt everyone agrees all who signed willingly or were forced were lied to and cheated. Now everyone is praying for a white knight to come charging and rescuing them the victimized believers of Obama's ambiguous pitching for his pet project Obamacare - unflinchingly backed by all Democrats including Hillary Clinton.
I don't think all the Democrats such as Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton are dump people or were temporarily dump when Obama asked them to support his Obamacare and did as asked. They are well -read people they can't deny now they had no idea what Obamacare was all about, whether it would help the poor Americans as trumpeted by President Obama. If they had doubt they should not go along with Obama's plan; if they were in doubt they should not encourage or allow the poor Americans to sign up for something which they now don't need and yet can not get out. They - the Democrats including the presidential candidate Hillary Clinton - committed negligence of duty to their Democratic members, supporters, American citizens at large and the United States of America. They should lose Congressional and Senate seats, and Hillary Clinton her presidential bid, as punishment.
There should be no compromise; they should not try to argue their way out like Obama does that not everything about Obamacare is bad. But the main point is they - Obama and his Democratic leaders - lied about the goodness of Obamacare - by being ambiguous about everything in the beginning to lure people to sign up. Once done and dusted they were abandoned, or threatened with law to compel adherence. That's why during the campaign for November election Hillary Clinton needs to mount a vigorous campaign to create a din to soil Trump's name and reputation by playing those old videos featuring those roped in women to attack Trump for bad-mouthing them or kissing them in the mouths which they were OK with when it happened, to cover up the faults and increasing cost of Obamacare. The American people should not forget about this betrayal by the Democrats. Checked. Do you wish to know more?

Ananda Krishnan Was Roped In To Bailout 1MDB And Paid Handsomely
Ananda Krishnan Bailed Out 1MDB And Was Paid Handsomely
After a negotiation which took a while - while the fate of IMDB and by extension, the fate Malaysia's banking system hangs in the balance - Datuk Seri Ananda Krishnan gave his nod.
Why he took so long? Can't you figure that out yourself? It's to extract maximum result, of course; how do you think Bumiputra Status was given to Indians - their birthright?
Who's privy to the behind the scene brainstorming (the negotiation) before the word "deal" was uttered by the Indian tycoon - could they enlighten us the total cost the IMDB - and by extension, Malaysian government - have to pay besides declaring the Tamils as sons and daughters of soil, which entitles them to become prime ministers, for the bailout?
By the way, the Chinese should not be overly jealous of the Tamils as their tycoon was very generous which gladdened UMNO's heart no end. There are no reasons why the Chinese should not show UMNO they also can be helpful if UMNO found themselves in tight corner again.
The Chinese tycoons could get UMNO interested by hiring a journalist to highlight who are the ten richest men in Malaysia and then featuring themselves on the list, of course. Then all they have to do is sit tight and wait..for a delude of phone calls which are sure to come.
There are many rich Chinese in Malaysia - that's why they are deemed as controlling the economy - quite few may even be richer than Ananda Krishnan - among them sugar king of Malaysia Robert Kuok - who could earn the bumiputra status for the Chinese, too, when the time comes.
Then when it's over, the Chinese can also be accused of controlling political power, as well, after one of them becomes prime minister!
Then maybe a genuis UMNO leader would come along to mine the bumiputra status like a "Tin Pan" propecting for gold in 'Pale Rider' and goes to town to offer, sic, Tun Abdul Razak Hussein's invention, Bumiputra Status, for sale to the highest bidder. And unlike the original Bumiputra Status, there will be no discrimination - all, including Chinese or Chinese companies from China, qualify!
All you need is money and your problems are solved. Money really can buy everything! Checked.

Hillary Clinton Not Strong Enough To Be Good President
Voting For Hillary Clinton Like Voting For Obama Again
Margaret Thatcher who remained the only woman who never bowed to any man or woman, was lucky her reign was not now or a few years ago.
She escaped being brought down or forced to adopt a doctrine of one man; otherwise her name wouldn't be remembered as one of the greatest prime ministers of Great Britain, an iron lady of her government. But viewed as an ordinary, yes, just an ordinary woman prime minister, which is not bad considering that she was a woman. Hypothetically speaking a lot of British people would suffer as most if not all her policies would be dictated by a man. A man who is parading himself as a Christian while in actual fact is a Muslim. This fact is confirmed by the man himself. But the Western media refused to play up, but try to cover up, instead.
Margaret Thatcher was lucky in that she didn't have to witness the destruction of her own religion by her own party, the Conservative Party. She was saved by God from having to carry out or witness the destruction of her beloved British way of life. The life that was once full of gaiety and happiness when the time to celebrate Christmas and be merry came.
The former iron lady was lucky to have been shielded from having to feel indignant that her ancestors'way of life had been changed and taken over by non-British and many British leaders of even her own Conservative Party had helplessly or otherwise acquiesced!
The former British prime minister was lucky she didn't live to witness the destruction of the prosperous, progressive and peaceful Libya by none other than her own Conservative prime minister in cahoots with two other foreign powers, who had vested interest in causing its leader Muammar Qaddafi to be publicly forced to fight in a war he's sure to lose. Just imagine a great leader of a country who was previously welcomed with open arms in all European capitals, to the extent he was spoiled by Western leaders to even be allowed to set up his signature Arab tents while visiting their countries.
The only crime the Libyan leader committed was he wanted to withdraw his money from French banks as he suspected a French Jewish poet Bernard-Henri Levy was collaborating with French government to aid and grow the jihadist forces in Eastern Libya to fight against his government. The reaction by French banks was panic and panic, and they warned President Sarkozy if French banks went under his government would also go under!
Even the British prime minister did hold some grudges against Qaddafi for his intelligence's officers' role in Pan Am bombing.
Among all three cahoots, the one with least reason to get rid of Qaddafi was Obama. The leader of the pack. Of course, he was motivated by his desire to help or save the jihadists or Muslim Brotherhood.
But the man at the center of the budding of the conflict was the French playboy philosopher, who French people credited with being the man who toppled Qaddafi.
He went into Eastern Libya - the wrong place to be for someone like him with clearly Jewish sounding name - to foment rebellion. And foment he did. By telling them the jihadists he could get aid for their cause from French president, he was allowed to come and go but with little affection.
Professor Bernard Levy may be an intellectual but he's far from smart. He claimed he's a Jewish but he helped Israel's enemies who wanted to destroy the Jewish state if they could.
The real reason, however, the playboy professor feared death; earlier death. So he, like other intellectuals in Europe namely Scotland and England, want to get into the good books of the terrorist Muslims in the hope they will be spared the much publicized beheading and other brutal acts directed against their enemies - both Muslims or non-Muslims.
But alas, their good deeds mean nothing to the terrorists, in fact quite futile. Don't forget IS even kill fellow Muslims!
Even an Intellectual as Bernard Henri Levy doesn't mean he's not stupid. By plotting against the Jewish state by collaborating with the Jewish state's enemies; so that he can be safe is dump - nobody is more dump than that.
He went to help the Eastern Libyans because of this; solely this. He's the most selfish man ever lived. A man, a Jewish man who plotted against his Jewish nation so that he can be safe! A scum of this earth. Let's pray to Jewish God to deliver this scum to the IS so that he can be publicly beheaded..in Eastern Libya if possble!
Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever wondered why Europe is upside down and law and order collapsing? Liberalism, leftism inspired by Obama and last but not least, Obama's emergence and presence in the world; even worse as president of the US as he will cow European leaders to adopt his doctrine to help promote Islam and be compassionate to Muslim migrants' plight is your answer.
I mentioned earlier of French banks'warning - if French banks went down due to Qaddafi withdrawing his money to park elsewhere, Sarkozy also would follow. It was in fact Qaddafi who stopped the Muslim refugees for Europe until the three cahoots got rid of him! Now Europe is paying the price - reaping what the three leaders sowed.
While Professor Bernard Henri Levy could be blamed for instigating the Eastern Libyans to rebel against Qaddafi, the Libyan strongman cannot be toppled by these terrorists alone.
It was Obama who led the intervention of Libya, and who used the ten-nation-strong NATO (as the commanding general was American) to bomb Libya to its knees, and allowed the terrorists to kill Qaddafi in cold blood.
David Cameron even reacted to the news of Qaddafi being killed like a rat in a sewage pipe some where in Libya with glee in London!
In conclusion, because they sinned against a man who meant them no harm at all, and who had been preventing the avalanche of Muslim refugees heading into Europe, Europe is now turned upside down and its own citizens will become minorities in their own countries soon! Checked. Do you wish to know more?
Remember: don't vote for Hillary Clinton! For their crime against Libyans, these three cahoots and the professor will pay dearly and reap what they sowed. Do you wish to know more?
