we need to be mindful of we write and what we talk. Tun Ismail (the late ) once said there is no absolute democracy but controlled democracy (to suit the powers to be ). Thailand is good example ( where over politicking )led to martial law.
Malaysian ( Chinese , Malays or Indians ) need to careful with their words. it can come back & haunt (you)in an unexpected manner. just be logical and argue with facts. the truth will always prevails.

Malaysian politicians have little sense of humour, least that of the self deprecating kind. What many have is an exaggerated sense of self importance. Add in misplaced pride and deep seated insecurities and you have a totally potent mixture in these types. When their moral authority is questioned, as in the Teresa Kok satire, you can have a potential conflagration in the making.

Don't forget BN "rules" the country.

Advise to All Politicians. Always Remember the Following:
"THE RAKYAT RULES YOU, YOU DO NOT RULE THE RAKYAT"
"DONT BE CORRUPT AS IT IS SO TEMPTING TO BE SO"
"DO NOT BEHAVE & ACT ARROGANT, JUST DO YOUR JOB AS A HUMBLE SERVANT TO SERVICE THE RAKYAT"
"SINK YOUR POLITICAL DIFFERENCES & WORK TOGETHER FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF THE PEOPLES WELFARE AS TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE"

There is absolutely nothing offensive in the video clip for Theresa kok to say sorry about, although there is a good dose of sarcasm. It is time for the Malaysian society to be critical vocally about the misdeeds and abuses in the country. I congratulate her for her courage to make that clip. To prosecute her will make Malaysia the butt of a joke internationally and incompatible even with the lowest democratic standards.

If not trying to impose your belief that Onewonderful is nothing offensive. What do majority malays think about it should be thought out. Its malays culture to ask for forgiveness evendo you did not do anything wrong. Theresa Kok should publicly say sorry evendo its just a sattire clip. But refusal to do so and continue to blame ruling government offend the malays to a point of no return. Involving PM Najib into this mess wont help either. Theresa Kok need to understand malay culture better or else Teluk Intan will be repeated in GE15.

Do not mask the truth simply with malay sensitivity. The problems are there and do not just ignore. In a democratic society, (particularly in one that aspires to be developed nation status in just 6 years)criticizing the government, including the PM, even in a satirical way, is nothing unusual and nothing wrong. Najib is being "involved" not because he is a Malay but because he is the PM. Please understand the difference.

BTW, I am amused by the fact that "Alvivi" have got off the hook for wishing the Muslim Selamat Berbuka Puasa by eating bak gut teh in a video clip. Even I, a non muslim Chinese, find what they did very naughty and offensive to the muslims and they should have been punished in some way and not let off.

A piece of advice to he potential suicide bombers from Malaysia that the quota for the 72 virgins have already over-subscribed by 100000 times. So stop joining the suicide bomber training programme and start investing in KLSE for a better returns.
No result.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
