Are we going to sit still and wait for another death

Are we going to sit still and wait for another death ?



Teoh Beng Hock was just a 30 year old man aspiring to serve his country one day. He was to be engaged the day before his sudden death to his fiancee that is now 2 months pregnant with his child. Teoh is now dead.



I can only guess and conclude that Teoh definitely did not kill himself and that is what the authorities don't want us to believe. The two heads of MACC, Datuk Ser Ahmad Said Hamdan and Datuk Shukri both claimed that MACC is not responsible as Teoh have been released from questioning. The officers of MACC questioned and probably tormented a person for more than 8 hours until 4 am in the morning and then released him so they as claimed. According to them, Teoh was so tired he decided to take a rest in the settee until he decided to take some fresh air and jump out the window.



Are we to believe them? Teoh was released and as such, no longer MACC responsibility. Show us the release letter . How can MACC not be responsible ? He was killed in their premises for damn sake. The culture of disowning responsibility by Heads of Government departments and from Ministers are common in Malaysia. Until the day they are sacked, they will continue to disown responsibility.



I sense that the people are all getting really angry and frustrated and at worst, they will take to the streets and throw stones at MACC buildings. I say it is about time. After all, MACC only serves as UMNO's agents somewhat like how the SS and Nazis served Hitler.



We must no longer sit still and watched all those who are brave enough to fight for us suffer in vain. We must do our part even though it means we too may suffer the same fate. If we all rise together, what can the Police, Army or whatever that UMNO do against 10 Million people ? Yes, at least 10 Million of us hate this government and this is not a small number. If this happened in Thailand or even Indonesia, the present government would have fallen long ago.

Malaysia future going backwards

The recent announcement by our Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister, Muhiddin that Science and Mathematics will revert back to native languages from English will set Malaysia back to the Dark Ages. The reason is purely political. To win more votes from the rural folks and the urban Chinese speaking Chinese. Noted that I did not say Urban Malays. I think most would like to see to maintain as an English taught subject.

Their reason given is very shallow like all decisions of the Government. There is negligible improvement when the subjects are taught in English. What happens when after another 6 years after the implementation and there is no improvement. Revert back to English? This ping pong policy of our Government destroy all confidence in most of us on the future of our children.

What the government should have done is to have English language schools or fully sponsored tuition classes to teach English in the rural areas. Get good English teachers from England. There are so many of them willing to work in Malaysia. I should know. I bump into so many of them in Phuket alone. They go there for 2 to 4 years, teach in private schools and enjoy their time diving. We can easily attract them to work in the rural areas of Pahang, Trengganu and Kelantan.

I am just an average Joe in Malaysia and cannot afford to send my children to fancy International schools but have to put them in National schools like most average Malaysians. I speak my Hokkien dialect fairly well but English better as I was educated in Christian Missionary school, La Salle. My children can hardly speak any Hokkien but that does not bother me. What is important is that they learn the languages that will offer them a better success in their future ie English and Mandarin.

I will vote out the silly people who wants to maintain or go backwards on their decision. I will even vote against Anwar Ibrahim. So what he has fought hard against the present Government? Adhoc policies to gain votes is not acceptable. In Malaysia, 70% of the votes from rural constituencies determined the composition of the seats of the government, so pleasing rural folks is more important to stay in power than pleasing the urbanites who fund the government in terms of income taxes.
