Salam Hari Raya Aidil Fitri 1431H saya hulurkan kepada semua umat Islam di Malaysia serta selamat bercuti kepada semua warga Malaysia. Semoga 1 Syawal yang mulia ini dapat memberi berkat dan rahmat buat kita semua. Sempena Syawal sebagai bulan suci bagi umat Islam untuk membersihkan diri dari segala gejala buruk, saya dengan rasa rendah diri ingin memohon maaf jika ada salah silap yang sememangnya tidak disengajakan. Untuk itu, saya harap kita dapat bersama-sama kembali kepada sifat kemanusiaan yang jujur dan ikhlas dengan membuang sifat-sifat keji seperti perkauman dan keagamaan yang melampau. Bagi saya, agama membawa kebaikan insan dan bukannya pencetus kepada sikap benci-membenci. Kasih sayang antara jiran, antara sahabat, malah antara penyokong politik yang berbeza fahaman adalah penting kerana kita semua adalah sama dan setaraf sebagai manusia. Sebarang perbezaan fahaman politik boleh dibincang atau dibahaskan, bukannya dibenci atau dihina; bukannya dikenakan tindakan undang-undan...

By: Wong Choon Mei, Malaysia Chronicle Concern is rising that Prime Minister Najib Razak has begun a series of moves including the use of force to retain control of Malaysia. Sparking the speculation is the second-day shutting down of popular political blog Malaysia Today run by the controversial Raja Petra Kamaruddin. RPK had accused Najib’s government of buying small arms – pistols, sub-machine guns, stun-grenades and so forth – from underground sources in the overseas black markets. Until now, the PM has not responded to the allegations nor has he explained why the Youth wing of his Umno party is suddenly embarking on paramilitary training . “This is extremely worrying. There must be impartial investigation to check if the allegations are true. It is very alarming because it has all the footprints of an Umno maneuver. Of late, it has been displaying the characteristics of ultra movements in line with the rise of Nazism and Facism,” PKR strategic director Tian Chua told Malaysia Chro...

By: Raja Petra Kamarudin (Malaysia Today) - What I am concerned with is the latest revelation of the Malaysian government purchasing millions of rounds of ammunition and tens of thousands of pistols, submachine guns and stun grenades. And this is the Malaysian government's shopping list. 9mm pistols & accessories 9mm submachine guns & accessories 7.62mm sniper ammunition 9mm para subsonic ammunition 9mm para hollow point ammunition (a hit from this bullet in the body = 100% dead) Stun grenades One-Bang Stun grenades 7-Bang Now, there is nothing wrong with governments buying bullets, pistols, submachine guns and stun grenades, even in the millions of rounds and tens of thousands of pieces like what the Malaysian government is doing. All governments do this, even the Malaysian government. But this particular cache is not being procured through normal channels. There is no tender being called for this purchase. It is being negotiated through "underground" sources, th...
