I know I shouldn’t say “I told you so” but have a read of my yesterday’s post Anti-ISA protests magnified by FRU suppressions where I voiced my personal suspicion that the government’s seemingly mindless suppression of a peaceful protest rally was at the advice (or as I suspect, instigation) of the Police. I wrote:
Sometimes I wonder how stupid the relevant ministers had been to adopt such a counter-productive (for them) tactic - but more often than that, I wonder whether the Police had sinisterly, sinuously and successfully sold those dumbos the hardline approach ... obviously to enhance their own (police) importance and to suck the (so-called) political masters (or more likely, pundee morons) into total dependence on the men in blue.
And of course the IGP gets another highly undeserved extension to his contract.
Well, today, The Malaysian Insider published Kit Siang claims IGP out to get him, Pakatan leaders which read: DAP leader Lim Kit Siang has charged that the police are looking for him and other Pakatan Rakyat leaders in connection with yesterday’s anti-ISA rally in Kuala Lumpur because it is part of Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan's personal vendetta.
"Musa Hassan is wreaking personal vengeance against me and other Pakatan Rakyat leaders for the Parliamentary Roundtable last week calling for a new IGP to create a safe Malaysia," Lim said at a Kuantan DAP branch dinner last night.
Malaysiakini reported that PKR VP Sivarasa plus the wife and son of an ISA detainee, and to other children were also in custody.
Isn't it a shocking shame that teenagers have been remanded for days (presumably because they’re threats to ‘national security’?), whilst criminals are allowed to roam the streets, thanks to the incompetence of the IGP, whose contract was unfortunately extended for two years thanks to the incompetence of AAB.
In The Malaysian Insider’s Guan Eng says cops should remand criminals and not juveniles where we read of the DAP accusing the IGP for excessive, unwarranted and inhumane police action in crushing yesterday’s anti-Internal Security Act (ISA) rally.
Lim Guan Eng urged the BN government to disassociate itself from Musa and the harsh police action.
I say again what I had blogged yesterday, the Police under this awful IGP had, and continues to sinisterly, sinuously and successfully sold those dumbos the hardline approach ... obviously to enhance their own (police) importance and to suck the (so-called) political masters (or more likely, pundee morons) into total dependence on the men in blue.
Najib should consider sacking the IGP immediately or he'll be just as incompetent as AAB.
OK, maybe I shouldn't hold my breath waiting for the sacking ... but Najib should do us all a good turn (and unlike AAB, show his competence) by not extending the IGP's contract.
IN THE FIRST PLACE, WHY ARE THE KIDS THERE AND WHAT ARE DO DOING THERE.
ReplyDeleteTHEIR PARENTS KNEW THAT THERE IS AN ILLEGAL STREET DEMONSTRATION, THEN WHY BRING THEIR KIDS ALONG TO THESE
STREET PROTEST.
READING YOUR BLOG IT SEEMS THAT THE MOTIVE OF THESE ILLEGAL DEMONSTRATION IS TO CHAMPION THE CAUSE OF ANWAR IBRAHIM AND TO DIVERT THE RAKYAT ATTENTION ON ANWAR UPCOMING SODOMY CHARGES ON SAIFUL.
INTERESTINGLY AT THE END OF YOUR BLOG, YOU WROTE "Najib should consider sacking the IGP immediately or he'll be just as incompetent as AAB.
OK, maybe I shouldn't hold my breath waiting for the sacking ... but Najib should do us all a good turn (and unlike AAB, show his competence) by not extending the IGP's contract."
IT ONLY SHOWS THAT THE REAL AGENDA OG THESE ILLEGAL STREET PROTEST IS
TO PRESSURE THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO EXTEND THE APPOINTMENT OR RATHER TO SACK IGP TAN SRI MUSA HASSAN.
IT'S OBVIOUS THAT THE OPPOSITION HAVE CHEATED THOSE WHO PARTICIPATE IN THESE ILLEGAL STREET PROTEST.
CARE TO COMMENT KTEMOC..

ReplyDeleteFirst you say:
"IT SEEMS THAT THE MOTIVE OF THESE ILLEGAL DEMONSTRATION IS TO CHAMPION THE CAUSE OF ANWAR IBRAHIM AND TO DIVERT THE RAKYAT ATTENTION ON ANWAR UPCOMING SODOMY CHARGES ON SAIFUL."
Then further down:
"IT ONLY SHOWS THAT THE REAL AGENDA OG THESE ILLEGAL STREET PROTEST IS
TO PRESSURE THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO EXTEND THE APPOINTMENT OR RATHER TO SACK IGP TAN SRI MUSA HASSAN."
So which is it ? It is plainly obvious that you are (like the govt.) unsure of what the rakyat want.
We, the rakyat on the other hand, know that BN is Barisan Nazak (Nazak = moribund) and are clearly headed for the dustbins of history.
And one more thing. You mentioned "CHEATED". But isn't that BN's forte ?
So rave for all you want because that is all you and your ilk know.
No manners at all - using all CAPS!
Just shows your lack of breeding!
Careful my friend on your last sentence.
ReplyDeleteThe situation is like a high pressure cooker. So what do you do in order to avoid the pressure cooker from exploding? You release the pressure, simple as that but of course via a safety valve.
The govt and the men in blue were smart, they did not open the lid of the pressure cooker. If they had, the outcome would not be a happy one. But and this is a big BUT, instead of releasing, our friends decided to further pump up the pressure by tightening the safety valve. Now, there is no more hissing sound and all is silent.
What's gonna happen next?
"Musa Hassan is wreaking personal vengeance against me"
ReplyDeleteWhen I read that my initial reaction was "I think Kit Siang has been spending too much time with Anwar".
October 1947, a hartal is called . And the British colonial government lost 4 millions pound (1947 values, probably 1 hundred million ringgit for today money) .
ReplyDeleteAnd the media keep saying about RM 200 millions was loses because of road closure.
Did the BN propaganda machinery forget to learn the 1947 history? The course are so similar.
Karma is in play here. always.

ReplyDeleteWhat is wrong with a 16 year old demanding demanding the release of his father from ISA detention?
Criminals may be armed and can fight back, causing death or injuries to the police. Kids cannot. Simple as that.
ReplyDeleteIn the first place, why can't the police issue a permit and allow a peaceful march and play the role of protecting their own citizens as they march peacefully to support what they believe in? Why must the police resort o water canons and tear gas canisters? Don't they understand their role in a democracy?
