My Comments:

Pagi ini saya dan isteri menyaksikan satu peristiwa yang benar-benar menyedihkan. Seorang lelaki Melayu muda sedang membuat penghantaran makanan dengan motosikalnya sambil membawa dua orang anaknya. Seorang kanak-kanak kecil duduk di depan manakala seorang bayi yang lebih kecil berada dalam baby carrier yang diikat pada dada si ayahnya. Jelas sekali si ibu sedang bekerja dan si ayah tidak mempunyai sesiapa lagi untuk menjaga anak-anak tersebut. Saya tidak tahu berapa lama anak-anak itu terpaksa berada di atas motosikal, dibawa ke sana sini bersama ayah mereka — di bawah panas matahari. Mereka tidak boleh berlari, bermain, malah susah pergi ke tandas sekalipun jika perlu. Satu pemandangan yang menyedihkan, tetapi beginilah keadaan di negara ini. Rakyat biasa, terutamanya orang Melayu, terlalu banyak menanggung penderitaan.

Padahal negara kita kaya raya. Setiap kali penjual ubat dan Abu Khaddab buka mulut mereka sebut berbeliyon-beliyon Ringgit untuk projek ini dan itu. 

Atau mereka ditangkap rasuah berpuluh juta Ringgit. Baru ini seekor Jembalang Betina pula disaman berpuluh juta sebab 'ghaibkan' jewellery mewah.

Berita panas sekarang Rohingya bermaharajalela mampu membuat rumah apartmen EMPAT tingkat. 



Illegally built? Hello brader tapi bangunan sudah built lah. Bangunan sudah siap sejak zaman Saloma kah? Nampak tak kabel letrik hitam itu (yellow circle)? Siapa lulus pasang kabel letrik? Sebelum boleh lulus mesti ada bayar fulus. Depa ada bayar api dan air tak? Ada resit tak? Mana resit dia? 

Sekarang sudah pecah tembelang depa nak roboh pula bangunan ini. Tapi ada orang kata perlu ada peruntukan RM600,000 untuk kerja-kerja robohkan bangunan haram ini.

Banyak cantik Tuan-Tuan. Sekarang kita pula kena bayar (DANA AWAM atau TAXPAYERS MONEY)  RM600,000 untuk robohkan bangunan haram. Siapa dapat kontrak RM600,000 roboh bangunan? Dulu masa bangunan haram naik, mesti ada geng tutup mata sebelah. Mesti ada geng yang dapat untung. 

Bila projek depa sudah bau t_ _k kita pula kena bayar RM600,000 untuk roboh kerja bodoh mereka. Bila untung depa yang sikit enjoy. Bila jadi masalah kita semua kena tanggung. Banyak cantik.

Ketirisan, rasuah, kebodohan, tak ada akal. penipu, pembohong, penyamun mereka-lah yang bermaharajalela. Mereka-lah telan duit kita dulu. 

Lihat gambar interview jawatan kosong di Melaka itu. Hampir semua yang beratur di tepi jalan itu anak Melayu. Yang menghancurkan masa depan mereka bangsa sendiri juga. Yang nak interview mereka beri peluang pekerjaan adalah syarikat German. 

The tragedy of Zaid Ibrahim





The tragedy of Zaid Ibrahim


There are politicians whose political journeys become so crowded with reinventions that one begins to wonder whether there was ever a fixed destination to begin with.

There are politicians who evolve.

There are politicians who learn.

There are politicians who change their minds because the world changes around them.

And then there are politicians whose political journeys become so crowded with reinventions that one begins to wonder whether there was ever a fixed destination to begin with.

Datuk Zaid Ibrahim has now joined PAS.

Let that sink in for a moment.

This is the same Zaid who built a national reputation as a moderate. The same Zaid who cultivated the image of a liberal constitutionalist.

The same Zaid who spoke eloquently about pluralism, moderation, civil liberties and the need for Malaysia to reject extremism.

The same Zaid who was often presented to Malaysia’s urban intellectual class as proof that reason and moderation still had a place in our politics.

Today, he is in PAS.

Not merely cooperating with PAS.

Not merely finding common ground with PAS.

A member of PAS.

A party whose senior leaders have, over the years, made statements that many non-Muslims and many moderate Muslims have viewed as exclusionary.

A party that continues to advocate for Hudud. A party whose vision of Malaysia has frequently raised concerns among those who believe our constitutional settlement was intended to protect a multicultural and multi-religious nation.

The obvious question is not whether PAS has the right to recruit him.

The obvious question is: what happened to all those principles?

For years, Zaid positioned himself as the thinking man’s politician. He was with UMNO when UMNO offered relevance.

Then, PKR, when reformasi offered relevance. Then KITA, when leadership offered relevance.

Then DAP, when the opposition wave offered relevance. Then back to UMNO when UMNO once again appeared useful. And now PAS.

At some point, the public is entitled to ask a simple question.

What exactly is the ideology here?

Because if every political destination becomes acceptable, then perhaps the destination was never the point.

Perhaps the journey itself was.

More specifically, perhaps remaining politically significant was.

I am often told that we should not question people’s motives.

Normally, I agree.

But politics is ultimately about trust.

And trust is built on consistency.

If a football manager changed clubs every season, supporters would ask questions.

If a politician changes ideological homes repeatedly, voters have every right to ask questions.

The defenders will say that Zaid is independent-minded.

Perhaps.

The defenders will say he follows his conscience.

Perhaps.

The defenders will say he is searching for the best vehicle to serve Malaysia.

Perhaps.

But eventually “perhaps” stops being enough.

Because every move creates a new contradiction.

When he joined DAP, he praised DAP’s progressive credentials.

When he returned to UMNO, he spoke of reforming UMNO from within.




Now he joins PAS.

Was DAP wrong?

Was UMNO wrong?

Or is PAS suddenly right?

They cannot all be true at the same time.

The deeper concern is not about Zaid himself.

Malaysia has survived bigger political disappointments than one man’s latest membership card.

The concern is what this says about our political culture.

We increasingly reward personalities over principles.

We celebrate clever commentary more than consistent conviction.

We mistake eloquence for courage.

And we confuse visibility with leadership.

Real leadership is not about finding the next stage from which to speak.

It is about standing where you are when it becomes difficult.

The people I admire most in life are not those who were always popular.

They are those who remained faithful to their principles even when it cost them influence, access, money or status.


Consistency is expensive

That is why it is so rare. As for Zaid Ibrahim, perhaps he genuinely believes PAS is now the best platform for Malaysia.

If so, he owes Malaysians a full explanation.

Not a slogan.

Not a press statement.

Not political poetry.

A real explanation.

What changed?

What did PAS change?

What did he change?

And what exactly was he offered that convinced him this latest political migration was necessary?

Until those questions are answered, many Malaysians will inevitably reach their own conclusion.

That this was never really about ideology.

It was about relevance.

And relevance, unlike principles, is always searching for a new home. - June 15, 2026

Zaid was a hero when he resigned on principles as Law Minister from the AAB cabinet because of ISA being applied on Teresa Kok, RPK and a Chinese media journalist. That's why I like him.

He joined PKR but was flabbergasted by the politics within - thanks to Ass-binte. He left out of disgust, as was I.

When he joined DAP, alas, the party bigwigs 'cold-shouldered' him, so what could he do but to leave once again - I understood his frustration at his 'no role' membership.

Thereafter he was a broken man, wandering into all sorts of yucky 'company'.

Poor Zaid - I still like him.


Prosecution seeks to restore death sentence for ex-student





Prosecution seeks to restore death sentence for ex-student


This follows the Court of Appeal’s decision to commute the death sentence to 40 years’ imprisonment and 12 strokes of the rotan on May 14

KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution has filed a notice of appeal at the Federal Court to reinstate the death sentence of a former college student who pleaded guilty to murdering and burning his pregnant girlfriend three years ago.

On May 14, the Court of Appeal commuted the death sentence to 40 years’ imprisonment and 12 strokes of the cane against Fakrul Aiman Sajali, 23, after allowing his appeal.

Lawyer Nor Tamrin, who represents Fakrul, confirmed the matter and said the notice of appeal was filed on May 25.


“Our party has received the notice and my client will not file a cross-appeal against the Court of Appeal’s decision.

“He accepts the decision and considers the judgment to be fair, equitable and free from any error that requires further challenge,” he said when contacted today.

He said Fakrul is currently serving his sentence at Kajang prison.

According to the notice of appeal, the prosecution is appealing against the entire decision of the three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal, consisting of Azman Abdullah, Ahmad Kamal Shahid and Radzi Harun, which changed the death sentence to a 40-year prison sentence from the date of arrest (May 23, 2023) and 12 strokes of the cane for the offence.

On Oct 15, 2025, the Klang High Court sentenced Fakrul, to death after he pleaded guilty to murdering Nur Anisah Abdul Wahab, 21, at Jalan Sungai Limau, Sabak Bernam, between 8.30pm on May 22, 2023 and 8am the next day.

The charge under Section 302 of the Penal Code carries a death sentence or a minimum of 30 years’ imprisonment and a maximum of 40 years. If an offender is not sentenced to death, he shall be subject to whipping of not less than 12 strokes.

Green Wave politics and limits of non-Malay influence in M'sia

“But there are no clocks where (the pendulum) only swings down, it also goes up. And I am confident, and I believe that Chinese voters, little by little, are returning to BN.”

- BN chairperson Ahmad Zahid Hamidi



COMMENT | Everyone from PKR’s William Leong to former MCA grand poobah, Chua Soi Lek are saying the non-Malays (specifically the Chinese community) can stop the Green Wave.

But beyond rambling about syariah law and a theocratic state, nobody wants to acknowledge that the Islamisation process that has radically altered this country post-1969 has happened during the watch of the so-called centrist coalitions of BN or Pakatan Harapan.

When Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim decided that the Islamic Development Department (Jakim) needed to play a bigger role in policy-making, for instance, non-Malay political operatives in the Madani government were silent as church mice.

Furthermore, it was Anwar, through his religious czar, who was pursuing the Federal Territories Mufti bill, which would have radically transformed the powers of the religious far right in this country.


Islamic Development Department


This is something that PAS dreamt of. This is something the deep Islamic state has been preparing for.

The bill was best defined by SIS Forum - “The Mufti bill, which grants unelected officials the power to legislate without transparency or due process, exemplifies the dangerous erosion of democratic principles and constitutional rights.

“Such laws risk undermining the fundamental freedoms of Malaysians, fostering a culture of control rather than empowerment, and silencing diverse perspectives crucial for a progressive society.”

This country has been run by Perikatan Nasional before, and it was a time when Malaysia went through so many prime ministers; it was difficult keeping track of who was in charge of the circus.

Also, as we can see, the only thing these Malay uber alles types love more than making alliances to defend race and religion is breaking up that alliance for perceived slights and infractions, which merely means that various potentates were not getting their due.

Non-Malays voting for Harapan, which Leong acknowledges is not the coalition that got the most Malay votes, means that everything Madani does in terms of policy and optics is to appeal to the Malay community, which is what PAS does already.


Selayang MP William Leong


Keep in mind that for decades, the non-Malays voted for BN and demonised the opposition using pragmatism as a rallying cry instead of institutional reform. And to be fair, for decades, the non-Malays prospered while their Malay/Muslim brethren were short-changed by the Malay uber alles party they voted for.

Umno collapse drives PN surge

Three years ago, former DAP MP Ong Kian Ming agreed with Umno man Khairy Jamaluddin that the Green Wave narrative was a “lazy shorthand”.

Ong wrote: “It diverts attention from the main reason for the increase in votes for PN: a disastrous collapse in support for Umno in all states in Peninsular Malaysia, except for Negeri Sembilan and Johor.

ADS


“It was this unhappiness with Umno and specifically, the leadership of Zahid, that enabled PN to benefit from the groundswell of dissatisfaction.”

What most politically correct observers do not want to publicly acknowledge is that if the dominant polity that voted for PN really wanted an alternative, they would have chosen PKR and Harapan.

After all, Harapan-controlled states were run more efficiently than BN states and were drawing local economic migrants from less developed states.

Now, of course, in Johor, Umno is in ascendancy, and with this comes all sorts of political opportunities which make anything the non-Malays do mean bupkis.


Umno members


There really is nothing stopping Umno, PAS, and Bersatu from joining forces or any kind of political alliances which shut out non-Malay power brokers. They have done this before and imploded spectacularly.

While Zahid may say that there will never be another pact with its sworn enemy, PAS, can any rational Malaysian take his word for it?

Folks got their knickers in a twist when PN candidate Goh Gaik Meng said the non-Malays cannot stop the Malay tsunami - “I actually want to tell the people of Selangor... the Chinese cannot stop this Malay tsunami. A so-called tsunami within the Malay community has been set off.

“As a minority ethnic group with only 20-30 percent (of the population) in this country, we cannot stop this so-called Malay tsunami.”


PAS strategy and Malay political unity

However, the reality is that the mainstream Malay political establishment, from the royal institution to a significant segment of the vox populi, wants some sort of Malay unity.

Do not for one second think that I am downplaying the threat of the Green Wave. PAS has very clear ideas about how to use democracy and legislation to suppress the non-Malay vote.

PAS will lead the effort to disenfranchise the non-Malay vote even more and perhaps make the non-Malay vote meaningless. This is the plan, and PAS has been very open about it.

In 2021, then-PAS central committee member Khairuddin Aman Razali said, “There are long-term (needs) that require us to win the next general election with a two-thirds majority.

“(Upon achieving this), the electoral boundaries need to be changed to benefit Muslims.

“We also need to increase the number of parliamentary seats in Malay-majority areas.”


Former minister Khairuddin Aman Razali


Keep in mind, two years ago, folks were going on about “coalition politics” as if it were the new normal. The reality is that there really wasn’t any real coalition give and take, but rather Madani rearing snakes in their tent while carrying out policy-making initiatives which put a smile on the visage of the Green Wave.

Have you noticed that, especially among PN supporters, there really is no central figure standing in opposition to Anwar? The theocratic state-in-waiting understands they have no need for prime ministers in the sense of someone leading the country. All they need is a figurehead.

The fact is that what Madani is doing is making it easier for PAS when it eventually takes over. We are not dealing with differing political ideologies here. What Muslim disunity has achieved is the suppression and dismantling of progressive ideas and personalities in the majority community.

The Green Wave is the existential threat facing rational Malaysians, but it is not simply about not voting for PAS, as the facts demonstrate. Non-Malays haven’t been able to stop the Green Wave, and PAS is merely a fait accompli.

What non-Malays need to do is to vote for Malaysians who are not too concerned about spooking the Malays.

ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTERS were on the streets in Indonesia this week AFTER Indonesia refused to give US jet bombers blanket permission to use Indonesian airspace in a future war on China


From the FB page of:


ANTI-GOVERNMENT PROTESTERS were on the streets in Indonesia this week. The rise of civil unrest was predicted by several sources, including journalist/ analyst Brian Berletic.
Why was trouble inevitable? The leadership of the world’s fourth most populous country has shown signs of independent thinking, as it struggles with economic pressures.
Indonesia recently refused to sign a promise to give US jet bombers blanket permission to use Indonesian airspace in a future war on China.
The Pentagon was not happy.
.
THE NED IS ACTIVE
Furthermore, President Prabowo Subianto last year criticized foreign NGOs, claiming to “promote democracy”, for interfering in the politics of sovereign countries and weaponizing human rights.
This was seen as a reference to the infamous US National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a CIA spin-off which has been active in creating street protests in Indonesia.
The NED has been thrown out of Venezuela, Egypt, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Russia and other places for financing, fomenting and training anti-government movements. The resultant civil unrest has often led to loss of life and property, sometimes on a large scale.
The rise of independent thinking in Jakarta means (from the US point of view) that Indonesia may need a little “people power” push to usher in alternative leaders. The appearance of civil unrest is always the first step in the regime change system.
.
LIST OF GRIEVANCES
As usual, the protests are said to be based on genuine grievances. The illegal US-Israel attack on Iran caused oil import prices to soar. The Jakarta government maintained some subsidies on fuel to shield citizens and runs a school meal program to ensure children don’t go hungry, but both have been targeted by critics.
The local currency has fallen against the dollar, making it harder for Indonesians to travel abroad—but it has lifted the value of remittances family members overseas send home.
Still, all this is par for the course. US agitators work quietly to build civil unrest on top of local grievances. Civic society in the country is riddled with US infiltrators. Also, US agents are discreetly financing outlets in Indonesia’s media—using the same “democracy and freedom” mantras they used in Hong Kong and scores of other places.
.
WEAPONIZING HUMAN RIGHTS
Indonesian President Prabowo has been trying to keep the US appeased (he donated to Donald Trump’s absurd “Board of Peace” for Gaza) but has also tried to maintain the country’s independence from foreign troublemakers.
“We must not be manipulated by any country,” he said on Pancasila Day, last year.
In response, NED, the CIA and related outfits have apparently stepped-up operations. NED is advertising for staff for operations in East Asia.
.
HIT PIECE
Brian Berletic, Angelo Guiliano and the present writer were targeted in a hit piece three weeks ago. Jakarta-based Tempo accused us of being Russian or Chinese agents.
Their evidence was that we had falsely indicated that western political groups, like the NED and Internews, were active in the country.
But the Tempo report was funded by a western political group: Internews! The very existence of their report proved we were telling the truth.
Yet our warnings need to be louder. How to get the truth about US interference more widely known?
It’s difficult. Narrative creation is the US’s super-power. It’s clear that that a significant portion of Indonesian media, like Tempo, is serving the US, not Indonesia.
International journalists are no help. Mainstream media such as the BBC and Reuters routinely maintain secret news blackouts on references to western political interference operations, even if their presence is blatant.
.
ASIANS NEED TO WISE UP
So Asians have to wise up and fix their own problems.
“Nations need to secure their information space,” Berletic said on X yesterday. “Stop allowing US-based social media platforms and their algorithms to determine what YOUR people see, hear, and ultimately THINK.”
In the long run, the US wants Indonesia’s government to be allied to them or controlled by Washington—as are many places, including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Taiwan.
The US is busy in Asia, “politically capturing Asian states along China's periphery - Indonesia being one of them,” Berletic said.




Stepson of Norway’s crown prince jailed for four years in rape case



Stepson of Norway’s crown prince jailed for four years in rape case

Oslo court sentences Marius Borg Hoiby, 29, after convicting him of rape, domestic violence and drug offences.

An Oslo district court has sentenced Marius Borg Hoiby, the stepson of Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon, to four years in prison for rape and other crimes.

Hoiby, 29, became part of the royal family when his mother, Mette-Marit, married Haakon in 2001.

The court convicted Hoiby of two counts of rape as well as domestic violence against his former partner Nora Haukland and narcotics offences. He was acquitted on two separate rape counts with judges finding insufficient proof that the encounters were nonconsensual. One of the rapes he was convicted of took place in the basement of the crown prince’s official Skaugum residence.

While denying the rape charges, Hoiby had pleaded guilty to domestic abuse and transporting 3.5kg (7.7lb) of marijuana in 2020.

The seven-week trial captivated Norway, laying bare Hoiby’s struggles with drug addiction, self-recorded footage of intimate encounters and a trove of more than 800 electronic messages submitted as evidence.

Hoiby, who has been in custody since February 1, did not attend the reading of the verdict in person, citing undisclosed medical reasons. Local media reported he followed proceedings via a secure videolink from Oslo Prison, where he remains held.

During the trial, Hoiby spoke about growing up adjacent to the throne without an official title. “I’m mostly known as my mother’s son, not anything else,” he told the court. “So I’ve had an extreme need for recognition my whole life, and that manifested itself in a lot of sex, a lot of drugs and a lot of alcohol.”

Haakon distanced the monarchy from the case, telling reporters that Hoiby is not a member of the Royal House and faces the same legal accountability as any Norwegian citizen. “He is a citizen of Norway and, as such, has the same responsibilities as everyone else,” Haakon said.
