Malaysia's most powerful woman


Two women fill me with incredible admiration. They are the very picture of dignity like a lotus standing out of muddy waters, tranquillity like the eye in a raging storm, and calm courage amidst a barbaric horde.

There’s none of the Jean d’Arc-like martyr in them and none also of the Mother Teresa piousness. The young would describe each of them as cool, but to me, they're most importantly down to earth people.

I am talking about Aung San Suu Kyi and yes, our very own Ambiga Sreenevasan. Both are their respective nation’s patriots, not the pariah pompous pseudo type claimed by Perkasa or that alluded to by our world-famous Defence Minister (who first attempted, unsuccessfully wakakaka, to politically stab Dr Mahathir in the back and then like a cornered rat, abandoned the ship named KD Anwar Ibrahim when the going got tough.


I congratulate the Myanmareans for their fortune in having a true patriot like Aung San Suu Kyi, and I have no doubt many Malaysians feel likewise, fortunate to have a new light in Ambiga in these troubled times.


Many have urged her to stand for the coming general elections which I have no doubt will sweep her into Parliament, but I urge her not to. We need her to be the politically neutral she is, to provide balanced and unselfish advice and leadership to us. If she has to enter into active politics then I urge her to stand as an Independent.

The Malaysian political landscape is too acidic, acrimonious and acerbic, with the principal personalities in a Bush-like state of ‘either or’, worsened by individualistic selfish interests that pay little heed to the rakyat’s benefits.

Today I would not be exaggerating to state that Ambiga Sreenevasan is the most powerful and popular woman in Malaysia. By powerful I mean her potential to significantly influence politics. Yes, she may not be popular to 100% of Malaysians, and really who is, but I doubt there is any other female, or even male, who can match her standing in the eyes of the Malaysian public.


Take for example, the UMNO moron who threatened her, no doubt verbally only, but which consequences might have turned the Indians away from BN. This potential outcome has been no better illustrated than by the immediate flurry of condemnations against UMNO MP Mohamad Aziz by the normally-obsequious UMNO-lapdog MIC.

Najib has no doubt torn off more of what is left of his sparse hair at the likely fallout from the very very (politically) expensive stupidity of Mohamed Aziz, that he (Najib) might as well be tonsured.


But what is Ambiga Sreenevasan’s message such that it sends UMNO quaking?

Clean and fair elections.

And what does this message imply in its truest meaning?

Ambiga has called for an election that is without cheating, dodgyness, institutionalized ‘hedging’, threats and intimidation or deliberate marginalization or disenfranchisement, one where each and every eligible citizen is entitled to one vote each.


But it means more than that.

‘Clean and fair’ elections also means no frogological innovations, no money politics, and no covert pacts a la 'The Illuminati’ to change the outcome of the official results of an election to the astonishment and against the choice of the voters.

dead political frogs

There are politicians who ride on the hem of her sari wakakaka, while there are politicians who hate her with a vengeance. But she must disown those who are riding on her popularity but do not subscribe in the least to her message of a truly ‘clean and fair’ elections.

36 comments:

  1. Ambiga has scrupulously kept to her insistence that Bersih - 2.0 and 3.0 is non-partisan.

    However, if you look carefully at major Bersih public announcements and press conferences, Pakatan Rakyat -PKR, PAS, DAP representatives, if not leaders, are alway on board. Hey, many times Anwar Ibrahim was invited to Bersih conferences. Najib would be welcome too, if he weren't so busy trying to demonise Bersih.

    She has made clear that Bersih is not beholden to any political party, but it wouldn't make any sense for Bersih to dissociate itself from coordinating with PAS, PKR or DAP.

    Ambiga understands very well the realpolitik that Bersih's success depends at least in part on Heavy lifting organisation work from Pakatan Rakyat parties.

  2. They say that there three Malaysian heroes/heroine in history, namely :Hang Tuah, Hang Jebat and Hang Ambiga?

  3. Like your description of the political scene here as "The Malaysian political landscape is too acidic, acrimonious and acerbic ..."

    That's 3 A's viz acidic, acrimonious and acerbic. How about awarding it one more A: asinine?

  4. Actually, my bit of survey with the sort of ordinary folks who form the majority of voters.

    The response to questions about Ambiga is more like "Ambiga who?"

    In fact, if the authorities had not set out to single her out for attack, she would have remained an obscure figure.

    Sorry , She is really NOT influential apart from political junkies and the sort of idealists who braved FRU gas in Bersih 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0

  5. Let me make a prediction. As far as can be remembered, in all the previous elections, and without any doubt, in the coming one, too, all those bankrupt-of-ideas UMNO politicians will without fail trot out their favourite threat, namely, May 13.

    This veiled threat is, of course, directed at the Nons, especially the Chingkies. The subtext being: Vote BN. Or else you're gonna be sorry!

    They are like the despicable pimps in a whorehouse threatening the girls, whom they have kidnapped to work as sex slaves, to work harder.

  6. In this world, there are 3 groups of people -

    Those who make things happen,

    Those who allow things to happen,

    & Those who ask - what happened ?

    And guess who are these people in the last group category ? Haha, you guessed right - those who asked - "who's Ambiga?"

    And UMNO intends to keep them in the dark as long as possible. UMNO has rightly reckoned that to run a country this size, all you need are a few hundred mini napoleons and a few thousand beholden bodoh sombong slaves, all properly BTN-ised. And that's why colleges and unis like mara and UiTM are set up to groom these troopers, with an all-english syllabus but of course the Rest Of The Students in the country are urged to attend a 1-School with Bahasa Melayu as the main language of instruction, bwahaha.

    If UMNO has its way, 99% of the population will forever be asking -" What happened ?"....bwahahahaha. Love this country and its politicians who still operate this country like the wild wild west.

  7. Better Marina than Ambiga. At least she's what you see is what you get.
    Ambiga is a she-devil dressed in angel clothings.
    She has an agenda of her own. She is using that Anwar fella. And that stupid man thought Ambiga is for him. Hahaha.
    I agree absolutely with Tanah Melayu. Achi is just an obscure figure.
    The average Malay and Indians dont care two hoots about Bersih series 1, 2 or 3.
    But that butt showing and the faux pas by the MP who wanted her hanged, suddenly turned her into a heroine Malayali.
    Out comes Palanivel and other Indian leaders. Not so much for her but to portray their fight for Indians. To garner some votes.
    Ambiga brought up the racism in us. That was her aim.
    She enjoys being feted and toasted overseas. But she's sad that Malaysians regard us as just another frustrated has-been lawyer.
    Oh how she loves it when Din Merican and his kind dubbed her as Aung San Suu Kyi.
    The EC has blown her cover. EC boss said none of the Bersih demonstrators including Aci and Mat leather king bothered to check the electoral roll now on display.
    He said the display is ending but there were no objections to the names displayed.
    Hahaha, so much for clean and fair elections.
    Like to see Achi contest the GE and lose.
    And Suu Kyi, used to admire her like everyone in the world.
    But yet to see her protesting against the genocide going on in her country.
    She's now drunk in the adulation given her by the western nations.
    It all ultimately comes to self-glory, be it Achi or Suu Kyi.

  8. You can lay all the blame on 'frogology' on the doorsteps of Barisan Najis.

    They can easily pass a law to ban it but they wont.

    They say its not constituitional.

    I say pass a constituitional amendment then. Lets see then if Pakatan supports or not.

    Right now, Barisan Najis is the one that doesnt want to ban it.

    Why?

    Its Najis Razak insurance policy for PRU 13.

    ktemoc can yelp all he want about DSAI and what he did or did not do but bottomline is so far for DSAI its all talk, the ACTUAL act of frogology was done by Barisan Najis in Perak.

    You are not guilty just by talking up something. You are guilty if you do actually ACT IT OUT!

    Pls try and understand the difference!

  20. I am afraid I have to say this. We have a very sick person here, as can be seen from his various vile comments under various nicks such as freedom fighter, holy man, joker, anak malaysia, mad this and that, etc, or even under impersonations of other visitors. He has also gone to the delusional extent of having his various nicks talk to or support each other.

    However, his children have written to me again requesting that I tolerate or just ignore him as the old man is not well (in the head). They in fact confess to me they dread his vile, crude and obscene behaviour especially when they are with relatives, neighbours or friends. He has embarrassed them on numerous occasions with his vulgarities and obscene jokes. They shun him because of this.

    Unfortunately, for the old man (and for us), his family's avoidance of him has turned him into a lonely bitter and frustrated man who is crazy for respect, a sad state worsened by some personal physical (feeble flaccid) "disability". Thus he desperately desires and imagines he has an important role to play, by presenting himself as a "defender" of various blogs (Susan Loone's and mine being just two examples) or even as a "defender" of Anwar Ibrahim, his latest target. At one stage he even listed his objective as providing me with 100 comments on every of my posts (99 of which would consist of his terrible comments which would be totally unrelated to the subject of tho post, his fave being tho size of Buttercup's bra "cup").

    When he is again shunned by anyone of us, and can anyone blame us when you see how vulgar and uncivilised he behaves by his vile (and sometimes racist) comments, he goes crazy and would vomit more extreme forms of filthy, obscene, vile comments against the blogger. For example, he has cursed my entire family, including my young nephews and nieces in their sub-teen years, to death. He even wants to have sex with my dead mum - sheeesh! Yet he claims to be a Buddhist receiving religious teachings from a personal Lama monk.

    I feel sorry for him yet I can't give way to his filth here. Sorry lah.

  21. KT, we all know there's a real sicko here who unfortunately refused to get offline from this blog, with every insane intention of continuing his mad game despite all sorts of condemnation from readers here and from yourself too.

    Why not simply ban him ? Habis cerita macam ini lah. Nobody would fault you, in fact we will all thank you profusely for we too would be saved from this irritating pain in the ass.

    Looking forward to prompt action from you, KT :)

  25. An ill wind blows and it looks like you have somehow attracted the attentions of someone who, from his postings, shows clear signs of a severe personality disorder.

    He haunts your blog every day and stalks you with foul language and curses.

    Anyway, as the saying goes - When life gives you a lemon, make lemonade. So, as you seem to enjoy writing you can take advantage of Mr Psycho and use his antics to inspire you to write a novel.

    Let me give you an idea (I could have run with it myself hehehe, but being bone lazy and perhaps lacking the talent I'll pass the opportunity on to you). ;)

    Taking inspiration from Thomas Harris and his series of books on Dr Hannibal Lecter, you, too, can write a book about a crazed, serial killer who stalks the Internet and picks his victims from there. Who knows, you just might become a rich and famous author! ;-)

  27. KT is supporting Ambiga and the balls are not happy.
    He does not support Anwar to be PM . they are not happy too.
    Why?

  28. The monster doesn't care about Ambiga, Anwar, Lim KS, etc. He's just a childish ... I mean ... senile angry and frustrated old man who is being destructive because of his bitterness, caused by his children shunning him. But he fails to recognize they shun him because they are embarrassed by his vile behaviour

  29. Dear KTemoc,

    I feel moved to write to apologise on behalf of my father (Mr.Goh) for the way he vandalises your blog with his impolite language and uncouth conduct.

    We his children, too, have suffered in loving patience his unruly and disruptive behaviour which has often brought us acute embarrassment in public.

    I don't quite recall his being like this in his younger days. It seems that it's only in recent years that he began to display odd and generally antisocial attitude. I would think that this is very possibly the result of aging and the deleterious effects it brings.

    I hope that you will be gracious enough to pardon his (I would say inexcusable) behaviour out of consideration for his advanced age.

    I believe the best way to deal with him is for you and your readers to completely ignore his comments, that is to say do not respond to him in any manner. His behaving like that is just a form of attention-seeking, and when he finds that his comments no longer elicit any response whatsoever from anyone he would soon tire of the game and drift away.

    Thank you for reading my message, and for being so patient with my dad.

    With best wishes.

  33. Dear Mr S Goh

    I appreciate your family's huge problem. I didn't rise to Monst ... eh I mean ... your father's demand that I publish all the emails I've been receiving from your family - as the Chinese saying goes, "when chopping wood, don't chop the underlying chopping block as well".

    But I would counsel against allowing him one of his two TV pleasures, that of pornography as (i) there are children in your house and (ii) it focuses his frustration on his ... (you know what I want to say).

    It's okay to let him watch tennis and fantasize about Maria Sharapova - no harm there.

    Perhaps your family may wish to consider sedatives for him when he is agitated (eg. when I delete his comments).

    Best regards.
