Things that I said in political gathering that lead them to kick me out from the meeting – part 1
Wood – 3rd February 2010 / 18th Safar 1431
Meeting 1
This is not a meeting, it is just a gathering at a local surau where normally only one political party members dominate the attendees list.
They were talking about how people accused Nik Aziz for corruption when he accepted the RM60k offer to go for haj. They said it was wrong for people to do so.
I respect this Nik Aziz a lot, but I need to be fair in my judgement and opinion. So I ask them.
Me :Isn’t it clearly stated in our religion that a leader cannot accept any offering from anybody especially when it involves large or high value, fearing that people will interpret it wrongly?
Them : But this is for haj, and he is an ulama. So it is normal for people to sponsor an ulama for haj and umrah.
Me :Yeah you are right there? But where is the line of separation in this case?
Them : What separation?
Me :A lines that separate him being an ulama and him being a Menteri Besar? Can you tell me?
I walked away from them hoping that common sense will prevail.
Meeting 2
This is a meeting organized by local political party where they invite the Datuk Ketua Polis to brief the people on police roles, followed by Q & A from the people. Happen after the much talked March 8th tsunami.
After the Datuk finished his briefing and so call speech I stood up and ask this.
“I think you have a very good plan and strategy to be implemented for this year. However, I think we have heard enough of what you plan to do for so many years since there is no much different from last year, the year before last year, before that and so on. I think you got the idea.
Instead, please tell us what you have done last year? How far off is it from what you had planned? Why you didn’t do what you plan? What would be the impact? Are you wasting our tax money? What is your plan to do better? Why are you and your people here in the first place?
Please tell us. We really want to know. “
Soon after, some guys guide me to the nearest door. They look pissed.
Meeting 3
This is a meeting organized by local political party. The Youth Chief was echoing what Mahathir said about Anwar being the advisor for Selangor for RM1.00. Mahathir said “You get what you paid for”. The Youth Chief encourages us to propagate it to the “people”.
I ask him this question.
“What if people ask this?
1. So we paid RM16 bil for special navy ship, we got back RM16 bil piece of shit is it?
2. So we paid RM12 bil for PKFZ, and we got back RM12 bil piece of shit is it?
3. So we paid RM billions and millions for other WHITE ELEPHANT project and we got another billions piece of WHITE ELEPHANT SHIT is it?
What would be our answer?”
Before the RELA can come to me, I indicate to them “I know where the door is, thank you”.
Meeting 4
This is a meeting organized by the defeated ruling party. The youth chief was talking and talking. He talked about UMNO fight for independence, UMNO struggle to this and that, UMNO never ending love for this and that. Each time he pause most of the people will stand up and yell “Allahu akhbar!! Hidup XXXXXXXX”.
I stop him and ask this question
Me
o you know what PKMB is?
Dato’ :What?
Me : I asked you just now. Do you know what PKMB is?
Dato’ : Huh….Pertubuhan Komunis Malaya Bersatu.
Me :Sigh..PKMB is Pertubuhan Kebangsaan Melayu Bersatu, another name for UMNO but in Malay. If you don’t even know what PKMB is. What make you think you know UMNO? And for your information, we don’t call it Pertubuhan Komunis Malaya Bersatu. We call it PARTI KOMUNIS MALAYA. Next time, before you want to talk, read first.
This time, I just walked to the nearest exit.
