Get Rid of KGN Hin Bus from Penang!

Penang is in dire need to have an efficient public transport system. The idea mooted by the Penang State Government to introduce Water Taxis like those in Sydney must be lauded. As much as we need more buses plying our roads regularly, I can't help but feel disgusted by the presence of KGN Hin Bus which is plying the the Tourist Route of Georgetown - Tanjong Bungah - Batu Ferringi. The buses used by KGN HIN are actually buses that are dumped from other States. These buses are poorly maintained.

KGN Hin buses also pack passengers like sardines and I've even seen people dangling from a speeding KGN Hin bus just like you would see in Jakarta or Dhaka, Bangladesh. Very often you will find KGN Hin buses breaking down. Most of these buses are old and slow and are not suitable to travel the hilly and winding road to Batu Ferringi. Motorists have to frustratingly put up with these slow moving buses less they want to take the risk of overtaking these buses on a winding road such as Batu Ferringi. The sight of these buses are unsightly and the drivers are reckless and rude to passengers. These KGN Hin Buses also emit a lot of smoke. By right the the relevant authourities such as JPJ, Puspakom ought to pull KGN Hin Buses off the road. However I know why no action has been taken thus far. The reason for this is because KGN HIN is owned by an Umno linked Company. Need I say more?

Whatever the case, KGN Hin is an embarrassment to Penang as it gives a bad impression to foreigners visiting Penang. In fact, a child of a tourist from England thought that KGN Hin Buses were actually prison buses!

Ong vs Chua: MCA will lose out

The Chinese language mainstream and alternative media have been saturated lately with speculations that MCA is set for another one of those gargantuan party crisis that could mean disaster for this old premier party in Malaysia.

Undercurrents of factional strife have been festering beneath the surface since the newly minted MCA President Ong Tee Keat has failed to appoint his new deputy Dr Chua Soi Lek to any cabinet position. Ong had mumbled in the past about how political leaders needing high personal moral standards, making veiled reference to Chua’s sex video scandal.

Just last week, all ten MCA ministers and deputy ministers had come out with a collective statement expressing their support for the political leadership of Tee Keat. It is an unprecedented move that raised the question: why now?

Shortly thereafter, Ong himself made the stunning revelation that there are forces inside and outside the MCA to subvert the party and force him from his leadership position.

Internal dissenting forces

He alleged that these individuals and groups with vested interest in the PKFZ issue had been spreading rumours by word of mouth and SMS in an illicit campaign of character assassination. According to him, there were even threats from the underworld against his personal safety.

This is immediately mocked by Chua as Ong’s attempt at creating a heroic image for himself. He wondered whether a Cabinet minister can be so easily intimidated by the underworld, and why Ong had not reported to the police to seek protection of the state.

Meanwhile, the media is speculating that internal dissenting forces are agitating for a special MCA delegates convention aimed at removing Ong from office as MCA president and transport minister. This has raised the spectre of extremely acrimonious and self-destructive struggle for power between warring factions that had weakened the party in the past.

The fuse for the current eruption of open verbal scuffle between the two titanic figures of the MCA is probably the re-surfacing of Chua’s sex video. Unlike a year ago when the video fist surfaced, Chua seems determined to fight it out all the way.

The MCA disciplinary committee had already issued a show-cause letter on the video issue, and August 4 has been fixed as the hearing date.

Rumours rule the day

Chua’s supporters could have seen the show cause letter as just another conspiracy by Ong to remove Chua from office by using an old issue, though it has been said that Ong knew nothing about the letter issued by the disciplinary committee. Rumours rule the day these days, and it is hard to know what’s what!

I have been vaguely interested in some rounds of MCA crisis through three decades. The fiercest one was probably the fight between Tan Koon Swan and Dr Neo Yee Pan, involving many special MCA delegates’ conventions. It was very ugly to watch even from outside. They went against each other like mortal enemies.

Tan won in that tussle but had to go to jail in Singapore, paving the way for Dr Ling Liong Sik to ascend to the MCA throne for a long period of time.

Personally, I dislike the MCA as a political party intensely. But when Ong Tee Keat first entered Parliament as a young man in the mid 80s, I had thought well of him, despite our occasional scuffle in the House when he was Deputy Speaker. He was an engineer by training, but he was reputed to be a writer of Chinese poems and well liked by the Chinese intellegentia and Chinese journalists.

Chua Soi Lek came to the scene after my time. By all indications, he must have enjoyed widespread grassroots support, when he could be elected as deputy president of MCA, even after he was tainted by the sex video scandal.

It is unwise for them to lock horns at a time when the nation’s heartbeat is gripped with anxieties over the death of Teoh Beng Hock and the PKFZ scandal.

The MCA has lost a huge chuck of its electoral territory after the March 8 general election last year. You would expect them to rethink and regroup all their splintered forces after the debacle to work towards a collective come-back. Even Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak is making a visible attempt to regain the middle ground lost by the BN en masse in that election.

Chua has nothing to lose

Already, Chua Jui Meng - a former MCA leading figure - had left to join the PKR. Whether he would turn out to be toxic asset is left to be seen, but he must have lingering influence in Johore. Pakatan Rakyat needs badly that kind of connection in Johore, which has always remained as a BN fortress in many general elections.

That may explain why Soi Lek is so resolved to take the fight to Ong this time around openly. Earlier, there had been rumours that he too might join PR one day. Without any ministerial position and any real power inside the party, while being marginalised at every move, he had nothing to lose. If he loses in the current crisis, he can always join PR, taking more chunks of MCA members and supporters in Johore with him.

Unfortunately, Chinese politics is often more about personalities than about policies and ideologies. The same applies to other Chinese based politics such as Gerakan, DAP, and SUPP in Sarawak.

I doubt if we have seen the last of the dramas of this MCA internal fight. If the current crisis escalates, we may just be witnessing the beginning of the end for the MCA!

Save Christian Mission Schools From Umno's Little Mullahs - Malaysiakini

It was reported that Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak will become PM at a difficult time when the economy is not at its best. He will have to shoulder a lot of expectations from the people. This is more so, when we have seen how religious bigotry and Malay chauvinism rearing it's ugly head. Read here:

We have read from malaysiakini how the Little Mullahs are against a non Malay Malaysians from being appointed as the GM of PKNS. We have also already seen what has happened to the Anglican, Methodist and other Catholic Mission Schools.

The fact that these Mission schools have been around has always been a 'duri dalam daging' (thorn in the flesh) for these zealots who have forgotten the contribution of the Christian Mission Schools. There have been cases of Malay teachers asking not to be transferred to schools like SXI all because they deemed it as a Christian School.

Many of these teachers, who for the record can't speak English or refuse to speak English come from Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu. Just look at schools like St. Georges in Penang, Penang Free School and Convent Pulau Tikus (picture above right) in Penang and you will be able to tell what fate awaits SXI when Bro. Paul Ho leaves.

The way the Little Mullah operated Education Department works is that it will appoint a non Muslim to head the school once the Christian Head retires as in the case of SXI and all the other Christian Schools. Normally this non Muslim Principal would be nearing retirement age.

Once this Principal retires, the next Principal will be a Little Mullah Principal whose first task in Talibanization is to 'exorcise' the School of any elements of Christianity. This will include the getting rid of all things considered 'Syirik'. This will include changing the School emblem. Removing all crucifixes and Statues. Read more about it here:

Filial Piety: the Most Important Virtue in Chinese Culture

Being brought up in a conservative Chinese family in Ipoh, the idea of Filial Piety and other virtues may seem rather absurd to the Gen X people. But according to Chinese tradition Filial Piety is the most important virtue to be cherished through out the span of one’s parents’ lifetime.

According to the Chinese tradition being a filial son is the uppermost duty of any Chinese son. Being a filial son means complete obedience to your parents, taking all possible cares of them, meeting their demands at any cost and not harming their feelings at any point of time. However it has been debated that in the times of Valentine’s Day culture how far can a son agree to all characteristics of filial piety.

Filial Piety had its origin in Confucius. Xiao was a very important doctrine with Confucius. It means blind loyalty to one’s own parents. But ren and yi were even more important norms with Confucius. Xiao is merely the show of ren and yi, which formulate the interrelationship of the parents and the children. The most important text on Filial Piety is “Xiao Jing” or the “Book of Filial Piety”.

According to Chinese tradition Filial Piety has its other features too. After the death of the parents the eldest child is required to perform all the rituals. One basic thing about filial piety is that the child has to ensure that the family line is continued. If the marriage turns out to a barren one the son can take another wife or adopt a child.

Stories about Filial Piety abound in Chinese tradition and culture. The most fascinating story collection of this sort is The Twenty Four Examples of Filial Piety compiled and edited by Kuo Chu-ching in Yuan Dynasty.

MIC MUST EXPLAIN ABOUT NUDE PHOTO FIASCO - malaysiakini

It was reported by .malaysiakini, that it was time to engage with Hindraf. However this would be impossible with MIC wanting to be in the picture and putting its nose where it doesn't belong. The MIC had better come up with a good explaination instead, regarding the the issue surrounding its Youth Member Dr. Punithan Shan. As promised I had given Dr. Punithan Shan a fair chance to explain himself and clear his name with regards to the Friendster sex fiasco involving a Japanese teenager by the name of Akiko. Unfortunately, Dr. Punithan chose to attack me with his rhetoric and sarcasm. Punithan has since removed Akiko's photo from his Friendster. However, I've managed to get a copy of his Friendster Page with Akiko's photo in it below just before it was removed by Dr. Punithan, What is sickening here is that there are so-called 'Followers' of Punithan who agrees with what he is doing. An example of such sickening comment was found in Dr.Punithan's COFFEE WITH PUNITHAN BLOG comment section which I have reproduced below:

I've been avid follower of your blog in recent times. I've read the transcripts and I'd say its just a storm in a tea cup. Instead of hitting them with sarcasm I hope you could take some positives from this episode. People will only resort to this sort of cheap behavior if they are really desperate to embarrass you, and are unable to find fault in your work or your thoughts, that they have to invade your privacy to put you down. Therefore, ignore these shallow-minded people and keep up the good work! You have done nothing wrong to the society that they deserve to hate you. Continue highlighting the current issues about the country and the people whilst your adversaries concentrate on trivial and childish issues. These people are hypocrites, and like you rightfully said, it is not for us to judge them on their wrongdoings. All we can do is have some humility and the heart to forgive them.

Storm in a teacup. I think what a man and a woman do with each other in the private is his own business. Why should double standards be applied to anybody - even a politician? If the majority of Malaysian men are having a good time with their women partner, then it's really not for us to care. Even politicians are human beings.However, if he is cheating on his wife or engaging in the services of a prostitute, then it is another matter. It speaks volumes on his lack of principles. In this case, I am not sure if this politician in question is married.

I would have expected you to give a clarification on this matter to clear your name. Anyway, I had promised to publish in full any clarification in full to help you clear your name. When I published the Article, never did I insinuate nor accuse you of anything. However, by responding with such immature sarcasm, which to me is unbecoming of a Doctor, you Punithan Shan, have just made this allegation against you more believable. By the way, your standard of written English doesn't reflect your profession.Cheers and Happy Diwali!

Punithan If you gentleman you tell truth and dont deny. What you do is your business. But dont lie because you are doctor. You are not holy man, so dont talk about God. I worry about your ethic of being doctor. I have seen your picture in Akiko Friendster and Akiko picture in your Friendster. Please explain.

Dey Punithan! You think you are so smart by removing Akiko's picture from your Friendster profile in order to cover your tracks. But guess what, your chunni faced picture is still in Akiko's Friendster for the world to see. Try explaining that. No doubt in whatever that was said about you in Lazarus posting. You are nothing but filt. No mother must allow you to marry her daughter. Anjedi karan!

MIC YOUTH IN NUDE PHOTO SCANDAL - malaysiakini

I have been sent information about a Youth member of the Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) by what I presume to be a lady who may be a Friendster pal of either Dr. Punithan Shan (left) or Miss Akiko (right). After reading the links that was sent to me on conditions of anonimity, I did my own check to verify this very serious allegation against a Youth member of the MIC who has just graduated as a Doctor. What I discovered was very shocking indeed. It is strange to read this on the eve of Deepavali. I was reading about Deepavali in the following link http://www.malaysiakini.com/letters/91891

I've decided to give the alledge links of the Friendster correspondence between Punithan Shan and Akiko below. I've also reproduced part of the transcript of the Friendster correspondence between Punithan and Akiko who is an 18 year old University freshman.

DISCLAIMER: THIS BLOGGER IS NOT MAKING ANY INSINUATIONS OR ACCUSATIONS AGAINST ANYONE. I LEAVE IT TO YOU TO MAKE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENTS. THE ONLY REASON I'VE DECIDED TO PUBLISH THIS IS BECAUSE I FEEL IT IS OF PUBLIC IMPORTANCE. I WILL PUBLISH IN FULL ANY CLARIFICATIONS EITHER BY DR. PUNITHAN OR ANYONE ELSE IN FULL. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED AND TRUTH MUST PREVAIL.

The following is a transcript in Friendster messages between MIC Youth Dr. Punithan Shan and Miss Akiko. It shows that this Punithan is a fraud, a pervert and not a gentleman to break this girl's heart. As a woman, I want this guy to be exposed to all. He must not be allowed to take advantage of young girls again. Girls beware of him.Please post this in your blog Mr. Lazarus.

Be fair to Soi Lek - Serdang MP Teo Nie Ching

Serdang parliamentarian Teo Nie Ching (pic above) does not see the morality issue as a big deal.“I think it’s more important to gauge the level of confidence people has in a leader with tainted past. She was commenting on Chua Soi Lek's wining of the MCA Vice Presidents post. If they are confident and genuinely feel that the leader concerned is a good and capable person, the morality issue will not be that relevant.“Whatever it is, it all depends whether he (Dr Chua) has truly repented over his mistakes.

If he has genuinely repented, he deserves another chance because everyone makes mistakes,” said Nie Ching, who at 27 is Malaysia’s youngest MP.She also said that Chua was a good health minister before he relinquished all his public positions (in early January this year) following the sex scandal.

“It is unfair if we continue to judge him on his past mistakes,” Nie Ching said.When told that it would be impossible for western leaders involved in sex scandals to make a comeback like the case of President Clinton who was impeached, Nie Ching replied, “That’s the west. Our priorities are different.” You can read more here:
