MCA really should look in mirror over hudud
YOURSAY 'If MCA wants to regain its dignity, stand up to Umno.'
Awkward moment at S'gor MCA protest
Fateh:
It was so appropriate to gift a mirror to those MCA fellows. They have been with the BN since independence, and their accomplishments are dwindling away. Otherwise, they would not have lost so badly in the last two elections.
If MCA wants to regain their shine and dignity, for goodness sake stand up to Umno.
Hello : These Selangor MCA protesters are nothing but clowns and jesters. Its good that DAP presented them with a mirror signifying that they ought to have a good look at themselves before telling others of their faults.
And what are their ministers still doing? They voted for the enhanced Sedition Act, Pota, CPC etc. These are nothing but a bunch of brigands that will sell their mothers down the river, like they are doing now selling the people's democracy for self-interest.
KMD_1371466233 : MCA, don't you have better work to do? You are always talking about others, why don't you go and stop the hudud bill and show your power?
Urkidding: This is the best gift for MCA to mirror themselves. MCA should place this gift at their Jalan Ampang headquarters to keep reminding them what they have done so far.
ConstitutionIsSupreme: I am still waiting for MCA Youth's chairperson to organise the 'surround the Parliament' plan to protest hudud. But will he dare to proceed as he had announced earlier?
Anonymous #13957745: Mirror, mirror on the wall, whose the most idiotic of them all? The Monkey Comedians Agency. A true reflection on themselves. Well done DAP, you are ingeniously creative and talented.
The Analyser: Although it's already too late for DAP as they have just burned all their bridges, Malaysia is desperately in need of some maturity and statesmanship from its politicians.
YF: It's good to see MCA finally having to kowtow to DAP to ask for help to resolve what they cannot do with Umno.
It's time MCA joined DAP or PKR. BN parties beside Umno are nothing but a mere puppet for Umno.
Anonymous #37634848: MCA should protest in front of Umno HQ.
Minister: Hudud must comply with constitution
Bamboo: Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Jamil Khir Baharom is both the initiator and inhibitor of hudud. PAS is trapped.
SusahKes: PAS is stuck. This is the 21st Century and yet PAS has demonstrated the utmost lack of wisdom on the matter. More than anyone, PAS and its president Abdul Hadi Awang will now be remembered as those who let down Malaysians the most.
Anonymous_1419577444: Jamil Khir has just effectively done a Brutus on Hadi and his PAS sidekicks who so gullibly believe Umno will support them.
Anonymous_40f4: Now this pretender starts his U-turn. The silly Hadi will get egg on his face from Umno Baru and its chief, Prime Minster Najib Razak.
The Analyser: Here comes the final act in The Great Hudud Drama that's had the whole country consumed for the past three weeks, to the exclusion of just about everything else of real importance.
Fair Play: Surely the minister's statement must be an anti-climax to this long running soap drama that was akin to a fox running endlessly in a circle chasing its own tail.
Pakatan to work as a team in Permatang Pauh
Tailek: DAP Youth, please don't be so childish and politically immature. There are no friends or foes in politics, only alliances. Look at the bigger picture, which is to win Permatang Pauh and eventually Putrajaya.
The Analyser: Are these petty little would be politicians so ignorant of the facts surrounding all three parties of a dysfunctional coalition that they are prepared to insult the intelligence of Malaysians by standing a candidate in Permatang Pauh?
Is their greed for power so overwhelming that it overcomes all the messages they are getting from voters and their own common sense and self-respect?
It really doesn't matter who stands under the Pakatan banner. It's what they stand for and at the moment Pakatan stands for failure and hypocrisy, and worst of all betrayal.
Pisasu 7: A cursory look at the upcoming UK polls will give an example how Pakatan could function.
Treat PAS like the Liberal Democrats party in the current British Parliament. PKR and DAP can gang up and if PAS wants to toe the line that's fine, if not like on the hudud issue, let them shoot themselves in the foot.
The Liberal Democrats are screwing themselves very much like PAS is doing now.
The Voice of the Wilderness: Anwar's daughter Nurul Nuha Anwar would be a welcomed PKR candidate for Permatang Pauh, if only PKR president Wan Azizah Wan Ismail is willing to step aside for her daughter.
It does not matter, the mother or the daughter, the support from Pakatan's true believers will not be in doubt - perhaps even strengthened further by newcomers of the anti-establishment.
