Squattergate!

What's your colour?

Much has happened since the fateful day when Anwar trounced BN in the Permatang Pauh by-election. He has since be sworn in into Parliament and been nominated to be the Opposition Leader. PP folks will continue with their daily lives......

So what about this goon known as Datuk Ahmad Ismail? He's still a Datuk, still an assemblyman for Bukit Bendera and he still see no action taken against him for his 'squatter' remarks on the Chinese community.

A lot of people are angry with his remarks; and that includes BN component party members. The MCA has been very vocal and the Gerakan too has voiced its displeasure. In today's papers, Ong Tee Keat was quoted as saying “Each component party should have an internal mechanism to take disciplinary action against any party member who makes racist remarks.” Fellow member, Fong Chan Onn was quoted saying,"The matter of citizenship for non-Malays should not be questioned, just as some religious issues should not be called into dispute. An apology from Ahmad is not enough. A sedition charge should be considered against him,”

All these strong words reflects the sentiments of Malaysians generally the Chinese towards Ahmad's idiotic remarks. Don't forget, Anwar won by a bigger margin even though the voters turnout was lower. It shows even the Malays are rejecting these racial discrimination stance by UMNO leaders.

What's more disappointing for me is that Pak Lah chose to 'protect' his goon. It shows the leadership (DPM included) is weak and not serious in fostering inter-race relationship. As party whip, the DPM is a wimp!

Tan Sri Annuar Musa is even more stupid with his comment that those remarks were made on his personal capacity. He even compared the racial remarks with Gerakan threat to pull out from BN. Any relationship with that? Gerakan's threat may have hurt BN or disrupt party's harmony but that's your internal problem. It has nothing to do with the others. How about your talk with PAS? He's just so shallow, justifying the remarks....... Congrats for having these people as our elected reps!

Until an appropriate action is taken, I doubt many people will still have any confidence in the present Government.

A goodie budget or no, we want justice not sweets!
