week 34



  1. Azalina is going to contest for Wanita Umno chief post in the coming UMNO 14th general election. Yesss !!!! The present incumbent is Shahrizat, whose reputation in politics today is badly tarnished due to her link to the Feedlot Cowgate scandal. Azalina herself is not 100 % clean ( I mean there's been stories in the past) but of the two, I'd prefer Azalina 10000 times over. Shahrizat, it is high time you buzzed off. There's no dearth of capable candidates for the post. Wanita UMNO akan kelihatan lebih bermoral tanpa Shahrizat. Tolonglah fahami realiti ini. Jocelyn's analysis here.More urge for her to let go post.
    I wonder, tepung gomak for compact powder ? 
    Or is it turmeric powder..
  2. Sedang menanti dengan sabar bila agaknya Dr M nak lancarkan serangan terhadap Najib secara terang-terangan. Bunga-bunganya dah ada kot.. Dah banyak sangat dah diperkatakan tentang Najib dan ketidakcekapannya, kelemahannya, penasihat-penasihatnya, pemborosannya.  Kan dah cakap ? "Sayap pemuda Pertubuhan Pribumi Perkasa Kebangsaan (Perkasa) mengejutkan ramai pihak apabila membuat gesaan supaya Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak meletak jawatan ekoran gagal menguruskan negara dengan baik." Penaung Perkasa adalah Dr M.
  3. 02 September. Harakah dah lapor gesaan Dr M. Kalau UMNO tak nak ubah pucuk pimpinan yang dah tua-tua tu, rakyat akan berpersepsi yang UMNO tak nak berubah.
  4. Hanezam thinking aloud : Democracy ceases to be "a government by the people" once their ideals are set aside by the leader that they elected for his personal gains. This happens when the party's candidate in an election is chosen by the party. The candidate named by the party has to abide by party's wishes. The candidate may have entered into deals with the party, deals that could be against the interest of his people. So, as a solution, can we have the people of the party to name the candidate of their liking. The people of each constituency must employ certain endeavours (with help from technology and the SPR) to screen for the right candidate who would stand by their political aspirations. So there's a sort of an agreement entered into by the people and their candidate. Let us say UMNO people of Constituency A picks X as their right candidate because X has agreed to fight for their UMNO grassroots stands in issues K. L. M. N.... and so on. X has agreed to uphold these these stands and the leader is to consult people of his constituency once new issues or circumstances arise. Once elected the party has to respect the candidate chosen by the people. So, you build up the government from bottom. A leader cannot be imposed on you. That's ironically so undemocratic. I think this is really possible in this facebook twitter and whatever else era. What do you think ? I think I'm gonna ask Mr Fed Up this question at AKJ's blog. 
Someone must help me. Under the amendment to UMNO constitution recently, grassroots members, are they are now allowed to vote ? 

"The amended Umno constitution was approved in 2009 which among others increased the total number of delegates eligible to vote in the party's highest positions and posts in the division level apart from doing away with the quota system in the party's election.

More than 150,000 Umno delegates from 191 divisions nationwide will vote for the party's leadership this year compared to only 2,500 earlier."
