So, to all those Pakatan Harapan supporters who thought that a NEW Malaysia under Pakatan Harapan really meant a NEW Malaysia, maybe you would like to buy some snake oil that will cure AIDS, cancer,…

Bush Senior has just died at age 94. Anwar quipped, going by that yardstick, Mahathir should go by next year. And that is how and when Anwar hopes to become Malaysia’s eighth prime minister. And…
The winds of change had been blowing for quite a while. No one really needed to use the manifesto as a reason to change when the polls were opened.

And we should stop calling these incidents “racial riots” – they are in fact mob attacks by racists and fascists intent on intimidating ethnic minorities in the country. Thus, the PH government…
They hate to see other communities gain access to the same liberal and equal space despite the fact this country is large enough for all.

In short, Terengganu’s RM1 billion a year oil royalty for the next ten years would be used as cagaran or collateral to raise RM11 billion and the money would be syphoned out and invested outside…

If racial and religious differences need to be wiped out from our MyKads in order for us to achieve unity, does it mean that we need to wipe out the gender marker as well to curb discrimination…

The reality is, human rights do not exist in any of the Abrahamic faiths. The Abrahamic faiths only talk about the rights of God, not the rights of Man. The First of the Ten Commandments is very…

IN my agama school in Johor Baru in the 1960s, I learnt about Iblis (Satan) who refused to bow down with the other angels before the first human (Adam) that God created.…

OUR unity in diversity is one of the gems that make me love so much this nation we call Malaysia. It is something so dear and precious, and a source of joy that we must all…

Kit Siang is what the Malays would call Cina tak malu. This Chinaman has absolutely no morals or dignity. The Chinese should be ashamed they have leaders like him. Even pariah is too good a label…
The Rizal immunity deal has not been finalised yet. The government first wants to know what he is going to say in his testimony and whether it is strong enough to convict Rosmah. At the end of the…
Then why not we just pay some Malays to demonstrate and burn cars in front of our church? Vincent Tan will then step in and set up a fund like what he is doing with the Seafield Hindu temple. And in…
So, it all comes back to abuse of power by the executive who concentrates power in his hands. Hence it does not matter who is the prime minister and what race he is. It is the system, not the person…

What went wrong since this matter was already settled four years ago? And why is Pakatan Harapan advising the temple to renege on the consent judgement and defy the court ruling? Is it to create a…
So therein lies the problem. The problem is not that Hindus love building temples on land that does not belong to them. It is that, after working for six days, God rested on the seventh day. And, on…
Kit Siang’s argument that Saudi Arabia ratified the ICERD but the monarchy was not abolished is a statement by an absolutely ignorant bugger. The monarchy has not fallen because the United States…
Kit Siang must stop blaming Umno and Barisan Nasional for ’61 years of misrule’. If it is 61 years of misrule then that includes the first 24 years of Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Razak Hussein and Tun…
We are now in a stalemate, an impasse. RUU355 is left on the backburner and ICERD will remain unsigned. It’s our way of resolving matters by leaving them unresolved, the classic Mexican standoff.…

From the writing in the Chinese media, it can be seen that this issue is threatening to become a “Chinese community vs LGE/DAP” confrontation. This may not augur well for Lim.
