Why should this be an issue

I was recently sent this video that was done by KOMAS about the things that are happening in the PR governed states and also the things that were done in  Perak (before and after the fiasco)


Selepas Tsunami (After the Tsunami) from Pusat KOMAS on Vimeo.

Watch it and get it out to as many people as possible. Get the video to post from the below link. The government has banned this CD and have taken action against all who was caught with copies of these CDs (even if you were hitching a ride in a car where the boot has some of these CDs).

Let there be true democracy, where matured, factual reporting (no matter how detrimental to the ruling government) should not be censured! This is what counts to the rakyat!
We don't care if you are BN or PR, we want to be free to voice a matured, factual opinion and point of views! If lies are told, there are libel laws to enforce the truth!!!

A Fragile Fabric

We are a multiracial society
held together by racial unity.
Our racial unity is like a fragile fabric that is easily torn
by a careless comment or thoughtless taunt.
In a flash igniting a communal clash.
Communal communications must be conducted with care
as though walking up a rickety stair.

Different faiths seek the same entrance at Heaven's Gate.
God is great.
There is no reason to hate
all the things that God create.


The seed of prejudice must find no place
in little children full of grace
who must be encouraged to play with and embrace
children of other faith and race.


Lawmakers must not break
the laws that they make.
Let not the bigot redefine and undermine
the spirit of our Constitution which had been carefully crafted by enlightened minds.


For our future generation we must remain as one nation
free from all forms of discrimination
by statutory deprivation.
To compete and succeed in an unforgiving foreign field,
let us start practising at home an even playing field.


Respecting the rights of our minority
will enhance the worth of our entire society.
Any economic policy must prosper all the poor of our society.
Respect our poor their pride and dignity
charity with sincerity needs no publicity.


That is a trust we all share and bear
to keep our country free and fair.
Our nation's fragile fabric needs our ever vigilant care
to never, never let it tear.

UK - Is this the way we are going?

United Kingdom is going to the polls today.

Even in our EX-colonial master's homeland, the voters want change too! And it is said that there is possibility of a hung parliament as it is a very close fight. This is where the Queen will play her role as a constitutional monarch (just like in 1974).
 
Will our Sultan's learn from her!? And take the courage to form a parliament for the people! Or NOT!

Interesting to see if we suffer the same fate in the next GE where it is a spilt in the country, and if we will be able to hold a matured decision making model, or are we going to show our immaturity.
