Can Muhyiddin pass three simple tests as to whether he is sincerely and seriously committed to Najib ‘s 1Malaysia concept?

Deputy Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is only half right when said that my head is “filled with problems” but half wrong when he alleged that these problems are about Pakatan Rakyat.

My head is indeed filled with problems but they are not about the Pakatan Rakyat but are compounded by the life-and-death struggle of Umno and the other Barisan Nasional component parties including MCA, Gerakan and MIC after the political tsunami of the 12th general election in 2008 and the pathetic 10-month history of Najib’s “1Malaysia” slogan and concept which may meet the fate of being the first slogan of a Prime Minister with the shortest useful life-span.

Muhyiddin’s suggestion that that I am bankrupt of ideas and his allegation that I had run out of issues to use against the government are “old hats” and “no great shakes”, as they had been thrown at me by Umno, MCA and Gerakan leaders for over four decades but to no great avail, or Umno and the Barisan Nasional would not be fighting for their political life after the March 8 “political tsunami” while the stocks of DAP and Pakatan Rakyat, whatever our problems, are on the ascendance.

Instead of making personal attacks and baseless accusations that I was laying a “trap” to “cause friction between him and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak”, Muhyiddin should have responded to my call to him to declare whether he is the right-hand man of Najib or former Prime Minister Tun Mahathir in the Najib premiership.

It is most significant that Muhyiddin did not even attempt to deny that he is the custodian and surrogate of the Mahathir legacy in the Najib administration.

Muhyiddin also cleverly avoided the questions I had posed about his commitment to Najib’s 1Malaysia slogan and concept by claiming that he had the same stand as Najib on 1Malaysia.

This is serious. Is Muhyiddin claiming that he had Najib’s endorsement and approval for all his utterances and actions which are inimical to the realization of the 1Malaysia slogan and concept, including:

  • His defense of the racist “brain washing” and indoctrination on “ketuanan Melayu” by Biro Tata Negara despite criticisms and expose of its racist, divisive and seditious content for the past two decades;

  • His attempt to mitigate the Nasir Safar outrage claiming that it could have been “a slip of the tongue” when Najib’s senior political aide labelled Indians and Chinese in Malaysia as “pendatang”, alleging that the Chinese came as beggars and the Chinese women as “prostitutes”;

  • His conspicuous silence when the racialist rantings of Umno executive secretary Datuk Abdul Rauf Yusoh at an Umno club function in London earlier this month was exposed; and

  • His hamfisted attempt to aid and abet the inflammatory and incendiary campaign by Umno-controlled media like Utusan Malaysia, Berita Harian, government television and radio stations, playing the race and religious cards to viciously and falsely paint Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and Pakatan Rakyat Penang State Government as “anti-Malay” and “anti-Islam”.

Let me ask Muhyiddin one question point-blank: Is he aware that the Najib administration’s sincerity and seriousness about 1Malaysia is under great test in Penang – why the 1Malaysia concept is being undermined and compromised in the vicious and sustained exploitation of the race and religious card by Umno media and agents in the conspiracy to defame the Penang Chief Minister and Pakatan Rakyat Penang State Government as anti-Malay and anti-Islam?

If the people of Penang regard the 1Malaysia concept as fake and hypocritical, how can he expect the people of Sabah and Sarawak and the rest of Malaysians to have much confidence in the slogan?

As Deputy Prime Minister, Muhyiddin should be in the forefront to secure the co-operation of all MPs and political parties outside the Barisan Nasional fold to make a success of the 1Malaysia campaign, on the ground that it is a national issue and not a party agenda.

Unless the 1Malaysia concept is merely an Umno and Barisan Nasional political gimmick, Muhyiddin should have taken the initiative to approach MPs and political parties outside the Barisan Nasional to put aside all partisan differences to foster the national development of the 1Malaysia concept.

He should be meeting with Opposition MPs in Parliament to forge an all-party platform to ensure the achievement of the 1Malaysia concept at all levels of national life.

But Muhyiddin has done none of this in the past ten months that he was Deputy Prime Minister.

It is the DAP which has proposed the establishment of an Opposition-headed Parliamentary Select Committee on 1Malaysia which has been met with indifference and disinterest from Muhyiddin and the overwhelming majority of Barisan Nasional Ministers.

This is really quite ridiculous as Muhyiddin and the Najib Cabinet should be persuading the Pakatan Rakyat MPs to agree to the establishment of a Parliamentary Select Committee on 1Malaysia and not the other way round!
Why is this so? Is this because the Najib Cabinet is full of Ministers who are quite skeptical about the 1Malaysia concept treating it as nothing more than political theatre not to be taken seriously?

Who are the Ministers in the Najib Cabinet who have the 1Malaysia DNA? I do not see anyone. No wonder neither Muhyiddin nor the other Cabinet Ministers comport themselves with any conviction that they are the standard-bearers of the 1Malaysia slogan and concept.

There are three simple tests as to whether Muhyiddin is sincerely and seriously committed to Najib’s 1Malaysia, viz:

  • Whether as DPM he would agree to the establishment of an Opposition-headed Parliamentary Select Committee on 1Malaysia;

  • Is he prepared to declare that the basis of 1Malaysia is “ketuanan rakyat Malaysia” and not “ketuanan Melayu”; and

  • Is he prepared to endorse the objective of 1Malaysia as defined by the 1Malaysia Government Transformation Programme (GTP) Roadmap to create a nation where every Malaysian perceives himself or herself as Malaysian first, and by race, religion or region second – by setting the lead to be the first Umno national leader to declare that he is Malaysian first and Malay second?

If Muhyiddin cannot pass three simple 1Malaysia tests, then he should stop pretending that he is on the same wavelength with Najib on the 1Malaysia concept.

  2. From the look on his face and the way he talk, we can know that he’s not sincere nor serious.
    By being a DPM, he has already acted as a role of a PM.
    If he were to become a PM (God forbids), he’s going to act like a king then.
    This guy is not matured and not ready to take on the country yet!

  5. How can this guy become a DPM is amazing judging by the way he talks and acts!!!!!!!
    My chief clerk Asmadi beats him hand down on political and economic issues.
    This guy is haughty, ketuanan, never ever wrong and apportunistic just like that “rice” Yatim and Nasir the “Safari”.
    His mentality is equally comparable to that “oxfart” monkey KJ.

  6. Dear LKS,
    Pls dont play wayang, u and yr companion are the same. Enough of political, do the the battle at the next PRU 13. I can bet to the last dollar the u n the pakatan will never enjoy the same margin of victory as in PRU 12. People are getting feedd-up with u n DSAI, u making this country in a bloody mess just to save one old goat from being brought to justice. We are no FOOL. Tq Bro

  9. This fool is really a part of Stupidity Inc. With this type of leader talking rubbish everyday, we are the world’s laughing stock.

    I have very smart, intelligent and intellectual friends in Pakatan Rakyat.

    It is a great travesty of justice that a fool like him is DPM when my good friend Dr. Dzulkefly (one of the Pakatan Rakyat MPs) should instead be Deputy Prime Minister.

  10. How many people saw the smirk on Muhiyiddin face when he said that Sdr. Lim’s head is ‘filled with problems’.. He was so sure of himself and yet he did not answer the issues at all. Isn’t that VERY wrong in itself – he did not do his job and yet he feels so proud of himself?

    It is not his disrespect to Sdr. Lim that is of concern – that is expected, given and frankly the more the better. The disrespect he showed was to his own constituency and his supporters. He literally is showing disgust to the Malays that support him i.e., they are idiots to him basically. I worry that he may be right.

    Also one bright note is that psychologically such behaviour of subtle disgust is actually a lie. He is worried. There is real trouble in those smirks..

  11. cintanegara :LKS is good at asking questions…He will ask the same question over and over…What would be his son’s response if he asked the similar questions…. Is Penang short of leaders?

    What to do, when the people to whom he is asking those questions, either avoid answering them or completely ignore them. Can’t blame him for being persistent when he’s trying to do his job.
    I believe his son would answer questions put to him, but will the Umno-BN controlled mainstream media report his answers correctly in their entirety?

  12. Kit,
    Muhyiddin is no where compared to you in political acumen and IQ. He is actually a dumb fellow who managed to be where he is today because of UMNO. He would be nobody today in the private sector.
    This fellow has never been invited to speak to an international audience or even a recognized alumni.
    Only idiot wallows in racist politics.He is one such idiot.
    Why argue with a lesser fool.

  16. Whether you realize or not,,,,,,LKS is trying to divert attention from the real issue….Over the past few months, his son has been heavily criticized….,any father would defend her son, of course…that’s the problem when father, son and daughter in law in the same party and hold significant posts…It’s family first for DAP, right?

  18. how bout mahathir then ? his sons’ and badawi his son in law khairil, samy vellu and his son vel pary?, Najib and his brothers and of course his wife?

    LKS’s son is an obvious victim of defamation by BN who’s trying so hard to do what they did to perak but i doubt it will ever work in penang. tough luck BN.

    A person with average intelligence knows what’s happening in penang, so cintanegara spread your BN woes in their support group page, i think their most current issues are they are worried women might take over the party. laughing my ass off !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  19. Putting a person in a leader position does not necessarily mean that the person actually have ‘Leadership’ quality and skills. The same goes to Ministerial positions, MPs, EXCOs, etc, be it from the BN or Pakatan pack. In business, management realised the needs to train and groom potential leaders to be efficient and effective leaders through rigorous training and mentoring. Having said so…what are the training programs have our elected leaders done to improve themselves especially in the areas of communication and leadership? Have our seniors in Pakatan putting a training program to groom our young elected representatives and to be ready for the next general election? Do have a thought in this area.

  20. honestly i’d rather risk getting idiots to manage the country than BN because there’s nothing more anyone can lose if the opposition takes over but i can’t imagine how much more backward we could get with UMNO staying in power.

  21. “VOTER GET VOTERS” campaign .
    It’s NOW or NEVER
    Vote for a BETTER & a FREE Malaysia.

    Be an active political activist.
    Vote 4 a Goverment bend on eradicating Corruptions,Racisms,Abuse of Human Rights,IS

    A Goverment of the People,by the People & for the People.

  22. Dear tenacious B,

    You have my blessing , indeed LGE is doing great guns in penang and the silent majority is fully behind the chief minister ,he has done wonders to penang , it is only the msm that is painting a negative picture about him , the actual fact is on the ground lvl , he is a likeable figure , he will get all the support come next GE

  23. chengho :Father and Son controlling Dap no one elsethe rest of Dap leaders are only peripherals like printer and cable to the desktop..any other strong leader from Dap ?

    chengho :Father and Son controlling Dap no one elsethe rest of Dap leaders are only peripherals like printer and cable to the desktop..any other strong leader from Dap ?

    Trying to incite infighting between DAP leaders?
    Probably, that’s Umno-BN’s tactic now, whereby if they are not able to be stronger than their opponents, they find ways to make their opponents weaker than them…

  24. cintanegara :Whether you realize or not,,,,,,LKS is trying to divert attention from the real issue….Over the past few months, his son has been heavily criticized….,any father would defend her son, of course…that’s the problem when father, son and daughter in law in the same party and hold significant posts…It’s family first for DAP, right?

    There’s nothing wrong to have family members involved in politics, even within the same political party or coalition, as long they do a good job.
    It’s just that Umno-BN’s campaign against Guan Eng is to:

    1) continue Umno-BN’s bid to seize power in Pakatan Rakyat governed states, as it has already done so earlier in Perak;

    2) divert the rakyat’s attention away from the weaknesses of Najib’s 1 Malaysia campaign, exposed by the racist remarks made & supported by his fellow Umno members, Nasir Safar & Abdul Rauf Yusoh.

  26. Being an MP of course LKS head is filled with problems. He needs to solve all these problems and issues created by dumno.

    I wonder what sort of substance muyiddin’s head is filled with? probably phlegm campur ludah with a touch of goo.

    no wonder he is hallucinating all the time with that rollover eyes.

  30. “same wavelength as Najib”
    I suppose both are on the same “microwave” as they are going to burn themselves out if they continue to use all their resources to destroy the opposition instead of seriously reforming Umno/BN.

  31. that clown is beaten already…no need to worry…he is interested to have fresh start like polly pot.

    reinvent the whole race.
    all five are sickman…already fighting a lost agenda.

    at this pace , his blood pressure build up and may not last till next GE.

    All the five clowns …same case
