I don't care whether your Swiss bank account has billions and billions of dollars, legally or illegally; as long as my wallet is full, and I have enough to still survive till the end of the month.

Mula-mula Saiful bersumpah
Lepas tu Najib juga bersumpah
Nasib baik SamyVellu tak bersumpah
Rakyat naik mual dan menyampah

Wanita Parti Keadilan Rakyat (KeADILan) akan menganjurkan satu majlis program "Himpunan Keluarga Merdeka" pada hari Sabtu ini (30 Ogos).

The big wigs have left, the press have pulled out and returned to their more routine reporting, the party workers have gone back to their more regular daily routines. The people of Permatang Pauh must be recovering from what has surely been a frantic month of August while, like millions of other their fellow Malaysians, also processing what transpired in their constituency.

“Reformasi, Reformasi….” these are the rousing battle cries at the ceramahs given by Anwar Ibrahim since the March/08 election and at the Permatang Pauh by-election campaigns, they are more jam-packed and impassioned than its emergence 10 years ago.

I refer to the letter Understanding the bumiputera's position 2008.

It's sad that after almost 40 years of affirmative policy for the bumiputera population of this country, it seems that the overall progress of the bumis in the areas of education and eradication of poverty is still far from satisfactory. Time and time again we see many Malay leaders and intellectuals express their concern in their various writings and opinions in the mainstream media as well as the Internet.

Today's report card, delivered to a Prime Minister who is accountable also as Liaison Chief of UMNO Penang and Chairman of BN, is impossible to hide: he  does not  have the minimal credibility needed to run the country day by day,

Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim

Tarikh 31 Ogos merupakan satu tarikh keramat bagi seluruh rakyat Malaysia. Ia menandakan kita merdeka dari penjajahan yang sudah sekian lama menzalimi serta menindas.

Elections can occur without democracy but democracy cannot endure without elections. This democratic process allows voters to choose the best candidate with the most wisdom and virtue to pursue a common good.

‘Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t’ is an old adage often quoted by those who prefer to cling to the status quo on the basis that any change involves risk and the risk of changing for the worse is reason enough not to try a new path.

It came to my attention in January 2008 that Vasanthakumar has been planted by the Police Special Branch to infiltrate HINDRAF and upon further investigations the fact became apparent.

More than 120 temple representatives present at a meeting organized by Malaysia Hindu Sangam at the Dewan Tan Sri K R Soma, KL yesterday were shocked that their temples and 2 existing Hindu Crematoriams were not identified at the master Plan of City of Kuala Lumpur by 2020.

I would like to share my experience in Johor Baru and how the emergency hotline (999) responded to crime which indirectly encourages more road bully and rising crime rate.

We are residing in Bahrain since 2004. This year, towards the election date, my husband approached the Malaysian Embassy personnel and asked about the procedure to cast his vote by post. To our surprised we were told: "oh, the postal votes are reserved just for the public servants and Malaysian students study overseas. Other eligible voters will have to go back to Malaysia and cast their votes from their respective constituency" what kind of joke is that?

The Secretary General of Parti Keadilan Rakyat, Dato Salehuddin Hashim, has lodged a complain to the Election Commission today. The letter was submitted to the EC Chairman Personal Assistant, Pn Jamaliah Mohammed, at 1:15pm on 21 August 2008.

Hamzah Zainuddin is the person who arranged for Raja Petra Kamarudin to be declared bankrupt on 14 April 2001 while he was under Internal Security Act detention.

We are closely monitoring developments in the ACA investigation of the Perak Executive Councilors and others who were detained today.  A thorough, transparent and professionally conducted investigation into the matter is the only way we can ascertain whether the bounds of the law have been transgressed.
