Is Anwar that naive or stupid that he cannot see the false façade that Zul is wearing on his face? I think Anwar may need to spend a second term in the Sungai Buloh Prison to wake him up to the reality of what is going on in the real world.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
The Member of Parliament for Kulim, Zulkifli Noordin, is keeping his options open. If and when his party sacks him then he will decide where he goes from there. Well, for sure, he will not be joining PAS because he is at war with PAS. That is why he always takes the opposite stand to that of PAS.
Zul’s personal feud with PAS actually goes back a long time, back to the time of the late PAS President, Ustaz Fadzil Noor. Ustaz Fadzil did not want to have anything to do with Zul. He would not touch Zul with a ten-foot pole.
There was one occasion when Ustaz Fadzil was on the way to an event and when he was told that Zul was also going to be there he told his driver to turn the car around and take him home. Ustaz Fadzil would try to avoid any event that Zul would be attending.
But why was Ustaz Fadzil so against Zul? Those who personally know Ustaz Fadzil would tell you that this is one very kind old man who carried no grudges. But why was he so ‘extreme’ when it came to Zul?
It is not that Ustaz Fadzil was taking it a bit too personal when it came to Zul. It is that Ustaz Fadzil did not trust Zul and felt that he was just a plant, a Trojan Horse, who should not be trusted further than you can throw him.
Zul is very ‘Islamic’. He is in fact even more Islamic than PAS, almost Taliban in attitude. So why did he not join PAS? Does he not want to join PAS?
It is not that he does not want to join PAS but more that PAS does not want him. And it is not because Zul is too Islamic even for PAS’s standards that the party does not want him. It is just that PAS does not trust him and suspects that there is more than meets the eye as far as Zul is concerned.
Don’t forget, in the Art of War you need ‘sleepers’. These are plants or Trojan Horses you send into the opposing camp to create damage from the inside. During the Cold War, the superpowers used sleepers a lot. Russia had scores of sleepers in the British government, some very high up the ranks.
And Umno too uses this very effective sleeper strategy. People are sent into the opposition camp as plants or Trojan Horses. They are in PAS. They are in DAP. And they are most certainly in PKR.
Do you know that back in 1999 one Special Branch officer became the head of one of the Parti Keadilan Nasional (PKN) branches? Yes, that’s right. A Special Branch officer was a PKN branch chairman and the party did not find out until much later. How much damage do you think he had done by the time they found out?
Do you know that some of the staff in the PKN headquarters back in the early years reported to the Special Branch? Their job was to print out the membership list and other documents and reports and pass them on to the Special Branch. Yes, but what they did not know is there are also Special Branch officers who report to me. So I was fully aware of the ‘black ops’ going on in the party headquarters.
After I detected the Special Branch agent, I used him to leak false information to Bukit Aman. This is called a ‘disinformation’ campaign. In a disinformation campaign you leak false information to confuse the enemy.
I then placed my son -- who is now in the Sungai Buloh Prison -- in the party secretariat and his job was to key in members’ details into the computers. But we had two membership lists. One showed only 20,000 members, which we left ‘exposed’ for the Special Branch agent to copy and pass on to Bukit Aman. Then we had the second list, which actually had 250,000 members, but which we kept hidden.
We did not allow even the party Supreme Council Members to see this list. This is because we did not trust our own Supreme Council Members and suspected some of them to be Special Branch agents as well.
The only two people allowed to sight this genuine membership list was the Secretary-general, Anuar Tahir, and the Deputy President, Dr Chandra Muzaffar. Even Dr Wan Azizah was only told how many ‘real’ members we had but she was not given any printout. And the Supreme Council, much to its chagrin, would not receive a membership report during the monthly Supreme Council meetings.
Can you imagine the difficulty we faced when we could not trust our own party leaders in the Supreme Council and had to hide information from them and mislead them because we were worried if we told them the truth then Bukit Aman would get this information within the hour?
And there are still many plants, spies, agents and Trojan Horses in the opposition, in particular in PKR. Anwar Ibrahim knows this. Dr Syed Husin Ali knows this. Dr Wan Azizah Ismail knows this. Zaid Ibrahim knows this. Azmin Ali knows this. Datuk Kamarul Bahrin knows this. Saifuddin Nasution knows this. Tian Chua knows this. R. Sivarasa knows this. In fact, every bleeding party leader knows this and they have known this from way back in 1999.
Do you know how good these agents are? One day, back in 2000 or so, they downloaded all the data from the party’s computers and short-circuited the computers after that. We came to office one morning and found that all ten computers had practically ‘melted’. It was definitely an inside job and we suspected who that person might be.
This particular guy sleeps in the office -- so in that sense he is the first one in and the last one out. One night, I too slept in the office, without him knowing of course, and I monitored the telephone switchboard. When I saw the light come on to show which extension was being used, I sneaked up and eavesdropped on the conversation. Yes, he was sending in his daily report.
From then on I used him to send Red Herrings to Bukit Aman. I still smile when I think of all that crap I was feeding the Malaysian intelligence agency that at one time in the 1950s was acclaimed as the best in the world, far superior to even the KGB and CIA.
In another incident, one Special Branch officer penetrated Ruslan Kassim’s office. Ruslan Kassim was then the party Information Chief. I suspected he was Special Branch because during the ‘Arsenic Demonstration’ in the National Mosque (Masjid Negara) he wore a pink wristband. (Stupid isn’t it?)
I grabbed him by the arm and tugged at his wristband and asked him, “Ini apa?” He replied, “Takde apa. Saja.”
From that day on I kept an eye on him and one day he came to my office and asked whether he could leave his bag in my room for an hour or so as he needed to run out for lunch.
“No problem,” I replied, but as soon as he left I searched his bag and found a tape recorder. And it was running on record mode.
I then made many phone calls and spoke to ‘phantoms’ on the other end. I engaged in all sorts of conversations with imaginary people. And of course, in my ‘conversation’, I ‘revealed’ a lot of party secrets.
This chap came back after lunch to collect his bag and till today I still wonder how useful Bukit Aman found all those ‘secrets’ that were recorded.
Back in 1999, during the Tenth General Election, we had to ‘sweep’ the operations room a few times every day. And it was mind-boggling the number of ‘bugs’ that were discovered. How did they plant these bugs if not for the fact that it were insiders who were doing it -- because for sure outsiders and police officers could never get past the front door, let alone all the way up to the tenth floor. And we are not talking about lower level insiders, mind you. They were not allowed into the operations room. We are talking about high-level insiders, top party leaders, those with ‘security clearance’.
Anyway, I am rambling. But the point I want to make is for more than ten years we have had to live with this problem and always had to be one step ahead of these agents of Bukit Aman. And we did not trust even the top party leadership because all were suspects as far as we were concerned.
So who is Zulkifli Noordin? He is not even of that level I would call a top party leader. And if we do not trust the top party leadership and suspect the top party leadership of being police and/or Umno spies and agents, what more a person like Zul Noordin?
So, freedom of speech is fine. Democracy is fine. And we should not block anyone from exercising his or her right of expression. But was Zul merely doing this? Or is there something more sinister to what he is doing?
The late PAS President did not trust him. We too never trusted him since his second ISA detention because our sources in Bukit Aman told us he had been ‘turned’.
I would urge Anwar Ibrahim to exercise caution. Anwar sat in jail from 1998 to 2004. So he did not have to manage the party office. I was in the party office right up to the end of 2004. So I know more than Anwar himself about what was going on in the party office and the problems we faced in always having to be one step ahead of plants and Trojan Horses.
And we say that Zul Noordin has a hidden agenda. His agenda is not to uphold Islam or to exercise his right of expressing his opinion. His agenda is to create a split in Pakatan Rakyat, in particular in Selangor, so that Najib Tun Razak can grab back the state as he plans to do. And he had planned to do that this month. And this month has only a few days left. So expect them to become more desperate.
Is Anwar that naive or stupid that he cannot see the false façade that Zul is wearing on his face? I think Anwar may need to spend a second term in the Sungai Buloh Prison to wake him up to the reality of what is going on in the real world.
By the way, Anwar, now do you believe that Saiful, the man Najib sent to work in the party office, is a plant? You have only one plant to worry about. We have had so many. But we ‘killed off’ all the plants they sent. We used them to mislead the enemy. You allowed that one plant called Saiful to kill you. Now you want to allow another plant called Zul Noordin to kill Pakatan Rakyat as well?

A person like Zaid Ibrahim is a good guy and he's a big asset for PR. However, the job of earning votes is better lead by Anwar because he's much more active and aggressive and he influences people with his charisma. If people only think about getting Anwar down every time PR is in trouble, I think that's the reason why it's hard to change the government in the next PRU. Anwar needs support and also guidance, not the blame from people who only know to point fingers at other people.
If you think that blaming is the best thing to do, you would never stop doing it because there won't be anyone who an lead a reform without making mistakes and without running into problems at all.

If he does not clean the PR stables and then act and recruit only honest people with convictions of a multi-national Malaysia, then he and PR will just become a "UMNO wannabe".
And, if and when PR takes power it will be just like Aristide's Haiti, or Badawi's Malaysia, -
a reasonably decent chap surrounded by incorrigibly corrupted officials/ bureaucratic infrastructure , while he himself is clueless, and out of his depth.
Inspire and build up a team of honest, principled, capable leaders first.
Malaysians will beat a path to the door steps of such a team.

Sometimes I wonder why must PKR (or rather Anwar) keep this MP. Is it because he was in his(Anwar's) defence team during the first episode? Well, this thorn is going to cause more harm if it's not removed immediately.

After reading yr piece, I thought 'wow!' Feeling tired, mulling over the state of PR today - it cannot rule effectively with this constant 'kacau' from within. BN have all the resources to bring down PR - no doubt, it can forcefully take back Selangor. There are days I wondered, don't u feel tired & burned-out? The day when PR is able to capture 2/3rd majority in Parliament will be the day this country goes down...... down... all the way down, economically, in every sense. Stock market collapse to CI 200+ pts..that kind of scenario. A mother of all crashes. Until then, one would sit back n watch n let it self-destroy. It's precisely what it deserves. Sori abt the 49% collateral damage. Am in this category too.

How do people like Zulkifli Noordin get into parliament? Pakatan should set better standards for the type of people that can become a member of parliament. In Singapore a simple degree holder cannot become a member of parliament. How many of Pakatan’s Member of Parliament are CEO material? If pakatan’s elected members are rubbish, there will always be problems because of all the mistakes that are done. Pakatan has to set better standards then UMNO for its members of parliament.

Anwar, please always remember that today we are friends but tomorrow we will be enemies. Zulkifli is certainly a liability to both PKR and PR.
The only option to be taken against this Zulkifli is to sack him. When he is outside he can say whatever he likes. Afterall the torn in PKR and PR has been out. He is talking as if he is a Umno man.

Reading the above, automatically brings to mine another, lo & behold, PKR member. Same type of grudge against a PR component party. Think Wee Choo Keong. Remember how he brought up the alleged 'triad connection' of some DAP reps? It ultimately resulted in the sacrifice of Teoh Beng Hock. After he was expelled from DAP, he spent years getting even with DAP, and even set up his own party , the MDP, just to hit at LKS & DAP at every opportunity. He made it his sole objective in life.
The problem is, Anwar & PKR take in every dog & his master, in their desire to grow as a national party. They should actually spend more time sieving through the dirt, so that scums are not let in.
How Anwar & the rest of the PKR leaders tolerate people like this Zul & that Wee Choo Keong, is beyond me. If I have a choice, and if I am in Anwar's shoes, I'd have pecat-ed them long long time ago. Take a good look at them. They have no grassroots support to speak of. The reason Zul won Kulim (controversial count, remember?) and WCK won Wangsa Maju (or whatever) was because of the support which the rakyat gave to them simply because of the greater tsunami waves of change that was released in 2008.

Thanks for posting this... Although I have heard of such situation all over the world, I never thought it really would be happening in our peace loving country... Now I'm stunned.
When I first saw the dispute between this Zul something and PAS's Khalid Samad, I have thought that he might be someone bribed by UMNO... But if he is.... I feel that he wouldn't be so open about it as it will reduce his "trustability" in the coaliation... So here's what I feel...
He has some supporters, which is why he dare to bring this matter up. He is also an opportunist. He wanted to "threaten" P.R of a move over, bringing whoever that supports the ban of the word "Allah" with him... He would try to incite disputes in the P.R over the issue, and hopefully be able to fish in more "supporters".
But what prompted him to do it? Offers from the other side of the river... He wanted to please someone so that he could be offered something for his actions, and his "capabilities" of fishing support out of P.R...
And if he was ever sacked, he would use the support tool behind him and make a BIG Hoo Haa out of it... Hoping to create more damage, and the mainstream media will again provide support...
Well... It may not be so... But that was what I felt when I read about the disputes he had with PAS's Khalid Samad...

Being in loggerheads with Zul seems to me a pointless confrontation when we consider the role Zul plays to a tee. If left to me Zul Nordin should have been made to face the sternest action possible as prescribed by party constitution.
While I have no idea what that might entail, full expulsion from party ranks should be seen as a remedy. This drawn out affair should have been sorted out long ago considering collateral damaged caused.
Anwar should give Zul an ultimatum soonest, even to the extend of nullifying Kulim altogether. What I'm suggesting is to let it go to a vote, let the people of Kulim decide if possible but if not, just disown the son of a gun and let it be explained to the people of Kulim why such an action is necessary.
It is my perception, rightfully or not, but let this be a start to change a problem that plagues Malay politics. It is my view that candidates often swing both ways (now, no naughty thoughts) thus effecting one's credibility. Not to suggest , for example the DAP lot are perfect but in general they do posses a stronger straighter spine when compared with the other pole.
Not meant to rub anyone the wrong way but that is indeed my perception. It is critical the need for members of any community who offer themselves for public office to posses a front that is sound, their credibility beyond reproach, are able to speak their minds fully with no fear and be prepared to face the music should their conduct fall short from the criteria/standards prescribed above.
About time public make demands of those who seek to represent us and hold them to the highest standards possible and not have a repeat like this slimeball case of Zulkifli Nordin antagonising an entire organisation, just because he feel like it and all the while stringing Anwar along. If anything, it is a sign of weakness that reflects badly on PKR's leadership.
All in all, let's make that quantum leap to impose the highest standards possible while making no apologies in those demands and have it out in the open that there will be repercussions.
Remember the madness when news broke of two PKR's representatives getting themselves caught in a honey trap ? My first reaction was to call for their suspension but MB Nizar's response to the problem was totally out of line with my expectations - see my reasons the need for a strong spine, high standards and accountability ?
Let rewind to consider - there exist a problem that needed a firm hand for quick decision making and resolution. What happened next was Nizar and entire Pakatan state govt putting themselves in a bind. Instead of swift action, they instead "terhegih-hegih" only to allow UMNO factions seize the initiative to deepen the plots.
After the initial stumbling out of the blocks, we now know a wider net was cast and an additional target was identified. If there were swift action taken from the off in dealing with the two idiots, the second part of the equation (the cunt from Jelapang) wouldn't come in play at all.
See my point the need for fast decisive action Anwar Ibrahim.
P/S Someone please get him to see some sense. Get him to read what RPK has to say or what I've just written above. Do us the honours Mat Saman Kati.

They asked him: "Isa, spirit of Allah, why are you running away from that man?"
Prophet Isa (Jesus, peace upon him) replied: "I am running away from a fool."
People were still more surprised, they knew that Isa (Jesus, peace upon him) was a prophet. He had cured the sick. He had even brought the dead to life. So they said: "But Isa, spirit of Allah, you have power to bring dead to life."
Prophet Isa (Jesus, peace upon him) smiled and said: "True, I have brought dead to life. But I find it difficult to bring a fool to his senses."
