下流当入流

无聊当有趣，幼稚当幽默，下流当入流，走出讲堂后，除了引人发笑有何启发？对个人修养对政治法权有何启示？

308后的马来西亚政治环境，说是国民醒觉国家开放，然部份政客对人文价值的摧残，在新生代群中所带来的深远影响，或是大家所料不及！

中国70年代文化大革命，对毛主席疯狂的崇拜让年青红卫兵对父母师长的惨害，毁弃儒家学说; 40年后的今日尚有馀影。

行动党众人以尖酸刻薄泼辣之口吻态度，对国内政治人物的批斗和红卫兵的所为可相提并论！在华裔子弟中渲染，更甚是以仇恨文化琅琅上口三字经问候为入流，再继续如此摧残已经稀薄的价值观，未来的惨局唯他是问！！

宣言是讲爽的！

 马华雪兰莪州联委会副秘书王钟璇对雪兰莪州务大臣卡立最近发表的言论不敢恭维。首先，当人们质问为何雪州民联政府没有兑现12届大选的承诺，语无伦次的卡立竟说大选宣言不是承诺！或应该是说308大选前胡扯，因为没想过会执政; 准备丢些课题让国阵去头痛。怎会想到胡扯难搞的事情，现在要自己扛！

再来，当面对数千名单亲妈妈要求民联政府兑现在308大选期间承诺州政府将每个月提供100令吉津贴给州内的单亲妈妈，雪兰莪州务大臣卡立竟质疑这些单亲妈妈在上届大选的选票流向！

她说，据报导，2020名单亲妈妈基於雪兰莪州民联政府没有兑现2008年大选的竞选宣言，因此於11月22日入禀高庭起诉州政府，追讨1090万令吉。然而卡立却说，日前向雪兰莪州政府兴讼追讨拖欠津贴的单亲妈妈，必须向法庭证明她们在上届大选，投票给伊斯兰党丶民主行动党或人民公正党，方能获得津贴。

如今完全不提起12届大选前的诺言，出尔反尔已是不负责任的作法; 可现在还要扭曲竞选宣言的承诺，因为在当时的大选宣言根本没提及选票事项。投票本是秘密的，卡立竟质疑这些单亲妈妈在上届大选的选票投给谁！

也是格拉那再也选区协调官的王钟璇说，选举不是买票，既然说了就要做到，州政府是有义务照顾全雪州人民的福祉，而不是只是照顾州政府的支持者而已。

“如果州政府没有能力，大臣应该明言；然而大臣宁愿将州政府的钱用在为民联宣传用途，也不愿将钱津贴正为生活挣扎的单亲家庭。”

王钟璇挑战卡立，勇敢无畏站出来，不要逃躲大选宣言的承诺！不然，就请在13届大选前向全民重复说大选宣言不是承诺！你们不要迫我兑现！！宣言是讲爽的！

Christmas is for Everyone !!

Christmas is around the corner, I still remember an article which I read in 2009 December.

After reading the article, I wrote in my blog & I wish to repost it here:

Yesterday, I read an article "Christmas is for everyone" by Rusdi Mustapha in Malay Mail. It helps me to recall how I spent Christmas with my children when they were young little kids.

First of all, my children and I are not Christians, but my Filipino maid is a Catholic. Initially, my maid and I will decorate the tree while my children happily helping with the decorative items. As my kids grow older, they help their "sister" decorate the tree; the "sister" has been with us for 12 years. (Now 15 years) 

I have Christmas tree in my house for 3 reasons:
1st To let my maid feel at home and teach my kids to respect other's religion,
2nd The twinkle lights on Christmas tree help to create festival mood in the family,
3rd Decorating Christmas tree is a project lead by the maid and assist by the kids.

The maid is a part of the family.

A comment posted to the article "Christmas is for everyone" : ....It reminds me of a story I heard 2weeks ago in Manado. My guide told me a story that the Indonesian PM visited a mosque there and an official made a request for a full grown pine tree within the mosque to be chopped down, on the account that it is a Christian tree! The PM asked when did the old pine tree convert to Christianity?

The comment tickles me but also make me ponder : Why must one be so narrow minded? Why can't we respect each other? I have a WISH: Let's 2010 be a GOOD year for everyone. ( The over jealous action or implementation of an official will jeopardize the policy and wishes of Leaders)

SERI MENANTI: Christmas is for everyone!

Rusdi Mustapha

Monday, December 28th, 2009 11:05:00

ONCE upon a time, almost in the age of enlightenment in this country in the early 90s, I wrote in a newspaper column about roasting turkey for Christmas for friends.

The following week, I received a letter from a Pas Youth leader asking me to repent for I had deviated from the true path of Islam or so he had surmised just from what appeared to be my derring-do attitude for making a roast turkey dinner!

He said as roasting turkey has always been associated with the Christian religion, I as a Muslim, should stick to “our own” traditional culinary delights (lemang, rendang?).

And that I had succumbed to Christian ideology which he claimed was so so subtle, like roasting turkeys, and that Muslims would be easily influenced.

I sighed and laughed it off as being one of those quirks in life! This guy from Kelantan had probably never tasted roast turkey with cranberry sauce in his life, and yet he condemned the turkey as being heretic!

Like any other year, this year is no different when it comes to Dec 25; the world, and Malaysians included, celebrate Christmas. Like any other festival, it is celebrated in the true spirit of friendship, brotherhood, love and giving and most of all forgiving! And lots of turkey dinners, yum! And egg-nag, Christmas pudding and sweet potatoes!

Personally for me and my family, Christmas has always been a festival of happiness and a celebration of light.

From those days when we were in Canada and until now in Malaysia, except for this year, we have always had a small pine tree, namely a Douglas fir, in our living room that my wife and I, and our daughter when she was around, decorated.

Christmas in Canada was also fun. I had a lot of good memories, plus the snow AND the brutal wind-chill factor outside, and there will be a lot of presents under the tree for all of us.

Forget the religious connotations being associated with Christmas, this joyous celebration must be celebrated not only by Christians, but by Malaysians of all creed, colour and religion.

During my wandering days around the world, I had spent many Christmases with many groups, such as the most memorable one with a group of gypsies of Thessaloniki in Greece.

Here is the thing, gypsies are not even Christians and yet they find a reason to have fun. In their campsite they will make stew and they will be drinking a peculiar Greek drink called retsina, a type of wine that tastes like pine resin.

It tastes awful but after a while they forget the taste and start to spin and dance.

Come to think of it, I have celebrated Christmas with Ukrainians, Kurdish, Turkish, Indians, Albanians, Croatians, Chinese, Bosnians, Germans, Indonesians, Dutch, Slovaks and many, many more unique tribes of the world, and they all have one thing in common — they all celebrate Christmas with such joy, gusto and happiness!

It is a universal thing.

Did you know that the late PLO leader Yasser Arafat attended Christmas mass with his wife Seha who is a Catholic? In the Middle East, not all Arabs are Muslims and not all Muslims are also Arabs. They celebrate one another's religious celebration as Arabs. Even the sermon is in the Arabic language.

I have a good friend from Sarawak whose multi-religious family lives under one roof. As I know it, Evelyn and her sister Joyce are Christians, and the other three siblings are Muslims; they love one another and no religion can separate them. They live under the true concept of 1 Family, no matter what their religion is.

I know I am rambling, but it takes a lot of energy writing this column, knowing three of my most important persons — my wife, my daughter and my grand-daughter — are celebrating Christmas with friends and relatives over in Canada.

For the record, my only granddaughter, she is 10 months old, celebrated her first Christmas on this Planet Water, in Canada with her grandma-Uwan, her mummy and her daddy, and her daddy’s relatives and I can only imagine how joyous it must be, and sadly I am not there.

So here goes, Merry Christmas and May God or Allah, bless us all! Especially to my “keepers” and those I dearly love!

HAPPY READING !!

‘伸手将军’

马华雪兰莪州联委会副秘书王钟璇炮轰民主行动党在民联执政数州后，民主行动党总秘书林冠英当上槟州首长的今天，还当‘伸手将军’，向民众筹大选基金！

她说，行动党每次以政治讲座为名，四处向公众筹款。而这回更是“换了座位，换了脑袋”，在一家4星级酒店大摆延席，每桌售1500令吉或每个席位售200令吉，共筹了20万8千8百24令吉！已当家，竟然还继续要向民众筹款; 而且也只是为行动党的13届大选基金筹款!

在同一个时间，由马华八打灵南北区及格拉那再也3区会所办的“要稳定，不要乱” 千人宴; 现场有507桌，每桌卖300令吉。当晚的大部分售票所得都拨给2013年3区华小清寒学童助学金; 3区9间华小215位学童受惠。每位学生将在2013新学年，获600令吉辅助新学年开销，合共12万9000令吉。

也是格拉那再也选区协调官的王钟璇说，马华5千人宴会是在八打灵21区的一座停车场搭棚设宴。没有冷气，场地更是早前的倾盆大雨弄湿了。每桌300令吉的粗菜谈饭，马华依然以华教和学生的未来为依归！

行动党向来靠喊口号和扭曲事实来煽动华社不满政府的情绪，趁机捞取选票; 当权却扮可怜向民众筹款，用尽方法和模式，只为了入主布城，为了党，为了官爵！行动党筹款只是在于夺权用途，让他们的党员参加大选有机会当官。可曾真正为华教和华社谋求福祉？

她指出，过去行动党一直在污辱马华，指马华的宴会是免费的。然而，马华多场“要稳定丶不要乱”的大型晚宴都是售卖餐券成功举办; 收益大部分捐给当地的教育团体。马华办宴会和活动，是在贯彻 “取之社会，用之社会”的华人优良传统。

同胞们，行动党在伊斯兰党多项不利非伊斯兰教徒的措施课题，有如中风，口齿不清; 没有急先锋没有大声公。而在为华教出几分力时，马华以实际行动表示诚意，行动党却大选为主，官爵为重！！

喂！你在那里？

马华雪兰莪州联委会副秘书王钟璇认为，“丹州禁为异性理发”的条例非但对商业活动带来深远影响，还剥夺了非穆斯林的自由权益。可是，一直向华裔大喊“伊斯兰法不影响非穆斯林生活”的行动党，至今无一位华裔党领袖敢站出来面对问题喊话。

吉兰丹州地方政府委员会主席拿督达基尤丁于11月25日宣布，州政府自1990年冻结申请男女混合式的理发店执照，只有“男客男剪，女客女剪”。过去全国只有一州是在伊斯兰党管制下，其他州属都不以为然; 20多年来丹州华裔及非穆斯林只有忍气吞声。

她也挑战雪州民联的大臣卡立，针对这项措施表明立场，即是否支持类似的条列在雪州落实，以免伊斯兰党会利用公正党和行动党，企图也在雪州落实伊斯兰法。

她说，我国宪法提倡经济自由，即人民有权利在不违反宪法的情况下，进行各自的经济活动。但是极端思想的丹州民联政府，却在开倒车; 仍然以“男女授受不亲”为伊斯兰教义，侵犯非穆斯林的权益。

以此类推，很多服务业也不能替异性服务？包括医务人员？按照这逻辑，难怪曾经一度穆斯林女性医生，竟用原子笔把脉？

“我想请问行动党，对这有什麽看法？不要逃避默不作声就可了事！”

也是格拉那再也国会选区协调官的王钟璇重申，我国各族人民在过去独立50多年以来，都有权利和空间以各自的专业谋求生活。她说，如果民联是一体的，那么民联四州尤是在雪州就该落实此条列，让人民在来届大选，通过手中一票表达他们是否接受这样的决策！

在今日资讯迅速的时代，尤是以华裔领袖居多的行动党，还以为可以瞒天过海，闪而不答，只要人民手中的选票以达成他们入布城的心愿！司马昭之心，该是时候向行动党说不！！
