Some 1500 protesters in Penang from Malaysian Coalition of Malay NGOs called on Malay rulers to revoke the citizenship of Malaysians who dispute Malay special rights and demanded safeguards to their special position as enshrined in the constitution.
Among them are 400 children.
Remember the controversy of JERIT where police was doing a great job stopping groups of riders and making a big fuss over 'the use of children in demonstration'? The same group that used children to demonstrate in KL called PEWARIS are now doing the same and again, without much controversy. PEWARIS is a group of pseudo NGO politicians from UMNO who are keen to beat up the sentiment of race in Malaysia. So, they can ride their bike and other people can't la?!
Maybe they will even get police escort as they join the 800 people crashing in on an opposition event.
Surely, you don't expect that it will end up peacefully with that number of people coming together.
Surely, the police will not issue a permit to PEWARIS as it is common sense that there is a risk. Especially a group that likes to burn things and put out banners that looks down on other race/ religion.
hahah....
Isu babi: NGO Melayu mahu serah memo pada Hadi
Jimadie Shah Othman Dec 29, 08 7:09pm
Tiga NGO berteraskan Melayu akan menghantar memorandum kepada Presiden PAS Datuk Seri Haji Abdul Hadi Awang malam ini berhubung isu penternakan babi di Melaka.Majlis Permuafakatan Ummah (Pewaris) akan mengepalai rombongan 800 penyokong yang turut terdiri daripada Gerakan Graduan Melayu Muda (GGMM) dan Persatuan Pengguna Islam (PPIM), untuk menyerahkan memorandum itu ketika presiden PAS itu menghadiri program anti-ISA di Stadium Bandar Baru Bangi malam ini.Mereka juga berhasrat untuk menyerahkan memorandum yang sama kepada penasihat PKR, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim malam ini.
Bagaimanapun, ketua pembangkang kini berada di luar negara.Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA (GMI) dan parti-parti pembangkang malam ini mengadakan Majlis pelancaran kempen mansuhkan Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA) yang gagal disempurnakan bulan lalu.Berbeza dengan program bulan lalu, kali ini pihak penganjurnya telah mendapatkan permit polis.Minggu lalu, empat replika babi yang dibuat daripada kertas, dibakar di perkarangan Hotel Samudera Resort Riverside, Masjid Tanah sebagai membantah perbuatan pihak tidak bertanggungjawab yang menggantung kepala babi pada kain rentang Pewaris.Timbalan presiden Pewaris, Rahimudin Md Harun dilaporkan berkata, tindakan membakar replika haiwan tersebut bertujuan mendesak kerajaan Melaka memindahkan kawasan ternakan haian itu ke kampung penduduk Cina.
Berbasikal serah memo
Beliau juga dilaporkan berkata, sekiranya isu tersebut tidak diselesaikan, pihaknya akan membawa satu replika babi ke perhimpunan Umno Mac depan.Di samping itu, katanya, Pewaris juga akan menuntut pemimpin PKR dan PAS supaya berusaha menghapuskan ternakan babi di kawasan berkenaan.Ketika dihubungi Malaysiakini, Rahimudin berkata, keputusan menyerahkan memorandum itu dibuat atas dasar kedua-dua pemimpin berkenaan merupakan "pemimpin Islam yang ada suara dan boleh mempengaruhi keputusan kerajaan".Selain itu, katanya, 30 orang akan berbasikal menghantar memorandum itu daripada Masjid Bandar Baru Bangi, tidak jauh daripada tempat pelancaran program anti-ISA itu.Rahamudin menafikan kehadiran mereka akan mengganggu majlis dan mencetuskan keadaan tidak tenang kerana perkara itu telah dimaklumkan terlebih dahulu melalui surat rasmi kepada kedua-dua tokoh pembangkang berkenaan."Hindraf (Barisan Bertindak Hak-hak Hindu) boleh hantar memorandum dalam majlis yang dihadiri 50,000 orang tidak ada apa-apa, majlis ini pun Insya-Allah (berlangsung aman). "Kita datang cara baik. Kita datang bukan hendak gaduh," katanya.
On Pig farming, the same Chief Minister of Malacca ( Ali Rustam) is gearing up to take up higher positions in UMNO. And suddenly, the pig issue crops up. This is the same issue that catapulated himself to be one of the warlords of UMNO. Such coincidence is pretty uncanny. But, take a look at the suffering that people need to go thru for his agenda to succeed. http://keberet.blogspot.com/2007/09/isu-babi-di-melaka-penternak-halang.html
Farmers running away from the house which was torched down. Reminds me of the armies who plunder and burn villagers. This was actually done by the Malaccan government.
On the pig carcass, my stand has always been that it is a huge insult and is meant to aggreviate the situation. Whoever who did this must be punished. The police have not completed its work and PEWARIS/ UTUSAN keep pointing the finger at the pig farmers. That would only make things worst. PEWARIS should not egg the emotions and take advantage of the situation. This again serve to remind us that NOT EVERYONE IN MALAYSIA IS THE SAME. Double standards rule!
