Perak Peril is no Thrill

I write this post with full disappointment after knowing about the collapse of the Pakatan Rakyat-led Perak Government today. Indeed, I am in full support of an anti-hopping provision in the Federal Constitution to avoid such betrayal of the people’s democratic right in future.

I now know how important it is to have such provision, and how disgusting some of our politicians can be today. But again, with my limited knowledge of what is going on, I might be biased.

I believe the Sultan of Perak has his reasons not to dissolve the state assembly. But indeed, maafkan patik Tuanku, with fullest respect to Tuanku, I am puzzled with Tuanku’s decision.

There is nothing much to say for now, but a poem.

The people’s power WAS in the ballot box,

because they VOTED out of the box;

Four people betrayed the box;

there is no more………

P/S: The author realises his limitation as a citizen, and is not sure whether his vote makes a difference after all. He is terribly disappointed.

Winson is arrested under draconian ISA till Nov 13

Dear readers and friends,

Winson Lee has been arrested under ISA until November 13. He is arrested under Internal Study Act 2008, for wanting to topple the IB government.

At time of press, he still has 43 days to his final IB exams. 43 seems like a lot, but please do not be fooled because there are SIX subjects to be revised, studied, understood, memorised! He has self-imposed November 13 as a deadline for his government-toppling act.

He is putting himself on self-imposed ISA, and thus has to refrain from blogging or have any life until November 13. November 14 will be the day of reckoning because it is post-IB!!!! The “Pakatan Rakyat Selepas IB” government will be in power!!!

*To put this into record, yes, he is aiming for a very high score in IB, God-willing, high enough to allow him to enter those unis he is applying for. Oxford is one.

He is super excited to start studying. It has never dawned on him before that studying is so exciting. He means it seriously, no joke! Studying for SPM was dull, but studying for IB is mega mega exciting. 43 days left, 6 subjects, RM50000++ k at stake, Oxford MIT Princeton Stanford at stake, his entire student career is banking on this exam.

Even if Datuk Seri Anwar takes over as PM of Malaysia, Winson cannot be bothered because IB exam is more important. He will talk about Malaysian politics after November 13, when the government of IB is toppled by Opposition Leader Winson Lee. That time, all IB parlimentarians will be defecting to “Pakatan Rakyat Selepas IB”, he will call for a vote of no confidence against the IB Prime Minister Mr Jonathan Shaw.

He will then form his “Pakatan Rakyat Selepas IB” government with his computer minister Nathaniel, who will get him a new computer, and his trade ministers Jonathan and Riza, who will assist him in starting up a online T-shirt business. He hopes his ministers will not swap portfolio with him, nor resign due to unfulfilled reforms. Winson believes in working with his component parties ALEEMAH to bring a better future.

No more corruption.

One excited Winson supporter was quoted, “Winson will be arrested under the ISA until Nov 13, where on November 14 he will form the new government of Pakatan Rakyat Selepas IB. Reformasi!!!”
