thesis essay for this semester


"mat rempit" issues require immediate and efficient approach

Slicing through the traffic in high speed, massive convoy ruling the streets and many more breath taking action done by “mat rempit”. It have haunting all of us since 1980’s. Since we didn’t stop them 20 years back, now they’ve outrun us. Recently, they dare to terrorize and snatched our citizen without having any guilt or shame. They’ve seems to be getting worst each days and that leaves our government counter measures outdated. Despite their criminal record acceleration they also have grow in number up to 200 000 people, mentioned Datuk Halimah binti Mohd Sadiqueby, on 24 JUN 2009 in Malaysia parliament. Hence, these issues should be addressed urgently by introducing an alternative strategy, reconsidering our law and impact approach.

The crime rate that over flood our statistics nowadays often linked to “mat rempit”, so there should be an appropriate solution to these criminal or so called “mat rempit”. Our policy today in criminal issues would be deterrence policing, but it have failed for 20 years. A well constructed policing like the “problem oriented policing” would be a breakthrough to “mat rempit” issues. This being proved by operation ceasefire using the “problem oriented policing” which been directed by Professor David M. Kennedy, Harvard professor that solely aimed to reduced reduce serious juvenile and gang violence in Boston have declined the gun assault by 70 percent in two years. Despite the policy revolution, our government should also re-examine the UN recommendation in criminal justice reform guidelines. This is because UN Congresses on Prevention of Crime and Treatment of Offenders is lined up by experts in criminologists, penologists, and senior police officers as well as experts in criminal law, human rights, and rehabilitation which could guide us into the right step in the right time.

Next, a cutting edge reforming law and punishment could take over the problem at the root. “mat rempit” is classified as social problem at first and turned into criminal problem. So reconsidering our law and punishment would be a catalysed in curbing “ mat rempit” problem. The punishment under road transport act 1987 is maximum rm5000 fine and 5 years of imprisonment. There are a lot of suggestions that we should amend this law for a better one. Taking a perfect example is changing it to remodel the civilian conservation corps introduced by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the great depression era. Imposing these can act as a program that reconstruct the mentality of “mat rempit” by having them living in camps, wore uniforms, and lived under quasi-military discipline. However a proper action should also be taken to those who support “mat rempit” by supplying racing parts or illegal parts for their motorcycle. Stopping the supply means stopping the buyers. When the parts are rarely found the number of “mat rempit” would be reduce vastly. As Khairy Jamaluddin mention in a tv programmed “called point of view” on ntv7, the solution in “mat rempit” issues is taking down the clan head down first. Thus, the remaining follower will vanished in a matter of time.

As a “finissage” or finishing of the steps taken to overcome “mat rempit” problem we could also have an impact approaches. These rebellious “mat rempit” is also a human. Which mean that they would response to the approaches of other human. Having them back into the society would be an impact to civilian for our own sake. “Beat the Heat” is a program introduced in south florida which drastically cut down the amount of drag racing on the Florida streets, while also fostering a better relationship between racers and officers. This is by having a monthly racing between the cops and civilian. In the same time they would be attracted to the drag strip rather than the streets. Such events would be a good way to approach those problematic “mat rempit”. After that we could try the Project E.R.A.S.E introduced by Ontario police. The primary goal is "To change poor driver behaviour through education and strategic enforcement." This can only be done to all of us by having critical approach. Some speech wouldn’t do the trick but we can try advertise it while the “beat the heat” like event. By having them more comfortable and not experiencing outrages pressure it could motivate “mat rempit” not to street racing. Education would be the best elixir in all problem including “mat rempit” issues.

At the end of the day, we can’t afford to have another people die in the hand of snatch thief or our children hit by these thugs. An immediate action should be taken addressed by our responsible body or this thing will just be the beginning of their era. Throughout research made by having alternative strategy that could reform our criminal justice policies, reconsidering our law as well our punishment and an impact approach towards “mat rempit”. Our so called solutions have failed to overcome their problem for twenty years. We can put a full stop to the long story since their existence in 1980’s if we act today. As we usually used phrases like “action speaks louder than word”, it’s about time to make this idea to be implemented.

PPSMI

i was in the middle of DR.J class when one of my former lecturer nicknamed mdm ju text me. i was shocked but pleased. here how it's sound.

"may i know your point of view regarding PPSMI which will be eliminated in 2012? what a dissapointing decision ever made i would say"

and i was replying this.

"it's not shocking the decision they take after the issues being opposed by many people. i guess democracy have shown us the demerits"

as i was sneaking into the shadows try to reply the text i couldn't say much as my ear are still catching DR.J lecture and my hand are typing it. it was a head jamming situation. so i just text that. however. fear no more. i have come out with my full view of PPSMI issues. please read the text below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PPSMI was originally designed to improve our student's english level and preparing them towards a higher level of education which is likely to be known taught in english. for example uitm that have been using english as it's interaction languange. there also number's of local university does the same. however as a student of uitm and first batch of PPSMI,i would say it was a failure in process and objective.

the learning process in english was quite difficult for the student's as there is no real transition time given. the sudden change in language have turn the table of learning upside down. these situation was faced by both teachers and student. as teachers didn't receive an ample time to actually trained their self to teach in english. when the teachers failed to deliver the knowledge. the student's can't actually receive the knowledge.

despite that my batch did quite well in the spm although it was hard as brick. bare in mind that if the pure science stream student's find it's challenging,the lower class stream will find it killing. they couldn't even perform at average level in english and when they was learning math and science in english they suffered a lot. if we going to say that we preparing them to university then we might could just rejecting them by making them failed enormously.

don't forget the people who living in the rural areas. the english language is considered as one of the hardest subject for them and yet with give them another two solid subject? this will bring the grade to the floor eventually. taking as example those natives people who can't even talk fluent in english and still sticking with their slang of the natives. when we pouring upon them knowledge using the language they can't fully understand,they can't fully show their true performance. the communication between teacher and natives student's also stiffening due to the slang problem as the teacher's might not understand what their student's asking.

the purpose of PPSMI is improving our english standards. but english is english. it's a language and not involving the term used in math and science. a lot of term used in math and science are special term used universally without language border. so the so called improving objective is something that i would say nonsense. it might decline the graph of math and science and inclined english graph. why do we need to sacrifice two things for one?

then they would say to prepare the students for higher levels of education. this look real deal to me. however the students selected to the university supposed to be the students who can think critically. there are alternatives of PPSMI regarding this objective,such as tightening up the requirement of university admission. i was shocked when there's so many of TESL students last semester failed to get band 4 in their muet. there must be something wrong in the selection isn't it?

the opposition also bring us the issue of defending our heritage language. it's not i'm on their side but they got a point there. language is just a medium of the knowledge. what vital in learning is the essence of learning. no matter in what language or slang. the basics idea must be there in the sutdents mind so they can accelerate their performance. furthermore if DR.M have introduced us the slogan "looking to the east". in the east we'll find japan at the end of asia. they didn't good in english generally but they are one of the leading G8 country.

as a conclusion. my view is PPSMI is a failure and should be abolished as this country is a democracy country and for the sake of our children future. but the whole system of our education system should be reconsider. perhaps we could harden up our syllabus in english at the primary school level, non examination oriented learning and tightening the admission requirement of higher education learning.

human right watch malaysia report 2009

Hopes that Malaysia's human rights climate would improve following elections in March 2008 proved unfounded. The ruling National Front coalition lost the two-thirds parliamentary majority it had enjoyed since Malaysia became independent in 1957 but was still in power at this writing. National Front leaders continue to insist that Malaysia's multiethnic society is too fragile to sustain genuine freedom of assembly and expression or full due process rights for all suspects.

The government continues to use outdated repressive laws and regulations to silence its critics and extend its rule. One such critic is former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, now leading the opposition coalition People's Alliance. In what was widely viewed as a politically motivated attempt to discredit him, police charged him with consensual sexual relations with a male aide in August 2008.

The People's Volunteer Corps, a largely volunteer paramilitary force, continues to commit abuses against undocumented migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers.

Detention without Charge or Trial

Malaysia uses the Internal Security Act (ISA) to indefinitely detain, without charge or trial, individuals deemed by officials to threaten Malaysia's national security. This includes not only individuals suspected of planning terrorist attacks, such as members of the militant Islamist groups Jemaah Islamiah and Darul Islam, but also individuals allegedly promoting ethnic or religious discord.

On December 13, 2007, after the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) organized a massive rally to draw attention to discrimination faced by Malaysia's Indian population, the government detained five of its leaders. In October 2008, the government declared Hindraf an illegal organization on the grounds that it constituted a "threat to public order and morality." As of late November 2008, the leaders remained in ISA custody.

On September 12, 2008, police detained three government critics under the ISA. Raja Petra Kumaruddin, founder and editor of Malaysia's most popular website MalaysiaToday, was originally detained for two years for insulting Islam but was freed on procedural grounds on October 7. The government is appealing the ruling. Authorities also detained opposition Democratic Action Party parliamentarian Teresa Kok for a week for involvement in "activities that may spark a religious dispute," and Tan Hoon Cheng, a Sin Chew Daily reporter, for 18 hours.

According to the Abolish ISA Movement (Gerakan Mansuhkan ISA), 64 individuals were in ISA detention as of October 2008.

Migrant Workers, Refugees, and Asylum Seekers

According to Malaysia's Immigration Department, there were 2.1 million documented migrants in Malaysia in November 2007. Undocumented migrants are estimated at over 400,000, some 150,000 of whom are refugees or asylum seekers.

As the Malaysian Immigration Act of 1959/1963 does not distinguish between undocumented migrant workers and refugees, all those without valid residency status are subject to arrest, detention, and deportation. The People's Volunteer Corps (RELA), numbering half a million members, is empowered by law to enter any premises and arrest "undesirable persons" and suspected undocumented migrants. No search or arrest warrants are necessary. During 2007, close to 60,000 migrants-including children-were arrested, imprisoned, or deported. Most migrant children are denied access to schools and some end up in exploitative forms of child labor.

In May and June 2008, migrants told Human Rights Watch researchers how RELA members abused them with impunity during detention and in the immigration detention centers where RELA is responsible for security. Abuses include physical assault, intimidation, forced entry into living quarters, extortion, theft, destruction of residency papers, and sexual abuse.

Testimonies from migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers deported from Malaysia to the Thai border indicate collusion between Malaysian immigration officials and human smuggling gangs who charge steep fees to facilitate deportees' return to Malaysia or back to Burma.

Cases of severe physical abuse of migrant domestic workers continue to be reported. In September 2008 a Malaysian employer forced an Indonesian domestic worker to drink boiling water. The criminal justice system has been slow to respond. A verdict in the case of Nirmala Bonat, burned and brutally beaten by her employer in 2004, was expected in late November 2008.

Many of the approximately 400,000 primarily Indonesian domestic workers in Malaysia experience withheld wages, forced confinement, and excessively long work hours without days off; some face physical and sexual abuse. Domestic workers are excluded from key provisions of Malaysia's 1955 Employment Act and their work permits tie them to a particular employer, making it difficult to report abuse for fear of deportation.

Freedom of Assembly and Police Abuse

Article 10 of Malaysia's constitution guarantees freedom of assembly, but the Police Act of 1967 severely restricts its exercise in practice. No more than four persons may assemble in public without a police license. Police are empowered to break up unlicensed demonstrations, arrest participants, and use force if orders to disperse are ignored. In January 2008 a peaceful protest organized by NGOs and opposition political parties targeting inflationary pressure resulted in 56 short detentions.

Excessive use of force at public demonstrations is one of the reasons that a May 2005 Royal Commission recommended the establishment of an Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission. No such commission has been created.

Freedom of Expression

An increasingly vibrant blogosphere and use of electronic media and communications are challenging longstanding restrictions on free expression, but authorities continue periodic crackdowns on dissent.

On August 25, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission ordered all 19 internet service providers to block MalaysiaToday, suggesting it published "libelous, defamatory and slanderous" material threatening public order. Postings had probed government activities the leadership apparently did not want exposed. The Malaysian cabinet overturned the closure order on September 11.

The broadly worded 1948 Sedition Act has been used to silence bloggers who express grievances against the government or who "promote feelings of ill will and hostility between" ethnic groups in Malaysia. In October 2008, Kamaruddin was put on trial for sedition for an article he wrote about a 2006 murder case.

The 1984 Printing Presses and Publications Act censors newspapers by requiring annual renewal of publishing licenses and by controlling production and distribution of foreign publications. The Home Affairs Ministry can restrict or ban a publication outright on several different vaguely defined grounds and no legal remedy or judicial review is available.

In September 2008 the ministry instructed three newspapers to "show cause" why their publication licenses should not be suspended or rescinded. Sin Chew Daily, a Chinese-language paper, had reported on allegedly sensitive issues affecting ethnic relations; The Sun, an English Daily, was cited for "manipulating and playing up numerous sensitive issues," and Suara Keadilan, the People's Justice Party internal publication, had claimed that an official became paralyzed after heart surgery.

Freedom of Religion

Islam is Malaysia's official state religion, but the constitution protects freedom of religion for all. Tensions periodically arise over whether Malaysia is a secular or religious state and over attempts to widen or restrict the jurisdiction of Sharia courts.

On August 9, 2008, some 300 protestors disrupted an open forum entitled "Conversion to Islam," sponsored by the Malaysian Bar Council. The protestors contended that non-Muslims had no right to discuss Islam. The forum addressed issues faced by families caught in jurisdictional disputes on matters such as civil marriage, divorce and custody battles, and burial rites.

Privacy

Section 377 of Malaysia's criminal code criminalizes "carnal intercourse against the order of nature," both consensual and non-consensual. Activists have urged Malaysian authorities to repeal provisions on consensual relations and replace the section on non-consensual sexual acts with a modern, gender-neutral law on rape.

Human Rights Defenders

The NGO community, the Malaysian bar, lawyers, journalists, and some opposition politicians actively defend human rights despite serious personal and professional risks. Police arrested and detained overnight eight activists including members of the bar and local non-governmental organizations during a December 2007 peaceful march to commemorate International Human Rights Day. Six of the eight went on trial in October 2008.

On January 6, 2008, police used water cannons to break up a vigil organized by the Abolish ISA movement. On September 26 and October 9, after more ISA arrests, police broke up additional candlelight vigils opposing the ISA. In the latter incident, police confiscated the camera of a newspaper reporter, one of 23 people temporarily detained after the vigil.

Key International Actors

Tension in the US-Malaysia relationship surfaced in 2008. While the US praised Malaysia as a regional counterterrorism leader, officials in August expressed concern over the filing of sodomy charges against Anwar Ibrahim, and in September summoned Ilango Karuppannan, the charge d'affaires at the Malaysian embassy, to protest Malaysia's crackdown on critics.

Lord Malloch-Brown, the UK's minister of state in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, said the UK had also spoken with Malaysian officials about the crackdown and had raised the issue with its EU partners and the Commonwealth Secretariat.

In a September address to the UN, Malaysian Foreign Minister Dr. Rais Yatim objected to interference in Malaysia's internal affairs.

Although the US Department of State's June 2008 "Trafficking in Persons Report" upgraded Malaysia's status from Tier 3 to Tier 2, US Senator Lugar expressed concern about continuing reports of trafficking of Burmese at the Thai-Malay border.

Malaysia has supported the creation of an ASEAN regional human rights mechanism, but in July 2008 Foreign Minister Yatim said that its standards should reflect the "ASEAN value system," hearkening back to the "Asian values" debate and the discredited notion that Asians value human rights less than others.

mat rempit-bahagian 1

introduksi

di dalam kancah kehidupan yang semakin haru biru manusia akan mula menunding jari dan membenci. disebabkan satu cetusan idea menghasilkan satu letupan paradigma seperti yang banyak berlaku hari ini.

apabila kita bercakap tentang sesuatu isu dan lebih lebih lagi dipamerkan ke khalayak ramai kita seharusnya mengkaji satu tajuk dengan akal fikiran dan bukan dengan mata dan telinga sahaja. mengapa? kerana mata bisa dibutakan,dan telinga boleh tersilap. lain pula dengan akal fikiran dimana kita boleh berfikir secara kritis,kreatif dan kritikal menggunakan pengetahuan dan naluri kemanusiaan.

ia mungkin menimbulkan kontroversi kerana setahu saya tidak ramai yang menyukai mat rempit. mengapa mereka membenci? mengapa mereka merempit? mengapa kita tidak pernah menang dalam isu menangani mat rempit? semua itu akan saya ulas sebaik baiknya. namun harus di ingat saya bukanlah sempurna.

asal usul mat rempit

kita mulakan dengan apakah itu mat rempit? mat rempit merupakan satu nama panggilan terhadap individu atau kumpulan yang terlibat dalam aksi lumba haram atau aksi lain yang membahayakan pengguna jalan raya yang lain. secara teori tiada sebab musabab atau penjelasan teperinci tentang mana asalnya nama mat rempit. satu satu sumber yang sah dan kukuh adalah dari kamus dewan yang memberi maksud.

"rempit adalah menyebat dengan rotan"(kamus dewan,dewan bahasa dan pustaka)

jadi dimanakah datangnya nama mat rempit? ada yang melibatkan ianya dengan bunyi motor yang di pulas minyaknya. ada juga yang mengatakan mirip bunyi motosikal 2 lejang model yamaha rxz 135. mungkin ada mirip sedikit.

faktor kelahiran mat rempit

kita teruskan kupasan dengan soalan kedua. apakah faktor menyumbang kepada gejala mat rempit? tekanan emosi,pengaruh media dan kurang didikan dan pengekangan. itulah antara faktor utama yang membenihkan mat rempit.

tekanan emosi mungkin datang dari pelbagai sudut dengan pelbagai rupa. misalan seorang mat rempit di felda kesempitan wang dan dari hasil merempit mereka mungkin dapat wang dan secara relatifnya mengurangkan tekanan. bagaimana aksi liar dan merbahaya mengurangkan tekanan? apabila kita dihadapkan dengan situasi merbahaya bendalir adrenalin akan dihasilkan dimana kita akan bertindak lebih pantas dan lebih peka. ketika kita dalam keadaan tersebut kita akan mempunyai peluang yang tinggi untuk melupakan segala permasalahan yang terbendung di dalam minda. dan saya percaya kerana inilah mat rempit gemar aksi merbahaya. ini kerana kajian yang dijalankan oleh saya sendiri terhadap 50 orang mat rempit,40 orang menyatakan keseronokan dalam aksi merbahaya dan berjaya melupakan masalah yang membelenggu mereka dalam sesi perbualan untuk kajian tersebut.

pengaruh media juga memainkan peranan penting. dengan wujudnya filem seperti remp-it,bohsia dan kl menjerit. remaja yang masih hingusan menjadi teruja dan ingin mencuba. bukanlah ingin disalahkan pengeluar filem. ya. niat mereka baik kerana didalam setiap cerita ada sahaja pengajaran berguna. namun di ingatkan remaja bukanlah jenis mengambil pengajaran dari filem. mereka lebih kepada meniru aksi dan gaya dalam sesebuah filem. jadi kita sebenarnya tersalah mengambil langkah menginsafkan mat rempit, sebaliknya kita mula melahirkan generasi baru mat rempit secara tidak sengaja.

kemudian,kebanyakan dari mat rempit adalah golongan kurang intelek atau berpendidikan. cuma 11 peratus dari mereka yang ke IPTA(kajian UKM). secara natural mereka yang kurang pendidikan akan lebih terdorong menimbulkan masalah sosial atau jenayah. akan tetapi mengapa mereka memilih untuk merempit daripada merompak dan merogol? ini kerana kelongaran didalam pemantauan ibu bapa dan tindakan memberikan mereka motorsikal berkuasa sederhana menjadikan mereka lebih tertarik ke arah merempit. setelah mereka berjaya dalam merempit,kebosanan akan timbul. lalu dari situlah mereka mula menjinakkan diri dalam jenayah seperti ragut.

banyak antara kita tidak sedar akan faktor penghasilan mat rempit kerana kita lebih ke arah menangani gejala mat rempit. mengapa? kerana kita semua manusia lebih ramai yang memikirkan tentang penyelesaian dari penyebab. sebelum kita mampu berurusan dengan masalah yang semakin menghantui kita,seharusnya kita mengambil langkah lebih efisyen dengan mencegah dari mengubati. apabila kita berjaya mengatasi faktor seperti pengaruh media,pendidikan dan pengekangan secara signifikan gejala sosial ini akan menurun secara beperingkat.

namun begitu kita tersilap langkah dengan memerangi mereka. satu blog sukan pemotoran antarabangsa yang enggan dikaitkan dengan artikel saya menyebut. "they(mat rempit) needs a balanced approach". dan satu lagi artikel dari satumalaysia.wordpress.com menyatakan. "Jiwa Mat Rempit begitu keras. Oleh itu, pendekatan yang keras pasti gagal. Benda keras berlanggar dengan benda keras akan pecah. Pendekatan lembut tetapi sesuai amat mustahak." nah. kita sudah nampak disitu akan harusnya pendekatan yang komprhensif berbanding agresif. tetapi mengapa kita mesti bertindak agresif? kerana secara logiknya tindakan spontan yang agresif bakal melegakan hati manusia buat sementara waktu. jika kita tergolong dalam golongan yang sebegitu,jelaslah bahawa kita bukan ingin membanteras isu mat rempit secara total tetapi memuaskan nafsu dan dendam sendiri.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

tamat bahagian satu yang mengupas asal usul mat rempit.
bahagian dua akan melihat situasi daripada pandangan mat rempit sendiri.
bahagian tiga akan melihat situasi daripada pandangan orang ramai.
bahagian empat akan melihat cara menyelesaikan isu mat rempit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

didalam menghasilkan artikel ini ingin saya mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih terhadap:

-Mazidul Akmal Sidek(penerbit eksekutif tv3)
-Kamal Affendi Hashim(penganalisi jenayah)
-Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia(IPTA)
-Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka
-satumalaysia.wordpress.com

dan mana mana pihak yang terlibat secara langsung atau tidak langsung. saya mungkin menggunakan beberapa idea atau isi penting tentang isu mat rempit untuk menghasilkan artikel ini. harap maaf jika gagal mendapatkan kebenaran.

sila komen kerana artikel ini adalah satu kerangka dalam penulisan thesis saya. terima kasih.

discrimination

i wonder. why if i'm driving bmw i didn't even stop at any roadblock. but if i'm riding 125zr i must be detained. it's as simple as first sight on what your riding and it's value. nowadays enforcer of law is getting worst. the last tv show at 999, a high rank officer said that he don't care what your in but if you breaking the law then you have to face the law. is it? or it just your own illusion sir?

the situation is why must motorist must be blame for issues like snatching and other crime. it's not everyone that ride on the bike done that. why? simply because the criminal frequently using the bike as a medium of crime because it cheap and easy to get away. but most of the riders out there just ordinary people who deserve the same like others.

sometime motorist always being blame for everything. but if we're in the car. the scenario is changed suddenly. i always drive any car in dangerous method but never get cought. but if i ride the bike in the same manners then i am called mat rempit or even worst a criminal. what is happening here is a simple streotyping by people who always been feed with the news regarding bike crime.

why don't we blame the car driver? i don't know. to see the different try on federal highway to kl road. then you see if a car can change lane in high speed without giving any signal then people will say "setan betol,eksiden baru taw", but if a motorist did that then people will tend to say "pukimak punyer rempit mampus lagi bagus". here again. why does we must called them mat rempit? does eveyone on a fast and dangerous bike mat rempit? later on if we see superbike doing the same thing we will say "pergh lawa motor". what is happening?

we small rider always being discriminate. and ways to resist it is just by "resistance". but until when? the conclusion is the people minds. if we all set in our mind small motorist is the criminal then it is. but if we change it. it doesn't. way of thinking have put the law into something too rigid to us,motorist. and by simple logic. we could think. "rigid is meant to be broken". the rigid the law the more the criminal. you'll see what i'm saying soon.

chin peng


saya terpanggil untuk mengulas isu kepulangan chin peng. ini mungkin kerana saya terhidu isu sentimen,sensitiviti dan juga politik. kini sudah reda isu ini jadi inilah masanya untuk saya mengutarakan pendapat kerana jika perkara ini masih hangat mungkin juga saya bakal dipandang serong atau lebih teruk lagi. bermula pada era jepun parti komunis malaya telah begitu banyak memberikan tentangan kepada jepun. dahulunya kita begitu menyokong mana mana pergerakan menentang penjajah. namun indah khabar dari rupa. apabila berakhirnya zaman jepun kita telah diperlihatkan kekejaman parti komunis malaya yang akhirnya melarat menjadi duri dalam daging dek kerana kita sukar membezakan mereka dari orang biasa. mereka juga rakyat malaysia,rambut sama warna tetapi hati lain lain.siapa yang menyangka salah satu gerakan patriot telah menjadi gerakan radikal yang cukup ganas. bertahun lamanya kita melancarkan perang secara psikologi dan bersenjata. akhirnya tumpas juga mereka. itulah antara sedikit rentetan perjalanan putih menjadi hitam,baik menjadi jahat.

kini setelah berpuluh tahun chin peng kembali. bukan dengan menghidupkan kembali komunis tetapi hanya ingin kembali menghirup udara segar di kampung halaman. mungkin ramai yang menentang kepulangan beliau kerana tindakan beliau yang telah mengorbankan begitu banyak nyawa nenek moyang kita. akan tetapi cuba lihat dari perspektif positif di luar kotak mentaliti normal. ramai yang berkata "apa untung bawa dia balik?". memang tiada untung tetapi jika kita terbalikan soalan tersebut "apa ruginya bawa dia pulang?". nah. disitu kita terdiam. kita tidak rugi apa apa jadi mengapa kita perlu mengekang kemasukan semula beliau? mungkin kita tidak sedar yang beliau mungkin telah insaf. tetapi keinsafan tidak cukup untuk masyarakat malaysia yang secara umumnya membenci beliau. hukuman di malaysia lebih kepada pembalasan daripada pengajaran. jika benar kita rakyat malaysia mempunyai nilai murni yang tinggi. mengapa kita berdendam? pikirkan. mengapa kita tidak membenarkan dia pulang dan mengambil tindakan akan dosa lampau beliau? bukankah lebih baik jika kita bawa beliau pulang? kerana selagi beliau di luar negara beliau tidak akan mendapat hukuman yang setimpal. namun mengapa kita menolak? kerana takut kembali tertubuhnya semula komunis. dakwaan ini langsung tidak masuk akal kerana rakyat majmuk kini sudah terdidik dengan silibus sejarah tingkatan 5 yang jelas jelas menghasut minda muda membenci komunis. apa lagi yang kita mahukan? tindakan takutkan komunis kini tidak lebih dari takutkan bayang bayang sendiri. jika kita mampu menumpaskan komunis dizaman komunis megah mengapa kita tidak mampu menumpaskannya kini? kerana kita senantiasa inginkan perkara yang mudah dengan tidak mengambil risiko sedadngkan kita lupa kita maju hari ini kerana susah payah di hari dulu.

secara konklusinya saya menyokong kepulangan chin peng kerana beliau perlu dihadapkan kemuka pengadilan. dan jika beliau benar insaf beliau akan terima dengan tangan terbuka begitu juga dengan kita. namun kita tidak mampu melakukan kerana kita(rakyat malaysia) tidak mampu melihat perkara yang tersirat dan tersurat disebabkan pemikiran streokospik. renungkan semula. kita pasti menyokong kepulangan beliau.

*secara peribadi. ideologi komunis adalah cukup bagus sebenarnya. tetapi bagi malaysia yang terdiri dari berbilang kaum. komunisme bukanlah pilihan terbaik kerana terdapat sensitivi yang perlu diambil kira. ingatkan diri kita russia,china,dan korea utara merupakan contoh bekas komunis yang berjaya. mereka mencedok ilmu luar dan sendiri untuk menjadikan negara mereka antara yang digeruni kini. selepas tumbangnya ussr kini mereka kembali dengan pengajaran yang membina. kita juga sama. bangun selepas jatuh. sedar setelah sesal. :)

breaking the block inside blog

blogging todays had turned into a new media inside the new world. it is a free streaming media which may contain what ever stuff that the writer tends to write. it was one source that can be daoubt the genuity of the writings. but as the world fast pace todays had turned this kind of media to spread worldwide fast. basically a blog may contain personal diaries or even latest news. it's all depends on the writer how the flow will go. brand new stream had taken over the youngster that might get bored with main stream media as the media is regulated under some kind of freak from the government which tends to say that "it's for our internal peace".
however as Raja Petra had said in one of his interview. our people are now more developed than back then. we can tolerate and understand whatever message that the bloggers try to delivered. and as he said. mei the 13 wont be happening because of any blog. but my view mei 13 can be repeated due to the rigidity of rules by government that oppressed the citizen to become more aggressive. try read my rigidity cause revolutions article.

back to the topic. breaking the block refer to breaking the habist of non-bloggers from mis-viewing any blog. some blog may become too aggressive and too soft. some might be a lie and some might be a truth. however. what we all know, blog is a private media that streams our own thinking or agenda to the outside world. it's up to the readers to receive the message or not. what can they do? anylze what ever that is written before jumping into believes or conclusions. as this is basic things to do when you get an article no matter where it come from. precautions should be taken as some people have their own agenda try to pursuade people in their
missions which may bring harm towards others. so it is the readers responsibility to differentiate what is true and what is wrong. what can we do to determine it stiffness of statement? googled more and more. that's how i do it. but always bare in mind. "different colours made by different mind".

then some of closed minded people claimed that bloggers tend to say out loud but act silent. probably it was true as many of the bloggers didn't really stand their stand inside the blog outside the blog. why? this may due to unstability of outside world. let say why do the politics people use blog for campaign? because what others can do is read and it's up to them to receive it or deny. but if they say it out loud they will be possiblity of assault or riot which may cause chaos. that is why many bloggers tend to write what on the inside of their mind rather speaking. remember old saying "action speaks luder". but there also another old saying that
"writings sharper than sword". see? the writing is a nother kind of weapon used. if it was on the right hand. it could kill someone on the inside thus hurting them on the outside. as what malaysia police view. "blog now have become a threat". yes. it is true because blog contain no tolerant as it speaks directly from the bottom of the heart.

it's not that we blogger throw a stone and then hide. what we did is throw an idea of our own for others to view it. and it's up to them. everything is on the readers hand. what we bloggers write have no concern on others as it is a private blog. and please remember in wikipedia said that "Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries." so? it is an diaries of bloggers. and diaries always tell a story on one side which is the bloggers. and different blog carry different stories. thus it is totally private and no one should say anything about any blog. it is our right to speak.
it is a democracy world out there right? so write it out.
