Always there's the First Time...

Like a coy bride on the wedding night, someone has emerged to finally taste the sunshine -- or misty dust! -- of going public with a Comment.

From within the safe borders of NegaraKu, the New Straits Times, April 20, 2007 page 6:

Najib to respond to accusations

BATANG BERJUNTAI: Deputy Prime Minister
Datuk Seri Najib Razak said that he would not
take lying down accustions hurled against him
by the opposition in the Ijok buy-erection -- Oops, Desi's typo! by-election -- campaign.

He said he would respond to the personal
attacks to the fullest extent possible.

"However, I will only do what I think is right in
the context of the law as we don't want to do
something against the law."

DESIDERATA:
The highlights and any typos (THUS BOLDED)
are awe Desi's, not NST's, not yours, all mine. But the comments that follow are mine, knotty Desi's.

Wow, the DPM is actually emphasising "the law".
How about MB of Selangor Khir Toyo announcing big bucks for
Ijok residents just tailored to the Ijok buy-election. Not
infringment of the Elections law?
Also at the recently-ended Machap buy-election, BN leaders handing out goodies, including media reported/recorded of angpows of RM100-200 given out to "voters"-- Not infringing any Law, Mr DPM?
Also MCA leaders giving out RM20 for each Karaoke song belted out,
and angpowed in, not breaking the Spirit of The Law, Mr DPM?

Ah, mGf from Ipoh aweOfhelen says it's two sets of laws -- one for Barisan leaders, another for you folks out there, somewhere, so LOST, CONFUSED, MASOCHISTIC?

ADVICE by Desi to IJOK ELECTORATE:

Take the blardy money!

(it's actually the Rakyat's anyway via our tax dollars!);
VOTE PKR!

Desi giveth thee another version, the full extract, from across the border:


The Straits Times

FOR months, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak had kept mum while rumours flew over his alleged links to the case of a Mongolian model who was killed in Malaysia.

But for the second time in the past two days, he has said he has nothing to do with the case and has no fear because he has nothing to hide.

The gruesome murder of part-time model Altantuya Shaariibuu is still the talk of the town. Razak Baginda, her former lover and an adviser to Datuk Seri Najib, has been charged with abetting in the murder. Two policemen face murder charges. The case will be heard in June.

Opposition politician Anwar Ibrahim has alleged a political cover-up.

Asked about this, Datuk Seri Najib said yesterday: 'It is okay...We are not afraid.'

He said he retained the option to sue Datuk Seri Anwar, but wanted to let the law take its course in the courts first. He also said he could not give a more detailed answer as the case had not been heard yet.

He said on Wednesday that he was not afraid because the police, the Attorney-General and Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi all knew the truth about the case.

He also warned Datuk Seri Anwar: 'Do not try to lie to the public on this issue. Do not play dirty politics.'

Speaking to Barisan Nasional party workers, he said he had never before touched on Datuk Seri Anwar's personal matters. 'If I want to talk, I can. However, I do not want to embarrass him.'

An aide said the minister broke his long silence after weighing carefully what he could and could not say, as the case was pending in the courts.

The opposition had harped on the Altantuya case in the Machap by-election in Malacca that ended last week, and is expected to continue pursuing the issue in the upcoming Ijok by-election in Selangor.

At lunch-break, I had more leisure time to digest the news -- also the capitalistic food-lah, consisting of Ngau-yook Hor Fun!-- and a commentary in the NST caught my eyes.

Sahre some morsels with thee jest to whet thy APpetite; for aMore, please don't be kedekut-lah -- invest RM1.20 to help the MSM once a w'ile won't kill thee-what! -- page 7:

Tough task for BN as
Lunas memories loom


* Comment by
Wan Hamidi Hamid

SOME Parti Keadilan Rakyat
leaders are hoping to turn Ijok
into another Lunas, a rural
town constituency in Kedah
that witnessed a shocking by-
election defeat for Barisan Nasionl
six years ago.

The problem for PKR is that
Ijok does not seem to have all
the characteristics of Lunas.
Yes, BN leaders fear a repeat of
the debacle. particularly in
facing the emotional Malay
voters.

Ijok with 12, 272 voters is
made up of 51 per cent Malay
voters, Indians, 28 per cent
and Chinese, 20 per cent.

In Lunas six yewars ago,
Malays made up 43 per cent of
26,746 voters, Chinese 37 per cent and Indians, 19 per cent.

Edited Comment by zain osman follows:

"Anwar cannot fail. It will be an irony and despicable shame to us Malaysians and whatever little values we have left especially since the Mongolian was killed right next to Ijok. Biar miskin tapi benar, jangan sekali-kali jadi kaya dan pembunuh. Itu bukan adat Melayu. Cannot speak for the Indians and Chinese...for they will probably vote "sensibly and realistically". They will be happy as long as they get their money and development. But never true Malays. It is a disgrace Najib is even there... (Desi: EDITED OUT) "
