Breaking my HI-atus second time, Cos the times-they-are-a-Changing!

And with once-mighty Blogger has changed so much in the past year, and even earlier, thatmany fellow bloggers could not recognise him at all. This blogger with royal blood who many Reformasi followers admired once-upon-a-time, has let many of us down. I termed it that "RPK has SOUL'D OUT!"

I had emnaged in a long-running FACE-OFF with this fellow -- he aided by many u7nthinking fans who dared not use their real IDs like hawkeye, whisperer -- horse or backside, I dunno and I don't care! etec, ad nauseum -- and I expect them to surface again like dirty flotsam after muddying with baffaloes and cows -- from Wanita UMNO thief Sharrizat and family's NFC? --after TOMORROW.

My year-end plan was I wanted to use a post from wfauzdin.blogspot.com after I spent time translating it from BM to English, but today's NST frontpage blurb made Desi NOT TO LINGER but take action immediately to anticipate what the blogger-in-luxurious-exile in the UK plans to do on behalf of the scheming UMNO mainstream media ...But times-they-are-a-Changing -- and RPK the changer is about to strike again against the RAKYAT who are now campaigning intensely for ABU in the leadup to GE13 -- Anyone But UMNO/Asalkan Bukan UMNO!

The NST blurb reads:

Raja Petra on
Anwar and the
future of the
opposition

MENJELANG PRU 13 - HATI-HATI DENGAN RAJA PETRA

Oleh: WFAUZDIN NS

RAJA Petra Kamarudin, Pengendali Malaysia-Today sebelum ini banyak mengulas isu dalaman parti di dalam Pakatan Rakyat. Beliau ada mengulas isu Dr Hassan Ali, kemudiannya mendakwa Parti Keadilan kini dicengkam oleh Anwar - Azmin dan terbaru beliau mengulas isu Nurul Izzah yang ingin mengenepikan Azmin untuk kembali membawa Zaid Ibrahim ke dalam parti. Baca di SINI.

Hati-hati dengan orang ini...

Kita mengenali Raja Petra sebelum ini kononnya beliau berfikiran sehaluan dengan Pakatan Rakyat, tetapi kita jangan lupa Raja Petra pernah muncul di kaca TV memburukkan DS Anwar. Kali ini, apa agenda Raja Petra? Di saat rakyat sedang menyaksikan Umno bertungkus lumus dan bersilang tangan menepis berbagai dakwaan rasuah dan penyelewengan di kalangan pemimpin mereka, Raja Petra sibuk dengan membicarakan isu dalaman parti di dalam Pakatan Rakyat. Jika dakwaan beliau itu benar atau setidak-tidaknya masuk akal boleh juga diterima, malangnya segala yang di utarakan oleh Raja Petra umpama cerita dongeng yang baru siap dikarang.

Zaid tiada tempat dalam Keadilan lagi....

Kembali kita berfikir, apakah Raja Petra akan berperanan untuk melemahkan Pakatan Rakyat melalui persepsi ciptaan beliau itu? Ada lojiknya kerana sejak kebelakangan ini beliau begitu ghairah menulis tentang Azmin Ali. Dakwaan bahawa Nurul Izzah akan menggunakan pengaruhnya sebagai Naib Presiden juga anak kepada DS Anwar untuk membawa kembali Zaid Ibrahim ke dalam parti adalah `Bidaah' paling melucukan. Terlalu bodoh Nurul Izzah jika berbuat demikian kerana beliau sedar Zaid Ibrahim telah `kencing' kepala bapanya DS Anwar Ibrahim.

Nurul Izzah disokong bukan kerana beliau anak Anwar

Seandainya benar sekali pun, ahli-ahli Keadilan tidak akan sanggup menerima pengkhianat parti seperti Zaid Ibrahim yang keluar parti hanya kerana tidak mendapat sokongan di dalam jawatan yang diidamkannya. Keadilan akan menempah maut jika membawa masuk Zaid Ibrahim kerana kemasukan Zaid ke dalam parti akan menjadikan Keadilan nanti seperti Parti KITA yang kini beliau pimpin. Majoriti ahli parti akan menolak Nurul Izzah dari jawatannya sekarang jika beliau mempunyai angan-angan untuk membawa Zaid Ibrahim.

Mengapa Raja Petra `Anti-Azmin' ?

Menolak Zaid Ibrahim bukan bererti kita menyokong Azmin atau membenci Nurul Izzah, tetapi jelas, terang dan terbukti Zaid Ibrahim telah `kencing' kita semua. Apa yang perlu difikirkan sekarang adalah `Apakah Motif Raja Petra?" ./wfauzdin.blogspot.com


DESIDERATA:

I eagerly await RPK's interview tomorrow, but based on precedent interview with TV3 some time ago (before the Sarawak State Elections if I recall correctly...), this ertswhile socalled fighter-for-change in government in Putrajaya will now "gostan" again and throw bricks and stones and all sorts of rubbish at the Oppoistion front in Pakatan Rakyat, and especially Opposition Leader DS Anwar Ibrahim -- who likely faces imprisonment on January 9, 2012 -- without any shame and his famous fictional stories and flipflop stances since helming the socalled MCLM and wanting to nominate candidates to stand on PR component parties' tickets. A on-yearold-infant wanting to play fatherly role to 50-plus years DAP and PAS and slightly more than a decade-old Parti Keadilan Rakyat. The Chinese has a saying: "I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice!" into RPK's face, his lietenant Haris Ibrahim's too. The English equivalent is "RPK (and Haris2), Don't teach your grandpa to suck eggs!"

PS: I will pick up an earlier post on what I think of the famous/cowardly/lying/notorious blogger....Patience OK!

I reprise one of my Face-Off with RPK posts at this blog from almost a year-ago:-

YL Chong says: 'RPK, You are a liar and a coward'

To put into CONTEXT the subject at hand, I recap, from my own "relevant" posts here (including TYPOS and all) as follows, with only the relevant extracts I wish to focus on:

FOR THE RECORD wrt to RPK's highly inaccurate acusations of Desi

I had sent off an email just past midnight to raja petra kamarudin and/or web admin of malaysia-today.net to straighten out "totally false and inaccurate" points about my role by RPK in his latest column. I don't look for fights with anyone -- I believe in civil engagement with fellow writers and readers/commenters whether here or at certain, very selective websites I read.

Following is the official email I sent FOR THE RECORD:

_______________________________________________

Below is what YL Chong wrote about me. It appears like he is going out of his way to try to bring me down for whatever reason only he knows. I don’t know what I did to him to make him so full of vile. Anyway, if it is a fight he wants then it is a fight he is going to get.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Raja Petra Kamarudin

Maybe YL Chong has forgotten that when he got his hands on those Official Secrets Act documents from the MACC regarding the investigation of Khir Toyo and other matters his portal, Malaysia Chronicle, was too scared to run the story.

Chong then contacted me and I agreed for Malaysia Today to run it while assuring him I would protect the source of the documents -- which was Malaysia Chronicle and himself.

Anyhow, now he and Malaysia Chronicle have declared war on me and have decided to fight dirty and take no prisoners. In that case, since they have decided on the rules of engagement, I am only too happy to take them on...


_______________________________

I'm reprising only the above paragraphs, and if I need to comment further on other parts of your post, I reserve the right to, and I will keep malaysia-today.net posted CC malaysia chroniclesince you have made allegations that I had acted on behalf of malaysia chronicle.

My reply FOR THE RECORD:

WRT: "Maybe YL Chong has forgotten that when he got his hands on those Official Secrets Act documents from the MACC regarding the investigation of Khir Toyo and other matters his portal, Malaysia Chronicle, was too scared to run the story."

How can I forget something that I never did with respect to your reported OSA incident?


WRT: "Chong then contacted me and I agreed for Malaysia Today to run it while assuring him I would protect the source of the documents -- which was Malaysia Chronicle and himself."

WHEN HAD I EVER CONTACTED YOU regarding following up on "documents" -- I had never received any documents I had to refer to you RPK!



WRT: "Anyhow, now he and Malaysia Chronicle have declared war on me and have decided to fight dirty and take no prisoners. .."
I thought we bloggers read each other's writings and have the right to exchange views based on the principle of "Let's be agreeable in our disagreement."

Signing off: YL Chong, Desi

FOR THE RECORD 2: I have just sent RPK an email demanding a retraction of an offending article he published ...

PLUS A PUBLIC APOLOGY WITHIN THE NEXT TWO DAYS.

____________________________________


Dear Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK), and webadmin of malaysia-today.net:

I further refer to your posting of my response to RPK's FALSE ALLEGATIONS against me (relating my personal role and also my role on behalf of malaysia-chronicle.com...), the article of which was subsequently also published by the New Straits Times (NST).

I waited a few days to see if you would retract these false allegations against me and to tender a PUBLIC APOLOGY to me, but thus far,I did not sight any.

From now about 2.40PM Monday January 3, 2011, I am giving you notice to RETRACT THE SAID OFFENDNG ARTICLE and TENDER A PUBLIC APOLOGY TO ME, in both your web portal, as well as in the NST, WITHIN THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

Your failure to abide by my request may see legal action being taken against you -- and/or other parties lending weight to spreading such allegations flowing from your offending article against me.

YL Chong, Desi

*****************************************

MY CURRENT VIEWS FOLLOW NOW:

My dear readers, NOTE THAT THE HIGHLIGHTED PORTIONS ARE MY REBUTTALS TO RPK'S FALSE ALLEGATIONS WHICH HE HAD TODATE NEVER RESPONDED TO!


After a few days of waiting for a response from RPK, and there was none that I know of, I posted up the DEMAND for a RETRACTION of said allegations against me by RPK accompanied by a PUBLIC APOLOGY from him in my post dated January 3, 2011.


I am hence calling Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK) a "liar" because of the "false allegations" he made against me which I rebutted as HIGHLIGHTED above in my blogpost dated December 30, 2010 and his failure to provide evidence to his allegations means these allegations had been deliberately "manufactured" by RPK, and I believe, for sinister reasons, including getting me into trouble with the government authorities.

He's a "coward" for not being brave enough to admit "wrong" to making "false allegations" against a fellow Blogger who once held him in high esteem from his days as Director of "FreeAnwarCampaign"(FAC) going back more than a decade.Just by the way mention, in the early days of Reformasi, starting early Jan 2000, I was then News Editor at malaysiakini.com for a year, and hence followed writings at FAC regularly. (This esteem of RPK as an iconic blogger began to wane from mid-2010 after I noticed a "change of character" in him,highlighted in my article published by "Malaysia Chronicle" titled "Why is RPK acting so out of character?" dated October 14, 2010, also reprised at my blog on the same day.)

Back to the current issue: since the deadline for RPK to withdraw his false allegatons and tender a public apology has long passed, today I place on record that my opinion of him is that he has lost all credibility as a blogger, once hailed by many as a key fighter for a Better Malaysia.

I would like to now refresh RPK's mind that the last time I interacted with him was in Seremban at a candle-light vigil held to protest against the Internal Security Act at Dataran Seremban (which I am proud to state for the record I helped to co-organise for three consecutive Saturday evenings...) as recorded in my post Saturday, November 08, 2008 titled: "JUBILATION at Seremban Vigil Last Night!"

Soon after, RPK self-exiled himself to the United Kingdom -- enjoying the benefits of a writer living the high life, on donations from diehard fans? -- writing with lots of consistencies and contradictions (as contrasted with RPK's lieutenant in Malaysia, Haris Ibrahim's, at People's Parliament, on the MCLM for instance...) and in the past year, many readers including my own reading, RPK's no more championing the cause of a change in government at Putrajaya which he advocated for a long time, evidenced by his constant attacks on Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) the better part of 2010! Yes, now I deem him a coward for running away from NegaraKu -- for a real Malaysian fighter would return to the homeland to carry on the fight for a BetterMalaysia, not "and like many other Malaysians including an MCA Minister holding Australian PR, playing safe by having one foot here and another foot there!" I don't know IF a Chines saying is apt here: Having one leg in two boats?

So RPK's allegations against me could not hold water as the "alleged actions" by me were supposedly very recent i.e. in the course of last year (2010) and were in association with malaysia-chronicle.com which was only started by its founder-editor, Ms Wong Choon Mei, on June 1, 2010. And I was not, am not, a shareholder or staff at the online web portal.

What worries YL Chong more is also what some readers have commented about, is that malaysia-today.net editor had breached the ethics of secrecy by "exposing" whistle-blowers' identities, like mine just because we differed on several current issues. Worse yet, how can anyone trust RPK anymore when he's capable of cooking stories up and he had indeed threatened to do so to those who had passed on "classified government documents" to him in good faith but now stand the risk of being exposed just because of differences of opinion on issues that cropped up later. (In my case, the sin of RPK is compounded because the allegations against me were unfounded and false, and yet he "threatened" my safety with his unfounded allegations. I believe that bearing false witness against a fellowman is a "great sin" for Muslims, and I trust Raja Petra remains a follower of the Islamic faith, yes?)



Last, but not least, I was heartened to read from an anonymous reader at malaysia-chronicle.com who posted a comment on my "Demand for retraction of allegations and tender an apology from RPK", as many of his sentiments struck a chord with me, a freelance writer who has been a member of PKR since January 2005, and my writings are focused on committing my fight for the birth of a two party/coalition system. I will continue my quest to ensure Pakatan Rakyat's efforts to replace the 54-year-old Barisan Nasional government, undeterred by RPK's false stories about me.

I close by reproducing the said Commenter's views in full:

* Comment Link AN Monday, 03 January 2011 19:38 posted by AN

RPK is a ruthless liar. Many time what he wrote is absolutely rubbish lies. At one time he wrote about this Sarawakian Yb for Ngemah who got many wives and that he is running out of money so he jump back to BN. This are all lies as I'm a personal friend of the YB's family.
RPK, with the setting up of this MCLM shows he is a opportunist. He desperate wants attention after making the wrong move of going into exile to run away from all the false allegations he made against some top umnp guys.
RPK was at his best when he went to ISA and everyone treat him as their idol. But not now as he have shown his true colors by taking on PR to show that he is the kingmaker.He can't be what he think he want to be. He is just like you and me except that he have a Petra in his name.
RPK must not try to be the people's leader. We have Anwar and he is the true champion for all the people of malaysia. If RPK wants to steal that title with the help of Zaid, Jeffery or anyone else then he is absolute wrong. He will only earn the hatred of the people in Malaysia.
RPK must repent and come back to show he can contribute to the change of gov't and to make the road to Putrajaya smoother, not rougher.
RPK 's MT was a MUST read blog in those days when he was hot after the Altantuya's murder. All malaysian follow his posting 7/24.He make us all cry when he posted Anwar's daughter speech at UN, makes us all us when he posted 'Dear Pete', makes us all hate umno when he posted all the corruption in umno,particularly Khir Toyo broad daylight robbery of Selangor coffer.He was indeed my icon if not yours. But today I seldom visited his blog and to be honest I don't care much whether he survive or not.I have practically lost all interest in this man . I hope he just fade into sunset.
When he was in Kamunting I also help to keep his blog alive and entertaning by writing hilarious posting about Altantuya's murderer. I was so glue to MT that I could have die for MT.Even after the police raided my house and took away all my computers, I still adored RPK. I even took a doctored photo from Zorro's blog showing RPK been handcuffed and escorted by former IGP Musa Hassan, Najib and Badawi.That photo was placed right infront of my computer to act as a rallying point for me to blast umno/BN. The police took that best doctored photo away but I made another one.
But after the RPK fire die down, I'm back to earth and seeing my former idol belittling PR and using MCLM to open up another front, I lost all hopes in this man,RPK.
This will be my last criticism of RPK and I shall kept my hate in my heart and my mouth shut."
