Datuk Shuhaimi Baba's latest film 'Tanda Putera' must be screened uncensored, Malay rights group Perkasa said today despite an uproar from Pakatan Rakyat (PR) leaders about the movie for allegedly portraying the Chinese community and DAP in a negative light in scenes depicting the May 13, 1969 race riots.
The award-winning director's controversial retelling about the administration of Malaysia's first two prime ministers amid the bloody May 13, 1969 race riots has been criticised by some PR politicians for its allegedly historically-innacurate depiction.
But Perkasa president Datuk Ibrahim Ali today backed Suhaimi, saying the film was historically accurate.
"The film is about history, even if the plot or scenes were controversial, we cannot change history and PR does not need to make that an issue," he told a news conference.
"We will negotiate and help Tanda Putera's film director to screen it without being it being censored," he added.
The independent MP for Pasir Mas rapped the PR opposition pact for claiming that the film could stoke racial tensions.
"Don't make this about party interests, this historical film must be screened for the people to remember and appreciate the country's peace and not just think negatively.
"I propose if PR still wants to make an issue out of this film, I will make a film about the opposition leader," Ibrahim said, referring to PKR's de facto chief, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
He did not say what such a film on Anwar would focus on, but Perkasa has been a vocal critic of the opposition leader.
Several film critics have accused the RM4.8 million movie — fully funded by the National Film Development Corporation (Finas) and the Multimedia Development Corporation (Mdec) — of demonising early leftist movements and more hero-worship than tribute to the country's second prime minister, the late Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, who was also father to the current PM, Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak.
The trailer for the movie is reported to show scenes of Chinese groups marching through the streets of Kuala Lumpur after the success of the opposition parties in municipal elections carrying the Labour Party flag and other banners proclaiming anti-Malay slogans.
The banners written in Chinese characters depicted slogans that translated into ‘Malays go back to the village’, ‘Malays go die’ and ‘Take revenge’.
There has also been unverified reports that the film also shows DAP leader Lim Kit Siang desecrating a Malaysian flag.
The film's release has been put off pending a review by the authorities.
Mutfi Juanda Jaya is also a traitor of islam, when he becomes a political tool mufti to Umno, hoping to be appointed chief mufti of Perak above mutfi Harussani. Juanda Jaya mufti, you better don’t spend time talking on political issue, concentrate on your religious teaching in the mosque that is what you appoint and paid for to do. statement by Perlis Mufti Dr Juanda Jaya, accusing those against the merger proposal as “traitors of Islam”.“The merger (between Umno and PAS) is in fact compulsory, particularly for the strength of Islam and Malaysia in general. All parties should make efforts in that direction,” the scholar was quoted as saying.about umno going after muslim leaders with fitnah and false acussation were you sleeping when all thiswere going on To join UMNO is to partake in corruption and its immoral ways. God does not create mankind for everyone to scorn and to be proud of your skin colour. Everyone should accept, share and educate the wrong to walk the right path. Utusan is encouraging Muslims (and Malays for that matter), to go astray.Umno,Utusan and the ulamaks are not fighting for Malay unity per se.They are running scared for their survival is fast fading away.Come GE 13,many will be jobless. You racists will never be able to compete with the others in this globalised world.Keep living under the coconut shell ! utusan and the people behind it? the owners are umno ..doesnt it mean anything if there cant try the soft way they use utusan to pressure pas..on the pretext of malay unity..? when people are doing well econimically, good edcuation with prosepct, human being treated with dignity ..people will support the government /53 years of abuse, corruption is bad enough..the worst is they get so arrogant . we are poorer, because of umno and b n using threats .enough is enough UMNO is extremist, self centred and racist. How can they join Pakatan Rakyat? Would the People accept them after all the evil that they did?? And how can moderate PAS the true Islamic Party join UMNO the Infidels?? Allah will not allow it to happen..
Former Malacca chief minister Tan Sri Abdul Rahim Tamby Chik stressed that he had ”national responsibility” to reveal who were involved in the sex act.like
113-year-old,Mehar raped by a close relative, repeatedly, over a course of a year, chooses not to talk about it. Until one day. She tells a friend. That friend has a similar story to share.
BACK IN 1994, THE THEN CHIEF MINISTER OF MALACCA, ABDUL RAHIM THAMBY CHIK, WAS REPORTED TO HAVE RAPED A 15-YEAR-OLD SCHOOLGIRL (UNDER MALAYSIAN LAW, SEX WITH A MINOR CONSTITUTES STATUTORY RAPE). LIM GUAN ENG, CURRENTLY THE CHIEF MINISTER OF PENANG AND THE THEN MP FOR KOTA MELAKA, SPOKE OUT AGAINST THE RAPE OF A MINOR AFTER THE GIRL’S GRANDMOTHER-CUM-GUARDIAN, WHO WAS ALSO LIM’S CONSTITUENT, TURNED TO HIM FOR HELP.
HOWEVER, FAR FROM DESERVING JUSTICE, BOTH LIM AND THE SCHOOLGIRL RECEIVED THEIR “DUES”. LIM WAS JAILED FOR THREE YEARS FOR SPEAKING UP AGAINST THE RAPE WHILE THE GIRL WAS GIVEN THREE YEARS “PROTECTIVE CUSTODY”. AS FOR RAHIM, BECAUSE OF THE RAPE AND PENDING CORRUPTION CHARGES, HE WAS FORCED TO RESIGN, AFTER A 12-YEAR STINT AS MALACCA’S CHIEF MINISTER.
BUT THE JUDICIARY SAW RAHIM ESCAPE PUNISHMENT FOR A CRIME COMMITTED; THIS CAME ABOUT AFTER THE PUBLIC PROSECUTOR WITHDREW THE CHARGE CITING LACK OF EVIDENCE. THE CORRUPTION CHARGES AGAINST RAHIM WERE ALSO DROPPED
BY NOW, MOST OF US ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE STORY OF THE 11-YEAR-OLD GIRL WHO WAS RAPED BY 19 YOUNG MEN. THE STORY GETS WORSE: THIS LITTLE GIRL, WHO WAS GANG-RAPED, HAS BECOME THE TARGET OF VICTIM BLAMING. A TV ANCHOR QUOTED ONE OF THE RAPISTS, WHO DEFENDED HIMSELF BY SAYING, “SHE LOOKED OLDER THAN 11.”
THEN CAME A STATEMENT FROM THE VICTIM’S FATHER, WHO SAID, “SHE MAY LOOK OLDER THAN 11, BUT SHE STILL HAS THE MIND OF A CHILD.”
IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER WHAT HER FATHER SAID, BECAUSE HE SHOULDN’T HAVE HAD TO BE ON THE DEFENSIVE. I STILL CANNOT FATHOM HOW THESE MEN COULD EVEN ATTEMPT TO BLAME HER, BUT I KNOW THAT IN REALITY, VICTIM BLAMING IS AN ALL-TOO-COMMON REACTION IN CASES OF SEXUAL ASSAULT.
MANY SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIMS WHO COMMENT ON MY ARTICLES TOO OFTEN STATE THAT THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS DO NOT SUPPORT THEIR ADMISSIONS OF RAPE, BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEIR RAPIST. FOR SOME REASON, PEOPLE OFTEN INVALIDATE RAPE VICTIMS BECAUSE THEY FIND THE FACT THAT THEIR RAPIST WAS AN EX-PARTNER, FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER UNBELIEVABLE. THEY COULD NOT BE MORE WRONG.
HEALING FROM SEXUAL ASSAULT IS VERY DIFFICULT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY NOT ONLY INVALIDATE YOUR CLAIMS BUT BLAME YOU FOR BEING RAPED. VICTIM BLAMING, HOWEVER, IS A HUGE PART OF OUR CULTURE. I’M SURE YOU’VE HEARD THESE ALL-TOO-CLASSIC LINES, PROBABLY MORE THAN ONC
Maher lives in country where more than fifty-three percent children have faced some form of sexual abuse. She lives in a country where boys are equally at risk. Mahi, like most others in a similar situation, bears the irreparable hurt and damage, without confiding in anyone. Not even, mum.
Maher is at highest risk when she is at work -a crime per se-, or when she is at institutional care. Worse, she is among the majority of children who have suffered at the hands of family members. (How could she tell her mother?)Her plea, when it comes to light, is based on inadequately just ‘rape laws’ that do not sufficiently cater to a child’s plight, or need.
MEHARi is a fictional name. But she, unfortunately, is not a figment of my imagination. Open the newspaper, especially the New Delhi edition- you will concur. The Capital accounts for alarming statistics on child abuse, trafficking, exploitation, child pornography. A couple of days back, Delhi additional sessions judge Kamini Lau recommended chemical castration, ‘particularly in cases involving rape of minors, serial offenders and child molesters’ as an alternative action against sexual offenders. But even she anticipates repercussions and awaits deliberation.
Is the prospect of containing potentially life-threatening, certainly life-scarring, inhuman sexual behavior, a psychological deformity, worthy of a debate? Such a measure is not without precedence. US, Poland, UK and Germany have all employed it. It’s a disease that needs forceful medical intervention; a malady that needs to be quarantined. Chemical castration should be viewed as a cure (unlike capital punishment or judicial confinement), for the ‘punishment’ itself, is remedial. Why then should we be gun shy to implement it?
It’s not about saving the innocent, merely. It is about saving innocence. Children constitute over 40% of our population. What kind of past, is their present? What will they carry into the future? What if, Maher is someone you know and love? What if, Maher is your own child…What if, Mahi, was, is, you?
they attack anwar, then DAP and now PAS…..trying, trying very hard because GE is coming and they will try to break PR up before GEis running scared, they actually concede by action ; showing us that there is a probable possibility that they will be toppled come GE13!PAS & UMNO, One Race but Two different and opposing Ideology. It takes an earthquake to shake them together.after Pas left the BN, why we hear only condemmation? Now that the signs are there to show that Umno might lose Putrajaya, you now talk untiy in Islam and Muslim brotherhood. Why not before? Why Now? Pas is an experienced political party and after they are in Pakatan Rakyat which is gaining support by the day, you suffer cold feet, thus this invitation. Today not only Umno but Utusan and Perkasa is at its knees begging got the cause of Islam, why not before? Isn’t it questionable?
With so many non Malay now supporting PAS, I think its a big mistake if Pas were to abandon PR.For that matter, does Pas for one moment think Umno/Bn would treat them as equal partner? Also would Pas rather associate with one whom the Malaysian public has a perception that is corrupt to the core ? UMNO is extremist, self centred and racist. How can they join Pakatan Rakyat? Would the People accept them after all the evil that they did?? And how can moderate PAS the true Islamic Party join UMNO the Infidels?? Allah will not allow it to happen.Umno, you know, PAS and DAP,PKR are winning in the GE13. So, why do you think PAS is so foolish to jump over to join Umno when they know Umno is gone, a loser in the GE. Umno what you gonna do, asking the Utusan to keep writing racist articles daily. For how long – till 2013 when you decide to call for GE?
The worse that could happen if the merger materialise, Pas supporters may be split thus weaken it, then who would be the big winner? If this happen, then Pas could wave its aspirations goodbye, and play second fiddle to big brother, and it will also find it difficult to rise from the ashes again.BN, do you think that the Malays or even non-Malays, who have supporting PAS, will continue to do so if PAS joins BN? The main reason for their support of PAS is because of their hatred of UMNO. On the contrary, BN might even lose more support. Instead of implementing reforms, they play the race card to the hilt, making use of all the institutions and media Utusan, PAS will only think whether to leave Pakatan Rakyat or not. only after the Pakatan Rakyat rule the Federal Govt at least for 6 terms. So, Utusan, you can wait and do continue to ask PAS to leave after that time is up. Until then, you better continue write on racialism to boost vote support for the Umno in the next GE. Utusan, your racist articles have no effective on the voters of Pakatan Rakyat, so don’t waste your time and energy writing such racist articles daily.

NAINA IS A MALAY,SURE A MALAY NOTHING BUT MALAY
Indian scientists, B. G. Sidharth, Director of the B. M. Birla Science Centre at Hyderabad, and Syed Afsar Abbas, Professor at the Physics Department of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), have denied the possibility of existence of Higgs boson, also known as god particles.
The Higgs particles and its related mechanism were discovered by Theoretical Physicist Peter Higgs in the 1960s. The god particles is said to give mass to other particles in the universe, but it has never been found. Some scientists claim that the Higgs boson will give scientific answers to questions about the mass and expansion of the universe. They also claim that these particles will help humans understand what makes all things around us.
Syed Abbas said that many such claims were made in the past as well. These claims were unscientific and there is no evidence related to their presence.
According to physicists’ Standard Model, the Higgs boson is an elementary particle that should exist. But no one has yet detected one and based on these evidences the scientists have said that there is no proof that such particles actually exists.
Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad is sad whenever he hears calls of ‘Hidup Melayu’ (Long live the Malays) as this could now be easily construed as racist.
He said such calls used to be louder but not any more as there is fear among the Malays that they could be labelled as racists who reject other races.“We are not denying them their rights but the Malays feel hurt because their rights are being questioned by others in their own land,” he said, touching on a theme which he has repeated time and again.
“It has even come to the stage where others are trying to say that the Malays are immigrants, asking us when we came to this country,” he added.
‘Yes, I’m of mixed race’
Very rarely does Mahathir admit he is of mixed race, but this event – dubbed by some as the launch of the ’1Melayu, 1Bumi movement – is one occasion where he did.
He said many others who claimed they were Malays were “mixed” too, pointing to Kedah Perkasa chief Syed Osman Syed Mansor, who was present on stage with him.
However, he was quick to add that “I am a Malay” since he habitually speaks the Malay language and practises Malay custom and professes Islam as his religion.“We have been accepted as Malays by the sultans a long time ago… and those who do not speak Malay and who are not Islam are not considered Malays,” he explained.
“That is why if anyone says to me that I am not a Malay, I am willing to punch his face,” he warned.
Mahathir had every reason to feel defensive as he attended the rather low-key Malay unity gathering in Alor Setar today organised by Malay rights pressure group Perkasa, of which he is patron.
Only a fraction – about 800 – of the expected 30,000 crowd turned up at the Stadium Sultan Abdul Halim, where a trade expo was also simultaneously held for two days.Although he was greeted by ‘bunga manggar‘ and a silat group, where several youths were seen carrying his memoirs, ‘Doctor in the House‘, as they ushered him on stage, Mahathir himself appeared to be listless, and when he spoke, his voice was soft and low.
Potshots at Anwar
Potshots at Anwar
He was entertaining nonetheless as he took the crowd down memory lane, telling them that he would give them “a course on history as the Malays are prone to forget”.
He warned that forgetting one’s history was detrimental to the race; that it was the very reason why the Malays allowed themselves to be colonised by the British.
During his “lesson”, he spoke of how the Malays became split into three political groups, rendering them weak. He urged them to be united, saying that through unity, even the weak could be strong.At one point during his one-hour ‘lesson’, his talk turned into an Anwar Ibrahim-bashing session, albeit gently, where he outlined the history of his former protege’s entry into Umno and his ambition to become the country’s top leader.
Mahathir’s speech touched on sodomy I and II, and the controversial sex video, adding that Anwar appeared to be religious but “behind” he was capable of “something else”.
He urged Malaysians to be careful about this man, whom some considered “a hero”.
The former premier made jokes with the word “behind”, clearly targeting Anwar who is facing allegations of engaging in homosexual activities, drawing laughter from the audience.
Non-Malays told to be considerate
Speaking later on elections, Mahathir said he was saddened by the recent Sarawak polls as it clearly showed that there was lack of support among the non-Malays for BN, especially Umno and other Muslim parties.
He added he hoped history would not repeat itself in the coming elections, recalling that three years ago there were significant protest votes against then-prime minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
“You do not need to burn the entire netting just to get rid of the mosquitoes,” he quipped.
He urged Umno to work with other races in the coming general election and asked the non-Malays to be considerate as the Malays did not ask much, just for their share of the economic pie.
“I hope other parties do not go and whisper quietly to others not to vote for the BN,” he said.
“We not only want to share power, but share it equally or we would have asked for more as we are 60 percent of the population but we only ask for 30 percent (equity ownership),” he added
