Apology--A Scarce and Useless Resources

In the famous Taiwanese Series "Meteor Garden", there is this phrase I like the most.

"If apologize can settle any matter, what for we need police?"

Well, in Malaysia, not only apologize is useless, even the police is just a nice piece of ornament. Worse still, someone is so stingy that you need to cross over his dead body if you wanna hear "sorry" coming out from his stubborn mouth.

Yes, he is one of the so-called "Malay's Hero", Bukit Bendera Umno Chief-- Ahmad Ismail.

As all of you might have seen or heard of his marvelous act during the Permatang Pauh by-election recently, I think I wouldn't have to repeat what racist remarks he had made. But I have to admit that he is really a hero.


Just think about it, who the hell in Malaysia can has this ability to make the top 2 leaders of Malaysia to help him to wipe his ass after he has done his business? This time, Ahmad Ismail has really made his family very proud.


In his 51st National Day Message, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi urged every Malaysian to give importance to solidarity, as “it is the cornerstone of the country’s political stability, social harmony and economic competitiveness”.

Ahmad Ismail immediate response is to demand Badawi not to compromise Malay's rights (Ketuanan Melayu) to please other races in Malaysia.

Very Nice! Very Brave!

Even our ex-PM who suppose to enjoy his retirement also jumped out and supported him by stating "why non-Malay doesn't need to apologize?" Well, this time, Mr. Mahathir is not that forgetful anymore like in Lingam's case and has recalled some of the incidents to prove himself.

"Why Wee Meng Chee doesn't apologize?" (Wee Meng Chee is the creator of "Negarakuku")
"Why Hindraf doesn't apologize?"
"Why only Ahamd Ismail needs to apologize?"
"Why only Malays need to apologize?"

Whoa! Ahmad Ismail is really damn 'powderful'! Even Mahathir is backing his ass now.

I really wonder what is inside Mahathir's brain now. What is he thinking about? Nobody would believe such low-class+childish phrase would come out from his mouth, a person who was once a prime minister, a leader.

I would like to remind Mr. Mahathir of his selective forgetful disease if he has not forgotten these:

1. Wee Meng Chee nearly couldn't return to his country because of the song mentioned above which doesn't even touched the sensitive racist issue. And if you didn't forget, not only Meng Chee, but his father too has apologized due to the pressure by 'Heroes'.

2. Hindraf's Memorandum is just against the current government and certain political party, not the races; they had paid the price by eating curry rice now in Kamunting Hotel now. What somemore do you want them to do?

3. Apologize is not a racist issue, it is an attitude of admitting your own fault. It's an attitude practiced by everyone in this world. Therefore, there shouldn't be any double-standard that only Malays or non-Malays should apologize.

Mahathir is really old. Therefore, he can be blurred and forgetful. He can also forget that ten years ago, if not because of the votes of the non-Malays, the BN governmen had already lost its 2/3 majority in the 1999 General Election. He must have forgotten that he could still be the Prime Minister then is because of the support of the non-Malay, especially the Chinese.

Thank God that he is no longer the Prime Minister but an old man now.

I know the coming Umno Election is very important to brats like Ahmad Ismail and gangs, but I think they should know that racist issues is no longer the fire which they all can play and use to gain votes to substantiate thier position in Umno. The voters in Permatang Pauh had already voiced out that racist issues just couldn't work nowadays.

Maybe it's time for everyone, regardless of race to work hand-in-hand not to make Malaysia a hopeless country.
