Footballs are made to be kicked by good quality shoes and most times that actually happens. They don't get kicked by spiked shoes or industrial boots. And they get kicked around most often in nicely manicured greens.<BR/><BR/>Our police, on the other hand get kicked around by UMNO politicians like as if they are plastic bottles on the road. To be used then trampled on. <BR/><BR/>The police would fail to find in their codes anywhere anything that would justify the reporter, Ms Tan, Theresa Kok and Raja Petra's arrest. Yet they did it. Why? Because they were told to do so. <BR/><BR/>What is worse is they get abandoned mid-way when the heat is up. Syed Hamid, the Home Minister is supposed to sign off before an ISA arrest can be made. Yet he made it look like it was an entirely police action. And the police, being the idiots that they are, feebly accept blame without defending themselves. <BR/><BR/>They follow operational manuals that require the FRU to dress up and be equipped in a certain manner. And at the candle light vigil at Bukit Aman the previous Saturday, watching over young petite girls and young nerdy boys and young and old men who did not look anything like gangsters, they must have felt themselves totally stupid. But why?<BR/><BR/>Quite simply, their operational codes were written for a time when demonstrators might have been the Trade Union types, boisterous and big sized rogues even, and the type with the propensity to violence quite easily. <BR/><BR/>This bunch were singing the Malaysianised version of Oh My Darling Clamentine!! And in such a rhythm, I thought the biggest danger to the cops might have been that they all go to sleep standing in their gear. <BR/><BR/><BR/>The Standard Operational Procedures the police rely on just does not suit the kind of "opposition" they are facing. Very soon when they realise how stupid really they look and so on, they will stop going out on these operations. What happens then when a real dangerous event happens?<BR/><BR/>The sad thing is the leadership in the police has actually sacrificed the police force to the politicians to be used and misused. And when the going gets really tough, the politicans wash their hands off nicely and they cops are left holding the rotten egg in their hands.Old Farthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473446507494861946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-41512815418700358192008-09-22T01:20:00.000+08:002008-09-22T01:20:00.000+08:00A rainbow for Malaysia Daulat Tuanku!

May this prayer from all Malaysians at the marketplace, warongs, corporate corridors and in neighborhoods echo into the palace walls of our revered Rulers and King.<BR/> <BR/>We want a Prime Minister who can bring this nation to new heights of glory for God, King, rakyat and nation.<BR/> <BR/>We want a leader who is well regarded at home and abroad. A man who commands the respect of noted Who's Who in the global village of influence and power, someone that many regard as a visionary leader of the times.<BR/> <BR/>We want a Prime Minister who has been roasted and tested in the cinders of political challenges for a long time. Someone who has survived the test of treachery, injustice, political character assassination and the works but remains steadfast to the teachings of Islam.<BR/> <BR/>We want a leader who can restore the glorious path and stature of Islam for the world to praise. We want that man who can raise Islam to its glory without harming other religions and creeds.<BR/> <BR/>We want a man to helm the nation with pride, integrity and with no personal and vested interests that undermine Rulers and rakyat.<BR/> <BR/>We want the man to have a track record of having an exemplary family behind him. A wife who plays no golf, but raises fine examples of children for the future generation to emulate.<BR/> <BR/>We want a man whose wife can stand tall among our women folks and be a shining example of a mother, wife and sister. A woman who dabbles not in extravagant overseas shopping sprees nor vain face lifts or body re-works.<BR/> <BR/>We want a man who is visionary, resolute and firm yet gentle in his demeanor. A man who has successfully galvanized opposing political parties in the best interest of nation building and in an unprecedented manner.<BR/> <BR/>We want a man who can be a proud father of children who have made a mark in the nation's political history out of sheer determination and integrity. We want that man whose children have felled political Goliaths with simplicity, niat and consistency.<BR/> <BR/>We want a man who has what it will take to restore our Rulers and Monarchy to the glory and reverence of yesteryear's that were robbed from them in the past.<BR/> <BR/>We want a Prime Minister who will not fear nor backtrack in the war against corruption and social decadence. A man who will have the resolute will to leave no stone unturned in order to bring back all the stolen wealth back into the country for the well being of King and citizens.<BR/> <BR/>We want a Prime Minister who articulates well and intelligently, giving a respected image to King and nation. <BR/><BR/>We want that man who promises to deliver and delivers on his promises.<BR/> <BR/>We want that rainbow for Malaysia. <BR/> <BR/>If it is Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, then so be it for the love of God, King, Rakyat and Nation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-61438379447186962962008-09-21T16:55:00.000+08:002008-09-21T16:55:00.000+08:00Captain,Poor police!

From the accounts of Ms Tan and Ms Kok after their release, it is obvious that all the police wanted was confirmation of certain issues. Why on earth then did they resort to the use of the ISA? Surely an invitation to Ms Tan and Ms Kok to co-operate with the police in their investigation was more than sufficient?chapchaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048180236421500719noreply@blogger.com
