I salute you Datuk Zaid Ibrahim..

Datuk Mohd Zaid Ibrahim.. I salute you.
For making a stand.
For trying to instill a sense of balance and fairness
Justice.
Change for the better
A shift of attitudes
Values of freedom,
Human rights
Respect of the law
Malaysia needs more like you.

Yesterday's paper says that UMNO has issued him a show cause letter for his recent open letter to the PM to repeal ISA and also for attending a meeting with PKR MPs. It's really a case of ketuanan here...Tuan says this...anak buah cannot bangkang. If anak buah bangkang, then anak buah derhaka. Ain't this feudalism then??? ...where autocracy, monarchy, totalitarian kind of rules are the flavours???

Wondering what is it that these flers who issued the show cause letter stand for?.....everything that is not morally right??? I think they should go for Pendidikan Moral lessons... when leaders start to say that unjust and unfair practices are the ways to go, something is obviously wrong, right??

mar-8 too much of a shock? For who?? Those flers who have always not played fair?? But I agree..change takes time. Still, I find it difficult to understand how these same people can claim to do it in the name of their faith....

anyway, let's hope for the best. a tiny step is still better than a reverse step!

Students who don't take Pendidikan Islam as a subject at SPM level has to take Pendidikan Moral..it's an examinable subject. There're 36 moral values each student must memorise...as in really memorise, hence making Moral one of the more difficult subjects to score an A. I call it a 'crapology' subject. Give situation...then identify a nilai moral you shld practise.
