Malaysiakini - Not exactly Ramadan spirit in Kluang bazaar (selected extracts):
![]()
It's obvious to all that those who were distributing dates to the public opt for civility and grace but not those who obstructed them.
The latter who behaved so badly reflects very poorly on their religious education and family upbringing, yet it's always this same kind of people who blame the world for not respecting their professed faith.
Dont Just Talk: Those few red T-shirt Muslims have behaved badly in the holy month of Ramadan by roughing up and preventing Kluang MP Liew Chin Tong and his entourage from distributing dates to the Muslims in his constituency, with a few shouting "Allahu Akbar", indeed made a fool of themselves.

How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!
Versey: What kind of religious education or culture that produces followers that have no respect for courtesy, civility and kindness shown by their fellow people?

Yet Muar MP Razali Ibrahim, who is also a deputy minister in the Prime Minister's Department, has the brazen nerve, arrogance and non-repentance (unlike KJ and a few other UMNO people) to defend such indefensible thuggish behaviour, indefensible from a religious, cultural and legal aspect.

He said that Kluang MP Liew Chin Tong and his entourage should not have persisted in entering the Bandar Kluang Ramadan bazaar when they were told that they were not welcome.
He dug out a 10-year old piece of information about DAP asking for the bazaar to be closed down.

Yes, 10-years old, and who were the obstructionists at the bazaar recently? Were they the bazaar people?
If we want to dig up 10-year old info, well, in 2007, Musharraf Perev was about to lose power in Pakistan, the USA was suffering from its subprime mortgage crisis, British author J.K. Rowling wrote her last Harry Potter novel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, ...
... while in Malaysia bloggers Jeff Ooi and Ahirudin Attan (Rocky Bru) were sued by the NSTP for libel (wakakaka), Firefly, Malaysia's second low-cost airline commences operations, and Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin of Terengganu became the 13th Agong.
In Selangor, K Parthiban (BN) defeated Khalid Ibrahim in the Ijok be-election with a majority of 1,850 votes, in which which PKR was supposed to have nominated Nallakarrupan but was supposedly under confident an Indian candidate would lose there and that a Malay like Khalid was more likely to whack Parthiban (wakakaka).
Oh, in that year, the Federal Court rejected Lina Joy's appeal to get the National Registration Department to remove the word 'Islam' from her identity card, which means she is officially still a Muslim.
Then romance was also in the air as AAB marries Jeanne but alas, riots occurred in Kuala Terengganu after a police crackdown on an opposition political rally.
Jeez, and you thought for a moment they were protesting against AAB-Jeanne's marriage, didn't you? Wakakaka.
Then Hindraf did its first ever (and its last ever) most stirring and most Malaysian-supported rally outside the Pom's Hi-Comm building. I even composed a poem to salute them - see my25 November 2007.
But eight years later, I showed my disappointment at Hindraf with another (shorter) poem titledDirge for Hindraf. As 2 Samuel 1:27 (KJV) says:
But back on track, there have been the ugly propensities by some 'wonders' to resort to violence whenever it pleases them. Ar&*h@le$.
Please see my earlier post Violence - a Malay solution?
