(1) TMI's MCA backs EC leaders to stay on reports:
The Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) has thrown its weight behind the Election Commission (EC), saying there is no reason for opposition bigwig Tian Chua to call for the EC leadership team to resign.

The Chinese part of the ruling Barisan Nasional points out that both the political coalitions that contested the general election have filed election petitions and it argues that this proves the EC did not favour either side.
It's not the MCA stand I have problems with because MCA is being what MCA has been for the last 30 years, a lapdog of UMNO.
It's TMI description of Tian Chua as an opposition, get this, bigwig.
I accept Anwar Ibrahim and Wan Azizah are opposition bigwigs, and likewise for Pak Hj Nik Aziz, Pak Hj Hadi Awang, Mat Sabu, Karpal Singh, Lim Kit Siang, Lim Guan Eng.

But Tian Chua?
WTF or wakakaka.
PKR pollies are more bigheads (or bigheaded) than bigwigs.

The Election Commission admits failure of indelible ink during the 13th general election. Its chairperson, Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof expressed his disappointment with reports that the ink could be washed off easily.
"If people ask me now, what is the saddest thing in my life, I would answer: ‘Indelible ink'," said Abdul Aziz during an interview with Malay daily, Sinar Harian.
The ink was part of the electoral reforms made last year to improve transparency within the system. However, the plan backfired when many voters found that the indelible ink can be washed off.

According to Abdul Aziz, the commission tested the indelible ink several times prior to the May 5 general election.
“On the much-awaited day, the power of Allah is greater when the ink could disappear after being washed several times. Where is the mistake?” said Abdul Aziz.

Whipping all parties involved in incest fails to recognise the power dynamics of a family where one party becomes the victim of another, says the Joint Action Group for Gender Equality (JAG).
Instead, it said justice would be better served if the perpertrator is charged under the Penal Code, as this would "properly reflect the gravity of the crime committed".
JAG adds in a statement: "It is grossly unjust that the Syariah Criminal Offences Act renders a victim of incest liable to a charge of illicit consensual sex.
"This fails to recognise the power dynamics in sexual crimes that occur within the family. No victim should be punished or even charged for the crime of incest."
Civil law, it said, is better suited to punish incest offenders as the guilty party is liable to a jail term of no less than six years and not more than 20 years.
Under the Johor Syariah Criminal Offences Act, those guilty of incest will face a fine not exceeding RM5,000 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years, or to whipping not exceeding six strokes or to any combination thereof.
Her attackers, charged with the same offence, were deported before completing their sentences of 12 and 13 months.
“On the much-awaited day, the power of Allah is greater when the ink could disappear after being washed several times. Where is the mistake?” said Abdul Aziz.
As they say, to err is only human, BUT to f**king lie is unscrupulous.
The EC had flagrantly lied about the so-called indelible ink and worse, kept changing their lies.
First, it was staff lack of knowledge in using the ink, then it was the need for Islamic ablution (prior to prayers) which 'compelled' the EC to dilute it so that it is NOT indelible (then why the f**k used it?), following which it was the Health Ministry's warning about the poisonous silver nitrate or some health-hazard chemicals in the ink which again 'compelled' the EC to dilute those noxious stuff, ...
... and which the new Health Minister, S Subramaniam, has (together with a ministry senior civil servant) repudiated the EC's claim of the advice coming from the Health Ministry.
In short, the EC has been lying but also demonstrated its sheer incompetency that they couldn't even come up with a decent lie and stick to that for consistency. That's what incompetency means.
Now, the EC chairperson, Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof, has the blasphemous nerve to draw in the name of Allah swt by providing another excuse again, effectively blaming The Almighty in his declaration “On the much-awaited day, the power of Allah is greater when the ink could disappear after being washed several times."
No, not 'washed several times' but by merely rubbing the inked finger against grass.
And he thought by blasphemously invoking the name of Allah swt, he might get away with it.
And he thought by blasphemously invoking the name of Allah swt, he might get away with it.
And this is the EC that MCA supports.
(3) Malaysiakini - Indian migrant joined Rela, got BR1M, RCI told
Have you read my previous post Some "Chinese" rule Malaysia now?
Maybe I've been incorrect and should have written a different article titled 'Some "Indians" rule Malaysia now' - wakakaka!
(4) Malaysiakini's Dr M backs 'no contest proposal' for Umno top posts reports:
Former Umno president Dr Mahathir Mohamad has backed urgings for the posts of president and deputy president to remain uncontested during the party polls to be held later this year. [...]
"If someone loses, they will withdraw and form another party and later divide Umno. I agree with competition but if there is competition, Umno will be split into two."
Obviously he worries about UMNO being split into two because that's not what he wants his nice but still politically naive son Mukhriz to inherit.
(5) Malaysiakini's Why should incest victims, too, be whipped? reported:
Instead, it said justice would be better served if the perpertrator is charged under the Penal Code, as this would "properly reflect the gravity of the crime committed".
JAG adds in a statement: "It is grossly unjust that the Syariah Criminal Offences Act renders a victim of incest liable to a charge of illicit consensual sex.

Of course civil laws punish the offenders severely which may be why some Malaysian misogynists may not want.
There have been very observable discriminations against and disrespect for women among some Malaysian men - read my older posts Gatal versus miang and Lawmakers too easy on incest!
Taking about syariah laws, please read this Sydney Morning Herald report titled $25m fine 'means life' in foreign jail which tells us (relevant-related extract):

| Alicia Gali, Australian victim but Dubai criminal |
The scales of justice in Dubai are askew. Consider the case of Alicia Gali, an Australian drugged and raped by three fellow hotel employees in 2008. With four broken ribs, she reported the crime - and was promptly charged with having sex out of wedlock. She was sentenced to 12 months' jail and served the next eight months behind bars.
Her attackers, charged with the same offence, were deported before completing their sentences of 12 and 13 months.
Now, did I mention misogynistic discrimination against women?
So it's hardly surprising that in Malaysia the syariah laws (made by Malaysian men just as the Dubai syariah laws were made by Dubai men, and not Allah swt) allows the female (and probably underage) victim of an incestuous act to be whipped like the animal who raped her.
