A interesting article for my readers to read:
Perak: May 7th.. doomsday predicted for UMNO nationwide
1. As the hours get closer, the players are getting edgy. Those mighty lawmakers in the State Legislature have now sought the power of the supernatural in trying to ensure their plans will work. They no longer trust themselves and they no longer trust Allah (God). They need additional support. As if the support from Federal Government, State Secretary and other government agencies is not enough.
2. Zambry has denied it but then maybe Zambry is not involved. His people may be doing it. In any case who in their sound mind would want to acknowledge it? Today news headlines include the story of the police calling the PR assemblyman for a briefing. There was also an article on the accusation that the Police was intimidating some PR ADUN by taking pictures of their homes.
3. Whether it is actually for protection or for intimidation, only the Perak Police will know for sure. In any case, it is surprising that out of millions of homes in Perak; only the image of the PR house was captured.
4. On the hand the newspaper also carried the story that Zambry has rescinded the instruction to prevent the media from covering the event. I guess he just came to his senses that it would be counterproductive on their side. Whatever the case maybe, the future is not longer on the TV and the papers. It is on the internet. The power of the internet is growing and it is a force that needs to be engaged and not sidelined.
5. Based on the Perak State Constitution (PSC) and the Perak Legislative Assembly Standing Orders (PLASO), there would chaos in the Assembly. This chaos starts with the impatient part of BN (UMNO) on wanting to take over the state. They had bypassed the due process. If they had waited and address the issue of Nizar and the issue who has the majority in the assembly, all this chaos would not have happened.
6. On one hand, BN has the office of the MB. It has the support of the State Secretary and the support of some important people in the state. What it does not have is the support of the people. PR on the other hand has control over the assembly via the speaker.
7. The PSC and PLASO have given the control to PR and this control cannot be undone until there is dissolution of the assembly. Without the control of the Assembly, Perak Government will not be able to function. It cannot pass any budget. It cannot spend money. It cannot pass any laws. It can do nothing essentially.
8. All this will create a big chaos. It will create a major doomsday in Perak. It will be infectious. It is so infectious that it will spread to other states. Like the H1N1 virus, the Malaysian Government may just declare a PANDEMIC and Emergency rule will come into force.
9. With the online media dominating the Malaysian Scene, I would say that it is imperative that BN address this issue now. Any form of abuse of power and position will not be acceptable to the people. It would only make things worse. It is like pouring petrol on the burning flame.
10. The right thing to do is to put the people interest above the rest. The people are important. Governments exist because of the people. Government is supposed to serve the people. Go back to the people and ask for a fresh mandate. This will solve all the problems. In fact it would be the best remedy in winning back the people aspiration. It is the vaccine that is needed to ensure that BN stays afloat at the next General Election.
11. The way I see it, it is in the best interest of UMNO long term survival to ensure that powers is returned to the people to ensure that this chaos will stop. Zambry in his blog blames the PR for the ensuing chaos. The Malays has a popular saying “tak berbunyi kalau tepuk sebelah tangan”
Thinks to remember : GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE, So JOM to Ipoh on 7 May 2009 in the morning if the Sultan of Perak does not dissolve the State Assembly or withdraws his consent for 7 May 2009 Perak State Assembly sitting. Let's show UMNO and the Barisan Nasional that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH and their dirty tricks would not work anymore.

enough is enough..
UMNO couldn't care less about the feelings of Perakians except to seize control of Perak by hook or by crook. From the looks of things in Ipoh now, with the PDRM out in full force and roads to the state secretariat building are manned and will become inaccessible, PDRM under UMNO's orders are prepared for a full confrontation with Perakians regardless of the size of PR supporters. UMNO has 3 or so years to go about their monkey business in Perak and thereafter it will be Perakians talking once again at the ballot box. On that day as most predicted, UMNO will not only stand to lose Perak, but their prized catch, Malaysia too, God willing!!
