Don't want to comment on how ridiculous the whole situation is.

All I wanna say is.....if you didn't get a pass for English in school, don't try and use it for your sepanduk-lah. *facepalm*

with Country Garden involved, you don't need Malaysian investors. There is a lot of money trapped in China seeking investments abroad, and with Malaysian prop prices being amongst the lowest in SEA, and the Chinese diaspora here.... it is as good as sold.

Sad - they can't be that stupid, can they? If HRH wants more than two names, just submit the names. I'm not going to go into who is right or who is wrong legally, but HRH has given a decree - just respect it.

And I know a lot of people are going to whack me about how the voice of the rakyat must also be respected, this is a democracy, etc - but I want to see PR succeed as much as the next opposition supporter. But it will do no one any good if they push everyone into corners until all that's left on the table is conflict. You may be the majority - but there are still 48% who voted for the OTHER side....that's just 4% less than you. More than enough to turn this country into rubble when push comes to violent shove from BOTH sides...

Sigh. Idealism is good. Optimism is good. But temper everything with a bit of reality and a lot of patience. Please. For the sake of a future.

Don't let everything burn because of your rush to fulfill your ideals.

This is completely ridiculous. I can see how there may be a sliver, however tenuous, of an argument in the cases of Nizar and Surendran. But first Khalid, a state lawmaker calling for a review of state laws....surely that is within his bounds, as it should be for all rakyat of Selangor. And now Rayer, calling UMNO c*laka - how is this even seditious? Is UMNO a national institution that can never be touched? If you say "defamation", ok......"sedition"?!??! WTF!?!??!?!?!

The point of whether Khalid, from the start, needed to go is moot now. He needs to go after all that has happened. But, from the very start, PKR, and now PKR + DAP are being rash and rushing things through. I don't know if it is sheer hubris on their part, thinking Khalid will just roll over, or lack of foresight on all possible eventualities (and when you want to pull off something this big, thorough analysis should have been done). There are good and bad eggs in PAS - now is NOT the time to keep badgering and pestering PAS, especially those decent ones caught in the middle. A number of them are still ADUNs, and hopefully will vote with their conscience when the time comes. Am I being naive? No - I am being practical. Everything PKR + DAP has done in the past 2 weeks has been digging their own hole deeper. Their reputation is already in shambles - legally, the Sultan has to back the MB until a show of no-confidence is done. To keep undermining the MB in his role AS AN MB, is akin to undermining the state of Selangor and the Sultan. PKR + DAP need to watch their step and not think they can ride roughshod over state institutions. Yes, the rakyat should come first, but there is no need to antagonise all other institutions along the way - that's a recipe for disaster.

I'd like to know which idiotic NGO made the report - seditious? Are you kidding me. Do you guys even know the meaning of the word?

If the police are conducting this investigation due to a breach of the Financial Services Act, that is fair, they are just doing their jobs (please don't blame the boys in blue for this). But for this NGO to accuse Rafizi of "sedition" is stupid.
