It has been rather a routine for the foreign powers-that-be, namely the Anglo-American superpowers to dictate and decide on foreign policies in the international arena. Top of the most important in their list is of course, freedom, justice and democracy whereby they are so proud of propagating throughout the world, in the pretext of liberalizing “third world countries” from the “clutches of tyranny, oppression and autocracy.”
In this aspect, the Malaysian government is also being targeted for not providing “enough justice support system” to our firebrand Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim. The US Embassy has issued a statement that implies democracy is under threat in Malaysia with the coming verdict of the PKR de facto leader, assumed to be “guilty” even before the courts announce the result of the deliberation of the appeal. Malaysia is painted as being a “black democracy” with court judges being easily bribed and being puppets of the executive, so they say.
However, time and again, the many court decisions which have been upheld, have shown results that are not only favourable to the ruling government but also sided with the opposition leaders. Courts have awarded payments and remunerations to countless opposition leaders who were found to be “victimized”.
Then again, is it fair to accuse the Federal Government of having a hand in manipulating these decisions as well? Meaning to say, if Barisan Nasional leaders win the suit, then the courts are biased. But if Pakatan Rakyat leaders win the suit, can the courts be equally biased too? Or only Pakatan cases are allowed to win in courts and all cases involving Barisan Nasional must lose, only then will there be fairness and justice in the eyes of our Big Brothers, the United States, United Kingdom and their deputy sheriff in Asia, i.e. Australia? The Xenophon intervention is another typical example of “holier than thou” attitude which speaks of arrogance and ignorance of the legal system in Malaysia, which actually is an inherited system of the British colonial rule, including the Sedition Act 1948. Oh by the way, Malaya did not even gain independence yet at that time so how could it be a Malaysian law in the post-independence era? Do these people even know their history?
The Anwar saga is the most glaring case of all. No doubt, Anwar is seen as an “icon” and to a certain extent the “champion of democracy”, some even equating him with Aung San Suu Kyi of Myanmar and Jose Rizal of the Philippines. But make no mistake, Anwar is no freedom fighter for he once was part of the Mahathir administration in the 90s, the so-called dark, gloomy, oppressive and dictatorial rule of the iron fist doctor during his 22 years of power, of which surprisingly after the “master” sacked the “servant”, it was suddenly evident that there needs to be an uprising in the Malaysian streets to overthrow the legitimate, elected government of the day. All of a sudden, all the foreign media are zoomed in and focused on Kuala Lumpur. The shouts of “Reformasi” was supported by Al-Gore, the former Vice-President of the United States when he came to Malaysia for a summit. Imagine coming to a country upon being invited as a deputy head of state, only to give a speech to encourage the people to rise and overthrow the legally elected government of the day, of which the same “first-past-the-post system” was used by the UK electoral system until this very day.
What a hypocrite!
America should stop poking its nose into other nations’ affairs. Do not be a busy-body, trying to act smart and teach a duck how to swim. Please mind your own business. Kindly respect the International Charter of the United Nations. All nations are granted dignity and sovereignty in managing their own affairs and running of their countries. Surely you do not like other people to interfere in your internal affairs and advise the President of the United States to do this and that.
Needless to say, the foreign media, journalists, editors and propagandists are also responsible for their biased report on Malaysia. Their glorification of Anwar and bad-mouthing of Najib never stops, as if everything Anwar dictates is the whole truth and nothing but the truth while whatever that comes out from Najib’s mouth are nothing but a pack of lies. These bunch of retards will never have any good thing to say about the tremendous progress and growth that Malaysia has achieved for the past few decades. True enough, their mentality is set to ABU: Anything But Umno. They just want to kick out BN/Umno by whatever means possible and replace the current government with their stooge and hopefully can then decide on the foreign policy of this country, to be more pro-America of course.
It is evident and obvious that the citizens of Malaysia must open their eyes and be wary of these insidious, hidden, clandestine plots by foreign agents in disrupting, dismantling and destroying what we have built for the past 57 years. We must not be fooled by these self-serving opportunists who will stop at nothing just to see Malaysia chaotic so as to justify foreign intervention and involvement.
May I remind the American Government regarding the The Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration states that the United States is and has the right to be “free and independent.” The Declaration is based on the right of self-government inherent in the American people, and on their need to form a government that would protect their inalienable rights. In this same regard, what makes Malaysia so different from America?
We too have the right to be “free and independent”.
