Lebih Biru dari Biru


Lucah sana, lucah sini,

Terpampang sudah segenap segi,

Jelas terpapar dedahan asli,

Sekali tonton rasa nak lagi.


Siapa gerangan pelakon utama,

Perutnya boroi membuyut dada,

Bertuala panjang badan perkasa,

Namun identiti masih rahsia.


Wawasan 2020 semakin dihampiri,

Kini namanya wawasan pornografi,

Anak muda dihidang aksi,

sebelum belajar buat sendiri.


Zaman remaja mengenal dunia,

Belajar dari telunjuk yang tua,

Porno hadir hidangan utama,

Lazat dan bertenaga si anak muda.


Video merangsang darah si muda,

Yang tidak mengerti, tahu segala,

Yang jahil, peroleh idea,

Senyap-senyap intai tandas wanita,

Waktu malam pecah masuk asrama,

Rogol, sumbang mahram dan juga berzina,

Semakin bertambah 'permata' negara.


Inilah lumrah politik negara,

Kalau naik angin nak londeh semua,

Londeh sini dan londeh sana,

Yang penting kekal terus berkuasa,

Maruah negara belakang kira.


Dedah-mendedah dah jadi budaya,

Semua nak jadi berita utama,

Akhbar perdana dua kali lima,

Tanpa mengira sempadan agama,

Yang penting kami buat kerja.


Ya Allah Yang Maha Adil Saksama,

Tunjukkan kebenaran buat kami semua,

Yang zalim pasti Kau azab dan laknat,

Yang benar pasti Kau kurnia rahmat.


Kebenaran pasti akan tersurat,

Semoga yang bersabar beroleh berkat,

Di akhirat kelak beroleh rehat..

When We Touched The Soft Spot.



Pemergian ku ke Rumah Anak-anak Yatim Nurul Ehsan, Sungai Siput pada asalnya untuk menimba pengalaman sebanyak mungkin yang tidak pernah terjangkau oleh fikiran, walaupun aku pernah mendengar perkhabaran yang mengatakan pengalaman di sana adalah sesuatu yang amat bermakna dan sukar untuk dilupakan. Kami diminta oleh Majlis Tertinggi Rancangan Khidmat Masyarakat, USM (RKMUSM) untuk mendapatkan sekurang-kurangnya seorang anak yatim untuk dijadikan adik angkat bagi menyelami kisah dan latar belakang mereka. Bagi diriku, ini adalah satu cabaran kerana seseorang yang mempunyai masalah peribadi seperti mereka agak sukar untuk mempercayai orang luar, apatah lagi berkongsi sesuatu yang peribadi. Jadi, aku tidak meletakkan sebarang harapan untuk mendapatkan adik angkat di sana.

Rombongan RKMUSM tiba di rumah kebajikan tersebut lebih kurang selepas masuknya waktu zuhur dan sambutan yang ala kadar. Aku melihat keceriaan terpancar jelas di mata anak-anak kecil tatkala melihat kedatangan kami di sana. Mereka amat teruja apabila abang-abang dan kakak-kakak angkat mereka datang lantas memberikan pelukan erat menunjukkan tanda rindu mereka yang sekian lama dipendam. Namun begitu, aku tertarik dek kecomelan dan kelincahan seorang anak kecil yang cuba mendapatkan perhatian kami. Dia menjadi tarikan kepada semua rakan-rakan ku yang lain. Ada yang bersalaman dengannya, mencuit lengan dan ada juga yang menarik pipinya yang gebu. Aku hanya melihat dari sudut yang jauh. Adik tersebut dikenali sebagai Iman.

Selesai solat zuhur berjemaah, kami diminta untuk berkumpul di suatu tempat bagi melakukan pengisian yang seterusnya iaitu sesi pengenalan diri. Aku lihat Iman keseorangan di surau dan tidak seperti yang lain, lincah untuk ke dewan. Lantas dengan penuh kemesraan aku mengajaknya bersama ku ke dewan. “Iman penat, tak larat nak pegi..” katanya. Aku mempelawa untuk mendukung tubuh kecil itu bagi membantunya bergerak ke dewan. Dengan hati yang terbuka, dia menyambut tangan ku dan memeluk dengan erat bagai pertama kali didukung. Aku senyum simpul melihat reaksinya yang positif.

Pada sebelah petangnya, kami diberi tugasan untuk mendapatkan adik-adik angkat dan cuba memperoleh maklumat tentang diri mereka. Tidak ada yang lain di hati kecil ku melainkan Iman yang masih lagi duduk bersama ku. Aku mendukungnya ke sungai di mana rakan-rakan ku yang lain membuat aktiviti bersama adik-adik mereka. Aku terkejut apabila melihat dirinya yang sebenarnya mempunyai kekurangan dari segi fizikal. Dia dikatakan berusia 8 tahun, tetapi mempunyai tubuh seorang kanak-kanak lelaki yang berusia 4 tahun kerana dia menghadapi masalah dengan pembentukan tulang. Aku dinasihatkan agar memegangnya dengan berhati-hati kerana tulang lembutnya agak sensitif. Selain itu, Iman tidak mempunyai tulang tengah di bahagian hidung yang membuatkan aku lebih sayu tatkala memerhatikannya. Terdapat juga parut-parut kekal di kepala, tangan, kaki dan beberapa tempat yang lain. Ini telah membuatkan diriku semakin terpanggil untuk menyelami tentang insan kerdil yang berada di samping ku ini.

Kami duduk di suatu agak jauh daripada yang lain. Di situ, aku mula menyentuh hal-hal peribadi Iman. Tetapi Iman masih tidak mahu memberikan apa-apa respons dan menyebabkan aku mula kelu. Dia kelihatan runsing dan kerap memberikan jelingan yang tajam setiap kali aku menyoal hal-hal berkenaan keluarganya. Aku tidak mahu memaksa, dia masih kecil dan sangat rapuh pertahanan emosinya. Aku menukar corak pendekatan terhadapnya dan bertanya tentang hobi, makanan kesukaannya, permainan yang digemarinya dan di selang seli dengan ayat-ayat yang lucu bagi menarik perhatiannya. Bibit-bibit kemesraan mula ditonjolkan oleh Iman. Dia memberikan respons yang baik dan semakin mesra dengan ku.

“Iman duduk sini baru 8 hari, Ibu yang hantar Iman dekat sini. Ibu tak suka Iman. Ibu tak sayangkan Iman lagi.” Katanya dengan nada yang sayu. Dia telah mula membuka cerita peribadinya kepada ku. Walaupun aku terkasima dengan kata-katanya, aku cuba mengawal perasaannya agar dia tidak berhenti meluahkan perasaan kepada ku. Untuk diringkaskan cerita ini, aku telah berjaya mencungkil sebahagian besar hal-hal peribadinya pada petang itu.

Nama diberi, Muhd Iman bin Zulfakar. Dia dilahirkan di Kuala Lumpur tetapi dibesarkan oleh keluarga angkat di Tambun, Ipoh. Iman tinggal bersama dengan dengan Emak (keluarga angkatnya) sedari kecil sehinggalah saat dia dibawa oleh ibu kandungnya untuk tinggal di rumah kebajikan tersebut. Aku berasa sangat hiba mendengar keluhan dan luahan hatinya sehinggakan aku menitiskan air mata jantan yang sangat jarang mengalir. Dia terlalu mentah untuk mengharungi onak dan duri dalam kehidupan ini, tapi dia kental dalam meneruskan kehidupannya yang aku rasa kurang bernasib baik.

Sepanjang aku di sana, Iman tidak pernah lepas daripada pandangan ku. Dia sentiasa di sisi ku kerana dia sangat memerlukan aku dalam tempoh dua hari satu malam rombongan kami di sana. Kami mandi bersama, akan bersama, bermain bersama, tidur bersama malah aku lah yang memakaikan pakaian dan menyisir rapi rambutnya. Aku sangat mengasihi insan kerdil tersebut. Tatkala selesai berdoa selepas solat berjemaah, aku memberikannya ciuman di dahi Iman tanda kasih ku kepadanya. Namun begitu, lawatan kami terlalu singkat. Terlalu banyak yang perlu disingkap dan terlalu banyak yang perlu dikongsi bersamanya. Aku telah meninggalkan nombor telefon dan alamat ku padanya dengan harapan dia akan menghubungi ku di saat dia memerlukan sokongan. Aku juga telah berjanji akan menghubunginya dan akan datang pada 2hb Dec 2010.

Pengalaman pendek di Rumah Anak-anak Yatim Nurul Ehsan telah banyak membuka lembaran baru dalam hidup ku. Aku semakin menyukai kanak-kanak dan menghargai insan-insan sepertinya. Lawatan tersebut juga talah menambahkan perasaan syukur ku kepada yang Maha Esa serta sentiasa menghargai kehidupan yang selesa setiap saat aku terjaga. Syukur Alhamdulillah. Tuhan ku yang maha Agung limpahkan lah rahmat mu kepada insan yang bernama Muhd Iman bin Zulfakar. Sesungguhnya hanya engkau sahaja yang Maha Mengetahui betapa kasihnya aku terhadap insan tersebut.



Menggamit Memori Manis Bersama Adik Iman. We Love you.

Syukur Selamanya

Hari ini sebelum kita mengatakan kata-kata yang tidak baik,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang tidak dapat berkata-kata sama sekali.

Sebelum kita mengeluh tentang rasa dari makanan,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang tidak punya apapun untuk dimakan.

Sebelum anda mengeluh tidak punya apa-apa,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang meminta-minta dijalanan.

Sebelum kita mengeluh bahawa kita buruk,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang berada pada keadaan yang terburuk di dalam hidupnya.

Sebelum mengeluh tentang suami atau isteri anda,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang memohon kepada Tuhan untuk diberikan teman hidup.

Hari ini sebelum kita mengeluh tentang hidup,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang meninggal terlalu cepat.

Sebelum kita mengeluh tentang anak-anak kita,
Fikirkan tentang seseorang yang sangat ingin mempunyai anak tetapi dirinya mandul.

Sebelum kita mengeluh tentang rumah yang kotor kerana pembantu tidak mengerjakan tugasnya,
Fikirkan tentang orang-orang yang tinggal dijalanan.

Dan di saat kita letih dan mengeluh tentang pekerjaan,
Fikirkan tentang pengangguran, orang-orang cacat yang berharap mereka mempunyai pekerjaan seperti kita.

Sebelum kita menunjukkan jari dan menyalahkan orang lain,
Ingatlah bahawa tidak ada seorangpun yang tidak berdosa.

Dan ketika kita sedang bersedih dan hidup dalam kesusahan,
Tersenyum dan berterima kasihlah kepada Tuhan bahawa kita masih hidup !

Bayi lahir dengan satu mata di Israel - sign of Dajjal?



(AS RECEIVED) - (MUST SEE AND READ) - (WORTH READING )


Alert Ummah, there is a 90% chance that we will see the Jewish Dajjal in our lifetime
(Sahih Bukhari: Book of afflictions, Volume 9, Book 88, Number 240)
Just look at the recent Map of Madinah city, if you find one, and you will see that there are 7 main entrances today leading to the city.ALERT Ummah!!!there is 90% chance that we will see the Jewish Dajjal in our lifetime!
See attached photo of the child for proof.





We are living at the end of times. we are already experiencing the minor signs of judgement day that preceed the appearance of the Major signs. Once these minor signs finish--know that 95% of these signs have already come to pass-- we will be encountering the Major signs immediately. One of these first signs amongst the Major ones is appearance of the Jewish Anti Christ or the Masih ad-Dajjal.

The affliction of this Jewish Messiah is so great that none from the times of Prophet Adam till the day of resurrection have or will create and spread that much affliction. His affliction will be so dangerous and so harmful that there is no Prophet of God who did not warn his ummah about the coming of this person. the Dajjal will be able to deceive the very elect, the very pious, the one who thinks he has faith in his/her heart. this generation is very very close to meet the Dajjal. Why? Because there are two specific signs that will appear in Madina as reported by our Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam), which will mark that the time for the appearance of Dajjal, he will appear or be born in the midnight . And these two Signs have already appeared!!!!

Here we provide to you the two specific traditions: Narrated Abdullah ibn Shafeeq who reported from Muhjin ibn Adraa who reported that the Prophet(saw) said, 
"The End/finish/khalaas day, and What do you know what the khalaas days is--the prophet repeats the same statement 3 times..Some one asked him, "what is the day of Khalaas?" . The Prophet then answered, "The Dajjal will come and will climb and will see Madina and then he will say to his companions, "Do you see that White Palace?That is the Mosque of Ahmad--another name of Prophet Muhammad--", Afterwards the Dajjal will come to Madina but will find that by its each entrance there is an armed angel ( who would not allow him entry)...... afterwards Madina will shake 3 times and there will not remain a hypocrite male or female nor will there remain a fasiq male or female who would not go out to the Dajjal (to join him), and that is the day of khalaas.
(An authentic tradition reported with a sahih isnad reported by Sheikh Mustafa Adwi in his work Al-Fitan wal Malaahim wa Asraatus S'aa) source: http://www.raddadi. com/madinah/ madinah.htm

During the time of the prophet the Masjidun Nabawi or the Mosque of Ahmad was very simple as it was built of mud bricks and had date leaves as its covering for the roof. It was just recently in our era that the Mosque of Prophet was expanded and was given a very grand and beautiful structure. Anyone who has travelled to Madina in recent times will confirm that upon reaching the vacinities of this holy city, the Mosque of the Prophet appears as a pearl or as a palace amongst other building from a far. Muslims take this as an awakening token, Wake and think seriously, the other sign the prophet fortold regarding the closeness of Dajjal's appearance is that Madina at that time--at the time of Dajjal's appearance ;

-will have 7 main entrances:  
The Prophet said, "The terror caused by Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal will not enter Medina and at that time Medina will have seven gates and there will be two angels at each gate (guarding them). (Sahih Bukhari: Book of afflictions, Volume 9, Book 88, Number 240)
Just look at the recent Map of Madinah city, if you find one, and you will see that there are 7 main entrances today leading to the city.
One road coming from Jeddah,
the other coming from Makkah,
another coming from Rabigh,
one from the airport,
another from Tabouk,
and two from surrounding areas.

Muslims get up, Know the Jews better, Avoid them, Be prepared to face them intellectually, politically and economically wise.

p/s ; Allah's Apostle said,"The Earth was shown to me until i saw the east of the east and the west of the west[cant recall the order], and the authority of my ummah dominated all what I saw."{Muslim-Ahmad] During the time of the prophet the east of the east was china and the west of the west was France . history is a witness that the Islamic conquest did not reach that far. However this will happen in the near future inshallah when once again God honors Muslims.

USD 100,000 (RM357,000)

JAKARTA, Aug 12 — A suspect shot dead in Indonesia last weekend was not Islamic militant Noordin Mohammad Top and he is still at large, police said today, dashing hopes for a breakthrough in a hunt for the mastermind of a string of attacks.

The man killed in the raid was identified as Ibrohim, who worked as a florist in the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Jakarta and is suspected to be the inside man on the suicide bombings at two luxury hotels in Jakarta last month.

“We checked samples with (Ibrohim’s) family in Cilimus and it’s a 100 per cent match,” Eddy Saparwoko, head of Indonesia’s Disaster Victim Identification unit, told a news conference. Cilimus is a district in Cirebon in West Java.

Top is believed to have planned last month’s near-simultaneous on the JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotels, which killed nine people and wounded 53.

The police were at first confident that Noordin had been killed during an 18-hour siege at a remote farmhouse in Central Java. However, they said today that forensic tests now showed they had killed an accomplice, not Noordin.

Media reports quoting police sources said Noordin probably fled a few hours before the anti-terrorism unit raided the house. Police confirmed that a suspect had told them that Noordin was in the house.

National police spokesman Nanan Soekarna said the authorities believed Noordin was still in Indonesia and expected him to keep on trying to launch attacks. “The assumption is that he will keep on doing so,” he told reporters.

Noordin Mohammed Top Killed. A lie?

Noordin Mohammed Top

JAKARTA, Aug 8 — Indonesian police have shot dead a man suspected to be leading Islamic militant Noordin Mohammed Top during raids in Central Java and were trying to identify his body, police sources said today.

A raid was still going on at a remote house in rice fields in Temanggung where three to four suspected militants were thought to be holed up.

After an overnight standoff and sporadic exchanges of gunfire, shots and explosions could be heard as TV footage showed heavily armed black-clad police from the anti-terrorism unit creeping towards the house, some sheltering behind shields.

Local TV network TVOne quoted an unnamed police source as saying that Noordin may still be in the house after being shot and wounded.

Separately, police said they had killed two suspected militants and found up to 500kg of bombs during a raid on a house in the Bekasi area near the capital Jakarta.

Malaysian-born Noordin is a prime suspect thought to be behind the near simultaneous suicide attacks on two luxury Jakarta hotels.

The July 17 attacks on the JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton killed nine and wounded 53, including Indonesians and foreigners, and broke a four-year lull.

Police have launched a series of raids since yesterday and a police source close to the investigation into the hotel attacks told Reuters the man suspected to be Noordin was killed during a raid on a workshop in Temanggung, over 250 miles southeast of Jakarta.

"He was shot dead," the source said, adding that raids in the area had led police to the house in Bekasi, just east of the capital, where bombs had been found. A Reuters correspondent in Bekasi heard a loud blast from the cordoned-off area.

A source in Indonesia's anti-terrorism unit Detachment 88 also said police believed Noordin had been killed.

"I think this is very significant. Hopefully the person in Temanggung is Noordin," said national police spokesman Nanan Soekarna.

Two men had been shot dead in Bekasi after throwing a pipe bomb at police — one a suspected bomb-maker and the other linked to a 2004 attack on the Australian embassy, said Soekarna.

He said two other suspects believed to be involved in recruiting suicide bombers were still on the run.

National Police Chief Bambang Hendarso Danuri said police had captured three men in Central Java and three men in Jakarta during the raids.

He said the bombs appeared to have been prepared for use in a car bomb attack on "a very particular target", but did not elaborate.

Soekarna said police had identified the two suicide bombers who carried out the hotel attacks — 19-year-old Danny Dwi Permana from Bogor in the Marriott attack and 28 year-old Nana Ihwa Maulana from Pandeglang in the Ritz-Carlton bombing.

Yesterday, police had said two men who were believed to be Noordin's bodyguards had been arrested in a workshop in a market in Temanggung and had led police to a house in the same area where there had been a shoot-out with suspected militants.

Intelligence officials say Top and fellow Malaysian Azahari Husin, a bomb-maker who was killed in a 2005 police raid, were leaders in the Jemaah Islamiah militant network, blamed for a series of bomb attacks in Indonesia since 2002.

Noordin is believed to have planned previous bomb attacks on the JW Marriott in Jakarta in 2003, on the Australian Embassy in Jakarta in 2004 and in Bali in 2005.

Do u know about Pneumonia?

What is pneumonia?

Pneumonia is a lung infection that can make you very sick. You may cough, run a fever, and have a hard time breathing. For most people, pneumonia can be treated at home. It often clears up in 2 to 3 weeks. But older adults, babies, and people with other diseases can become very ill. They may need to be in the hospital.

You can get pneumonia in your daily life, such as at school or work. This is called community-based pneumonia. You can also get it when you are in a hospital or nursing home. This is called hospital-based pneumonia. It may be more severe because you already are ill. This topic focuses on pneumonia you get in your daily life.


Illustration of the lungs

What causes pneumonia?

Germs called bacteria or viruses usually cause pneumonia.

Pneumonia usually starts when you breathe the germs into your lungs. You may be more likely to get the disease after having a cold or the flu. These illnesses make it hard for your lungs to fight infection, so it is easier to get pneumonia. Having a long-term, or chronic, disease like asthma, heart disease, cancer, or diabetes also makes you more likely to get pneumonia.

What are the symptoms?

Symptoms of pneumonia caused by bacteria usually come on quickly. They may include:

  • Cough. You will likely cough up mucus (sputum) from your lungs. Mucus may be rusty or green or tinged with blood.
  • Fever.
  • Fast breathing and feeling short of breath.
  • Shaking and "teeth-chattering" chills. You may have this only one time or many times.
  • Chest pain that often feels worse when you cough or breathe in.
  • Fast heartbeat.
  • Feeling very tired or feeling very weak.
  • Nausea and vomiting.
  • Diarrhea.

When you have mild symptoms, your doctor may call this "walking pneumonia."

Older adults may have different, fewer, or milder symptoms. They may not have a fever. Or they may have a cough but not bring up mucus. The main sign of pneumonia in older adults may be a change in how well they think. Confusion or delirium is common. Or, if they already have a lung disease, that disease may get worse.

Symptoms caused by viruses are the same as those caused by bacteria. But they may come on slowly and often are not as obvious or as bad.

How is pneumonia diagnosed?

Your doctor will ask you about your symptoms and do a physical exam. He or she may order a chest X-ray and a blood test. This is usually enough for your doctor to know if you have pneumonia. You may need more tests if you have bad symptoms, are an older adult, or have other health problems. In general, the sicker you are, the more tests you will have.

Your doctor may also test mucus from your lungs to find out what germ is causing your pneumonia. Finding the exact germ can help your doctor choose the best medicine for you.

How is it treated?

Your doctor will give you medicines called antibiotics. These almost always cure pneumonia caused by bacteria. You need to take all of your antibiotics so you get well. Do not stop taking them because you feel better. Take them exactly as your doctor tells you.

Pneumonia can make you feel very sick. But after you take antibiotics, you should start to feel much better. Call your doctor if you do not start to feel better after 2 to 3 days of antibiotics. Call your doctor right away if you feel worse.

There are things you can do to feel better during your treatment. Get plenty of rest and sleep, and drink lots of liquids. Do not smoke. If your cough keeps you awake at night, talk to your doctor about using cough medicine.

You may need to go to the hospital if you have bad symptoms, a weak immune system, or another serious illness.

Pneumonia caused by a virus usually cannot be treated with antibiotics. Home treatment, such as rest and taking care of your cough, is the only treatment.

How can you prevent pneumonia?

If you are older than 65, you smoke, or you have a heart or lung problem, you may want to get a pneumococcal vaccine. It may not keep you from getting pneumonia. But if you do get pneumonia, you probably will not be as sick.

You can also lower your chances of getting pneumonia by staying away from people who have the flu, colds, measles, or chickenpox. You may get pneumonia after you have one of these illnesses.

Home Treatment

Home treatment is important for recovery from pneumonia. The following measures can help you recover and avoid complications, such as further infection or a buildup of fluid in the space between the lung and chest wall (pleural effusion).

While you are at home:

  • Get plenty of rest and prevent dehydration by drinking plenty of fluids.
  • Take care of your cough if it is making it difficult for you to rest. A cough is one way your body gets rid of the infection, and you should not try to eliminate coughing unless it is severe enough to make breathing difficult, cause vomiting, or prevent rest.
  • Consider taking acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) or aspirin to help reduce fever and make you feel more comfortable. Do not give aspirin to anyone younger than 20 because of the risk of Reye's syndrome.

Do not give cough and cold medicines to a child younger than 2 unless your child’s doctor has told you to. If your child’s doctor tells you to give a medicine, be sure to follow what he or she tells you to do.

Always check whether any over-the-counter cough or cold medicines you are taking contain acetaminophen. If they do, make sure the acetaminophen you are taking in your cold medicine, plus any other acetaminophen you may be taking, is not higher than the daily recommended dose. Ask your doctor or pharmacist how much you can take every day.

Your doctor may want to see you after a week of treatment to make sure you are getting better. Be sure to contact your doctor if you do not feel better, your cough gets worse, you have shortness of breath or a fever, you feel weak, or you feel faint when you stand up.

Tuhan sedang memerhatikan segalanya di Perak



V. Sivakumar ( Speaker dewan Perak )

Saya mengucapkan jutaan terima kasih kepada semua kawan-kawan yang memberi semangat kepada saya. Dorangan dan petunjuk daripada daripada kalian semua amat saya hargai sepanjang hayat saya.

Saya juga mengucapkan terima kasih kepada ADUN-ADUN Perak yang berjuang bersama-sama saya dalam mempertahankan sistem demokrasi di negeri yang tercinta. Saya cukup bangga dengan semangat dan keberanian mereka dalam menghadapi situasi yang genting pada 7 Mei 2009. Syabas dan taniah!

Puak-puak yang merancang konspirasi untuk merampas kuasa speaker secara fizikal harus berasa malu. Kekasaran telah digunakan dalam strategi rampasan kuasa yang berlaku pada kali yang kedua di Perak.

Mula-mula kuasa eksekutif dirampas kemudian kuasa legislatif juga dirampas. Pihak ini akan mendapat balasan yang sewajarnya.

Saya percaya yang benar akan tetap menang tidak lama lagi. Tuhan memerhatikan segala-galanya yang sedang berlaku di bumi Perak ini. Yang bersalah akan tetap dihakimi dalam Mahkamah Tuhan. Yang zalim akan tetap akan menghadapi padahnya.

Sekali lagi saya ucapkan terima kasih kepada semua yang bersama-sama dengan kami. HIDUP RAKYAT!

Hidup Mengkianati Rakyat Adalah Serupa Mati
Mati Membela Rakyat Adalah Serupa Hidup

Just One


One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake a dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.
One smile can begins a friendship,
One handclasp can lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal.
One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam light a room.
One candle wipe out darkness,
One laugh can conquer gloom.
One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.
One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what's true.

Kabinet Malaysia.




YANG di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin bergambar dengan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak dan Timbalannya, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, serta anggota Kabinet lain selepas istiadat pengurniaan surat cara pelantikan dan mengangkat sumpah jawatan dan taat setia serta sumpah menyimpan rahsia menteri dan timbalan menteri di Balairong Seri, Istana Negara di sini, hari ini. Barisan Kabinet baru yang diumumkan semalam oleh Najib menampilkan 28 menteri dan 40 timbalan menteri bagi 25 kementerian.

Diharapkan dengan tertubuhnya sebuah kabinet baru, yang bertindak sebagai badan ekskutif atau badan pelaksana ini mampu mencapai matlamat dan menangai semua masalah di dalaman mahupun drpd luar.

Selamat Bersemadi.


Kemenangan Dato Seri Ir Haji Mohamad Nizar Jamaluddin bagi kerusi Parlimen P059 Bukit Gantang dengan majoriti yang meningkat hampir sekali ganda daripada PRU12 yg lepas menunjukkan rakyat telah muak dan cuak dengan politik Umno!

Terbukti, rakyat menolak permohonan mereka bertiga apabila BN kalah di Bukit Gantang dengan majoriti yang sangat besar iaitu 2,789 undi. Kini apa yang akan dibuat oleh Najib dan Zambry khasnya selepas rakyat menolak permohonan mereka.

Perjuangan Umno/BN yang kerapkali bertukar arah dan bersifat adhoc keputusannya akan menjadi semakin tidak relevan pada rakyat Malaysia. Umno akan terpupus dengan sendirinya. Sementara itu peranan Nizar akan bertambah dan karier politiknya akan bertambah cerah.

Kemenangan Nizar cetuskan inspirasi baru kepada Pas dan Pakatan Rakyat. Ia juga ukuran bahawa rakyat mempercayai ketelusan dan keikhlasan perjuangan Nizar dan Pas.
