To the contrary, blogger will held another view. Just replace NAA word from blogger to Malaysia newspaper, change whatever emotional to "propaganda". And this is what you get. :)

I don’t (read Mainstream newspaper). I don’t waste my time. The few pieces that people print for me are just rubbish.[...]

Our mainstream newspaper are really not up to standard. When they put up something, it’s not something that they want to discuss in a very intellectual way. It’s more because of their propaganda- the language they use. Why should I read all this rubbish? When the standard of our mainstream newspaper is upgraded, then probably I will look at what is written. But anyway, they are a minority. My concern is for the majority.

Nazri has committed too much of [ DELETED ] that he can't afford to switch side anymore, so he has to stand firm alongside Pak Lah or otherwise, who is going to accept him?

Padang Renggas ppl, stand up and vote against him, we don't need morons to represent us in the Parliament.

I think Aniza Damis did a really good job there, kudos to her.

I believe Malaysia is one of the rare few countries where law ministers openly curse in interviews. What excellent decorum.

Even a journalist is smarter than him...

Hamid Albar didnt warn Nazri about interviews?

After reading that interview, I find that our de-facto Law Minister is somewhat biased, arrogant and unassumingly boorish towards the opinions of those who are not part of the majority.

So the question would be how are we to somehow reach the majority to garner enough support for him to listen to us.

Another hartal, perhaps?

Unfortunately the majority of Malaysians are dumb, so forget about garnering any support from them, Nazri probably know that when he speaks. Mahathir's right, "The people deserve the government they get".

To the hall of infamy bedecked by such as khairy, taib, deros and badruddin, add nazri. Is this the best that Umno can produce? Woe betide this country.

Nazri spoke about the majority. How can he use that as an excuse when he himself doesn't know if the majority would have voted against his stand if they know the truth which is what everyone is clamouring for?

True to arrogance, he knows there's no way they will get the chance to do so because his administration is making sure the road to truth about the video is being paved with spikes and traps.

He talks about authenticating the video first and offering protection to the whistleblower. If someone can command the UTK to blow up a translator, what protection can prevail to safeguard a whistleblower in the matter of nepotism in the highest judiciary office of the state? They can't even provide vests to the police as a routine budget.

Furthermore, how does the five minutes missing segment invalidate the nine minutes present segment? He already knows the full length won't be forthcoming to protect the whistleblower and therefore he can now say in advance that in the absence of that condition which Putrajaya has set ahead of the deadline, there will be no case. The rakyat have already drawn their conclusion when the terms of the panel were drawn up in such a ludicrous way they puzzle even a former IGP, himself a lawyer trained in buckingham, to boot. What a sandiwara.

He talks about separation of powers; why didn't he ask the said judge to make his own public denial when the latter communicated through him on account he was the defacto 'law minister'?

And who in the judiciary are the lawyers and rakyat to approach if the matter at hand is the chief judge? Who knows how many others down the line have benefited from such backdoor arrangements? Now the rakyat will also ask how many cases that went to court have ended with compromised judgements. Who can honestly live on with that sort of question?

That so many lawyers have walked the March of September and so many rakyat have petitioned for Royal intervention go to show that the matter is grave because what we are seeing today is the collapse of the last bastion of judiciary independence.

Indeed, Malik Imtiaz's "might for right" as opposed to "might is right" says it all. If a government thinks it is enough to be mighty in order to be right, it is sorely mistaken for how will it be different from your local schoolyard bully? Did the populace elect a government to bully and intimidate them?

The majority that Nazri is trying to draw strength from existed only at the last poll when this and many other things didn't yet happen. In this particular matter of injudicious judiciary, the majority matter naught because you can put a hundred kampung folks in a room with one lawyer, those folks will not be able to delve into what is at stake as deftly as the lawyer whose training has been in that field. He should know that, isn't he a lawyer himself? Furthermore, the kampung folks who are now juggling between shrinking incomes just to survive will have other things on their mind and therefore will depend on that lawyer in the same room as them, namely this country, to defend them in the event of facing a chief judge whose promotion has been called to question, and that's not just because of laziness to write judgements.

The them-vs-us we have presaged before has come out in full view from this interview in which a minister cum lawyer has himself been cross-examined and ended up crossing himself out. The umno govt is disconnected from the rakyat on matters of principle, even representation. They arrogate to themselves what is considered right and because of that stand, they conclude nothing that comes from the opposition can be right. Is this reasonable?

Their practice of denials has also taken a laughably juvenile form; if they don't like how you present something, they don't want to entertain you. It must be on eight-point garamond because if you use fourteen-point arial, they will say you're trying to be bigger than them, the elite elected by the majority. And while it is alright for them to spew profanities on others, vice-versas are vices for which one can get arrested. Or rubbished. Such fine standards of justice and intelligence, one must add. We are already behind Indonesia, the next batch of foreign workers will smugly attest.

A good leader is a humble man. He realizes that it is Godsend to have people tell him off in no uncertain terms that he's doing something wrong, or not doing the right things. How else can he know whether he's making the right impact for them and nation? You can't wait for a summary vote result in four years time just to sum up the three things done right against the three hundred done wrong in order to say your administration is therefore justified to continue running the country, can you?

A bad leader does the opposite of a good leader, and lacks the confidence to tackle the principles at hand, perpetually holding on to form over substance in order to continue his own miserable existence and extend the pathetic lifespan of his own political agenda.

Whether the feedback or complaint is couched in nice words preceded by supercilious honorifics such as 'Yang Amat Berhormats', or words uttered by those felicitous Umno MPs in that abbatoir called parliament, or even whispered atop Brokeback Mountain on a rainy afternoon, it doesn't matter; they will not define who is the good or bad leader. Only the facts and truth and the principles of integrity, fairness and good governance will pay homage to good leaders.

No facts and truths will come out from a government intent on being opaque and obsolete before the rakyat.

Umno is both.

Putrajaya is trying to bury this fiasco; it should ask itself how it can bury radioactive waste. The stink, taint and toxicity will last many lifetimes and investment rebuffs. The lawyers won't forget it.

Better keep an eye on those C4 stock level.

I think the major issue with the Opposition is that they are not going to the people as they have been in the past.

Instead, I think the Opposition is stuck in the online media. Adding to that, they have yet to actually have a traveling crew that campaigns in the rural areas, and focus more on the urban areas to explain their stances.

And in the case of the Opposition actually holding on to the ground they gain, I have yet to get a proper explanation from any party on how Terengganu was lost, and how Keadilan lost all but one seat.

UMNO states that the hype of Anwar died down. So will this issue with the judiciary, unless the Opposition in every state goes out to explain to the people them implications of such an act.

I am not saying that the people are stupid or ignorant. I'm saying that they spend too much time looking into that biased idiot box controlled by our Minister of Misinformation and Propaganda.

Unless the Opposition breaks that monopoly by actually doing live speeches....honestly, the Opposition will not hold on to this issue long enough for the next election.

Q: You don’t think 1,000 is enough?
A: 1,000 of 13,000 — is that a majority? What’s the big deal?

In a democracy, the minority cannot control the majority. The minority does not speak for the majority.


----------------------------
1). Cabinet = 10 ~ 20 members

2). Malaysians = 25 millions

3). According to democracy, Nazri should agree to this equation;
Cabinet (ministries) = minority, Malaysians (people) = majority

Therefore, Malaysia is not democratic for this reason;

Cabinet (minority) > Malaysians (25 mil)

* > = Greater than (in term of power and control)

Dear aput83,
It is common sense for opposition NOT to waste resources on rural area. The rural area are too content to government.
Do you know that all the living pressure are build up on the city? Nobody care if the blade not on their neck. Until the petrol/diesel/fertilizer/etc subsidiaries dissapear, with skyrocket living cost, it is not easy for opposition to deal with this "buy over" tactics.
