A forumer from Malaysia mentioned Dr 10% compared to Tunku...Perhaps Tunku made a very bad mistake by giving citizenship to Mahathir' s grandfather, who was from Kerala, India. Tunku brought independence, Dr M brought illegals Partners in crime in citizenship-for-votes |

http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/219372 Granting citizenship to Chinese and Indians was a condition for independence. In return, the special position of Malays was recognised in the Constitution. Fact, granting instant citizenship to every Filipino Muslim who got off the boat from Mindanao, Sulu or Palawan, including terrorists, with the right to vote. Dr Mahathir. Nick name 10% used various crooked strategies to win elections to stay in power for 22 years and then rob the country blind. Dr 10% wouldn' t admit any wrongdoing. In doing so. No doubt, such crooked scheme was an attempt to shift the political equation in Sabah in favour of the Muslims. With this Umno' s entry in 1991, the state registered a spike in population. This resulted in the ouster of the then Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) govt in 1994. Illegals were given ICs within days by Mahathir, arriving by boats. The evidence revealed at the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) clearly bears testimony to the ground reality. Mahathir as Premier. Can' t even explain why?. Sabah' s population increase quadrupled between 1970 and 2010, and why Muslims made up the entire increase? Mahathir with Indian blood, is purely to populate on his crooked promises after promises.

The Dr was scheming as he was authoritarian when in power. You probably never heard of Operation Lallang and the many other detentions under the Internal Security Act? To say that he only jailed Anwar shows you are not that well versed in Malaysian politics,

ISIS militant group - Estimates vary from 60 to almost 150 for Malaysian fighters. This high end of these figures approximates and yet population of Malaysia is barely one 10th that of Indonesia. In other words, Malaysians seem to be joining ISIS at a higher rate than Indonesians. In all the more perplexing, given how often M' sian Prime Minister Najib Razak waxes lyrical on the international stage about moderation and how M' sia is the epitome of multi-ethnic and inter-religious harmony, as he continues to press a nebulous " Global Movement of Moderates" agenda. What accounts for the appeal of ISIS in " moderate" Malaysia? To answer this question, let us start with the official M' sian view on the causes of international terrorism, especially religiously motivated terrorism. M' sia' s Muslim leaders have frequently singled out US foreign policies that affect the Muslim world - particularly the invasion of Iraq, Washington' s unstinting support for Israel, lack of sympathy for the Palestinian cause, and war in Afghanistan - as one of the main causes of terrorism today. To be sure, much can be said about how these factors have inflamed Muslim sentiment worldwide. Look more challenge, religiously inspired terrorism in general, and ISIS in particular, poses for M' sia. while that " external factors" are important, the main causes for concern may well originate within Malaysia' s own borders. Four observations can be drawn from the M' sian domestic context, speaking on conditions that exist for virulent ideologies like that of ISIS to potentially find sympathy and a following. 1st) In 2013 Pew Global Attitudes Survey, it was noted that " in M' sia... roughly a quarter of Muslims (27%) take the view that attacks on civilians are sometimes or often justified" . However, if we add to this number the 12% who take the view that violence is " rarely justified" in defence of Islam (as opposed to never justified), essentially 39% of M' sian Muslims surveyed believed that violence can be justified against enemies of Islam. Significantly, Indonesians polled only 18% on the same question (1%, " often" 5%, " sometimes" and 12%, " rarely" ). In another 2013 poll conducted by the Pew Research Centre, " The world' s Muslims: religion, politics and society" , a mere 8% of M' sians expressed concern about Muslim extremism while 31% were concerned about Christian extremism. Reading this survey, I could not help but come away with one thought - 39% of the M' sian Muslims surveyed believed that violence can be justified against enemies of Islam. What is the relevance of the figures in the M' sian context?. 2nd) Islam has unfortunately become heavily politicised in M' sia. M' sia' s dominant political party, Umno, is a Malay-Muslim party that was created with the main objective, at least in theory, of promoting and defending Malay-Muslim supremacy. According to the party' s narrative, this supremacy is coming under siege from various cultural (read: non-Malay vernacular education) and religious (read: non-Muslim) quarters and hence has to be staunchly defended. Given that M' sia has a Malay-Muslim majority population, it should come as no surprise that Umno' s chief political opponents are also Malay-Muslim parties which equally brandish religious credentials as a source of legitimacy. Let me be clear: Islam casts a pale shadow over M' sia today not because it is Islam, or even Islamism per se, but because its proponents (and " defenders" ) are articulating a particularly exclusive brand of Islam that is divorced from the religion' s historically enlightened traditions, and which has no intention to encourage pluralism or compromise. The net effect of this is that non-Muslim M' sians are marginalised as Islamist parties try to " out-Islam" at each other. As Umno struggles to cling to power by focusing on its religious credentials above all else, religion has become heavily politicised and is viewed as a zero-sum game. 3rd) This politicisation of Islam is taking place against a backdrop of an exceedingly strong state which has taken it upon itself to police Islam and curtail any expression of faith that departs from the mainstream Shafi' i tradition. Yes, the ummah may be universal and Islamic confessional traditions may be diverse but, in M' sia, there is very little room for compromise beyond the " Islam" sanctioned by the state. The Shi' ite tradition is legally proscribed, and several smaller Islamic sects are deemed deviant and, hence, banned. All this happens despite the existence of constitutional provisions for freedom of worship. 4th) Rather than extol the virtues and conciliatory features of Islam' s rich tradition, many Malay-Muslim political leaders have instead chosen to use religion to amplify difference, to reinforce extreme interpretations of Malay-Muslim denizen rights, and to condemn the " other" (non-Muslims) as a threat to these rights. For fear of further erosion of legitimacy and political support, the Malay-Muslim leadership of the country has in its public statements circled the wagons, allowing vocal right-wing ethno-nationalist and religious groups to preach incendiary messages against Christians and Hindus with impunity. In extreme cases, they have even flippantly referred to fellow M' sians who are adherents of other religious faiths as " enemies of Islam" . Even state-sanctioned Friday sermons have occasionally taken to referring to non-Muslim M' sians as " enemies of Islam" . Against this backdrop, the findings of the Pew surveys cited earlier take on a greater, more disconcerting meaning. Of course, not all in the Malay-Muslim leadership engage in this kind of narrow religio-political discourse. I know that a few of them privately sympathise with non-Muslim consternation about how the right to freedom of religion is being blatantly undermined. The problem is, they dare not speak out publicly, thus creating the impression that they support the majoritarian narrative of exclusion of non-Muslims. So how all this related to ISIS and M' sia' s concern for the grp' s growing influence on its shores?. My point is this is it any surprise, given the four observations enumerated above, that the climate of religio-political discourse in M' sia today would lend itself to the pull of extremist ideas of a grp such as ISIS? To be sure, M' sia has a very competent internal security apparatus. But security measures alone are insufficient to deal with the threat the country currently faces. Indeed, without changing the way M' sian society views and articulates Islam to allow for critical engagement of extremist ideas, the utility of security measures is limited at best. Worse still, they might end up feeding an extremist mindset. While critical engagement will not eradicate the problem, I believe it will go some distance in reducing it. But in order to set a new tone for public discourse on Islam, pluralism and critical engagement of extremist ideas, it will require political will and leadership at the very top. The Malay Mail reported recently that M' sia' s top counter-terrorism official opined that an ISIS attack on M' sia " was just a matter of time" . If so, the Malaysian authorities would be well advised to consider that the appeal of ISIS may not be attributed to developments in Syria or Iraq, or US foreign policy in the Muslim world alone. It could well start at home, where the political and social climate that allows exclusivist right-wing groups and politicians to speak and act with impunity is the same one that will provide recruits and sympathisers for insidious organisations such as ISIS.

Hard to say. It's depends on the deputy pm, who was once his man, want to support him or not. If not lucky, think he will die with "eye open". Not only can not see the bridge, also can not see his son become pm! Lol !
