Law and Colourless People

-

For the past 2 weeks events that have taken place in our country are simply amazing. After 50 years of independence, we are still indulged with race, religion and colour. As inspired by our forefathers aspiration the path that we are on is not on 'original' direction.

Why?

Why do people become so narrow minded?

What are they going to acheive alone in this country?

The basic principles of the formation of our country are based on the interests of people as a whole. Please remember this, my dear commarades.

We do not want to have another May 13th. We will not. As Faris Noor had advocated we already passed that dark phase of history. Let's the history to be remained there. We have to move on and Malaysians are already moved on. The 2008 election results had proved that.

We want to be a developed nation. Fine.

To acheive that we have to be open and willing to discuss. We need to be brave. Yes, we need to have guts if we want to acheive that goal.

Are we on that direction? Sadly not.

What is the point of we just playing with the phrase so called "developed nation" when we are still not on that direction. We miserably failed to observe the importance of the rule of law which has been created to safeguard the interests of mankind disregard of race, religion and colour.

Malaysian irrespective of race or religion is a good friends but then the politicians have make used the situation for their political gains. We must blame a politicians for their racist attitude and use the democratic process to show our disatisfaction. One of the way is to out-do the race based political system and use of voting power to change the future.

Mr Barack Obama will be creating history in the great state of America. If he became the president of USA than he carries with him a 400 year of African American history to the Oval House. With him he carries the inspiration of Martin Luther King " I dream " visions, with him he shoulder the struggle of Rosa Park and with him the inspiration of many other giants of black civil liberties movement in America. He will not be alone there in the Oval House, with him there multitude of ethnic in his administration who will work regardless their race for the country that they love and will defend. we can said anything about them but can this ever happen in any other country who claim that they have higher morality than any other society. can this ever happen in this country that i love without condition. can there ever be a chiness prime minister or indian army chief in this country?

Smart Security, Free Society: Malaysia’s Data Dilemma

-
In today’s digitally driven world, national security is no longer confined to borders or traditional threats. Cyberattacks, disinformation campaigns, and asymmetric warfare have become the new frontiers of conflict. Malaysia, strategically located in Southeast Asia and increasingly exposed to regional tensions and internal vulnerabilities, must strengthen its security apparatus. However, doing so must not come at the cost of civil liberties. Malaysia can enhance its security strategy by leveraging insights from advanced data platforms like those pioneered by Palantir Technologies, while maintaining strong democratic oversight to safeguard the fundamental freedoms protected by the Federal Constitution. Palantir Technologies, a U.S.-based company, gained prominence in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. Its core software, Gotham, was designed to integrate fragmented intelligence and provide real-time, actionable insights to military and intelligence agencies. Over the years,...

Syringe Attacks in Malaysia and France: Random Violence or Terrorism? - Part 3

-
The syringe attack on the 12-year-old son of Pandan MP and former Economy Minister, Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli, has shaken Malaysia. What initially appeared as a rare and bizarre incident now echoes a disturbing pattern witnessed abroad, notably in France. In June 2025, during the Fête de la Musique festival, over 145 people across France reported being pricked with syringes in crowded public areas. In both cases, the weapon of fear was not a gun or bomb but a syringe. When viewed together, the Rafizi incident and the mass needle attacks in France reveal an alarming global trend of unconventional, psychological violence that leaves behind not just physical uncertainty but emotional trauma. The question we must now ask is: are these acts simply random criminality, or should they be treated with the gravity of terrorist attacks? A Pattern Beyond Borders In France, the attacks spanned multiple cities, with 13 confirmed cases in Paris alone. Victims included women, men, and even min...
