Malaysia Muslims Burn Hindu Cow Head in Protest of Temple Construction!

The article below was take from The Associated Press. It is a clear picture on how racist the Malays in Malaysia has become. Tolerance between the Malays and other races is growing so thin. In Malaysia, it is all right for the Malays to take issue as and when they like but the other races cannot do so, for fear of being imprisoned under the draconian ISA law where one can be held under custody as long as the Malaysian Home Minister deems right. Read below the comment about how noises from the Hindu temple might disturb their neighbors. What about the loud prayers coming from mosques 5 times a day? Hmm, its so easy for him to see the speck in his neighbors eyes but he cant see the log lodged in his own. The sad thing is that the Malaysian government is actually afraid of these lowly morons and will probably not go ahead with the temple construction. Malaysia is going down the drains and it is time for the non-Muslims to bail out. If things are this bad in 2009, I cant imagine how bad life will be in 10 years time. Do not be surprised if Malaysia turns out to be the next Iran!

Malaysia Muslims protest proposed Hindu temple

By VIJAY JOSHI (AP) – 33 minutes ago

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Dozens of Malaysian Muslims paraded Friday with the head of a cow, a sacred animal in Hinduism, in a dramatic protest against the proposed construction of a Hindu temple in their neighborhood.

The unusual protest by some 50 people in Shah Alam, the capital of Selangor state, raises new fears of racial tensions in this multiethnic Muslim-majority country where Hindus comprise about 7 percent of the 27 million population.

The demonstrators who marched from a nearby mosque after Friday prayers dumped the cow head outside the gates of the state government headquarters. Selangor adjoins Kuala Lumpur.

Protesters stomped on the head and spat on it before leaving the site, Xavier Jeyakumar, a state government official in charge of non-Muslim affairs, told The Associated Press.

"This is a sign of disrespect, insensitivity and a huge insult to the Indian community," he said.

Such an overt display of religious discord is almost unheard of in Malaysia, which has carefully nurtured racial harmony among its three main ethnic groups, Malay Muslims, Chinese and Indians, since 1969 when the country suffered its worst racial riots.

The demonstrators said their neighborhood, Section 23, has a 90 percent Muslim population and building a Hindu temple there was inappropriate.

"If there is blood you (the government) will be responsible," Malaysiakini, an independent news Web site, quoted a protest leader Ibrahim Haji Sabri as saying.

"I challenge (Selangor government leaders) to go on with the temple construction. I guarantee bloodshed and racial tension," Ibrahim said amid chants of "Allahu Akbar," or God is great, the Malaysian Insider, another news Web site, reported.

Both sites posted pictures of the protest showing a bloodied cow head.

Muslim Malays and the Chinese and Indians — who are Christian, Hindu, Sikh and Muslim — have generally been careful about not offending each others' religions.

But racial tensions have risen in recent years amid complaints by the minorities that their rights are being eroded along with the rising influence of Islamic hard-liners.

Human Resource Minister S. Subramaniam said the incident infuriated Prime Minister Najib Razak, who asked the national police chief to investigate. Witnesses said police stood by and did nothing to stop the protest.

The demonstration, which occurred days before Malaysia celebrates its independence day on Monday, comes amid a new campaign by Najib to promote national integration by emphasizing equality of all races.

"The prime minister said he was very upset over the incident and wants it to be nipped in the bud," Subramaniam said in a statement.

The protesters condemned Chief Minister Khalid Ibrahim of Selangor, one of four states controlled by a three-party opposition coalition that includes an Islamic party. The demonstrators described Khalid, a Muslim, as a traitor to Islam. It was not immediately clear if they were affiliated to any political group.

The Malaysian Insider quoted a protest leader, Mohammad Zurit Bin Ramli, as saying a temple would disturb Muslim practices.

"The temple will disrupt our daily activities like prayers. We cannot concentrate with the sounds coming from the temple," he said.

Worlds Most Powerful Women - Any Malaysians?

Forbes published its list of the World's 100 Most Powerful Women and behold, not that I expected any, but there's an Indian and an Indonesian.

The highest ranking Asian women on the list is Singapore's Ho Ching, CEO of Temasek.

India comes in at number 13 and 20 with Sonia Gandhi and Chanda Kochhar respectively. Ms. Gandhi is the President of India's ruling part, the Indian National Congress Party while Ms. Kochhar is the CEO of ICICI Bank.

Indonesia comes in at number 72 with Sri Indrawati, Coordinating Minister for the Economy and Minister of Finance and the Bangladesh Prime Minister, Hasina Wajed, comes in at number 79.

Forbes ranks these women in terms of influence. 

So I guess that explain why Queen Elizabeth II only came in at number 42, one spot behind Oprah Winfrey and two ahead of the Philippines President, Gloria Arroyo.

Any Malaysians?

WHAT DO THE JEWS BELIEVE ABOUT JESUS?

Introduction:

Craig is studying the teachings of different religions (to find 'common ground'/principles/ and as he learns from his research, is sharing these notes in an attempt to 'enlighten' (himself and perhaps others) regarding 'eternal and universal truths.' These notes form a background to Craig's new novel set in the Middle East, on which he's currently working , titled 'A New Dawn: Let the Journey Begin'. Hope this piece may be of interest to you too (as well as perhaps promoting more understanding of other religions).

To clarify the Jewish position, it is important to understand why Jews don't believe in Jesus. (And the more "info" that's available, the better-informed choices people can make about their spiritual path). 

For 2,000 years, Jews have rejected the Christian idea of Jesus as messiah. 

Why don't Jews accept Jesus as the Messiah?

Jews do not accept Jesus as the messiah because:

1) JESUS DID NOT FULFILL THE MESSIANIC PROPHECIES

Like usher in an era of world peace, and end all hatred, oppression, suffering and disease. 

As it says: "Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall man learn war anymore." (Isaiah 2:4) 

Christians counter that Jesus will fulfill these in the Second Coming; but Jewish sources show that the Messiah will fulfill the prophecies outright, and no concept of a second coming exists.

2) JESUS DID NOT EMBODY THE PERSONAL QUALIFICATIONS OF MESSIAH

Jesus was not a prophet. Prophecy can only exist in Israel when the land is inhabited by a majority of world Jewry. Prophecy ended upon the death of the last prophets -- Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi. Jesus appeared on the scene approximately 350 years after prophecy had ended. 

3) BIBLICAL VERSES "REFERRING" TO JESUS ARE BELIEVED TO BE MIS-TRANSLATIONS

Biblical verses can only be understood by studying the original Hebrew text -- which reveals many discrepancies in the Christian translation (like the Virgin birth). Throughout the New Testament, Jesus contradicts the Torah and states that its commandments are no longer applicable

4) JEWISH BELIEF IS BASED SOLELY ON NATIONAL REVELATION 

(ie. God's message to the entire nation of Israel).

The Jews did not believe in Moses, because of the miracles he performed. Whenever anyone's belief is based on seeing miracles, he has lingering doubts, because it is possible the miracles were performed through magic or sorcery. All of the miracles performed by Moses in the desert were because they were necessary, and not as proof of his prophecy. 

Judaism is not miracles. It is the personal eyewitness experience of every man, woman and child, standing at Mount Sinai 3,300 years ago.

5) CHRISTIANITY CONTRADICTS JEWISH THEOLOGY

The following theological points apply primarily to the Roman Catholic Church, the largest Christian denomination.

A. GOD AS THREE?

The Catholic idea of Trinity breaks God into three separate beings: The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19). 

In Jewish law, worship of a three-part god is considered idolatry -- one of the three cardinal sins that a Jew should rather give up his life than transgress. This explains why during the Inquisitions and throughout history, Jews gave up their lives rather than convert. 

B. MAN AS GOD?

Roman Catholics believe that God came down to earth in human form, as Jesus said: "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30). 

Judaism says that the Messiah will be born of human parents, and possess normal physical attributes like other people. He will not be a demi-god, and will not possess supernatural qualities. In fact, an individual is alive in every generation with the capacity to step into the role of the Messiah.

C. INTERMEDIARY FOR PRAYER?

The Catholic belief is that prayer must be directed through an intermediary -- i.e. confessing one's sins to a priest. Jesus himself is an intermediary, as Jesus said: "No man cometh unto the Father but by me." 

In Judaism, prayer is a totally private matter, between each individual and God. As the Bible says: "God is near to all who call unto Him" (Psalms 145:18). Further, the Ten Commandments state: "You shall have no other gods BEFORE ME," meaning that it is forbidden to set up a mediator between God and man. (see Maimonides - Laws of Idolatry ch. 1) 

6) JEWS AND GENTILES

Judaism does not demand that everyone convert to the religion. The Torah of Moses is a truth for all humanity, whether Jewish or not. King Solomon asked God to heed the prayers of non-Jews who come to the Holy Temple (Kings I 8:41-43). The prophet Isaiah refers to the Temple as a "House for all nations." 

Jews have never actively sought converts to Judaism because the Torah prescribes a righteous path for gentiles to follow, known as the "Seven Laws of Noah." Maimonides explains that any human being who faithfully observes these basic moral laws earns a proper place in heaven. 

7) BRINGING THE MESSIAH

Judaism says that the Messiah will be born of human parents, and possess normal physical attributes like other people. He will not be a demi-god, and will not possess supernatural qualities. In fact, an individual is alive in every generation with the capacity to step into the role of the Messiah. 

Maimonides states that the popularity of Christianity (and Islam) is part of God's plan to spread the ideals of Torah throughout the world. This moves society closer to a perfected state of morality and toward a greater understanding of God. All this is in preparation for the Messianic age.

Indeed, the world is in desperate need of Messianic redemption. War and pollution threaten our planet; ego and confusion erode family life. To the extent we are aware of the problems of society, is the extent we will yearn for redemption. As the Talmud says, one of the first questions a Jew is asked on Judgment Day is: "Did you yearn for the arrival of the Messiah?" 

How can we hasten the coming of the Messiah? The best way is to love all humanity generously, to keep the mitzvot of the Torah (as best we can), and to encourage others to do so as well. 

Despite the gloom, the world does seem headed toward redemption. One apparent sign is that the Jewish people have returned to the Land of Israel and made it bloom again. Additionally, a major movement is afoot of young Jews returning to Torah tradition. 

The Messiah can come at any moment, and it all depends on our actions. God is ready when we are. For as King David says: "Redemption will come today -- if you hearken to His voice." 

The Jewish View of Jesus

According to the New Testament and the Christian church, Jesus is divine, the son of God, the Messiah. In sharp contrast, Jews believe Jesus was a man! - 

Jesus - The Man:

Like other educated Jews in his day, he was faithful to the law of Moses, learned in Jewish scriptures and oral law, steeped in the spirit of the Pharisees (the leading religious teachers of his day), and expectant of the coming of the Messianic Era (which he called the "Kingdom of God"). In his day, many people called Jesus "rabbi." 

Like other religious, nationalistic Jews before and after him, Jesus angered the Roman government. 

The Romans considered the ideas preached by Jesus to be dangerous. As a result, the Romans arrested Jesus during his Passover trip to Jerusalem. Then the Romans, upon the order of the Roman procurator, executed Jesus. 

Jesus - The Messiah 

After Jesus' death, a group of simple fishermen and artisans, called "Nazarenes" after Jesus' hometown of Nazareth, became his followers. Jesus' brother James, headed the Nazarenes in Jerusalem for approximately thirty years, until 62 C.E. when he was also executed by the Romans. The Nazarenes observed Jewish laws, and they believed that Jesus would return soon to inaugurate God's kingdom on earth. Thus, Jesus was a founder of a religious movement, or more specifically of the sect of the Nazarenes within Judaism. 

The Jewish View of Jesus

Jews believe Jesus himself would have been shocked to know that many people today view him as the Messiah. According to Judaism, Jesus was a Jewish man who was executed and later given divine status by the Christian church. Christianity claimed Jesus as its founder and also as God incarnate.

* *

SUMMARY:

In brief: 

1. No Jew accepts Jesus as the Messiah. When someone makes that faith commitment, they become Christian. It is not possible for someone to be both Christian and Jewish. 

2. Jews reject Jesus as the Messiah because he didn't fulfill Jewish expectations of the Messiah. 

3. The Hebrew Bible (called the Old Testament by the non-Jewish world) is not proof for anything in the New Testament regarding a Messiah. 

The Hebrew Bible describes the Messiah as a national savior who would arrive at the time of the Babylonian exile (hundreds of years before Christianity) and restore the nation of Israel with a capital at Jerusalem. 

The original "messianic" aspirations of the Jewish People was to return from Exile and to restore the Jewish nation. 

# Jews do not accept Jesus as the messiah because:

1) Jesus did not fulfill the messianic prophecies.

2) Jesus did not embody the personal qualifications of the Messiah.

3) Biblical verses "referring" to Jesus are mistranslations.

4) Jewish belief is based on national revelation.

and

5) Christianity contradicts Jewish theology

Still Judaism says to love ALL humanity (in common with Christianity and Islam)

A Very Wise View by Datuk Dr Agoes Salim on the State of Malaysia

Datuk Dr Agoes Salim is an an economist and first secretary-general of the National Unity Ministry. He is also former chairman of Bank Pertanian. He was on the public service secretariat of the National Operations Council following the riots and helped draw up both the Rukun Negara and the NEP.
What started as a noble objective to redistribute wealth for the poor (regardless of race) has gone wrong and misinterpreted in every sense with biased application by overzealous UMNO officials and civil servants to dominate and enrich a select few instead of the dominant underprivilege poor regardless of race.
Of late we are beginning to see many Malay intellectuals speaking up on this unhealthy UMNO dominanation policy under the pretext of wealth distribution (NEP) policy by recent generation of leaders to enrich only a select few  UMNOputras who are politically well connected for contracts eg AP
anizad@nst.com.my
 
 

A Very Wise View
Dominating role not healthy for nation,

 
I THINK we are farther apart now than we were in 1969.
 

But you have to remember that I grew up going to an English school, to a university where there were people of all races. At that time, although we did think in terms of race, it wasn't in the way people do now. We felt that we were Malayans. We socialised much better than we do now.

Bahasa Malaysia can be a unifying factor. But it can be a factor separating people, too.

As Sukarno would say, "The important thing is the jiwa."
You don't have to have a common language, if you have the same jiwa (heart, spirit, passion, devotion). This is what we don't have right now.

In 1956, the historical society of Universiti Malaya went to India.
There were lots of Indians in the group, but they didn't think of themselves as Indians, they thought of themselves as Malayans.
 

That's the jiwa.
 

But later on, because of certain reactions, suddenly people stayed away from this jiwa — they don't feel as though they are fully Malaysian. They are made to feel that way.

When I was in the service, there were lots of non-Malays in the civil service, holding good positions. But do you see them now? If you go to the universities, where are the non-Malay professors?

After 1969, suddenly there was this drive to make sure that all university vice-chancellors and faculty deans were Malay. So, in the end, we chased away all the best brains among the non-Malays.

When schools say you must start school with a doa (Muslim prayer recitation), you push away all the non-Muslims. When I was at school, we never had any prayers. Whatever we learnt in religious class was a separate thing.

I think it's more important that we bring people together, rather than pushing religion so hard that it alienates other people. This is what's happening. I can't blame the Chinese and Indians; why should they go to a sekolah kebangsaan (national school), when they have to do all these things?

All the things are breaking down. Our school system is not as it used to be. We are producing supposedly so many students with so many As, but what do they know? Are we happy about it? The leaders seem to be happy about it.

We came up with the Rukun Negara because, after 1969, there was the feeling that the nation was breaking down. People had forgotten what it was all about. So, we thought we could bring people back together — unite them. That's what the first part of the Rukun Negara is about: the objectives of the nation.

Unfortunately, we did practically nothing to promote an understanding of the Rukun Negara. And when schools make mistakes, nobody corrects them. That should have been the role of the Department of Information.

In the beginning, Tan Sri Ghazali Shafie did try to apply the test of whether something was in consonance with the Rukun Negara or not. But then, the government just forgot about this.

We are supposed to be a united nation, not only in terms of state, but also in terms of people: that they would all consider themselves as Malaysians, and that this was their country and their nation. We wanted all these people to share the wealth of the nation.

One of the things we thought contributed to '69 was the economic disparities, joblessness.

The New Economic Policy was a policy for all Malaysians; not just for the Malays. But we wanted to restructure the economy so that the Malays would come out of the rural agriculture sector into the commercial sector.
 
We wanted Malay participation at all levels of economic activity. We wanted to uplift the Malays without reducing the position of the others.. — "eradicating poverty regardless of less".

And this was supposed to be in a situation of growth. Not just sharing the existing cake, but the cake must grow, so that these people also have the opportunity to grow.

At the same time, we also hoped that the Malays would grow a little faster. So, they set this target of 30 per cent equity in 20 years. I was not much in favour of that because I didn't think it was achievable. I felt that participation was more important than wealth.

We never thought that we would produce multi-billionaires. That was never the intention of the NEP. If some people can come up as everyone comes up, it's okay. But it wasn't supposed to be about some people getting contracts.

We did say that we should have Malay millionaires just as we should have Chinese and Indian millionaires, but not so much so that you don't have to do anything.

You must differentiate between dominance and domination. As Tun Dr Ismail said, "We want to be dominant, but we don't want to dominate."
Dominant in the sense that we wanted the Malays to be everywhere; but not to dominate all the others.

But we seem to be dominating; and I don't think that's healthy for the nation. It's not about taking your share and not caring about the rest.

A Malaysian Poem

Previously…

 
Get Vietnamese workers, dogs missing.
Get Bangladeshi workers, Malay girls missing.
Get Indonesian workers, money missing.
Get Indian workers, jewellery missing.
Get Chinese workers, husbands missing.

And now…


Call the police, the evidence goes missing,
Call the lawyers, the judge go missing,
Call the ministry of transport, the reports go missing
Change the government, funds go missing,
Say something and you may be missing.

Malaysians Disgusted with MACC

If I were Wong Chuan How, I too would resist arrest by the Malaysian Anto-Corruption Agency (MACC). I think both Wong and I didnt want to end up dead, like Teoh Beng Hock.

It amuses me, and the world, to see how the Malaysian ruling part is trying so hard, in vain, to win back the state of Selangor. The Prime Minister thinks that Malaysians cant see his ulterior motive. I understand, that as a ruler, he wants to be secure and do his best. But cant he see that his actions so far as back firing. Does he really think the MACC has helped his cause? I think not. In fact, I think the MACC has knocked a large nail in the Prime Ministers re-election hopes.

I look forward to the opposition mounting a BIG, BIG win in the next election!

H1N1 - Is This The Start of the Superior Race?

Is the H1N1 flu a systematic removal of the weaker ones among us humans?

Could this ultimately be the superior race that Hitler was aiming for?

Look at the facts. The virus can attack anyone. But only those who are weak are dying. Those who are strong recover from the flu.

I have a strong believe that this virus was manufactured and left in the open as a test. Just like what hackers do with their programs - most programs don't cause much damage but then once in a while you get a program that causes massive damage.

Could the H1N1 virus be something similar - some mad scientist experiment gone wrong?

Beware of these SCAM Cases

1.         Subject: Duped by credit card scam upon check in at Hotel

You arrive at your hotel and check in at the front desk.

When checking in, you give the front desk your credit card (for all the charges for your room). You get to your room and settle in.
Someone calls the front desk and asked for (example) Room 620 (which happens to be your room).

Your phone rings in your room. You answer and the person on the other end says the following:

"This is the front desk. When checking in, we came across a problem with your charge card information.
Please re-read me your credit card number and verify the last 3 digits numbers at the reverse side of your charge card."

Not thinking anything you might give this person your information, since the call seems to come from the front desk.
But actually, it is a scam of someone calling from outside the hotel/front desk. They ask for a random room number.
Then ask you for credit card information and address information. Sounding so professional that you do think you are talking to the front desk.

If you ever encounter this problem on your vacation, tell the caller that you will be down at the front desk to clear up any problems.
Then go to the front desk and ask if there was a problem. If there was none, inform the manager of the hotel that someone called to scam you of your credit card information acting like a front desk employee.

If you feel that the tips are useful, please forward it to your relatives, friends & colleague.


2.         Subject: Driving to JB

If you get RM10.00 in your car door handle, use tissue paper or cloth to remove it without opening it and if possible bag it.
Drive away immediately.

Don't check the note until you are in the company of your friends or relatives. The note could either contain powdered drugs to knock you out
or make you wonder if some guilty motorist compensating you for a knock or scratch on your car , while you are still wondering, the robber(s)
will attack you as you check the car.

This had happened in Johor. Please circulate to your friends and warn them!



3.         Subject: Bangkok International Airport

Folks, be warned and be really careful, check the items you bought and give back what does not belong to you even when the shop assistants
claimed it's 'free'. I believe the duty free shop assistants would also get a share.......so, be very, very careful. Read below

My Dept. secretary informed on this. Her cousin was detained in Bangkok for stealing a box of cigarettes in a duty-free shop in Bangkok
International Airport.

He had paid for chocolates and a carton of cigarettes. The cashier put a packet of smokes into his bag and he thought it was a free pack.

He was arrested for shop-lifting and the Thai Police extortion price was RM30,000 for his release. He spent two nights in jail and paid RM50 for
an air-con cell, 200-300 baht for each visitor, and RM11,000 for his final release.

The Police shared the money in front of his eyes. On top of that, he was charged in court and fined RM2,000 by the magistrate and handcuffed and
escorted to his plane.

His passport was stamped "Thief". While there, his relatives requested help from the Malaysian Embassy and was told that they are helpless, as
Malaysians are victimised similarly daily and letters and phone-calls to the Thai Authorities are ignored.

He shared a cell with a Singaporean the 1st night who paid RM60,000 for his release.

The 2nd night was an Indian national who paid USD70,000.

Mind you this is not in a shag downtown Bangkok but in a duty free shop in Bangkok's Int'l Airport.

Share this experience with all your friends!
