Out of respect for religious freedom, no restriction has been imposed, although it should be celebrated moderately as they are less than ten per cent of the population.” “…jika tidak ada arahanpun, sepatutnya pihak gereja … Continue reading
Mkini has more guts than Insider
By Sharifuddin Abdul Latiff Both Malaysiakini and Malaysian Insider in their reports used the translation “small fry”. However, Insider has taken down its editorial titled ‘Muhyiddin’s small fry for faith’. Clicking on the URL takes the reader to an ‘Article not found’ notice. http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/index.php/opinion/breaking-views/59576-muhyiddins-small-fry-for-faith-the-malaysian-insider However, the Insider editorial can still be read from the Google … Continue reading
Should APCO Speechwriters Run Our Country?
By Eyes Wide Open APCO seems to be really earning their million-ringgit PR contract. Najib’s speeches are taking on that warm and fuzzy glow. One might almost mistake him for the Malaysian version of Obama if one was not aware of the long list of controversies surrounding him. The Malaysian Insider reported a glowing speech … Continue reading
Replying To “Non-Partisan”
by Eyes Wide Open “Non-Partisan”, the facebook entity who posted a screenshot of an inflammatory comment by one Bedy Nx Muneh, has made his way into HartalMSM and made some very eloquent rebuttals on the article by Sharifuddin in our comments section. This person must have his/her knickers in quite a twist since he made … Continue reading
Who is “Tengku Osman”?
By Sharifuddin A. Latiff Yeah, yeah, I’m still on the UMNO Baru Facebook case and this just in at about 9.30pm tonight or thereabouts – URL link here. Maaannn, this is definitely getting rather serious, eh folks. Putting up a banner like that is like waving your red panties in front of a pot-bellied 50 … Continue reading
Who is “Bedy Nx Muneh”?
By Sharifuddin A. Latiff Heck, I don’t even know how to pronounce this name. And you’re probably asking not just who but what all this fuss is about, eh folks.

Propaganda – similarities between the Nazis & BN
by Eyes Wide Open While doing research on media manipulation and propaganda techniques used by governments to maintain their grip on power, I came across an interesting website by the The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. It was a trasure trove of information about the Nazi atrocities, and they had several articles about how the … Continue reading
Mr IGP, give peace a chance
It is evident that the path towards sustainable harmonious co-existence having the all-important humanity element is clearly understood by the director-general of the NUID. And he appears determined to put in place ‘pre-conflict’ checks and balances whereby society has a decent shot at coping with adverse conditions.

Will the real Hasan Ali please stand up.. and leave
By Sharifuddin A. Latiff PAS FOR ALL is the rallying cry I started to hear during the Bukit Gantang by-election in March ’09 which Nizar won handsomely despite the loss of Perak to BN under dubious circumstances.
