Aug 21, 2008 - The saddest part of Msian politics is that there is no formidable malay opposition party to put up a good fight. If PAS were not such extremists, they would be more acceptable to a larger % of malays, and not only be confined to conservative Kelantan. Sad! Sad! Sad! There is no democracy!!!!!

Aug 21, 2008 - phantom voters? um we all have IC's and we are all registered on the databases. How the hell are there phantom voters? The chief of police even made that point, that phantom voters is a joke. no matter what the govt does, the opposition will criticize every action. I bet you when everything is over the opposition will say the election was unfair.

Aug 21, 2008 - Malaysia is made up of 3 races. PAS only appeals to Malays and Muslims. I am both Malay and muslim but I would never vote for PAS, its such a joke

Aug 21, 2008 - I don't think some of our politicians should still be in power, some of the ministers have been in power too long that they become power hungry. one thing i dont appreciate about the DAP leader's comment about civil servants is that he accuses them of being islamic radicals. My father is a civil servant, he's been in the govt for years and he knows how dissapointing it is when people use them as scapegoats. politicians change but the civil servants stay and work for all of you, remember that

Aug 21, 2008 - how come this video forgets to show the footage of HINDRAF going to the british consulate to ask for reperations? they showed that on CNN. HINDRAF went looking for trouble please, how can you say they weren't going to march knowing that they were doing it illegaly and were going to be dispersed.

Aug 21, 2008 - A Big Thanks to Aljazeera for providing a fair and balanced coverage of news to ordinary Malaysians. No Thanks to the shameless local news media who are just propaganda tools for the corrupt BN government....they are A Big Disgrace to journalism and Malaysia.

Aug 21, 2008 - Thanks to Al-Jazeera for providing full coverage of truth in Malaysia political scene. In Malaysia, the media is dominated by the Government. They only report the news which favor the Government & spread faulty news. Keep up the good works to spread the truth to Malaysians.

Aug 21, 2008 - The goverment has long fingers- alot of poeple who did not vote have had their votes cast for them (how?) The Malaysian Army personel have their votes cast for BN even if they don't vote themselves-(my uncle, a general with the army has confirmed this) Why did the goverment not allow international media to monitor the the voting process? Why supress the media?

Aug 21, 2008 - I was a volunteer observer at a former gen election voling station in PJ. We placed 3 ballot boxes into the van at the end of the day and followed the van to the collection center. At the center, 5 boxes were removed..... But we were too gutless and young to say anything. Wish I could go back to that day. Wish I had made a police report, I wish I wish I wish...., BUT AT LEAST I VOTED DECISIVELY THIS TIME...

Aug 21, 2008 - AlJazeera is a blessing to the Malaysian people. BN is so out of touch and a lot of the Media (STAR) is controlled by them. Many Malays now sympathize with the hardworking poor Chinese & Indians. Badawi is surrounded by the wrong people and should start associating himself with winners in the new political situation. Both Badawi and Anwar have valid points...come to a compromise and everyone wins!

Aug 21, 2008 - No disrespect to your father but the truth is, civil servants are puppets to the rulling party. A nice example was highlighted in Selangor's SUK where the govt officers were shredding official documents. I think civil servants should not be political and remember that they serve the govt not party. I think what DAP's LKSiang was trying to say is that most govt dept have high level of discrimination. Govt servants should be impartial as far as politics is concerned.

Aug 21, 2008 - Bumiputra or Bumiputera: Malay, also known as Pribumi in Indonesian, from Sanskrit Bhumiputra; translated literally, it means "earth son" (bhumi= earth, putra=son) or son of the soil. Bumiputra is a political term widely used in Malaysia, embracing ethnic Malays and occasionally other indigenous ethnic groups such as the Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia and the tribal peoples in Sabah and Sarawak.

Aug 21, 2008 - NEP's intentions were good but instead of creating a fairer system and moving towards meritocracy, it did the opposite: Lazy got bribes and Stupid were promoted (even CEOs). How do you motivate people? Make things easier or give people challenges? What example is the Gov setting especially for the younger generation?

Aug 21, 2008 - I dont see any solution in the near future. Sanwiched between UMNO and chinaman's greed, assaulted by the notion of PAS' islamic taliban state, the ordinary bumi is pretty much screwed. We are caught between a rock and a hard place. Kesian sungguh nasib melayu.
