(2) Comparisons with the US experience is problematic, as I have pointed out numerous times. The African American community is statistically the most successful of the African diaspora in the world.

Dear Conrad,

If there is a slant in the definition of the disenfranchised or marginalised, then fix the slant,

“I have read many comments posted in Malaysia Today by readers who say that the Chinese do not need the Malays. In fact, I have deleted scores* of such comments because they only serve to rub the Malays the wrong way and does not help Pakatan Rakyat’s cause one bit.” — kata Raja Petra Kamarudin dalam rencananya bertajuk ‘Like a trapped animal (part 4)’

Don’t make a martyr out of teenager who stepped on PM’s photo

She is comel – 很 可 愛 – rather like a soft toy. Thus we see why Ong Sing Yee (Ong Xin Yi) has been speedily adopted as a mascot suitably representative of the DAP new vote bank — the young Chinese.

Not everything is an attack on Malays

Shahrizat Abdul Jalil has so far gotten off very lightly.

“And even this event [departure of Shahrizat from the cabinet] is not an act on the part of anybody; Shahrizat was not sacked, nor did she resign, her status as minister merely becomes legally void when her term as a senator comes to an end on April 8, as under our constitution only a member of parliament or a senator can become a minister.” — Kim Quek, political commentator & author

UPDATED:

The original video uploader Jess6366 has put in YouTube another clip where the words shouted can be heard. – 6.20pm

KFC dust-up and alleged ‘babi’ name-calling

UPDATE 4: This piece of news is being talked about in chat forum(s) in Indonesia, and has hit Singapore – World News item next? – 7.45pm, Feb 9

UPDATE 3: Sample of Malaysiakini readers’ call for boycott of Kentucky Fight Club and this is surely replicated in Facebook, chat forums and elsewhere. So who says a discussion here of the episode is making a mountain out of a molehill?

Race Relations Act not a good idea

The Sedition Act dates back to 19 July 1948. It was amended (expanded and modified) in 1969 after May 13.

Generally the public is aware that the act preempts people from talking bad about the government

PPSMI: Lepas ini kita ajar Perdagangan dalam bahasa Cina ya

Pada 2010, Zhongguo (China) mengalahkan Jepun untuk menduduki tempat kedua di dunia mengikut ukuran saiz ekonomi negara. Berdasarkan harga pasaran semasa, ekonomi nombor satu dunia setakat ini masih Amerika Syarikat.

Namun The Economist dalam lidah pengarangnya bertajuk ‘Becoming number one‘ (24 Sept 2011) menjangka Zhongguo akan berjaya mengatasi prestasi AS menjelang 2016 memandangkan tahap ekonomi tanah besar Cina sekarangpun menjangkau AS.

Apa kurangnya BM?

Balu, anak-anak yatim dan cerita parang

Kalian mungkin masih ingat lagi cerita sebilah parang kononnya ditemui polis dalam kereta yang dibawa remaja Aminulrasyid Amzah berusia 14 tahun.

Aminulrasyid ditembak mati polis.

OMG. Kecoh Namewee lagi

Muslim di AS: Kelas pertengahan dan arus perdana

Fakta menarik: Dua pertiga daripada orang keturunan Arab yang bermastautin di Amerika Syarikat adalah Kristian. Akan tetapi ramai pula (mungkin sebanyak satu perlima sehingga satu pertiga) orang berkulit hitam Amerika, yakni keturunan Afrika ataupun Negro, dianggarkan Muslim.
