Syerleena Abdul Rashid is the political education director of the Bukit Bendera DAP women’s wing.
Her writings appear very, very often in the newsletter of the NGO, Aliran.
I hope Aliran doesn’t try anymore to pretend that it is “non partisan”. Such a claim would be about as believable as Dyana Sesumpah pretending her mother Yammy was never associated with Perkasa.

Double-faced bermuka-muka
One face shown to the Chinese
One face shown to the Malay
Mengkarung betul
Syerleena writes articles with titles like:
- ‘Hate-mongering: Nurturing fear in the Malay community‘
- ‘Allah controversy: Bigots exploiting religious insecurities‘
- ‘Bangsa Malaysia: Our citizenship defined‘
- ‘Reformasi 2.0 – The rise of Bangsa Malaysia‘
- etc, etc, on these themes … you get the picture
So. This Malay woman, Syerleena …
… who is a member of DAP Bukit Bendera (Zairil’s Parliamentary constituency in Penang)
… and branch’s wing’s political education director
… writes copiously in the Penang NGO Aliran website/e-newsletter (previously print magazine)
… on topics like “Bigots” (yup, DAP credentials alright) who exploit religious insecurities
… on the topic of “Hate-mongering” (undoubtedly DAP credentials) and obviously about the “racists”/”extremists” accused by the DAP of nurturing fear in the Malay community
… on the topic of “Bangsa Malaysia” and “the Rise of Bangsa Malaysia”, and more Bangsa Malaysia, ad nauseum.

Yeah.
Keep it up Cik Syerleena and your party might just put you up somewhere as their next “M~A~L~A~Y” (must s.t.r.e.s.s. this DAP “gula-gula murahan” branding word) candidate window dressing.
Syerleena’s latest article uploaded 3 days ago by the Banyak-Bodek-DAP-woh NGO (Aliran) is titled ‘Why Malays are gravitating towards DAP‘ (23 May 2014).
Now why do I think Syerleena’s article is funny?
Drumroll … the Malays who gravitate to the DAP are:
Remember how the Red Bean Army slagged MCA’s Chew Mei Fun for the “sin” of sharing the stage with some Perkasa fellas?
Well look what Dyana is doing in the photo above and note the Perkasa banner behind her.
And yes, Dyana’s mammy Yammy was a Perkasa committee member — see Minaq Jinggo’s expose.
The irony of the DAP Malays pushing hardcore DAP morphine (“Bigots exploiting religious insecurities”, “Hate-mongering: Nurturing fear in the Malay community” yadda yadda), don’t you think?
Syerlena’s article seeks to explain why Malays are gravitating towards DAP. The Dyana photos explain admirably.
Why indeed? Two-faced greedy, grasping opportunism. Why else.
The monster that is DAP 3.0 is lately attracting the worst kind of carpetbaggers.
Memang dah muak sampai ke tahap meluat pun.

Spot on Helen. I really despise hypocrite Malays like Dyana and Syerleena. If the DAP Chinese say Ridhuan Tee and Alifah Ting lebih Melayu daripada orang Melayu, I would say Dyana and Syerleena are more Chinese than the Chinese! And I would not be surprised if they would also adopt the religion of their masters
mind you, not all malays are muslims.
Like Indonesians malays, they have muslims, christians, hindus and they looks alike but they are different
I was talking about the Malays in Malaysia lah, bongok!
Hah kan dah kena bongok. Bila time ni baru la nak kira Malays Indonesia la, Filipina la, Afrika Selatan la. In the same breath they will bash on the Malay and Nusantara as tak wujud, dongeng, Melayu pun pendatang, orang asli penduduk sebenar Malaysia, no races but Malaysians only.
Hipokrit macam PAS jugak DAP ni.
Wrong…! The Malays of Peninsular Malaysia are synonymous Islam.., despite many of them are not practicing Muslims or behave like some non-Muslims.
Long ago.., I had some Malay colleagues who were drunkards, kaki-ganja, fornicators and all those vices. But.., if you dare mock the religion of Islam in front of them.., they would sure give you a straight punch in the your face. That’s how it is.
Mammy Yammy’s got some yummy genes! Mmm-hmm yam-my!
LOL DAP attracting Perkasa drop-outs, great, get them on the same boat, then torpedo them into oblivion!
In the name of power, anything goes…
…..’Why indeed? Two-faced greedy, grasping opportunism. Why else…’
Kenapalah bangsaku semakin ramai bersikap begini!
Sikap begini bukan sahaja memalukan bangsa Melayu Islam tetapi menggali ‘kubur’ untuk kita semua!
Betapa besarnya gelak ketawa LKS dan LGE di belakang kamu kerana mereka dapat membeli kamu dengan harga yang murah!
Malangnya kami seluruh Melayu Islam akan sama terasa sakitnya! Ingat bunga bahasa nenek moyang kita, cubit peha kira, peha kanan terasa juga!
Memang malang ada benda yang tidak boleh dipisahkan walaupun bagaimana kita cuba. Antaranya ikatan darah dan kekeluargaan/bangsa.
Kalau tidak manusia jenis di atas telah lama di ‘talak’ kan dari ikatan Melayu Islam!
[deleted] and if that is the case, she should join PKR. But then, even the dumbest idiots on the planet knew that PKR is just parti mi segera, no real soul hence no real future. The moment the cookie crumbled, all the non-Malay PKR members will join DAP. Whereas PAS is a party that just sold its soul to DAP, and soon PAS soul-less skeleton will be left by the road-side thanks to Dyana-type breakthroughs.
Join DAP pi mana pon tak perlu bawa dompet.
Ms H. In our beloved country either we are good friends or related. We cannot runaway very far.
Re: The kind of Malays who join DAP
The ‘house slave’. Like the character played by Samuel L Jackson in ‘Django Unchained’. The same term used by AA leaders to describe Colin Powell and Condy Rice who served Dubya’s White House.
Agree…I thought the correct (and politically incorrect term) was House Nigger….LOL
Syerleeena is actually a member of Aliran and that’s why she gets to write in their magazine and website. She supposedly a part time post-graduate student as well as the “director” of a water sports company and lives in Batu Feringghi. And you know BF is the abode of the Super Rich (house prices starts well above Rm 1 million).
That she has the grandiose title of “the director of political education” is an indication that this is a made up position especially for her since this is not an elected position. The title of director is just to massage her ego.
I guess she’s one of those “liberal” (see under “opportunistic” in the dictionary) Malays that DAP is trying to recruit for the next GE. Probably her father was/is an UMNO member and she studied overseas under Bumi quota and now suddenly hit with the realization how “evil UMNO and its policies of Bumi special privileges”. However I don’t think she’ll be a candidate for DAP as I heard her “personal life” is “complicated” and some of her “activities” and “photos” might not look very wholesome to the Muslim community if these were made public. But doesn’t seem to stop her from trying.
‘However I don’t think she’ll be a candidate for DAP as I heard her “personal life” is “complicated” and some of her “activities” and “photos” might not look very wholesome to the Muslim community if these were made public.’
That’s why Muslims are taught to jaga makan. Jaga kesuciaan makanan dan hasil daripada mata pencarian.
Bila lagi Muslim nak saman Nestle? Takkan setakat bagi maaf saja kut. Nestle peniaga yang tidak jujur. Makanya syarikat tersebut harus DI SAMAN!!!
Pembela, PPIM, ISMA, TERAS, PAS, UMNO, PERKASA takkan tengok saja kut???
Cadbury is not Nestle. They are rival companies.
Haha. SAMAN CADBURY!!! SAMAN CADBURY!!! SAMAN CADBURY!!!
hahahaha….sudah tersalah saman ke tadi Islam 1st….?
Tu la. What do we do, without Helen, kan abang?
JOM ABANG KITA SAMAN CADBURY!
Despite our constant quarrels, I know that when the evangelistas and Dapsters attack me, you will get my back.
‘constant quarrels’
No la Helen. Where got. Kita exchange ideas maa.
‘I know that when the evangelistas and Dapsters attack me, you will get my back.’
I’m pretty sure, many here have done the same!
bukan gaduh, saja melawak kut…hehe. kalau dapster RBA mangkuk mai sini buat ghaplah, baru gaduh…kan bro islam1st.
‘kalau dapster RBA mangkuk mai sini buat ghaplah, baru gaduh…kan bro islam1st.’
Tepat Sekali!
The malays who do not want to be labelled Melayu only because Melayu = Islam.
They want to be able to do everything and anything whether islamic or unislamic and not be charge for breakng any syariah laws.
Melayu yang join DAP selalunya ada sikit “short circuit”.
Mungkin sebab tak jaga makan kut!!!
Dah termakan so what will the Muslims do to ‘cure’?
Itu kite panggil darurat madam. Nk cleanse / samak camno dah jadi darah daging. Mandi bunga la… Hehe. Nope saje gurau
,)
Umat Islam di negara ini dinasihatkan tidak menghukum diri sendiri dengan beranggapan mereka sudah melakukan dosa besar apabila menelan makanan haram sedangkan tindakan itu, sebelum ini bersandarkan status halal dikeluarkan pihak Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM).
http://www.hmetro.com.my/articles/Usahhukumdirisendiri/Article/
Tapi tak berapa nak jadi ‘baik’ la Helen. Tu yang Muslims tak berapa nak jadi baik tu, dewasa ini…
itulah agenda tersembunyi yahudi besar dan kecil. bagi makan yg haram supaya kekuatan jiwa Islam menjadi goyah. dah pun berjaya setakat ini.
Apa lagi JOM KITA SAMAN CADBURY!!!
Why don’t you go ahead instead of shouting in my blog?
Alhamdullilah. All praise be to Allah SWT.
Baklava anyone?
‘Malay NGO to sue Cadbury over discovery of pig DNA in chocolates
A Malay group called Jaringan Melayu Malaysia (JMM) said it plans to sue Cadbury Confectionery Malaysia following reports that two of its products contained traces of pig DNA.
JMM president Azwanddin Hamzah accused Cadbury of misleading Muslims by producing products with porcine DNA. Cadbury’s biggest consumer, he said, are from Muslims and Malays.
“This is a malicious lie and has to be contained. Among the Muslims, this is a great insult… such products should not be produced at all,” he said at a press conference today.’
http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/malay-ngo-to-sue-cadbury-over-discovery-of-pig-dna
PPIM, ISMA, PERKASA, UMNO, PAS, Pembela, Pembina, Pro Muslim, apa lagi, takkan nak tengok saja kut?!
JOM SAMAN CADBURY!
Do update us when the investigators find out how it happened.
PPIM is suing Cadbury, PC is tomorrow.
Yang lain bila lagi?
Dear Aunty Helen,
Dyana lies but PR supporters will tell everybody that she is not lying and will still vote for her. Only UMNO/BN lies :) They love liars like Anwar, LGE, LKS, Khalid Gereja, Mujahid, Mat Sabu and others.
The moon is square. PAS will do anything for DAP. PAS supports Dyana even after she made the statement that she will not vote for hudud. PAS condemns Rosmah for not wearing hijab but campaigns for Dyana who does not wear hijab.
It is a pity I do not meet Tok Him (Ibrahim Ali) and Uncle Jinggo so often; if not I can ask them about Dyana’s yummy mummy. Oops, wrong spelling, mammy Yammy.
The reason I do not support DAP is because they putar-belit, bohong and tabur fitnah all the time. Sudah sebati dengan jiwa dan menjadi darah daging mereka.
Their rank hypocrisy makes me sick.
Dear Aunty Helen,
re: Their rank hypocrisy makes me sick.
Agreed.
Umno mouthpiece Utusan Malaysia is a Nazi-type of paper, meant only for those who are uneducated, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng (pic) said today, criticising the daily for calling his party the most racist in Malaysia – TMI.
http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/utusan-malaysia-a-paper-for-extremists-and-racists-says-guan-eng
You mean the fake “bikini photographs of Dyana” which backfired all over the cybertroopers?
Why is the Barisan Nasional spending more of their time and resources attacking Dyana, instead of promoting their own candidate? So what can the Gerakan man offer this time that he could not in the last several elections?
The BN strategists and operatives assert that the bikini photo is a “reverse psychology” (their word) created by the DAP strategists and operatives.
Oppo supporters have no proof that BN thought up the idea and BN supporters have no proof that BN thought up the idea first either.
True, some of the pro-Umno bloggers used the pix but the Umno ‘war room’ (as such) claimed the pix was first introduced through the DAP-controlled Facebook pages.
Of course followers of each side will believe what they want to believe.
Yes. After that attempt backfired they started doing damage control by claiming it was a ‘reverse psychology’ operation. It is not the first time that such backpedalling has happened.
Perhaps next they will claim the fake nun and fake priest who were invited to speak at the UiTM seminar are actually double agents of the Church.
Like I said, this (whodunnit) is an issue of belief.
To borrow from SAA, how can either side win an argument over pet unicorns?
AC-DC,
Who would have believed that the bikini photo is Dyana? One look and immediately I knew that it’s not Dyana. The lady in the bikini is much better looking than the chameleon Dyana and a fake lawyer to boot! Orang Melayu gelar manusia macam Dyana ni loyar burok!
Well, the PR loving portals are ignoring this explosive photo instead claiming that any accusations linking her mum with Perkasa as personal attacks…. And these are the same folks who ceaselessly attacked Chew and MCA leaders as running dogs and UMNO’s boot-lickers and worse..
Did you notice how quickly AWAM and WAO respond to the bikini pic of Dyana yet played dead mute when Chew was savaged ?
‘AWAM and WAO’
Just like Bersih and Aliran, these NGO’s are known to be anti establishment and want to UBAH!
Anti-establishment ? They are actually pro-PR. Aliran used to be really impartial during Dr Chandra Muzaffar’s days and I used to be a big follower of them. But these days Aliran is basically the NGO arm of Pakatan. Just like Hitler Youth Brigade to Nazi party.
‘Just like Hitler Youth Brigade to Nazi party.’
Haha I like.
More on Chandra
‘Semasa era Reformasi, Chandra Muzaffar mengeluarkan kenyataan jangan mengundi Barisan Nasional yang ketika itu dikatakannya boleh diibaratkan sebagai harimau yang cedera. Apalah guna berpakat sesama Barisan Alternatif sekiranya mereka memberikan ruang untuk Barisan Nasional untuk bangkit kembali. Itu pesan Chandra Muzaffar pada ketika itu kepada penyokong Barisan Alternatif.’
http://www.bangkit.info/2014/05/konsistensi-kredibiliti-persepsi-pra.html
Can you point out where you think Dr Chandra is being inconsistent?
I believe the article had said it all. Anyway, being a wartawan, I’m sure you are well aware of a Chandra Muzaffar, yes?
You want to make accusations against Dr Chandra, then you specify lah.
Referring to a very long article is a cop-out.
I believe the article did. I quote saja maa. You yang kata dia incosistent maa. Haiya.
I’ll revert and check out the article you linked. Will respond to you shortly.
The article you linked is titled “Ingat Babi, Ingat Cadburry!” and contains the identical Cadbury=Pig poster.
It does not pass moderation.
Helen, I agree ‘Tolerance is a two-way street’
http://www.ismaweb.net/2014/05/tolerance-is-a-two-way-street-mohammad-yusri-jamaluddin/
‘Anti-establishment ?’
My wrong. I meant to say anti BN.
This is not true this is slander. There are no malays chinese indians etc in dap only msian. You misled ppl shame on you low class you. Bangsat…
Sarcastic remarks ok tak… Hehe… Sori madam helen
Aliran should be renamed Also Ran. Useless bunch of Ambiga apologists with an Anwar flavor to all their observations. Recipients of NED and civil societies funding too.
OPPH (Orang Putih Pant#t Hitam).
“They” control the media. “They” control the NGOs.
Umno is not getting its act together.
The fightback against them is coming from Isma and the like. Umno is bypassed and a bystander.
Malaysia will go to the Muslim Brotherhood if Umno persist in sitting on their fat arses.
‘Umno persist in sitting on their fat arses.’
UMNO likes to bergambar. Najib with his RM50mil Pandas from China. KJ with his two Cina kawan in India!
SAMAN CADBURY!!!
‘Umat Islam pada hari ini menyaksikan bahawa telah bermula satu gelombang di mana generasi muda pada hari ini cenderung untuk menjauhkan diri dari Islam dan telah tercatat beberapa kes-kes yang melibatkan anak-anak yang dilahirkan di dalam keluarga Islam memilih untuk meninggalkan Islam. Tujuan mereka bukan kerana mencari kebenaran. Kebenaran hanya wujud di dalam agama Islam. Mereka menjadi keliru dan rosak pemikiran kerana sistem pemikiran mereka telah menjadi rosak kerana cara kehidupan mereka.
Antara sebab perkara ini berlaku ialah sumber pemakanan yang mereka ambil termasuk ibu bapa yang memberikan makan kepada anak-anak mereka dari sumber pendapatan haram.’
Pls stop spamming my blog with your anti-Cadbury poster.
Stop trying to be elitist Helen. You are not. Anyway, it is in line with our discussion on the type of ‘Malays who joins DAP’!
The article above had said it all. You dah baca ke belum?
You have spammed my blog with at least half a dozen posters “Ingat Babi Ingat Cadbury”.
How can blocking you – mind, I already let through the first two of your Babi posters – from exploiting my platform to campaign against a chocolate company be considered “elitist”?
Your behaviour is clear-cut SPAMMING and it breaches Net etiquette.
And secondly, how is Cadbury claimed to be “in line with our discussion on the type of ‘Malays who joins DAP’!”
For all we know, Dyana and Syerleena are dieting and avoid sweet foods.
Your Babi Cadbury posters are NOT in line with the topic and your next comment on it will be redirected to the Spam box.
Mana ada poster la Helen. I provide link untuk article saja. Patutla you tak faham. You tak baca lagi article tu rupanya. Dah masuk spam.
I thought you are all for freedom of speech. Liberal ideals etc, no?
Go back to your comments on https://helenang.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/the-kind-of-malays-who-join-dap/#comment-98271
https://helenang.wordpress.com/2014/05/26/the-kind-of-malays-who-join-dap/#comment-98274
Both your comments contain a picture link. The link opens to a poster that pictures Cadbury as a pig.
Yang first two tu betul la. Memang I nak link to the posters. What I meant was the rest of the links, seems sama was carrying the article I have quoted which you had redirected to spam. Thus not showing.
Like I said, the article featured the identical posters. Enough lah.
‘Enough lah.’
OK2
Democratic country. Anyone can join whatever NGO or party.
So what’s the problem?
But slandering others because of that is definitely immature.
Grow up, la.
Interesting perspective from a Dapter analyst.

Mah has a fair chance I believe, fingers crossed.
‘ fingers crossed’
Are you a Christian, Helen?
Nope. Raised in a Chinese-speaking Buddhist family.
Are you aware that when you say “Goodbye”, you’re wishing a Christian phrase?
Below: Origin of the word ‘goodbye’

Melayu Kata BABAI! Yang Islami skit cakap, Assalamualaikum.
Ms H. Be what you are. Be strong and compassionate. A certain religion was like opium in the 19th century. Build on your strong character and core values. Do not be afraid.
Ms helen. You r right he has fair chance agt dyana. Blog gelagat anwar said dap not confidence and ask pas 2 help. Then blog aidc said pas is doing all out for dyana. Haha…
Pas munafik tahap gaban bole sokong melayu x pakai tudung dan menolak hudud. Haha…
Kalo calon umno…
One fm my kampung, late father died leaving 8 kids, only d eldest doter working n youngest then ws 5yrs old.
Family tussled among d uncle (christian faith – only her father converted to Islam) insistg d doter is not in d position, still single then, to take care of all her siblings and took away one of her brother. She related to me in tears the messy family fights she had to go thru trying to keep him with the rest of the family.
He is now in his 30’s, a Christian but with Malay name n of cos b/cert as Malay Muslim. Features mirik lebih kurang macam yg tersebut2 diatas. He is an Architect.
When balik kampung he don’t mix at all with our community, very distant in his ways. Very anti UMNO n very unfriendly.
I am sure there are many similar cases, the exPadri yg dah bertaubat tu (Salleh/Joseph) pun mentioned some girls went about complete in kurungs/tudung to hide from families (macam mendiang Salasiah Sidek – parents only discovered when she died).
Those desperately pushing hard to erase their own race with Bangsa Malaysia, something is really fishy about them..
Rina,
I used to have a Malay neighbour who has converted to Christianity. His wife is a Chinese and hari-hari she bought daging babi from a pork seller who came to our area on a motor-bike.
This Malay guy was very quiet and liked to keep to himself. One day we terserempak and suddenly he greeted “Assalamualaikum” and I said “Huh!”
Why Malays are joining DAP???
‘More than 20 Malay-Muslim groups have called for a nationwide boycott on all Cadbury products, saying that a holy war needs to be waged against the confectionary giant for attempting to “weaken” Muslims in Malaysia.
At a news conference, the groups which include the Muslim Consumers Association of Malaysia (PPIM), Perkasa, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Darul Islah Malaysia (Perkid), Ikatan Muslimin Malaysia (Isma) and the Halal Muslim Entrepreneurs’ Association (Puhm) claimed that Cadbury had “crossed the line” by selling its porcine-tainted chocolates, and that swift action was needed.
