A SIKH PRAYER FOR AMERICA -- NOV 9, 2016

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

In our tears and agony, we hold our children close and confront the truth: The future is dark.

But my faith dares me to ask: What if this darkness is not the darkness of the tomb, but the darkness of the womb?

What if our America is not dead but a country still waiting to be born?

What if the story of America is one long labor?

What if all the mothers who came before us, who survived genocide and occupation, slavery and Jim Crow, racism and xenophobia, political oppression and sexual assault, are standing behind us now, whispering in our ear: You are brave!

What if this is our Great Contraction before we birth a new future?

Remember the wisdom of the midwife: "Breathe," she says. Then: "Push."

Now it is time to breathe. But soon it will be time to push; soon it will be time to fight - for those we love -- Muslim father, Sikh son, trans daughter, indigenous brother, immigrant sister, white worker, the poor and forgotten, and the ones who cast their vote out of resentment and fear.

Let us make an oath to fight for the soul of America -- "The land that never has been yet- And yet must be" (Langston Hughes) -- with Revolutionary Love and relentless optimism. And so I pray this Sikh prayer:

Nanak Naam Chardi Kala, Tere Bane Sarbat Da Bhalla

"In the name of the Divine within us and around us, we find everlasting optimism. Within your will, may there be grace for all of humanity."

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

Amma’ brings English to Malay kampung school



What a breath of fresh air away from the religious and racial politics of intolerance sweeping Malaysia and pitting friends from the racial divide into enemies.




How are Indian Christian Cheryl Ann Fernando, 31, taught a class full of Malays in Kuala Kedah school who never seen an Indian teacher to read and speak good English. Yes what a young Amma but for the students she is Amma who was not selfish and taught them one of the most important gifts to survive in a competive job market and that is to read and speak English. Now got English can go anywhere and work anywhere also study anywhere.

Nope nope none were converted to Christianity and all remain Muslims and now enlighten


Hope this experiment can be duplicated by good dedicated teachers in all schools which have teaching and speaking English as a problem. Please start by employing these dedicated teachers to train the future teachers in the Teachers train colleagues and also train the University lecturers. A start is a start

Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah photo on wedding day wearing sari

Updated with photo of Tun in Malay costume. Cannot find one with matching one when Tun Siti Hasmah was wearing sari. I guess in these times it is not politically correct to show case your Indian heritage
 
Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah photo on wedding day wearing sari and wonder what costume Tun Mahathir was wearing Indian, Arab, western or Malay or a Pakistani Pashtun costume. Can only wonder unless have a photo of Tun on his wedding day. Never know one will turn up. It speaks volume on how Malaysia was during these times a very racial tolerance society with no name calling.

 

Tun Siti Hasmah looks stunning in her sari on her wedding day . Proud to be a Malaysian

Umno veteran says North Korean deals ‘strictly business’ - What a load of hogwash or we say here Bullshit


My comments - Please makeup your own conclusion on the IQ of the Umno venteran. Can fringe ingorance as cannot read and write and thus did not not read the print media and cannot watch TV news as also blind deaf . Quality of Umno leaderships . Education is the key to Intelligence

1.    Umno Veterans Club national secretary Mustapha Ya’akub has admitted his involvement in setting up a company, International Global System (M) Sdn Bhd (IGS), which was linked to Glocom (Global Communications Co) selling battlefield radios from North Korea.

2.    I knew Glocom was a North Korean product but I didn’t know that the country was under United Nations (UN) sanctions.

3.    Our relationship was strictly business. I knew them after being introduced by the North Korean Embassy. According to the embassy, they were looking for partners to market their products in Malaysia,

Why was Kim Jong Nam assassinated in Malaysia and not in Macau or Singapore?

I received the below from an anonymous contributor and very interesting and let see if the readers have an opinion of theirs too and leave it in comments section. A very intresting read

When Kim Jong Nam left Macau, he basically signed his death certificate. He has been travelling extensive in Singapore without any fear. Being bored of Singapore , he decided to travel in Malaysia. He did not realize that death was nearing him in Malaysia where airport security is lacking.

Assassinating Kim Jong-Nam on Chinese territory would have been a very serious act of war, comparable to a first strike. North Korea would have gone for such an option only if it also intended to further seriously strain its relations with China.

However, relations with China have indeed just recently deteriorated over the North Korea’s latest missile test. China responded by halting coal imports. North Korea may have wanted to demonstrate its capability to strike distant targets even as its sphere of influence in Asia is further curtailed.

Singapore is known to be a very safe country; which makes it a less attractive location for such a violent crime. Singapore’s airport security is internationally renowned as being one of the best so the assassins might find it hard to kill him there.
Malaysia is notorious for its lax customs security at the airport and is considered a very neutral and happy watered fertile ground. Malaysia also employs a non-violent approach towards any conflict, and would favor diplomatic discussions and global support.

An exception might be the Lahad Datu intrusion, which was fended off successfully in Ops Daulat, but Filipino and Indonesian authorities were also involved for a bit of it.

Now consider MACAU, a territory under Chinese authority and SINGAPORE, a strategic point of world trade lines and a key US ally in balancing the US-China South China Sea conflict. Should a North Korean assassination happen in either, it could be pronounced as a declaration of war and a threat to global peace, plus angering the US, the North’s nemesis and China, it’s biggest supporter.

The most Malaysia would do is to open some investigations, send some police to try to find the killer (since it’s a crime and they did detain some people) and voice it out internationally.

THIS IS WHY THEY DECIDED TO KILL KIM JONG NAM IN MALAYSIA. Why he killed , that’s another episode.

Malaysia in 20 years in the future



What and if Malaysia will exist in 20 year as a nation or a disintegrate into multiple nations as in case of Yugoslavia but peacefully

To make it simple I will only analysis for the territory call Malaya after Kelantan, Sarawak and Sabah secede


Please read and understand this link and do not throw away the progress Malaysia as a nation made and throw all these good things for the selfish agenda of a few narrow minded and greedy for power politicians who use Race and religion as a tool to remain in power and oppress the Malaysian Citizens or we as a nation will ended up like below


 
  Malaysia 2016

A.   Territory

1.     Southern Thailand Muslim majority provinces and Kelantan  will be a new Islamic nation and Sharia law will be the law of the new Nation and possible name Sultanate of Patani

2.     Federation of Malaya with Singapore included

3.     Sarawak and Brunei as one nation and it will be a republic

4.     Sabah as a Republic

B.    Economy

1.     Oil (Proven reserves 3.6 Billion Barrels) and gas reserves. At current rate of oil production, the oil reserves will last for 15 years if all crude oil is recovered but recovery rate at current technology is at maximum 70% of the proven reserves and will last 10.5 years without any new crude oil finds. Gas reserves to last for 13 years maximum at the rate of production. The proven oil reserves in Kelantan will go to the new nation of Kelantan and South Thai Malays , Terengganu Oil and gas field s will go to Malaya and the Oil and gas fields in Sarawak and Sabah will go to the new nations of Sarawak and Sabah

2.     Tin reserves will be depleted and sunset of tin industry in Malaya

3.     Rubber and oil palms estates near major towns will be converted into housing estates and industrial estates. Rubber and oil palm plantations will be in decline as Indonesia , Thailand , Myanmar , Cambodia , Laos , Vietnam will be producing Rubber and palm oil at cheaper cost and Malaysian plantation companies will relocate most of their operations in these countries

4.     Timber reserves with current rate of exploitation will last 10 years maximum

5.     Manufacturing industry – The labour intensive industries will relocate to Cambodia , Laos and Myanmar in 5 years’ time and Malaya will be left with minimal industries

6.     Highly skill manufacturing will move to English speaking countries Myanmar with a highly trained labour force in 10 years’ time

7.     The new economy is the result of the transition from a manufacturing-based economy to a service-based economy and will give Malaya a pass as the laws will be very restrictive for tourist to visit Malaya and the Tourism economy will be in a free fall and decline

8.     Labour – Malaya will be what Philippines was between 1975 to 2010 a net exporter of cheap labour , Maids , manual labour and unemployed graduates i.e. Computer engineers , civil , mechanical engineers , Doctors , nurses etc. to Middle East Muslim countries as by 10 years’ time the majority of the Muslim population will be Arabized

C.    Education

 

1.     Universities will cater for the export labour market by producing graduates required by the Middle east Job markets and skilled in the Arabic language

2.     Maid training centers to train the local female population to be maids and learn the Arabic language

3.     Training centers to in hospitality workers for the Middle east and fluent in Arabic

D.   Currency

1.     Same as what the Thai Baht and the Philippines Peso is now. The role and exchange rate will be revised

2.     US dollar will be the choice in the private economy as what is happening in Cambodia where the Government have accepted the US dollar as a legal tender in the country and same status as the Cambodia currency

E.   Population

1.     Confused and marginalized

2.     Unemployment at high levels

3.     Crime infested and major drug problem

4.     And every imaginable problem a fail nation haves

I hope all the above does not happen but the decay in the last 25 years have accelerated the decline of Malaysia economic manufacturing power house and the hospitality industry as the tourist of quality who spend 10 times of a tourist who now travels to Malaysia is giving Malaysia a big miss. Loss of 30 to 40 Billion Ringgit to the local economy yearly all because of push for full religious economy over a practical economy which provides jobs and money. It is already happening now and the people will grease and run the Malaysia true economy have been migrating to different countries and the rate have been increasing yearly. Malaysia is the next Yemen, poor in soul and poor in value
