Breaking News - The Accuser


extracted fm Peoples Parliment



Azmin Ali of PKR is quoted by NST online today :

“We were short of staff in the office and suddenly he came and volunteered, which we accepted in good faith,”

Last night, a regular reader called me to ask what I made of this latest accusation against Anwar and whether the ‘plant’ explanation that was being put out by PKR might not be an effort to discredit the complainant.

Now, if you’re a frequent visitor to this blog, you will know by now that I’m not a PKR or Anwar fan.

One person amongst the few in PKR that I do like is Din Merican.

Why?

Don’t know, but I half suspect it’s because he has a very kind face.

I know, I know, don’t judge a book by its cover, blah blah blah…

And I do keep in touch with Din from time to time.

More so in the run-up to the last elections.

Sometime in February this year, we had agreed to meet for lunch and I was to pick him up at Anwar’s office in Section 16, PJ.

When I got to the office, Din asked me to take a seat as he had a few loose ends to tie up.

As he attended to those ‘loose ends’, Din proceeded to disclose to me something that I made note of but made no inquiry of at the time. Let me try to narrate to you what he said as best as I can recall.

“UMNO has sent a spy. They think we don’t know. Now we are spying on the spy. And we are going to give him enough rope to hang himself. And when the time comes, we will tighten the noose”

So, no, I don’t think Azmin’s statement as quoted in NST online today is an attempt to discredit the complainant.

I think that on 28th June, the noose around the canary’s neck, or that of its owner’s, had gotten so tight that it started to sing ‘liwat, liwat’ in a high-pitched tone.

I’ll round this off by quoting Ong Kian Ming & Oon Yeoh in their latest Real Politik podcast on Malaysiakini :

‘The notion that a 61-year old with a bad back can forcibly sodomise a strapping 23-year old is laughable. This is simply not the kind of thing that anyone, not even Anwar’s harshest critic, is going to believe’

Ah All The Noise; Time to Switch Off

here you go Malaysia, Music to calm your weary minds:)

The Boxer

I am just a poor boy and my storys seldom told
Ive squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises
All lies and jest, still the man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest, hmmmm

When I left my home and my family, I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station, runnin scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters, where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know

Li la li...

Asking only workmans wages, I come lookin for a job, but I get no offers
Just a comeon from the whores on 7th avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there

Now the years are rolling by me, they are rockin even me
I am older than I once was, and younger than Ill be, thats not unusual
No it isnt strange, after changes upon changes, we are more or less the same
After changes we are more or less the same

Li la li...

And Im laying out my winter clothes, wishing I was gone, goin home
Where the new york city winters arent bleedin me, leadin me to go home

In the clearing stands a boxer, and a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down or cut him
til he cried out in his anger and his shame
I am leaving, I am leaving, but the fighter still remains
Yes he still remains

Li la li...

CRIME of THE CENTURY :(

Now theyre planning
the crime of the century

Well what will it be?
Read all about their schemes and adventuring
Its well worth a fee

So roll up and see
And they rape the universe
How theyve gone from bad to worse

Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?
Rip off the masks and let see.

But thats no right -
oh no, whats the story?
There's you and there's me

That cant be right

Oh, We are Such Damn Fooooooolss :)

Well, i'm flowing like the river,
too too too too too too much
to make of all these things
thats going around us ie Malaysians,
at times its just best to
shut down, head somewhere,
where there's a world waiting
to bring memories of sweetness,
youth and fun within ones mind.


School

I can see you in the morning
When you go to school
Don't forget our books,
You know you've got to learn the golden rule.

Teacher tells you
Stop your play and get on with your work,
And be like Johnnie Too good.
Don't you know he never shrinks,
he's coming along

After school is over
Your playing in the park,
Don't be out too late
Don't let it get too dark.
They tell you not to hang around
And learn what life's about
And grow up just like them,
Won't let you work it out
And you're full of doubt

Maybe I'm mistaken
Expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy
I don't know wrong from right.
But while I'mstill living
I've just got this to say
It's always up to you,
if you want to be that,
Want to see that,
want to see it that way.

Don't do this and don't do that
What are they tryin' to do ?
Make a good boy of you,
Do they know where it's at?
Don't criticise
they're old and wise
Do as they tell you to,
Don't want the devil to,
Come and pull out your eyes.


You're coming along

*********************************************************************

Hide in Your Shell

Hide
in your shell
cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain
making your life a little longer?

Heaven or Hell,
was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel?
Shelter behind
painting your mind and playing joker

Too Frightening
to listen to a stranger
Too Beautiful,
to put your pride in danger
You're waiting for,
someone to understand you

But you've got demons in your closet
And you're screaming out to stop it
Saying life's begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside now
Cos it's sure time you gained control
If I can help you,
if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost
To get your heartback and on the road
If I can help you,
if I can help you
If I can help you, just let me know.

All through the night
as you like awake and hold yourself so tight
What do you need,
a second-hand-movie-star to tend you?
I as a boy,
I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
How would it be
if you could see the world through my eyes?

Too Frightening- the fire's getting colder
Too Beautiful- to think you're getting older

You're waiting for someone to bring an answer.
But what you see is just an illusion
You're surrounded by confusion
Saying life's, begun to cheat you
Friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you can scramble for

Don't let the tears linger on inside...... in short time you'll gain control
if i can help you,
if i can help you,
if i can help you
please let me know

just let me knowI wanna know...I wanna know you...
Well let me know you
I wanna feel youI wanna touch you
Please let me near you
Can you hear what I'm saying?

Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin',
I'm prayin'I know what you're thinkin'
See what you're seein'
Never ever let yourself go
Hold yourself down, hold yourself down
Why d'ya hold yourself down?
Why don't you listen, you canTrust me,
There's a place I know the way to
A place there is need to feel you
Feel that you're alone

Hear me
I know exactly what you're feelin'
cos all your troubles are whithin you
please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to
Love me, love you
Loving is the way to
Help me, help you-
Why must we be so cool,
oh so cool,?

Oh, we're such damn fools...

As Tears Go By - Marianne Faithfull

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jf9w2hJIqUk&feature=rec-fresh

It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.


My riches cant buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.


It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things I used to do
They think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.


Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm ...
