Indon & Matdon message

Deputy Prime Minister Najib said although Indonesia's print media no longer needed licences to operate, and though Malaysia still have laws to control the freedom of press, the Indonesians should understand that Malaysia is still a more democratic country.

"They should understand the different situation in Malaysia."

"I know the pendulum has shifted in Indonesia but the pendulum is still the same here (in Malaysia)."

"We still have democracy," Najib said. That's important!

The question is how you interpret democracy, and how free is free. We are free, and that we must appreciate. We can walk the town and city, and play football. We can still go karaoke and sing some songs, and sing negaraku. We can criticise freely as long as we praise the government who had been doing everything for the rakyat.

We are a free country, that we must appreciate. If not, how can there be so many of you participating in vigils or demonstration. If not, how can those people go around and steal cars, rape and rob. It shows we are a free country, and we even allow these people the freedom to commit crime, but we have laws to punish them if they were caught by the police. We have enforcement agencies to catch the thieves and robbers and rapist. There are some who may be lucky to escape the law, but our enforcers will soon, very soon, catch them and then sent them to court to be tried. Of course, some we don't need to sent them for trials because we also have laws that gave the ministers the freedom not to put them on trial. But that's freedom too.

We are free! Go round the city and towns and see for yourselves, that everyone is free to walk about, go shopping, and eat. That's freedom and that's democracy! So don't compare us with Indon; they had a free press, but they should understand that they are not free to criticize our system as we are different. We can be differentiated because we have democracy.

UMNO Youth Deputy President and the son-in-law to the Prime Minister, Khairy Jamaluddin said: "I do not understand why the Election Commission Chairman is speculating on the election date."

In fact, even he haven't consult the dates with his father-in-law, so how can these other people know.

They had dinner together everyday and yet even he doesn't know, so how can Tan Sri Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman knows. He sleeps with the PM's daughter and if she also don't know, surely he also don't know; so how can Rashid know; unless of course she didn't tell him but told Rashid; but that's not possible because he's the husband and the father of her child.

"Stop Speculating," Khairy asked him and all other politicians.

You see, he never asked him to shut up; but only ask him not to speculate. He's well mannered and humble. So how can you all say he is lansi, and a lansi chai? Please lah, he's humble and he's also jobless; so please have some compassion on him. He's leng chai and only a little bit humsap, and not mayasap, but little only.
