Don't give in to unreasonable demands

The Indonesian government is too much when they are asking a minimum wage for the Indonesian maid.

In a report by The Star dated 9th June 2009, Dai Bachtiar who is the Indonesian Ambassador to Malaysia said that the minimum pay of RM600 a month will be implemented in September.

Hello! The maid are only a person that helps around the house. They are uneducated and some of them are lazy and acted like a mem in the house and will not listen to the instructions of the employer.

This normally happens when they live with a Malay family. When they live with a Chinese family, the Chinese employer will make them work from 6 a.m. to 12 a.m. which should be the way to teach these ungrateful maids.

Dai Bachtiar compared the rates with the rates paid in Saudi Arabia and Hong Kong which is RM900 and RM1,300 respectively. If they are so keen on working elsewhere that pays better, then go ahead. Nobody is stopping them to do that.

Malaysian employers have to pay up to RM8,000 for each maid and some of the maid are lazy like cows and some of them will run away from home due to their laziness that they would even leave behind their passports.

So, think what will happen is the maids are allowed to hold their own passport? The government should use their brain more and think about this, not just give in to whatever silly demands of the Indonesian government.

Senator Parlindungan Purba, the Indonesian Entrepreneur Association president, said a minimum wage of RM450 a month is sufficient for Indonesian maids in Malaysia.

If the Indonesian government is adamant for the maids to be paid a minimum wage of RM600, then maybe the Malaysian employer should CONSIDER DEDUCTING THE COST OF ROOM RENT (RM350), THE COST OF ELECTRICITY (RM50), THE COST OF FOOD (RM100) AND OTHER COSTS. All of that costs money and it is not fair if only the employer have to bear the burden of the extra charges. What do you think of that?

Now most of the maids are living free of charge with the employer, so if the Indonesian government are so demanding, that is what the Malaysian government and the Malaysian employers should do.

The Malaysian government should not be too lenient with the Indonesian government because the maids are the ones who should not be demanding too much since they cannot get that much pay or any work in their own country.

RM358.34 is equivalent to Indonesian Rupiah of 1 million. So even if the maid work as maids, if they keep their money after working for instance 10 years, they will go back and live like billionaires in their own country.

So what more are they demanding? Even a new graduate working in Malaysia cannot possibly be a millionaire after working 10 years.

Another one has left Anwar Ibrahim

It looks like Putrajaya is getting further and further away from Anwar Ibrahim with the latest announcement by Eddy Berhan Ruslan, 51, Deputy division chief of the Tawau PKR that he has quit the party to join, UMNO.

Muahahahaha. Where is the 30 MPs propogated by Anwar that he said wants to join Pakatan Rakyat?

PKR had run out of ideas in fighting for the people he said when he explained why he decided to join UMNO.

PKR is now looking more and more to be only championing the rights of a homosexual who sodomises his coffee boy rather than the rights of the people.

So why should the people vote for PKR the next time?

2. Why?


3. What can be done by UMNO and BN to ensure the 2/3 majority in the 13th general election?

Spit on the Malay Liberal called KJ!

Perkasa Presiden Datuk Ibrahim Ali had been so pissed off with the gall of Khairy Jamaluddin siding with Wee Ka Siong that he had called for the resignation as the member of parliament for "sacrificing the honour of his own race".

By the way, anyone heard the news about Maya Karin going to the Syariah Court? Surely this has something to do with the marriage problem she is having. Anyone going to Syariah Court normally has something to do with DIVORCE.

Maya Karin and her husband Steven David Shorthose (whose Muslim name is Muhammad Ali) denied rumours of divorce. Does the marriage problem brewing between them exists but we will wait and see if their marriage is on the rocks because of KJ who had been rumoured to be having an affair with the beautiful actress?

Wee Ka Siong had been so disrespectful by asking whether MARA scholarship will be done as the JPA scholarship. That is the implied statement done so smoothly so that he can deny he had been racist. But the truth that is staring right at your face is that, he is just as racist as the racist kiasu in DAP although he is the MCA Youth Chief.

“If the government is only doing away with the PSD scholarships but retain the Mara scholarships, this will not be in line with the 1 Malaysia concept that the government is promoting,” he was quoted as saying.

On June 25th, Malaysian Insider had published an article titled "KJ calls Ibrahim Ali a jaguh kampung".

“He (Ibrahim) is a jaguh kampung in a world of globalisation. Which era is he in? He has become a hindrance to the concept of 1 Malaysia,” the Umno Youth Chief said in a posting on Twitter today.

Who the bloody hell is he to call Datuk Ibrahim Ali a small timer? Khairy Jamaluddin is a butt fuckers' supporter and only acting to be attacking the butt fucker, Anwar Ibrahim. Moreover, you are just like Anwar who is the Jew agent.

Come on KJ. Everybody except those who are your butt licker and proxies whom I am sure you are paying heftily are demanding that you resign from UMNO since you are not doing anything to improve the support of the youth since you are so busy defending racist kiasus in BN.

We should either spit or shit on KJ. Cast your vote. Muahahahah.

Forwards. What do you think?

Being a graduate debtor gives me sleepless nights

I AM among the thousands who benefited from the government's National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) loans during my varsity years in the late 1990s.

Today, I am a journalist. Though my pay is not lucrative - I cannot afford a car, nor do I own a house, a BlackBerry, or a gym membership - I love my job.

I was an average student in school but I scored Grade 1 with four A's in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia examination. That did not get me a seat in a public university or a scholarship. But I got a place at a reputable private university in the country.

But when I saw the steep tuition fees, I wanted to throw the offer letter into the dustbin. I got ready to do Form Six and had even bought my uniform.

However, my family made a big deal of it as I was the first to be offered a seat in university.

I spoke to my seniors who were not offered a place in a public university and those who went to "affordable" universities to pursue a course that they were not passionate about. I heard tonnes of sad stories.

Then one day, my father rushed home with a newspaper article that said undergraduates would be eligible for loans from PTPTN.

And my life changed forever.

I took the loan and I am grateful to the government for providing me and my friends this assistance.

PTPTN loaned me RM49,500. Since I started working, I have been trying to repay my loan as much as I can every month.

I give a fair sum to my elderly parents who do not have any other form of income, pay for my rented place in the city, and rely solely on public transport.

Now I pay PTPTN more than the required sum a month. But I still owe RM49,839. I did not pay the required monthly sum from the beginning because I couldn't afford it.

I was among the many who were recently sent notices to pay up our overdue payments within 14 days or face the law. My overdue payments to date is more than RM4,000.

That gave me sleepless nights. Even while I was hospitalised for influenza A (H1N1), I was thinking about it.

It's exhausting, but I plan to repay what I owe with my bonus, plus all my little savings. I hope I do not get a lawyer's notice before that.

I believe PTPTN is the reason why many of my friends and I from middle- and low-income families could attend university.

I'm from a small town and so are many of my friends. We believe in repaying our loans. Please do not stereotype all of us.

Most of us are not in multi-level marketing businesses, do not have much in the bank or posh cars parked at our houses.

You might suggest that I should ask my parents to mortgage their only asset, their house, to finance my education. But most of us would rather not go to university if it came to that.

In fact, many people told me not to go to university but get a job because my parents might not be able to pay my tuition fees, and that bank loans came with very high interest rates.

PTPTN rewrote my fate. The fund gave people like me the opportunity to have a quality education.

Most of us found it hard to get part-time jobs while at university. Even when we did, it was tough balancing studies and coursework.

We all had bad hairdos and some guys rarely visited the barber. I remember waiting for the loan to be banked into my account just so that I could get a haircut.

I had friends who had several siblings studying in university at the same time. How could their parents afford their education without the help of PTPTN?

So I urge former students who took the loans to get their act together and repay what they owe.

You must repay your loan. You might be denying others their dreams by not repaying your study loan.

Parents, too, could be more farsighted and plan for their children's education.

Though education up to the secondary level in this country is virtually free, most parents are still in the dark as to how much higher education can cost.

I hold no grudge against my parents for not financing my education and making me a debtor the minute I graduated because they did everything they possibly could.

But I will plan ahead for my children's education and think of ways to settle my PTPTN loan now.

I saw this on PTPTN's website: "Elakkanlah dirimu dari berhutang kerana hutang itu akan menjadikan dirimu hina pada waktu siang dan gelisah pada waktu malam - Luqman Al-Hakim."

It means one should avoid having loans because one will be ostracised in the day and have sleepless nights.

I think PTPTN debtors are going through this now.

I say:

Every successful person now had been using loan money from PTPTN. The government had given the loan to help the students so that they can graduate with flying colours.

Pay the loan when you have a steady job. When you are facing trouble, just write to them to explain to them why you had postponed your payment. I am sure that PTPTN will not be that cruel if they understand the trouble that you are facing. The thing is that most students have not done that and are escaping their responsibility to pay the loan after they had graduated.

Don't be an ungrateful brat who simply forgets the government's help towards you. If you don't pay the loan, you are denying new students to get the loan since the government can't get back what they had invested in you.

The present Barisan Nasional government wasted, spent more money to their families and cronies than to the people. Plundering of the rakyats' money are through CORRUPTIONS, FAILED GLCs PROJECTS BUT NO ONE REPRIMANDED (the irony is that the companies are in bad shape with many failed ventures but the Directors are rich. I wonder whether their conscience is clear or not or maybe they dont have any conscience at all), ABUSE OF POWER IN THE GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION, TAKING COMMISSION FROM GOVERNMENT PURCHASES WHEN THE PURCHASES CAN BE DEALT DIRECTLY WITHOUT HAVING TO GO THROUGH A 3RD PARTY ACTUALLY, EXESSIVELY JACKED UP PRICES IN GOVERNMENT PROJECTS TO COVER COMMISSIONS BUT THE END PRODUCTS ARE SUB-STANDARDS eg COLLAPSED BUILDINGS, CRACKED HIGHWAYS, etc etc etc.

We as a nation and people are moving towards bankcruptcy in economy, politics, moral and everything else. We are not building a good civilisation with this present government.

They are BARISAN PEROMPAK actually not barisan nasional.

Come next election be it by (buy) election or general election,

VOTE THEM OUT!!!!

Flashback of the manifesto

I say :

How can you be sure that Pakatan Rakyat will be better since they had not even realised their empty general election promises to the people of Selangor? Even the 20 ml free water promised to the people cannot be fulfilled. What more the money promised to single mothers, old folks, students, Selangor born child etc.

Racist kiasu including KJ can go to hell

Datuk Ibrahim Ali was right in accusing Wee as being racist. Khairy Jamaludin should just keep his filthy mouth shut since he seems to be favouring other races rather than siding with his own.

We don't want a Malay liberal like him since the Malay race who represents the majority of the Malaysian population are still not in control of the economy of their own country.

Oh! And by the way, congratulations KJ for not getting any nomination to continue his successful duty in FAM. Bravo KJ! That is the proof of how much you are loved by all.

What would be the most perfect is if the UMNO Youth does not nominate him to be the UMNO Youth Chief who so far, had been so very successful in bringing in the youths to support UMNO.

MCA Youth Chief Wee Ka Siong should ask the richer Chinese that represents 8 out of the 10 names of the richest men in Malaysia to set up scholarship funds to help their own race instead of trying to be racist.

Therefore, this means that the Chinese are in control of the economy of Malaysia. The richer Chinese should help the poorer Chinese.

"This is not the first time that he has questioned the Malay rights. He once described the resolutions reached at the Bumiputera Economic Congress on May 29, in which Perkasa was a participant, as primitive," Tok Him said.

Don't be fooled by the Chinese in MCA and Gerakan since lately they are showing their true colours of echoing what had been said by the Chinese in DAP.

Anwar kacau bini orang
