Admitted : They just want to reach out to the Malay speaking Malaysians!


Got hold of this Israel newspaper and it tells the real reason for the usage of Allah by Herald!

The Catholic Church, which publishes a Malay version of its newspaper, The Herald, says that it uses the word "Allah" for the Christian God to meet the needs of its Malay speaking worshippers on the island of Borneo.

What they want was to "meet the needs of its Malay speaking worshippers" and it have nothing to do with Allah being their God!
They have succeeded in Sabah and Sarawak and they now want to spread their wings to the Malay speaking and Malay reading Malaysians in Peninsular Malaysia.

The Court must now take public cognizance that if "Allah" is allowed to be used by the Catholic Christians, there can be chaos and there are reasons to believe that public security can be threatened!

    Salam Dato Sam,

    They got online version of the Herald which is available in 3 version - Malay, Mandarin and Tamil. The Malay version is the only one who translated God into Allah. But not the other two, Mandarin and Tamil. The question is WHY? They (answered) claimed that it is for the East Malaysians. Oh! Really? I think the real agenda is that they want to reach the Malay Muslim. They use the Malay online version of the Herald to do the trick. Why don't the Majlis Agama Islam takes any legal action since the Herald use the online version that may (which I believe their real agenda is to) reach the Muslim? They use "Allah" etc etc in their Malay online version. It was obviously against the Enakmen, right? What say you Dato?

Prerogative of Mercy. Beg Your Pardon...

Ada terpandang video oleh Zaid Ibrahim tentang Pardon. Dia kata itu Prerogative of Mercy oleh Agong dan Raja2. High Prerogative of Mercy....or something like that lah. Itu betul. Tapi kalau nak kata process itu tidak ada procedure tak betul lah. Perlembagaan kita dan Akta Penjara telah tetapkan procedure nya. Agong & Raja2 juga perlu bertindak ikut Perlembagaan dan Undang2. Maka itu lah sebabnya digelar Raja Berperlembagaan. Dalam Perlembagaan ditetapkan mesti diadakan Pardons Board yang dipengerusikan oleh Tuanku sendiri. Antara lain Pardons Board itu akan bermesyuarat, pertimbangkan Petisyen yang dikemukakan, dapatkan nasihat dan pandangan ahli Pardons Board itu dan minta nasihat dan pandangan dari Peguam Negara. Bukan macam cerita filem purba. Bukan macam cerita Sultan Melaka ampunkan Hang Tuah untuk tujuan suruh bertikam dengan Hang Jebat. Bukan sebab Sultan Melaka menyesal tersalah hukum Hang Tuah. Bukan ampunkan Hang Tuah sebab Hang Jebat handal sangat dan hanya Hang Tuah sah

Setiausaha Politik selama 18 tahun (2000-2018)

Apabila YB Dato' Adnan Yaakob dilantik sebagai Menteri Besar Pahang, beliau telefon saya bertanya samada saya hendak tak datang ke Kuantan bekerja dengan dia. "Sam, Long ingat elok awak berubah angin. Mari datang Kuantan kerja dengan Long". Begitu lah kata-kata beliau. Kebetulan tahun 1999 itu saya kurang betul menumpukan perhatian kepada kerja-kerja sebagai lawyer. Anak saya baru meninggal pada 20hb August 1998. Dato' Adnan dilantik sebagai MB pada 25hb Mei 1999. "Come lah work with me. We see how I can place you in the MB's Office" Begitu lah Long Nan beritahu saya. "Boleh lah Long. Setahun dua boleh kot. I like myself more as lawyer, Long...." "OK...mari lah setahun dua" Itu jawab Dato' Adnan. "Tapi Long tak boleh lah bagi awak gaji besar Sam...." Sambung Dato' Adnan. "Kita tengok lah mana yang sesuai". Tambah beliau. Pada mulanya sejak bulan Mei 1999 itu saya hanya berulang alik KL-Kuantan. Tujuan

Melayu Ada Kelas Ke? (Bab 2)

Prodigal Maestro membawa ingatan saya ke tahun 1985. Pada tahun itu saya memulakan karier sebagai seorang lawyer setelah letak jawatan dari Judicial & Legal Service. Saya berkenalan dengan Dato' Mohd Ariff Ibrahim (DMA). Beliau seorang akauntan dengan Hanafiah Raslan Mohamad (HRM). Di HRM saya juga kenal Hassan Merican, Toby Lam dan lain-lain. Itu pun kerana saya dengan legal firm Messrs. Gill & Tang dan PS Gill adalah rakan kongsi saya. PS Gill adalah bapa kepada Asha Gill. Ya... Asha Gill dalam Astro tu! DMA adalah orang Kelantan dan isteri beliau Tengku Fatihah Ibni Sultan Ibrahim (Ku Ah) saudara kepada Sultanah Johor dan juga Raja Permaisuri Perlis. Saya terpegun dengan kereta Rolls Royce mereka nombor plat DA 3 (Dato' Ariff 3). Kalau tidak silap hanya ada 9 lagi Rolls Royce yang dimiliki oleh orang Melayu selain dari yang dimiliki oleh Sultan, Raja dan Yang DiPertuan Negeri. Raslan tidak minat Rolls Royce dan lebih gemar kepada Porche (atau Ferrari...saya dah tak i
