After all, one or the other will produce the next US President and Administration. And you don't want to mess around with them.<br /><br />So save the caterwauling for the cognoscenti. And if you feel that strongly about it, go burn the Stars and Stripes in front of the US Embassy in KL, or shout the appropriate slogans.<br /><br />Realpolitik works a whole lot differently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-60673692661255450782013-11-22T17:50:15.049+08:002013-11-22T17:50:15.049+08:00Nst @ surat khabar nyamuk...

Call Bersih's bluff.<br /><br />Heard Cecil Abraham was only worried of the title. Bersih side will argue that they have no intention to topple the government. only fighting for human rights and various mumbo jumbo claims.<br /><br />Actually most of the allegations written in Fara article can be substantiated and proven. The game played by Bersih's follows a trend by American operatives in Philippines and other countries.<br /><br />Heck . . .the whole of oppositions modes operandi follows Gene Sharpe to the letter and can be showed.<br /><br />Even if NST loses, at least all these is laid out in court and both side of the media can report. Rakyat will be made aware and form their own opinions.<br /><br />Usually judge's judgement is based on a certain premise. There is room for the public to continue to debate on the judgement.<br /><br /> A good spin can turn a loss into a moral victory. More important, the public is more aware of the threat posed by Bersih's and the opposition.<br /><br />If NST is so worried of losing money from the lawsuit, the should go into the more lucrative chicken rearing business. As chickens themselves, they no the business better than newspaper business.<br /><br />However, without guts and brevity, they can't do anything else. stay home and fondle their cocks.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-13923041728827632912013-11-22T12:37:02.951+08:002013-11-22T12:37:02.951+08:00i dunno about Utusan taking their lawsuits in stri...i dunno about Utusan taking their lawsuits in stride as how you put it.

According to these annual reports, the Malaysian recipients, amongst others are:<br />Malaysiakini USD400k (2009-12)<br />Suaram USD535k (2005-11)<br />Merdeka Centre USD135k (2011-12)<br /><br />There's also the Islamic Renaissance Front which got USD50k last year. You may remember them for criticizing the govt on the Allah issue recently. <br /><br />But most of the money NED channels to Malaysia went to the International Republican Institute and National Democratic Institute which have been implicated with involvement in coups in Latin America and the Arab Spring. That NED, NDI and IRI are all creations of Ronald Reagan and the chairman of IRI is John McCain should tell us something about their objectives. <br /><br />The fact that Suaram, Malaysiakini et al, are involved with and have been getting money from these groups IS newsworthy. It's a shame that NST managed to really botch it.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-68903357374290386872013-11-22T10:33:31.839+08:002013-11-22T10:33:31.839+08:00Firstly they admit they did not 'verify' t...Firstly they admit they did not 'verify' their sources.<br />Secondly the admit that "they had no proof whatsoever to substantiate their allegations".<br />That is pretty basic journalistic processes to follow.<br />Thus not only is the reporter a liar but that the editors failed to do their job. <br /><br />If that happened at say the 'Washington Post', The Guardian or any other well known papers the editors and reporter would be fired.<br /><br />This ranks as total stupidity and incompetence.Mazlannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-19215989158480566582013-11-22T09:33:48.964+08:002013-11-22T09:33:48.964+08:00NST unlike Utusan which got the UMNO piggy bank to...NST unlike Utusan which got the UMNO piggy bank to defend their lies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-60761349562809319852013-11-22T08:45:38.668+08:002013-11-22T08:45:38.668+08:00BN aka UMNO too have foreign funding that why the ...BN aka UMNO too have foreign funding that why the appologies, what else can it be?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19741162.post-56446099277681385592013-11-22T07:47:22.872+08:002013-11-22T07:47:22.872+08:00Farah reporter may have won awards...but you know ...Farah reporter may have won awards...but you know malaysian awards, they have little credibility. Since NST didi not defend her, she should do the honourable thing and just resign from NST. But what will probably happen is that this girl will be given a promotion.<br />Receiving foreign funds (a paltry RM20m-why didn't they quote it in USD? not sensational enough USD6m?) covering a period of 6 years for more than 5 NGO's is not newsworthy-even the JKKK gets more than this).<br />And to equate this with a plot to stabilise the government...is so laughable.
