He forgot the contribution of his daddy towards the decline of education and called on the Government to abolish the vernacular school system as a means to enhance unity among people of various races. He also urged all parties to stop harping on issues that could create tension among Barisan component parties, including on the issue of Ketuanan Melayu or Malay supremacy. Many do not think that the reason for disunity is vernacular schools. It is the special this special that. On the ISA he really does not get it does he? He says "When we allow people to hold demonstrations and protests without enforcing the laws, such as ISA, to control the situation, it will result in by-elections not going our way. " By that statement alone he exposes that he will be a dictator and a wannabe tyrant, indeed by-elections not going his way! The Star spins it by saying "Umno Youth Leaders want to meet demands of all races" Yeah right, 3 Malay ultras with their track record! Great Leader in the making? I will not be too long on Mukhriz. Ha, the second candidate for the covetted post, the infamous SIL, the most recent incident being in Perak. This is a cut and paste job from The Malaysian Insider. You figure this rabble rouser. His defence of the practice of raising the keris at the Umno general assembly, which made Malaysians nervous and uneasy. This is what he did in Perak, just to get some brownie points with the rabble, for his bid to be the Umno Youth Goon-In-Chief. He asked for Datuk Nizar Jamaluddin to be banished. Provocative: Since when did Umno/Barisan Nasional politicians decide who should be banished from a state? Who gave Umno Youth politicians auxiliary police powers to provide a ring of security around the state government’s building? But instead of showing humility and some circumspection at having come to power through the defection of three Pakatan Rakyat lawmakers, Umno/BN politicians seem content to strut around the state, tossing threats and thumping chests. Read here more on Khairy.I save the best for last, drum roll, rollllllllling, Khir Toyo! Khir Toyo is a fine example of true-to-form product manufactured by the beast, Mahathir’s factory. His favourite catch-phrase “I didn’t do it.” This being the latest, the Elizabeth Wong case , he might or not be the architect in this dastardly deed. By pressuring Elizabeth Wong to quit over the public circulation of her pictures taken by someone else in private without her knowledge and consent, Umno and Khir Toyo have postured themselves as 'moral guardians' of the nation. Zero Illegal Squatters Mission
It was a mission set by Khir Toyo himself to make Selangor, a state of ‘zero squatters’. Toyo has been criticized for approving housing projects in squatter’ areas and forcing the residents to move out from their "illegal" homes. Some of the so called "illegal homes" had been built before independence in 1957, maybe even before Khir was born. Most squatters living in a prime area were left homeless and received very little compensation. The majority of the squatters are now forced to rent or live in low-cost flats. Luxurious Exco Village
The Selangor State Government had spent an estimated RM40 million to build an “EXCO VILLAGE” which comprised 10 bungalows and a clubhouse in Section 7, Shah Alam exclusively for the use of Selangor executive councilors. State Opposition members questioned the rationale for the estimated RM40mil wastage of public funds. Housing ProjectMuch of the land which belonged to state government was sold for housing projects during Khir Toyo’s administration. The land was meant for forest reserves or for a public parks. The land involved was the Batu Tiga Speedway Circuit in Shah Alam, which was built in the year 1968. Corruption and bribery
Khir Toyo had been accused of corruption for approving a construction project which trespasses into the Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam in Shah Alam, a forest reserve. To prove his innocence, Toyo had asked Anti-Corruption Agency of Malaysia to investigate the incident. No answers have been forth coming since. One circus clown to another. Money Politics
Khir Toyo could have been arrested by the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) and charged for corruption in connection with the Ijok by-election in Selangor if the ACA has been an independent and professional body. This is because even before the Ijok by-election nomination day, money politics to buy votes had started with the announcement by Khir Toyo of RM36 million for various development projects in the Ijok constituency. Instead, the ACA had acted “blind, deaf and mute” to such money politics and corrupt practices to buy votes in the by-election. Zakaria Mat Deros illegal mansionZakaria Mat Deros, the Klang assemblyman (UMNO) in Selangor built his illegal mansion without any proper construction permit from the local government. He built the illegal mansion in an urban poor district in Klang which was supposed to be used for low-cost housing. Under Selangor law, his illegal mansion should have been seized and Zakaria should have be prosecuted. However, Toyo has been criticized for forgiving Zakaria’s mistake and did not take any action against Zakaria. Zakaria died of a heart attack in his home on 11 March 2008 at about 1.30 am Malaysian time. Balkis Accounts ScandalAfter the March 8 Malaysian General Elections, Wives of Selangor Assemblymen and MPs Welfare and Charity Organization (Balkis) transferred out the RM9.9mil from its coffers, a few days after the state fell to the Opposition. Khir Toyo said the money was “temporarily transferred” to the Association of Wives of Ministers and Deputy Ministers (Bakti) . Defending the money transfer, then president Zahrah Kechik said she had the legal right because her husband Mohd Khir Toyo was still the caretaker Selangor Menteri Besar at that time. The state government, however, is questioning the transfer of the money and seeking legal advice. It has also asked the Registrar of Societies to put on hold the dissolution of Balkis. Auditors for the Wives of Selangor Assemblymen and MPs Welfare and Charity Organization (Balkis) said the charity’s accounts for 2007 were never audited or finalised, contrary to claims by Mohd Khir Toyo. Pig Rearing ProjectWhen Khir Toyo was Menteri Besar of Selangor, he and his cabinet had made a study to build pig-rearing facility in Selangor. This pig-rearing facility would be a high-tech integrated pig-rearing project with cleaner techniques to reduce pollution. The new Menteri Besar, Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, announced that the RM100million integrated pig-rearing project, which was approved by the former Barisan state government led by Khir Toyo, would proceed. Khir Toyo denied it and said he had never approved the pig-rearing project. This led Khalid to show the picture of some of Toyo’s cabinet visiting a pig-rearing centre in Germany to the media. Accused of Spreading Lies about a Petition to Ban Mosques from Airing AzanKhir Toyo accused that a Pakatan Rakyat component party was trying to ban mosques from broadcasting the azan (Muslim call to prayer) on loudspeakers. On September 11, Kota Raja Member of Parliament MP, Siti Mariah Mahmood has lodged a police report against Khir Toyo in Dang Wangi Police Station. She lodged the police report against former Selangor Menteri Besar Khir Toyo together with the website pembelamelayu for spreading malicious slander and lies about certain quarters pressuring the state authorities to tone down the call to prayer at mosque and surau in the state. On September 12, 2008 DAP’s Seputeh MP Teresa Kok was arrested under ISA. We created this crook. Wemust get rid of him. Let us pass the baton to the younger generation of Malaysians smoothly so that they can live in a peaceful Malaysia, devoid of crooks like Khir Toyo.
