Yes, that's right. There is no so called "Constituitional Crisis" as erroneously dubbed by mainstream media. Terrengganu Sultan(Our Agong as well) is not sleeping like sombody does. Just look on below and you will know why.

对于林吉祥强烈反对霹雳州由回教党的议员担任州务大臣，以及表示霹雳行动党中选议员将杯葛明天举行的州务大臣就职典礼一事，希望诸位不要反应过大；仓促下判断。
以此作为行动党不以大局为重搞破坏的结论未免过于轻率了。
当摆在你面前的是臭鸡蛋和烂苹果，而你必须二择一时，你必须选择一个不是最坏的决定。
然而，就算你选择了臭鸡蛋你也必须表示这并不代表从此你就爱上臭鸡蛋；你必须告诉其他人你选择了臭鸡蛋是因为你没有办法。
由于州宪法的限定，非回教徒无法担任州务大臣的职位。因此就算行动党在州政府里拥有最多议员也无法出任此重职。理应赢得第二多议席的公正党应该出任州务大臣，但其最有经验的候选人确只有SPM程度，因此自然无法但当一州之君的角色。所以只好由回教党担当了。借霹雳苏丹钦点州务大臣，也算是好让行动党日后可以向选民交代。
凭心而论，我认为在行动党执政槟州之后，不好再在霹雳担任州务大臣。毕竟我们必须考量友族同胞的感受。如此大的转变我害怕他们接受不来；下次投回给国阵就得不尝失了。
可是让回教党在霹雳担任州务大臣后，行动党一定会被华人痛骂；甚至被指责出卖华人的利益。因此，行动党强烈反对回教党担任州务大臣的动作就非做不可。毕竟霹雳还有许多老ah pek、auntie书念得不多；又容易被人洗脑，因此必须做些事情安抚安抚他们。
华人可说是见到回教党就好像见到鬼一样。短期而言，行动党或许会面对千夫所指。可是塞翁失马；焉知非福。长期而言，行动党正好可以向全国华人证明就算和回教党合作，我们也不会变成回教国；回教法也不会设施在非回教徒身上。只要行动党在霹雳做到这一点，以后就不怕马华再拿回教党来恐吓华裔选民了。这不就解决了我国反对党是无法合作组成联盟的梦魇吗？
所以，真正考研反对党人的智慧刚刚才开始。我们还是坐在一旁看好戏吧！

PENANG, Malaysia -- The new leader of Malaysia's Penang state announced major reversals in policy Tuesday, including open bidding for government contracts, after his opposition party won elections for the first time in four decades.
Lim Guan Eng, sworn in for a five-year term as chief minister of the northern state Tuesday, also said his government will review a a 25 billion ringgit project to develop the city center of Penang island, which has raised concern among residents.
Lim's opposition Democratic Action Party won control of Penang in Saturday's election, unseating the National Front coalition that had been in power since 1969, in one of the biggest electoral upsets in Malaysia's history.
The reforms are part of the new government's "agenda for change to re-establish rule by the people," Lim said in a statement released soon after he took control of the state, the site of many multinational electronics companies such as Intel and Dell. Besides being the country's industrial heartland, the island of Penang is also known as its tourism jewel.
It is the first time the Chinese-based Democratic Action Party has come to power in any state in Malaysia, where 12 of its 13 states have always been under the National Front, a coalition dominated by the Malay-based party representing the country's majority ethnic Malay Muslims.
Besides Penang, the National Front also lost in four other states to a three-party opposition coalition of which the DAP is a member. At the federal level, the National Front's traditional two-thirds majority in Parliament was reduced to a simple majority as the opposition alliance boosted its strength from 19 seats to 82 in the 222-member house.
Lim said in a statement that his government will do away with the New Economic Policy, an affirmative action program for Malays, in awarding state contracts.
"We will run the government administration free from the New Economic Policy that breeds cronyism, corruption and systemic inefficiency," Lim said in the statement, which effectively pledges to turn upside down most of National Front policies.
"We will implement an open tender system for all government procurement and contracts," he said, referring to the practice of state contracts being awarded only to ethnic Malay-based companies in secret tenders.
"We will also practice transparency by uploading information of such tender bids in an Internet portal to be set up in future for public access," he said.
In other reforms, Lim said all state government members and civil servants will be required to publicly declare their assets.
"This is a government that is based on democracy. This is also a government that believes in equal opportunity and social economic justice. We are here to build a dynamic Penang for all," he said.
He said he will also seek to restore elections to appoint local government councils, which until now were appointed by the government.
Lim pledged to remain investor friendly and take steps to woo foreign investment that creates high paying jobs.
以下这段是’某某者‘在我前一则张贴“SPR is a BIG LIAR!!!”的留言。我觉得很有意思，所以决定回应。
What i heard from the Chinese at my hometown :
"UMNO VS PAS - VOTE PAS
UMNO VS KEADILAN - VOTE KEADILAN
MCA VS DAP - VOTE MCA"
“我們知道馬來人的政治態度，他們即使對政府不滿，也會確保集中力量於政治管道，讓他們代表族群在政府裡決定命運，不會自我削弱。因此，大部份馬來人都傾向支持巫統。”
黃家定說，這個現象持續了50多年，接下去也會如此；但華人若一半選擇抗議，一半選擇支持執政力量，主流執政力量就會失去平衡，而馬來社會代表繼續擴大。
他表示，當在外面喊叫的人以華人為主，執政趨勢將形成馬來人支配政府，做決定時不平衡，因為華人在政府里太弱，無法有效講出華人心聲。
“在外面幾強都好，肯定教訓不到巫統，反而會弄巧反拙，使許多事情在內部決定了，我們還在外面喊喊叫叫。”
幾年才獲一次權利
拿選票發洩對不起自己
黃家定說，幾年才獲得一次投票的權利，如果拿這票去發泄、抗議及教訓別人，這樣的話才膚淺，也太對不起自己。
“投票目的是選政府，必須確保本身及族群還有社群往後的日子是否會更好及有保障，同時，也要選出能符合自己心裡所想的政治代表。”
黃家定說，當選民投下手中一票前，必須先想想這張票是祖先爭取憲法保障公民權地位下得到參政機會才有的權利，非常寶貴及不易。而且，一個人的一生中只有10多次的投票機會。
“我們必須非常客觀、理性及冷靜地問自己，投票的意義是甚麼，而這一票是否對得起自己、家庭、民族、社會及國家，這是非常嚴肅的事情。”
以上这些话我肯定是出自于马华领袖的口中。为什么我会如此肯定？很简单，因为马华在这届大选最主要的策略就是要说服华人相信即使把票投给反对党也无法教训巫统，同时却削弱华人在朝的政治力量。今天，我在这里将会和大家一起“揭开谎言；扫除迷惑；寻找真理” 。有些谎言说了一百次可以变成真。所以我们要揭开马华的每一个谎言，以正视听。我会向以上的每一个论点进行反驳；让大家评评理。
“我們知道馬來人的政治態度，他們即使對政府不滿，也會確保集中力量於政治管道，讓他們代表族群在政府裡決定命運，不會自我削弱。因此，大部份馬來人都傾向支持巫統” 。
错！在1999年大选时，因为安华事件马来人有超过一半是投给反对党。导致巫统的议席减至七十多席。可是却因为华人大量投给国阵，因此国阵依然执政。我们失去了一个变天的契机！当马来人想变时，华人却“缩沙” ！在华人大量支持国阵之后，巫统是否有知恩图报呢？事实是没有！还记得“华团大选诉求吗” ？99年大选前当时的首相敦马答应‘诉求” ，可是大选过后却反口；甚至说当时只是权宜之计罢了。巫青团过后还拉队到吉隆坡雪华堂门口，炯言要烧掉雪华堂把华人赶回中国！当时整个事件闹得热哄哄，如箭在弦上。马华在那里？当华社在大选大量的投给国阵才让国阵保着政权后，换来的就是这些吗？得益者马华有在维护我们吗？马华过后还和发展商狼狈为奸，看中白小原地为黄金地，硬硬的把白小关掉！马华可以为了真黄金卖了黄金屋啊！华人还可以对它有什么期许？
"他表示，當在外面喊叫的人以華人為主，執政趨勢將形成馬來人支配政府，做決定時不平衡，因為華人在政府里太弱，無法有效講出華人心聲。"
马来人支配政府这点是无可否认的。所以我们这次要用选票教训巫统！马来人支配政府是不可能通过壮大马华而改变的。因为马华和其他政党在执政集团里已经沦为次要支配；被边缘化了。记得在2006年发生的穆地争尸案吗？黄家定不是率领众内阁非回教徒部长向首相提呈备忘录吗？当时的我也被黄家定的行为感到意外，觉得马华这次真的做对了，马华还是有希望的。结果呢？当首相遣责相关行为时，隔天黄家定马上说他要收回备忘录；说什么程序不对但是会在内部争取。后来呢？马华在内部争取了些什么？无声无息了！大家都当作什么事情也没有发生过。由此可见，巫统的霸道，霸权是无法通过内部制衡的。既然内部机制失灵，那么人民就唯有通过外面的反对党了。反正继续支持马华也是死，不如在外壮大反对党实现两线制。我们华人有一句话，就是“跪著活不如站著死” 。继续支持马华只会壮大巫统，马华又无法制衡巫统；这和慢性自杀有什么分别？人民千万不要相信国阵的那一套，说什么把票投给反对党经济发展就会没有保障、国家就会乱。。。事实上全世界没有一个国家因为换政府而衰亡的；只有不把腐败的政府换掉才会衰亡。古罗马王朝就是一个经典例子！
黃家定說，當選民投下手中一票前，必須先想想這張票是祖先爭取憲法保障公民權地位下得到參政機會才有的權利，非常寶貴及不易。而且，一個人的一生中只有10多次的投票機會。
“我們必須非常客觀、理性及冷靜地問自己，投票的意義是甚麼，而這一票是否對得起自己、家庭、民族、社會及國家，這是非常嚴肅的事情。”
就是因为选票宝贵所以选民不可以再继续浪费！就是因为下一代所以我们要为他们创造一个更好的居住环境。我们可不像将来当我们的孩子问回我们到底我们为他们做了些什么的时候才来后悔已晚。
最后我想表达的讯息是，纵使我们知道这一届的大选反风无法把国阵捍倒、就算连否决2/3的希望也不大；但我们必须了解到改变是漫长的路途，必须按步就班。至少我们应该从壮大反对党做起。这样的想法我想才是理智而不情绪化的决定。

This breaking news has proven my previous post on the reduced FDI to Malaysia in recent years.
Highly-confidential correspondence confirms that the Penang state government had asked the federal government to offer a RM1 billion project to Motorola in a desperate attempt to stop the American telecommunications giant from pulling out of the state.
If this wasn’t done, the Gerakan-led state government warned Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi that its "catastrophic impact" would be "politically very detrimental" especially in the run-up to the general elections on March 8.
The three-page letter, signed by outgoing Penang chief minister Dr Koh Tsu Koon, was addressed to Abdullah and dated Dec 3 last year. Malaysiakini has seen a copy of the letter.
According to the letter, the government would offer a RM1 billion project to Motorola involving the upgrading of the police force’s radio network in exchange for the multinational staying put in Penang and pump in an additional investment of RM350 million over the next 
five years.
Motorola, which has a manufacturing facility at Penang’s Bayan Lepas Industrial Zone, announced its RM350 million investment in the state on Tuesday. The stunning revelation comes as the opposition intensifies its attacks on the Gerakan state government over its poor performance in reviving the island’s economy.
Koh, who appeared to be on the defensive, has repeatedly denied such claims. The state’s sluggish economy has topped voters’ concern and is likely to be an influential factor when votes are cast on Saturday.
In the letter to Abdullah, Koh - who is also Gerakan acting president - began by stating that he was "very concerned" over disclosures that Motorola was on the verge of announcing that they would be "pulling out their entire operations in Malaysia".
Koh however stressed that Motorola’s pending decision "was not a threat for a bigger and new contract" but a "necessary business strategic response" to the perceived lack of support from the Malaysian government.
The government had earlier decided not to extend Motorola’s contract to supply and expand the existing radio network of the police force and the project - dubbed the Government Integrated Radio Network - had been given to another consortium.
Three ‘dire consequences’
The letter further stated that Abdullah had earlier promised Motorola executives during a meeting in February last year that the company would continue its work on expanding and upgrading the police’s radio network, which has been put in place by the American giant in 1992.
Koh, in the letter, went on at length to impress on Abdullah the importance of Motorola continuing to invest in the state. This included the company setting up its worldwide headquarters in Penang for certain products.
The outgoing chief minister told Abdullah that Motorola "will have no choice" but to move their product headquarters and related operations to another country, most probably China which Koh said had been "wooing Motorola very aggressively".
Motorola needed to make a decision whether to accept the offer to relocate to China by early this year, he added.
Koh also listed out "three dire consequences" should Motorola decide to pull out:
Koh, who has been Penang chief minister for 18 years, appealed to Abdullah and the federal government to reconsider its decision not to award Motorola a new project "in this special case".However, he pressed the case for Motorola's existing contract to be extended.
"From what I gather, the retention and expansion of the existing communication system for the Royal Malaysian Police radio network will cost less than RM1 billion for 10 years, and not more than RM4 billion as was erroneously conveyed," Koh stated.
He added that the cost will cover an upgrading of "an existing communication system already in full operation" over a 10-year period and he will try his best to convince Motorola to further reduce the offer price.
Koh ‘arm-twisting’
Koh also stressed that Motorola has invested an accumulated amount of RM5 billion in Malaysia over the past 35 years and that it has "contributed significantly" to the nation’s economic development.
He cited Motorola’s move to make an additional investment of RM350 million in research and development and manufacturing over the next five years to back his argument.
"I sincerely trust YAB Dato Seri (Abdullah) will assist Penang, and Malaysia, to retain a major investor, avoiding the catastrophic impact of a pull-out and also to allow the police to continue with expanding a tested and trusted radio network," pleaded Koh.
The controversial deal was first hinted at by opposition PKR leaders in Penang on Thursday, but without providing any documentary proof to substantiate their claim.
PKR Penang chief Zahrain Mohamed Hashim - who is contesting the Bayan Baru parliamentary seat and who said he had read the letter - described it as Koh ‘arm-twisting’ Abdullah.
Koh, when quizzed on the matter by reporters on Friday refused to respond apart from saying the question was ‘vague’.
Five days earlier, Motorola had announced its latest deal to invest RM350 million in Penang over the next five years. It is no clear whether the multinational had been awarded a government contract in return for its decision.
Coincidently, the announcement served as a lifeline to Koh who was caught in a whirlpool of opposition claims that Penang had lost its shine due the relocation of many multinational companies to other countries.
Launching the Penang Progress Report 2008 on Wednesday, a visibly relieved Koh had said: "The announcement by Motorola that it would be investing RM350 million more for its operations in Penang yesterday proves that the state is still competitive."
"The DAP is trying to run down everything but refuses to see the progress," Koh was reported to have said.

<<转载与“当今大马”新闻网站>> 这则新闻正好证实我之前所张贴的文章所言，我国的外资
正逐渐的流失。不过没有想到政府为了掩饰外资流失的问题而愿意花更多的钱买‘假外资’，然后欺骗国民外资并没有减少，以粉饰太平！
PJU-Petaling Jaya Utara DAP Parliamentary Candidate TONY PUA
TONY PUA's profile:
I'm a Malaysian former CEO and founder of a public listed IT company. I've graduated from Keble College, Oxford University with a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) with a scholarship from MTC Foundation in 1994. Prior to that, I was fortunate enough to receive Asean and Shaw Foundation scholarships to pursue my 'O' and 'A'-Levels in Raffles Institution and Raffles Junior College.
It was my wish to be able to retire early quite comfortably so that I will be able to devote most, if not all of my expendable time on socio-economic and political affairs. Well, I'm right in the thick of it as I've sold my company and joined the Democratic Action Party (DAP) as the Economic Advisor to the DAP Secretary-General.
I've always had faith that there has been a guardian angel looking after me all these while - my personal well-being, my education, my career. Some will call it "God's will", some "fate" while some others, "destiny". I strongly believe that it is time for me to repay the kindness and fortune showered on me by my family, the society and of course, not forgetting, my guardian angel. :-)
I look forward to the day when I can truly help make our country a better place for all communities, and a country we can all be proud of.

Joke of the day
While walking down the street one day a Malaysian Boleh Minister is
tragically hit by a truck and dies.
.
His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.
.
"Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems
there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts,
you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."
.
"No problem, just let me in," says the man.
.
"Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have
you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose
where to spend eternity."
.
"Really, I have made up my mind. I want to be in heaven," says the Yang
Berhormat.
.
"I'm sorry, but we have our rules," says St. Peter.
.
And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down,
down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of
a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front
of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.
.
Everyone is very happy and dressed in the finest batik there is. They run
to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they
had while getting rich at the expense of the people. They play a friendly
game of golf and then indulge themselves on lobsters, caviar and the most
expensive food there is.
.
Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who has a good
time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that
before he realizes it, it is time to go.
.
Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises.
.
The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St.
Peter is waiting for him.
.
"Now it' s time to visit heaven."
.
So, 24 hours pass with the Yang Berhormat joining a group of contented
souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have
a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St.
Peter returns.
.
"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose
your eternity."
.
The Yang Berhormat reflects for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would
never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think Ai
yam better off in hell."
.
So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to
hell. Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren
land covered with waste and garbage.
.
He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting
it in black bags as more trash falls from above.
.
The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulder.
.
"I don't understand," stammers the Yang Berhormat. "Yesterday I was here
and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar,
drank champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a
wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"
.
The devil looks at him, smiles and says, "Yesterday we were campaigning
just like you during an election...... Today you voted."
.
VOTE WISELY
IN THE COMING ELECTION
