Get Cracking Malaysia!!

 Heavens to Betsy, OMG, Goodness Gracious Me!!!!!!

This will not do Malaysia. 

13 January 2021 -  Declaration of  the return of the MCO. 

14 January - Heavens forbid. An Emergency was announced by the Paramount Ruler.  We are seeing the death of democracy and freedom in this country. 👎 Bring out the black flag (and maybe the yellow T-Shirts?), get the Petitions going, 👊 especially if you see yourself as the Saviours (Hallelujah) and guardians  of the Rakyat's Free Spirit (hic! hic!) and especially as you are dedicated to bringing back the Mandate given by the People in 2018.

24 January 2021 - More wailing and wringing of hands, more gloating and self-righteousness.  WOT! it has been 11 days since the MCO and the cases are still skyrocketing , now hovering at 4,000.

This will not do!   We must petition for Parliament to return, challenge the legality of this minority, backdoor Government.  We shall show them how.

So this is our plan.

LET'S HAVE AN ELECTION.  

LET'S ELECT A NEW GOVERNMENT FOR A NEW (SERIES 2) MALAYSIA.

LET'S HAVE ANOTHER SABAH-STYLE ELECTION AND EXTEND IT TO THE REST OF THE NATION - BRING THE 'SABAH VIRUS' TO MALAYA.  (Remember the speech made by the Sponsor of THE VIBES in September 2020 when he said, amongst other paeans of praises to Sabah, "Malaya has an infection and Sabah/Sarawak is the antibiotic we desperately need."!!)🙏




LET'S ANOINT A NEW PRIME MINISTER :     PRIME MINISTER  TUN/TAN SRI/DATUK SERI/DATUK/DATO/ ENCIK/MR  and maybe DATIN ..xyz... THE IX.  

MALAYSIA IS NOT SHORT OF AMBITIOUS WANNABES WHO, LIKE IZNOGOUD, WANT TO BE PRIME MINISTER INSTEAD OF THE PRIME MINISTER.     

(Explanation for the young and deprived: When I started buying Iznogoud Comics in 1975, I never thought how apt it would be to the politics of my Tanah Air wef from 2019.

The Authors, Translators and Publisher.


Here's the rallying cry of The Great Revoluton and Struggle of the Brave People of  Malaysian Malaysia.

There are many,many Iznogouds in Malaysian Malaysia, both covert and overt. Some are blatant, some are by proxy.

And in the end, it will all come true, maybe in a few months' time, perhaps in a year, perhaps never? 

I highly recommend this masterpiece as essential reading for the undergrads and lecturers in Malaysia's Institutes of  Higher Learning.  There's a video version available on YouTube for the hi-tech generation who are not accustomed to reading print (though the printed version is far superior, not tainted by the accent), for our budding young politicians and gung-ho social media personnel.


But not before Covid 19 tears this nation into shreds (especially the Rakyat)   However the ambitious, rich and powerful will survive, a sort of  culling of the weak and inefficient and unenterprising,  indolent, lazy and pursuing a deficient value system.  (Now where have I heard that before - Charles Darwin??  Naahh! Darwin's more intellectual than that.)  


           ======================================

That's enough frivolity AsH.  You are getting high on your Kopi Kampung!  Let's get back to basics, to please the chorus (sometimes raucous) of disapproval about Malaysia's Peformance in controlling Covid 19.  We are not doing enough to curtail Covid 19. But tell me which country has?

As I am fortunate enough to put  my feet up to rest in two cities, Kuala Lumpur (12 years) and Leicester (36 years), let me make a comparison of some salient features of these two countries that I call my home.

Comparison of Covid Cases as on 23 Jan 2021


                                  Population                Cases                   % of total population affected


UK                            67.88 million             3.58 million                                5.28 percent



MALAYSIA                32.7 million            176 K                                          0.538 percent


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comparison of Covid deaths as on 23 Jan 2021


                                          Cases                        Deaths                       % of deaths


UK                                   3.58 million               95,981                         2.68 per cent


MALAYSIA                    176 K                        660                               0.375 percent


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Comparison of Economic Ranking


                                           Ranking                                       GDP


UK                                     6th largest in the world                $2.638 Trillion


MALAYSIA                      39th in the world                          $336 billion 


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*  1 Billion  =  1000 Million 

*   1 Trillion  =  1000 Billon


C'MON MALAYSIA, THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU RENEWED THE MCO AND IMPOSED THE EMERGENCY.  YOU ARE TRYING OUR PATIENCE!!!!  😡😡


Oh yes, must not forget this contribution by a Sabah researcher Dr Audrey Teh Yi Hui working in London who lamented " I'm from Malaysia where we don't have state health care and I've seen families bankrupted by medical bills."

Finally ; .........

.......  yesterday our dear friend in Leicester sent us this picture of their garden.

Jackie's and Julia's garden, Leicester 25 Jan 2021.

Jackie wrote : Yes, hope you're both ok, apart from homesick?  The Covid situation here is dire, Leicester hospitals struggling, and on the local radio they were saying they need more mortuary space.


Jackie is a retired SRN (State Registered Nurse) and Julia is still serving in Leicester's NHS.


To all the Frontliners in Leicester and Malaysia, keep up the splendid work.  We are rooting for you.
