Hollywood, Bollywood, Pinewood and Mallywood

Desperate times demand desperate actions ! In this case "actions" should be read as "spins".
Have you noticed the latest high-lights in main stream media and pro-UMNO blogs the use of race and religion to create hatred and prejudices between the various races ? And certainly a temporary diversion from all their own on-going ills and problems within BN.

We have had a local movie producer,
Datuk Shuhaimi Baba ( fyi: incidently she is also the daughter of Ghafar Baba, who "fell from grace and favour" with that corrupt puppet-master and racist extraordinaire Mahathir and the former dead-wood Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia ) distorting the historical facts of that much used "fear-factor" and of slyly insinuating and reminding of racial clash between the races back in May 1969 and now as Tanda Putra. The review of this movie also subtly skirts on the crucial question of DAP's stalwart Lim Kit Siang "alleged pissing" on the the Malaysian flag in front of the then Chief Minister's house.

Then again the recent world-wide protests by Muslims condemning an idiotic, in poor taste, low budget, third rate, fictitious and unknown producers ( my personal review) of a Hollywood movie Innocence of Muslims, that insults and portrays the prophet Mohamad - peace be upon him - as a womaniser and a fool thus sparking fury and hatred in the hearts of good and ordinary Muslims everywhere including Malaysia, against any American.

UMNO's biggest fear today is losing Putrajaya to the Opposition and with their corrupt-ridden mega-ringgit scandals and the unsolved crimes against the ordinary Malaysian, defeat is inevitable.

So how do they counter that imminent fall ? Easy, just sow the seed of hatred against the non-Malays in the hearts of the ordinary Malays in the Opposition by using religion (as has been done time after time in previous elections ) to break away from the Opposition pact in religious frenzy to join BN. It has always been UMNO's hope that PAS would become an ally and to first break away from PR, due to religious favour over national administrative policies and priorities.

So UMNO again systematically engineers and exploits this stand (as has been done time after time in previous elections ) to pit the religion angle to anger the ordinary Malays in the Opposition. But for UMNO to think that the Malays in the Opposition especially in PAS would fall for that, is the biggest mistake and move so far. UMNO arrogant as always, still thinks the Malays in the Opposition are an ill-informed lot. They will have to probably re-think their strategy again. Sorry UMNO, it's pathetic you still think your manipulative ways will work and you have totally lost the plot.

And with todays "instant" social mediums available at your finger-tips, the ordinary Malays in the Opposition are not biting or buying your more bigoted views anymore. They can still read about all the atrocities you in UMNO ( for 54 long and dammed years !) have done and will readily demand for change no matter what you say or write. As for Sabah and Sarawak, even if UMNO dreamed of holding on their "fixed-deposit", they can forget about it and should wake up and apologise to all East Malaysians.

Happy Malaysia day to all true "Malaysian first" citizens.
I salute you ! Cheers
