The Hijaukan Putrajaya Garbage In Kedah...And I Really Mean, Garbage

Another day has passed, and much to the delight of Alor Setar residents, the troublesome event known as Hijaukan Putrajaya is over. With today being a holiday, azizan and pas Kedah can be thankful that the event is not held today, or they might just see a revolt bigger than bersih can ever hold and even their terrorists who used to be known as Unit Amal might just leave their balls behind.


We understand that pas is currently patting themselves in the back as they see it as a success. The pas Kedah, on the other hand, has a very daunting mystery to solve, on the absence of Kedahans during the events.But I don't think the Kedah pas leaders really care: azizan is leaving, and the MB wannabes like mahfuz, amiruddin and phahrolrazi are too busy lobbying with the central leaders.

A success to pas? What about for the residents of Alor Setar? There were so much anger created by the event, especially from people who lives within the radius of the stadium. As can be seen in the map, the area marked by the yellow/orange box/circle fared the worst, with vehicles coming from all around Malaysia blocking their entrances. There were many who were blocked from going for their Friday prayers, and there was also a family who were blocked from going off for their holiday. The unit amal twits who were directing traffic didn't even bother to let the drivers know that they were blocking the neighborhood from doing their daily affairs. I was also informed that things almost got ugly in Jalan Tengku Abdul Halim when a participant became angry when a house-owner requested that he park his car somewhere else and not block his house entrance. Luckily the driver moved away when the neighbors came out. Even the unit amal tried to defend the dtiver in blocking the entrance. Well, what do you expect when terrorists control the roads?

There were some residents who questioned the unit amal chaps who seem to be directing people to park directly in front of their gates. I must say that the majority of the people in this area are pensioners who spends their time with their family and grandchildren and doing more ibadah, and the pas supporters might just be too stupid to think about other people...but then again, if they do, they will actually be preaching on Islam, isn't it? The areas in the blue box were affected, although not too bad compared to the other. Most people in Alor Setar had to divert to a longer route in going to places like banks, mosques, kenduris and even hypermarkets. Many were irritated, but there's nothing much they can do because it is their state government who planned it so badly.

Still on the matter of Kedahans being absence from the event, the out-of-state-pas supporters left Kedahans a palpable gift. I took these pictures aroound 4.30pm, and despite the E-Idaman workers cleaning the area since morning, you can still see the gifts lying around, all around the stadium. Curiously, there were pages upon pages of Harakahkahkah lying scattered on the ground. I remember those days when pas used to treat the tabloid as part of their holy of the holies. I guess now pas treats harakah as what we have always known: garbage. We know that E-Idaman has always been slow to pick up garbage from our houses, looks like now we have to wait some more as the litter around the stadium still needs to be cleared.

Wait, with all those crap left by pas (physically, not the program), shall we tell anwar to send his jewish-sponsored bersih team and clean it up? Hey, at least they'll be doing an actual Bersih job compared tothe acts of terrorism they did in KL. It's not that I really want to make this wordplay but, what's the point of "greening" Putrajaya when leave so much pollution, both socially and physically in Kedah?

Kedahans generally are very reasonable and literally quite liberal, as one old man I met at Jalan Mahkota said, "Nak buat apa pon, kalau tak kacau oghang takpa la, ni sampai pi masjid, nak pi kendughi, nak pi tengok anak cucu pon tak boleh, bangsa agama apa depa ni?" ("We don't care what you want to do, as long as it does not disturn people, but barring people from going to the mosque, kenduris and visiting our children and grandchildren, what sort of religion do these people profess?). I overheard One furious old Chinese man was venting his anger at the coffeeshop: he lives off Jalan Stadium on the road that goes to Jabatan Pendidikan Kedah, and he was blocked as well. He was only able to go out after 10:00p.m., and he was heard saying this: "Itu stadium baru kat Suka Menanti ada, lagi banyak tempat, itu kompleks Gunung Keriang ada, sana itu Dewan Wawasan (Jitra) pun ada, lagi mau buat ini tempat. Bagi semua orang susah. Banyak bodo punya orang" (You have the new stadium at Suka Menanti, with bigger area, you have the complex in Gunung Keriang, there's Dewan Wawasan (Jitra) over there, but they still want to do it here. Making people's life difficult. Idiots."

I do understand the anger, but try to look at it from pas' perspective: with Kedah slipping out from their grasp. with problems from logging, ignored infrastructure to the Waqf land issue, pas needed a show of force, and it was really a show manufactured to fool people. I guess pas tried to show that they are strong in Kedah, but in the end, pas was angered by the absence of Kedahans and in return, Kedahans, especially Alor Setar residents, were angered by pas' disregard to Kedahans' daily affairs and religious obligations. Kedahans has now really seen what pas has always been: un-Islamic and self-centered.

Three Wise Men And The Hijaukan Putrajaya Crap

There were a lot of grumblings and complaints today by so many. The traffic mayhem on all roads leading to the stadium was horrendous. The weekend schedules were heavily affected: trips to kenduris, family outings, shopping trips and many more faced delays and interruptions. There was even a complaint that the severe jams caused a groom to arrive almost 2 hours after the scheduled time of the kenduri. What to do? All of this is caused by pas' one-eyed design to capture Putrajaya with their latest scheme known as Himpunan Hijaukan Putrajaya.

Yes, yes, I understand the irony. They have turned the water-catchment area from green to barren brown with their logging activities, now they want to "green" Putrajaya. Of course, we haven't touched on the greens that were involved in their party campaign that led to the victory to the erdogans yet. Perhaps they are trying to cover up the fact that they have so many members who turn up for their greens by Felda despite trying to sabotage it. Of course, it could also be that they have been green with envy with the multi-success of Malaysia in boosting the economy.

By now, everybody has already known the fact that Kedah was chosen as the venue as pas has felt that Kedah is losing from their grip fast after all the debacle the pas-led-state government did to the state.

It's hard for me to accept pas "greening" Putrajaya. A group of people who places politics above religion, uses religion to split the ummah, supports a man who, in his last for power, supports and is supported by the enemies of Islam and whose main agenda in using Islam is just to win votes while the Muslims and Malays fight with each other.

If the venue is in Kedah, why are there so few Kedahans? Did pas snub Kedahans from going to the event? Or did they instruct their members from other states to attend because they already know that Kedahans prefer not to go? I saw about 18 buses with pas banners in front of the stadium and Wisma Negeri, about 7 in front of Wisma Darulaman and 5 more driving around, and none of them are from Kedah. Most cars at the stadium are from Kelantan, some from Pahang, Selangor and Johor. I guess Kedahans, if there are any, park somewhere else. It's a good thing to know that the traders around there are locals. Finally, something to boost economy and tourism.

Let's hope they hang around tomorrow for shopping at Pekan Rabu.

Perhaps pas should learn more about Kedah and its people. Friday is a weekend, they love to stay at home. During school holidays they love to travel, and those who don't, usually spend their time going to kenduris after Friday prayers. They also hate traffic jams on Fridays because it interrupts a lot of their daily schedule. Because of the havoc created by the outsiders, most Alor Setar residents refrained from going out today.

Don't get me wrong, residents of Alor Setar do go about for activities at the stadium, usually taking their family for tea at the park in from of the stadium, or just simply relaxing there. The football season, depending on how well Kedah team did, will see a huge turnout at the stadiums, and these are really locals. The Hari Penyayang by Yayasan Sultanah Bahiyah sees huge turnouts every year. But pas' Hijau Putrajaya is really different: it has nothing to do with Kedah. It was just a performance of an illusion, to show as if Kedahans are behind pas. Well, we know anwar is behind pas too, but that might just worry them.

We can understand pas' worry nationally: The Imam of Masjidil Haram Sheikh Dr Sulaiman Saloomi has stated clearly that pas is nothing more than another political party, garnering a highly suspect method of using religion to win votes while ensuring the ummah remains fighting amongst another. This reflects Sheikh Imran Hosein who stated in the same vein. Pas' methods placed their party as pariahs by their own design. Having the Stadium Darulaman filled with put-of-state fanatics, guarded by terrorists (they used to be known as Unit Amal) is not really what we can term as "voter-friendly."

Early this morning I had a visit by three wise young men dressed in green t-shirts with the Hijau Putrajaya design. They graciously invited me (and the other irritated neighbors) to the event with a tinge of "if you don't go, you are not Muslim" remark. I just told them that, as my responsibility in Islam, I cannot support Jews, which left them stirred. But a further few minutes being lambasted about Islam, anwar ibrahim, the one-eyed's design in what is happening to the Muslim countries seem to left them shaken, chuffed and dumb-founded. They could at least send people with intelligence to go and invite people instead of these boys. I could have sworn I saw those boys popping panadol at the Indian grocery shop as I was driving to the mosque for Friday prayers.

To pas, the game is up. Those who think know that pas has nothing to do with Islam. It is just a party desperate for power, and trying to blind the eyes of Kedahans. The more they follow anwar, bit by bit, feet by feet, mile by mile, the more they become a pawn in the one-eyed's game. To those three twits who came this morning...well, I don't think they read this blog anyway. Based on their intelligence, they don't fit reading Kedah La Nie either. Perhaps they should read the much inferior and less paid Kedah La.

Cloudy And Rain For Pas Kedah

For pas, it has been a few years of discontent in their handling...or some might say, mishandling Kedah. The Kedah exco, led by the iron-fisted azizan alnost went into shambles when phahrolrazi and his cohorts refused to accept the re-appointment of his ecxo position, the destructive state-approved logging activities, the questionable approval on the building of a shopping centre on waqf land, the rotting infrastructure, garbage problems, drainage issues and many more. Many Kedahans have even stated that, with this Pas Kedah state government, the future state governments can't go any much lower.

The scenario among pas leadewrs in Kedah has been tense for the past few months. Everybody in pas suddenly wants to become a candidate in the next general election. Tiffs and quarrels have began taking places. There were even talks among pas members, a few months ago, on how a few of their members have jumped ship to pkr, looking for opportunities to be candidates. There's also one chap, an Ansara member who also is an insurance salesman who is a hardcore pas member, formally revoked his pas membership to be a pkr member, all of this because he wants to be the next candidate to go against Dato Bashah, the Kedah UMNO Liaison Chairman. I guess desperation calls for desperate moves.

The friction among factions in pas is beginning to rear its ugly mug. With azizan ready to drop out and taulan rasul not going for another term, the race for the MB's seat heats up between Phahrolrazi, Amiruddin, Azizan's choice and the odious Mahfuz. We have not seen any demands or calls for any of them, but there are demands for Mahfuz NOT to take his shoes off and put his smelly socks on the adjacent seat at the airport, in Firefly and Air Asia. Even mat sabu has been seen regularly at the Kepala Batas airport and he is seeking for a place to contest in Kedah. I wonder why he is never keen in contesting in Penang, I am sure his former "associates" might just vote for him lovingly.

Pas Kedah has seen the writing om the wall...literally. With grafitti marks of ABAI and slogans of anti-anwar, even the anwar-influenced faction of pas try their best not to mention pkr or anwar's name. After all, they do know that azizan is also a strong supporter of ABAI and TIBAI. We would suggest that the anwar-influenced-pas faction to join the new movement known as Cintai Insan Bernama Anwar Ibrahim. Of course, this is a blog open for all, so I am not going to announce its acronym here.

To add misery to their cause, pas' celebrated Bersih 3.0 catapulted a major backlash for them and the pakatan clowns. The anger directed by the actual peaceful bersih protesters, the fiery reactions from traders and entrepreneurs and the thunderous protests by the majority of Malaysians were loud enough to send pas reeling on their knees. They cannot deny their existence during the paid demonstration as pas played crucial parts in there as well. Their so-called unit amal pas were directed to act like terrorists to attack the police to provoke any sort of what can filmed as police brutality. Unit amal pas can be declared as terrorists-for-hire...well, at least they can do something.

Adding salt to the wound, the Masjidil Haram Sheikh Dr Sulaiman Saloomihas condemned

pas' use of religion to win votes that split the ummah assunder. (Click here for the full article http://www.nst.com.my/opinion/columnist/pas-politics-of-heaven-and-hell-1.88770) To many pas leaders, they'll be thinking of how could he say something like that as that practice has been the bread and butter of pas. They have even managed to convince people of heaven if they vote for pas. But I always believe that the statement by   will have no effect on pas because, as we all know, pas is never Islam and Sheikh Dr Sulaiman is not a member of pas. Of course, they'll be attackinh him on wahabbi issues...strangely, when they pray at Masjidil Haram, they do follow the grand Imam there, regardless of mazhab or movement.

Where will Kedahans go from here? They are sick and tired of dramas and performances of pakatan in Kedah. The young and old have stated over and over again that Kedah needs a new blood. For years, there have been talks of pulling Mukhriz Mahathir, the Timbalan Menteri Perdagangan Antarabangsa, back to Kedah. This is, in one way, bizarre as Mukhriz is only in his first term as a Member of Parliament. However, it seems that Kedahans are mesmerized by his humble and low profile approach which won him hearts of many. I remember a few years back, how a group of free bloggers approaching Mukhriz and in a way, pleaded for him to play a role in Kedah politics. Even at that time, one can see the demand for a young blood to steer Kedah.

Mukhriz has stated that he is ready for any post but polls come first. He is serious and really committed. We have seen him going around in Kedah almost every weekend. While pas leaders and spinmasters try to dig up any dirt on Mukhriz, pas members, on the other hand, keep inviting Mukhriz to their kenduris, which he obliges without miss.

Pas Kedah's worry is understanhdable. Who among them can fix the present problems created by themselves? As for the present MB, he is not the type who wants to hear advice and goes amok when his decisions are questioned by his own exco members. Phahrolrazi is now seen as Brutus, who stands loyal in front of azizan but with his supporters ready to "dig azizan's grave" at his back. Amiruddin, outside of his constituent and among other factions, has been viewed as an usurper. Mahfuz...well, can somebody tell him to buy new socks at places other than the RM1.99 Store...And with azizan soon going to be out of the way, mat sabu will be contesting somewhere...or anywhere than he can bamboozle himself through. I hope people in that area will keep their wives locked at home.

One can almost smell the desperation in pas Kedah. Pas Kedah will be holding an event called Ijtimak Jentera Pilihanraya Pas on the 1st of June 2012. As usual, Stadium Darulaman is already filled by pas members, and again, most of them spoke with an east coast slang. Why do pas keep importing people for their events, and it seems that are importing more for this event. Well, I'm hoping that this time it will be better than the doomed pakatan konvensyen earlier this year. No, it's nothing political, it's just that the last convention not only failed, the imported supporters didn't even spend much at famous Alor Setar eateries. This time, we hope they could at least spend more at Pekan Rabu, or at least Nasi Lemak Haji Ali.Yes, that's true, I don't care about the ijtimak event.

What will the war-cry be for pas? It has been clear that pas has nothing to do with Islam. Kedahans have seen that state progress were never initiated by the state government. Places which were announced as development such as KUIN in Kuala Ketil remains barren. Logging has come to such a point that several rain-catchment areas can be seen stripped bare. Still on logging, I wonder how much the state made from logging and how come Kedah is still considered broke? There are times even pas members are amazed on how azizan can announce the non-existent progress and development with such a straight face. Of course, rumours that he sucks on a lime or lemon beforehand is still unfounded.

Hypothetically, if Mukhriz becomes the MB of Kedah, it will be a major task to repair the damages that have been inflicted by the present state government. How long it will take is another matter. Kedah is expecting unpredictable weather these next 1 or 2 months, but for pas Kedah, they might just find more rain coming their way.
