HINDRAF Challenges BN Backbenchers Over Kugan's Murder


Contributed by MALAYSIA HINDU VOICE
Press Statement – BN backbenchers' show your patriotism to the people.
HINDRAF challenges the non-Indian BN led backbenchers' to show their patriotism towards the people they represent in moving an urgent motion in Parliament to debate the murder of a suspect in Police custody and the blatant attempt to cover up the saga by the top brass of the Royal Police Force.
The whole episode is a national issue and not a racial one. It is pointless the Indian Deputy Minister (S.K.Devamany) urging the people not to turn this episode into a racial issue without the active participation of non- Indian Parliamentarians in coming openly to voice out against injustices irrespective of which race is affected. There is no doubt there will be many fair and level minded non Indian BN backbenchers' who can observe in Kugan's case, that there is clear abuse of Article 5 & Article 8 of the Federal constitution accorded to every citizen of Malaysia irrespective of race, religion, color and following.
A backbencher's allegiance is for the people he/she represents in Malaysia, and here we have substandard implementation of policies and rule of law that are used to shackle the people, yet the UMNO led warlords and its Royal Police Force can continue with their coercive authority against the society's will.
The bullying tactic of the UMNO warlords and its Royal Police Force seems endless against the Malaysian public's plight with their constant disregard of public outcry as they continue to see themselves as above the law of the country with their selective persecution, prosecution and propaganda. It is about time, the non Indian BN backbenchers' pull up their socks as Kugan's case involves a larger cause for the society rather than an Indian issue as it cuts across the basic fundamental right entrenched in our Federal Constitution for each and every Malaysian citizen.
HINDRAF urges the BN backbenchers to initiate an Emergency Motion at the next
Parliamentary session to question the flawed administration of law and justice that is prevailing in this country and call for the immediate implementation of the recommendations of the Royal Commission on Police Force.
Any effort without fear or favor by non Indian BN backbenchers' would at least restore some faith in the flagging trust of the public in Barisan Nasional or BN backbenchers' would rather live in a denial mode in slavery of corruption, nepotism and cronyism alike the UMNO warlords who tramples over every basic human right afforded to each and everyone of us.
Thank you.

REPOST: BN/UMNO'S SECRET DEALINGS WITH ISRAEL.


Malaysia is facing one of her stiffest challenges in her 52 year history. There seem to be no end in the racism and religious bigotry in this country. When talking about racism and religious bigotry, Malaysians have no hesitation to point their fingers at the West especially the United States, which strangely enough have elected an African American as her President.

Back home in Malaysia, we have people saying that the Prime Minister or the Menteri Besar has to be of a certain race and religion. The Scribe does not want to dabble into the issue of Vernacular, National or religious schools. However, there are folks out there who have been to Vernacular (Chinese and Tamil medium schools) as well as Islamic religious schools who would vouch with God Almighty as their witness that they were bombarded with religious and racist hatred against those who were not of the same race or religion with them by their teachers.

Things get even worse when Muslim students of full Government residential schools are brainwashed to hate all thing western, Jewish and worst of all are told to hate and distrust their brother and sister Malaysians who are non Muslims and non Malays. The Scribe has credible information that Government schools are using their Ustaz's and Ustazah's to tell our kids that the Holy Quran says that Allah swt made Jews as pigs and monkeys. So it is no surprise that young Muslims in this country are radicalized right under our noses with our tax money.


The whole Gaza episode is nothing but an exercise by the Evil BN/Umno regime to shore up support for itself at a time when its own future is bleak. Some readers have sent emails to The Scribe complaining that it makes them sick to see DPM Najib Razak's wife, Rosmah (adorned with pearls around her neck) pathetically appealing for funds for the Palestinians. Another email complained that Maybank has unethically put on the screens of ATM's the account number of the Gaza Fund as soon as a customer keys in their account details.

Let's stop being hypocrites and start looking at those suffering right here in Malaysia. What about the Rohingya Muslims of Myanmar. Why no action against the genocide currently underway in Myanmar against the Rohingya'? What about the genocide going on in Sri Lanka against the Tamils? Where is Dr. Jemilah and Mercy Malaysia? Yeah, people would say that Mercy Malaysia were there in the aftermath of Typhoon Nargis but so were other international aid agencies. Where is Mercy Malaysia and the international aid agencies such as UNHWR today? Why is Umno Youth, PEWARIS and PPIM keeping mum? Why no demonstration in front of the Myanmar Embassy in KL?


The truth of the matter is Malaysia and her leaders have had and continue to have secret dealings with Israel. WHAT A BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES!!! For this reason, The Scribe has decided to repost the Article 'BN/UMNO'S SECRET DEALINGS WITH ISRAEL'.

Malaysia: Anti-Semitism without Jews malaysiakini- quoted Ahmad Ismail as saying, "I urge the Chinese not to become like the Jewish in America, where it is not enough that they control the economy, but they also want to dominate politics,".


Penang Umno leader Ahmad Ismail, the man at the centre of the ‘racial slur' controversy, warned Chinese Malaysians not to mimic American Jews who not only seek to control the country's economy but also its political power. This anti-Semitic statement came out from the vile mouth of Ahmad Ismail even though there are no Jews in Malaysia. Abe Foxman, head of the Anti-Defamation League, an American Jewish advocacy group, called the remarks by Ahmad Ismail an example of "classic anti-Semitism.

It has become a convenient tool of rulers and politicians in the Muslim world to get their masses all fired up by uttering the 'J' (Jewish) and 'I' (Israel) word as a convenient means to cover up their own misdeeds such as robbing their own people. The only difference here in Malaysia is that Umno politicians adds the 'C' (Chinese) to spice things up for their amok ready followers. It is kind of strange that even when we don't have Jews in Malaysia, we still hear anti-Semitic statements coming out from especially Umno politicians. However, this Scribe feels that the Father of Anti-Semitism in Malaysia must be Mahathir Mohamed. he is after all, Ahmad Ismail's Sifu.


The funny thing here is that despite all the anti-Semitic remarks coming out from the leaders of the BN/Umno regime, this very regime has secretly been dealing with the Israelis as this following Article by the JERUSALEM CENTER FOR PUBLIC AFFAIRS would reveal.

An Anti-Semitic Prime Minister
Since its establishment (initially as Malaya) in 1957, Malaysia has rejected formal diplomatic relations with Israel and has kept contacts on a low flame at best. Reasons include Malaysia's desire to cultivate ties with the Arab countries and the power of domestic Islamic trends. Malaysian animus toward Israel grew during the 1960s, although a certain level of commercial activity between the two countries was tolerated. In 1981 the openly anti-Semitic Mahathir bin Muhamad was elected Malaysia's prime minister, and he continued his public condemnations of Israel and Jews while strengthening Malaysia's support for the PLO. Although during the Oslo era he somewhat moderated his statements, he ended his tenure in October 2003 with an anti-Semitic diatribe at a meeting of the Organization of the Islamic Conference. Since then Malaysia has remained cool toward Israel, claiming that relations depend on a solution of the Palestinian problem.


During Mahathir's years as prime minister he made extreme anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic statements, some of which achieved wide resonance. Mahathir nurtured anti-Semitism in a Malaysia that was without Jews. On 27 January 1981, in a speech in Saudi Arabia, he urged regaining the Palestinian lands by force since Israel was not invincible. He also, as will be discussed, vilified Israel at major venues.

In June 1983, Mahathir issued a statement attacking Israel for its incursion into Lebanon and calling it "the most immoral country in the world." In October 1983, at the OIC's Sixth Conference on Palestine held in New York, Malaysia expressed concern about Israel's renewed activities in Africa and called for their immediate halt. Malaysia opposed establishing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and supported the resolution at the Jerusalem Conference of the OIC (New York, April 1984) to sever ties with any country that moved its ambassador to Jerusalem.Malaysia supported the PLO more strongly than did any other Southeast Asian country. In 1969, Malaysia was the first Asian country to permit Fatah to open an office in its capital, which in 1974 became a PLO office. In August 1982, under Mahathir, this office was given full diplomatic recognition. Malaysia's foreign minister claimed that Israel should recognize the PLO before demanding that it recognize Israel. In May 1983, Malaysia hosted a conference on the Palestine question with UN funding and expressed anti-Israeli propaganda in its media. Yasser Arafat, paying an official visit to Malaysia in July 1984, was received by the king and spoke to a large audience.


In August 1984, a visit to Kuala Lumpur by the New York Philharmonic was canceled because of the Malaysian information minister's demand that a work by the Swiss Jewish composer Ernst Bloch be removed from the program. The minister's statement on the matter included anti-Semitic expressions.

From 1983 onward, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion was published and disseminated in Malaysia. On 12 August 1983, Mahathir asserted in a speech to the Malaysian Press Club that Jews and Zionists controlled the international media. He repeated this charge four days later and added that the journalists working for foreign newspapers under Jewish control were trying to destabilize Malaysia through distorted reports. He called the Wall Street Journal a Jewish tool.In a speech in September 1986 at the summit of the Nonaligned Nations in Zimbabwe's capital, Harare, Mahathir complained that the Jews' exile two thousand years ago and their persecution under the Nazis had not taught them anything. On the contrary, these persecutions had turned them into the very monsters they vilified in their own propaganda; they had become the gifted students of Goebbels.


In another speech to the Malaysian parliament on 10 October 1986, Mahathir referred to attempts by Zionists to use Malaysian individuals and groups to damage the country's economy. He also blamed the "Zionist press" in Western countries for the low level of American investment in Malaysia. He often attacked the New York Times and the Asian Wall Street Journal as Zionist publications.

Israeli president Chaim Herzog's visit to Singapore in November 1986 evoked harsh Malaysian reactions including bitter condemnations of Israel and Zionism. There were calls to cut off Singapore's water supply and burn its flag.


Mahathir and Malaysian diplomatic representatives made constant belligerent speeches about Israel, often condemning it for causing suffering to the Palestinians. In 1992, Malaysia denied entry to a delegate from Israel's El Al airlines for the International Flight Conference in Kuala Lumpur. In December that year, it denied entry to an Israeli football player on the Liverpool team, and the team canceled its visit to Malaysia.

In March 1994, Mahathir prohibited the screening of Steven Spielberg's movie Schindler's List on the ground that it was an anti-German propaganda film aimed at winning support for Jews and contained too much violence. When this evoked protests in the United States and Australia, the Malaysia cabinet canceled the prohibition against the film but required that seven scenes with violence or sex be cut. Spielberg, however, insisted that the film be shown in its entirety or not at all. In the end, it was decided to remove all his films from Malaysia.


Early in 1992, Israel began normalizing its relations with China, India, and other Asian countries. This drew its Foreign Ministry's attention to the Muslim countries in Asia. The view regarding Malaysia was that Mahathir was an anti-Semite and there was no chance of changing his country's hostile policy so long as he was prime minister.

The Oslo Era
The signing of the Israeli-PLO Declaration of Principles on 20 August 1993 brought Mahathir to lower his tone. Malaysia's deputy foreign minister announced in parliament that Malaysia welcomed the Israeli-PLO agreement. Mahathir, on a different occasion, said Malaysia would consider diplomatic relations with Israel, but first Israel had to do more to bring peace to the Middle East. He expressed hope that Israelis and Palestinians could now live in peace and that all Palestinian land would be returned, and pointed out that the future status of Jerusalem remained unresolved.


The deputy minister of international trade and industry said Malaysia aimed to penetrate the Israeli market as soon as the two countries set up diplomatic relations; meanwhile, the trade and economic sanctions against Israel would continue. The foreign minister said Malaysia would pledge $5 million to help the Palestinians govern Gaza and Jericho, would help them develop the infrastructure in areas evacuated by Israel, and would provide technical assistance in the administrative and police domains. The PLO ambassador to Malaysia claimed it was the first country to offer assistance to the PLO after the signing of the agreement with Israel.On 28 December 1993, however, Mahathir announced at a press conference that Malaysia was not yet ready to establish diplomatic relations with Israel. By then several Gulf states had done so, but Malaysia's stance was that Israel still had much to do. For example, Israel had not announced its acceptance of a Palestinian state or that it would cease "terrorist activities" even as the Palestinians were asked to end their own terror tactics.

On 14 July 1994, the brother of the king of Malaysia, Tunku Abdallah bin Tunku abd Al-Rahman, paid a private visit to Israel. He was the chairman of a consortium of commercial and investment companies. Among others, Tunku Abdallah met with Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres. When the visit was made known in Malaysia, Mahathir denied that the government had arranged it or that Tunku Abdallah was on a diplomatic mission. He said he did not know about the trip and believed it was strictly for business.


On returning to Kuala Lumpur on 16 July, Tunku Abdallah said his visit was entirely private and aimed at checking the feasibility of opening commercial relations in tourism and technology, and this was in the framework of his trip to Europe. He claimed Israel had exploited his visit for political advantage since he was the king's brother, and that his meetings with Rabin and Peres were of a social nature only. He apologized to all those who were offended by the visit.

Nevertheless, the justice minister (Syed Hamid Albar) threatened that the police would investigate Tunku Abdallah and confiscate his passport for breaking the law by visiting Israel.While the Malaysia government and media were occupied with Tunku Abdallah's visit, Mahathir announced that Rabin had written to him to suggest establishing diplomatic relations in light of the improved Israeli-PLO ties. Mahathir had replied, he said, that Malaysia opposed such relations until Israel and the PLO resolved all the remaining issues between them. He told the press, moreover, that he was not convinced of Israel's sincerity in its peace talks with the PLO, since "Israel continues to humiliate the Palestinians and has no intention of returning Jerusalem to them." Although Rabin believed this was the right time to advance relations with the Asian Muslim countries, his overture to Mahathir was merely tentative.


Meanwhile, Malaysia had no intention to revoke its trade embargo with Israel. In a visit to Jordan on 9 October 1994, Mahathir explained at a press conference that Malaysia would decide whether to recognize Israel only after it signed peace treaties with all the Arab countries and fulfilled all the Arab demands including with respect to Jerusalem.

At that time there were indications that Malaysia had changed its approach to Israel in some areas relating to economics. During 1994, a small number of Israelis were allowed to enter Malaysia to attend international conferences on various topics. Specifically, in December that year Malaysia granted entry permits to eight Israelis who came to participate in a conference on fertilizers.


On 24 October that year, Malaysia permitted Malaysian Muslims to make pilgrimages to Jerusalem but not to visit other places in Israel. The pilgrims could enter Israel only through Jordan and stay no longer than two weeks. In announcing this, the deputy foreign minister said there was no change in Malaysia's policy toward Israel despite its attempts to make peace with Arab countries and the PLO.

When this was made public, Christian groups in Malaysia asked for a similar arrangement. The foreign minister approved their request on 10 November. Shortly thereafter, the president of Malaysia's travel-agent association met with the commerce and tourism attachés at the Israeli embassy in Singapore to work out details for Malaysian tourism to Jerusalem. During 1-5 January 1995, a delegation of Malaysian travel agents visited Israel. In that year, a Malaysian delegation took part in an economic conference in Casablanca in which Israel also participated, and in a continuation of the conference in Amman, and El Al and the Malaysian national airline signed an air-traffic agreement.


Furthermore, in late May 1995 a Malaysian television crew visited Israel. On 18 June, the program it filmed there was broadcast on Malaysian television. It included an interview with, among others, the then Jerusalem mayor Ehud Olmert. Israeli songs were heard in the background.

The picture was more complex regarding commercial relations. On 17 September 1994, Malaysian customs authorities impounded a shipment of 24,000 tons of fertilizer on the suspicion that it originated in Israel, from which imports were illegal. However, Malaysia began to suspect that there was a counter boycott on selling Malaysian products by Jewish businessmen in various countries. In mid-January 1996, Malaysia's minister of international trade and industry announced that his ministry was exploring the possibility of gradually instituting commercial relations with Israel. He added, however, that such trade would have no political significance. "It will be like with Taiwan. We do not have diplomatic relations with her but there are numerous commercial relations."


In a visit to New Delhi in January 1996, Israel's then finance minister Avraham Shochat said he looked forward to diplomatic relations with Malaysia and Indonesia in the near future. The director-general of Malaysia's Foreign Ministry responded by saying Malaysia was in no hurry to have diplomatic ties with Israel, repeating what Mahathir had said a few days earlier.An Ongoing


Coolness
Revealing misplaced enthusiasm, the director-general of Israel's Ministry of Industry and Trade, Yosi Snir, requested clarification from Malaysia on the issue of permitting economic relations with Israel. Only upon receiving a response, he explained, would his ministry remove Malaysia from the list of countries from which imports were forbidden. In addition, the spokesperson for the Israel embassy in Singapore said Israel looked forward to Malaysia taking steps to normalize commercial and diplomatic relations with Israel.


Apparently, Malaysia did not respond to the Israeli feelers. In mid-February 1996, however, a Malaysian businessman visited Israel to discuss cooperation between Israeli and Malaysian companies. In late March a delegation of Malaysian businessmen came to Israel and held talks with heads of chambers of commerce. Although Malaysia's official boycott of Israeli products still stood, the head of the Malaysian delegation said he had been authorized by the minister of industry and trade. In early May the Israeli Port Authority sponsored an international conference, and a sixteen-member Malaysian delegation attended with government approval.

These developments, along with Malaysia's change of policy in granting entry permits to Israelis, created an expectation that Malaysia was about to open an economic interest office in Tel Aviv.26 In June 1996, the parliamentary secretary of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry announced in parliament that his ministry was considering sending an official commercial mission to Israel. The Malaysian foreign minister added that future commercial relations with Israel depended on the efforts of the new Israeli government, headed by Benjamin Netanyahu, to achieve peace. In October 1996, the Malaysian bank Public Bank Bhd. established direct relations with Israel's Bank Hapoalim to enable commercial firms in both countries to make direct financial transactions. Malaysia's deputy finance minister announced that Israeli businessmen would be permitted to invest in Malaysia.


In light of these developments, the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) in New York decided to urge Malaysian leaders to speed up establishing diplomatic relations with Israel. Several meetings were held with Malaysian representatives to the United Nations and with Malaysia's deputy prime minister, but these did not lead to any positive outcomes.

In 1997, Malaysia took two small steps in the area of youth and sports. During 3-16 March, an Israeli youth delegation made up of fourteen high school students of both sexes visited Malaysia. It was said that Mahathir himself was behind the initiative. The students visited two schools and met with the education minister and other senior government officials. This visit did not arouse public interest.

Yet when an Israeli cricket team arrived a few days later to take part in an international tournament, demonstrations by Muslims and students erupted in which Israeli flags were burned. To achieve calm, the foreign minister quickly declared in parliament that Malaysia had no intention to establish diplomatic relations with Israel "until Tel Aviv honors its obligations according to the peace treaty it signed with the Palestinians."


Mahathir had made the same point at a press conference in New York late in September 1996. Moreover, in reaction to the violence that had erupted over Israel's opening of a tunnel at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, he accused the new Netanyahu government of trying to retreat from the agreements signed by the Rabin government. Mahathir said the opening of the tunnel was a provocation and an assault on the sanctity of the Al-Aksa Mosque. Speaking at the UN General Assembly at that time, Malaysia's foreign minister said Israel's attempt to make Jerusalem its capital was illegal, and that Malaysia supported the Palestinians' aspirations for self-determination in their own state.

Protesting Mahathir
In July 1997, when Malaysia faced a severe economic crisis, Mahathir was convinced it was caused by the Jewish financier George Soros. It seems Soros's dealing in Malaysian currency harmed the country's economy, and the reports in Malaysian newspapers were full of anti-Semitic innuendos. Mahathir tried to explain this: "We are not anti-Semites. The Arabs are also Semites. Just as people make a connection between Islam, Muslims and terrorism, there are people in this country who are inclined to connect [dealing in foreign currency] with Jews. . . . I think that most Jews are innocent, but the impression is that the Jews have a lot of money. They know how to manipulate money. . . . "


In October 1997 when the crisis worsened, Mahathir continued his anti-Semitic rhetoric. He referred in a speech to the "international Jewish conspiracy" and to his government's fears that the Jews planned to destroy Malaysia's and other Muslim countries' economies.American Jewish organizations reacted. The JCRC sent a letter of protest on Mahathir's comments to Malaysia's UN representatives. Jewish leaders in New York met with Malaysian diplomats and with the Malaysian deputy prime minister and finance minister, Anwar Ibrahim, who was visiting the city. The Malaysians tried to explain that Mahathir was prone to outbursts and did not heed advice from anyone, but was not an anti-Semite. Anwar Ibrahim, however, said Mahathir sincerely believed in the "international Jewish plot." Shortly thereafter Mahathir fired Anwar Ibrahim, who was tried for corruption and sexual offenses and given a long sentence.The Jewish leaders demanded that Malaysia establish full diplomatic relations with Israel. The Malaysian UN ambassador and Anwar Ibrahim explained that Malaysia supported Palestinian rights and censured the Netanyahu government. The time was not right to continue working to improve relations, and Malaysia was not ready for normalization.

Additional Jewish organizations condemned Mahathir as an anti-Semite, as did the U.S. State Department. The World Jewish Congress announced that it would file a complaint with the UN Council on Human Rights in Geneva. The U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution condemning Mahathir for his anti-Semitic remarks.


Mahathir, however, rejected all criticism and did not apologize. The only step taken was an official Malaysian letter, not from Mahathir himself, to the UN Council on Human Rights claiming that Mahathir was incorrectly quoted in the media and "never intended to insult Jews or cause them distress." Whereas the World Jewish Congress praised the letter and considered the incident closed, Israel did not see it as an adequate apology.

On 21 June 2003, officials of Mahathir's political party distributed copies of Henry Ford's anti-Semitic book The International Jew to delegates at their annual assembly, where Mahathir delivered a speech. On 16 October that year at a meeting of the OIC in Kuala Lumpur, two weeks before stepping down as prime minister, Mahathir delivered an anti-Semitic diatribe, saying among other things that "the Jews rule the world." Although many countries outside the OIC objected, he did not retract. The Egyptian foreign minister and other Muslim figures praised his remarks and supported him.


Nevertheless, during these years the signs of a thaw continued. In 1998 a Malaysian, for the first time since 1965, took a course on community development in Israel.32 In February 2000 two Israeli teams, male and female, participated in a ping pong tournament in Malaysia. The opposition Muslim political party warned the government of "undesirable consequences" and claimed Israel was an "illegal country." The minister of sport responded that Malaysia could not discriminate against any country if it wished to hold international sport competitions and especially if it wanted to host the Asia Games in 2006. He affirmed that Malaysia's view of Israel as oppressor of the Palestinians remained in force.

Since succeeding Mahathir as prime minister in October 2003, Dato Seri Abdullah bin Haji Ahmad Badawi has reiterated Malaysia's total support for the Palestinians and severely criticized Israel, though in a style less crude than Mahathir's. He accused Israel of state terrorism and of inflicting evils on the Palestinians that were starting to resemble the atrocities undergone by the Jews themselves. He said in a speech on 14 September 2005, "We must maintain a distinction between acts of terrorism and the right of people fighting for self-determination," implying that Palestinian terrorism was justified. He criticized suicide bombings as inexpedient but not as immoral.


Conclusion
Despite Malaysia's many provocations regarding Israel, especially during Mahathir's tenure, the country has not generally been of great interest to Israeli policymakers or to Asia specialists in its Foreign Ministry. Sharett was an exception, and Meir in the 1960s and Rabin in the 1990s also showed some interest. Otherwise prime ministers and foreign ministers have been indifferent, even though Mahathir's pronouncements in particular could have prompted Israeli countermeasures in the United States.

Malaysian politicians from time to time state that they will not open diplomatic relations with Israel so long as the Palestinian problem is not solved.

The Law of Attraction



















The following Article is contributed by Shweta Rai.


The Law of Attraction is a deceptively simple philosophy by which we can live life on our own terms and attract things, experiences and people to us. In the simplest possible terms, the Law of Attraction says that "like attracts like." This is evident in the world around us -- think about old sayings like, "birds of a feather flock together," or "tell me who your friends are, and I'll tell you who you are."


But the Law of Attraction takes the concept of "like attracts like" to a deeper level: the level of thought. This means that not only do we attract circumstances, material objects and people to us according to our actions, but also according to the thoughts we consistently hold in mind. This too can be seen on a commonsense level.


For example, it is obvious that people who succeed in business spend a great deal more time thinking about business success than people who do not do well in business, and the Law of Attraction explains why this is true.


On a deeper level, the Law of Attraction is based on the concept that everything in the universe is simply energy. Over the past century, scientists have begun to understand this fact as well, and especially within the field of quantum physics, there is now an understanding that all material "things" are actually just energy vibrating at a certain frequency.


This means that energy vibrating at one frequency takes on the appearance of a tree; energy vibrating at another frequency takes the appearance of a person, or a car, or a blade of grass, or anything else that exists. Don't misunderstand: this is not science fiction or "new age" spiritualism. It is real science being conducted by real scientist in laboratories every single day.


Just like everything else in the universe, our thoughts are "things" too. This means that our thoughts have power and the concepts we consistently keep in mind DO affect us. Again, this can be seen on a very commonsense level. If you grew up in a home where you were told you were inferior to other people every single day of your life, do you think by the time you were grown you would have a poor self image?


Of course you would, because you had been presented with this information over and over and over, and it has become your habitual way of thinking. But even in this extreme circumstance, you are still not a victim. You always have a choice what you choose to think, regardless of what other people may say or do, or what you see going on in the world around you.


Of course it can be difficult to think good things about yourself, when all you ever hear are bad things, but you can still do it -- get just takes more concentration and focus. At the end of the day, you are always responsible for your thoughts -- so am I, and so is everyone else.


This idea scares some people -- they really don't want to be responsible for their lives or their thoughts. But in fact, it is actually great news. The fact that only YOU are responsible for your life means that YOU are in control. You can create it anyway you want it, or as I often like to say, "It is what I say it is." This is not egotism -- this is taking responsibility for your life, and once you reach this point, the Law of Attraction begins working for you instead of against you.


Now let's break all of these ideas down and apply them to your day to day life. Understanding the Law of Attraction means understanding that you are NEVER a victim. You attract everything that comes into your life -- both good and bad. This can be difficult to accept at first for some people. After all, none of us want to face up to the idea that we have attracted a bad situation, person or experience into our life. But the truth is -- we do.


This is the first concept that must be clearly understood in order to use the Law of Attraction to create the life YOU want. You must take responsibility for everything, and everyone in your life, with the understanding that you have attracted these things by virtue of your thoughts.


So does this mean that you have to closely monitor your thoughts, and be ultra careful what you think about every day and night? No, not exactly. But it does mean that you should pay special attention to the things that are "on your radar" on a daily basis. You see, it is your PREDOMINANT way of thinking that determines what is attracted to you.


For example, if you occasionally think about poverty and poverty-stricken people, but you're PREDOMINANT mindset is one of wealth and abundance, you can expect to attract a lot more abundance and wealth into your life than poverty. This may sound like a ridiculous oversimplification, but it is absolutely true. The more you think about a thing, the more you attract that thing to you.


And it doesn't matter if the thing you are thinking about is something you want or not. For example if you have a friend or loved one with a disease, you might begin to spend a lot of time thinking about that disease. This would be a very poor choice to make, because anything that you think about consistently will move closer to you in your life. In other words it will be attracted to you.


The great psychologist, and originator of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dr Albert Ellis, is famous for saying, "We become what we think about." This is the simplest way of explaining how the Law of Attraction works and how you should organize your life -- and your thoughts -- to create the life that YOU desire, the life that only you can create.


Unfortunately, we lived in a world where the Law of Attraction is not understood well at all. Every day, well-meaning people focus their attention upon horrible things, things they do not want in their life, things they want to fight against, or to do away with. The problem is, by doing this they simply attract more of these things into the world.


Mother Teresa understood this concept well, and when she was asked to participate in an anti-war rally, she flatly refused, saying, "I will never attend an anti-war rally -- call me when you have a pro peace rally and I'll be there." Mother Teresa understood that our attention and our thoughts have power, and anything (whether good or bad) that we give our attention to will grow stronger and become a bigger part of our lives.


To summarize, to work with the Law of Attraction it is important to remember that you are NEVER a victim -- you have attracted everything and everyone in your life by virtue of your habitual way of thinking. Understanding this will lead you to the obvious conclusion that it is of the utmost importance that you pay attention to what you allow "on your radar." This means making it a point to never focus on things that you do not want. To do so is to simply attract more of these things into your life.


And finally, working with the Law of Attraction means understanding that above all else, you are a CREATOR. You create your own reality, and you co-create the reality of others. This means that if there are our people or situations in your life that you are not happy with, it is up to you (and only you) to change them. No one else can create in your experience -- only you can do that, and the process always begins with a single thought.


Thoughts are the building blocks of your reality. It begins with a single positive thought, focused with a laser-like precision on a thing you desire to have in your life. That single positive thought expands attracting more positive thoughts, which expands and attracts even more positive thoughts, which expands, and so on, and so on.


This is what is meant by the expression, "The more you feel good, the more you WILL feel good." Every good thought and emotion attracts to it at another good thought and emotion, and pretty soon you have an avalanche of positive thought and emotion running through your life, attracting only the best the universe has to offer.


Remember, using the Law of Attraction is all about using the power of your own thoughts. Everything begins with the thought -- there is no building, business or even relationship that did not begin with a single thought. Understanding the power of your habitual way of thinking, and taking responsibility for it, will help you create a life of unimaginable beauty, abundance and success. And the method by which this happens is known as the Law of Attraction.

CHANGE WE MUST BELIEVE IN



A letter from SHWETA RAI to The Scribe


Hi,


I am shweta.


I follow your webpage and appreciate all that you are doing. So much of injustice happens not only in our country but all over the world. Blogs like yours and other news media play an important role in educating the public. I have always been an apolitical person. Naive or selfish if you may say. I was always living in my comfort zone. The Hindraf rally on the 25th of November 2007 sort of changed my perspective.


Today, I have become more aware about the suffering and injustices brought to people around me. A lot of anger and hatred was seething within me . Not only to witness the attrocities in this country but in places like Africa, India, Middle East and all over the world.


I have gone through many issues in my life too. Somehow I have come to learn in my journey of life, that I had attracted whatever positive or negative situations in my life. It took me all these years to truly understand that I am the creator of my destiny.


I came across this concept about the Law of Attraction a few years back and somehow did not apply it . Though cynical about the concept, I decided to give it a try and today I would totally belive in it's theory .Not by hearsay but from my own experience.


You may ask me why am I telling you all these, but I have a reason for that.


We as a human race have always been trying to solve our problems by focussing on them. Since time immemorial the world has been plaqued with different types of problems and suffering. But everything boils down to the same place. A place of misery and unhappiness.


I question myself where have we gone wrong. Why are we not able to solve our crisis for all these centuries.Has our approach been wrong ? Have we taken the wrong solution ? Questions like these bombard my mind.


After much soul searching and reading, if you may say so, I attracted an answer to my questions.


I was astonished by the fact that the answers have always been there ! Now we find many life coaches in US and many parts of the world practicing the Law of Attraction. You must have come across "The Secret" and The Law of Attraction. Many people like Bob Proctor and many others believe in this concept of flowing with the nature. The nature of attracting that which we think about the most.


Though I am not a christian, I have been schooled under the missionaries and have read the bible many times. I was amazed to realize that the bible too has said this and sadly we as a human race have forgotten this beautiful saying and hence have not put into practice in our lives.


As Christ said :


American Standard Version

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:


Matthew 21:22 "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."


Mark 11:24 "Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you.


We have been attracting the wrong things in our lives. We have been focussing on all the negativites around us and have made it grow huger and huger, so much so that it has come to suffocate us. We are one human race on the face of this earth trying to fullfill our journey. Most of us are lost and do not know what to focus on.


As a people, if we can be educated to ask for the positive. If we can approach from a different perspective than we may see a change happening in the world.


I have put up an article of "We are the creators of our own destiny " on my blog.http://ekta57.blogspot.com/2009/01/we-are-creators-of-our-own-destiny.html


Without much going further please read the article on the Law of Attraction that I have attached with this mail.


Bloggers like you who are popular will be able to disseminate this information to more people. I feel that we as a society need to become active in bringing about a positive change not only in our lives but in the lives of everyone around us. And if each one of us will be able to do this one can imagine the change happening globaly.


Thank You


Shweta.

THE OPPORTUNITY COST OF MALAYSIA'S SUPPORT FOR THE PALESTINIANS, ARABS, IRANIANS AND ALL THINGS DONE BY MUSLIMS


Malaysia seems to be mesmerized with all things Arab. One can't be blamed if one gets the feeling that some Malays are Arab wannabes. Unfortunately, these Malay Arab wannabes don't seem to understand that their so-called Arab brethren look down on them with vile contempt. This whole exercise of solidarity with the Palestinians is not bought wholesale by the Arabs. It's best that Malaysia's foreign policy be dictated with reason and common sense rather than to be dictated by political showmanship of Umno and blind loyalty for the Palestinians, Arabs, Afghans and Iranians all because of religion, without knowing the Evil that these people can do in the name of Allah swt. The Scribe finds this following article to be very appropriate to where Malaysia is heading for as a Nation.


Jihad Watch Board Vice President Hugh Fitzgerald surveys the situation in "tolerant," "progressive" Malaysia:


Malaysia is, quite incorrectly I'm afraid, always adduced as an example of a progressive, forward-looking, prosperous Muslim state. In fact its prosperity would be considerably diminished but for its Chinese and Hindu population. All Malays are required to be counted as Muslims, and all Muslims benefit from a disguised jizyah tax on non-Muslims which is called the "Bumiputra" or "Sons of the Soil" system. Most Westerners are unacquainted with the "Bumiputra." But anyone living in Malaysia who is unaware of the "Bumiputra" system has not yet sunk beneath the surface of Malaysian life. Although the word means "sons of the soil," it is not the indigenous Malaysian tribes that benefit from the "Bumiputra" policy, but Malay Muslims alone.


According to this "Bumiputra" idea, all economic undertakings, all examples of entrepreneurial flair, must have Muslim Malays as their full partners. Two Chinese who wish to open, for example, a computer consulting company, or an architectural firm, are required to take on a Muslim Malay (but not a Hindu, nor another Chinese) as a full partner, with an equal financial stake -- even though he need not contribute a thing. This is simply a way to ensure that the Muslims can continue to live on the backs of non-Muslims, which is part of the traditional status of dhimmi, including the payment of the jizya (and kharaj, or land-tax).


The real "Sons of the Soil" -- the real indigenous tribes of Malaysia -- in fact are almost entirely Christian, where they are not pagan. These tribes of course, benefit not at all from the Bumiputra system.


Some indication of the nature of Muslim dreams in Malaysia can be gauged from the speech of Mahathir Mohammed, the former "moderate" president of the country. In his notorious address several years ago to assembled heads of Muslim states, he seemed to be advocating "reform" when he called for the harnessing of science and technology -- not in order to investigate the structure of DNA, or the Eight-Fold Path, or De Sitter space, or how to preserve biodiversity in both Wilsonian (Woodrow and E.O.) senses. No, no, what he had in mind, and what he called for, was a Muslim "reform" that would permit Muslim countries to catch up with the West almost entirely in one area and one area alone -- weapons technology. For that he was wildly applauded. This tells us a lot about him, and about the country which he ran, as does the Bumiputra system.


If Malaysia, that supposedly "advanced" and "tolerant" Muslim state, brimful of Western computer companies having their components made or put together there, imposes a disguised tax on non-Muslims, and if the best it can do by way of "moderate" Muslim is Mohammad Mahathir, what does that tell us about the state of this “advancement” and “tolerance”?


For Malaysia -- Muslim-ruled Malaysia -- also displays contempt for the free exercise of the individual conscience. In Islam, once a Muslim, you are seldom allowed out. You are akin to a soldier in the Army of Islam. Changing your faith, or abandoning it, is equivalent to deserting from that army. And that is why, when it comes to Muslims and apostasy -- All Dare Call It Treason. So don't try to become a non-Muslim if you are born into Islam; keep it to yourself. And if you are a famous non-Muslim, such as the famous mountaineer M. Moorthy, a Hindu, your relatives may discover that unbeknownst to themm, the state will after your death claim that you are a Muslim and insist on giving you a Muslim buerial. And this posthumous "islamization" will take place despite the protests of friends and family, possibly the result either of your fame (which must be claimed for Islam) or your property (to be inherited now by that relative who did convert to Islam and who apparently swears up and down that just before his death, so did the prominent relative in question.


Malaysia is well-endowed with natural resources, and it would be hard to be poor with such resources. Still, resource-poor but largely Infdiel Singapore has run economic rings around Malaysia ever since they bloodily parted ways. And all those manufacturing jobs which made Malaysia a center for Western companies -- assembly-lines for computers, that sort of thing -- will likely move China-wards, where labor costs are lower, and workers more skilled. China -- Infidel China -- offers a much better place for those Western businessmen who are currently in Malaysia, but may find that they no longer wish to fund, however indirectly, the jihad being waged worldwide by Muslim economies and Muslim peoples. Meanwhile, the real talent will move to Singapore, which has no natural resources but has a talented and motivated citizenry that keeps careful tabs, through a whole series of legal measures, on the spread of Islam in the country.


It is also our choice, the choice of the Infidels, whether to invest in Malaysia. There is nothing like Muslim violence to discourage investment, tourism, trade, as the Arab states are finding out. Other than oil, there is no major economic activity with them, and what there is will be severely curtailed, including that easy money-maker, mass tourism. Sorry, Malaysia, for a while we indulged you. But unless you end the Bumiputra system, unless you cut your ties to the Arabs and especially the Saudis, we're afraid the business of Infidels more and more will have to go elsewhere. Nothing personal; it's just that our executives feel a bit uneasy in your country. All that kidnapping, and those bloody videos, and so on. All of that may hasten the day when it becomes time for non-Arab Muslims in Malaysia and elsewhere, to reconsider the Arab cultural and linguistic imperialism, an Arab imperialism about which the apostates (such as Anwar Shaikh) have often written, and a problem that resonates in Kurdish and Berber hearts and minds, for they have had to endure that imperialism directly from the Arabs, and not from a distance, as do the Muslims of East Asia. And there are, here and there, signs that some Malaysians who have traveled to Arab lands, and especially to the oil states, did not feel an immediate oneness with these arrogant Arab fellow members of the umma al-islamiyya, and in fact, were distinctly uneasy at what they saw, especially in Saudi Arabia. And that unease could lead to a greater consciousness of Islam as the vehicle for forcible, or voluntary, arabization, that it always was. And an independent Kurdistan, of course, would do much to raise the consciousness of non-Arab Muslims about this matter of Arab supremasist ideology within Islam, and such a raising (raise that mental roofbeam high, carpenters!) can only increase the desire of at least the most morally aware non-Arab Muslims to distinguish themselves from from the Arabs.


Meanwhile, Badawi follows Mahathir, and Malaysians keep thinking that their economy shows what can be done by a Muslim country, not what can be done by a Muslim-ruled country that is half-populated by energetic non-Muslims, who work not only for themselves, but for the Muslim half of the population. Meanwhile, in Malaysia, keep on tapping those rubber-trees, and supplying those spices. They will last, long after the computer companies have packed up and moved to China or to India. And remember to keep supplying that special wood for what trade remains in those Penang lawyers that S. J. Perelman was so fond of mentioning. That should keep your economy afloat.

PEWARIS & PPIM Must be De-registered by ROS!

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 27 — Pewaris, a non-governmental Muslim advocacy group, today appealed to MIC president Datuk Seri Samy Vellu to urge the Indian community not to get involved in any protest demonstrations during tomorrow's funeral procession for A Kugan, a suspect in a car theft case who died while in police custody.

Pewaris deputy chairman II Rahimuddin Md Harun told a press conference here that any protest during the procession was inadvisable as it might offend the sensitivities of others.

Yesterday, Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar issued a warning that police would take stern action if the procession was used to stage illegal protest demonstrations.
Kugan's remains will be brought from the University Malaya Medical Centre near here to the Batu 14 Puchong crematorium for final rites before being cremated.


PEWARIS and Malaysian Muslim Consumer Association (PPIM) came about after Umno's drubbing in GE-12. It is very clear that both NGO's are backed by Umno namely by the likes of Khir Toyo and Muhammad Taib. These two NGO's are nothing but racist and extremist in their agenda.

PEWARIS and PPIM have no business to warn or threaten anyone. The mourners of the Kugan funeral procession are venting their anger against the Police and the BN regime and NOT AGAINST ISLAM OR THE MALAYS. It is very clear here that Umno is using both NGO's to stir up racial unrest so that the blame can be pinned on Pakatan Rakyat and Hindraf. In doing so, the Evil BN/Umno regime can use the ISA to detain Pakatan Rakyat leaders while at the same time be seen as the champion of the Malay race and Islam.

Another interesting note is that why does a consumer rights association like PPIM put their noses in something nothing to do about consumer rights? Just imagine the Consumer Association of Penang or FOMCA being involved in Anti-ISA Vigils. The Scribe calls upon the Registrar of Societies to IMMEDIATELY de-register both NGO's as they are a threat to national security.

BEWARE! BN/SB AGENT PROVOCATEURS MAY BE PRESENT AT KUGAN'S FUNERAL

A Kugan - Satu lagi Projek Kerajaan Syaitan Barisan Nasional? (Another Project by the Satanic Barisan Nasional Government?)

The Scribe is concerned with the threat made by Selangor CPO Khalid Abu Bakar that the Police will take action if this Wednesday's funeral procession of Police brutality victim the late A. Kugan. The Selangor police have warned those attending the funeral of A. Kugan, who died whilst in police custody, not to participate in any illegal gathering or carry banners and posters. The Selangor Police Chief said the funeral should not be politicised or turned into an illegal demonstration as it would disrupt public order and lead to chaos.


The Evil BN/Umno regime is fearful that the funeral of Kugan will not only turn into a public display of anger against the Police but also against the Regime itself. The Scribe has reason to believe that agent provocateurs will be planted by the Special Branch among the crowd of mourners to instigated trouble so that the Police and the Evil BN/Umno regime can blame it on Pakatan Rakyat and Hindraf. This will be the excuse Home Minister Syed Hamid Albar will need to to use the Police Act. the Emergency Ordinace Act and the ISA to stifle public dissent against a corrupt and discredited despotic regime. The organizers of Kugan's funeral must exercise extreme caution so as not to give the Evil Police the excuse to act.


The following is courtesy of MALAYSIA HINDU VOICE

HINDRAF is questioning the integrity, accountability and transparency of the police force in cohort with the AG's office in issuing statements just to create an atmosphere to subdue public outcry.

Most Malaysians are aware that murder is a non-bailable offence according to the Penal Code. The brutal murder took place on January 20, 2009 and it has been four days and all we hear are contradicting statements from the police force and the AG's office as usual from their mouthpiece, the mainmedia spinmasters to downplay the whole incident. Kugan's brutal murder was committed while he was in detention in the police station not elsewhere, why do the police force and AG's office needs three (3) days before even classifying it as a murder or arresting the accused police murderers? Why those who committed this have not been arrested until today?

Why such double standard? Is it because he is a defenseless Malaysian Indian? Is this going to be another cover –up and hoodwinking process for the public to absorb? Why is there a preferential justice for the perpetrators, just because they were police officers? Enough is enough, the late Kugan is also a Malaysian and he deserves equal treatment in the cause of justice in parity with any other Malaysian for the atrocity perpetrated by the police murderers or anyone else under Article 8 of the Federal Constitution.

The police force and the AG's office are government servants working for the interest of the public in administering the governance of the nation and not in a position where they have discretion in preference for the police murderers and use it as and how they wish to administer that is suitable to their position to suppress the due process of law against public interest.

The foul play by the UMNO led administration through their executives is totally unacceptable as this is a brutal murder that took place while the late Kugan was in custody. The implementation of IPMC is paramount to ensure accountability and transparency prevails for the society as human right abuses and violations prevails within our systems with the current lopsided administration in the interest of the public.

Thank you.

P.Waytha Moorthy
HINDRAF- Chairman

Comment by PAKAC LUTEB

Re: The case of Kugan.

The marks on his neck are suggestive of having had some wire or cord tightened around his neck.
I hope the autopsy included careful full dissection of his neck,because in cases where a person is strangled to death, often the Hyoid (a small bone in the neck) is broken.
Using a broken Hyoid bone as evidence of strangulation was taught to myself and my classmates by a professor who was known for his forensic skills.
I think (don't recall for sure) which blood vessels rupture when a person is strangled. eyes? lungs?

"WE, THE RAKYAT (PEOPLE) ARE BEHIND YOU, PAULA KHOO"


"But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved." Mark 13:11-13


You are right in what you said in the post. I could have backed out and sat at home in the comfort of my home reading my favorite novel or blogging but I took a bold step forward and the rest is history. I did not do it for fame or glory but with a sincere heart for the cause and it was only after the encounter that I had a better idea of what ISA detainees go through.Suffice to say it is not an easy road to travel, but it is made easier because of friends and fellow citizens who care.
- Paula Khoo @ MASTERWORDSMITH


Let us also not forget those who are imprisoned especially those who are unjustly detained under the Evil ISA. The Scribe especially is thinking of our Sister Paula Khoo @ Masterwordsmith (picture above) who will be at the Patani Road Police Station in Penang at 8 am Wednesday to know what the Police intend to do with her so-called participation in an 'illegal' candle light vigil for the ISA Detainee's.

Paula could have been like many others and have a 'tak mahu tahu, tak mahu ambil kira' attitude and could have been at home reading her favorite novel but she did not do that. In the end, what she got for peacefully standing up for those who are imprisoned is the possibility of imprisonment for herself.
God's favor is with Paula. What she did was and can only be explained by the prompting of God's Spirit. No matter what the Demon possessed Police of the Evil BN/Umno regime throws at Paula, she will come out victorious!
We, owe it to Paula and her family this Chinese New Year to lift them up in our prayers. Send Paula your CNY greetings by email to masterword2@gmail.com or to her Blog http://masterwordsmith-unplugged.blogspot.com/ . Show Paula and her family that we appreciate what she is doing and that we, the Rakyat (People) are behind her.


Please come in full force on Wednesday morning at 8 am at the Patani Road Police Station and show not only to Paula and her family but also the Evil BN/Umno regime and their demons the PDRM, that we the Rakyat, are solidly behind Paula and demand that the Police not to press any charges against Paula. The Scribe would like to see the support of Pakatan Rakyat especially of YB Jeff Goh and Penang Bloggers like Anil Netto, BK Ong, Lucia Lai et al turning up in support on Wednesday morning.
Meanwhile, The Scribe has been informed that the Church of Immaculate Conception in Pulau Tikus, Penang will be having a Special Mass for the ISA Detainees on Wednesday January 28 at 8pm. It would be good for all freedom loving Penangites to attend this Mass irrespective of your religious persuasions as a sign of solidarity for our comrades held under the draconian ISA.
It has been over a month now and I am stronger and not the broken, emotional woman that I was at the early post-arrest period. All I can say is thank you Lord for your strength and for sending people to guide, encourage and to help me.
- Paula Khoo

GONG XI FA CAI From The Scribe


The celebration of New Year’s Eve in the Chinese calendar will be observed tonight with several popular traditions meant to attract good fortune and health, prosperity, closer family ties, and peace in every household.
Festivals, parades, dragon and lion dances, fireworks, family gatherings, and visiting friends and relatives traditionally mark the celebration of the eve of the Chinese New Year or Spring Festival, the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays.
Homes have been thoroughly cleaned, new clothings and shoes will be worn, doors, windows, and lights will be opened, altars will be cleaned, repainted, and given new decorations.
Fruits believed to invite good fortune will be placed on tables, doors and window panes will be given a fresh coat of paint, and the color red, believed to scare evil spirits and bad fortune, will be used in decorating.
Lucky money in red envelopes (Ang Pau) will be given to children before they sleep, sweets will be served, while some will bathe in boiled pomelo leaves for good health.
Food will be in abundance during the New Year’s Eve dinner tonight, consisting of fish, chicken, dumplings, nuts, noodles, and sweets like the popular glutinous rice flour (tikoy) to symbolize prosperity, abundance, and good fortune as well as in thanksgiving for the blessings of the past year.
The celebration of the Chinese New Year traditionally begins on the first day of the first lunar month in the Chinese calendar and ends 15 days later with the observance of Chap Goh Meh.
The year 2009 is the Year of the Ox, which is also known by its formal name of "Ji Chou."
Often mistaken to mean Happy New Year, "Kung Hei Fat Choi!" is Cantonese for "Congratulations and be prosperous."
According to legend, greetings of congratulations were exchanged in ancient China during the celebration of the first New Year after the people survived a man-eating beast.
The beast was said to be afraid of the color red and loud noises. The ancient Chinese drove and scared the creature away through firecrackers.
The Scribe takes this opportunity to wish you and your loved ones a New Year blessed with Peace, Prosperity and Good Health. GONG XI FA CAI!
