    it is a democratic party in its own context, definition and practices. however, their context, definition and practices are not universal.

    Basic principle in democracy is ... there must be a Seperation of Power between Judiciary, Executive and Legislation .... i don't see any seperation of power in Malaysia ... especially when stupid Lingam interfere with Judiciary and Executive control over Legislation ....

    it's unfair to seek absolute democracy from UMNO because UMNO is under BN and BN consist of several parties.

    Mahathir was a dictator becoz he had to .. to prevent some Moron from making a stupid decision and ruin this country ...

    Pak Lah ... is .. hmm not a dictator and not democratic ... but he's weak ... very weak ... Pak Lah .. don't be so arrogant ... step down and spend the rest of your life with the mtfk Pekida.

    THE TIME OF UMNO GREATNESS IS OVER.

    CONSERVATIVE MALAYS ARE DEMINISHING.

    MODERN MALAYS ARE INCREASING.

    UMNO IS HISTORY.

    UMNO MONOPOLY OF POWER IS OVER.

    TODAY MALAYSIAN ARE GOING FOR TWO PARTY SYSTEM.

    LOOK LIKE ALL PARTIES HAVE THEIR RIVALS.

    UMNO VERSE PAS.

    MCA VERSE DAP.

    MIC VERSE HINDRAFF.

    MAYBE IN SABAH AND SARAWAK THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING.

    WHATEVER IT IS, WE ARE SEEING A TWO PARTY SYSTEM

    LIKE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN AMERICA BETWEEN

    THE DEMOCRAT AND REPUBLICAN.

    BARISAN NATIONAL VERSE BARISAN ALTERNATIVE

    COULD BECOME A REALITY IN THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION.

    TODAY IT IS 63% FOR BARISAN NATINAL

    TODAY IT IS 37% FOR BARISAN ALTERNATIVE

    AS TIME GOES BY THE GAP WILL BECOME 5050.

    TODAY DEGREE HOLDERS ARE RUNNING OPPOSITION PARTIES

    IN 1969 LORRY DRIVE CAN WIN

    BUT TIME HAVE CHANGE

    WE ARE SEEING PROFESSIONAL RUNNING OPPOSITION PARTIES.

    IN AN ERA OF COMPUTER AND CELL PHONE

    THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT CONTROL THE MIND OF THE PEOPLE.

    THE NEW GENERATION WANT NEW THINGS.

    EVEN PAS KELANTAN COMING UP WITH NEW THINGS FOR THEIR YOUTH.

    THE GOVERNMENT COULD INVITE ALL MP AT PWTC

    FOR A FORUM AND HOW TO COME UP WITH A NEW CONSTITUTION

    THAT IS SECULAR IN NATURE.

    MALAYSIA COULD BECOME A REPUBLIC WHEREBY

    ALL 5 MAJOR RACES WILL BE PRESIDENT EVERY YEAR.

    ENGLISH COULD BECOME THE MEDIUM OF INTRUCTION.

    ALL RIGHTS FOR MALAYS TAKEN AWAY

    BUT REPLACE WITH MALAYSIAN RIGHTS.

    THAILAND AND INDONESIA ARE PLANNING TO INVADE MALAYSIA

    ARE MALAYSIA GOVERNMENT READY FOR THIS NEW BALL GAME.

    WITH MALAYSIAN DIVIDED INTO TWO PARTY SYSTEM

    IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THAILAND AND INDONESIA TO OVERAN

    MALAYSIA WITHIN 6 MONTHS.

    WE MUST NOW THINK AS MALAYSIAN.

    THE DAYS OF UMNO, MCA AND MIC IS OVER.

    MAYBE, IT IS ABOUT TIME MALAYSIA BECOME

    A REPUBLIC AND PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION HELD.

    WE MUST FACE THE NEW REALITY.

    UMNO AND POLICE CONNECTIN IS OVER.

    HUMAN RIGHTS CAN MAKE THE GOVERNMENT LOOSE MILLIONS OF RINGGIT.

    JUDICIARY, PARLIMENT AND EXCUTIVE ARE FALLING FOR MONEY.

    WE MUST THINK AS MALAYSIAN.

    THIS IS THE BEST ROAD FOR THEN NEXT 600 YEARS.

    EVENTUALLY, PEOPLE WILL SPREAD OUT TO OTHER NATIONS

    THE END OF MALAYSIA COULD BE AROUND THE CORNER.

    A NEW MALAYSIAN ERA IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE.

    LET US START LEARNING ENGLISH TO UNITE ALL RACES

    THIS IS THE BEST OPTION.

    EQUALITY IS STILL THE BEST OPTION WE HAVE.

    MR. ROBIN DONALD.

    KUALA LUMPUR,

    MALAYSIA.
