CARTOON REVIEW: REAL DEMOCRACY?


This cartoon was published in Public News on 22/09/86. It has long been practiced the so called "real democracy" by long serviced government in Malaysia whereby the majority votes that counts,  in viewing of minority non Malay has been placed in the Ministry Cabinet.

Kartun ini dipaparkan di Berita Harian pada 22/09/86. Telah lama diamalkan apa yang disebutkan " demokrasi sebenar" oleh kerajaan yang lama menerajui di Malaysia di mana undi majoriti diambil kira, memandangkan segelintir bukan Melayu sahaja dipertempatkan di dalam Jemaah Menteri

CARTOON REVIEW : Turn it to racial issue


This cartoon was published in Public News on 21/09/87 depicted how the politicus turn public interests issue to become racial issue to make it so sensitive and vulnerable to discuss openly, otherwise you will be labelled as "racial extremist", failing which, to the extend you could be charged under ISA which means jailed without prior fair judgement. This is the common tactic used by politicus just to cover up thier wrong-doing, such as what was happen in the cases such as Bank Bumiputra scandal, Chinese coorporation conspiracy, New Economy Policy etc.

Kartun ini dipaparkan di Berita Awam pada 21/09/87 menonjolkan bagaimana politikus memutar isu yang berkepentingan awam  menjadi isu perkauman sehingga ia menjadi begitu sensitif dan sukar dibincangkan secara terbuka, kalau tidak kamu akan ditandakan sebagai "pelampau kaum", kegagalan berlaku sedemikian, pada tahap kebarangkalian kamu akan didakwa di bawah ISA di mana ia bermaksud dipenjarakan  tanpa penghakiman terlebih dahulu. Ini adalah taktik yang kerap digunapakai oleh politikus sekadar memperlindungi salah laku mereka, sepertimana apa yang berlaku dalam kes-kes seumpama skandal Bank Bumiputr, komplot koperasi Cina, Dasar Ekonomi Baru dsbnya

Chinese version is self-explanatory.
