MCA needs a shot of political viagra, says Najib
Mkini's Yoursay: Viagra can't help as MCA already castrated by Umno

MCA wants 6% GST rate maintained for at least 5 years
Me: Even MCA expects the rate to be increased only, never to be reduced?
Be 'the next Mandela', (MCA) delegate urges Najib
Me: Unbelievable indeed! There is nothing whatsoever in Najib's aristocratic life which has anything in common with Mandela. Never spent a day in prison; became an MP in his early 20s, and it was smooth sailing all the way to become PM at age 56. With a status-conscious wife, there is no way he is giving up his position unless forced to.
As President of Umno, he is unable to change the party from within; afraid to tell off Perkasa; and so long as Umno remain a race-based party responsible for racial discrimination, it is the opposite of what Mandela fought for.
Let Malays run casinos too, ex-minister (Zaid) suggests
In mooting the idea in his latest blog post, the one-term de facto law minister chided Putrajaya for “making things difficult” for Malay businessmen by only limiting their participation to so-called halal ventures.
“Many years ago I had advocated a fairer gaming policy in the country in the belief that the Malays should be allowed to participate in this lucrative industry. I objected strongly to the gaming monopoly, the likes of which you won’t find anywhere else in the world,” Zaid said.
“It’s a ruse to enrich cronies, nothing more. If Islam were the real reason for disallowing the Malays from taking part, then there should be an outright ban.”

Me: Over the years, Umno compromised itself by benefiting from haram businesses while banning Muslims from such activities. Is it less sinful?
Tycoon Lee makes his presence felt at MCA, suggests using sin taxes to run Chinese schools
'Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew, who is also Parit Sulong MCA division member, said the federal government could channel 20% of its revenue from alcohol and gambling taxes to Chinese schools to cover their operating expenses.'
'According to Education Ministry statistics, there are now 1,291 government Chinese primary schools, out of a total of 7,709, making up the second largest number of primary schools after national primary schools which number 5,949.
There is however no government Chinese secondary schools. All 60 Chinese secondary schools in the country are private and managed by Dong Jiao Zong (United Chinese School Committees Association of Malaysia).
In 2010, there were 603,192 pupils enrolled in Chinese primary schools, compared with 2.18 million in national primary schools.'

Me: The statistics are useful for future reference. Btw, are Chinese synonymous with Sins? We appear to be so, from the way we are implicated, with references as if we have no qualms getting involved in sinful activities.
