The Colors of Malaysia, Thaipusam Festival 2010 at Batu Caves

Naked-Malaysian — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 15:44:38 +0000

Thaipusam or Thai Poosam is celebrated in Malaysia somewhen between January to February every year mainly by the Tamil Hindu ethnic. To be precise, the date for Thaipusam is determined by the Tamil calendar that falls on a full moon day in the auspicious 10th. Tamil month of Thai when the constellation of Pusam, the star of well-being, rises over the eastern horizon. This year Thaipusam fell on recent 30th. January 2010.

The biggest Thaipusam festival is held annually at Batu Caves, Selangor and has become one of Malaysia key tourism attraction with hundreds of thousands devotees, tourist and visitors flocking the compound of Batu Caves Lord Murugan Temple to perform or watch the colorful and exotic Hindu religious processions.

The 272 steps to the hilltop temple and the 42.7m high Lord Murugan statue. Batu Caves before and during Thaipusam.

According to Hindu lore, Thaipusam is dedicated to hindu god Murugan, the son of Shiva and Parvati, to commemorate the occurrence when Murugan was presented a mystical lance by goddess Parvati to combat and vanquish the demon army of Tarakasura. Murugan came out as winner and was then celebrated in the victory of good over evil.

Although several Hindu shrines exist in Batu Caves, construction of a 42.7 meter high statue of Lord Murugan was completed in January 2006 making it the most dominant feature in the temple compound. In Batu Caves, devotees need to climb 272 steps to reach the temple inside the cave on the hilltop to complete the Thaipusam pilgrimage.

The first Batu Caves Thaipusam pilgrimage is believed to be in 1892 by early Tamils who migrated to colonial Malaya. Two of the first devotees made the difficult track up the ancient limestone hill and planted the `vel’ in the cave that houses a temple dedicated to Lord Murugan. The vel, made of metal and shaped like a lance, symbolizes Murugan who is also known as Velan.

On the eve of Thaipusam, a motorized five-ton silver-chariot bearing Lord Murugan’s image escorted by thousands of pilgrims leaves the Sri Mahamariaman (another name for Parvathi) temple in downtown Kuala Lumpur, on a 15-kilometre walk to Batu Caves.

At Batu Caves, devotees bring fruit and lower offerings usually in yellow or orange adorning dress in same color, the color most favored by Lord Murugan. During the procession, devotees bring milk, water, along with fruits and floral tributes on Kavadis – decorated with feathers of peacock.

Extraordinarily, many devotees torture their bodies with body piercing using hook, skewers and small lances called ‘vel’. These hooks are then tied to strings for pulling chariots or other heavy objects during the procession. Many others pierce their tongue and cheek to impede speech and thereby attain full concentration on the Lord. Most devotees enter into a trance during such piercing due to the incessant drumming and chanting of “vel vel shakti vel.”

LHDN Spells Out the Meaning of RANHILL

LHDN Spells Out the Meaning of RANHILL

Naked-Malaysian — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 01:24:40 +0000

Ever heard of a fake true story? As weird as it may sound, the following story really does fall into that category.

On one fine day a Malay worker from a private company calls Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri (Malaysia IRS) to change his mailing address. Since both of them are Malay, they converse in Bahasa Melayu.

After checking in all the important details about his file with LHDN, they come to the final part of their conversation.

LHDN operator: Say nak konfemkan betulkah encik nak tukar alamat surat-menyurat? (I want to confirm do you really want to change your mailing address?)

Malay worker: Ya, hantar ke Ranhill Worley Sdn. Bhd. opis baru saya. (Yes, just send it to my new office at Ranhill Worley)

LHDN operator: Apa Renheel? …… eja macam mana? (Renheel what? ..… how do you spell it?)

Malay worker: R.A.N.H.I.L.L eja dia camni : ‘R’.. untuk Rumah… ‘A’ untuk Ayam .. ‘N’ untuk Nangka… ‘H’ untuk Holland … ‘I’ untuk itik.. ‘L.L’ untuk lain- lain….’ (R.A.N.H.I.L.L. you spell it like this R for Rumah, A for Ayam, N for Nangka, H for Holland, I for Itik, LL for Lain Lain…)(*Rumah=House, *Ayam=Chicken, *Itik=Duck, *Lain-lain=Others)

LHDN operator: Ok.. nanti kami hantar ke alamat itu ( Ok.. we’ll send a notification to the new address)

After a week, a postcard confirming the tele-conversation was sent to the new address.

Insider Secrets To Cheap Flight, AirAsia Airlines

Naked-Malaysian — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 06:55:42 +0000

Tony Fernandez has brought new height to the word entrepreneur in Malaysia. He rose to prominence by turning AirAsia, a failing government-linked commercial airline, into a highly successful budget airline public-listed company. Fernandes was also instrumental in lobbying the then-Malaysian Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad in mid-2003, to propose the idea of open skies agreements with neighbouring Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore. As a result, these nations have granted landing rights to AirAsia and other discount carriers.

Unbelievable RM9.99 for a flight?

Datuk Seri Anthony Francis Fernandes (born 30 April 1964; also known as Tony Fernandes) is a Malaysian entrepreneur and the founder of Tune Air Sdn. Bhd., who introduced the first budget no-frills airline, AirAsia, to Malaysians with the tagline “Now everyone can fly”.

It was through Datuk Pahamin A. Rejab, the former secretary-general of the Malaysian Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry that Fernandes got to meet up with the then Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad in October 2001. The wily Malaysian prime minister had a cropper in his hand, which he had been trying to unload for nearly two years.

AirAsia, the heavily-indebted subsidiary of the Malaysian government-owned conglomerate, DRB-Hicom, was losing money speedily. Instead of starting from scratch, Mahathir advised Fernandes to buy an existing airline instead. Fernandes mortgaged his home and sank his savings to acquire the company, comprising two ageing Boeing 737-300 jets (9M-AAA and 9M-AAB) and USD$11 million (RM40 million) worth of debts, for 26 US cents (one ringgit), and transformed it into an industry player.

Coming just after the 11 September 2001, undoubtedly the worst day in the history of commercial aviation when nobody wanted to fly, everyone thought that Fernandes had gone “crazy”, predicting that the company would fail miserably. Yet, just one year after his takeover, AirAsia had broken even and cleared all its debts. Its initial public offering (IPO) in November 2004 was oversubscribed by 130 per cent.

Tony likes girls very much

Fernandes says his timing was in fact perfect: Since 11 September 2001, aircraft leasing costs were down 40%. Also, airline lay-offs mean experienced staff were readily available. He believed Malaysian travellers would embrace a cut-rate air service that will save them time and money, especially in a tight economy. That was why he copied one of the world’s most successful no-frills carriers, Ryanair out of Ireland (which in turn is modelled after Southwest Airlines in the United States). Fernandes thinks that about 50 per cent of the travellers on Asia’s budget airlines are first-time flyers. Before AirAsia, he estimates that only six per cent of Malaysians had ever travelled in a plane.

Fernandes’ biggest achievement has been to turn the AirAsia airline into an international carrier. Before the creation of AirAsia, countries in the region did not have open-skies agreements. In mid-2003, Fernandes’ lobbying pushed Dr Mahathir to raise the idea with the leaders of neighbouring Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore. As a result, those nations have granted landing rights to AirAsia and other discount carriers. Fernandes has indeed set in motion the advent of budget carriers in the region.

Shara and Ilyana of AirAsia female pilots. AirAsia rocks!

Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan Sodomized by Anwar Ibrahim, Fake or True?

Naked-Malaysian — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:40:39 +0000

Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan would be the most talked about name in Malaysia for the last 7 days, a break-out from recently infamous AdukaTaruna mania. It’s hard to write about Saiful Bukhari without unintentionally being political inclined to Malaysia Barisan Nasional or Pakatan Rakyat sides. The sodomy charge towards DS Anwar Ibrahim is not like any other trial in Malaysia judiciary court, many have went out of their way to make sure the second sodomy charge will proceed as planned. As so the country already passed the point of no return when one can still argue wether the sodomy trial was not politically motivated.

This post is not to discuss about the ongoing sodomy trial, but rather to put Saiful Bukhari in perspective.

Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan occasionally can be found with UMNO ministers

1. “Few” days prior to Saiful Bukhari lodged the police report for the alleged sodomy, he met PM Najib Tun Razak (Deputy PM at that time) at his residence. PM Najib Tun Razak acknowledged the meeting but dismissed his involvement to mastermind the second sodomy charge to Anwar Ibrahim by saying the meeting was only about helping Saiful Bukhari getting university scholarship.

a. Saiful did really bad in his engineering study at UNITEN, obtaining GPA 1.0 on semester one (06/07) and GPA 0.8 in second semester, and was already a university drop-out at the time of the said meeting. What scholarship PM Najib Tun Razak was referring to? Why was he lying? Why Saiful has special privelege and direct access to the DPM residence?

b. According to the report made on June 28th, 2008, Saiful Bukhari was sodomized on 26th. of June, 2 days prior. “Few” days mean 2-3 days, right? Was the supposely meeting being held on the same day as the alleged sodomy or before?

2. If Saiful Bukhari was sexually assaulted by Anwar Ibrahim, then why did he allow it to happened more than once despite how he might have objected it (based on his police report)?

3. If the sex was not consensual, how did a 61 years old man with a back pain trauma forced himself onto stronger young man 23 years of age (repoted to be a Tae Kwan Do black belt holder by the way)?

4. What’s with Saiful Bukhari pictures with government ministers (UMNO prominent politicians) floating around the net? Was he a mole? Musang berbulu ayam?

Saiful Bukhari's late mother and the wife of Malaysia Prime Minister

5. Was Saiful Bukhari really committed for Anwar Ibrahim’s PKR campaign during the time of his employment, when he was actually campaigning online (via his Friendster) for Barisan Nasional during the last General Elections? What was his motive?

6. When describing how the sodomy occured, Saiful Bukhari testified that Anwar Ibrahim had request by asking “Can I fuck you today?”, saying his immediate reaction to such, was feeling “angry and scared”. Saiful Bukhari claimed he maintained to refused for sexual intercourse even after consequently being offered monetary compensation. What’s very odd is why despite all of his refusal, Saiful Bukhari still voluntarily stripped naked, cleaned himself and donned a white towel for the alleged sodomy by Anwar Ibrahim?

Best way to keep DNA intact in your butt

7. Despite being “unwillingly” sodomized , Saiful Bukhari conveniently kept his cool, took his time to meet the then Deputy Prime Minister for advice, avoiding cleaning himself (specifically his butt) or taking a dump for two consecutive days, before lodging the police report and went for clinical check-up that found DNA belonging to Anwar Ibrahim inside and outside his anus. Wasn’t all of these freakishly unusual?

Street Fight Erupted after Minor Car Accident

Naked-Malaysian — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 16:59:57 +0000

This is what will happen when moron and idiot were allowed to drive. Driving in Kuala Lumpur requires one to equip himself with daily dose of patience in sufficient quantity, for going to and coming back from work safely. Most of the time in Malaysia, a car accident is just like another disaster around the corner since everyone is driving like F1 superdriver expecting +-0.5 millisecond precision braking, usually when tailgating other car at high speed or when one got caught in bumper to bumper traffic jam after waking up on the wrong side of the bed.

This video clip is rare, but the situation is not. This fight is between two Chinese. The same incident would possibly repeated if it involves a Malay vs. another Malay or Indian vs. Indian, but the probability for it to happen would really be unlikely should this 2 man are from different races.

75,000 Kelantanese and More Gathered for Oil Royalty

Naked-Malaysian — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 04:49:43 +0000

Gua Musang MP and UMNO chief Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah said last night that Kelantan is entitled for RM2 Billion worth of royalty from the oil extracted off its waters. He who is also of Kelantan royalty bloodlines (uncle to Sultan of Kelantan) and ex-chairman for Petronas, also argued why Kelantan’s royalty was not paid whereas Sabah and Sarawak got their shares. Earlier, Ku Li said that it is also the intention and with the blessing of Duli Yang Maha Mulia Tuanku Al-Sultan Ismail Petra ibni Almarhum Al-Sultan Yahya Petra and the Crown Prince that he shall be fully transparent and speak only the truth about the state rights to get the 5% royalty.

The PAS government had demanded the oil royalty payment from Petronas last year, after the Statistics Department revealed that Kelantan, together with Sabah and Terengganu, had contributed 62.5 per cent of the oil extracted in Malaysia.

The Barisan Nasional-ruled federal government has insisted oil from the joint development area with Thailand was not from part of Kelantan’s waters and has only offered RM20 million as “compassionate payment”.

But Razaleigh, the founding chairman of Petronas, disagreed with the government’s move, saying the formula for oil royalty was first agreed with Sarawak and later extended to all states.

An estimated 75,000 Kelantanese gathered at Stadium Sultan Mohamad IV last night to show solidarity against PM Najib Tun Razak refusal to let the Kelantan PAS state government manage the royalty money on its own. The UMNO led federal government has instead converted the owed petroleum royalty into compassionate money (Wang Ehsan) that will be handled unlawfully by Kelantan’s opposition UMNO and federal entity Jabatan Pentadbiran Persekutuan. In recent 2008 state election, PAS won 38 seats in contrast to UMNO only winning 6 seats. Allowing the minority electives the control of the royalty money is not only unconstitutional but also against the mandate of the Kelantanese.

A memorandum concerning Kelantan’s demand for the petroleum royalty was circulated for the crowd’s signatures and will be submitted to acting Sultan of Kelantan, the Crown Prince Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra and Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak.

Last night congregation began with the dusk prayer (Maghrib) led by Kelantan Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Ahmad Yakob, followed by Night prayer (Isya’) by Ustaz Mohamed Mustafa as imam and lastly a wish prayer led by Chief Minister Tuan Guru Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.

Pig Heads and Mosque, the epitome of insult?

Naked-Malaysian — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 15:03:19 +0000

*Warning Contains Graphic Images*

Pig heads were found thrown into the compound of 2 mosque ini Jalan Klang Lama yesterday. The pig heads were found in the proximity of Masjid Jumhuriyah, Taman Datuk Harun at Petaling Jaya and Masjid Al-Imam Al-Tirmizi, Taman Seri Sentosa, Jalan Klang Lama, Selangor.

It is no secret that pigs and dogs are considered very unclean in Islam. Mosque on the other hand is undoubtly the most holy a place can be for a Muslim. But what happened when the most unholy is purposely placed to desecrate what is most holy? An epitome of insult that wil hurt all creed of Muslims? One can only assumes a dire consequence will follow suit.

Idiots and morons engulfed with such hatred towards Islam will find this act as most effective that will most definitely guarantee success to stir religious tension.

Muslims must remain with cool head, to retaliate would only escalate the already serious matter. All Malaysian must stay united, collectively protest without causing further tension and must follow how Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. reacted on similar situation.

IMPORTANT READ

When the Prophet migrated to Medina he built the first mosque known as Masjid al-Nabi (Mosque of the Prophet), considered to be the second most sacred mosque in Islam.

One day the Prophet was sitting in the mosque along with his companions. A Bedouin entered the mosque and started urinating. The Companions rushed to catch him and give him a good beating. But the Prophet did not allow them to do so. After the Bedouin had urinated, he asked his companions to bring a bucket of water and wash the place. Afterwards the Prophet called the man and with gentleness and affection explained to him that this was a place of worship and that it should be kept clean. It is told that after seeing such kindness, the said Bedouin had eventually embraced Islam.

RELATED WORLD AND LOCAL EVENTS HOW PIG HEADS ARE USED TO STIR TENSION INTO MUSLIM POPULATION

Imam Nuh Iman, right, with Hussein Ahmed, showed where a pig head rolled into his mosque in Lewiston, Maine, USA, 3 July 2006. The culprit, Brent Matthews, 34, later committed suicide after been arrested and charged with desecrating a place of worship.

A four-year-old girl found a severed pig's head bearing a slur against Muslims on the front steps of her family's home in Ottawa, Canada

34-year-old Shimon Ben-Chaim, and his 31-year-old wife Victoria Shteinman, a Tel Aviv couple, were arrested and charged with desecrating a holy site, incitement, mutiny, insulting religious feelings, planning to commit a crime and illegal assembly after they threw a pigs head into the Hassan Bek mosque in Jaffa August 2005.

Slightly unrelated, but no less offending. Do recently unfolded events interrelated with each others thus justifying the call for Royal Commission?

AdukaTaruna, The Death Seeking Blogger

Naked-Malaysian — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 12:03:55 +0000

AdukaTaruna obtained celebrity blogger status almost overnight with his infamous remarks to the late Sultan of Johore recently. He wrote “Dah mampos buat buat cara mampos la. Boleh plak simpan mayat tunggu Datuk Bendahara balik dari shopping. Boleh meeting isytihar sedang terlentang. Pada hal dah mampos pagi tadi. Pergi mampos sama lu. Bodoh punya kerajaan spesis stupid.” (Translation; “If he’s dead, make do like he’s dead. Why keep his body unburied waiting for Datuk Bendahara (head of palace officials) to come back from shopping. Why meeting to declare he’s still lying, when actually he’s already dead this morning. Go die with you. Dumb government species stupid”).

The most offending word here is when AdukaTaruna used the word ‘mampos’ which is commonly used to describe dead animal and is regarded as very rude and demeaning in Malay language. The Malay vocabulary has different set of words to use when referring to or describing the Malay royalties compared to the commoners. The alleged insult has hurt majority of Malaysia Malay population especially the people of Johore who are still mourn the demise of Almarhum Tuanku Sultan Johor Darul Takzim Almutawakkil Alallah Sultan Iskandar ibni Almarhum Sultan Ismail late Friday evening.

Johorian who are known to love their late Sultan are furious over this matter and unanimously condemn the act of AdukaTaruna. Johor police chief Datuk Mohd Mokhtar Mohd Shariff said police received over 25 reports from various parties throughout the state.

“We will find and drag them to court,” he said, asserted that the offense is very serious and can not be forgiven.

AdukaTaruna can be prosecuted under Section 233 (1) (a) Multimedia Communications Act 1998 (Act 588) and can be punished according to Section 233 (3) which carries a penalty of a minimum one year imprisonment and/or maximum fine of RM50, 000. He may also be charged under the Sedition Act 1948 and other acts relating to royal institution.

The then Regent of Johore addressing the late Sultan. Tuanku Ibrahim Ismail was coronated as the 5th. Sultan of Johore last Saturday morning.

Aduka Taruna is a just pen name, this unknown blogger actual name is Khairul Nizam. Many have mistaken Aduka Taruna as political blogger championing PAS idealogy. AdukaTaruna blog tagline is ‘Pemerhati Bebas’ (Free Observer) showing that he’s unattached to any political faction. He is known to undiscriminately attack leaders from both political factions in Malaysia, including many of UMNO leadership, DAP, MCA, PKR and also 2 key leaders of PAS, Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat and Dato’ Seri Abdul Hadi Awang that can be found here, here and here.

To date, the blog posting that contain the alleged insult has already been deleted. Click link for AdukaTaruna public apology and his declaration not having any association with PAS.

Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim will be requesting the Attorney-General to pay particular note on the blogger who posted disparaging remarks on the late Johor Sultan.

“It is very unusual to find Asians blasting former heads of States, especially the late Johor Sultan, Sultan Iskandar ibni Almarhum Sultan Ismail, who was also our former Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

“Whatever has been said and done, no one should be creating calamity and criticism after one dies.”

“It is as if we’re coming from another planet.”

Malaysia Super League 2010 Kelantan 0-1 Kedah, The Stupid Gol Keeper

Naked-Malaysian — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 00:44:18 +0000

Lesson not learnt. The Kelantan soccer fans were again tested last 19 January night when Kedah scored one goal over Kelantan keeper silly mistake. Angry and furious at Syed Adney Syed Hussein, the former National Team 2007 keeper and former national coach, V. Sathianathan, a small number of Kelantanese almost repeated the same commotion at Bukit Jalil last November 2009 and ‘the police truck burning incidents’ in Sultan Mohamed IV Stadium in Kota Bharu month April the same year.

The latter stadium was in chaos once again last Tuesday seeing some fans throwing firecrackers and other object into the playing field.

Somehing is very wrong with Kelantan keeper. Should one asked if money got anything to do with it?

Riot and police truck burning in April 2009

It is known the Kelantanese are hardcore fanatics when it comes to soccer, and some are proud hooligans.

It is known Kelantan neighbors Thailand and supplies of heavy firecracker are easily available.

It is known Kelantanese do not accept losing at soccer, especially when caused by stupid mistake.

Lesson not learnt. The Kelantan fans need to learn anger management, the policing authority need to tighten security checks (firecrackers are illegal in Malaysia) and the players need not to play stupidly. Anyone please do something!
