TENTERA : JANGAN JADI BARUA BN

steadyaku47 comment : This nation is moving towards Armageddon...in the truest sense of the word. Once this Idiot and BN is through with our Nation there will be nothing left of any consequence. I pray there are enough individuals in the Army today who will be true to their creed GAGAH SETIA...and that there are enough of them in ATM to stand firm against any attempt by any party to use the Army for their own purpose. So help me God.

Tell me....what is that army guy doing, in the presence of BN members? This must be in Kedah, and don't tell this has got to do with the upcoming GE. My advise to the army guy (whoever he is) is not to be a 'doggy' to these goons. Stand up and say...."I don't take instruction from politicians".

Tan Sri Gen Abdul Aziz Zainal (AAZ)

by Mohd Arshad Raji Raji:

This brief article is specially dedicated to all serving military officers.

I followed closely the recent case of alleged abatement in the misappropriation of almost RM15 million in funds by former Chief of Defence Force and former Malaysian Ambassador to France i.e. Tan Sri Gen Abdul Aziz Zainal (AAZ), When the news of his arrest by MACC was reported in the media, I was shocked into disbelieving that a person whom I had known when in the service and who had reached the pinnacle of his professional career as a military officer could be handcuffed and escorted to MACC headquarters to be remanded for investigations.

I had never served him as my superior, nor had he served me as a subordinate, but we had come across each other on several occassions. At no point in time had I lay thoughts that he would become the most senior person in the Armed Forces and let alone lay thought that he was to be appointed the Malaysian Ambassador to France upon his retirement. To be appointed to such lofty positions is a desire and dream for most people; both in the Armed Forces and the diplomatic fraternity. I believe AAZ had the credentials and the confidence of the government to lead the Armed Forces and also to serve the country's Ambassador to France.

Today, AAZ was arraigned to court where he stood bail pending a full trial. Throughout the days AAZ was under remand at MACC, I received many calls from retired military officers voicing their concern and for some their displeasure at AAZ for his alleged wrong doing. I am here not to make any judgment as to the final outcome of the trial for I am not privy to the full extent of the case. But allow me to comment on the allegation for the benefit of all those military officers that are still in service.

I say to all of you that this case should not have occured for a retired senior military officer and even more so among serving military officers. You swore upon being commissioned as an officer full allegiance to King and country and to serve them faithfully and loyalty. This means that whatever you do, it is for the service to King and country. There can never be things that you do that will 'desecrate' the good name of King and country. As officers, you are constantly reminded to perform well and honorable, because honor is a vital trait (besides other established traits) to be upheld at all times. Without honor, you can never be called a military officer.

Misappropriation of funds and worse still corruption must be avoided at all costs and it is a dishonorable act. I know corruption (maybe on a lesser scale) still thrives in the Armed Forces and it is the duty of every single officer with honor to expose such 'heinous' acts. Corruption is evil and I don't have to tell you the consequence of that act when a corrupt officer faces his creator upon his/her death. Also, how could you face shame when you are caught and jailed for corruption when you are still walking this earth?

I am truly saddened by the act of AAZ for I think he had shamed the honorable and noble institution of the Armed Forces, the country and the diplomatic fraternity. Let the AAZ experience be a lesson to all setving officers regardless of rank, and let it be the last for any military officer to be hauled in by MACC for corruption or any other wrong doing.

My final plea to all serving military officers and ranks included is this i.e. please do not go near CORRUPTION ever.

Some plain talking.....

Things do not look too  good  for the good guys...that's you and me and anybody else who have yet to go over to the dark side.

Yes we had a win of sorts with this initiative by the US Justice Department to go after Red Granite, Riza Aziz, Jho Low and whoever else tied up with them but it will take years before the case finally winds up, though, there are already plus points for us. 

The best one? Hermes, Tiffany and all those Brand Name shops will only sell stuff to Rosmah for cash. The other one is that Najib is now officially a Pariah internationally among his peers....and of course those hundreds and hundreds of millions of US dollars worth of real estate, paintings, (even a jet I hear) etc etc belonging to those named by the US Justice department are all frozen and out of their reach. And if it is out of their reach it is also out of the reach of Najib and Rosmah! Woo ha!

Apart from that ....it's business as usual for Najib and gang....pillaging and plundering to their hearts content while an opposition (Mahathir, Mahyuddin and gang included), in much disarray, has only make us ask "What if?". 

What if Tok Guru, Karpal, Kit Siang and Anwar were around to rally the troops....but alas....they are not around except for Kit Siang...and there is just so much Kit SIang can do to being about change if all he has is DAP.

So I have my wish list.

First, because there are only nine of them, I wish for the Sultans to flex their flabby and somewhat unused muscles and move against Najib...not Umno...just Najib! A word of advice Tuankus.....do not get too ambitious, do not rattle your sabres too loudly lest it wakes up the sleeping Umno giant that had once many years ago,moved against the Sultans to their detriment. And most important jangan minum air sambil menyelam.....i.e just focus on getting Najib out and nothing else. No talk about Johor leaving Malaysia, no talk about any increase in allowances or more business opportunities...just get Najib the hell out of Seri Perdana...with Rosmah of course! 

All the Sultans and the Agong must act as one because Umno will divide and rule among them if Umno could. The nine Sultans together will be a formidable force...hopefully I hope, a force for good! 

Then there is the ATM. Tabek Tuan! 

Angkatan Tentera Malaysia, especially the Army, can make or break Najib. Again not Umno......just Najib Razak. The Army commands much respect and reverence among many many Malaysians simply because they are seen to be above politics, above race and religion. When push comes to shove, will the Army tolerate a PM so corrupt that over seven countries, and counting, will be or are already officially investigating his money laundry activities and the scams he has perpetrated on the Malaysian people through 1MDB? I hope not!

In all our history the ARMY has always stayed above politics...maybe it is time the Generals consider what is best for the people and the future of Malaysia. 

There you have it....if the Sultans and the Army moved against Najib, not even UMNO or any amount of money that Najib has in his bank, will be able to save him.

I rest my case!
