Dear all We reap what we sow.
It's high time we CONSCIOUSLY STOP all race/religion bashings or taint any community by the actions of a few. It's high time we WALK THE TALK and TOOK ACTION for the sake of our future and the future of our children in this nation. Here's the reason why. Read below. The Sun, Tuesday, December 4, 2007 I was merely voicing public concerns: Syed Hood KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 4, 2007): Syed Hood Syed Edros (BN- Parit Sulong) has defended his Oct 29 debate in the Dewan Rakyat (Parliament) in which he questioned the display of images of Jesus, Mary and crosses in mission schools. "I was merely voicing the concerns of the public at large. I only wanted the Education Ministry to provide a clear explanation on this," he told reporters in Parliament lobby today. Syed Hood stressed that he does not have any problems with mission schools and backed this up by saying that his eldest daughter used to study in the Batu Pahat Convent Primary School. He said he was not worried about the possibility of facing sedition charges over his remarks." Malaysia is a free country. If anyone is upset they can lodge a police report," he said. On Monday (Dec 3), deputy whip and Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz said he had not received any complaints from Barisan Nasional members about Syed Hood's speech. He said the public can lodge a report with the police. Full story, visit http://www.assuntaalumni.com/media/071204-3.html More explanations given by Syed Hood, read.

Take personal ownership over the well-being of the country. 2. Do not succumb to indifference and apathy. Hold on to your ideals. Do not give way to cynicism and opportunism. Believe that you can make a difference. 3. Choose leaders who were earnest in building unity and did not resort to religious or ethnic posturing to further their careers. Raja Nazrin suggested three ways for sustained and effecive nation-building. First, uphold the Constitution. Second, put in place economic and social justice. Third, good governance and a thriving civil society REMEMBER Negara Kita, Tanggungjawab Kita (Our Country, Our Responsibility). Let's build on this together. Please forward this on to fellow Malaysians nationwide. Pat Lu Pahlawan Volunteers http://www.pahlawan.com.my Malaysian Mission Schools News Archive - Updated We are all ONE.
