Crazy Old Man

I am interested in articles written by Dr Mahathir in his blog http://chedet.co.cc. Inilah a very interesting article I've ever read on the Internet is.

Do not talk longer, let us read 19 point written by Dr Mahathir on Demonstration: -

1. We can not deny that the demonstrations have their place in the practice of democracy.

2. I just returned from a trip to Egypt. As we all know a large demonstration in Cairo has managed to bring down the Government Hosni Mubarak.

3. But the demonstration effect is not limited to the fall. Egypt's economy deteriorated very badly. Egypt, which is heavily dependent on tourism decline 80 percent during the demonstration occurred.
Even today tourists have not come back and multiply the empty hotel.

4. The attack on the police is a crime. Of course if the police attacked, the police had to use force. If the police use of force would be made an issue by the demonstrators.

5. Maybe because he wants to avoid the police response directed retreat and leave the demonstration is not controlled. This situation is dangerous because the public does not get more police protection.

6. Of course, the economic recovery is interrupted. Tourists do not come back and much less investment by local and foreign investors. Unemployment increased and the poor suffer more.

7. Although acceptable in a democracy demonstrations, it can not be used indiscriminately. Far from providing benefits to the people, it adds to people's problems.

8. Parties plan to hold mass demonstrations on 9 July. Is it true that the demonstration is intended to clean up the electoral process?

9. If the revised claim made more of an accusation against the Government and not the actual claims. The aim is to discredit the Government to gain support in the coming election.

10. Although the management of elections in Malaysia have several weaknesses, but the fact that the opposition party in this country can win. Thus the administration of elections in Malaysia until the opposition party in 2008 conquered the five states, one territory, and have managed the House of Representatives to two-thirds did not reach the goal as usual won by the ruling party.

11. Bandinglah with elections in other countries including our immediate neighbors in non-government party can not be represented on the board at all. The winners of the opposition party would be charged with various charges and taken to court. The court shall punish them wrong and can not take their place in the hall. Some are allowed to enter but do not dare speak. If you speak will not be reported in the media.

12. There are also established opposition groups in the ruling party. This is a political farce.

13. In the recent past elections too much pressure is applied by the Government concerned. Because the number of opposition candidates who won very small.
14. Unfortunately there is a party that is based in Malaysia from neighboring parties that want to be the country also received examples of neighboring countries. As the party in a neighboring country, at first promise made to establish a good and fair government. When the only people to set up the trust of government is far from guaranteed.

15. It was no specific restrictions in this country of freedom found in Western countries. This restriction is necessary for avoiding chaos occurs.

16. In the 1969 campaign fully allowed six weeks. During the campaign, political parties use race to gain support. Parties, the Government is forced to use racial issues. Reply-back of this issue in the campaign caused tensions between the races. Thus the bleeding took place May 13.

17. To reduce the possibility of burning up the campaign, it reduced the time to campaign. Moreover, the opposition parties campaigned all the time. Assembly meeting in opposition more often than the ruling party. Such freedom in Malaysia.

18. There is no reason why the demonstration to be held in the country. Representative of the opposition of so many people. If the study should be made in respect of law and election management, opportunities abound in the halls to raise and discuss these matters. But these opportunities are not fully utilized. Instead the demonstration to be held. What is the purpose? Election or trying to clean the tarnish the ruling party.

19. In Egypt I was asked why the administration of the Islamic countries there is no good. I have to admit that Muslims are easily used.
