Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
In the military, the Non-Malay is ridden like a horse

Friday, November 12, 2010 - Being republished due to "Ramasamy confronts 'big racial lie" - "Now for the big racial truth. The
fact is that non-Malays have never stopped loving this country. The
country stopped loving us." That's the frigging truth!!!
His sense of history and the
contributions of the Chinese, Indians and our brothers from East
Malaysia towards the sovereignty of Malaysia is being actively abrogated
by him. That is a racist and bigoted view, pure and simple.
I will not allow my emotions get to me by
being vulgar talking about our Defence Minister who cannot construct a
decent sentence in English, I will not dwell on that.
I am not insulting this dull fellow, just so that this dimwitted, crass and shallow minded individual needs some input, who was the first Malaysian to be awarded the "Pingat Gagah Berani"? He was a Chinese!
Sergeant Chong Yong Chin PGB of the First Federation Regiment, dey
Zahid I guess you did not know that. Insults have to be politely
reciprocated with civility, I am doing just that.
Did you not know who was the first recipient of the "Pingat Gagah Berani" in the Congo? Hey you dingaling , that person too was a Chinese, Lt Lee Ah Pow PGB , read about how shoddily he was treated too! There was another young Chinese Officer, Lt David Fu Chee Meng,
who too was awarded the PGB at the Battle of Tanah Hitam.
So those guys
were not patriotic enough for you? Here is my favourite, someone I know
personally, Sergeant Choo Woh Soon PGB, my wife's uncle. The short guy in the centre is Sergeant Choo Woh Soon PGB.
How about the time in Bosnia where soldiers desecrated a Catholic Cross, again the situation was salvaged by the Non Malays. For posterity I have another link here. I will not even talk about the vandalising of the Hoba Meteorite in Namibia (RMR involved). Okay continuing some more, here is another Indian who got the PGB, 2Lt Panir Chellvum al Velaithan PGB.
Still not patriotic enough for you?
Here is another Indian, who after serving a total of 29 years in both
the Police Force and the Army is denied his pension. The reason being he
did not attend the weapons course and tactics course. What weapons and
tactics course, when he and his men wiped out the remnants of the enemy
in Selangor, what would his unshaved instructors teach him?
Read about him, Captain Courageous aka Mukhtiar Singh s/o Sodagar Singh.
In any other Army in the world today, they would have cited him for
courage and piled honours on him without any questions asked,
unfortunately he is an Indian in Malaysia, get that Zahid?
Here is a picture of an all Chinese group of Kinta Valley Homeguards who fought the Malayan Communist Party.
The problem with people like Zahid Hamidi
is he does not know about people like these Chinese and Indians who
were willing to die for Malaysia unconditionally, they only wanted to be
treated fairly. The current situation is like "some people are more
equal than others". People like him are WIND BAGS, full of foul air and
all empty talk. If you notice the minorities were significant in numbers
in the forces when Malaysia was in danger, from the Japanese occupation
of Malaya, the Emergency, Confrontation and the subsequent Emergency
until the cessation of hostilities by the MCP.
Remember the Communist Party of Malaya, did not surrender. It was a treaty for the cessation of hostilities. Freeing our Great Leader to push his agenda of Ketuanan Melayu, subsequently his achievements were these
, he could not do it when the MCP was on the warpath as it would
increase their numbers. Zahid being an ardent fan of this old goat, is
still playing to the gallery.
Soldiers who have served, the Non Malays know what it is to be
discriminated against, because of their race and religion. Even the
Bumiputras of Sabah and Sarawak are discriminated against, as most of
them are Christians. While at this, being an ex- soldier and all, I have
seen many East Malaysian Officers serving in combat units, why did not
any one of them make it to General?
Not good enough? Look at how brave, loyal and patriotic they are. Go to the archives.
After seeing the results of the Sibu "buy elections", where the BN
lost, I guess they saw the writing on the wall and recently promoted an
Iban Officer to become the first Iban who made it to General, Stephen Mundaw, in
September this year.
Anyway that is peanuts, East Malaysians should
demand and expect at least a 4 star General from amongst the Ibans,
whose bodies have been littered across the battle fields in Malaysia.
Their courage and ferocity in battle is unmatched.
After having served many years and plodding along, being bypassed by
juniors and incompetents.
In the military the Non Malay is ridden like a horse, for the greater
benefit of the majority. No rewards, when it comes to promotions and
benefits, they forget you. You know that old race horse, it runs until
it drops dead or put out to pasture. Most Non Malays make it to the rank
of Major, I am sure you have heard this before, about the "infamous
glass ceiling". That is the rank you have to be happy with.
You are not promoted on merit, I know of
guys who can barely speak English, but become Generals. During my time
all the courses were in English. Ask the ex and serving Non Malays, not
forgetting the subtle hints to convert. They do not even respect your
faith by suggesting that, they look down on you.
Relgious and racial
discrimination go hand in hand together. I have also had the privilege
of seeing a General's knees tremble, when he stepped out of my Infantry
Fighting Vehicle, as I helped him down, this was after an exchange of
fire.I was the escort commander and he was riding in my IFV in Somalia.
A
hundred Non Malays would without hesitation and asking questions,
charge a hill of 10,000 enemy, if you treated them and their offspring,
as Malaysians and not as Dhimmis and
second class citizens to defend their country, Malaysia.I could
continue shellacking Ahmad Zaid until the cows come home, it is us who
are to be blamed.
He is the MP for Bagan Datuk, those of us who continue
supporting MCA and the MIC, are actually getting him elected year in,
year out. Your votes have made him arrogant. If you notice his majority
is actually shrinking. So the strongest message for that dimwit, would
be to boot this racist UMNO supremacist out of Parliament in the next
general elections.
Never forget. Of course all of you out there can post your comments, feel free to use this post.
