Lets not touch on this topic. It may go on and on and potentially end up as politics thread.

Jadewhite,
Good suggestion, thanks.
May I propose that we view the link without passing comment.

If you haven't been, now is a good time.
Politics are allowed in Church.
We need more political awareness in the Church.
All are welcome to pray for the release of the ISA interns.

If it involves politicians... it equals politics... and you and I know, it means discussions about scoundrels, bankcrupts and cheats... thieves and robbers... scallawags and riff-raffs... and oh... not forgetting... fact-twisting, fictional blogging racists... :rolleyes:

might as well, not talk/discuss about them... :)

Hiya...you people like to create trouble for our Mods :)

He has already replied me in an earlier thread this morning (thread now closed)

Said Mod:
As long as it involves politicians, it's Political! Period.

We have also been requested not to ask too many complex and complicated questions on this Political issue and try to hoodwink and confuse the moderators. :D

The advise given is:
Just keep it simple, if you seriously need to mention a politician, ensure that your post it's not about 'Politics'. If you need to enlighten our members of any news, it cant be political. If you wish to inform people here of any community project involving a politician, ensure that they are not doing it for political reasons.:confused:

Aiyaaaah ... see, see, you oso got it wrong yourself.

My message was that I make things simple (instruction-wise) so the actions taken are very straight forward. Dwell into politics, I take it out ... and sometimes, I take the person out as well.

You can make it complicated, no problem... however, you may not like my simplistic actions.

Take it easy brother. These are not times to get agitated over somebody else's problems, right?

go take a break. Can't speak for the rest, but you'll not get any excuse of an agitation from me again.

Go catch some rest......and all you other guys, leave our Mod alone. Seriously, how could you get your kicks by making their lives a misery?:eek:

This is Malaysia Mah, it's not their fault for the decisions they choose.

Yup... selectively. Twenty fellas posted on politics and you just closed the thread although you said at 12.32pm that there will be bananas. And you handed me a banana for harassing.... you have shown to be a biased moderator, open a thread and I will prove that to you!

Just curious why this swapping of roles need not go through Cabinet approval? Can one swap the role suka suka? :confused:

(I hope this does not constitute to any politics... I am merely discussing general knowledge only. I hope those who wanted to reply me, keep it general too, not bringing in political factors.)

EVERYTHING which concerns the future of this country; adjustments to its laws, policies and administration; on makro and micro level; its internal and external relations; are POLITICS.

I would guess that the KW and Jeff apply a very narrow and specific definition of 'politics'; namely anything that is related to the partisan 'war' between BN and PR which is fought on many fronts; while other political topics such as mass transportation system, education and MPSJ related affairs are allowed to continue.
