Malaysian Parliament throws out democracy - suppresses minority report for clean polls


M'sian Parliament throws out democracy - suppresses minority report for clean polls
The much anticipated with hope debate on the PSC report on electoral reforms in Parliament has been blotched. And with that, democracy in Malaysia has been slayed without mercy.
The Bersih 2.0 that was once branded as "unlawful" had withstood the anti-democracy pirates' agenda and peacefully navigated into the august house of Parliament the rakyat's demand for a clean, free and fair elections.
The PSC report that was commissioned after much resistence, reflected the rakyat's and the sensible leaders' aspirations to give Malaysia the very brand of democracy that the world-over champions, sanctions and nurtures.
But after all the hard work and commitment to put Malaysia on the world's pedestal of democratic rights and civil liberties, the very pinnacle of democracy - the House of Parliament, throws out democracy.
A dark day
Indeed if it is not a dark day for Malaysia what else could it be? We have witnessed tyranny overthrow democracy in a fleeting moment. It is tragic for Malaysia.
Only 2 out of the 10 recommendations of the PSC report were accepted in Parliament. It means that even the wisdom, foresight, loyalty and concern of the PSC members are not respected by BN politicians.
Only 1 of the 8 recommendations arising from the 28 million rakyat through the Bersih 2.0 initiative has been accepted. It speaks of total disregard for a population that aspires to protect, nurture and support this nation in the way forward. It simple means that democracy is not the enlightened route of the politicians.
The rakyat - including the learned and enlightened minds of numerous leaders, are being bulldozed over. Their only demand - the expressed need to ensure clean, free and fair elections is deemed as so gross, unappealing and totally unnecessary by the BN politicians.
Clear rejection of free and fair polls
And the PSC report in earnest captured without fear or favour the very essence and fundamentals that will ensure a truly democratic nation that enshrined civil liberties. But that has been completely negated by the very institution that is the pinnacle of democratic nations - the Parliament.
If BN politicians and Parliament was not going to debate and pass the PSC report why in the first place commission it? Is this all not a reflection of a typical and tyrannous regime?
So have we not now entered the darkest hour and period in the history of our nation?
Citizens, leaders, and the learned minds and loyal hearts of Malaysia cannot take a back seat now that politicians have shown in no uncertain measure that even the august house of the Parliament is under their selfish siege.
