Malaysiakini - Army veterans do 'butt exercises' at Ambiga's house
My uncles who served in the military have asked me to express their disgust at those so-called army 'veterans' who showed their butts in front of Ambiga Sreenevasan's house in Bukit Damansara to protest her leadership of Bersih.
Those half-past six idiots who claimed to be members of the Malaysian Armed Forces Veterans Association (PVTM) showed their partisan political position and misused (and disgraced) the armed forces by calling Ambiga an “enemy of the nation who had smeared the country’s name”.
Enemy of the nation? What f* bullsh*t!
Now, everyone in this nation has a right to protest against anyone in peaceful fashion. But in their protest against Ambiga and her Bersih, a protest blatantly coloured by partisan political persuasion, those morons have smeared the apolitical status and character of the military when they shamefully claimed to represent PVTM. Don't taint the good name of the military, arseholes.
In doing so, they themselves have become the 'enemy of the state' by involving the PVTM in their political allegiance, a treasonable act which raises worrying questions about the altered status of the apolitical military.
Over the last 25 to 30 years, the supposedly apolitical public institutions of our nation have all gone to the dogs, forgetting their public role - police, EC, judiciary, civil service, former and current IGPs, and now the military - all serving not their master, the public, but instead a private organization, UMNO.
Who should we blame for politicising these institutions?
