I was with Anwar in MCKK.
Kamaruddin Mohd Nor was never there.
In haste and hate, there is error.

The reason i posted article macam tu is because i wanted a variety of 
discussions in hizbi. Believe me, i did not bersusah payah cari articles 
about anwar's keburukan. I came across it. and also, bukan susah pun nak 
cari articles about anwar's keburukan.

What's the point of a forum group if we just discuss one side of an opinion? 
there's no thrill. And moreover, it is not healthy. A forum group should be 
able to take anything that is posted. I'm not saying everyone should agree 
to every postings...but one should be able to read them with an open mind.

Maybe DSA did some wrongdoings (again MAYBE)...

walaubagaimanapun peristiwa yang telah berlaku telah membuka banyak minda
dan mata rakyat akan kejelekan, penipuan, penyelewangan dan kemungkaran
pihak kepimpinan BN...
yang mana saya percaya a lot of damages have been done...
dan kebanyakan rakyat tidak akan kembali kepada BN...
dan semakin bertambah kalangan rakyat yang akan meninggalkan BN...

not unless perubahan yang secara besar dilakukan pada kepimpinan, cara
perjuangan dan matlamat pergerakan BN (umno khususnya)...

This guy is a clear enemy of Anwar. He certainly did not do enough research. 
He blame Anwar for almost anything as if  within 17 yrs of Anwar in govt he 
is only a hypocrite. he forget that Anwar was the most outspoken in fighting 
for the following facts :

1. low cost housing for govt servart expecially those in lower ranks
2. Amending the anti corruption act  (most UMNO leaders were very afraid of 
this)
3. initiate a bonus for govt staff
4. Introduction of bahasa baku &  KBSR
5. fighting for a true economic  reform (unfortunately most Mahadhir crony 
will become bankcrupt)
6. Islamic bank, university, etc
7. Skim bantuan fakir miskin through YPEIM,  etc

Anwar is not perfect but at least  he is the best among the worst (BN, 
UMNO). aftre his removal what left now  is only the rot. He is somehow  
hypocrite before his  removal because he has to tolerate Mahadir but his 
limit of tolerant expires when he has to make a choice  between the people 
or the corporate crony (who need billions to inject during the crisis).  The 
'TRUE'  Anwar is what u see after his removal. This true Anwar is exactly as 
he was during past UMNO era
