Make sure your youth is really a youth, BN

Posted: 28 May 2011 02:11 PM PDT

I doubt these grandfathers really know what are the problems faced by the youth these days.

By A Malaysian Youth Voter

 

Dear Barisan Nasional,

in last general election March, 2008, it has been proven that Barisan Nasional no longer has the influence in voicing out the concerns of the youth in our country.

Barisan Nasional has almost completely lost out in the battle of the votes from the youth in our country. We can see that BN tried to organise many programmes but why still are they not acceptable by the youth?

To me, most of these events are superficial in nature and mostly attended by people who are no longer considered youth.

What really is "youth" (Belia) in the minds of Barisan Nasional leader?

But I doubt Barisan Nasional would answer that as their youth leaders and members are those who are no longer "YOUTH" themselves.

The age limit of youth in Barisan Nasional is 45 years old......some at that age can even be a grandfather. I doubt these grandfathers really know what are the problems faced by the youth these days.

In the case of Pakatan Rakyat, PKR has already said that their youth means those 35 years and below. Worse case like DAP would be 40 years old. It is quite obvious why Pakatan Rakyat always has the edge over Barisan Nasional when it comes to tackling issues concerning the youth, like the recent JPA scholarship fiasco. They know the problems of the youth.

I'm actually not a member of Barisan Nasional or even Pakatan Rakyat. But as a Malaysian, I would hope that the party now controlling the government would do something to ensure Youths are represented by the Youth.

If BN still think that Youth means those 40 years plus, then it is better for Barisan Nasional Youth to close shop.

We will know what to do in the coming general election.

An Evening with Art Harun & Raja Petra Kamarudin

Posted: 28 May 2011 01:00 AM PDT



7.00pm, Tuesday, 31st May 2011 (with dinner)

Holiday Villa Hotel
37 Leinster Gardens
London W2 3AN

Art Harun, Malaysian lawyer and blogger, "believes that he is a failed government experiment, abandoned and left alone to roam the streets after all remedial efforts yielded no positive results. He calls himself a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), practices law for a living and tries very hard to play the guitar, sing, race cars and writes the occasional column for The Malaysian Insider to stay alive".
 
Really, Art gives himself too little credit. As a defender of free speech and a fierce critic of the abuse of the 'Special Position' accorded by Article 153, Art Harun is indeed very respectable failure.

Incidentally, Art was in the team of lawyers who made Malaysian legal history by successfully 'breaking out' Raja Petra Kamarudin from the Kamunting Detention Centre.

Raja Petra should need no introduction - recently returned to the UK after he almost walked into the Malaysian Embassy one evening in Bangkok - had he not been refrained by wife Marina and two lawyer friends. 

It has been a year since RPK emerged in London for a public speaking engagement. With yet another lawyer present, will this be another night of drama with the Authorities? Let's hope not – dinner beckons at 7.00pm.
