Guan Eng: More Malaysians should be like Nazir
BY OPALYN MOK JUNE 12 2013
Lim accuses Utusan of setting Malaysians against each other as he happily pits Nazir against Najib and UMNO |
Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng today commended Datuk Seri Nazir Razak for his outspokenness even as the CIMB Group boss continues to come under attack for defending AirAsia X CEO Azran Osman Rani for the same trait.
Lim urged Malaysians to emulate Nazir in speaking their minds despite the risk of backlash.
“I hope his brother Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak can be just as brave as him ” he said while condemning a news article in Utusan Malaysia that had labelled Nazir as “anti-Malay” for his praise of Azran. - TMI
CIMB big boss Nazir Razak is now, officially, the darling of Pakatan Rakyat. He is hailed as a new hero for coming out to praise AirAsiaX CEO Azran Osman Rani for his anti-Malay, anti-Umno stance. Nazir has even won the adoration of DAP's Lim Guan Eng, who urged Najib Razak to try and be as brave as his little brother, and Zaid Ibrahim.
The one certainty is the label of “kacang lupakan kulit” will stick forever. Many will say he is where he is today because he benefited from NEP, because he has strong ties in Umno and because of his linkages with the party top leadership. So, why is he so prepared to be seen as anti-Malay, anti-Umno and along with that, inflict the unkindest cut of them all on his own brother, the PM?
One theory is that Nazir is buying political insurance to stay relevant in the event of an "Ubah". Never mind that it could be by street violence. It has been said a corporate man is always keen to see an easier passage for his company or business's quest for profit, profit, nothing but profit. It does not matter who is the government of the day so long as he covers both sides. This sometimes can lead to spilling the beans to stay alive if there is a new power in Putrajaya.Today, given the political landscape, Nazir may be out to buy insurance. Even if the premium happens to show one is anti-Umno and anti-Malay by supporting Azran.
In the avalanche of criticisms against Nazir for biting the hand that fed him, many think he has become a liability to Umno and his own brother. Read Malay NGOs slam Najib's brother for backing AirAsia CEO.
Me, I think it is ok to massage the hand that may one day feed you but it is a betrayal to bite the hand that is still feeding you.
p.s. I hope Nazir doesn't get carried away by Guan Eng and Zaid's praises. We know they'll use anything and anyone to get at his brother.

Guan Eng said: More Malaysia should like him.
ReplyDeleteI would say No Malaysian should behave like him and his father Kit.
Dont you agree Mr Bru that Nazir, Zaid,Rafizi,Khairi J are a few towering malays who have the brains to move us forward,so pls dont corner them politically just bcos they dare to speak up.
ReplyDeleteIt means nothing if they spoke bull shit
DeleteApek Tanjung ni pasti worship TDM ..
ReplyDeleteKan TDM all the time couragous and speaks his mind.

Bru,
ReplyDeleteThe Razak bros don't get along la. It's no secret. Been reading with much amusement about Najib's advisors and war room penasihat. Let's put it this way. You can analyse ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING till the cows come home. But it is very obvious Kak Ros is the one that is wearing the pants AND calling the shots. JJ is around because of Kak Ros. JJ, that hamsap fella, introduced both of them (as in Kak Ros to her Adik Jib). Their ties go back long time. Takkan nak gugur cam tu je. Easier said than done. Easier to change the President of UMNO la. But then again headache. Siapa boleh take over. UMNO bleeding of talents. All synchopants and jadi ahli to get rich.
Oh Dear.
Dear oh Dear,
DeleteLast i checked, the Razak brothers are as close as brothers should be as ever.
both brothers n cousin should be given the
ReplyDeleteboot. It appears that some kind of stupidity runs in the family.. they are living in a sequestered world where advisors n consultants feed them infos
that do not jive with the current political perspectives of the race that puts them in power...sheeesh
He looks like Mr Bean, and that's a compliment.
ReplyDeleteNazir for PM? Eh, over lah.
ReplyDeleteI didn't really think much of what Nazir said about the Airasia X CEO anyway...
farha
Zaid wouldn't be where he is now if it hadn't been for the UMNO contracts he got.
ReplyDeleteYamseng.....cheers to the Cinabeng ass licker!! Jilat jubo cina runs in the family yeah. A Melayu Keparat, after a Melayu Tarak Telor, to lead the flock. One drove it all the way to the edge of the cliff, another to push it over. Dah tutup CIMB acct. anda? Kami sudah.
ReplyDeleteif DAP supports Nazir, then there is something wrong with the whole idea ... don't forget that the opposition is always looking to weaken the current Government... the idea by Gerakan, MCA for UMNO to open up is also the idea by DAP...

Orang kata Chinese Investment Merchant Bank...
ReplyDeleteorang kata la...
since when being RICH and smart are the prerequisite of being the PM. Zaid has lost his reasoning.
ReplyDeleteDear Roy,
DeleteZaid doesn't care. He is just using Nazir to get at older brother Najib. But it won't work. Zaid needs to be more subtle and sound less vengeful. And you are spot on: if being rich, smart and having a stand are all it takes to be PM, he would have been PM a long time ago!
Cimb tu penuh dgn cina. nazir to melayu perasan. nak jaga hati org cina sangat ...apasal ceo melayu kat msia ni berlagak nak mampos.
ReplyDeleteGet rid of nazir from the helm of CIMB, and UMNO will get more support from the CIMB malays.

ReplyDelete"Hey guys,this is how I go to work every freakin morning..HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA""
Please lah Nazir, you are not just another bank CEO. You happen to be the PM's brother too. Two reasons why they are now on your case. The Malay NGOs are whacking you and trying to get at your brother while the Zaids and the GuanEngs are insincerely praising you to force you and your brother at loggerheads.
ReplyDeleteI say Dato,
ReplyDeleteNo need to punch sipi2 la...just give a quick 2-3 but powerful JAB punch hit direct to his face
meaning...
hit directly to Najib, no need to hit that `bastardized' Nazir...
(Do you remember what nazir say about NEP?)
apalah Rocky nie...
I think we should support Nazir to be PM. Hie is so good that in no time Malaysia will be on par with Singapore economically.
ReplyDeleteThe only minor setback is that Malaysia will also be run by chinese and Muzium Negara will be renamed Muzium Melayu.
Melayu lupa kulitnya.
ReplyDeleteOnly a lawyer but with ultra-strong cable. Semua boleh ma. Tak pernah rasa miskin dan tidak berwang.
ReplyDeleteSmile and smirk like Mr. Bean!
The joke is on you the lower-class poor Malaysians.
Who dont want to be like Nazir Razak. We will all be getting 600 million commissions from PNB just by giving ideas of merger..hehe.
ReplyDeleteThen now we will talk of demerger of Sime Darby more commissions..haha..
Who dont want to be like Nazir Razak.
He just suggest some stupid ideas and the BOD of Sime Darby will agree..
If Nazir is a Singaporean malay he would be at most be a bank manager in DBS. It is just plain luck that he is Tun Razak's son and the current PM brother.
ReplyDeleteOkay

ReplyDeleteso many talent people,,too many talent people,,,too much talent people,,too muddled talent people..
ReplyDeleteSalam bru,
ReplyDeleteWhat are you driving at when such a topic is thrown to public discourse? As far we know, Nazir has never been interested in politics unlike his brother Najib since they graduated from overseas. I recalled that Toh Puan Rahah did mentioned in one of her interviews when she was much younger, when Najib was appointed to the top political office, some 37 years ago, that "one son in politics is more than enough for the family".
I opined that Nazir will never go into politics as he is 101% banker and investor. I believe there are many Malays and bumiputras who are not keen to play active politics just for the sake of seeking political power! These modern Malays like the other Malaysian Chinese are practical young leaders of the future, including people like Omar, Zaki, Vincent and many other bright young Malaysians. Among the group of 7, only Khairy by coincidence of his marriage to Noni, Pak Lah's daughter was the only one playing power politics and today made it as a full minister without tutorialship of a deputy minister.
So don't expect Nazir who is being paid more half a million RM per month will be attracted to even be appointed as the Finance Minister! What are you talking about? Prime Minister? Absurd and pure speculation!
this is my take on the 3 jokers:-
ReplyDeleteZaid : What a sore loser and a quitter. You quit UMNO when things doesnt go your way. You quit PKR for the same reason and you quit your own Party also for the same reason. You are a big fat cry baby. You try so hard to tell the world that ur success has nothing to do with NEP when the whole world knows in the past almost all big govt deals went to ur firm.
Nazir: Wow. Now you are the true elitist and aristo. Just dont waste your time trying to justify CIMB success is attributeable to you. Yes it is attributable to you. You are the factor for CIMB for recent success. However it is not because of your skills and knowledge, but it is because of the apparent connection that you have. Which is a very influential one. And again everyone knows before the rise of Najib's, big govt financial deals went to Maybank, CIMB only get awarded with big govts deals after Najib took over the govt. So dont be deluded.
Lim Guan Eng: The spinmaster. The world's biggest hypocrites. You gave me a good laugh when you talk about people's speaking their minds and commending them for their so-called bravery. It tickles me knowing that you led a party that always issued gag orders, and your ex party members complaints about they receiving death threat for speaking their minds. And one more thing, is your party the one that endorsing a version of 13 May events that blaming and accusing Tun Abdul Razak for orchaestrating the tragedy? you.endorsing.Tun Razak's son? you endorsing the son that staged 13May? what an irony.
Mana ada CEO bank yang tidak sukakan riba? Bagi mereka semuanya mesti berfaedah.
ReplyDeleteAs a matter of record, Nazir is a brave and principled man. At least he know his stuffs as banker and now even has an opinion or two that Utusan, Zul, Noor and the cow-woman together with Locky, are a bunch of brainless has-been who only talent are their big fat ugly mouths.
ReplyDeleteDah Tak Ada Ideas keRocky?
ReplyDeleteYou think this is Deep Interior Africa where a Tribal Leader can just appoint Anyone?
Come Onnnnn!
Mustapha Ong,
ReplyDeleteIts not bru who wanted Nazir's as Prime Minister. He just disposing his nature as a Journalist by highlighting what Zaid Ibrahim wanted.
To elevate Nazir's as a Prime Minister, of which bru himself questioned the sincerity of such statement from Zaid (that Zaid trying to pit Nazir's with Najib)..
So, I do not understand your motives on questioning Rocky Bru's message in this post?
Salam Dato,
ReplyDelete1. Remember "bastardization"? What do you expect from this gang? We are 'bastards' if we believe in them, like the 'one' guy said. All about money and their future. None other.
2. For Nazir against his father's will. Semoga Allah SWT merahmati roh Tun Abdul Razak.
bro,
ReplyDeleteoutspokenness & speaking their minds
maksudnya
keceluparan & bercakap fikiran mereka.
maksudnya kalau cara nazir boleh diterima untuk keceluparan & bercakap fikirannya maknanya kita boleh celupar & bercakap fikiran kita dalam apa jua hal.
jangan kalau memihak kat dia boleh kalau tak memihak kat dia tak boleh.
usabukata
This Nazir is just trying to be clever. He thought that nobody know about his role in MAS-AirAsia share swap and now POof AirAsia X. He is just a bloody wheeler and dealer. He is not looking after the interest of his brother but bios own. CIMB gave too much loans to AA so he needs to ensure that AA could fly all the time. Good for nothing fella.
ReplyDeleteLatuk:
ReplyDeleteWhich melayu got the chance to lead a truly 1Malaysia bank ? Why do you think they call it the Cina India Melayu Bersatu Bank ?
Can Nazir and CiMb become what they are now without Najib? Or without the Tun Razak great legacy?
ReplyDeleteAnswer: No
At least they will never get the footing and privileges they needed to begin with. And of course, some govt businesses to sustain the growth.
And as always they think they are what they are because of how intelligent and hard working they are.
Dato'
ReplyDeleteI think about time that you stop blogging about PM and his croonies, consultants, advisors, wife, brothers, kitchen cabinets, et all.
Najid is almost history. He still believe he is the most popular person in the country. Dia tak akan percaya bahawa Melayu dah meluat sangat dengan dia. If UMNO don't topple in next AGM, then Pakatan will swallow him alive in GE14. The less we heard about him the better for the country.
Let us talk about how the malays can be united, be it under PAS, PKR or a reborn UMNO. This will make more sense to all of us.
we had it enough,anger dan hatred are everywhere within everyone..bullbuffalo shits for the 2Ns.
ReplyDeleteis it really wrong when some one stand up against some moral issue eg like racist comments ?
ReplyDeleteI wonder where you guys put your brain ? inside sewerage system kot ...... Can even define black or white .
If one day a China man from China kill a Malay man in China , but the Govt praise the Chinaman , because the Chinaman is born in China and not the Malay man how the fuck do you fell ?
You make me sick of you , Rocky Bru.
melayu, kalau mau maju memang susah. setakat condemn obvious racism pon dah kena label kacang lupakan kulit la, opportunist la.
ReplyDeletefor an honest hardworking melayu who wants to succeed based on merit, the odds are stacked up against u. the non malays will always look down on your crutched upbringing and think youre inferior, and the malays will never stop sucking your blood every inch you do actually rise. kesian. solution? ali-baba lah kan senang
Bru
ReplyDeleteIt's strange why you are whacking Nazir Razak.
And this canard about forgetting one's roots. Priceless!
Who gives a flying fig about all these agendas when the Maybanks, CIMBs, Telekom, Tenants, MAHBs, MASs etc are being forced to go out and compete, not only within Asean, but within Asia and beyond.
I don't recall Bru dispensing words of wisdom on economics, globalisation, competitiveness, productivity and other humdrum topics.
No, it's far easier to rabble rouse, stoke up emotions, play up sensitivities and expound an us-versus-them philosophy.
Bro,
ReplyDeleteSaya tak membaca komen-komen di atas,dan di sini saya rasa terpanggil untuk memberi pandangan yang mungkin kritis pada mana-mana sudut yang dilihat sebagai kritis. Saudara kita Nazir Razak adalah daripada golongan aristocrat Melayu yang tidak pernah Susah dalam hidupnya. Itu adalah faktanya. Maka apa-apa pandangannya adalah pandangan orang senang dan tidak ada niat jahat tetapi barangkali kurang menyelami hati orang Melayu Secara amnya. Berbeza dengan abangnya sebagai seorang Perdana Menteri walapun daripada golongan yang sama, mungkin kurang bersetuju dengan pandangannya. Orang korporat, berpelajaran Barat seperti Nazir berasa tiada masalah untuk membidas orang Melayu pada amnya apabila mengeluarkan kenyataan memnyokong kenyataan Azran! Berbeza dengan abangnya Najib yang membidas orang Cina sebaik sahaja keputusan pilihanraya diketahui sepenuhnya. Salahkah orang Melayu hendak bersuara untuk hak orang Melayu dan begitu juga orang Cina sekarang begitu lantang menuntut hak yang bukan haknya. Saya juga mahu juga mendengar suara Nazir berhubung penghinaan kepada Duli Yang Maha Mulia Yang Di Pertuan Agong. Agaknya barangkali Nazir yang agaknya sudah Bosan dengan kritikan terhadap Azran mula bersuara mempertahan his fellow brother di dalam bidang korporat. Surat khabar Utusan yang tidak berbahasa Inggeris agaknya terlalu mundur hendak mempersoalkan sahabatnya! Nazir sebahai Ahli korporat tiba-tiba sahaja menjadi seorang pengkritis umpama Ahli politik dalam perdebatan ini. Apakah muslihatnya? Saya percaya beliau adalah termasuk dalam golongan orang Melayu yang melihat perjuangan kebangsaan Melayu sebagai perkara yang remeh dan seharusnya berfikiran terbuka seperti orang Barat. Namun demikian mahu juga saya mendengar pandangannya bagi orang-orang Cina yang begitu rasis terutamanya DAP yang disokong oleh media Cina. Secara peribadi saya setuju dengan rakan-rakan yang tergaru-garu kepala dengan ayat Apa lagi Cina Mahu? Nazir dan keluarganya atau kelompoknya peduli apa dengan hati dan perasaan orang Melayu dan eloklah dia berkata apa lagi Melayu mahu!
Nazir Lan Chow is a mediocre!
