Obama, for change

'We have to have a government that works for ordinary people. We've got to be able to bring the country together so we have a working majority for change. We have to break down some of the ideologically driven polarization that prevents us from taking practical steps to make the country more competitive and to get opportunity to people.'

ஒபாமவை போல நாட்டின் குடிமக்களை அரவணைத்து செல்லும் ஒரு நேர்மையான வெளிப்படையான தலைவர் @ அரசியல்வாதி மலேசியாவுக்கும் கிடைத்திருந்தால் சிறப்பாக இருந்திருக்கும். அதிபர்/பிரதம மந்திரி போட்டி வேட்பாளர்களில் யார் தகுதியானவர் என்பதை மக்கள் மத்தியில் விவாதித்து & நிருபித்து, பிறகு அந்த மக்களால் தேர்ந்தெடுக்கப்படும் நடைமுறை நம் நாட்டில் இருந்தால் சிறப்பாக இருந்திருக்கும். என்ன செய்வது? எல்லாம் காலம் செய்யும் கோலம்..

U.S. to Attempt to Shoot Down Faulty Satellite

U.S. to Attempt to Shoot Down Faulty Satellite
Published: February 15, 2008

Military officials laid out a plan to shoot down a spy satellite before it tumbles to Earth carrying toxic fuel.The military will try to shoot down a crippled spy satellite in the next two weeks, senior officials said Thursday. The officials laid out a high-tech plan to intercept the satellite over the Pacific just before it tumbles uncontrollably to Earth carrying toxic fuel.

President Bush ordered the action to prevent any possible contamination from the hazardous rocket fuel on board, and not out of any concern that parts of the spacecraft might survive and reveal its secrets, the officials said.

The challenging mission to demolish the satellite on the fringes of space will rely on an unforeseen use of ship-based weapons developed to defend against ballistic missile attacks.

The effort will be a real-world test of the nation’s antiballistic missile systems and its antisatellite abilities, even though the Pentagon said it was not using the effort to test its most exotic weapons or send a message to any adversaries.

The ramifications of the operation are diplomatic, as well as military and scientific, in part because the United States criticized China last year when Beijing tested an antisatellite system with an old weather satellite as a target.

KIMMA not joining PPP says real president

*************************************************************************************
"Indian Muslim" is not new race at all. They origin is India as other Indians in Malaysia. I do not see the point that they still want to join UMNO instead of MIC or PPP. They will not change as Malays overnight! It will be taking light years to see "UNITED MALAYSIA" which has people living with one entity regardless racial differences.

After all the brouhaha over KIMMA joining PPP, now we know KIMMA have a crisis. a person who claims to be President and who was kicked out of KIMMA is the one who made the initial statement.

KIMMA has made its stand that it is ‘100% Muslim party” and would only join UMNO. But isn’t UMNO for Malays only? Why not join MIC? :lol: I mean you can be an Indian and still be a Muslim, no? But you definitely can’t change from an Indian into a Malay overnight. It would take few generations, I guess.

No talks, says the real Kimma head

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Indian Muslim Congress (Kimma) has dismissed news reports that it approached People’s Progressive Party (PPP) president Datuk M. Kayveas with a proposal for a merger.

Kimma president Syed Ibrahim Kader said Amir Amsaa Alla Pitchay, who had claimed to be Kimma president and had approached Kayveas, had been expelled from the congress in February last year for disciplinary reasons.

As such, Amir had no right to act on behalf for Kimma, he added.

He denied the reports which said the PPP president had met Kimma to discuss the merger.

Syed Ibrahim, who lodged a police report at the Dang Wangi police station yesterday, said Amir’s actions had tarnished Kimma’s reputation, and hampered its continuing efforts to gain admission into the Barisan Nasional.

“I had countless telephone calls from Kimma members from all over the country, who were angry over the news reports, ” he said at the Kimma headquarters here yesterday.

“Our stand has been clear in past resolutions made during our annual general meetings. Kimma is a 100% Muslim party and our members wish to join Umno,” he said.
