4 noteworthy reasons why I find Mat Sabu amusing

Following the insensitive remarks made by Mohammad, also known Mat Sabu, government’s insecurity towards the possible long-term consequences and public’s comments have been occupying the front pages of daily newspapers these past few days. For some reason, I find these days’ newspapers much more enjoyable than before.

My friends and I have merged into serious and deep conversations on the matter of the cowardice and stupidity of the freak, so-called Mat Sabu, this lately. We might not have the expertise to talk about the politics as we are just about to finish our foundation of law in a few weeks to come but discussing about the subject helps us stimulate our minds. So I like it.

I like stimulating thingy.

Thus, I would like to put the points that we have ever come out with into words. To be exact, into my own words. Here we go!

1. Because of the one freaking book.

September 6, 2011 – News Straits Times.
“Book Supports My remarks”
Ahmad Fairuz.

Mohammad or unfashionably called Mat Sabu (2011, as cited in Ahmad Fairuz, 2011) claimed that he did not make the insensitive remarks baselessly as he came out with them from reading a book published by Yayasan Warisan Johor called Pengukir Nama Johor. It has been confirmed that the book is a compilation of articles written and edited by a range of editors who let the historians and experts to interpret their writings.

That was just a summary of the article.

First of all, I thought he was one of the heads of PAS. Parti Agama Islam Se-Malaysia. He is supposed to be practicing and be more acquainted with the teaching taught and urged by Prophet Muhammad. If he is not, then would you still want him to be the next president of Parti Agama Islam Se-Malaysia? Are you out your mind or something?

"Go in quest of knowledge even unto China." - Prophet Muhammad S.A.W

With regards to the saying, I bet he has heard and even advocated other people to study and gain knowledge as much as one can. We are to seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave.

Because of the one freaking book – Pengukir Nama Johor, he dared to emerge with the remarks. I wonder if he really has finished reading the book. He appeared with a conclusion without a consensus from other leaders of same party as articulated in “Pas Leaders Stay …” (2011), or even the experts. Does not it clearly show he brought about the issue emotionally and selfishly? Does not that show our religious heads are as corrupted as they ever claim we are for supporting the government?

Additionally, he did not quote the part of the book he claimed was supporting. Okay, he might not have had the book with him at the time he admitted that to the press. Even so, he would have remembered a saying or two from the book for he was so excited and keyed up with the book! The quotation had not had to be perfect or exact as in the book. Paraphrased quotes with citation would do.


2. The presence of nationalism

September 6, 2011 – The Star.
“Mat Sabu insists Mat Indera was a fighter”

He asserted that credit should not solely go to Tunku Abdul Rahman and Datuk Onn Jaafar, the founder of UMNO in the fight for independence as the twosome merely assisted Malaysia to gain independence as UMNO was the only political body that was not banned by the British then.

I wish I could say this to Mat Sabu:

Dude, why-lah on this earth are you so narrow-minded? Did you ever attend a school or play truant instead, and loaf in the toilet? Tunku Abdul Rahman and Dato On Jaafar went to Britain to gain independence as the representatives of our nation. The independence gained was not only for the members of UMNO, but for the nation as a whole.

Fine, you said that Tunku Abdul Rahman and Datuk Onn Jaafar were rightly freedom fighters but other freedom fighters should also be grouped with them. Come on, it is impossible to name all freedom fighters one by one kot! Like how impossible it is for Dato’ Siti Nurhaliza to name her fans who made her who she is today.

Tunku Abdul Rahman and Datuk Onn Jaafar were just the representatives of all freedom fighters. Even if Mat Indera was really a freedom fighter of Malaya (which the truth is he was not), he would have been proud of them and felt relieved with the independence gained.

If one is not racist, one will feel proud of what one’s leaders have achieved for the sake of their citizens.


3. An obvious fact

7 September 2011 – News Straits Times.
“Insensitive Remarks”
Tunku Abdul Aziz

The writer of the letter sent to NST wrote that:

“He said he did not use the word ‘communist’ to describe the attackers. The fact is they were communists.”
I couldn’t agree more with the writer. Isn’t it obvious that they were communists when they appeared with the ideology of communism? Communism practitioners are communists. -.-“


4. Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

Claiming that the real heroes were the communists, not the polices for the polices were the British officers is akin and similar to wishing the communists had won and taken over the land to be colonized, as though the communist had ever promised us an independence. We all would have not been born had the communists won. Neither would Mat Sabu.

It would have been like keluar mulut buaya, masuk mulut naga.




In brief, I would like to let you know that terrorists love publicity. Terrorists aim the media to promote their hazardous ideologies. Thus, do not point the finger at other races if Malaysian Muslims are hated and called terrorists.

Because you know why.
