PKR Hickup - Rakyat Worry

Many had called up to ask what happen to PKR. Even, when I enjoyed my Sunday walk at Bukit Kiara, friends had stopped by to ask me about the situation in PKR. They worried that the "turmoil" in PKR may cause the failure of 2 parties system; which its growing agressively since #308 .

It shows that the rakyat are concern, although they are not the decision makers, to decide for the future of Pakatan Rakyat and PKR in specific. One may say, the real workers (means political workers) are only 6 to 10% of the whole memberships.

Many people wants change. So does the leaders in PKR. Difference in opinions and thought cost the sparkle mungling about the various position in the party. Hisham. Rais mentioned that PKR had yet to secure the truth democracy in Malaysia. I tend to agree with him. There is no such thing fairness and justice, yet equal in politics.

Accordingly, only 8 to 10% are willing to construct the democracy roadpath. The rest is not committed. What about the other 90%, then? I guess most of them follow the old list. My opinion, there is no such thing called "clean" in politics. Its only happened there is power struggle. Naturally, I said the,y do what must, not what want

Moreover, the constructive demand for new leadership is not happened now. Its trickering about the Zaid and his influence, and perhaps there is something not right, More so, it marks the initial pundering of the arena.

The Zaid Magnima

Not long ago that most people have acknowledged that Zaid Ibrahim had injected strong and convincing additive to Pakatan Rakyat - the Opposition Front that may one day drive in the PutraJaya.

Most people then, Zaid will help to create the positive elements in there; such that he was appointed as the candidate to run in the By Election of Hulu Selangor Parliamentary Seat. Everything went on towards the tone of supporting him because of his personality and opinions. Looks good, when there was statement that make sense to evacuate the sense of justice and fairplay in the judiciary and political stage.

Come this guy, by the name of Zaid, whom he had fought and disagree with the Abdullah Badawi lead BN Government then, and hence opt to resign from the cabinet as minister; Zaid played down a fanstastic, sour and spicy road show to create a new sentiment and new flagship. Then it sailed to the Pakatan Rakyat and parked at PKR jetty. The leader of PKR ponded in and hugged in without considering the consequence now. Indeed, PKR needed that to increase its bargaining power; whilst attempted to fill up the vacum then. The whole exercise is political power reengineering. Zaid chose to join PKR and PKR leader wanted him because they had "common enemies" rather. Zaid was then appointed Chief de Mission to set up the Pakatan Rakyat - registration as political party....hence this move on well until recently.....because of the party election....

Siding the possibility of difference in opinion and objective, both had found there were lots of unsatisfied scene. Applying the norm of working together, the spirit of non conversion of bad and down side of both parties were not reviewed properly. Less people except few senior politicians, had determined to visual the objective "To Putrajaya"; should review the possible down play by it. Massing with the situation, PKR leader chose to let the 'event control him' then 'to control the event'. This cause the set back now and then.

Then, when Zaid announced to join PKR, he mentioned that he joined because he can contribute to upheld the justice and fairplay...........

And recently, Zaid quit because of political downplay..........!!!!!!!
one may read over the article from Malaysiakini : http://malaysiakini.com/news/148677

And who know, one day he might join another party again and again ......
My opinion, both Zaid and PKR leader were not wrong, and they failed to charge a positive "qi" because, they were making efforts and expecting each other to perform what expected but "failed". Both side experienced what not expected now. Its just because of putting of wrong effort at the wrong place and wrong timing with the wrong people around.

Perhaps, I think Zaid and PKR must learn "I-Ching", the art of life and change. They must choose the right moment and right people , and speak the right tone, perform right body languate; and the right behaviour, and most importantly the right timing......hahahahahahahha

道德经 第 8 章 - 上善若水 - 再解

上善若水。水善利万物而不争,处众人之所恶,故几于道 。居善地,心善渊,与善仁,言善信,政善治,事善能,动善时。夫唯 不争,故无忧。

此章细 述老子以 水 来比喻道。他说水能够造福万物,而自己则不争权夺利。它处于众人所不喜欢的环境及所讨厌的地方。

居善地:在谋事时,选择据集及居住的地方时,必定要方向正确,地理位置良好及环境适中。

心善渊:我们得要修心养性 ,把心情调到如清水一般的境况。心水之清则能把事物看得更加透澈,而这也是 “无”的状态。

与善仁:在此时,我们可要找适当的人来从事工作。当做决定时,选择的人应当实事求是,以仁为本。这时我们就从中 “有”的情景。

言善信: 在工作过程当中,领导们必须得到员工及下属们的尊敬与服从。他们也要得到其他机关的负责人的认同;也得到供应商青睬及银行的信用。最重要的,他们也必须得到他们的上司的支持及关注。诚如所言,领导们若以诚实及正确的心态去处理事件,那么他们将会得到良好的效益。

政善治:善于行事的人是不会留下垢事及手尾。谨慎的人说话时不会留下垢话让别人批评。精于术数的人是会备有周详的计划及完善的谋略。善于谋事者都不会浪费时间做那些无谓之事。在现今的社会里,政善治 是 全面品质管理(total quality management) 的同义词。

事善能:在从事工作时,领导们必须要了解员工们的个别能力,从而把各个员工分被配到各有所长的岗位。他们自己本身也从事他们的强项。一个优良管理的单位通常都会把它的员工们训练成全面的知工。

动善时:在谋事时,能够把握正确的时空,就能掌握着主导权。时空是时间于空间。精于术数的人都能够准确的预测事情发生来龙去脉。他们都会聚其所能,选择 一个最适合的时间去引动其适当的空间。有心的人都会选择对他们最有利的时间去处理他们的问题。

总的来说,在这章里,老子所表达的心法是当人们在谋事时做到 “不争”的情况时就会 “无忧 ”即那是没有忧虑的境界。所以当我们谋事时,必须要找到一个良好的据集地,一个能让我们发挥最大潜能的所在地,一个能得到最佳经济效益的地方。


这当中,成功的谋事者都 必须拥有清水般的心境,以仁待人的心态,以诚为信的处事方向,全面品管的管理制度,能为匹配的人力资源管理方式 以及 审时度势 的 空间掌握本能。 那么,谋事者就能够到达没有竟争者的境界 – 那是 “不争”的情况。

此时,谋事者就会“无忧”, 意即当谋事者把竟争对手远远的抛在后头而谋事者又冲陷到另外一个更高的境界时,他们就不会忧虑到对手的竟争。而那时,谋事者只会面对着 “自争”的境界。

所以,优秀的谋事者会把自己的心情调理到如同 “水”这样的完善。

2010年 - 产业价格飙升的来龙去脉

雪隆的某些社区 的产业价格 平均上升了30% (年对比)。有几个主要的原因遭成如此。

自从308 过后,雪州新政府停止随便拨地。前朝政府的随意及贱价变卖土地遭成了过多的屋业发展项目。这使到市场面对"供过于求",开发商则为了销售额就展开了削价战。一轮削价战后,有些开发商因价格卖的太低,就想办法减低成本(这包括偷工减料)。有些无法逞下去者被逼中止项目。2008年后,这些停顿的项目逐步复工,使得市场的信心又回复起来。这是第一点。



民联政府作出重大的决策,而不再随意拨地。而且大臣也宣怖某些旧社区将会被重建,以便得到更好的经济效益。这无形中又抬高这些旧社区周边的产业,使到产业价格以骨排般上升。这是第二点。



2008-2010年是雪隆产业开发的转折点。以前的开发点是从薄利多销且注重价格便宜,现在的方式则着重于卖点 ,的品味及销售策略。现在的产业越贵就越好卖。这是第三点。



民联的地方政府议员由各成员党及NGO组成。他们都比较注重环保,也不会给于商家及产业开发商们的方便,也不因金钱的诱惑而给于超指标的批问。 2008年过后的批文都活现着人文社交的产业开发提案。这无形中提高了产业的价位。这是第四点。



另外,这几年建筑材料的价格不断上升。这使到建筑成本上升。很自然的产业的价格也随着上升。又加上有很多经验丰富的外劳已经被遣送回国,而遭成有经验的劳工短缺。开发商得要付更高的成本去应付这些联邦政府的的不利民正策。这又把产业价格推高。这是第五点。



308过后(2008-2009),当时因政局还不稳定,投资者排徊在产业投资而不敢进场。当一决已经稍为稳定时,投资者在2010年则再度大手笔的进场。这也使到今年的价格突然的上升来。这是第六点。



尽管雪隆的产业价格比起其他州高,但如果比较其他国家的大城市,还是相对的便宜。这意味着还有上升的空间。这造成外国的地产商都先后陆续进驻吉隆玻(尤其是KLCC一带的产业)。这也引起链锁反应,吉隆坡周边地带的社区都飚升起来。这是第七点。



雪隆的土地已经出现短缺现象,所以目前所开发的项目多数是高楼共寓单位。 而平房的新项目又 “少至又少”。无形中现有的平房成为了抢手货 (尤其是八打零社区一带)。这造成现有平房的转手价飞快的上升。这是第八点



目前的联邦政府对这城市的陆路交通运输都着重于汽车。因为其它交通设施(如LRT, KTM) 都不发达,人们只有在吉隆坡附近一带居住。这也形成了很大很大的的需求量。新的社区已经开发到连接其它周边市镇如万绕,加央,务垃港,巴生,加埔等等。政府的欠缺及不先进的公共交通设施开发,遭成了这些市镇的房屋价格也上升起来。 这是第九点。



另外一点最重要的是,马来西亚还是一个新兴国家。其中,人口的结构还是偏向于年轻的一群。其中,年龄少于45 岁者超越70%。而且从人口已经达到 三千万。每年雪隆的人口面对以6% 的平均率在增长着。可以想像到,房屋的需求量是非常逼决 (尤其是雪隆一带)。中央政府根本没有去想办法去解决如此严重的问题。它们把这些问题丢会给州政府。面对这些问题,州政府只能用土地来换取较便宜的廉价民房,以供给低收入的一群。其实,联邦政府必需要拨款,而州政府则拨地,由私人界去开发。这些措施在之前没有做到。这使到房屋需求量只升不跌。这也造成了各种社会的问题。



房屋价格问题是永远跑在大市的前面。如果联邦政府只在喊口号,而没有真正的以实事求是,且把房屋的问题丢给其它团体,雪隆将来会面对更加多不必要的社会问题。可以想像到的,我们的下一代将面对超贵的房价。城市的人将会成为房屋的奴隶,他们将会把超过一半的收入作为房屋的开销,到时吉隆坡将拥有众多的城市现代奴隶;这可是一个很恐怖的时代。而这个时代已经开始了,呜乎唉哉!!!!!!!!

试解 - 道德经第 38 章 - 后段

道德经第 38 章的后半段:“夫礼者,忠信之薄,而乱之首。”

[换句话说,当不以仁义之心而以礼相让的心态去为人民谋求福利时,
那么它会得不到人民的支持,也得不到其党员们的忠效 。
它们也失去别人所给于的信心 与 信赖,而这也是叛乱的开始]

马华没有以仁义之心去处理 华社的问题,而以礼让之心去对待它的巫统老大。
最终也失去民心。

愿大家以马华的失策作为我们的借镜。
我想民联各成员党及其党员之间都会有各种不同形式的争吵。
这种争论和争议都是很真。
马华的方式则以礼貌至上(就表面上是很好,里面则另怀鬼胎)

比起国阵,民联成员党的党员们都相对比较自律,和蔼,
不摆架子,以仁制仁,以义对态,私底下则以礼相待对方。
我相信根据这样的情景下去,民联将会取代国阵,问鼎中央!!!!!!

上德与下德

道德经第38张有写:“上德不德,是以有德。下德不失德,是以无德。” “德” 继之于“道"。“德”有“上德” 及“下德”之分。

"上德”是内在的,实质的,无形的,自然的。这种费形式主义的“德” 其实是真真的大“德” ,“上德” 纯粹素朴,虚无自然,至诚不妄,无心作为者。

“下德”是外在的,表面的,形式上的东西。“下德”是有意作为,故意彰示其德,做了好事只怕别人不知道。“下德”处处显示为很有“德”,其实还算不上“德”。
...
国阵,在很多时候都故意喧耀,无中生有,表面上做到“和蔼”及
“礼让”,实则言而无信。 国阵已经失去了其主体,没了目标,基础已无,忠信已薄。
他们唯有以钱财至上作为他们的唯一斗争目标。

反之,民联则应以顶天立地的心智, 摄取其厚实,弃其薄华,
惩奸除暴,济困扶危,顺天应人,出于自然;
那么,这国家才有希望,人民方能安居乐业。
哈哈哈阿哈

上善若水

道德经 第8章:“上善若水,水善利万物而不争。处众人之所恶,故几于道。居善地,心善渊,与善仁,言善信, 政善治,事善能,动善时。夫唯不争,故无忧。”

此章以水喻道,也说明进道之人所应具备的品格。水之体性,不于他争, 水善养万物,只问耕耘,不问收获。
人心总是由私心杂念,七情六欲之烦恼,而水静则清澈葚然,无色透明。。。。。
