Open letter to Hamidah Osman, Perak State Assembly member PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 01 July 2008 21:02

Tota takes to task Perak State Assembly member Hamidah Osman for her derogatory and insulting remarks against Indian Malaysians. He reminds her that Malay culture has many elements borrowed from Hindu and Indian linguistic and cultural traditions.

Let me state that I have no quarrel with the Malay community which is talented, works hard and is able to stand proudly on its feet. In fact, I owe my life to a first-class Malay cardiothoracic surgeon and my hearing was restored by a Malay ENT Specialist with great skill and expertise.

Coming to Hamidah Osman, the assemblywoman for Rapat, your reference in the Perak State Assembly about whether to kill the snake or the Indian when you encounter both (with obvious reference to Hon. Speaker Sivakumar) is rude, crude and uncivilised to say the least. If not the whole Assembly, at least the Speaker should have crucified you.

It would be too much to expect an ignoramus like you to know that the snake and Indian joke was concocted by Pale Face when they were blissfully committing genocide to exterminate the poor Native Indians from the face of the earth. A dumbo like you would not know that Malaysia, indeed the whole of S.E. Asia was part of a Hindu Empire. There is sufficient archaeological evidence to prove this. The Malay language owes much to Indian languages, like Sanskrit and Tamil, from which it has borrowed liberally. Words like raja, bumi, waktu, cakra, putra – to name a few – are from Sanskrit. Many Tamil words, with slight alteration in spelling, are widely used in BM pitam (same in BM and Tamil -meaning bitter or bile), pudina (BM)/puthina (Tamil) (mint) and the sin you committed, penganiayaan (BM)/aniyayam (Tamil). In contrast the number of Arabic words is few and far between except for borrowings from the Holy Koran. The Malay bersanding is from Tamil culture; in Arabia where Caliphs ruled, there was no crowning of rulers, so the crowning ceremony of our rulers that we witness on television is very Hindu in nature. The popularity of Hindi movies among the Malays shows an inner link that cannot be suppressed.

So Hamidah Osman, you want “to kill the Indians”. Malaya’s economy was already globalised at the beginning of the 20th century when tin and rubber were our biggest money earners. While the Chinese worked the tin mines, millions of Indians slaved in the rubber estates. Countless numbers of them died from malaria and tuberculosis – the two deadly diseases then. Much of Malaysia’s early development and progress was due to their sacrifice.

After humiliating the Indians, true to Umno’s Ketuanan Melayu, Malay supremacy and Malay hegemony philosophy, will you, in keeping with your Umno leaders’ aspirations, want to similarly target the Chinese?

A bodoh like you will not know that it is an acknowledged and accepted fact that 90 per cent of taxes in the country are paid by the non-Malays. The NEP, designed to eradicate poverty regardless of ethnicity, was hijacked by Umno, which masqueraded as champions of Bangsa and Ugama, and robbed and plundered the country’s wealth to enrich a class of Umnoputras, of whom you are one. The fact that the income differential in highest in the Malay community compared to any community in Asia is a stark fact confirming the manipulation and exploitation of the Malay community. The taxes go to support leeches and parasites with handouts and subsidies. A dimwit like you probably believes Ghani Othman, MB of Johor, who claims that Malays belong to a superior race about whom Marina Mahathir posed the question: What is so great about people who survive on handouts and subsidies?

I wonder where you will find the money to rehabilitate the drug addicts, rapists, pedophiles, Aids sufferers, incest perpetrators, corrupt police and civil servants and Mat Rempits.

  • Thinking Aloud  - Is there a point to them?

    I cannot believe that after sooo long, another person thinks she's better than the lot. It's really interesting to see how these people manage to beguile their constituents and then magically get rich, aristocratic with the blood of God running thru their veins no doubt.
    That's another great point, nobody knows the Hindu civilizations of the past even conquered this side of town, and who do you think is to blame for that? Would the "indigenous people" suddenly question their origin? their point of existence? Or does everyone still believe they simply popped out from the ground that is the Peninsular. HAHA
    whatever futile disrepute they pose only goes to show their action plan on how best to breed stupidity.
    Rest easy folks, pretty soon they will all leave this country and proclaim themselves westerners as well. Heck half of em are already.

  • chrisckv  - Hamidah & Najib

    Hamidah is unsure what to kill...a snake or the Indian.
    Najib (wanted) to used his beloved Keris bathed with Chinese Blood!
    Rosmah (allegedly wanted) to see some C4 firework!

    What are all these in common? ....UM NO cultured arrogant violent ... lifestyle!

  • DAD lEE  - God must be blind

    These people only care for their unearthly goals,everready to forgo the
    racial harmony and the peace of
    the human race!

    If only the god is not blind,take them
    to task!but unfortunately the god is
    blind.

  • George Zachariah  - Hamidah

    Hamidah Osman - Your infamous quote at the State Assembly only goes to show your intellectual capacity..or lack of it. Suggest for the bloggers to capture this and recirculate just before the next elections. If your party does not discipline you first , take your chances at the ballot box.
    In fact we should do this for all our "politicians" from both BN and PKR so that they feel more accountable to the electorate.

  • Jaya  - Racist

    hamidah, wats ur problem now?

  • Malaysian  - Peace

    We just need peace in this country. Pls think before say anything to others.Let's live peacefully.What are we are fighthing for? To show how arrogant we are, Pls remember nohing we going to bring with us when we leave this world.

  • indian malaysian  - mr

    I do not think that we should go overboard in reacting to Hamidah Osman's remark about the snake and the Indian. The remark was racist and stupid. We do not have to respond by insulting all Malays. This is a time for all decent people to come together whatever their ethnicity. And we can only come together if we show respect and courtesy to all. Remember Ghandhi.

  • goofy  - Racist

    Its pathetic after more that 50 years we are still a bunch of racist. It is (people) like Hamidah give the overall Malays a bad name. I have a lot of Malays friend who disgusted with Hamidah. People like her should be send to the mental asylum.

  • Vivekanandam  - She doesn\'t know,what she is talking about!

    Hamidah Osman: Her remarks: does it warrant a reply? One can\'t change the stupid people,ever. Her level of thinking seems to be primitive and prejudiced; a prejudiced individual (could even be) a mentally retarded individual; this is another form of disability. I recommend,she should consult a good Psychiatrist.

  • once a malaysian always a mala

    People like Hamidah Osman should not be honoured with my response to her inane and irresponsible quotes.

    I think all responsible and sensible people of ALL ethinicities should give this woman and her ilk the wide berth now and at the next opportunity with the next ballot box. Now that's a challenge.

    True there are many Malays and Muslims at that who are honourable and peaceful people who are able to see such moronic attitudes and behaviours.

    Islam is faith that values ALL people and people like Ms Osman ARE ONLY there for their benefit alone and no one elses. For her to claim to be a Malay/Muslim representative is a lie and travesty of justice. It needs to be challenged at all times.

  • Penyokong Melayu

    Why when you all stucked with problems then you use Islam as an example of good teaching to follow as stated Islam is faith that values ALL people. You are not believers of Islam and ALLAH. Following are Surah Kafirun in Al Quran to tell the unbelievers:

    (1)Say: O ye that reject Faith!
    (2)I worship not that which ye worship,
    (3) Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
    (4)And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,
    (5)Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
    (6)To you be your Way, and to me mine.
