Police arrested Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim an hour before the 2pm deadline as they feared that he would not show up according to Federal CID director Commissioner Datuk Mohd Bakri Zinin.
1. What is fear? Fake Evidence Appearing Real .... looks like the police force had this fear factor
rule their actions instead of acting based on the prevailing laws of the country.
2. By virtue of the police force knowingly aware of Datuk Seri Anwar's movements, it can be said that he was being followed and with such intelligence, why the fear?? Would this apply to everyone the police force had belief someone they fear? It could be anyone of us Malaysians
out there!
3. Most interestingly, "Anwar wouldn’t have made 2pm deadline" press statement by Deputy Home Minister Datuk Wan Farid Wan Salleh before the Bakri Zinin's statement shows that
the actions could have been politically driven from the Government. Yes?
We are only looking from the view of Malaysians at large based on news reports but could be much different in actuality. This is Malaysia today under the 2010 outgoing PM.

Anwar's arrest
While Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim arrest was imminent from the day the sodomy report was lodged against him, the actions leading to this arrest left much questions to Malaysians and international observers as to whether Malaysia had really gone into a police state where they can grab you off the street anytime and anywhere.
No proper documents of arrest and police report were not made available to the Anwar prior to police request for statement. The manner 30 UTK personnel with balaclavas and sunglasses needed to arrest Anwar whom we Malaysians believed were high handed which are usually reserved for highly wanted armed criminal. What has this de-facto Opposition Leader has?
And this statement "Anwar wouldn’t have made 2pm deadline" by Deputy Home Minister Datuk Wan Farid Wan Salleh reflects the Malaysian leaders playing "God" and ready to rewrite the person's destiny. It only left us Malaysians wonder as who are the fools whom had actually re-elected these arrogant and lame ducks into power again?
Anyone who lives in KL knows that the number of motor vehicles on the road had reduced drastically ever since Bodowi increased the fuel price. The travelling time between Segambut Dalam to IPK via Jalan Duta would not take an hour unless the police starts listening to "made belief intelligence reports" and start setting up roadblocks.
The Government could have seen that the debate last night and the messages in between the arguments put forward BY Datuk Seri Anwar were too much for UMNO goonies!
If Government leaders are clean i.e. no laying of C4, sexual harrasment, corruption and/or any wrongdoing why should they be afraid of Anwar? You only fear when you are incapable and the "devilish" desires outweigh their integrity and responsibility to the nation.

What the world learnt from Anwar-Strawberry debate
The much anticipated "Hari Ini Membentuk Kerajaan, Esok Turun Harga Minyak" debate between Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek reflects the experience politician against an rookie Minister, whom not only had a saliva foaming mouth but had gone into retrospective character "assassination" instead of the debate topic. And Strawberry had challenged for a re-match!
In a match, you only had one chance and if you blew it, you are the loser! Period!
Requesting for a re-match is akin to the attitude of Malaysian Ministers of "tidak apa" in tackling the country economic and grievances to a lack of thought and detailed analysis before execution. This is exactly the trademark of a flip-flop Government of Malaysia today starting from the PM. Now we know why we had lost Pulau Batu Putih i.e. weak arguments! Worst scenario could be that the Malaysian delegates had actually argued on Middle Rocks which they were awarded by the ICJ.
Judging from Strawberry's performance during the debate and if he were to represent the Ministers (or UMNO leaders) to lead the country till 2013, Malaysians had better be prepared for an economy roller coaster ride. It clearly reflects the lack of depth and charisma of a leader who is capable to champion the rights of Malaysians.
We had wanted the Prime Minister or Deputy Prime Minister to be pitted against Anwar in the debate but we Malaysians had to accept that they had just shirk off their responsibility as leaders of the country. In other words, weak leader with "no balls"!
In totality, Malaysians would agree one thing for certain that Strawberry was a washout in the debate and the winner had been Malaysians who now realised the quality of Ministers leading the country after the "screw-up" by Syed Hamid Albar and Zainuddin Maidin (Zam) previously.
Would the world seat up and respect Malaysia of today? Also, will this Information Minister suffer the same fate as his predecessor?
And interestingly enough, Petronas had made a handsome profit of RM61bil profit benefitting from fuel price hikes and went on to declare a special dividend of RM6bil which left Malaysians wondering whether the rakyat would be the beneficiary or ultimately landing in the hands of projects claimed to be benefitting rakyat but carried out by cronies.
Could yesterday's debate be Anwar's last? His arrest today which he had predicted during the debate yesterday would prevent him from being a YB again in Parliament for the next 20 years!

What Parliament Demonstration?
El Nino and global warming is causing changes in world weather patterns while Malaysian political climate had been equally hot off late and does not seem to cool down any sooner since the March 08 Tsunami.
Lately, accusations, police reports and Statutory Declarations (SD) affecting leading Malaysian political brokers including Attorney General (AG), Inspector-General of Police (IGP), de-facto Opposition Leader, Prime Minister (PM), Deputy Prime Minister (DPM) and supporting cast comprising Private Investigators, a prominent blogger and a purpoted "sodomy victim" with the list adding on as each week passes by.
In the heat of events surrounding the uncertainty of the Government lawmakers ability to face the Opposition onslaught coupled by internal factions within UMNO, had "paralysed" the Government machinery into a defensive status.
The police force on the other hand, are facing integrity issues of corruption, power abuse, manhandling public during street demos/protests, Altantuya Shariibu's case, rising crime rate and many more. The public confidence in the police force had been significantly affected and with crime rate expected to rise due to the recent price hikes, the police had got into their own self created nightmare of a "Monday July 14 Parliament Demonstration", in reference to the no-confidence motion against PM. But, many Malaysians felt the roadblocks were meant for the possible arrests of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
The bad dream had caused the police scrambling to manned roadblocks on roads leading into the Kuala Lumpur city since 2pm on Saturday with their made belief July 14 Demonstration. It has left the general public beyond imagination as to how the police force or rather the Government had induce traffic jams around the city and indirectly causing unnecessary burning of fuel. Such a waste of time and resources!
Prior to the July 6 rally in Kelana Jaya Stadium to protest the fuel hike, police had declared that they are carrying out joint operations for emergency with the military. Is this an indication that;
(a) the police, military and Government are hiding some general public information,
(b) police are incapable of fighting crime or maintaining public order or
(c) military rule would come in force?
Whatever it is, the latest police report lodged by UMNO member Johari Ismail as reported by Rocky Bru is certainly another dash to the image of the Malaysian police force.
This is where the nation is slowly falling into a state of paralysis with the prolong political instability where the PM, in setting a bad precedent, succumbs to pressure and forced to provide "gula-gula" as how the former PM, Che Det puts it.
Is the police force championing the security and safety of the Malaysian public or serving the political needs of a certain political master or "cult political party"?

Hey, what happened to the ex-Minister sexual harrasment case?
With all the "hoo-hah" settled down on the ex-Minister (who send off Malaysia's first space tourist)reported for outraging the modesty of a female promoter in a Kuala Lumpur 5 star hotel in April 2008, we Malaysians believe the AG and Police have not forgotten about this case.
It will be easy for a case like this to be swept under the carpet and claimed it is closed amidst the political dramas surrounding Malaysia these days.
News can be forgotten but animal behaviour such as in this case cannot be left alone and being a leader, he should have set good examples for all Malaysians. That's when he had consumed more alcohol hingga "mabuk" (drunk) and just forgotten the life principles.
