cakap cakap...Steadyaku47 writing gutter stuff? Surely he can do better?

Late last night, a ‘friend’ from days of old, asked why I am now going down to the gutter in writing about the royals and politicians who have already brought disrepute to themselves and the nations by the things they do?

Surely, he reminded me, steadyaku47 can do better?

He asked that I use my blog to talk about the things that Malaysians need to do to better themselves and bring about the changes we need by raising ourselves to another level that will show, to the royals and corrupt politicians, that Malaysians deserves better. Better Sultans and better politicians. Wouldn't this be a better and more positive way of doing things rather than to talk about illegitimate daughters of Kings and about Mr Sultan Down South (yes he did say Mr Sultan Down South) who thinks that Bangsa Johor and Negri Johor is beholden to him?

Then he went on to say that the feudal society that we live in cannot change in the next decade or two. Malaysians have grown up with a feudal mentality. The rakyat is the vassal and the rulers and politicians are their master. And there is nothing I can do about it. Change will come, but gradually. So, Hussein, he said, you have to be positive and deal with that reality through the writings in your blog.

He is too much my senior in life for me to argue with at way past midnight - so I told him that I will think about it…and that if I am so moved, I will write about what he said the next day…and he can read about it…the next day.

It is already the next day…and this is my response.

I have had to go down to the gutter level where some of the Royals and most of the Politicians are now wallowing in. Wallowing in greed, in arrogance and hubris and in the excrement of what greed and arrogance made them into : despicable human beings who do not have a shred of decency or grace within themselves.

I do so because I want to write about what the so-called ruling class in Malaysian have now become. I want to write about Najib giving millions to not only the late Sultan of Pahang, but to anybody he thinks he can buy so that he can continue to take billions for himself. I want to write about Sultans who enjoys watching “Tiger Shows” while having a glass of kopi O. I want to write about Mr Sultan Down South whose sexual exploits while he was TMJ was described as “having had a truck load of cunts during his younger days - not the Class C lorries, but the Class A lorries”. I want to write about the current TMJ who thinks himself to be God’s gift to women, to Bangsa Johor, to Football and to Malaysia….and not necessarily in that order. He tells us that he is a Brigadier General…while in reality the only Army training this self-proclaimed ‘Brigadier General’ had ever had was to be in charge of the Horse Stable while he was with the Indian Military Academy at Dehra Dun. Yep he was just a stable hand, and now he thinks himself worthy of putting on a uniform of a Brigadier General. Ptui!

To do all this, I need to get into the gutter with them…as distasteful as that is to me, I will do so because the rakyat needs to know what kind of despicable people these feudal leaders really are.

But when I am done writing, I can crawl out of the gutter and be myself again - a 75 year old man living out his life in Melbourne who writes about his beloved Malaysian as.often as he can. But these feudal leaders - politicians and Royals have their Groundhog day every day in the gutter among their own kind. One day soon…very soon…we will bury them in that same gutter…and until then, when needed, I will visit that gutter to write more of these greedy, arrogant and useless feudal leaders that we have plenty of, down there in the gutter.

In closing, I can only say this to my 'senior' in life....maybe one day Sir, you might like to follow me down to the gutter and see for yourself how these despicable human beings live. And maybe you might agree with me, Sir, that calling them human beings is an affront to other human beings like ourselves. Enough said.
