Rally against war criminal. Do your part by signing in this petition!
To all Malaysians and residents therein: COME!
Let us rally together against the accused war criminal, Tony Blair, a man whose most significant achievement has been the construction of a mountain.
“Mount Blair” is no ordinary mountain. It is a mountain of decaying, charred, bombed, bulleted and butchered corpses. Blair proudly stands atop this mountain, boasting without hesitation as he did so recently, that he would duplicate the feat of it’s construction – should the chance present itself again.
Tony Blair is set to come here and turn his ‘achievement’ into cash. He’s scheduled to speak at the National Achievers Congress in Sunway Pyramid 23-25th April. For most of us, we will be within just a few Km distance from this killer of millions. A man whose acts dwarf those of say, Geoffrey Dharma, Pinochet or Vlad the Impaler.
Lets send a message to Blair, the organisers of this event and indeed the world, that the time for killers has passed and can be tolerated no more. Lets struggle for peace NOT pieces, lives NOT lies, civility NOT carnage, law and not banditry – even if not for ourselves then for our children and other peoples children!

If you agree, please sign it. Don’t be shy, be upstanding!
Importantly, forward information about it to your friends, your neighbours, work colleagues, relatives, Church/Mosque/Temple leaders, NGOs, members of residents committees, shopkeepers, restaurant staff, teachers, students… Anyone you can!
Praise be to God 191 other people have signed so far! Thank you. I’m aiming for at least 200,000 signatories, which is only about 15% of those whose lives were terminated thanks to Blairs plots.
Please show your support.
Mike.
SABM Sama-Sama Sabah & Sarawak
Sabah, Sarawak, Semenanjung (or Malaya). Three components of the Federation of Malaysia – sama-sama – that’s what was agreed in the agreement. Didn’t quite turn out that way, did it? What happened? And more importantly, where can we go from here?
Saya Anak Bangsa Malaysia seeks to lay bare the facts in its coming Roadshows in Kota Kinabalu and Kuching next month. If you’re Malaysians in these cities, we’d be happy if you could take time out and give us a listen.
Sama-sama also speaks of camaraderie, togetherness, solidarity. We need this. As big a dose as we can muster. We’re in darkness, fear, and apathy. We lose perspective, we think we’re alone but we can emerge. There’s the promise of light if we work together, stay together, live together and want the best for each other. Together we can turn the light back on.
Let’s. Bersama-sama.
