Personal thoughts of Wan Saiful Wan Jan

My Debt to Labour

The Conservatives had produced this wonderful widget to calculate the impact of Gordon’s policies to each individual citizen. Suddenly I have a HUGE debt!!!

Kongres PKR

Just finished watching the speeches at Kongres PKR via TV Antara. Anwar’s was the last one. Of course, there are many interesting things that was said. But what attracted my attention was the fact that they played “The Final Countdown” as the background song to Anwar coming onto the stage and leaving. A good choice.

On PAS

I had the pleasure of hosting Dato Kamarudin Jaffar MP (PAS Sec-Gen) and YB Dr Syed Azman (ADUN Batu Buruk) over the weekend. I am sure info about some of the meetings will be in Harakah soon. Later tonight I will be hosting the former Secretary of Dewan Ulamak Pusat. Exciting.

Of course, with all the Pas figures coming over, one cannot avoid but to talk and think about the party.

Clearly PAS is now in a very new territory. The party’s recent decision to accept non-Muslims as members I think will ruffle feathers, particularly among fellow “puritan” friends – ie: those who say people joining PAS, or party leaders, must have pure “fikrah”, untainted by the fikrah of UMNO, JIM, ABIM, Tabligh, etc.

With the new decision, we could possibly have non-Muslims holding leadership positions in the party. How can the party stay “pure”?

And that is not yet adding to the fact that PAS Vice President, Haji Mohamd Sabu, spoke approvingly at Socialism Malaysia 2008. Many moons ago socialism would be considered as very near to sesat. Now….??

I wonder what the real “fikrah” of the party is…..

Am I looking at racism?

I read in Malaysiakini a few days ago that there have complaints from various political quarters. Perhaps I could understand if the complaints were from those in nationalist political parties. They are nationalists after all.

But for some people claiming to be from Islamic organisations to also complaint is a disgrace. Pure and utter disgrace for the religion of Islam which teaches its followers that the definition of justice is “putting the right person at the right place”.
