Here is a piece written by a so called Major and comment further on what i wrote against me
written by Major (Rtd) D.Swami, June 04, 2009
written by wan zaharizan, June 05, 2009
I highly applauded what is written by Major Dr Swami but whether he is what he is, I doubt it. I need to correct certain pertinent thing
"The Communists did not surrender, period. We could have defeated them but then, the Chief of Armed Forces, General Hashim Ali was the brother in law of our "Great Leader". The IGP was Mohd Haniff, can I say,"
This statement is factually wrong because the IGP concern was Tan Sri Rahim Nor not Haniff. And again here "On the 6th January 1956 on a mountain top in Malaya, Tengku Abdul Rahman, John Davis, a senior district officer in the government of Malaya, Singapore's Chief Minister David Marshall and Sir Tan Cheng Lock , president of the Malayan Chinese Association, met Chin Peng". It was in 1955. An army major should not make mistakes in dates and therefore i can be doubtful on his background.

wan zaharizan, you can go to hell with chin peng in the same casket.

1. Secara peribadi, saya berpendapat bahawa pemikiran serta fahaman seperti Wan Zaharizan inilah yang diperlukan dan diingini oleh musuh-musuh orang Melayu khususnya yang kini semakin lantang melalak unutk menjatuhkan kesatuan orang Melayu diatas tanahair sendiri.
2. Saya yakin bahawa orang-orang seperti Wan Zaharizan ini pada mulanya mendapat pendidikan dari hasil usaha dan idea dari parti tunjang negara iaitu UMNO serta mendapat biasiswa untuk mendapatkan ilmu yang lebih tinggi yang diharapkan membangunkan negara serta anak bangsa.
3. Mungkin, keluarga Wan Zaharizan ini juga hidup atas hasil dari upah dan gaji dari kerajaan yang kini dihina dan dicerca kiri dan kanan. Di samping itu, tulisan beliau berhubung dengan pertikaian Chin Peng ini sebenarnya untuk memperlihatkan betapa ilmu yang dahulunya dinikmati dari sumbangan kerajaan yang dihina ini telah dikhianati dan digunakan untuk menjatuh, memburuk serta meruntuhkan kerajaan yang ditunjangi oleh orang-orang Melayu.
4. Seperti mana yang pernah disuarakan oleh Tun Dr Mahathir - "MELAYU MUDAH LUPA". Tepat sekali dan contoh yang paling nyata kini adalah si Wan Zaharizan.
5. Saya pasti Wan Zaharizan tidak kesal akan apa yang telah beliau tulis dan pertahankan disini. Ini kerana saya percaya beliau tidak percaya kepada kisah silam, sejarah asal usul salasiahnya, dosa dan perbuatan semalam. Apa yang beliau amal dan jadikan budaya hidup adalah melihat hari esok sahaja dan menafikan bahawa semalam itu tidak membawa apa-apa erti. Agungkan diri sendiri, pedulikan orang lain. Matinya pun kelak biarlah orang-orang Chin Peng yang mentalkinkannya kelak.
Syabas kepada Dr Novandri atas usaha berterusan menepis segala tohmahan petualang-petualang negara samada yang nyata dan tidak nyata.

Dear Orang kita
Are you threatening me? Is this how a Malay behave? Why Sungai Manik? Were you born during the incident in 1945? In Abdullah CD book he claim it is because of Malay bandits, I do not know for sure but I know Bintang Tiga was involve. There was a massacre there, many were kill, both the chinese and malays. It was the first racial strife to hit Malaya then. Most young only thought about May 13 but even then many of them do not born then.
It was a part of history bloody one no doubt. So you must be about 80 years old now if you leave in that era, I'm sorry i do not fight an old man! Are you the Malay bandit or are you the Bintang Tiga? In law you have committed a murder and murder case are not covered by law of limitation so be careful you might be charge for murder or at least mayhem. Who are you? Why do you hide under Orang kita? Are you a coward? I am Wan Zaharizan Bin Wan Zan, at least please give me your name so I could call you maybe pakcik or datuk. It is a malay thing to give regards to old people.
Now to Anonymous too please give me your name, best I answer you. Hero or Wira is different than Pejuang or Warrior. Our father of independence Tunku in Baling 1955 recognize Chin Peng as such(warrior). That is why( if you have time please read the war records)he was offering an olive branch to Chin Peng. He told Chin Peng that since you and were fighting for independence and since independence would be given by latest in 3 years time than you should lay down your arms and join us. But Chin Peng refuse because he could not receive the terms of surrender! He wants the party to be recognize as it once was in 1945. He refuse to be rehabilitated. Tunku refuse and that's why it fail.
By doing so many communist lay down their arms and return back to the fold and by 1960 3 years after independence the Emergency was lifted. The meeting in Baling was oppose by the British and even David Marshall the spherphadic Jew who was at that time the Chief Minister of Singapore. As for death, many of my died during emergency but it was war then and we accept our lot in life. Wahi Anuar was captured/surrender(depends whom you get it from) in 1951. So if you want to find me leave a note in my blog and your number and I will call you.I am not afraid of Sungai Manik I've been there. Novandri mintak maaf I have to answer them - May 29, 2009 4:21 PM

...Apa slahnya dia balik tetapi dengan syarat2 tertentu. Orang sudah tua sebagai orang Islam dan orang melyu kita di ajak bertertib terhadap yang tua.
sdr. wan,
ironinya dgn mmbwa blik 'org tua" CP kita akan melukakan hati beribu-ribu hati org2 tua x kira melayu, cna @ india.
mgkin bnar spt kt fahmi reza glongan muda skrg dh tak mau bertaut pd emosi & cerita lama. org muda mmg idealistik.
tp kita kena igt yang di kalangan yang menderita tu adalah ibu bapa & dtuk nnek kita. Ini bukan soal beremosi atau mengenang ksah lama.
salahkah kita atas dasar MENGHORMATI PERASAAAN org2 tua yg pernah menderita semasa zaman komunis dlu & keluarga2 parajurit2 yg tlah terkorban utk menolak kembalinya CP?.
mudah untuk kita bercakap kerana bkn kaki kita yg putus @ keluarga kita yg terbunuh.. - May 29, 2009 5:32 PM

Aduhhhh...sedih sungguh baca tulisan cik/encik wan. Kat mana belajar nie.. Sekolah abis tak. Hati org nak jaga, apasal hati pahlawan/askar - askar kite tak jaga. CP telah di beri peluang utk bergabung dgn mainstream. Tapi ia memilih jkn keganasan hanya kerana ieology yg berbeza. Jgn lah terlalu idealistic sampai maruah terjual.

wahai Wan Zaharizan. Anda mmg mangko dah bodoh sombong.Udahlah.Sedarlah anda siapa diri anda itu dahulu.
Anda celik semasa semua kemudahan sudah ada di depan mata.Anda belum pernah rasa sengsara akibat perbuatan komunis yg terlalu kejam dan dajal satu waktu dahulu. - May 29, 2009 10:38 PM

Sdr Wan terconfuse agaknya, dlm mencapai kemerdekaan - ada segolongan manusia yg bencikan keganasan dan sebahagian lagi menggunakan keganasan. Yg bencikan keganasan menang dan mendapat kemerdekaan tanpa pertumpahan darah. Sebaliknya yang menggunakan keganasan, menerima akibatnya dan hukumannya.
Bagi saya komunis adalah pengganas - bukan pejuang kemerdekaan; sama mcm mereka yg berdemonstrasi di jalanan menentang kerajaan yg dipilih melalui kaedah demokrasi; mereka bukan pejuang demokrasi sebaliknya manusia yang menyalah gunakan kebebasan dan tdk menghormati demokrasi.
kedua, sdr wan tdk sensitif - ramai yg masih marah atas perlakuan chin peng dan pengganas komunis - RAMAI. klu sdr tak terlibat, itu soal sdr; tp bagi yg menjadi mangsa atau mempunyai datuk, nenek, ayah, ibu yg menjadi mangsa, kita berhak menolak kepulangan chin peng; sebenarnya kalau boleh; elok jugak klu dpt ditembak chin peng sbagaimana dia dgn zalimnya membunuh org ramai ketika itu.
Kalau sdr tidak merasa marah dgn kezaliman komunis - itu sdr punya pasal - but young person mcm saya masih merasa marah; so kami akan tentang walaupun kami terpaksa mati kerana menentang org spt sdr wan. - May 30, 2009 7:38 AM

I do not know I am dealing with so call intellectual Malay. Maaf then because this issue has been clouded with too much emotion but lack factual account.
Chronology of event. SM Idris of Humanitarian International( If I am not mistaken) brought up the issue of Chin Peng to allow him to come back on humanitarian ground. This champion like all Penangites knows is a Muslim, President of CAP. Whether he is a Malay or not I do not know but the fact remains he can be a Malay according to the constitution.
It was pick up the Gerakan Head of Penang Dr Tan. It was brought up in the cabinet meeting last Wednesday and Tan Sri Koh has to explain the reason for the statement. It was accepted by the Cabinet and why can't we accept it. i have accepted the verdict so why can't you. Why is it you harping on Dr Tan and not SM Idris? Are all of you that chauvinist? I am racist when it comes to being Malay but i will never be Chauvinist like you and this what you get with half past 6 Malays who fly off the cap without understanding the issue at hand. Don't hide behind pseudonoym, reveal yourself like I do. As for what is my qualification, well enough to say I completed my primary education and I am still a student until I die. Knowledge will stop only when i die fools stop acquiring knowledge and Kamu semua bodoh kerana hanya tahu mengata tapi tak tahu hujung pangkal! - May 30, 2009 11:23 AM

Doc, dengan izin...
wan,
i've written short article on this issue, and yet i have only some petty questions that require clarification (considering you've said orang lain as "Kamu semua bodoh kerana hanya tahu mengata tapi tak tahu hujung pangkal!")
Firstly, if really Chin Peng fights for our independance, how about the deaths of armed forces of Persekutuan Tanah Melayu’s army (who clearly are not British) and civilians, especially the villagers (who were clearly the innocent party in this rebel against the British)? Moreover, Malaysia gained independence on 31st August 1957, why must Chin Peng and PKM continue the war against Persekutuan Tanah Melayu?
Secondly, If the war was to serve the purpose of removing the British (the very same reason why Japanese being fought too), why should the local people also being killed? Can someone give a rationale answer to justify the killings?
Thirdly, a review on Chin peng's writings mentioned this:
“Significantly, Chin Peng comments on the linking of the struggle of his party to events in China. He was to become a supporter of the Chinese in the later Sino-Soviet dispute..".
Question is was his fights really for Malaya, Persekutuan Tanah Melayu or China?
These are the three simple question that a smart alec like you can answer for those who is not as knowledgeable as you are.
Kindly, indulge us with your knowledge...

With reference to Malaysiakini's report on "Create a 'heroes and traitors' museum", the person Omar Mohd Hashim of the Malaysian History Association (PSM), is living in his own deluded world. Yes, as a former soldier from a very well blooded regiment , I too stand with other soldiers on not allowing Chin Peng to settle in Malaysia.
I too have friends who were maimed and killed during the insurgency. I say Osman Mohd Hashim is deluded, because he says, "This was the first time that an independent country had managed to defeat the communists". Well, we did not defeat the Communists if one were to read and understand the treaty, see image here. The treaty is titled " Agreement Between The Government Of Malaysia And The Communist Party Of Malaya To Terminate Hostilities", which is a historic document. The operative word here is "Cessation of Hostilities". I cannot and did not see the word surrender in the document. We did not defeat them, we could have decimated them to the last man, if not for the capitulation of Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.
It states in Para 3.2 " Members of the Communist Party of Malaya and members of its disbanded armed units, who are not of Malaysian origin, may be allowed to settle down in Malaysia in accordance with the laws of Malaysia, if they so desire". It is an international treaty. Our so called Great Leader, Mahathir had this treaty negotiated without a referendum from the Malaysian people. But then he was a Dictator, surrounded by sycophants and apple polishers.
On the 6th January 1956 on a mountain top in Malaya, Tengku Abdul Rahman, John Davis, a senior district officer in the government of Malaya, Singapore's Chief Minister David Marshall and Sir Tan Cheng Lock , president of the Malayan Chinese Association, met Chin Peng. The Tengku asked this of Chin Peng, that the Communists would only be allowed to return, if they surrendered, disbanded their armed forces, and abolished the Communist Party. After their surrender they would each be subjected to a loyalty investigation and would be restricted to a specific area of the country, but once investigated, most would be allowed to enter political life again so long as they did not pursue a Communist line. Said Chin Peng: "I and my people will never submit to investigation."
Singapore's David Marshall responded by saying this: "As a human being, I ask you to realize that there are 7,000,000 people in Malaya and 3,000 Communists. I appeal to you to think of their welfare and to accept the sacrifice of your pride in the mild humiliation which you state is implied in the investigation of the loyalty of M.C.P. members before their release."
Chin Peng responded to this : "To report to the police means surrender." Snapped the Tengku: "I will never give in, so you must give in." Replied Chin: "The amnesty means surrender. Surrender means humiliation. We will not accept surrender at any time. We will carry on the struggle to the last man." The Tengku was a warrior at heart and not a quitter.
The Communists did not surrender, period. We could have defeated them but then, the Chief of Armed Forces, General Hashim Ali was the brother in law of our "Great Leader". The IGP was Mohd Haniff, can I say, I blame him for capitulating to this dastardly parchment? The Army which bore the brunt of the fighting was one of the most experienced counter insurgency fighting forces, in jungle warfare, I may be so bold as to add, in the world. We could have totallly defeated them in the same way the Sri Lankans did to Velupillai Prabhakaran
We would not spend our time and energy discussing Chin Peng's return today, nor would our "Great Leader" have embarked on a policy of marginalising certain segments of the Malaysian population, with his agenda . He capitulated for expediency, to push his agenda speedily. He did not want the CPM to be thorn up his, 'where the sun does not shine'. So who did actually surrender? He went against everything the Tengku wanted as far as the CPM was concerned. The treaty was an international treaty, I ask you to decide on Malaysia's honour.
In his reasoning, Omar Mohd Hashim fails to discuss the double standards? See images of our enemies feted by Malaysian VIPs. See more double standards here where an enemy of ours, Shamsieh Fakeh and her family who applied to the Malaysian government for permission to return to the country from 1985onwards. People like Omar Mohd Hashim of the Malaysian History Association (PSM), should just shut up, I know there are many like him, who push forth their own agenda, who ignominiously have no problems with double standards. Oh, I forgot, no one must question the special rights? Right? You would not know a real traitor when you see one. The answers are only too obvious.
The message to him should be stop insulting the intelligence of the soldiers and civillians alike. Read here for a sanitised version from Malaysiakini.
