Syekh Sulaiman Arrasuli yang lahir pada tahun 1871 adalah seorang tokoh Agama, Adat, Politisi, Pendidik, dan juga Saudagar.
Beliau mendirikan organisasi, yaitu Persatuan Tarbiyah Islamiyah (PERTI) pada tahun 1928 yang selanjutnya menjadi salah satu partai dari beberapa partai yang ikut serta dalam setiap pemilu, dari 1955-1971, kemudian Perti bergabung menjadi salah satu bagian dari Partai Persatuan Pembangunan (PPP) sejak pemilu 1977. sebelum wafat beliau berfatwa agar Tarbiyah kembali ke khittah sehingga Perti berubah menjadi Partai Pergerakan Tarbiyah Islamiyah, dan pengikutnya yang lain membentuk Tarbiyah (Persatuan Tarbiyah Islamiyah). Beliau pernah menjadi Ketua Sidang I Konstituante pada th. 1955

Journey of Brother and Sister Part 1
Women of Substance by Barbara Taylor Bradford.It was a while back I read this emotional classic.A poor country girl,unfortunate circumstances fleed to big city London and make it good.
I am not a book reviewer neither my intention to write a sinopsis about the novel or films.Yes,it was also a hit tv series.Worth checking it out.I am sure a few pearl drops would do us good.
My,thought came running on Emma,the main character in the Jane Austen classic,
the 18th.centuary romantic novelist of the 'Pride and Prejudis' and 'Emma'.Those two classic would be a must in-cart for those into the literature.
Co-incidently the name reminds me of my youngest sister Emma in the land of white Dove.She's my most loveable sister of the two other sister of mine.
Her journey to London,England begins way back in 1983 in the pretext of studying.Study she did.I was still at my 2nd.year in the Poly then,we took the flight together on Thai Airways via Bangkok transiting.
Within a nick of a time,believe me we almost missed the flight,while in transitting .
Here's the story.
It was Emma's maiden,flight to anywhere.It was the furthest she's been,from a sleepy hollow Malacca.
At Subang International Airport,I met a dear friend of mine Zaini,she's was based in Bangkok,a stewardess with The Royal Saudi Airline.
She invited us to her apartment in down town Bangkok,knowing we has a few couple of hours before taking the connecting flight to London,Heathrow.
Zaini,gave us a good meal and a proper scrub on my hair by a Malaysian hair sylist in Bangkok.Talking about hair ,you bet mine that scruffy and weird long.Zaini insist that I had my hair cut.I obliged to her request.The visit to the saloon does do me an instant reformation.
Thanks Zai!!!I remember and cherish that!!
She send us back to the airport on time and I still have an hour or so before depart.I check in straight away and linger around at the transit lounge together with Emma.
I was so careless for not being prompt on the time,coz'at that particular era I do not own a watch.Well,it was not hip to wear a wrist watch,such was a hippy altitude then.
I was so into linggering at the transit lounge,I didn't notice or hear,our names was call out on the public announcement.It was merely 5 minutes before the flight take off,then I realised we had missed the flight.
We straight away dash to the entrance gate to catch the flight.
Mind you,the airport in the 80's were still in it manual stage.
One has to embark on the runways,a bus would take us to the desginate plane,but mine,I was so sure the plane to Heathrow was the one I saw at the entrance were already moving.
We make a dash to the runway.Me waving and screaming like a damm fool!!to the flight captain,I could see the captains cockpit from a distance,begging him to stop the plane.
One kind hearted ground staff,managed to radio the captain and after a few interception the moving plane,stilt for us.We board the plane in split second.
When we board the whole passenger in the plane did that stared look on both of us,probably,questioning mentally,how on earth those two 'wogs' managed to board the plane?
It was a smooth ride after the incident but upon safely arrived at Heathrow after the back breaking journey and another incident at the Immigration counter.!!
Indeed,it was the begining of a journey on the road of no return....!!

'The God Father' - Exemption Clause
I pick this bits and pieces quite a while ago,when I first started blogging.
It's 'looks' like a rule,sound like 'the' ruled and 'executed' by the rules.
*****Don Tomasino to Don Carlone :
deep husky voice:'...hey Mike!!! theres to many evil in this world!!'
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
1.I don't use my blog as a space to rant about things I can't handle in real life, or to attack, retaliate or hit out at someone I know personally with whom I can't do so in person.
2.I believe if you can't face up to reality, don't create an alternate reality just so you can be boss in your little corner of cyberspace. What prompted me to write this now? Simply, I witnessed a couple of people who used their blogs as an extension to an argument they had otherwise relinquished in real life. In reality, they said they had spoken their piece and was done with it.
3.In the blogosphere, it seems they aren't actually done with it yet. Too often people use blogs to make themselves out to be the victims in an argument. Last month, there was a similar incident where, again, the person went on her blog and ranted about how she had been wronged.
4.Like I said, if you can't face up to reality, don't use an alternate one to validate youself. It's dangerous to live in an unreal environment and think that the response you get in that space is somehow valid. Your readers and commentors don't know you personally; the only side of you they see is what they read on your blog. Some commentors can be dangerous too. "Oh, don't worry, I've never met you but you feel like an old friend to me, and I know you're not that kind of person."
5.I think ignorant comments like this do not help the delusioned blogger. If you've never met the person, then you've never met that person. Don't think that you know them just by their online persona, because nine out of ten times, people's online personae are the complete opposite of who they really are.
6.It's also dangerous because things become one-sided and no one really knows the truth except to rely on the blogger's version of it. And what's worse is when some bloggers decide to name the people they're ranting against. Then you're involving a person's reputation and if your story is half-true or fictitious (as most of these rants are anyway), you could be held accountable for defamation.
7.My rule in blogging is simple. If I can't handle it in real life, then I don't blog about it. What's the point? What good would it really do? Isn't it akin to talking to myself? If I have a problem with someone, I duke it out person to person, face to face. I admit, I've tried out a bitching space before, but I got tired of it because my problems didn't really go away, and nothing felt like it had any closure.
8.And then there are those who confuse being outspoken with being rude and obnoxious. Hell no, they're not one and the same.
9.Bitching is not being outspoken. It's just angry, pointless and unconstructive ranting. Unless, of course, it's not personal and/or to parody an issue or something.

Pang Chin Hock v PP - An Appeal to Federal Court.
PHANG CHIN HOCK V. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR
FEDERAL COURT [KUALA LUMPUR]
SUFFIAN LP, J, WAN SULEIMAN, FJ, SYED OTHMAN, FJ
[CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 27 OF 1977]
21 AUGUST 1979
Order accordingly.
JUDGMENT
Suffian LP (delivering the judgment of the Court):
In this security case tried in accordance with the Essential (Security Cases) Regulations, 1975, ("the regulations"), the appellant was convicted of the offence of unlawful possession of six rounds of ammunition contrary to s. 57(1)(b) of the Internal Security Act, 1960, and sentenced to death.
We dismissed the appeal and now give our reasons.
First, it was said in effect that the conviction was against the weight of evidence. We were of the opinion that there was ample evidence to justify the conviction and that the learned trial Judge was right in concluding on the evidence that the defence had not thrown any doubt on the case for the prosecution.
Secondly, arguments were raised based on the Constitution. Three points were made.
It was said first that in view of Art. 4(1) of the Constitution which reads:
4. (1) This Constitution is the supreme law of the Federation and any law passed after Merdeka Day which is inconsistent with this Constitution shall, to the extent of the inconsistency, be void." and of the definition of "law" and "federal law" in Art. 160(1) which includes "any Act of Parliament" any Act of Parliament which amends the Constitution, as is allowed by Art. 159, is valid only if consistent with the Constitution, and that any provision in it, which is so inconsistent, is, to the extent of the inconsistency, void.
Secondly and alternatively, it was said that even if amendments made by Parliament in accordance with Art. 159 may be inconsistent with existing provisions of the Constitution, nevertheless the Court should read into the Constitution implied limitations on power of Parliament to destroy the "basic structure" of the Constitution, which, it was submitted, includes the following features:
(a) supremacy of the Constitution;
(b) constitutional monarchy;
(c) that the religion of the Federation shall be Islam and that other religions may be practised in harmony;
(d) separation of the powers of the three branches of Government; and
(e) the federal character of the Constitution.
This list may be compared with the features of the basic structure of the Indian Constitution given at p. 165 by Sikri CJ in
Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala
[1973] SCR Supp. 1 AIR [1973] SC 1461 as follows:
(a) Supremacy of the Constitution;
(b) Republican and Democratic form of Government;
(c) Secular character of the Constitution;
(d) Separation of powers between Legislature, Executive and Judiciary; and
(e) Federal character of the Constitution.
Thirdly, even if the Emergency (Essential Powers) Act, 1979 ("Act 216") is valid, ss. 2(4), 9(3) and 12 thereof are void as they destroy the basic structure of the Constitution.
Thus there are three issues here.
First, do Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution?
Secondly, if Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution, do they have power to make amendments that destroy the basic structure of the Constitution?
Thirdly, have ss. 2(4), 9(3) and 12 of Act 216 destroyed the basic structure of the Constitution and are they therefore void?
To summarise, our answers to the three issues raised are:
1. Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution.
2. Parliament may amend the Constitution in any way they think fit, provided they comply with all the conditions precedent and subsequent regarding manner and form prescribed by the Constitution itself and it is unnecessary for us to say whether or not Parliament's power of constitutional amendment extends to destroying the basic structure of the Constitution.
3. Act 216 is constitutional. Whatever may be the features of the basic structure of the Constitution, none of the constitutional amendments complained of and none of the impugned provisions of Act 216 have destroyed the basic structure of the Constitution.
Order accordingly.

Persoalan Utama penhujahan YAA-YAA,

'A case a day,makes the Dr.go away'
We Are Trully Malaysian here and Forever.
hmmmmmm.........I pick it up from here.
1. We are a unique nation filled with beautiful and caring people.
2. We loved and respected our past and present leaders then.
3. We were proud of our football, hockey and badminton teams who brought us joy, pride and a Malaysia Bersatu!
4. We waved excitedly and proudly when our Sultans and Agung drove past on the roads.
5. We sang Negara Ku with pride and gusto at Stadiums more so when the team was winnning but 10 decibels louder when our Agong came in the rain and sat at Stadium Merdeka to cheer with the rakyat.
6. We obeyed the law, respected the Police and was fiercely patriotic especially against our brothers in Singapore!
7. Our children schooled together, games together, ate together and kept friendship bonds thru many school reunions , hari raya's, Chinese new year, deepavali and Xmas... yummy food..
8.We knew our friends mothers, family and ran away when we saw their fathers come home...
9. We had a Malaysia Bersatu, where is it now...?
10. we all know the answer, corruption, racial emotions, party politics, bad governance from all leaders and authorities, a lack of concern for the man on the street despite all the drama and hype on TV and papers but yet NO actual genuine concern. They called it photo opportunity or party gimmick to please the crowd.
11. Wahai leaders, are you listening? Pray tell me then, do you knnow the price of a kilo of rice, of red chili, of ikan kembong or jenahak? When was the last time dear YAB/TB did you drive personally to fill up petrol or buy gardenia bread froma 7-11?
12. Go back to rukun negara, barisan kita and you will find Malaysia Kita again.

Kasi Hantam Sajalah.....!
Pokok Ipoh adalah sejenis tumbuhan yang terdapat di hutan Malaysia serta di negara-negara ASEAN yang lain. Nama sainsnya Antiaris toxicaria Lesch.
Pokok Ipoh mempunyai getah beracun yang digunakan sebagai racun untuk hujung sumpitan orang asli. Racun ini bertindak dengan serta-merta dan akan membunuh mangsa yang terkena sumpitan. Untuk mengelakkan keracunan kepada pemburu, bahagian daging pada mangsa perburuan akan dipotong dan dibuang. Ciri-ciri daun pokok Ipoh ini ialah hujung daunnya berbentuk tirus,oblong elliptik,pangkal daun berbentuk bulat. Secara umumnya daun pokok ini adalah nipis.
hmmmm..........kamik nak gi kemeh!!!!!!

I took a walk to the Ibu Thein Memorial Muzeum while I was in Jakarta 2 weeks ago.
To those whom does not know who Ibu Thein is,well....she's meet her lord.
She was the Indonesian first lady.The well fed first lady.
Stepping into the gallery,a gallery full with presents, presented to her while she was the first lady.
My oh my......the collection whooophs..wow..amazing collection!!
There is this one massive big huge tree I reckon its Meranti,chengal,Jati a size of a badminton court,a height a guess of at least 50 feet or more being on display.
The very least the age of the tree is 200 years old.
The amazing thing is the tree was dug so deep and it roots are still hanging and left dry for the artistic effect.
The tree branches are left to natural dried.
The miracle of the tree is, someone or rather a group of master craftmen were commission to crave the epic of Ramayana and Mahabrata on the tree trunk.
Yes....full story epic of the Hindu epic story on a tree trunk varnish to absolute perfect craft and presented to the late Ibu Thein as a present for X'mas.
Wow....stepping out of the gallary,reminds me of my beloved ibu's firm advised on my first day at school in 1966.
Wir..,"didunia ini tidak ada tempat untuk orang yang tidak bersekolah".
The master craft who crafted that piece of epic,did really goes to school,
and school he does and no 'University' in this world would dare to challenge his ability of his skills,patience,preserverence,determination on his mastercraftmenship.
But what wonder me most is why cut down a tree to give the first lady a X'mas present????
Was it an ego trip?
The taker would gladly accepts it!
It would be not polite not to accept a present given but I am sure the tree hurts when his trunk was curved for public exhibit.
Might be the tree soul would cried out loud,
'.......look at me,I'm no fool no more than you do?
Possibility to put up a mamak rojak stall beneath the tree with lot's of sotong and cendul pulut, eeek.......!!!
Will be queing together with Ipoh's amoi.
Ayo...ma!! Ipoh mali,ma!! manyak cantik lol!!
That's rakyat's staple diet we are talking about,man!!!!!!!.
I say...Free Birdddddddd.....What say you!!

2.Pak Chik Jamal Muhammad dengan program Kanak-Kanak setiap Sabtu,menceriakan zaman anak-anak kami,walaupun ketika ianya disiarkan saya sudah dewasa,melihat akan kesunggohan adik-adik terhibur dengan program tersebut membuat saya terfikir,sunggoh amat banyak pengajaran.Ia melahirkan banyak bakat yang kini tersuhor,Ella,Mazuain dan abangnya Othman Hamzah yang popular dengan lagu 'Musliha',Gary Gedion pemain drum dan precussion dengan Orkes RTM memrupakan sebahagian product yang diketemui melalui program Pak Chik Jamal.
3.Pak Chik Karim Mohammad,orang Melaka kau!pantun dan gurindam mainan jiwa.Program 'Berbalas Pantun' menjadi medan senda gurauan.Tersenyum simpul bila mendengar pantun 4 keratnya.Mungkin ada diantara participant di programe Berbalas Pantun itu bertemu dipentas,bercinta dan entah apa seterusnya eeek...!
4.Mak Chik Wan Chik Daud,Mahani Ujang.Putaran lagunya dizaman-zamam tersebut penoh nostalgic.
5.Dan ramai lagi,Pak Chik Helan Abu,Di zaman-zaman akhir 70'an dengan bermulanya FM stereo didalam tahun 1978,DJ-DJ baru ujud.Srd.Noramin,Halim Din,Sazali,Omar Manan,Zainal Din Zainal,Mak Chik Prema dengan rancangan Belajar Bahasa Tamil di RMIK merupakan pengerak minda.
Terima Kasih di atas curahan hati.Memori mengamit diri.
Apa yang menjadi tanda tanya bagi saya ialah semasa mereka berinteraksi di udara,menyampaikan dan mempersembahkan kepada kami,mereka berinteraksi tanpa script.
Ianya dioleh secara live and natural,tanpa sebarang unsur pencemaran Bahasa baik didalam Bahasa English mahupun Bahasa Melayu,tidak saperti apa yang terdapat diprogram sekarang adakalanya pencemaran Bahasa ditahap kritikal.
Ianya berlaku disemua program baik distation swasta,lebih-lebih lagi diradio swasta.
Ada-kala sehingga ketahap 'meluat' bila mendengarnya.
Jasa-jasa mu dikenang.Bak kata pujangga kita P.Ramlee 'Tak mugkin dapat dipisahkan antara irama dan lagu'

Hmmm........yes sir,
he sure does, together with his generation he does move us in the right direction.He was one of the early birds in Radio broadcasting during the Beatles hip era via his husky golden voice he taught us those 'solok' guys the proper English,right pronuncation,proper intonation plus the music of Nat King Cole to Bee Gees 'Staying Alive'.He done us proud I am sure his other half and children is dammed proud of his modest achievement.
Very well indeed,I patiencely waits for his weekly radio show every Sunday precisely at 10am for 2 hours.That old faithful A4 battery operated 'Singer' we had at home is mine for that particular hour.Me at that particular hour will be cleaning my white canvass 'Bata' shoes,yeap school the next day,has to be neat and tidy for Monday assembly or else, I get the best 2 or if it's my unlucky day it will be the best 4 from Mr.Kumara Dass at the Cadet Room.
Pick and choose the ammo,he surely do have an ample collection of yessss....'CANES ' I mean,yeap...the one which whack our backside when we had a discipline problems,it landed on me a few times.
Sure do learn my lesson well.
He taught us English via his chats in the radio.
New words and proper grammer usage.I pick it from him.
Listening tentatively to his husky voice every Sunday,the'Kee Huat Radio Show' he was the show host and it did survived a couple of seasons till I am able to write a love letter.
Yes, I learn to write my ever first love letter by listening to his show.
It was the S.W.A.K and the Jeremy era.The sweet face of the main child actor whom ran off with his girlfriend to Venice......alah I forgotten his name.I think it was Mark ...something!It was before Linda Blair and her Excoist mania.
That film really inspire Bollywood to produce another block buster movie of that era"Bobby". Not to mention Hawaii 5-o with that handsome looking Steve Megarrat and his assistent Danny or weekly sit-com 'The Brady Bunch' and that handsome David Cassidy on 'The Partridge Family'.
Me,a 'solok ' guy watching that show? Yes indeed.....!!!
Will be arguing with my sibs if the wrestling programme is on.I know that is not my t.v day then.One t.v for a couple of family to share.
That was how is was then!
Am I bragging about the post independence socio climate?
No not at all,but by back tracking, that is how we learned to sort our present. Anybody who doesn't? so be it!
Why did I write this yeh?
I am not too sure in pronouncing either 'TOKOK or Tokoh'?
That what his blogspot name is!!
Yes he is a Mister to me,
He is no other less our former RTM Blue Network DJ Sir Patrick Teoh.
To me Tokok means rambling, but, you sir... might have thought of probably the manglish meaning ie.'talk-cork' ie. idle conversation.
Tokoh is personality which definately, you has that.
You....a 'Tokoh' to me and a few others of my batch sir...... I can be sure of that!
You sir,you has that charm, inspiring our generation with those soft melody,
yeah... the clean cut sound, no distortion compared to todays MIDI gadget which most of todays musician used.With the aid of 'Cake Walk' a dump fool could sell his CD's at any back lane an claim it original....'inhouse made' lah brother!!!I am talking where music is played in a group.A joint effort of a team producing quality sound.Quality showmanship and quality master piece.There is a diffrence between 'evergreen and classic'.Stairsway to Heaven is classic but Green Grass of Home is evergreen.So do Carmilla by Ebiet that is classic and may more.
I know ...is not rock and roll but something of Lobo or Neil Diamond or Carpenters is 'ok' to our big brother.
Yes, I know our Big Bro is a bit of pain in the ass at times.
Back then, yes I know big bro is watching us.
I remember our big bro has a rubber stamp on Rod Steward 'Maggie Mae' or Stairsways To Heaven' Definate no play air time.
I dont understand why they censor 'The Revolvers'.They were great, instead every sunday we has to listen to the tune Beautiful Sunday,I forgoten the group name.
I am sure if our Big Bro then gave a lee way to our local group air time,I am positively a sure our Artist performersare as good as our regional counter part if not better.They even gave 'Heavy Machine' a hard time.To jazz freak like me 'NO' so call music of jazz in the air time.
Instead we listen to 'Seriosa' a version of todays Pavarroti?in TV2.
We are the by product of what we see,feel,listen and THINK!
No wonder it take ages for us to pick up the pieces?
Well......that was the rules back then.
Your comand of elementary English without any accent,straight and grammatically correct improved our written weekly composition tremendeosly.
During my High School tenure together with Nuruddin, we would sneak to a corner of the hostel block to listen to your programme tentatively.
Believe me sir,Nuruddin is another 'Solok' guy, his solok is much further then my 'solok',he is from Bukit Senggeh somewhere near Selandar our minister of 'Human Resources' constituency.
Belief me this guy he specks the 'Nogori English',but man...his written English is explict,belief me..... he got an A1 for English 121 of MCE 1976.
How do we 'The Solok Guys' pick up the language?
Simple answer...
......by tuning to your radio programme.
Its amazing the radio!! it teaches us to be an avid listerner not a watcher as tv does or what ever gadget we have now.
From the portable battery operated size A4 we diguest your word.
Yes sir the 'Solok Guys' made it,by learning how to learn.
Together with your generation of broadcaster namely Pak Chik Sulaiman Alias,Pak Chik Yahaya Long Chik,Kakak Rubiah Lubis,Abang Nornikman Dadameah,Pak Chik Helan Abu and of course our mum Auntie Faridah Merican,Auntie Constant Haslam,we learn the correct basis English,useage,pronunciation,expression using the correct process of 'Learning how to Learn' method that is 'Shut Up and Listen'
That is how we were taught.
We learn by listening and able listener, we are sir!
Thanks to your team back in the late 60's and early 70's era sir.
I commend you the very least an AMN to our YDPA,sir.
May god protects you and your family and those who does great contribution to the nation,be it DJ's,script writers,programme producers,audio technician,buffer,LP's runner at the Wisma Angkasapuri etc,etc.
Your positive contribution being part of nation building goes notice sir.
Bravo to all the RTM'S unsung heroes.
A Tribute to all RTM'S vet.
Thank you for the bringing my live more meaningful and all the lessons via your mono radio.
Up-Date:
Agak tidak keperhatian sekiranya nama-nama DJ-DJ diRTM Radio 1 dizaman-zaman 60'an dan 70'an tidak disebut akan kelicikkan mereka menjalankan tugas serta menceriakan lagi kehidupan kita.
Nama-nama Ibu Siti Hawa Zain,program diwaktu pagi bagaikan bergema kembali didengung teliga setiap pagi sekitar 6 pagi,mengejutkan kami untuk ke sekolah.Nasihatnya amat mendalam.Motivasi untuk kami,anak-anak rakyat mengejar,melayar sebuah impian.
Harus diingat Malaysia ketika itu masih ditahap pembikinan.
