Yes, we speak out against the Sultans -- we, who defend the Monarchy from its enemies. But we speak not because we are treacherous. We speak because we love the Monarchy and wish to save it from itself.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Our Comments:

1. The author wrote "However, in that same breath, Malays will say they are Malays first and all else second". Not all Malays are like that and we certainly are not like that.

2. The author wrote "And this is what makes the Malays most complicating animals". Do not denigrate the Malays, the Malay Rulers are Malays and we are also definitely Malays. Do not spit into one's own face.

3. Nizar is traitorous to the Sultan of Perak. So, anyone who supports Nizar to be traitorous to the Sultan of Perak is also traitorous to the Sultan of Perak. There is no two ways about it. The author needs to seek His Highness's forgiveness.

4. The author wrote "There are not many Monarchies left in this world. Even Australia wants to dispose of its Queen. About half the Monarchs live in Malaysia, which has ten". Do not equate the Malay Rulers with the other Monarchs of the World. They are not the same. The Malay Rulers are the Heads of Islam in their respective States. This is also same for Brunei and other similar Muslim countries. As we have said many times before, they are the Vicegerents of Allah s.w.t. on this Earth, however fallible they may be.

5. We greatly appreciate the author's love and loyalty for the Malay Rulers and for his efforts to safeguard their positions since 20 years ago. However, it is improper for the author, mind you we are only talking about the author, to criticize the Malay Rulers openly. There is a better and wiser way to do that. Furthermore, although we had no choice and we were not ready 20 years ago, the author should not have attached any strings when safeguarding the Malay Rulers. We demand sincere loyalty always, as shown and proven by Hang Tuah.

6. Well, our simplified version of Hang Tuah's predicament of old is like this. The episode of Hang Tuah being sentenced to death by the Sultan of Malacca was already destined as something that the later generations would be able to learn from. It was also a test for all and sundry at that time.

Hang Tuah is a loyal and sincere follower of the Sultan of Malacca. Even at the time of losing his life, he was still loyal and sincere. He loves his Sultan more than his life. During his and his friends learning with Mahaguru Adi Putra, they were told of this coming incident already. So, Hang Jebat already knew that one day he would be traitorous. Nothing in this world could have changed his fate. That is the true foresight of the Mahaguru. It was also a test for the five of them, being pupils of the Mahaguru.

The Taming Sari Keris is no ordinary keris. It has been destined with 'Sakti' to protect the Sultan and his family. Whoever carries it will be invincible, in so far as to protect the life of the Sultan and his family. However, when Hang Jebat had it, he became traitorous to the Sultan and this had caused him to ran amok, not because of himself so much but because of the Keris. Anyone who unsheathe the Keris without permission from its rightful owner/bearer/keeper or is not the rightful person who can unsheathe it, he will definitely ran amok. This is even more so if this person is traitorous to the Sultan. Nowadays, if anyone does not believe in this fact, try and unsheathe the Keris and see for yourself.

So, it not a matter of who is(are) the hero(es) and villain(s) in this episode. It is about the genuine truth, love, loyalty and wisdom.

Best Regards.........
