Last night, we arrived KL. Look like my hometown, very familiar. I still can drive around. I still remember that I drove a car called Perodua Kencil which was bought under DR Ko Ko Gyi’s name, who is my best friend, senior from my University ( IMM), mentor. He helped me to buy under his name since I was unable to get a car loan. I useed that car from 1997 till 2000 over 80 K Kilometer only in KL.

More Than 2000 Myanmar Nationals and Malay Muslims Protest Oppression Of Muslims in Myanmar

November 30, 2013

Bernama reporters forgot to bring their spectacles, shortsighted could not see and count properly.
Star Newspapers and Non-Muslim popular online news portal are RACIST and failed to report this news. Now only I understand that why the Malay Muslims need to protect their race and religion from the racist others.

Or may be they R just used to the formula…if their boss’ function X10. if others divide with 10?

This is about protest against INSULTING ISLAM. I think Bernama reporters forget that they themselves are Muslims and Myanmar Buddhists are insulting Islam. Tun Dr M’s very good hard hitting sarcastic remark on Malay’s indifference on Atrocities against Myanmar Muslims and Rohingyas had sadly no effect on them.

Principal turns down US green card to stay with school

By Koh Hui Theng The New Paper Wednesday, Dec 12, 2012

On weekends, volunteer teacher Saw Closay, 36, crosses the Causeway to hold English and Maths classes.

The ustaz says it’s a challenge finding professionals who can teach subjects like English or maths and convincing parents to let the children stay in school during weekends.

MALAYSIA – For the Myanmar refugees fleeing bloodshed and violence at home, getting a green card to settle in the US is a dream come true.

But when the chance came in August, this man turned the offer down.

I have proposed UNHCR a similar BUT much better and wider plan for all the refugees around the world

September 15, 2013

I have proposed UNHCR a similar BUT much better and wider plan for all the refugees around the world, about 5-6 years ago.
I sent through e-mails, registered posts and by-hand to one of the Malay lady officer who visited my clinic.
They never show any interest nor any response at all. Seem to fall on deaf ears and there was a deafening silence from the UNHCR.
Shame to you UNHCR officials!
I hereby wish to request my friends in high places or who have good connections, please forward my suggestion to the UNHCR HQ.
I will search and give the links of my proposal below as comments.

Warning to Myanmar Foreign Ministry and Myanmar Home Affairs Ministry about Human Rights violations

August 28, 2013

Warning to Myanmar Foreign Ministry and Myanmar Home Affairs Ministry

C.C. Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR)

Dear Sirs/Madam,

Today my brother-in-law and sister-in-law went to Myanmar Embassy in Kuala Lumpur for their Passport renewals.

After accepting the application forms, paid the renewal fees, when they went back to collect their Passports, they were asked about the relations with me, Dr. Ko Ko Gyi. When they replied the truth, their application forms were returned and fees they paid were refunded and told that as they were related to me, there is an order from Naypyidaw to band all the services including Passport renewals for all of my relatives.

This is a very clear violation of Human Rights as that couple never do or write or say anything against the Myanmar Government. They do not even have Face Book or Blog or Twitter accounts.

By the way, my FB account was locked because of Myanmar Government officials and its Cyber-troopers’ false reports.

I cannot understand when the criminal mass-murderers ABSDF – N officials could be even allowed to enter Myanmar, may be they were moles planted by former Myanmar Military Intelligence Force to penetrate and destroy the Student Rebels.

Although not fair, we could understand that even if they revoke my Passport but it is a clear case of Human Rights Violation if they take action on my family or my far relatives like in-laws who have done nothing against Myanmar Government.

Regards

Dr. Ko Ko Gyi @ Abdul Rahman Zafrudin

Refugees will get the work permits from Malaysian Immigration Deprtment

July 12, 2013
On the illegal Myanmar traders at the KL and Selayang wholesale markets, Ahmad Zahid said the issue had to be tackled by all quarters so that the welfare of the public, traders and workers were protected.
“Ninety per cent of the workforce at the markets consist of Myanmars whose services are badly needed because locals do not want to do this type of work. Not all of them have valid UNHCR cards. Most do not have any identity documents.
“My ministry is coordinating with UNHCR on this matter, if they qualify as refugees, we will get the Immigration Deprtment to issue them work permits,” he said.

Salaam and Thank you YAB Tun Abdullah Badawi,

I heard from those who attended the IAIS Forum yesterday, that you have let them known that Malaysia PM YAB Datuk Sri Najib had intrusted his cabinet to use all options available to help stop violence attack to Muslims in Myanmar..

Dr Chandra Muzzafa (Just world) told TAAB that both former 2 prime ministers (TDM and TAAB) must talk to current PM to change attitude of Malaysia government towards Rohingya and other Muslims refugee in Malaysia and to give more opportunity, recognized them and subsequently let them settle down in Malaysia.

It was very encouraging for all the Muslims from Myanmar.

TQ again

May Allah bless you and all of the Malaysians
