Sultan Terengganu next to snub PM?
Malaysiakini (subscription reqd) - 15 Mar 2008
Signs are emerging that the Terengganu royal household is also set to follow the heels of the Raja of Perlis in appointing a menteri besar who is not the Barisan Nasional's choice, paving the way for a possible direct confrontation between the royalty and the federal government.
This morning all 23 BN state assemblypersons from Terengganu were called up for a meeting with the state's Regency Advisory Council.
The council representsTerengganu's 11-year-old regent Tengku Muhammad Ismail, whose father Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin is the present Agong of Malaysia.
The incumbent menteri besar Idris Jusoh - who is also Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's choice to lead the state - was not invited for the meeting.

Mr. Prime Minister,
Do you hear them?
Do you hear the people sing?
Do you hear the song of angry men?
Do you hear the music of the people who will not keep silent any more?
Do you hear the beating of the people’s hearts?
The beating of their hearts for justice is louder than the beating your police can give.

Quotable Quotes
"My fellow voters, vote for democracy. Vote for a strong opposition. Vote to deny a two-thirds’ majority. Do this and you will see the difference when the next parliament meets." - P Ramakrishnan
"only Malaysians who are capable, hard working, bold and scrupulously honest would be allowed to serve in positions of responsibility. Those who are inefficient, incompetent and most importantly, corrupt would be held in absolute and utter contempt by society" - Raja Nazrin
