Brought along my emerging ‘uncle energy’, but fought back the urge to say, “Back in my day…”

Huge thanks to Architects of Diversity for inviting me to speak at one of the sessions of Progres25 and to share the stage with fellow political activists from different parties.

We might have differing origin stories, but Malaysia is our home.

We have to learn to live with one another as we are held together by the common bonds that make us Malaysians. (1/3)

I plan to post this ABC News supercut video of Trump calling Harris and Democrats "fascists" (and "communists"!) everytime I see a Republican on TV whining about Trump being called a "fascist" by the left.

Oh, the hypocrisy! Oh, the gaslighting!

Merdeka should also mean freeing ourselves from the influence of bad-faith actors.

Recently, a few bad-faith clout chasers tried to overshadow our National Day celebrations with their selfish acts including the State Assemblyperson for Manjoi, Perak (1/4)

It's welcoming to see a gov that welcomes protest as a part of our democratic culture.

In the past, Dataran Merdeka was heavily guarded like a fortress. Today, Msian rights to convene were respected, despite differences.

We must continue to defend & uphold this right!

Without making the case of how championing democratic principles, social justice, and a spirit of solidarity among citizens and fellow human beings can bring good outcomes to everyone - it’s almost certain that far-right elements would pervade and take hold.

Nick Adams boasted that he drove a waitress out of her job just because he disagreed with her cause! How can he be so cruel and heartless?

The US Ambassadorship to Malaysia is not a paid holiday posting for any loyalists nor any Tom, Dick, or Nick.

It's for a professional diplomat.

In his speech, DAP Youth vice chief Iskandar Fareez said the US ambassador to Malaysia position should be awarded to a diplomat who is capable of handling relevant tasks.

"It's a reminder to those involved in the confirmation process that, look at Malaysia, we are not happy with this choice," said Mr Fareez.

Nick Adams is no diplomat. He is known for his Islamophobic, anti-palestine, and misogynistic antics.

Join us in a peaceful assembly in front of the United States Embassy on Friday, 18 July 2025, at 2:00 PM to submit a formal memorandum protesting his nomination as the US Ambassador to Malaysia.

"It’s all been a big hoax. It’s perpetrated by the Democrats and some stupid Republicans, and foolish Republicans fall into the net, and so they try and do the Democrats’ work," Trump said.
Trump Calls Allies Demanding Epstein Files ‘Stupid People’
President Donald Trump lashed out at fellow Republicans who have been calling for his administration to release documents related to disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, casting the files as a distraction spun up by Democrats to undermine his agenda.

Under Trump, USA is blatantly bullying its way to become a global imperialist.

While bragging about all the big beautiful deals he didn't make, he is cluelessly driving his own country towards the cliff of stagflation

Sharing my call-to-action on a recent @bfmradio.bsky.social interview:

"Don't wait for anyone. Get started, get involved, stay engaged, and let’s build the Malaysia we want—one that is democratic, just, and compassionate for everyone."

Bill O'Reilly, as usual, bending over backwards to stroke Trump's ego.

One of many examples of bullies we face out there. High time we shun politicians & influencers who stoke divisions for personal gain.

Instead, work together to face common challenges as a nation.
