Macam macam yang kita dengar akhir akhir ini. Ada yang kata sabotaj, ada yang kata protes, ada yang malas nak berkata kata kerana terlalu banyak yang nak dikomen. Pendekata, keputusan PRU12 memang memeranjatkan. Pulau Pinang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor jatuh ke tangan pembangkang. PAS pulak kekal di Kelantan.
Kalau dulu dalam pilihanraya yang lepas, bila BN sapu bersih, pengundi dikata bijak memilih, tepat & sesuai. Tapi sekarang bila pengundi ubah pilihan mereka, sesetengah mengatakan mereka emosi, tak fikir panjang, sabotaj dan macam macam. Tapi kalau kita fikir sedalam yang mungkin, selain daripada rahmat yang tersembunyi, mesej yang diberi memang cukup jelas, pengundi mahukan perubahan !!!
Perubahan apa yang pengundi mahukan sebenarnya?????? Ubah Perdana Menteri??? Ubah jemaah kabinet ?? Ubah kepercayaan pada parti ??? Ubah kroni??
Mesej mengenai "perubahan" ini cukup lantang ditimbulkan. Apakah langkah proaktif yang dapat disediakan oleh pemimpin pemimpin tertinggi BN di waktu ini sebagai persedian untuk mengambil kembali undi undi yang terlepas akibat protes dalam PRU12??
Kita kena bergerak dari sekarang. Banyak yang perlu dilakukan. Dengarilah suara hati rakyat ! Rakyat telah bergerak jauh ke depan meninggalkan corak pengundian tradisi. Ada sesetengah pemimpin yang belum bergerak ke depan seiring dengan pemikiran rakyat. Kalau pemikiran antara rakyat dan kerajaan tidak ada jurang, BN tak akan kalah di lima negeri ini.
Bangkit wahai sahabat sahabat di atas sana, percayalah rakyat semakin bijak dari hari ke hari !! Bahaya kalau kita sentiasa rasa selesa. Macam macam pelan yang kita dengar minggu ini termasuk "exit plan". Kita dah terlalu banyak bercakap pasal perancangan. Rasa-rasanya bila agaknya kita dapat jalankan perlaksanaan ??

KARPAL : Kritikan Dr M langgar disiplin parti (Berita Harian)
Berita Harian hari ni memaparkan berita tentang saranan Karpal Singh, Pengerusi DAP dan juga Ahli Parlimen Bukit Gelugor kepada Dr Mahathir. Menurut Karpal Dr Mahathir seharusnya tahu batas terhadap kritikan umum yang dibuatnya terhadap kepimpinan partinya sendiri.
Komen saya : Seperti ada yang tak kena dengan reporting yang sedemikian. Siapa Karpal ???? Karpal patut tahu, dalam masa kita menghormati pemimpin yang ada sekarang, kita pun sangat menghargai bekas bekas pemimpin yang banyak berjasa kepada Malaysia. Kalau pun Encik Karpal nak add more colors, janganlah sampai jadik badut politik!!!

Office Politics !
When we join a new company, we're all hoping for a fresh start and clean slate. The last thing we want is to get embroiled in political intrigue, regardless of how petty it might seem. Most of us just want to do our work and move along with our lives. Even if this were so, which is rarely the case, we must still deal with "political correctness" as defined by society; we have to recognize certain protocols in our mannerisms, language, and conduct.
So, even before we get started in a new job, we have to recognize there is going to be some form of politics, like it or not. I remember my ex boss proudly said to me, "You'll like this place Sam, there's no politics here whatsoever." And I think he firmly believed it too. In reality, they had more cutthroat politics than I had ever seen before.
Whether you are a new employee or a visiting consultant, one of the first things you have to determine about a company is its pecking order. An organization chart makes a convenient road map in this regards, but it doesn't truly define the power structure in a company. For example, a weak manager may actually draw his strength from a powerful assistant. Nonetheless, it is important to identify the fiefdoms of the company, who the key players are, and who the allies and adversaries are. Without such knowledge, you will inevitably trip into some political dispute or become an unwitting pawn in a power play. The best advice in the early going is to simply keep your eyes and ears open, and your mouth shut.
Aside from the power players in an organization, the three most common types of political animals you will encounter are the Suckup, the Radical, and the Saboteur. The Suckup essentially has no spine and is the perennial "Yes Man" to the boss. The boss says "Jump" and the Suckup says, "How High?" But the Suckup has a political agenda of his own which typically is an advancement through the assistance of the boss. He therefore bends over backwards to please the boss at the expense of losing the respect of his coworkers.
The Radical represents "the bull in the China shop" or "loose cannon" and is best known for revolting against the status quo, not quietly but loudly, and is not afraid of stepping on a few toes along the way. Perhaps his mission is correct, and perhaps it isn't. Regardless, this type of person has a slim chance of succeeding as his detractors will work overtime to undermine him. When dealing with such a person you basically have two choices: either join him and hope for the best, or get the heck out of his way so that you are not run over.
The Saboteur is perhaps the most vicious of the three and can probably best be characterized as the "conniving weasel" or "backstabber" who schemes to make the lives of others miserable. He is driven by petty jealousy and wants desperately to be seen as a power broker in his institution. Since he has no real life of his own, the Saboteur gets his jollies by undermining anybody that garners more attention than he does. Whereas the Suckup and the Radical can be dealt with politically, the Saboteur is a pest that must be exterminated. Duh !!! (labelling is bad so name names !!!)
Office politics is about loyalty and trust. At some point, you will be asked to choose sides and this to me is what makes office politics ugly. We are all suppose to be on the same team!!!!!!!!!!! Politics is an inherent part of the corporate culture; some companies deplore it, others thrive on it. I guess it's a matter of whether a company values the concept of teamwork or rugged individualism. I have found there is much less politics in companies promoting the former versus the latter. Either way, my advice to anyone joining a new company, be it a corporation or nonprofit organization, is actually quite simple: "En Garde!"

Election Saboteurs !
Newton’s Third Law stated: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. However, it is important to understand that the action force and the reaction force are acting on different objects.
I am more interested to know why people sabotage? when, where & how. Putting the blame on those saboteurs won't solve anything. Lets find solutions and don't forget to name names please !
