Pengendalian Sidang Media - Kali pertama untuk diri sendiri

16 November 2011 menjadi catatan sejarah buat diri sendiri apabila  saya mengendalikan sidang media yang memerlukan saya sendiri membaca kenyataan medianya!. Semua berlaku dalam masa kurang dari 24 jam apabila kekalahan skuad sukan sepaktakraw Malaysia kepada Indonesia mengundang reaksi negatif dari kebanyakan peminat tanah air dan pastinya salah satu lagi laman blog saya iaitu Bolarotan,com menjadi rujukan kebanyakan pihak. Malah Facebook Masyarakat Bolarotan memerlukan saya mengadapnya hampir 10 jam sehari dalam tempoh 2 hari berturut - turut menyebabkan saya merasakan sesuatu harus dilakukan.

Presiden GPMS iaitu En. Jais yang berada di Palembang ketika ini menyaksikan sendiri kekalahan skuad Malaysia di tangan Indonesia. Melalui Facebook beliau menghubungi saya dan melepaskan kegeramannya dan terlintas difikiran saya akan sidang media. Pada mulanya saya ingin menyusun satu sidang media untuk En. Jais tetapi beliau hanya akan pulang selepas Sukan SEA berakhir.

Maka, pada hemat saya tindakan segera ini memerlukan saya dan pengikut Bolarotan serta ahli - ahli Gabungan Penggiat Sepaktakraw Nasional (GPSN) tampil memberikan pandangan mengenai isu ini. Tanpa berlengah segala pengalaman yang saya miliki dan ilmu yang saya ajarkan dalam kursus - kursus saya sebelum ini cuba dipraktikkan. Sememangnya sedikit kelam kabut tetapi mujur jaringan yang saya miliki membantu proses penyediaannya.

Akhirnya tadi ditemani hujan lebat di Lembah Kelang, sidang media yang dihadiri oleh RTM, Utusan dan Sinar Harian telah berlangsung dengan jayanya di pejabat saya. Walaupun ruang mesyuarat pejabat saya tidaklah besar sangat tetapi dapat memenuhi objektif. 

Wartawan Utusan, Abdul Hafiz Ahmad banyak membantu saya dalam penyediaan teks dan kenyataan media. Gabungan tulisan saya dan beliau menjadi satu kenyataan penuh untuk hari ini.

Gementar, risau, bimbang adalah antara perasaan yang bermain di dalam diri. Alhamdullillah semuanya berjalan lancar telah pun diterbitkan di Berita RTM 1 malam tadi. Semoga esok ia bakal muncul di dada akhbar pula.

Terimakasih kepada semua yang membantu..Allah sahaja yang dapat membalasnya!

Recollections of My Life : Col. Muammar Gaddafi, The Leader of the Revolution. April 5 2011

In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful...

For 40 years, or was it longer, I can't remember, I did all I could to give people houses, hospitals, schools, and when they were hungry, I gave them food. I even made Benghazi into farmland from the desert, I stood up to attacks from that cowboy Reagan, when he killed my adopted orphaned daughter, he was trying to kill me, instead he killed that poor innocent child. Then I helped my brothers and sisters from Africa with money for the African Union.

I did all I could to help people understand the concept of real democracy, where people's committees ran our country. But that was never enough, as some told me, even people who had 10 room homes, new suits and furniture, were never satisfied, as selfish as they were they wanted more. They told Americans and other visitors, that they needed "democracy" and "freedom" never realizing it was a cut throat system, where the biggest dog eats the rest, but they were enchanted with those words, never realizing that in America, there was no free medicine, no free hospitals, no free housing, no free education and no free food, except when people had to beg or go to long lines to get soup.

No, no matter what I did, it was never enough for some, but for others, they knew I was the son of Gamal Abdel Nasser, the only true Arab and Muslim leader we've had since Salah-al-Deen, when he claimed the Suez Canal for his people, as I claimedLibya, for my people, it was his footsteps I tried to follow, to keep my people free from colonial domination - from thieves who would steal from us.

Now, I am under attack by the biggest force in military history, my little African son, Obama wants to kill me, to take away the freedom of our country, to take away our free housing, our free medicine, our free education, our free food, and replace it with American style thievery, called "capitalism," but all of us in the Third World know what that means, it means corporations run the countries, run the world, and the people suffer. So, there is no alternative for me, I must make my stand, and if Allah wishes, I shall die by following His path, the path that has made our country rich with farmland, with food and health, and even allowed us to help our African and Arab brothers and sisters to work here with us, in the Libyan Jamahiriya.

I do not wish to die, but if it comes to that, to save this land, my people, all the thousands who are all my children, then so be it.

Let this testament be my voice to the world, that I stood up to crusader attacks of NATO, stood up to cruelty, stood up to betrayal, stood up to the West and its colonialist ambitions, and that I stood with my African brothers, my true Arab and Muslim brothers, as a beacon of light. When others were building castles, I lived in a modest house, and in a tent. I never forgot my youth in Sirte, I did not spend our national treasury foolishly, and like Salah-al-Deen, our great Muslim leader, who rescued Jerusalem for Islam, I took little for myself...

In the West, some have called me "mad", "crazy", but they know the truth yet continue to lie, they know that our land is independent and free, not in the colonial grip, that my vision, my path, is, and has been clear and for my people and that I will fight to my last breath to keep us free, may Allah almighty help us to remain faithful and free.
