		<description>The monarchies (sultans/rajas) in a democracy are just symbols and they do not have any executive powers. As such they just know what is good for them and their heirs. Their lot is to fawn understanding of the principles of the democratic system of the country and sign whatever is placed before them.

From time to time some of them might try to ruffle the feathers of the elected ruling elite of the country by trying to be a bit bossy but that is as far as it goes. They know the executive can arouse the wrath of the masses against the monarchies with political rhetoric which could become the death knell of the monarchies. Nobody would want to wreck the good things in life given on a silver/golden platter.

So, whatever the rulers said about the Hindraf and Bersih was 'official speak'. Just to give the executive the feel good factor. No offence meant where the rakyat are concerned.

Giving datoship and other miscellaneous state titles are the ruler's prerogative. Apart from recognizing deserving citizens who had contributed to the welfare of the state, it is also another wealth generating exercise. Everything nowadays comes with a price. What if some got the awards through devious means? 

The awards at federal level is a different ball game altogether. There very few deserving citizens are recognized for their services. Any clown who is in the good books of the Barisan National is awarded. The awards are mainly for toeing the BN's dictates and in many cases being the running dogs and 'yesmen'. 

No Opposition party leaders are recognized at state and federal levels. Many of these dedicated and capable leaders who had given their time and money (unlike the BN clowns) are not given due recognition. Anyway most of the Opposition leaders know the worth of such awards and do not become the slaves of the system  to get one of those awards.

I have come across uneducated fishmongers, gardeners, railway gate-keepers and thugs who were awared the datoships and these riffraff had almost always reminded people to address them as such!

Malaysia must be the only country in the world where thousands of awards are given out every year by the government (Yang Dipertuan Agone), the sultans as well as the governors.

In time to come every other person you meet might be a datuk!</description>

		<description>How was paid to the Sultan to speak against the HINDRAF.  If they have brought this to the Government what wou;ld have happened.  Would they have dealed it ratrionally or just close an eye and speak what is need to be spoken.

I really don't understand what is happening.  I am not saying the muslim subjects are bad....it is the upper cronies who doing as lot of havoc to disryupt the peace of the country and its ppl.
About the Datoship....many of the bought their datoship title and what is the Sultan talking about.

Most of the are not eve3n qualified but yet they are strutting around with a Datoship title.  Shame!

I love Malaysia and don want nothing to happen to her because some evil ppl</description>
