The story of Baby Shay Adora Ram thus far

I have been following the saga of baby Shay Adora Ram daughter of  doting couple Ramachandran Muniandy and Hannah Yeoh (Adun DAP) for quite sometime now.


Over a cuppa: Hannah Yeoh catching up with her husband,
Ramachandran Muniandy, over a breakfast of coffee and toast.

It started when the mixed couple wanted to register their infant daughter's race identity as "Anak Malaysia" against existing legal conventions. Their application for the baby daughter's birth certificate was rejected at first as the couple did not fill in the race description and they demanded to have"anak Malaysia" for the baby's race identity instead. 


They got support from the DAP:

DAP backs couple’s ‘Anak Malaysia’ bid


But then come a stinging rebuke from blogger Shuzeng:


As the law is not on their side the doting parents of baby Shay registered her race as being Chinese, "temporarily". I thought that was strange as the baby's father is clearly Indian and why say temporary when they are aware that their wishes can never be granted by the Law. Anyway whilst the controversy on "anak malaysia" has not really died down, the couple had inadvertently poked another hornet's nest:

Decision on newborn’s racial identity slammed

I have a feeling that this would not be the end of the story on baby Shay Adora Ram, there will be more until perhaps her parents come to their senses and do the right thing for the baby's sake.

Saya terbaca tiga pucuk surat baru-baru di Free Malaysia Today, bertajuk Hannah Yeoh exploiting race identity for political mileage, Hannah Yeoh's glad tidings or 'ethnic cleansing'? dan Politicising race in birth certificate.

Posting di laman YB Zul Noordin yang pedas sekali.

Hannah Yeoh yang lepas bunting, peminatnya pula yang meroyan, memaki-hamun barang sesiapa yang berani mengkritik idola mereka.

Meluat sungguh dengan politikus Kristian DAP yang asyik mengada-ngada.

Sekarang setiausaha politik samseng Lim Guan Eng pula yang enggan mengaku Cina. Klip video Ng Wei Aik ada di YouTube -- muka sebiji macam apek tetapi masih berkeras mahu anaknya (yang diberi nama orang putih) dikenali sebagai anak Malaysia, seperti juga Hannah menolak dirinya Cina. Meragam betul adun-adun DAP yang perasan ni.

DAP kerja dia memang nak buat kacau bilau bro. Kekuatan BN adalah diatas kestabilan politik yang membenarkan negara ini maju dan makmur. Bila politik tak stabil negara akan huru hara dan negara ini akan mundur dan musnah. DAP akan masuk ambil untung bila negara ini kacau bilau. Mereka lupa bahawa Melayu akan bersatu bila berhadapan dengan ancaman kepada bangsa agama dan negara.

Pasal Anak Malaysia ini senang sahja tanya mereka ada tak diAmerika orang Cina atau India berani mahu daftarkan anak mereka sebagai Anak Amerika? Kenapa tak berani? Sebab mereka akan disepak terajang oleh majoriti orang Amerika jika berani berbuat demikian. DAP ini bagus di haramkan dan ketua parti semua masuk ISA baru negara ini aman dan makmur.

Ish! ISA satu undang-undang kejam lah bro. Takpe, biar sahaja DAP terus berlaga di arena politik. Siapa yang patut, dia akan menang pilihanraya.

Tapi kan sebenarnya blogger-blogger pro-Umno patut lebih bijak mengemukakan hujah-hujah untuk menangkis teori tunggang langgang (seperti Anak M'sia) yang dijajakan DAP.

Boleh tanya: Apa pendapat bro tentang kontroversi songkok di DUN S'wak baru-baru ini?
