Siapa Reezal Merican Naina Merican?

Who is Reezal Merican Naina Merican? Read here for more

Reezal Merican Naina Merican is an Indian Muslim from Penang ( i.e. MAMAK) who had managed to bring himself to the attention of Abdullah Badawi three years before Khairy ever showed his face in the Jalan Bellamy house.

Reezal Merican (often called ‘Ustaz Reezal’) is an IIUM graduate with a penchant for high politics and beautiful women artistes. He was sued for divorce by his second wife, actress Sharifah Norhaslinda.

Reezal Merican is a member of the Kepala Batas Umno division in Penang headed by Abdullah. Read here for more

When Abdullah Badawi ascended that high office, Reezal Merican thought that his time had come. His years of being the ‘lightning rod’ in IIUM -- attracting the ire of his fellow students who were mostly supporters of Anwar Ibrahim -- would finally pay off when Abdullah recognises his loyalty and perseverance in defending his image.

Reezal had hoped that Abdullah would reward him with a suitably high post in government. In November 2003, Reezal was made Political Secretary to the First Finance Minister. It was not as important as being Political Secretary to the Prime Minister himself, but as the two posts were conjoined in the same person, Reezal did not complain too much.


Khairy did not take this lying down though. He shot off another official memo to Abdullah, informing him that the IIUM graduate did not deserve the post as he added no value to the effort to show Abdullah’s administration as being a professional team of bright young things.

Khairy also accused Reezal of involvement with several young recording artists and newsreaders. The letter found itself on Abdullah’s desk, but not before chief private secretary Dato’ Thajudeen Abdul Wahab (no friend of Khairy’s) had made a copy and given it to Reezal.

Seething with anger, Reezal swore to eliminate Khairy from the Abdullah circle.
That promise was made in the white heat of anger.

Eventually, Reezal realised that it was better to be seen to support Khairy, at least for the time being. He took a step back and allowed Khairy to go for the UMNO Youth Vice-Chief post while he himself contested as an ordinary EXCO member, though he had a longer relationship with the UMNO Youth delegates.

On 15 June 2006, Reezal Merican Naina Merican wrote a letter to Datuk Zamani Abdul Ghani, the Deputy Governor of Bank Negara Malaysia about an amount of USD50 billion required by Malaysia to fund its national development.

Now, what authority does Reezal Merican Naina Merican have in instructing the Deputy Governor of Bank Negara? Reezal Merican is one of the ‘Tingkat Empat’ boys and the Political Secretary to the Finance Minister, who by chance also happens to be Malaysia’s Prime Minister.

Reezal Merican is not there because of his abilities but because Khairy Jamaluddin, the Prime Minister’s son-in-law, wants to keep an eye on things and Reezal Merican plays the role of Khairy’s eyes and ears.

The Two Powerful UMNO-Mamaks and Khairy Jamaluddin

Reezal Merican’s job is not only to report everything to Khairy and to be the minder for the Finance Minister II and keep him under control, but also to ensure that Khairy gets to read all reports and letters before it falls onto the desk of the Finance Minister II.

By the time any documents reach the table of the Finance Minister II, it would already have instructions etched on them about which project and which contract is to be awarded to which company. In short, the jobs are apportioned out even before the Finance Minister II gets to see the papers. Read here for more

Identity Crisis of Indian Muslims like Reezal Merican Naina Merican

Something is very wrong when we have traitors in the (Malaysian Indian) community. Read here for more.

The Indian community consists of various ethnic groups with their roots going back to India. People from South India are the Tamils, Telugus, Malayalees, and those from North India are the Sikhs, Gujarathis, Bengalis and others.

In this group there also religious groups like Indian Muslims both from South and North India.

Religion can NEVER change your roots.

Indians in Malaysia do not have an identity problem. (But) this identity problem is evident with the Indian Muslims.

These Indian Muslims are bent on CHANGING THEIR RACE.

This is impossible. I may imitate a white man in his talk, mannerism, food, clothing and many others but I cannot be a white man, not even a “celup” white man.

A reader in Malaysiakini categorised Indian Muslims into three groups consisting of:

* Indian Muslim converts
* Malays with Indian ancestry
* Indian-Muslim descendants of immigrants

It is evident that the bulk of the Indian Muslims in this country come from the Indian-Muslim descendents of immigrants.

Generally, this group is referred to in Tamil as “thulukar” or “thulukan”. This is a misnomer, the origin being “thrukkan” or a mussalman from Turkey. Mamak is the Malay version.

They include:

1.President of the Federation of Peninsular Malay Students, Datuk Reezal Merican Naina Merican

2. President of the Indian Muslim Congress Malaysia (KIMA) Syed Ibrahim Kadir

The names Merican, Naina and Kader are very clear that these two chaps refer to the “thrukkans” .


Other prominent Indian Muslims/"mamaks" who became "Malays" and gained political influence in UMNO are:

* Information Minister Zainuddin Maidin
* Minister for Women, Family and Community Development, Shahrizat Abdul Jalil
* Second Finance Minister Nor Yakcop
* Subahan Kamal
* Datuk Abdul Azeez Rahim
* Dr. Zamri
