CHINESE AND TAMIL NEW MOON STARTS TODAY

 

Today is the Chinese New Year which also means today 17th February is the first day of the new moon (new month) in the Chinese calendar. The Chinese calendar does not sight the new moon in the sky to signal the birth of the new month. Instead they calculate the last day of last month (yesterday) when  the moon was completely dark (or black) in the sky last night. This means that the next day (today 17th February) will automatically be the first day of the new month in the Chinese calendar. 

In the Tamil calendar this complete darkness of the moon is called Amavasai. It also refers to no-moon visible. It also automatically marks the start of a new lunar month the very next day. 

In the Tamil calendar, Amavasai for February 2026 fell on the night of  Monday 16 February 2026 (yesterday) and into Tuesday 17 February 2026 (today).

So in both the Chinese and Tamil calendar today is the beginning of the new lunar month.

Fasting in Saudi Arabia will start on Wednesday, February 18, 2026 (tomorrow).

Fasting in Indonesia will begin on Thursday, February 19 or Friday, February 20, 2026 (depending on local sighting).

In Morocco fasting will begin on Thursday, February 19, 2026.

Here is something from Indonesia - try to understand their language. If I understand the guy correctly he says the new moon will not be visible in Indonesia (from Sabang in Sumatera to Merauke in Papua) until 19th February 2026.

WE ARE NOT AFRAID OF ICEBERGS OR BLOOMBERGS

 

MARYAM NAWAZ GOVERNOR OF PUNJAB SAYS 1000 PAK SOLDIERS KILLED BY BLA

 

Maryam Nawaz (picture above) is the daughter of former Pakistani prime minister Nawaz Sharif. The present prime minister Shebaz Sharif is her uncle. Maryam is also the governor of the state of Punjab inside Pakistan. Its all in the family.

In a recent visit to the family of an army captain who was killed by the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) in Balochistan, Ms Nawaz said that a thousand Pakistani soldiers had lost their lives in the recent Baloch uprising. This is FIVE TIMES more than the 200 or so soldiers killed which was the official figures released by the Pakistan Army.

In another episode the BLA has captured alive SEVEN Pakistani army commandos of the Special Services Group (SSG). The Baloch are holding the seven Pakistani commandos as ransom to be exchanged with Baloch prisoners in Pakistani custody. The Baloch have released videos of the seven captured commandos plus audio. The Baloch have also captured separately another Pakistani soldier Mohamed Sharan (top right of picture), making a total of eight captured Pakistani troops.

However the Pakistani Army has denied their existence and says that it is a fake AI video. The video has circulated widely on both regular media and social media and no one is saying that the video is an AI fake. Except the Pakistan Army.

Basically what it means is that the Pakistani Army is disowning its own troops and leaving them to their own fates at the hands of the BLA.

There is also news that after being jailed in solitary confinement for over 900 days with the light constantly turned on, former prime minister Imran Khan has almost fully lost his sight in one eye. Almost blind in one eye.

Thats just some news from Pakistan.

BERSATU COMMITS SUICIDE, SEMB*RIT SUPPLIED THE TALI GANTUNG

 

Click this link to listen to Hamzah Zainuddin speaking:

Hamzah: Muhyiddin is my number one enemy | The Star

• Bersatu issued dismissal notices Friday to 17 members including Hamzah
• Hamzah Zainudin declared Tan Sri Muhyiddin his “number one enemy”
• saying that he is now a free man to continue his own political struggles

• Bersatu vice-president Datuk Seri Ronald Kiandee, also present
• Hamzah, who is Larut MP, said he is now focused on his duty as Opposition Leader.
• “I have been sacked and I will leave the party. I will never submit an appeal.
• “If the party no longer needs me, then farewell Bersatu.”
• Hamzah regarded what had happened to him as a blessing in disguise.

• continue being the Opposition Leader.
• I have the support of 19 out of 25 Bersatu MPs
• “There are 168 active Bersatu divisions and we have 118 with us now.
• “What does that say for the support for Muhyiddin?” claimed Kiandee

The same day that Hamzah Zainuddin was fired from Bersatu, he was in Rusila Terengganu having lunch with Pas president Hadi Awang, YB Thakiyuddin and other Pas people (PICTURE ABOVE). Considering that Pas nominates the leader of the Opposition in Parliament (on account of their 40+ Parliamentary seats) the éndorsement' by Hadi Awang will ensure that Hamzah Zainuddin shall remain leader of the Opposition in Parliament.

This places Bersatu (with only SIX MPs on its side) in a quandary.  What does this mean? It means Bersatu has been 'kembiri'. Kembiri means they have had their cojones snipped off.  

Bersatu is an opposition party but the man they have just fired from the party will still continue to be the leader of the Opposition - speaking on behalf of Bersatu as well (in the Opposition bench).

Bersatu will have to get used to being 'kembiri' because in their midst there is a semb*rit fellow who has undue influence in the party. This escapade is being blamed on this semb*rit fellow.

Sadly  over the past 30 years Malay politics has seen an undue presence of semb*rits, pintu belakangs and lesbos - something which the community seems to tolerate. 

Back to Hamzah Zainuddin - he has a genuine following not only in Bersatu (his "former party") but that 19 Bersatu MPs who support Hamzah, plus other ADUNs represents real support.

Sad to say Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin does not have the same number. 

Dato Sri Hamzah is in a good position to form a new party - or take over an existing one. Those 118 active Bersatu divisions (out of 168) can easily flip and join a new party led by Hamzah Zainuddin. Plus those 19 MPs will give them  an instant presence in Parliament - not withstanding that really stupid Anti Hopping law.

Hamzah Zainuddin is known to think fast and act fast. Strike while the iron is still hot. 

MULLAHS LOSE BANGLA ELECTIONS. NEW BNP LEADER PROMISES HOPE. “Joi Bangla” (জয় বাংলা)

 

Au contraire Bangladesh did not burn down during or after their General Elections on Thursday night. The Bangladesh National Party led by Thariq Ziaur Rahman has secured a landslide win.

Tarique Rahman – Brief Biography

• Full Name: Tarique Rahman

• Date of Birth: 20 November 1965

• Place of Birth: Dacca (now Dhaka), then East Pakistan (now Bangladesh)

• Political Role: Chairman of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and Prime Minister-designate of Bangladesh following a BNP electoral victory in the 2026 general elections.

🧑‍💼 Background & Family

• He is the eldest son of Ziaur Rahman, the 7th President of Bangladesh, and Khaleda Zia, the country’s first female Prime Minister — both major figures in Bangladeshi politics.

• Known within Bangladesh politics by the nickname Pinu.

The BNP party won a landslide two thirds majority of just over 200 seats in the 300 seat Parliament. But final tallies are still being updated in the media and may change some. 

Immediately upon winning the elections the BNP announced that there will be no street celebrations. They asked supporters and Bangladeshis to say prayers in their homes, inside the mosques, inside HINDU TEMPLES AND CHRISTIAN CHURCHES. 

Immediately signalling an inclusive Bangladesh which should not resort to the streets.

The Muslim Brotherhood has suffered yet another defeat in free and fair elections when their ideological offshoot the Jamaate Islami of Bangladesh secured around 50 Parliamentary seats (out of the 300). This is a wipeout. The mullahs are being tossed in the dustbin where they truly belong. 

All the best to Bangladesh. I hope they succeed and do well in the coming years.
