Talk:Pakatan Rakyat

Congratulations!
Congratulations to Pakatan Rakyat! And to whoever who made this article. I meant to do it first but oh well. - Alistaire 211.24.8.228 (talk) 08:09, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Pakatan Rakyat is translated as People's Alliance or People's Pact? I think it is People's Pact. --Zack2007 (talk) 11:34, 9 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I think its People's Pact. If you do an internet search most English translations point to "People's Pact" but someone here keeps changing the name back to People's Alliance. The Malay word for alliance is "perikatan" not "pakatan" as in Parti Perikatan, the Alliance (old name for Barisan Nasional). Someone please do the changes. - Alistaire 211.24.5.11 (talk) 02:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

People's Pact v. People's Alliance
Could the person who keeps reverting the English translation from People's Pact to People's Alliance step right up and explain why you think it should be so here please. Otherwise I should think we need admin intervention to lock this article till the edit dispute is solved. -Alistaire 121.120.13.129 (talk) 08:04, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

NPOV
Could someone rewrite the "Controversies" section. Seems very controversial in itself (ie biased) to me. 121.120.101.22 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 17:47, 8 May 2008 (UTC)


 * "Controversies" renamed "Dispute with Barisan Nasional" but as of yet no one wants to address neutrality issues for the record. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.120.42.47 (talk) 16:15, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

I have made the necessary changes. You guys satisfied ? I'm gonna say it a resolved dispute now. I am of the opinion that it is neutral, and added information with regard to the statements made by MM and Badawi, as under a sub-heading called "Precedent". This will give an interested reader and opportunity to search for more information with regard to the opinion. I think this is quite fair, without subtracting the basic gist of the paragraph, which is to highlight the history of the PR and to also state it's opinion on the Islamic state, issue.

 * No, sorry. Its better, but still not good enough. For one, it still lacks citations, Another, both PAS and DAP are equal members of the Pakatan Rakyat, and the position of both need to be accorded due respect. Most of the non-Muslim Malaysian electorate may be opposed to the Islamic state, but large parts of the Malay Muslim population still support it. Putting the apparently hypocritical position of the MCA and Gerakan may be ok, but without reference to the fact UMNO claims that this wont affect non-Muslim rights is to leave out part of the story, and is thus misleading. An encyclopedia should report facts, not opinions, above all. 121.120.73.236 (talk) 09:51, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Ideology
Is it appropriate to list the coalition's ideology? My impression is that Pakatan is a coalition of convenience, an anti-BN coalition. Sure, the individual parties have distinct ideologies, but I don't think the coalition as a whole has a coherent ideology - indeed, the DAP has clashed frequently with the PAS since they entered into the coalition. 131.217.6.7 (talk) 04:59, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Lazy journalists cited this article!

 * An encyclopedia contains facts, and it is. Pakatan Rakyat is dead.
