Cop And Robber.

First, I would like to say “Well done” to the RELA captain who opened fire on the robbers who came to rob at his house. This is what RELA is all about and not like someone who thinks I think otherwise!

The IGP said crime rate has been reduced and I thank God for that! But I now think otherwise about some cops who resort to “destroy the image” of the police force by their sheer lunacy! Oh God! Why?

Let's play 'mata mata' (cop and robber).Did I mention 'robber' again? Ha! Ha! Ha! This is a new version, not those we played when we were little tots, with wooden pistols or even those water pistols!

This is a "game of intimidation". I am the cop and I am also the robber! The game is simple.

An Indian foreign worker was waiting for the bus, somewhere near Batu Caves, to take him to his workplace. And there were four Indonesians with him at that time (very early in the morning). The cops came and "cornered" them! They were asked to show their papers and after some deliberation, two of the Indonesians were asked to move along! That poor, legit Indian and the other two Indonesians were not so lucky!

These three poor souls were bundled into the patrol car and driven to a police station somewhere and that was where the intimidation started! The “robbers” now demand money with menaces and that poor, frightened Indian was absolutely terrified and had to “pay a ransom” of RM200.00!

What has happen to some of our police personnel now? Aren't they ashamed of their actions? These black sheep of the force are to be slaughtered and have their hide hung high for everyone to see! These clowns must be thinking that these foreigners are their “easy” meal-tickets! And surprisingly, these clowns are also “skilled negotiators” and some do have a systematic way to induce fear with the foreigners.

And what did the Chief Secretary to the Government said about corruptors? “Don’t tolerate them!” For their infraction of the rules, they are to be punished accordingly. If the appropriate authorities are firm and resolute, then the days of the corruptors are numbered! Would we be able to see that day?

The 'Untrue' Story.

Was she, Dr Pornthip Rojanasunand, a Thai pathologist, an expert in forensic science “digging her own grave” after gotten engaged by the Selangor Government last year? She was afraid for her life and she was not telling anything! She wanted an official guarantee of her safety from our government and the Attorney-General’s Chambers before she testify’s at the late Teoh Beng Hock’s inquest!

But everyone knows that nothing can be guaranteed! The only thing guaranteed in life is DEATH! She made an about turn at the last minute and many were kept completely in the dark! And she cannot whistle in the dark because she had been “advised” by our Malaysian Government to “stay put”! Whether that was true or not, nobody knew for sure. For now, the truth remained buried.

There were many loose ends to tie up but apparently, many things seemed “tied-up” at the moment! A verdict had not been delivered and there would be many “restless” souls wandering when all these would end.

Our government had assured her “all the safety” that would be required for a witness. And she was still reluctant to come for the inquest! Why? She might be safe here (in Malaysia) but what about her family (in Thailand)? A threat should not be taken too lightly.

TBH might be long gone (sorry, no offence intended) but his family is still grieving and it grieves me to say that somebody was not telling the truth at all!

From RELA To Robbers!

'Jangan bergerak! Ini "opera-isi poket" Loosely translated as "Operation to fill the pocket". Doesn't that ring a bell? Some personnel from the Ikatan Relawan Rakyat or People's Volunteer Corps (RELA) were "moonlighting" to "fill up their treasure chests"! GotGunBeres boss! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Armed with guns in their hands, these "bad" clowns threatened, extorted and robbed the foreign workers! Their unwarranted actions were suddenly thrown into sharp focus and the only sane thing to do was to disarm them immediately and put them out of action! All 400 of their guns were"surrendered" to the police.

There were many reports and stories of their misdemeanours in the media and those found guilty must be man enough to face the music. Those misfit clowns must go! They are a total disgrace! Would it be possible to place them in Pulau Redang to protect the corals and the environment there? They are to "look after" and not "go after"! Yes to brooms! No to guns!

The Home Ministry can forget about formulating new guidelines on the issuance of duty firearms to these volunteers assigned for street patrols. Soon, we will have taxi drivers with handguns! Supposing that you are wrong, what will you do then, Home Minister? You need to be sure as hell before you decide. One wrong move and it could very well be a fatal decision.

We do have some problems here and there but they're easily surmountable! Stay united and be one. There must not be any sneaking suspicion with one another. With that in mind, our problems might just be solved!

Many clowns in the volunteer corps have the tendency to over-react when they carry out their responsibilities. Some of these clowns think they're "high and mighty" and foreign workers are "easy meat" and can "devour' them without even battering an eyelid! I find these clowns irresponsible behaviour beyond belief! Let's all pray for these benighted clowns lest they betray their own principles and our trust.

It's Your Choice!

It's D-day tomorrow! For the winner of this by-election, everything would be going his way and for the loser, it's his "bye election"! So, I would like to wish them all the best first before I start to ridicule or snap at them, so say some of our CB bloggers about me. Don't be ridiculous guys, you really don't know me! Ha! Ha! Ha!

For "Kamal, Alan or Nathan" or simply the 3-in-1 BN candidate, he's your "friendly neighbourhood spidey". All clean, no garbage, all smiling and always waving. I'm not pelting but give praise where it is due. He may be a first timer but he's no pushover! His thrust into the "limelight" was something totally unexpected! So, it is inappropriate to call him a lightweight! He may be lighter when you compare him to his opponent. Ha! Ha! Ha!

From day one, the lawyer "buruk" was ridiculed and snapped at (of course not by me) but by some others who think he's not fit to be a wakil rakyat for the folks of Hulu Selangor! Why, yes, why dig into his past? He readily admitted to his drinking and gambling days when he was younger. All those "hangover" days were in the past. Someone was given a second chance and why not him? Yeah, why not him?

Know something? He's one of those imperturbable people who never get angry or upset! You can say what you want or impugn his motives, his reputation but he would simply ignore you! Don't you dare forget, he's a wealthy lawyer. And it would be hopelessly impractical to think that anyone could finish him off just like that! Don't be too heavy on him. It's political suicide!

So to the 64,500 voters in the Hulu Selangor constituency, PANDAI PANDAI-LAH PANGKAH (vote wisely). Pick the one, not someone, who can come up with the goods!

Ha! Ha! Ha! .

What a joke! Sorry, I meant what a jerk! No matter how prepared this clown with his "hello" speech when he decided to join another party, I'm sure many of us has come to a common conclusion- this clown is a sore loser! Sulking for days after being left out of the team.

Just a little disappointment and he left his "family" like a crybaby! How could this clown be given the responsibility to look after his constituency, ie, if he has one. One musn't forget that he failed twice!

For every excuse this clown gave, there was always an indication that he was always out of favour. He did not get that special favour and thus, the neurotic outburst! Frankly, that was not a judicious decision at all when he bade goodbye! Of course, there were many before him and surely there would also be many after him! Sadly,this is one of the many maladies of our present politics! It's better we get rid of these inconstant clowns before they create more problems for us. Rightly, these clowns are regarded as politicians with incorrect behaviour!

Do we need these clowns? I don't think so! Many had sullied their names and honour! Let's not bemoaned them. No big loss anyway! And there are many who are ready to step into their shoes at any given moment! Like the Malay proverb: 'Hilang berganti, patah bertumbuh'.

All In Good Faith.

When one loses faith, everything is lost! The inter-faith committee "had reached deadlock" even before it could get off the ground! Some egocentric clowns felt uneasy because this committee is under the "other" Malaysian in the Prime Minister's Department! Yet again I would like these clowns to look at the bigger picture! Have you clowns lost faith in him? The Minister in the Prime Minister's Department is only responsible for unity and national integration! I'm sure he would not be bold enough as to step out of "his boundary"! He knows his limitations. Many "other" Malaysians know their limitations too!

The unnecessary uproar was uncalled for! Moreover, this committee was set up in good faith. To the "faithful", grow up! What could go wrong if everyone in the committee knows what is expected of them. Play your cards right and indubitably, all will go smoothly.

Co-operation is vital, so is teamwork! And do not forget that team spirit works wonders. Close your eyes for a while and one can "see" that teamwork and team spirit is everywhere! Only some chose to think otherwise! Do not be too fanatical over this! Narrow-mindedness, flawed thinking and arguments would only hold back progress. Get those out of our system and see the changes!

This inter-faith committee is few and far between. So, let's not sabotage it. It is not often we can "get together". If everyone is open about it, I'm sure there'll be a good few more that would follow suit.

So, let's not kick against the pricks. Do not unleash storms of angry protests unnecessarily and hopefully, we can achieve something unique in the long run! So, let's kick off by giving this inter -faith committee their "freedom" to carry on with their objectives without any third party involvement!

Grow Up, Please.

It’s a little sad isn’t it to see a 22-year old suffering from growth disorder. It is even sadder to see his single mother, who has to take care of him, suffering from asthma and psychiatric problems. But the saddest part is that the state Welfare Department “looked the other way”. This poor chap was denied the aid needed and that irked me right to the bone!

It’s time for the appropriate authority to “grow up” and help a fellow Malaysian who genuinely needs help! It aghast me even more when the taxpayers money were blatantly used by some government departments like buying a screw driver for more than RM200.00 and a computer that cost more than RM42,000.00! This is really “living beyond one’s means”!

These wanton waste of the rakyat’s money are serious illnesses and drastic measures are needed to “cure” them! The government must prevent these “diseases” from spreading! Now the shoe is another one big problem! The list goes on and on….

Something positive must come out from the state Welfare Department. S. Avinesh Singh is not asking for the sky! He merely wants a little aid. I’m sure that’s not too much to ask. Why do you guys in the state Welfare Department “look down” on him? He barely weighs 25kg and he’s not even a metre tall! I’m sure this small plea from him is not a tall order! Grow up guys and just give him some aid!

Island In The Sun.

The worldwide poor would not be able to set foot on the island of Redang (Pulau Redang) if the government of Terengganu has its way! As I’ve said before, a clown should remain in the circus but here’s one clown, a figurehead, really, who’s on the loose! Anyway, why did this clown choose to make waves?

Pulau Redang is one of the most beautiful islands in the world (10th spot). Many holidaymakers, rich and poor alike, had stepped foot on this island and hopefully, many can still continue to do so if this island remained as it is!

The excuses of poor sewerage system, the improper disposal of waste and the indiscriminate “killing” of the corals were the rising tide of discontent by this clown! Many holidaymakers, especially divers, would not be too happy and now they would have to swim against the tide! And if things go according to this clown’s desire, I’m afraid this island would eventually face a natural watery grave!

This clown’s argument does not hold water. To protect the environment, the corals or whatever, some strict guidelines must be adhered to! Stopping the poor from holidaying on this island is not a very smart idea at all! This clown has “muddied the waters” with his not-so-bright idea! Everyone has equal “visiting rights” to this island!

For once, this clown needs to debunk the myth that he is the only one capable of conserving this island and its surroundings. He must be reminded yet again that no man is an island. Everyone has to play their part! Simple as that!

It would not come as a surprise if one sees a signboard that says: ‘THE POOR NOT ALLOWED! PLEASE PROCEED TO THE NEXT ISLAND. THANK YOU.’ So much for Malaysian hospitality, or worse, stupidity!

We're So Sorry!

You better believe it! An apology (with a RM10,000 compensation) from one of the "most-feared" authorities in this country, the Immigration Department (ID)! And there were two more similar cases. The director-general, Datuk Abdul Rahman Othman, readily admitted that these were due to administrative foul-ups.

All these "administrative nightmares" could easily be avoided if everyone in the ID are competent and efficient! Miscommunication with the other authorities was nothing but a lame excuse. Nothing can excuse such unfortunate oversight! These might have far-reaching implications later on. But I don't think anyone of us can envisage that, just yet!

But let us not overreact when things go wrong. So long as we readily admit to a mistake, then we are only being honest with ourself. His sincerity is beyond question. He's a man of egalitarian principles! I wonder just how many heads of departments are like him! Stand up and be counted!

Problems would crop up now and then but if there is efficiency in handling the crisis, no one would quibble with that! Agreed?
