Sime Darby GM charged with graft. But no affirmative results

-
Sime Darby's general manager for business development, investments and investment projects Zamri Mohd Iderus was today charged in the Sessions Court here with two counts of selling company information. The court set September 29 for further mention of his corruption trial.

So what? This is only a beginning. And we are still saying that the MACC is not doing enough to get rid of such negative elements from the government, its agencies and wholly-own companies.

In the case of Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ), it is only Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik charged, what about the others who had collaborated with him, what about those on top there who had acknowledged and allowed his move to do so? Why are these crooks still free outside there.

Same goes to this Sime Darby case, why only a general manager alone was charge? We are certain that there are other accomplice as well, has his bosses being scrutinized on this case? Just like Tun Ling, Zamri could not have done so many wonders like that for years if not for the authorization or go ahead from someone on top there.

If not, why have these two men survive for so long? This question is very critical and someone from the federal government, particularly the prime minister and finance minister should answer to our people and the entire nation. We are watching you.

The fact that is all these scandals do have direct or indirect political links from within and outside of both establishments. That is why they are only being charged recently, not because they were actually wrong and guilty, but should we say they were merely scapegoats?

There are some possibilities that these two men were mere scapegoats. If not, where are the rest of the gang members?

What about Felda losses, Felcra debts, VK Lingam video tape, the Bakun Dam, Pos Malaysia's losses, the mismanagements in the government procurement systems, the Khir Toyo case, the two malfunction submarines, the illegal loggings in Sarawak, the Sabah crisis of identity and a lot more. If we were to properly list out all these, it would cost us a few books on this.

So, MACC we know you are doing your job now but where are your directions and objectives. We want to see results and not publicities stunts like these two. They are too basics to be said a big ones. If you want to regain our people's trusts and confidence, you must act and perform professionally and diligently without fear and favour.

Just look at the Hong Kong ICAC, even the commissioner of police was arrested and so, even the secretary of the government was also arrested. The ICAC stand out on top of the others and the people could see the difference between the other sectors and the ICAC. And this is how the ICAC gained their reputation from the general public because of their professionalism and neutrality in their tasks.

EC should ask ROS to register Pakatan quickly

The Election Commission (EC) had recently advised the current opposition pact, Pakatan Rakyat comprising PAS, PKR and DAP, to register their coalition so that they could use their logo in the coming general election. EC deputy chairman Datuk Wan Ahmad Wan Omar said the coalition should be registered because the opposition parties were always seen violating regulations of the election campaign, especially on the use of their logo. Datuk Wan Ahmad seems to be overly ignorant and too forgetful on this issue. The EC deputy chairman should ask the Registrar of Societies (ROS) to quickly register the Pakatan instead of calling on Pakatan to register itself. Pakatan Rakyat had earlier send in their formal application to register itself as a coalition of political parties since November 2009 and ROS has yet to register the said entity till today after delaying and creating so many hassles for more than a year. It is not Pakatan who is delaying on its application but it was the ROS who is just...

USM fiasco a shame

-
I read and heard with irritation and felt disgusted with the fiasco committed by the apex status university called Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) which caused untold anguish to the affected students and their parents. If this happened in Japan, the Vice-Chancellor would have done the honourable thing - take full responsibilty and leave, but here in Malaysia, as expected, the blame is shifted here and there, trying to make someone a scapegoat. By the way, would there be any racist or sabotage elements involved? Those who are responsible for this fiasco should be sacked or expelled immediately.

Federal Constitution that Safeguards the Legitimate Rights and Interest of All Malaysians

-

The provisions of the Federal Constitution are very clear. It confirmed the position of the Malay Rulers, Islam as an official religion of the federation and special position of the Malays and the natives in Sabah and Sarawak whilst recalling that those provisions balance those special positions with safeguards to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the other communities in Malaysia which also includes their right to profess and practice their religions freely without being fear of any threats or being harmed by anybody. The legitimate interests of the non-Malays and non-Muslims would include, amongst others: a) Article 153 (9) says that business or trade cannot be solely reserved only for the Malays, b) Article 3 (1) says that the official religion of the federation is Islam BUT other religions are also allowed to be practiced in peace and harmony in any part of the federation. This means, the other communities too have their fundamental legitimate rights and interest here ...
