Ex-MCA president freed. Who's the real culprit then?

-
Former MCA president and former transport minister Dr Ling Liong Sik was today acquitted the court of all charges against him in the much publicized Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) scandal which had cost the government billions of Ringgit in losses.

Then, the question here is, who is the real culprit? Why was the probe only focusing on Dr Ling and not the other parties who are also involved in the PKFZ dealings, be it directly or indirectly? The contractors, sub-contractors, as well as those minor contractors at large, business connections, other powerful people behind the scene, why weren't all these elements taken into consideration during the probe.

Another former transport minister Chan Kong Choy who is also the former MCA deputy president was also reported to be part of the PKFZ deal during his tenure in the government. Why was his case yet to be heard? Perhaps the Attorney-General's Chambers had forgotten. So does the Malaysian Anti Corruption Agency (MACC). Besides Chan, there are also few more individuals who are involved.

Look, this government had suffered a massive loss not in thousands of Ringgit but the sum of billions of Ringgit just disappeared like that without anymore trace. What is wrong with this government, the entire government machinery from the legislature, the judiciary and the law enforcers, which also includes the MACC?

Dr Ling acquitted from all charges and that's it? Case close and forget about it? Come on, it has already been an open secret that the PKFZ scandal is the result of a very-well connected internal conspiracy to squander the public funds in billions. The failed PKFZ project was not an incidental case nor a natural disaster. It is man-made, on purpose in order to take the public funds for their personal interests.

The other one is, the PKFZ's turnkey developer, Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd (KDSB). Why was this major participant of the scandalous project being totally forgotten? They should be held accountable as well but just because the major shareholders of the company were BN leaders, the probe against this company had since vanished.

Well, whatever it takes for this government in its efforts to "curb corruption", it has been expected, they are all merely for window-dressing, a very clear attempt to cheat our people, hoping that our people would eventually forget about it or maybe the entire nation is so forgetful.

The entire system, the government, legislature, judiciary and the law enforcers seems to be very frustrating. What else can be trust in this BN government?

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.

Singapore Malay daily teaches Mahathir about hardwork

The former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad's assumption that Malays in Singapore had failed and their neighbouring Malays should take lesson from their plight has not impressed a Singaporean daily. The republic's Malay daily Berita Harian in an editorial said Malay-Muslims in the republic state were successful and it was a result of their real efforts and hard work in line with the values of meritocracy, not a result of being spoon-fed. “We do not believe in being spoon-fed or being too dependent on the government - in other words, we do not have a crutch mentality,' wrote editor Guntor Sadali. Guntor said Singapore Malays believed that a community with such a mentality would soon become a “two M” community, which stands for ‘manja’ (spoilt), and ‘malas’ (lazy). “We definitely do not want to be labelled as a pampered and lazy community,” he said, adding that the Malay community in the island raised their own funds to build Islamic schools, mosques and other community pro...
