About wrapping up the MAS female cabin crews

-
The deputy minister of women and family development Siti Zailah Md Yusoff had recently said that she will meet up with the minister of religious affairs in the prime minister’s department Zulkifli Mohamad to ascertain if all MAS female cabin crews should cover-up entirely to ensure their “aurat” were not exposed.

To Siti Zailah, how about proposing all MAS female cabin crews to be wrapped up entirely, with masking tapes, shrink wraps whatever you see fit to ensure nothing can be seen forever? What do you think?

Don’t you have more practical things to do in your role and responsibilities as the deputy minister in the women and family development ministry? You should look into matters that stringent protection on women and children, development of women and children well-being and all matters which regards ensuring the best for this community. Not going after women who are working in MAS to see if their dress code really adheres to your kind of Religion.

Look at the plight of many women and children who need help or assistance from the government and your ministry especially. Setting up women or children centres or enhancing the role of welfare offices nationwide to ensure women and children are being assisted and their well-being are being looked into.

Take an in-depth at the rural areas where women and children are very much in need of help, care and lacking in such facilities will certainly harm their well-beings.

Siti Zailah, you are running out of focus in your first week as a deputy minister in that ministry. Stay on course and do not use religion to justify your job or compromising your roles and responsibilities. Be practical in what you are doing instead of always wanting to consult God or playing like Him when carrying out your job.

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.

No action against YBs without speaker's consent

-
Penang assembly Speaker Law Choo Kiang said the police and attorney-general (AG) cannot prosecute any elected representatives for any wrongdoings committed in the House. Law said the authorities cannot act on the assemblypersons without the agreement of the speaker. "So this clearly cancels the (planned) charge against Seri Delima assemblyperson RSN Rayer for sedition under the 1948 Sedition Act," the PKR Bukit Tambun assemblyperson said in a statement yesterday. Law said a warning based on the assembly's standing orders has been issued to Rayer not to repeat the remark "Umno celaka" (damned Umno), which the latter allegedly uttered in the House on May 20. Based on the standing orders, the 10 disgruntled Umno assemblypersons were also told to table an emergency motion to the Penang special assembly committee to deal with their indignation over Rayer's remark, Law added. "But Umno failed to obtain enough quorum or votes for the motion, so they couldn...
