Something Rotten in our Men in Blue?
There is a chinese saying that goes like this: "Good man dont become a constable" ... i dont really know where this saying originates or whether it originates from Hongkong (because of the endemic corruption problem with their police force in the 70's) or China which has a long history of corruption till present day.
But essentially, as explained to me by someone the meaning of that saying is: good people especially people with integrity should not become a policeman because of the percieved impression that the force (whether HK, CN or here) is corrupt and that men in uniform tend to bully the group that is less prone to offer any resistance rather than doing their sworn duty to uphold law and order.
However, I always believe that in all organization there is a always the good and the bad. And in the case of Commercial Crime Investigation Department director Ramli Yusuff and his men implicated in the wrongful detention I hope, if they are really men of integrity who is just doing their duty according to the law that they will find inspiration in Serpico.
While the story of Serpico is different because Serpico chose to uphold his principle rather than buck under the pressure from his corrupted colleagues whereas CCID Director Ramli is actually acting against a self confessed crook, essentially the moral of the story is about doing the right thing because they were sworn to do so.
We have a Serpico (kind-of) in former ACA Sabah director Mohamad Ramli Mananwho spoke out and reported on his top boss...
But then Serpico is operating in an environment where they have judicial integrity and where the top cop - the Police Commissioner and the city Mayor is elected and vetted by the people and they have integrity in what they do - well at least, they listen to public sentiments.
so the question is, in my beloved country, do we have a judiciary which is impartial and is able to discharge their duties with integrity?
i wont ask the same of the PDRM (malaysia police force) because they have refused to implement the IPCMC despite a huge public outrage and time and again they have failed the public in terms of arresting the increasing crime rate.

There is a sicko out there
yes. there is a real nut case, a pervert out there. and he/she has done this.
The family has suffered enuf. Why is the authorities concerned so careless and callous in handling individual private documents? If it is really pix of post mortem or pix taken by the police forensics i really hope the parents of the deceased would sue the department for divulging personal information and for being careless and callous.
The family has suffered enuf. And I am sure of this. Whatever religion that pervert practices or even if he is an agnos or an atheist - his/her time will come.
I dont mean to be spiteful. But I have two little girls myself and it pains me to hear of such cruel things happening to innocent child.
If there is really a God ( I am an agnos) out there. Please do something for a change?

ACA goes after PKR whistleblowers
The headlines in sun2surf Oct 4th 2007 and Malaysiakini Lingam tape: Name source or face jail just reinforce the public perception that the ACA is not partial and lack transparency in executing their duties.
I have a number of layman questions which I hope the new ACA Director can answer:
1: Why are they in a hurry to find out who the whistle-blower is? What purpose would it serve?
2: Can the ACA give any guarantee of protection to the whistle-blower if he/she step forward?
3: The ACA say that the Star (correct correct correct) in the recording is not contactable - given the seriousness of the case - i am pretty sure there must be a law that ACA can use to compel that person to report in no matter where they are?
4: Why wasnt the rest of the players implicated being questioned till date?
5: What is the purpose of the ACA investigation? Why are they only interviewing the people who submit information rather than the alleged law breaker?
4 days after the ACA Director gave the Star Paper interview ACA wants to be respected, not feared we are shown his inefficiency, toothlessness and ineffectiveness in handling major cases.
And he want ACA to be respected? not feared? I assure you sir, I fear the ACA, i fear the SB, as a matter of fact I fear all this sleuth type of set up.
But my fear of you is not the same of the fear I have when I work in Spore. I fear the Spore authority because I know if I am caught and found guilty the law will take its course.
I fear your agency sir because based on the current event your department has shown that you only investigate the people who come forward and you have no qualms in invoking any laws to make the people who come forward life difficult.
I fear your agency sir because I dont know your leanings - is the agency working for the people or for the PM office or for the highest bidder?

ACA wants to be respected, not feared?
According to a report in thestar paper: ACA wants to be respected, not feared..
Respect is earned not asked for. The ACA director when asked about comparing with ICAC has this to say:
I mean, come on-la... you can say ICAC adopted Msian ACA laws and learnt from us but at the same time you "claim" ACA is better just because you prosecuted prominent figures?
Now this brings me back to Badawi statement of catching 18 big fishes...How many of the 18 big fish Badawi highlited when he became PM was investigated and prosecuted till date?
If we have a better track record how come in the 2007 Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index Hongkong is raked 14 and Malaysia 43?
Have your agency resolved some of the reports lodged by Citizen Nades? Ok. Maybe Citizen Nades report has been sitting in your office for so long you clerk is unable to find it yet... but what about this: Blow away the whistle-blower If what was reported is true, what do you intend to do with your errant staff?
Here's another interesting case which I hope to hear from you: SPECIAL REPORT: ACA whistleblower tells all. Remember the patriotic En Mohamad Ramli Abdul Manan?
Yes, the rakyat does have a very negative perception of your agency... why not do something positive by at least reopening the file of some of the report above?
Or are you just another all talk Director?
Respect is earned not asked for. The ACA director when asked about comparing with ICAC has this to say:
Q: Would you like to see the ACA modelled after the much-feared ICAC in Hong Kong?
A: To say the ICAC in Hong Kong is feared and better is incorrect. In fact, they adopted our laws and learnt from us. We have a better track record than them in terms of prosecuting prominent figures and I also don’t think there is any other agency in this region that has taken action against top officials more than us. I rather make the ACA a respected agency than a feared one.

Tussle at luxury car importer
Tussle at luxury car importer gives investors glimpse of industry's opaque ways
An interesting read. Wonder since when our ACA is so super duper effective. Citizen Nades should give this Tan Sri N a call to see whether he did make an ACA report that got those dude off their air cond room out so quickly or maybe he should check with the new ACA Director on how to phrase a report to get them to act - at least first to clear his "coffin" case filed eons ago.Friday, September 28, 2007
Politics Is the Art of Looking for Trouble
chance upon this on the web... how apt!
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.” - Earnest Benn quotes
Let's look at the sentences individually:
"Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not" - and this is what the bodoh bodoh bodoh minister has to say; There is no crisis in the judiciary and neither is there any scandal involved, said Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Mohd Nazri Abdul Aziz.
And he blamed the opposition for creating the scandal in order to erode public confidence in the judiciary. - excerpt from Malaysiakini - need subscription to read.
"diagnosing it incorrectly" - ‘What crisis? I don’t see any’
"applying the wrong remedy" - Is the tape authentic? That's the panel's job

Nat arrested? Or just invited for coffee?
i read about Nat being "invited" to Bukit Aman from his blog and then from polytikus
site.
I am so distressed. angry. dissapointed. with all the rhetorics from the PM about "work with me" about asking the rakyat to work together to eradicate corruptions etc...
And on the same day that I read Jeff posting on Kofi Annan speech I quote from his site "Of course, protecting human rights and abiding by the rule of law is first and foremost a national responsibility," he said. "It is only when governments are grounded in the rule of law -- fairly and consistently applied -- that society can rest on a solid foundation."
WHAT is wrong with my beloved country? we have special forces killing and blowing up foreigners for only god knows why. We have high level minister being investigated for purported corruption, we have the top cop being accused of ties to the triads, we have allegations that a certain minister is using company funds to pay off personal debts, our crime level has reach such an extent that we need this public hearing on crime held by the Parliamentary Caucus on Human Rights and Good Governance --- all these issues are national issues as it affect our country integrity, it affects our livelihood, it affect our generations and the next, it affect our economy, it affects FDI and yet instead of focusing on resolving it and instead of rebuilding Malaysia reputation we have just added another black spot to our already tarnish repo in the international scene.
I hope the Ministry of Home Affair will do the right thing - release Nat. Now. or charge him and give him back his basic rights.
I also hope the Ministry of Home Affair will do the right thing by telling the police about Kofi Annan speech on "Responsibility to Protect".
Let's not waste the time of this former United Nations Secretary-General and a Nobel Peace Prize laureate effort for making his trip here.
Pray do the right thing, dear minister of the home affair who incidentally is also our PM wise this Khazanah Merdeka Series would be meaningless.

Malaysiakini Vox Populi
On Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
(need subscription to read)
Brian Fong: The ‘stupid, stupid, stupid’ and ‘I am not convinced’ minister is now participating in public hearings on crime? He is someone who has consistently outdone himself in being deaf to logical reasoning (as proven in the call to review the 1988 judicial crisis when this minister keep on saying, ‘I am not convinced! I need new facts...’ when all the facts are laid bare before him).
Having such a character to solicit feedback... that is the biggest joke of the month and an insult to all victims of crime!

Wintess Protection Unit
Have you read the Malaysiakini piece on "Key witness: My life was threatened"
Yes. The SB and/or the police is at it again. Like what they did in the Anwar case.. giving promises, cajoling, threatening... just so the witness will break down and eventually submit to their psychological pressure and say things which are planted for them to say and not what is necessary the truth...
("Rohaniza told the court that she had given a different version of events to her earlier statement to the police because of pressure from the investigators. "I was under tremendous pressure. I said something but something else was recorded by investigators," she told Mohd Zaki.
"They wrote things I never said," added Rohaniza, who testified in her police uniform, with tears in her eyes. "While I was remanded, they tortured me," she said, referring to threats that she would be investigated for murder.)
Isnt there a life recording in the interrogation room? But then of course these bargers can switch it off anytime... but then if what Rohaniza said is true, then how can the prosecutor sought to impeach her?
If these prosecutors are professionals who are serious about their work of upholding justice and be seen to possess integrity they should instead initiate an investigation into the allegations raised by Rohaniza.
Who interrogated her? Is the camera and recording on during the whole interrogations? Rohaniza also said the following:
Rohaniza told the court that before her cautioned statement was taken, a police officer from the Serious Crime Unit offered to free her and Azilah from the charge of murdering Altantuya. - Isnt this an interference to the course of justice? And who is this police officer to have the power to absolve someone from a criminal charge - (that is if both of them are found guilty) He must've greater power that the Judge, the PM, the DPM and the whole lot sitting in the Parliament put together.
Shouldn't the Hon Judge and the sworn to uphold justice, truth and the law of the country Prosecutor be more interested to find out who this omnipotent police officer is?
She added that the officer who took her cautioned statement also promised to shorten her remand period. As such, she said, she agreed with whatever was stated in the cautioned statement made under Section 112 of the Criminal Procedure Code on Nov 16, 2006 - Isnt there a law governing how long a suspect could be remanded for investigation? By offering a suspect to shorten the remand period in return for a cautioned statement is like saying if you listen to me then I will consider doing this for you ... shouldnt this be a contention point to be highlighted? Can any right minded people with integrity believe that under such condition the cautioned statement make is make without duress and is true?
Rohaniza could not remember the name of the officer. She also said that the same promises were made to her by a number of officers from the Technical Assistance Unit while she was under the 14-day remand. "I was kept isolated in a hotel room... before giving the statement. I was under tremendous pressure. They pressured me, saying I could not go home and would be locked up again." - They pressured me --- man, this statement alone is enuf for the sworn to uphold justice, truth and the law of the country Prosecutor to initiate an investigation on what really happened during the interrogation!
Since Rphaniza has brought up all these irregularities happening in the police station as well as the threat on her life - I think the relevant authority should put her in a Witness Protection Unit and instead of putting her as the Key Prosecution Witness should be the Key Defending Witness or the Key Witness to the Truth .. whatever-la... and her statement must be taken in a transparent way with the observation from representative either from Suhakam, Gerak or TI-M.

Democracy, Freedom of Speech and Wealth
Found this 2 pieces of timeless words from Louis Brandeis, US Supreme Court Justice
On Democracy and Wealth
"We can have a democratic society or we can have great concentrated wealth in the hands of a few. We cannot have both"
On Freedom of Speech
"Those who won our independence believed that the final end of the state was to make men free to develop their faculties, and that in its government the deliberative forces should prevail over the arbitrary.
They valued liberty both as an end and as a means.
They believed liberty to be the secret of happiness and courage to be the secret of liberty.
They believed that freedom to think as you will and to speak as you think are means indispensable to the discovery and spread of political truth; that without free speech and assembly discussion would be futile; that with them, discussion affords ordinarily adequate protection against the dissemination of noxious doctrine; that the greatest menace to freedom is an inert people; that public discussion is a political duty; and that this should be a fundamental principle of the American government.
- Louis Brandeis, US Supreme Court Justice, 1927

The Singapore factor..and our Police
The Singapore factor..
After years of indonesia illegals committing crime bashing the PDRM is changing its tune now to Singaporean triads bashing!
To be honest, I think there are some truth in the statement given the proximity of Spore to JB and given the superb intelligence (well informed network) and efficiency reputation of the Spore police force, anti-triads agency, SB collectively that any triads that is serious about surviving must have layers and layers of camouflage applied to their operations. For them, making a living as a triad in Spore must be tough...so tough that setting up operations in the nearby JB must've seemed like a breeze.
If that is true than it say a lot about our police efficiency and effectiveness(E&E) in dealing with cross border crime or in curtailing international crime-syndicate from setting foot in Malaysia.
Looking on the bright side, i would prefer that our police to be in-efficient and in-effective rather than the reverse otherwise how can they explain away the increasing crime rate and how do they explain that crime syndicate from foreign country actually set themselves up in Malaysia?

If our police force is superb E&E and yet the crime rate goes up with the setting up shops of foreign crime syndicates, then something is very wrong ...internally with the police force.
So it doesnt help much when the IGP call the Malaysian-today Article a slander but is not considering taking any action.
Is his hesitancy in pursuing the matter from a legal perspective a tacit acknowledgment that the MT article carries at least a grain of truth in it?
If the MT report is true and going by the recent announcement in the paper(The Star Paper) by the IGP and his CID Chief such as this - "Underworld may be backing triads" "IGP: Johor a magnet for overseas gangsters" "IGP: Seven gang leaders in JB identified" "Top anti-vice cops moved out" :- what does it sound to you?
Cant blame me for conjuring fishy images, but based on the MT article (if it is true) - then it really sounds like criminals and/or the IGP or his team or whoever the invicible hand maybe, maybe using this crime hoo-haa to consolidate their power base in JB by high-lighting the other crime leaders who are not "aligned" and taking out their ops altogether and ALL done Legitly!
dont you think it is smooth?
On the other hand, if the MT article is not true then the IGP owed the rakyat he served an explanation on:-
1: when did he found out about JB being the fav of overseas crime syndicate? what is so enticing about JB that it can serve as a magnet for them? Is it becos JB seem like the Gotham City of Msia?
2: when did he found out about the 7 gangleaders? what took him so long to find out or did this gangleaders just pop up like mushroom overnite? (oh sure....)
3: what has organised crime got to do with snatch thieves, rapes and house break-ins? Has he been able to tie up the current crime spates to any organised crime network?
Man.. the more I ask the more I wanted to ask..... but enuf for the time being...

Underworld may be backing triads
KUALA LUMPUR: Federal police have not ruled out the probability that Singaporean triads terrorising Johor are being backed by the local underworld. As such, Johor police, with added muscle from their Singaporean counterparts, are set to wipe out the triads.
CID Director Comm Datuk Christopher Wan Soo Kee said that currently Johor police were gathering intelligence on the Singaporean triads to ascertain their local links and the extent of their network. Among others, the Singaporean triads are believed to have committed murders, rapes, and gangsterism.
Comm Wan said the police were aware there were numerous Singaporean triad members in Johor and added that police had not ruled out the probability that Johor’s underworld could be
offering support to the triads. “They are now under our surveillance and we are just waiting for the right time to strike (at them),” he told a press conference.
On Tuesday, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said police had identified seven gang leaders who have been terrorising Johor with the help of influential people. – Bernama

IGP: I’m not bothered by Malaysia Today article
By MARC LOURDES
KUALA LUMPUR: “It’s all slander. It doesn’t bother me as all I am interested in is doing my job.”
That, in a nutshell, was Inspector- General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan’s response to a recent post on the Malaysia Today website accusing him of graft, corruption and being in cahoots with several underworld figures.
Musa, who was speaking at the handing-over ceremony of Comm Datuk Ismail Omar as the new
police management director, said it was up to the public to decide for themselves on the website’s allegations.
“I don’t need to comment on these things. After all, there are so many websites saying these kinds of things. My job is to improve the force,” he said. When asked if the article, written by Raja Petra Kamarudin, would jeopardise his efforts to revamp the force by undermining public confidence in him, Musa appeared unruffled.
However, when asked if he was going to take any legal action against the website or the author of the article, Musa declined to comment.

IGP: Johor a magnet for overseas gangsters
KUALA LUMPUR: Johor is a magnet not only for Singaporean gangsters but also Indonesian and
Taiwanese mobs, all of which are heavily involved in organised crime.
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said the gangs were believed to be linked to local syndicates and involved in activities ranging from drug distribution and prostitution to illegal gaming.
“They are cooperating with local syndicates who are giving them protection to conduct illegal activities in the country,” he told a press conference after launching the Rakan Cop programme in Taman Melawati.
Musa declined to reveal the number of gangsters in the state but said the police were capable of reining them in. “We have identified the gangs and are gathering intelligence,” he added.
On June 26, Musa revealed that Singaporean gangs were involved in Johor's organised crime.

IGP: Seven gang leaders in JB identified
By LOURDES CHARLES and NELSON BENJAMIN
JOHOR BARU: Police have identified seven gang leaders who have been terrorising the state
with the help of influential people.
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said police were in the process of gathering intelligence to either take action against these leaders under the preventive laws or to charge them in court.
“Many crime heads are from the state. Not only are locals involved but Singaporeans also control certain areas,” he said, admitting that there was a lot of illegal activity in the state which needed to be cleaned up.
Musa explained that the police would have to weed out gangsterism, clamp down on VCD pirates, loan sharks and those involved in prostitution.
“We must take action against the leaders and not just target VCD sellers,” he said. Musa was in Johor on a one-day working visit to discuss the crime situation with his men and also to brief Mentri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman on police plans to curb the problem.
Asked whether officers carrying out their duties might fear reprisal or transfers because of these influential people, Musa replied: “My men need not worry about getting transferred if they are doing a good job. Just do not victimise anyone.”
Musa, who was satisfied with the efforts taken by the local police to tackle crime in the state, said there was no need for a special task force from Bukit Aman to be sent to Johor as had been done in Sarawak.
“They (Johor police) have their own task force. The situation in Sarawak is different as they (the gangsters) were too much,” he said. “The situation in Johor is under control but can be improved.”
On gangsterism, Musa said nobody wanted to come forward to give evidence and, as such, the police would have to use preventive laws against the suspects.
“If the gangster comes out from detention within three months, what are we to do?” he asked.
Musa also took local councils to task for approving entertainment licences everywhere, which made policing difficult. “Even in villages there are entertainment outlets,” he said, adding that fights usually broke out at pubs and clubs.
After years of indonesia illegals committing crime bashing the PDRM is changing its tune now to Singaporean triads bashing!

IGP: Seven gang leaders in JB identified
Letter to the Editor of the Star (never got publish-le..)
Dear sir,
In ref to your headline "IGP: Seven gang leaders in JB identified" I have several question for the IGP.
1: What takes him so long to know that there are 7 Gang leaders with the help of influential people in JB?
2: Based on what empirical studies that, I am assuming the PDRM have done, the PDRM is so sure that these gang leaders and gangesterism is the root cause of ALL the crimes in JB?
3: Is the IGP therefore able to confidently conclude that once these 7 Gangleaders are put in detention there will be no more snatch thieves, rapist and robbers terrorizing the people of JB?
4: Following the above assumption, is the IGP telling the people of JB that all these crimes, like snatch thieves, robberies, rapist, car jacking etc are being committed by criminals or gangster connected to or aligned with the 7 Gang Leaders?
Instead of grandstanding about his knowledge on how many gang leaders there are operating in JB he should try to take a page from William Bratton the former Commissioner of the New York City Police Department on how he reduce crime by 10% per year since he took over the position.
Talk is cheap and maybe 10% is too high a standard - what about at least 5%?

Don’t question Pak Lah’s battle against graft
I am getting real sick and tired of this Nazri character which is so typcial of the majority of our clueless MPs.
A report in Malaysiakini headline "Don’t question Pak Lah’s battle against graft"( 10 April 2007 subscriptions required) - Nazri says "“We hope everyone, including the opposition front, do not use graft issues against the government as this will only strengthen the wrong perceptions others have on our country,” - “It will also affect the flow of foreign investors to our country,” he added.
What do you think of statement like this?
Makes you want to cry - at his naivety? - that as long as an issue is not discuss, swept under the carpet and it is blue skies everything nice?
Yeah, come to think of it - that has always been the way the government operates even during TDM time. If it is not in the local paper headline then it is not an issue. Yeah, corruption never happens "if" everyone dont talk about it, "if" the local paper didnt write about and "if" all our MPs never discuss it in parliament. How dandy..
So instead of "close one eye" Nazri is essentially suggesting that everyone should close both eyes and shut up as well...
sure dude...you and your kind can close all your eyes and shut the f* up for all I care because after all I dont understand moron speaks but you sure cant compel the rakyats to be as irresponsible as you guys are. And if you think by not talking about it can increase the government standing in the TI Corruption Perception Index or that tomorrow FDI will start flowing in again then it is about time you sign up for a communication course 101 to understand what it responsbile communications means.

"Wage war on crime" so the Star Paper headline scream.
"Taking the cue from the Prime Minister, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said the police would go all out to stop those involved in gangsterism in Sarawak, even if "influential" people were involved. "
Yes gangsterism in Sarawak but why only focus there?
What about those "licensed" gangster in KL?
- Toll Hike Protest
- Bloody Sunday
What is the difference between this "licensed" gangster and the so call HK link gangster?
Wonder .. wonder
