Prove your mettle, MCLM tells Najib

KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak must prove his mettle as the “leader of 1Malaysia” by speaking out against Utusan Malaysia over its Christian plot report.

In making the call, Malaysian Civil Liberties Movement (MCLM) president Haris Ibrahim also wondered why the authorities were slow in acting against the Umno-owned newspaper.

“Why has there been no action against Utusan under the Sedition Act?

“Is the Umno-led BN government complicit in this attempt to sow racial and religious discord or else powerless to act against an emerging group of fascists?” he asked in a statement.

He urged the BN government to defend the right of all Malaysians to live in peace and to worship freely.

Last Saturday, Utusan had published a report claiming that DAP was conspiring with Christian leaders to convert the nation into a Christan state and install a Christian prime minister. Both DAP and the Christian leaders had denied this.

Meanwhile, MCLM also slammed the government’s assistance for the “fascist” militant wing of Perkasa, Briged Setia Negara

Describing Briged Setia Negara as a “dangerous extension” of Perkasa’s 1Melayu agenda and drawing parallels to Nazi stormtroopers, Haris questioned why the hardline NGO was endorsed by Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.

“To use the government’s resources to train what is so obviously a private militia belonging to an organisation that champions Malay supremacy is a betrayal of the rakyat,” he said, flaying Hishammuddin for condoning the existence of private militia.

Haris demanded that Perkasa’s agenda – which was in “blatant contradiction of the Federal Constitution” – should not be supported by the home minister.

He urged Hishammuddin to personally rescind his approval for the Briged Setia Negara and ensure its disbanding for the sake of national security.

“If he fails to do so, he must be held accountable for any and all violent incidents involving Briged Setia Negara,” he warned.

Najib yang Tentukan Kandungan Utusan Malaysia

Sejak akhir-akhir ini, kandungan Utusan Malaysia telah mengundang seribu macam bahana dan bala. Bermula dari pengeluaran gambar2 lucah yang diambil dari video blue Rahim Thamby Chik. Kemudian, pengharaman Utusan Malaysia di sidang DUN Penang kepada pertuduhan kononnya wujud usaha menukar agama rasmi Malaysia kepada agama Kristian.

Sepanjang kontroversi ini, Najib diam seribu bahasa kononnya beliau tiada kena mengena di dalam tindak tanduk Utusan Malaysia.

Rupanya, diamnya Dato Najib adalah sandiwara semata-mata.

Pendedahan yang dibuat Presiden Kesatuan Wartawan Malaysia, Hata Wahari, menyatakan kandungan Utusan Malaysia ditentukan oleh Biro Politik UMNO yang diketuai Dato Najib Tun Razak.

Mereka bermesyuarat setiap hari Isnin malam dan setiap mesyuarat akan menentukan apa isu yang akan dimainkan untuk minggu itu. Isu tersebut akan dimainkan selama tiga hari. Sekiranya isu tersebut menyegat, maka ia akan diteruskan. Sekiranya isu tersebut mendapat tentangan, maka ia akan diberhentikan dari diberi "coverage".

Maka isu-isu fitnah yang ditimbulkan Utusan Malaysia seperti:

1.0 Kalimah Allah yang menyebabkan 2 gereja terbakar di Kuala Lumpur

2.0 Liwat Saiful

3.0 Video Blue Rahim Thamby Chik

4.0 Penentangan terhadap perpindahan kuil di Seksyen 23 Shah Alam

5.0 Pertandingan PKR yang kononnya kacau bilau

semuanya diketahui dan dimaklumi serta disuruh oleh Dato Najib dan UMNO secara keseluruhannya.

Jelas isu-isu di atas adalah FITNAH dan QAZAF serta DIHARAMKAN oleh ALLAH SWT.

Kesemua perkara yang Haram di sisi Islam ini bersumber dari Dato' Najib Tun Razak serta Biro Politik UMNO.

Bagi saya ini adalah bukti jelas DAto Najib ini adalah seorang yang lidah bercabang. Inikah kepimpinan yang kita hendak harapkan untuk menjaga masa depan anak-cucu kita?

Tulang Besi

Editorial agenda set by Umno
The s wing in Utusan Malaysias stance came shortly after the 2008 election when Khalid was replaced by Aziz Ishak. According to Hata, the latter does not question the editorial directives set by the Umno political bureau which reportedly sits every Monday night to discuss the papers agenda for the week.

Those present are the president Najib Tun Razak, deputy president Muhyiddin Yassin, the three vice-presidents Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, Hishamuddin Hussein and Safie Apdal secretary-general Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor and information chief Ahmad Maslan.

The agenda is then communicated to Utusan Malaysias editor-in-chief via the prime ministers office. The paper will run an issue for three days before dropping it completely unless it receives strong public support from top BN ministers.


Police want Fifa intelligence on match-fixing

MalaysiaKini - SHAH ALAM: The police need intelligence from world football governing body Federation of International Football Associations (Fifa) to kick off investigations into a global match-fixing network allegedly involving Malaysians.
Federal Criminal Investigation Department chief Mohd Bakri Mohd Zinin said this was necessary for the police to analyse and launch certain operations in connection with the case.

We want the investigating team from Fifa to provide us intelligence on the alleged match-fixing network operating from Malaysia, he told reporters at the Selangor police headquarters here today.
It was reported that in the near future, Fifa head of security Chris Eaton would lead a team of investigators to Malaysia, as part of the probe into claims that more than 300 matches in three continents were influenced by match-fixers.
Mohd Bakri said the police would address the issue as it did not want to give the wrong impression that Malaysia was giving its blessings to such vice activities.
Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar had said that a special police task force (from the federal headquarters in Bukit Aman) was ready to cooperate with the Fifa investigating team.
He said the police would extend their full cooperation to Fifa and the Football Association of Malaysia to track down any match-fixing network operating here.
In another development, Mohd Bakri said the police had sought the assistance of the Malaysian Embassy in the Philippines to look into the case of a Malaysian businessman who was reportedly abducted by unidentified gunmen in southern Philippines.
Media reports said Nasaruddin Bensaidin, 38, was captured by about 10 gunmen last Satu! rday on Jolo island, 1,000km south of Manila.
Were cooperating with Interpol and Asianapol with regard to the case, he added.

KUALA LUMPUR - MALAYSIA'S national oil firm Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) will announce on Friday its plans for an integrated downstream project aimed at driving growth of the energy sector.

Prime Minister Najib Razak will announce the project, Petronas said in a media invitation on Wednesday without giving details.


The Star newspaper on Wednesday had cited unnamed sources as saying that Petronas would invest about 50 billion ringgit (S$20.6 billion) in a downstream oil and gas complex in the southern Johor state that neighbours Singapore.

The facility in Pengerang, Johor, would include oil refining and petrochemical facilities as well as a gas power plant, the paper said. The Johor state government would be a partner in the project and provide the land. Multinational energy firms would later take part as joint-venture partners, the report said.

The oil and gas facility is part of a government blueprint to attract US$444 billion in investments in strategic industries over 10 years to boost economic growth.

Petronas plans to spend up to 275 billion ringgit over the next five years as it seeks to boost its stable of high-yielding oil assets and secure profit growth. -- REUTERS






The Secret Diary of an IPL Cheerleader

MALAYSIAKINI : BEFORE departing for India, I had friends and family passing on travel tips, advice and personal experiences. Some of it good, and some of it worrying. Asthis was my first trip overseas, I needed to take it all in. But withany challenge in life, I like to have an open heart, clear head andpositive attitude. This was not just a holiday abroad, this was a job and nobody couldprepare me to become a cricket-loving, cheerleading, IPL girl but me!

Already three weeks have passed and in that time I cannot believe howa group of normal girls can become instant celebrities! Each team often girls has a manager and we all receive strict instructions from themabout safety, behaviour and reputation, as it seems girls fromprevious years did not heed the rule book!


For example, if people ask why we arein their country, we have to say that we are friends on holiday. The majority of Indians are cricket crazy, glued to their televisions,reading the papers, supporting their teams. So as the tournamentkicked off, it became pretty obvious we were not telling the truth!

On our days off, we are free to explore and take in what India has tooffer but its not always easy. You can just imagine, a group of fit,easy on the eye, western ladies cruising the congested busy streets

To the citizens,we are practically like walking porn! All eyes are on you all the time;it is complete voyeurism. The women double take, see you and thenpretend you do not exist. The men see your face, then your boobs, yourbutt, and then your boobs again! As we walk, all you hear is IPL,IPL! with a ! little h ead jingle!

Usually only after day matches there is an exclusive after party andat night is when it all happens. The music pumps, the drinks flow andthe cricketers come and go. We mingle and associate with importantpeople of the IPL wearing their finest and sexiest, sponsors of allsorts, media and fashion shows, even Indian MTV! But the real funhappens in the VIP rooms where the players and night owls can causescandal! The few Indian players we have met, such as MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharmahave been very polite and keep to themselves in the dark corners. Hotshots like Tendulkar with families at home are never present. Thelikes of Jonty Rhodes and Albie Morkel are notorious for having a good time with friends!

Ol GraemeSmith will flirt with anything while his girlfriend lurks behind him.The Aussies are fun but naughty, such as Aiden Blizzard and Dan Christian. Bythe end of a crazy evening, a certain someone had played kissingcatchers with three girls known to me only, although he has his owngirlfriend back home. He cooed to each girl, Come home with me, Ijust want to cuddle!

Oh, please! I have come to realise that cricketers are the most loose andmischievious sportsmen I have come across. Makes me wonder if I shouldworry about them more then the commoners on the street! I still have along while here, so I shall keep my tip list in mind.

Tip number 1: Beware of the cricketers!






Malaysian mobsters enlist teens on Facebook

MalaysiaKini : Malaysia has announced a major crackdown on criminal gangs using social networking sites like Facebook to enlist teenage recruits as "street fighters", reports said Wednesday.
Home minister Hishammuddin Hussein said the government was launching the offensive after a proliferation of online recruitment pages in recent months, the Star daily reported.
"The ministries, including the Information, Communications, and Culture Ministry, the (multimedia) commission and the police will be brought in to tackle the issue," he was quoted as telling the paper.

"They all have their own expertise and it is just a matter of coordinating them to achieve the goal," Hishammuddin added.
He said authorities would treat all types of organised crime -- from money laundering to drug trafficking -- with the same gravity as terrorism, the paper reported.
"They are all related and are a serious threat not only at the national level but also the international level," he said. A senior aide to the minister confirmed the comments but declined to give further details.
Local papers highlighted Tuesday how underworld groups were using Facebook and other social media to recruit members, the majority of whom are still at secondary school.
The Star quoted several students including one identified as "Aru" saying that he was invited to join the "36 or Satu Hati (United)" gang through a Facebook wall posting that granted access to the gang's website.
Potential recruits are made to fill in long questionnaires asking about previous gang fight experiences and their willingness to be trained as "street fighters".
"Once all the questions are answered, you would become their Facebook pal," he told the paper.
"There is a life membership fee of 36 ringgit ($12). Payment is made through online banking," Aru said, adding that there were also pictur! es of se nior gang members offering alcohol to entice students to join.








Najib's 'horoscope' games fail to amuse


Najib's 'horoscope' games fail to amuse
MalaysiaKini : PAS vice-president Mahfuz Omar scoffed at Prime Minister Najib Razaks recent hinting of the general election date, saying he was relying more on the right numbers rather than instilling confidence for policies to decide the date.

It seems the Prime Minister is desperate to hold the general election and relies heavily on the numbers calculation, said Mahfuz, adding that the move showed Najib had no confidence his policies and reforms could convince the people.

Numbers and dates do not mean anything, added the Pokok Sena member of parliament.

Earlier, Najib in a radio interview last week hinted the general election would be held on November 11 because of the special place of the number 11 in his life.

He cited the birthdays of his parents, his son and the anniversary of UMNO's formation (May 11), of all of which fell on the eleventh day of the month.

But Mahfuz has no time for Najib's horoscopes.

I am surprised that Najib has such belief in numbers. I wonder if he believed that the number would bring him luck," he said.

Mahfuz stressed that PAS was ready to face the general election without relying on numbers.

PAS is ready, we dont rely on numbers. We shall accept whatever number, he quipped.








Not true car prices high due to Proton, defends Dr M


Not true car prices high due to Proton, defends Dr M
MalaysiaKini : KLANG - There is no truth in claims by certain quarters that car prices are expensive in Malaysia because of the existence of the national car, Proton, says former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

"This is not true. The government has been imposing high tax for imported cars even from before so that the country does not lose out substantially in the outflow of the ringgit to foreign countries," he said at the joint launching of the Proton's Logistics Centres in Sijangkang and Tanjung Malim in Sijangkang here Tuesday.

Dr Mahathir, who is also Proton adviser, said Malaysians who bought Pproton cars were doing a charity because when Proton becomes a success story and prospered, many Malaysians would get jobs and could support their families, some of whom have big families.

"We want to see Proton playing a role as a socio machinery, helping to provide for the well-being of all Malaysians," said Dr Mahathir, who initiated the national car project when he was the prime minister.
Sliding sales


Following Proton's move to set up the logistics centres in Sijangkang and Tanjung Malim to improve the quality of proton cars before delivering the cars to the customers, Dr Mahathir said he was confident that Proton might soon capture the domestic automotive market and become the No. 1 car seller in the country.

Through the logistics centres, assembled proton cars at the main manufacturing plant in Shah Alam will be sent to the centres in Sijangkang and Tanjung Malim for testing and post-delivery inspection to ensure its quality confor! med to t he stipulated standard before delivering the cars to the dealers and for export.

Dr Mahathir said usually Proton sales clinched 80 per cent but with the existence of perdoua and other brands of imported cars from South Korea and other countries, Proton sales had taken a beating.
He said car sales in Malaysia had shot up to 570,000 in one year, the highest sales figure in Southeast Asia, as other countries might be selling more than that but their population was 10 times more than Malaysia's.
Only one person complaining
Dr Mahathir said Proton must focus attention on quality because in business image was important although some may complain of dissatisfaction.

"It may be only one person complaining but it may portray as though all Proton cars are problematic. If we don't have a good image, everybody will think that this image is not only confined to one car but the whole problem," he said.

Dr Mahathir said a blogger wrote in his blog claiming that Proton car windows cannot be lowered, and the car owner had to open his car door and get down from his car to pay toll.

'I think this is something overboard. I also drive my car through tolled roads and I've yet to see people driving proton cars getting down from their vehicles to pay toll," he said.

"Nevertheless, many believe this is what actually happened because although it is a small complaint but even a giant company must give good treatment," he added.

Umno sec-gen: General election top agenda at BN meeting on Friday


Umno sec-gen: General election top agenda at BN meeting on Friday
MalaysiaKini : Preparations for the 13th General Election will be the top agenda of the Barisan Nasional Supreme Council meeting Friday, as the coalition is set to conduct an election dry run soon, said its secretary-general Datuk Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor.
He said a paper on holding the dry run would be presented during the meeting as the coalition was expected to undergo the dry run after the Umno election dry run in July.
"We are likely to touch on the Sarawak (state) election performance, analyse the election results, touch on voter registration and I will be putting up the paper for the election dry runs.

"All these are related to the general election preparation as we have to get ready and gear up for it," he said here Wednesday.
Tengku Adnan said Barisan must prepare itself to face the general election by learning lessons from the several by-elections held and the recently-concluded Sarawak election, so that it would be able to counter the Opposition onslaught.
Voting patterns exhibited in Singapore's 14th General Election last Saturday would also be studied as part of its preparations for the general election.
Sarawak-based Barisan components are also expected to present their post-mortem reports during the meeting as the coalition will use their input in drafting strategies for the next general election.
In the Sarawak election held on April 16, Barisan won 54 out of the 71 seats, retaining its two-third majority in the state assembly.

Hishamuddin must compel Utusan to retract report....

Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng wants the Home Ministry to compel Utusan Malaysia to retract its DAP-Christian conspiracy report and issue an apology.

Lim said the weekly state exco meeting today has decided to send a complaint to Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein to urge him to initiate stern action against the Umno-owned paper for its May 7 front-page report.

The two-page letter titled 'Stern action against the false and malicious reporting by Utusan Malaysia on the purported conspiracy between the DAP and Christian pastors in Penang to establish a Christian state and to appoint a Christian prime minister' was faxed to Hishammuddin in Putrajaya today.

Lim added that the controversial report had been proven to be false following the confession by two Penang Umno assemblypersons that they did not believe the report to be true.

The duo - Hilmi Yahya (BN-Teluk Bahang) and Muhammad Farid Saad(right) - had made the confession at the state legslative assembly yesterday despite admitting that the paper was largely owned by Umno.

The duo are the first two Umno men who stated that they did not believe in the veracity of the report, that it was false news Lim said at a press conference in Komtar today.

Others seem to believe it as if it were true, he added, hinting at several ministers who commented about the report without verifying it.

Lim reiterated that the state government supported freedom of the press, but this does not ex! tend to the freedom to slander or lie. He added that citizens are allowed to have differing views or even hold opinions against the state government. But this must not be based on slander or lies, he stressed.

'Unruly behaviour should not happen'

He then related an incident where a rally was allegedly held by residents against an alternative road in Bagan, which the state was planning to construct. They rallied against me on the issue of DAP plotting to establish a Christian state... they used harsh and filty words which I cannot even mention here, he lamented.

This kind of unruly behaviour should not happen... this is not about freedom ... I would accept it if they had rallied against me over the road issue, he added.

Lim, who is DAP national secretary-general, was referring to a rally on Sunday, where state Umno Youth chief Sheikh Hussein Mydin (left in striped shirt) was present while a group of 40 people interupted the road launching event in Bagan. Sheikh Hussein has denied that Umno had masterminded the rally, saying the group who protested were residents of the low-cost flats nearby.

Meanwhile, Lim expressed regret that Utusan has failed to retract and apologise over its false allegations, which the newspaper derived from unverified sources and postings in two pro-Umno blogs on Friday.

This is despite the strong denial by the DAP and Christian groups that they were in no way involved with the plot to make amend the constitution or to install a Christian prime minister.

But since there are even Umno assemblypersons who express disbelief that the said reports, it is time for ste! rn actio n be taken against Utusan as the false news can threaten religious and racial harmony, he said.

Lim believed that the Malay daily had intentionally fabricated the conspiracy to divert attention from the rise in petrol and sugar prices.

Call to purge SNAP of opportunists

MalaysiaKini - KUCHING: Sarawak National Party (SNAP) should purge itself of political opportunists before the general election.
A former deputy president of the party, Ting Ling Kiew, said if these opportunists refused to resign voluntarily, they must be pushed out.
If they should refuse to resign voluntarily, SNAP members should immediately initiate an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) to legally change the current leadership.

As a strong supporter of SNAP for the last 30 years, I call upon the entire central working committee members to immediately resign and give way to new blood to revive and rejuvenate the party.
They should take full responsibility for the humiliation it has brought to SNAP.
They should not regard the party as their familys personal property and make use of the party to make a living, said Ting.
Ting was sacked as the deputy president of the party after the Sibu by-election last May when he called on SNAP members to support the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate Robert Lau Hui Yew instead of the Pakatan Rakyat candidate Wong Ho Leng.
At that time, SNAP was a member of Pakatan comprising PKR, DAP and PAS.
But in the run-up to the recent April 16 state election, SNAP became embroiled in a seat tussle with PKR and has since pulled out.



Leaders must atone
Ting said that many young professionals and qualified political aspirants have openly expressed their concern and their interest to join the party if the leadership changes were effected immediately.
There is no more reason for the current SNAP leadership to hold on. By now, they should realise that they are incapable of helming the party and should give way to others.
By holdin! g on to their positions, they only prove that they are greedy, selfish and power-crazy people.
Their continued presence in the party will eventually lead to the death of SNAP, Ting warned.
The results of last months state general election was something for SNAP leaders to ponder seriously.
He said being wiped out and losing their deposits in all except in one of the 27 seats contested was the most humiliating trauma ever experienced by any political party.
Responsible and decent political leaders with moral credibility should humbly atone for their sins by honourably resigning en bloc to give way to new, young and responsible leaders to take over.
Only then can the party be relevant and worthy enough for DAP to negotiate and come to terms with in the Sarawak political context, he added.
Dundang may seek re-election
Meanwhile, SNAP president Edwin Dundang told The Star that he is considering seeking a fresh mandate as party chief in the party election in August.
He took over as president after James Wong stepped down in 2002 after helming the party for more than 20 years.
Under Dundang, the party had taken part in two parliamentary elections and two state elections.
Except for winning a seat in the 2006 state election, the party did badly, and the worst was the recent state lection where its 26 candidates lost their deposits out of 27 seats it contested.
Dundang himself lost his deposit in Marudi, a former SNAP stronghold.





The bin Laden boys break their silence

Omarbin Laden,
the fourth
sonofOsama bin laden,

MalaysiaKini : The sons of Osama bin Laden have broken their silence denouncing his "arbitrary killing" and burial at sea as the United States sought to question the al-Qaeda leader's widows.
In a statement given to the New York Times, the sons asked why their father "was not arrested and tried in a court of law so that the truth is revealed to the people of the world."
"We maintain that arbitrary killing is not a solution to political problems," it said. In a separate statement posted on aditios sites, the sons also slammed the "criminal mission" ordered by US President Barack Obama which "obliterated an entire defenseless family."

Bin Laden was killed by US forces on May 2 after being tracked down to a Pakistani compound where the architect of the September 11, 2001 attacks is believed to eluded capture for years, despite a massive global hunt.
The statements denouncing his father's killing are said to have been prepared at the direction of Omar bin Laden, 30, and also called for Pakistani authorities to release the al-Qaeda leader's three wives and children.
The United States is keen to question the three women in hopes of finding out more details of al-Qaeda's reach and organisation, as well as details of bin Laden's final years.
With the pivotal US-Pakistan relationship under severe strain, the White House has called on Islamabad to help counter growing mistrust by granting American investigators access to the women.
The US administration, which is also sifting through a trove of information and int! elligenc e seized from bin Laden's compound, insisted it was making "progress" in obtaining more information from Pakistan.
"We continue to work with Pakistan to make sure we have access to any information that could contribute to our common goal, which is to continue our counterterrorism cooperation," said State Department spokesman Mark Toner.


"We believe we're making progress and we're optimistic that wall be able to work through any obstacles and increase our information sharing."
But Pakistan said it had received no formal request for access to the women. A Pakistani official merely said: "The family's under treatment, they are under protective custody."
Bin Laden's Yemeni wife, who was shot in the leg, has told Pakistani investigators that they lived in the compound where bin Laden was killed in the garrison town of , near Islamabad, for five years.
Omar bin Laden called for the family members to be released, and in the shorter statement released on aditios websites said the family had been demeaned and humiliated by his father's burial at sea.
"It is unacceptable - humanely and religiously - to dispose of a person with such importance and status among his people, by throwing his body into the sea in that way," the statement translated by the SITE monitoring group said.
Al-Qaeda again called on Muslims to avenge their leader's death, warning Americans will "pay the price" for ABM's decision to kill him, SITE said.
Al-After Media Centre, which SITE calls the exclusive online distributor of al-Qaeda propaganda, said the assassination was a "big mistake" and a "serious sin," and that Obama had brought disaster on the American people.
The New York Times meanwhile reported that the elite US Navy SEALs who gunned down bin Laden had permission to kill Pakistani forces if necessary.
The newspaper said Obama raised the prospect of a clash 10 days before the operation, resulting in two extra helicopt! ers bein g deployed to protect the assault team.
Citing a senior Obama administration official, it said the SEALs would have been allowed to fight back if engaged by hostile police officers or soldiers.
"Their instructions were to avoid any confrontation if at all possible. But if they had to return fire to get out, they were authorised to do it," the official said.
On Monday, Pakistan's Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani dismissed as "absurd" accusations that complicity or incompetence had allowed bin Laden to hide out for years in the sizable compound two hours' drive from Islamabad.
He vowed a full investigation into the security and intelligence lapses.
But Britain's Guardian newspaper reported on Tuesday that Pakistan granted US forces permission almost a decade ago to conduct a unilateral raid if Washington knew where bin Laden was hiding.
Under the deal between then-military leader General Pervez Musharraf and president George W Bush, both sides agreed that in public at least, Pakistan would vociferously protest the incursion after it happened.
Islamabad has done just that, saying its sovereignty was violated.
A spokesman for Musharraf's political party - which he runs from self-exile in London - denied the claims as "ridiculous."
"This is all nonsense," said Hammond Ali Saif, secretary general of Musharraf's All Pakistan Muslim League (ABM) party. "Mr Pervez Musharraf has already clearly stated that he did not have any understanding or agreement on this issue."





Datuk T defiled mosque with bulletproof vests,says ex-senior cop Mat Zain...

The Datuk T trio who attended a sumpah laknat ceremony by one their own had defiled the mosque where it was held by entering in bulletproof vests, claims retired senior cop Datuk Mat Zain Ibrahim.

The former city criminal investigation chief said today that Datuk T created the perception that the situation in the Masjid Amru Al-As, Sentul was unsafe.

It was as if they would be hurt or shot in a mosque. In fact, they should know that even the Malay Rulers do not wear bulletproof vests when they enter any mosque in the country.

This act has defiled the holiness of the mosque and insulted Islam, he said in a letter sent to editors today.

He said the trio businessman Datuk Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, former Malacca Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik and Perkasa treasurer-general Datuk Shuib Lazim had run afoul of Section 295 of the Penal Code.

As with the offence of screening the obscene video under Section 292, this is also an open-and-shut case. In my opinion, they have no defence, Mat Zain wrote.

A sex video allegedly featuring Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was first screened to journalists by a mysterious Datuk T at the Carcosa Seri Negara hotel on March 21, but has now leaked onto the Internet. The trio later claimed joint-responsibility for the video, before Shazryl took the oath on April 29 on behalf of the group that the opposition leader was the man in the video.

Shazryl had invited Anwar to join him during the oath-taking but the latter ignored the challenge.

Section 295 states that whoever defiles any place of worship, with the knowledge that any class of persons is likely to consider such defilement as an insult to ! their re ligion will be jailed for up to two years and/or fined.

Mat Zain, who headed the 1998 police probe into Anwars black-eye case, claimed that Shazryls actions conveyed the message that he felt more at ease and safer in a brothel than in a mosque. He didnt need to wear a bulletproof vest then, he said of Shazryls own admittance that he was the third person who was seen in the 21-minute sex video.

Instead, at the mosque, he not only needed a bulletproof vest but a few armed bodyguards as well, he said.

Mat Zain called on the government to take action over the trio or lose any justification for taking action against others who might defile or insult Islam. In this situation, the prime minister has no choice but to act according to the rule of law. But it us up to him whether to protect Eskay, Rahim and Shuib from the law or protect and defend Islam itself, he said.

Facebook 'leaked keys to account data'

MalaysiaKini : US computer security firm Symantec says Facebook accidentally left a door open for advertisers to access profiles, pictures, chat and other private data at the social network.
Symantec discovered that certain Facebook applications leaked tokens that act essentially as "spare keys" for accessing profiles, reading messages, posting to walls or other actions.
Facebook applications are web software programs that are integrated onto the leading online social network's platform.

Symantec said that 20 million Facebook applications such as games are installed every day.
The tokens were being leaked to third-party applications including advertisers and analytics platforms allowing them to post messages or mine personal information from profiles, according to Nishant Doshi of Symantec.

"Fortunately, these third-parties may not have realised their ability to access this information," Doshi said in a blog post.
"We have reported this issue to Facebook, who has taken corrective action to help eliminate this issue."
Symantec estimated that as of April, nearly 100,000 applications were giving away keys to Facebook profiles.
"We estimate that over the years, hundreds of thousands of applications may have inadvertently leaked millions of access tokens to third parties," Doshi said.
Facebook confirmed the problem, which was discovered by Doshi and Symantec colleague Candid Wueest, according to the computer security firm.
There was no reliable estimate of how many tokens have been leaked since the release of Facebook applications in 2007.
Despite whatever fix Facebook has put in place, token data may still ! be store d in files on third-party computers, Symantec warned.
"Concerned Facebook users can change their Facebook passwords to invalidate leaked access tokens," Doshi said.
"Changing the password invalidates these tokens and is equivalent to 'changing the lock' on your Facebook profile."




Topless Coffee Shop


MalaysiaKini : A coffee shop with topless waitresses, which has caused a storm of protest in a small town, has been forced to close after it put up a 'boobies wanted' sign. Grand View Topless Coffee Shop in Vassalboro, Maine, hit the headlines when it opened in 2009, offering to serve customers semi-nude.


And despite a wave of protest from local campaigners in its home town of fewer than 5,000 people - and one high profile arson attack - the shop had until now, managed to keep business going. But the controversial store's topless waitresses will finally have to get dressed and leave after town officials ruled that it has been putting up signs illegally.

Bosses insist the order has nothing to do with the shop's nudity policy - or the fact that the signs offered a topless car wash and advertised: 'Boobies wanted'. They say simply putting up the new signs without permission violated zoning rules.

Donald Crabtree, the owner of Grand View Coffee Shop, which uses topless male and female waiters, said he had given up after fighting to exist for two years.

'I wanted to have some fun; I wanted to see people smile,' he told local paper the Maine Morning Sentinel. 'I started the topless coffee shop to do that, and it did. But now my smile's gone.

'I've fought that fight for more than two years now and no matter how hard I try to make this work, somebody sabotages me.'

'These people are bound and determined to shut you down. I'm singled out, but I'm just trying to make a living like everyone else.'

The shop opened in 2009 to a storm of protest from its rural community and prompted Vassalboro and many other communities to bring in rules to regulate where and when sexually or! iented b usinesses could operate. A few months later, in June 2009, the store's original location was burnt to the ground.

The man charged for being responsible for the arson, Raymond Bellavance Jr., who was in a relationship with one of the waitresses, is still awaiting trial.

Crabtree, 43, who has since run the business from a trailer, finally decided to close down after he was forced to take down the nude car wash and 'boobies wanted' signs.

The town's code officer had given him a week to remove them or face legal action. The local Reverend, Steve Rogers ,of the Vassalboro Baptist Church, said he was glad the 'upsetting' business was to close.

He said: 'I hate to see a business disappear, but that's really not the type of business Vassalboro needs.

'It's had an effect on the community and upset people. I think the majority of the town is going to be very pleased it's shutting down and hopefully whoever buys it will run a more family-friendly business.'

Others were not so pleased. Regular customer Herman Jellison, 47, of Whitefield, said he will miss the shop.

'I don't blame him,' Jellison said of Crabtree. 'This town's been harassing him since he's been here. People really need to mind their own business.'

Dan Feeney, Vassalboro's code officer, went to inspect the offending signs on April 26 after receiving complaints. But he insisted the order was made because the signs were bigger than Crabtree's local permit allows.

'It's not what's on the signs; it's the signs themselves,' Feeney said.




Lagi Maklumat Berkaitan Percubaan Membunuh Anwar Ibrahim

NOTA EDITOR: Kalau kereta Proton kita boleh percayalah skrew ni tercabut, skrew tu tercabut. Tapi ni kereta Mercedez. Skrew kecik dalam tempat memandu pun susah nak tercabut, inikan pula skrew pada brek (yang amat penting dan berkait dengan keselamatan).

Cukup saya katakan, percubaan membunuh Anwar semasa Anwar masih Timbalan Perdana Menteri lagi.





Pemandu dakwa kesan usaha mahu bunuh Anwar, brek kereta diusik
TERKINI @ 06:16:05 PM 10-05-2011

May 10, 2011


PETALING JAYA, 10 Mei Pemandu Ketua Umum Pakatan Rakyat Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim mendakwa pihaknya mengesan usaha untuk membunuh majikannya dengan cuba merosakkan sistem brek kereta Mercedes Benz dipandunya, bulan lalu.

Laporan polis dibuat di balai polis Tropicana di sini petang ini oleh pemandu Anwar (gambar), Abdullah Sani Said.

Balai polis itu terletak beberapa pintu dari ibu pejabat PKR di sini.

Abdullah Sani, 51, yang merupakan pemandu bagi Anwar sejak 28 tahun lalu mengesan usaha itu pada 19 April lalu selepas satu insiden ketika dalam perjalanan balik ke Kuala Lumpur dari Perak, memandu Mercedes Benz S350 bernombor KCD 77.

Katanya, kereta itu dipinjamkan kepada Anwar oleh rakan beliau.

Ketika kejadian kata Abdullah Sani, dia dan seorang pembantu Anwar iaitu Mohd Nurol Sayah baru sahaja mengambil isteri Anwar Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail dan Setiausaha Politik Menteri Besar Selangor, Faekah Husin dari satu majlis PKR di Chemor dekat Ipoh.

Ketika dalam perjalanan balik ke Kuala Lumpur menerusi Lebuh Raya Utara-Selatan kira-kira 1 tengah ha! ri, sebe lum susur keluar Sungkai dekat KM353, sebuah lori secara tiba-tiba memotong ke arah laluan kanan dan memaksa saya menekan brek kereta, katanya dalam laporan polis dibuat hari ini.

Abdullah Sani berkata, ketika dia cuba menekan brek keretanya, Mercedes S350 dipandunya mula menggetar dengan kasar.

Saya dengar bunyi seolah-olah ada yang bunyi kasar dari bahagian belakang.

Secara tiba-tiba tayar belakang seolah-solah terkunci dan tersekat, memaksa saya sedaya upaya memandu kereta ke arah bahu jalan, katanya.
Kata Abdullah Sani, pemeriksaannya mendapati ada serpihan cakera brek kereta yang telah berpecah di atas jalan.

Katanya, dia dengan segera menghubungi kereta tunda di Slim River dan kereta itu dibawa ke bengkel RCY Benz di Glenmarie, Shah Alam untuk pemeriksaan.

Di bengkel, kata Abdullah Sani, dia dimaklumkan oleh mekanik bahawa cakera brek bahagian belakang kehilangan satu pin bolt, yang lazimnya berperanan sebagai penyokong kaliper brek.

Saya dimaklumkan mustahil bagi bolt terkeluar tanpa diusik, katanya.

Kata Abdullah Sani, berdasarkan penjelasan mekanik, adalah jelas bahawa ada pihak yang telah cuba untuk mengusik kereta dengan matlamat mahu menyebabkan kecederaan atau membunuh ketua pembangkang atau anggota keluarganya.

Dan, atas nasihat mekanik, ini menunjukkan bahawa ada elemen sabotaj, dengan melihat kenderaan ini selalu digunakan oleh Anwar, katanya lagi.

Kata Abdullah Sani, dia khuatir tentang keselamatan dirinya dan ketuanya, oleh itu berharap polis akan menjalankan siasatan dengan segera.

Aduan Abdullah Sani disusuli dengan laporan daripada mekanik bengkel, Azman Hassan.

Dalam deklarasinya, Azman mengesahkan mustahil bagi pin bolt untuk terkeluar dengan sendirinya tanpa diusik oleh mana-mana pihak.

Saya mendapati punca insiden disebabkan oleh kehilangan satu pin bolt pada kaliper brek.

Untuk pengetahuan anda, perlu ada dua pin bolt. Kehilangan salah satunya yang menyebabkan keseluruhan sistem brek se! belah ka nan di bahagian belakang kereta rosak, katanya.

Berdasarkan pengalamannya, kata Azman, yang sudah 10 tahun bekerja sebagai mekanik dan pakar dalam kerja-kerja menyelenggara kereta Mercedes Benz selama tujuh tahun, mustahil bagi pin bolt terkeluar dengan sendirinya.

Di luar balai polis, wakil Lawyers for Liberty Murni Hidayah Anuar yang menemai Abdullah Sani berkata, dia membuat laporan kira-kira sebulan selepas kejadian kerana mereka menunggu laporan siasatan mekanik.

Abdullah Sani berkata, dia pernah memeriksa sistem brek kereta itu Oktober lalu dan tidak mengesan sebarang kekurangan pada kenderaan itu.


Are you expecting something different from the Pig Defender ?

Must they resort to this every time?


'Remember how Mahathir played up the race and religion card when Umno Baru was contesting against Semangat 46? It worked for Umno then.'

Blogger insists 'Christian conspiracy' must be probed

Don't Play God: I'm afraid that things don't look well for our nation. Every time Umno is under pressure, they will play up the race and religion card. And sad to say, the Malays respond to it.

Remember how Dr Mahathir Mohamad played up the race and religion card when Umno Baru was contesting against Semangat 46? It worked for Umno then. Now Umno is again using the same tactic.

Forget this Talent Corp. I am encouraging my children to look pursue their future elsewhere. This race and religion card will always be used by Umno for the next 100 years whenever Umno is under attack.

See how Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein and Information Minister Rais Yatim quickly cashed in on this.

David Dass: It is clear that PM Najib Razak should intervened and brought some sanity to the situation. No one should be allowed to toy with race and religious issues with so much casualness. We have come this far as a peaceful and harmonious nation.

There is no question. The majority of Malaysians are peace-loving. The majority of Malaysians are law abiding. The majority of Malaysians have respect for our diversity of race and religion.

But there are fringe groups that have a distorted view of the world. They thrive on conflict. They love the adrenaline flow that comes from making blood-curdling speeches to ignorant people. These people must be stopped.

They must not be licensed to incite and foment people to riot. Democracy is about freedom and non-violent processes to bring about change. We have a system that works. We should not risk it by being careless.

Anonymous_3e06: We must probe this matter to the fullest, and you, Zakhir Mohamed aka Big Dog, also must be probed to the fullest. What is your motive in writing these articles? What are the facts? Are you a credible writer whose interest is in truth and not geared towards racism and religious hatred?

Let the police begin their work and look at it from all angles and also to question you and your sources. We must put a stop to this. However, we will not do it your way because that is the way to disaster. Maybe that is what you and your people want.

Anonymous_5fb: On what basis has this Big Dog come out with these accusations? He should in fact provide the police the evidence to support his accusation. It is easy for him to suggest an investigation to find the truth by saying, "If it is true, then it should be dealt with by taking appropriate action".

What if you cannot provide any evidence? If your accusation has no basis/evidence, what kind of 'appropriate action' should be taken against you? Now that the accused have denied your accusation, please show your evidence. If not, you are fit to be named 'Big Dog'.

Anonymous_3de1: When faced with a possible lawsuit, Utusan Malaysia is now engaged in doublespeak. As for the rabble-rouser Zakhir, he will still get away with impunity because Perkasa has come out in support of his trash. The police will not bother to investigate his fairy tale because the moronic home minister has already presumed the story to be true.

Instead, Jelutong MP Jeff Ooi and the pastors will be hauled up by the police to prove their innocence. This is how 1Malaysia works. Instead of mending its ways, BN has now further antagonised Christian BN supporters and driven them into opposition arms.

BN, do your worse and pay the price come the next GE.

Sarajun Hoda: I am feeling very uncomfortable. More and more people on the streets are saying the general election is round the corner and PM Najib is purposely allowing chaos so that top opposition leaders would be locked up to guarantee BN a safer win.

I wish this is not true. Najib has more integrity than that. Let's see what he does to Utusan, Pembela, Perkasa and idiots like Big Dog.

Anonymous_4182: Surely the general Muslim community is not amused by this latest fiasco. To be associated with these characters with embarrassing low intellect who think that they are doing Malaysia a service would send a shiver up the spine of everybody, be they Muslim or non-Muslim.

If the cabinet ministers think that this will get more votes in the GE13 through this episode, or by allowing government-controlled papers to run unsubstantiated brainless provocative articles, they must be totally underestimating the rakyat's intelligence.

This is another shot in the foot for BN, just like the porno tape.

KJ John: The police should investigate the facts and if found to be untrue or malicious, they should charge Zakhir under the relevant seditious nature of the accusation. I am very upset as a Christian against this false and baseless accusation.

Quigonbond: No one in the right mind would want to make Malay/Muslims angry as they are already Malaysia's majority population, and we know how easily some could be incited by renegade forces within Umno on that fateful day in May 1969.

I have little doubt that Utusan and Big Dog are under orders from forces within Umno to incite hatred towards Christians. Coming close to May 13, which by the way is Black Friday, it is not impossible for the public to perceive this as a dangerous concoction by Umno/Perkasa/Pembela to provoke a racial riot, arrest opposition leaders under the ISA, and then call for general elections when the opposition is greatly disadvantaged.

All Malaysians who are outraged with this madness must resist the temptation to lash out at anger towards Utusan/Umno/MCA/Perkasa/Pembela and instead choose to speak in measured tones. Just remember that come general election, you use your votes effectively to silence these extremists/opportunists once and for all.

Umno is Utusan's 'Big Dog'

'Umno is Utusan's master. What Utusan does is a calculated move initiated by Umno. All these ravings are targeted to shore up support for the party.'

Blogger insists 'Christian conspiracy' must be probed

Cannon: It is the same filthy tactic of Umno and Utusan Malaysia. First, make some inflammatory accusations, citing some unproven sources for their wild allegations. Then, smear their opponents and shout for them to be investigated.

Well, the Christian community have been patient in the face of vicious provocations. They remain calm and refuse to play into the hands of their enemies. Have the PDRM finished its investigation? Have the police found anything?

Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein and Information Minister Rais Yatim, who were quick to jump the gun to score cheap publicity as 'jaguh kampung', where are they now? We challenge the authorities to announce their findings as soon as possible and establish who - which party(s) - should actually be charged with sedition.

Utusan and Umno villains can do their worst, but they will fail to win support from the people who are increasingly repulsed by their depravity.

Gerard Samuel Vijayan: How can 'Big Dog' publish such rubbish on his website without verifying his sources and looking at the evidence himself? Did this blogger attend the alleged forum or does he have an eyewitness account of what was said?

Does he have a recording of the event where these alleged statements were made? If no, how can any self-respecting blogger or newspaper publish such a story that is incendiary in nature given the multiracial and multireligious composition of this country and the entrenched status of Islam as the official religion.

What conspiracy is there if the churches, the pastors and the guests who attended the function have denied that such statements were made?

So does this mean that every Christian gathering including mass and services are now assumed to be plots and conspiracies to undermine Islam? Do we ban such worship? BN can kiss goodbye to the 2.5 million Christian voters in GE13.

David Dass: We make ourselves vulnerable when we encourage such irresponsible and mischievous reporting and behaviour.

We allow the kooks in our society to exploit ignorance and fear. We encourage irrational behaviour and allow the flames of religious fervour to be fanned dangerously by simply allowing those with their own agendas to plan and implement dangerous strategies.

What is it that we want for the nation? Some Malaysians actually think that we will be better of if non-Muslims left the country? Is that a feasible proposition?

Why do some keep saying that the position of Islam is being threatened as are the special rights of the Malays when we all know that those rights are entrenched provisions of the constitution and will remain entrenched as long as the Malays want them entrenched.

There can be no federal government in power in the country without Malays playing a substantial role and no government, whether state or federal, can rule without protecting the position of Malays.

Not Confused: What hypocritical rubbish. Everyone knows that Utusan is a racist, bigoted rag whose circulation is thankfully declining to near death (and the sooner it dies, the better). It is these arrogant, self-important egotistical idiots in Perkasa, Pembela and other similar NGOs which need investigating for stirring up religious hatred.

Malay-Muslims are in a significant and clear majority in Malaysia, but continue to claim to be under siege as if Christianity could ever become the state religion in Malaysia. As usual, they are all scared of their own shadows and the extremist groups should be put away somewhere out of harm's way.

Yap Chee Seng: Umno is Utusan's master. What Utusan does is a calculated move initiated by Umno. All these ravings are targeted at the Malays to shore up support for the party. Expect these extremist racist raving and frothing will become more and more frequent as the 13th general election date nears. And it will be more outrageous each time.

Constitutional Pendatang: Surely Christians have much better things to do than undermine the official religion of this country.

James Dean: Indeed, this is a national security issue and we cannot allow this to go on any longer. I urge the government to carry out a total and comprehensive probe by forming a royal commission of inquiry.

There two important issues here. One is to inquire whether there truly is an attempt by the Christians to turn Malaysia into a Christian country. Two, to inquire into whether there are certain groups in Malaysia instigating one group against another.

Proarte: The common denominator is Umno. Blogger 'Big Dog' is an unashamed Umno supporter and has been rabble rousing for years. Perkasa is sponsored by Dr Mahathir Mohamad to promote his 'divide and rule' strategy which he learnt form the colonial powers.

The issues which these entities raise are invariably synthetic and are aimed at instilling fear and promoting a 'Ketuanan Melayu' and 'Ketuanan Islam' mindset. Its audience is both the Malays and non-Malays.

The script for the Malays is Islam and their Umno conferred 'supremacy' is under threat thus this makes them 'angry and violent'. For the non-Malays, the message is you must accept Malay dominance even if they humiliate you because you do not have the same rights as Malays and they will become violent towards you if you push your luck.

The aim is to reduce Malays to being paranoid and insecure individuals who feel ever so grateful to Umno for giving them a 'superior status' even though Umno robs the Malays and the country blind. Kesian Melayu!

Tongkat Ali: These bloggers and Utusan are cyber terrorists, and they will cause unrest and bring down the country if left uncheck. I am sure our Malay brothers and sisters will not condone this dangerous acts to undermine years of peaceful and religious harmony enjoy by the rakyat overnight.

Our authorities have to act fast and take actions against these cyber terrorists before it is too late.

A Voter: Just because a blogger say this nonsense, the whole of Malaysia gets worked up? This is ridiculous. Leave this guy alone, and pray for God's forgiveness for him.

Anwar’s driver claims murder attempt on boss

May 10, 2011

File photo of a Mercedes S350. Abdullah Sani claimed that the brakes of a similar model of the car had been tampered with.

PETALING JAYA, May 10 — PKR de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s driver today alleged a sinister murder attempt on his boss after discovering that the brakes of the Mercedes Benz he was driving had been tampered with last month.

Abdullah Sani Said, the 51-year-old driver who has worked with Anwar for 28 years since the latter was still the deputy prime minister, lodged a police report on the incident at the Tropicana police station outside the party’s national headquarters here this evening.

Abdullah Sani said he made the discovery on April 19 following an incident on his journey back to Kuala Lumpur from Perak in the Mercedes Benz S350 with the number plate KCD 77 which, he said, was on loan to Anwar from a close friend.

At the time, said Abdullah Sani, he and another aide, Mohd Nurol Sayah, had just ferried Anwar’s wife Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and Faekah Husin, the political secretary to the Selangor mentri besar, to a PKR programme in Chemor, just outside Ipoh.

“On our journey back to KL via the North-South Expressway at about 1pm, before the exit to Sungkai near the 353km, a lorry suddenly cut into the right lane and forced me to jam on my brakes,” he said in the report.

He said the moment he applied the brakes, the Mercedes S350 began to vibrate violently.

“I heard the sound of something shattering at the back.

“Suddenly, the back tyres of the car felt like they were locked. This forced me to try my best to navigate the car towards the road shoulder,” he said.

He said he saw swerve marks and broken pieces of the car’s brake disc on the road.

He said he called for a tow truck and the vehicle was taken to the RCY Benz workshop in Glenmarie, Shah Alam for inspection.

At the workshop, Abdullah Sani said he was told by the mechanic that the back brake disc of the car was missing a “pin bolt” that is used to support the “brake caliper”.

“I was also told that it was impossible for the bolt to be detached without being tampered with,” he said.

He said that based on the mechanic’s explanation, it was clear that “certain parties” had deliberately tampered with Anwar’s car with the intention to “hurt or murder” the opposition leader or his family members.

“And on advice from the mechanic, this shows that there were elements of sabotage here, seeing as this vehicle is often used by Anwar,” he said.

He said he feared for his safety and that of his boss, adding that he hoped the police would initiate investigations immediately.

Abdullah Sani’s report was also accompanied by a signed diagnosis of the incident by Azman Hassan, the mechanic from the workshop.

In his declaration, Azman confirmed that it was “impossible” for the “pin bolt” to detach on its own without being tampered with.

“I found that the source of the incident was because of the one missing pin bolt which attaches the brake caliper.

“For your information, there should be two pin bolts. It was because of this missing one that caused the entire back right braking system of the car to be destroyed.

“In my experience as a mechanic for the past 10 years and specialising in repairs on Mercedes Benzes for the past seven years, it is impossible for the pin bolt to detach on its own,” he said.

Outside the police station later, lawyer Murni Hidayah Anuar, who accompanied Abdullah Sani, told reporters that the report was lodged nearly one month after the incident as they were awaiting the result of the mechanic’s investigation.

Abdullah Sani also said he last checked the car’s brakes last October and had not discovered any faults with the vehicle.

He noted that during the function in Chemor, Anwar’s car had been surrounded by many people but doubted if they could have so quickly tampered with the brakes.

Utusan Meloya Juara Lucah...

Tuan Guru Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat melahirkan rasa hairan dengan sikap akhbar Umno, Utusan Malaysia yang melaporkan kecaman terhadap Datuk Seri Anwar ekoran dakwaan menggelar Perdana Menteri sebagai 'Pandi kutty'.

Beliau mempersoal, bagaimana Utusan, sebuah akhbar yang menjadi juara penyebaran kelucahan kepada masyarakat kini mahu menjuarai adab sopan.

"Saya terbaca tajuk muka depan akhbar Utusan Malaysia hari ini, "Anwar Dikecam," kononnya kerana guna kata-kata kesat serang Perdana Menteri.

"Hairan saya, akhbar yang menyebarkan segala bentuk kelucahan dalam masyarakat hari ini menjadi juara adab sopan?"katanya di Facebook.

Utusan di muka depannya hari ini meletakkan tajuk 'Anwar dikecam' dengan membawa beberapa pandangan individu membidas sikap Anwar yang didakwa menggelar Datuk Seri Najib dengan gelaran Pandi Kutty.

Antara lain, akhbar Umno itu mengambil pandangan Presiden Perkasa Datuk Ibrahim Ali dan Bekas Ketua AMK yang menyertai Umno, senator Ezam Mohd Noor. Najib ketika mengulas laporan itu pula berkata, beliau tetap tidur lena (jenera) walaupun dituduh dengan perkataan itu.

Mengulas lanjut, Nik Aziz yang juga Menteri Besar Kelantan berkata, gesaan MCA agar Utusan dipulaukan, sangat tepat. "Tepat sungguh gesaan MCA agar Utusan Malaysia dipulaukan,"tulisnya lagi.

Sebelum ini, Utusan juga dikecam banyak pihak ekoran tindakan keterlaluan akhbar itu menyiarkan di muka depan laporan serta gambar berhubung isu video seks yang dikaitkan dengan Anwar yang juga Ketua Umum PKR. Turut dikecam dan dilebelkan sebagai media lucah adalah TV3. Dalam pada itu, Anwar hari ini menyifatkan serangan terbaru isu Pandi Kutty terhadapnya itu adalah fitnah terbaru Umno BN.

Menurut laporan TV Selangor yang merakam penuh ceramah Anwar di Klang, Sabtu lalu itu, ketua pembangkang itu tidak langsung menghemburkan perkataan itu terhadap Najib.



Berikut adalah petikan ucapan Anwar yang dimaksudkan di Dewan Hamzah Klang itu apabila perkataan pandi kutty disebut:

"Maknanya kalau kita lawan dengan parti yang terdesak, mereka menjurus ke arah perbuatan terdesak termasuk video. Azizah kata sekarang jangan makan banyak sebab nanti sama dengan dalam video. Ini betul-betul pandi kutty."

Pada ceramah itu juga, Anwar berkata perkataan pandi kutty mungkin dianggap kasar namun mengingatkan hadirin di ceramah bahawa tidak ada dalam mana-mana budaya di dunia ini menggunakan taktik-taktik kotor seperti video lucah untuk menjatuhkan pemimpin politik.

"Ada orang kata Anwar cakap kasar. Macam mana tidak kasar. Ini kerja gila. Anda tahu sejarah India, Cina, Melayu, Arab, adakah anda lawan politik begitu kotor macam Datuk Najib buat? Tidak ada, katanya dalam ceramah itu.

Najib: Anwars pandi kutti remark does not disturb my sleep

"If Najib has difficulty sleeping, we are sure Teoh Beng Hock's wife and Altantuya's sons too have had sleepless nights. So too, I am sure, have the children of the Opposition Leader after reading the sort of gutte! r politi cs coming out from Utusan, which I would remind everbody is owned by UMNO and answerable to the UMNO president, who is Najib Razak. Not to mention Christians around the country after the latest 'special' reporting' from Utusan on a Christian PM." - Tian Chua.

Thai historian to be charged with insulting monarchy

MalaysiaKini : BANGKOK - THAI authorities drew anger from academics on Tuesday after they summoned a prominent historian to face a charge of insulting the monarchy, following his public calls for the institution to be reformed.

Somsak Jeamteerasakul, a lecturer at Thammasat University in Bangkok, has been called up to be formally accused of lese majeste on Wednesday morning, Police Colonel Mana Phaochauy told AFP, without giving further details.

Lese majeste is a serious offence in Thailand, punishable by up to 15 years in jail, and the monarchy is an extremely sensitive subject in the politically divided nation, which is preparing for a tough election fight on July 3.


Somsak confirmed late on Monday he received the summons 'but they didn't give any details about what I have done or when I violated the law,' he told AFP.

Late last month, the academic insisted his eight-point proposal for reforming the monarchy - the framework for a controversial lecture he gave in December - did not call for the institution's overthrow.

'Each and every one of my public statement(s) and written work is premised on the assumption of the continuation of the monarchy,' he said in a statement published by independent news website Prachatai. -- AFP





Anwar's car sabotaged...

NONEAnwar Ibrahim's driver of 28 years has claimed that there has been a plot to sabotage the PKR de facto leader's car.

The Mercedes Benz S350 belonging to an unidentified friend of Anwar's was tampered with, said Abdullah Sani Said, 51, adding that there could be a sinister motive against the politician.

Recounting the mishap, Abdullah Sani said he had been driving Anwar's wife and PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and the Selangor menteri besar's political secretary Faekah Husin, from a party function in Chemor, Perak, late at night on April 19.

They were on the North-South Highway when a lorry overtaking them forced Abdullah Sani to slam on the brakes.

However, the car shook suddenly. This was followed by the sound of an explosion that came from the back of the car.

Abdullah Sani said he barely managed to steer the car to the side of the highway despite the very stiff rear tyre on the right.

Lodging a police report today at the Tropicana police station, a short walk from the PKR headquarters in Petaling Jaya, Abdullah Sani said he found broken pieces of the brake disc all over the highway, rendering the car completely immobile.

'Plot to harm Anwar'

However, according to his police report, the bigger shock came back when his regular mechanic told him that a caliper guide bolt pin to support the disc brake had been removed.

"I was told that it is impossible for the bolt to come off without someone removing it," Abdullah Sani (centre in photo) said in his report.

"The car was in good condition when we started driving it and since it is also impossible for the bolt to come off without someone removing it, I believe that someone did this deliberately to hurt or ! kill Anw ar .

NONE

"Based on what the mechanic told me, there are also elements of sabotage, considering that the vehicle is regularly used by Anwar."

Attaching a statement by the mechanic with his police report, Abdullah Sani said: "I am worried for my safety, as well as that of Anwar's family, if this were to happen again."

When approached later by reporters, Abdullah Sani said that the last time he changed the brake pads for the car in October, the mechanic did not see any damage then.

He added that he waited three weeks after the incident to lodge a police report because both he and the mechanic wanted to be certain about the element of sabotage first.

Declining to speculate as to who may have tampered with the brakes, Abdullah Sani said: "You would have to know how to look for the pin bolt."
