I do not know about we but we try hard to equivocate removing a saman.I don't see a indicate of profitable RM150 for parking in a N0 PARKING zone just because we can. In order to equivocate removing a saman, we do not kick a red light, we do not stand in park, we try not to mangle a speed limit, as well as we have certain we have a current driving license as well as main road tax. The result: we haven't been removing a sheet for we do not know how long.
Now if we have been a Rempit as well as do not respect a trade light, we stand in play ground as if your bapak's main road as well as provide a main road similar to an F1 circuit, as well as then we get caught as well as have been released trade court order as well as may face harsher penalties, we am contemptible we will not get any sympathy from me.
Rempit Hero. Unfortunately, we do have politicians who have been entrance tosupport these Rempits. Politicians similar to Bill Leong (left). He is revelation we which there's an immorality swindling to saman all of us, as well as thathalf a income picked up will go to some in isolation concern related to a political party
What he should be revelation us is simple: Don't mangle a law as well as we won't get any trade summon.

Penang Chief Minister Answers The Star
July 9, 2012
The Penang Chief Minister responds to The Star's Smear Campaign as well as Joceline Tan: "We have Nothing to Hide"
by Lim Guan Eng
The Star has declared open fight with a Penang PR state supervision with another front-page story as well as four inside pages, together with a paper page upon a "crying hills" today. This is a desperate try to whitewash a past sins of a prior BN supervision in commendatory mountain projects upon top of 250 feet.
By becoming different a prior title title of a "dying hills" to a "crying hills", this already an acknowledgment by a Star which a Star indulged in hyperbolic excesses not supported by facts.
The timing of this ultimate conflict by a Star is suspicious. Coming during a time when The Star's domestic masters, MCA, is confronting open enmity for conducting a cowardly allegation campaign swelling lies about passionate contravention as well as even assault by me as well as my wife. Clearly this is an try to confuse attention from MCA's unsuccessful allegation campaign, MCA President Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek's past passionate escapades as well as excuse a prior supervision from blame so as to assistance BN win behind Penang.
Whether a Star will succeed in a domestic bulletin to taint a immature credentials of a PR state supervision as well as transparent a path of a lapse of a BN state supervision which caused a problems in a first place, will ulitmately rely upon a voters.
Whilst PR is peaceful to confess to mistakes made, you exclude to bear ! a sins a s well as compensate a cost for a process decisions finished by a prior supervision in commendatory mountain projects upon top of 250 feet. Instead of beating up a present PR state supervision for a crime it did not commit, since has a Star consistently unsuccessful to chase a prior state supervision for giving 37 such approvals before 2008?
The Star's claims of forthrightness as well as which it is not singling out PR for criticism is as diverting as PERKASA's claims which they have been not racists. If a Star is just in criticising a prior administration department approvals of mountain projects, since did a Star kept wordless 37 times when a prior BN state supervision gave 37 approvals to mountain projects upon top of 250 feet before 2008. Did a Star print an paper 37 times as well as gave a 5 page coverage together with front-page before 2008 opposite these 37 approvals?
Neither did a Star apologise when their columnist Joceline Tan was held fibbing which a Yang di Pertua Majlis Perbandaran Pulau Pinang (MPPP) Patahiyah binti Ismail had contradicted me, when Patahiyah had obviously said which a 19 approvals since after 2008 were special projects approved by a prior BN state government!
Further, since did a Star not highlight those mountain projects in BN-controlled states as well as pick usually upon Penang. Unlike a Federal government's EPU discipline of defining a mountain as surpassing 500 feet, a Penang discipline have fixed a building line during 250 feet. Unfortunately a prior BN supervision disregarded these discipline by not usually commendatory 37 projects before 2008 though also gave capitulation for those upon top of 250 feet as special projects.
Neither did a Star give front page diagnosis criticising a prior BN state supervision for commendatory speci! al proje cts, where such mountain projects upon top of 250 feet so classified cannot be deserted only since they have been upon top of 250 feet.
Patahiyah had explained which a 19 approvals by MPPP for heights upon top of 250 feet after 2008 fell under a special projects category as well as had to be processed according to normal geo-technical guidelines. MPPP cannot reject them upon a basis which they were upon top of 250 feet.
As a PR state supervision cannot cancel these mountain projects, to lessen a situation, a state supervision has resorted to commanding a many stringent discipline in a country which were drawn up by a hillslope geo-technical committee headed by Oxford-trained operative Dr Gue See Saw. These geo-technical discipline were imposed retrospectively most to a melancholy of developers, some who threatened legal action.
Whilst a state supervision sympathised with a melancholy of those mountain projects as well as a problems of those residents influenced by a ongoing development, there is nothing a state supervision can do unless a drastic step of cancelling a project is taken. To do so entails remuneration of hundreds of millions or even billions of ringgit which would bankrupt a state.
The Penang PR state supervision will not lead Penang towards bankruptcy. Perhaps a BN Federal supervision should come brazen as well as bear these remuneration losses for cancelling a mountain projects since BN were obliged for commendatory them in a first place. Would a Star be peaceful to fool around a front-page story dire direct of remuneration from a BN Federal government?
Or would a Star direct which a developers stop a mountain projects? Isn't this sheer hypocrisy of a Star to be so chummy with developers of these mountain projects during their Star Property Fair in Penang as well as yet brave not criticise a developers in name for carrying mountain projects.
Finally, it is not The Star though a electorate of Penang who will confirm either a PR state supervision have finished a part to strengthen a hills by not commendatory any mountain projects upon top of 250 feet. The PR state supervision is peaceful to be punished for not commendatory any mountain projects upon top of 250 feet as well as would respect a voters' preference if they confirm to certitude BN again despite BN giving all these approvals.
We appreciate those Star reporters as well as arch editors who have been from Penang as well as care about a state. Penang welcomes you behind as well as you will work tough to make Penang a immature state, an international heritage city with a vibrant art culture. But these so-called concerns receptive to advice vale when a Star distorts a truth as well as practises double-standards.
The PR state supervision will continue to directly rivet with NGOs as well as even Star's Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai upon a background, a standing as well as any associated issues. Since Wong is talking about a rape of a dear hills, you would like to know who is you do a raping as well as what steps MPPP is taking.
As you have nothing to hide, we have asked Yang di Pertua MPPP Patahiyah binti Ismail to rivet with NGOs as well as influenced parties. That is since a state supervision had educated MPPP to declassify all a mins about approvals for mountain projects upon top of 250 feet. we am extending an open call in to Wong Chun Wai to an open dialogue with me as well as my MPPP officials upon this mountain issue. we await his response.

Borders: JAWI wants a Media Circus
by Din Merican
My wife, Dr. Kamsiah, as well as you went to Borders during Mid-Valley this afternoon since you longed for to squeeze a duplicate of former US Secretary of State General Colin L. Powell's ultimate book titled It Worked for Me: In Life as well as Leadership.
This is not his domestic memoirs, during slightest not yet, but a tellurian interest story of a really famous American General as well as Statesman.
The book papers General Powell's clear experiences, recollections, sober reflections as well as lessons he learned as a soldier, a Four Star General of a Army as well as Joint Chief of US Armed Forces, National Security Advisor in a White House, as well as Secretary of State in a Bush 2 Administration.
Knowing General Powell during my years during The George Washington University School of Business (1968-1970), this book has special meaning to me.
His personal stories exhibit a lot about in effect leadership, conviction, tough work as well as respect for others. General Powell is a reflective, self-effacing as well as common soldier-leader who became one of America's many dignified open figures. That is no mean feat for a man from South Bronx, New York City.
Meeting Nik Raina during Borders, Mid Valley
We got a reward when a Store Manager Merchanising, came to serve us. Her name is Nik Raina Binti Nik Abdul Aziz. She thanked me openly for giving her box with JAWI over a sale of Irshad Manji's book (Bahasa Malaysia version) worldwide exposure.
Nik appeared calm as well as picked up since her box was listened in a Syariah Court. She said that her box is being handled by a efficient as well as superb lawyer, Rosli Dahlan who is well known to readers of this blog in tie with a box of a former Director, Commercial Crimes Investigation Department of a Royal Malaysian Police, Dato Ramli Yusuff.
Nik told me my wife, Dr. Kamsiah as well as you that she was charged by JAWI because she was a many comparison Muslim in a use of Borders Mid-Valley.
Her trainer is a really nice Chinese lady, Ms Yau Su Peng, but since she is non-Muslim, she was not touched by JAWI.
It is Nik's set-back to be around when JAWI officers raided a bookshop in a upmarket Mid-Valley Shopping Center. It is a box of being during a right place during a wrong time.
She told my wife as well as you that JAWI officials accused her of being a lesbian since she was not married, as well as after they altered their tag when they detected that she had recently married. Now she is, according to them, a bisexual. What's next if this caper do not work.
What a playground with these characters as proprietor clowns. They do not realise how someone, a young woman during that, who is being put through an emotional millstone feels. It is not all fun as well as games, as well as you as lay persons all know instinctively that she is not guilty, as well as Borders has not damaged a law.
Borders detected that JAWI had created to a Registrar of a Syariah Court upon Jun 27, 2012 to assist a box upon a basement that it had turn a "matter of open interest" as well as to "clarify a facts with a media as well as bloggers". It said a box should be listened some time August (see letter below).
If there is any open interest in this Nik Raina case, you think, it is since you wish to know if probity will overcome opposite those who abuse a law in a name of religion.
JAWI's ask was done opposite a following factual backdrop:
The Syariah Court Judge upon Jun 18, 2012 upon a ask of Nik Raina's counsel, gave September 19, 2012 as a next Mention so that a parties could have sufficient time to draw up of a Judicial Review record brought by Berjaya Books opposite JAWI in a High Court first; and
The High Court Judge Rohana Yusof upon September 19, 2012 pronouncing that Berjaya Book's duplicate for Judicial Review opposite a actions of JAWI had merit as well as granting leave to Berjaya Books to ensue with a duplicate for Judicial Review opposite a actions of JAWI upon September 19, 2012.
It looks like JAWI is right away perplexing to by-pass a Judicial Review record as well as create a conflict situation between a Syariah as well as Civil courts! How can Nik as well as her Lawyer be during dual places during a same time. To me, this ridiculous pierce is a pointer that JAWI has no legal leg to mount on. It must right away perform a playground act for a media as well as a bloggers.
There is no legal basement for prosecution, since a book was not criminialized during a time when JAWI paid a "friendly visit" to Borders as well as decided to charge Nik Raina.
My recommendation to JAWI is that they should stop posterior this case. The open knows that JAWI had acted hastily. It should additionally realise that a sick deliberate pierce is an annoyance to a Prime Minister as well as a government.
Please wise up as well as drop a box that is right away reception a international attention. Stop a Media circus, if JAWI wants to keep a integrity as well as repute intact. you say it again as well as JAWI knows it too. Nik Raina is trusting as well as Borders as a reputable book store as well as a responsible corporate citizen has not damaged a Law.
