Section 114a according to Fatimah Zuhri

While a little folks were gone upon a self-imposed internet trance to criticism Section 114a of a Evidence Act, blogger Fatimah Zuhri sheds light upon a blackness, as well as reassures us which there's positively zero to fright ... if we haven't done zero wrong ...

Amendment to a Evidence Act 1950
by Fatimah Zuhri
1. Are we ill as well as sleepy of a consistent fitnah/lies being thrown onward as well as back?
2. Are we ill of a shitty politickings which have engulfed a republic since 2008?
3. Are we repulsed by a consistent "baling batu sembunyi tangan" type of people?
4. Well, demeanour no further folks; soon we will have an updated version of Evidence Act 1950.
5. Parliament is discussing to improve a old Evidence Act 1950 by introducing a 3 things:
  • To refurbish a name of a act to Evidence Act 2012
  • New clarification of computer
  • Presumption of guilt
  • 6. Amendment No.1 is not controversial - it is just becoming opposite a name.
    7. Amendment No.2 is needed since a clarification of mechanism in 1950 or even 1998 is really opposite compared to today. Today a line in between what can be deliberate as a mechanism is almost self-existent - even a mobile phone can be deliberate computer!
    Currently, a clarification in a old Act about mechanism is:
    computer equates to any device for recording, storing, processing, retrieving or producing any report or alternative matter, or for behaving any a singular or some-more of those functions, by whatever name or description such device is called; as well as where dual or some-more computers carry out any a si! ngular o r some-more of those functions in multiple or in succession or differently howsoever conjointly, they shall be treated as a singular computer;
    Parliament would similar to to refurbish it to:
    computer equates to an electronic, magnetic, optical, electrochemical, or alternative interpretation estimate device, or a organisation of such interconnected or compared devices, behaving logical, arithmetic, storage as well as arrangement functions, as well as includes any interpretation storage trickery or communications trickery without delay compared to or handling in as well as with such device or organisation of such interconnected or compared devices, though does not include an automated typewriter or typesetter, or a unstable hand held calculator or alternative similar device which is on-programmable or which does not contain any interpretation storage facility;.
    8. We have been a building republic in a complicated world. Do we wish to have a 50s Act for 2012? So no complaint right for No.2? Good!
    9. Now, we come to a controversial partial of a legislative addition - No.3.Parliment would similar to to add 3 additional information. If we do not understand, review my outline inbold.
    *** Publication here refers to photos/article/tweet/posting/chat/etc.

Abg ni suka gigit...gigit telinga...sabotage ni tak main".
    Every computer/phone/laptop/Xbox/etc has a MAC address. When we connect to a Internet your ISP can see this.

    Books by Michael J. Casey and Daniel Gross

    Each of these books illuminates the single sold mercantile story really well, though fails to see the larger as well as some-more complex picture.

    For Michael J. Casey, the columnist during The Wall Street Journal, the mercantile problems branch from rapid monetary globalization, floods of destabilizing liquidity, the climb of China, extreme risk-taking in financial as well as the unholy alliance in between bankers as well as supervision in the United States. The core account of "The Unfair Trade" describes how Middle East produced more, saved some-more as well as then recycled those savings to pump up tellurian credit. America responded by borrowing some-more income to compensate for the consumption binge rsther than than buckling down as well as investing for larger productivity. Our debt proved unsustainable as well as the monetary predicament was the comeuppance for favoring present something good to eat over formulation for the future.

    But does China merit so most attention (5 chapters out of the book's 10)? Casey writes which China "provided the poor goods needed to sustain the American approach of life, as well as the financial to compensate for it." Yet the numbers tell the reduction dramatic story. Currently, imports from China are totalled during about 2.7 percent of consumer spending in America. Furthermore, for each dollar of imports from China, the lot of which income was spent in the United States scheming the import; imagine an iPad designed as well as marketed from Cupertino, Calif., though counted as an import from China. That leaves Chinese imports, totalled in terms of true net impact, during about 1.2 percent of American consumer spending.

    In any case, China's role as the source of potential tellurian imbalances is diminishing. For 2011, China had the traffic over-abundance of about $ 155 billion, somewhat some-more than half of what it was in 2008. At times this year China has been using traffic deficits. For perspective, the traffic ! surpluse s of Japan, Taiwan, as well as South Korea taken together are $ 141 billion, usually somewhat not as big than China's. (I'm using 2010 total for Japan to adjust for the negative stroke of the 2011 earthquake.) China as the major player in the grim mercantile story creates for the utilitarian target, though "The Unfair Trade" overplays the palm upon this point.

    Instead of condemning Chinese traffic surpluses, you should be looking during the world's poorest regions, which do not export most during all. Concentrating upon sub-Saharan Africa as well as most of South Middle East would lead to the some-more walking tale, though arguably the some-more relevant one. What the tellurian economy really needs is to build some-more markets, urge internal institutions for illness as well as education, as well as await some-more infallible governments. Even the mercantile climb of China, you should remember, is not the sure thing: the nation faces problems from real estate bubbles, provincial debts, widespread corruption, urban-rural disparities as well as the deficiency of the transparent trail to democracy.

    The domestic aspect of Casey's story is some-more convincing, though also some-more familiar. American financial is broken, the regulations do not seem to be operative as well as the mercantile incentives as well often are "heads we win, tails multitude loses." One can determine with Casey's call for larger transparency, not as big banks, floating sell rates, reforming the International Monetary Fund as well as limiting the oligarchic energy of bankers without expecting really most to change. Our pre-2008 institutions were, arguably, the outcome of an try to build the monetary universe upon exactly those principles, which have commanded various forms of lip use for decades. The some-more pressing question is whether the economy is strong enough to endure the slack in borrowing from both consumers as well as the sovereign government. Many observers fear not, as well as in any box American politici! ans, eve r unwavering of their own re-election prospects, do not seem willing to run the experiment.

    Daniel Gross, an editor as well as columnist during The Daily Ticker during Yahoo! Finance, offers the most some-more confident perspective of the future, during slightest for the United States. In "Better, Stronger, Faster," America is entering the new age of commercial operation success, driven by the innovativeness, dynamism as well as skill during commerce. As in "The Unfair Trade," the account is corroborated by excellent reporting, as when Gross explores the resurgent hoary fuel zone upon the trip to North Dakota.

    In the Shadow of the Banyan, by Vaddey Ratner

    When a 7-year-old Cambodian girl named Raami initial sets eyes upon a member of a Khmer Rouge, clad in black pajamas as well as sandals done from rubber tires, she pretends he is a tevoda, an angel. "You contingency be Dark One!" she greets him, as well as pouts when he won't stick upon her game. She is shocked to learn which this unfair apparition is a revolutionary soldier, come to order a immediate depletion of her family to a countryside, along with all a other residents of Phnom Penh. "This is a Khmer Rouge?" she thinks. "Where was a many-named larger-than-life deity I'd expected?"

    IN THE SHADOW OF THE BANYAN

    By Vaddey Ratner

    322 pp. Simon & Schuster. $ 25.

    "In a Shadow of a Banyan," Vaddey Ratner's initial novel, tells a story of Raami's onslaught to tarry underneath a Khmer Rouge. During a energy of apprehension from 1975 to 1979, a Communist system of administration emptied cities, shuttered schools as well as hospitals, as well as forced families in to work camps in an attempt to turn Cambodia in to an agrarian utopia. Misguided agricultural reforms led to drawn out famine. People deemed intellectual which competence meant simply which they wore glasses were tortured or murdered outright. It is estimated which 1.7 million Cambodians, 25 percent of a population, died.

    The book hews closely to a author's own life. Like Ratner, who was 5 years old when a Khmer Rouge came to power, Raami is a princess, her father a successor of a early-20th-century King Sisowath. Educated abroad, he has become disillusioned with a corrupt Cambodian supervision as well as is primarily sympathetic to what he believes are a ideals of a Khmer Roug! e. His b rother is more prescient: "You see which they are children, don't you? . . . Children who've been since guns." Shortly after a family is forced to flee Phnom Penh, Raami's father reveals his royal heritage to a soldiers, meaningful they will execute him, though he identifies a others as commoners, anticipating to save them.

    It is a duration reprieve. After losing her father, Raami as well as her mother as well as sister are distant from a rest of their family as well as regularly replaced opposite an increasingly impoverished countryside. When their privileged background is exposed, they are marked "undesirable" as well as shunted off to a work camp, where they tarry upon murky leaves as well as bugs resembling cockroaches. Finally, Raami stops speaking.

    How is it which so most of this dour novel is full of beauty, even joy? Deposited in a strange hamlet, Raami observes "flame trees in full bloom" as well as rice paddies with "knee-high stalks as movable as baby's hair." A sunrise registers as a sky's "pinkish veil, borrowing a paint of a lotuses maturation below." Later, in a truck bound for an different destination, she notes with gratitude a kid who offers her water from a coconut bombard as well as a awkward kindness of a infantryman who amenities her during a thunderstorm.

    Throughout, Ratner stays loyal to a perspective of a child. (To be sure, a kid with a poetic bent.) She imagines "little tevoda immature kids floating in a bulges of clouds on top of us, contrast a clouds for ripeness with a tips of their gold javelins." The ransacking of a residence she attributes to a thrashing of a dragon's tail. She prays to a system of administration as if it were a god.

    In interviews, Ratner has explained which she chose to write a novel rather than a memoir partly since she was too immature at a time "to stop a expect details." As a work of fiction, "In a Shadow of a Banyan" is reduction a testament to atrocity than a settlement with a past. At one point, Raami's nan! ny tells her which stories "are like footpaths of a gods. They lead us back as well as onward opposite time as well as space as well as bond us to a entire universe." What is remarkable, as well as honorable, here is a absence of anger, as well as a capacity clearly gigantic for empathy.

    Amendment 114A: Why it MUST be repealed

    And by now, you should know because this beginning has been carried out by a Center for Independent Journalism (better known as CIJ).

    But only in case you still aren't sure because a fuss, kindly take a few mins to perspective this PSA.

    It's an guileful piece of legislation that should be repealed with evident effect. Among alternative things, it violates a most simple tenet of law: that one is innocent UNTIL proven guilty.

    And that, as The Titanic found out, is only a tip of a iceberg...

    CIJ has put together a total bunch of resources for you to find out some-more about a amendment to a Evidence Act 1950, but here are a pass points (taken from a CIJ FAQ upon Amendment 114A):

    1. What is 114A?
    Secti! upon 114a is a brand new amendment to a Evidence Act 1950 that was upheld in council without debate in April 2012. The section is called "Presumption of fact in publication". It states that any owner, admin, host, editor, subscriber of a network! or webs ite, or owners of computer or mobile device is presumed to have published or re-published a contents.

    2. Why is it a problem?
    It has wide-ranging strech as good as extends not only to practically everybody who uses any internet platform from e-mail as good as social media to blogs as good as online media but additionally those who don't.

    It is a complaint because:

    • It presumes guilt rather than innocence.
    • It creates individuals as good as organisations who administer, work or provide spaces for online village forums, blogging as good as hosting services, probable for content that is published by a services.
    • It allows hackers as good as cyber criminals to go giveaway by creation a person whose account/computer is hacked probable for any content/data that might have changed.

    • It threatens leisure of countenance online.

    In alternative words, it is opposite a core beliefs of justice, democracy as good as elemental tellurian rights.

    3. How will this start you?
    If 114a is not stopped, you will be held responsible for a difference of others. It can additionally outcome in a dismissal of comment functions, curtailing your space for posting bona fide comments as good as opinions. This impacts your democratic right to experience freely and! openly i! n public debate as good as discussions. Indirectly, it will encourage a meridian of self-censorship, as good as will have a huge stroke upon a interactive inlet of online media.

    4. Why do you want to stop 114a?
    Our opinions as netizens a! s good a s as citizens matter. If a brand new Evidence Act were gazetted, 114a would seriously hinder a democratic right to leisure of countenance upon a Net.

    Let's keep online spaces giveaway as good as open to vicious comments as good as debates.

    The Soul of the Olympic Games

    August 13, 2012

    The Soul of a Olympic Games

    by Frank Bruni

    IT'S easy to be cynical about a Olympics: about a exile commercialism; about a jingoism which so many countries move to a games; about NBC.

    Definitely about NBC. Its breathless degree of feign suspense during prime-time broadcasts has been a silly hoax of a wired ways, as well as as well many on-the-spot interviews with athletes redefined dippy. How do you feel? Jubilant if you've medalled, crushed if you haven't as well as really, unequivocally tired. Fill in a blanks.

    But you know what? It's only as easy to be sappy about a Olympics. In fact, it's a whole lot easier. Because for all their flaws as well as frustrations, they've been a unusual spectacle. More than that, they've been a unusual inspiration, in precisely a ways which they were ostensible to be, during a deteriorate when you indispensable a uplift.

    Amid bullets in Colorado as well as Wisconsin, vitriol upon a campaign trail, ominously boiling heat as well as serious questions about whether you can as well as will rise to a challenges prior to us, a Olympics have affirmed which human potential is only about infinite as well as which a human soul is good. They've presented dual solid weeks of parables, many of which underscored a good rewards probable when good risk is taken as well as a awaiting of excellence upon a distant side of sacrifice.

    Gabby Douglas (left) gave us a doctrine in all of that. you can't utterly let go of her grin or her story. Four years ago, during a age of 12, sh! e unsucc essfully begged her mother, Natalie Hawkins, to concede her to leave their home in Virginia as well as train in Iowa, which seemed so distant as well as outlandish which Hawkins once joked: "Are there people in Iowa? There's only corn." Corn, which is, as well as a world-renowned manager who knows a thing or dual about harvesting Olympic gold.

    Douglas joined forces with him when she was 14, as well as her mom eventually consented to her wishes, fixation her in a care of an Iowa family whom Douglas didn't nonetheless know, in a town where a black lady was bound to stand out. Many nights, Douglas has said, she cried herself to sleep. But she had this dream. And a only path to it, she felt certain, was by those cornfields.

    The Olympics have reminded us which any grand achievement begins with a leap of conviction as well as draws expensively from a wellspring of pristine confidence. And which what has been achieved to date has no bearing upon what can be achieved in time.

    Dutch gymnast Epke Zonderland took to a air to prove as much, soaring above as well as swooping below a high club during his gold-medal show-stopper, while Michael Phelps (right) took to a water. Before Phelps, no male had won a same Olympic swimming eventuality 3 times in a row. In London, he did that.

    Before Phelps, no male or lady had ever collected some-more than eighteen Olympic medals. In London, he did that, too. Then he collected a 20th, a 21st, a 22nd. All yet four are gold. By multiple measures as well as by far, he is a many flashy Olympian ever.

    Mosts. Firsts. London brimmed with them, as well as they transcended small trivia. They charted a march of social progress, marked a toppling of boundaries. For a initial time, a American Olympic g! roup had some-more women than men. For a initial time, every national group included during least a single woman, as well as which was since 3 Muslim countries which had never prior to sent a womanlike contestant to a Olympics eventually did so.

    One of those countries was Saudi Arabia, as well as a single of its dual womanlike competitors was Sarah Attar (left), who ran a 800m with her legs covered, her arms covered, her hair covered.

    At a start, she beamed during a crowd, her grin an admission of history in a making. And yet she lagged distant during a behind of everybody else in her heat, a throng roared louder as well as louder as she approached a finish line, then gave her a standing ovation. It was as if she had set a world record. Then again, she had.

    There was identical acclaim for Oscar Pistorius (below left), a South African male who additionally challenged fashion as well as additionally defied limits, using a 400m upon dual prosthetic legs. He done it as distant as a semifinals, after which Grenadian curtain Kirani James, who would go upon to win a gold, substituted nametags with him. It was a gesticulate of a utmost apply oneself as well as a poignant illustration of a kind of brotherhood which athletic foe during its very best can foster.

    From a Olympics, you got validation which sports aren't only an engine of fame as well as a equates to to riches yet a training belligerent for a rest of life, as well as which they can make champions proud without making them vain.

    Another grin you can't let go of is Missy Franklin's, toothy a! s well a s triumphant, since you got a sense which a happiness in it came not so much from besting her rivals in a pool yet from meeting a grandest expectations which others had for her as well as which she had for herself.

    As she won a initial of four golds, in a 100m backstroke, NBC showed her high school classmates behind in Colorado huddled in front of an enormous TV screen.

    They went bonkers when she touched a wall forward of everybody else. That reaction helped to explain a huge preference which she's made. Rather than cash in upon endorsement deals which could be value hundreds of thousands, she'll safety her amateur status so which she can swim for a group during yes or no college she attends.

    There will presumably be opportunities for income down a road. There won't be a same chance to move excitement to her campus as well as play a special partial upon it. Those experiences can't be measured in dollars. And by choosing to bite them, she has something to learn us all.

    Merdeka theme must reflect our multicultural country


    Written by Lena HendryCPIAsia
    Press Statements
    press-st2Pusat Komas is totally shocked as well as appalled by a recent comments as well as statements made by a former Prime Minister Tun Mahathir Mohamad as well as present PM Najib Razak saying which a Merdeka thesis was chosen formed upon Islamic demands.
    This trend of thinking is in actuality a single of a clever factors which has been reinforcing a division as well as separation of competition as well as sacrament in Malaysia. Ethnic formed governing body has been a order of a day given a country's Independence as well as this has definitely not benefited a multiracial as well as cultural communities.
    After a prior 12th ubiquitous choosing of March 8, 2008, Malaysian have shown a supervision of a day as well as a politicians which you will not stand for race-based governing body as well as this was reflected in a votes for shift then. The people had sent a clever message to politicians upon both sides of a domestic divide which personification a racial card for domestic ambitions will not be tolerated by a voters as well as Malaysians in general.
    Independence day should be distinguished with honour as well as honour not to be sinister with unwashed governing body as well as using sacrament as a apparatus for self interests. Using competition as well as sacrament as promotion element to elevate oneself tentative a next 13th ubiquitous choosing is totally shameful as well as justifies a branding of it being labeled as "gutter politics".
    The Malaysian constitution describes a republic as a physical state as well as Islam is a official religion. Both former Prime Ministers of Malaysia, Tunku Abdul Rahman as well as Tun Hussein Onn were both lawyers as well as had concurred Malaysia as a physical! state f ormed upon a constitution.
    The thesis of Independence Day should reflect a interests as well as aspirations of all Malaysians as well as not of just a single village or ethnic group. PM Najib of all people should know this as well as not be part of a immoderate fervour of propagating a single organisation over another.
    It is right away 55 years after independence as well as a republic is owing to clearly pierce away from extremist governing body as well as domestic bulletin towards a joined nation. It is high time a Malaysian supervision show a world which it is serious in a endeavour to lead a republic towards progress, stability as well as prosperity for all as well as not usually for selected groups of people.
    Malaysia has to rught away demonstrate a membership in a progressive general village by ratifying a International Convention upon a Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD). This is an general tellurian rights instrument which provides a check as well as balance mechanism for governments to comment for their policies as well as actions upon any issues relating to injustice in Malaysia.
    Pusat Komas is currently spear-heading a 'Ratify ICERD Now, Stop Racism' debate together with 7 other polite societies to advocate for a Malaysian supervision to ratify a convention.
    In a entrance elections, all possibilities must pledge to a people which they will uphold a non-discrimination in front of regardless of race, religion. Most importantly, politicians as well as governments must walk a talk. Enough talk, sufficient propaganda, as well as sufficient racial governing body in a country!

    Surendran: In a domestic arena, do you determine which Utusan does not give a offset domestic coverage?

    Earlier, Abdul Aziz certified which Utusan is especially owned by UMNO though claimed a celebration does not interfere with a paper process.

    Surendran: There is an UMNO deputy upon a house as well as one who is a deputy of a Prime Minister?

    It is Time to Hold Our Sports Officials to Account

    It is Time to Hold Our Sports Officials to Account

    by Tan Siok Choo@www.thesundaily.com

    IF officials concerned in Malaysian sports were bonds, distant too many have been expected to be classified as junk. Only a handful could conceivably qualify for a tip nick rating of AAA.

    In new months, some important decisions were irrational, if not ludicrous. One e.g. was allowing our strongest Olympic bullion award contender, Datuk Lee Chong Wei, to take partial in a Thomas Cup.

    Given which a Thomas Cup is a team eventuality as well as Malaysia's chances of winning this year were poor, was it value jeopardising Chong Wei's bid to win a country's initial bullion award in a Olympics for a non-achievable victory?

    He severely harmed his ankle during a eventuality hold in late May. Despite a condensed precision period, Chong Wei won a initial diversion opposite bullion medallist Lin Dan as well as lost by usually two points in a third deciding diversion in a finals.

    This raises a single touching question: could Chong Wei have won a bullion award if he hadn't been injured?That 29-year-old Chong Wei is now being asked to cruise competing during a next Olympics in 2016 additionally highlights another issue a near-total miss of period planning in sports.

    In contrast, China's Chen Long who won a bronze award as well as has mostly been touted as Lin Dan's inheritor is usually twenty years old.

    Malaysia's miss of a tube of world-class sports people is due to officials' over-emphasis on short-term gains during a expense of long-term growth.

    For example, instead of awarding furious cards to promising people for a London Olympics, reduction convincing criteria appear to have been used. As Head of Mission Tun Ahmad Sarji pronounced "there is no indicate promulgation an athlete who is roughly during a end of his or her career."

    Another e.g. of unnoticed priorities was a warding off by state officials from Kedah, Negri Sembilan, Penang, Selangor as well as Terengganu to allow their athletes to take partial during a World Junior championships in Barcelona.

    Their warding off stemmed from a actuality a date of a tellurian under-19 meet clashed with which of Sukan Malaysia (Sukma) hold in Kuantan last month.

    What is a motive for giving priority to a inhabitant eventuality hold each year over a tellurian eventuality which would have supposing glorious bearing for young athletes?

    That America's 17-year-old Missy Franklin as well as China's 16-year-old Ye Shiwen won bullion medals in swimming in a Olympics emphasises a actuality which youth is increasingly an item in tellurian sporting achievement.

    Admittedly, not all officials deserve to be rated next investment grade. In London, Pandelela Rinong won a bronze in diving a initial Olympic award for a sport as well as a initial won by a Malaysian woman. That she is usually nineteen years aged equates to she can be a contender for a 2016 Olympics.

    Like Chong Wei, Pandelela exhibited steely integrity to fight as well as win a bronze award after her initial dive relegated her to 10th in front of among twelve contenders.

    Pandelela's success additionally suggests a official bent to mostly short-change women in conditions of funding, unfamiliar coaching as well as appearance in abroad meets is both astigmatic as well as self-defeating.

    That Malaysia's scuba divers additionally won medals during a Commonwealth Games, Asian Games as wel! l as uni verse championships is due to a decision by a Amateur Swimming Union of Malaysia as well as a National Sports Council to sinecure a foreigner as manager Yang Zhuliang from China.

    Yang's success in diving's prompts a subject either badminton where coaches similar to Morten Frost Hansen (left), Fang Kaixiang as well as Rexy Mainaky left in unhappy circumstances would have finished significantly improved if unfamiliar coaches had been since a same poke over players as Manchester United's manager, Sir Alex Ferguson rsther than than treated with colour similar to disposable cutlery.

    Although squash isn't an Olympic event, Dato' Nicol David has dominated a sports. Her longevity as a universe series a single is a reverence to her undeniable bent as well as single-mindedness in achieving tellurian success.

    However, even means people need great coaching as well as early bearing in a general arena. Nicol was a double universe junior champion. At 23, she became a youngest universe series a single in Jan 2006.

    Going forward, tip sports officials should commence a cost-benefit research of their monetary support for sports associations. Future allocations should be based on results completed per capita.

    If 10 divers, trained by a single unfamiliar coach, won a single bronze in a Olympics, then diving deserves a bigger allocation than alternative sports.

    After a badminton last in London, Chong Wei apologised for his failure to win a bullion medal. Chong Wei's reparation wasn't necessary. It is Malaysia which owes Chong Wei as well as alternative sports personalities an reparation for allowing officials unobstructed discretion to bungle their charges as well as their sports.

    Opinions expressed in this article have been a personal views of a writer as well as should not be attributed to any alternative organisation she is connected with. She can be contacted during siokchoo@thesundaily.com

    Ladang Bukit Jalil workers waiting for the final score



    It is usually a single month since a Ladang Bukit Jalil cabinet met a budding minister. Many people who saw a news of a cabinet eventually having a date with a PM would have concluded that a emanate of Ladang Bukit Jalil estate workers is over as good as done with. There was also a feeling that if a PM met them, definitely it would not be to defect them.

    Now usually a single month later, a emanate of Ladang Bukit Jalil is still not resolved. The PM asked for a little time to investigate a issue. When a bureau of a absolute PM himself asks for some-more time to investigate a issue, it seems a complaint in hand is a complex one.

    NONEThe assembly with a PM did not usually come so easily. The Bukit Jalil workers camped outward a PM's bureau until they got an appointment. After spending thirty hours, they eventually got news that a PM will give an appointment to encounter them. It was a climax of their long struggle.

    Not receiving divided credit from Najib, a PM did actually encounter them (janji ditepati) yet there was initially a speculation that he will usually promise though not encounter them. A assembly was hold during a estate upon a night prior to of a PM's meeting. The feedback from a people during a assembly was that they were all really carefree that a emanate will be eventually resolved.

    Politically, a Bukit Jalil emanate is ripped in a flesh emanate for a MIC as good as it is a single of a vital inhabitant emanate opposed them as a plight of a Bukit Jalil ex-plantation workers is a inhabitant concern. The emanate perceived lots of coverage in a Ta! mil dailies as good as sympath! y from m any Malaysian Indians. For a PM, it is critical for him to execute that he is permitted as good as is listening to a voices of a people.

    Now a single month after a PM's meeting, a little fear has crept in. There is now a feeling that a PM's assembly was usually a play as good as once a election is over as good as if a BN come to power, afterwards they will have use of all their competence to explode a houses. There is many instances in story when civic bad houses being demolished usually after elections. Therefore any resolution to a Bukit Jalil estate workers has to be done now.

    Legally Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has won a case. Only political vigour seems to have stop them from carrying out an eviction.

    But again DBKL got a eviction order by saying that a ex-plantation workers were usually squatters as good as they used a draconian Emergency clearance of squatter ordinance upon these workers. But today, this law has been carried after Najib voiced a lifting of a 4 emergencies. It would demeanour really bad for DBKL to explode a homes regulating a Emergency statute today.

    Stumbling block

    Having said that, what is afterwards keeping a budding apportion for giving a former workers 4 acres of land out of a twenty-six acres of land that is currently available. There seems to be several factors that seem to be a stumbling block.

    I lift 3 pertinent questions.

    1. Not wanting to set a precedent

    One of a main reasons since for not ancillary a Bukit! Jalil wo! rker's direct is that they do not wish to set a precedent. The DBKL as good as MIC think that it would be a bad precedent. DBKL has a story of not giving camp workers landed skill as good as they claim that many other kampong as good as a little estates will ask for landed skill if they were to give in.

    Here once again capitalist seductiveness becomes a deciding factor. Though when a Government acquired Ladang Bukit Jalil (LBJ) in 1980, there were 1,800 acre! s. The s upervision upon acquiring a land, sold a land piece by piece to in isolation developers such as Berjaya group, Talam as good as Ho Hup.

    The LBJ land was used to rise luxury houses, tolled highways as good as golf courses between others. Never did it cranky their thoughts that they contingency resolve first a housing needs of a community where they have been building a land.

    Now after all a budding land being sold for profits, there sojourn currently twenty-six acres of land that they plan to have it in to a burial ground. What about those living?

    NONEWhat a Ladang Bukit Jalil ex workers have been asking is usually 4 acres of a final superfluous twenty-six acres. Why is there a complaint in giving in to these people? Why cannot a people who have been a longest upon a land be allocated land in a same place?

    As you have been good aware, this nation was built upon a toil as good as scapegoat of, amongst others, hundreds of thousands of estate workers. Up to 1980s, a income from rubber as good as oil palm played a vital role in financing a dev! elopment ! of a country.

    Our nation prospered, as good as camp companies reaped fanciful profits, though camp workers lived in contemptible misery as good as deprivation generated by below misery line wages as good as a many backward of wage structures. Four acres of land as a amicable wage to compensate for their contribution towards a nation is surely not as well many to ask for.

    Why is afterwards that such a satisfactory as good as eminent thought of giving land to a bad as good as a many deserving being seen as bad precedent? Bad fashion in whose eyes? It seems that for a chosen classes, these have been bad precedents when budding land is since to bad people. And sadly BN as good as MIC share this vision.

    It! is time to set good precedent. Will a statute celebration have a political will to do it?

    2. The inner MIC energy play

    It is no tip that MIC's Deputy FT Minister M Saravanan is strongly against a ex-workers removing a land. Saravanan was instrumental in removing a outrageous organisation of people to accept a relocation to a flats. Here once again, politicians inner seductiveness in assisting supporters as good as building bases override a subject of justice.

    The Minister, Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin, himself acknowledged in an central matter that of a 71 who have moved to a flats, usually 10 have been former camp workers whilst a others have been 'squatters'. Whereas he settled that a superfluous 39 who have been still vital upon a estate have been all former camp workers.

    These problems have been not new. In many cases, politician meddle in assisting their chosen people to get benefits, manoeuvre central census, help cronies etc! . In this! case, Saravanan's await base is in those who have moved to a flats. On a other hand, MIC Youth personality T Mohan has supported a 4 acres of land asked by a Bukit Jalil workers.

    NONENow a subject being asked for those opposing a 4acres direct is - if you give land to a 41 families, what about those who have already left to a flats? This emanate is used to divide as good as order a people. Even now, those who have left a estates have been promised another bulk of compensation though with condition that usually if a superfluous 41 also supposed a flats offer.

    It is time MIC come out in a open as good as state if they await Bukit Jalil workers removing 4 acres of land or not? In a Buah Pala incident, MIC fought so hard that a people there should be since a landed skill in a in isolation land. Here yo! u have b een articulate about supervision land. Why can't MIC put brazen a same argument here?

    MIC boss G Palanivel also had referred to that civic hard times is worse than camp hard times as good as referred to those facing these problems go behind to a estates. Therefore it would usually have sense that they go behind to a piece of land or home that belongs to them in a community system. Giving Bukit Jalil camp workers that 4 acres will safety their community life.

    Now a time is right for MIC to put a jot down straight. But it seems between Saravanan, Mohan as good as Subramaniam, they seems to have incompatible views as good as incompatible interest. It is time a MIC state their in front of clearly.

    3. Najib a neo-liberal distinct his dad who was a amicable democrat?

    During a assembly with a PM, Najib smiled when he was reminded about a Abdul Razak Hussein camp workers residence ownership scheme.

    Razak afterwards introduced a single of a many remarkable solutions for camp misery - a estate workers residence ownership scheme. If this had been implemented in 1973, currently many camp workers will be staying in a landed skill like a Malay normal villagers, Felda intrigue participants as good as Chinese new villages.

    But sadly 90 percent of all plantations as good as all a vital camp companies in that a Government had vital shares did not wish to exercise this scheme.

    Razak lived in a cold fight epoch when he had to give in to many people orientated final like land reforms, felda scheme, introduce Socso, etc. The political left was many stronger then. Today Najib lives in a world who believes in TINA there is no alternatives. Najib is a absolute believer of new liberal capitalism. He promotes privatisation, cuts down subsidies as good as supports FTAs.

    Piss off, Tanda Putera filmmakers! P. Ramakrishnan



    It is a wonder how a makers of a film "Tanda Putera" raked up an situation in a story which had never been documented or talked about. In fact, such an situation never even took place!
    Yet, a producer-director, Shuhaimi Baba, claims which a events decorated in a movie have been based upon established truth. "My team as well as you did a lot of research, such as study documented materials as well as photographs, to make sure a scenes were backed by historical facts," she asserted upon August 4.
    But where was it documented as well as by whom which Lim Kit Siang had urinated upon a flagpole (in a devalue of) a Selangor mentri besar's chateau whilst during a same time cheering a secular slur? Which photographer prisoner this purported inhuman act being committed?
    We need to ask a little simple questions:
    Can any one just ramble into a mentri besar's residence, pee upon a flagpole as well as sensitively walk away?
    Isn't a mentri besar's chateau gated as well as guarded?
    If this situation had actually taken place, since hadn't any one referred to it over a last 43 years? Was it classified under a OSA?
    If Kit Siang had committed this disreputable act, wouldn't they have accomplished him off politically long ago? He wouldn't have survived this purported contemptible episode! No sane person would have supported him!
    How could this situation have taken place when Kit Siang had irrevocably established a actuality which he was not in Kuala Lumpur upon May 11-13, 1969?
    Was Kit Siang a delinquent or educationally sub-normal to have committed this shameful act?
    Knowing Kit Siang, would any one believe which he would be which foolhardy to commit this violent act?
    The answers to these questions have been simple as well as straightforward. This situation could not have taken place during all! Shuhaimi Baba shou! ld not t ry to apply artistic licence to an episode which is as serious as well as dangerous as a nation's full of blood May 13, 1969 riots!
    Kit Siang is known to have walked a true trail of goodness by watching a norms of good conduct. Without such an ideal jot down it would not have been probable for him to have remained as a longest-serving antithesis personality in a parliamentary democracy.
    But since is this situation without doubt a figment of a aptitude projected as something which has taken place to darken as well as degrade him?
    Is it since as most tend to think a DAP has developed into a formidable force, posing a fiercest plea to a BN by threatening to wipe out a MCA? Is it since of this fright which a makers of this film have chosen to be part of this political ploy to save Umno?
    It is inhuman which lies have been being invented as well as story is being twisted to offer selfish interests to safety energy as well as position.
    This disgraceful control additionally poses a plea to a electorate: Are you going to condone lies as well as deceit or will you have a moral bravery to retaliate BN or more specifically Umno for this unforgivable lie as well as rotten control during a 13th ubiquitous election? aliran.com
