Malaysian Justice calls on Home Minister to Charge Sinar Harian under the PPP Act!

This is outrageous!! If any newspaper were talking about Islam like this newspaper is talking about Christianity, the newspaper company would have been burned to the ground by now and the editor and his entire team be lock behind ISA!

So is the Home Minister going to do anything about it?!?

After all they hauled up the Star editor over something small for running buka puasa articles together with stories on non-halal restaurants. STAR had to make a public apology and PERKASA were yelling for their heads!!!

What will the Christian do?!?

More Importantly! What will Hishammudin as the Home Minister do?!?!

Will Malaysia see justice over this?!?!

Harping on the controversial issue of an "apostasy movement" by Christian groups, Malay language daily Sinar Harian today stepped up its criticisms and accused the movement of encouraging free mingling between the sexes and permitting prostitution.

Yesterday, the daily gave extensive coverage to a so-called "apostasy movement" in its regular Monday column, Bicara Isnin.

In the second part of the column published today, scathing allegations were levelled against the 'Christian movement' and were listed in an information text box titled Matlamat gerakan Kristian (Objectives of the Christian movement).

Sinar Harian listed four items that it said are among other programmes afoot "to destroy Muslims":

1. Social movement: encouraging free mingling between the sexes;

2. Moral degradation: damaging moral values with wild activities;

3. Permitting prostitution as a service occupation; and

4. Films and music: inserting negative or extreme elements and excessive music that leads to heedlessness and negligence.

The daily did not elaborate on these allegations.

On the same page, Sinar Harianpublished two reports quoting Islamic NGO Jamaah Islah Malaysia (JIM) president Zaid Kamaruddin and Malaysia Syariah Lawyers Council president Isa Ralik respectively.

Zaid (left) called on the authorities to establish a research centre to detect apostasy at early stage, before it got worse, while Isa said preaching non-Islamic religions to Muslims was a violation of the federation constitution.

Yesterday the daily reported on its front page that the "apostasy movement" was getting bolder and was being done openly.

In a related development, former information minister Zainuddin Maidin, in an article published in Utusan Malaysia today, urged the Malay rulers' council to focus on the rise of proselytising by Christian groups.

Zainuddin (right) said the proselytising activities exposed recently had been done in a "subtle, intelligent, bold, aggressive and provocative" manner with the purpose of turning Malaysia into another Indonesia.

"Their objective is to erase the image of 'Malaysian Malays - One Religion' and they want Malaysia to become Indonesia, where 'one race is not one religion'."

Comparing the preaching approach of Christian and Islamic groups in the country, the karyawan tamu(visiting fellow) of Universiti Utara Malaysia said Christians were more dynamic and progressive while the Islamic groups were old-fashioned, not creative and not responsive to the current demands.

Therefore, Zainuddin added, the Malay rulers' council, which oversees the nation's religious agencies, should address the issue immediately.

UPDATE: Sinar Harian has apologies for this article but they called

what they did as "information given was inaccurate". I hardly call that a sincere apology!

Still we are waiting for the Home Minister to act!!

Will Exam's criminal act go unpunished?!?

Umno Senator Mohd Ezam Mohd Noor said today he will wage war in defence of Islam, including burning two online news portals, which he claimed to be agents against Islam.

"We are saying here that we will launch an all-out war to defend our faith if they (anti-Islam elements) do not stop (and) use their agents -Malaysiakini and Malaysian Insider - which were biadap(rude) towards the Selangor Islamic Affairs Department (Jais).

"Malaysiakini, Malaysian Insider, we are giving you a very last warning. Our warning is a serious one. If you do not stop this rubbish, we are going to burn you down!" Ezam declared.

The former ally of PKR supremo Anwar Ibrahim and now the opposition leader's bitter foe is blaming the news portals for "Jais' woes" by reporting on the Selangor religious enforcement body's raid at the Damansara Utama Methodist Church (DUMC) compound last week.

Ezam said this at a highly-charged rally of some 200 people inside the compound of the Selangor state mosque in Shah Alam.

Also present were Kulim Bandar Baru MP Zulkifli Nordin and Umno Youth exco member Lokman Noor Adam, who was clad in a red Patriot T-shirt.

This is such a clear threat of violence! Why no action?!?

Is Tan Sri Tajudding Ramli protected by the BN Govt?!?

When Tajudin Ramli took over MAS, the national airline company had RM600 million in cash reserves. When he left MAS seven years later, the national airline company had a hole of RM8 billion, a gap of about RM9 billion!!!!

Why would the government want to drop its case against him?

Find out here!

Worst still was that Ramli Yusuff, the Director of the Commercial Crimes Investigations Department (CCID) of the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM), and lawyer Rosli Dahlan, paid a heavy price for pursuing Tajudin Ramli.

Both ended up being hauled into court against trumped-up charges. While Tajudin remained free and still extremely wealthy, Ramli lost his job and his shot at being the next IGP while Rosli lost his clients.

TODAY....

KUALA LUMPUR Aug 11 — Transparency-International Malaysia TI-M president Datuk Paul Low questioned the Najib administration’s decision to settle all out-of-court suits between government-linked-companies GLCs and Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli saying today Putrajaya has a duty to protect the public’s interest.

He was responding to The Malaysian Insider’s report earlier today citing de facto law minister Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz’s directive to all GLCs including Danaharta and Malaysian Airlines MAS to drop all claims against Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s poster boy for Bumiputera entrepreneurs as the Ministry of Finance MOF has agreed to settle the payment

“When they say settle something exactly what does it mean Nobody knows how it’s to be settled or how much on what basis and justification Is the government paying on behalf of the GLCs

Is it a bailout Who are parties involved “Who instructed Nazri Was it the Finance Ministry the Cabinet or the prime minister We don’t know ” Low told The Malaysian Insider when contacted

He reminded the ruling Barisan Nasional BN federal government that it was accountable for spending taxpayers’ money He said the government could not simply step into a legal dispute that involved a public-listed company even if it had government ties and added the government must show how the country and the public benefitted from such a decision

“This arrangement does not reflect well on the government In good governance the buck stops at the CEO or the board of directors The government has to answer ” he added

The head of the local anti-graft watchdog urged Putrajaya to come clean on the decision noting that it was a “test of good governance” for the ruling political coalition Opposition lawmakers said the out-of-court settlement demonstrate yet another example of political patronage

Yet again, Tajuddin has been let off scot-free and the public, denied justice. Any court revelations now would not look good for Barisan Nasional, especially as the general election draws near.

With this latest defrauding of the public purse, how much of the taxpayers’ money has gone unaccounted for? This government is neither transparent nor accountable. It does not adhere to its own catch-phrase, “People First, Performance Now”. It doesn’t even match up to its own Key Performance Indicators.

The Najib administration’s move to settle all outstanding claims against Tajuddin appears to be an attempt to wipe the slate clean in a financial saga that goes back decades to the height of Dr Mahathir’s administration

Tajuddin was a high flyer in the 1990s along with individuals such as Tan Sri Halim Saad but the 1997 Asian financial crisis saw most of them crashing to the ground

Although Najib is expected to call a general election within the year it has been reported that BN is short of funds to fight polls nationally after committing its machinery to retain its two-thirds majority in the April 16 Sarawak state election

The ruling coalition was said to have spent over RM500 million in the closer-than-expected race after party intelligence said that victory was only assured in 25 of the 71 state seats.

Read here for a more comprehensive background to this case!

Read more here!

See here for prove that the BN Govt is lying through their teeth!!

What document could they possibly have been carrying?!?

Perhaps a manual on how to blow up a Mongolian lady!?

Or is it a U help me I help you book!?!

Or could it be a guide book on how to stay clean! (BERSIH!)

Goodness me I hope it is not just a book on Communism. Afterall doesn't the national library have books on Communism ideology? Will the police go and catch the librarian next?!?!

IDIOTS!!!

Taken from Malaysiakini!

The six PSM activists who were released last week from detention under the Emergency Ordinance have been charged for being in possession of subversive documents.

They claimed trial to the charge under Section 43 of the Societies Act and an alternative charge under Section 48(1) of the same law.

The activists - dubbed the 'PSM 6' - also face a charge under Section 29(1) of the Internal Security Act (ISA) for possession of allegedly subversive documents.

Butterworth Sessions Court judge Ikmal Hisham Mohd Tajuddin set bail at RM8,000 each, and fixed the hearing from Oct 10-14.

Despite the PSM defence lawyers' argument that bail should be lowered as the six had undegone physical and mental hardship under detention and would voluntarily turn up for the hearing, DPP Suhaimi Ibrahim insisted that the amount should remain the same.

The six are Sungai Siput MP Dr Jeyakumar Devaraj, PSM activists Choo Chon Kai, Sarat Babu, M Sarasvathy, M Sukumaran, and A Letchumanan.

They will be tried together with 24 other PSM activists who had been charged earlier.

Section 48 states that anyone who acts on behalf of or represents an unlawful society by bringing with them 600 photocopies of pamphlets is liable to a maximum penalty of five years' jail, a fine of up to RM5,000, or both.

Section 43 stipulates that whoever is a member, attends meetings of or aids, an unlawful society is liable, on conviction, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years or to a fine not exceeding RM5,000, or both.

The same charges were brought against 24 other activists who were detained in Sungai Dua, Penang, while on their 'Udah Bersaralah' roadshow on June 25.

All 30 activists were initially detained on suspicion of planning to wage war against the Agong.

The reason was later reduced to that of posing a threat to public order.

The police then said the six had been detained over their 'key role' in the July 9 Bersih 2.0 rally.

However, they were released on July 29.

'Authorities have mishandled the case'

Meanwhile, speaking outside the courthouse, Jeyakumar said the authorities have mishandled their case as badly as they had treated the Bersih 2.0 rally.

He added that the government had “shot themselves in the foot” when they arrested the PSM activists and ordered police to treat Bersih protesters harshly.

By the government's mishandling of Bersih and PSM activists, the former had allowed the protest to benefit the opposition, he stressed.

“They could have joined the call for electoral reforms and taken the wind out of the rally,” he said.

Jeyakumar (right) also criticised the authorities for not being very “astute” when charging the six.

“This charge is keeping our issue alive; it has now given us more publicity, which we would not have been able to get in four years,” he added.

PSM lawyers are planning to submit an application for a judicial review on the EO charge to question the government's misuse of power towards its citizens.

Sarasvathy (left) said the charges on the six today will create another wave of dissatisfaction towards the government as PSM would continue to fight repression in the country.

“We always believe in people's power and today we are proven right... if we dare to be brave, the people would dare to have change, that is what we are seeing now,” she added.

Real solid proof that BN is going to rigged the up coming General Election!!!

Despite repeated guarantee by the Election Commission (EC) that no foreigner is allowed to be registered as a voter, the verification system of the National Registration Department (NRD) and the EC has shown otherwise.

A permanent resident (PR) holder has been accepted as a new voter in Ijok, the state seat held by Selangor Menteri Besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim.

Malaysiakini was informed by a reader that a permanent resident named Mismah has been registered in the latest supplementary electoral roll which is now on display for public scrutiny.

A check with the online verification system of both the NRD and EC confirmed the allegation.

The NRD online verification system, which allows users to check the status of an individual by entering the PR card number, shows that Mismah (No. 640704715238) is a permanent resident.

However, when the same number was entered into the EC online verification system, Mismah appeared as a newly-registered voter.

She was registered as a voter in the Ijok state constituency and Kuala Selangor parliamentary constituency, which are respectively held by Khalid from PKR and Dzulkelfy Ahmad from PAS.

A check of the NRD online verification system twice - at 5.48pm yesterday and 11.30am today - had shown that a person named Mismah was a PR holder who had collected her MyPR card (No. 640704715238), an identification card for PR.

When the same number was entered into the Election Commission (EC) online verification system, Mismah appeared as a newly-registered voter.

However, another check with the NRD system at 3pm returned a shocking result - the same Mismah has become a citizen who has collected her blue Mykad.

According to election laws, the EC updates the electoral roll every three months with a quarterly supplementary electoral roll draft.

The names of all newly-registered voters, voters who have changed their residing addresses and voters who have been removed from the electoral roll, are compiled in the supplementary electoral roll draft.

The roll is then displayed usually for one week, for public scrutiny, before it is gazetted and used in the next election.

During the display period, members of the public can raise their objection to the names listed in the supplementary electoral roll.

Allegations of foreigners being illegally registered as voters to shore up the support of certain political parties have been continually raised by the opposition parties but constantly denied by the EC.

EC employs 33 types of vetting

In one of the latest responses in May, EC chairperson Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof said only citizens are allowed to be registered as voters, and that verification is done through the Agency Link-Up System (Alis) of the NRD.

Through the system, the EC cross-checks with NRD and employs 33 types of vetting before any application to become a voter can be approved.

“During the registration process, the applicant's identifier will be cross-checked with the NRD through Alis. The EC will only process the application if the details tally with the NRD records," he said.

“The system will automatically reject any fraudulent attempts to register a voter."

Tipped-off by readers, Malaysiakini also found other suspicious names on the electoral rolls.

Two eligible voters - Basri Buru Bin Alimin (Mykad: 250622715425) and Soessje Scwanne Jetty Silvana Groeneveld (Mykad: 380424715016) - which appeared on the EC online verification system as voters registered in the Hulu Langat parliamentary constituency, have no record on the NRD website.

The NRD online verification system states 'no application/the number entered is not valid' when the two numbers were entered.

This raises the question as to whether the two individuals are citizens of Malaysia.

THE EC IN TOTAL DENIAL!

The Election Commission (EC) has denied that permanent residents (PR) have been registered as voters, saying that the cases exposed yesterday could be a result of technical negligence on the part of National Registration Department (NRD).

"I think the list of PR names in the NRD's website was the old one and not updated," said EC chairperson Abdul Aziz Yusof (left) in a text-message to Malaysiakini late last night.
The Election Commission (EC) has changed the status of Mismah, a 'permanent resident' whose name had been entered in the draft electoral roll.

THE EC TRYING TO COVER THIER ASS!

Based on a check of its online verification system at 2pm, under the 'record status', (highlighted in screen capture, right) it is now stated that her application to register as a voter is dalam proses pengesahan daftar pemilih (being verified for the electoral roll).

Her name had been included in the draft supplementary electoral roll that has been opened for public scrutiny for a week.

BEWARE!! THIS IS CLEARLY BN'S WAY OF TRYING TO STAY IN POWER!!!

WE REALLY NEED A CLEAN AND FAIR ELECTION NOW!!!
