16.6mil summonses not paid yetAm surprised to read in the starpaper that there's a whopping 17 Mil summonses given out - and not collected to-date. That is one hell of an IOU dude! If the 17 Mil is straight forward summonses, meaning no one is going to contest the legality of it, then that is revenue for the government coffer dude.

The headlines in sun2surf Oct 4th 2007 and Malaysiakini Lingam tape: Name source or face jail just reinforce the public perception that the ACA is not partial and lack transparency in executing their duties.I have a number of layman questions which I hope the new ACA Director can answer:1: Why are they in a hurry to find out who the whistle-blower is? What purpose would it serve?2: Can the ACA

According to a report in thestar paper: ACA wants to be respected, not feared..Respect is earned not asked for. The ACA director when asked about comparing with ICAC has this to say: Q: Would you like to see the ACA modelled after the much-feared ICAC in Hong Kong? A: To say the ICAC in Hong Kong is feared and better is incorrect. In fact, they adopted our laws and learnt from us. We have a

I WAS aghast to read that Perlis Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim wants to employ “former gangsters” and “village bullies” as law enforcement officers, “Ex-gangsters to enforce laws”, (The Star, Nov 5). His argument does not hold up at all. If the present enforcement officers are losing the respect of the people there must be something wrong in the way they execute their duties.

I've not taken taxi for awhile - well, at least not after I bought my 18 years old Toyota Corona for the past 2 years. It's a reliable car, never broke down b4 (touch wood..)though a bit old and during heavy storm I need to improvise with a an umbrella but then, hey, it gets me from point A to point B. But anyway, for 1 day every week, I'ld still need to rely on our ever "efficient" and ever "

It's indeed encouraging to hear the PM speaking about doing business with integrity at a function organised by the Kuala Lumpur Society for Transparency and Integrity. However, it will be extra better if the PM can get his house in order - root out the (Slang)Neanderthals and the brain expired MPs whose only contribution is making nonsensical mumbo-jumbo in the press and in the process

It seemed like consumers in Malaysia ia always at the other end of the bargain table. Just take a look at The Star Paper today. Hotlink make an announcement to the general public informing them not to purchase the Hotlink Top Up tickets with Serial Numbers so and so...because the said tickets are stolen and Hotlink has already deactivated it. To show their seriousness, they even cited the

I really wonder what is the job description of a Datuk Bandar. Does it includes the delivery of newspaper to all the government department in Ipoh, as was reported in the Malay Mail yesterday? What is the relationship between NST, a supposedly private entity with the office of the Datuk Bandar, a public institution? Isnt the role of the Datuk Bandar to take care of the well-being of people in

I've not updated my blog for awhile - plain lazy, anyway, most of what I wanted to blog was blogged somewhere else.... and they always sounded so rational, logical and organised than me!! Anyway, I have to blog this. Like most other Msians out there I am "frustrated" with the recent brouhaha surrounding Jeff (the blog/news I read for mind stimulation unlike reading the dailies where you get

Last nite, my friend and I attended a seminar organised by the DAP with the theme of "The Lessons from CannyOng Case: Reduce Crime & the Fear of Crime. Speakers includes, Lim Kit Siang DAP National Chairman, Ramdas Tikamdas Hakam President, Maria Chin Abdullah Women Development Collective Exe. Director, Chong Eng Member of Parliament, Tan Sri Norian Mai Inspector General of Police who was a no

With the recent rise in crime especially towards women and the much publise Canny Ong case many parties have been touting about self defense for women. However, no one actually highlighted the definition of self defence. As a result many would be thinking about self defence in terms of learning martial arts, may it be karate, taekwondo, wushu or even silat which unfortunately is not the end of

In The Straits Times Sporeyesterday (Thurs, 26th June) it was reported that Datuk Seri Abdullah speech during the UMNO general assembly was peppered with verses from the Quran and that this is an indication that he is ready to fight PAS on their turf so as to win more votes. I dont know who is Datuk Seri strategist but he ought to be sack and be ask to join the National Service Program to

I have always respected Datuk Chan KC. During the MCA fracas he has lied low, maybe because he is a behind the scene man but whatever, my respect for him is he threw less mud than the rest. But I have to disagree on his speech about "Chinese must work with other races." Maybe I am mistaken but I thought all this while the chinese has always been too happy to work with anyone who has a viable

The National Service Programme is a grand idea borne out by some politicians who rightly deduce that unity and patroticism is lacking in today youth or should I say malaysians? The proposed 3 months training period of which 1 month will be on camping stint and 2 months of hostels living. The main component in the national service curriculum are:- 1:Basic military training. 2:Nation and

Wrote this to the "Letters" page of The Star In reference to your report about "Efforts to lower prices of original VCDs, DVDs" 19th Jun article. I laud the move by the local licensee to bring down further the pricing for original VCDs and DVDs. Being savvy businessman this conglomerate licensee should be able to feel the pulse of the consumer market and respond accordingly. However, I cant

Today in The Star MCA Secretary Tan Sri Teng suggested members be registered only at the branch where they live or work. I have always thought this is the case since it is only logical. How can I register myself in Johor if I hail from Ipoh but work and live in KL? What can I do for the Johor branch if I am not physically there? However, to actually implement this suggestion will take some
