Pakatan leader Lim Guan Eng has been summoned by the PDRM over a Pakatan statement concerning the State of Emergency made some time in January! Once again the PDRM have given us a public demonstration of their alertness to alleged offences. Or did it take more than a month for the minority coup “government” to […]

Well if you are already taking everything you can lay hands  why not be first in the queue for a life saving vaccine. That may be why ‘PM8’ grabbed the very first vaccine in Malaysia. VVIPs first for the jab as with all the public money that can be grabbed as well. Personal selfishness and

It is confirmed that two police officers went to the offices of publisher Gerakbudaya and “took away” two computers. Unless they were helping themselves to another’s property this seizure must have been to secure evidence. Evidence of what? Unless and until the IGP can offer a rational public explanation for this action there will inevitably

Has gone public with an excoriating denunciation of PN muzzling of Parliament. With biting accuracy she exposes the totalitarian conduct of the Moo government and, by implication, its top level backers. She is, on this occasion at least, absolutely right in denouncing the totalitarian conduct of PN which clearly despises democracy and is plainly planning

It is reported that the first recipient of the Covid vaccine will be none other than ‘PM8’! Now there is a surprise! Leading by example is the excuse put out by PN!  Or, as many Malaysians will assume, just another example of PN grabbing everything they can get. After all it is no use filling

Assuming that reports are correct, it appears that a citizen was denied approval to travel by the immigration authorities on the ground that his reason for travel was to visit his male partner overseas. While Malaysia, behind the times in this, still criminalises homosexual conduct its writ only runs, as with all countries, over what

Why is there such a storm of criticism about the book recently published by former AG Tommy Thomas? After it is just a memoir by a senior and experienced lawyer about his career and things that happened and in which he was involved. The most probable explanation for this critical attack is that what he

Although all expert medical advice makes it clear that the virus is no respecter of persons, however important or self-important they may be and that it infects anyone it can get to, nevertheless it is not so important that it can be allowed to interfere with PN ministerial business. Not for more than three days

Is what defector MLA and “senior minister” Azmin is reported as claiming as his ambition. Laudable indeed and he has shown by example, his, that at least some Malaysians have already achieved that ambition. More surprisingly he stated that he would contest the electoral seat by which he became a MLA at the next election.

Is what PN law minister Takyuddin said will be taken against those who “belittle” the country’s judicial and legal services, including its officers” As “law” minister he perhaps knows about a law, unknown to the rest of us, which prohibits forming opinions about the competence or impartiality of Malaysian legal services. If so perhaps he

Press reports quote the Johore PDRM chief as warning the public not to tarnish the “royal institution” and to “respect it” Just who does he think he is? The final and unquestionable arbiter of public opinion? Or the boss of the entire Malaysian public with powers to regulate its thinking and opinions? In fact his

UMNO boss, and criminal trial defendant, Zahid is complaining he “only got” that large amount of money for his constituency. First question is what from vote of public money was the allocation, and presumably others to PN MLAs, authorised? Is there now a publicly acknowledged Budget provision for “backhanders” to PN MLAs?. If so does

“In the process of democracy”. The reported words of the minority Malaysian Prime Minister when referring to the recent military coup in Myanmar. Absolutely right. But did he stop to think about his own position and that of the illegal PN government when formulating that view of recent events in that country? Does he really

Those who opine that freedom of speech is not absolute need to think again. Of course it is! Where governments think that it represents a danger to individuals or the community they can, and do, legislate to limit it in specific ways. None of that can be news to any lawyer in Malaysia. Nor can

The PN appointed Speaker has stated that although the Assembly is suspended “other activities can go on” . Unfortunately he did not go on to specify what those “other activities” might be. The continued filling of PN pockets from public funds? The drawing of salaries from those funds despite the non-performance of duties in respect
