Susan Loone's Pathetic Sortie

Hantu Laut

In most big family there is good chance that one or more child would be black sheep. I mean, a child that is born biologically bad and no amount of moulding can reshape their insatiable appetite to do the wrong thing.Some come from good and well to do families where other offspring are normal. The black sheep are evidently different from the rest and are probably born with chromosomal defects.


When such thing happened to a child people tend to blame the parents for poor upbringing.In most cases no parents want their children to be bad.Even some bad parents don't want their children to be bad. Some may become bad due to parental neglect but some are just born with bad chromosome making them impossible to deal with, a thorn in their parents' flesh and a danger to society.They can immerse themselves from petty crimes to the most atrocious ones.


It was recently reported that Raja Petra's son was caught by the police for thef and in possession of stolen goods and he admitted to the crimes.

I am writing this article not because I would place blame on Raja Petra and his wife.I fully understand his predicament and as I have said earlier, sometimes, as parents, we may have exhausted every possible means to get the child turn over a new leaf but are left helpless and heartbroken.


In the case of Raja Petra's son he is no more a child, he is 31, he is considered a man and has passed the age of parental control. Raja Petra can't be faulted for what this young man did.

I am writing this article not because of what his son did, that's none of my concern, I am writing this to bring forth the ridiculousness of this antagonistic blogger who due her deep hatred for Najib and the government try to politicise the case and makes it appears as a retaliation against Raja Petra. I quote some of what she wrote below:

"Sure I read the story about Raja Petra’s son (here). Sure, many are doubtful that the story is even true.

I, too, have my questions, let’s put those aside.

All I can say is the police and the courts are really efficient when it comes to Raja Petra son’s crimes. I salute them. Hope they can be as efficient when it comes to other crimes, too.

I wonder, when it comes to big and internationally acclaimed crimes like murder by military/c4 explosives, we still do not yet know WHY the hell did those two cops blow up Altantuya, when they didn't even know her".

She made the impression that the whole thing was a frame-up.

A crime is a crime no matter how small it is.

It's a pity politics has ruined her faculty to tell left from right and right from wrong.

Anifah/Clinton Joint Press Conference:Better Than Good

Hantu Laut

Watch the video.A joint press conference between US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton and Malaysian Foreign Minister Anifah Aman.Can you see any semblance of severe case of delusion as preferred by this envious and sycophantic DJ blogger here.



He speaks well and better than some of our previous ministers and didn't have the kampong accent of Anwar Ibrahim.

Setting the record straight is not an attack.Only those carrying Anwar's ball would intentionally misconstrue what he says.


Don't have to be prolix to send the message across.

Should The Sultan Prorogue The Perak State Assembly ?

Hantu Laut

There seems to be no end in sight to the Perak crisis.The situation had gotten worse by the diverse interpretations and misinterpretations of the constitution.The latest cooking of the broth was one by Tommy Thomas, so-called constitutional expert and one of the counsels for the insolent Sivakumar. Are there lawyers who actually specialised in constitutional law in this country or just another one of those general practitioners?

A check on Tommy Thomas revealed he had been charged for contempt of court.The judgement of the Court Of Appeal is here.Those in Pakatan seem to court lawyers that have little respect for our judicial system.Those that make derogatory statements against the judiciary if judgement made were not in their favour.


The crisis in Perak is exacerbated mostly by lawyers or so-called legal minds giving their own interpretations of the law.The monarch, the judicial system and the powers that be have all been mauled and mercilessly dragged in the mud. Dialectic is gone and dead, replaced by act of confrontation and civil society that have gone bonkers with defiance and incivility. Even an ex-ISA detainee that has been released recently showed continued defiance and little respect for the law threatening the government to show his displeasure by going to the streets with thousands of his supporters. A wannabe hero the likes of Ghandi and Mendela
except he is a ruffian and a troublemaker rather than a man of conscience, obviously seeking fame on the wrong platform.

The Perak crisis will not go away and if there is not going to be a dissolution soon the only possible solution is for the Sultan to prorogue the state assembly under Article 36.2 of the constitution until the court clear all the cases.The sitting
menteri besar can seek the Sultan's indulgence for prorogation of the assembly with a time frame.

To be fair to both sides the court must show expediency to dispose off the cases as quickly as possible and whatever the judgement was both sides must show respect.

The Perak case have some similarity with the 2008-2209 Canadian political dispute where oppositions parties in the House of Commons planned to pass a vote of no confidence against the minority government formed by the Conservative Party only six weeks after a general elections.Prime Minister Stephen Harper requested the Governor-General to prorogue parliament thereby delaying a possible change in government. Dissolution was not considered as the Governor-General felt
to put the Canadian people through an election before six months would have been irresponsible.

It has been slightly over a year since the general elections. Whether it is fair to drag the Perakians to the polls again would be a matter of interpretation.

Just an idea.

Second DPM in PKR's Sabah manifesto

Hantu Laut

Whether Anwar Ibrahim offered Anifah Aman the DPM post or not only both of them would know.

The promise of a DPM post is definitely in PKR's Sabah manifesto as widely reported before the 8 March 2008 General Elections in major newspapers in Sabah.Since Pakatan failed to take over power the DPM post must have been left open for the frog that can bring the most frogs over to Pakatan..

Kota Kinabalu: Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Sabah, launched another manifesto here themed "A New Hope for Sabah and Malaysia" promising a second Deputy Prime Minister if it rules the land below the wind.

"As partners to the formation of Malaysia, the Borneo states deserve to have a Deputy Prime Minister for without the Borneo states, there would have been no Malaysia.

"Thus, under the PKR government there will be a second Deputy Prime Minister for East Malaysia," the PKR said in its 14-point manifesto launched Wednesday by State PKR Vice President Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan. State PKR head Ansari Abdullah was also present.

Other points in the manifesto included termination of any petroleum agreement with national oil company, Petronas, and replacing it with a petroleum sharing agreement apart from a review of the Petronas Act to give a fair revenue to Sabah.

PKR would also ensure that state immigration be placed under "state matter," where the movement of people in and out of Sabah would come under the purview of the state government and "the director of immigration would be a Sabahan".

The party said if it rules Sabah, Federal Territory Labuan will come under the jurisdiction of Sabah without changing the status of the island as an Offshore Financial Centre.

PKR also promised to introduce a comprehensive economic and development plan for Sabah called the Development Agenda for Sabah.

For the March 8 election, the opposition is putting up 55 candidates for the 59 states seats.

It promised to resolve the illegal immigrant problem in Sabah, restore relevant State rights, see to land reforms as well as set up a comprehensive economic and development plan for the State.

The manifesto also focussed on increasing the State's per capita income from RM10,000 to RM15,000, promoting transparency in the government as well as ensuring more women participate in decision-making processes.

PKR also wants to replace the Federal Development Department in Sabah (JPPS), which it describes as a waste of public funds, with a State Development Department (JPN) to ensure development funds go straight to the State Government.

On land reforms, PKR promised to restore the role of the village chiefs (Ketua Kampung) and Ketua Anak Negeri in land applications besides setting up a Land Reform Committee to review existing land laws.

An agency known as the Sabah Native Land Development Authority (SNLDA) will also be established by a PKR government for native land and interest.

The party also vowed to democratise the appointments of Village Development and Security Committees (JKKKs) as well as village chiefs (Ketua Kampung) and ensure these JKKKs are actively involved in the development of the respective villages. As such all projects costing RM25,000 and below will be implemented directly by these JKKKs.

PKR Vice-President Datuk Dr Jeffrey Kitingan said the manifesto is a supplement to the national PKR manifesto entitled "A New Dawn for Malaysia", which was launched recently by party adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

"I am confident the people would accept the manifesto as they have had enough of Barisan Nasional's empty promises since it come to power", he said after the launching at his residence at Bukit Padang, near here.

He claimed the BN's just unveiled manifesto themed "Security, Peace and Prosperity" was just another of its sweet promises".

"We must remember that when BN launched 'Sabah Baru' in the previous election, it promised to reduce poverty to zero, housing for all, etcÉ but today we bear witness that all their promises have not been fulfilled and for that the current government must be change," he said.

Jeffrey went on to say that the real power in BN Sabah was Umno and that the 10 component parties have little say in the State Government.

He urged the people of Sabah, especially the young voters not to be misled by the BN's promises and instead vote PKR for change.

"Sabahans have a history of making brave changes when needed and together we can do it again," he said.
