HOW THE NEWSPAPERS DISTORT TRUTH

Its good to be back! (my work keeps me away from civilization)

Anyway just a short example on how a reporter can distort any news to sway public opinion.

A pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won. The pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again, and it won again.

The local paper read:

PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT

The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the pastor not to enter the donkey in another race.

The next day, the local paper headline read:

BISHOP SCRATCHES PASTOR'S ASS

This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the pastor to get rid
of the donkey.

The pastor decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent.

The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following headline
the next day:

NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN

The bishop fainted.
He informed the nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey, so
she sold it to a farmer for $10.

The next day the paper read:

NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10 *

This was too much for the bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back
the donkey and lead it to the plains where it could run wild.

The next day the headlines read:

NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE *

The bishop was buried the next day.

CHEERS!!

ARE WE ALL RACIST ?

To a certain extend I believe this to be true. Nobody in this world can deny this fact!. Yes we try very hard not to be one and I like to think we are above this racist problem. But the fact is the color of the skin plays a very important part in our daily life. We cannot sweep this fact under the carpet and say everything is nice and dandy. Yes most of us try our best not to be racist, we choose our words carefully and try our uttermost to be considerate, to all cultures.
I have travelled the world and have yet to find a place where racism does not exists. Yes there are laws in every country to protect us from racial problems. The fact that these laws exists speaks volumes about this matter. Why do you need laws if there is no racism?.
It will take many generations , to overcome this hurdle, because as I see the world as it is now, the only way to have proper control over everyone is divide and rule. This in away wakes up racism to its very core. Now we know this problem will not go away soon. So how to we navigate this troubled waters to achieve some sort of peace and security for mankind?. Is the some magic formula we can emulate to work out some sort of strategy that can work for all?. From what I can see the only way is to educate our young ones to this fact. We are already to old to change our mind set, although we are wise enough to avoid the pit holes that can cause trouble. If we can teach our younglings to be more tolerant and to respect other races then there is hope. But for this to happen it takes generations, but we have to start the ball rolling now for it to take root.

I pity the trashing that sammy blogger got for her posting. But even out anger a person should not utter words that ridicule a whole community just because the thief’s were Indians. Words spoken out of anger are the most damaging even though you regret it later. So you see what I mean by educating our young ones. We can set the ball in motion, lets start, so that the next generation will rid this nasty racist problem once and for all.

On a different note, I have to say I am pissed of with four indian youth recently. Though I am an indian to the core, I am pissed at these guys! Last week my mum and dad, both nearing their 75’s were visiting a friend in johor baru. And guess what, they were robbed at knife point, by these four guys. Luckily there were not hurt, my dad lost all his money and wallet. And my mum lost something so precious to her. They took her wedding chain, that she had with for 65 years. But guess what my mum said to me, she was not angry at all. She just said that, they most probably needed the money more then her. And they did not even bother making a police report. 
Well anyway every where in the world we have bad hats, but the point is we should not blame the community for them…..cheers.

THE FALLEN ANGEL

He has known only light since coming to power with the huge mandate given to him by Malaysians in 2004. But after the 2008 elections the sleepy one has been tumbling through the void of darkness and grace. And it has not stopped since then. And today it seems the talk is to postpone the DEC08 elections to Mar09, for what purpose only the falling one can comprehend.

The windows of power and glory is surely but slowly been closing for the sleepy head that I can only vision that it must really hurt and be so terrible to him as he will be the only PM to be thrown out of power before his time , and to walk forever as a fallen one to be shunned even by his own kind. The transfer of power to his deputy has to be done much quickly as the ground swell does not support the 2010 handover. So how to avoid a slap in the face by his own supporters? There is no graceful exit, the writing on the wall and it has been there all along, but guess what, he has not workup yet to read it.

So will we have a new PM by DEC08? I hope so. Any change would be better then what we have now, maybe the new PM would release all the ISA detainees to curry favors among us. That’s a good thought.

But wait , were is our anwar in this equation. Will he make a move or is waiting for something we are unaware about. He has the numbers, but whats stopping him? That’s another riddle for me to solve.

In the mean time , with all the power brokers dividing our country among themselves, lets not give up hope and keep our heads and remember our DEAR RPK in our daily prayers and wish him a very happy birthday and pray that GOD will keep him in high spirits and keep him focused . Please support all the events relating to RPK’S release. ,,cheers

LET THOSE WHO WISH YOU HARM  FALL IN THE SHIT HOLE THEY DIG!

WILL MCA JUMP SHIP

THIS IS THE MILLION$ QUESTION.
The answer is however a Billion$ answer!
MCA vice-president Datuk Donald Lim Siang Chai said today the party should "look at the bigger picture" and not rush into a hasty decision to leave the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition". If this is an indication of things to come, it will be very interesting to watch the OCTOBER MCA elections for the top posts and working committee.
The current president and vp OKT and CKY have decided not to seek re election. So the new batch will have their hands full to convince a number of chinese community leaders why MCA should stay with BN. In a way i have a feeling the present president and vp have taken the easy way out by not facing this mother of all decision.
Anyway my advice to MCA is:
IT DOES NOT MATTER IF JUMP SHIP OR NOT.
WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS TO SUPPORT PRUDENT ECONOMIC AND PEOPLE FRIENDLY POLICIES AND NOT BE A YES MAN TO ANY PARTY! CALL A SPADE A SPADE!....CHEERS

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM ZAID

I was reading the press conference Zaid gave yesterday. i was pleasantly surprised at the command of his language. He is one guy we should watch. Here are some of the words of wisdom that spilled forth from his gap.

He termed the cabinet as a brickwall……how beautifully put.

Why should I go on leave as suggested by the sleepy one, I am not tired, I am disappointed! …. Very well said!

Abdullah badawi has been supportive but “within his own constraints”…. Shows that Abdullah is only talk but no walk!

I don’t care who forms the government, I just want to see transformation……a man with fire in his soul for changes for the better…..a man with a purpose!

You can still be a champion for your race and think of the country……a well rounded man!

He resigned because of his frustrations in trying to achieve the reforms he had been tasked with doing; the final being the recent arrest of three people under the Internal Security Act….a man after my own heart.

This one takes the cake! He said, You can have a race-based party but you don’t have to be racist bigots,” he said on his last day in office.

Well datuk my hats off to you, you are a true statesman …….cheers

Was away for a few weeks, thus the sorry state of my blog not being updated...my apologies!

But the events unfolding in my beloved land is such that its like sitting on a hot tin roof. Not knowing whats going to happen next.

Anwar has got his numbers, badawi is refusing to meet him for a pow wow. so the sleepy one thinks that he can ignore this by sweeping it under the carpet.

In the mean time this is alist of things to do:

1) pray for RPK and his immediate release

3) thank Zaid Ibrahim for his stand......bravo datuk we need more politicians like you
4)boycot utusan
5) boycot all advertisers in utusan......let them know we mean bussiness
6) most of all pray that the transfer of power will be peaceful.......cheers

MORE SKELETON’S IN SAMY’S CUPBOARD

I copied this extract from kula.blogsome.com

A 2.4 hectare land in Petaling Jaya alienated for the Effingam Tamil School in Petaling Jaya Selangor has been found to be registered to the name of MIC president Samy Vellu. 

This is the most outrageous thing possible. It is even more outrageous for Samy Vellu and the MIC to claim “administrative error by the land office” as reason why his name appears as beneficial owner in the land title.

 This is a clear case of corruption that the ACA must investigate habis habis. Anything less than a through investigation is unacceptable. A man who claims to champion Tamil school education is now found to be beneficial owner of a land intended for the promotion of a Tamil school. 

An “administrative error” as reason is totally unacceptable. There is no room for errors in such legal matter involving land titles especially when it originally involved the MIC and later it appears Samy Vellu is the beneficial owner.

This is just the tip of the iceberg, I wonder how many other “admin error” has taken place?. Only GOD knows. I hope the ACA will dig deep into this and other matters concerning samy, as he every now and then trumpets that his is the so called champion for Indians ……..cheers

"Anwarized" - meaning: To get back-stabbed.. i.e. People who have been anwarized may contact the DPM's hotline

"Badawized" - meaning: To be stupified ...........i.e. Malaysians seem to be badawized by the media which reports biased news

"Najibbed" - meaning: To be blown to bits .....i.e. In this country,you better be careful with what you say, you can be najibbed otherwise

"Petrad" - meaning: To be exposed ...........i.e. Lately the BN coalition has been petrad in many ways

"KayJayed" - meaning: To shout for no reason i.e. He kayjayed in the Dewan and appeared like a moron

"Balaed" - meaning: To vanish suddenly i.e. They opposition balaed from the meeting in protest

"Lingamed" - meaning: To repeat redundantly i.e. The Information Minister lingamed the same rubbish in the debate recently.

As short fiction :

Razak was badawized into covering up for Najis while Najis balaed from the scene. Razak was actually anwarized.

However Najis lingamed that he had nothing to do with it and has been kayjaying on the topic in an attempt to prove his innocence.

Nevertheless, some quarters have been threatening that they have soileked evidence that Najis was involved.

To Love Malaysia, is to know Malaysia"

WHY IS THIS GUY NOT LOCKED UP?

I am away in Indonesia on a project, and being lacking behind on my updates. But I still keep in touch with going ons through the internet cafes. But I was sad to hear that we still have people like Ahmad Ismail around.

UMNO Bukit Bendera divisional chairman Ahmad Ismail said that the Chinese are squatting in Malaysia and if they are in power, they will not be fair to all races.

Why is this Ahmad not arrested and charged with inciting racial hatred and sedition?

The media and the government would have run berserk had an Opposition politician made the same statement and cry for the sedition act .

Why the double standard? Where is the home minister on this matter, oh does he have his usual nonsensical explanation on this matter?

Why are the MCA and Gerakan hiding their tails and burying their heads like an ostrich . Not a squeak from this bedfellows. And they claim they fight for Chinese rights???.

Where is the sleeping Buddha, who claims that he is the PM for all?. Came on Malaysia you can do better then this. Kick these goons out. They bring only rot and shit to our country.

I was laughing to myself, when I heard that Malaysia today was ordered to be blocked by the government. Are these numbskulls still living in the stoneage. In this day and age the internet is bigger than anybody. How can you stop that. Have they not heard of mirror sites?. This goes to show what kind of mentality are running our country. God help us.

Anyway Malaysia Today can still be accessed from within Malaysia. Its address is http://mt.harapanmalaysia.com

If you are and expert with computers you can use the open DNS system (DNS stands for domain name service).you can download it and its free. This open DNS allows you to use alternative servers(by pass) to the ones provided by local ISPs.

Or you can do a search of Malaysia Today using proxy servers. All this methods are available in the cyberspace. I wonder which idiots are running the MCMC's , not to know that you cannot hold water in a strainer .

Well anyway thanks to PP votes , we have some saving grace for Malaysia. With anwar back in parliament things are already looking better. I am praying very hard, that by sep 16, anwar will be in power and put all this bullshit behind us and move forward to really running our country the way it should……..cheers

PP ELECTION UPDATE 1

As of 1500hrs today anwar is leading by 68% on the exit polls. That is not a surprise as we already knew who will win this by election.
The interesting thing however is wheather arif shah will get back his deposit?. punters are having a tough time taking bets on this. Odds are now running at 2 to 1 that arif will lose his deposit.
What ever it is, my only concern is only that the election commission will make it easy for anwar to return to parliment tomorrow. ....cheeers

DIRTY TRICKS AND THE BY ELECTION

Dear friends: life lately has been a roller coaster ride for me.. I had three major projects to handle and its keeping me all tied up. My blog has suffered from lack of updates, and my wife thinks I have a mistress, because of coming home late for the last two weeks. Well that’s life. 

And whats up at the PP by election. Latest I heard are some underhand tactics are being employed by our BN goons. SMS are flying all over PP , especially in malay dominant areas proclaiming anwar to be a “Chinese stooge pigeon” , “ a Chinese agent”. Anwar has accused the goons as harping the racial divided. 

If I was anwar, I would not lose sleep over this matter. 95% of people in Malaysia are in tuned to whats happening, so don’t worry anwar. Just get you campaign on the road.
REFORM AND INDEPENDENCE is a good slogan. That’s what Malaysia needs now more than ever. The voters in PP are not easily swayed by the dirty tricks, so come aug 26, you will on your way to be the next prime minister.

With the two medical reports that he has on his sodomy case, any proper judge will throw out the case. And the theatrical swearing on the holy book by that Saiful sodomite is clearly political motivated. Why drag GOD into this whole think is beyond me and for what purpose?. If we can swear by the holy book , than why do we need courts, judges, lawyers?. Why not just swear your innocence for every case ! it will save us so much time and money. Only people stupid enough will do this. But then again I cannot blame our leaders in our government, the grey matter is very much lacking or in some case totally devoid.  

Only 9 days left for the mother of all elections. The future of our nation and the people now rest in the hands of the voters in PP. Don’t give BN even 5% of the votes. Let them know we mean business and send them packing for good!. You PP votes will be our saviours and your good deed will never be forgotten. ..cheers.

WILL THE REAL ASS-HOLE PLEASE STAND?

From the very beginning of sodomy II, I was cracking my head and wondering at the same time which ass hole actually orchestrated this sickening episode.

After reading all the theories and evaluations around the blogger sphere I am still at a lost who this mysterious ass hole is.

Saiful and anwar are mere pawns in this chess game. Who is or who are the people behind this sodomy II. The hidden hands so to speak.

Ok lets put all the cards on the table.

1st lets label all the players.

a) badawi

b) najib

c) tengku li

d) mayuddin

e) anwar

f) the AG

g) the IGP

h) shafee ( AG in waiting)

i) an unknown group ( very rich and very connected and above the law)

j) DR M

k) Syed (botak from johor)

According to malaysiakini one writer has sort of analyzed the so called facts and came out blaming DR M.

According to Malaysia-today admin they are going with the new AG in waiting, MR Shafee.

My 2 cents, I beg to differ. I will go along with the item i) an unknown group. It maybe my mind tend to bends towards the unknown that I am guessing this to be the case. Why I choose to be different is because of the following:

1) the umnoputera’s would have put a better case then whats happening now. They had had the experience of sodomy I, so if they wanted to frame some one, it would have be a better fix up.

2) After the grass roots up rising after sodomy I, I doubt umno would take the same route.

3) Some coffee shop shop talk says, anwar himself set this upon himself to gain sympathy. I doubt this very much. No one in his right mind will do this.

4) My believe is badawi, najib and the rest of cabinet were actually caught with their pants down when this news broke. They were surprised as the rest of us. But they tried their best to use this to their advantage and slow anwar down.

5) The unknown group (very rich ,connected and above the law), gets my vote. We will be fools to believe if such a group does not exist. Even in the most power country (USA) there are certain groups that operate above the law, and why not in our country. These group have their claws in every public and private institutions. A very powerful group, who wants UMNO to continue their rule in Malaysia. They see the PKR solidarity as a threat to their existence. So disrupt the timetable of PKR to form the next government.

6) This sodomy II was let loose, not to get a conviction, but to slow things down. That’s what I feel. Why slow down PKR?. Who knows, maybe to re-organise their group to be better prepare for the eventuality . I am sure Saiful has a fat bank account in an offshore bank, and after the trials, he would just disappear and relocate in brazil or Colombia for all I know. So he has nothing to loose. So were did this money come from? A few million for this group is like peanuts, so why not.

Well that’s just my 2 cents imagination at work, I will stick to these theory until something solid comes by……cheers.

WHAT OTHER NEWS ARE SAYING

I scanned some news articles and this is what they are saying……

People have come to the conclusion that the closer anwar is to wanting to obtain power, the more difficult others will make it for him to achieve that.

The economy is in a rut, Anwar faces another lurid court case on the same charge, and a majority of Malaysians are convinced the ruling coalition concocted the allegations to once again sabotage his political ambitions.

The timing of the new charges, days after the charismatic 61-year-old announced he would contest a by-election to return to parliament, has fuelled suspicions of a conspiracy.

Malaysians interviewed at a Kuala Lumpur petrol station, where they filled up after a recent 41 per cent price hike, had strikingly similar views, accusing the government of staging a sideshow to deflect attention from economic woes.

"The new sodomy charges against Anwar Ibrahim are all a political game because he is now a real threat to the prime minister," said Abdul Halim, a 28-year-old designer.

Businessman Mohamad Fazli Farid said the government should focus instead on the plight of ordinary workers who are unable to cope with high fuel and food prices on chronically low wages.

"It looks like the government is out to fix him again. Everyone knows that the charge against him is nothing but a lie," said 46-year-old Suhaimi Samsuddin.

"The only thing we can do now is to vote for Anwar and make sure he gets to parliament and eventually form the government. Only then can we right all that is wrong in this country."…..extract from CNA

If anwar comes to power, he has promised to carry out major reforms of the police, AG office and the judiciary. It will be good for Malaysia and the rakyat if can carry this reforms. At least we can walk tall again.

This is an extract of what he said at a press conference on 080808…….

“Arbitrary arrest and detention, frivolous investigation and malicious prosecutions shall be a thing of the past.

The use of police powers as well the office of the Attorney General to persecute political opponents will be criminalized so as to ensure a healthy and vibrant democracy where dissent is not only tolerated but nurtured.

In this regard every Malaysian’s fundamental liberties will be treated as sacrosanct and safeguarded by a truly independent judiciary guided by principles of utmost integrity and an adherence to the spirit of the federal constitution. “

If this is to happen, I hope all the folks in permatang pauh, will go out in full force and give anwar the full mandate come Aug 26. Deny the BN any face saving votes, give them the boot and send a crystal clear message to them, that Malaysia is for Malaysians and it does not belong to the umnoputra’s.

What DR M said to the press about anwas’s by electon.

"At the moment I do not see anyone who can give Anwar a run for his money," Mahathir said, according to the New Straits Times newspaper.

Former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad has denied speculation he will run against his arch-foe, opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim, in a by-election expected to return Anwar to parliament.

But Mahatir said he would not challenge Anwar for the seat vacated by Anwar's wife after he was charged with sodomy once again last week.

"No way, I have resigned in 2003 and I have said that I'm not coming back," he said, according to the state Bernama news agency.

To do list if anwar becomes PM:

Mahatir also said he did not want anyone like Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim "who stabbed him in the back" as Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad said yesterday he would rather migrate if the former deputy prime minister succeeds in toppling the Barisan Nasional government.

"If he comes Prime Minister, I will get out of the country. Give everything to him," Utusan Malaysia quoted the former prime minister's reply to a question at the Current Challenges for Malays forum here.

The only country that he can migrate to at this moment is Zimbaguae , I wish him all the best. I can help you pack DR, you need not wait till Sep 16, better get out while the sun still shines. The correct correct correct case will be pursued with might and vigor and all those involved will be looking at some quality jail time. So DR, make haste and delay not your departure. Helping you pack will not be a issue, as I believe at least 10 million people in Malaysia will be more then happy to give you a hand…cheers

THE STUPIDITY OF IT ALL??

They have no case. Yet they went on to charge Anwar anyway. The posting by RPK in Malaysia today is good enough to throw the case out without calling for any defense. Yet the idiots insisted on it anyway, wasting out money to carry on with this mother of all jokes??

The signed statement and the SD by Dr. Osman of hospital pusrawi speaks for itself. Or did the police and the AG office were not aware of this document. It would have been a kick in the but for them, to read such damaging revelations in Malaysia today. And extract of the statement says the following:

“ I introduced proctoscope into the patients anus while a nurse was assisting me by holding a touch.

On my observation the anus was normal, no bleeding, there were no signs of piles and no abscess and no pus, no injury, no tear and no discharge. Anus was clean and dry and looked normal. No abnormalities seen. “

Good luck to the prosecution team. Just like our pulau batu putih , this case is a goner.

And best part is see what the botak from johor and the sleeping Buddha were saying. Always contradicting one and another.

The sleeping Buddha says:

"There's no conspiracy," he said, according to The New Straits Times daily. "How could I insist that he be charged? The police are not so stupid to simply charge if there is no evidence."

The johor botak says:

"The police have no power to go on with a prosecution. The police's interest is to investigate based on the complaint.

After that it is left to the Attorney-General's Chambers to decide whether there is prima facie case to bring the person to court.

One clown says police is not stupid to charge and clown 2 says police cannot charge. See what I mean.

Well anyway before sep 10 (the sodomy hearing), more and more leaks will be appearing in the blogs about this case and hopefully these clowns at the AG office will have enough brains to see that they are going to be bashed, so it is better for them to drop the case while they still have some dignity left ,then open they mouth later and lose it all. (oopss or have they lost it already).

Well anyway, the hero for today was the Sessions Court judge S.M. Komathy Suppiah.

She judged thus:

"It is an elementary principle in the criminal justice process that a man is innocent until proven guilty. I do not think there is any likelihood that Datuk Seri will abscond. I'm going to release him on a personal bond for the sum of RM20,000 without surety."

I am sure this judge will be a judge in the sessions court for the rest of her career? And will not be promoted ever for this decision. But my thought to this learned judge is do not worry, if you do the right thing, you will have a clean conscience and you will be a beacon to you your profession. Anyway when anwar becomes PM, he will not forget you.

As anwar and his wife remarked:

Anwar was pleased with the judge's decision. "She is a decent lady," he said, commenting on the way she had handled the court

Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Ismail too commended the judge for her fairness

So what’s up next, now that this shit is done with. Yes the PP by elections. Will Anwar win this contest. (my God what am I Saying). The punters are now betting on how may votes the BN scapegoat can scrape up.

P44(permatang pauh) has 58,449 voters, roughly 70% malay votes, 25% Chinese. And the rest Indians and others. In march08 elections Dr.Wan Azizah won by majority 13,338. My guess is anwar will better this and win by an all time record ever. Care to wager me at this????......cheers

AND WE CALL THEM LEADERS

I was browsing through the daily’s and blogs and came across some stupid remarks by our so called leaders. ….cheers

UMNO CHIEF OF PENANG

Penang opposition leader Datuk Azhar Ibrahim, who is also the state Umno secretary, assured voters that he would not use the new sodomy allegations against Anwar for the Barisan Nasional election campaign.

He said the state BN would resort to a clean election campaign to ensure a fair victory for the federal ruling coalition.

He was confident of wresting the seat despite the odds of having to contest in Parti Keadilan Rakyat's stronghold.

"I have offered myself for the seat but even if I'm not selected to be the candidate, I'll work hard to ensure BN's victory. Let the leaders decide on candidates; I am a party worker and I will work hard," he added.

Abdul Jalil, however, dare not predict the outcome of the by-election. "I leave it to God."

See the numbskulls we have for leaders. First he says he is confident to win. Then he say’s he leave it to God. This flip flop runs all the way to the top. Can you imagine where our country is headed?

SLEEPING BUDDHA

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi has blamed civil servants for many of the problems in the country which has made the people angry and hate the government.

He said this (anger and hatred for the goverment) can be reduced if civil servants would change their attitude and carry out their responsibilities accordingly so as not to create unnecessary problems for people dealing with the government.

"Don’t let people think we are not responsible, not trustworthy, not caring at all or arrogant. This will surely make them angry and this is not good because all these are our own doing."

"We have laws whose sovereignty we must uphold strongly. Our enforcement must be effective. This is what we should do - our responsibility. No need to ask people from far to come (here) or accuse others for our inability to ensure peace and stability," he said.

He said when the people are angry, all kinds of negative stories will be heard and allegations will be made against the country, especially in the borderless Internet world.

"I am not saying all those who used the Internet and blogs are not good. While there are some who were responsible, there are also those who abused it," he said, adding some people misused the Internet to spread rumours.

I like his comment on upholding law and order. We are the laughing stock in these this region, and he talks about law and order. Our laws cannot even decide which is more important, a murder or screwing backside. And they talk about law and order!

ACA INVESTIGATION:

According to sources, the ACA was also probing how a Singapore-based company, several of whose directors are Israeli nationals, was awarded a slice of the project when it was against the Government's directive to do so.

The Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) is investigating how a little-known IT company with little experience became the local partner in the RM1bil project to upgrade the Royal Malaysian Police's communication systems from analogue-based to digital.

Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said police were aware of the involvement of the Israelis in their communications systems upgrading project.

“We informed the Home Ministry as soon as we learnt about it,” he said, declining to elaborate.

I remember RPK brought this matter up some two months back. Wonder why it took ACA so long to act. And can you imagine the IGP’s comment. How more stupid can one get then this?. And shit brains like this runs our police. God help us.

NEW FUEL PRICE FORMULA

to my readers: apologies for not posting last two days. being extremely busy to put food on the table.....cheers

BN government will introduce new measures for adjusting the fuel prices at our pumps. hopefully there will be no screw ups.

Crude oil costs have fallen around 23 US dollars since Malaysia introduced a 41 per cent fuel price hike in June to ease the burden of spiraling energy subsidies, sparking angry street protests.

"The government would like to announce that effective September 1, 2008 the retail fuel price will be adjusted according to the monthly average, and the subsidy of 0.30 ringgit (per litre) will be maintained," Abdullah said in a statement Friday.

"The retail price of fuel will be fixed on the first day of every month."

An aide to the prime minister said that if global crude oil prices continued to ease, "then pump prices could be adjusted lower in September."

"The pump price of fuel at the beginning of each month, from September onwards, will reflect the average crude oil prices for the month before," he told AFP on condition of anonymity.

THE POLICE ,SODOMY AND THE BOY NAMED SUE

I am old fan of Johnny Cash. I wander how many of my readers know this singer.

And what has our Malaysian police and sodomy and the boy named Sue got to do with anything.

First let me say “The Boy Named SUE” is one of my favorite song sang by Johnny Cash.

What has sodomy got to with this song?. Well nothing really, but let me tell you the story about this song anyway.

But before I go into the story of the song, let me define, what I am getting at. With the new twist of the sodomy case due to the leaked medical report, I was wondering how the clowns at home ministry and PDRM were going to twist this change of events. They were literally caught with their pants down and not only that, there is some hard evidence of some hanky panky, thanks to RPK revelations. So how are the clowns going to spin these story.

I was cracking my head and thinking really hard on how I, (if I am in their shoes) would spin this turn of events to my favor and come out with my flags flying high! Then this particular song hit my brains.

Ok if it was me in this shit hole, this is what I would do to spin the story. Ok readers if you are still reading and not bored yet, thanks, please continue to read. Let me explain the song first and then I will use that concept to spin this sodomy case to my advantage.

This song tells a story of a young boy growing up without a father. When he was born, his father left the family, but before he left he named the new born boy “SUE”. Yes can you imagine a boy with a girls name.

The boy grew up, but growing up was not easy. Because where ever he went, everybody made fun of him, because of his girl’s name. And everyday the boy will get into a fight. Who ever disturbs him will get a fist to his face. Yes he grew up fighting in the streets and in the bars.

And while he grew into a man, he made a promise to himself. He promised himself that one day he his going to hunt his father down and shot him through his head for giving him that name.

So he went hunting for his father with a worn out picture of his dad that he took from his mum. Sure enough in a bar in a far out town he saw the dirty old man who he recognized as his father from the worn out picture that he carried with him.

He approached this father and shouted out to him. “how do you do” my name is sue!

I am going to kill you.

The old man turned around and knew that it was his son and he said:

Son I know you are angry and want to kill me, but before you do , let me tell you why I named you “SUE”.

He said son, I knew I will not be there to support you and help you when you grow up. I gave you that name, so that you will grow up strong, because I knew with that name you will have to fight to live and be strong or be a sissy and weak and die! Look at you now. It is because of that name , you became strong, it made you into a man.

So what can the son do! So in a classic ending , he called him a pa and he called him a son and they hugged and kissed and become father and son.

That is the story of this song.

Now how is this going to help me to spin the sodomy case. Using the same concept this is how I will go about it. (I hope the botak from johor and the PDRM are also reading this, as it can give them some ideas.)

I will call a press conference and tell the press the following:

We the police, knew from the very beginning anwar was innocent. Because we already had the doctors report . We immediately knew that this was a political frame up.

So we formed a special squad to investigated this matter to catch all those involved in this frame up. Since this involves some very big fish, we had to be very careful so that we can investigate and dig deep into this political conspiracy.

So in order to throw the culprits of the track, we used anwar as a scapegoat as a cover to investigate this case. We maintained that we were investigating anwar for sodomy, but in fact what we were actually doing was to closely investigate the conspiracy.

We are speaking the truth. To prove our point, did you not see, until today we have not charged anwar with anything? We have not given him the police report because, the report is about something else and we cannot make it public, due the very reason we are investigating big fish. It it taking time, due to the nature of people involved. That’s is the reason it is taking us this long.

But unfortunately some idiot went and leaked the medical report, and our case is wide open and the public thinks we are damaged goods. All our hard work to nail the culprits has gone down the drain. So how can we catch the conspirators now?. So thanks to RPK we have nothing now and nobody will ever know who was involved. So we hope in future , the public will trust us to do our JOB and not to interfere with our on going investigation. Thank you.

How about this spin guys? Will you buy it?. I will. Sleep on it, and you can use this method to almost spin anything in you life, and come out tops.. good luck…cheers.

HANDPHONE AND CANCER RISK

Report from Time.com

(PITTSBURGH) — The head of a prominent cancer research institute issued an unprecedented warning to his faculty and staff Wednesday: Limit cell phone use because of the possible risk of cancer.

The warning from Dr. Ronald B. Herberman, director of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, is contrary to numerous studies that don't find a link between cancer and cell phone use, and a public lack of worry by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Herberman is basing his alarm on early unpublished data. He says it takes too long to get answers from science and he believes people should take action now — especially when it comes to children.

"Really at the heart of my concern is that we shouldn't wait for a definitive study to come out, but err on the side of being safe rather than sorry later," Herberman said.

PLAY IT SAFE:

Since the handphone went from luxury to necessary, much debate has been going on about this topic. Does the electromagnetic radiation from the handset cause cancer. To be sure, nobody really knows. It just like coffee. Some say its good ,while some say its bad.

We as layman sometimes are at a lost who to believe.

My advice is moderation , yes everything done in moderation may be the answer.

Just like what the doctor says: being safe rather than sorry later is the best bet.

I for one, always use my speaker phone rather then put the phone to my ear. Or if you have a wireless thingy, that will also be good. Why stir the unknown. And if you have very young children try not to allow them to use the phone too often, as their brains are still developing and the radiation from the handphone may actually harm them…CHEERS

UPDATE 9 ANWAR SODOMY

Remember in my previous article, I mentioned a doctor who examined saiful has said that saiful was not sodomised. And he was allegedly detained by the police for 3 days to make him to change the report.

Well now according to RPK Malaysia today, the doctor has disappeared with his family. The brave doctors name is DR Mohamed Osman Abdul Hamid from the Hospital Pusrawi.

And RPK has even published the medical report (see below). All though the hand writing of the doctor is difficult to read but what the report says is there is no evidence of sodomy. Diagnosis: TRO anus means “To Rule Out “ sodomy.

Can you imagine, with this out, why are the police still wanting to arrest Anwar? Until today they have not given him the police report and strangely they have not even charged him for anything. Why are all these clowns chasing their tails when there is no case?. It is a mystery. Can you imagine the manpower and resources they wasted on this case. Its all tax payers money down the drain.

On another note, Anwar may be standing in the kulim-bandar seat parliamentary by elections soon. This very much depends on the court case brought on by UMNO candidate Abdul Aziz. The leaders in DAP and Pas has given anwar the green light and have pledge to support him 100% . this is good news, as this will be anwars ladder to finally return to parliament and then to form the new government on Sep 16. Hopefully no more new scandals erupt to derail his efforts again.

But this bolehland, anything is possible, so l am keeping my fingers and toes crossed…cheers.

I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE!

And guess who is the ultimate scapegoat? Yes they are blaming this on Malaysia. Why? Read on my friend…..cheers

Qantas passengers flying to Melbourne from London, had a terrifying ordeal, while flying over the South China Sea.

While in mid air a 3 meter hole rupture in the belly of their Boeing 747, sent the plane on a nose dive 6,000 meters, before the pilot managed to stabilise the plane.

Passenger Steve Winchester said he thought he was going to die.

"Everyone was just thinking to themselves 'oh I think this is it'," he told reporters. "I heard someone scream. People were just looking at each other in sheer terror."

Winchester said the fuselage breach caused a hole to open up in the cabin floor and sent debris flying through the plane's interior.

"It was everywhere, it was just like it was snowing in the cabin," he said.

Melbourne man David Saunders said he hugged his girlfriend and put his passport in his pocket so his body could be more easily identified as the plane dived towards the sea.

"I heard an enormous explosion, things went quiet, the cabin instantly lost pressure and the plane just started to dive. I thought we were going down into the sea," he said.

The plane managed to make an emergency landing in manila.

Malaysia takes the rep!

Meanwhile, investigators in Manila, including four officers from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, were poring over the stricken aircraft to try to find the cause of the problem.

Sydney's Daily Telegraph reported that engineers discovered a large amount of corrosion in the jumbo during a major refurbishment earlier this year.

A senior Qantas pilot told the Telegraph that Friday's drama may be related to the airline's decision to outsource aircraft maintenance to Malaysia.

"This could well be the direct result of Qantas having stand-in engineers, or from outsourcing maintenance to Malaysia," the unnamed pilot told the newspaper.

"It has been talked about a lot here and we have been told to be extra vigilant when you walk around the aircraft.

"With Qantas outsourcing maintenance to Malaysia, (it) is certainly worrying a lot of us pilots.”

PAS SAYS INUL MORE POTENT THEN VIAGRA

This was a memo that was handed to the mayor’s office by some Pas youth members.

They hope to stop the concert of Inul Daratista . I am not much a fan of Indonesian music but just out of curiosity I had a peep into the youtube (also attached here) to see whats all that fuss about. But read what the memo said first and then watch the video and see if it works for you. Because mine would not even move an inch.

The memo (extract):

Have you seen her in action? Just go to youtube and you will see that her shows are quite obscene. Even I (pas youth) can’t bear watching her. They said her concerts were known to make crowd go wild sexually and that could lead to social problems.

Once they go wild, some will resort to sex by the roadside. So its best that the concert does not go on.

They added that city hall must stop her concert as it did not adhere to rulings by the department of Islamic development Malaysia (jakim).





UPDATE 8 ANWAR SODOMY

Ok this was what I was able to pickup on this case:

1) the police having been battered left and right about the way the handle the arrest on anwar, now wants to release the cctv footage of the treatment of anwar during the detention. What’s the intention in doing this?. Well for one, they may have an edit version showing how anwar was offered tea and cookies and treated with much respect during the investigation. But these clowns fail to get the message do they. We are not interested in that. We want to know why 20 police officers in ski mask fully armed to the teeth was needed to arrest a 60 year old man. Simple as that. Why?

2) then yesterday the botak from Johor had 96 foreign diplomats rushed to a Home Ministry briefing on a two-hour notice?. Even in a nuclear crisis, I doubt you can get such a number to attend. But for sodomy case?, my my what is our country coming too? Can you imagine, all this vvip from so many important countries gathered to listen to a case of somebody screwing somebody’s backside!!!!!. I fell of my chair laughing at this incident. Even the UN could not have done better. My friends we have 192 UN member states upto now. That means almost ½ the world members were briefed on a backside screwing case!! The UN was sodomised if you asked me. Anyway that’s Malaysia for you, where so many other more important and relevant issues could have been solved, but our government wishes to wash they dirty laundry instead. We will be the laughing stock of the world. We might as well change the name of our country to “BACKSIDE”!

3) most interesting of course was the revelation by RPK in his Malaysia today site, of the video recording of the friend of the sodomite. RPK works in a mysterious way. My only worry is this brave whistle blower will not Houdini himself like our PI friend. It takes guts of iron balls to do this. Anyway I managed to read the comments column and found this interesting facts which got me thinking. I will share with the following interesting comments.

a) it was reported that saiful and his video friend went to c4’s house on the 24 of june.

b) Then on the 28 june saiful reports to police that he was sodomised by anwar on the 26 june. Interesting isn’t it. Meeting c4 on 24june and sodomised on 26june, why days two later? And the police report also two days later. It makes me think how stupid these guys must be to want to frame somebody like this. It takes brains to plan a perfect murder , and not many can get away with it. With the idiots we have in umno, police and other government agency, I am not surprised at this revelation.

c) The next revelation maybe a fact or a rumor as I cannot confirm it but I will put it down anyway. It is alleged that saiful is close to his “emak angkat” and her name was given as Mumtaz. And guess what, this Mumtaz is alleged to be a personal assistant to rosmah. How about that. It’s a rumor so use it with a pinch of salt.

d) Next, this is even more interesting rumor! Apparently a mole in Bukit Aman (a police officer or some else), informed anwar on 21june that police are working on a sodomy case involving him. Now if this is rumor is to believed, I would say why would anwar want to screw saiful’s backside on the 26june?. So the conspiracy theory is indeed breaking new grounds, if all this can be proved, or if some hard evidence can be found. So lets wait and see what else will break out in the next couple of days…..stay tuned for update 9…..cheers

ARE WE BEING SCREWED BY PAS?

Some people never learn. In times of trouble, we humans always try to get out of it and internally we will promise ourselves never to get into the same kind of problems ever again. But from my experience, time heals our hurts and we tend to forget. And before you can say craker-jack, we are in the same shit hole as before. Why you ask?

In real life when our situation changes, and as we see ourselves in a much stronger position, we grow greedy and complacent. We have these false sense of security and strength , our mind gets clouded, greed overtakes our judgment and boom we are hijacked and back to zero. Yes greed and the tidak pa (tidakpathy syndrome) attitude can be the greatest motivator.

So Pas is courting its old lover again. In 1974 they married UMNO, had a great honeymoon, and with all things after the honeymoon was over, UMNO could’nt careless about its old wife went looking for fresh virgins and Pas was just another trophy to be displayed in the shelf. So the old wife got jealous and went in for a divorce in 1978. Umno just like a buaya darat, was more then happy to oblige as many a virgins were out there waiting in line to become sleeping partners with them. So after being screwed and used, Pas left with their tails in between their legs.

So what happen that the made the old love to rekindle again? Or is it the younger breed in Pas who pushing this agenda? Why are this young politicians who are still wet behind their ears courting the devil? Are they trying to destroy the enemy by befriending them? Or is the case, where its better the devil you know than the angel you don’t?

What ever the case, don’t we who supported Pas during this election, feel cheated. We worked so hard to weaken the BN. Even though we were unsure of the Pas Ideology we supported them hundred percent. We worked hand in hand to destroy the devil. Is these the thanks we get for our support? Right now I feel like kicking my own ass.

The thing is, dialog is good. But it should be kept open. They should have informed the rakyat what its all about, and not play james bond with these cloak and dagger meetings. Why keep it a secrete. If you have nothing to hide, explain to us. You go behind our backs, hold secrete meetings. And see what happened, UMNO ****ed you again. They kissed and told. You see UMNO went public , why? You dumb ass Pas, you still don’t get it. Simple, they sow seeds of deception. You see what they have done. With these clandistain meeting out in the open, UMNO has managed to shake the foundations of the Pakatan Rakyat.

I hope those idiots who are pushing these agenda, will stop and think again. And please listen to your spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, to end the dialogue, as it would split the party and cause suspicion among allies in the Pakatan Rakyat.

Remember the fate of MCA, MIC, GERAKAN and if still insist in following their foodsteps, then come next elections be prepared to wear their shoes…..cheers

PROSTATE CANCER WONDER PILL

REPORT FROM MAIL ONLINE:

British researchers have made a dramatic breakthrough against a lethal form of prostate cancer.

Trials of a new pill have shown that it can shrink tumors in up to 80 per cent of cases, and end the need for damaging chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Experts hailed the advance as potentially the biggest in the field of prostate cancer for decades, capable of saving many thousands of lives.

Scientists believe the technique could also be effective on other tumors, such as breast and bowel cancers.

The drug, abiraterone, was discovered by researchers at the Royal Marsden Hospital in South-West London.

Their leader, Dr Johann de Bono, said patients there had been able to control the disease with just four pills a day and very few side-effects. Its side-effects can include loss of libido, breathlessness, fatigue, fluid retention and weight gain. Some men may be left impotent, but the effects are far less than with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

There are two types, aggressive and non-aggressive, which are often called 'tiger' and 'pussycat'. Men with pussycat cancer can often lead a healthy life, but the tiger variety - a third of cases - is usually fatal within 18 months.

Abiraterone is now being used in a 1,200-patient international study, including at ten sites across the UK. If it is licensed as expected in 2011, it will have to await approval by the rationing watchdog NICE before it is made freely available.

UPDATE 7 ANWAR SODOMY

Malaysia today and a few blogs report an interesting article yesterday.

(please understand, that these are only rumors and I have yet to see any hard evidence)

1) the chemistry department appointed to analysis the semen sample on the anwar’s sodomy case has been successfully completed. The only problem was they allegedly used the 1998 dna profile of anwar to fabricate the evidence. And those idiots taught they had an air tight case, and it was alleged that some $25,000 dropped from the sky because of this break through and everybody at the lab had a jolly good time partying with the winfall.

After partying and celebrating then some wise joker suddenly pulled a bombshell. He was asking if this evidence was edited by any independent expert from the outside, will it hold up?.

The answer is of cause no. because technology is such that, they can carbon date anything these days and pin point the date of any sample to within +/- 2 years. So everybody was worried, not because they got the wrong sample and the wrong date but, how to return the $25,000 they spent partying. Yes that’s a big headache for them.

Never to be outdone, they came up with plan B. get fresh dna from anwar and the headache will be gone and they need not pass the hat around to collect back the $25,000. so who is going to bell the cat?. Easy. Get the father in law, the son in law, the botak from johor, the son of the DR, the father and uncle of the sodomised guy to shout in the MSM, for anwar to give fresh sample. But the cat refused to be belled, and guess what they are back to square one.

Sometimes as a layman, I am also puzzled by this crazy calls for fresh samples?

DNA does not perish, be it taken today or 100 years ago. It remains the same, the only difference between today’s sample and the one taken 100 years ago will be the age factor of the dna. This in anwar’s case will a plus factor for him.

Another question that’s bugging me non stop is, why the father of the sodomised guy can see the police report, but the accused upto today has yet to see it? Why , why? Is it because the doctor who examined saiful concluded that sodomy never took place?

In RPK no holds barred report yesterday, rpk said the doctor was intimidated by police for three days trying to get the doctor to change the report. But he refused. If this is true, then my hats off to the doctor. Malaysia still has some hope and a few honest people around.

I was scanning the MSM today, but yet to see any reports about these yet. Can all these events be true?. Make up your own mind, you get no help from me…cheers

TODAY IN MALAYSIA

JULY 21 2008 MONDAY 2000HRS

Sodomy affair:

1: Saiful’s family now getting involved in the sodomy case?

Have the unseen hands stoop so low as to get them involved?

This is the question that will be in the minds of everybody now.

I am a father, so if I am in their shoes, I might do the same thing.

But the question is why now, and not very early when news broke out.

It puzzles me to some extend, but I maybe wrong. And why talk of DNA only? And not the other circumstances? Questions and more questions. So which came first the chicken or the egg? If know the answer please share

Altantuya Shariibuu murder trial

2: Karpal singh is on the war path again! Yes he has filed a notice in the high court seeking to clarify the famous SD’s of private investigator P Balasubramaniam.

He has pulled a little known clause to us layman, the section 425 CPC.

What that means is "any court may at any stage of any inquiry, trial or other proceedings, summon any person as a witness or recall and re-examine any person already examined if his evidence appears to be essential.

That means he is seeking to call to stand the following VVIPs:

Najib, DSP Musa Safri and lawyer Dhiren Rene Norendra.

Wow, I hope the lion of jelutong is not going to do another Houdini, just like our famous PI .

Update on Anwar:

3: After giving his much needed statement to the ACA this morning on the IGP and the AG, anwar gave the thumbs up, when questioned by reporters about the lawsuit the IGP filed against anwar for defamation, today in the high court. The IGP , to be fair did give anwar a deadline to retract his allegations and to pay a large amount of $RM. But if your thinking and my thinking runs in sycn, then I would say, shaft it and bring it on. To court we go and I will wash your dirty linen in the public for all to see. Every dog has his day and the day of reckoning is at hand. Wait, wait , wait a minute, the last I heard the courts are full till 2015. I hope I will still be kicking to see the daylight of this case. And to make matters more interesting, listen to what the AG says:

Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail is said to be considering a similar suit.

Hmmm, seems to be considering? Why the hesitation?. You have the BN machinery behind you, don’t worry, AG! Bring it to court. Anwar is 60 now, by the time these case sees any light, he will be to old to remember anything. Go for it……

The ACA has this to say about this case, and I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed hoping that it be true:

ACA deputy director-general Datuk Abu Kassim Mohamed said the agency is investigating Anwar's complaints against the IGP and A-G without referring to the A-G's Chambers.

SINGAPORE USED AS A PUNCHING BAG

I read this interesting article in asiaone online paper. The article talks about why Singapore’s success is seen as a threat to western ideology and why its always the scapegoat when the so called liberal thinking NGO’s take a swipe at this tiny red pimple that refuses to bust. I only extracted a small potion of the article, but if want to read the complete article go to asiaone online news…cheers

In an article published last week in The Guardian, one of Britain's most influential dailies, Singapore was yet again disparaged as a modern, but authoritarian state. Writer John Kampfner - a distinguished local columnist and the author was merely using the Republic as part of a broader attack on the policies of the British government. His contention was that ordinary Singaporeans allegedly gave up their personal freedoms in return for prosperity.

But Mr Kampfner's article is part of an emerging pattern: Reports from a variety of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and international media sources periodically portray Singapore as a wealthy yet less than attractive state.

What accounts for this outpouring of venom about a country which, when all is said and done, remains just a tiny speck on the world map? The answer is rather simple. Singapore is merely a convenient scapegoat for a deeper crisis of confidence which now grips the West.

To a large extent, success is Singapore's biggest problem. It is hardly the only Asian country to undergo a remarkable economic and political transformation. But it is the only Asian nation whose academics and politicians are completely plugged into the current Western intellectual circuit. So, Singapore's international visibility far outstrips the country's actual size.

Western criticism of Singapore usually falls into two categories. One school of thought argues that the Republic still has plenty of problems: look behind the glitzy facade and you'd find many warts.

Another school of thought accepts that Singapore is successful, but claims that its example is irrelevant: It is just a small, beautifully-decorated fish bowl which cannot be replicated in a big ocean.

But both critical trends converge on one point: Singapore is a laboratory experiment which should have failed but which, for some apparently devious reason, has instead succeeded.

Western policymakers are growing desperate over increasing evidence that, far from being unique, Singapore-like development theories are actually working in an increasing number of states.

Yet Singaporeans can also derive satisfaction from the current climate. First, they are the subject of international curiosity because theirs is a system which works.

And they are being scrutinised precisely because people suspect that the Singapore model does have wider applications.

So, this is one instance when criticism may be the sincerest mode of flattery. Regardless of how much it stings.

THE FORGOTTEN ISSUES

Dear readers:

The last two weeks in Malaysia has been a roller coaster ride for everyone. Whether it was pre planned or just a coincidence is beyond us. But the crux of the matter is, these events has completely pulled the wool over our eyes on the real issues that we the rakyat are wanting to change.

The mainstream media and almost all internet media were side tracked by the weeks events to highlight issues which are to me like a storm in a tea cup. Sex, lies, murders are the issues that finds headlines today.

But readers please do not be sidetracked and please keep the following issues in your mind and heart so that we know exactly what changes that is needed in our beloved country. There maybe more, please feel free to add to the list in the comment.

THE FORGOTTEN ISSUES:

1: the recession and depression that will be hitting us very soon….. be prepared and cut unnecessary spending and save for the bad days a head.

2: the inflation and fuel hike

3: the urban poverty….. your RM 3,000 salary gets you nowhere these days!

4: systematic spread of racist propaganda….. teach your loved ones everyone are equal in the eyes of GOD

5: the failing standards in our universities and schools

6: the invisible siphoning and rape of our country’s wealth

8: corrupt politicians and half past six ministers who run our country

9: the police and judiciary that has lost credibility

10: a prime minister who is seen as a lame duck

These are just the more important issues in my opinion , but its not complete. But if somehow if we can lobby as one rakyat to put pressure on the ruling elite to make changes, then I believe our country can truly be ASIA’S NUMBER ONE…cheers

UPDATE 6 ANWAR AND SODOMY CASE

KUALA LUMPUR - A LAWYER says Malaysia's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim has provided an alibi to the police to prove he did not sodomise a male aide.

Counsel Sivarasa Rasiah also says Anwar will not give a DNA sample for fear it could be manipulated to frame him.

Police arrested Mr Anwar on Wednesday and interrogated him for many hours about the sodomy allegations made by a young male aide. He was released Thursday on bail, but remains a suspect in the case.

Mr Sivarasa told a Friday news conference that Mr Anwar gave the police 'full details' of his alibi, but that he drew the line at giving a DNA swab.

Mr Sivarasa says DNA evidence was fabricated against Mr Anwar when he was accused of sodomy 10 years ago, and he does not trust the police not to do it again. -- AP

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED IN 1998 CASE…..EXTRACT FOR RPK

In 1998-1999 trials, Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim experienced the phenomenon of fabrication of DNA evidence. We had SAC Rodwan illegally removing DNA samples from forensic custody. In cross-examination of the prosecution’s witnesses it was exposed that DNA taken from blood samples was planted on the infamous mattress. When confronted with this fact the prosecution amended its charge and persuaded the judge, Augustine Paul, to expunge the entire DNA evidence from the record, preventing Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s lawyers from responding.

The persons who were implicated in the fabrication of evidence during Dato Seri Anwar’s 1998-1999 trials, namely Gani Patail, Musa Hassan, and Rodwan are the same players who are involved in the current case. Today they are in much more powerful positions within the law enforcement apparatus.

Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim has even more reason to believe of the probability that DNA evidence will be fabricated once again. This is reasonable because the complainant remains in police custody since 28 June 2008 and the police are also in possession of Anwar Ibrahim’s DNA from the earlier case.

if you want to know more about DNA and how it is used to solve crime, pls read my post "what is DNA fingerprint....cheers

WHAT IS DNA FINGERPRINT?

With so much talk of DNA, blowing in our bolehland, I was wondering whether most us (layman) know what exactly it is, or only a vague idea. Here I did some googling and came up with some explanation. Please read it if it is of interest to you (10 mins read)…..cheers.

What exactly is a DNA fingerprint? Well, it certainly isn't an inky impression of a DNA strand. Compared to unimaginably small DNA, a fingerprint is HUGE. So what is it that we're looking at, and how is one of these fingerprints made?

DNA. It's what makes you unique. It's the stuff that tells each and every one of your body's 10 trillion cells what it's supposed to be and what it's supposed to do. And although your DNA is different from that of every other person in the world -- unless you have an identical twin -- it's the same in every cell that makes up your body.

That DNA is unique from person to person but the same from cell to cell in one person can be a handy thing, especially when it comes to DNA fingerprinting. DNA fingerprints can be used for anything from determining a biological mother or father to identifying the suspect of a crime.

The best way to understand how DNA is used to solve a crime, is to play detective. So if your game, lets start.

The crime:

On the evening of November 1, at approximately 8:15 p.m., Raja Lolipo entered his bedroom, walked over to his desk, and sat down at his computer. While reaching for the computer's switch he noticed, out of the corner of his eye, that one of the items on a typically well-organized shelf was out of place.

Raja Lolipo shot across the room for a closer examination. Sure enough, the object in question had indeed been disturbed.

The object had been sealed in an air-tight package. The package was now ripped open. The object was still inside, but it was no longer in its original condition. In Raja Lolipo 's eyes, it was now worthless.

Raja Lolipo pulled out what had been his most-valued possession -- his holographic lollipop. The confectionery treat was now a sticky mess. Someone had obviously indulged him- or herself in its sugary molecules. The lollipop's holographic image had been licked away.

The suspects:

The prime suspects in this case are Raja Lolipo 's seven sisters: Candy, Cookie, Sugar, Lolly, Honey, Brandee, and Carmela. Each one of these sisters is a notorious candy lover and is easily capable of committing this crime of confection.

The suspects have been detained. The saliva of the seven suspects are taken for a DNA sampling.

What we as the investigating detective need to do:

Fortunately for this case, a lollipop cannot be licked without leaving behind a bit of saliva.

Your task, as the investigator is to a appoint a Lab who is capable to finger print DNA, to create a DNA fingerprint from the saliva left on the lollipop. You must then use the fingerprint to single out the culprit of this crime.

Steps required to get the photo graphic image of the DNA.

1: the DNA samples from the suspects are first combined with an restriction enzyme agent.

2: then a special tray with electrodes is then taken and “agarose” gel is poured into the tray.

3: then the mixture in step 1 is poured into the special tray and the electrodes are activated for electrophoresis to begin.

4: after a certain amount time has lapsed, a special nylon membrane is placed on the mixture in the special tray.

5: another mixture called “probes” is added to the nylon membrane. I believe this agent stains the DNA seeping out of the special nylon membrane.

6: the next step is to place an X-ray film on the top of the nylon membrane.

7: the final step is to develop the X-ray film with the aid of a developer instrument. The DNA image is exposed on this film, and there you go, you have the images of the DNA strand on the X-ray film….just like you bone X-rays.

Now to catch the culprit:

Once all the seven suspects DNA has been photographed (x-ray image), the its just the simple task to compare the DNA on the lollipop to the DNA of the seven suspects.

Below I have the images of the DNA, see if you match and discover the culprit.






















my bet is "Honey" was the culprit, what was you expert opinion?....cheers

thanks to nova online for this explanation.
