Shame you did!
We thought Syed Hamid was bad enough, until we have Hishamuddin. He even spoke for the police who did the unprecedented – forcibly carrying out the Speaker of Perak State Assembly!
A few years ago, before Syed Hamid’s time, I was witness to something similar to what happened in Klang last night, but in Bemban, Perak. YB Lim Kit Siang was scheduled to speak at a dinner, and the area was surrounded by heavily armed police (some with what looked like machine guns). Senseless waste of scarce resources when the police kept harping on the shortage of personnel.
I happened to know the ASP in charge then, and he explained that the permit was meant for a closed hall (this hall happened to be without walls! And there was no permission to use loud speakers because it would upset the people living nearby!) Just imagine, there were no complaints, yet the police was so pro-active and considerate towards the villagers. Mind you, this happened to be, and still is, a DAP stronghold, so it was really unwelcome protection by the police.
Yesterday afternoon, along the N-S Expressway, a convoy of PDRM coaches and a few trucks were seen travelling south. With the following news at night, I wondered if the same was heading towards Klang! :
CHARLES HECTOR: Maybe the States have to claim their rights - maybe time for State Police, that will come under the State Government directly..
What is happening to Malaysia under its new Prime Minister Najib?
Freedom of expression, freedom of assembly and freedom of association is being disrespected...
Even the legal DAP dinners hosted by the duly elected DAP MP for the area are being 'interfered' with..
Water cannons...PA Systems confiscated....speakers for the night not allowed to talk...
Police permits withdrawn at the eleventh hour...by the police...
Shocking...embarrassing...
Selangor Pakatan Rakyat government sponsored events also have had to have police approvals..
Who is in charge of the state - the democratically elected Pakatan Rakyat government or the police?
Maybe, time for Selangor to have its own state police - who will be under the State Government...
The interference of the Federal Government into matters within the State must stop...
If this is happening to DAP, which is part of the State government, in an area with a DAP Mp - I wonder whether other opposition parties like PSM and Parti Rakyat Malaysia(PRM) will even have a chance to host 'ceramahs' and fund raising events....
What about Radio Stations...Television Stations - when will the opposition parties or the non-BN State Governments have the ability to get permits and run their own stations...
Is Malaysia really a democracy? Or has it now become a 'dictatorship'? or a Police State?
Well, Hishamuddin is a third generation of one of the ruling dynasties (though his grandfather had never been in power) while Najib is a second generation. Is it fated that they will make decisions to fulfil the prophesy that power, like wealth cannot last through three generations?
Government fed by the people
Career options
I suggest government... because nobody has ever been caught.
Corruption so prevalent it affects English language?
Corruption is so prevalent it affects English language?
When there's too much dirt...
We need better tools... to cover up mega corruptions.
Prevent bullying now!
