How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

CCM acts with fear or favour

when dealing with Umno-related companies. Same rules and regulations, but enforced differently. While directors of ordinary companies registered with CCM (Companies Commission of Malaysia) have to ensure their accounts are audited and filed within stipulated period, some privileged ones could go on without worry over penalties and possible de-registration.

DAP MP for PJ Utara, Tony Pua highlighted the following companies:

"1. YGP Holdings Sdn Bhd has failed to file their audited accounts since 31 December 2006.  The company directors are UMNO Youth Chief and Member of Parliament for Rembau, Khairy Jamaluddin, Member of Parliament for Kota Belud, Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan.  The company shareholders include Minister of Defence, Dato’ Seri Zahid Hamidi.

2. National Aerospace and Defence Industries Sdn Bhd has failed to file their audited accounts since 31 December 2007, and yet the Government of Malaysia has last month granted their subsidiary a license to operate an airline in Malaysia launched by none other than the Prime Minister, Dato’ Seri Najib Razak himself.  The Chairman of the company is Tan Sri Gen (Rtd) Mohd Hashim bin Mohd Ali.

3. National Feedlot Corporation Sdn Bhd has failed to file their audited accounts since 31 December 2009, while Real Food Company Sdn Bhd and National Meat & Livestock Company Sdn Bhd have failed to file their since 30 June 2007.  The Directors of the company are family members of UMNO Wanita Chief and former Minister of Women, Family and Community Development – husband, Datuk Dr Mohd Salleh bin Ismail, as well as children, Wan Shahinur Izmir Mohd Salleh, Wan Shahinur Izran Mohd Salleh and Wan Izzana Fatimah Zabedah Mohd Salleh.

The directors of all these companies have hence run afoul of the Companies Act 1965 by failing to hold the company’s Annual General Meetings, file its Annual Returns to the Registrar of Companies together with their Audited Financial Report...."

While trying to do the bidding of their political masters in connection with hassling Suaram, CCM's inability to find fault with it seems to have its enforcement power usurped by Registrar of Societies! Just imagine a company registered with CCM being called up by ROS!
