22. CRIMINALS at work, meaningless to save

http://cj.my/post/89077/mind-your-money-seminar-a-success-in-kk/

All the CRIMINALS in Governments - Federal & State had been stealing all public funds
even meant for pensions of the hard working people.  These criminals would grab anything in their paths...

The classic example the CRIMINALS in Government had been stealing Paul to pay John like the EPF once cash rich is now EMPTY POOR FUND after decades of massive cheating.  While EPF only got less than 5% in dividends for some years, other GLC funds were getting  much more in dividend hence divide and rule.

Even EPF at 8% for some years were not enough when the banks were paying more than that.

This is just one EPF robbed dry and there are many other robberies going on especially the day light robberies of Petronas in so many ways.

MASSIVE robberies by the Ali Baba and more than 40 thieves are still going on..towards bankruptcy in Malaysia.

Saving for the old age is meaningless when prices of basic items had risen to so much more and drinks in the coffee shops had increased by many folds... 

Deliberate shortage of essential items has cause prices to rise and unmatched by any savings of the poor folks who live on for decades after retirement at 55, 58, 60 etc.

>That was why, in 2007, Mahathir mounted vicious attacks against Pak

million instead of RM600 million.

Sabah CM denies claims linking him to Task Force Project IC via proxy

by Murib Morpi. Posted on July 24, 2013, Wednesday


KOTA KINABALU: The Royal Commission of Inquiry on illegal immigrants in Sabah yesterday heard a deposition that Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman has denied all allegations linking him to Project IC made by a witness in its proceeding last week.
Former State Attorney General, Datuk Anthony Roderick Fernandez, appeared before the commission and informed the five-men panel that he was representing Musa to file an application for notes of proceeding pertaining to the allegation.
“A witness, Dr Chong Eng Leong, has made some serious allegations against the Chief Minister. I would like for it to be noted that my client denies every allegation on his involvement in Project IC,” he said.
Fernandez also told the Commission that Musa will decide on his next course of action after reading the extract and may elect to appear before the panel to give his own testimony.
Dr Chong, a former senator and state assemblyman, testified last week that Musa had led a Sabah Umno task force to find foreigners to be registered as party members to vote for Barisan Nasional. He claimed to have received this information from one Jabar Khan, who was the secretary of the said task force formed in 1991.
Commission chairman Tan Sri Steve Shim, granted Fernandez’s application, saying the extract on the notes of proceeding will be given to be examined by the Chief Minister.
Meanwhile, conducting officer, Manoj Kurup, informed the panel that Dr Chong has made a request following his testimony last week to have a bundle of supporting documents submitted as evidence and examined by the Commission.
“We have looked through the bundles and decided that two of them, which contain a collection of newspaper cuttings and exhibits from the Likas election petition, were relevant and shall be marked as exhibits for this Inquiry,” said Manoj.
The Commission resumed its proceedings with three more witnesses called to testify yesterday, bringing the total to 192 so far.
At least six more witnesses are expected to be called in the next two days, including Melalap assemblyman cum Rural Development Minister Datuk Radin Malleh

Musa Aman denies any role in 'Project IC'


SABAH RCI Sabah Chief Minister Musa Aman has informed the royal commission of inquiry (RCI) into illegal immigrants in Sabah that he had no involvement in the so-called Project IC, as claimed by a witness last week.
"Last Thursday, Dr Chong Eng Leong made serious allegations linking my client to Project IC.
"I have been instructed to inform that he (Musa, right ) denies any involvement in the alleged Project IC," the chief minister's lawyer Roderic Fernandez told the RCI sitting in Kota Kinabalu today.
Fernandez, who is a former Sabah attroney-general, said Musa had also instructed him to hold a watching brief and to request for the notes of proceedings pertaining to the allegation by Chong.
Fernandez said Musa would decide his next course of action after he is able to peruse the notes of proceedings.
The application was granted by RCI chairperson Steve Shim, who instructed the RCI secretariat to extract portions pertaining to the allegation for Musa to make a decision on what he wanted to do.
'Musa chaired Umno task force to register foreigners'
Last week, Chong, a former Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) politician who authored a book on Project IC, testified that Musa chaired a task force back in 1991 that was designed to register foreigners as Umno members after giving them Malaysian citizenship.
"When Umno first entered Sabah, this task force was formed, and the chief was none other but Musa Aman himself," Chong had told the RCI.
Speaking to reporters later, DAP assemblyperson for Likas Junz Wong, who was in the public gallery, said it would be in the people's interest for Musa to testify before the RCI to clear his name.
"The RCI should decide (whether to call Musa as a witness or not but) he has a social and political responsibility to come clean," Wong said outside the Kota Kinabalu High Court complex, where the RCI is sitting.
Meanwhile, in his testimony today, 192nd witness Ismail Mohd Yakub from the Tawau Municipal Council said that 40 percent of Tawau residents are non-citizens.
Basing this on the council's 2010 census, he said the immigrants have good relations with Sabahans, as most of them have adopted the local lifestyle.
"That's why it's not a big problem that 41 percent of people in Tawau are non-citizens.
"Plus, the local culture is highly tolerant," he said.

18. The CRIMINALS in Government

Musa Aman involved in 'Project IC', RCI told 

 

SABAH RCI Current Sabah Chief Minister Musa Aman also allegedly had a hand in ‘Project IC’, the royal commission of inquiry (RCI) was told today.
Dr Chong Eng Leong, a former Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) politician who authored a book about Project IC, claimed that Musa chaired a task force back in 1991 which was designed to register foreigners as Umno members after giving them citizenship.
When Umno first entered Sabah, this task force was formed, and the chief was none other but Musa Aman himself,” Chong said during proceedings today.
Similar to a claim made by Sabah opposition politician Jeffrey Kitingan yesterday at the RCI, Chong also said that the project IC exercise was done in order to increase the Muslim population in Sabah.
“This has nothing to do with race or religion. This is pure politics,” he said, noting that a sharp increase in the Malay population is Sabah allowed Umno to take foothold of Sabah.
According to Chong, between 1970 and 2000, in a span of 30 years, the Malay population in Sabah saw a sharp growth rate of 1,552 percent.
This is almost 10 times the growth rate of the Kadasan, Dusun, and Murut native communities, and also significantly higher than the 344 percent growth posted by the Bajau community.
Chong said that this growth cannot be attributed to the rural Sabahans registering themselves late due to a previous lack of access to government offices.
“If that was true, why is there no sharp increase in the Kadazan, Dusun and Murut communities?” he asked.
“Why is the Malay population growing the highest?” he said.
He said that Umno had already “achieved its target” in boosting the population, because the state now has 33 Muslim-majority state seats, which is more than the number of Chinese majority and non-Muslim bumiputra majority seats.

the Criminals in Government make this happen

See how the Criminals in Government act again the local..Joshua
 
Private Sabah colleges cry foul
Published on: Thursday, July 11, 2013
 
http://www.dailyexpress.com.my/news.cfm?NewsID=86052


Kota Kinabalu: Local private higher learning institutions (IPTS) in Sabah are in a dilemma over issues which are hampering efforts to promote Sabah as a hub of education excellence. This includes the uncontrolled opening of branches by colleges from the peninsula in the State and huge difference between the study fees charged by the local IPTS and public higher learning institutions (IPTAs).
Sabah Private Higher Learning Institution Association President Datuk Wong Khen Thau said although the Government recently stopped the issuance of licences for new IPTS, at the same time there is no policy to control other colleges from setting up branches in the State.
"There are lot of colleges branching out to the State from the peninsula.
This is an issue that we seriously need to look at, as we need to give more chances to the existing local IPTS to grow," he said.
He said the Government should have a proper control on this, like only giving consideration to those universities or colleges in the peninsula to expand or open up branches in Sabah "if they offer courses that we do not have presently in the State".
"Unless the local IPTS have no more capacity to accommodate the students in Sabah then it is justifiable É at the moment we still have the capacity to accommodate," he said, hoping the Government would look at this seriously.
Wong said this when met after he led a delegation from the association in paying a courtesy call on State Resource Development and Information Technology Minister, Datuk Siringan Gubat, at his office in Wisma Bandaraya, Wednesday.
Wong also said the IPTS in Sabah would not be able to help the Government attract foreign students because the present study fee structure imposed by certain IPTAs in Sabah is way too low than what they are able to offer.
This is akin to the IPTAs subsidising the foreign students to come and study in Sabah, he said.
He cited an IPTA in the State which is charging a foreign student as low as RM3,500 per year, which is about three to four times lower than what the IPTS are charging local students.
"Both the IPTAs and IPTS are tasked with promoting Malaysia to the world, but we do not receive very much assistance from the government in this aspect," he said.
"In fact the study fees charged by the IPTS in Sabah are the cheapest in the whole countryÉso we can say that Malaysia through the IPTAs are indirectly subsidising foreign students to come to study in this country.
"Is such a policy fair to the IPTS and local students?
Why can't the government then look at, instead of subsidising the foreign students, helping the local students by subsidising them to study at the IPTS here, which would be more sensible?" he said.
He said in any country in the world their universities would always charge foreign students the most. "But only in Malaysia, that is in Sabah, we charge the foreign students less.
I am talking about the IPTAs, as the IPTS are always charging the foreign students more and only the IPTAs are doing different things," he said.
"I am not saying all the IPTAs are doing the same but that they have autonomy to do what they like.
"So this is one of the great challenges that we are facing.
We have foreign students coming in and telling us why should they go and study at our private higher learning institutions when they can go to the public institutions where the study fees are much, much cheaper.
"We are asked to fight the battle, to recruit more foreign students, but at the same time we are facing this scenario. So we are actually slapping our own face. This is the dilemma most of the IPTS in Sabah are having," he said.
Commenting on the call by State Minister with Special Functions Datuk Teo Chee Kang for renowned foreign varsities to set up campuses in Sabah, Wong said the association has no objection if it means top rated universities which can offer something none of the local universities or colleges have to offer.
"We do not object to this proposal because we already have a number of universities and colleges which support the needs, except maybe for very specialised education courses which we still do not have here, which would be okay if we can introduce it here," he said.
"But the market in Sabah is not that big for such specialised courses like medical doctor and engineering. Although we are in need of doctors, engineers and so on, we do not have that kind of supply of local studentsÉmeaning if we are to offer such specialised courses at this point of time there would not be many takers," he added.
"And it is probably cheaper still to go and study such kind of specialised courses overseas or in the peninsula itself."
"And if you bring in universities which are not even properly rated in their own country it will only defeat the purpose.
"We are talking about Malaysia wanting to become a centre of education excellence, the Government must make sure that the local universities and colleges are able to grow to that level," he said.
"If not the question is where are we? Are we promoting Malaysia as a centre of education excellence while at the same time we do not trust or practise double standards on our local higher learning institutions?"
"So lets look at things carefully. We need to do a lot of studies before bringing in foreign universities.
If we can bring in top rated universities, then it would be more beneficial because it would bring along many foreign students to come into the State for further study," said Wong.
But you are just talking about ordinary universities, then you should give priority to the local universities to grow.
" Malaysia has also been talking about turning education into another source of revenue for the country, through the entry of many foreign students, and we feel that all the private higher learning institutions are able to cater to all the needs in SabahÉand since the IPTS and IPTA in the country are now at the same level in terms of education quality and so on, we hope there is still a lot capacity for all us to support whatever is required in Sabah," he said.
During the meeting with Siringan, Wong also expressed the association's hope to work closely with his Ministry, especially in meeting the Government's needs in terms of manpower training.

Six win suit against police and govt over illegal arrest and detention

KUALA LUMPUR:  Five lawyers and an activist won a civil dispute against the police and Government over their arrest and detention during a walk to mark the World Human Rights Day in December 2007.
High Court judge Justice John Louis O'Hara held that the arrests of R. Sivarasa, N. Surendran, Latheefa Beebi Koya, Eric Paulsen, Amer Hamzah Arshad and activist Johny Andu @ Abu Bakar Adnan and their subsequent detention by the police were unlawful.
"I had the opportunity to view video recording and observed the photographic evidence which provided a pictorial enactment of what had actually transpired during the walk," he said.
Justice O'Hara said that Commanding Officer Superintendent Che Hamzah Che Ismail, who was then Dang Wangi's Acting OCPD, had given conflicting, confusing and contradictory instructions to the plaintiffs, who were among the participants, when he asked them to disperse within 10 minutes.
Justice O'Hara said "it was apparent that Supt Che Hamzah was not decisive" of his disperse order.
He said the order gave the impression that the participants had 10 minutes to disperse, but they were arrested before they could do so.
On Dec 8, 2010, The plaintiffs filed the lawsuit against Supt Che Hamzah, Inspector-General of Police, Home Ministry and the Government over claims for wrongful arrest, wrongful detention and malicious prosecution.
Justice O'Hara ruled that the six were also denied of their right to legal representation.
In ruling in favour of the six plaintiffs, Justice O'Hara said they had named the relevant parties in the claim.
On Dec 10, 2007, the six were charged for taking part in an unlawful assembly and failing to adhere to police orders to disperse, allegedly committed a day before (Dec 9, 2007) in front of a shopping complex in Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman.
On April 16, 2009, they were freed by a Sessions Court without entering a defence.
However, Justice O'Hara dismissed the claim on malicious prosecution saying that it was the prerogative of the Attorney-General under the Federal Constitution to exercise his discretionary powers to institute proceedings.
"I did not find it (the prosecution) was initiated in bad faith. He (A-G) is just doing his job," he said in his judgment.
He awarded RM60,000 in damages for all plaintiffs and RM5,454 in special damages for Paulsen for his flight tickets from South Africa to appear for the 15-day trial.
He also ordered the defendants to pay 5% in interest for general and special damages from the date of judgment to its full settlement.
He directed the defendants to pay RM60,000 in costs.
He made the order after hearing evidence from 19 witnesses during the trial.
Speaking to reporters here, lead counsel Edmund Bon said it was a great victory for democracy and human rights, saying that the suit was filed to uphold freedom of assembly and not for money.
Surendran and Johny said it was a historic end and the ruling confirmed the right to assemble peacefully.
Paulsen said that the ruling affirmed that "you cannot abuse power as you like" for persons entrusted with power to carry out duties.
In their lawsuit, they sought for a declaration that their rights under the Federal Constitution were violated.
In their statement of claim, the six claimed they participated in a peaceful rally and marched in conjunction with World Human Rights Day, which is celebrated worldwide on Dec 10 every year.
The defendants were represented by Senior Federal Counsel Nadia Hanim Tajudin and SFC Lailawati Ali.
