Bandar Makhota Cheras violence and police connivance – public inquiry warranted

The use of thugs to assault residents of Bandar Makhota Cheras protesting against the barricade put up by the toll concessionaire, Grand Saga and the connivance of the police not only in its “hands-off” policy during the rampage by the thugs, but in going on a rampage of its own when some 20 police personnel armed assaulted an innocent bystander, Chang Jiun Haur, must be condemned in the strongest possible terms.

An independent public inquiry into the spate of physical violence against the protesting public by thugs and police personnel is fully warranted.

DAP MP for Serdang, Teo Nie Ching will be raising the issue in Parliament tomorrow.

  1. wat on earth are these federal reserved units doing?they should confront the thugs in that manner,not the innocent youngman!
    i cant believe it,if he has done something wrong,just handcuff him,isnt it the way?

  3. Against all odds, the road block was again removed by the residents and the road was re-opened one hour ago. Self-help is the best solution…

    Now that BMC road closure has become a national frontpage issue, the state gomen (30% share holder of Grand Saga) better make sure that the road will not be closed again for the sake of its own image.

  4. The Serdang MP must ensure (even through horse trading or whatever means) that the issue will be debated, or else please refund my RM50 donated to her PRU 12 campaign. It’s difficult to make even RM50 these days.

  5. We are regressing into ‘4th world country ‘ , the police, FRU no better than those in Sudan, Zimbabwe, Somalia, Sierra Leone, etc.
    sad for the Chang JH !! can he take legal action against police ???

  6. Do we still have governments in Malaysia – whatever, federal, state or local????? This is the national entropy! Politicians plays politics, the rakyat suffer. No winder most despise politicians.

  8. The culprit that recruited thugs to use violence against the residents must be prosecuted. A group of Malays (thugs) assaulting a group of Chinese (residents) could easily flare into a racial riot. Had not the authorities learned a lesson from the Kampung Medan incident?

    I believe a “dirty hand” was playing a political game in the Bandar Mahkota Cheras violence.

  10. Weeks past, blood shed and now suddenly MB Khalid realises that his gomen owns 30% share in Grand Saga and therefore he can actually press the other shareholders to act more nicely. He’s sleeping or what before today?

  12. TC33,
    Maybe cause MB Khalid doesn’t read LKS’s blog?

    One wonders what is PR’s plans on the BMC issue, or do they even have a plan to begin with. Debating in parliament and organizing protests may be fun and all but i am not sure if thats gonna get you results. You are not gonna sway the federal government and ministries with charismatic arguments.

    Was there no comittee set up to investigate the issue and list down all the possible solutions and scenarios? Consider all legal implications and list down all the possibilities in order to overcome any liability? Did no one sit down to plan a solution?

    Or was the DAP people to busy blaming the government and organising protests? Look, accept the fact that the fed is not gonna give in to your demands no matter how well you argue. Or else they will lose face and credibility. You can continue to do so to put up a show, but you better damn well be doing something more besides that.

    Maybe you should stop attacking the problem head on by just protesting and blaming the government. Maybe you guys need to think outside the box.

  13. If I broke the law, I’m innocent until proven guilty. FRU can bash up a guy without any proof of wrongdoing?!? Why is no investigation into what happened & punishment dole out?

    Please sue the government.

  14. Read somewhere that Ronnie Liu mentioned that Selangor government will be getting Kajang Municipal Council to dismantle the barrier tomorrow.
    I wonder if that is going to happen, cuz it seems like the state government does not have any teeth. I’m waiting to be proven wrong.

  15. Zainal Abidin Ali, the executive director of Grand Saga, is non-other than the former police chief of Dang Wangi!

    The most fearful criminals in Malaysia is not the organized crooks and gangsters but the Police itself.

    Malaysia has become a Police State long ago.

    Polis Diraja Malaysia= Gestapo of Adolf Hitler

    And both scratches their masters backs and vice-versa.

  16. This bloody affair should be stopped immediately, starting with Grand Saga. Is it warranted in Malaysia to use thugs to protect one’s corporate interest against citizens who are already hard-pressed to make a decent living?
    This sordid going-on looked very one-sided against the Rakyat of Bandar Makhota Cheras who have every right to protest against dirty corporate interest and heavy-handed tactics.
    What has happened also showed what bad reputation our ‘Royal’ Polis intends to carry on.
    The chain of event last night makes us question in whose interests the authority has in mind.
    Rakyat’s opinion is:
    1) The Polis is as Samseng as those thugs who went on rampage against the residents. Just see for yourself how Polis reacted against innocent bystanders like back lane hounds.
    2) Grand Saga has the authority’s ‘blessing to punish’ Rakyat of Bandar Makhota Cheras.
    3) The delayed action (on purpose) to remove the unwarranted barriers set up by Grand Saga who will never be prosecuted in court. Just count how many times were barriers intentionally set up since day one of troubles?
    4) This is a politically motivated scheme to cause hardship by any means. PR beware!
    Pak Lah, are your ears listening to the cries of Bandar Makhota Cheras?

  17. Recently, through press/TV, happy to hear that our minister claimed we(as voter) play an important role on election, just like VIP -&- THEY will sincere listen and resolve our issues. but…
    @Bdr Mahkota Cheras, what we’d seen was how many BMC ppl injured -& heart broken! Would like to ask, where are you/THEY -& ~how to contribute and fight4 our rights and benefits? WHAT A GOOD HEART BREAKER!?

    Update by new MB-Selangor, state government owned 20% of Gr.Sg.

    Doubts on why (TRUST U, VOTE U) ex-yb/MP ~if you/THEY always claimed the best and good servicing BMC ppl, shouldn’t you `take.k our rights & benefits, action like our hon.PR YB/MP`?

    Confuse me, WHO ARE THEY(named as GANGSTER or pretend they are!)? WHAT IS THEIR MOTIVE, WITH ANY ORDER or AUTHORITY? ~so wild-fears, show up, warn & attack BMC ppl!:

    ~assumption, We’re THEY;
    :without any benefit, will you dare challenge Malaysia laws, or else, as volunteer?

    ^IF THEY AREN’T GANGSTER, THEN WHO ARE THEY?^

    ~movie.drama, ‘important portion nothing, when it happened -ending, so coincidently show-up?! when govn.servant came, should THEY action against GANGSTER rather than ‘halau’ BMC ppl?

    ^WHAT’S NEXT ACTION AGAINST GANGSTER(gs) MEMBERS?^

    ~since our technology so advanced(*spent million$ to plant), why can’t identify (gs) face/body figure/others through MyKad~Pendaftaran Negara.

    “Money issue, refuse re-open road? allow me be the 1st to donate RM1 as 4ur loses! Might be follow by others; please note, 1st-&-last time we give-&-take, must re-open the road! don’t shut it down again!?. #Politic statistic again?, come on, give me a break! help me!”

    Warmest regards,
    TQ.

  18. Lets hope…the government have the decency..to stop all these…..before anyone get killed!
    I suspect…if it is in an area..with weak and sensitive residents….and especially…involving one race,,,the Muslims…the UMNO government will solve the matter fast….pleasing everyone.

  19. The BMC case was the same as the former Senai toll. The only trunk road to JB. In the first why are these poice there.Who the hell those guy who act against the residents. Can the IGP explain who gave the order to disperse the risedents and not the GANGSTERS. If not only the useless abb to resign, you too have to go.To all the BN fellos .there still some idiot fools M’sian but not all of them. PLEASE REMEMBER YOU ALL ARE THE SLAVE OF THE RAKYAT. DON’T EVER THINK YHE RAKYAT VOTE YOU ALL, YOU ALL BECOME YA-YA.PLEASE USE YOUR BRAIN TO THINK WHAT I WROTE HERE.

  20. The general mind set of the police has been endowed by training aspects handed down from that era when the British then were bogged down in the Emergency Period, pre and post immediate independence of Malaysia.

    Those were times the authorities look upon suspicion every other person, citizen or not and regardless race, who sort of ‘resist’ the flow of societal norms. As you can see, this mind set requires ‘to suspect’ and in order to be effective and survive, be in an adversarial mode when confronting the public.

    Such is the background and is deeply embedded in the police training aspects, and present time police instructors are only second generation trainers who had the ‘full’ benefit of the first generation who saw the Emergency period live. One will have merry surprises just by looking at some of the police so called manual and standing orders – how archival qualities they are.

    Certainly, the future for the police attitude is to work with the public, and let the public have the benefit of a doubt. In Malaysia, it is mostly public taxes that are used to partly if not fully fund the police salaries, wages and benefits.

    We as the public owe this to ourselves to educate the police mindset.

  21. I think the behaviour of the police especially the lower ranks still needs a lot to be desire. Their reasons of being in the force may be for the easy pickings. Unless the public perception of the force is commendable, it will always attracts 2nd rate recruits.

    ==============================================

    Then maybe you should apply the withdrawal right now… :D

    I’m pretty sure the deputy speaker or the speaker will tell her… this issue doesn’t need immediate debate/action…

    well… typical rubberstamp parliament… :)

  24. Grand Saga has publicly denied that the thugs who used violent means against the residents were hired by them. It doesn’t take much to verify this statement from Grand Saga – someone must have paid these agent provocateurs who have been caught in the act on video.

  25. “Do the pay checks of these FRU come from Grand Saga? Otherwise, why are they acting so biasly???”

    Well, 1st of all these are modern military who stick to military rule, in ancient time there are many cases whereby emperor or general will trick the military by faking the rules to suppress revolt or revolting themselves.

    The FRU are merely obeying the constitution. The leader of the FRU off course will use the excuse that they are obeying their duty to serve and restore public order. Well this can also create more chaos like the tibetan cases.

    In any of this case nobody is wrong, one is using the legal loopholes the grandsage, FRU, etc. The Cheras Mahkota people are fighting for justice which is not specifically noted in the clauses.

  29. Uncle Lim, make notes of the misdeeds in this matter as well as others. Better still, have video recordings made.
    The time will come when the BN will be history. Then, it will be payback time.
    Once the PR is in power, have a complete revamp of the police, making sure only those will pristine records will get the top posts. Similarly, with the army.
    Then start prosecuting ALL those past and present “leaders” who committed misdeeds to the fullest extent of the law.
    Also, don’t be shy to use the ISA!
    Give them a dose of their medicine before sloshing it down the drain!

  30. The most useless Prime Minister Pak Lah who has remained silent so far and allowed the matter turned into violence should be SACKED!! He is still busy enriching himself and his cronies. All matters affecting the country and people are thrown behind his brain. WHAT A SHAME PAK TONG SAMPAH-LAH!!

  31. In all fairness, this BMC problems (cause by who U know !) is not easy to solve, those affected, pls have more patient, PR state govt is not superman etc.
    Those who hv taken a top post of a big company (say 1000 employee or more), or a big building projects (worth RM 1000 million or more), will know, that he / she needs a lot time to work out all the problems

  32. Hi YB

    Are you sleeping again ? Please come down to Planet Earth.

    I am glad that after a few of us started to question on this, you finally remembered it and started a thread. However, your post is so out of date that it is laughable. The police is no longer the villain and DAP reps are no longer the hero.

    Also instead of focusing on the real issue and solving the problem, you again reverted to the “philosophy of loser” by conveniently choose to attack the police instead.

    =================================================
    More roars of support ensued later when Selangor CPO Deputy Comm Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar, who visited the spot, told the residents that he had advised Grand Saga to stop any construction of barricades in the area.

    He said the public would be inconvenienced each time Grand Saga built the barricade. DCP Khalid also urged the Malaysian Highway Authority and the Public Works Department to settle the matter and come up with an amicable solution.

    He also urged the elected representative not to incite the residents.

    Kajang OCPD Asst Comm Shakaruddin Che Mood, who was also present, was hoisted up by several residents who lauded his support for their cause.

    He also persuaded residents to remove several toppled boulders that were blocking cars going into the Bandar Tun Hussein Onn access road.

    Several residents then pooled together RM900 to get the job done, saying that a third of the sum would be for the lorry’s petrol while the rest would be used to buy food.

  33. Grand Saga, satu lagi GRAND SHAMELESS PROJECT OF BARISAN NASIONAL.

    Rakyat Malaysia patiently watching … we are just waiting for DSAI to take over the Federal and send those Sampah Negara to you-know-where. Sooner better!

    Grand Saga, satu lagi disgraceful project of Barisan Nasional!

  34. Can DAP/PKR/PAS arrange for fund raising to help to those Grand Saga victims?

    If you can do that for Myanmar, China & Indonesia believe rakyat Malaysia can do for our own brothers & sisters, can’t we?

  35. To YB LKS,

    FRUs are not Police Officers.

    My respect to FRUs had drop to ‘zero’, “0”.

    I hope good & well respected Police officers should speak out against the wrong procedures, “rules of engagements”.

    Syabas.

  36. “Cops cruelly & viciously brutalise BMC resident – will there be action??”

    A high-ranking police officer at the scene claimed that Chang had run over a FRU personnel with his car.

    “He asked for it. He ran over a policeman and he got what he deserved,” the officer told Malaysiakini a few minutes after the incident.

    Asked to identify the person who was hit by the car, the officer had initial difficulty in persuading the individual to come forward.

    When he did so, the man – who appeared unscathed – claimed: “He tried to run me over… look at my baton, it is broken. What more evidence do you want?”

    However, a police officer who took Chang to the Kajang Hospital said none of the personnel had been hit by the car.

    http://jelas.info/2008/05/28/cops-cruelly-viciously-brutalise-bmc-resident-will-there-be-action/#comments

  39. This should not have become this far. Blame game should stop and yes, the police had lost control of the situation if it needed the FRU in the first place. While it is true that the police should not shoulder the full blame of it, the role of the police force is to maintain and enforce the law. In this case, it had failed to do so by allowing

    1) Grand Saga to block a public road (which I check was still illegal)

    2) Grand Saga to build another road block on public road and allowing criminals/thugs to roam around.

    We should not fully blame the police – part of the blame should be with the State Govt and while they have only been in power for a little over 2 months MUST be on the ball – considering that the last Govt basically have left a nice mess for the new Govt. It would be good if the new Govt can provide the public the agreement that Grand Saga seems to be under the impression that they can block off a public road. Meanwhile, I would like to know what this new administration have achieved after 100 days.

    Meanwhile, while our Malaysian Police is doing an excellent job, I would like to know why did the police lose control of the entire situation to the point where the FRU were needed ? We should make an inquiry, learn from it and NOT LET IT REPEAT AGAIN.

  40. dear killer, maybe you revere YB Lim as a god or demi-god and that is why you expect him to be all knowing and all present.

    i think you should not worship YB Lim like that and accept that he also has 24 hours a day just like you and i. pls regard him as a human being and stop your fascination with him.

    the very fact that he got a post up is better that many other political bloggers (opposition or BN) who has nothing better to do but to demand our PM to step down ‘all the time’ and sidestepping the need and the predicament of the rakyat. but from the looks of it, its BN that is currently too engrossed in their self vanity and foregoing the plight of the rakyat.

  41. Is the authorities in parliament listening with their ears to their rakyat at the very first place???? The answer is “No”.

    Then rakyat should turn down the existing governance in the parliament because they are so deaf…

    C4 case has still no answer, so voilences also can be done to our public lar…to them it is just a small treat isn’t it?

    Look at those bullies thugs, they are so obvious looks like they are belongs from the police force departments..aren’t they??

    The police security force in Malaysia is just to take care of the wealthy and powerful welfares only and it is all the time practice…

  42. It’s so funny this Ezam going back to UMNO is in the front page, why so important if UMNO leader not giving any priviledge yet put it on front page?

    “Former Parti Keadilan Rakyat Youth leader Ezam Mohd Nor is back in Umno. Umno president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said he welcomed Ezam’s return to the party but he (Ezam) was not promised any party position or privileges.”

    Trojan war is beginning?

    Re: Killer

    Just to echo to the quote… it seems like in your theory… Uncle Kit has to blog about everything in the country…

    come to think of it… if he is to write about every single issue on this land called Malaysia… I’ll have hard time following this blog… ;)

    and what do you think YB from Cheras, Serdang and etc are not doing? :)

    =================================================

    Anyway… the urgent motion tabled by Ms. Teo Nie Ching was rejected by deputy speaker because the issue is “not urgent”… according to Mr. Tony Pua… :)

  45. When he did so, the man – who appeared unscathed – claimed: “He tried to run me over… look at my baton, it is broken. What more evidence do you want?” – Tickler

    For a start, police batons or any other batons are made of hardwood.
    It’ll take a tremendous amout of force to break it. If the car hit the officier with enough force to break his baton, it will definitely have enough force to cause him serious injury or even death!
    The fact that only his baton is broken and he is unscathed, shows that there’s something fishy.

  46. 20 FRU Police Officer beating up 1 innocent man, this is like Zimbabwe.

    The FRU or Police Officers think they are above the law and no one can take action against them. YB Lim, please tell they the law.

    When the citizen take the law into their own hands and beat up a snatch thief, the police warn the people against taking action on their own. Now they are doing it ? What’s next ?

    When the police take the action against the people what does the Chief Police and our PM or even DPM have to say to this ? All have been silence on this ? Silence means Condolence to this violence ??????

  50. There are probably some 10 or so urgent motions which has been denied the chance to see the light of day in the House. So far the most frequently use reason for rejection is “not urgent” – be it urgent medical treatments on ISA detainees (not urgent), death to National Service detainees (not urgent) or death under police custody (only very few such cases).

    …Today, the Deputy Speaker once again rejected SERDANG’s motion, that is to debate the police action and inaction over the Bandar Mahkota Cheras – Grand Saga toll controversy, which has resulted in individuals being hurt by thugs in full police presence and another being beaten up by some 20 police officers. This issue has hit the headlines over the past 3 days or so.

    http://tonypua.blogspot.com/2008/05/urgent-motion-denied-denied-denied.html

  51. The Cheras incident only shows the utter comtempt of some police officers wrt to guidelines on using excessive force – maybe this is how many detainees end up dead in lock-ups.

    I know many will say the IPCMC is dead and buried but we should insist on its implementation NOW before someone else gets killed over a RM1 toll.

    In this fiasco, the police have turned out smelling worse than the toll operator.
    http://malaysiawatch3.blogspot.com/2008/05/it-takes-only-10-seconds-of-madness-to.html

  52. The Selangor government can DO something. It is whether they ar pressing hard for it or not. A solution is to they can pay the toll operator a compesation to allow for local residents to access the road. The compensation can be in the form of financial consideration right?

    But I know they have a LOT of considerations before decide on doing something. But let’s just hope they wont be so lembap and wait for more riots and God forbid when more people get hurt before taking action. Selangor MB must be able to poke his nose in the issue right away before the people get annoyed.

  53. YB Kit,

    This is becoming a joke. Now the residents had decided to go to the Parliament to see the Works Minister because they have no confidence in the DAP MPs or the Pengkhianat Rakyat state govt headed by En Goofy-On-The-Ice.

    But the biggest joke is at the end of the below report. Instead of helping the residents, YB Kit ask for YET ANOTHER INQUIRY !!!

    Are you serious YB about this YB ? While people are crying for help, all you are interested is finding some bullets to shoot at BN govt. Perhaps another RIC for BMC ?

    I am sorry Kit, my respect for you are at an all time low.

    May 29, 2008 MYT 1:14:44 PM
    Bandar Mahkota Cheras residents at Parliament
    By NG CHENG YEE

    KUALA LUMPUR: Residents of Bandar Mahkota Cheras were at Parliament on Thursday to urge the Works Minister to reopen the access road into their housing area.

    About 30 residents gathered outside the Parliament building, with banners that said “Menteri Kerja Raya, Tolong Rakyat Buka Jalan (Works Minister, please help the people open up the road).”

    A resident, who only wanted to be known as Mas, said she had been living in the housing area for five years and had been waiting for the access road to be opened for four years now.

    She claimed that the barricade built by Grand Saga Sdn Bhd had caused terrible traffic congestion in the area.

    “I have to leave my house every day at 5.30am to send my children to school. If I leave at 6am, I would not be able to make it,” said the mother of three.

    DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang, who met the residents outside Parliament building, asked for an inquiry into the incident on Tuesday where gangsters and thugs were used against residents and reporters during the protest at Bandar Mahkota Cheras. “There should be a full inquiry into this incident. The residents have their right to make their objections known against the building of the barricade, and there should not have been any physical violence,” he said.

  54. Today, it was reported that Ezam rejoined UMNO because he was impressed with the anti-corruption efforts of Sleepy Head.

    When I read the reports, I nearly rolled about the floor in laughter. Anti-corruption efforts ? Equine Capital getting thousands of acres of land, Monsoon Cup, PKFTZ bailout, SCOMI awarded contracts through negotiated tenders, ECM Libra, UMNO lawyer appointed Court of Appeals president – all these happened during Sleepy Head’s tenure.

    Of course, like most things in Bolehland, THESE THINGS NEVER HAPPENED.

  56. Godfather

    What made you think that it would be any better in PKR ? Just look at this guy Khaled. He tying to be portray himself to be a simple and honest person but his history reveals that he had personally enriched himself millions of rakayt’s money. Even Zakaria Derus didn’t amass such a huge wealth.

  57. Residents of Bandar Makhota Cheras should be praised for their persistence. The Selangor Government should take a strong stance in getting all the necessary parties together to solve this issue that has been a thorn to many good citizens for so many years.

    All these time, it seems that most of the Selangor Council Members only know to talk but the doing the job is still sorely left to be seen by many. No more pointing fingers and stop the blaming game.

    Look into the contracts and make the necessary decisions that would be beneficial to all.

  58. Of the 5 years Mas lived in BMC, BN was in power both in the State and Federal level. Out of the 5 years, BN was in power for around 1741+ day, compare to the new Govt of 84 days. Why did BN do something about it ? Atleast BMC is getting the attention it deserved otherwise, it will be one of those things that will be swept under the carpet.

  60. Killer,

    Referring to your posts on the Selangor MB, things isnt how you painted it.

    1) He has a good business sense, the reason he left PNB is he was forced out due to politics.
    2) Same thing happened while he was at Guthrie, the GLC restructuring was done while he had other ideas in moving Guthrie forward, instead of becoming part of SIME. DO you honestly see Sime doing that well since the merger?

    As a listed company’s head, you are typically given ESOS, look at the IOI MD stepping down with 5million shares at 2.50 for him too. So your point of skeletons are unfounded.

  61. Where are the Pakatan Raykat? Why only the DAP and PKR stand out to voice thise matter. I thought when it is concern the public no matter what race, the Pakatan Rakyat should stood out and voice. Again why only PR, why.

  63. Why indeed ?

    When you can’t even solve simple matter like this that lies within the state managed by PR, it makes one wonder what’s the point of having PR govt in the first place. So is the Selangor PR govt is a toothless tiger ?

    Is this is the trend we going to see for the next 5 years ? That the PR state govts will say they can do nothing because every thing is controlled by BN Federal govt ?

  64. Actually rite now these is a test for the Pakatan Raykat to show how sincerity to the Malaysian after we vote for them.Are they in next 5 years will be like Barisan Nasional kind of attitude.

  65. Killer asks what makes me think that it (the situation) would be better under PR.

    For a start, the people in PR don’t steal for a living. For 50 years, the nation’s coffers have been stolen blind by BN.

  66. So Khalid ripped the rakyat off in the early 90s with the approval of the then UMNO president, Dr M. So did Daim, so did Tajuddin Ramli, so did Halim and a host of pro-UMNO cronies. What should we do with all these people , Killer ?

  67. The best way for the rakyat to judge the efficiency and “goodness” of PR would be for PR to take over the federal government. Then there could be no more excuses, or comparing apples with oranges. If PR can’t do the job, or if they assume the old BN habit of stealing from the rakyat, then they would be voted out at the next GE.

    Killer, are you game for this ?

  68. Godfather

    PR can’t even manage a state like Selangor and I shudder to think what would they do with the Federal Govt. Perhaps at that time they would keep blaming the UN, the US, IMF, World Bank, etc.

  71. Who stole before gaining power ? If you are referring to Khalid, he bought shares with the sanction of the then UMNO president. He didn’t issue contracts to himself, his cronies or his relatives, did he ?

  72. Killer, you revel putting every one down – which obviously makes you feel BIG and IMPORTANT. I feel so sorry for you. Your world must be a miserable one.

    Lately, you have gone hammers and tongs with vengence at Datuk Khalid instead. I am convinced you are an EMPTY VESSEL, a lot of noise but no substance. So I will let the barking dog carry on.

  73. Killer,
    You criticize the PR government. Does that mean the BN government would do better?

    Seriously, does anyone really believe that? Considering the fact that the mess was started by BN government in the first place?

    Consider that this is a federal Highway and falls under the responsibility of the federal governments Malaysian Highway Authority? What has the BN federal government done so far regarding this issue? ABSOLUTELY Nothing.

    In fact, a federal (BN) minister has clearly stated BN’s stand on this issue. He has to look after the interests of the (federal) government first. Cause the contract states clearly that the federal government would have to pay for any loss in traffic volume.

    So BN is content to let the people suffer because it serves them politically weaken PR’s support. Once the people have suffered enough, they will step in smelling like roses claiming to solve the problem (which they created in the first place anyway). Is that what you classify as a better and more capable government?

    And PR should have anticipated this move by BN in the first place. BN will use every means at its disposal to crush its opponents. You can protest and debate and inquire all you want. Doesn’t do shit! You are now running the state. Use what assets you have and propose a solution.

    Btw Killer, it was the BN government that blamed the US, Soros, IMF and World bank in 1997. BN claimed it did nothing wrong and that they were sabotaged by the ‘rich’ of the world. So you would prefer a BN government?

  76. Where are MCA and Gerakan when the rakyat need them? Oh, because you didn’t win the election so you cannot voice up for the people?! Nonsense! So what even if MCA/Gerakan/MIC get 100% of the votes, they will still do nothing succumb to yesman syndrome. Well done rakyat Malaysia for voting them out for being BN silent puppies!

    BN is not for the rakyat. BN is only for the rich and famous who rip and rob the people.

    At least DAP and PKR standing up for the residents. Keep standing strong for the sake of justice and righteousness!

    BN learnt nothing from 8 March Tsunami. BN needs an Avalanche from the rakyat to be completely wiped off from this nation.

    Killer, I bet you envy YB Kit and Datuk Khalid. I bet you wish you had their fame, power and position. Sour grapes, perhaps? Its a very sorry state of mind.

    =============================================

    This is all the more reason why ISA SHOULD BE RETAINED
    When the Opposition takes over, use this ISA to give them back their medicine.
    Retain the iron masks for these thugs, goons, corrupts, et al.

  80. Actually MCA and Gerakan and MIC is in the history book cannot sound anymore even if they horn for the citizen, do you think their BN can help? If they can help then why they lost to opposition. So like I said they are in the history book in disgrace manner to the whole of citizen of Malaysia.

  81. Uncle kit The recent Grand Saga Action should be exploited in the next election. Look who protect who..? Is the Police protecting the people or the BN corporation The people should by now know.These toll operators are blood sucker!.

  82. it’s good that this blog has become a dialogue rather than a monologue. especially when it involves a dialogue between killer and the rest.

    killer may be wrong or whatever but he makes more sense than many here.

  83. The Ketuanaan BN goons shud stop denying people basic infrastructure like the road, why they invite these private company “Grand Saga” to act as collector from the people. The people are paying income taxes every month in return the govt. should provide basic road not charge them for using the basic road.

    The Ketuanaan BN goons wanted to collect everthing and steal us from basic rights.

    From state waste collection to toll collection, to land reclaim & privatize deals. They are pretty intelligent & smart to exploit the people from all angles.

    Stupid Kerdil is even worst than giant.

  85. lakilompat:

    If we use the intelligent and the smart in developing Bolehland, what is going to happen to all those who are not intelligent and not-so-smart but who are in control of the policies of this country ?

    Ask Killer what is going to happen to his UMNO bosses (especially the Sleepy Head) if there is true meritocracy ?

  86. Khalid most definitely has a dubious reputation. But has he done anything illicit since coming to power? I don’t know.

    Which is exactly the reason why we need more transparency and accountability in our governance. A stronger judiciary and a trully effective ACA.Things that BN did not bother with.

    The Selangor government have formed a comittee comprising of non state exco MP’s INCLUDING BN MP’s to monitor the state governments activities.

    So if Killer or anyone here has got any info on alleged wrongdoings of the current Selangor state government, please contact SELCAT. If you don’t trust PR, there are even BN MP’s there for you to contact.

  90. Sad very sad , this is happening right within the Federal tertitory , it enhances the plight of some of my friends stories in smaller towns about these little napoleans,

    it more like chieftains , there is no security these days, no wonder mr lee advocates military training to our youngsters, the whole machinery is not jiving, all little jabatan has their chieftains,

    Any one see the C.A.T?

  91. Dear YB, I think PR has definately done a good job in this SAGA.
    I spoke to my Malay friends who were UMNO staunch supporters for so many years and YES …. they are going for PR. Slowly but not realising it, the many issues going on is slowly choking BN. They let the hired hooligans and cronies flex their muscles and these really upset my friends. BN is DN.
