I was caught in a very bad traffic jam in the Serdang area this evening and could manage less than a couple of hundred meters in half an hour and decided to call the Serdang Police Station. I was informed that just in front of the South City Plaza, there was an overturned truck which had caused the jam and that the police were there to control the situation. All the way to the Mines and beyond, I could not see any overturned truck nor any policeman. I called again after about an hour while still caught in the jam and after identifying myself as the same caller who called before, I was promptly told that I should have contacted the traffic department. I asked for the number of the department and he could not give me and after some wranglings, he said he would call for me.

This is but a microcosm of the general state of the present government - no sense of responsibility, no sense of any loyalty to or any desire to serve the people, no sense of governance, no sense of shame, no sense of urgency at all except to jump into the gravy train. And the PM says we have improved in our Corruption Perception Index! Numerically, we may have been placed above many other countries but ask any right thinking Malaysian, he will tell you Mr PM, “come on-lah, you must be kidding.”

One attende asked in the question time. “How is our currency aginst the neighbours for example Singapore? Has it changed that much?”

That is Malaysia boleh, shiok sendiri.

In 1995, the PM was a different person using a different denominator to calculate that.
In 2007, Pak Lah used yet another different denominator to calculate that. You know lah, his arithmatics is “setengah masak”, so his figures are diffferent lah.

“IGP Musa behaves more like a BN politician now, don’t you all agree?” - Jong

He thinks he is smart. He thought that he was smart enough to be an IGP but his current position was given to him on a silver platter. He was nothing but a mattress salesman during Anwar court case time.

Just like Mansion King Zakaria, he used to be nothing but a railway gatekeeper. But how did he ended up with his riches and giant mansion, you know I know lah.

For comparision purpuse, the common denominator should be used. Otherwise, the performance of index for the last 5 years can be used to deduce the conclusion, provided the number of participating countries must be relatively constant.

- No doubt the number of countries included in CPI survey increased tremendously from 1995 - 2007. Subsequently, it may be argued that better performing countries may have lowered the rank of Malaysia.

- Notwithstanding the fact that new countries have been added, our score has remained stagnant, if not decreased, over the last 10 years.

- This is indisputable since our CPI score in 1995 and 2007 was 5.28 and 5.10 respectively.

- By way of example, Taiwan (28; 5.08) was below Malaysia (26; 5.28) in 1995. But in 2007, the former scored 5.7 and ranked 34 while Malaysia with 5.1 and ranked 43.

- On a separate note, I have NEVER trusted Bernama’s pro-government news reports.

What about the illegal transfer rm9.9 by those desperate Balkis wives - one day after their husbands cease to be the people’s choice of “elected representatives”? Same goes to those at Penang’s end, how come the police have not gone for KTK’s annoying wife for doing the same? Look at the many thefts/robberies, mat rempit and missing children cases that have remained unsolved and forgotten.

“….In 1995 there were 41 participating countries, rising to 163 and 179 in 2006 and 2007.”…. suggesting that Malaysia’s ranking dropped because the base of counntries ranked had increased.

Can someone please enlighten him that the bigger the base sample used, the more accurate the ranking?

As for the IGP visiting HK to learn from the ICAC, my first question is why the IGP? Is he in charge of the ACA too or is the ACA independent? Nazri went to great lengths to explain the separation of powers in Parliament just a few days ago and it seems to me that is just hogwash because clearly the IGP is also involved with the ACA. All this talk about the independence of the ACA is just a bunch of crap. And last but not least, you can copy the best system in the world but at the end of the day if the people who are implementing it are not sincere and honest, then it is just a waste of time. The extra layers we are adding to this whole shit mess is simply to allow more opportunities for manipulations. And already we can see the seeds of that rot being planted here in the “new” MCAC system.

Had a dream last night, DSAI -PM, LKS - DPM, KS - ISA DIRECTOR, guess what KS did to you guys!

I hope it will come true!

Generally I use the 80/20 rule. 20% are good, 80% are not good. We are definitely NOT good..Hmmm.. Haven’t I heard that before? yeah. Throughout my freaking life!!!!

Some spin doctors must have convinced the PM that if we are consistently bad or not so good, it is okay.

What an idiot……..

Much of tax-payers money would have been saved if IGP Musa Hassan just walked across the Causeway eh?! Pakatan Rakyat’s Lim Guan Eng, Penang’s Chief Minister flies ‘economy class’ whilest Perak MB Nizar Jamaluddin takes a bus to attend Parliament! See the difference? IGP Musa behaves more like a BN politician now, don’t you all agree?

FREE MALAYSIA! FREE MALAYSIA!

Mr Lim is an ‘A’ class material and won’t be satisfied with just scoring first in the class. Mr Lim wants to score all A1s.

But Pak Lah is a third rated material. Just like LAT portrayed in his cartoon, Pak Lah would jump with joy if he scored a grade 3 with all P7s and P8s.

So susah la if you wantto debate with him.
Tomorrow if MU is placed in position 500, Pak Lah would give a standing ovation to himself and the VC.
Forever we would remain behind.
Look at Singapore. They are never satisfied with their excellent achievements. If they have the best, they still strive to improve further.

It is good for us and also good for BN/UMNO, because these police force are the front line (interaction with the populace).

Our ultimate aim is the BIG BIG FISH, PKFZ, AZALINA LONDON ADVANCED SPORTS INSTITUTE, PDRM, GOVERNMENT PROJECTS, ACA, LINGAM, ALTANTUYA, SPACE EXPERIMENT REPORT (WHERE?) & ETC.

As we can see, HUGE HUGE AMOUNTS are used (or wasted) on this kind of projects, if the reverse was employed, resources saved SHOULD & COULD BE used to help Malaysians improve infrastructure (less dependency on toll concessionaire), promote tourism, eco-tourism, education, medical, and many more.

Please look at real BIG picture Malaysians!

FREE MALAYSIA FROM TYRANNY & CORRUPTION!

Anyway, we must not not behave naively. How the performace of the country and those corruptions scheme involved has already made sense, but the rakyat couldn’t do more than agree than what those people up there has said. Just the practice of Boleh Land.

- Perjuangan anda tidak pernah bermula, sila balik ke tempat asal dan beri peluang kepada perjuang yang berkebolehan. Bukan itu, dan itu dan itu, aha yang ini, yang pernah ditumbuk di matanya.

Coming to the CPI, I think our PM need to be advised the definition of INDEX. Previous index & current index cannot be compared with in terms of %. So, in a class of say 20 people, you are 3rd in class means you are worst off than say being 20th in a class of 100 people? Think it is important to value the 20 students & the 100 students whether the students are genius/average/idiots.

The question/answer we should be seeking is: how are we going to improve on the CPI for next year? Don’t tell me there will be over 400 countries next year & if we are at 100th, we are still good coz the % of new countries included are higher than the % of position lost. Now we know why we are doomed.

Malaysia’s halal connection, Badawi and Temasek

Is there conflict of interest in halal corporation?
Malaysia’s plan to develop internation Halal certification and halal food industrial parks, is raising a web of sinister conflicts. The newly-formed Halal Industry Development Corp or HDC is under the auspices of the Prime Minister’s office, although ownership of the company is unclear. HDC even processes foreign direct investment (FDI) for the halal sector, a role designed for the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (Miti).

HDC, and its links to Badawi’s family, got a lot closer when HDC signed up with Tamadam Bonded Warehouse, a company which is being taken over by the PM’s brother Ibrahim to develop halal parks.

Not sure how much percentage gathered by this idiots?

Corruption will not stop as long as the UmnoKuraps are in control!!

Umnokuraps are the Junta of Malaysia!! Kurap-tion is my new phrase!

No increase in corruption ? Phtui !!!

becos different races have different characters…and will do things differently… so we’re not comparing apples to apples…

THE GREATEST JOKE OF THE MILLENIUM!! HAHAHA…..

Our PM should definitely get the Noble “prize” for “good governance.”

The average factor calculation method adopted by our Malaysian government may very well one day go against them similar to the jolt that BN had experienced in the recently concluded General Election. We can continue to ignore the facts written on the wall but face the possibilty of running into deep trouble like Enron had, i.e. believing that everything is fine and dandy.

The Penang Philharmonic Orchestra
, Hey, It should be Malaysia Philharmonic Orchestra lah! This RM500 million can be better spent otherwise, these foreign musician are highly paid to do very little works which do not benefit more than 99.9% of Malaysian at all !

“punsihment” should be “punishment”

“consfication” should be “confiscation”.

“proganda” should be “propaganda”

remember the first corruption case that was brought to court when Pak La la la la became the PM? where is the culprit now? FREED! lol…the rakyat ain’t dumbos! don’t fool us..

and improvements does not mean we can stop here and let the current rate of corruptions go on!!! better than 75% of the countries in the world doesn’t mean we can start let Malaysia rot now!!!! what a stupid remarks@
