REFORMS: Corruption in the police force

In a video dated August 7, 2024 on Datuk Seri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay's official TikTok channel, the Deputy Inspector-General of Police has warned against corruption within the police force. 

        At the same time the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) chief, Datuk Seri Shuhaily Mohd Zain had earlier reprimanded the OCPDs at a meeting about the issue of corruption within the police force. He has since made an indellible mark on the public after this video was published.


        If these two are promoted to become the country's IGP and Deputy IGP, there is at least hope that we will see a cleaner police force. Malaysia needs this very badly. 

        It is a known fact that many police officers are living beyond their means. Stories told by foreigners working in Malaysia can be heard over the grapevine how they were extorted by some police constables. A video that went viral how a British couple got away with RM 100 bribe has landed three cops in hot soup.

        Former IGP, Tan Sri Abdul Hamid bin Bador had also exposed a lot of corruption within the police force. However, the political situation during his era was not ripe for Abdul Hamid to shake up the police force. In fact, what the former IGP revealed did not shock the people, as this is already an open secret that everyone knew about. 

        Now, both the Yang Di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar the king of Malaysia and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim have given their clear directive to fight corruption to the very end. 
    
        The public must support this initiative spearheaded by the King and the Prime Minister. 

        Never has it happened before that in the news nearly every week, there are a number of cases. The "big" fish and the small fries are also netted in by the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commission.  

        Senior police officers are also being charged for corruption. Ten traffic cops were recently arrested after the discovery of RM3,753 in cash in their possession.



        According to Ayob, many of the senior officers (see video above or Ayob's official TikTok channel) continue to receive corruption money even after their retirement. This has become a norm and the culture that even before his coronation, Sultan Ibrahim wants this "cancer" to be eradicated.

        More Malaysians must rise up to eradicate this cancer that has affected so many ordinary Malaysians. It is now or never!

My heart will go on

  It must be at least twenty years ago when I first encountered Malaysia’s very own Stevie Wonder, Colin Ng Soon Beng. It was during Chinese New Year, at the home of a mutual friend. Colin was only about ten years old then. His mother introduced him to me as a “special child.” She said, “Pick a song. We’ll play it for Colin to listen, and he will play it back for you.” I chose My Heart Will Go On from Titanic. To this day, Colin still remembers that it was the song he played for me. Born with multiple disabilities, Colin’s journey has been anything but ordinary. Being visually impaired, he could not learn music the way most children do. Yet God blessed him with an extraordinary gift: a razor-sharp ear. He could identify the brand of a photocopier or the model of a car simply by hearing its sound. His mother, Janet, devoted her life to nurturing his talent. After losing her husband when Colin was 24, she became not only a mother but also a father figure, chauffeur, and companion in ...

DALAM EMPAT BAHASA/ IN FOUR LANGUAGES/在四种语言中/ நான்கு மொழிகளில்: A Piece of Good News Worth Celebratinng

Akhirnya, anak Sarawak ini — Soliman Wan — telah menerima kewarganegaraannya! Dilahirkan 52 tahun lalu di kawasan pedalaman Sarawak, bukan sesuatu yang mudah bagi ayah dan ibunya untuk ke bandar bagi mendaftarkan kelahriannya. Tambahan pula, pada waktu itu, ramai penduduk di Sabah dan Sarawak kurang memahami kepentingan dokumen rasmi sebagai bukti status kewarganegaraan. Soliman dilahirkan pada tahun 1974, ketika Malaysia baru berusia 13 tahun. Kefahaman mengenai kewarganegaraan masih belum begitu meluas, terutamanya dalam kalangan masyarakat yang tercicir daripada arus pembangunan dan sistem pendidikan negara. Kehidupan Soliman sebagai seorang pastor penuh dengan cabaran. Tanpa kewarganegaraan, beliau tidak dapat memiliki kad pengenalan, memohon pasport, membuka akaun bank, dan pergerakannya sangat terhad, malah di dalam negara sendiri. Gajinya terpaksa dibayar melalui akaun individu lain yang dipercayai. Kini, dengan penganugerahan kewarganegaraan ini, komuniti Kristian di gerejanya ...

Aduan Sifar: Tauladan Dato' Zahri Samingon menerajui Aduan Sifar untuk MBPJ perlu dicontohi oleh Yang DIPertua Majlis-majlis lain

  Saya amat kagum dengan Datuk Bandar Petaling Jaya, Dato’ Zahri Samingon. Dalam satu perbincangan ringkas melalui WhatsApp, saya menyuarakan kebimbangan bahawa kesesakan lalu lintas yang ketara berkemungkinan berlaku di persimpangan Jalan 16/11 dan Jalan 17/1 dalam beberapa bulan akan datang. Saya baru sahaja dimaklumkan bahawa satu lagi jemaah gereja berskala besar akan berpindah ke situ pada bulan Julai, yang hampir pasti akan menambah tekanan di persimpangan yang sedia sibuk tersebut. Dalam perbualan kami menggunakan WhatsApp, saya mengemukakan beberapa cadangan dan menjelaskan satu konsep yang saya percaya beliau sudah pun faham dengan baik, iaitu Zero Complaints (Aduan Sifar). Ini merupakan satu prinsip yang kami pelajari di bawah sistem Excellence Through Quality (EQ) yang diperkenalkan oleh guru kualiti Philip Crosby. Konsep Zero Complaints ini ringkas tetapi sangat berkesan—ia bermaksud bersifat proaktif : menjangka masalah dan menyelesaikannya sebelum ia menjadi isu awa...
