Kak Wok - Pembantu Rumah Yang Setia

2010-01-13T13:22:00.006+08:00

Kebelakangan ini acap kali kita disajikan dengan berita-berita mengerumkan mengenai pembantu rumah.Penderaan majikan terhadap perkerja asing mendapat publisiti meluas dimedia cetak kita malah adakala terlebih sensasi sehinggakan memecah minda kita akan kezaliman manusia terhadap manusia lain.Begitu juga kisah penderaan anak-anak majikan sewaktu majikan mereka melangkah keluar dari rumah untuk kekantor.
Seringkali teman-teman mengeloh akan susahnya untuk mendapat seorang pembantu rumah yang bersesuaian.
Malah ada juga teman yang bernasib baik yang mempunyai pembantu yang benar-benar tawaduk dan dapat menyesuaikan diiri sepenohnya dengan keluarga yang menyara mereka.Pembantu-pembantu tersebut bukan hanya dapat menjalankan tugas yang diharapkan daripada mereka tetapi mereka juga mampu memberikan bonus servis tambahan sambil tekun beribadat dan dapat mengajar mengaji QURAN kepada anak-anak majikan dan memberikan sepenoh kasih-sayang dan perhatian seumpama ibu-bapa jati kepada anak-anak tersebut sewaktu majikan tidak berada dirumah.

Problem ini merupakan masallah 'universal'.Kami walaupun tidak mempunyai anak kecil tetapi memerlukan pembantu yang dapat menemani ibu tua kami sewaktu semua seharian keluar mencari rezeki.Alhamdullilah,udah 3 tahun bersama,sekadar mampu mengurus hal rumah-tangga yang diamanahkan kepadanya.

Di awal tahun-tahun 60'an,kita tidak mempunyai pembantu yang diimport.
Penduduk Malaysia sebagai negara yang baru tersedar daripada cengkaman penjajah belum mampu mengimport pembantu dari luar.
Kita merupakan bekas pembantu rumah kepada 'Tuan-Tuan dan Mum-mum Setengah' .Sedih tapi benar.Kita diperkudakan oleh mereka.

Putaran ekonomi masih ditahap gear satu,walau bagaimana pun kesan daripada pendidikan awal kepada anak-anak pribumi,telah berjaya menujudkan suatu golongan 'Kelas Menengah Melayu Bandar'.
Mereka-mereka ini merupakan golongan 'pioneers' dalam segala bidang,seterusnya merupakan mentor kita dalam membina diri seterusnya berbakti demi 'Nation building'.

Golongan inilah pioneers di kawasan perumahan baru ditengah-tengah kota.
Persekitaran PJ old Town -Jln Othman,Jln Gasing,PJ Kawasan Kg.Tungku,Sect.14 merupakan penempatan bagi golongan pioneers pada waktu itu.Tahun-tahun 70'an,kawasan-kawasan baru ujud untuk anak-anak golongan pre dan post merdeka.
Penempatan baru saperti Kelana Jaya,Subang Jaya adalah by product 'ecomonic boom' DEB.
Maka,Tuan-puan baru yang berhijrah ke pusat bandaraya mememerlukan pembantu.
Awal 70'an Malaysia merupakan 'a nation of Clerks'.Tahun-tahun pertengahan 70'an,JPA melalui 'Operasi Isi Penoh' telah berjaya mengisi kurang lebih perbagai 30,000 jawatan 'rank and file' dalan masa 1 tahun.

Masallah pembantu kepada Tuan-Puan baru sudah ujud tika itu,maka jalan lintas untuk mengatasinya ialah memgimport saudara-mara perempuan yang pendidikan mereka sekadarnya,untuk membantu seisi keluarga.Tetapi dengan keujudan kilang-kilang yang mememerlukan tenaga kerja maka focus anak-anak saudara yang dibawa untuk membantu rumah tangga dikota bertukar.Tidak dapat dipersalahkan anak-anak yang dibawa ke kota kerana menumpang periok nasi saudara-saudara dikota sebagai pembantu rumah amat tercorot didalam resuma mereka.

Mereka ingin berdiri diatas kaki sendiri.Maka penhijarahan mereka sebagai pembantu dirumah saudara-saudara mereka waktu itu hanyalah 'transit point' sementara mendapat peluang berkerja dikilang-kilang spt. Texas Instrument,Motorola atau mana-mana kilang yang memerlukan pekerja dengan gaji dan kemudahan yang amat sederhaha.

Masallah ini tidak berlaku kepada ibu saudara saya yang bertugas sebagai Matron di GBKL sehingga bersara.Mereka suami- isteri bekerja sehingga pencen dan mempunyai 5 anak-anak yang sudah dewasa.Sehingga kini mereka mempunyai seorang pembantu yang berkhidmat sehingga akhir hayatnya.Masih tetap bersama mereka dari permulaan mereka mendirikan rumah tangga sehingga kini anak-anak yang dijaganya udah berrumah tangga dan mempunyai anak.

Kak Wok.merupakan anak yatim piatu sejak kecil, bersekolah hanya setakat Darjah 3 Sek.Melayu.Seingatan saya,Kak Wok sudah berada didalam keluarga semenjak saya belum bersekolah lagi.Dimana ibu saudara dan suaminya bertugas ia akan turut bersama.Kesemua anak-anaknya diasoh,dimanjakan dan diurus sebaik mungkin oleh Kak Wok sejak mereka dilahirkan.
Anak-anak ibu saudara saya tersebut kesemuanya telah berjaya dan telah pun mendirikan rumah tangga.

Kak Wok tidak pernah berkahwin dan tidak mempunyai ahli keluarga yang lain.Umurnya sekitar 60'an sekarang.Amat sedikit saya mengetahui tentang sejarah hidupnya.Tapi yang saya pasti, Kak Wok merupakan contoh terbaik dapat saya bandingkan dengan pembantu-pembantu sekarang.Dia bukan sahaja redha dengan tugannya sebagai pembantu rumah tetapi khidmat yang diberinya penoh dedikasi dan ikhlas.Bukan hanya itu malah dia redha akan segala tenaga yang diberinya kepada keluarga yg.membelanya.Bila ditanya akan kesihatanya kini,jawapan yang diberi amat mudah

'....sekiranya ajal saya sudah tiba,kebumikan saya bersebelahan dengan majikan saya.

Apa kah rahsia Kak Wok sehingga begitu akrab degan majikannya?
Jawapannya ikhlas seikhlas-ikhlasnya dengan apa-apa tugas dan amanah yang diberi oleh majikan kita.

The Satay House - Almarhum Pak Jaffar Shawal

2009-11-17T17:52:00.012+08:00

ole...Satay House.
My thought came rambling again after a retro visit to Jogja and Bandung last week.Have a personel survillence after the much publish cold shoulder given by some of our distant cousin dari seberang.
No issue in matter of fact.Traders welcome their distant cousins with open arms.
Pak Beca make a living with the guest volume.Tipping generously out of sympathy.Generous,yes we are to our much needed cousins.
Jogjakarta as hippish as ever and Bandung as trendiest as ever.
Its Paris Van Java and it sure does.

Adooooo !!!Sunda beauty dong !!!

I try to stay out of Jakarta.Indonesia is not Jakarta.
My network in Indo is good.
Good opportunities too.On that score,its the other side of the coin.

Again,I'm barking at the wrong tree,its not about Bandung or Bromo or Jogjakarta I wish to write about but about a man,a petit in size man,moustacho and very focus.
The quite Gentleman,I may say,a positive altitude with full vision on buisness.Aided or I would rather say together with his beloved wife,brave the storm and thunder on the battle field of Sussex Garden,Paddington,London W 1 till his last breath.

Pak Jaffar Shawal,arrive on shore of good ole England during the post 60's era.
Alone only on one mission,that is how could a Malay from Penang excel in buisness in the United Kingdom?
Rolling and tumbling leaving his beloved wife Aunty Zaharah,an I.O with our Police Force at home then.He succesed to open the very first Malay Restaurant in the middle of metropolis London,battling his buisness anchorman with guts and sheer determination.

The birth of Satay House serving the local dishes was an instant hit among the hungry student and Malaysian community population then.It serve as a joint,for us student far away from mother land and mother's cooking.For those who have,its the place to water down their tummy with The Nasi Kandar Uncle's Special and to those whom do not have like me serve as a place where extra pocket money comes in handy serving as a waiter or kitchen helper,helping Uncle,the main Chef and Mummy Zaharah in the kitchen either in summer or me all year round as a part time waiter.

It was winter 1980,I first work part time as a waiter at the Satay House.
Pak Jaffar and mummy (as I call Aunty Zaharah,together with the young one,Onn and Harun and Liza and Ikram the present Satay House chef was still in their infant.
The three Onn,Harun and Lisa was well train by both Bapak(as I call Arwah Pak Jaffar)and Mummy Zaharah,especially Liza the only daughter was taught from the very tender age of table arrangement and where folk,knife and spoon and napkins suppose to be set.Liza is the most focus as far as I could recall.
I remembered well,at her tender age,she taught me to knot the paper napkins,neatly folded shape like a fan.A serious little gal then.

The restaurant open its doors at 12noon for lunch time and last order at 2.30pm,opens its door again at 6pm till the last order at 10.30.
I work in the evening.I have to catch the last train at 11pm to Balham via Bakerloo line at Edgware Road tube station changing for Northern Line at Elephant & Castle.
Missing the last train means I have to take the Red Arrow Nite bus at Trafalga Square.

Kitchen staff then was Uncle Jalil,as I call him 'Unkelek',for what reason I dont know,an Indian Muslim origin.A long service staff and the first chef of Satay House.His curry mutton and rendang a class of his own.You find your hands licking after his curry,especially in winter.The sambal belacan and his curry goes together well to keep the hungry tummy and body warm especially in winter.

Asisting him then was an Indonesian immigrant but left after a few months and a few of my buddies whom work part-time during the long summer break earning jes to save up for a new set of Hi-Fi.
Kitchen staff keep changing.Kitchen staff pinching was normal then as between 1982 onward after the success of Satay House being the pioneer Malay Restaurant in the middle of west end,strings of so call Malaysian Restaurant sprang up through out the Soho up till Swiss Cottage/Hempstead Heath area,with various variation of curry and rendang.
Suddenly,the Malaysian population and Mat Salleh's has lots of Malaysian Restaurant as a choise.
It was Pak Jaffar anchorman and vision that make the Malaysian cuisine be known in the West End.He steps in at the right time with sheer hard work and determination.

Together with mummy Zaharah,the combination works well.
Mummy Zaharah , she's a hardworking,persistent strong lady.It must be tHe regimentation grooming in the force which make her one.
Working round the clock non stop.
I remember,the Malaysian economic boom in 1984-85 well.
Her porcelain rose buisness was blooming.There was porceline roses everywhere in her petit flat above the Satay House,where the family retire after closing time.
Small and charm but beautiful.I reckon that was the order of the day then.

I was waitering Satay House table before Satay House was renovated.
The cellar downstairs was converted into sitting of 10 extra table.
Up stairs,orginally it could only accomodate 10 tables only.
A sardine pack on buzy week-end,serving regulars mainly from the rich Brunei scholars then.
Harun and Onn was still at primary schooling age,not much aid they could give to their persisten,determine loving parents then.
Mummy Zaharah was heavy pregneant with Ikhram.
The operation of the restaurant was a team work effort.
The team at times was crumbbling due to staff pinching or untrain staff.

Uncle Jalil,the head Chef was having visa problem with the immigration authority.
At a stage,I could feel mummy Zaharah and Pak Jaffar was having tremendous pressure from the operation of the restaurant then.
High number of staff leaving in short notice was normal.
Mummy was force to be in the kitchen after delivery of Ikhram to see the operation goes through,no matter how,the doors remains open to the regulars 7 days a week to see the OD they have taken on the Restaurant renovation goes through without a pinch.

Allah with the persistent and the determination.
Allah the all hearing and are with the strong,the brave such as the one Almarhum Pak Jaffar and Mummy Zaharah.
The Satay House still stands tall among the listing of Malaysian Restaurant in the West End today.

To Liza and Ikhram,the present caretaker and the operator of the Satay House,this is what I have to say:

'Mana-mana organisasi yang dapat bertahan melebihi 30 tahun,ianya layak memerima anugerah Kahzanah Bangsa dan Negara,kerana Restaurant Tuan telah dapat meyakinkan kepada dunia bahawa "Tak Akan Melayu Hilang Didunia"

Al.Fatiha.

Tuan Jaffar Shawal
Pengasas Restaurant Melayu Pertama Di United Kindgom "The Satay House"

Ayah Ku Kawin Lagi - Ayah Ku Pegi Aji.

2009-10-01T16:37:00.009+08:00

It was over 40 years ago ayah decided to remarry again ending his single father status.Remember well the happy go lucky single father bringing up 3 tots children single handedly with a mere Risda clerk pay base on Suffian Report pay scheme.
Its something between $180 a month,I think.

Me,being the eldest to two other sisters was groom with no branded jeans except tailored made long pants by the perfect work of Hj.Manaf of 'AZAM TAILOR' and white shirts from Bee Loon ready made and the shops still at it presence humble beginning site at Lorong Bukit Cina but has expanded over the years all over the country mega mall.
Hj.Manaf has been my tailor since my wee lad days.
My first tailored suit for my England trip was hand made by 'Hj.Manaf The Tailor'.
Attire ethique was strictly observed by ayah.
Hair cream and body talcum powder a must.Off Raya morning with smartly polish Bata shoes goes along well with Hj.Manaf tailored trouses and the white shirt being reused again as my school shirt after Raya.

Suddenly,after joyeous yearly routine on Raya's with ayah,the daily bath personally by him in the morning before off to school,the morning dressing up,the dinner together with my single father stops abruptly and out off a sudden.
Ayah no longer at home with us.
We have to mend life to school all by ourself.
I was too young to understand why ayah left us suddenly.
However,ayah is always there sending us off to school in the morning and evening he will drop by after his daily dose of tennis game at the Bukit Baru Tennis Club but he no longer at home, reading the newspaper while we finishes our school home work.
His personnel home tution given to me on my weak subject also stop.

I was totally lost.
Seeing ayah morning and evening but he is not at home while we were asleep as he used to at night kept a 10 year lad puzzle,keeping together a 7 and 5 years sister together is another sodding tale.
Remember well,the day I confront him asking him why is he no longer with us at home.It was not a riddle but a straight question from a 10 year old lad

'......ayah,....ayah kahwin lagi ya!!!!!!!!!!

He was stunn by the question.
He didnt answer the question.
I presumed the answer was 'Yes',suddenly the pearl drops without invitation.

The rest was history.

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

May 2009 - 7 am

My usual wake up call at 6.30 am.
Normal morning routine procedure like any other morning.Nothing unusual.
Suddenly a call came in at 7am.It was ayah's voice.

I must say,very-very-very-very very rare and unusual for ayah to call his 3 children.Not only to me but both my sisters as well.
Not at 7 am.From my past experience,call that early only an emergency informing death of imediate members of the family.

I remembered his no normal greeting over the phone.
Not a commanding voice and ayah has never been a commanding father.
His advise to children will always begin with a field trip for Rojak and Satay Wak Temu with big glasses of Air Temu to go with ,right up front facing the famous 'A Famosa'.

After eating,straight into the car.
We will be in his old white VW bettle for his prep talk,park some where along,the Famosa or the front sea-side ,me glaring at the open sea of Strait of Malacca,somewhere over there is Sumatra.

My performance,my behavouir,my grade etc.etc.The normal fatherly advise.
Never ever my beloved father cane or shouted at me or shunn or humilate me in public despite me a mischievious lad myself.

Never Ever.

The phone call from ayah that morning stun me.Straight to the point informing me.

'.....'Will.....aku nak pegi Aji tahun ni.'

I was stun !!! the request coming from ayah.
I wanted to sujud sadah right away.

My simple answer was'.....ayah jangan kuatir...biar Mie uruskan.
Right away I was at Tabung Haji HQ,Ampang as the first customer of the day enquiring for my ayah haj trip.Deposited the required amount and total amount which we pool together to see ayah's trip to Haj.this year.

Waiting patiently over the month,the reply from TH management for his application status.Mind you,ayah does not even have a Tabung Haji account and we have to open one for him.Knowing fully well,ayah clerk pay package are all spend on his schooling age children,even though we do not live under one roof together.
All his children needs are well look after and care for.

Monday 28th Sept.2009 bersamaan 7 Shyawal.

Tabung Haji reply :
En.Jalius penerbangan Haji Tuan ialah pada 1 hb.Nov.2009.
Sila laporkan diri di Komplex Tabung Haji Kerana Jaya pada pukul 9 pagi.

I did the sujud saadah after reading the confirmation letter.

Terima Kasih Ya.Allah.

Akhir Sebuah Impian - Simply Classic

2009-09-17T01:25:00.008+08:00

Well check up the whole film in youtube as well

Klassik.......seni itu milik semua.
Bukan milik persendirian.
Kami hargai interlectual property,daya creativitas dan kesempurnaan pembikinan.
Kami kagum.

It was 30 overs years I saw this classic film by Almarhum Benyamin S,late Broery Marantika and Emilia Countessa.Man....the Savoy cinema was pack full for the whole month.The music by Favariote Group remain evergreen. Simply classic for a Form 2 boys then. TV programme was still at it infancy. Love Farok Afero acting always the baddies character.His punch line ' jangan kau minta ubatnya dari aku !!! when his son Broery met an accident which causes Emelia blind.A nostalgic rerun for those in the fities.Those era of 'Casablanca' sort of movie.

Memory dulu kembali lagi
DiHari lebaran Adil Fitri
Bermaafan bersama kita sudahi
Syukur dan Rahmat moga dilimpahi.

To All dear friends bloggers and non bloggers.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA ADIL FITRI.Maaf Zahir dan Batin.

AKU

Kalau sampai waktuku
Ku mau tak seorang kan merayu
Tidak juga kau
Tak perlu sedu sedan itu
Aku ini binatang jalang Dari kumpulannya terbuang
Biar peluru menembus kulitku
Aku tetap meradang menerjang Luka dan bisa kubawa berlari
Berlari Hingga hilang pedih peri
Dan aku akan lebih tidak perduli
Aku mau hidup seribu tahun lagi

Yasmin -The Ledgendary Story Teller.Al-Fatiha

2009-07-26T01:55:00.013+08:00

It was Nov.2005 when I first starts blogging,after been persuaded by my mate Boe,he was blogging under Ricky's Cafe then.
It was the early blogging era,much to my amusement,the stories written in the blog then,were innocent.
I am not a sopo fan thus,my visit to those sopores are limited.
I dont discuss or rather stayed away from those 'me know all the problems in Malaysia blog' nothing amazed me with what was written on the wall.

It is a fact yasminthestoryteller.blogspot.com was my first blog I followed with Boe's persuasion.
Her words were simple.
A very knowledgeable and a profound blog.
It discuss mainly on her work on films and adverts in progress.
She's jotted down to a precise detail,ample enough for a person like me with no knowledge of the film industry to understood its content.

Her blog was a one-stop-centre between her-fans and her co-worker,corresponding via the comment box.
The respond was fast.No twitters what so ever then,but her assistant were there in split second waiting for instruction on the on going projects or witting teaching her films student about the finer points in film making via internetting.

Amazing women,making use the 'know how' technology rather that 'know who',in making quality pictures.
I followed her blog long enough till I managed to get 5 entrance passes on her very first premier and much controversial film'SEPET'.
Ted,one of her pupils managed to pull me through.I pass on the ticket as a marriage present to my nephew Ariff,Lin and both my girls Nana and Aliah.It was before Adam was born.

I was active and a regular to her blog.
You would notice some of my early writing was a reflection of her blog.
Comments made by some, sometime were off the line and sensitive.
Come from a multi ethnic society,the religion issues were at stake but she played her critics down well.
Her films leads to much controversial in a conservertive society of ours,
but I must say ,she's a class of her own.Her message clearly understood.

A pace setter,an inspirational for the new breeds,a phlithropist and a trend setter on her own right.
She's take criticism in strike and able to defence her work inteligently and diligently.There was once I propose to her,

'....mum,you should be a Senator by now,incharge of our Culture and Art Ministry.Your place is at Dewan Negara...'in one of the comment box.
nahhh...she's not instrested.

She was much into her work with passion and articulation.
Be it the PETRONAS Raya's,CNY or Depavali or X'mas advert,she delivered it with perfection and in harmony refelecting the multi ethnic preception of
'what Malaysia is' instead of 'Malaysia where?? !!!!

They didn't teach that in any Malay film production do they?
Love and devotion for Film making - As she once said in her blog in 2006

'we don't need "ART" for a few.
we don't need "Education" for a few.
and we don't need "Freedom" for a few.

True to her words,Art is an Education,art shapes a person inner feeling and art is a social tool to instill love for human mankind as was projected through her work, translating human desire to Love,Peace and Tranquality.

Her messeage was simple ie. ...........BE GOOD HUMAN !!

Moga Allah memberkati usaha mu Yasmin !!.Amin

7 das tembakan ke udara. !!!!!!!!!!!

hormat Panglima.........hormat.

Suara mu merdu,

yeap......they do have the abilities,Counselor Tuan Hj. !!! Here's the NEWS. Fast decision .... YAA? Very wise indeed.

See how agressive the new generation could be YAA ?

This is what the legal terminology the 'Inquistorial Legal System' I reckon.
Another appeal I wonder ?
Could you unshackle the schackles Yang Arif ?
All the Law student at all Law Faculty is observing the decision YAA !!

Another legal question Yang Arif?
Can the monach be impreach for wrongful decison made in his official duty.
Yes,as at it is now ,the answer is 'NO' according to our law.

BUT,Yang Arif,what if in the future, the err is so grave while executing His Mejestic official duty and it caused a great hardship to the citizen?
Probably,a new obitar on such an issue need to be address for future reference,YAA.

If,and only if the law said other wise,what would the remedy be?
For acedemic reasoning,history been refresh
King Edward V111 abdicate his throne for the love of Mrs.Wallis Simpson.
A gentlemen act indeed.

You the Wise one YAA.

I recieved a suprising mail containing some probably trail exam paper of our STPM boys.I have to edit the identity of the candidate and the good school from being drag to a major issue.
It was a while ago I wrote a short sinopsis on the topic.Heres the link

However,let me remind you the answer script does not come from my former alma,but that doesn't means there is none on the discovery channel !!
Be aware of that,Cikgu pleased !!

I am speechless,stunt by the write up answer script.
Yes,it was hilarious.
Probably,the exam was held on the April Fool's Day.
I leave it to the benefit of the doubt.
The exam paper was Sejarah (History).

The Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia(STPM) or HSC/STP during my days was the last bastallion before one enroll to a university or start a working adult life.
The paper consist of 2 paper.
Sejarah 2,that is History of Asia Tenggara ,Jepun and India and History 4 consists of Sejarah Islam dan Sejarah Islam di Malaysia or a student could opt.for Sejarah 3 thats European History.

A student has to pass both paper with a minimum C to obtain a principle pass.

Go ahead have a good laugh.
This is a real answer script from our Sixth Form boys back home down south.
As far as I could recall,getting a place in the Sixth Form in a fully govenment school are based on the over all SPM examination.and a student must perform reasonably well to be selected to be in the Sith Form.

But....how come there's an odd one in the class ?
I find it amusing and thought provoking.
Check,Recheck or rebounce.

Take it as a good rememberence of the yester years I reckon.
Me,I'm no perfect on my examination answer either.

For much better viewing,view with Picasa

What !!!!!!!! Name a school after a Chief Clan !!!!!

2009-04-26T08:51:00.010+08:00

I wonder whether naming a school after our fore father does bring good to our children.
Read the news.

Is Mr.Yap, a real philatrophist or only a story of from rag to riches?

Why barking at the wrong tree, Mr.Ong?

Its a irrelevent issue.

Journey of Brother and Sister Part 1

2009-03-10T23:42:00.017+08:00

Women of Substance by Barbara Taylor Bradford.It was a while back I read this emotional classic.A poor country girl,unfortunate circumstances fleed to big city London and make it good.
I am not a book reviewer neither my intention to write a sinopsis about the novel or films.Yes,it was also a hit tv series.Worth checking it out.I am sure a few pearl drops would do us good.

My,thought came running on Emma,the main character in the Jane Austen classic,
the 18th.centuary romantic novelist of the 'Pride and Prejudis' and 'Emma'.Those two classic would be a must in-cart for those into the literature.

Co-incidently the name reminds me of my youngest sister Emma in the land of white Dove.She's my most loveable sister of the two other sister of mine.
Her journey to London,England begins way back in 1983 in the pretext of studying.Study she did.I was still at my 2nd.year in the Poly then,we took the flight together on Thai Airways via Bangkok transiting.

Within a nick of a time,believe me we almost missed the flight,while in transitting .

Here's the story.

It was Emma's maiden,flight to anywhere.It was the furthest she's been,from a sleepy hollow Malacca.

At Subang International Airport,I met a dear friend of mine Zaini,she's was based in Bangkok,a stewardess with The Royal Saudi Airline.
She invited us to her apartment in down town Bangkok,knowing we has a few couple of hours before taking the connecting flight to London,Heathrow.

Zaini,gave us a good meal and a proper scrub on my hair by a Malaysian hair sylist in Bangkok.Talking about hair ,you bet mine that scruffy and weird long.Zaini insist that I had my hair cut.I obliged to her request.The visit to the saloon does do me an instant reformation.

Thanks Zai!!!I remember and cherish that!!
She send us back to the airport on time and I still have an hour or so before depart.I check in straight away and linger around at the transit lounge together with Emma.
I was so careless for not being prompt on the time,coz'at that particular era I do not own a watch.Well,it was not hip to wear a wrist watch,such was a hippy altitude then.

I was so into linggering at the transit lounge,I didn't notice or hear,our names was call out on the public announcement.It was merely 5 minutes before the flight take off,then I realised we had missed the flight.
We straight away dash to the entrance gate to catch the flight.
Mind you,the airport in the 80's were still in it manual stage.
One has to embark on the runways,a bus would take us to the desginate plane,but mine,I was so sure the plane to Heathrow was the one I saw at the entrance were already moving.
We make a dash to the runway.Me waving and screaming like a damm fool!!to the flight captain,I could see the captains cockpit from a distance,begging him to stop the plane.

One kind hearted ground staff,managed to radio the captain and after a few interception the moving plane,stilt for us.We board the plane in split second.
When we board the whole passenger in the plane did that stared look on both of us,probably,questioning mentally,how on earth those two 'wogs' managed to board the plane?

It was a smooth ride after the incident but upon safely arrived at Heathrow after the back breaking journey and another incident at the Immigration counter.!!

Indeed,it was the begining of a journey on the road of no return....!!

'The God Father' - Exemption Clause

2009-03-06T16:20:00.008+08:00

I pick this bits and pieces quite a while ago,when I first started blogging.

It's 'looks' like a rule,sound like 'the' ruled and 'executed' by the rules.

*****Don Tomasino to Don Carlone :

deep husky voice:'...hey Mike!!! theres to many evil in this world!!'

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

1.I don't use my blog as a space to rant about things I can't handle in real life, or to attack, retaliate or hit out at someone I know personally with whom I can't do so in person.

2.I believe if you can't face up to reality, don't create an alternate reality just so you can be boss in your little corner of cyberspace. What prompted me to write this now? Simply, I witnessed a couple of people who used their blogs as an extension to an argument they had otherwise relinquished in real life. In reality, they said they had spoken their piece and was done with it.

3.In the blogosphere, it seems they aren't actually done with it yet. Too often people use blogs to make themselves out to be the victims in an argument. Last month, there was a similar incident where, again, the person went on her blog and ranted about how she had been wronged.

4.Like I said, if you can't face up to reality, don't use an alternate one to validate youself. It's dangerous to live in an unreal environment and think that the response you get in that space is somehow valid. Your readers and commentors don't know you personally; the only side of you they see is what they read on your blog. Some commentors can be dangerous too. "Oh, don't worry, I've never met you but you feel like an old friend to me, and I know you're not that kind of person."

5.I think ignorant comments like this do not help the delusioned blogger. If you've never met the person, then you've never met that person. Don't think that you know them just by their online persona, because nine out of ten times, people's online personae are the complete opposite of who they really are.

6.It's also dangerous because things become one-sided and no one really knows the truth except to rely on the blogger's version of it. And what's worse is when some bloggers decide to name the people they're ranting against. Then you're involving a person's reputation and if your story is half-true or fictitious (as most of these rants are anyway), you could be held accountable for defamation.

7.My rule in blogging is simple. If I can't handle it in real life, then I don't blog about it. What's the point? What good would it really do? Isn't it akin to talking to myself? If I have a problem with someone, I duke it out person to person, face to face. I admit, I've tried out a bitching space before, but I got tired of it because my problems didn't really go away, and nothing felt like it had any closure.

8.And then there are those who confuse being outspoken with being rude and obnoxious. Hell no, they're not one and the same.

9.Bitching is not being outspoken. It's just angry, pointless and unconstructive ranting. Unless, of course, it's not personal and/or to parody an issue or something.

Hail to Bloggers!!!

Pang Chin Hock v PP - An Appeal to Federal Court.

2009-03-05T23:45:00.006+08:00

PHANG CHIN HOCK V. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR

FEDERAL COURT [KUALA LUMPUR]
SUFFIAN LP, J, WAN SULEIMAN, FJ, SYED OTHMAN, FJ
[CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 27 OF 1977]
21 AUGUST 1979
Order accordingly.

JUDGMENT

Suffian LP (delivering the judgment of the Court):

In this security case tried in accordance with the Essential (Security Cases) Regulations, 1975, ("the regulations"), the appellant was convicted of the offence of unlawful possession of six rounds of ammunition contrary to s. 57(1)(b) of the Internal Security Act, 1960, and sentenced to death.

We dismissed the appeal and now give our reasons.

First, it was said in effect that the conviction was against the weight of evidence. We were of the opinion that there was ample evidence to justify the conviction and that the learned trial Judge was right in concluding on the evidence that the defence had not thrown any doubt on the case for the prosecution.

Secondly, arguments were raised based on the Constitution. Three points were made.

It was said first that in view of Art. 4(1) of the Constitution which reads:

4. (1) This Constitution is the supreme law of the Federation and any law passed after Merdeka Day which is inconsistent with this Constitution shall, to the extent of the inconsistency, be void." and of the definition of "law" and "federal law" in Art. 160(1) which includes "any Act of Parliament" any Act of Parliament which amends the Constitution, as is allowed by Art. 159, is valid only if consistent with the Constitution, and that any provision in it, which is so inconsistent, is, to the extent of the inconsistency, void.

Secondly and alternatively, it was said that even if amendments made by Parliament in accordance with Art. 159 may be inconsistent with existing provisions of the Constitution, nevertheless the Court should read into the Constitution implied limitations on power of Parliament to destroy the "basic structure" of the Constitution, which, it was submitted, includes the following features:

(a) supremacy of the Constitution;

(b) constitutional monarchy;

(c) that the religion of the Federation shall be Islam and that other religions may be practised in harmony;

(d) separation of the powers of the three branches of Government; and

(e) the federal character of the Constitution.

This list may be compared with the features of the basic structure of the Indian Constitution given at p. 165 by Sikri CJ in
Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala
[1973] SCR Supp. 1 AIR [1973] SC 1461 as follows:

(a) Supremacy of the Constitution;

(b) Republican and Democratic form of Government;

(c) Secular character of the Constitution;

(d) Separation of powers between Legislature, Executive and Judiciary; and

(e) Federal character of the Constitution.

Thirdly, even if the Emergency (Essential Powers) Act, 1979 ("Act 216") is valid, ss. 2(4), 9(3) and 12 thereof are void as they destroy the basic structure of the Constitution.

Thus there are three issues here.

First, do Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution?

Secondly, if Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution, do they have power to make amendments that destroy the basic structure of the Constitution?

Thirdly, have ss. 2(4), 9(3) and 12 of Act 216 destroyed the basic structure of the Constitution and are they therefore void?

To summarise, our answers to the three issues raised are:

1. Parliament have power to make constitutional amendments that are inconsistent with the Constitution.

2. Parliament may amend the Constitution in any way they think fit, provided they comply with all the conditions precedent and subsequent regarding manner and form prescribed by the Constitution itself and it is unnecessary for us to say whether or not Parliament's power of constitutional amendment extends to destroying the basic structure of the Constitution.

3. Act 216 is constitutional. Whatever may be the features of the basic structure of the Constitution, none of the constitutional amendments complained of and none of the impugned provisions of Act 216 have destroyed the basic structure of the Constitution.

Order accordingly.

Persoalan Utama penhujahan YAA-YAA,

1.Boleh kah Perlembagaan Malaysia dirombak oleh Parliament?

2.Dirombak ke arah mana?

3.Sekiranya boleh apakah syarat-syarat dan sekatan-sekatannya?

4.Apa kah rangka utama ie.basic structure Perlembagaan kita?

We Are Trully Malaysian here and Forever.

2009-03-05T11:06:00.009+08:00

hmmmmmm.........I pick it up from here.

1. We are a unique nation filled with beautiful and caring people.

2. We loved and respected our past and present leaders then.

3. We were proud of our football, hockey and badminton teams who brought us joy, pride and a Malaysia Bersatu!

4. We waved excitedly and proudly when our Sultans and Agung drove past on the roads.

5. We sang Negara Ku with pride and gusto at Stadiums more so when the team was winnning but 10 decibels louder when our Agong came in the rain and sat at Stadium Merdeka to cheer with the rakyat.

6. We obeyed the law, respected the Police and was fiercely patriotic especially against our brothers in Singapore!

7. Our children schooled together, games together, ate together and kept friendship bonds thru many school reunions , hari raya's, Chinese new year, deepavali and Xmas... yummy food..

8.We knew our friends mothers, family and ran away when we saw their fathers come home...

9. We had a Malaysia Bersatu, where is it now...?

10. we all know the answer, corruption, racial emotions, party politics, bad governance from all leaders and authorities, a lack of concern for the man on the street despite all the drama and hype on TV and papers but yet NO actual genuine concern. They called it photo opportunity or party gimmick to please the crowd.

11. Wahai leaders, are you listening? Pray tell me then, do you knnow the price of a kilo of rice, of red chili, of ikan kembong or jenahak? When was the last time dear YAB/TB did you drive personally to fill up petrol or buy gardenia bread froma 7-11?

12. Go back to rukun negara, barisan kita and you will find Malaysia Kita again.

Pokok Ipoh adalah sejenis tumbuhan yang terdapat di hutan Malaysia serta di negara-negara ASEAN yang lain. Nama sainsnya Antiaris toxicaria Lesch.
Pokok Ipoh mempunyai getah beracun yang digunakan sebagai racun untuk hujung sumpitan orang asli. Racun ini bertindak dengan serta-merta dan akan membunuh mangsa yang terkena sumpitan. Untuk mengelakkan keracunan kepada pemburu, bahagian daging pada mangsa perburuan akan dipotong dan dibuang. Ciri-ciri daun pokok Ipoh ini ialah hujung daunnya berbentuk tirus,oblong elliptik,pangkal daun berbentuk bulat. Secara umumnya daun pokok ini adalah nipis.

I took a walk to the Ibu Thein Memorial Muzeum while I was in Jakarta 2 weeks ago.
To those whom does not know who Ibu Thein is,well....she's meet her lord.
She was the Indonesian first lady.The well fed first lady.

Stepping into the gallery,a gallery full with presents, presented to her while she was the first lady.
My oh my......the collection whooophs..wow..amazing collection!!
There is this one massive big huge tree I reckon its Meranti,chengal,Jati a size of a badminton court,a height a guess of at least 50 feet or more being on display.
The very least the age of the tree is 200 years old.
The amazing thing is the tree was dug so deep and it roots are still hanging and left dry for the artistic effect.

The tree branches are left to natural dried.
The miracle of the tree is, someone or rather a group of master craftmen were commission to crave the epic of Ramayana and Mahabrata on the tree trunk.
Yes....full story epic of the Hindu epic story on a tree trunk varnish to absolute perfect craft and presented to the late Ibu Thein as a present for X'mas.

Wow....stepping out of the gallary,reminds me of my beloved ibu's firm advised on my first day at school in 1966.

Wir..,"didunia ini tidak ada tempat untuk orang yang tidak bersekolah".

The master craft who crafted that piece of epic,did really goes to school,
and school he does and no 'University' in this world would dare to challenge his ability of his skills,patience,preserverence,determination on his mastercraftmenship.

But what wonder me most is why cut down a tree to give the first lady a X'mas present????

Was it an ego trip?
The taker would gladly accepts it!
It would be not polite not to accept a present given but I am sure the tree hurts when his trunk was curved for public exhibit.

Might be the tree soul would cried out loud,

'.......look at me,I'm no fool no more than you do?

Possibility to put up a mamak rojak stall beneath the tree with lot's of sotong and cendul pulut, eeek.......!!!
Will be queing together with Ipoh's amoi.
Ayo...ma!! Ipoh mali,ma!! manyak cantik lol!!

That's rakyat's staple diet we are talking about,man!!!!!!!.

I say...Free Birdddddddd.....What say you!!

Apa yang menjadi tanda tanya bagi saya ialah semasa mereka berinteraksi di udara,menyampaikan dan mempersembahkan kepada kami,mereka berinteraksi tanpa script.
Ianya dioleh secara live and natural,tanpa sebarang unsur pencemaran Bahasa baik didalam Bahasa English mahupun Bahasa Melayu,tidak saperti apa yang terdapat diprogram sekarang adakalanya pencemaran Bahasa ditahap kritikal.
Ianya berlaku disemua program baik distation swasta,lebih-lebih lagi diradio swasta.
Ada-kala sehingga ketahap 'meluat' bila mendengarnya.

Jasa-jasa mu dikenang.Bak kata pujangga kita P.Ramlee 'Tak mugkin dapat dipisahkan antara irama dan lagu'

Hmmm........yes sir,
he sure does, together with his generation he does move us in the right direction.He was one of the early birds in Radio broadcasting during the Beatles hip era via his husky golden voice he taught us those 'solok' guys the proper English,right pronuncation,proper intonation plus the music of Nat King Cole to Bee Gees 'Staying Alive'.He done us proud I am sure his other half and children is dammed proud of his modest achievement.

Very well indeed,I patiencely waits for his weekly radio show every Sunday precisely at 10am for 2 hours.That old faithful A4 battery operated 'Singer' we had at home is mine for that particular hour.Me at that particular hour will be cleaning my white canvass 'Bata' shoes,yeap school the next day,has to be neat and tidy for Monday assembly or else, I get the best 2 or if it's my unlucky day it will be the best 4 from Mr.Kumara Dass at the Cadet Room.
Pick and choose the ammo,he surely do have an ample collection of yessss....'CANES ' I mean,yeap...the one which whack our backside when we had a discipline problems,it landed on me a few times.
Sure do learn my lesson well.

He taught us English via his chats in the radio.
New words and proper grammer usage.I pick it from him.
Listening tentatively to his husky voice every Sunday,the'Kee Huat Radio Show' he was the show host and it did survived a couple of seasons till I am able to write a love letter.

Yes, I learn to write my ever first love letter by listening to his show.
It was the S.W.A.K and the Jeremy era.The sweet face of the main child actor whom ran off with his girlfriend to Venice......alah I forgotten his name.I think it was Mark ...something!It was before Linda Blair and her Excoist mania.
That film really inspire Bollywood to produce another block buster movie of that era"Bobby". Not to mention Hawaii 5-o with that handsome looking Steve Megarrat and his assistent Danny or weekly sit-com 'The Brady Bunch' and that handsome David Cassidy on 'The Partridge Family'.

Me,a 'solok ' guy watching that show? Yes indeed.....!!!
Will be arguing with my sibs if the wrestling programme is on.I know that is not my t.v day then.One t.v for a couple of family to share.
That was how is was then!
Am I bragging about the post independence socio climate?
No not at all,but by back tracking, that is how we learned to sort our present. Anybody who doesn't? so be it!

Why did I write this yeh?
I am not too sure in pronouncing either 'TOKOK or Tokoh'?
That what his blogspot name is!!
Yes he is a Mister to me,
He is no other less our former RTM Blue Network DJ Sir Patrick Teoh.

To me Tokok means rambling, but, you sir... might have thought of probably the manglish meaning ie.'talk-cork' ie. idle conversation.
Tokoh is personality which definately, you has that.
You....a 'Tokoh' to me and a few others of my batch sir...... I can be sure of that!
You sir,you has that charm, inspiring our generation with those soft melody,
yeah... the clean cut sound, no distortion compared to todays MIDI gadget which most of todays musician used.With the aid of 'Cake Walk' a dump fool could sell his CD's at any back lane an claim it original....'inhouse made' lah brother!!!I am talking where music is played in a group.A joint effort of a team producing quality sound.Quality showmanship and quality master piece.There is a diffrence between 'evergreen and classic'.Stairsway to Heaven is classic but Green Grass of Home is evergreen.So do Carmilla by Ebiet that is classic and may more.
I know ...is not rock and roll but something of Lobo or Neil Diamond or Carpenters is 'ok' to our big brother.
Yes, I know our Big Bro is a bit of pain in the ass at times.
Back then, yes I know big bro is watching us.
I remember our big bro has a rubber stamp on Rod Steward 'Maggie Mae' or Stairsways To Heaven' Definate no play air time.
I dont understand why they censor 'The Revolvers'.They were great, instead every sunday we has to listen to the tune Beautiful Sunday,I forgoten the group name.
I am sure if our Big Bro then gave a lee way to our local group air time,I am positively a sure our Artist performersare as good as our regional counter part if not better.They even gave 'Heavy Machine' a hard time.To jazz freak like me 'NO' so call music of jazz in the air time.
Instead we listen to 'Seriosa' a version of todays Pavarroti?in TV2.

We are the by product of what we see,feel,listen and THINK!
No wonder it take ages for us to pick up the pieces?
Well......that was the rules back then.
Your comand of elementary English without any accent,straight and grammatically correct improved our written weekly composition tremendeosly.

During my High School tenure together with Nuruddin, we would sneak to a corner of the hostel block to listen to your programme tentatively.
Believe me sir,Nuruddin is another 'Solok' guy, his solok is much further then my 'solok',he is from Bukit Senggeh somewhere near Selandar our minister of 'Human Resources' constituency.
Belief me this guy he specks the 'Nogori English',but man...his written English is explict,belief me..... he got an A1 for English 121 of MCE 1976.
How do we 'The Solok Guys' pick up the language?
Simple answer...
......by tuning to your radio programme.
Its amazing the radio!! it teaches us to be an avid listerner not a watcher as tv does or what ever gadget we have now.
From the portable battery operated size A4 we diguest your word.
Yes sir the 'Solok Guys' made it,by learning how to learn.

Together with your generation of broadcaster namely Pak Chik Sulaiman Alias,Pak Chik Yahaya Long Chik,Kakak Rubiah Lubis,Abang Nornikman Dadameah,Pak Chik Helan Abu and of course our mum Auntie Faridah Merican,Auntie Constant Haslam,we learn the correct basis English,useage,pronunciation,expression using the correct process of 'Learning how to Learn' method that is 'Shut Up and Listen'

That is how we were taught.
We learn by listening and able listener, we are sir!
Thanks to your team back in the late 60's and early 70's era sir.
I commend you the very least an AMN to our YDPA,sir.
May god protects you and your family and those who does great contribution to the nation,be it DJ's,script writers,programme producers,audio technician,buffer,LP's runner at the Wisma Angkasapuri etc,etc.
Your positive contribution being part of nation building goes notice sir.

Bravo to all the RTM'S unsung heroes.

My dear Aida & Aidil,

Apa tanda hari nak petang,
Anak merbah terciap-ciap,
Apa tanda cinta nak datang,
Darah didada girap-gemirap.

Sembah takzim pembuka diri,
Tegahnya adat tamaddun berzaman,
Selamat menjalani Putri sehari,
Moga Allah berkati sepanjang perjalanan.

Ikan keli masak lemak,
Ikan sembilang digoreng lada,
Pesan emak kepada anak,
kalau tidur mesti waspada.

Pukul satu makan,
Pukul dua tidur,
Kalau dua-dua dah berkenaan,
Tak siapa pun boleh masok campur

Malam-malam dengar suling,
Suling merdu dari bambu,
Kalau nak kena pusing-pusing
Bila pusing makin jambu

Lagu reggea memang sedap,
Sedap lagi Melayu Asli,
Kalau ada yang menggendap,
Katakan saja 'For Private Viewing Only'.

Selamat Menjalani Kehidupan Yang Sebenar.

'Man is the General, Women is the Major,
Hubby make General decision and Wife makes The Major Decision'

Tahniah.

Mohd Aidil dan Cpt.(Dr)Nur Aida

Al-Fatiha Papa Pok Teh Mohd Idris Hj.Abdullah

2009-02-11T02:12:00.009+08:00

A man with highest man of principle,absolute trustworthly gentleman and firm in executing duties.

That is Pok Teh,ibu's younger brother,passed away at a ripe age of 70,on Monday 2th.Febuary 2009 at 12.30noon.
Papa has been staying with ibu since apak pass away 5 years ago.
Extreamly fond of all his sisters,Mak Nyah,Ibu and ibu Chik.
Remain a bachelor till death.As faith has taken it toll,his sudden death was a surprise to all of us in the family.

It was a long week-end hols due to Hari Wilayah Persekutuan.Most of my aunt and uncle came back to Malacca.All have a weekend home in Melaka,thus,that very Monday all of us was having breakfast together at a local stall and depart back to KL after breakfast.
He was his usual self,nothing strange shown.
Always with his cup of Milo and Roti Canai and his medication prescripe after breakfast.
However,he decided to finish a full plate of Kueh Teiow Gorang that wonderful morning together with Ibu Chik,Bak,Emi and family.plus Ibu.
It was a long depart breakfast table and his last.

We depart for KL,arriving Bangi,ibu call informing of the death.
Innalillahhirajiuun.
Turn back for Melaka right away.

Papa Pok Teh,was with the Singapore Police Force in late 50's.
A rank and file officer.The youngest Sargeant ever been promoted to the post and later absorbed to the Inspector and upon medical board retirement recommendation he was an ASP with the Singapore Police Force.
Retired on medical board recommendation in 1970.
I was disciplined brought up by him at home.
A stern teacher.
An English master,which of course shows his mark in his writing.
Love his nephews and neices like his own children.

Papa's credential indeed a colorful one.
It was from him I tasted my first rotan.
My very first lesson of the Penal Code and question of law.
He would narrate to me the Penal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code in a very precision and detail.
I was merely in my secoundary school days back in the 70's listening his oral narration of Singapore Internal Affairs.
The bricking between Malaysia and Singapore.
The sweeping of Singapore kongsi Gelap in the 60's.
The political espoinage.
Off course he was a S.B with the Singapore Police and answerable only to'THE BOSS'.

The story of General Albar,T.S Pak Samad,Ahmad Bostaman,Azahari etc.etc.
It was told on first account to me.
Knowing Papa Pok Teh,his seriousness and no nonsense approach I am assure the stories relate to me were real and indeed a first hand historical dvelopment of post Malaya political history.
Time given,Insyallah,I will document it in Memoir Note of the 'Unsung Hero Tales from the South'

He was a Law lecturer at the Singapore Police Training School.
He was so good at law and was recommanded by the Attoney General at the time,the late Almarhum Tan Sri Ahmad Ibrahim to be a lecture on Criminal Law at the University Malaya in Singapore but was turn down by the Dean of the Faculty because Papa Pok Teh do not have a law degree.

For being a P.O for the crown,his examplary service was noted by then the High Court Judge an later the Chief Justice for Singapore Rt.Hon.Wee Chong Jin with a gold coin which he proudly shows me when I was still a wee lad.

Running after gangsters in Singapore then was a real high profile drama.
The street cleaning of Singapore against graft is well noted in the 60's.
The gruelsome murder photos was shown to me when I was a wee lad and it was real dramatic murders.
As a college of his I meet in Mekah while performing my haj told me,
'...no body could escape from Idris cross examine introgation and I mean terror introgation'.

His articulate legal writing still stands today.
His neatness in dressing up, represent of the old school of 'The Officer and a Gentleman'.Not even a foul word would come from him even when he is extreamly angry.

They never groom those types of ole'good esquire any more.
He died a simple man,well taken cared by The Family,leaving behind his Pension book,a packet of Gudang Garam Mild,medication prescript, and a set of Britainica Encyclopiedia,read it cover to cover.

Al.Fatiha.Papa Pok Teh Mohd Idris Hj.Abdullah.

Political Satire.

Karpal is a cow milk seller(susu lembu).. Anwar promised to extend his business, by playing with Karpal cows and Karpal's competitor's cow. Now, Anwar couldn't bring any more cows, and 1 of Karpal's cow ran away because it didn't like being fucked from behind by Anwar.. so, the cowman got angry, and asked the backsideman to buzz off.

Then, Anwar went to the mamak cendol(KJ) and complain. The mamak cendol actually sent Anwar to the cowman because he wanted uninterrupted supply of milk(power) for his cendol business.

The cendolman then employed his thugs(pemuda UMNO) to call for the end of Karpal business(UMNO Youth calls for the end of Karpal's citizenship).. so, we will all see what happens next.

As for the Susu Lembu seller and the Kings dispute, that one from the old times... old story, it has nothing to do with the backside man and the Mamak Cendol.

Quite..... Pleased you are in a Library !!

2009-01-24T16:05:00.008+08:00

Since my wee lad years,quite often I used The Dewan Hang Tuah public library in my home town.I remember having to fork out $6.00 fine for late return of a book I borrowed.It was adventure of Sinbad,if I'm not mistaken.

It was a big sum for a 13 years old lad.Some how I managed.
The Dewan Hang Tuah state library employed 2 full time librarian.
I couldn't recall their name,but one a Chinese serve as the librarian and coordinates the in and out activities of patrons and an Indian man acts as a clerk.

One must be aware it was an era where Charted Librarianship Programme was unheard of in my little sleepy hollow town,Malacca.
Library service was done manually,micro chips was much later introduced in the library around 1975.
Most search was done via cataloge card stock at one corner of the library.

Tempang,the Chinaman,as he was known to us was the librarian whom not only enforces the law to patron to keep quite but he ensure no nonsense in his library,such as eating chewing gum,which we would cheekly stick it underneath the reading table out of mischievous act.Anybody caught,redhanded a sistem of fine of 10 cents and subsequently 3 times panelty will be remove from librarian membership.
Such was the dracanion law introduce wee back then.

Netherless,we digest,we quest and meet new social friends of our age group.
And later,we march to Cafe 101 or Snowwhite for a cokefloat,if only the federal minor scholarship was credited in time.
It was a era of no browsing the google and whack-tech gizmo.

Library etiquette was instill in us, since we were lad.
As far as I could remember,no torn pages on most books I borrowed from the library. Some of it is really out of date and published circa 1940.
Netherless we enjoyed the book or rather the trip of the library becaused I am certain 99.9% of homes then, do not have a library at home.
One would be lucky to find daily newspaper,either Utusan,Berita or if its a English specking home there would be NST.At home it was Utusan Melayu in JAWI which arwah Tok Wak bought daily and the only source of news back then.
Nevetheless,I diguest the news in Jawi.

I left home town, quest for adventure.
During my student days in London,the library vist and usage is a must and frequent.
It was at the polytech library which open my neive eyes the quest of KNOWLEDGE grew.
The condusive enviroment,the new ways of library research plus the content in the library facinates me.
I would escape the cold and hide myself at one corner,not nessary studying but jes to brows the Guardian,Daily Telegraf,The Times or even the New York Post to escape the cold.

Library research was still at it infancy.Still uses the micro-negetive slide.Cataloging was still in card-boxes but....
The library ethiques are maintain.Thats is,Quite Pleased'!

The Maryleborne Library along the Maryleborne Rd., where Karl Marx wrote his bible the 'DAS KAPITAL'
was my hide away when serious studying needed,particularly during exam fever.
The chairs and tables where Karl Marx sat were mark and noted by the Library administrative and I am sure it is still there.
The Maryleborne Library is where I borrowed most of the old Blues collection,ie.the rare copies of Muddy Waters,TJ Hooker,Slim Walter,etc LP's and retape it for my personnel collection which I still have it till this day and were stack away in my attic.
Its capacity daily are mostly 3/4 full,but one couldn't hear a word of wishper if one in there.In other words is Silence Pleased, You are In the Library

I venture out at the spacious and classic library of University of London at Goutch Street off Totteham Court Rd.
Its tables arrangement with a study light on each table,facinates me and it is cozy.It was here I wanted so much to brows our Salutus Saltin by Hamzah Fansuri.
I couldn't find it but the trip was memoriable one cause it expands my horizan of what a University library should be like.
It was still the no goggle search era but the library ethic shows what scholar are made of.'
They are made of Libraries where they frequent.

Many more libraries I venture to,University of Bologne,Italy,University of Soubourn in Paris,University of Leiden,Holland etc etc.
Entering any one of it one of them, one would feel the scholalistic air a breath.
The etiquette maintain 'QUITE PLEASED YOUR ARE IN A LIBRARY'

I am a frequent user of both our national university library.
Both are law libraries.A faculty of Law name after him and the other a library.
Both libraries derives from a same source ,highly scholar and both libraries are name after him for his contribution in society and the development of Malaysian Legal System particularlly the development of Shariah laws.
The name of the late Tan Sri Ahmad Ibrahim stands tall in the league of nations.

For years I have observed law student of the university concerned.
Lame atitude towards library usage.
Or was is the table arrangement of 4 chairs in one table ,I'm not too sure.which caused the problem.When 4 young sod meets what other topic of the day would they discuss.I'm not too sure.

I am not disputing those children are bright enough to be in a Law library but I notice and at time it gets to my nerve the amount of chatting and distraction in the LAW library.
Yes,they are bright enough to study law,(I assume they are law students)but scholistic approach needed to be introduce to those kids.
Rules are to be observe,etiquette are to be uphold while in a library as so that one could feel one are in a scholistic institution.

Unrelated discussion could be done outside the corum.
Case book are not to be torn.
Library nuisence must be stop.
After all they are our future guidence of the law.
They are supposed to guide us.
If small trivial matter could not be implant in their thick skull,thus the public money spend is a waste.
Altitude in the Library must be observe and uphold.

Need it be, the Librarian must be like my childhood librarian,Si Tempang,
when he a approches to our table, limping,it means,someone is in trouble.........!!!!

How You Groom Your Children Is Your Choise!! BUT....

2009-01-10T15:58:00.008+08:00

I couldn't resist but to continued to blog of what I feel in my heart.

Recently,one of my nephew did very well indeed along with other 100,000(I think) our Malaysian children whom score straight 'A' in their UPSR exam.
He was selected to one of the most prestige elite grooming school in my home town Malacca.
There was other 2 nephews and a niece whom graduated from the College when the college just open its doors to Malaysian children back in early 90's

All three have already graduate and work and the niece is already a Cpt.(Dr)with our ATM Medical Corp.
Thanks to the philotropist and his team whom started the college and for giving all able young sod a FREE good education while they was there.
All three jes recently embark into a career path.

May Allah protects all of you three,Aki,Aida and Reza.hmmmmm......terus.

The college aim is to produce a well rounded future Malaysian corporate figure.
Wallah yaalam.(go ahead and for haven sake boys!!! go with God)

But.....today I recieve a news, another nephew got a place.
Great ....but the fees for Form 1 registration is a galloping amount of $21,000.00, bill to his parents.
What!!!!!!!!holly cow!!!!!son of the gun!!!!

Well,I thought Sek.Alam Shah,Sri Putri at PutraJaya and many more public funded full boarding school is also able to produce talented Malaysian too.And its is FREE!!!

If you have $21,000,from my six sense,it is wiser to sponsor 5 ophan of your son age(yatim piatu)school them,feed them and teach them.
I am sure Sekolah Alam Shah and others do have bright ophan children whom we could look after.Sponsor them all till they complete their education.
I'm sure they will be gratefull and thankful for your contribution.

Learn !! from him

Your son and daughters will have a pure and genuine net working when he/she embark on future plans.Insyallah.
Dont be self centred and selfish invidual but be truthful.
It is danger to play with image and image maker.
If you have do it,do solely for God sake and not for an 'ego ride'.

All the other 3 was given a scholarship but sad to say the icon couldn't managed to sponsor anymore bright Malaysian or was it too big of an ambition plan when he built the college?
Well,that's life what come around,turns around.

I puzzle at the whopping amount.
I ask myself do we need to pay such a big amount?
Not until I brows at Sir Ken Robinson

My thought still remain puzzle and so many unanswered question came running in my mind after listening to his talk.
What a whoppper!!
The truth is,I dont like all elitist colleges philosophical approached toward streaming lining and compartmentalization of society via education.

Have a deep thought on what you about to listen by Sir Ken Robinson.
The world is about to change.

By the way, my beloved Nana and Alia got a straight 8 'A's' during last PMR exam.
Way to go my gals.......terus.
Both of them was at home and at normal co-ed day school.

Thus,I reckons grades doesn't come with school tags or does it?

Mesjid Cina?
Mesjid Bukit China ada ,mesjid Cina takda.
Whose idea was it?
Is there any mesjid Melayu in Madina?
or anywhere in the world?
If there is one I wanted to go there and performed my Salatul Mesjid 2 rakayat.
Futher,whose money is it going to be build on?.
Thus,after Mesjid Cina then one could apply for Tanah perkuburan Cina Muslim.Solely for Chinese Muslim.
What sort of non sense.
Kubur is kuburlah.
No chinese Muslim kubur or mosque
or Mesjid India,Kubur Indian Muslim!!!!!!bengep!!!!!

oiiiiii..Chinese Muslim,Malay Muslim,Indian Muslim,Mat Saleh Muslim,Jawa Muslim,Boyan Muslim,Madura Muslim,Batak Muslim,and all Muslim of the world fill up Mesjid Wilayah and Mesjid PutraJaya lah.
The saf during the fardu is sad in numbers.
Buck uplah kangkong!!!!!!
Having Mesjid India is problemetic enough administratively with DBKL.
Flighting among traders to find a spot for buisness is normal.
Whose money are they going to built on?
The rakyat's money?
hmmmmmm.......too any agenda hasn't been fulfil,man.
Buck up!

Case 2.

Hj.Juno(not real name),a hard working decent fellow decides to buy a piece of land to built his dream home for his family.All his sweat and life saving.He is the ealry immgrant during economic boom of late 70's.
At that phase in time,life was easy.
Beaucratic procedure was less hussle.
Though he could apply for mycard,he didn't,instead he got myPR as good my card .Great ,good enough.
His children were born here and got their mycard.Bravo.

Come Mamat,the broker for the land owner,approaches Hj.Juno,knowing fully well his dream to purchase a piece of land, at a very reasonable price of RM10,000.00 for 11/4acre.
Its a MCL land which means an Agriculture Malay Reserve land.Find.
Thought Hj.Juno,that is precisely what he wanted for my family,a decent home which are built upon hard work and determination.

Not knowing,the fact of the Land is a Grant besar,which means its a big chalk piece of land of 4 acres subdivide into 3 lots of 2 acres,11/4 and 3/4 acres respectively. Inserted in the grant,is 8 other names as a co joint owner of the piece of land.

In principle Hj.Juno agreed to the sale transaction in inserting his sons name into the grant,knowing fully well he is only a joint co-ownwer of the piece.
But his share of piece is only the 11/4 acre.
Identified verbally by the broker.
That is his piece agreed and paid for.

As a bait,the land broker sweet talk him that 11/4 acre that he purchase could be sub divided further into small plots to built 24 small unit of 3 bedrooms houses for let or for sale.
In others words the smiling Hj.Juno could strike rich.
It will improve his social standing among his tribe that is Jawa!
It is every migrant dreams in a milk and honey dreamland Malaysia.

His shared was further sent to a Land surveyor to draw the plan for sub division,
but if order to built his dreams the sub division needed to be approved from the State authority.
That is where all the problems begans.

1.Yes,he did bought the piece and paid for 1 1/4 acres of land and his name was registed as a joint co-land owner in the land but where is the individual tittle?

2.Is is possible to get a individual title after being surveyed and identified its boundaries and submitted to the State Land office for approval but the consent of all joint land owner in writing and signatory is a preliquisit condition for the individual title to be issued by the PTG.

3.How to identified the existing co-land owner?
Are they still alife?
Do you know them?
Will they give their consent?

Nobody knows where the hell and who they are except the Penghulu of the mukim.
Thus,the aid of the Penghulu is vital only if he agrees to help.
Some penghulu are real son of a bitch.
Menyusahkan rakyat and are part of the land scam which caues manipulation of land fraud.

4.The plot however is legally transact but it is an unethical practice by land brokers to sell land only as joint co-owner to the piece of land because in the long process it creates immediated problems of transfering of lanf tittle to new land owner.
Thus Hj.Juno could not identified precisely which spot is his to built his dream house.All joint land owner has the equal access and equal right on all spot of the piece of land.Where is your precise spot Tuan Hj.?

5.Now Hj.Juno wanted to sell his plot for RM400,000 of MCL land of 1 1/4 acre.
Hj.!!!that is a big sum of money for a problematic piece of land at Sg.Chincin,Tuan.

My advise to Hj.Juno.
Sort the individual title Tuan Hj.
Any buyer comes with 'clean hands 'and
'those who come to equity come with clean hands'.

Money,Money,Money - ABBA.

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world

hmmmmm...been a while since I last blog,non what so ever intrest me at the moment.
Yeap,its another Ramadan,breaking the fast and off course the 'sahur'
Wakie...wakie...time to eat with sambal and ikan asin.
hmmmm.thats the working class food.
Sambal titik ikan asin kurau,the boney parts of it is yummy.
Nothing extra ordinary,just plain and simple rice with sambal would do.

My thought flew away years ago,waking up for 'sahur'with Ricky Lee Jones sexy voice on 'Chuck E In Love'.
Most morning that is the voice I love to hear.
Husky and appealing to me and her guitar playing reminds me of my Gal Aimi's in Melbourne.
How's your guitar playing dear and off course the Ramadan down under.
Aimi's pick up the guitar while waiting for her SPM result 3 years ago.

Ricky Lee Jones acoustic playing is one cool cat.
I wish I could embedded it the lastest of 'Chuck E In Love' but it was not permitted but you could view it via the same page.
Same beautiful voice,sexy and appealing of course.
Yes,she must be same age as me now.

Old hippy never die they just turn new leaves.

2008-04-13T22:12:00.001+08:00

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
UP-DATES 15/4/08
Just on of my lucky days.Went to Istana Budaya this morning for advance reservation on the Saturday show.
Yeap,5 tickets in a row,all in the family.
Out of the blues this CRV Honda park next to mine.I was already at the steps of the main entrance,come a convoy of an elderly with 3 other assistance.I look sharp at the elderly,yeap its him the Mestro.I have him all to myself for a few minutes chating along the steps of the main entrance.
After salam sembah,to Mestro,he gave me two peeek of kisses on the cheek,left and right.

wooops....what a day.My lucky pebbles I supposed.
Mestro must be about 80 now.Did asked him about Mohammad Riskki,the one on vocal in in cd's Shalawat Nabi,weather he is accompanying him.
No acording to him and he told me he meet Mohammad Riskki at a pesentran while he is having a quite comtemplation in life journey and couch him througout for the album.I asked about the Keroncong Mestro Pak Gersang,he smile away.
Of all day I was not able to take a shot coz' I didn't bring along either my digital camera or the hand phone camera either.
I reckon God wants us to meet that way,not the normal fan meeting but a meeting of mind between a respectable murshid and a murid.
God all Knowing.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yeap....el Mestro Pak Idris Sardi in town.
Link here
It been a long time since I last seen him played.It was way back in 1972,on the Proclamation of City of Kuala Lumpur at Panggung Anniversary Lake Garden.
The Mayor then was allahyarham Tan Sri Yackob Latif if I am not mistaken.
Man...!!!I was amased by the playing then.
'Mawar Berduri' and 'Seroja' among the hits those days.

As they say 'old vintage wine' still the best
Am able to pick up violin and able to tune in a few folks songs myself.
Its my third instrument after ,cak-cuk,mandolin,harmonic harp and blues harp,gambus(oud),dendang Jawa and off course the guitar.
Would love to see Emilia Contessa on stage again with him and Pak Idris on keroncong scale.
His latest with Muhammad Riski on vocal tittle 'Idris Sardi dan Jakarta Philhamonic Orkestra Dengan Muhammad Riski' is a 5 star rating.
It put ours to shame.Done by local,arranged by local and played by local.
No need the 'Conductor Orang Bulek Dong?'orang kita bisa!
No wonder the 'Rasa Sayang' issue was swept under the carpet.

Originality and feel mamat!!!!!!!!!
Looking forward for the show,really on Satuardy.

This oldies reminds me of Cathay cinema next to the historic Malacca River.
Big colourful poster and long queue if the film played a box office.
Its adds to the growing up moment for boys and gals plus also grandpa and ma too.

Casablanca was a hit in the early black and white era.
In the early 70's it was shown as cheap matinee at Cathay.
It only cost me 25 cents and no queing hussle.
The Saturday matinee early morning show.
It turn me into into a freaky fan of Humprey Borgart,Warren Betty,Ingrid Bergman,Frank Sinatra,James Dean,the beautiful Italian Queen of films Sopiah Loren hmmm.....mama mia tu solamente belissimo amore.

Yes,'Rebel without A Cause', played by James Dean and Mylyne Monroe (the sexy looking trying to be actress) but a definate can't beat my beauty Sophia Loren.
It was also shown on Sat cheap matinee at Cathay.
Surprise,surprise it was a smashing hit in the U.States.For film critique its the beginning of a new gendre in films making.Very much influence by Jack Kerouch novel 'On the Road' and 'Buddah Bums'

However I enjoyed 'SiButa dari Gua Hantu'too.Played by Farok Aferoo.
Played at Sevoy cinema.The 3rd.rated cinema in town.
Now it a run down,so do good ole' Cathy,Rex,Odean and Capitol cinema.

Why built new one when the old structure is still solid?
With major restoration and perservation added new sonar sensesound and acoustic proffing it could turn in a modern cinema plax with mini theather hub for culture activities.
I was at the Dewan Hand Tuah a while back.It is in a sad stage.I remember seeing Jeffry Din and A.Ramlee in 1966 at the dewan.Yeap,the 'A Go-Go' era.

I am sure with major overhaul and restoration it could be like any 1st class auditorium but nothing like Syney Opera House or Tate Art Gallery.
Why turn it in a haunting ground for mosquitos to breed.
The riverwalk is right across and a beaut.

Malaccan!!!!! are you all up to the level????

Yes,back to the story board.
The mean looking guy,Farok Afero was a hit to me.
To me he represent me.
The mean looking guy.
Nobody love baddies even with a golden heart.
Heros must always be rich,handsome,drives a fast car not forgetting beautiful gals.I reckon James Bond set the precedent and baddies on the big bike and sleeky.Very mucy influence by Clint Eastwood 'Hell Angles'
How come? Sadly that how film producer dictates the filming world.Bollywood or Hollywood prime motivator.Image sells.
Hero wins no matter how.

Try watching him playing as dad in 'Achirnya Sebuah Impian'(notice the spelling diffrence) now it 'Akhir' but with Javaness enscript consonant will always begins with the alphabet D.
My ayah signitory till today begins with D followed by Jalius thus make it Djalius.Llloyds begins with D'Llloyds and so on.

Anyway,back to the film,the mean father played by Farok Aferoo and Brorey Marantika his son and the poor gal next door,Emilia Contessa,was hit and runs which causes her blind,ending the rich guy falling in love to a poor gal.
The angry dad,Farok,mad at his son on the freaky accident and the punchline goes like this

'sialan... anak-anak sekarang bawa mobil gila-gilan,gampangan,tidak fikir akan keselamatan siapa dijalanan.
Apa lu fikir itu jalan lu sembarangan!

The dramatic impact on the intonation used was superb.
Bung Yamin (Benyamin S)the pacifier ,who could forget his witty hillarious punchline.
Something like 'Benny Hill Show' or 'Two Ronnies' a comedy sit-com.

hmmm... jolly good humour and jolly good days too.
Good old films.

hmmmmm.......

he is without a bit of a doubt stands tall an able charismatic leader.

Able he is.........

Let's move on.......

I found an intresting comment from Jalan Sudin blogspot on her weekly Tuesday With Bapak.

-------------------------------

**The comment was made by Fadhallalah on the topic.
I can't resist to copy and paste.

hmmmmmmmm..............next!!!!!!!

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

The saga of Anwar vs Mahatir and how Anwar was pinned down in 1998 can only be captured by Chinua Achebe in his acclaimed book: A Man of the People which he wrote 45 years ago. By then, Anwar was in High School. The author of the book is a Nigerian intellectual of immense knowledge and unparalleled literature critic. The African icon talked about politics of demonization and character assassination in relation to nations, their colonial powers in the then emerging Africa which has gained independence in the early sixties.

The writer wrote the book in the wake of Africa’s independence where close to 35 countries have gained independence in the early sixties simultaneously. By then, the most important thing was independence. Africans were happy to have chased out the whites and reclaimed Africa. They hated any African who collaborated with the Whites by then. A traitor he was called. Te writer however wasn’t happy because as he captured in his epic book, the new African leadership will cause misery, pain, corruption, nepotism, greed and suffering. They will do worse than the chased out Whites. In order to sustain themselves, the writer foresaw all evils and machinations. By then, what he wrote didn’t happen but he prophesized. However, in the same year that he has published his book in 1966, what he wrote happened almost in a prophetic way.

Achebe wrote that whenever an African leader will feel the heat of a strong leader in his government, and that he can’t remove him through popular vote or casual sacking; his only method will be to blackmail him and relate him to foreign powers and accuse him of treason. Remember, Africans were happy to have gained independence; so anyone who was accused of treason was a villain and cursed. This was when Tunku was the PM by the way. The book has no relation to Malaysia but it talked about how desperate leaders will handle tough competitors ruthlessly.

Ironically, the book gives a fictional example of how such leaders will handle their worthy competitors. In the set up, there is a powerful PM and a powerful and popular Finance Minister. Chinua writes that the PM instructs the Finance Minister to “salvage” some companies as he needs to woo voters for the next elections and also as he has shares in those companies. Typically what Mahatir did to Anwar; albeit Mahatir wanting to salvage his sons’ companies.

However, the Finance Minister declines that order saying it will harm the nation since there was a economic recession and that the economy couldn’t sustain such a venture. The PM is enraged and he moves against his powerful and popular Finance Minister. He sacks him and his close friends on one night. The next day people come to the streets and protest saying the Finance minister was a good man (typically Anwar too). Knowing that he can’t convince people easily; the PM resorts to treason charges. He addresses the nation and even sheds tears in live coverage accusing his Finance Minister “of working with foreign saboteurs to destroy the nation.” The media is government controlled (typically Malaysia) and they do the spinning.

Many people buy the PM’s story and even start blaming the Finance minister whom they regarded as good yesterday. The Finance Minister is jailed, his hand broken and his house raided. (What happened to Anwar) and his close companions create a new party. It is after a long struggle that the people come to know the truth, after the PM’s government is overthrown by the military due to excesses, cronyism and corruption. Prophetically, this happened in Nigeria in 1966 and the book was nicknamed: The Prophetic Book. The writer was even jailed briefly and he fled the nation later.

In our context, this is what has happened in Malaysia. Mahatir knew Malays hated Jews since they mistreat the Palestinians and knowing that Anwar was a man of grassroots and a Malay nationalist who was also more mannered than he was and who probably has the best wife and children given to any male Malay political leader today, he had to accuse Anwar of working with the Jews to destroy Malaysia. I have never seen a more prophetic incident than what Chinua Achebe wrote in his book. However, in Malaysia, there is no military takeover but people’s takeover. What Mahatir did to Anwar is what Chinua Achebe explained in his time immemorial book.

The fact remains Anwar is far the most loyal and lovely son of Malaysia. Only that he is smarter than his Malay contemporaries by being a go getter politician who has extensive networks and foreign knowledge to know how to market himself and Malaysia. His competitors and UMNO warlords lack that finesse, so they resort to character assassination and base accusations. Thank God that we came along way as a nation to know much. They say Anwar works with Jews. Absolutely there is nothing he did nor has cheate anyone. However, working with Jews is neither a crime nor an anti-Islam undertaking in the first place. Our Prophet (pbuh) did work with them as he built his nation. The question is: did Anwar support the Palestinian cause? Yes he did more than Mahatir. For Badawi, he is not aware of what Palestinians are. Talking to your enemy, engaging your enemy, learning your enemy, outmaneuvering and befriending your enemy for both tactical and strategic reasons and humanistic reasons are measures that can only be taken by few chosen and highly intelligent men and women. The unfortunate thing however, is that some poor Malays and intellectually handicapped Mahathirites engage in flimsy issues for personal greed and grandstanding. It is interesting that Mahatir has to pay millions in order to have a photo with US leaders and accuse others of treason simply that they are more influential than him. Pathetic.

Mahatir destroyed our institutions because he wanted to an institution himself. Israel is strong today for one reason: good institutions. Israel's chief enemy Hassan Nasarallah of Hezbollah said last year: “I love Israel for one reason: Israel is a nation that draws its strength from its institutions and that’s why it wins because no Israeli leader can elevate himself above the interests of the nation for personal gain. But Muslim leaders always want to the institutions themselves and we always lose.” Mahatir, we have lost because of you. You want to be declared a semi-god. Thank God that Anwar is on his way to Seri Perdana willy-nilly. Go and scream if you want.

Anwar’s case also reminds what happened to his best friend: incumbent Turkish PM who is also facing new challenges today. They almost suffered the same fate but the two men who are loyal to each other comfort each other always. Anwar was the 1st foreign leader to be welcomed by the Turkish PM after he won the re-election convincingly in July 2007. He also has 25 year relationship with the Turkish President who is a close allay of the PM and he too suffered the same fate. It is a log story but they are men of substance and ability. Truth can't be submerged however long it takes to dawn because that's against the creation order of God.

UPDATES

****Another comment by Annon from the same posting
One man meat, others man poison,I guess and I remain impartial.

To answer Amir's question 1.

It was Anwar that corrupts UMNO. not the other way around. the mid 90's money politics... Being finance minister, Anwar was rather powerful and it was a period of good money. He bought men but somehow Anwar's plan to challenge DrM at that time did not materialise.. Alhamdulillah. UMNO was a lot different in the old days, prior to anwar's entry. And his legacy of money politics carries through in UMNO. picked-up by young KJ..

Now comes an interesting new topic....
KJ used to be a great admirer of Anwar.
Is he still? After Anwar's release from prison - wasn't he the guy that brought Anwar's passport to Anwar's home? What was that!??? Does he really have to do that? so necessary? Can't they use Fedex?

Now we all know one of the reason of BN major lost was the KJ factor. Is KJ working on the inside to destroy UMNO- now seems possible with the current hu-ha - and that's a new conspiracy i'm beginning to see .

It's interesting to see the links between the two. Both seems to have good links with singapore anyway.....

I cant see a person that goes around the world to gain foreign support as futuristic.

From the days when Al Gore was in KL, till recently in India trying to get India's PM support on Hindraf (he did not succeed btw), that to me smells some intent of insincerity . definitely not my leader.

In the 70's every students is rebellious. Anwar seems at home with street protest, even after he was sacked as DPM in th late 90's. not much progress there. back to the future...

If anwar is such a forward thinking, it would be something else. something unorthodox.

charisma alone is not enough. I've listened to his speeches. BIG TOUGH words though..don't know what they means sometimes. And sometimes i felt he does not know what they mean either.
Well most people get impressed anyway.

but i still prefer the plain simple words of DrM. those simple words is so straight and easy to understand. What he says always worth listening. and Pak Lah speeches?. I rather watch TV3 cerekarama

Teringatkan Sri Kandi Negara - Allahyarhama Katijah Sidik

"Sewaktu menulis memoir ini(1963) saya sudah berumur 45 tahun. Selama 30 tahun, saya berjuang untuk rakyat, untuk hak wanita, mementang penjajahan dan imperialisme. Saya tak akan berhenti. Saya tahu, setidak-tidaknya dua kali dalam hidup saya, sekiranya saya berhenti berjuang, saya akan menjadi orang berada dan lebih terjamin daripada segi material, tapi ini bukan jiwa saya.'

`Saya tahu beberapa tahun mendatang keadaannya sukar, mungkin lebih sulit dari sebelumnya. Saya tahu mungkin saya terpaksa masuk penjara semula, mungkin lebih lama dari dahulu. Saya mempunyai empat orang anak; umur saya juga sudah tidak muda. saya mudah letih dan badan saya tidak sekuat dulu. tapi, saya tak boleh berhenti. Saya mesti meneruskan perjuangan.'

- Khatijah Sidek 1918-1982 AL-Fatiha

Arus perubahan politik dan socio budaya kita makin kencang.Metamophosis alam semesta makin kental.Peranan dan perbezaan gender yang ketara tidak pernah menidakkan peranan yang dimainkan oleh kaum Hawa di dalam socio budaya kita.Persoalannya adakah kaum lelaki kita begitu lemah hingga gagal memertabatkan bangsanya?

Bak kata Sri Kandi Negara yang tidak dilagukan Allahyarhama Katijah Sidek

'...sekiranya lelaki Melayu gagal memertabatkan Bangsa Melayu maka tanggong-jawab itu jatoh kepada Wanita Melayu'

Fikir-fikirkan lah.Apa statement itu benar?Melihat daripada mata kasar situasi dini hari,nyata benar.
Apa kamu sedia memberi laluan?

Nah Sri Kandi yang tak dilagukan,hidup dalam kedaifan,bisa mengoncang minda anda,
apa sebenarnya itu KUASA?

Kamu lali atau tuli?
Kamu gah atau tawa?
Kamu terlalu manja
Pasarana hype jadi pilihan
bukan lorong-lorong orang-orang bunian lagi.

Kamu leka atas nama kemanusiaan
Kamu pasrah sebulat ada
lupa esok bukan kepunyaan kita lagi tapi kepunyaan semua.

The supporting team is sending a Memo to the superior.For constitutional and Admistrative lawyers,the bulk and delegeted responsibility are in question!!!
It has always been in question for the past 20 years.

Horrible school toilet and dripping water when it rains.
I was so call student leader of the school then.
It was at Adabi Maharani in 1977.

***********************

12th March 2008

Dato' Seri,

Let me take this opportunity to thank you Datuk Seri for your leadership and for allowing me and giving the trust to contest at the recent general elections as a candidate for Jerlun. With the support, hard work and the blessing of the party's leadership and the party machinery and the people of Jerlun, I have won the elections and am now a new Member of Parliament.

However, sadly enough, my victory is rendered meaningless in view of the defeat that Umno and the Kedah BN suffered in the hands of the opposition. Apart form Kedah, four other states as well as the Federal Territories also received similar humiliation in defeat.

In fact your own state of Penang was wrested by the DAP from the BN. Kelantan is again under Pas rules. In other states, the BN also suffered a similar humiliation when the level of BN support by the people has tremendously reduced. This, Datuk Seri, has never happened in the history of BN rule.

The sole intention of my letter to you is meant to save UMNO and BN from being rejected further by the people and from being no longer relevant to our religion, race and nation.

Dato' Seri, the people are unhappy and the message from them is very clear, and that is they have rejected you as the nation's chief executive.

Contrary to your claim that you still have the support of Umno and other component parties, the reality is that even our own party members had reneged in their voting pattern by supporting the Opposition and inflicting the BN its defeat.

Dato' Seri, when the people held street demonstrations you openly dared them to resort to the ballot boxes to demonstrate.

They took your challenge by coming out, especially tho people in the Peninsular, and they demonstrated their feelings by voting us out at the BN at State and Parliament levels.

It is therefore clear that your leadership and your handling of the issues faced by the people and the nation are no longer accepted. Let's not deny the truth just for the sake of keeping your seat as Prime Minister.

For the love of this country and the people, I beg that you take responsibility for the defeat. We can save UMNO, the BN and the nation only if you relinquish your positions as Prime Minister and the President of UMNO.

Dato' Seri, I hope you will understand that I make this plea with the intention of salvaging a very dire situation. A move has been made to woo the BN representatives to join the Opposition. The enemy needs just 35 seats more to topple the government of your leadership.

If you do not resign in the near future, I fear that the situation will become untenable and that the Malay support for Umno and BN will be a thing of the past.

This plea I make without malice, and I am aware that your reaction and that of other UMNO members could very well be hostile.

But come what may, I am prepared, for the sake of the Malays and UMNO, to face the consequences of my action. With all humility, I leave my fate to Allah SWT.

Dato' Seri, I am sure that you will do the right thing for the sake of the people and the nation. May Allah SWT bless you for the sacrifice you make by stepping down.

Wasallam

Yours Sincerely

Mukhriz Mahathir
Jerlun Member Parlament

I spoke to Mukhriz to confirm that he had, indeed, sent the letter to the PM and Umno President. He confirmed it but declined to discuss details of the letter. It didn't matter because I had already obtained a copy from my own sources.
Since my "teaser" yesterday, mykmu has published Mukhriz's letter here.

Q&A:Tun Mathatir Mohammad press interview yesterday Sunday 9/3/08
Khairy to blame for BN's electoral defeat
Mar 9, 08 9:05pm
I think his son-in-law played a big role (in the defeat). This young man who has no achievements before but apparently the PM listens to him. said Mahathir at a press conference.

Are you surprised by the results?

Mahathir: I think it’s shocking. Although I expected BN to lose but I did not think that they lost five states.

I'm sorry that I made the wrong choice in Pak Lah. I never expected a PM to reverse all the policies of the government. So I think the people on the whole must have been very angry. All the three communities, the Chinese, the Malays and the Indians, have reacted.

Will Tun pressure Pak Lah to resign?

I think he should accept responsibility for this. Just as in 2004, the huge majority, the huge victory was purportedly due to him 100 percent. Now he should accept 100 percent of the responsibility.

What do you mean by taking responsibility?

He has destroyed Umno, destroyed BN. And he has to be responsible for this terrible defeat.

If he doesn't want to take responsibility, do you think that Umno will do something to make him go?

I think Umno people on the ground are fearful of this man as they have never been before. During my time they would challenge me. Here I was not allowed to speak. I was given invitations to give talk to Umno members but these were withdrawn. They say that the police told them to withdraw it.

When you say ‘step down’, do you mean (from) Umno or PM?

I think he should (step down). The Japanese would have performed ‘hara-kiri’. I think that Najib (Razak) has done very well. He has scored an amazing victory, more than the 2004 elections.

What do you think led to this defeat?

I think his son-in-law (Khairy Jamaluddin) played a big role. This young man who has no achievements before but apparently the PM listens to him more rather than the police, the special branch and the armed forces, who are closer to the ground. They were so taken up with their own newspaper reports that they couldn't hear anything else. They dismissed everything they didn't like.

Do you think the timing of the election was a miscalculation?

It can be called a miscalculation but I doubt if they had waited another year, the results would have been any different.

What were the issues which led to the loss of the states?

Many issues led to the pent-up feelings of the citizens of which despite the economic growth, the people aren't feeling anything. They feel the rise in the cost of living a big factor. They also see that this government is run by one family. When family takes precedence over cabinet, over government, then people will be against it.

Do you think this damage is permanent for BN?

Everything can be reversed if you do things properly. They have been so arrogant that they have suppressed any opinions they don't like and believe in their own reports which are not consistent with what is really happening in the country.

With the opposition making so much inroads in Malaysia, what do you think will happen?

Well, there will be instability for some time. If the opposition is good, they should be able to remedy the situation.

Do you think that Anwar Ibrahim is still relevant?

I think he is relevant but he is not going to become the prime minister of this country.

If you were in Pak Lah's shoes, would you be in a hurry to form the government?

I would take responsibility. If the people want me to resign, I would resign.

After this setback, do you think that Barisan has any hope to remedy this situation?

There is hope. But whether the leaders have the will to repair BN is another question.

Who should succeed Pak Lah?

Najib won by 26,000 votes and this is much more than in 2004 when the BN was very, very popular. On the other hand, Pak Lah - who had a majority of 18,000 before - only has a majority of 11,000 now. The fact is that he lost a number of votes. And there are not many people who have improved (their majority) since 2004.

Yes, his son-in-law won but he only won by a small majority, smaller than previously. He was also in a safe seat.

How to cure Umno?

The person responsible should retreat.

If the Malays had not voted for opposition this would not have happened. Why did the Umno supporters vote for opposition this time?

They feel their situation is under pressure. Inflation is high. Their lives are on the line. The people know that you can say that there is 6 percent growth but where is the 6 percent on their body? They are having to spend more money.

I've said this to Malaysiakini. When you say 6 percent, it is an average. This can be achieved by one person having a very high percentage but the rest have nothing. You can't have this sort of figures and expect people to vote for you.

The intelligent people would know that this is not correct. Those that don't understand all these figures, rather be guided by what is actually happening to them. What is happening to them is the higher cost of living and a lowering of their standard of living.

Going back to the 1969 elections, after the Alliance had lost, you were one of the main agitators for the prime minister (Tunku Abdul Rahman) to transfer his powers to his deputy (Tun Abdul Razak)...

I am in a dilemma as I'm an Umno member.

Are you the agitator again?

I will voice out my opinion. If people ask, I will give my opinion. And my opinion in this matter is that the person responsible should step down.

Looking at the current BN line-up, do you think that the BN government can manage the economy?

No, I don't think they can manage. Even when they have full force and tons of money at their disposal they have not done anything.

Why?

You have to ask the state leaders.

Penang has fallen to DAP, how do you think this will affect the Malays?

It's not just about Penang. If we want to correct that, we have got Malay leaders, we've got a Malay government and the citizens who are Malay must know how to overcome their problems.

What can veterans like Tengku Razaleigh (Hamzah) do to help Umno at this juncture?

They can give ideas.

Is it to revolt and cause Pak Lah to resign?

I am not talking about a rebellion but there must be pressure. And if that pressure is ignored by Pak Lah, then this would turn the matter into a heated confrontation.

Do you think that the opposition success is attributed to Anwar?

I don't think it is so. This is more of something against BN than strong support for the opposition.

They (voters) have no choice. If you don't vote BN, who do you vote for? There are only two candidates. So you vote for the opposition or you don't vote at all. Either way, the BN was going to lose a lot of support.

People say that Umno is still afraid of Pak Lah. So how can they pressure Pak Lah to step down?

I'm sure that there are some brave members out there.

Are there any alternatives for Pak Lah other than to resign?

I don't see any other alternative. The man that is 100 percent responsible has to show that he is responsible.

Some people were saying if BN's two-thirds majority is denied, a repeat of May 13 would take place. Why won't it happen now?

No I don't think it would happen. In the first place, the police have been very careful, telling people no demonstration and no parades.

In 1969, the police gave permission for the opposition to hold a victory parade. And they went to Kampung Baru and started insulting the people there, which caused a reaction. This ended up as a riot. If the police remain strong on these demonstrations and victory parades, I don't think there will be any problems.

Is it time to end racial politics?

I'm going to tell you this (rejection of BN) involves all the races. It's not as if the Chinese reject BN or all the Indians reject BN. Here, you see Chinese, Indian and Malay reject BN except for Sabah and Sarawak.

Umno has retained more seats compared to the other component parties like MIC and MCA. Will they pressure Pak Lah to step down?

That depends on them to whether to apply pressure or not but the Barisan Nasional concept is still relevant. If there is no (MIC chief S) Samy Vellu, then find another Vellu.

Can you comment on Zam (Zainuddin Maidin)?

He won or lost? Oh, he lost. Well, the way he was campaigning was really funny, telling people to look at his face and how it doesn't change. But I think that a face that doesn't change can be very boring. Sometimes you must laugh, sometimes you must cry.

He was telling everybody "Ini muka tak bertukar, tak bertukar". Who is interested in his ‘wajar’? If he was Britney Spears, then….

If you had suffered the same defeat, would you have resigned too?

Yes, I would resign if that is the wish of the people. I've always abided by the wish of the people, so much so that people who were against me were brought back into the cabinet, and that includes Pak Lah, Syed Hamid (Syed Albar), Rais Yatim and (Abdul) Kadir Sheikh Fadzil. All these (leaders) were against me.

But when Pak Lah was elected vice-president, I cannot (not appoint him) as he was wanted by Umno. As such I appointed him back into the cabinet.

But you did not resign in 1999?

I did not because we won two-thirds. We won with full Chinese support. Yes, we lost Terengganu and Kelantan but we have always lost Kelantan and Terengganu was for very specific reasons.

Did BN lose because too many people like Samy Vellu had hung on to power too long?

I think that Samy Vellu played a big part in the defeat. When he was in BN, he doesn't allow any of the MIC people to come up to his level. If they come up (to be) deputy or vice-president, he will knock them down and even expel them from the party.

And he wouldn't allow any other Indian party to join BN. (MG) Pandithan tried to join, begged me to allow him and I wanted to agree but we have this consensus in BN that if one party doesn't agree we cannot accept them.

Are you surprised by (ISA detainee) M Manoharan's victory?

This has happened before in 1959 or is it 1964, when PAS used to go from village to village carrying the candidate's shoes and he won.

What can you say about the media’s - especially the mainstream ones' - role in this campaign? Do you think that there should be changes there?

There should be changes. They should report what actually happens and make a proper analysis. Before, they were able to feed back to me what was happening on the ground. Maybe, when they talk about races and things like that, I would have to clamp down on them, which I did in 1987.

Should all the bosses of the newspapers resign too?

They have their constraints. Some of them are my friends and supporters too and they apologise say that they can't help. "It's all this Kali. This Kali," they tell me.

Has Umno become irrelevant?

For the moment, yes. It's not always so. If Umno serves the country well, and looks after all the different races, then Umno will be relevant again.

What is your comment on the young BN candidates losing?

There is this rumour that some of these candidates are Khairy's and that he wants to be prime minister.

Do you think that other BN component leaders should resign too?

I think that one component leader has already been knocked out. As for Ong Ka Ting, it's up to him. This is a very bad defeat for him and MCA and it's never been this bad before.

Everyone says that PAS and DAP cannot work together but if they don't in Selangor and Perak, they can't form state government. What is your take on this?

If they work together they can form state government. If not, then representatives of Umno - if there are many - can form a minority government. But it will be a shaky government.

Are you sad with the results?

Yes, I am although I had hoped that a message would be sent to the government.

Will you return to active politics?

I won't return to active politics but if they want advice, I can give them. How can I return when once I stepped down they treated me like a pariah?

Almarhum Tan Sri Azizan bin Zainal Abidin (1932-2004)

Read a poem today by Faiz Ahmad Faiz like to share with you.

SPECK

speck,your lips are free.
speck,it is your tounge.
speck,it is your own body.
speck,your life is still yours.

See how in the blacksmith's shop
The flame burns wild,
the iron glows red,
The locks open their jaws,
and every chain begins to break.

Speck,this brief hours is long enough
Before the death of body and tounge.
Speck, 'cause truth is not dead yet,
Speck,speck
whatever you must speck

-Faiz Ahmad Faiz-
Poet 1911-1984

Politician come and go but leaders are born and groom for and with it.
You wish to challenge this bold statement.Pleased do.I'll be waiting.
Here's my facts.

Believe me,within a decade the new generation will forget a man very much sinonim with PUTRAJAYA AND PETRONAS.
Almarhum Tan Sri Azizan bin Zainal Abidin.Al.Fatiha.
An ophan from Penang whom together steered and steward our development to where we are today.Groom and brought up by the Che Teh's family and wed off to Almarhum Che Teh's beautiful daughter Yg.Bhg.Puan Sri Noraini Che Teh.
Bless with beautiful successful children.

I personnally met Almarhum Tan Sri, only on two occassion.
First,when he was still the Under Secetary with KDN way back in early 70's.
Yes..yes I know the Ops Lalang what so ever,even grouches by some quaters on the ISA issue,the Sidek Ghaous incident,Two Dollahs,Mamali's ,AKUI etc.etc,all are recorded history.
Second much later when he came to my cousin sister Maz wedding at kampong in 1994.
I can't remember much on the first meeting coz I was still a wee lad then,but I knew for sure his presence and personality then shows sign of an important man from Kuala Lumpur.
A personality where any reasonable 'kampong boy' would ditto copy.

I remember how envy I was with his shoes.
Real Black leather and shinning.
It was much later when I'm out of my cocoon,I knew one could buy a jolly good pair of imported of Locker,Bally,Clark,Salamander at either P Lal store,Johyti or have it custom made at Nam King cobblers along (used to)Jln.Medan Tengku Abd.Rahman,but it cost a fortune then.

The second meeting , when he was already a Tan Sri.
I recall him coming, drove with his family members all the way from KL to my little village ,unchauffered.
Being in position he still find time to be at my humble family home for the jubliant occassion.
Casually not over dress,eating at 'Majlis Kahwin orang kampong' just like any ordinary folks,genuine smile all along and humble.
I rememberd offering him a second helping of 'Nasi Minyak'

'...Tan Sri jemput tambah lagi......'

his answer was spontanous,in thick Penang accent,
'..lah...awat hang panggil formal-formal ni..Anam Izan aje dahlah!!
I recall his remark,.....hangkan anak Anam Malek!
Yes,Almarhum Pak Malek was my uncle and a father to me too.
He didn't have a son,only Maz my cousin sister whom we were brought up together.

Yes,ibok was a working lady,Mak Nyah, my aunt took care of my welfare and groom me all along my primary and secondary schooling years.
Lucky me, I have 3 diffrent fathers(an uncle,real father and step dad) which took care of my welfare,health and wealth.
All are my mentors and it was from all three I learn the facts of life.
Like a wise man advising his son,

'son!....anything good come from me,your father but
anything bad come from your willy"

The meeting was a short one.
From a reasonable man point of view, there is no way one could claim one is close to someone,after merely two short meeting.

It takes a life time to know a person.
His temprement,his honesty,his down to earth altitude.
However,I can assured you,Almarhum Tan Sri Azizan,
is a man with high intergrity ,respected and down to earth person despite all the status he attain in life.A character,only speck when are spoken to!

Here's my story,

It was Ramadan 2005,Me and my other half breaks our fast then at
The Alamanda ,Putrajaya open cafe.
After a short snack I proceed to Alamanda Surau for 'Jemmah Maghrib'.I miss the first takbir and proceed with the rest.
The Imam whom leads the prayers faces the Kiblat all the way till the sholat and doa is over.When its over, he stood up facing the jemaah.

Allahu Akhbar.
In a split second,this Imam looks precisely of late Tan Sri Azizan.
The personality and trade mark befits him.
I approached and whisper to him,

'..Tuan,wajah tuan seakan-akan mirip wajah Almarhum Tan Sri Azizan.
He didn't say a word and varnish in split second.

Lillah.I am willing to take a 'Bayyinah' coz it is the 'haq an'nas ainal haqqul al yakin'

Both Tan Sri and TDM are close and both had dreams for the reality of Putrajaya existence at heart.
Tan Sri the executor and TDM the 'Planner'.Both are philotropist.

It was on one of the last 10 days of Ramadan.I am assured.
I kept the mystical meeting all by myself ,until I met his daughter 'Datin' and his son Amir Hamzah at a 'majlis tahlil' some years ago and told them the actual event.

The moral of the story is:

'God pick his rightfull khalifah via the voice of the people,and definately he chooses and pick the wise and able one'.

ONLY THE ABLE ONE!!!!

But that doesn’t mean I got no knowledged of it.
Like my brother in clad,we are the 'Minang Murtad'.
I could be as loud as you wanna me to be!

A firm believer in Article 3 till 13 and 121 of the Federal Constitution particularly Article 5 and agreed absolute agreed with Raja Azlan Shah cj (as he was then) in the Judgement of DBKL V Sri Lembah Enterprise.

I have no political thought and political wings inclination of any form even though my up bring years was full with Socio-Political book since my schooling days.
I read Karl Marx,Lenin,Mathadma Ghandi,Mendela,Bishop Desmond Tutu etc.etc till Anita Baker even the Satanic Verses but didn't digest.
I got the Malay Delemma by Tun ,way back in '75 in Singpore shopping, while it was still been outlawed.
'Revolusi Mental' by Senu Abd.Rahman was my 15 the birthday present given by my uncle and 'Kelas Menegah Melayu' by Dr.Nordin Selat was my reading at Form 3.
I was bored with school text book instead my shopping list then,would be comics and SOPO kind of writing plus antologi by Keris Mas,Salmi Manja,Latif Mohiddin and article by groupy 'Anak Alam' base at Panggung Experimental then,intrest me.

Been reading S.H Al'attas since schooling days,'Perang di Kuala Linggi' and many more, personnaly since my student days I regard it as 'Political Junk books'and to my surprise many local political pundits refers to his books as an indication of our political climate.

It is not to my liking,instead of referering to George Bernard Shaw or Isaiah Berlin as point or reference or Sheikh Maududi or the very least Faris Noor.

Well,but it sells to the masses and he do make good bucks from his effort,
but....the masses at large become political junkies,swamps with gossip and back stabbing in the political kow-tao,instead of purelism sort of 'to believe or not to believe'.
However he too, like me took the baayat with Sheihk Nazim (refers to Dec.posting)

Berdosa tahu!
But I am firm beliver in 'JUSTICE,FAIR AND PROGRESS'

My background both ibok and ayah side one way or another are both inter mingle with it.
On ayah roots is of one of the West Sumatraian pious and nationalistic scholar not recorded in any Malaysian History journal.
You find the link here.

Has you heard of Sheikh Sulaiman Al Rasuli?

I must say,if you haven’t,some history lesson on line here.
Great-great Grand dad met his Lord in 1956.Al Fatiha.

I was digging the old photos at Ibu Jak home in Kedoya some years ago and I saw this potriat of Buya Hamka leading a congregational prayers at a muslim cemetery.I suppose Allahyarham Buya Hamka was performing ‘Salatun Jenazah Ghaibin’ prayers done when one has already been buried according to the Muslim ritual.

I notice one very familiar face among the makmum on the congrational prayers.
He was on a ‘Songkok Hitam’ his trade mark and his Ray Ban Dark Glasses,a full attire in an Army Suit.Very exquisite.

Sukarno!!!
That’s him in the picture taken,performing salatul Jenazah Ghaib together with Sahibbul Sammaa’ Murshyid Almarhum Prof.Dr.Hj.Abd Malik bin Abd.Karim Amrumullah(HAMKA).on the the grave site of my Inyik Candung as he is passionately known among his murid and the general public.
His work still stand strong till this day at Candung,Madrasah Tabliyah Muhammadiah Candung.
Graduates from Talbiyah Muhammmadiah Candung are qualified teachers acknowledge by the R.I Department Agama and R.I Department Pendidikan Nasional.
To cut the bio-blogroll short, he was one of the 'Pejuang Bangsa Yang Hakiki' together Almarhum Agus Salim,Hatta,Hamka and the West Sumatrarian clan and the PNI leaders, Sukarno fight for Merdeka in 1946.

Atuk,his son was sentence to excile to Melaka back in the late 20's for fighting against the colonial rule back then.
His son,my uncle Om.Makmur and my Papa Jak was imprisonment by the Sukarno,during the 'Confrontasi Era' in the early 60's
It causes Papa Jak good job in Padang and thus forces him and family migrate to Jakarta in 1966 to find a better pasture.
Alhamdullillah, his is 'cream della cream' of the society in Jakarta today.

As far as ayah is concerned,he does not has any inclination towards politics what so ever.
He has been tame by the British.Like what he does best,that is sports till his retirement days.
No radical political thought in ayah.He follows the wind.

Ibok side.High achivers.
Have you heard 'Perang Tiga Segi' between Riau-Lingga,Dutch and Johore.Johore Empire was back by the Bugis Makassar,Riau by the Dutch and Acheh on it own.
The 'BUGIS' leads by Raja Ali Haji ancestors of Daeng Memanik leads the battle.
This unrecorded genelogist of the family tree was recorded and written by Almarhum my late great grand uncle,my grand dad first cousin Almarhum Hj.Mohd Khalid bin Hj.Abu Bakar(Joe Carlos) but never publish.
Al.Fatiha.Man.........what a man,well spoken and learned man,trim and proper.

The kampong folks could clarified what a standing ovation man he was.
Brave and Bold,thats what the grand old man like.

Him,tracing and tracking the family roots trace back to the days of Raja Ali Haji sttlement at Ketapang ie.an old name for Telok Mas where Hendry Gurney Schools for Boys are located.
Originally,Telok Ketapang was a POW camp for the Bugis caught rebelling against the Dutch.You could name it 'The Dutch Slaughter House'.

It was after the 1824 treaty when Malacca was exchange for Batavia by the Dutch to the Englich EIC,the Bugis rebels was release and find their way home either to Makassar or settling in the area within Telok Mas,Alai,Pernu.
Settling best for, what ever the catch of the day was.

Tracking from verbal document,demostrate by Almarhum my great -grand uncle,the family roots was the first cousin of Shayhid Raja Ali Haji,to remind you,Raja Ali Haji was hang by the Dutch Authority at Telok Ketapang.
His sin was rebelling against foreign colonizer.

Ibok rooting was Alai.
The 'BUGIS', man...........legend brave sea farers,fierce and fire,good merchant and pious people.
Remember the Spice Trade and Ambionan Makassar Rampage.
The ethnic cleansing by the Dutch in Makassarian,reasons was, the Dutch EIC wanted to take control the Spice monopoly helds by the Bugis.
The family tree even though yet to be proven but it is a reliable piece of information.

Tracking my family temprement all the essence is there.

Wait till I publish ,as I have promise one of my uncle, his auto-biography on his life as an SB while serving in the S.P.F back in the 60's,where the nation was swamps with highly organised crimes,internal bricking between S'pore and us, the problems confronted ,The Natrah story,Cleaning The Street from MOB,the underground API AWAS,Trade Union etc 'The Untold Stories'.Gang Fight,The Indonesian Comandor etc,etc.
It was from him I learn the 'LAW' and the essence of the Penal Code.
After serving with total dedication and knowing this man seriousness while executing his job, a rank and file promoted to an Inspector and being the youngest Sargent Major in the force,he couldn't be wrong in the untold tales from the 'South of the Border'.But faith has it tale and toll.

After retiring for nearly 40 years living on a pension,merely $150 a month from the Singapore govt.I thought our Malaysian Police retirement plan had a better deal.

Well,we do come from a well fierces fighter with a caused and definately we are not a rebel rouser.
Quoting from great novelist Pramoedya Anan Teor,

King Rat

2008-02-08T09:00:00.001+08:00

This film hits me.I read and saw the film a while back.
Its based on stories of the POW camp during the Japanese occupation.
Some good story base line message.
The title itself represent the message.Among alliance, there would be treachery and arm twisting deal too.

The word 'rat'itself has diffrent meaning and various interpretation.
If someone be called 'a rat' in underground lingo all it means never trust a person.
A manipulative and cunning person for betraying a friendship bondage built.
It happends particularly to a person face with serious allegation in trying to escape any charges brought againts him by turning informer.
Thats how cheap a person can be.

Rats a dangerous species.It represents dirt and a pest to householder.
It is a unhealty creature.
You would find plenty cripping on the street where major food joints and many of them in colony around Bangsar.

Some how, we also have 'living rat'.
In office politics its normal to find rats among us.
In real politics it normal especially now during these pre election fever.
I smell rat this time of the year and a heavy over weight one too.

Some are not rats but mice or hampster which is harmless and are home pet and healty to keep in the house.
As George Owen 'Animal Farm' line.....all animals unite!!
Its time to work.......

All I can say 'until the Falcon meets the Falconeers' no one could be trusted while the election fever is on.

What ever it is, To 'Would be or Wanna be King Rats,
my humble request
'Don't be a rat' and 'Get ready to be experimented in the Science Lab and Beware the rat trap!

There would be question like,
where did you get the Dirty Food!!
From the people?

Only fools knows the value of a lame horse!!!!

George Segal plays Corporal King, an American soldier in a Japanese prison camp who manages all the black market operations amongst the enforced holding of a group of English and Americans. His demeanor and bearing stand out in contrast to the rag tag prisoners he shares the camp with in part because of his willingness to ostensibly advance on the needs of others. He is constantly scrutinized by Lieutenant Grey (Tom Courtenay), the camp police chief as he has gotten reports that King has robbed fellow prisoners in a poker game. It is clear that King takes pleasure in living on what would be considered a clear example of the American Capitalist version of supply and demand, and seeks ways to increase his organization by recruiting talented men like Peter Marlowe (James Fox), an English soldier who speaks fluent Japanese, but refuses Kings offering of money for his services. Marlowe attempts to live by a code that bonds men in way that transcends any financial gain, and in fact considers King an actual friend because he and the American are interred together under Japanese rule. King extends his operation to include trading valuables to the Japanese and breeding rats to sell as food to the officers as a delicacy, activities that Marlowe is happy to aid in because of the smart commercial way that the schemes are launched. The ability to gain valuable items including medical supplies becomes important when Fox injures himself and faces serious physical danger. As Lieutenant Grey closes in to mete out the camp law enforcement his code of conduct conflicts with Marlowe, his cabin mate. Theirs is a philosophy differing slightly and both based on survival with the most reaffirming respect for fellow man they can develop under these war conditioners. As Grey attempts to arrest King and Marlowe for their criminal activity it becomes clear that the commanding officers live by a fractured value system.

Long Live The Truth Ya Haq.

It was a while back I wrote in the blog 10 people I personaly knew whom doesn't practice polygamy.

Hmmmm.....its thought provoking subject.
I suppose one man meat,other man poison kind of situation.

I have a deep thought after recieving an intresting article posted by my sister in Jak.Glad to share it but I really has limited time to translate the story in English.

Its about a man married for 35 years with 4 children,caring and nursing his beloved wife for 25 odd years with tender care,love,devotion and not a bit of thought to practice polygamy.Even given the blessing from his adult children.
His love to his bed ridden wife remain the same just as the vowed he made during the sodomise 'akad' ceremony 35 years ago,
'....in health,in wealth in pain and in hunger,so help me God.'

25 years caring for a stroke patience in something.
I know definate,in matter of fact we,at home nurse our dear father for 2 years before his dimise last 27 of Ramadan 1427 H.It will be 100 days tahlil ceromony this coming 9th.Febuary.'The Father In Law' to me and a very-very respectable man and is closed in my heart.

Lillah.I bare witness to Al Mighty,
this man position 'should be' in the 'Jannatul Naim'.Amin.

As the story goes 'what impress me most is his words when he was interview by a local tv station

'....Jika manusia didunia ini mengagungkan sebuah cinta tapi dia tidak mencintai karena Allah semuanya akan luntur'
translated
'if mankind cherish love more than Allah and doesn't loved becaused of Allah,
all will be destroyed'

hmmmmm...yes,yes,yes...some deep thought.
Go ahead its a nice thought provoking piece.
'What is this foolish thing call love'
It a tittle of a jazz ballad by Art Pepper

Based on True Story..

Dilihat dari usianya beliau sudah tidak muda lagi,usia yg sudah senja
bahkan sudah mendekati malam, pak Suyatno 58 tahun kesehariannya diisi
dengan merawat istrinya yang sakit istrinya juga sudah tua. Mereka menikah
sudah lebih 32 tahun. Mereka dikaruniai 4 orang anak dan disinilah awal cobaan menerpa,setelah istrinya melahirkan anak ke empat tiba2 kakinya lumpuh dan tidak bisa digerakkan itu terjadi selama 2 tahun,menginjak tahun ke tiga seluruh tubuhnya menjadi lemah bahkan terasa tidak bertulang lidahnyapun sudah tidak bisa digerakkan lagi.

Setiap hari Pak Suyatno memandikan,membersihkan kotoran,menyuapi, dan
mengangkat istrinya keatas tempat tidur

Sebelum berangkat kerja dia letakkan istrinya didepan TV supaya istrinya
tidak merasa kesepian walau istrinya tidak dapat bicara tapi dia selalu
melihat istrinya tersenyum,untunglah tempat usaha Pak Suyatno tidak begitu
jauh dari rumahnya sehingga siang hari dia pulang untuk menyuapi istrinya
makan siang. sorenya dia pulang memandikan istrinya,mengganti pakaian dan
selepas maghrib dia temani istrinya nonton televisi sambil menceritakan
apa2 saja yg dia alami seharian.

Walaupun istrinya hanya bisa memandang tapi tidak bisa menanggapi, Pak
Suyatno sudah cukup senang.
Bahkan dia selalu menggoda istrinya setiap berangkat tidur.

Rutinitas ini dilakukan Pak suyatno lebih kurang 25 tahun,dengan sabar dia
merawat istrinya bahkan sambil membesarkan ke empat buah hati
mereka,sekarang anak2 mereka sudah dewasa tinggal si bungsu yg masih
kuliah.

Pada suatu hari ke empat anak suyatno berkumpul dirumah orang tua mereka
sambil menjenguk ibunya.

Karena setelah anak mereka menikah sudah tinggal dengan keluarga masing2
dan Pak Suyatno memutuskan ibu mereka Dia yg merawat, yang dia inginkan
hanya satu semua anaknya berhasil. Dengan kalimat yg cukup hati2 anak yg
sulung berkata " Pak kami ingin sekali merawat ibu, semenjak kami kecil
melihat bapak merawat ibu tidak ada sedikitpun keluhan keluar dari bibir
bapak.bahkan bapak tidak ijinkan kami menjaga ibu" .dengan air mata
berlinang anak itu melanjutkan kata2nya " sudah yg keempat kalinya kami
mengijinkan bapak menikah lagi , kami rasa ibupun akan mengijinkannya,
kapan bapak menikmati masa tua bapak dengan berkorban seperti ini kami
sudah tidak tega melihat bapak,kami janji kami akan merawat ibu
bergantian".

Pak Suyatno menjawab hal yg sama sekali tidak diduga anak2 mereka." Anak2ku
Jikalau hidup didunia ini hanya untuk nafsu Mungkin bapak akan menikah,tapi
ketahuilah dengan adanya ibu kalian disampingku itu sudah lebih dari
cukup,dia telah Melahirkan kalian".. sejenak kerongkongannya tersekat,
kalian yg selalu kurindukan hadir didunia ini dengan penuh cinta yg tidak
satupun dapat menghargai dengan apapun.coba kalian tanya ibumu apakah dia
menginginkan keadaanya seperti Ini.kalian menginginkan bapak bahagia,apakah
bathin bapak bisa bahagia meninggalkan ibumu dengan keadaanya
sekarang".kalian menginginkan bapak yg masih diberi Allah kesehatan dirawat
oleh orang lain bagaimana dengan ibumu yg masih sakit. Sejenak meledaklah
tangis anak2 Pak Suyatno merekapun melihat butiran2 kecil jatuh dipelupuk
mata ibu suyatno..dengan pilu ditatapnya mata
suami yg sangat dicintainya itu..

Sampailah akhirnya Pak Suyatno diundang oleh salah satu stasiun TV swasta
untuk menjadi nara sumber diacara islami

Selepas shubuh dan merekapun mengajukan pertanyaan kepada pak suyatno
kenapa mampu bertahan selama 25 tahun merawat Istrinya yg sudah tidak bisa
apa2..disaat itulah meledak tangis beliau dengan tamu yg hadir di studio
kebanyakan kaum perempuanpun tidak sanggup menahan haru disitulah Pak
Suyatno bercerita".

Jika manusia didunia ini mengagungkan sebuah cinta tapi dia tidak mencintai
karena Allah semuanya akan luntur.
saya Memilih istri saya menjadi
pendamping hidup saya,dan sewaktu dia sehat diapun dengan sabar merawat
saya,mencintai saya dengan hati dan bathinnya bukan dengan mata,dan dia
memberi saya 4 orang anak yg lucu2..

Sekarang dia sakit berkorban untuk saya karena Allah..dan itu merupakan
ujian bagi saya,sehatpun belum tentu saya
Mencari penggantinya apalagi dia sakit,,,setiap malam saya bersujud dan
menangis dan saya dapat bercerita kepada Allah

Diatas sajadah..dan saya yakin hanya kepada Allah saya percaya untuk
menyimpan dan mendengar rahasia saya..

Shut up will you!!!! when saying you love him or her!
Unless you know the real meaning well.
Its all about 'pengorbanan'.

Magic Hands - Miss Who?

2008-01-17T02:47:00.000+08:00

It was only yesterday I had exchange notes with my buddy Bangkai.Didn't know he is into abstract of some form.Some known rene-science man.
I could pick only a few,Van Gough the mad painter with his 'Sun Flower'or John Constantine with his much celeberated 'Hay Wain'.
I had the chances to see the real 'Hay Wain'.So call Art critique add him as an expressionist.So do Monet and Renoir etc.etc
That painting of his really had an impact on me.
It was at the British Mesuem exhibit sometimes ago.There was a bench right opposite the painting,it was one nice summer hols,I stood right facing the painting for 3 solid hours.
I must be on a trip to stood there that long, admiring the much celeberated master piece.

I am not a painter neither I have every tried one.
I'm having a second thought of taking it up casually.Did tried pottray making but give up due to time.
Monet ,Renoir or Piccaso or Mike Angelo means some thing to someone but for me not a painter,they are okay.

But...I must have one of Allahyarham Dato Hossein Enas pieces.
The pipe smoking painter.Always with his berret hat while working
He left a legacy behind and most of his pieces were at the TNB and SHELL corporate Room at Bangsar. How ever 16 pieces has been return back by SHELL to the KEKKWA as a coporate social responsibility.
'Must have' means must have those 'piti'.
Those pieces is a must.I dont undersatand abstract.It make me sick.

I am a beauty lover.
Allah love's beauty and life is beautiful.
I love beauty forms but not abstract.
I fall in love with the 'Miss Magic Hand' straight away after recieving an attachment email from my sister Ade from Jak.
Miss Illana!!!!!she 's a wonder?
Those hands are bless. Message sent and recieved.
Let me kiss those 'Magic Hand' me lady !
Like a gentleman I will.....

From Zero to Hero - Allahyarham Tuan Hj.Abbas Bandung

2008-01-09T12:55:00.003+08:00

**Atuk Pakeh and Hj.Abbas Bandung on sarung in the middle and Buya Hamka,ayah far end right.

More info on the vist of Buya Hamka then, visit here.

It was two years ago I wrote in the blog about 'The Minang Connection'(Dec.2005 archives)
The early 'sawo matang' immgrant in Malacca.Malacca or 'Maaalako' with a a thick minang accent as prounounce by my late grandad Hj.Pakeh Temenggong aka Pak Tuo as he is affectionaly know among the minang community in Malacca back then.
He pass away peacefully in 1983,the most remembered is how he was call by his Lord,fell down and rush to home in unconsious state,after locking the last wooden door of his shop preparing to call it a day as usual.
It shows how deep the love for his shop and job .As his shop advertisment written,as I remembered then, 'PAKIH TEMENGGONG MENJAHIT SONGKOK AND CAPAL'.

How I wish I could have that zinc made advertisment both enscript in Malay and Jawi or the very least a photo of it.
That his life proffession and yes if you have met him you would definately fall in love with the wise old gentry.
Man with few word and all day his eye's down to earth,concentrating on what he knew best,on the sewing machine,his only techno gadget and a transistor radio as his companion.
Remain a Bachelor till death after the dismiss of my beloved grand-ma Nenek Sayan in 1968.How many of us still do 'till death depart'with our other half?
How I wonder!!

This written blog is not about him,but about a man who stood on firm ground and remain a loyal friend to Arwah ATUK.
He left a legacy in Malacca and much remembered by all fellows Old Guru-Guru Melayu of Malaccans.
As his name stood High and Tall among the contributors of the development of Malay Interlectuals in post independence era.
He is not a politician,neither do a nationalist but a visionary buisness man which put all his skill of hard work,determination and persistence will WINS.
Malacca in the pre and post Merdekah days was a sleepy hollow.
It slips away being the centre of trade and commerce because largely due to the fact,that Kuala Lumpur the new adminstritive city was laid and shift in 1923.
Since than Malacca lost its centre point.
Thanks to Yap Ah Loy the Chief Capitan MAFIA Cina'.
(If one wants to dispute those facts, pleased clarified it with Prof.Zainal Keling or Prof.Khoo Kay Kim,they are able to clarified futher)

One of the main legecy left by the Brits,is the 2 tiers Education system,the English schools medium and the Malay Medium.As a result of this diversity two set of text books are need and written in Bahasa Melayu and in English.
Without a single doubt,the problemmatic of logistic issues arise in the newly independency nation.
We want Malay schools but no text books writers in Bahasa Melayu,we do not have ample and capable writers in Maths,Science or vocational subjects in Bahasa Melayu and worst of it, we do not have able and qualified teachers to teach in Bahasa Melayu Maths,Science ot technical subject to our children.
As a result,the Kementerian then import Indonesian teachers to teach our children Maths and Science because most of the Malay teachers then,were only capable of teaching sejarah and ilmu alam or Bahasa Melayu then.

Thus,the question arise,where do we get those Malay text books?
In Malacca those days two prominent text bookshop are monopoloised by Lim Brothers and Tai Kuang Bookshop.
They only sell English Text books and mag.
Even me, gets my weekly Beano and Danny comics from Lim Brothers or the Uncle's Aneh shop junction of Jln Bunga Raya.The Hole in wall type of shops.

I remembered well this geniune smiling face Pak Aji.
Short and stout in nature.Always with a 'Songkok Hitam'.
Very loving in nature.Each time I goes to the shop I will always gets a sweets of 'Halls'Lemon in flavor from him.
His shop only stocks Malay book either novels,magazine and the main distributor for Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka in Melaka.Under his wings and supervision the mushrooming of small petty bookshop scattred in Melaka all over.
In Mesjid Tanah,Melimau.Jasin till the far fetch the boundry of Malacca states.The provisional schools are mostly of the Malay medium thus,TOKO BUKU ABBAS BANDUNG provides the missing gap of malay text books to the provisional schools.
The story of success of Tuan Hj.Abbas Md.Yatim has a long history.It is rather not discuss of how he built the book empire in Malacca.He was a dear friend of arwah datuk Pakeh.According to family ledgend,he arrive from Padang,atuk's kampong in view of being a teacher,which he was in Padang.
He teachers Quranic lesson in Kg.Banda Kaba.A pios man,He stays with arwah datuk in Kg.Banda Kaba together with nenek Sayan and ayah in the beginning stage and the rest is history.
I remembered well during my schooling days,when I have free time,I begin with Lim Brothers browsing for the latest Beano and Dandy and next the Tai Kuang ended up at his bookshop browing for latest Antrologi cerpen or novels.My early collection of Grand Pa (Dato'Samad Said)Salina etc...were all from his bookshop including Tongkat Warrant (Usman Awang),Keris Mas,Salmi Manja,Pram Meodya Anantantor,W.S Rendra,Khatijah Hashim,Latif Mohiddin (He is more of a painter),Fatimah Busu including Mastika,Dewan Masyarakat,Salina,Diskusi,Dewan Pelajar etc are still in my home library.Those where the first edition copies and I am proud owner of the first edition copies.

Without a single doubt Tuan Hj.Abbas Hj.Md.Yatim contribution to the malay community is well acknowledged.His buisness acuman without doubt set a precedent to the young new Malay interlectual breed in Malacca.
It is only via his bookshop the accumulation of knowledge grows among the Malay are noted.As the sahih Hadith "seek knowledge till China'

From my logic thought 'seek both knowledge and wealth as Tuan Hj.Abbas Bandung did"
I suppose it is full of barakah on 'hijrah'
and make the Awal Muharram 1429 more meaningfull

Al.Fatiha.
Allahyarham Tuan Hj.Abbas Hj.Md.Yatim pengasas 'TOKO BUKU ABBAS BANDUNG'

For me,the very least it is one of the most memorial event of the year and a nice a closing chapter for 2007 and of 1428H.

Apart I was once, on the sub-commitee on the street festival where I used to live Westbourne Park Villa No.74 to be precise on the famous for world's festive
"THE NOTTING HILL GATE FESTIVAL' held on every last bank holidays every summer,
I played a small part in the community project group on the 1984 street carnival event.I am sure those into Hugh Grant remember the film 'Notting Hill'together with the pettit and beautiful actress Julia Roberts.That book shop runs by Hugh Grant in that film was only a couple hundreds meters from the flat I was sharing with.The flat he live with that weirdo where it was shoot was my neighbour,when I left in 1986 the door is Greenand in the film it is still a Green door.Right opposite is the famous local joint runs but a Malaysian 'Makan Take-Away"
Yes my friends are all over.Some came and spend the hols with me at home.
I even get wedding invitation as far as Norway and Sweden.
A proper wedding reception.There was once I was invited to wedding reception at the Serpentine,Hyde Park a Lord's I mean an English Lord living next door neighbour to Windsor.Whoooops.......FULL ATTIRE ONLY PLEASED.
My gentry was explicit.I was fummish really after the reception coz' they do not serve 'Nasi Minyak' on an English Wedding Reception.
Straight Jacket Governor!!.It really means 'Trim and Proper'.
There was once I was invited to a dear friends daughter Baptist sort of our 'Bercukur Jambul',my oh my....full metal jacket.
Yes of course," Grand Dad" is 'The Grand Dad Duke of York'
Food glorious food for 24 hrs.
I could hardly had anymore food for a week aftre the event.
Thus,that was part of me growing up 'Learning how to learn'process.

This one was extra special.A simple with no extra pomp-pomp but bless with barakah(Insyallah).
Yes.siratul rahim is the key gate to heaven.
Friends near and far together make it happen
3o years is a long and winding road for most of us.
I jes'couldn't find wordS to describe my feeling.
It is just plutonic.

Thank you, to all Bekas Putra MHS'es old and young.
There is no generation gap.
All are beneath al mighty LAW.
Never be so high,the law is above you.
Be kind to your neighbours.
Be forgiving to your neighbours.
Be humble before your neighbours.

In this urban web-scab,those essential element are almost forgotten.
Why do my children seem to be afraid to play in the feilds again?

How To Fight Corruption -The Sufi Way

2007-11-03T10:58:00.001+08:00

Hmmm....too much to write about this days.Name it you find interesting topic for discussion particularly during this festive period,'THE OPEN HOUSE'conversation,
the onlv one made in Malaysia social event.
Name the topic from Child Abuse to Corruption plus our super nation on the merge of super corridor,something to turn our soil fertile again so that as citizens could eat decently and healthy.
Wishfull thinking on the brain of the politician

Corruption the topic of the day..hmmmm...

A a student asked me about the topic sometimes ago 'how to combat it effectively.
I was blank for an answer,couldn't find a decent answer,like any ministers I suppose jes' rambling about the topic which I find it frustrating.
Luckly,my ladyluck was on my side,a lazer sharp answer I could give was..
'asked Parliament to pass a bill to make an offence to both husband and wife.
If one accept and never reported to ACA.
Husband take bribes wife report,if wife take bribes husband report.
Hmmmm..if it unreported both goes to jail.

I asked a budding Datuk,his opinion on the subject matter,
his bold answer I kind of like it,
'let them vommit SHIT'..
So as a lay person all I would or rather could see is 'SHIT VOMITTING' every where.

Thank god,lillah, I have a clean tummy.
The clip will teach us some eating manners.Enjoy it while it last

Gemilangnya Merah Putih Ku

2007-09-21T02:20:00.002+08:00

After post mortem of our 50th.anniversary of Independence recently celebrated,
some puzzle question,which till now I still do not know the exect answers.
My Flag is still waving in front of my home porch,even though its past the Malaysia Day ,last 15th.September.
Perhaps,Prof.Khoo Kay Kim our prominant historian could clarified it.
It is not the flag but the history and the historical content of the flag which is important for generation to come.
It has great significant toward nation building and nation character.

Here's my story on nation's flag comparision.

Indonesian Proclamation of independence was declared on the 17th.August 1945 by Sukarno-Hatta.The pride of the nation'Bendera Merah-Putih'was flown officially then from the Istana President.
According to Indonesian history and it remain confirm,the first Bendera Merah-Putih was hand sown by Ibu Hatta from the cheapest cotton meterial of that particular era.
The original Bendera Merah Putih which was flown during the proclamation on the 17th.August 1945 was kept and preserve till now as a simbol of the Indonesian struggle against the aggression of the Dutch colonisation and it is flown only once a year during the official Flag rising at the Istana Bapak President.
The celebration is modest but meaningful.
No extra pomps-pomps but has historical significant and meaningful.
Any proud Indonesian of every generation could stand tall among any league of Nation pointing:
'that is our original flag hand sown by Ibu Hatta and Ibu Fathamawati, though it is from the cheapest cotton material but the struggle and the agony over the struggle remains intact with all Indonesian generation till now'.

Via recorded history the simbolic gesture of flying the original Flag is envidence enough to determine how strong the foundation of an Independent Nation.
The pride of the Nation, is the 'Flag' though its history.

How I wonder, what is the actual history of our flag?
Till now,I am not able to find the answer.
Perhaps of my own ignorance.
Who design the original flag flown on the 31st August 1957?
Where it is now? Arkib Negara??
Is the flag flown each year the original?
Some answers pleased?

Our historical roots has to be precisly recorded in our history books for future references.
That is my flag.As 'Robert Redford's words in his film 'The Last Castle'
and I will protect it.

Mengejar suatu Kemerdekaan Hakiki

2007-08-26T23:50:00.002+08:00

Gugurnya seorang com-patriot Allahyarham Srd.Annuar Johari-AlFatiha.
Dek,
Kami dilahirkan didalam fitrah
anugerah maha azali
Kami serba kekurangan tanpa bantuan kecanggihan,
Tanpa 'online' untuk menambahkan pengetahuan am.

Dek,
Kami dilahirkan tanpa ucapan singkatan abdja membolehkan
semua tawa riang
duka ditagih
simpati diraih
hanya untuk pasarana manja

Kami hanya diam
memperbetulkan permainan pistol-pistolan kayu kami yang usang
pelepah-pelepah nipah menjadi sorotan
roda-roda rim berputaran
Kami terhibur
Kami menhibur Kami bertempur
Kami akur pada waktu-waktu pilihan

Dek,
Berita kami terima hanya dari sumber yang satu
Lagu didendeng dari corong-corong mono usang
Teriakan azan hanya dari rumah-rumah azali usang
tanpa ulaman-ulaman keserian
tanpa sejadah tebal hingga menenggelamkan kaki-kaki hitam
tapi kami masih menyerah dalam redza

Dek,
Mimpi yang dikejar diselit oleh kata-kata fatwa dari hati yang pasrah
keakrapan kawan bukan diselitkan dengan piti jutaan
kekaguman jati diri sesama insan,kami pelajari sesama sendiri,
supaya dapat memperbetulkan langkah-langkah kami yang sumbang
melalui indra kami yang serba sederhana.

Kami masih boleh mendabik dada mesti pun
kami letih....
kami perih....
kami tidak secanggih tapi terus menabur benih-benih putih
untuk kalian menikmati keindahan dengan nyaman tanpa gangguan
berserta ketulan-ketulan rebutan
supaya kalian dibekalkan tanpa bebanan.

Dek,
Jangan kau leka
hanya alpa dengan Iswara
Jangan kau tawa kecacatan kami yang ada,
semasa kami cuba sedaya
semasa menyediakan pasarana yang ada
....nah Menara Angkasa
....nah Putrajaya
....nah Cyberjaya
....nah Mercu Tanda
....nah Kahzanah Bangsa atas nama yang terukir.

Eeeeiiii.....yaaaa,
keringat kami cuma setitis
tapi masih ada peninggalan kami untuk mu bukan?

Dek,
Teruruskah engkau?
Menguruskah engkau?
Terbagikah engkau?
Membagikah engkau?
segala-galanya?

Usah dicari erti negeri
sekiranya hati kau masih sangsi
Sekiranya mata kau belum suci
Hanya Maha Azali
pembuka diri melalui pintu-pintunya yang suci.

Merdeka Yang Hakiki.

Viva Mas Iwan...ayuh Mas kita tua sama-sama...

Do you still remember your first ever social revolutionary artis.Probably yours is Bob Dylan.Remember the words of 'Like a Rolling Stone', yes its a song full with melody and witty phrase.
But mine was the ledgendary Indonesian folk singer and song-writer Bapak Iwan Fals.
I listen and learn from Iwan Fals first before Bob Dylan or Grateful Dead.
My Uda in Jakarta used to sent me his tape during my student days,that was back in the 80's.

Man..this mestro really have something to say.As an honor to his contribution his article was written front page cover of The TIMES
His lyric is so punchy and able to transpose your senses on the social issues of the day.
His song and social message,remain his strongest element,provided by talented natural musician like Sawong Jabo and Bapak Setiawan Djodi.
A perfect combination.

'Dimana kah PermainanKu,
pelepah-pelepah dari kulit pisang as compare to kids nowday his coment was.
"cuba lihat permainan ini,
terbuat dari plastik ataupun besi,semuanya mahal dan tersedia.
Mereka menjadi cenggeng dan manja.
Kejernihan otak pun mulai pudar.
Mana permainan ku yang dulu."

The lirik is so down to earth and honest to god.
Its a song of the divesity between kids our days and our kids now.
I am not complaining about the gen.gap.
The new gen.group like 'Ungu' is awesome too.
But still consider him a mestro on his own right.
The musical combination between him and Bapak Setiawan Djodi,Bapak Ian Antionio has open and contribute a new chapter in Indonesia Rock Music.

Any way 'Old hippy never die they only turn grey'
I wish Mas Edwin Gutawan would compiled his memorial hits and conduct it in a Philharmonic Orkestra, like the one he did on 'Tribute to Koes Plus'.
Which is off course a 5 star rating.

My sister Ade Junaidah in Jakarta email me an intresting dairy entry of an Indonesian couple dated 19/07/2007.

I shared with you all,her witty observation on the dairy content:

BUKU HARIAN ISTERI19/07/07

Rabu Malam.Dia bertingkah aneh. Sebelumnya kami berjanji bertemu di Cafe. Aku shopping seharian dg teman-teman, sehingga mungkin dia kesal karena aku agak telat sampai di Cafe, tapi dia tak berkomentar. Ngobrolnya nggak nyambung, jadi aku usul kita pergi ketempat yang agak sepi supaya ngobrolnya lebih enak, dia setuju tapi tetap diam dan berjarak. Aku tanyakan apa yang salah - dia jawab, "Tak ada". Aku tanyakan apakah kesalahan ku yang membuatnya kesal. Dia bilang hal ini tak ada kaitannya dengan ku dan minta aku nggak usah khawatir.

Dalam perjalanan pulang, ku bilang aku mencintainya, dia cuma tersenyum tipis dan tetap menyetir. Aku tak bisa menjelaskan perangainya sore itu. Aku tak habis pikir kenapa dia tak menjawab, "aku cinta kamu juga". Sesampainya dirumah, aku merasa kehilangan dia, dan seolah-olah dia tak menghendaki ku lagi. Dia hanya duduk dan nonton depan TV; dia terlihat jauh dan menghilang.....

Akhirnya aku putuskan untuk tidur. Sekitar 10 menit kemudian, dia menyusul ke kamar. Aku nggak tahan lagi, kuputuskan untuk menghadapinya dan menanyakan soal sebenarnya, tapi dia langsung tertidur. Aku mulai menangis sampai tertidur. Aku tak tahu apa yang harus ku lakukan. Hidupku terasa kiamat...

BUKU HARIAN SUAMI19/07/07

Semalam INDONESIA kalah. SIALAAANN!!! Asuuu !!!

Compare to an entry made by a Malaysian couple.

Dairy Isteri 19/07/2007.

Tadi malam aku tanyakan padanya,

'Bang....boleh Bang....!dia tak menjawab.

Dia menarik selimut terus lalok.....

When 'Botak' came To Town - He's our New Kid In Town

2007-06-28T23:37:00.001+08:00

Another witty observation by our Prof.Azmi San.Dankesen Prof.I bust out loud to myself at the library today reading about it.

Intellegent and sharp observation and a good read too.

How I wish I still have the bold head photos taken when I was still in my greens.

How reversed the situation now as compare to before.

Here's my story,back then either one is into the John Lennon camp or the John Denver clan.

Either way,the schools disciplinary board would have a say on your look.

Any thing goes below collar by an inch, one firstly would land a good whacking 3 either from Mr.Kumaradass or Mr.Teja Singh,makes no diffrent,later a good imprompto hair cut at the pleasure His Honorable Displinary Master.

That's the end of your weekend dating with the MGHS gals.Reasons is 'Malu Nak Keluar'.

However,mine was vice versa.

I was naught but not to the highest level of blood sucking devil.

On the whole,got beating here and there which is part of school boys diaries, I suppose.

There was one year where I decided to go serious on my studies.

The crucial year of public examination LCE.

Thus, approx.6 months before the exam I decided to bold my head,hoping that I could stay put on my study tables and concentrate on the exam totally.

Hopefully with LCE's flying colors I would be selected to one of the prestige colleges ie.RMC,wow what a wishful thinking that particular point in time.

However,I did not realised there was a student protest on the Elective Student Council General Meeting,at the very same day when I decided to have my new look.

We were the lower sec.thus only the upper Sec. was entittle to the democratic process of electing new Student Council.That was I first experience of true democratic in Malaysia.

From what info I gathered,there was these two rival groups persuing their nominated members to the council.The meeting ends up with bad mouth bashing as usual and chairs rocking and stink bombing.

The defeating team supporters as far I could remember was the Grand Funk Rail Roads guys.Being losers they decided to protest for the conduct and the irregularity of the ballot which took place.

The whole troops of boys decided to bald their head as sign of protest.

All I could remember,the next following morning,I was march together with the uppers Sec.guys labels as the 'Botak Gang' gets the best 3 in the assembly and being accused of being memebrs of the 'Lrg.Panjang notorious Gangs togethers with some of the seniors whom I don't even know their names till now.

Me the only lower sec.guy with bold head was charge for being the recruiter for would be future gang members.

Poor me,wrong timing trying be smart.

Who says there is Justice in this world?

Its whole truth noting but the truth

Good Bye Aimi Ku Sayang...God Be with You Insyallah

2007-06-07T23:02:00.001+08:00

It's nice to see a child turn to be a pretty young lady.

Aimi left for Melbourne,Australia today at 9.30pm MAS flight.She's a daughter to me though I am only an uncle to her.

I am sought of bouncer to her and Nana her younger sister.

Guarding and motivating since they were a child.I could say they were our pride and joy.

Did pretty well during last SPM exam with 7 A1 and 2 A2's.The result if it were during my time would be a definate on any JPA'S overseas scholarship's list but sad to say now,with the overboard straight A's it's impossible even to apply for one.

I for one have nothing against straight A's,but a little overboard of ossession of A's is a bit worrying coz' it has multiple effect on child phsyco enviroment.

Aimi will definately get a place at any local Matriculation course of her choise if she decides to do local but she has set her mind to go overseas.

Me since I myself study abroad encourage it,firstly it was overseas which broaden our horizen and 2nly.self development and self confidence in leading a life in the future.

Paper qualification are ample any where, but one's out look in life are rather differs if we are sheltered at home.

Those are the essential element in fighting sprites in life.

We were at first sceptical of any sponsorship offer,knowing fully well the competition is,but one good samaritan offers a full fledge sponsorship right till graduation.I would call it golden opportunities of the life time.

Allah bless the golden heart.Allah gives what he wishes to anyone deserve.

Aimi's deserve to be among the bright young generation of scholars.

Be well my 'mon petit la'per (French).God protects you and our love to you remains the same.

We are proud of you Dato and Datin,May Allah bestows rightoues to you and family.Amin

Apa Seterusnya...........

Sinopsis

**Article ini ditulis oleh penulis sebelum terputusnya keputusan dibuat oleh Mahkamah Persekutuan terhadap kes yang terbabit.
Ianya merupakan suatu kertas kerja bagi programme Dip.Shariah dan Legal Practices IIUM bagi sessi 2006/07.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Sejarah kemasokan ugama Islam ke Tanah Melayu dapat dikesan melalui Kitab Sejarah Melayu karya Tun Sri Lanang.Ketaksufan bangsa Melayu terhadap Sulatn-Sultan mereka dapat di kesan melalui keberlebihan “glorifikasi’ pengislaman Sultan Muzaffar Shah oleh pengarang-pengarang terdahulu.
Fables mengenai keislaman Sultan Muzaffar Shah yang dikatakan memelok agama Islam setelah menemui Rasullulah s.a.w. di dalam mimpi baginda merupakan andaian dan dapat kita rumuskan betapa tingginya pandangan masyarakat feudal terhadap kedaulatan dan keberkatan sultan –sultan Melayu terdahulu.

Fakta sejarah secara jelas membuktikan Islam dibawa masuk ke Melaka di awal kurun ke 12 melalui pedagang-pedagang daripada Gujerat dan Hardat Maut. Pedagang pedagang tersebut bukan sahaja berdagang ke Melaka tetapi penerimaa mereka dikalangan orang-orang istana adalah berasaskan kepada cara pedagang pedagang tersebut bergaul secara beradap dan bertata-susila berteraskan ajaran AlQuran dan Sunnah Rasullulah s.a.w Tarikan kepada Islam yang dibawa oleh pedagang-pedagang Islam kepada masyarakat tempatan adalahlah berasaskan contoh dan tauladan Muhammad s.a.w.Perkembangan akhlak yang mulia dan pengujudan suatu sistem keadilan berteraskan sepenohnya kepada ajaran AlQuran.

Harus diingat,masyarakat Melayu feudal sebelum kedatangan Islam ke Nusantara berpaut kepada animisma dan Hindu.
Kerajaan Islam dan tamaddun Islam di awal abad ke12 adalah dibawah naungan kerajaan bani Abbasiyah,dimana keunggulan Islam amat tersohor didalam sejarah Islam .Ramai cendikawan Islam lahir di zaman tersebut. Keunggulan Islam di zaman tersebut menjadikan pihak gereja di Europa cemburu dengan kemajuan yang dicapai oleh Kerajaan Bani Abbasiyah sehingga empire terakhir iaitu Kerajaan Islam Ottaman Turki.

Jelas dari fakta, sejarah Islam dan bangsa Melayu amat sinonim Ianya tidak dapat dipisahkan. Jika dikupas dari sejarah,proses pemmurtadan bangsa Melayu dapat dikesan semenjak kedatangan Portugis ke Melaka pada sekitar 1500.Bukan sekadar di Tanah Melayu malah, Portugis juga meninggalkan kesan yang mendalam keatas masyarakat tempatan di Goa,India yang menjadi benteng penempatan utama pedagang Portugis.Pengkristianan masyarakat Goa di India adalah berasaskan slogan pedagang Portugis iaitu ‘Gold,Glory and God’
Perkahwinan atau pergaulan bebas antara askar-askar Portugis dengan gadis-gadis Melayu yang kurang didikan agama yang gitu, terbukti, sehingga kini melahir suatu nasab ie.keturunan bagi lingua-lingo orang-orang tempatan sebagai ‘Graggo’(tidak diketahui asal usul perkataan tersebut) ,iaitu kacukan Portugis-Melayu dimana terlahirnya satu kumpulan anak-anak Melayu yang tersisir daripada satu kumpulan Melayu yang berbudaya, beradat resam dan beragamakan Islam.

Secara sedar atau tidak proses asimilisasi masyarakat tersebut telah berjaya mengenepikan hukum syarak akan nasab keturunan ketidak kesahan taraf anak kepada sah dengan penerimaan undang-undang sivil yang di bawa oleh kuasa asing dan diterima pakai olah mahkamah sehingga terpindanya Per.121(1A). Dari perspektif hukum syarak, ketidak kesahan anak diluar nikah akan kekal dan tidak boleh di perbetulkan dari segi status tersebut. Maka secara total nasab keturunan ketidak kesahan akan kekal didalam masyarakat tersebut selama-lamanya.
Untuk mengambil jalan yang mudah proses mengkristiankan bangsa Melayu bermula dengan kedatangan kuasa asing berbeza dengan pedagang-pedagang Islam yang membawa akidah keislaman yang syumul.

Issue murtad atau riddah merupakan suatu issue yang amat hangat di perdebatkan masa kini oleh setiap lapisan masyarakat Malaysia..Bermula dengan issue habeas corpus kes Kementerian Dalam Negeri v Jamaluddin Othman @ Jesus Jamaluddin (1) dimana melalui fakta dan alasan tahanan yang di keluarkan oleh pihak KDN ialah:

Alasan-Alasan Untuk Perintah Tahanan
‘Bahawa kamu, Jamaluddin bin Othman alias Yeshua Jamaluddin, sejak tahun
1985 hingga ditangkap pada 27 Oktober 1987, telah melibatkan diri dalam
satu rancangan untuk menyebarkan agama Kristian di kalangan orang-orang
Melayu. Kegiatan kamu itu boleh mendorong kepada timbulnya suasana
ketengangan dan permusuhan di antara masyarakat Islam dengan masyarakat
Kristian di negara ini dan boleh memudharatkan keselamatan negara.’(2)
Mahkamah Federal melalui keputusan bersama yang dibuat oleh YAA-YAA Abd.Hamid,Hashim Yeop Sani dan Ajib Singh,telah menolak rayauan yang dikemukan oleh pihak Peguam Negara bahawa walaupun pihak Kerajaan mempunyai alasan yang kukoh untuk menyabitkan tertudoh dibawah Akta Keselamatan dalam negeri dan menteri melalui peruntukan yang di beri melalui Sek.8(1) Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri(2)),tetapi Menteri tidak mempunyai kuasa untuk menyekat seseorang individu daripada mengamal dan menganut agama yang dipercayai saperti yang terkandung di dalam Per.11 Perlembagaan Persekutuan dan seseorang menteri tidak mempunyai kuasa untuk menyekat mana-mana individu daripada menghadari mana-mana mesyurat atau ‘pubic seminar’ bagi tujuan keagamaan walaupun ianya adalah bertujuan menarik orang-orang Melayu keagama lain selain daripada Islam.

Dalam erti yang ringkas dapat dirumuskan bahawa hak-hak kebebasan seseorang rakyat untuk menganut dan mengamal ajaran agamanya tanpa sebarang gangguan di jamin sepenohnya saperti terkandung di Per.11 Perlembagaan Persekutuan oleh pihak judiciary.
Harus diingatkan kes tersebut sebelum terpindanya Per.121(1A) Perlembagaan Persekutuan dan Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Shariah masih lagi di peringkat pengubalan.Maka dengan tersendirinya kes tersebut diikuti sebagai ‘a binding precedent’bagi kes-kes’seterusnya sehingga termenterinya pindaan Per.121(1A) dan termenterinya Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Sharia (Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1997(Akta559)

Ditto dengan kes Jamaluddin,dan termenterinya pindaan Per121(1A) dan Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Shariah (WP)1997,masyarakat khasnya bangsa Melayu yang beragama Islam semacam tergamam dengan bermacam-macam kes permohonan untuk keluar daripada agama Islam oleh orang-orang Melayu itu sendiri.Ia seolah olah cuba mencabar kewibawaan serta kemantapan bangsa Melayu. yang berbajukan Melayu dan yang disarongkan dengan akidah keislaman semenjak ratusan tahun.
Alasan dan bantahan yang dikemukakan oleh pihak yang ingin memurtadkan diri mereka dari segi procedur ialah pembelaan hujah berpandukan Per.11 Perlembagaan Persekutuan, yang menyebut:

11(1) Tiap-tiap orang adalah berhak menganuti dan mengamalkan ugamanya dan tertakluk kepada Fasal(4),memgembangkan ugamanya.

Harus diingatkan juga tertera di Fasal (4)

11(4) Undang-undang Negeri dan mengenai Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur,Putra Jaya dan Labuan,undang-undang persekutuan BOLEH mengawal atau MENYEKAT pengembangan apa-apa iktikad atau kepercayaan ugama antara orang-orang yang menganuti ugama Islam

11(5) Perkara ini tidaklah membenarkan apa-apa perbuatan yang berlawanan dengan undang-undang am mengenai KETENTERAMAN AWAM,kesihatan awam atau AKHLAK(4)

Persoalannya:

a) Adakah benar,pembikinan Islamic Malaysia tercabar dan sengaja diprovokasi dan di sensasikan oleh pihak pihak tertentu yang cuba untuk mengkafirkan negara ini melalui procedur mahkamah.?

b)Adakah benar,bangsa Melayu yang sudah sinonim dengan Islam sudah mulai utuh akan process globanisasi?

c)Adakah benar,Islam yang di fahami oleh sebilang besar Melayu yang berugama Islam diMalaysia menggangap Islam itu hanya untuk upacara rasmi sahaja?

d)Adakah revilitasi and rehibilitasi akidah Islamiah yang di asaskan pada sekitar 1970’an gagal mencapai wawasannya dengan berita pengmurtadaan bangsa Melayu secara beramai-ramai?

e)Apakah sebenarnay fungsi kerajaan ,mahkamah dan pihak berkuasa Shariah sebagai pemangkin kepada visi Islamic Malaysia,apa yang dikatakan kerajaan yang berteraskan Islam dalam menangani masallah tersebut?

f)Bolehkah secara amnya dan masyarakat Melayu khasnya kompromi dalam issue ugama?
Kertas ini cuba mengupas bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shari’ah melalui peruntukan di Per.121 (1A) Pelembagaan Persekutuan. Dalam menangani massalah murtad terhadap kes-kes Lina Joy (5) dan Moorty (6).Dua kes contoh dimana masallah vital yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat Melayu khasnya dan Islam itu sendiri.Pertindihan bidang kuasa yang di beri melalui Per.121.(1A) dan bidang kuasa Jabatan Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan yang di beri melalui Akta Pentadbiran Undang-Undang Islam(Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1993 (Akta 505)

1.Apakah yang membuat perlunya suatu pindaan yang drastic terhadap Per.121 sebelumnya?

2.Mampukah bangsa Melayu melawan arus gelombang globanisasi dan arus penyerapan gelombang pergerakan anti agama melalui pakatan antarabangsa?

3.Adakah perlunya satu tafsiran baru terhadap Bangsa Melayu?

4.Bolehkah bangsa Melayu secara kolektif menerima definasi bangsa Melayu sebagai suatu rumpun bangsa tetapi berlainan agama?

5.Bolehkah agama Islam dan bangsa Melayu itu dipisahkan?

6.Adakah Per.11 Pelembagaan Persekutuaan menjadi ‘batu penghalang’ dalam pembinaan Islam Hakiki ?

7. Adakah process pengislaman negara Malaysia gagal?

Diakhiri dengan perbandingan antara Hukum Kanum Melaka dan Akta Pentadbiran UndangUndang Islam (Wilayah Persekutuan) 1993 (Akta 505) dan Perlembagaan Persekutuan Per.8,11 dan 121(1A)
Keberkesanannya dan kesinambungan dan relevant nya kini demi survival Ugama,Bangsa dan Negara.

Bismillah Hir Rahman Nir Rahim

Process perundangan di Malaysia boleh dikatakan bermula semenjak tertubuhnya kerajaan Kesultanan Melayu Melaka,dengan pengislaman dan pengmasyhoraan Sultan Muzaffar Shah 1446-1456.(1)
Struktur pentadbiran Melayu Melaka berlandaskan undang-undang Islam yang dikodifikasikan di dalam Hukum Kanun Melaka.Malah pihak pentadbiran Kerajaan Inggeris mengakui akan keujudan and pemakaian sebahagian daripada Undang-Undang Islam di Tanah Melayu melalui keputusan didalam kes pembicaraan Re:The Goods of Abdullah (2) dan didalam kes Fatimah v Logan (3),walau bagaimanapun mahkamah melalui penghujahan Hakim Hacket , merumuskan di dalam kes Fatimah v Logan bahawa,walaupun Undang-Undang Islam diiktiraf dan diguna pakai sebelum kedatangan Inggeris keTanah Melayu tetapi, menurut pandangan nya :

“…bilamana pedagang Inggeris berpengkalan di sesebuah negeri yang diduduki atau disesebuah negeri yang tidak bertamadun bukan sahaja pedagang Inggeris tersebut membawa bersama mereka undang-undang mereka dari Tanah Besar ke Tanah Jajahan Baru,malah undang-undang Inggeris yang dibawa oleh mereka terpakai keatas penduduk dan penghuni tanah jajahan baru tersebut.” (4)

Tidak dapat dinafikan kedatangan Inggeris membawa bersama mereka undang-undang Inggeris khususnya ‘the common law of England’ dan ‘the rules of equity’.
Ianya dibawa masuk melalui Charter,melalui peguam-peguam dan hakim-hakim yang terlatih di England dan kemudiannya melalui undang-undang bertulis saperti ordinan,enakment,kanun,kaedah dan peraturan,dan juga tidak dapat dinafikan bahawa kekukuhan penggunaan undang-undang Inggeris dapat dilihat sehingga kini setelah 49 tahun merdeka,malah mahkamah masih lagi terikat dengan pengtakrifan Sek.3 dan Sek. 5 Civil Law Act 1956 dimana penggunaan ‘common law’ Inggeris dan ‘rules of equity’ terpakai bilamana terdapat lacuna didalam undang-undang yang diluluskan oleh Parlimen Malaysia.

Saperti mana-mana kolonist-kolonist lain,kolonisma membawa impak yang amat mendalam keatas sesebuah masyarakat yang berbudaya,socio-lingua and peradapan yang berbeza dengan penjajah yang mentadbir tanah jajahannya.Pemakaian sistem pemerintahan yang berkiblatkan kearah Westminister merupakan titik bermulanya penjajahan minda terhadap anak-anak tempatan.Maka dengan sengaja atau tak sengaja keberkesanan ‘sistem pecah dan perintah’ Inggeris berjaya menujudkan sebuah kelas menegah Melayu-Inggeris didalam sistem pentadbiran mereka.Impak yang amat ketara ialah pengujudan sistem pentadbiran Malayan Civil Service (MCS), dimana anak-anak tempatan yang berkelayakan dilantik menjadi pentadbir sebagai pemangkin pentadbiran Inggeris.Anak-anak tempatan yang dilantik dan diasah,menjadikan socio budaya Inggeris sebagai amalan kehidupan harian mereka,maka, bilamana terujudnya sistem kelas menegah Melayu pentadbir yang berkiblatkan keTanah Jajahan maka secara otomatik terujudnya golongan yang akan menolak secara mutlak adap budaya tempatan sebagai teras and tunggak perundangan yang sedia ada didalam sistem perundangan Negara.

Ini dapat dilihat pada jarak masa yang diambil oleh Parliamen untuk meminda Perkara 121 (1A) Perlembagaan Persekutuan.(5) yang memperuntukkan:

‘Mahkamah-mahkamah yang disebutkan dalam Fasal(1) tidaklah boleh mempunyai bidang kuasa berkenaan dengan apa-apa perkara dalam bidang kuasa mahkamah SHARIAH.
Secara otomatis dengan pindaan Per.121(1A) terujudlah dua sistem penghakiman iaitu Mahkamah Sivil yang menguna pakai sistem perundangan sivil yang diasaskan oleh penjajah Inggeris dan sistem penghakiman Shariah dimana secara jelas mengariskan sistem penghakiman Syariah selaras dengan kehendak peruntukan Per. 3(1) Perlembagaan Persekutuan dimana secara jelas Pelembagaan mengariskan

‘Ugama Islam ialah ugama Persekutuan,tetapi ugama-ugama lain boleh diamalkan dengan aman dan damai dimana-mana bahagian Persekutuan’.(6)

Pemakaian dan penerimaa mahkamah terhadap pindaan 121(1A) terhadap warganegara yang berugama Islam dengan jelas dapat dilihat dari penghujaan dan keputusan Mahkamah Persekutuan oleh YAA Tan Sri Harun Hashim (ayh) didalam kes Mohammad Habibullah v Faridah bte Dato Talib (7).YAA Tan Sri Harun Hashim merumuskan:

‘…tujuan Parliamen dengan adanya Perkara 121(1A) ialah untuk menyingkirkan
bidangkuasa Mahkamah –Mahkamah Tinggi di dalam mana-mana perkara
yang termasuk di dalam bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah’(8)Dengan ertikata lain secara dasarnya pindaan itu dilakukan adalah untuk memindahkan kuasa Mahkamah Sivil ke Mahkamah Shariah bagi mengadili kes-kes yang bersangkutan dengan warganegara yang berugama Islam dan secara mutlaknya mahkamah sivil tidak lagi mempunyai kuasa untuk mendengar kes-kes yang bersangkutan dengan warganegara yang berugama Islam.

YAA Tun Mohammad Azmi (ayh) didalam kes yang sama,melalui penggulungan hujahnya berpendapat ;

‘adalah HAKIKAT yang terdapat di Malaysia bahawa rakyat yang menganut dan mengamalkan ugama selain daripada ugama Islam adalah dijamin dibawah Perlembagaan Persekutuan akan ketenteraman mereka mengamal dan menganut ugama mereka.Ini juga bereti bahawa orang-orang Islam di Malaysia diberi jaminan bahawa mereka boleh menganut dan mengamalkan ugama mereka iaitu Islam dengan aman dan tenteram KERANA Islam di Malaysia mempunyai kedudukan yang amat istimewa.’(9)
Penghujahan didalam kes Habibullah v Faridah Dato Talib merupakan ‘test kes’ terhadap penerimaan pakai tafsiran Per.121(1A) kepada kes-kes yang seterusnya.Prinsip ikutan dan ianya mengikat mahkamah bawahan seterusnya menerima pakai tafisiran yang telah digariskan oleh Mahkamah Persekutuan.
Ini dapat di ikuti kepada kes-kes yang dikendali selepas kes Habibullah.
Didalam keputusan,Md.Hakim Lee v Majlis Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan(10)dan Soon Singh v PERKIM Kedah (11) Mahkamah Persekutuan memutuskan bahawa seseorang itu masih lagi seorang berugama Islam walaupun ianya melalui suatu prosess yang sah melalui ‘poll deeds’sehingga Mahkamah Shariah memutuskan bahawa ianya bukan lagi beragama Islam.

Didalam Lim Chan Seng v Jabatan Agama Islam Pulau Pinang (12),dimana persoalan yang timbul ialah adakah Mahkamah Tinggi masih mempunyai kuasa mendengar terhadap orang yang memelok ugama Islam tetapi melalui ‘pool deeds’telah mengistiharkan dirinya terkeluar daripada ugama Islam?
YA Abd.Hamid,mengakui bahawa Mahkamah Tinggi masih mempunyai kuasa mendengar kes tersebut kerana berdasarkan terdapat ‘lacuna’didalam undang-undang Pentadbiran Jabatan Ugama Islam Pulau Pinang kerana tidak terdapat apa-apa peruntukan didalam Enakmen Pentadbiran Hal Ehwal Agama Islam Negeri Pulau Pinang 1993 mengenai prosedur untuk keluar dari agama Islam.
Harus diingatkan hal ehwal yang bersangkutan dengan agama Islam dan Adat Istiadat orang Melayu jatuh di dalam bidang kuasa Kerajaan negeri saperti terkandung di dalam Jadual KeSembilan,Senarai Negeri(13)Kecuali bagi Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur,Labuan dan Putrajaya.

Ini bererti kuasa untuk membuat undang-undang Islam berserta dengal hal ehwal pentadbiran ugama Islam secara muktlak jatuh keatas jentera pentadbiran Kerajaan negeri.Ianya berkuasa sepenohnya menggubal undang-undang syariah berpandukan hukum syarak,tetapi undang-undang yang di gubal hendaklah selari dan tidak bercanggah dengan intipati dan asparisi Pelembagaan Persekutuan,dimana sekiranya terdapat percanggahan maka Undang-undang Persekutuan mengatasinya dan undang-undang negeri tersebut adalah terbatal secara otomatis.
Ianya termaktub di dalam Per.4 (1), Perlembagaan Persekutuan;

4(1)Perlembagann ini adalah undang-undang UTAMA Persekutuan dan apa-apa undang-undang yang diluluskan selepas Merdeka dan yang berlawanan dengan Perlembagaan ini hendaklah TERBATAL setakat yang berlawanan itu

4(3)Sahnya sesuatu undang-undang yang dibuat oleh Parlimen atau Badan Perundangan Negeri tidak boleh dipersoalkan atas alasan bahawa undang-undang itu adalah membuat peruntukan mengenai apa-apa perkara yang Parlimen atau mengikut mana yang berkenaan,(14)
Persoalan yang timbul ialah,mengapakah peri pentingnya sehingga perlunya meminda Perkara 121(1A) Perlembagaan Persekutuan tersebut?
Jika di kaji sejarah ketamaadunan Melayu,tidak dapat tidak,unsur Islam amat sinonim dengan bangsa Melayu.Malah tertera diPelembagaan Persekutuan takrif bangsa Melayu terkandung diBahagian 12 Am dan Perbagai.
Perkataan Melayu itu sendiri tertera di Per.152 iaitu Bahasa Kebangsaan ialah Bahasa Melayu dan juga amat tidak ketara jika diandaikan saperti tertera di Per.153 (1)

153(1) Adalah menjadi tanggungjawab Yang diPertuan Agong memelihara kedudukan istimewa orang-orang Melayu dan bumiputra mana-mana Negeri Borneo dan kepentingan sah kaum-kaum lain mengikut peruntukan Perkara ini

Malah Pelembagaan Persekutuan itu sendiri menjamin melalui Per.89 akan hak keistimewaan Tanah Rezab orang Melayu dimana digariskan bahawa tanah rezab orang Melayu boleh terus menerus menjadi tanah rezab orang Melayu mengikut undang-undang itu sehingga selainnya diperuntukan oleh Badan Perundangan Negeri itu dengan suatu Enakmen.
Maka secara otomatis,bila sahaja disebut Bangsa Melayu,secara otomatik diandaikan bahawa Bangsa Melayu beradat resamkan Melayu dan beragama Islam.Tidak dapat tidak perkataan Islam itu dengan sendirinya amat sinonim dengan Bangsa Melayu.
Jika di kaji secara terperinci fakta sejarah Tanah Melayu,titik bermulanya penjajahan Inggeris secara langsung melalui Perjanjian Pangkor 1874,penerimaa Resident British didalam sistem pentadbiran Negeri hanya tertumpu kepada hal ehwal pentadbiran kerajaan tempatan tetapi secara jelas syarat penerimaa Penasihat British oleh Kesultanan Melayu Perak ketika itu adalah tidak melibatkan apa-apa yang bersangkutan dengan adat resam Melayu dan Agama Islam di Perak.Ini diikuti seterusnya dinegeri yang bergabung didalam Negri-Negri Melayu Bersekutu iatu Perak,Selangor,Negeri Sembilan dan Pahang(FMS) dan sehingga terujudnya Negeri-Negri Melayu Tak Bersekutu (UFMS) iatu Kelantan,Trengganu,Kedah dan Johor bahawa syarat penerimaan Penasihat British ialah tidak mencampuri hal ehwal adat resam budaya Melayu dan pentadbiran Agama Islam.Ianya sehingga kini masih dibawah kuasa mutlak Kesultanan Melayu. Saperti terkandung di Jadual Ke 9 senarai negeri.

Perlu diingat bidang kuasa mahkamah Shariah diperingkat permulaan terujudnya Negara Malaysia iatu pada 16hb.September 1963 hanya terhad kepada undang-undang keluarga Islam.Ianya hanya bersangkutan tentang hukum hakam perkahwinan dan perceraian,selain daripada mendengar pertikaian hal ehwal pentadbiran harta pusaka dan wakaf selain daripada hal ehwal pentadbiran Agama Islam saperti menentukan tarikh bermulanya berpuasa dan berhari raya.Pihak kerajaan dan masyarakat pada waktu tersebut masih dicengkam oleh minda cololonisma.Kehakiman Shariah semacam terpinggir oleh bangsa sendiri dan pengertian Islam yang terkandung didalam Per.3(1) ditafsir oleh pihak mahkamah atasan waktu itu Islam sebagai lambang upacara rasmi sahaja.Ini dapat dilihat melalui penghujaan keputusan penghakiman dalam kes Che Omar Che Soh v PP(15)
Kuasa bagi kesalahan jenayah pada asalnya terkandung didalam Syariah Court (Criminal Jurisdiction) Act 1965,bidang kuasa jenayah amatlah terpencil kes-kes yang di kendalikan oleh Mahkamah Kadi dan had untuk menjatuhkan hukuman hanya memenjarakan bagi kesalahan Jenayah Shariah ialah tidak melebihi 6 bulan penjara atau denda yang tidak melebihi $1,000.Had bidang kuasa Jenayah Shariah dan bidang kuasa Hakim Mahkamah Shariah kini telah dipinda pada tahun 1988 selaras dengan pindaan Per.121 (1A) dimana definasi Jenayah Shariah di perluaskan senarai kesalahannya dan bidang kuasa Hakim Mahkamah Shariah saperti terkandung di Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Syariah (Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1997 dan bidang kuasa hukuman setelah di pinda pada tahun 1988 kini menjadikan hukuman penjara maxima 3 tahun penjara atau denda tidak melebehi $5,000 atau sebatan tidak melebihi 6 sebatan atau kombinasi mana-mana dua hukuman tersebut.
Setengah golongan akdemik(16) berpendapat Akta Jenayah Shariah yang diluluskan pada tahun 1988 itu tidak meliputi keWilayah Persekutuan maka dengan sendirinya Akta tersebut tidak terpakai di Wilayah Persekutuan.
Walau bagaimana pun dengan termenterinya Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Shariah (Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1997 (Akta 559),dilengkapi dengan Akta Jenayah Procedure Shariah (Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1997 (Akta 560) dan Akta Keterangan Mahkamah Shariah(Wilayah –Wilayah Persekutuan)1997 (Akta 561) lengkaplah satu set perundangan Shariah bagi kawasan Wilayah Persekutuan,dimana suatu sistem kehakiman berpandukan Shariah dan berteraskan hukum Syarak yang comprehensive dan dinanti-nantikan oleh masyarakat Islam secara amnya.Perlu dijelaskan bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah terhadap kes-kes shariah tidak ada sebarang kerumitan dalam mentafsir kesalahan Shariah.In adalah kerana kesalahan jenayah Shariah adalah kesalahan yang kebanyakannya berteraskan kesalahan berlandaskan kesalahan yang di tegah oleh ugama Islam yang hakiki dan kesalahan tersebut juga merupakan kesalahan yang terkandung didalam Akta Jenayah ie.Penal Code yang dibawa bidang kuasa Federal.
Sebagai contoh kesalahan ‘Khalwat ,Liwat dan ‘Zina’ yang tergaris di bawah Sek 23 bagi Zina and Liwat di bawah Sek.25.AKJS(WP)1997 (Akta559)

Sek.27 AKJ(WP) 1997 dimana ‘liwat’digariskan sebagai (a) mana-mana orang lelaki yang didapati berada bersama dengan seorang atau lebih daripada seorang prempuan yang bukan isteri atau mahramnya atau (b) seorang prempuan yang didapati berada bersama dengan seorang atau lebih daripada seorang lelaki yang bukan suami atau mahramnya,dimana-mana tempat yang terselindung atau di dalam bilik dalam keadaan yang boleh menimbulkan syak bahawa mere sedang melakukan perbuatan yang tidak bermoral..(17)

Persoalan yang timbul apakah yang tersirat di dalam benak penggubal-penggubal Suruhanjaya Reid sewaktu mengubal Per.3(1) dan Per.8 dan 11 Perlembagaan Persekutuan pada tahun 1956?
Perdebatan akdemik mungkin berterusan dalam membincangkan adakah ianya bererti ‘penafisran literal’ iaitu agama Islam adalah agama rasmi Negara .dan juga boleh diertikan sekiranya ianya ugama rasmi juga secara mutlak bererti sistem dan susunan ketata kenegaraan bertunaskan ‘Islamic Principle’.Saperti terkandung di dalam AlQuran,

Surah Saba’ 28
‘Dan tiadalah Kami mengutusmu (wahai Muhammad) melainkan untuk umat manusia seluruhnya, sebagai Rasul pembawa berita gembira (kepada orang-orang yang beriman) dan pemberi amaran (kepada orang-orang yang ingkar); akan tetapi kebanyakan manusia tidak mengetahui (hakikat itu)’(18)

Negara Islam bererti sebuah negara yang bertunaskan prinsip-prinsip asas ketata kenegaraan negara Islam serta ciri-ciri sebuah negara Islam secara mutlak yang berpegang kepada Al Quran dan Sunnah dan ijmak ulama muqtakin sebagai panduan Negara.(19)
Ini berasaskan ayat Al Quran di dalam Surah An Nisa ayat 59

An-Nisaa’ 59

‘Wahai orang-orang yang beriman, taatlah kamu kepada Allah dan taatlah kamu kepada Rasulullah dan kepada "Ulil-Amri" (orang-orang yang berkuasa) dari kalangan kamu. Kemudian jika kamu berbantah-bantah (berselisihan) dalam sesuatu perkara, maka hendaklah kamu mengembalikannya kepada (Kitab) Allah (Al-Quran) dan (Sunnah) RasulNya jika kamu benar beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat. Yang demikian adalah lebih baik (bagi kamu) dan lebih elok pula kesudahannya.’(20)Penghujahaan YAA Tun Salleh Abbas didalam kes Re:Che Omar Che Soh amat-amat tidak disenangi oleh golongan pendesak yang mahukan suatu sistem pentadbiran dan Islamic political sistem di Malaysia,setelah kesan sampingan sekularisma membawa impak yang amat ketara dari segi ketidak keseimbangan pengagihan social,ekonomi dan political antara kaum.Ianya berasaskan demi ‘political survival’ bangsa Melayu dimasa hadapan

Impak yang di bawa oleh sekuralisma dan kapitalisma dipersoalkan oleh golongan crediakawan Islam yang telah diberi kesempatan menimba ilmu di Al’Azhar,Mesir serta institusi-institusi pengajian tinggi dinegara-negara Jordon,Syria,Turkey sekitar tahun tahun 1980’an.Ianya berasaskan ‘revitalise dan rehibilitasi’ process pengislaman negara yang di pelupori oleh ABIM sekitar tahun-tahun 1970’an.

Harus diingatkan pergolakan politik dunia bergolak dengan amat ketara di sekitar tahun-tahun 80’an.Dengan terjunamnya tembok pemisah antara German Timur dan Barat maka terkuburlah juga empire Komunis Soviet Rusia.
Dunia dikejutkan oleh suatu kuasa besar,yang sepanjang penubohan negara tersebut pada 1776 sehingga sekarang ianya bercirikan negara yang suka berperang.
Sebut sahaja U.S.A dunia akan mentertawakannya sebagai ‘Negara yang kalah dibenteng peperangan tapi menang strategi peperangan’(21)
Ini terbukti pada kemaluan mereka di Peperangan Vietnam 1960-1975 dengan terjatuhnya Saigon kepada ‘tentera berkaki ayam’.

Bilamana ekonomi bergantung sepenohnya kepada minyak sebagai pengerak tenaga dan sumber ekonomi utama,tidak perlu dibuktikan bahawa motif pergolakan seterusnya ialah ‘imprialisma minyak’ di bumi Arab dimana juga Islam adalah ugama hakiki dibumi tersebut.Pergolakan di bumi Arab berterusan bukan sahaja peperangan minyak tetapi tidak kelebihan jika kita andaikan bahawa peperangan tersebut ada keseimbangannya dengan ‘Perang Salib’ yang berlaku diantara tentera-tentera gabungan Kristian dan tentera Islam untuk merebut Juruselam diabad 11.(Crusade War)
Bolehkah diandaikan bahawa perang kini adalah perang penghapusan umat Islam didunia?
Adakah ianya dirancang dengan begitu teliti oleh golongan-golongan yang anti Islam semenjak diutus Muhammad s.a.w oleh Allah kebumi untuk memperbetulkan akhlak manusia?
Objektif dan misi serta matlamat utama golongan yang ingin menghapuskan Islam dimuka dunia akan menggunakan segala macam helah untuk menguasai minda dunia berpihak kepada mereka.
Mungkinkah ini yang berlaku kepada Islam dan masyarakat Melayu di Malaysia?

Bebalik kepada persoalan yang timbul dengan kes Kaliammal a/p Sinnasamy lwn Pengarah Jabatan Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan (JAWI) dan disingkatkan sebagai Kes Moorthu dan kes Lina Joy v Ketua Pengarah Pendaftaran ,
Kedua-dua kes tersebut pada asasnya merupakan dua kes yang berbeza dari segi bentuk dan penghujahan dan pemakaian kuasa undang-undang.
Didalam kes Moorthy ianya adalah isu pengislaman saudara baru yang terkandung di dalam Akta Pentadbiran Undang-Undang Islam(Wilayah Persekutuan)1993(Akta505).
Sek.85
memperuntukkan syarat-syarat sah Islamnya seorang yang ingin memelok agama islam.hanya dengan mengakui keesahan Allah dan menerima Muhammad s.a.w sebagai pesuroh Allah secara redha dand hakiki.Ini berlandaskan hukum syarak.
Sek.88
memperuntukkan perlunya seorang Muallaf tersebut mendaftar dengan Pendaftar,Majlis Agama Islam yang terdekat dan setelah disahkan oleh Pendaftar akan keislaman seseorang Muallaf tersebut maka dengan peruntukan Sek.90 Pendaftar akan mengeluarkan Sijil Kemasukan ke Agama Islam kepada Muallaf tersebut.
Harus diingat,ini adalah procedur yang wajib diikuti oleh seseorang yang ingin memelok agama Islam di Wilayah Persekutuan.Walau bagaimana pun APUI(WP)1993 mengariskan syarat kepada sesiapa yang ingin memelok agama Islam
Sek 95
Seseorang yang ingin memelok ugama Islam haruslah tidak gila dan mestilah mencapai umur 18 tahun dan sekiranya ia belum mencapai umur 18 tahun maka keizinan kedua ibu-bapanya sebelum memelok ugama Islam diperlukan.
Keizinan merupakan intipati utama bagi seseorang yang di bawah umor untuk memelok agama Islam.Disini perlu ditekankan Allah maha pengasih kepada setiap insan dan Allah jua mengkehendaki keadilan yang hakiki .Firman Allah disurah Maidah ayat 8:
Wahai orang-orang yang beriman, hendaklah kamu semua sentiasa menjadi orang-orang yang menegakkan keadilan kerana Allah, lagi menerangkan kebenaran dan jangan sekali-kali kebencian kamu terhadap sesuatu kaum itu mendorong kamu kepada tidak melakukan keadilan. Hendaklah kamu berlaku adil (kepada sesiapa jua) kerana sikap adil itu lebih hampir kepada takwa dan bertakwalah kepada Allah, sesungguhnya Allah Maha Mengetahui dengan mendalam akan apa yang kamu lakukan.(22)

Pengertian keadilan yang hakiki dapat di lihat melalui keputusan yang dibuat di dalam kes Sussie Teo (23),dimana Mahkamah Persekutuan ,melalui penhujahaan YAA Abd.Hamid berpendapat adalah tidak adil kepada kedua ibupbapa yang bukan berugama Islam sekiranya anak-anak mereka yang dibawah umur tidak meminta keizinan mereka untuk memelok dan berkahwin dengan pemuda yang beragama Islam.Maka perkahwinan tersebut terbatal di sisi undang-undang.
Disini kita dapati mahkamah mengambil langkah ‘soft approach’ dalam mentafsir keadilan bagi pihak kedua ibu-bapa walaupun dari sudut hukum syarak perkahwinan itu sah kerana perlu ditekankan bahawa Islam itu halus dalam pengertian dan tafsirannya didalam menterjemah apa itu Islam kepada masyarakat majmuk.
Jika dibezakan dengan kes Ng Siew Pian v Abd.Wahid bin Abu Hassan(24),Mahkamah berdepan dengan pertikaian pembubaran perkahwinan civil melalui procedur Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce)1976 (25) oleh seorang Muallaf yang telah memelok ugama Islam.
Sek.3(3) Akta tersebut mengariskan bahawa Akta tersebut tidak terpakai kepada mereka yang berugama Islam,tetapi dibawah
Sek.51 Akta tersebut memberi kelonggaran kepada pasangan yang memelok ugama Islam untuk pasangannya yang ‘Bukan Islam’ boleh mendaftar petisyen perceraian di Mahkamah civil di atas alasan yang pasangannya telah memelok ugama Islam.
Tetapi Akta tersebut tidak menberi garis panduan atau ketetapan tentang status pasangan yang telah memelok agama Islam untuk mengfailkan petisyen perceraian atas alasan “Telah Memelok Ugama Islam”.
Peruntukan yang digariskan dibawah bidang kuasa Shariah dalam hal in tertera dibawah Sek.46 Akta Undang-Undang Keluarga Islam(Wilayah Persekutuan 1984(Akta 303)
46(1) Jika salah satu pihak kepada sesuatu perkahwinan itu murtad atau memelok sesuatu kepercayaan lain daripada Islam,maka perbuatan yang demikian tidak boleh dengan sendirinya berkuatkuasa membubarkan perkahwinan itu melainkan dan sehingga disahkan oleh mahkamah.
46(2) Jika salah satu pihak kepada sesuatu perkahwinan bukan Islam memelok agama Islam,maka perbuatan yang demikian tidak boleh dengan sendirinya berkuatkuasa membubarkan perkahwinan itu melainkan dan sehingga disahkan sedemikian oleh Mahkamah.(26)

Walau bagaimanpun Sek.52 AUKI(WP)1984 (Akta 303) di bawah tajuk Perintah Untuk Membubarkan Perkahwinan atau untuk Faskh akta memberi garis panduan akan syarat-syarat untuk membolehkan mahkamah mengeluarkan suatu notis perceraian fasakh atau perceraian melalui perintah makamah walaupun dari segi hukum syarak ianya tidak digalakkan tetapi demi untuk menjaga keselamatan serta jaminan kesejeteraan pasangan yang mengalami polelik rumah tangga itu supaya berpisah.Tidak terdapat apa-apa peruntukan fasakh bagi suami untuk memohon kepada mahkamah untuk menceraikan isterinya.Ini mungkin disebabkan hukum syarak meletakkan kuasa untuk menceraikan isteri terletak pada suami.
Jumhur berpendapat antara sebab di bolehkan cerai faaskh ialah kerana murtad (27)
Di dalam menentukan bilakah seseorang Islam yang murtad terbubar perkahwinannya,terdapat perbezaan antara syarak dengan Enakmen Perkahwinan Islam.Dimana syarak menetapkan pembubaran perkahwinan berlaku serta-merta apabila seseorang itu murtad.Tetapi telah di gariskan di Sek.46(1) dan Sek.46(2) bahawa pembubaran tidak boleh berkuatkuasa dengan sendirinya tanpa disahkan oleh mahkamah..
Hukum syarak juga menetapkan bahawa perkawinan orang-orang islam juga sah sekiranya ianya menikahi Ahli Kitabbiyah.Ini di gariskan dibawah peruntukan Sek.10(1)dimana tiada seorang lelaki boleh berkahwin dengan seseorang bukan Islam kecuali seorang Kitabiyah.Jumhur ulama mengariskan ‘Ahli Kitabiyah’diertikan sebagai

a) seorang prempuan dari keturunan Bani Ya’qub atau
b) seorang prempuan Nasrani dari keturunan orang-orang Nasrani sebelum Nabi Muhammad s.a.w menjadi Rasul atau
c) seorang prempuan Yahudi dari keturunan orang-orang Yahudi sebelum Nabi Isa menjadi Rasul.

Persoalan yang timbul didalam kes Moorthy ialah ,diandaikan segala process pengislaman beliau itu betul mengikut procedur ketetapan yang di garis kan di bawah Sek.85 dan 89 Akta Pentadbiran Undang-Undang Islam (Wilayah Persekutuan 1993)(Akta 303) secara otomatis mendiang Moorthy tergolong dibawah bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah,saperti termaktub di dalam Per.121(1A) Pelembagaan Persekutuan.Ini berasaskan keputusan-keputusan yang telah dibuat didalam kes-kes

Pihak perayu mohon kepada Mahkamah sama ada Mahkamah Sivil mempunyai bidang kuasa untuk menkaji semula atau kesalahan perintah oleh mahkamah sivil yang sedia ada.Ianya adalah bertujuan untuk menegepikan perintah yang di keluarkan oleh Mahkamah Tinggi Shariah Wilayah Persekutuan pada 22hb.Disember 2005 melalui Kes No.141000990090 (28 )bahawa simati telah pun:
a) memelok agama Islam
b) simati hendaklah dikebumikan mengikut Agama Islam saperti kehendak Hukum Syarak
c) bahawa pihak Jabatan Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan mengesahkan bahawa sepanjang hayat simati selepas memelok agama Islam tidak pernah memohon kepada Mahkamah Shariah Wilayah Persekutuan untuk keluar daripada agama Islam mengikut hukum syarak dan tiada sebarang perintah Mahkamah Shariah yang mengistiharkan dianya telah terkeluar daripada Islam.
YA Rauf Sharif,memutuskan bahawa berdasarkan kepada fakta procedure yang dikemukakan oleh Mahkamah Tinggi Shariah Wilayah Persekutuan pada 22hb.Disember 2005 adalah sah di sisi undang-undang saperti termaktub didalam Sek.85,86,87,88,89,90,91 dan Sek95 Akta Pentadbiran Undang-undang Islam(Wilayah-Wilayah Persekutuan) 1993(Akta 505),maka dengan sendirinya bererti perintah Mahkamah Shariah tersebut sah dan terpakai.
Jesteru itu berlandaskan kes-kes yang mengikat iaitu Habibullah v Faridah Dato Talib,Soon Singh v (Perkim) Kedah,Dalip Singh v Ketua Polis Bukit Mertajam,Mohd Hakim Lee v Jabatan Agama Islam Wilayah Persekutuan,NurAysiah Hun Abdullah v Majlis Agama Islam Negeri Sembilan maka Mahkamah Sivil berketetapan bahawa ianya tidak mempunyai bidang kuasa untuk mendengar tuntutan pihak perayu dan tuntutan perayu ditolak.
Ini adalah berlandaskan kepada peruntukan Per.121(1A) Perlembagaan Persekutuan yang telah pun memisahkan bidang kuasa kedua-dua mahkamah Sivil dan Shariah dan itulah fakor utama dan pendorong yang menyebabkan perpisahan kedua-dua Mahkamah.Mahkamah Sivil untuk orang-orang ‘Bukan Islam’ dan Mahkamah Shariah mempunyai bidang kuasa mutlak untuk mengadili hukum-hakam bagi orang-orang yang berugama Islam.

Kisah dan tauladan daripada kes Moorthy,dapatkah kita rumuskan ianya bukanlah suatu kes yang boleh menyalahkan pihak pentadbiran dan peruntukan perundangan yang sedia ada.Tidak dapat di nafikan isu agama adalah suatu isu yang amat sensitive sehinggakan ianya boleh membawa ke medan pertempuran baik diantara para dai’,para interlectual,masyarakat awam mahupun yng berada di ambang kekuasaan Negara.
Isu agama boleh memporak-perandakan sesebuah Negara,keharmonian dan kestabilan ekonomi masyarak majmok akan terjejas.Ianya sering disensasikan oleh golongan yang terlalu fanatic terhadap bangsa,agama dan negaranya.

Firman Allah s.w.t didalam surah
Al Hujuraat ayat 14;

Orang-orang "A'raab" berkata: Kami telah beriman. Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad): Kamu belum beriman, (janganlah berkata demikian), tetapi sementara iman belum lagi meresap masuk ke dalam hati kamu berkatalah sahaja: Kami telah Islam dan (ingatlah), jika kamu taat kepada Allah RasulNya (zahir dan batin), Allah tidak akan mengurangkan sedikitpun dari pahala amal-amal kamu, kerana sesungguhnya Allah Maha Pengampun, lagi Maha Mengasihani.(29)

Seterusnya Allah berfirman di dalam Surah

Ali Imran ayat 85;

Dan sesiapa yang mencari agama selain agama Islam, maka tidak akan diterima daripadanya dan dia pada hari akhirat kelak dari orang-orang yang rugi(30)

Antara statement yang berbau perkauman dan statement yang memperlekehkan Mahkamah Shariah yang tertera di majallah Aliran(31).
Dengan izin
‘….Article 121(1A) has since created grave injustice in a string of cases.In Moorthy case,Kalimmal found herself with no legal remedy.The wife took her case to civil court,where the judge ruled that the court did not have jurisdiction.The wife’s position was simply untenable.She had no court she could turn to for justice or a remedy,mush less to present her evidence’

Statement yang mengelirukan ini menudoh seolah-olah sistem kehakiman Malaysia amnya dan sistem Kehakiman Shariah khasnya itu zalim dan menudoh seolah-olah ‘Justice Can Be Heard But Not Done’ oleh Mahkamah.Malah kesahan process pemindaan Per.121(1A) dipersoalkan diatas kesahan procedur penggubalan rang undang-undang tersebut.

‘….at the time the Bill was passed,seven DAP MP’s including some of the most vocal parliamentary such as Lim Kit Siang,Kapal Singh dan Lim Guan Eng as well as the late P.Patto and V.David were under ISA detention following Operation Lalang in October 1987’.(32)

Statement tersebut mengandaikan seolah-olah penggubalan rang undang-undang tersebut tidak mempunyai corum yang mencukupi di Dewan Parlimen dan pindaan tersebut seolah-olah tidak diperdebatkan supaya keterperincian rang undang-undang tersebut menepati intipati dan kehendak rakyat.

Isu berkenaan pihak perayu tidak mendapat keadilan di mahkamah Shariah kerana perayu bukan beragama islam amat tidak munasabah.Hukum Islam berpandukan Sharak dan sharak menepati apa-apa perintah Allah s.w.t supaya melakukan keadilan.Saperti terkandung di surah
An Nisa ayat 135

‘Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Hendaklah kamu menjadi orang-orang yang sentiasa menegakkan keadilan, lagi menjadi saksi (yang menerangkan kebenaran) kerana Allah, sekalipun terhadap diri kamu sendiri atau ibu bapa dan kaum kerabat kamu. Kalaulah orang (yang didakwa) itu kaya atau miskin (maka janganlah kamu terhalang daripada menjadi saksi yang memperkatakan kebenaran disebabkan kamu bertimbang rasa), kerana Allah lebih bertimbang rasa kepada keduanya. Oleh itu, janganlah kamu turutkan hawa nafsu supaya kamu tidak menyeleweng dari keadilan. Dan jika kamu memutar-balikkan keterangan ataupun enggan (daripada menjadi saksi), maka sesungguhnya Allah sentiasa Mengetahui dengan mendalam akan apa yang kamu lakukan.(33)

Malah dibawah peruntukan Sek.244 Akta Tatacara Mal Mahkamah Shariah(Wilayah Persekutuan)1998 (34) memperuntukan orang-orang yang bukan berugama islam boleh menuntut keadilan supaya keadilan dapat ditegakkan.Sekysen ini memperluaskan lagi bidang kuasa Hakim Mahkamah Shariah untuk menentukan keadilan diselenggarakan dengen penoh hemah dan memberikan hak yang saksama berlandaskan hukum
sharak.

Persoalan akidah dan kesalahan yang berbentuk akidah merupakan isu yang paling genting yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat Islam kini bukan sahaja di Malaysia tetapi juga terhadap masyarakat Islam di merata dunia..Perundangan Islam dan Muhammad s.a.w diutus kebumi ini ialah untuk memperbetulkan akidah umat manusia.

Surah Saba’ ayat 28

Dan tiadalah Kami mengutusmu (wahai Muhammad) melainkan untuk umat manusia seluruhnya, sebagai Rasul pembawa berita gembira (kepada orang-orang yang beriman) dan pemberi amaran (kepada orang-orang yang ingkar); akan tetapi kebanyakan manusia tidak mengetahui (hakikat itu).

Surah Al-Maaidah ayat 48

Dan Kami turunkan kepadamu (wahai Muhammad) Kitab (Al-Quran) dengan membawa kebenaran, untuk mengesahkan benarnya Kitab-kitab Suci yang telah diturunkan sebelumnya dan untuk memelihara serta mengawasinya. Maka jalankanlah hukum di antara mereka (Ahli Kitab) itu dengan apa yang telah diturunkan oleh Allah (kepadamu) dan janganlah engkau mengikut kehendak hawa nafsu mereka (dengan menyeleweng) dari apa yang telah datang kepadamu dari kebenaran. Bagi tiap-tiap umat yang ada di antara kamu, Kami jadikan (tetapkan) suatu Syariat dan jalan agama (yang wajib diikuti oleh masing-masing) dan kalau Allah menghendaki nescaya Dia menjadikan kamu satu umat (yang bersatu dalam agama yang satu), tetapi Dia hendak menguji kamu (dalam menjalankan) apa yang telah disampaikan kepada kamu. Oleh itu berlumba-lumbalah kamu membuat kebaikan (beriman dan beramal soleh). Kepada Allah jualah tempat kembali kamu semuanya, maka Dia akan memberitahu kamu apa yang kamu berselisihan padanya.

Kesalahan berbentuk akidah di perjelaskan diBahagian 11 dan Bahagian 111 Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Syariah (Wilayah Persekutuan)1997 (Akta 559).
Tetapi yang menjadi tanda tanya hingga ke hari ini mengapakah kesalahan murtad atau riddah tidak disenaraikan sebagai kesalahan jenayah shariah di dalam AKJS(WP)1997 secara terperinci.

Inilah persoalan yang menjadi tanda tanya di dalam kes Lina Joy(35)

Keputusan Mahkamah sebelumnya agak memihak kepada peruntukkan Per.121(1A).Ini dapat diperhatikan memlalui keputusan Mahkamah Persekutuan di dalam pengulonggan kes Kamariah Ali

Perayu-perayu telah membuat akuan berkanun mengisytiharkan mereka keluar daripada agama Islam pada bulan Ogos 1998. Mereka dijatuhkan hukuman penjara pada 5 Oktober 2000 atas kegagalan mematuhi perintah Mahkamah Rayuan Syariah untuk bertaubat berkaitan dengan kesalahan di bawah Undang-undang Majlis Agama Islam dan Adat Istiadat Melayu Kelantan yang dilakukan oleh perayu-perayu sebelum Ogos 1998. Maka, persoalan yang timbul ialah sama ada perayu-perayu mestilah menganut agama Islam ketika hukuman-hukuman dijatuhkan ke atas mereka dalam bulan Oktober 2000.
Diputuskan, menolak rayuan perayu-perayu:

(1) Membuat akuan berkanun dan mengisytiharkan mereka bukan lagi menganut agama Islam tidak dengan sendirinya melepaskan perayu-perayu daripada pertuduhan yang ada di Mahkamah Syariah .

(2) Mengambil pendekatan maksud, didapati bahawa masa yang material untuk menentukan sama ada perayu-perayu adalah orang yang menganut agama Islam ialah masa ketika mana perayu-perayu melakukan kesalahan di bawah Undang-Undang Majlis Agama Islam dan Adat Istiadat Melayu Kelantan. Oleh itu walau pun perayu-perayu telah mengisytiharkan mereka murtad pada tahun 1998, mereka selayaknya dibawa ke hadapan Mahkamah Syariah pada tahun 2000 kerana ia berkaitan suatu kesalahan yang telah dilakukan ketika perayu-perayu masih beragama Islam. (36)

Cuma perbezaan yang terdapat di dalam kes Lina Joy ialah pada asalnya ianya merupakan persoalan Undang-Undang Pentadbiran yang tiada hubung kait dengan kebebasan beragama.Kalau dilihat dari prespektif pentadbiran,persoalannya ialah
boleh kah pihak Executive dengan mengunakan kuasa budi bicaranya untuk tidak memberi keizinan kepada seseorang rakyat membubarkan perkataan Islam di dalam Identiti Pengenalanya.Apakah significant Islam itu di dalam identiti Pengenalan seseorang?Secara dasarnya tidak terdapat apa-apa peruntukan mengenai kuasa budi bicara secara mutlak diberi kepada pihak Executive untuk menjalankan tugas harian mereka.Ini bersebabkan terdapat percanggahan prinsip yang digariskan oleh Per.8** Perlembagaan Persekutuan.(37)

Berpandukan per dicta keputusan kes tersebut :

Perayu dilahirkan sebagai seorang beragama Islam dan nama asalnya adalah Azlina bte Jailani. Pada 1990 beliau mendakwa telah mempercayai sepenuhnya agama Kristian dan telah kemudiannya dibaptiskan. Beliau memohon kepada Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara ('JPN') untuk menukar namanya pertama kali kepada Lina Lelani dan kemudiannya kepada Lina Joy atas dasar pertukaran agama. Pertukaran namanya kemudiannya telah dibenarkan, tetapi perkataan 'Islam' tertera pada Kad Pengenalan ('KP') beliau. Beliau telah mengemukakan bukti berkenaan pertukaran agamanya dan memohon kepada JPN untuk memadamkan perkataan 'Islam' daripada KP beliau. Walau bagaimanapun, JPN telah meminta perayu untuk mengemukakan sijil dan/atau perintah daripada Mahkamah Syariah.
Isunya adalah sama ada JPN betul dalam menolak permohonan perayu di bawah per 14 Peraturan Pendaftaran Kebangsaan 1990 ('Peraturan 1990') untuk kenyataan agamanya sebagai 'Islam' dipadamkan daripada KP beliau dan dalam meminta sijil dan/atau perintah daripada Mahkamah Syariah.
Pihak responden bergantung kepada perenggan (cc)(xiii) per 4 yang menyatakan Ketua Pengarah adalah berhak untuk meminta maklumat tambahan daripada seseorang yang memohon untuk pertukaran nama di bawah per 14. Oleh itu, tiada apa-apa yang menyalahi undang-undang bagi Ketua Pengarah untuk meminta perayu mengemukakan sijil dan/atau perintah daripada Mahkamah Syariah.
Walau bagaimanapun, peguamcara bagi perayu menghujahkan bahawa per 4(cc)(xiii) hanya membenarkan Ketua Pengarah untuk meminta maklumat berkenaan dengan butir-butir yang telah dikemukakan oleh perayu. Oleh itu, dalam kes sekarang ini, Ketua Pengarah berhak meminta perayu untuk mengemukakan sijil pembaptisan beliau untuk menunjukkan bahawa beliau dengan sebenarnya adalah seorang beragama Kristian seperti yang dinyatakan dalam borang permohonannya. Berikutan dengan itu, permintaan bagi perintah daripada Mahkamah Syariah bukanlah merupakan permintaan yang sah di bawah per 4(cc)(xiii).
Diputuskan, dengan majoriti menolak rayuan itu:

(1) Abdul Aziz Mohamad HMR, Arifin Zakaria HMR bersetuju.
Dalam permohonan perayu kepada JPN, beliau telah menyatakan bahawa kesilapan pada kad pengenalannya adalah berkenaan dengan kenyataan agamanya sebagai 'Islam', yang mana beliau mahu dipadamkan. Ini adalah sama seperti beliau menyatakan bahawa beliau telah keluar daripada Islam. JPN oleh itu boleh meminta beliau untuk mengemukakan keterangan dokumentari untuk menyokong ketepatan kenyataan beliau bahawa beliau bukan lagi beragama Islam (lihat perenggan 31).

(2) Abdul Aziz Mohamad HMR, Arifin Zakaria HMR bersetuju.
Fakta sama ada seseorang itu telah keluar daripada Islam adalah merupakan persoalan undang-undang Islam yang bukan di bawah bidangkuasa JPN dan JPN adalah tidak berkebolehan atau layak untuk memberi keputusan. Ini adalah kerana keluar Islam adalah merupakan hal ehwal undang-undang Islam yang mana JPN bukanlah pihak yang berkuasa yang membuatkannya mengamalkan polisi untuk meminta penetapan daripada pihak berkuasa agama Islam sebelum ia boleh bertindak untuk memadamkan perkataan 'Islam' daripada kad pengenalan seseorang yang beragama Islam. Polisi tersebut adalah sememangnya berpatutan

(3) Gopal Sri Ram HMR menentang.
Perintah daripada Mahkamah Syariah tidak akan memberi apa-apa kesan untuk menyokong ketepatan berkenaan butir-butir bahawa perayu adalah seorang yang beragama Kristian. Walau bagaimanapun, sijil pembaptisan bertarikh 11 Mei 1998 yang dikemukakan oleh perayu dengan secukupnya telah menyokong ketepatan butir-butir bahawa perayu beragama Kristian. Peraturan 14(2) mengehendaki seseorang pemohon untuk menyatakan dalam akuan berkanunnya sebab bagi pertukaran nama tersebut. Dalam kes perayu, beliau telah menyatakan bahawa sebab pertukaran nama adalah kerana beliau sekarang adalah seorang Kristian. Berikutan dengan itu, tiada apa-apa dalam per 4(cc)(xiii) yang menyokong tindakan Ketua Pengarah dalam kes ini.

Oleh itu arahan atau sijil daripada Mahkamah Syariah bukan merupakan dokumen yang relevan untuk memproses permohonan perayu. Ia bukanlah dokumen yang ditetapkan dalam Peraturan 1990. Ia juga bukan merupakan butir-butir yang boleh diminta oleh pegawai pendaftar sebagai butir-butir di bawah per 4(cc)(xiii) (lihat perenggan 59). Dengan meminta perintah/sijil tersebut dikemukakan, Ketua Pengarah telah mengambil kira satu pertimbangan yang tidak relevan semasa membuat keputusan untuk tidak membuat pertukaran kepada KP perayu. Ini tentunya membuatkan keputusan untuk tidak memadamkan perkataan 'Islam' daripada KP perayu tidak sah dan terbatal dan tidak mempunyai kesan.

Adalah diakui bagi pihak Ketua Pengarah bahawa sebelum 1 Oktober 1999 tiada peruntukan dalam Peraturan 1990 yang memandatkan pernyataan agama seseorang di dalam kad pengenalannya. Jadi, sekiranya Ketua Pengarah telah meluluskan permohonan perayu sepertimana yang diwajibkan oleh undang-undang ke atas beliau semasa permohonan perayu kepada JPN dibuat, masalah sekarang ini tidak akan timbul.(38)
Kes tersebut masih tertanggoh, di peringakat rayuan terakhir iaitu Mahkamah Persekutuan..Diandaikan sekiranya Mahkamah Persekutuan mendapati bahawa pihak Executive telah terkilaf dan telah melebihi kuasa yang di beri saperti yang di ajukan oleh YAA Gopal Sri Ram didalam pergulonggan hujahnya:

Adakah ianya bererti Lina Joy menpunyai hak untuk memohon supaya perkataan ‘Islam’ dipadamkan didalam Identiti Pengenalannya atau adakah dia berhak untuk hidup sebagai warganegara Malysia yang sah di sisi undang-undang dan menikmati takrifan Per.11 Perlembagaan Persekutuan?

Dimana bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah didalam polimik ini?

Pihak Peguam Negara dalam menentang permohonannya mengariskan bahawa memandangkan pada asalnya Lina Joy menganut ugama Islam maka dengan sendirinya Per.121(1A) terpakai dalam hal ini.Ini memandangkan sama saperti kes Moorty kuasa untuk memurtadkan seseorang haruslah mengunakan procedure Mahkamah Shariah saperti tertera di dalam Akta Pentadbiran Undang-Undang Islam (Wilayah Persekutuan)1993
Apakah itu definasi Muslim?
APUI(WP) 1993 mengariskan seorang muslim adalah

a) seseorang yang mengakui ugamanya Islam.

b) seseorang,salah seorang atau kedua-dua ibubapanya Muslim dan
dilahirkan Muslim

c) seseorang yang dibesarkan dan didik berasaskan Islam

d) seseorang yang memelok agama Islam selaras dengan syarat yang tertera di Sek.85

e)seseorang yang sering mengakui dirinya seorang Islam dan

f) seseorang yang ikrarnya di terima dan diakui betul oleh sharak

Percanggahan Per.11 dan procedur untuk memurtadkan diri seseorang itu wajiblah mengikuti procedure yang digariskan didalam APUI(WP)1993.Syarak menetapkan bahawa seseorang itu murtad secara automatis apabila tingkah laku perbuatan dan pengakuannya berulangan yang ianya bukan lagi seorang Islam.
Dari sudut syarak secara automatis ianya gugur sebagai seorang Muslim dan dari aspek perundangan Islam yang tulin maka secara automatis ianya tergulong didalam jenis Jenayah Hudud.
Dari aspek procedur Lina Joy masih lagi seorang Muslim dan masih tertakluk di dalam bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah.Tetapi dari aspeck akidah keislaman dan tingkah perbuatannya secara otomatis dia nya seorang KAFIRUN.
Tidak ada tolenransi dalam hal keimanan dan peribadatan

Allah berfirman didalam surah Kafirun ayat 1-6
• Katakanlah hai orang-orang kafir
• Aku tidak akan menyembah apa yang kamu sembah
• Dan kamu bukan penyembah Tuhan yang aku sembah
• Dan aku tidak pernah menjadi penyembah apa yang kamu sembah
• Dan kamu tidak pernah menjadi penyembah Tuhan yang aku sembah
• Untukmu agamamu dan untukku agamaku (39)

Apakah remedi yang diperlukan untuk menentukan survival Bangsa Melayu yang sudah amat sinonim dengan Islam sejak ratusan tahun?

Adakah perlu satu penggubalan semula Perlembagaandemi untuk mencapai,menjaga,menghormati,menentukan bumi yang di pijak ini adalah hak ALLAH s.w.t.Saperti firman Allah di dalam surah Al-An’aam ayat 38

Al-An’aam ayat 38

Dan tidak seekor pun binatang yang melata di bumi dan tidak seekor pun burung yang terbang dengan kedua sayapnya, melainkan mereka umat-umat seperti kamu. Tiada Kami tinggalkan sesuatu pun di dalam kitab Al-Quran ini; kemudian mereka semuanya akan dihimpunkan kepada Tuhan mereka (untuk dihisab dan menerima balasan.

Tidak ada jalan mudah untuk menentu keselamatan,ketamadunan Islam dan keharmonian masyarakat Islam di Malaysia terjamin dimasa hadapan.

Dari aspek perundang,bolehkah Perlembagaan itu dipinda?
Di dalam kes Pang Chin Hock v Govt of Malaysia (40),YAA Tun Sufian,dalam menggulung hujahnya ,berpendapat bahawa Palimen mempunyai kuasa untuk mengubal atau meminda Perlembagaan yang sedia ada,tetapi tertakluk kepada syarat yang wajib diteliti.Persoalanya apakah Struktur Perlembagaan itu digariskan di dalam kes Kesavananda Bharati v State of Kerala dan di adaptasikan di Mahkamah Malaysia.

Struktur asas Pelembagaan itu mesti tidak menggubah atau meminda mana-mana satu daripada lima prinsip tersebut.

(a) Perlembagaan itu merupakan Undang-Undang Tertinggi
ie.(Supremacy of the Constitution)

(b) Raja berperlembagaan @ Constitutional monarchy

(c) Islam ugama rasmi Persekutuan tetapi ugama –ugama lain boleh diamal di Malaysia

(d) Pengasingan Kuasa antara 3 component iaitu Legislatif,Executive dan badan Kehakiman; dan

(e) Ciri Federal Perlembagaan itu sendiri(42)

YAA Raja Azlan Shah (rtd.),di dalam kes Re:Dato MenteriOthman Baginda(43) berpendapat bahawa jika sebuah Pelembagaan itu adalah undang-undang mutlak negara maka ianya hendaklah di tafsirkan secara menyeluruh, tidak rigid dan lebih boleh diubah suai mengikut peredaran masa and memahami aspirasi masyarakat semasa.

Persoalan yang timbul apakah dia trend dimasa kini?

Ada kah murtad merupakan trend dimasa kini?

Percanggahan bidang kuasa Mahkamah Shariah dan Mahkamah Sivil masih jelas.Secara perbandingan kita bezakan bentuk kanun lama dalam khazanah kita iaitu Hukum Kanun Melaka dengan Akta Kesalahan Jenayah Shariah (Wilayah Persekutuan)1997 dan hukumannya.Dimana kesilapan kita dalam mentafsir apa itu Islam yang sebenarnya.
Islam itu adalah ’ Ilm’al haq kearah haq al’yakin demi haqqul minna nas’
Kerajaan Melayu Melaka sebelum ia ditakluki oleh Portugis telah pun melaksanakan undang-undang Islam dalam bentuk yang lebih luas daripada apa yang diperuntukkan dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan.Undang-undang yang dipraktikkan pada ketika itu adalah termaktub dalam Kanun Melaka. Undang-undang Melaka merangkumi aspek jenayah, muamalah ataupun sistem ekonomi, kekeluargaan, keterangan serta acara.(44)
Dalam aspek undang-undang jenayah misalnya, ketiga-tiga bahagian penting undang-undang Jenayah Islam telahpun diperuntukkan dalam undang-undang Melaka. Bahagian-bahagian itu ialah qisas(termasuk diat), hudud dan ta'zir.

Hukum qisas adalah dipakai terhadap pembunuhan yang dilakukan oleh orang Islam terhadap orang Islam yang lain dan juga oleh orang kafir terhadap orang Islam yang mana hukuman ialah bunuh balas. Ini disebut dalam fasal 5:1, 5:3, 8:2, 8:3, 18:4, dan 39.
Walau bagaimanapun dalam kes pembunuhan tidak sengaja dan kerosakan harta benda dan binatang hukuman yang dikenakan ialah diat.43 Mengenai kecederaan diperuntukkan bahawa seorang yang melakukan kesalahan menampar seorang yang lain akan dikenakan hukuman tampar balas. (45)
Hukuman hudud pula dipakai kepada kesalahan-kesalahan berikut:
a) Zina, hukumannya ialah sebat 100 kali atau rejam sampai mati (fasal 4:2).
b) Qadhaf(menuduh orang lain berzina), hukumannya ialah disebat 80 kali (fasal 12:3).
c) Mencuri yang cukup kadarnya, hukumannya ialah dipotong tangan (fasal 11:1).
d) Minum arak, hukumannya ialah sebat 40 kali (fasal 42).
e) Murtad, hukumannya ialah bunuh setelah disuruh bertaubat tetapi enggan melakukannya (fasal 36:1).
Selain dari perkara-perkara di atas hukuman hudud juga dipakai kepada kesalahan merompak(46), menderhakai pemerintah yang adil.(47), dan meninggalkan sembahyang.(48)
Hukuman ta'zir pula dipakai terhadap kesalahan mencuri yang gugur hukum hudud(49), bercumbuan (50), menuduh kafir zimmi dan hamba melakukan zina (51), fitnah(52), berjudi (53), dan penyaksian palsu (54)
Selain daripada undang-undang jenayah, undang perekonomian, undang-undang keluarga, undang-undang keterangan dan acara juga diperuntukkan dalam undang-undang Melaka.(55)
Mengenai undang-undang komersial kaedah-kaedah asas seperti persetujuan bersama membeli dan menjual, identiti barang-barang, kebankrapan dan hutang-hutang dinyatakan juga dalam kanun Melaka.(56)
Keistimewaan Kanun Melaka ini bukan sahaja cuba menyesuaikan elemen-elemen Islam dengan elemen-elemen tempatan malahan mukaddimahnya dimulai dengan memuji Tuhan Yang Maha Pemurah lagi Maha Penyayang. Mukaddimahnya berbunyi seperti berikut:

Dengan nama Allah Yang Maha Pemurah lagi Maha Penyayang. Segala puji-pujian bagi Allah Tuhan Seru Sekalian Alam dan kesejahteraan bagi mereka yang percaya kepada Allah, dan selamat serta salam bagi utusanNya Saiyidina Muhamad dan seluruh keluarganya dan sahabat-sahabatnya.(57)
Dari perbincangan di atas jelas kepada kita bahawa tidak banyak perubahan telah dibuat terhadap status dan kedudukan undang-undang Islam semenjak merdeka hingga sekarang. Bidangkuasa Mahkamah Syariah masih sama seperti mana sebelumnya. Pindaan Perlembagaan pada tahun 1988 tidak memperluaskan skop undang-undang Islam tetapi hanya memisahkan mahkamah sivil dan Mahkamah Syariah. Perluasan skop undang-undang Islam ini mungkin juga tidak begitu bermakna jika masih lagi tidak terdapat peruntukan undang-undang mengenai perkara-perkara yang mana Mahkamah Syariah mempunyai bidangkuasa. Contohnya, semua enakmen negeri-negeri tidak mempunyai peruntukan-peruntukan mengenai mualaf (58) Sekiranya dibandingkan dengan kedudukan undang-undang Islam di zaman Kerajaan Melayu Melaka, kita dapati undang-undang di dalam Kanun Melaka adalah lebih luas skopnya kerana undang-undangnya tidak terhad kepada undang-undang diri dan keluarga sahaja malahan meliputi undang-undang jenayah, ekonomi dan juga komersial.(59)
Bukan itu sahaja malahan hukuman-hukuman dalam undang-undang jenayahnya lebih menepati hukum syara' dimana hukuman-hukuman yang dikenakan berdasarkan qisas, hudud dan ta'zir.(60)
Kemasyhuran dan kegemilangan Melaka di zamannya adalah berkat dari perlaksanaan undang-undang Islam secara yang sepatutnya. Benarlah seperti kata Saiyidina Omar Al-Khattab Khalifah Islam:
Kita adalah satu umat yang mana akan ditimpa kehinaan kerana meninggalkan Islam dan akan mendapat kemuliaan kerana mengambil dan melaksanakan Islam(61)

Adakah perlunya suatu referendum?

Wallah Waq’lam.

Model Malaysia - Pre Malaya

2007-05-26T03:35:00.001+08:00

I enjoy biography,and most of my collection remain in dust are of autobiograpies.
The last auto bio I read was 'Bandit Queen'.The real life story of cult hillanders robbers cum if I may call Robin Hood of Rajastan finally turn a Member of Parliament.

Could it be such a situation happen in Malaysia?
After all it the peoples voice and majority wins or could it be a day day when 'Mak Nyah' of Bukit Bintang or a former GRO decides later in life decides to stand for election to be a member of Parliament.

I could imagine the headline reads out load......'No to Mak Nyah' we do have an integrity system in Parliament or the news would be written bold..........
'Jangan mencemarkan kehormatan Parliament kita dengan Kebebasan berparliament ala Barat'... or let say the Mak Nyah or the GRO insist and won the local election.We do have a remedy to it,its call 'Quo Warranto' an order by the court enforce that the person sitting in Public Office be it an MP,Local Councillor or any public servant unfit to hold the job,based on pettion.

Hang on,doesn't we are subject to rule of law and rule by law too?
If the Mak Nyah wins by majority doesn't he/she qualifies to be the MP?
After all he/she is capable as any other qualified MP's or assuming he/she is above average inteligent,witty and hard working and understood the problematic areas he/she has to assign to?

Or....... if I may think of an alernative answer.."IS A NO..NO...IN MALAYSIA'

Its mind boggeling to live in space of a first class infracture but a 3 class mentality society I suppose.

I posed a question to my 14 years old daughter, Nana, the other day,are we ready to have a women Prime Minister here?

.......the answer remains blank............

Lets hope that the RMC opens it door to girls for a start.
Even West Point Militery Acedemy has open it door to Womens Cadet,why don't we open RMC to girls or start a Royal Girls Militery College to compete with TKC?
They could turn to be a good Tun Ftimah I supposed or another Dang Annum cum militery strategies.

Or lets have the first Women Mayor For Wilayah Persekutuan for a start.

Thought provoking isn't it..............?

Good Man Rommel.

2007-05-09T01:47:00.002+08:00

Up-Dates

Rommel Sidek passed away due to liver complication after going through major liver transplant operation at Beijing Specialist Hospital in October 2008.

May Allah have mercy on his soul.

Al-Fatiha.

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

It was not long ago,I posted in this blog about a missing budding of mine,Rommel.As the name stand for Gen.Rommel,the German General known to historian as the charismatic General of the Northen Africa Nazi campaign.Rommel whom I know has that basic charismatic charm in him.

Rommel like me,enjoys a good laugh and life.
We both were part-time buskers at the Marble Arch Tube station.Yes,we were student but during summer hols instead of being ideal ,we rather polished our not so talented skill for the happy summer Londaners faces apart being able to purse a few quid for a 'Black Velvet' later in the day.A good guitarist Rommel is.We both enjoy occassionally jam session either at my flat at Dawson Place,Bayswater or in the Hyde Park particulary in summer.

He left for the State in 83' and has lost contact since,not until last Sunday.
I recieved a surprising SMS from Boe 'Rommel in ICU Ampang Putri'.
The whole Sunday morning I was bluesing with Bob Dylan and Neil Young tune.
Me and Boe rush to Ampang Putri ICU in the evening visiting hour.
I met a my buddy,basically grew up in London together,enjoys what London could offers us within reasons, laying in ICU fighting to live.
However,he is in a much better health now compare a few weeks ago.

Yes,Rommel was in the States all this while and doing well there and has been back since the past 6 months,after being spear-head to lead a leading techno corp.in town.

Well,all I can say,welcome home mate!
Cheers.....
Take care of your health.Go eazy man....
Keep in low and looking forward for a pool-side B-B-Q Jam session one on these fine day.
How lucky some guys are!!

Hanya,ayahanda ingin berpesan saperti Lokhman a.s berpesan kepada anaknya.Andaikata anakanda kelak akan mengecapi kemewahan dan punyai ramai kenalan,ayahanda hanya ingin berpesan laluil lah jalan itu dengan tenang dan melangkah dengan gagah berani,dan anakanda harus peka akan keadaan disekeliling anakanda dan berjalanlah dibumi Allah ini dengan tabah dan pasrah dengan bebola mata tajam merenung bumi yang bergelora ini.

Wassalam.
