Homicide, like road accidents, is coming to be an almost daily occurrence in this country if one were to follow the news aired on local TV stations. Many a time, dead bodies have been stumbled upon in some isolated places such as plantations, rivers, dumpsites, drains etc . Gang styled assassinations are also becoming increasingly common. There are even a few cases where murders were executed with explosives sent in parcels. And now we are seeing a murder case in which military weapons in the form of hand grenades were used. Instead of putting more attention into this deteriorating security… Read more »

PDRM has already engaged NYPD to learn public image branding and cut corruption. Next they will engage NCIS, CSI, or even Hawaii 5-O. They should fancy lawatan sambil belanja at New York’s Fifth Avenue and hang loose at Maui island!

But we actually need Serpico in police force. Remember Infernal Affairs?

If I were a Malaysian Muslim parent, I would keep an eye on my children to make sure that they
do not change into intolerant and utopian radicals, or even end up fighting in the civil wars of
others in the Middle East !

Malaysian Muslim parents should enrol their kids to study in Chinese vernacular schools.
Good moral upbringing, better quality teaching, opportunity to learn 3 languages at young age will be advantages.

Talking about that BB area, it was previously one of the most seediest red light area in KL but it has since been cleansed if not all. What about other places like Pudu with the majestic and grand Richmoore Hotel (Ace) still standing tall and infested with prostitutes? A police station is only merely less than 100 meters away. Raids are frequent but … What is the government doing about this? The place is an open secret.

Hi Mr Anil, below comments not relevant to topic but you may want to post it elsewhere : Gerakan Penang wants the State Gomen to preserve Siamese village at Pulau Tikus as a heritage ground. The public wants to know if Gerakan Penang can contribute some fund (via Federal Gomen) to compensate the owner(s) who want to develop new buildings over the land. If so, it can be called Little Phuket now that Penang & Phuket cities are “married” as friendship cities on Sep 18 this year ? Sawanikap Aroi Pinang !!! TMP (Transport Master Plan) to be the new… Read more »

What and who are you trying to blame or distract from the current trend of development in Penang?
The real issues of unsustainable development are what Penangites are concerned.
People have the right to kau peh kau boh when the gomen of the day did the opposite of what it promised.
You think we cheap ah?

Good points by Henson. We need more readers like him and Don who can bring out relevant points, unlike those cat bashers.

Like reading Benson’s input ~ do much refreshing from those many which use your blog as punching bag for their frustrations ~ need to depend won perseverance to survive and not be too dependent. Today these folks punched LGE, tomorrow they punch Teng or MAh just like what they have done to poor Kph.

TV2 noon news reported it as the work of Secret Society Gangs. Secret Society infiltrated by IS extremists to leverage & create more chaos after the local conservatives who created the hoo-haa first ?

There is a report on Free Malaysia Today which mentions that it was likely to be a gangwar issue.

Too fast to link it to gangsters. What about those religious militants?

When the citizens of Penang took the initiative to help the police ease their burden of duty
by forming the PPS to look after the security of their own neighbourhood they were
arrested and to be charged. Now what happen? We don’t feel safe anywhere anymore. We
hope the police would do their utmost to investigate and apprehend the perpetrators. Our
condolence to the victims.

The PPS is helping the DAP to ease their burden during ceramah not crime fighting. In fact they are helping in scare and violent tactic as in the case of OES

This is just the beginning … the shiite muslims in Malaysia have been … persecuted for long enough. One cannot try to cover up or fight fire with paper and that is what the … tenants in Putrajaya are trying to do. Especially when now that they are getting support from the west and bombing the IS … from becoming a threat to the world, out of existence. Please reassured that when all that is done, they (may) extend their ‘influences’ to this country and also to stop (some people) from becoming or joining the terrorists in the middle east.… Read more »

This is a problem when those who have threatened to burn down buildings are never arrested.

I think the government should (avoid sending) malay students on scholarship to Western universities (USA, UK, Germany, Denmark, Australia, New Zealand etc) as there is a beer culture in those countries that could influence them into drinking liquor. Also malays should be (discouraged) from visiting Munich in October for the same reason.
