Ismail Sabri Wake Up : RM1.0M A Day Lost In Diesel Smuggling

Posted: 28 Oct 2012 11:55 PM PDT


The newspapers have been reporting about some serious diesel smuggling that has been going on in Johor. Here are some news clips. All the four news clips below are datelined Johor Bharu.   







Here is the gist of the operation. Diesel is being smuggled out of Johor. Because the volumes are huge (up to 1.0 million litres per day) there are major players involved. 

But their logistics are simple.  From these news reports and the news pictures above, the clever smuggling operators do not need many lorries, runners or staff. They just pass the word around. For every liter of diesel "anyone" can deliver to their designated collection points, the smugglers will pay you say 20 sen per litre above the fuel pump price. So if you deliver 10 litres (one plastic container) you can make RM2.00 clean profit. 

That is why the Police have caught so many of these 'diesel entrepreneurs' in the news reports above. Folks say that even Johor housewives with motorbikes are getting into the act. 

I received the following e mail from a reader about this diesel smuggling in Johor :

Assalamualaikum Syed,
  • Essentially this is the gist of the diesel smuggling that is going on in Johor :
  • Estimated 500k -1 million litres of subsidised Diesel is being illegally lifted DAILY in Johor.  
  • Subsidy cost to Government between 60 sen to RM1 per liter of Diesel 
  • Government losing up to RM 1 Million DAILY from this activity.
  • Johor has now replaced the northern states as the state with the worst 'ketirisan' (loss of subsidies).
  • Diesel lifted illegally in Johor as well as some neighbouring states (Melaka and Negeri Sembilan) 
  • Primarily going into the bunker market in the channel.  
  • It is unconfirmed whether this is going into the Singaporean bunker market,  but VERY LIKELY. 
  • Quite a lot of it is used as "cutter stock" for global 'Marine Fuel Oil' clearing house ie Singapore market.  
  • Note: for such an operation, not only lorries are needed, but ad-hoc DEPOTS and JETTIES 
  • As well as BARGES / SHIPS.  
  • NONE OF THESE HAVE BEEN CAUGHT! WHY? 
  • Enforcement in Johor is a real issue - State KPDNKK Director is new (appointed earlier this year) 
  • He is not able to translate awareness with real action  
  • Police have expressed disappointment over lack of KPDNKK support.  
  • Note that newspapers above report activities of MARINE Police. 
  • Regular Police seems to be reticent in providing support 
  • Due to lack of KPDNKK support + naughtiness of some.  
  • This is now a public safety issue, with station dealers appealing directly to Minister for assistance. 
  • It is also INDUSTRY WIDE - at least 3 major players are heavily affected by this and assisting authorities. Suspect all affected but some keeping mum.
I thought the following points stick out like a sore thumb :

500k -1 million litres of subsidised Diesel is being illegally lifted DAILY in Johor.
Government losing up to RM 1 Million DAILY
Primarily going into the bunker market in the channel. 
DEPOTS and JETTIES, BARGES / SHIPS.  
NONE OF THESE HAVE BEEN CAUGHT! WHY?
Police have expressed disappointment over lack of KPDNKK support.
Regular Police seems to be reticent in providing support 

Smuggling on this scale will need major money and major muscle. And major protection. 

Who is providing the protection?  Someone has to ride shotgun to cover up the huge storage depots, barges, ships and jetties that are needed to move so much diesel.  

Why havent any of these barges and depots been caught or raided? Ismail Sabri - hang pun pi memancing atas tongkang kut? Where are you Dato Menteri?

There is a little more to this story. There is some intimidation going on as well. At over RM2.0 million worth of diesel being smuggled out per day in Johor, this is a huge business with serious players involved. 

The Marine Police seem to be doing their job. There are questions about the regular Police as well as the KPDNKK (that is the Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri lah - Ismail Sabri's outfit). They are not doing their job as well.

Industry players say that there are easy ways to curb diesel smuggling. One simple method is using 'nano markers' -  additive like substances that are added to the diesel which enable tracking by the authorities. Nanomarkers were used to keep track of subsidised petrols and diesels but only until late last year. The 'nanomarkers' were removed (over some dispute or disagreement) late last year. After that the diesel smuggling in Johor has taken off.

Maybe some clever people know exactly what is a nanomarker. 

"They Studied In Pakistan"

Posted: 28 Oct 2012 09:17 PM PDT

This morning while we were discussing the news at breakfast and talking about the Malaysian suicide bombers, my super witty son said quietly 'You cant make a career out of suicide bombing'.  Ha ha. Indeed you cannot. Here is more sad news :
  • Mohammed Razin Shaaban 28, recruited Rafik Mohammed Aaref 21, for  jihad.
  • detained by Lebanese army on charges of being al-Qaeda.
  • Malaysian police tracking movements since this year.
  • Razin contact with terrorists networks while studying in Pakistan in 2007.
  • arrested in Yemen in 2010.
  • Syria as the target but unable to gain entry into the country.
  • they went to Lebanon instead
  • Malaysian authorities tipped off Lebanese 
  • Police to determine if any terrorist cell in Malaysia.
  • Malaysian Mustapha Mansour recruited one of them in Malaysia in 2007.
  • Both then went to Yemen.
  • tried to enter Syria through Turkey to carry out suicide attacks.
  • coordinated with "Abou Hassan"
Can we just shut down all these brain dead madrassahs that manufacture such dunggus in the country? It is not just for our own national security but the security of the entire world. 

And can the Gomen please stop sending our students to study in all these Allah forsaken countries like Pakistan, Yemen, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Sudan and other such places? Their cultures and their false religions do not have anything useful to offer the human race. And if a student goes to a suicide bomber school in Pakistan or Yemen, it becomes a double whammy. Kaboom.

I have said this many times before - the religious freaks can turn the clock back to the stone age, at any time in history. We can see this in the 21st century. Muslims are becoming increasingly backward. You will be able to recognise them from some of their comments here in this Blog - possibly defending these terrorists, their suicide bombing religion, their madrassahs and their cultures. 

These people are plain losers. They do not know head or tail about anything. They think they are fighting for Islam. Pi dah mabuk. It is just Arabs playing politics with religion. 

While we were thinking of helping the Palestinians, Yasser Arafat and his cronies were making billions in Palestine. They also keep quiet over the fact that Yasser Arafat married a Christian woman. Jangan salah faham saya ok - it is not a wrong thing to do at all. Importantly she was a woman. These days we do have men marrying men or 'saya pemimpin Islam' types sodomising coffee boys, their supporters shouting 'Allahu Akbar' and the church people going 'Praise the Lord'.  I tell you folks, all religious people (of all religions) are just sick, sick, sick. 

Anyway if you search Yahoo "Arafat's billions" this may pop up:

"His wife and daughter received a $100,000 a month out of the Palestinian budget, living the high life in Paris. Where did all this wealth come from?
World Bank official Palestinian Salman Fayyad became finance minister in 2003, and immediately began seeing why Palestinians seemed so squeezed by the economy and how Arafat was staying so financially prosperous. According to a study of Arafat's finances done in 2003, Fayyad showed that:
 "although the money for the portfolio came from public funds like Palestinian taxes, virtually none of it was used for the Palestinian people; it was all controlled by Arafat. And none of these dealings were made public."
Arafat had used a system of monopolies in commodities and staples like flour and cement to fleece the people, farming out lucrative contracts to friends to price gouge his own people. When Salman Fayyad broke up one monopoly, the price of gas went down 20 percent for gas and 80 percent less for diesel fuel."
So brothers and sisters in Islam, before you become a suicide bomber, please do a little bit more research. These people are thoroughly confused. They do not know what Islam is all about.

How about a glass of clean drinking water? Respect for stray dogs? Or any kind of dog at all? How about being nice to your neighbour? Here is something else - how about getting a job? If you are a Muslim, and you are reading this, do you have a job? Say a regular 9 - 5 job, like the rest of the world? Or do you run some business or enterprise with regular schedules? Itu pun takde ke? Then what exactly is your perjuangan?

Dirty water (like in Kelantan), shoot dogs indiscriminately (like in Pakatan controlled Petaling Jaya), be rude to your neighbours (this one covers all Muslims), no 9-5 job (if every Muslim had a job, there is no time for suicide bombers).

Imagine if these two suicide bombers had regular 9-5 jobs or had some business to run. Surely they would not become suicide bombers. I mean surely in their Leave Form (Borang Cuti) they cannot write "Saya mohon cuti lima hari untuk operasi suicide bombing di Lebanon". I dont think the Boss or Supervisor would approve their leave. 

I would say, 'Have you cleaned the glass showcases first? Have you called the customers whose orders have arrived?' Have you checked with DBKL about that Tangki Air Hujan approval?' You know silly things like that lah which you would find in a jewellery business or a property development outfit.

Folks, actually this is not funny. We just need to ban or stop all these stupid religious overdose that exists in our country. I hope those people whose job it is to advise the Prime Minister are reading this. I also intend to get this message direct to the PM. So please do something. 

These two Malaysian suicide bombers represent an escalation of religious insanity in Malaysia.  Please put a stop to this now.

Malaysian Suicide Bombers : Hisham Wake Up !!

Posted: 28 Oct 2012 04:20 PM PDT

A few weeks back I was invited to attend a dialogue with the KSU of the Ministry of Home Affairs. The discussion was supposed to get feedback from interested groups about various security issues. I think they put me on the invitation list because I write about these things very often in my Blog. As you are all aware I touch upon security issues quite frequently - especially about undesirable activities that threaten the security of our country and also about undesirable foreign elements.  

Well the dialogue got posponed - indefinitely I think. I dont know why - the Ministry got cold feet.

I am not surprised at all about this shocking news today about the two Malaysian suicide bombers arrested in Lebanon. Here is the news :  
  • 1. Home Ministry probing two M'sian terror suspects nabbed in Beirut
  • arrested on Oct 18 links with al-Qaeda terrorist.
  • Rafik Mohd Aaref, Mohd Razin Shaaban no link to Jemaah Islamiah & Darul Islam
  • aged 21 and 28, suspected of being suicide bombers
And also this report :
  • 2. Lebanon arrests two Malaysian suspected suicide bombers
  • linked to al-Qaeda terrorist organisation.
  • Malaysians were detained by army intelligence 
  • recruited into al-Qaeda by another Malaysian before being taken to Yemen 
  • tried to enter Syria via Turkey to carry out suicide attacks.
  • attacks coordinated by a man responsible for all jihadists into Syria.
  • failed to enter Syria, decided to head to Lebanon 
Well I knew this would happen. It was just a question of time. Just a few days ago I wrote this Blog :  Salam Brother, This May Be You .  Do you remember?

It was about the silly Bangla suicide bomber boy who wanted to blow up the US Federal Reserve in New York.  My concern was it could also be Malaysians who can be suicide bombers. Looking at the numbers of 'religiously' confused people around in Malaysia today, my reading is anyone of them could become a suicide bomber.   And this news report about these two arrests in Lebanon just confirms my concern. 

To all my Muslim readers, from time to time please check what your nephews, brothers, cousins, uncles, fathers are all up to - especially if they do not shave, wear turbans and jubah,  if they travel to strange "Islamic" countries or associate with people with unhygienic appearances from strange "Islamic"  countries.  Just keep an eye on things. It may save you tons of sorrow.

Folks,  I also searched my own Blog for 'Malaysian suicide bombers' because I know I have touched on this subject more than once. The following Blogs on this subject of terrorist activity in Malaysia popped up : 




And do you recall this picture :



These are the three Iranian bombers who messed up a bomb plot in Bangkok and some of them got caught. These Iranian bombers had used Malaysia as a transit point.  There are more Blogs I have posted about this subject but this is a good refresher. 

I also recall writing before about these Taliban types who hang around Kuala Lumpur. They are obviously from the sub-continent (usually from Pakistan Zindabad). They are not tourists (no cameras), they are not carpet merchants or gemstone traders and neither are they religious preachers. They wear the white pyjama like the Taliban, they have long beards and wear turbans. They dont speak Malay or English. They usually speak Urdu and they are very comfortable getting around Kuala Lumpur. You can see them im Masjid India as well - they pray five times a day at the mosque. I have aways wondered who these people are. They seem to know where to go and they seem to have things to do. They do not just hang around the place.

Now we hear that there are suicide bomber recruiters working in Malaysia who recruited Rafek Mohd Aaref and Mohd Razin Shaaban aged 21 and 28 years to become suicide bombers in Syria. But when Syria did not let them in, they switched target to Lebanon. Do they still get their 72 virgins if they switch targets from Syria to Lebanon?  The only way a suicide bomber can switch targets if money has exchanged hands. 

How did all this escape our security apparatus?  There has to be a serious revamp of our security screening.  Some of our own crows are coming home to roost. Considering that we are such a polyglot nation, some of these crows may speak urdu, punjabi, pashtun and even parsi. We have to be better prepared.  

This is a bit beyond Mas Selamat Kastari sleeping under a rubber tree in a Johor plantation. This is not good news at all.

And why does our Foreign Ministry want to engage lawyers for the two boys arrested in Lebanon. That is what I accidentally heard on the 8:00PM news just now.  That is using taxpayers' money. The concept does not jive. Does the Foreign Ministry help engage lawyers for all those Malaysian drug mules (mostly young Malay girls) who are arrested in China, Colombia and elsewhere?  No? So what is so special about suicide bombers? They decide to behave stupid, let them bear the consequences lah. Jangan jadi dua kali lima pula. Dua kali lima equals half past six.
