| Who's the cow head? Posted: 27 Jun 2014 10:23 PM PDT A-ah. A severed cow's head was dumped at the home of R.S.N. Rayer this morning. Home Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said it was the result of the DAP lawmaker's ' big mouth' for calling 'Umno celaka' recently.
I agree with Zahid but all this has to stop. BN and PR should observe a more mannered way in managing their politics. They must refrain from making remarks that could strain inter-racial harmony. Its getting us nowhere. Politicians must set good examples and use their positions to help the rakyat and not to break them apart. Meanwhile, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar said police were investigating the incident. He declined to comment further.
Rayer, who is the Seri Delima assemblyman, did not link the incident to his remark at the Penang assembly.
"I cannot say that this has to do with that... but this (the cow head) is the first such incident I have encountered since then.
His "Umno celaka" remark resulted in a group of Umno Youth members demanding an apology and action be taken against him.
Rayer was to have been charged with sedition last week over the remark, but the Attorney-General (A-G) ordered at the last minute that his case be deferred.
This morning's incident is not the first time a cow's head has been used in protest against Hindus.
In 2009, a group of residents from Shah Alam had brought a cow's head to the Selangor state secretariat building in protest against the state government's decision to relocate a 150-year-old Hindu temple from Section 19 to Section 23.
One person was subsequently sentenced to a week's jail and fined RM3,000 over the incident while about 10 others who were with him were fined RM1,000 each for illegal assembly. I am not in favor of Rayer, not do I condone those who sent the cow's head to his house but I if people like Rayer and few others stop being a bunch of 'political bloody fools', it wouldn't had triggered mass anger! Malaysians are beginning to hate things like this!  |
| Ghost plane... Posted: 27 Jun 2014 01:08 AM PDT I think we really need to employ the shaman (bomoh) who created some stunts at KLIA a few days after Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 went missing. Didn't he say that the plane 'entered another dimension' or 'taken away by the big garuda bird?' He made headlines worldwide, making him more famous than US President Barack Obama and our minister in charge of the search and rescue operation Hishammuddin Tun Hussein. A theory after another! Australia said the search for MH370 has shifted further south and the aircraft is now believed to have been on autopilot before it disappeared.
"It is highly likely that the aircraft was on autopilot.
"Otherwise, it could not have followed the orderly path that has been identified through the satellite sightings," said Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss during a press conference in Canberra yesterday.
However, he said the investigators could not, and had not intended to, pinpoint the moment when the aircraft was put on autopilot.
"We know it was on autopilot during the critical phase of our tracking but it will be a matter for the Malaysia-based investigation team to look at precisely when it may have been put on autopilot," said Truss, who also declined to comment on speculation about the pilot having flown the course on his simulator, pointing out that it was irrelevant to their task of finding the aircraft.
"I don't really want to comment on areas which will probably be the responsibility of Malaysia and its investigators," he said.
Truss said the Australian Transport Safety Bureau had released a report which outlined the basis for their conclusion that the new search area was the most likely place where the aircraft could be found.
He said the new priority search zone was 60,000sqkm, and was greatly expanded compared to the previous underwater search area of only 860sqkm.
"The new phase of the search will have two elements. Firstly there will be mapping of the sea floor in the area, which is already under way, and a comprehensive search once mapping had been completed," he said.
Mapping is currently being undertaken by Chinese survey ship Zhu Kezhen and the Australian-contracted vessel Fugro Equator.
Truss said mapping of the very deep sea floor was expected to take about three months to complete, while the underwater search was expected to commence by August.
"To put new equipment into the area without a clear knowledge of what the sea floor is like will certainly put at risk the capacity of that equipment to operate safely," he said.
Truss added that the search effort would include equipment provided by Malaysia, including vessels equipped with towed sonar systems.
Despite acknowledging the enormity of the task, Truss remains optimistic.
"The search is still going to be painstaking. Of course, we could be fortunate and find it in the first hour or the first day, but it could take another 12 months." Yes, no sign of it yet, not even a single debris. However, many people had come up with their own story about the plane, some even accused the FBI, CIA and Boeing of hiding the truth about the incident. And here in Malaysia, the government has been accused of sealing some documents and valid data about it, prompting a call for those involved be charged or just quit their post. Where is the bomoh anyway?  |
