Why is Musa protecting a ‘criminal’?

Alleged Filipino conman Manuel Amalilio was given a
legal and valid Phillipines passport in 2009. This
means he automatically lost his citizenship under
Article 24 of the federal constitution.

PETALING JAYA: Sabah Chief Minister Musa Aman must explain the depth of his ‘family’ ties with alleged Filipino conman Manuel Amililio and why he obstructed the later’s arrest and deportation to the Philipinnes. He also must explain why the entire court proceedings involving Amililo was carried out in a hospital.

Musa had last week admitted that Amalilio was a ‘distant relative’ but said ‘whether or not’ they were related the authorities must carry out a thorough investigation.

Amililio, was arrested last November and immediately ‘handed over’ to the Philippines police. But 10minutes before boarding the flight the decision was rescinded and he was returned to Sabah police.

Mahathir's Tall Tales on Sabah!

By Joe Fernandez

We have heard it all now on Sabah from former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad.

In his latest take on the on-going Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) in the state, Mahathir claims that he instructed that only those eligible in Sabah should be granted citizenship.

This is rich!

He’s degenerating before our very eyes even as a poor liar.

There’s an old Malayalee saying with which Mahathir should be familiar: “Once you tell a lie, you must tell a thousand other lies to cover up the first lie.”

We need many more museums in Sabah

Kudos to the Sabah Muzeum for launching the Keningau for having launched the new museum building in Keningau to exhibit Keningau history and culture. In fact it has been long overdue, knowing that the Keningau district is replete with important history and cultural heritage. It would have been right for such a museum to have been established there since the beginning of independence but as I know it the museum has always been considered a low priority, and never given substantial allocation for the state budget to do all its necessary work, especially in the area of documentary and archaeological research. There had not been enough emphasis on documentation and research in Sabah and this should be addressed immediately, especially by the political leaders.

 

Anak kepada Ibu tunggal, 3 tahun menanti IC

8 Febuari- Hari ini Gabungan NGO Menuntut Hak Rakyat Sabah (GEGAR) tampil ke SUHAKAM bagi membela nasib seorang ibu tunggal kepada tiga orang anak, Puan Ollivia Julius@Mastura Anizan yang dinafikan hak anaknya untuk mendapat kad pengenalan MyKad. Anaknya, Nurul Hamizah Yasmin kini berusia 15 tahun menerima tekanan yang begitu hebat apabila tidak memperolehi kad pengenalan. Nurul Hamizah telah dilahirkan pada 27 November 1998. Lapan bulan selepas itu Nurul Hamizah memperolehi sijil kelahiran dengan cop “pendaftaran lewat”.

Nurul Hamizah terpaksa membawa sijil lahirnya kemana sahaja dan seringkali berasa malu untuk keluar rumah. Ketika Nurul Hamizah berusia 12 tahun, Puan Ollivia telah mengemukakan permohonan Mykad daripada Jabatan Pendaftaran Negeri (JPN) Kota Kinabalu untuk anaknya. Namun, permohonan tersebut ditolak oleh pihak JPN atas alasan Sijil Kelahiran tersebut perlu dibawa ke mahkamah terlebih dahulu untuk pengesahan.

Anti-Sabah and Sarawak page draws flak

The Facebook page, created by one Mohd Syahiran,
pours scorn on East Malaysians.

PETALING JAYA: An anti-Sabah and Sarawak Facebook page, created on Dec 19 last year, has raised the ire of social networking page users.

Named the Semenanjung Malaya Anti-Sabah dan Sarawak page, the site is created to criticise the East Malaysian states and even referred to residents there as “ungrateful”.

“Peninsula doesn’t need Sabah and Sarawak for 1Malaysia. The East Malaysians have no brains, stupid and love to encroach into other’s territory. What a shame for Malaysia,” read the description.
