Untouchables Of The Klang Valley
24 August 2007 |

If you're someone who Pak Lah says is a good wakil rakyat, you can
expect to receive this sort of treatment:

All 37 charges against controversial Port Klang assemblyman Datuk
Zakaria Md Deros and five of his business partners instituted by the
Companies Commission (CC) have been withdrawn.

... Mozni Sham Ahmad and Joseph R. Samuel who appeared for Zakaria, his
partners and the two companies said the charges were withdrawn because
the "outstanding problems had been settled".

Companies Commission's prosecutor Azmil Haron told magistrate Fadzilatul
Isma Ahmad Refngah that he had been instructed to withdraw the charges
against the two companies and its directors. [The Star]

Semua boleh settle, innit? What can I say except, Hidup Pak Lah!

SPEAKING OF Port Klang, you caught the New Straits Times' front page
today - Govt throws lifeline to Port Klang Free Zone?

All I want to highlight here is this - remember the mug shots I put up
in that other post?

Some of you asked who they were. Ok. Turn to Page 4 of the New Straits
Times today. See the graphic, "Cost of Port Klang Free Zone", and read
the Note, which says:

Port Klang Authority bought land from Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd at RM25 per
sq ft. Kuala Dimensi bought the land at RM3 per sq ft.

Who sold the land to Kuala Dimensi?

It was Syarikat Koperasi Nelayan Melayu Pulau Indah Sdn Bhd. The
cooperative's chairman at the time was Onn Ismail.

He is currently the Umno permanent chairman, Selangor State Assembly
speaker, as well as Kapar Umno permanent chairman. Abang Zek up there is
one of his machais.

The chairman of Kuala Dimensi is Azim Zabidi, who is currently Umno
treasurer, as well as chairman of Bank Simpanan Nasional and Bukit
Bintang Umno chief.

He is also the chairman of various other corporate concerns. Such a
talented man, he is.

The deputy CEO of public listed Wijaya Baru Global Bhd, which owns
Kuala Dimensi, is Faizal Abdullah.

He is Kapar Umno youth chief and Selangor Umno deputy youth chief, as
well as son-in-law of Onn Ismail.

Faizal resigned from the Majlis Perbandaran Klang after he was found to
have constructed his house without the proper approvals, just like Abang
Zek.

This is what he said then:

"I will take the punishment but will still like to serve the party and
the people in the future."

"Let this be an important lesson for me to be more responsible when
carrying out the mandate given by the party and the people," he added.

... "It shows the importance of the need to respect the law especially
now that the people have become more aware." [The Star]

The land agreement between Port Klang Authority and Kuala Dimensi was
drafted by Rashid Asari & Co.

The firm is headed by Abdul Rashid Asari, who is Kapar Umno vice-chief,
and member of Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam.

So there you go.

As I have said before, Malaysians are very generous.

People rob our country and what do we do? We give them more money.

And worst, after that, we let them go, just like that.

Because if I were a betting man, I would bet my mother, my father, my
wife and my children that these people will still be in positions of
power, authority and influence after the next general election.

Nothing changes if we Malaysians do not change things. MERDEKA!
