another exploding exposure from the judiciary?
Post on Jun.11, 2008
so it seems, yes. some of you have heard/read the news already as several bloggers had blog on it already. yes i’m talking about the revelation of sarawak high court judge, ian chin, as you can read here in malaysiakini.
(picture here taken from malaysiakini)
Chin’s allegations that Mahathir had threatened judges with removal should they decide unfavourably towards his administration
apart from malaysiakini, you can read it from the borneo post, which first broke the news, i believe. then of course from the famous bloggers:
jeff ooi – justice HC ian chin… explosive judicial disclosure
rocky – our fearful judiciary
haris ibrahim – DSAI, you want to spill the rest of the beans?
lim kit siang - CnP from borneo post, but do read the many comments there
susan loone - ‘recalcitrant’ judges in boot camp
full text of judge chin’s speech
a question many had been asking – "why now he choose to reveal? why after 20 years?".
a thought on most people’s mind – "oh no, the judiciary again!" (after the lingam tape, see)
a ‘i’m not surprised’ statement from everyone – "what do you expect from mahathir?"
correct?
correct correct correct!
or should it be…
corrupt corrupt corrupt!
in that case, everything should be…
korek korek korek!
(dig out!)

Better late than never. Perhaps the case he is hearing gave him the right platform to come out with this exposure. I have blogged about this.

Our fake PM is so heavenly lucky that he has the de facto this and that minister and that and this pseudo minister to help and abuse him in his daily de facto work and recreation. He still draws a handsome salary plus unimaginable perks and benefits also big jet and his daily dose of nasi kandar / briyani bungkus. Every few days this come this go then this flip that flop. This revelation, that revelation. This bombshell that bombshell.
So what ! He’s still standing ( and sleeping ) and shall I say enjoying life to the fullest ! Abdullah bolih ! the Grandmaster of Malaysia !
