Flying Without Wings

Everybody's looking for that something One thing that makes it all complete You find it in the strangest places Places you never knew it could be Some find it in the face of their children Some find it in their lover's eyes Who can deny the joy it brings When you found that special thing You're flying without wings Some find it sharing every morning Some in their solitary lives You find it in the words of others A simple line can make you laugh or cry You find it in the deepest friendship The kind you cherish all your life And when you know how much that means You've found that special thing You're flying without wings So impossible as they may seem You've got to fight for every dream 'Cause who's to know Which one you let go Would have made you complete Well, for me it's waking up beside you To watch the sunrise on your face To know that I can say I love you In any given time or place It's little things that only I know Those are the things that

Selangor govt finds former MB Khir Toyo guilty

Published: Tuesday May 19, 2009 MYT 5:10:00 PM By WANI MUTHIAH SHAH ALAM: Selangor’s Select Committee on Competence, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat) has found former mentri besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo guilty of not attending its inquiry in March into the disbursement of state agency funds. The committee, under the Selangor State Legislative Assembly, has also found him guilty of three charges of making disparaging remarks and negative statements on Selcat’s legitimacy, in the media and on his blog. He was slapped with an earlier one-year suspension for his failure to attend the inquiry, and six months each for the three consecutive charges. All his allowances and privileges as an assemblyman would also be suspended. However, Selcat chairman Teng Chang Khim said these were only recommendations made by Selcat. “These recommendations would be brought to the next State Assembly sitting in July for debate. Everybody involved, including Dr Mohd Khir, will be allowed to debat

Plots given to five-year-olds and grassroots politicians

Thursday May 14, 2009 Plots given to five-year-olds and grassroots politicians PETALING JAYA: At least two five-year-olds are among 81 youngsters who were allocated plots of land in a squatter resettlement area in Taman Selayang Mutiara, Selangor, in a land scam which began more than 20 years ago. Hundreds of names of eligible original squatters in the Bukit Botak resettlement project, meanwhile, were deleted and replaced with those of people, some of whom are now only in their 20s. These landowners were born between 1978 and 1980 — meaning they would have been between just five and seven when they were assigned the lots in 1985. Plots were also given to outsiders, including some not from Selangor, who are obviously not entitled or qualified to get the land. On top of that, plots were also given to grassroots politicians who were not squatters or even residing in the area. The resettlement scheme started in 1985 when large tracts of land were pledged to the 1,634 original squatters. Th

Siva lodges police report over ‘gun’ at assembly

Thursday May 14, 2009 Siva lodges police report over ‘gun’ at assembly IPOH: Former Speaker V. Sivakumar has lodged a police report over claims that an object, believed to be a firearm, was brought into the Perak State Assembly sitting on May 7. “An unidentified man brought an object believed to be a firearm into the state assembly sitting,” said Perak DAP secretary Nga Kor Ming during a press conference. “Nobody, not even the assemblymen, is allowed to bring firearms into the house. We want the Attorney-General to charge those involved,” he said, adding that it broke global parliamentary conventions. He showed reporters a video clip taken using a mobile phone of a man pulling out an object from his left rear waistband. However, only a blurry image of the object could be seen on the video. Nga claimed that the object could be a revolver. Sivakumar, who was at the press conference, later lodged a police report on the matter at the Ipoh police headquarters. Nga also urged the Attorney-Ge

Perak crisis: Details on stay of execution

Published: Tuesday May 12, 2009 MYT 5:13:00 PM Perak crisis: Details on stay of execution By LISA GOH PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal on Tuesday granted a stay of execution on the High Court’s ruling that Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin is the rightful mentri besar of Perak. With the stay order, status quo remains with Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir as the Perak Mentri Besar pending his appeal against the High Court’s ruling on Monday. Justice Ramly Ali granted the stay at about 1.15pm following an application by Zambry at about 9.30am Tuesday. Zambry also filed an appeal at the Kuala Lumpur High Court registry at about 9am. “The court notes that the circumstance of this case is very unique as it does not only involve the applicant and respondent but the entire state of Perak. “Based on the practise of this court, which has the jurisdiction to grant the stay, the stay is granted,” he said, adding: “The court will fix an early date for the appeal hearing.” Nizar’s lead counsel Sulai

Zambry compares himself to Mandela, Gandhi

Published: Tuesday May 12, 2009 MYT 12:47:00 PM Zambry compares himself to Mandela, Gandhi By CLARA CHOOI IPOH: Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir, whose nearly three-month tenure as mentri besar was ruled illegitimate by the Kuala Lumpur High Court on Monday, has likened himself to Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi. Warning Pakatan Rakyat not to under-estimate him, he said the High Court’s “shocking decision” did not mean he would give up the fight. “To me, losing the mentri besar post will not reduce my fighting spirit in upholding the truth. If reinstated Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin and his “friends ... assume that the High Court’s decision will dampen my spirit, then they have read me wrong,” he said in a blog entry early Tuesday morning. He said a person did not need to hold a post in his struggle to uphold the truth, and likened the recent struggles faced by him and his “comrades from the Barisan Nasional” to those endured by politicians like Nelson Mandela and

Dissolve state assembly, Ku Li urges Sultan

Published: Tuesday May 12, 2009 MYT 11:05:00 AM Dissolve state assembly, Ku Li urges Sultan By SYED AZHAR KOTA BARU: Umno veteran Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah has urged the Sultan of Perak to dissolve the Assembly to prevent the political imbroglio in the state from spiralling out of control. In a blog posting on Monday, he noted that he had written on Feb 7 that Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamad Nizar Jamaluddin was still the legal mentri besar despite the takeover by Barisan Nasional. He had said then that according to the state constitution, Nizar was the mentri besar until he resigned of his own accord or was removed by a vote of no confidence in a formal sitting of the Assembly. The Perak constitution makes no provision for his removal by any other means, including by petitions or instructions from any other authority, he had written then. “Today, after three months and yet more shameful scenes, the High Court affirmed the same elementary principle, and held that Nizar has been and remai
