REPLY & FEEDBACK OF THE ARTICLE: ENTITLED "JUST DO IT, NOT MONEY" BY Raja Petra Kamaruddin IN MALAYSIA TODAY WEBSITE ON January 6, 2012



The Petaling Jaya City Council would like to explain the wild accusations about the handling of court cases, the members of MBPJ Council, Mr Derek Fernandez and Latheefa Koya company or its legal is incorrect and defamatory.
2) It is confirmed that the Law Firm MBPJ Council (Mr. Derek Fernandez) or the firm of Messrs Fernandez & Selvarajah, is not in the list of Panel Counsel MBPJ and he has never given any legal work for MBPJ cases.
3) Furthermore, it is asserted that no law firm under the name of Derrick Thomas & Co. in MBPJ Counsel Panel list.
4) As one of the Council in MBPJ, Mr Derek Fernandez never received any remuneration from the Council in providing legal advice. All advice and professional opinion as a lawyer Mr Derek Fernandez is provided without any charge in respect of the Council Committee meeting related to legal issues with the Council.
5) Next is also asserted that the council did not appoint Mr N Surendran as a lawyer of the Council and his law firm of Messrs. Edwin, Lim Soh and suren is never in MBPJ legal list.
6) In relation to the MBPJ Council, Ms Latheefa Koya in Messrs Daim and Gamany, and the appointment of the Honourable Sivarasa partners Messrs Daim and Gamany, this matter has been discussed in the special discussion after the Full Council Meeting dated August 25 2009, attended by all Members of the Council without the presence of Ms Latheefa Koya, in which the Legal Adviser Petaling Jaya City Council has given a written opinion that since Ms. Latheefa Koya, not a partner in the firm, he was just as an employee ( legal assistant), it does not happen a conflict of interest (conflict of interest), the law firm Gamany Daim and a panel of lawyers are included in the Council. 
           
7) In the matter of appointing a panel of lawyers, the power to appoint is under the jurisdiction of the Commissioner only. Council members may not appoint a law firm and can provide a collective view of the ability and / or expertise of a law firm to handle a case of the Council based on the following criteria:
i. Firm expertise in handling a complex case
ii. Quotations are usually within the confines of the legal fee scale policy
iii. Firm performance and success in handling cases
8) Since the year 2008 to 2011, a law firm Daim and Gamany only operate four (4) cases from a total of 53 cases. At the time, Ms. Latheefa Koya never occupied any committee to discuss the appointment of Messrs Daim & Gamany.
Strictly speaking these articles is a false statement and create a negative perception of the community.Accordingly, the Mrs was asked to publish this feedback without editing the blog operated the gentlemen.
Thank you.
