YOURSAY ‘Not only Zahid did betray the police and colluded with a criminal but...’
Phua a convicted criminal in M'sia, says source
Kim Quek: A probable scenario that is unfolding in a supposed democracy - the home minister cooked up a cock and bull story to hoodwink the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) into releasing an alleged big-time international underworld kingpin awaiting trial in a US court, and yet the prime minister has steadfastly remained silent and done nothing about it.
Despite such huge scandal remaining hanging in the air, which would have rocked any democracy, the PM decided to journey to a world economic forum where, acting as the country’s super salesman, he tried to entice global corporate heavyweights to invest in his country, citing its rule of law as among its excellent assets.
But doesn’t the PM realise that doing nothing about an offence allegedly committed by a minister amounts to abetting the offence and dereliction of PM’s duty, and further, such dereliction is oxymoronic with the claim of excellent rule of law?
While he may take his countrymen for fools, does he think he can get away with fooling international investors in this Internet age when news is transmitted globally at the speed of light?
Starwars: Everybody including the police knows that Phua is a gambling kingpin except Zahid. Not only did Zahid betray the police and colluded with a criminal but Zahid also sold his country, race and religion.
Where is Perkasa? Where is Isma? Where are the so-called defenders of race and religion when this country is being sabotaged by its own minister?
Sugus: I see pressure brewing around the home minister in the bid to oust him. He is innocent till proven guilty. I do not see anything so far that benefits him in this letter to FBI.
He is caught in between two giants fighting for supremacy. But he is a better home minister than anyone else before this.
Louis: Zahid, were you blind to your good friend's illustrious record? Indeed his resume is very interesting. Most interesting of all is that an alleged international crook can be roped in to help in our national security.
Do we really need Phua to help us with our national security? Our police and armed forces have one of the best records in the world in maintaining peace and security.
They performed admirably during the Emergency resulting in the defeat of the communists, which very few countries can boast of.
Besides, they defended the country fearlessly during the confrontation with Indonesia. Secret societies of yesteryears are now but history, thanks to tireless efforts by the police in combating them.
With such excellent records of our police and armed forces, don't you think it is absurd to ask an outsider to assist in our national security, and of all persons, a convicted criminal?
Gordon Gecko: A high-ranking ‘Umno kia’ is helping out a Chinese ‘Sabah kia’ in time of need... and that's what friends are for, regardless of race.
In my opinion, Zahid's real life selfless act outperforms the ‘muhibah’ TV ads we see so often during the Chinese New Year celebration. Who says the Umno-BN government "berjuang untuk bangsa Melayu sahaja"?
Be Mean: The home minister should be a very respected person as he is supposed to be in charge of law and order in the country. If the home minister brings the country into disrepute, the PM should be sacked him without any hesitation.
We, as ordinary citizens, do not know the whole truth. But what we know from published facts are:
1) Phua is a shady character.
2) He is involved with illegal gambling.
Then how can anyone in his right mind, what more a home minister, vouch for his character in a letter written without the knowledge of the government and in the process accusing his police force of making a grave mistake?
How can an alleged criminal be helping with our national security? If that is so, isn’t our government compromising our national security?
There are so many questions left unanswered. And now the home minister conveniently said everything was top secret and protected under OSA. What a mockery.
Come on, Mr PM, it is time for you to demonstrate leadership by putting this recalcitrant man in his rightful place.
Sali Tambap: According to the letter written by Zahid, in his capacity as home minister, the country is eager to have Phua back in order to assist us on national security matters.
Great. Perhaps now Zahid care to explain why the police were told in 2008 “not to allow Phua back into the country...” and he was stopped by the Sarawak immigration from entering the state.
This is really interesting, coming from our home minister whose country is so eager to have this convicted gambler back home.
Dumno: Put simply, the home minister is caught with his pants down and it's not a pretty sight.
Chapati: The IGP and defence minister, who is also in charge of national security, should give a statement to the press to clarify whether Phua actually assisted in matters of national security.
Don’t beat around the bush, we just want to know either 'yes' or ‘no'. -Mkini
