LETTER | The need for monitoring the police is already very well established in Malaysia.

on March 18, titled “We must also honour policemen and women during the Covid-19 pandemic.”

It is right and proper that their leader, the IGP, reminds the public of the sacrifices policemen and women are making. We are glad he has conducted checks to ensure that they are using all the available means of protection against the Covid-19 virus. We fear that those words will override everything the IGP has said in the past about the need to reform the police. In his famous open letter about the kleptocrat-government, he even said he would like to become head of the integrity department so that he could help clean up the force.

Malaysians are also aware that due to police resistance, the Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission , which was supposed to be a tiger, has been turned into a pussy cat. In the present political climate, the IPCMC may be just a pipe dream. We note also that the need for monitoring the police is already very well established in Malaysia. Lockups and interrogation rooms are equipped with video cameras. Police are trialling body cameras.

Edict calls upon the public not to be cowed by the IGP’s words. Keep honouring the good work done by the bulk of the police. Serving in the police force is no small thing. Policemen and women make a big sacrifice and are bound to a code: The Police Act, 1967.

LETTER | A different approach to Covid-19LETTER | Malaysia needs robust debates about the best way forward. Has the curfew imposed by the Perikatan Nasional Malay-Islamofascists and their running dogs who got themselves appointed PM and Ministers by the Agong on businesses and people killed the Corvid-19 virus? No. That's why this curfew is the stupidest method to battle Corvid-19. The key word is 'priority' ... human life or .....or desease which can spread out of control..or to..other things. Not worth to comment. Life cant be rebuild or restored mind you .Economy or education can.

LETTER | Gov't support and financial packages to save local airlinesMAS, AirAsia and Malindo Air are suffering due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Was Tony and Kamaruddin thinking of AirAsia shareholders when they unilaterally offset the Airbus $250m to their personal hobbies F1 and QPR ? So , go F-off tonyfernandes MAS ? maybe, as it's a national carrier AirAsia ? never I can only agree with this if, 1. The airline industry is viable in the next 1 to 2 years. I don't see this as countries will control/limit travel. Nobody wants to fly. 2. There is no better use for the limited resources used to bailout airlines. 3. Taxpayer not involved.
