Burger chain owner hailed as hero after exposing corruption racket in Selangor

KUALA LUMPUR- The owner of a roadside burger chain has been hailed a hero for releasing two videos to allege Malaysian police and city council officers were"protecting" gambling-machine syndicates and foreign migrants selling contraband cigarettes in a Selangor township where he operates one of his stalls.

"Those who side with corrupters or protect illegal foreigners, gambling dens must be stopped," wrote one poster on a Youtube video discussing Mr Asri's expose, among the hundreds of comments supporting the burger entrepreneur, and shooting venom at the authorities. In another video, Mr Asri showed what he claimed were"foreigners" standing by the roadside to sell cigarettes imported illegally from Indonesia.

Sungai Buloh district's police chief Superintendent Shafa'aton Abu Bakar said Mr Asri's claims damaged the police's reputation. Asri Janggut: Arrests of MBSA officers are a 'triumph for the people' Search 'Asri Janggut' in Youtube today and one could find more than 200 videos from mainstream and Internet media of him talking about the issue and defending himself, and others commenting on what he did.
