许子根两度封赐拿督勋衔予涉嫌土地舞弊案的阿末依斯迈，根本就是认贼做父！

槟州首席部长政治秘书兼光大区州议员黄伟益于2008年9月4日（星期四）在槟城乔治市发表的声明：

许子根在担任槟州首席部长期间，不仅没有针对涉嫌土地舞弊案的巫统升旗山区部主席阿末依斯迈采取法律行动，而且还两度封赐拿督勋衔予对方，毫无疑问地显露其认贼作父的本质与性格！

阿末依斯迈担任董事的Popular Profile私人有限公司（PPSB）曾在1997年5月9日向槟州发展机构，以554万407令吉11仙价格，购买位于武吉敏惹工业区、面积达10.4英亩的地段。随之，PPSB缴付总额20％的订金。

1998年5月30日，PPSB申请中止合约，并要求取回20％订金。但是，槟州发展机构决定根据买卖合约，充公相当于售价10％的订金，余额则归还买方。

PPSB所缴付的20％订金，其中50万令吉是通过向Perbadanan Usahawan Nasional Berhad（PUNB）贷款所得。在申请贷款过程中，PPSB获槟州发展机构同意将土地拥有权抵押给PUNB。

然而，槟州发展机构在将另10％订金归还给买方时，没有直接将这笔订金归还给PUNB，反而直接缴还给PPSB。而且，PPSB没有把这笔订金缴付给PUNB，让PUNB能够把这个土地拥有权归还给槟州发展机构，以致槟州发展机构必须耗另外50万令吉缴付PUNB，以赎回这个抵押给PUNB的地段。

从整个过程看来，许子根似乎屈服于巫统领袖的淫威，而不敢针对阿末依斯迈采取法律行动。更荒唐的是，许子根竟在2002年向槟州元首推荐封赐DMPN拿督勋衔予阿末依斯迈。阿末依斯迈曾在1996年受封DSPN拿督勋衔。

基于此案牵涉公众利益，许子根有必要向全槟人民解释为何没有对阿末依斯迈采取法律行动，反而还在2002年第二度封赐拿督勋衔予阿末依斯迈？

许子根没有惩罚应该接受法律制裁的人物，反而还要奖励这类出卖槟州人民利益的巫统领袖，再次应证“好人不做正事，坏人永远当道”这句至理名言的正当性。如果这不叫做认贼做父，难道又是什么呢？

Are they sexy?

I received a sms on the night of Merdeka eve countdown, saying that the performers are sexy. The unknown sender also claims that the artists singing let us fuck around, let us fucking!

However, for me, this sms is totally baseless and ridiculous. These photos are the best proof that our performers are not sexy. It's just a normal fashion show!

PDC lodges report against Ahmad and former company

The Star
By ANDREA FILMER

BALIK PULAU: The Penang Development Corporation (PDC) has lodged reports with the police and Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) over alleged misappropriation of funds involving former senator Datuk Ahmad Ismail and the now-defunct company Popular Profile Sdn Bhd (PPSB).

PDC legal adviser Zainun Abdul Rahman made the police report at the Bayan Lepas police station on Wednesday.

Zainun, who spent more than four hours at the station, was escorted out by a police officer and only spoke briefly to the press.

“I am here acting on the instructions of the Chief Minister who is also the PDC chairman,” she said.

She declined to divulge details of the report but said that most people had already “read about it (the case) in the newspaper”.

When contacted, PDC general manager Datuk Rosli Jaafar also confirmed that an ACA complaint had been made on Wednesday afternoon.

“We are leaving it up to the police and ACA to investigate the matter,” he said.

State deputy police chief Senior Asst Comm (I) Datuk Salleh Mat Rasid confirmed a police report had been lodged but declined to elaborate as investigations were pending.

On Tuesday, Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said the state would lodge a police report and ACA complaint over a RM500,000 loss of state funds in a 1997 PDC land deal in Bukit Minyak.

He said the deal had fallen through after PPSB, of which Ahmad was then a director, had failed to come up with the purchase price of RM5.5mil.

Half of the down payment or RM554,000 was returned to the company while the other half was confiscated by PDC.

Lim said PPSB had failed to transfer the money to deal financer Perbadanan Usahawan Nasional Bhd who was holding the land title which resulted in PDC having to fork out an additional RM500,000 to regain the rights.

PPSB wound up in 2005 and Ahmad, who is currently under investigation for allegedly uttering seditious racists remarks, is believed to have broken off all affiliation with the company in 1998.

Ahmad Ismail misses 'appointment' with police

The Star
By BERNARD SEE

GEORGE TOWN: Bukit Bendera Umno division chief Datuk Ahmad Ismail, who has had police reports lodged against him, did not turn up for an interview with the police on Tuesday.

Police are still waiting for him to give his statement over seditious remarks he allegedly made in the run-up to the Aug 26 Permatang Pauh by-election.

State deputy police chief Senior Asst Comm (I) Datuk Salleh Mat Rasid said an investigating officer contacted the Umno leader early this week, asking him to turn up at the Bukit Mertajam district police headquarters on Tuesday.

"But he never turned up and the interview was rescheduled to today (Wednesday) afternoon," SAC Salleh said.

As at 5.45pm, he had still not turned up.

Attempts to contact Ahmad over the past few days to get his side of the story have been unsuccessful. A check by The Star around on Wednesday found his bungalow in the exclusive Robina Park in Butterworth deserted.

"Five reports have been lodged against him in George Town, Bukit Mertajam, Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya over the past week.

"Once Ahmad gives his statement, we hope to wrap our investigations by Friday as most of the statements by others have been taken. The file will then be sent to the Attorney-General in Putrajaya for further action," SAC Salleh told reporters at a press conference on Wednesday morning.

Ahmad is being investigated under 4 (1) (b) of the Sedition Act 1948, he said, urging people to let the police do their work.

Ahmad had allegedly called Malaysian-Chinese pendatang (immigrants) at a ceramah (political address) prior to the Permatang Pauh by-election. His statement caused a furore and has been condemned by parties on either side of the political divide.

槟州政府明年起 拨百万给5独中

槟州首席部长林冠英为独中捎来好消息，槟州政府从2009年起常年固定拨款100万令吉给州内5独中！

槟州行政议会于周二一致通过，从明年度槟州财政预算案中，拨出100万令吉的基金给州内5所华文独中。

这笔总值100万令吉的拨款，将正式编列在槟州2009年度财政预算案内，并首次列为槟州政府给予独中的固定拨款。

这也是槟州政府透过本身的权限，实现“制度化拨款给州内独中”的承诺。有关的拨款将直接从州政府财库拨出。

槟城目前共有5所独中，分别是钟灵独中、槟华独中、韩江中学、日新独中及菩提独中。5所独中每年都面对庞大的开支，州政府此举旨在以实际行动，减轻州内独中的财务负担。

至于这笔100万令吉拨款，将会以5所独中平分的方式，或以另一种管道来分配，将交由以章瑛国会议员为首的槟州华教事务协调委员会作决定。

目前，槟州首席部长林冠英指示章瑛国会议员与华教事务协调委员会开会讨论，以制定一个拨款分配指南，再让首长作出最后的决定及批准。

槟州独中明年度肯定享有100万令吉的拨款总额。在这之前，每所独中每年仅获得州政府4万令吉的拨款，2008年每所独中所获的拨款则增至5万令吉（2008年总拨款额为20万令吉）。

槟州华校事务协调委员会名单：

法律顾问：郭贤福律师；主席：章瑛国会议员；秘书：魏祥敬；个人委员：丹斯里陈国平、陈智铭、包锦松、黎馥纲；团体委员：许海明局绅及李添霖（槟威华校董事联合会代表）、骆保林及陈顺利（槟州华校校友会联合会代表）及林子亮（槟州独中教育基金会代表）。
