The Malaysian Insider

We don't love our politicians enough because they love themselves too much and not love the rakyat!

Ok, in all fairness it is not right to tar every cop with the same brush.

So the question is - if there were 3 kinds of cops:
a) good, honest & dedicated
b) just getting a paycheck & keeping their heads down waiting for retirement
c) corrupt and worse than criminals sometimes

what are the numbers or % in buckets a,b and c? And who are they?

As a citizen and taxpayer, may I request that all those in bucket (c) be imprisoned immediately by those in (a) while training & motivation be given to (b) to turn them into (a)?

Then crime will reduce.

Easier said than done of course.

Give me half a reason to love our leaders or shall we say 'masters'?
Yes some are pretty some are handsome but all of them are ugly spiritually!

Try visit the local police station and try to lodge a report. Then make your own conclusion.

Reasons are for those who failed. Successful person sing about their achievements. Do not blame the customers when you cannot deliver. This HM does not even know how to cook a better reason about the failure of IGP whom he had extended the employment.

Hahahaa... seriously we used to love them and hold them in the highest regard! Remember the days of red carpet and long wait just for their arrivals and still kow tow and love them? BUT they abuse us and treat their office as means to rob us and gang up to treat the rakyat with contempt as if we are there to serve and fulfil their wishes and commands! Time for rakyat power to show who is the real boss. Like the French revolution. They loved their kings until the day they realised and cannot stomach anymore, the way they were taken advantage of and oppressed for their pleasures! Down with corrupt and lousy leaders!

Let me give you some real life examples.

a) When my car was stolen from my house by burglars/professional car thieves, the policemen that came to my house appeared really un-interested and un-professional. After 10 minutes they told me NOT to expect to find my car - just claim your insurance. Am I supposed to be excited by such a police force? Why do you think premiums keep going up?

b) In Australia I met an ex-Malsyaian police officer (a non-Malay) who told me that after he had arrested the head of the leading illegal betting syndicate in his city, he was called in by his superior. Boss said "Berapa you mau? Bulan bulan boleh dapat mah....lepaskan dia". He quit because he would either be framed up as a corrupt officer or may be set up in an ambush and killed. - So am I supposed to be proud of such a police force? Why do you think illegal 4-D is a part of Malaysian life and you can place bets on any day without fear?

c) I also met an ex-drug pusher who managed to escape the gallows (a Malay man) who told me that the drugs that he retailed were supplied to him by police officers. - Is it any surprise that the drug menace keeps growing but we hardly ever hear of any big kingpins being arrested?

d) I met a retired police officer who told me that the Malaysian police force is now "privatised". Due to very limited personnel and resources, they are only able to patrol and/or respond to calls from "paying" customers. Ex-police have now gone into the business of "security consultants" who you can pay each month and they will ensure that your business is fully protected by the police. -- Hisham, are you surprised that we want to puke at your force?

e) The Statutory Declaration by serving officers displayed on Malaysia Today are a clear indication of what is happening to our Malaysian police force. They have become partners in the lucrative business of protecting corrupt politicians, prostitution, drugs, gaming, human trafficking and the like. Visit any police station and you can see incompetence and "who-gives-a-damn" on public display. - Am I supposed to be impressed by our Malaysian police"

Wake up Hisham. This is the Internet era. Yesterday you would close down the offending publications and put reporters in jail. We will kick you out in the next GE.

Disgusted by the Malaysian police

To fight graft its not enough to prosecute it.Prosecution is at the tail end end of anti graft measures. These begin with educating people from young on the grave ills of graft ;how graft weakens an individual's a group and even more the nations power to excel. It is a slow and deadly cancer. How this is so must be explained and understood so that no one practices nor succumbs to it.

To an individual graft by the giver is an inducement to do or refrain from doing what he must or must not do.The giver does it for a quick fix. The giver will have no hesistation to blackmail. threaten and destroy the taker if the giver does not get his way. .. whether he takes or not any person cohorting with a giver of graft is ensuring his own inevitable destruction. By and large this destruction of the individual becomes so widespread that there is no faith trust or hope in that a system of government will function normally and reliably to deliver peoples expectations ... look at countries in whcih there is widespread graft. Show slides how life of the people is there

So MACC is not the be all nor is all nor the panacea for graft in Malaysia. We need to do much more. Just as we read this , someone out there is readying to slip a red note to a cop to look the other way, to a customs officer to flip over some documents as if he hasnt seen them, to a public officer to short cut procedures and hand over the approval to him quickly, etc etc ..these people werent taught the grave ills to them nor to the country of such acts, breakdown of law and order, loss of revenue to the country, and shoody deliveries, which will make us all very poor and wretched.

So I am still wasting my tax money to pay the salary and high maintenance cost of a minister who failed to do and refuse to do his job, but sort to justify his failure by the very people who pay his salary. It's pretty obvious that his ears are bigger and more prominent than the gray matters in between those ears. If the minister will look into a mirror, he can easily confirm that. He shouldn't waste our time and resources; he can conveniently leap out of his office window. That would be an honorable thing for him to do.

I thought his idiotic ball headed predecessor was bad but this one beats him through and through. Useless offspring

To BangsaMalaysia,

The way you wrote is shown that you are a racist person! By giving an example such as non-malay ex-policemen, malay drug pusher hurt me and I believe other malay malaysian. Look like only non-malay so "clean" whilst malay are all "very bad people"! Come on la, i also seen lots of the other way round. it's good to give example but leave the race out...BTW, it's not only the person who took the bribe is wrong but the person who condoned by giving out bribe is double or triple worst than who took the the bribe! Say No To Giving Duit Kopi!!!

Two men came before God seeking forgiveness. One a hardcore criminal and the other our HM Kerismuddin. The criminal professed his remorse and was truly repentent, God full of mercy SMILED.
It was Kerismuddin's turn and before he could open his mouth, GOD CRIED!

For me the most illogical thing is HM saying that 'Besides PDRM, the delay in the various trials and judging process is also one of the factors for the escalation of the nation's crime rate.” How can the delay increase the crime rate? Does it mean the lock ups are full of criminals waiting their turn, so there are no more cells, and therefore the police cannot catch anymore otherwise they have no where to lock them up? I cannot believe we have such a @#$! in office.

Try visit the local police station and try to lodge a report. Then make your own conclusion

Ask this HH to disguise himself. Go around areas where there's very prone crime area. And of course go there without his body guards.

Another point ask him to go around without bodyguards in his everyday life. Walk the streets where the poor walk.

Do it for one month. If too long 1 week.

Then give us his report.

Jika pihak Polis perlukan lebih banyak wang utk mengurangkan kadar jenayah yg tinggi ni dgn mendirikan
balai bergerak/pondok panas atau kereta ronda baru. Mungkin nak 10 billion.

Kerajaan berikanlah saja dana tu SEGERA asalkan polis dapat mengurangkan kadar jenayah
terutamanya di bandar2 besar macam KL. Keselamatan Awam paling penting!!!

Why we have someone like him as our minister? What are the criteria our PM use in appointing Minister? Poor Malaysia, we cant even find ministers that qualify, intelligent and capable. Ministers pls dont be laughing stock!! We Malaysian feel MALU lah.......!

Bravo BangsaMalaysia !!
Well said ! And good riddance to HM & his uniformed crooks !

mykantree.....
"...He shouldn't waste our time and resources; he can conveniently leap out of his office window. That would be an honorable thing for him to do."

Hahaha, good one. I like that part about leap out the window. I can picture his face when jump.
Ask him to bring his keris along.
HAhahah

Yes, we MUST LOVE Police officials and PDRM more. What is LOVE to you? Be concerned about their well beings, be aware of their shortcomings, and be ready to raise their salaries so that if they could not do their jobs, there are many more will come and offer themselves to replace these police officials!

That is a simple logic on this.

If you need me to protect a property of more than a million, but you paid me a salaried man of less than RM 2000 per month, how could you expect me to be able to guard your home well?

Do you know how many police to safe guard us in PJ? 1 : 1000 ! In PJ, the value of house is RM 300 k to RM 500 k in general, and you times with 1000 x 300 k, that is RM 3 billions for a policeman to guard your assets!!

So, how much should you pay the safety and security officials like Police to guard your properties?

If you offer RM 6 k for a month, then the police MUST do a good job or else there will be 1000 other good candidates will come forward to guard your homes!

Just be FAIR to expect a good servant must have decent salary lor!!

So, nothing to do with good or bad police, it is a real lousy PAY for police to do a good job!!

I beleive NO Police will want to cheat and get any bribes if their salaries are more than RM 6k for this example!!

So, can understand ka??

Wake up lor our Malaysians!!

Be Fair, and be wise!!

" Maybe the level of graft is high because we don’t love our politicians enough? "

No. The last thing we have to spare for politicians is love. The title of this article inspires hate by the way, but well deserved hate though.

Somehow I do not share the same sentiment as those writers before me.You have to give credit to those policmen who work day and night to serve the people.Threr are still many honest and credible police in the force so you have to really restrict your criticisms.
