At the first instance, it is totally wrong for a special branch
officer to be campaigning for the government in power. He is a civil
servant and he has to be governed by the General Orders that the civil
service is to abide by.
This officer has the audacity to tell the people of Kuching that they
should vote for a party that provides security. I beg to differ, what
security? There was a murder that took place in Klang on the July 28
where passersby found a body of a Indian male hung on a bus stop. Now if
we have security that this special branch officer is talking about, the
police force that he represents should be doing their job in curbing
crime and catching criminals who seem to have no fear of committing
heinous crimes anymore because they too know that the police can be
bought.
Therefore if the BN government cannot even provide basic security, what security is this special branch officer talking about?
If it is security that he wishes to talk about, Teoh Beng Hock, Ahmad
Sabrani and A Kugan should have been alive today as all of them were
with the security agencies that takes its orders from the federal
government before they had died. These three victims died in the custody
of the security agencies who were tasked with investigation to find out
the truth and not to interrogate people who end up dead by suddenly
“jumping out of windows”.
To date, the Najib administration which had promised the Teoh family
that no stone would be left unturned has simply dragged its feet even
when the Royal Commission of Inquiry had recommended action to be taken
on three MACC officers.
The Teoh family seems to be the fiercest opposition to all the
promises that had been made by the federal administration because they
have been keeping the authorities on their toes whereas Ahmad Sabrani’s
family has as usual taken it as fate and have been duly silenced.
That is the difference when there is an injustice done to a Chinese
family who is politically aware compared to a Malay family who will
usually be silenced by other members of the community to simply take it
as fate.
So it becomes easier to pull wool over the eyes of the Malays than
the Chinese. When it came to A Kugan, it was brutal. The poor boy was
beaten up to pulp and left to rot and the police expected the people to
believe that he had died of some stomach ailment! The police made
blunders and it so happened that God too made the hospital authorities
who were trying to cover up for the police dumb by allowing the members
of the family of the poor Kugan into the mortuary where the dead body
was witnessed first hand by members of the family and the alternative
media.When that had taken place, there was nothing much that they could
hide from.
Therefore if the learned Special branch officer is talking about
security he should first get the act of his department right before he
opens his mouth to the whole world. This is 2012, Malaysians are known
to be submissive and dumb because the education system has made them
like that but they are not that dumb! They have now seen the other side
of the coin and know what kind of concocted stories the police are so
good at making when it comes to campaigning for their political masters.
On a daily basis in places like Klang, gangland style robberies, car
jacking, snacth theft, office break ins, house break ins and basic
roadside robberies are taking place right under the noses of the police
force and nothing is done.
Most of the time, what we see are some young female recruits who sit
under tents specially pitched for them and are busy texting on their
phones and sleeping instead of going on their rounds and keeping the
would be criminals at bay. Then in the evening their male counterparts
come and all of them then go on their motorcycle rounds like a pack of
wolves.
Most of the so called community policing where there are police beat
bases in housing estates are all vacant instead of being manned. So when
it comes to security, the residents are to fend for themselves by
securing the services of guards to patrol their housing estates to keep
criminals at bay.
Further the ex-policemen have made big bucks by forming security
guard companies and offering the services to residential estates. This
inevitably puts another tab on the pocket of the individual if he wants
his property to be guarded from would be thief. The police too have
learnt how to make policing a capitalistic venture and have becoming
very wealthy as a result of this arrangement.
The people know very well that the police are all to busy politicking
instead of policing. We will vote for change that will see the true
policemen rise and bring respect and dignity back to a police force
which the people can trust.
