He thinks he’s so smart.
Before that, he used to act like a smart ars, hence raised further doubts whether the doctrine "separation of powers" still work in Malaysia.
Then, he spoke like a smart ars, denying there is a crisis in our country’s judiciary system.
Not feeling repent, now he speaks like a smart ars which makes him really look like an absolute idiot, when he was quoted as saying that the source (for the "VK Lingam tape") witness will not only be protected by the government under the so-called "Witness Protection Act" but will also be given a new identity and a new face through cosmetic surgery.
"The protection is stated under the Witness Protection Act." [...]
"We have an Act to protect witnesses. If we do not have trust in the government to protect the witness whom can we trust. Surely not Anwar"
Immediately, the promise that came out from the horse mouth was quickly snubbed by PKR president Wan Azizah Wan Ismail when she said there is no evidence of such a crucial bill being tabled in Parliament in the last sitting as reported by Malaysiakini.
"My office had confirmed this fact with the Legal Division of the Parliament, that no such bill had been tabled for a first reading in the Lower House," she said.
Now, apparently with all humble pies on the so-called de-facto law minister, let’s not deviate from the pressing issue at large which needs our immediate attention.
Lets remain focus on pushing for the establishment of a royal commission to probe into the rotting judiciary system further exposed by the VK Lingam video which was essentially denied by the said minister above, together with seeking urgent clarification from the Government on some critical questions which remained unanswered as mentioned earlier.
- How do we expect an independent panel to conduct a thorough investigation when it has no legal power, no power to call witness, no power to administer oaths and no immunity under the lawyer as confessed by one of the panel member Mahadev Shankar?
- Why the establishment of an independent panel with so many hoo-ha if the primary and the only objective is merely to investigate the authenticity of the "Lingam video"?
- As the panel is powerless to call for witness, they can only pray hard for witnesses to come forward and testify. The question is, why should the people come forward when the independent panel can’t protect them from prosecution?
- Why the knee-jerk reaction from the Anti Corruption Agency (ACA) where instead of picking up the senior lawyer VK Lingam for further questioning, they’re quizzing messengers like PKR vice-president R Sivarasa and Anwar’s aide Sim Tze Tzin as reported by Malaysiakini? Click here to read blogger Elizabeth Wong’s take on this, in which she calls it "the game of catch the whistleblower".
- What’s the transparency level for the independent panel to carry out their duties when investigations would be conducted on close door basic and the outcome will be submitted only to the Government?
What’s the big deal with authentication?
Instead of setting up the three-man independent panel, PRK vice-president R Sivarasa helped to highlight the question #2 raised above by questioning the need of the panel instead of getting forensic expert to determine the video’s authenticity.
“It is no rocket science to figure this out. Give an appropriate copy of the video clip to a relevant expert in this field and the person will be able to confirm whether the video clip is an authentic recording or not in a matter of a few hours," he said.
How insulting the statement "to confirm whether the video clip is an authentic recording or not in a matter of a few hours" can be in undermining the Government’s reputation, which in another way round, that actually shows the knee jerk reaction and stop-gap act taken by the Government merely to pacify the crowd but not sincere in applying a permanent fix into the judiciary system.

Haha.. yday when I first saw this on the news I knew you’d surely blog about it. Useless one lar… that piece of shit…
Malaysia is going down…
the loud mout had a slip of the tongue and reveal the true intention of the panel which is set-up as a trap to go after the source of the tape. hey, the loud-mouth said that unless the source comes to the open, the tape authenticity will not be verifiable. geezz, do you really need the source to authenticate the tape?
you see, he thinks we are all stupid and cannot think. anyway, let him continue to be that presumptious and in time he will have enough rope to hang himself.
