Power to the Rulers. Power to the Rakyat.

I received this message not long ago.

Rulers rejected extension of CJ. Power to the Rulers. Power to the Rakyat.

Next? Lawyers are ready to boycott the the judiciary by walking out of courts.

"I think, at its extraordinary general meeting on Nov 22, the Bar must be prepared to take the necessary resolutions to put a stop to this nonsense.

"I’m suggesting that there’s no other way to drive the point home that, until the judiciary is clean, we will not take part in a system that has become so tainted (because) we (would be tarred) by the same brush," laywer Haris Ibrahim said. [Malaysiakini]

Now I pass it over to you.

The momentum must be maintained and the pressure increased.
The power of the people is stronger than that of the government.

i wonder what the Bar will do if the UMNO fella is parachute in stealth style to become the next CJ. This must be history for someone to bypass all the senior levels in the judiciary to become the numero uno judge. And this guy is clearly of the inner circle in UMNO. I seriously dont know who is worst, the current CJ or this UMNO fella for the judiciary.
And I hope the King, with his keen and righteous mind, will make the right decision.

[...] Top contender. I’ve been told that Zaki Azmi, the Umno lawyer who was controversially made Federal Court early last month, is Choice No 1 for the Chief of Justice post.If that happens, the crisis faced by the Judiciary is expected to deepen. Zaki’s ascension to the Federal Court defied convention as no one had ever been promoted to the Federal Court without first serving the High Court and the Appeal Court [Umno lawyer promoted to Federal Court, Sept 5].Zaki’s name has cropped up after Ahmad Fairuz Sheikh Abdul Halim failed today to get his term as the CJ extended amid the VK Lingam tape scandal.

Way to go, Malaysian rulers. Somebody in Malaysia at least has the guts to act without fear of rocking the freaking boat.
