Hi Mary Kate. Haiyah, if the politicans want to play games with money I am not going to waste my time with them! I am getting this feeling that politics has become an SMS reality show now. Can we take any of those seriously? Pure entertainment! Ever watched some of the more ingenious “witty” speakers? On second thoughts don’t torture yourself. Entertaining like the media too you think?

Tembam, I read in Rocky’s blog that Bernama reported that UMNO’s giving out money for those who register as voters. Am I reading this correctly, I read and reread the article, wondering if my eyes were playing tricks or my English had deteriorated, trying to make up what’s the actual message. How come it keeps coming back to me as “buying votes”, is it just me, my eyes, brain or what? Or there’s another meaning to it as I could not really understand this. In many countries, people fight and even die for their voting rights. How come we need to lure voters with money? BTW, how do I put a link into the blog, I only know how to copy and paste, sorry la, not so IT and blog savvy.

It just gets worse. You think they would debate the state of our nation’s children in UMNO? I wonder how low in the ranks of national priorities the fate of our children lie? Baffled is putting it too mildly when insanity prevails.

Utter madness.

Nurin’s killer/s still out there.
Police said Kha Man drowned. She was not sexually assaulted.

Still…so tragic because the man with whom she and her friend were with, did not report the incident.
Anyway, I dont really know what to make out of the story.

Preeshena’s death. How sad. She was at home. Gated community. She was lured out…

SO so sad all this is happening.

Mary Kate and Mat Salo, something is really wrong with this nation. I frankly am against all the horrible details of the crime being splashed across the pages of the newspapers and on air. There has to be a limit. I read a very interesting post on the blog of British expat “KlingKlangman” who said “I am no psychologist, and I grew up in the UK where we are fairly well protected from gory images (The BBC rarely shows anything remotely unpleasant and the papers never do), but I really can’t understand the purpose of displaying gory images… ”

It’s all these issues and more that needs to be addressed. Maybe our media has to go read their Code of Ethics again. Copycat criminals are a definite possibility until the fear of God or the long arm of the law can make them stop.

Mary Kate, the love for children makes even President Bush sound like a man with a heart. What are we doing about our nations children? They are our future.

My God! What’s is happening here? After Nurin, a spate of copy-cat MO’s? Or is/are the perp(s) the same psychopath(s)? Or is it because they have become emboldened since PRM has yet to apprehend them?

PDRM must put this on the NUMBER ONE priority list!

Good Morning Tembam,
I am so sad 2 more children dead and my heart bleeds for both children and parents. I used to leave my 3 kids at home when I go to work at my nearby office, I dont think I can do that now. It’s not safe everywhere, not even our own home. Seems like we have to guard our children 24/7. I agree with you that this could be a copy cat murderer. When the Police fail to find Nurin, and failed to capture her murderer/s, they failed BIG TIME. All the wrong messages sent out to would be paedophiles and killers, that they can do anything they want and GET AWAY WITH IT. Its proven with Nurin’s case-murder unsolved!

From the website http://www.projectsafechildhood.gov, President George W.Bush make a strong statement as follows:

“Our nation has made this commitment: Anyone who targets a child for harm will be a primary target of law enforcement. That’s our commitment. Anyone who takes the life or innocence of a child will be punished to the full extent of the law.” President George W. Bush, October 23, 2002

“We cannot, and we will not, tolerate those who seek to abuse or exploit our children.” Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, April 20, 2006

Malaysia has evolved tremendously in the past 50 years and I share the same sentiments with you as to our previous and current leaders. Before we can move on to a be a greater country in 2020, let’s start with the basic first, SAFETY FOR OUR CHILDREN, SAFETY FOR US. It is shameful and appalling to read ACA investigation on our top gun for 27millions, shameful to us Malaysian and to the world. What is happening, the Government and Police who are responsible to protect its people are more interested in their personal gains and vested interests, is this why crime rates is at the highest? Killers roams freely in our society, parents living in fear and locking up their children.

Nurin, Kha Man and Presshena was unnecessary death, irrespective of parents fault or not. It seems now their deaths have come full circle, its no longer just one Nurin, but the 3 children respresenting our 3 major races. This shows that the killers are bolder and more daring, they seemed to be very confident that they will not be caught, and extremely SAD to say, this may well be the case.

If only we have this commitment from our PM as what Bush did, NurinAlert will be up and running immediately, rather than going the usual, slower pace.

How many more deaths before we get the killers, how many more deaths before our Government and Police realised that its people are suffering. So sad

I SUPPORT NURIN ALERT
