    Kanak-Kanak 6 Tahun Maut Gara-Gara Cuai, Terkandas Dalam Van Selama 3 Jam

    Tertidur dalam kenderaan mungkin perkara yang sering berlaku di kalangan para penumpang. Namun, insiden yang menimpa kanak-kanak enam tahun ini ternyata amat memilukan dan berlaku tanpa dijangka.

    Seorang kanak-kanak lelaki didapati maut selepas dipercayai tertidur sekitar tiga jam dalam sebuah van dalam insiden di Bandar Country Homes pada Jumaat (21 Apr).

    Menurut petikan laporan Sinar Harian pada Ahad, dalam kejadian sekitar jam 3.00 petang itu, Muhammad Iqram Danish Abdullah yang berusia enam tahun, dikatakan menaiki van berkenaan dalam perjalanan ke Kelas Agama dan Fardu Ain (Kafa) bersama beberapa kanak-kanak lain.

    Timbalan Ketua Polis Daerah Gombak Superintendan Mohd Marzuki Mohd Mokhtar turut berkata, pemandu van berkenaan dikatakan tidak menyedari mangsa berada di dalam van tersebut.

    Menurutnya, mangsa dikatakan sedang tidur ketika itu sementara kanak-kanak lain turun ke kelas Kafa tersebut.

    “Bagaimanapun, kira-kira pukul 5.00 petang ketika mahu menjemput semula kanak-kanak itu, baru pemandu berusia 21 tahun itu menyedari mangsa masih berada di dalam van.

    “Mangsa ditemui dalam keadaan tidak sedarkan diri,” katanya, seperti ditukil Sinar Harian.

    Beliau berkata, mangsa kemudian dikejarkan ke Hospital Sungai Buloh oleh pemandu van berkenaan sebelum disahkan meninggal dunia, dipercayai akibat diserang strok haba atau kepanasan.

    Menurut laporan Sinar Harian, pemandu van itu kini ditahan reman selama tujuh hari kerana disyaki cuai.

  • Malaysia Youth & Sports Minister: Bumiputra University Quotas Insult Malays

    Malaysia Youth & Sports Minister: Bumiputra University Quotas Insult Malays

    KUALA LUMPUR: Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said Malays should view the quota system for entry into local universities as “insulting”.

    “These quotas and all that, some of it is in Article 153 in the constitution. I have been telling my Malay community, I said, ‘You know, one day, you should actually aspire, even before 2050, aspire to be in the university without quota’,” the Umno Youth leader told a dialogue on the National Transformation Plan 2050 with Indian youths at the Putra World Trade Center here today.

    “We should start seeing this quota (system) as something that is a bit insulting, that we need quota to get somewhere.”

    His comments came after a participant said he hoped that the quota system for Bumiputeras in the country would one day be removed.

    “Just as there is a perception of discrimination amongst other communities, we also feel that maybe we are not that good, because other communities are saying that, ‘Hey you are here only because of the quota’.

    “I want the Malay community to complete on a level playing field. That’s my aspiration,” said Khairy.

    The dialogue session was organised by MIC Youth as well as several Indian youth NGOs.

  • Sultanah Johor: Show Equal Respect To Non-Muslim

    Sultanah Johor: Show Equal Respect To Non-Muslim

    PETALING JAYA: Muslims must show the same respect to their fellow Malaysians of other faiths, as given to them, says Permaisuri of Johor Raja Zarith Sofia Almarhum Sultan Idris Shah.

    In a Facebook posting, she said Muslims in Malaysia are very lucky because they do not know what it is like to be part of a minority group.

    “Those of us who have studied or lived abroad know what it feels like to be a minority, and we learn to adapt. At the same time, we see the kindness and the acceptance of those who are Christians, Jews, or of other faiths, when we are in their countries.

    “I remember seeing photos of Zaharah Othman, the NST London correspondent, at a church, wearing her hijab. And she’s also told me how she was offered to perform her prayers in churches,” she said.

    She also shared how her eldest son Tunku Mahkota Tunku Ismail, when he was leaving India after ending his service with the Indian army, was taken to the army mosque by his fellow officers.

    “They were Hindus but they covered their heads with their handkerchiefs, and took their shoes off.

    “We Muslims must show the same respect to our fellow Malaysians,” she said.

  • Ex-Army Investigator Pursued Deserter, Found Hantu Instead

    Ex-Army Investigator Pursued Deserter, Found Hantu Instead

    By: Quora user Tan Peng An (a former Army Investigator, Special Investigation Branch at Singapore Armed Forces)

    During my army days, we had the occasional duty whereby we had to go and try to arrest deserters. Fast forward to this incident:

    One Friday night, all of us were recalled (we used pagers then and usually cursed when they sounded) back to our unit for an operation. When we arrived, we were told that we would be doing a midnight surprise arrest of a particular deserter. Now this guy was the “Houdini” of deserters and had evaded many arrests in as many years and we had a tip off he would be at a certain location.

    Dragon lights, batons, PC shields, P226 pistols were drawn (My tip if in the SAF: don’t carry the firearm if possible) & issued and everyone loaded up onto the 3 tonners. It was a joint operation and we had the canine unit come along too.

    The trucks drove a short way (I am censoring the location) and we debussed and surrounded a particular dilapidated spooky old villa at about midnight. There were no street lamps in the area and it was as dark as a monkey’s behind…

    A couple of unlucky dudes were asked to go in the front door (me included since I had that big ass dragon light)…now the dragon light is one mother of a flashlight, heavy too.

    Upon entering the house, we found it empty so we got the canine unit to bring the dogs in to check it out. Strangely enough, the dogs were very reluctant to go in and once inside, did not want to do their usual sniffing and searching. So we decided to do a perimeter search instead and luckily, the dogs (now outside, were back to usual) found a scent leading to the property at the back.

    All jumped into the 3 tonners and we made our way to the property at the back to resume the search at about 2 am. This property at the back looked even spookier than the building we just went to and everyone kinda got the evil vibe. Me and 3 other guys were standing in front of the building just looking at it when (not sure if it was fatigue or the late hour playing tricks) I saw a white shadow sliding to one window on the top left floor, then slowly sliding out of view. I turned to the other guys and asked them if they saw it… four of us looked at each other and just agreed to “Get the Fuck outta there” and so we legged it back to base…. The Op report said – search done, deserter not found…

    I was soon discharged from the army but heard from friends back at the unit that “Houdini” was found a couple of weeks later mad as a hatter….

    What happened to the actual properties? I went back a few years ago to try and find the buildings but I think they have all been torn down, and the area is now a famous hippie location with pubs and bars…. make a guess…

  • Primary, Secondary Schools And Neighbourhood Colleges Affected By Mergers In 2019

    Primary, Secondary Schools And Neighbourhood Colleges Affected By Mergers In 2019

    Fourteen primary schools and six secondary schools will merge in 2019, due to smaller cohort sizes and changing demographics across housing estates, the Ministry of Education (MOE) announced on Thursday (Apr 20).

    The changing demographics have resulted in an uneven distribution of students across primary and secondary schools, the ministry said at a briefing.

    Demand for Primary 1 places in mature estates has fallen, resulting in surplus places and low enrolment in some schools. But at younger estates, new schools may need to be built to accommodate a higher demand for school places there, MOE said.

    The primary schools being merged are:

    –  East View and Junyuan Primary, to be located on the site of Junyuan Primary.

    –  Balestier Hill and Bendemeer Primary, to be located on the site of Bendemeer Primary.

    –  Da Qiao and Jing Shan Primary, to be located on the site of Jing Shan Primary.

    –  Damai and East Coast Primary, to be located on the site of Damai Primary.

    –  Coral and White Sands Primary, to be located on the site of White Sands Primary.

    –  Casuarina and Loyang Primary, to be located on the site of Casuarina Primary.

    –  Cedar and MacPherson Primary, to be located on the site of Cedar Primary.

    A new primary school in Sengkang, Fern Green Primary, will begin operations in 2018. MOE said this is to meet the high demand for school places in the estate.

    The secondary schools to be merged are:

    –  Yuhua and Shuqun Secondary, to be located on the site of Yuhua Secondary.

    –  East Spring and East View Secondary, to be located on the site of East Spring Secondary.

    –  Hong Kah and Jurongville Secondary, to be located on the site of Jurongville Secondary.

    For the first time, eight junior colleges will also be merged, making this is the largest school merging exercise in the past decade.

    The eight government junior colleges that will be merged in 2019 were selected because of the need to ensure a good spread of JCs across the island, said the Ministry of Education (MOE) at a press briefing on Thursday (Apr 20).

    This is partly why even schools with high entry requirements such as Anderson Junior College (AJC) – which had an entry score of eight and nine points for the science and arts courses respectively in 2016, lower than schools such as Catholic Junior College (CJC) – will have to be merged.

    AJC will take in Serangoon JC, which has also steadily climbed up the ranks since it opened in 1988. In 2016, it had an entry score of 11 points for both science and arts courses, compared to 20 when it started out. The new school will be located at AJC’s Yio Chu Kang site to serve the north-east area.

    In 2019, Jurong and Pioneer JCs will also be merged to form a JC in the west; Innova and Yishun JCs in the north; and Tampines and Meridian JCs in the east. These schools will be located at the latter-named sites. These sites were chosen based on the quality of infrastructure, and their accessibility to transport, said the MOE.
