Introduction Recently IGP Tan Sri Mohamed Fuzi Harun stated that seven terrorists were arrested in Sabah and all of them are members of the Abu Sayyaf group (ASG) which vigorously involved in kidnapping for ransom. One of the terrorists is known to have decapitation the hostages. In addition, Sabah CPO Datuk Omar Mammah also pointed out that the members of ASG trying to hide in Sabah and in meantime other terrorist groups also pose security threat by using Sabah as a hiding place. The statements made by both the IGP and CPO indicated that terrorist groups like ASG, Al Qaeda, Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) and ISIS already have support base in this country. Additionally, a research firm has identified that an emergent number of Malaysians are supporting and be tolerance for terrorist activities in the name of religion. How these terrorist groups are able to penetrate and influence the locals in this country? Do the supporters and sympathisers of these groups are willing to risk t...

Last month, the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) arrested five suspected terrorists, among them three foreigners including a former member of the Al Qaeda. They also arrested a woman and a man from Sabah who were involved in terrorist financing. Meanwhile, two months ago, the PDRM detained eight suspected terrorists in Perlis comprising seven foreigners and a Malaysian. Their aim was to establish a learning centre promoting Salafi Jihadism in Southeast Asia. Last July, the PDRM also arrested another seven suspected terrorists including three Indonesians and a woman who were sending money regularly to Abu Gomez, a Malaysian terrorist in Syria. According to PDRM, since February 2013 more than 400 suspected terrorists have been arrested including more than 40 women. Recently, the inspector-general of police Mohamad Fuzi Harun stated that a total of 45 foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) have been detained since early this year and most of them are ISIS-linked terrorists.

Introduction The calls to abolish the security laws like the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma), the Prevention of Crime Act (Poca) and Prevention of Terrorism Act (Pota) by the NGOs and human right organizations in Malaysia become a matter of concern for the current Pakatan Harapan government. Under the Part 2 of the Federal Constitution, the Malaysians do enjoy the fundamental liberties like liberty of the person, protection against retrospective criminal laws and repeated trials, equality and freedom of speech, assembly and association. The question is whether these liberties can be used to undermine the peace and security of this nation or not? I am strong believer of the rule of law. The law must protect the people. According to the World Justice Project's definition of the rule of law is encompassed with accountability, just laws, open government and accessible and impartial dispute resolution. But for the hate preachers, terrorists and sy...

Dear Government of Malaysia, Thank you so much Bapa Tun for your endless effort to restore our dignity. The day is finally arrived in Malaysia. The new horizon already on rise. The darkest cloud(s) which makes many Malaysians put in rest at last. The nation is awakening now. We have high hope on you to reform and transform this nation for our future generation. Even though, we won the battle but there is no time for us to seek for revenge as you said. The biggest punishments for these 'traitors' who swindled and 'raped' this nation without mercy should be left alone. These people need to be isolated from our society and make them to realise what kind of the damages that they had done to this nation. Let's we leave them alone. But, if these people had done something which is detrimental i.e. damaging the good reputation of our beloved nation then they should be punished according to the law of this country. We have t...

Today, Malaysians are voting to elect a new government. The outcome of this election will determine the future of Malaysia. Malaysians are already decided. They are ready for the CHANGE. But, the caretaker government is still in power and if the outcome of the election is not in favour of them, then, anything is possible. This government has all the power and means to turn things around to be in power forever. Unfortunately, this government is failed to understand the law of nature. And, nothing is impossible. Malaysians are peace loving people and they have high tolerance level. Today, they already made their mind to change this government for the betterment of this nation. We, as Malaysians, need not to be worried about the security issues. The PDRM and Malaysian Arm Forces will take measures to safeguard the security of this beloved nation. Therefore, I am urging my fellow Malaysians to cast their vote for the CHANGE without fear. Tomorrow will be the a ne...

In less than 24 hours we going to elect a new government to rule us in next five years. This election is regarded as a titan of all election. The race is too close between ruling parties and opposition parties.  This is a do or die situation. This election is very different from the last two elections. The sentiments among people to change for new government is very observable and since last Friday many KL folks had returned to their hometown to cast their vote. The significant different of this election is not about the personality of the candidates but rather resolving the basic problems which crippled the ordinary people. The keys issues for this election are the rising of the cost of living and drop in the quality of life. These two issues will determine the outcome of this election. While I was driving from my office yesterday, I tuned to a Tamil radio channel and happened to listen to some Indians leaders from MIC on election issues. I was utterly...

In less than nine days, Malaysia is going to have the titan of all elections. The nomination day was concluded last Saturday. As usual, there are some candidates who are not satisfied with process. The possible solution for them by taking the said matters to the courts in Malaysia. Last Thursday, the body of Palestinian lecturer, Fadi al-Batsh was buried in Gaza. He was brutally killed in Kuala Lumpur by two foreign assassins. According to the Home Minister, the killers representing or attached with the foreign intelligence agency. On the other hand, two women from Vietnam and Indonesia had been used by the North Korean agents to kill Kim Jong-Nam in Kuala Lumpur airport last year. These women used the highly toxic VX nerve agent to execute the murder. In 2016, the Movida Bar in Puchong was attacked by ISIS terrorists where eight people were injured. That’s was the first attack launched by the ISIS/ISIL/IS in Malaysia. Even though, PDRM has successfully detained and prosecuted th...

Yesterday, MIC President had claimed that the Indian community is increase their support to them at more than 65%. Perhaps, the statement is partially true because the see PM Najib as their leader than the MIC leaders.  Generally, Indian voters are located in the marginal seats. Sentosa in Selangor can be considered as the indian majority seat. But whether indian votes will relevant to this coming election. I very much in doubt. The battle is between them to secure Malay votes. Indian voters will be sidelined significantly compare to last two general elections where they played pivotal role to determine the winners. How about MIC leaders? Can they survive this election? In my humble opinion, only Dr Subramaniam will survive if the opposition going to field an Indian candidate in Segamat. Others, unfortunately, their destiny is already has been pre-determined. Let's we wait and see.

The GE14 will be conducted very soon in Malaysia.  This election is very different from other elections which was held in Malaysia previously. This election is no longer a battle between Malays and non-Malays but instead between Malays themselves. They are at the crossroads to decide to whom their support is. The margin of advantage between the ruling party and opposition party is very thin. There are many Malays who disassociate themselves with both party. They are undecided. They are confused. Firstly, they don't understand why a leader they had revered the most has joined and collaborating with opposition. Secondly, why there are many parties claiming they are representing Malays and why are so many now? Thirdly, where they are belong too i.e. to which party they are associate with. Lastly, who will preserve and protect their rights and priviliges better. In this election, the deciding factor for the outcome of this election is with Malays. Therefore ...
