I BRA HIM - TUTUP MULUT LAH...
8.Ibrahim bagaimanapun mengakui pada hari tersebut beliau berada di rumah (HA...HA...HA...Pengecut...Pengecut) dan berulang-kali menafikan ahli PERKASA adalah penakut dan mendakwa semua penyokongnya telah bersiap-sedia dan hanya menunggu arahannya (HA...HA...HA...Penipu...Penipu).
9.Malah, dakwanya mereka yang membuat tuduhan seumpama itu adalah golongan yang sakit, bodoh dan banggang yang cuba memprovokasikan dirinya. (Kesiannya - I BRA HIM - perkataan ' sakit. bodoh dan banggang' memang menerangkan mengenai diri I BRA HIM - Pandai klasifikasi diri sendiri)

JULY 23 — Good Morning! Chancellor, vice chancellor and graduating students.
It is so good to be back!
I am deeply moved by the conferment of this honour upon me. That it comes from my alma mater is especially significant for me. That it comes at this time is almost providential, for it allows me and all lawyers to reflect on our roles in the societies we live in.
For this honour and this moment of reflection, I extend my grateful thanks to the Council and Senate of the University of Exeter.Tired of injustice and oppression, people the world over are crying out for truth, goodness, justice and universal love and understanding.
The events in Malaysia over the past six weeks culminating in the rally for free and fair elections on the 9th of July, has taught me so much more than I could have ever learned in the last 30 years as a practising lawyer.
My team and I faced first-hand the full force of the unleashed power of the state, and I realised then the importance of the independence of the Institutions of government, particularly the judiciary, to check such abuses of power.I also realised how real and present the absence of the Rule of Law can be.
In countries where the Rule of Law reigns strong and true one probably does not even talk about it. But in countries that veer towards Rule by Law, talking about getting back to the basics is crucial.In many countries, Rule by Law is reflected in the existence of repressive laws that violate the fundamental rights of its citizens. One example of this is preventive detention laws that lock people away without affording them the basic right to a trial. There are many examples of such oppressive laws worldwide and they are not confined to underdeveloped or developing countries.
As lawyers, we are in a unique position. Our years of legal study and practice teach us to see and appreciate the fundamental role that the Rule of Law plays in guaranteeing that the state governs its citizens in a just and democratic manner.Who better to remind those in power of their responsibilities to their citizens than lawyers trained in understanding the difference between “Rule of Law” and “Rule by Law”?
Our role as lawyers must therefore extend far beyond traditional legal practice.
Here, I make no reference to rules, guidelines, documents, or declarations. My only reference point is our conscience. Can we as lawyers, ever sit back and watch the erosion of fundamental liberties of the people around us and do nothing? Clearly, silence in these circumstances, is not an option.
When I graduated from this university about 30 years ago, things were of course very different. Today the Internet and social media has empowered people with a continual flow of unfiltered and up-to-date information. No longer can the manipulation and control of information be effectively used by those in power to suppress either thought or action.
You are in a world where you know instantly of injustices taking place in any part of it. In this global village drawn together by so many factors, we are one. We can reach out to each other using these new means of communication and we owe it to each other to stand together for what is right.
You may say, “But I studied law to be a solicitor or barrister and to earn money for a decent standard of living”. There is nothing wrong with that, I assure you. I run a commercial litigation practice in a partnership of four where we also do public interest litigation. The two can co-exist quite comfortably.
The point I make is this.
You are graduating from one of the best universities in the country if not on the planet! You are special. And you are now a proud member of an army of people that is equipped with all that is necessary to both practise law and to fight injustice.I urge you to use this arsenal of knowledge and your passion for justice to fight for those who are downtrodden.
You have already heard of the events of July 9th in Malaysia. Whilst it brought out the worst in some, it brought out the best in others and this is where our hope lies.There were some in government who opposed the methods used to shut us down. Even doctors left their comfort zones to speak up against injustices. And of course there were the lawyers and the independent media who stood on the side of truth and justice.
However, the real heroes of that day are our friend and supporter Allahyarham Baharuddin Ahmad who paid the ultimate price in fighting a noble cause, the six members of the Socialist Party of Malaysia who, as we speak, sit in solitary confinement under preventive detention laws and finally the brave people of Malaysia who overcame their fear of intimidation and harassment to uphold their fundamental rights.
With all my heart I dedicate this honour you have bestowed upon me to them.
* This was the acceptance speech delivered by Datuk Dr Ambiga Sreenevasan upon her conferment with the Honorary Doctorate Of Laws, University of Exeter.

Downfall of BN-UMNO-NAJIB = Utusan Malaysia
KUALA LUMPUR, July 24 — Utusan Malaysia expressed sympathy for the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for bearing the brunt of the blame for Teoh Beng Hock’s death, saying today it was DAP and its adviser Lim Kit Siang who should be held responsible.
The Umno-owned daily’s editors, writing under the pseudonym Awang Selamat, accused the opposition party of tricking Malaysians into forgetting the corruption allegation against its leaders by drawing focus to Teoh’s death. “Malaysians have been dragged too deep into this issue (Teoh’s death) until we have strayed from the actual path. The real issue — corruption — has been buried.
“This is DAP’s success... all this time, their actual intention is to hide the many shortcomings of its leaders in this case,” Awang said in Mingguan Malaysia, the Malay daily’s Sunday paper. Awang added that if the just-released Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on Teoh’s death is studied carefully, it could be surmised that there were elements of cronyism, corruption and financial manipulation in the case.
As such, Awang said that DAP should be held responsible for Teoh’s death as through his death, the youth had helped the party save its image from being further tarnished. “Awang agrees with the view from several parties that DAP should be held responsible. Its key leader Lim Kit Siang should apologise to all Malaysians, the government, the MACC and Teoh’s family.
CYM - Our view:
Utusan : You would be the cause of the downfall and total destruction of BN - UMNO - NAJIB - Do not CHEAT RAKYAT.
It is a disgrace to the profession of journalism. You managed to hide the truth. You promote and uphold wrong and misleading facts.
Utusan Malaysia... nevertheless, the younger generation of Malaysia would like to say 'THANK U' and keep up the good work of cheating us. You are our pillar of determination. You unite us and make us strong day by day.

"Mereka (Pakatan) beri RM100 riuh sekampung. Kita sudah beri berbilion ringgit pada rakyat. Cuma pihak sebelah sana pukul gendang lebih kuat saja," katanya.
Berucap di hadapan lebih 1,000 orang di sebuah sekolah di Subang, Najib menegaskan semula pemberian subsidi kerajaan dalam pembelian barangan harian, antaranya petrol RON95 dan tepung.Sebelum itu, Najib tiba seawal jam 1.30 petang untuk solat Jumaat dan makan tengah hari bersama penduduk setempat.

Menurut Pengarah Suaram, Cynthia Gabriel, pegawai imigresen masuk ke dalam pesawat untuk menahan Bourdon (kiri) sebaik sahaja beliau mendarat di KLIA.
"Beliau kini dibawa ke pusat tahanan imigresen di KLIA," kata Gabriel.
Pada mulanya, pegawai imigresen tidak membenarkan isteri Bourdon, juga seorang peguam, mengikutnya ke pusat tersebut.
Selepas beberapa rundingan, beliau dibenarkan menemani suaminya.
Menurut Gabriel, pegawai imigresen "menyoal Bourdon".
Bourdon mendarat di Pulau Pinang semalam dan berucap mengenai 'Ops Scorpene' di Bayan Baru malam tadi.
Peguam Perancis yang berkhidmat dengan pertubuhan tanpa keuntungan - Sherpa - dan mengkhusus dalam membela hak asasi manusia dan jenayah menentang kemanusiaan.
Bourdon dijangka mendedahkan butiran kontroversial mengenai pembelian kapalselam negara dengan firma gergasi pertahanan Perancis DCNS.
Syarikat itu didakwa membayar komisyen “yang amat tinggi” kepada pegawai kerajaan Malaysia yang terbabit dalam perjanjian yang dimeterai pada 2002 itu.
Bayaran komisyen kepada pegawai kerajaan dianggap satu jenayah mengikut undang-undang Perancis.
Suaram berharap dapat mengumpulkan dana sebanyak RM100,000 daripada majlis berkenaan yang juga dijadualkan di Ipoh dan Kuala Lumpur hari ini dan esok, bagi membiayai kos perundangan dalam kes yang difailkan di Paris yang akan dibicarakan di mahkamah terbuka pada September ini.
Kes berkenaan difailkan tahun lalu oleh Suaram, melalui Bourdon dan pasukannya mengenai dakwaan DCNS membayar RM540 juta sebagai komisyen kepada Perimekar.
Perimekar adalah subsidari KS Ombak Laut Sdn Bhd, yang mana pemegang saham utamnya adalah isteri Abdul Razak Baginda (kanan).
Abdul Razak pula adalah rakan rapat Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak yang didakwa terbabit dalam pembunuhan penterjemah warga Mongolia Altantuya Shariibuu tetapi kemudiannya dibebaskan.

Michael Jackson, King of Pop
Michael Jackson, the King Of Pop, died Thursday. He was only 50 years old. He collapsed at his residence in the Holmby Hills section of Los Angeles (California - USA), about noon Pacific time, suffering cardiac arrest. After an emergency call was made at 12:21 pm paramedics took Michael from his west Los Angeles home to UCLA Medical Center. He was unresponsive when he arrived at the hospital. A team of physicians attempted to resuscitate him for more than an hour. Michael was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. PT.
Michael Jackson, one of the most widely beloved entertainers and profoundly influential artists of all-time, leaves an indelible imprint on popular music and culture. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever.
Of course, there will be no comeback now, no Jackson 5 reunion, no new music to share with millions of fans. But the legacy he leaves behind is so rich, so deep, that no scandal can torpedo it. The "Thriller" may be gone, but the thrill will always remain.
We offer our sincere condolences to his children, family members, to his friends and fans all over the world. May the one and only undisputed KING of POP, rest in peace.
