There are some recent news that caught my attention. There are serious ones like in the case of Tee Hui Yi, who have just undergone two heart transplants. It highlighted the inadequate numbers of organ donors in Malaysia. I don’t want to go into that since I am not registered as an organ donor myself.

On the other hand, there are “funny” ones like the one where two Styrofoam keris were held up in the air by Heah Tick Lai during Gerakan Youth’s annual meeting. As reported by Malaysiakini:

“I wave this pair of keris here not to fight or challenge anyone… I hope next time Hishammuddin will hold and shout ‘unity for all Malaysians’,” he said.

Well, as long as no keris is used to “bathe in any liquid”, I have no problem with it.

Then there is the article on how whistleblowers are protected by law and that they should step forward to assist in investigation without any worries. It also stated that the Anti Corruption Act guarantees that their identity will not be revealed. If the Lingam tape recording is genuine, I salute the person who recorded and/or exposed the tape. It either takes real courage or stupidity to do that.

Quoting TheStar:

He (Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim) told a press conference after being interviewed by the ACA that the whistleblowers feared for their lives as those implicated in the video include a powerful judge, top corporate figure and an influential politician.

Anwar said while ACA had said it was willing to protect the identity of the source, but it could not guarantee the personal safety of these whistleblowers because that is not within its ambit of power.

This reminds me of those police and gangster movies. When someone knows too much or have betrayed their boss, they are put to sleep. However, those scenes will only happen in movies, right? It does not happen in real life, right?
