Petrol Ron95 tak rosakkan enjin

http://www.hmetro.com.my/Current_News/myMe...4160513/Article

KUALA LUMPUR: Tanggapan pengguna terhadap penggunaan minyak petrol RON95 yang merosakkan enjin adalah tidak tepat, persidangan Dewan Rakyat diberitahu hari ini.

Timbalan Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan Datuk Tan Lian Hoe berkata sekiranya enjin kenderaan cukup sekadar dengan pembakaran RON95, penggunaan RON yang lebih tinggi tidak akan memberi kesan kepada keupayaan enjin secara optimum.

"Negara-negara pengeluar kenderaan utama dunia seperti Jepun, Eropah dan Amerika Syarikat juga menggunakan petrol RON95. Di Eropah, penggunaan RON95 adalah lebih 84 peratus daripada keseluruhan penggunaan petrol yang merupakan bahan bakar utama kenderaan," katanya di sini.

Beliau berkata demikian ketika menjawab soalan asal Datuk Johari Abdul (PKR-Sungai Petani) yang ingin tahu sama ada minyak petrol yang dijual di stesen minyak Petronas iaitu Primax 95 tidak sesuai digunakan untuk kereta import dan kereta mewah kerana minyak itu boleh merosakkan enjin.

Tan berkata sebelum keputusan untuk memperkenalkan RON95 dilaksanakan, beberapa siri perbincangan dengan pelbagai pihak yang terbabit sudah diadakan untuk mendapatkan maklum balas daripada setiap aspek penggunaan petrol RON95. - Bernama

Study to find if it's wrong to don thongs

Australian researchers have set out to find whether wearing thongs could be harmful for our feet. Picture: File
THEY are as common as a backyard barbecue in summer but the Australian love affair with the humble thong could be harmful.

In a world first study, a team of Sydney researchers will investigate just how much stress we are putting on our feet by wearing thongs.

The research team will employ multi-million-dollar technology used to make Hollywood blockbusters such as Lord Of The Rings to track exactly how people walk in a variety of footwear.

Children, who will be used in the study, will have 43 sensors positioned on their body and will walk in front of a series of cameras which measure the movement and angles of their feet within 0.5mm.

Podiatrist and researcher Angus Chard said children were being used as it was easier to study the development of the arch in their foot, which occurs in the first six to eight years.

"We want to find what the best footwear is for our children," Mr Chard said.

"The argument is that bare feet is the superior model for footwear, especially for children."

It is estimated that up to 80 per cent of Australians wear thongs.

The children in the study will be tested while barefoot, in traditional school shoes and in thongs to see which form of shoe has the best impact on the foot's development.

Mr Chard, who is based at the University of Sydney's biomechanical and footwear research group, said it was difficult to know whether thongs were beneficial.

"Children with flat feet seem to fatigue quickly," Mr Chard said.

"As a podiatrist I see kids quite often with aches and pains.

"It's argued that you have to compensate to wear thongs, that people change the way they walk.

"Some people will claw their feet to keep the thong on while others will extend their toes.

"We simply don't know."

Epidemiology studies in India and Africa have found that barefoot children are less likely to get flat feet or deformities.

However, Mr Chard said: "It's not like we can advise people to start walking around barefoot. We have been wearing shoes for a very long time because it offers protection."

Mr Chard will spend the next six years studying children's footwear.

The initial study is for six months and children must be aged between eight and 13 years with no feet problems in the past six months.

Explosive stuff smuggled

Indonesia seizes 75 tons of explosive material smuggled from Malaysia
NEWS/COMMENTARIES

http://www.malaysia-today.net/index.php?op...s&Itemid=100131

(The Jakarta Post) - Customs officials in Riau Islands have foiled an attempt to smuggle 75 tons of pure ammonium nitrate, which could be used for improvised explosive devices, on a ship from Malaysia bound for Selayar Island in South Sulawesi.

Riau Islands Customs and Excise Office head Nasar Salim said Friday that the wooden ship was intercepted by a customs patrol team off the coast of Mapor Island near Bintan on Wednesday.

The crew had intentionally taken a route to avoid patrol boats belonging to Indonesian or Singaporean authorities, he said.

"They had deliberately used a shipping lane with high waves to avoid security patrol boats, but we managed to intercept them near Bintan Island," Nasar told a press conference in Tanjung Balai Karimun.

The chemical material was shipped on board the Indonesian-flagged KM Fungka Sejahtera without required importation documents, he said.

After leaving Pasir Gadang in Malaysia, the wooden boat sailed headed to the South China Sea, Nasar said.

When approaching Natuna Island, the vessel turned toward Java Island, before it was later captured.

The local customs office were questioning the 16 crew members of the wooden boat which was being tightly guarded at the Tanjdung Balai Karimun port.

The office also barred passing ships and people from approaching the boat, to prevent any possible explosions from the chemical material.

Nasar said ammonium nitrate, which can also be used as fertilizer, was classified as an explosive and any imports of the substance must be approved by the Defense Ministry and the National Police.

The explosives were packed in 3,000 25-kilogram sacks, each containing a 34.5 percent concentration of ammonium nitrate.

A further investigation by the customs office, however, found the chemical material contained pure concentrations of the explosive.

"This *concealing of explosives* has lead to suspicion that the chemicals were intended for violent or other dangerous purposes - but it will be up to the police to investigate this further," Nasar said.

"Around 95 percent of the ammonium nitrate imported into Indonesia is used for basic explosive devices," he said.

Explosives smuggling is a punishable crime and carries a jail sentence of up to 10 years.

According to the captain of KM Fungka Sejahtera, identified only initials as HN, the ammonium nitrate was intended for agricultural purposes on Selayar Island, Nasar said.

However, the crew refused to reveal the identity of the "explosive" importers.

Separately, Riau Islands Police deputy chief of detectives Adj. Comr. Wiyarso said his office would investigate whether the case was linked to any terrorist networks in Indonesia.

"We will look into the importer and recipient of the ammonium nitrate.

"However, I can not say whether there is any terrorist link in the case. We will leave this matter to the National Police antiterror unit for further investigation," Wiyarso said.

A huge nest of hornets responsible for a wave of terror and one death was assaulted by army units in a bid to annihilate it.

The gigantic hornet nest, 1.6m wide and situated out of reach up a tree, had recently been responsible for numerous hornet attacks, including one fatality, and was forcing many villagers to take lengthy detours if they wished to avoid being stung.

With the local fire brigade unable to fell the tree due to the nearby buildings, an urgent call for assistance was made, and it was answered by a nearby PLA reconnaissance battalion, who dispatched a squad armed with flamethrowers to the scene, complete with chemical warfare suits and anti-bee nets.

Two bursts from their flamethrowers reduced the nest to flaming mass of scorched insects.

Bapa korban jambatan runtuh tuntut RM105 juta
Nov 20, 09 6:37pm

http://malaysiakini.com/news/117958

Tiga bapa kepada tiga peserta Kem 1Malaysia yang terkorban dalam tragedi jambatan gantung runtuh di pusat kokurikulum pejabat pelajaran daerah Kinta Selatan di Kampar pada 26 Oktober lalu, memfailkan saman menuntut gantirugi berjumlah RM105 juta.

K Mageswaran, K Vasudevan dan T Nathan memfailkan saman itu di Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh hari ini menuntut gantirugi itu dari 10 defenden. Insiden itu berlaku di pusat tersebut yang terletak berhampiran Sekolah Kebangsaan Kuala Dipang.

Dalam saman itu, mereka menamakan sebagai defendan, guru besar Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Tamil (SJKT) Mambang Diawan, gurubesar SJKT Gopeng; Ketua Pegawai Pejabat Pelajaran Daerah Kinta Selatan; Pengarah Pelajaran Negeri Perak; Yang Dipertua Majlis Daerah Kampar; Pengarah Jabatan Kerja Raya Negeri Perak dan Komanden Kem 1Malaysia Kuala Dipang.

Pihak yang lain yang disaman ialah penderma jambatan gantung itu iaitu syarikat GS Synergy Sdn Bhd, syarikat kontraktor CWL Enterprise, menteri pelajaran dan kerajaan Malaysia.

Writ saman itu difailkan melalui Tetuan A.Sivanesan & Co pada pagi tadi di pejabat Pendaftar Mahkamah Tinggi di Ipoh.

Selain menuntut gantirugi am sebanyak RM35 juta setiap seorang, mereka masing-masing menuntut RM19,120 bagi gantirugi khas, RM100,000 bagi gantirugi teladan, faedah 8 peratus bagi jumlah penghakiman dari tarikh kematian hingga tarikh penyelesaian sepenuhnya, kos guaman dan apa-apa relif yang difikirkan sesuai oleh mahkamah.

Plaintif mendakwa, pada masa kejadian, kawasan itu dipercayai gelap gelita, tidak ada lampu besar yang dipasang untuk keselamatan murid-murid, dan ini menunjukkan kecuaian kerana dengan adanya lampu besar, kanak-kanak yang jatuh ke dalam sungai boleh dilihat dengan jelas serta mempunyai peluang yang lebih baik untuk menyelamatkan diri atau diselamatkan.

Mereka juga mendakwa tidak ada seliaan atau kawalan yang baik di jambatan oleh pihak penganjur yang mana sepatutnya penggunaan jambatan perlu diawasi, dengan menentukan kapasiti iaitu bilangan murid yang boleh menggunakan pada satu-satu masa.

Mereka juga mendakwa murid-murid tidak dilengkapi jaket keselamatan ketika menyeberangi sungai, guru-guru didapati tidak terlatih untuk mengendalikan kem seperti itu serta tiada doktor atau pegawai perubatan ditempatkan untuk keselamatan peserta kem tersebut.

Plaintif juga mendakwa jambatan gantung tersebut tidak diperiksa oleh Majlis Daerah Kampar dan Jabatan Kerja Raya Perak bagi memastikan ciri-ciri keselamatan telah dipatuhi.

Mereka juga mendakwa kematian anak-anak mereka amat menyedihkan dan telah mengancam ketenteraman mereka dan keluarga selain masih mengalami dan menanggung kehilangan dan kerugian. - Bernama

Bukit Antarabangsa: RM1,000 sebulan tak cukup

soundsyst64 — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:42:41 +0800

http://malaysiakini.com/news/117831

Nov 19, 09

Bantuan kewangan bulanan RM1,000 yang dihulurkan oleh kerajaan Selangor kepada setiap keluarga mangsa bencana tanah runtuh di Bukit Antarabangsa akhir tahun lalu, adalah tidak mencukupi.

Bantuan tersebut diberi kepada 38 keluarga mangsa terbabit sejak April tahun ini.

Tragedi awal pagi 6 Disember tahun lalu itu mengorbankan lima nyawa dan memusnahkan 14 rumah di Taman Bukit Mewah, Bukit Antarabangsa.

Setiausaha jawatankuasa bertindak kumpulan penduduk tersebut, Raymond Jagathesan berkata,mangsa terbabit masih terbeban dengan pinjaman bank, serta perlu menyewa di tempat lain buat masa sekarang.

"Walaupun rumah terlibat dalam bencana atau terbakar, pihak bank masih mahu pemilik rumah itu menyelesaikan baki pinjaman," jelasnya lagi.

Di samping itu, katanya, mereka juga perlu menyewa di sekitar kawasan perumahan elit tersebut dengan kadar sewaan yang mencecah RM3,000.

"Mereka sekarang menyewa rumah di Ampang, sekitar Taman Bukit Perdana, Apartment Beverly Heights dan Taman Tun Abdul Razak. Mereka perlu belanja untuk sewa rumah antara RM2,000 hingga RM3,000 sebulan. Jumlah RM1,000 itu tidak cukup," jelasnya.

-------

Golongan pesara

Tambahnya, kebanyakan daripada pemilik rumah berkenaan terdiri daripada golongan pesara yang tidak mempunyai sumber pendapatan lain untuk menampung beban tersebut.

Beliau menegaskan demikian ketika diminta mengulas keputusan kerajaan mendeklasifikasikan laporan siasatan tanah runtuh di situ untuk membolehkan orang ramai, khususnya mangsanya, mengetahui perkara yang sebenarnya berlaku.

Laporan itu disediakan oleh Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR) untuk Majlis Perbandaran Ampang Jaya (MPAJ).

Menteri besar berkata, beliau juga akan menemui penduduk di situ awal Januari ini dan akan memberi bantuan kepada penduduk yang menjadi mangsa tanah runtuh itu.

Menurut Raymond lagi, kontraktor yang bertanggungjawab membaikpulih jalan masuk ke kawasan perumahan itu juga perlu mempercepatkan kerja-kerja tersebut untuk membolehkan seramai 38 keluarga terlibat pulang ke rumah semula.

"Kontraktor janji kerja-kerja ini sepatutnya habis pada bulan September. Sekarang sudah bulan November," katanya.

--------

Jalan lewat siap

Tambahnya, kini hanya sebilangan keluarga di kawasan Taman Bukit Mewah yang dibenarkan memasuki rumah mereka.

"Penduduk di Jalan Wangsa 9 tidak dibenarkan balik sebab tidak ada jalan langsung," katanya.

Mengulas mengenai pendedahan laporan tersebut, Raymond berkatya, pihak yang bertanggungjawab menyebabkan berlaku insiden tersebut perlu tampil ke depan.

Menurut laporan tersebut, tanah runtuh tersebut dikenalpasti berpunca daripada kebocoran paip yang dipasang di sepanjang sederet rumah kosong.

Raymond berkata, sekiranya terdapat unsur kecuaian, individu yang bertanggungjawab tidak boleh 'lepas tangan' begitu sahaja.

"Ini kerana kecuaian itu menyebabkan bencana yang bukan saja memusnahkan harta benda tapi juga nyawa," kata Raymond.

"Sekarang kita hendak tahu siapa yang bertanggungjawab pasang paip itu dan bagaimana ia boleh pecah. Kita juga mahu mereka tampil ke depan dan kata 'ini kesilapan kami, sekarang apa kami boleh bantu?" soalnya.

Katanya lagi, tindakan menteri besar mendedahkan maklumat dalam laporan sulit itu adalah satu langkah yang baik kerana dapat memadamkan khabar-khabar angin yang berlegar sebelum ini.

"Sebab sebelum ini banyak khabar angin yang kata tanah runtuh sebabnya macam-macam. Jadi apabila kita dapat tahu sebab sebenar, sekarang kita rasa lega sedikit.

"Sekurang-kurangnya kita dapat tahu sebabnya ialah paip pecah di depan kawasan rumah tinggal di kawasan ini," katanya.

No wonder bank/insurance don't want to pay the victims.. Paip pecah, not natural disaster

In the meantime, the victim seems pretty greedy. Why don't sewa somewhere else that provides cheap rent? To those victims, seek help from Khir Toyo to get more funds for your monthly rent. For next GE, vote AMENO because they can give you more funds. Masih lagi mahu berlagak kaya.

Laman web k'jaan mengecewakan

Hanya tujuh laman web atau 0.65 peratus daripada 1,192 portal dan laman web kendalian kementerian serta agensi kerajaan
yang disenaraikan Perbadanan Pembangunan Multimedia (MDEC) memperoleh penilaian lima bintang, kata ketua setiausaha negara.

Tan Sri Mohd Sidek Hassan berkata maklumat daripada laporan 'Penilaian Laman Web dan Portal Kerajaan Malaysia 2009' itu ternyata amat mengecewakan kerana ia jelas menggambarkan angka laman web yang mendapat kualiti tinggi adalah sangat kecil berbanding dengan jumlah keseluruhan.

"Semua ketua jabatan perlu melakukan sesuatu bagi memulihkan imej mereka dan mendapatkan semula keyakinan rakyat.

"Saya harap hasil laporan MDEC ini diambil serius oleh mereka yang berkenaan dan saya tidak mahu mengeluarkan apa-apa arahan memandangkan mereka ini bukannya golongan tidak cerdik, jadi sepatutnya mereka faham sendiri tentang tanggungjawab mereka," katanya pada sidang akhbar selepas merasmikan seminar 'Perubahan 1Pengurusan Perkhidmatan Kerajaan Dalam Talian: Amalan Utama Untuk Berubah" di Kuala Lumpur hari ini.

Beliau berkata laman web yang mendapat pengiktirafan lima bintang itu ialah laman web kendalian Kementerian Kewangan, Pejabat Perdana Menteri, Unit Pemodenan Tadbiran dan Perancangan Pengurusan Malaysia (Mampu), Jabatan Mineral dan Geosains Malaysia, Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan, Pejabat Kerajaan Negeri Selangor dan portal myGovernment.

"Hasil laporan itu juga sebenarnya satu cabaran kepada mereka jika tujuh laman web ini boleh mendapat penilaian lima bintang, jadi kenapa selebihnya tidak boleh mendapatkan pengiktirafan sama," katanya.

Mohd Sidek berharap agar kementerian dan agensi yang belum mencapai tahap membanggakan diminta untuk mencari jalan bagi menambah baik kandungan laman web kendalian mereka.

Beliau berkata antara kriteria diambilkira oleh MDEC untuk mendapat pengiktirafan itu ialah keupayaan laman web itu diakses oleh pengguna, menyediakan capaian dalam dwibahasa untuk memudahkan pengguna berurusan dan selalu dikemaskini.

"Usaha penambahbaikan sistem penyampaian perkhidmatan yang berfokuskan pelanggan bukan saja perlu bermatlamatkan yang terbaik saja, tapi perlu manfaatkan teknologi serta dilaksanakan secara inovatif.

"Transformasi dalam perkhidmatan awam perlu dilaksanakan seberapa segera dan teratur memandangkan sektor awam adalah sektor kritikal dalam usaha menjadikan Malaysia sebuah negara maju dan boleh mencapai sasaran ditetapkan,” katanya. BERNAMA

Schoolboy Rapes 30 Women

soundsyst64 — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 17:06:17 +0800

Ori sauce - http://www.thelocal.se/23266/20091114/
Below sauce - sankakucomplex

A “baby-face” serial rapist thought to be behind as many as 30 sex attacks over recent months has turned out to be an actual schoolboy.

Police in Sweden’s southern city of Gothenburg were perplexed by dozens of similar rapes and sexual assaults, many widely reported as describing a “baby-face” man.

The rapes, which began in August and continued until recently, were distinguished by their unusual modus operandi – the attacker would randomly knock on people’s doors, conversing and asking personal questions of potential victims, and then forcing his way inside, although police paradoxically claim “he has not shown himself to be violent.”

Police describe his brazen tactics:

QUOTE

“He’s really direct and looks women who open their doors straight in the eye and asks, for example, ‘Are you married, will you marry me, is your husband home, do you want to have a quickie?’

If he’s met with resistance and the door is closed, he just goes across the hall and rings the next door and tries again. He can ring at a lot of doors before he leaves an area.”

When answered by a man he would say he came to the wrong home and flee.

Police subsequently arrested a 15-year-old boy in connection with the attacks.

He has been firmly implicated in two rapes, two attempted rapes and two sexual assaults. Police are confident their boy is responsible for the rest:

QUOTE

”We are absolutely sure we have arrested the right person. There are six investigations currently underway and we believe he has committed many more sexual assaults which we hope to be able to prove.”

Sweden has some of the highest rates of rape and sexual assault in the developed world, which apologists say is because free sexual relations and “the right to say no” are so well entrenched, along with an increasingly broad definition of rape.

Critics say that overly broad definitions of what constitutes rape and false reporting inflate these numbers. Many also say this is a mere smokescreen, and point instead to the nation’s large population of poorly integrated Muslim immigrants, with most rapes supposedly committed by non-Swedes, a taboo subject in the overwhelmingly leftist political landscape of Sweden.

Swindler Cons 20 into Sex

Ori sauce : http://www.chinapost.com.tw/taiwan/local/t...895/Con-man.htm
Below souce - sankakucomplex

A conman who duped 20 women into having kinky sex with him by posing as a young man whose father needed sex to stay alive has been arrested. He was also found to have swindled some 6 million dollars from them, and to have blackmailed them with incriminating photos in order to keep them quiet.

The man, a 55-year-old resident of Taiwan’s capital Taipei, who police unkindly described as “bald” and “unattractive,” began a criminal scheme where he would pose as a handsome young man online.

Luring in women in this way, he would beguile them over the phone and Internet, telling them that his poor father was suffering from prostate cancer and needed constant sex to survive.

Posing as the son, he would promise gifts and betrothal, but would also beg victims to visit his dear father in the presidential suites of a variety of top hotels for sex. He would then play the role of the father in person.

Victims were persuaded into a variety of kinky sex acts, including sodomy and group sex. He would also take lewd pictures of the victims in order to blackmail them into keeping quiet.

He did not stop at sex – he also gulled victims into giving him assets worth the equivalent of 6.2 million US dollars. One victim, after losing several hundred thousand dollars to the crook, hired a private detective to investigate. Soon police became involved and his schemes unravelled, culminating in his arrest.

Police found checks for millions of dollars and hundreds of carefully catalogued incriminating photographs of his female victims in his possession, including some involving top Taiwanese models.

He denies defrauding his victims of money, but apparently told police that he targeted victims aged 28-50 as they were more gullible.

If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of 5 years for each offence.

Schoolgirl “Therapists” Offer

Nippon sauce : http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/e-japan/kanagawa/...-OYT8T00066.htm
English sauce : sankakucomplex

The latest innovation in Japan’s sex industry is the use of underage schoolgirls as part-time “therapists,” dressed in sexually suggestive uniforms and offering clients the chance of an oily massage, with some girls said to be earning $300 a day.

These “少女エステ店 / shoujo aesthete-ten” (“girl beautician shops”) are a recent innovation, originally started as normal massage parlours (which in Japan very often double as legal brothels) employing girls over the age of 18 for (non-sexual) therapeutic massages.

However, soon such establishments began employing the under-18s as well, with such younger girls enjoying great popularity amongst customers. One 16-year-old girl working at such a shop described her motivations for taking on the lucrative work: “there are those who don’t mind touching people’s bodies, but I’m doing it for the extra pocket money.”

The girls are said to don “uniforms” after school finishes, consisting of blouses or miniskirts, working until 9PM. The therapy consists of the girl joining the (male) patron in a small room, where the man removes his trousers and underwear and lies down, enabling the “therapeutic” application of aromatic oils and massaging of his legs.

Any untoward action on the part of customers is greeted with a swift call for help, although it is not clear how often this occurs.

Rates for one such establishment run from ¥4,000 for 40 minutes to ¥16,800 to 100 minutes, with the time spent in conversation and therapeutic massage. Some girls can take home over ¥30,000 each day, more than they could likely earn in any pursuit short of actual prostitution, itself exceedingly common in Japanese schools.

The services are now offered in several large Japanese cities, including Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya and Sapporo, with shops conveniently situated near major stations.

Police express their concerns that the work “dangerously targets the sexuality of young girls,” and are said to be considering their legal options, but the manager of one such establishment stresses that “this is on the borderline, but there is no issue as we can immediately report any threat to our therapists.”

Kongres Kesatuan Pekerja Dalam Perkhidmatan Awam (Cuepacs) akur dengan keputusan kerajaan tidak memberikan bonus dua bulan gaji kepada 1.2 juta kakitangan awam tahun ini selepas menerima penjelasan Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak hari ini.

Presidennya Omar Osman berkata Perdana Menteri bagaimanapun memberi jaminan untuk mengkaji pemberian tambahan bonus sebanyak RM500 dalam masa terdekat sekiranya keadaan ekonomi mengizinkan.

"Perdana Menteri juga memberi jaminan akan menimbangkan pemberian bonus dua bulan seperti mana permintaan kongres sekiranya keadaan ekonomi negara pulih kelak.

"Perkara ini dalam pertimbangan Perdana Menteri, tetapi dalam masa terdekat kita berharap ada pertambahan RM500 untuk kakitangan awam mendapat RM1,000 Disember nanti," katanya kepada pemberita selepas pertemuan kira-kira satu jam dengan perdana menteri di Parlimen, hari ini.

Bagi penjawat awam berpangkat Jawatan Utama Sektor Awam (JUSA), Omar berkata perdana menteri pada pertemuan hari ini turut bersetuju menimbangkan permintaan kongres untuk memberikan potongan cukai pendapatan sehingga 30 peratus.

Omar berkata dalam pertemuan itu Najib menjelaskan dalam keadaan ekonomi sekarang, kerajaan mungkin terpaksa membabitkan pinjaman daripada sumber lain sekiranya mahu memenuhi permintaan kongres.

Cuepacs sebelum ini menuntut kerajaan menimbangkan pemberian bonus dua bulan gaji kepada kakitangan awam dalam perbentangan Bajet 2010 pada 23 Oktober lepas.

Kerajaan bagaimanapun mengumumkan akan memberikan bayaran khas sebanyak RM500 kepada penjawat awam gred 41 hingga 54 dan setaraf dengannya serta pesara wajib kerajaan pada Disember ini.

Turut dibincangkan pada pertemuan itu ialah mengenai kenyataan perdana menteri kepada Cuepacs bahawa adalah salah dari segi moral bagi kongres itu menuntut bonus ketika keadaan ekonomi negara masih belum pulih sepenuhnya.

Perdana menteri juga menyifatkan tindakan kongres itu boleh membuatkan Cuepacs popular di kalangan ahlinya, tetapi dalam konteks ekonomi semasa ia disifatkan sebagai tidak wajar.

"Selepas perdana menteri menjelaskan apa sebenarnya yang dimaksudkan, kita terima dan perkara ini kita anggap sudah tamat," kata Omar.

Dalam isu lain, Omar berkata kongres itu turut menyerahkan memorandum kepada perdana menteri untuk menimbangkan supaya 18,000 warga pekerja Kemas diberi keistimewaan yang sama dengan warga perkhidmatan awam.

Dalam pertemuan itu, perdana menteri juga bersetuju untuk menambah geran peruntukan tahunan Cuepacs kepada RM1 juta bermula tahun depan, katanya.

Tahun lepas, Cuepacs menerima RM350,000 bagi menjalankan aktiviti kongres. - Bernama

Semasa bercuti dengan keluarga di selatan Perancis pada Ogos lepas, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor terjumpa sebuah kotak milik Putera Saud Al-Saud dari Arab Saudi dalam sebuah bot dan memulangkannya kepada kerabat diraja itu.

Sebagai balasan kerana kejujurannya itu, isteri Perdana Menteri diberikan US$2 juta untuk rakyat Malaysia yang memerlukan.

Hari ini, Rosmah mengagihkan sebahagian wang itu berjumlah RM20,000 setiap satu kepada 13 persatuan amal (total RM 260,000) termasuk Persatuan Bekas Tentera Malaysia, Persatuan Pandu Puteri Malaysia, Majlis AIDS Malaysia, Yayasan Harapan Kanak-kanak Malaysia, Persatuan Orang Cacat Anggota Malaysia dan persatuan isteri wakil rakyat BN di setiap negeri.

Beliau berkata US$1 juta lagi (RM 3,401,500.23) akan diserahkan kepada Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia yang menguruskan Sekolah Permata Pintar bagi menampung pembelian keperluan sekolah, manakala baki RM2.98 juta akan disimpan dalam tabung khas Bakti bagi membiayai kos rawatan kanak-kanak dan wanita yang berpenyakit kronik yang tidak berkemampuan.

Ketika menceritakan pertemuan kotak itu kepada pemberita, Rosmah berkata beliau sekeluarga sedang bercuti atas jemputan putera diraja Kuwait yang berkawan dengan anaknya, Riza Shahriz.

"Semasa sedang berkemas ketika hendak balik, saya terjumpa kotak itu dan berikannya kepada pengurus bot dan beritahunya supaya pulangkan barang berharga ini kepada tuan punya.

"Saya kata jangan usik, jangan buat apa-apa. Pastikan ia dalam keadaan baik dan beri kepada Putera Saud Al-Saud," katanya.

Menurutnya, dua minggu selepas itu baginda mengucapkan terima kasih kepada beliau kerana memulangkan kotak itu yang tercicir semasa sedang bercuti dalam bot yang sama.

"Putera itu kata nak berikan hadiah dan saya kata hadiah terbaik adalah untuk kesejahteraan rakyat Malaysia," kata Rosmah.

Selepas menerima cek ganjaran itu, beliau berbincang dengan Datuk Seri Najib Razak yang meminta beliau menguruskan wang itu secepat mungkin dan diagihkan kepada pihak yang memerlukan.

"Saya juga meminta pegawai dari Pejabat Perdana Menteri untuk ke pejabat Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia supaya sumbangan ini bersih dan tiada pihak yang memutarbelitkan fakta," kata Rosmah.

Kotak yang ditemui itu dipercayai mengandungi beberapa keping cek. BERNAMA

So, where's the baki?
