Firstly, on behalf of Malaysia Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF) take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the IGP YDH Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar for attending and officiate our program this morning.

Ladies and gentleman, for information,  program  this morning was jointly organized by MCPF and Kuala Lumpur police. I take this opportunity to thank police Kuala Lumpur and MCPF KL for the joint effort in making this program successful.

Roundtable discussion program is MCPF efforts to forge closer relations between communities and the police. Besides, it is also intended to seek the views and comments of the community to enhance the level of service to the community by the authorities.

Last year MCPF has organized Round Table Discussion in several states such as Kedah, Perak, Johor, Negeri Sembilan and Selangor. This year MCPF also plans to hold this program in Terengganu, Malacca, Sabah and Sarawak.


INFORMATION ON MCPF

Before I continue let me share little bit about Malaysia Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF)

Malaysia Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF) is a Non-Government Organisation, was established on January 11th 1993. It is a Chapter of the Asia Crime Prevention Foundation, which is based in Tokyo, Japan and is the first Chapter to be established outside Japan. (MCPF is also a non-profit organisation).

The launching of the Foundation was officiated by the former Prime Minister of Malaysia, YABhg Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, who was also the Patron of MCPF then.
The present patron is the Prime Minister of Malaysia, YAB Dato' Sri Mohd Najib Bin Tun Hj Abdul Razak. Our Chairman is YAB Dato' Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Bin Hamidi, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Home Affairs. The Deputy Chairman is YDH Tan Sri Dato' Sri Khalid Bin Abu Bakar, Inspector General of Police, Royal Malaysian Police. Besides the Chairman and his Deputy, there are 34 members in the Executive Council of MCPF, which is the highest body in MCPF. These members are prominent figures from both the public and private sectors.

Objectives of this Foundation are :

i)             To promote public awareness in crime prevention at all times
ii)            To get public participation in crime prevention efforts of the government and other interested parties
iii)          MCPF also aims to contribute to the enhancement of effective measures for crime prevention and treatment of offenders. The ultimate goal is peace, stability and zero crime level in our country.


In order to realize this objective is achieved, the foundation carries out various crime prevention programs throughout Malaysia .


Ladies and gentleman,

Crime and criminal activities have become a matter of importance to all Malaysians. Every day we are always presented with the news of crime whether street crime, violent crime or property crime.

Many of these crimes are violent, which in most cases leave deep emotional scars on the victim.

In reality to expect a country that is completely free of crime is impossible. But what is possible is to take all necessary measures to reduce crime or to prevent crime. Crime prevention is the attempt of various sectors, disciplines and concerted action. So Crime Prevention is Everyone's Responsibility.

Crime Index released by the police, it is evident that in Malaysia CRIME TREND decreased annually in recent years. This clearly shows that the initiative introduced by the police in reducing crime managed to fruition.

Crime Prevention and Community safety (JPJJK) Royal Malaysian Police (RMP) established recently to ensure the assignment of crime prevention carried out more regularly and systematically.

I strongly believe JPJKK Bukit Aman under the supervision of YCD CP Dato Acryl Sani, will continue to be active and move forward with the introduction of various crime prevention programs covering all levels of society.

Ladies and gentleman,

Crime is a problem and the enemies of the people and can only be overcome after we have combined integrated energy of the society itself. Crime prevention is a shared responsibility that is often underscored by the Malaysian Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF)

We are aware that crime can happen anywhere, therefore it is very important if we know the action to be taken in order to prevent ourselves from becoming easy targets of criminals.
There is no point of us emerging but at the same time more and more people live squeezed fear and feel threatened by crime. Therefore, the government must continue to take steps to eradicate poverty, unemployment and injustice in the social integration aimed at protecting them from engaging in criminal activities.


I sincerely hope that through round table discussions this morning, participants will be able  to give their views and constructive proposals that could help the authorities in implementing reduce crime.


 Ladies and gentleman,

Once again i like to thank YDH IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar , YBhg Datuk Kamarudin Ali, the police chief of KL, members of the panel and all who were involved in the program this morning. I also thank the MATIC who has given us the venue to run the program today.

Muhyiddin's removal will be 'final nail in Umno's coffin': Mukhriz

While the Umno supreme council meeting slated for later today may take action against its deputy president Muhyiddin Yassin, former Kedah menteri besar Mukhriz Mahathir warns that any such move would be 'the final nail in Umno's coffin'.
He said if Muhyiddin was dropped from his position or suspended from the party, it would demonstrate that all values and principles espoused by the party were dead.
He said when Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak sacked Muhyiddin from his cabinet, the move had disappointed a lot of people.
The Umno supreme council is expected to meet this afternoon, with council member Nazri Abdul Aziz intending to propose that the party's disciplinary board suspend Muhyiddin for his incessant outbursts against Najib.
Mukhriz in his statement today said no matter what the reason, an elected party leader could not simply be removed from his position.
He said the allegations made by the deputy president and by other critics within the party could not be accepted as an excuse to move against them.
"The Umno constitution doesn't stop members or leaders from questioning issues raised by the people.
"Therefore, questioning a major issue cannot be treated as a wrong move."
Mukhriz recalled party vice-president Mohd Shafie Apdal's comment that no action was taken against critics during Mukhriz father ex-premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad's time when he was challenged in the 1987 party election.
He recalled that then Umno deputy president Musa Hitam still officiated the Youth and Wanita general assemblies that year.
"In contrast, Muhyiddin was prevented from officiating the three wings' assembly recently to prevent him from speaking out."
Mukhriz also said said Umno was using all sorts of unreasonable excuses in answering questions involving 1MDB, the RM2.6 billion donation and SRC funds amongst others.
On top of that, he said they were taking measures to ensure that the investigations into these issues by various government agencies did not succeed.
Muhyiddin victimised
Mukhriz also lambasted certain Umno leaders who said in questioning their leaders, the grassroots were trying to split the party.
He added he didn't expect the Umno supreme council to do anything good for the party and hoped that Muhyddin wouldn't be vilified.
He reminded the party leaders that their actions were being watched by society including the youth.
"Are we aware that the youth have expressed disgust and hate towards Umno due to the top leader's action?
"If Muhyiddin is victimised, I believe many Umno members will quit the party what more those fence-sitters who have been in support of Umno.
"This is the message sent to me by many Malays," said Mukhriz.

10 questions… with Din Merican

Din Merican reminds me of Don Quixote – a chivalrous gentlemen out to right wrongs, and bring justice to the world. But Din, as he prefers to be called, does it a bit differently – he blogs.

Born in Alor Setar, Kedah in 1940, Din received his early education from Penang Free School and pursued his studies in economics at the University of Malaya. Later, armed with scholarships from the Kedah State and Bank Negara Malaysia, Din graduated from the George Washington School of Business and later on from George Washington University in the US.

Upon his return, Din served the Malaysian government as a Foreign Service Officer and in the Central Bank before making a move to industry and commerce.

Many may not be aware that Din was among the many unsung heroes who made Bersih back in 2007 such a success. He is still involved in the political scene today, advocating the universal values of fairness and justice, sharing his thoughts and incisive views through his blog.

din-merican-4Attached to the University of Cambodia, Din currently resides in Phnom Penh, while his lovely wife, Dr Kamsiah Haider lives in Malaysia. At 76, he may be thousands of miles away in a foreign land, but his heart has never left home.

I thank Din Merican for taking time to entertain my ten random questions.

Question 1: What are the three things that make you instantly happy?

Reading books on Politics, Economics and Political Science

Music

丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅: 政治不该介入华教(NEWSLINK)

新董总主席拿督刘利民:董总新领导层不排斥通过政治力量,解决华教问题

丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅:政治不该介入华教

丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅:政治不该介入 华教问题,应交由资深学者解决

社会爱心基金会主席暨
来西亚彭氏总会总会长丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅:
政治不该介入华教
交由资深学者解决

我对于所谓新董总主席拿督刘利民声称董总新领导层不排斥通过政治力量,解决华教问题,感到震惊不已。
原因是在于真正的董总领导人,还有待法庭作出判决后,才有定论,但目前看来董总领导人“闹双包”的僵局尚未解决。
“除非这不是你(刘利民)说过的话,我希望这番话不是出自你口中,否则你得花费唇舌对外释疑,让广大热爱华教的人士有更多的了解,要不然草根也不会服从你。”
这不该出自一个一向秉持“超越政党、不超越政治”的原则立场,从不阿谀奉承政治人物的华教的领导人口中。
我们草根和华裔也不希望见到有任何华教领袖,会利用政治力量去干预或干涉华教的发展,这也是一般维护华教的华社及草根所不愿意见到的局面。
“总的来说,我认为华教应该交由资深学者或教育专家处理,充其量你(刘利民)和我只不过是个商人,我们还不个够资格,同时需要多点时间去学习,以及真诚地互相交流,如何处理这种深具意义又带有敏感性的问题,并愿意与你共勉之。”
我也希望刘利民花点时间充实自己、检讨自己。
最后,解决华教问题,还是交由资深学者,绝不容许任何政客,尤其是“半桶水”的人士插手。
所有草根和华裔将会铭记在心,我们不能再添乱了,因为我们没有再乱的本钱了,千万不要再掉入陷阱中。

WHAT SAY U - Death penalty/你怎么说-贩毒死刑该不该废除?PART II(NEWSLINK)

http://www.chinapress.com.my/?p=587434


彭茂燊:反毒先從教育著手
社會愛心基金會主席暨大馬防範罪案基金會執委丹斯里彭茂燊也是節目的主要嘉賓,他認為在探討廢除死刑與否前,政府必須付出更大的努力,從教育方面著手,讓人們明白販毒嚴重性,不要涉及任何相關罪案。
 他說,政府必須通過教育傳達上述理念,無論是學校、家庭或社會,都必須被授予販毒不好的觀念。
 目前大馬仍是世界上少數保留死刑的國家,尤其是毒品案的死刑刑罰,然而國內卻發生多起因被利用而成為毒驢的案件,受到國際人權組織關注,要求探討廢除死刑的可能性。
 彭茂燊認為,被利用的行為多數與貪念有關,若沒有貪念,讓人有機會教唆或受騙的話,那就可避免成為毒品犯罪集團操縱的毒驢。
 他說,各界都支持人道舉措,但毒品的影響深遠,甚至會毀掉國家,若不殺一儆百,會有更多危險物品進入我國。無論是政府和人民,必須好好思考如何根治犯罪源頭。
 “政府必須設法阻止毒品入侵,而家庭成員也要阻止家人涉毒;至于囚犯,也要給予輔導,讓他們悔改。”

吳健南:須能懲戒及公眾接受 多方面探討廢除死刑

 (吉隆坡21日訊)律師吳健南指出,廢除死刑必須從多方面進行探討,包括為期20年的終身監禁替代刑罰,是否能懲戒犯罪者和獲公眾接受。
 吳健南也是馬青法律局主任,他引述1980年代某司法界大法官的某判決指,廢除死刑與否,目前輿論立場是還沒有做好準備,但不排除未來會朝著這方向。


 “我們應該拋出同樣問題,讓大家思考到底能不能接受廢除死刑?這不可能是單方向的思考,而是要綜合要不要強制死刑或終身監禁,都一併考慮在內。”
 他今日出席TV2中文清談節目“你怎么說”時指出,當人們覺得死刑不適當、過于嚴重、是沒有回頭路的刑罰時,即代表認為被制裁者沒有改過自新的機會,在這種情況下,有著相等懲戒的替代刑罰就是終生監禁。
 “一般人會認為終生監禁就是在監獄裡度過一生,但在我國是泛指20年的監禁,不包括特殊情況,如涉及國家犯罪,有可能被判終身在監獄裡,沒有出來的一天,這就產生是否人道,或20年期限足夠與否的爭議。”
或加長終身監禁期限
 他認為,廢除死刑即代表告訴被殺害的受害者家屬,犯罪者將監禁20年后被釋放,那家屬是否能接受及覺得公正?這時就需要大家檢討和探討,終身監禁該不該也延長一些特殊及嚴重的謀殺案裡面,又或者加長終身監禁期限。
 另外,他反問,若販毒罪行強制性死刑也廢除,是否代表會令毒驢更害怕還是更猖獗,尤其是幕后集團是否更容易找到跑腿毒驢來參與?;法官有斟酌權來決定任何罪案的刑罰,是否更容易成為目標等問題,都必須進一步被探討。

WHAT SAY U -Death Penalty/你怎么说-死刑该不该废除? (Q & N)

2016-2-21 death penalty_questions (1)-KHOR
PROGRAM :WHAT SAY U 你怎么说
DATE21 FEB 2016
TITLE:  贩毒死刑该不该废除你怎么说
PANEL: 1.  大马社会爱心基金会主席 -- 丹斯里拿督彭茂燊太平局绅
             2.  吴健南律师
 



Q & A

1          我国法律对毒品犯罪规定了严厉的刑罚,可以和我们说一说,走私、贩卖、运输、制造毒品等这些涉毒的罪行,一般是不是都会面对死刑
           
            答:我国是世界上最严厉对付毒贩的国家之一。而且马来西亚也是世界上20个保留处决罪犯的国家之一。根据政府之前发布的数据,马来西亚共处决了440名罪犯,其中毒贩超过半数。

2          毒品案件有很多灰色地带,尤其是近年来,贩毒集团很多都是利用毒驴来运毒,当中包括了妇女、青年还有老人,结果被捉的都是这些“小鱼”,法官在裁决时,这些都不能作为斟酌和考量的因素吗?

            答:人往往因一时之贪、无知或求快速脱贫,就成为了毒贩利用的对象。然而,这些人都是升斗小民,只负责运送,却因而走不归路,不幸赔上了性命。从法律角度来说,我国的危险毒品法令于1952年实行时,法官仍然有酌处权,至1983年已修改为强制性死刑。

3          说到运毒被判处死刑的案例,不得不提轰动一时的大马青年杨伟光运毒案件            ,杨伟光2007年因运送47.27克海洛英入境新加坡而遭警方逮捕,当年他只有19岁。法庭在2009年宣判杨伟光死刑。当时马新两地民众纷纷为他联署求情,包括要求新加坡总统特赦,都遭到拒绝。杨伟光最终在新加坡政府修正強制性死刑法案后,才逃过了死刑,改判终身监禁。这起案件在法理和情理上都有很大的启示,对马新政府修订強制性死刑法案,其实也起着一定的推动作用,你又怎么看待这起案件的启示?

            答:杨伟光案件,给我的启示是“生命诚可贵”。所谓‘一失足成千古恨,回头已是百年身’正是这案件的写照,这也是给予世人的一种警惕,并非所有人都是这么幸运的,别抱着侥幸的心理,以身试法。

4          法律是司法机构仲裁的标准和规范,没有人情的因素在内。被判死刑就等于剥夺了一个人的生命,没有悔改和重生的机会。有人认为,对贩毒者实施死刑,其实是过重的刑罚? 监禁更加符合人权和人道主义, 你的观点如何?

            答:如果以人权和人道作为重点,赞成废除死刑的人就以受刑人的人权与人道作为论点,那么,那么我们也剥夺受害人和他们家人的人权与人道。两者之间,其实是充满矛盾的。从另一个观点来看,我们应该探讨实施死刑的目地是什么?是为了‘杀一儆百’的作用?自从有死刑以来,它效果如何?是否治标又治本?如果废除死刑会否使情况更严重?为什么标榜世界上最民主和文明的美国依然保留死刑?实际上,没有一种制度是十全十美的。即使古代中国拥有五马分尸的酷刑,但人们依然会冒死作恶。即使今时今日,依然有人不畏惧死亡,把自己变成武器,以殉教殉道的方式对其他无辜人进行残害。我个人认为,死刑可以不废除,但应该有个缓刑制度,以免错杀无辜。对被判死刑的囚犯和其家人,在等行刑的过程中,其实在他们心理上已是最大的折磨,也许死反而会成为他们的期待,觉得‘速死速决’不失为一个解脱之道。其实每一个时代,有每一个时代的需求,并没有一定的标准,人文专家与法律专家应深入探讨。

5          新加坡政府是对贩毒者有条件的免除强制性死刑。我国政府准备向国会提呈《1952年危险毒品法令》修订案,又是一个怎样的修订案?

            答:如果要以世人公认的人权与人道为重,那么,也许可以恢复1983年以前的法官酌处权,废除了‘强制性’死刑。

6          在废除贩毒强制死刑后,法官将依据什么来做出裁决?

            答:我认为应该以人民的自由与权力保障作为依规,来确定刑罚与刑种的运用

7          虽然很多人都认为死刑不人道,应该废除,但也有声音认为,贩毒罪行远比谋杀更为严重,因为毒品可毁掉整个社群及国家,因此,有必要保留死刑,作为阻吓作用。死刑究竟对消除毒品犯罪活动有多大的效用?

            答:自50年代实施死刑,如今的毒品活动是否大幅度下降呢?答案是,不减反增。因此,它是否具有有效的阻吓作用,看来是见仁见智。因为,千百年来,人类‘爱财如命’的心态并没有改变。

8          贩毒可以获得高额利润,这也是不法之徒不惜铤而走险贩运和贩卖毒品的原因。如果连死刑都无法阻吓毒品犯罪活动,什么样的法律才能起到严惩毒品犯罪的目的
           
            答:今日的犯罪活动,包括贩毒,都是集团化了。毒枭已不再‘亲力亲为’了,他们靠利诱,让许多无知的当跑腿,所以,我们才看到今日所谓的只有‘毒驴’、‘小鱼’被抓捕的消息。除了要有严格法律,我们还需严格执法,严格家庭教育等,优越的经济条件等,方方面面的通力配合,才能达到目的。其实,这是一个理想!

9          根据了解,我国因贩毒而被判死刑者,占了死囚总人数的大部分,而当中不少都是遭贩毒集团利用的跑腿或毒驴。同时也有大马毒驴在国外被判死刑。如果我国废除贩毒死刑,是否可以为这些在国外犯下贩毒罪行的国民,向有关国家提出宽恕申诉呢?

            答:至于国人在国外犯案受对付的问题,我们应该尊重有关国家的法律,就如我们要求外国人尊重我们的法律一样。所谓‘个人吃饭个人饱,个人犯案个人当’。

10        除了贩毒之外,我国总共有多少中罪行,是要被判强制性死刑的?

            答:据我所知,是谋杀,刑事法典第302条文之下,唯一的刑罚就是死刑!

11        死刑至今仍然是非常具有争议性的话题,随着人道主义思想的抬头,世界上已经有160多个国家已经废除死刑或者暂定这种刑罚方式。我国则是世界上少数仍保留死刑刑罚的国家,这次政府也只是修订1952年危险毒品法令》,并没有要完全废除死刑的意思,大马仍保留死刑的主要原因是什么?

            答:我认为是根据国情的需要而保留死刑,同时,一般也认为死刑具有强大的威慑能力。此外,从调查当中,我们也不难发现,人们一直保有‘罪大恶极,死有余辜’的观念,所有,有需求就有市场嘛。

12        一般什么样的案件,什么样的情况,检控官会要求判处罪犯死刑? 有没有一些特殊案例?

            答:我国死刑刑法当中,除了贩毒和谋杀之外,还有向最高元首发动战争、叛乱、叛变、拥有军火,以及其他数项谋害人命的罪行,包括教唆自杀、绑架撕票等。

13        但联合国坚持认为,死刑侵犯了生命权这一基本人权,事实证明其惩戒犯罪的作用并非十分有效,而且,在错判的情况下,死刑的后果是无可挽回的。你对死刑的存废和错判,持有什么样的看法?
           
            答:正如我较早前所说,我国可以考虑恢复1983年以前的法官判刑的酌处权,同时推行缓刑制度,让司法进行复核。由于这是涉及‘另一条人命’,司法也必须慎重,以免出现错假冤案。

14        我国在执行死刑是基于以牙还牙杀人赔命的司法逻辑来伸正义,但死刑是否是给受害者或家属最适宜的补偿?

            答:对于受害人的家属来说,他们无法从‘犯案者被判死刑’当中求得什么实质的补偿,而是一种慰籍吧。

15        也有人说,死刑与其说是对罪犯本身的惩戒,更多是对普通大众的震摄,也就是说为杀鸡儆猴,如果处于这样的情况考虑,对罪犯的惩戒应该更严格更好,才更有可能杜绝犯罪,你的看法如何

            答:惩戒是亡羊补牢的办法,以期达到警惕后人的作用,但效果是短暂的。贩毒案件有增无减,人们连死都不怕了,那还有什么刑罚可以遏制人的行为?我认为,最根本的,还是老话一句,教育,家庭教育为重。我相信,家庭是快速变迁社会的安定人心的锚,家庭教育的忽略,就是社会不安的根源。古训有云,修身齐家治国平天下。我们在治国平天下之前,就必须修身,正其心。

16        没有死刑,最高刑罚就是终生监禁, 与死刑相比,终身监禁会相对更为痛苦吗? 它对犯罪活动能都起到阻吓作用?

            答:其实,刑罚的目的,除了惩罚犯案者之外,也希望借此警惕其他人的作用。我觉得会有一定的效应,因为,一个活人可以分享他们的经验,以身说法。

17        随着时代、社会与司法体制的进步,你认为我国有没有可能加入废除死刑的国家?

            答:以目前的国情而言,我相信,我国还需要一段时日,才有改进司法的可能。在许多课题上,我国都会以政治作为考量, 废除死刑的想法也是如此。然而,废除死刑,改为终身监禁是否会带来沉重的经济压力呢?相信这也会成为议论的热点。
