vox populi small thumbnail 'What about the bigger fish? The one who signed the letter of guarantee to Kuala Dimensi on his last day in office as transport minister?'

PAC: Probe ex-transport minister for CBT

Wong Chee Kong: Mr Prime Minister, if the government can prosecute and jail all those who had caused such huge losses through the Port Klang Free Zone project regardless of their political positions, you can be sure many will swing their votes to BN at the next general election.

By the same token, if all these actions by the authorities are just for show in protecting certain individuals (and the rakyat can smell that), you can bet your bottom ringgit that more will turn away from BN at the next general election.

Thuraisingham Shun: The PAC probe must read in between the lines to uncover the hidden agenda. Their probe should begin with how the project was hatched and why was the land purchased at an inflated rate. Then the whole truth will be out.

Kgan: What about the bigger fish? The one who signed the letter of guarantee to Kuala Dimensi on his last day in office as transport minister? Following his footsteps, Chan Kong Choy signed two similar letters of guarantees.

If Chan is guilty, so is this ‘big fish'. In fact, even more so as he opened the floodgates.

Who will hear Nizar's case?

Bosco Philip Anthony: The Federal Court is the apex court. The constitution to all people is a supreme document upon which we found our faith upon independence. It contains the fundamental road map for the fulfilment of all our rights in our society.

As such, the judges in Mohd Nizar Jamaluddin's appeal should not endeavour to play a game of hairsplitting and destroy the rhythm of the constitution. We expect the judges to give the simplest and most obvious interpretation. May the judges give a sound decision without fear or favour.

Lusiapa: To all the judges selected to hear this final appeal, remember, God is watching from a distance. At the end of the day, you will be answerable to Him alone and not to any political master, no matter how powerful he may be.

I'm still No 2, says defiant Liow

Cala: Liow Tiong Lai and his Third Force are the conscience of MCA. Why not? Is it not true that under any party's institutional framework, an AGM or EGM sits higher than a president?

What wrong has Liow and his Third Force committed when they pressed for Ong Tee Keat to respect for the outcome of Oct 10 EGM?

To stubbornly cling on to the ‘dragon chair' is, to my mind, an act disrespect to the party's constitution, which is incidentally a part of its institutional framework for governance.

The embattled and discredited president should not be allowed to go free (or to go loose) as if nothing untoward has happened. What is now at stake is the honour of the party which is in tatters brought about by the irrational Ong.

Look here, a proven ‘lone ranger' cannot be made to lead the team yet again. If he is walking the talk, why were Liow and the Third Force not present at the press conference? Indeed, Liow and his Third Force are the enlightened ones for they dare to stand up to the tyranny of Ong. They are the conscience of MCA.

Tan Hoe Een: Face it, Liow, you bluffed and they called your bluff so just lay down your cards and raise your hands and smile, if you will. But don't snarl and show your fangs.

There is three sides to a coin - heads, tails and the side between the heads and tails. Likewise, there is your story and his story and one more story - the real story.

For us Malaysians, we want to know the real story. Other than that, it is just your story and his story and the likelihood you are going to be history.

NumeroUno: Liow, when the gig is up, its up, for goodness sakes. You mounted a premature strike and scored on your own goal. Not sure what your previous profession was but it would be a good idea to start practicising because you going need it.

Nobody would touch you now for your ‘Judas manuever'. On second thoughts, Gerakan just might. Just remember where you got the idea from for your next home.

2nd autopsy: Dr Pornthip 'can watch, not touch'

Wira: In the interest of justice, can't the Malaysian Medical Council allow the Thai pathologist to do the autopsy? Moreover, it's a dead body we are talking about and I hope the country is not so stupid as to fight over who has the pathological right to a dead body.
