Overcharge iPhone Bill !

Comment:

That’s how telecommunication companies made money, out of the 'mistakes' of clients/customers. What’s more, the high tech iPhone (That most people love and use; but I don’t love and use iPhone, as I know the ‘hidden‘ charges and tricks), and its so easy to mistakenly 'press' on the touch screen of iPhone that will activate the GPRS or phone Internet. You ‘used’ so you must pay! Imagine if you accidently press the GPRS or phone Internet the whole day? And its so easy to mistakenly press/activate the Internet on iPhone.

Advice: You NEED to disconnect the GPRS function by yourself on your iPhone, before you accidently press the phone Internet function, and have to pay hefty bill.

Overcharged iPhone bill : Telco justifies auto GPRS fees

ONG of Petaling Jaya is exasperated after finding in his phone bill he has been overcharged by DiGi. "My monthly bill usually comes up to no more than RM47.50. A few months ago, I received a statement from DiGi saying I owed them RM177.21. The following month, it was RM143.10.

"That was shocking news to me because my usual bill always been below RM50." ONG says she called up DiGi's Customer Service Hotline and was told the billing department would call her in three days. "After several missed calls and chasing after them, I was told my iPhone automatically connects to GPRS and incurs hefty charges this without me realising it.

"They told me this is apparently one of iPhone's flaws that had yet to be corrected. "I told them it was not fair to penalise me for a fault that was not mine and to charge me for a service I never used. But DiGi was adamant and won't waive these charges."

ONG claims some of her friends also encountered the same problem. "If DiGi knows such a fault exists in iPhones, they should warn customers about it and disable the GPRS function. I have since disabled the function but I suspect the telecommunication company is not going to issue any warnings to their customers."

ONG does not want others to go through her experience.
● A SPOKESMAN for DiGi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd says their investigations and records show the data charges are genuine as the customer’s postpaid account has an active GPRS service. "On iPhone, the customer has the option to switch off the cellular/roaming data service to prevent unwarranted data usage and charges. "We have since contacted the customer and the matter has been settled. DiGi has also cancelled the GPRS service as requested by the complainant.”

Naib Presiden PKR Keluar Parti !

Sikap Anwar punca tinggalkan parti beramai-ramai

MUAR 2 Feb. - Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin berkata, sikap Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim yang sering mengkhianati rakan merupakan punca pengasas dan pimpinan penting parti itu bertindak meninggalkannya beramai-ramai. Menurut Timbalan Presiden UMNO itu, Anwar lambat-laun akan ditinggalkan seorang diri kerana ramai penyokong yang sudah lari dengan terbaru Ahli Parlimen Padang Serai, N. Gobalakrishnan pada 29 Januari lalu.

"Semua pengasas bersama sudah 'chao liao', lari meninggalkan Anwar seorang sahaja. Ini bukan kenyataan politik tetapi ia sudah berlaku. Kenapa mereka buat begitu?

"Terbaru Gobalakrishnan, mereka tak percaya kerana Anwar pembohong besar, pengkhianat negara. Dia buat macam-macam cerita dalam dan luar negara yang bukan membawa kebaikan," katanya pada sidang akhbar selepas menghadiri taklimat banjir kawasan Parlimen Pagoh di Dewan Seri Pekembar Pagoh di sini hari ini. Beliau berkata, PKR juga umpama rumah yang kehilangan penyokong tetapi cuba ditegakkan seorang diri oleh Anwar, sehingga menjadikan ia sesuai dengan gelaran 'parti kian runtuh'.

Berhubung hasrat Anwar untuk membuat lawatan ke 30 kawasan Parlimen di seluruh negara untuk memperkukuhkan PKR dan memberi penerangan kepada orang ramai, Muhyiddin menegaskan, BN sentiasa bersedia di mana-mana kawasan untuk memberi penjelasan sebenar kepada rakyat. Katanya, tidak kira Anwar mahu bergerak ke 100 kawasan sekalipun, BN tidak akan gentar kerana parti pembangkang itu hanya membawa berita buruk dengan cercaan, fitnah dan pelbagai tuduhan terhadap kerajaan.

"Kian hari kepercayaan orang kian runtuh, jadi dia mungkin berasa perlu bergerak ke pelbagai tempat untuk menambah jangka hayat nyawa ikan yang masih tinggal.

"Mahu tidak mahu dia terpaksa bergerak, saya cadangkan dia bergerak ke seluruh negara bukan 30 kawasan sahaja kerana imej dia sudah teruk dan orang tidak percayanya lagi," katanya. Tambah beliau, pembangkang mungkin mencanangkan pelbagai rancangan seperti mahu menubuhkan negara Islam dengan kerjasama Pas dan pelan 100 hari tetapi keputusan Pilihan Raya Kecil Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Tenang dan di beberapa kawasan lain sebelum ini menunjukkan rakyat tidak mungkin terpedaya.

Muhyiddin juga menyatakan Selangor menjadi bukti PKR tidak tahu menguruskan negeri kerana isu pelantikan Setiausaha Kerajaan Negeri (SUK) menjadi begitu kalut dan maruah kerajaan itu jelas hilang apabila pindaan perlembagaan yang cuba dilakukan tidak mendapat kelulusan.

"Rakyat patut melihatnya sebagai tamparan besar kepada parti itu. Itu sebab Anwar kena pergi merantau setiap negeri meminta tolong, minta nyawa," ujarnya.

Gobalakrishnan keluar PKR

Oleh ABDUL MUIN SAPIDIN
muin.sapidin@utusan.com.my

KULIM 29 Jan. - Ahli Parlimen Padang Serai, N. Gobalakrishnan mengumumkan keluar daripada Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) dan melepaskan semua jawatannya dalam parti itu berkuat kuasa hari ini. Bekas Naib Presiden PKR itu berkata, ketika menyertai parti pada 1999, beliau percaya ia mampu membawa perubahan kepada rakyat atas semangat reformasi yang diperjuangkan Penasihat PKR, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Bagaimanapun, katanya, selepas hampir 12 tahun bersama PKR, beliau mendapati parti semakin rosak malah tersasar jauh daripada asas perjuangannya kerana dikuasai pemimpin seperti Anwar dan Timbalan Presiden, Azmin Ali yang hanya berjuang atas kepentingan diri sendiri.

Katanya, selain Anwar, Azmin ialah individu yang membawa pelbagai kerosakan dan perpecahan dalam parti sehingga tidak lagi dilihat boleh membawa perubahan kepada rakyat. "Terlalu banyak petunjuk termasuk dalam pemilihan parti baru-baru ini yang menunjukkan betapa PKR dirosakkan oleh Azmin. Berkali-kali saya bawa perkara ini kepada Anwar supaya semua kerosakan ini dibaiki tetapi nampaknya dia tidak boleh buat keputusan.

"Nampaknya Azmin yang lebih berkuasa. Kalau Anwar sendiri tidak boleh beri keadilan kepada ahli-ahlinya sendiri bagaimana dia mahu memberi keadilan kepada rakyat? Saya sudah tidak boleh bekerja dengan orang ini," katanya pada sidang akhbar di sini, hari ini.

Gobalakrishnan sebelum ini lantang mengkritik kepimpinan PKR terutama melalui laman sosial Twitter miliknya termasuk mendakwa Anwar dan Azmin sebagai pemimpin tidak demokratik selain terlibat dalam rasuah. PKR awal bulan lalu juga mengemukakan surat tunjuk sebab atas tindakan Gobalakrishnan mengkritik kepimpinan tertinggi parti.

Gobalakrishnan yang juga bekas Setiausaha Pemuda MIC berkata, beliau selepas ini akan bergerak sebagai Ahli Parlimen Bebas sambil menegaskan tidak memihak atau menyertai mana-mana parti dalam Barisan Nasional (BN). Menurutnya, beliau dan beberapa rakannya akan menggerakkan sebuah pertubuhan bukan kerajaan (NGO) baru yang bermatlamat membantu masyarakat India khususnya di sekitar kawasan Padang Serai.

Beliau turut menyatakan hasrat untuk bertanding mempertahankan kerusi Parlimen Padang Serai pada pilihan raya umum akan datang dan bersedia berdepan mana-mana calon sama ada daripada BN atau pakatan pembangkang.

Ditanya sama ada beliau sudah menghantar surat peletakan jawatannya secara rasmi kepada parti, Gobalakrishnan berkata: "Sidang akhbar ini bagi saya sudah cukup rasmi, mereka akan tahu juga." Menjawab pertanyaan mengenai kemungkinan wujud persepsi bahawa beliau 'dibeli' untuk meletak jawatan dan menyertai BN, bekas Ketua Cabang PKR Padang Serai itu menegaskan ia tidak berlaku.

"Tidak, tetapi anda (pemberita) boleh tanya Anwar sama ada Gobalakrishnan orang yang boleh 'dibeli' atau tidak," katanya. Gobalakrishnan juga memberitahu, beliau tidak akan menghantar sebarang permohonan rasmi berhubung kedudukan kerusinya dalam Dewan Rakyat.

"Saya lebih selesa duduk di kerusi yang ada sekarang. Ia dekat dengan tempat Anwar duduk, biarlah saya di situ supaya mudah saya bertanya soalan kepadanya di dalam Dewan kelak," katanya.

Mengulas lanjut, Gobalakrishan berkata, beliau meninggalkan MIC dan menyertai PKR pada 1999 kerana dijemput oleh Anwar kononnya untuk membantu masyarakat India tetapi ia sekadar perjuangan untuk kepentingan dirinya sendiri. Sebaliknya, kata beliau, gaya kepimpinan Anwar menyebabkan masyarakat India kini berpecah-belah dan perkara sama dilakukan terhadap penduduk bumiputera di Sabah dan Sarawak.

"Anwar melakukan pendekatan 'pecah dan perintah' dan kita boleh lihat bagaimana kepimpinan masyarakat Kadazan di Sabah dan Dayak di Sarawak berpecah-belah akibat pemilihan yang tidak demokratik. "PKR sebenarnya ada peluang di Sabah tetapi peluang itu dirosakkan kerana Anwar mahu meletakkan orang Azmin di sana dan ini tidak membawa kebaikan kepada parti," jelasnya.

Kota Damansara: Konstabel didakwa Cuba Buat Tuduhan Palsu

http://www.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2011&dt=0129&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Jenayah&pg=je_04.htm

Konstabel didakwa cuba buat tuduhan palsu

PETALING JAYA 28 Jan. - Selepas menghadapi tuduhan mencederakan seorang ahli perniagaan, seorang konstabel hari ini didakwa di Mahkamah Majistret di sini atas dua tuduhan cuba mendatangkan bencana kepada mangsa dengan membuat tuduhan palsu terhadapnya.

Norzali Rosle, 25, bagaimanapun mengaku tidak bersalah selepas kedua-dua tuduhan tersebut dibacakan kepadanya di hadapan Majistret Nor Afidah Idris. Terdahulu, sebelum pertuduhan dibacakan, peguam bela, Suraj Singh memohon waran tangkap yang dikeluarkan ke atas anak guamnya pada Rabu lalu dibatalkan kerana Norzali telah menyerah diri sebaik sahaja membaca mengenai 'kehilangannya' di akhbar.

Tertuduh sepatutnya dituduh di mahkamah pada hari tersebut tetapi pendakwaan tidak dapat diteruskan selepas anggota polis itu tidak hadir dan gagal dikesan oleh pihak berkuasa. Mengikut pertuduhan, dia didakwa hendak menyebabkan bencana ke atas Chia Buang Hing, 35, dengan membuat tuduhan palsu ke atasnya pukul 2.01 pagi, 19 Disember tahun lalu di Balai Polis Kota Damansara di sini.

Tuduhan-tuduhan palsu yang dikatakan hendak dikenakan ke atas ahli perniagaan tersebut adalah dakwaan memiliki heroin seberat 0.01 gram dan senjata berbahaya iaitu sebilah parang. Pertuduhan dikemukakan mengikut Seksyen 211 Kanun Keseksaan yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara maksimum dua tahun atau denda atau kedua-duanya.

Pendakwaan dikendalikan oleh Timbalan-Timbalan Pendakwa Raya, Amirah Mohamed Yusoff dan Izazi Muhamedin.

Nor Afidah kemudian membenarkan tertuduh dibebaskan dengan jaminan RM2,200 beserta dua penjamin sementara menunggu sebutan semula kes pada 14 Februari ini.

Pada 11 Januari lalu, Norzali bersama Mohd. Azwan Hassan, Ahmad Saifullah Osan dan Alizulhafiz Abdul Ghafar; kesemuanya berpangkat konstabel, didakwa dengan sengaja menyebabkan kecederaan ke atas Buang Hing di balai polis yang sama di antara pukul 12.30 tengah malam dan 3 pagi, 19 Disember lalu.

Mohd. Azwan dan Norzali masing-masing turut menghadapi satu lagi pertuduhan yang sama terhadap mangsa tersebut di Jalan PJU 3/15, Persiaran Tropicana, Kota Damansara di sini pada pukul 11.30 malam antara 18 hingga 19 Disember tahun lalu.

Mereka didakwa mengikut Seksyen 323 Kanun Keseksaan yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara setahun atau maksimum denda RM2,000 atau kedua-duanya. Ketua Balai Polis Kota Damansara, Lans Koperal Mahadi Adam turut mengaku tidak bersalah atas tuduhan mengingkari arahan undang-undang mengikut Seksyen 20(3) Akta Polis 1967 kerana sebagai penjawat awam menyebabkan kecederaan terhadap Buang Hing. Dia didakwa melakukan perbuatan itu di Balai Polis Kota Damansara antara pukul 12.30 tengah malam dan 3 pagi, 19 Disember tahun lalu mengikut Seksyen 166 Kanun Keseksaan. Jika sabit kesalahan, Mahadi boleh dihukum penjara maksimum setahun atau denda atau kedua-duanya.

Dr Kermit Gosnell: Made in the USA !

Comment:

And they said that everthing in the USA is the best, the so-called doctor is a devil in human skin. Its crime on woman, on the new born, its medical malpractises at the lowest level, its 'dirty' money, how worst can all that be... and its made in the USA!!

Do the authorities ever do spotchecks on these private clinics and hospitals?! Where are the so-called 'standard operating procedures', or 'quality assurance practises', or 'medical professional practises' ??? More questions need to be answer by the authority ! The door is NOT close yet!

Doctor's arrest leads cops to abortion 'house of horrors'
Yahoo!7 January 21, 2011, 1:09 pm

A man has been arrested and charged with the murder of a 41-year-old pregnant woman and seven newborn babies in an abortion clinic deemed a 'house of horrors' by prosecutors. A judge has withheld bail for Dr Kermit Gosnell, 69, who has allegedly made millions of dollars over thirty years performing illegal abortions at a Philadelphia clinic that served mostly low-income minority women.

According to a grand jury report, the Women's Medical Society was the "go-to" place for women wanting illegal abortions or for people seeking "no-questions-asked" prescription drugs.

In early 2010 authorities investigating drug-related complaints at the clinic say they uncovered a squalid, barbaric "house of horrors" where "botched", "illegal" abortions were conducted. An attorney alleges seven babies born alive in the sixth, seventh and eighth months of their mothers' pregnancies were killed when scissors were used to cut their spinal cords.

Gosnell is also accused of routinely inducing labor in patients in their second and third trimesters rather than perform risky late-term abortions, sometimes resulting in live births. In these cases, Gosnell and his staffers allegedly killed the babies by stabbing their necks with scissors to sever their spinal cords and sometimes suctioned their skulls.

The conditions of the clinic have been described as deplorable. According to a criminal complaint, shelves in the clinics were lined with bags and bottles holding aborted fetuses. Severed feet were said to be kept for no medical purpose. Gosnell is accused of murdering 41-year-old patient Karnamaya Mongar. Reports say Mongar died November 20, 2009, after overdosing on anesthetics prescribed by the doctor.

Born in Bhutan, Mongar had spent 18 years living in a bamboo hut in a Nepalese refugee camp before going to the United States in July 2009 as part of a humanitarian resettlement program, reports say. The mother of four and grandmother of one was 19 weeks into her pregnancy when, after getting a referral from a Washington, D.C., medical clinic, she went to Gosnell's practice.

Reports say that a high school student was employed at the clinic, paid $8.50 an hour to operate an ultrasound machine, administer anesthesia and diagnose sexually transmitted diseases.

Investigators say Gosnell made thousands of dollars a night, mostly in cash, for a few hours of work performing abortions. Nine of Gosnell's employees have also been charged, four with murder. None had any medical training. Gosnell, who is not a registered obstetrician or gynecologist has been charged with eight counts of murder and is next scheduled to appear in court on February 9.

Vodafone and Compliants

Comment:

'Customer is King'... IF and when corporations FAIL to understand that, that means its the downfall of their multi-million (billion and trillion) dollars business. Its that simple really!

So how do corporation understand/appreciate customers?

1- By making them King/Queen, take their complaints seriously, if they are satisfied, they will promote you, by word of mouth, to their friends and relatives. BUT if they don't like you, they will make it their 'crusade' to bring the bad news around to their friends, relatives and strangers like a fireball.

2- Never try to 'short-change' (below average service received, for the amount of money paid) the customer, even for once! The customer will keep it to their hearts, and will spell it all out in due time... Its like a 'time'bomb' ready to exploit.

3- Take customers 'feedbacks' like its coming from the top (e.g. the CEO, CIO, Manager). IF customers felt that their advises (feedbacks) are not taken seriously, they will backfire the large corporation, like a loose canon gun. Most 'unsuccessful' companies does not even have a 'feedback' box, let alone, taking the advises from their good customers. Thats why they don't grow big, and even fail.

The large corporation did not even realises that the advises from their customers are more 'trustworthy' than that of their managers or supervisors, who only reported 'good news' to the big bosses.

And what makes it more fustrating is when the large corporations 'outsources' their Online Services and/or Complaint Unit to third party (who may be situated in another country), who careless about the success or failure of these corporation, as long as they get their salaries. Most of the time, customers felt cheated when these online outsources operators (so-called 'Customer Service Representatives'/CSR) do not get the complaint of the customers right, and simply dismissed the customers after a few minutes. Hence, customers have no way to turn to - except to their local governors for complaints (and hence, make the personal issues, a national issues).

Vodafone responds to damning report

AAP January 21, 2011, 10:09 am


Vodafone says it's working hard to improve its service following a damning report that outlined thousands of complaints ranging from patchy network coverage to poor customer service. The telco giant on Friday responded to the 30-page report by Vodafail.com, which summarises accounts by 12,000 unhappy Vodafone customers.

The Vodafail report was submitted to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) on Friday.

It analyses thousands of similar stories from customers about hours spent on hold to Vodafone's call centre trying to make a complaint about its 3G network issues, including frequent call dropouts and delayed receipt of voicemail and text messages.

Customers said they were fobbed off by Vodafone Customer Service Representatives who said there weren't any known network issues and the problems they were experiencing were related to their handset or SIM card. In most cases suggestions to reboot the phone or get a new SIM card didn't solve the problem.

The report claims Vodafone seemed indifferent and failed to properly handle complaints.

Kidnapped US Baby

Kidnapped US baby, now a woman, returns

AAP January 21, 2011, 5:35 am

A woman who was kidnapped as a infant 23 years ago says finding her real mother "felt like a dream". "I'm so happy. At the same time, it's a funny feeling because everything's brand new. It's like being born again," said the woman, who was named Carlina White by her parents but was raised in Connecticut under the name, Nejdra Nance.

The 19-day-old baby Carlina was kidnapped in 1987 after her worried parents took her to Harlem Hospital with a fever. A woman who was dressed as a nurse abducted the baby. No suspect was ever arrested.

Carlina's distraught parents, Joy White and Carl Tyson, feared they would never see their daughter again. Carlina, or Nejdra, was raised by an abusive drug addict, she told the New York Post. She said she had long suspected she wasn't the woman's real daughter.

When she got pregnant herself at 16, she asked her mother for a birth certificate so she could get prenatal care. Her mother could not provide one. She gave birth to a daughter who is now six, and when she recently moved on her own to Atlanta, Georgia, she decided to seek out her birth parents.

The Center for Missing and Exploited Children helped her connect the dots. Then the centre contacted Joy White. "We may have found your daughter," Joy White said the caller told her. DNA tests confirmed Nejdra was Carlina. Mother and daughter were reunited on Saturday; they were in a Manhattan hotel on Thursday. The Post interviewed them at the hotel on Wednesday. "I'm sitting here and I'm in a daze, thinking, 'Is this for real?'

"I missed the last 23 years of her life. I have to take it all in, for now just take it day by day," Joy White told the newspaper.Carlina White said: "I just never gave up on finding my real mother. I just kept on pushing."

Mahkamah Batal Saman Um Hafilda !

http://www.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2011&dt=0414&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Mahkamah&pg=ma_03.htm

(14 April 2011)

Mahkamah BATAL Saman Ummi Hafilda

KUALA LUMPUR 13 April – Mahkamah Tinggi hari ini membatalkan saman RM100 juta yang dikemukakan oleh Ummi Hafilda Ali terhadap ahli perniagaan, Baginda Minda dan penerbit portal berita, Mkini Dotcom Sdn. Bhd. atas dakwaan menyiarkan artikel berunsur fitnah dan menjatuhkan maruahnya.

Hakim Datin Zabariah Mohd. Yusof memutuskan demikian setelah peguam kesemua pihak yang terlibat tidak hadir ketika pengurusan kes buat pertama kali didengar di kamar beliau.

Pada 17 Mac lalu, Ummi Hafilda, 43, selaku plaintif memfailkan saman terhadap Nor Azman Abdullah @ Baginda Minda dan penerbit portal berita di Internet itu, Mkini Dotcom Sdn. Bhd. masing-masing sebagai defendan pertama dan kedua. Dalam pernyataan tuntutan, Ummi Hafilda mendakwa, Baginda Minda telah memberikan kenyataan sindiran (innuendo) yang merujuk kepada dirinya pada sidang akhbar yang diadakan di lobi Bangunan Parlimen pada 15 Mac lalu.

Menurutnya, ayat-ayat fitnah yang diucapkan oleh Baginda Minda membawa maksud bahawa plaintif seorang ahli perniagaan yang terdesak untuk mendapatkan peluang perniagaan, seorang wanita yang tidak bermoral, tidak jujur, pembohong dan tidak boleh dipercayai.

Debat Dengan Saya Dulu - UHafilda

Komen:

10 tahun lalu, saya kesian dan kagum dengan kebolehan Anwar, tetapi kini persepsi saya sudah tukar, kini saya nampak Anwar sebagai 'opportunist' yang akan menghancurkan negara demi perjuangan politik yg tidak 'bersih.' Anwar kini takut akan bayang-bayang UMNO, dan bekas ahli PKR, dan individu tertentu, yg akan menjatuhkan Anwar, atau menyebabkan Anwar dimasukkan semula kedlm penjara, jikalau Anwar tidak mendapat/mencapai/menguasai kuasa politik tertinggi negara.

Anwar pernah dimasukkan ke dlm penjara, kini Anwar berjanji yg dia tidak akan dimasukkan ke dlm penjara lagi, itu lah tindak-tanduknya (dan strategi Anwar) nampak mcm drastik dan desperado. Lihatlah laporan media-massa, dan nilai lah sendiri (jikalau anda bukan buta).

Dlm Islam pun, disuruh kita menyokong pemimpin yang bersih dan telus!

Cara Hafilda pun saya tidak suka, dia guna 'seks' (salah laku seks) sebagai laluan utk menjatuhkan orang, dia pun nampak mcm tak bersih, orang mcm dia pun perlu dijaga.

Debat dengan saya dulu – Ummi Hafilda

UMMI Hafilda Ali menunjukkan antara dokumen yang akan dijadikan bukti dalam kes saman yang akan difailkan di mahkamah pada sidang akhbar di USJ, Subang Jaya, Selangor, semalam. – utusan/Abdul Razak Latif

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KUALA LUMPUR 13 Jan. – Ummi Hafilda Ali mencabar Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim untuk berdebat dengannya terlebih dahulu berhubung kebenaran kes salah laku seks beliau sebelum mencabar pihak lain. Katanya, Anwar tidak perlu berdebat dengan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak tentang Pelan 100 Hari yang dicadangkan pakatan pembangkang kerana ia tidak memberi sebarang faedah.

“Saya cabar Anwar berdebat dengan saya. Saya juga cabar Azmin Ali untuk berdebat dengan saya sebelum berdebat dengan Perdana Menteri,” katanya pada sidang akhbar di sini hari ini. Turut hadir pada sidang akhbar itu ialah penasihat undang-undang Ummi Hafilda, Mohd. Khairul Azam Abd. Aziz.

Ummi Hafilda yang pernah menjadi saksi penting kes liwat Anwar pada 1998 turut mencabar Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) itu dan Azmin melakukan sumpah laknat bagi membuktikan mereka tidak terbabit dalam segala kes salah laku seks yang didedahkannya ketika itu

“Saya juga mencabar Anwar masuk ke mana-mana masjid bagi membuat sumpah laknat untuk menafikan segala dakwaan yang dikemukakan saya sebelum ini jika betul dia tidak terbabit dengan perbuatan itu,” katanya.

Ummi Hafilda juga dalam pada itu bersumpah dia tidak pernah menerima sebarang bayaran atau upah daripada bekas Perdana Menteri, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad atau kerajaan ekoran pendedahan tentang salah laku Anwar ketika itu.

“Saya bersumpah dengan nama Allah bahawa saya tidak pernah menerima walau satu sen pun upah ketika itu. Jika saya berbohong maka saya akan dilaknat. Ummi Hafilda berkata, dia akan mengemukakan semua bukti penting berhubung perilaku Anwar dan yang lain di mahkamah melalui saman yang akan difailkan nanti.

Sebelum ini, Ummi Hafilda menyatakan akan memfailkan saman berjumlah RM700 juta terhadap Anwar, Azmin, Wan Azizah, peguam Karpal Singh dan parti Pas kerana salah laku mereka terhadapnya pada 1997. Daripada jumlah itu, saman terhadap Anwar berjumlah RM300 juta dibuat atas dakwaan salah guna kuasa selaku Timbalan Perdana Menteri pada 1997 yang mengarahkan dia ditangkap dan didera bagi mendapatkan pengakuan palsu berhubung skandal seks.

Selain itu, Ummi Hafilda bakal memfailkan saman berjumlah RM200 juta terhadap Karpal, RM100 juta terhadap Wan Azizah dan RM100 juta lagi terhadap Pas. Dalam pada itu, dia juga bercadang menjelajah ke seluruh negara bagi menerangkan kepada rakyat berhubung salah laku Anwar dan konco-konconya. “Tidak ada sebab untuk saya takut. Malah saya tahu Anwar memang takut kepada saya sebab itu dia tidak menyaman apabila saya menulis dalam blog mengenai segala yang dia buat,” katanya.

Anwar thought that he was safe when he took Azmin Ali as his 'righthand man', hence avoiding Hafilda legal sue. How wrong Anwar thought was.

IF this is not for the political benefit of Hafilda, then what is?! (See news below).

Sister against brother? Ummi Hafilda to campaign for BN in next polls!

By Adib Zalkapli

PETALING JAYA, Jan 13 — Ummi Hafilda Ali, a key witness in Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s first sodomy trial, vowed today to actively campaign for Barisan Nasional (BN) in the next general election. Ummi claimed that her presence in BN’s campaign would prevent a repeat of Election 2008 when the coalition lost its customary two-thirds parliamentary majority for the first time.

“If anyone is willing to invite me, I will go. Some may say Anwar is a great orator but I know he is afraid of me,” she said at a press conference here. Prior to Election 2008, the sister of PKR deputy president Azmin Ali was active in addressing Umno-organised rallies where she related her experience in exposing Anwar’s alleged sexual misconduct to former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Anwar was later convicted for abuse of power and sodomy and was released in 2004 after the sodomy conviction was overturned by the Federal Court, but is currently on trial for allegedly sodomising his former aide in 2008.

Ummi resurfaced recently and appeared on the front page of Umno-owned Utusan Malaysia last month where she urged Azmin to repent. “In the 12th general election, when I did not take part in the campaign, you could see how arrogant Anwar was when spreading lies, because of his lies we lost five states to the opposition,” Ummi said.

“If I go around the country campaigning that will be the end of Anwar because I know his secrets,” she added. She stressed that even without invitation from Umno she would still proceed with her nationwide tour.

“I have my strategy, but I understand if the government does not want to be involved as they may be tired of the accusation by Anwar that the government has been involved in a conspiracy against him,” said Ummi, who claims to be an Umno member.

“But for me I have no reason to be afraid, in fact I’m challenging him for a debate, there is no need for him to debate with the prime minister,” she added, referring to Anwar’s challenge to Najib for a debate on the national economy.

She is also planning to file several lawsuits against Pakatan Rakyat (PR) leaders for allegedly defaming her and for attempting to cover up Anwar’s alleged crime. She said she has been in discussion with her lawyer to sue Anwar, his lawyer Karpal Singh, PAS central committee member Mohamad Sabu and PKR president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Ismail. – The Malaysian Insider
