Jangan tunggu lama2 kat RnR nanti didenda PLUS...

PLUS kenakan denda jika melepak 
lebih 1 jam setengah di RnR...

Seorang pengguna Lebuhraya PLUS yang menggunakan perkhidmatan itu di sekitar Gurun menuju ke Pendang mendakwa dikenakan denda ketika keluar dari tol dengan alasan beliau berada lebih 1 jam setengah di kawasan Rehat dan Rawat (RNR).

Damar Wulan melalui akaun facebook miliknya mendakwa terpaksa membayar RM3.00 kadar bayaran tol, beserta tambahan RM9.40 sebagai denda kerana tinggal melebihi 1 jam setengah di RNR Gurun, Kedah.

Beliau turut mengirimkan resit denda bayaran tunai yang dikenakan terhadapnya dalam tulisannya di facebook.

Menurutnya lagi, pihak PLUS memberikan alasan jika seorang pengguna tinggal lama di kawasan RNR, mereka mengesyaki penipuan dilakukan oleh pengguna lebuhraya.

Damar mendakwa telah menghubungi talian Hotline PLUS 1800880000 namun tiada jawapan pasti diberikan. 

Beliau turut mempersoalkan mengapa tidak diletakkan papan tanda amaran tidak dibenarkan berehat melebihi 1.5 jam di kawasan RNR sebagai amaran awal kepada pengguna lebuhraya.

Portal Utusan Malaysia sebelum ini (25 Jan 2005) pernah melaporkan, tindakan PLUS Expressway Berhad (PLUS) mengenakan denda kepada pengguna yang didakwa berada di Lebuhraya Utara Selatan melebihi had waktu yang munasabah adalah salah dari segi undang-undang.

Memetik kenyataan Khutubul Zaman, Pengerusi Majlis Peguam pengendali lebuhraya tidak mempunyai kuasa dari segi undang-undang negara untuk berbuat demikian.

"Kuasa untuk mengenakan denda atau kompaun memerlukan peruntukan undang-undang yang diluluskan di parlimen, Dewan Undangan Negeri atau undang-undang kecil di bawah mana-mana akta" katannya. — EdisiRakyat

Pasai apa selepas 3 minggu baru mahu siasat ugutan ‘parang terbang’ Jamal Tongkoi...

Tahap kredibiliti dan profesionalisme Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) berisiko tergugat sekiranya tiada sebarang tindakan drastik mahupun hukuman dikenakan ke atas provokasi melampau pemimpin samseng UMNO, Datuk Jamal Yunos.

Jamal didakwa menulis satu kemas kini berbunyi: “Saya berjanji Tragedi 13 MAY akan berulang dan PARANG TERBANG akan terjadi jika BERSIh 5 dibuat pada masa, tarikh dan tempat yang sama dengan perhimpunan #BERSIH5 yang dijadualkan pada 19 November ini. “Hidup Melayu!”

Kelmarin, Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar mengarahkan supaya anggotanya menjalankan siasatan ke atas Jamal ekoran kenyataan berkenaan.

Bagaimanapun, Ketua UMNO Bahagian Sungai Besar itu menafikannya, malah mendakwa bahawa kononnya akaun laman sosialnya itu dipalsukan oleh pasukan yang diupah Setiausaha Agung DAP, Lim Guan Eng.

Guan Eng yang juga merupakan Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang menafikan sekeras-kerasnya dakwaan itu, malah mengingatkan Jamal supaya tidak terus menerus mengaitkan dirinya dengan fitnah berkenaan.

Namun, apa yang lebih menghairankan, menurut Ketua Parlimen DAP, Lim Kit Siang kemas kini Facebook itu disiarkan pada 21 September yang lalu, tetapi hanya kira-kira tiga minggu selepas itu barulah Khalid mengarahkan polis untuk melakukan siasatan.

“Jika penganjur BERSIH 5 atau pemimpin Pakatan Harapan yang membuat kemas kini Facebook seumpama itu, tidak kira sama ada ia adalah palsu atau sebaliknya, adakah pihak polis dan pihak berkuasa cepat atau terlambat selama hampir tiga minggu sebelum bersedia untuk mengambil tindakan?” soalnya dalam satu kenyataan.

Beliau yang juga Ahli Parlimen Gelang Patah turut mempersoalkan niat sebenar Jamal menunding jari kepada DAP berhubung kemas kini berkenaan yang didakwa bertujuan mengalihkan perhatian masyarakat terhadap isu sebenar – budaya samseng UMNO.

Justeru katanya, kredibiliti dan profesionalisme polis menghadapi risiko tergugat ekoran kejadian yang ditimbulkan samseng UMNO itu.

“Bolehkah pihak polis menebus reputasi profesional dengan bertindak pantas menghentikan tindakan samseng dan tidak mematuhi undang-undang yang dicetuskan gerombolan Baju Merah UMNO?” soalnya.

Sabtu lalu, samseng-samseng UMNO berbaju merah seperti yang dilaporkan media bertindak mengepung dan melemparkan telur ke arah dua peserta BERSIH bermotosikal di Sabak Bernam, selain membuat sekatan jalan bagi menghalang Konvoi Bersih 5 yang menuju Kuala Lumpur pada 19 November nanti. – Roketkini.com

How many accounts, 
how much money does Najib have...

A DAP leader is wondering how many bank accounts does Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak have, and how much money are in them.

Party acting chairperson Tan Kok Wai raised this issue following Sarawak Report's latest allegation that RM3.4 million in cash was deposited into Najib's accounts in early 2015.

Tan said the exact amount of Najib's wealth was still unknown, and likened it to the Sabah Water Department corruption case, where the actual amount involved is continuously increasing.

"How much has not been revealed by Sarawak Report? How much of Najib's unknown funds? Najib should offer an explanation (to the people)," he told reporters in Kuala Lumpur.

Tan said the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) investigation into the 'Ops Water' probe in Sabah only saw middle-level public servants arrested.

"PM, cabinet members, deputy ministers, menteri besar, chief ministers, state executive councillors – are they all 'clean'? This is the biggest question," he added.

PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar, who was also present, concurred.

She claimed the MACC was only aiming for the "small fish", but letting the "big fish" go free.

Nurul said MACC should immediately look into Sarawak Report's allegations if the graft-buster was indeed independent, trustworthy and accountable.

Sarawak Report had claimed that cash deposits totalling RM3.4 million were made into two Ambank accounts purportedly belonging to Najib in February and March 2015.

Citing alleged leaks by investigators, the website claimed the accounts were managed by SRC International Sdn Bhd former managing director Nik Faisal Ariff Kamil.

Nik Faisal was the signatory for the accounts, Sarawak Report alleged in an email.

Previously, it was reported that SRC's transaction to the prime minister's accounts could total RM74 million.

Najib has repeatedly denied abusing public funds for personal gain.

Sarawak Report’s London-based editor Claire Rewcastle-Brown has been accused of being part of a conspiracy to topple the prime minister, but she has denied this. - mk

Nasrudin yet to pay Guan Eng RM10k owed...

PAS Information chief Nasrudin Hassan has yet to comply with the Penang High Court's order that he pays Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng RM10,000 in costs for posting an offending article on Facebook.

This is according to Lim's special legal officer Raja Syarafina Raja Shuib, who said three months have passed since the High Court in Penang issued the order.

"This order from the honourable High Court clearly states that the defendant (Nasrudin) must pay costs, to prove that he has regretted making baseless claims against the chief minister, and that he would withdraw the article," Raja Syarafina said.

"Failure or refusal to pay the amount, as instructed by the court, shows a contempt of court," she added in a statement today.

Malaysiakini has contacted Nasrudin, and is awaiting the Termeloh MP's response.

Lim filed a defamation suit against Nasrudin on Nasrudin's Facebook post, but withdrew it after both parties agreed to resolve the matter in the High Court in Penang on Jan 18.

Nasrudin agreed to express his regret in court for the article which was posted on his Facebook page on Aug 6, 2014.

He also agreed to retract the article and pay RM10,000 to Lim to cover legal costs.

The case involved his Facebook posting titled ‘Apa Beza Kidex dan Terowong Pulau Pinang’ (What is the difference between the Kinrara-Damansara Expressway and Penang undersea tunnel).

Nasrudin criticised opposition supporters who condemned former Selangor menteri besar Khalid Ibrahim for the Kidex project but did not take Lim to task for the proposed Penang undersea tunnel, which is to link Gurney Drive to mainland Butterworth.

Nasrudin had claimed that the tunnel project was awarded based on direct negotiations but Lim insisted that it was an open tender based on a Request for Proposal exercise.

"We only managed to extract the order from the High Court on Sept 14. Nasrudin and his lawyer were notified about it via a registered post on Sept 19," Raja Syarafina said.- mk

Tak bayar pampasan, Lim arah tindakan baru pada Nasrudin

Penang People Front...

The obscure but newly-minted Penang Front Party's plan to have a casino on the island has been smacked by Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng.

Lim said the party, with Umno's Padang Besar MP Zahidi Zainul Abidin as an adviser and supported by some 80 NGOs, has suggested a proposal which is uncalled for.

"Is this a new policy by Umno, to have casinos in the state?" Lim asked at a press conference in Komtar today.

"Do they want Penang to be like Macau? This is not our policy, " Lim added.

Lim was referring to a report in a Malay language daily which claimed that the new party, which has obtained approval of the Registrar of Societies, planned to apply for a licence from the federal government to run a casino. - mk

Anonymous_1375701728 - Strange that a suggestion to start a casino comes from a party whose advisor is an UMNO member. Thought gambling is prohibited in Islam. What say you PAS. Sokongkah?

Are you affected by redelineation?

cheers.
