HIMPUN : does Islam need anti-apostasy law to keep believers from leaving?
HIMPUN: The Anti-apostasy Rally this Saturday 22/10/2011
The organizers has got permit to gather a million Muslim in Shah Alam Stadium to preserve the sanctity of Islam.
The intention is to champion Islam and the Malay race.
Nik Aziz and Anwar had asked members of PAS and Keadilan not to support the rally.
However Nik Aziz' s son has been reported to support it.
Many are puzzled to the logic how the call to gather a million of the faithful can preserve the sanctity of Islam.
How the Anti-apostasy rally will reduce the believers from the freedom of their choice what they want to believe.
Is there no freedom for the Malays to believe any other belief of their choice?
Why are they afraid?
Are they afraid that once there is no restriction all the Muslims will leave Islam?
Have they got no confidence in Islam to keep their flock?
We often hear that there is no compulsion in Islam. Is that true?

Latest news on Himpun Anti-apostasy Rally
I think that that they will not be able to gather a fraction of the million!
Why? See in Bersih 2.0 how many could Khairy brought...a few. What about the self proclaimed general, Ibrahim of Perkasa...sleeping...!
Nik Aziz's son support the rally. And some in Pakatan even after Nik Aziz and Anwar Ibrahim called their members not to support the rally.
This rally apparently have been endorsed by the power to be...see the permit for the rally, it was immediate! In contrast Bersih 2.0 did not get it even after the Agong intervention. Now you can see who is behind? Who has such a wisdom to unite the Muslims to support their political end.
We will wait for the latest as news pour in. Will keep you posted!

Is the Demise of Umno/BN Government imminent?
Is the demise of Umno/BN Government imminent?
Has BN lost the masses? Does the majority of the people want a change in Malaysia? Are the people happy with the way Umno/BN are governing the nation?
Most people I randomly surveyed want a change. Too many things are going wrong like too much water vapor is gathering as dark cloud with thunder and lightning that a torrent is imminent like the coming 13 GE, which to me will be held before this year is over!
There were so much plundering in the past 54 years under the hegemony of Umno. In the book Malaysian Maverick by Barry Wain revealed that as much as RM100billion was burned on wasteful grand projects, and the corruption it engendered. Even after the 2008 Election BN lost the 5 states, the Umno/BN government continued to go on it's old way of governing namely the most serious mistake is not having open tender for all the Government projects. Apparently the corruption from the highest to the lowest level still go on like nobody business.
This brings me to the wealth of our nation top money generating company- Petronas. I really don't understand how Petronas can be treated by Umno as it's own private company. The only reason I see is that of the over powering government of Umno without any check and balance.
There are too many things that are not right in this country so much so that Tengku Razaleigh Hamza from Umno had even appeared in the Undilah music video promoting to vote which disappeared from government media soon after the initial broadcast was done. This must be due to the truth being told when KuLi echoed that there are too many things that are wrong in this country.
The foremost in the Chinese mind is the death of Teoh Beng Hock. How a young man went in to be questioned by MACCon a minor case of misuse of a mere RM2000 by his political boss but instead he came out as a corpse. There are so much iniquities in MACC that Ahmad Sarbani Mohamad soon after that also died in a similar way as Teoh Beng Hock.
On the ground, people are concern with bread and butter. Inflation has sky rocketed. Even for me personally, I felt that electricity bill, petrol bill and food bill has gone up in a frightening way, the ordinary folks must be feeling it badly.
Worst of all since 2008 people began to observe the Pakatan states to see how well they have done. This is going to be a killer for Umno/BN in the ballot box.
In the recent Budget, the goodies Najib threw out are seen as small change to beggars in contrast to the wealth wasted in corruption by Umno/BN. it was reported by alternative media as Mindless Budget by giving money but have no policy changes to bring in long lasting progress.
Overall Umno/BN has been seen to have too little changes, too late like a man with a diabetic foot if not managed fast enough, will not only lose his leg but may end up losing his life. This fate, I am afraid will befall Umno/BN.

Is God so weak that He needs man to help? Himpun anti- apostasy rally
Ridiculous logic only can comes from the pit of hell?
I heard that there will be a big rally at Shah Alam stadium on 22 October, Saturday 2PM organized by Perkida, Perkasa etc.
Who is the man that thinks he has the mandate from heaven/hell to take away the inherent right of us all the freedom to choose who/what to believe! Who is he that comes out with the idea to gather the masses to demonstrate against the freedom to change one's religious belief? Will the master mind stand up? What is the end result he wants to see? What is his motive?
God the creator gives us the most precious gift of freedom. Without it we are all robot without choice. A programmed restricted man without a free will is not man but robot.
This mentality is not unusual among us who have been in Malaysia or many Middle East countries. It presents to us as illogical, ridiculous mandate of heaven/hell to force people to obey their religious teaching. It comes in the form of religious policing like you must fast in the month of Ramadan, you can't have proximity of physical interaction like holding hands with the opposite sex. It even tells you to cover up all your body parts when you are in public's view even the hair on your head when you are a female. Think of it, isn't it ridiculous? As though God/gods need the self appointed leaders to enforce His/their moral/religious code. Their god/gods appear to us as a weakling who will not be able to judge/punish his followers in due course needing help from puny man to enforce the rule and code.
Now the question is where this idea originate? From God? From heaven? From hell?

Postal vote
Postal vote
I was talking to my patient, she told me her navy-husband had retired.
" So, last time postal vote?"
"Yes, but never see the ballot paper!"
"Now, where?"
"Oh, now assigned to a DAP constituency as an ordinary voter."
Now we can see how the ruling elites has been manipulating, cheating and winning all the time for 54 years now.
No wonder, years ago, we stated 1 ringgit = 1 Singapore dollar. Now SD 1=RM2.4. RM 100 has left with 40 plus Sing. Dollar.
We have all the land, petroleum, oil palm, rubber, tin aTnd you name it.
What does Singapore has? No land, or a small dot of land on the map, no sand, not even water...has to buy from Malaysia the raw river water, but smart enough to process the water and sell back to Malaysia. You know lah, buy river water from us Malaysia cheap cheap, sell back to us drinking water must cost a lot more. Ah, stupid Malaysia....
Recently, Star reported that EC will be implementing postal vote for oversea Malaysian provided they are registered voters.
Can you see how they can manipulate? Let me say this, name sake, their propaganda in the controlled mass media They rule"demi untuk Negara..." Where got for the people... they do more for their own pockets and cronies. They have mastered nothing much except the arts of cheating. These are a den of thieves!

What can you do for you beloved nation?
The POWER is in the hand of the government. We mostly can’t do a thing to stop it from doing the things it wants.
I started my GP clinic practice for 20 years now only having to pay RM50.00 per year for a license to run a clinic.
Any doctor can do the same. It had been like this from the beginning.
In 2007, the government collected RM1500.00 for a license from every clinic. We could not fight against it. A fellow doctor somewhere in KL was imprisoned for 6 months because he did not comply to the regulation.
Recently, I need to pay for in addition yearly another RM100.00 license for psychotropic drugs use. Some of us especially me tried to protest and stop it. Any use?
Alas, just futile...our leader told me, “The power is in the government, they can do whatever they like...this is another porridge already cooked story”
What do you mean by porridge already cooked? “Nasi sudah jadi bubur”LAH!
I think what we as doctors experienced are just the tip of the iceberg. Many people from all walks of life will be able to write many stories how they have found the government wanting. Please write and send to me at: fortpin@gmail.com will publish it in my blog if you give me permission. TQ!
Many of us very diligently forward a lot of articles in internet and hand phone. Why? I think a lot of us are not happy with many things going on with the authority.
If you are one who likes to make Malaysia a better place for our future generations...Give yourself a break, come and join us and make a difference.

MIC chief Walkout threat
Please see the detail in the link below.
http://www.thesundaily.my/news/95876
MIC chief Palanivel who succeeded Sami Vellu after being made full cabinet minister in PM department yesterday, today, threatened to walkout of BN if other Indian based parties are allowed to join BN.
WHY?
The answer is obvious, MIC wants the monopoly. More power, more money. For whom? Of course for those in power. If not why so many are fighting so hard.
You can see that there are plenty of $$$...he handed out RM800,000 in allocation to his leaders in broad day light. Whose $? may be I should ash him, let me twit him afterward. Nowadays, no need to write long letter, just twit.( I twitted Minister of health on the death of a patient burned to death in KL Hospital. Hopefully, these wakil Rakyat reply.)
Palanivel in addition said if anyone can register 1000 new voters, he will reward them on a trip. Wow, so lucrative!(some of my team in Melaka, last year from August till October or September, can't remember exactly, every Sunday afternoon did voter registration at Dataran Pahlawan Mega Mall.
Mind you, they don't get a cent. Not only that, they have to pay their own parking, food, petrol.
Very costly, yes, very!in term of personal sacrifice...for a better Malaysia for our future generations.
Imagine give up your Sunday afternoon siesta...etc.
Let's come back to MIC chief, can get trip and...? WHY?
You know what LAH!

Understanding Schizophrenia: Signs, Symptoms, and Causes
Understanding Schizophrenia: Signs, Symptoms, and CausesI am saddened by what I read above.
I could imagine my sojourned when I worked in those days in the psychiatric wards. Some may use the phrase "god forsaken place". Deplorable conditions many years ago. Now, with all things, including medications and facilities, most patients can live a normal life.
For one to die in Kuala Lumpur Hospital is quite unthinkable.
Let us not be too quick to judge.
Let's wait for the authority to give us the report.
I cannot help, but wonder...even high profile case of death like Teoh Beng Hock doesn't seem to get logical, agreeable, reasonable answer, do you think we can get satisfactory answer from a "minor" case like a patient dying, worst when it is a Schizophrenic.
By the way, Schizophrenic is not a human being? Lesser one?
I hope all our hospitals can make sure no such thing especially burning of bed to recur.
May be I should call upon the minister of health to take care of this.

Woman leaves baby with couple
There must be many babies born in Malaysia who yet to find home. Why? I think, most of the time if the press does not high light the new, we will not know it. The problem with some mothers who are not ready to raise the babies themselves may not know how to go about locating the right people to have their babies adopted.
I am looking for a baby girl to adopt irrespective of race as long as she is a descendant of Adam, ha ha....
Serious, if you come across a baby need parental love do contact me.TQ!

I am saddened to know that the man who wants his name change to Aleesha Farhana after having undergone surgical sex change.
There are individuals who may be born with ambiguous sexual organs. They go through untold difficulties and struggles in a society like us to live a free life according to their choosing.
How my heart go out to individuals like this and especially the family members of the deceased.
I hope there will come a day Malaysia is mature and free enough to have room for them to live a free lifestyle of their choice. Just to hope is not good enough, let us put legs to our hope. Cheers fo a better Malaysia.

Would Jesus have marched? by Thomas Fann
Bersih 2.0 – Would Jesus Have Marched?
Dear John,
In your Facebook reference to Bersih 2.0, you said that you are glad the rally is over and you asked the question, "Is
this the Christian approach to do things? What will Jesus do?" I guess the sight of so-called “street battles” in our
capital city between protestors and the police are too distasteful to you and unbecoming behaviour for a follower of
Christ. Furthermore it looks too much like a revolt against a sitting government in which case it would be against the
words of Paul in Romans 13:1 that we must all submit to governing authorities.
In case you were not aware, I was there to support Bersih and what it stands for. Let me try to explain to you why I
went.
In doing voters' registration for the past year and a half, I have come across too many irregularities firsthand - people
who tried to register over and over again but failed for no reason, people who voted before but deregistered, again
for no reason. People in the same house but assigned to different constituencies, people who never registered but
found themselves registered in some Felda scheme they have never heard before. I can go on and on.
What about gerry-mandering and malapportionment of constituencies? BN strongholds, fewer voters per seat;
opposition strongholds, more voters per seat. E.g. Kapar 112K voters PKR; Putrajaya 6K voters BN. Generally, this
has been the pattern nationwide. Boundaries are modified after each election to reflect change in the voting
patterns. Infact, the way it is, even if the majority of people voted for opposition by 55% to 45%, BN will still form
the government. Is this fair?
What about election fraud? The abuse of postal votes where police and military personnel have to vote under
duress of being witnessed by their superiors and their votes are used to shore up key BN losing candidates. The
buying of votes is now part of the BN election strategic now, doesn’t mind that it is a clear violation of election rules.
Remember the famous "You help me, I help you" offer by the PM, not once but over and over again? He promised
and delivered that if you vote for his candidate today, he will personally sign the cheque for millions of ringgit
tomorrow, if not, don’t bother to come and collect. Is this right just because the PM does it? It is a known fact that
huge amount of money were used to buy votes at by-elections these past few years. Power outages during crucial
counting of ballots so that bags of ballots could be swapped are regular occurrences.
The fact that 4.3 million eligible M'sians are not registered as voters (about 1/3 of total eligible voters) when they
could be registered at a click of a mouse like in S'pore where every citizens automatically becomes registered on
their 21st birthday, is yet another concern. Yet, M'sians have to find out themselves how to register, find a place to
register, fill up a for in duplicate, submit it and crossing their fingers hoping that SPR would not reject them. They
won’t even be notify if they are registered or not, they have to go online to check on their own. Why should it be so
in this day and age of technological advancement? The problem is not the lack of technology or funds but the lack of
political will to want to register these unregistered voters. Could it be that these 4.3 million are mainly young voters
who are more open to change and are better informed than their parents?
There are many, many more issues as demanded by Bersih 2.0 but I won't go on.
For me, it is an issue of justice. There is a perversion of justice here. And believe me, the people who made up the
Bersih 2.0 committee are not thugs or unlearned people. They have tried for years to get the authorities to reform
our electoral system but to no avail. Taking to the streets for a peaceful demo is our constitutional right and that
only after all other avenues have been exhausted.
I was there. I saw with my own eyes how the PDRM assaulted ordinary men and women without provocation or
warning. The protestors were outstanding in their discipline – 50,000 over people and not a single property damage
reported, no littering because we picked up our own rubbish and put them in the trash can. There were no street
battles or unruly protestors provoking the police as portrayed by the government and the mainstream media.
Despite the continuous assault by the police with tear gas and water cannons, the people did not fight back. There
was no anger on the faces of the protestors, no fear, no despondency, just a quiet determination to be heard and for
our rights to be upheld. I salute these pakciks, makciks, aunties and uncles, the young generation who came out
despite the intimidation and unprecedented attempt by the authority to lock down an entire city. I am very proud to
counted amongst them.
As we marched together, one elderly Malay gentleman turned to me, looking into my Chinese eyes, he said in Malay
"This is the real 1Malaysia", I agreed and said it is. It is not a slogan, not a logo, not a jingle without any reality. It is
a walk. When people come together not to defend their own race or religion but to ask for their most fundamental
right to be respected, the right to justice and to be heard, we are one, for we are. When every now and then we
broke out into singing our national anthem, it was never more meaningful, especially when we came to the part
“Rakyat hidup bersatu dan maju” – The People live in unity and in progress. We are Malaysians, we are all God’s
creation, loved by Him.
For too long our nation has been divided when after fifty-three years of independence we should be more united
and integrated. I still remember those times before politicians put their dirty fingers into the cultural pot and
muddle it up, we were more 1Malaysia. There was no slogan or logo or PR firms to tell us how to be united but just
a human decency to respect and accept each other’s differences, be it religion, race or social standing. Most of my
best friends in school were people not of my own race and we never thought or talk in term of race or religion. We
were Malaysian.
But today, after 30 years of “engineering”, we are so polarised that we have formed our own little “ghettos”, cut off
from people not of our own race. We do not understand each other’s cultures, traditions, manners and customs like
we used to or we should. In many of us, there is a deep-seated suspicion, resentment, and some, even hatred of the
other races. We have forgotten that we are just people, who by divine providence, found ourselves sharing the
same homeland. This is OUR home.
That day, as I marched with my fellow Malaysians, it all came back to me – we are as we should be, just honest,
decent human beings who care for the future of this nation. I saw elderly pakciks and makciks being rudely spoken
to, roughly man-handled and some arrested for simply being there. Have we lost our decency that we have to
behave this way even if we are only discharging our duties? The protestors were peaceful but the provocateurs
were the police. Have they forgotten who pays for their monthly salaries and who chose the political masters they
are now serving? The very people they are now calling and treating as traitors, chasing them around like animals,
firing tear gas and water cannons on! We are the rakyat, as you are.
Coming back to your question, John, what would Jesus do? If Jesus were to be living in this country and in this time,
what would He have done? If he had known about the injustice done to the people through a flawed and corrupt
electoral system, would Jesus have kept quiet and looked away and perhaps plan to migrate to “greener pastures”?
If he had wanted to speak up but was told that he needed to apply for a permit and that permit was turned down,
would he have just shrugged his shoulders and said, “I tried”? Would Jesus have said, “But the Bible said I have to
submit to all governing authority, I can’t go against the government”? You know what. If Jesus had turned the other
cheek to all the wrongs and evil in his days and submitted to the governing authorities, He would probably have lived
to a ripe old age, gotten married and have children and grandchildren. So would all his disciples - Peter, Paul,
Stephen, James, and countless others, they would not have been killed by the governing authorities. Jesus was
framed by the politicians of his days, the Pharisees, accused of high treason and executed or as we would like to call
it, crucified. Most of the early disciples were martyred because they spoke up, that is, became a “security risk” to the
governing authorities. They refused to submit to their demands to be silent and they were executed.
But John, you may be saying, “But Jesus didn’t hold illegal rallies and go on street marches”. Well, he spoke to
thousands when he delivered the Sermon on the Mount and when He fed thousands with only two loaves and five
fish. And wherever He went, hundreds, if not thousands followed Him. But He has permit, you say. Well, we don’t
know if He has permit or not, though I doubt it. What if He needed to apply for permit and was not given? Would
He still have delivered the Sermon on the Mount and fed thousands? I’ve a feeling that Jesus would still have gone
ahead. What if in the middle of delivering the sermon, the governing authorities fired tear gas into the crowd and
charged at them with batons, turning an otherwise peaceful gathering into a riotous scene. Was Jesus to be blamed
though He offered no resistance to the police?
As a man, Jesus was a fire-brand speaker and a radical social reformer and He has asked us to follow in His footsteps.
You are right to ask, “What would Jesus do?” I am just not too sure that I would agree with your assumption that
Jesus would not be involved in the Bersih 2.0 rally. It was just as well that tear gas and water cannons were not
invented during Jesus’ time, otherwise the Gospel pages would be rather scant and most of His speeches would have
been interrupted by those same governing authorities He was condemning. Providentially for us, He was able to
speak freely eventhough it offended the authority greatly, enough to plot His death.
John, it is my hope that you would realise that it is not easy for us as Christians to live a pluralistic society like ours
and to try and figure out what Jesus would do if He was here. Once thing for sure, Jesus was not one to avoid
controversies or be cowed by those who opposed Him or is one who avoided taking action when the occasion calls
for it, I think of Him turning the money-changers’ tables in the Temple.
Let me close with this quote by Jesus when He was asked about John the Baptist. In Mathew 11:12 - And from the
days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. By
“violent” I am sure Jesus does not mean those who would hurt others just to get what they want but Jesus meant
that in order to advance the kingdom of heaven, it must be by people who have an inner character quality of quiet
determination and discipline to pursue after that which God has called him to. With that I conclude and hope even if
taking to the streets is not your cup of tea, you would at least stand with us for what Jesus stood for – freedom,
justice, fairplay and love, for that is what Bersih 2.0 is about.
Another thing that I realised when I marched with fellow Malaysians of all races and religion, I am staking a claim to
the future of Malaysian on behalf of my children and their children and on behalf of my race and religion. For now
we are still defined by our race and religion but may it come a day when we are not. Maybe I will write to you again
to explain further about this. Till then, take care.
Your brother in Christ,
Thomas Fann
EC no. 2 said "powerless"
Election Commission no. 2 in public over “powerless” claim
Wan Ahmad
“we don’t make decisions” and “we are powerless”
Summed up the explanation by EC deputy chairman Wan Ahmad Wan Omar on July 26 2011 in a packed public dialogue organised by Malay daily Sinar Harian at Shah Alam headquarter.
In “what next after July 9” forum, Wan Ahmad was trying to explain why EC can’t fulfil Bersih’s 8 demands for electoral reforms.
Wan Ahmad said that EC is an “election management” body. “The government in power, anyone who rules the country, will have the advantage to determine the policy of the government.”
“You don’t understand that the EC operates under many other laws like the Police Act, the Sedition Act. Don’t push the blame on us...”
Ambiga said that Article 115 (2) spelt out that public authorities must comply to the EC power given under the Federal Constitution.

Ah Long illness in our society-Below is my letter to the Star paper editor
I am sure it is the public knowledge where Ah Longs are putting up all sort of posters blatantly everywhere. Now that I read what Mr Paul Singh, Kuala Lumpur have highlighted in your paper, I began to realize that it is not only occurring in Melaka where I am residing.
Now the question Mr Paul asked, why the police are not apprehending the Ah Longs is the" very question we have been asking in our mind for a long time.
The only reason I can think of for the police is that Ah Long is not their priority. They have so many other cases to be busy with.
I do pity our police who are already have their hands full especially just after the Bersih 2.0 Rally where they were kept busy. I observed that they have been very efficient putting road blocks as early as July 1st. even though Bersih was on July 9th. They locked down the whole of Kuala Lumpur especially the areas near the Merdeka Stadium. I know this so well because I was there in the Bersih Rally.
It is very easy to notice where the police are kept busy, just take a look in your paper today, page NATION 27, "Shooter can't be determined". The individual who caused the death of 15-year-old Aminulrasyid Amzah could not be determined because there were two policemen who fired the shots. Mine you, the above case happened more than a year ago in last April. I really pity the police who had been kept so busy for more than a year now, trying to police their own colleagues.
Just one more example where our police are kept busy. Your paper again, today, July 23 2011,page 34 Other News & Views, "Cops produce proof to refute Mat Sabu's claim" the cops have to come up with CCTV footage that shows the motorcycle ferrying Mat Sabu avoiding the police car before hitting a road divider. Here, the police is involve in politic trying to defense the political masters. No wonder, the Rakyat concerns are not in their priority list.
Let me share with your readers my personal encounters in making reports to the police. They actually are doing the job of a clerk filing up my reports, that is all. How do I know it? Just ask the police, they will tell you what they are busy with. My reports are not their priority.
I have came across other people who just simply not making reports to the police any more. So sad.
They will tell you the police, instead of investigating the case, they who make the report are kept busy being interviewed. The reports just end up in the files.
So much so now, we just better save our time in reporting because it is going to be a futile exercise. I am sure this is a common knowledge.
Now, let me come back the the illness of Ah Long in our society. I think it is just the symptom and sign of many of our fellow Malaysians finding difficulty in getting proper loan from the bank. If not, why borrow from Ah Longs who charge such an exorbitant interest? People who go to Ah Longs are at the dead end financially.
I propose many of us can come up with micro-financing to help giving out soft loans to those who are worthy of help. What prevents us from doing it is that we neither have the expertise nor the man power to hand out the loan securely. Money, in my view is the least problem. Many will donate to help those who are genuinely in need of help. The other thing that prevents us from helping is that Malaysia is full of up to date regulations and licenses that restricting us instead of helping us to help others.
May be, the police can be forth coming to let us know how they have been coping especially with the slogan, "People first, performance now".

Bad news for Najib: French police have found "crucial" Scorpene documents
Bad news for Najib: French police have found "crucial" Scorpene documents
PM Najib Razak was reported in today The Star paper that "I told my family that I should return to Malaysia and I was prepared to forgo the holiday for the sake of Malaysians back home."
He was reported to concentrate on his meet-the-people sessions with Malaysians.
Can you believe that? I was astounded that he is such a lovimg PM which I perceived otherwise in Bersih 2.0 Rally. If he is so loving, he should have come to Bersih and experience first- hand the Bersih spirit of truly 1 Malaysia.
Now after reading the alternative online report that I realised he came back to crisis management.
You see the Frenchman Lawyer William Bourdon was in Malaysia, was about to drop the bombshell of the Ghost/spirit of Altantuya Sharaabuui murder and the kickback corruption concerning the Scorpene Submarine, Bourdon was arrested in the airplane before even he could disembarked the plane in KLIA.
Now, Bourdon and wife have been deported back to France, we will wait for further explosive discloser of what happened.
What the Malaysian police has done to Mr William Bourdon will just the opposite effect of spreading the news far and wide with the people focus on the scandal instead of being cover-up.(Streisand effect).

Press bosses to silently protest against Putrajaya’s media council plan
The Information, Communication and Culture Ministry has sent letters inviting most media organizations to attend the inaugural meeting to form MCC (Media Consultative Council) next week.
The objectives are to be responsible in their duties to serve the country and people.
We will wait and see, what will come out of it.
Look like BN Government wants to do something better for a better Malaysia?

TBH death could not have been suicide. Mostly depressed people, yes.There was no reason for TBH to be depressed. You can't be suicidal in a day. His case under investigation was only concerning misappropriation of RM2k. Of his boss, YB Au Yang, not TBH himself. Moreover, he was going to get married in a day or two. For him as a political secretary, he could not be easily cowed.
Anything else, but no, no, no, NOT suicide!
TBH found dead.
Therefore, the spirit of TBH will be around circling in Malaysian political air space for a long, long time, refusing to rest. Similar to the spirit of the Mongolian lady, Altantuya.

Loving and enjoying the Orang Putih boy
Talk by Richard Rajoo the night before Bersih 2.0 Rally, July 8 2011
Multitude in Bersih 2.0 Rally
Leon and Michelle came with me. If ever Bersih 3.0 come along, I hope to bring Felicia (will have retired by then, will be free to come), Melody (will have graduated from Assunta), David and Peterson will be big enough to come!
Bersih 2.0 Rally comrades
Truly 1 Malaysia spirit we felt.
Met Pak Ji in Bersih 2.0 Rally
We became instant friend, he offered me his bread and water. Even though I was not hungry, I took a piece of the Gardineer fruit bread. I must thank him for the kindness he shown me. We were busy running that day, did not take his contact. Hope to find him one day and say "Salam, Pak Ji !". This moment was forever linger in my memory, thanks to the platform of Bersih Rally. This friendship is not an isolated case. Many have similar encounters. God bless us, I see July 9 2011 as the beginning of a new Dawn of a better Malaysia. Cheers!
9 specialist dsoctors of Tung Shin Hospital confirmed the truth.
The police head of the state and then the Minister of Health denied the violation of the hospital compound on Bersih day. Many of us do not need the doctors to write to know what took place on July 9 for we could see the many videos in the internet. It still amazes me why the authority were not able to keep up to the social media broadcasting. The last I hear was, Liow was calling for an investigation. The present Government seems to be good at lots of this and what not inquiry even up to the royal one...to us it all mean "delay tactic". The outcome? Nothing! You still remember the Royal inquiry of Lingam, look like me, sound like me, but not me...Up to this very day, he and his gang are FREE of any wrong. Justice delayed is justice denied.
Please read the following to know the truth.

Hi,
A letter from the doctors of Tung Shin Hospital.
AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH
We, the undersigned doctors, wish not to enter into the polemicsof the Bersih 2.0 march on 9th July 2011 but would like to clarify theinconvenient truth.
We are outraged at the incidents, and the subsequent responses fromthe authorities, to the events where tear gas and chemical laced waterwere shot into the compounds of Tung Shin and Chinese Maternity Hospitals,two adjacent buildings along Jalan Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, with scant regard for the safety of patients, staff and the general public who wereat the buildings that afternoon.
Hospitals are considered assafe sanctuaries for all, even during war times, but these consecratedplaces of refuge and protection were violated by the defence forcesthat afternoon. Police evenentered the buildingsin search of some of these peaceful marchers. What was most frighteningand witnessed by many was the unprovoked violent assault within thehospital compounds and apprehension of several protesters who had merelyrun into the hospitals to seek shelter from the tear gas and the watercannons!
It is repulsive that theauthorities entrusted with policing the nation and protecting the weakand needy, have shamelessly denied publicly, the occurrence of theseincidents IN SPITE of countless photo/video and eye witness accountsof what was evident to all independent observers.
A few of the undersigned were actually visiting or working in the hospitalsconcerned at the time of the events and will gladly provide sworn affidavits,if required, as to veracity of the incidents
The Malaysian public expect holders of high public office to honour theirpositions accorded by the citizens, by discharging their duties with moralintegrity, dignity and transparency.
Their failure to do so raises the public's doubts in their competenceand credibilty as much as it demeans those high offices.
