A former aide, 23 years, filed a police report late Saturday claiming that DS Anwar Ibrahim had sodomized him in his apartment on Thursday.

Rumours were being spread through SMS that Saiful Bahari, had been arrested and “forced” to make a statement saying he was sodomized by the opposition leader.

The police report lodged against me earlier (Saturday) is a complete fabrication. I believe we are witnessing a repeat of the methods used against me in 1998 when false allegations were made under duress – Anwar Ibrahim

More from his fan site..

mmm.. It’s happening again…

I am terribly sorry for any inconvenience, but this page is not completed, or it is down for maintenance..

Mesti korang teringat gi skolah masa sekolah rendah dulu bawak 30 sen jer. Bawal bekal air, nasik kicap dan ikan goreng. Nasik lemak kat kantin sekolah 20 sen, air spuloh sen. Cukup. Kalau cikgu suruh bawak gam, kita suruh mak kita masak tepung kanji. Ingat tak dulu kita buat buah durian dengan kertas minyak, kita balut pada belon.. batang betik, pelepah pisang, ubi kentang kita ukir jadikan corak masa kelas lukisan. Korang tak ingat eh?

Teruk betul lah..

Siapa yang lahir sekitar tahun 1970? Atau siapa yang berumur lebih kurang 35-40 hari ni masih ingat tak zaman budak-budak rebena dulu.

Kita pegi kedai beli chikedis, Mamee, Ding Dang mat sentul, Kum Kum, Bubbleyum, sugus… ice cream batang 10 sen yang ada asam masin dalam tu. Ingat tak kita makan jambu batu dengan asam masin. Gang-gang lelaki dulu kita kumpul gambar pemain bola masa musim piala dunia dulu. Ingat tak Maradona, Zico, Kevin Keegan, Michel Platini, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. Ingat tak Road to Wembley atau Big League Soccer? Aduhai.. ingat tak kita buat 11 ‘pemain’ bola dengan lipatan manila card dan kotak kasut, kita buat tiang gol pakai kertas, kita tulis no dan nama pemain bola kesukaan kita atas card ‘pemain’ kita. Kita jadikan buah ceri atau kapur sekolah sebagai bola.

Cuba flashback semula rancangan TV yang menjadi kegemaran kita pada masa tu.. Captan Future, Marco, Ultraman, Sinbad, Popeye the Sailorman. Adeh aku tengok cerita Marco tu pun sampai menitik air mata. Wahaha..

Hari Jumaat, malam selepas berita TV kita akan layan Tayangan Minggu Ini, filem Melayu. Abis filem Melayu tu kita tengok cerita Pattenplace ke apa nama dan ejaannya aku lupa. Ingat tak cerita Little House on the Prairie, atau Donny and Marry, atau cerita polis Chips? Atau cerita Dallas? Hart to hart? The Incredible Hulk, The Six Million Dollar man, The Greatest American Hero, Charlie Angels.. mungkin bebudak hari ni ingat Charlie Angels tu cerita baru.. huhuhu. Masa tu ada Drama minggu ini, puspawarna, PJ1 – ceh cerita ala Dallas ni, Opah.. apa lagi eh daya ingatan aku pun dah semakin lemah di makan usia.

Tengok TV1 dan TV2 jer, mana ada ASTRO pun. TV3 start 1984. Siap letak kuali kat antenna nak cari TV3. TV kaler hitam putih. Remote control pun masih takde lagi. Pagi-pagi takde siaran TV, kita tengok TV pendidikan. Pukul 3 petang baru ada siaran TV.. kuno betul kan.

Waktu petang apa yang kita main, main bola satu gol, rounders, konda kondi, galah panjang, polis sentri, congkak, baling selipar pada tin susu yang kita susun bertingkat dan main tudung oren. Batu seremban aku tak main, geli. Kita buat layang-layang, kita bikin lastik kita lastik burung. Orang tua marah kita, dia kata dia nak lastik burung kita. Kita masuk hutan, kita mandi sungai, cari ikan skila (ikan pelaga), kita laga ayam.. ahaha. Ingat tak kita main getah gelang yang diikat panjang apa kenama permainan tu Zero Point ka apa, start dari bawah, angkat getah ke lutut, pinggang, ketiak, bahu sampailah ke kepala, kita main lelaki lawan perempuan. Syoknya kita tengok bila budak-budak perempuan lompat getah panjang tu. Kadang-kadang kita main PS2.. perhhh pigidah mana ada semua tu. Kita buat senapang kayu, letak getah gelang di muncung senapang dan tarik sampai ke picu. Buah ceri dan buah terung pipit.. kena tembak auww.. akit nye.

Ingat tak lagi, kita main tepuk daun terup kecik, kalau gambar daun terup tu terlungkup ke bawah kita dikira kalah, daun itu jadi hak kawan kita. Kita lawan guli, kita lawan getah gelang yang diletakkan atas dua batang kayu macam tiang gol kecik tu, kalau getah tu jatuh ke tanah, getak gelang tu jadi hak milik kita, kalau getah tersebut tersentuh tiang gol tidak di kira, kita kata ‘karan’.. kecik-kecik kita pun dah berjudi.. huhuhu.

Dulu kalau nampak pelangi jangan tunjuk nanti kudung tangan, sampai hari ni aku tak tahu apa motif pesanan orang-orang tua masa tu. Jangan main waktu senja nanti kena mata hantu, jangan duduk atas bantal nanti naik bisul, jangan baring dan angkat kaki nanti mak mati.

Ingat tak zaman kita bersunat dulu, bersunat takde bius dik.. belasah jer.. aduhaii ni semua sebab nak peluk perempuan punya pasal. Kita gantung kain buat khemah untuk budak kecik yang dah botak tu, standby tempurung kelapa untuk ketuk kepala lutut.. wahaha pedihh pedihh. Masa sembahyang di surau kita kena duk kat saf belakang sebab kita ni tak sunat lagi.. sebab masih berkulup.

Apa pantun yang kita belajar dulu?

Pecah kaca pecah gelas
Sudah baca harap balas..

Masa kat sekolah rendah tu, setiap hari Isnin kita berhimpun, tangan atas bahu orang depan. Kita nyanyi lagu Negaraku version yang mengantuk tu sambil kawan kita naikkan bendera. Zaman jahil kita tu kita pakai seluar pendek biru dan baju putih. Aweks pakai blous biru, baju putih juga. Biasalah kita skodeng aweks tu kan. Mana ada baju kurung, tudung litup semua tu. Kita suka match kan kawan-kawan kita, Ali nak kat Siti, Abu nak kat Ani. Nak apa tu, bersunat pun belum. Kita ada adik angkat, abang angkat dan kakak angkat.. sampai terangkat-angkat.

Ingat tak dulu kita biasa kena cubit, kena ketuk kepala, tarik telinga, pulas perut, kena penampo, cubit ketiak, henjut telinga. Berdiri atas kerusi, atas meja, kerusi atas kepala kita, kalau kita tak buat kerja rumah. Ingat tak roti panjang, pembaris kuning kesayangan cikgu untuk pukul kita. Apa syllabus kita dulu.. Ilmu Hisab, Ilmu Alam, Kajian Tempatan, Tatarakyat, Tulisan Jawi. Karektor yang mungkin kita masih ingat kisah Pakcik Kordi dengan basikalnya yang kebiru-biruan.. haha.

Cikgu tanya kalau besar nanti kita nak jadi apa, kita jawab kita nak jadi polis, askar, cikgu, peguam. Aku jawab aku nak jadi doktor haiwan, sebab aku suka operate katak dan tikus. Kawan aku cakap nak jadi posmen.. hehehehehe

Bunyi loceng rehat kita tak rehat tapi kita main galah panjang, rounders bila masuk kelas semula mak aii bau hangit. Tengok kat koler baju mak aii hitam dengan daki.

Itu cerita lama kita, kawan-kawan kita dulu entah kemana. Hari ni ada kawan-kawan kita yang jadi businessman yang berjaya, ada yang jadi kuli. Ada yang berjaya dalam hidup dan ada yang dah balik jumpa Tuhan. Ada kawan kita yang tersesat jalan dan tak jumpa jalan pulang. Sedih kan bila tengok nasib mereka, masa kecik-kecik dulu kita sama-sama bermain tapi bila dah tua ni kita tak mampu nak tunjukkan jalan pulang untuk mereka.

Kawan-kawan sepermainan kita mungkin semuanya sudah berkeluarga dan punyai anak-anak. Kalau kita masih boleh berjumpa dengan mereka, pastinya cerita lampau yang kita bualkan. Kalau lah kita mampu untuk kembali ke zaman tersebut..

Salam everyone,

My blog will be going under maintenance and upgrades this weekend so expect downtimes from Friday June 20th to Sunday June 22th.

You may experience some disruptions, but everything will be ok.

I got from email and share it here.

QUALITY OF CRUDE & REFINED PRODUCTS
Malaysia produces about 600,000 barrels of crude oil per day (and about 100,000 barrels condensate). Of this crude volume, 339,000 barrels are refined locally for local consumption. The rest is exported (and yes, because it has lower sulphur content it fetches higher prices).

Malaysia also imports about 230,000 barrels of crude oil per day, mainly from the Middle East, to be refined here. This crude oil contains higher sulphur and is less expensive (so the country gains more by exporting our crudes). In Malaysia, this crude is processed by PETRONAS at its
second refinery in Melaka, and also by Shell at its Port Dickson refinery.

Different refineries are built and configurated to refine different types of crude. And each crude type yields different percentage of products (diesel, gasoline, kerosene, cooking gas etc) per barrel.

But most importantly, products that come out at the end of the refining process have the same good quality regardless of the crude types. That’s why PETRONAS, Shell and Exxon Mobil share the same pipeline to transport the finished products from their refineries to a distribution centre in the Klang Valley. The three companies collect the products at this centre accordingly to be distributed to their respective distribution networks. What makes PETRONAS’ petrol different from Shell’s, for example, is the additive that each company adds.

PETRONAS’ ROLE, FUNCTION & CONTRIBUTION
3) A lot of people also do not understand the role and function of PETRONAS, which is essentially a company, a business entity, which operates on a commercial manner, to mainly generate income and value for its shareholder. In this case, PETRONAS’ shareholder is the Government.

In 1974, when PETRONAS was set up, the Government gave PETRONAS RM10 million (peanuts, right?) as seed capital. From 1974 to 2007, PETRONAS made RM570 billion in accumulated profits, and returned to the Government a total of RM335.7 billion. That is about 65% of the profits. That means for every RM1 that PETRONAS makes, 65 sen goes back to the Government.

Last year, PETRONAS made a pre-tax profit of RM86.8 billion. The amount given back to the Government (in royalty, dividends, corporate income tax, petroleum products income tax and export duty) was RM52.3 billion. The rest of the profit was used to pay off minority interests and taxes in foreign countries (about RM7.8 billion – PETRONAS now operates in more than 30 countries), and the remaining RM26.7 billion was reinvested. The amount reinvested seems a lot, but the oil and gas industry is technology- and capital-intensive. Costs have gone up exponentially in the last couple of years. Previously, to drill a well, it cost about US$3 million; now it costs US$7 million. The use of rigs was US$200,000 a day a couple of years ago; now it costs US$600,000 a day.

A lot of people also do not realise that the amount returned by PETRONAS to the Government makes up 35% of the Government’s total annual income, to be used by the Government for expenditures, development, operations, and yes, for the various subsidies. That means for every RM1 the Government makes, 35 sen is contributed by PETRONAS.

So, instead of asking what happens to PETRIONAS’ money or profits, people should be questioning how the money paid by PETRONAS to the Government is allocated.

CRUDE EXPORTS & FUEL PRICES
4) A lot of people also ask, why Malaysia exports its crude oil. Shouldn’t we just stop exporting and sell at cheaper prices to local refiners? If Malaysia is an oil exporting country, why can’t we sell petrol or diesel at cheaper prices like other oil producing countries in the Middle East?

I guess I don’t have to answer the first couple of questions. It’s simple economics, and crude oil is a global commodity.

Why can’t we sell petrol and diesel at lower prices like in the Middle East? Well, comparing Saudi Arabia and other big producers to Malaysia is like comparing kurma to durian, because these Middle Eastern countries have much, much, much bigger oil and gas
reserves.

Malaysia has only 5.4 billion barrels of oil reserves, and about 89 trillion cubic feet of gas. Compare that to Saudi Arabia’s 260 billion barrels of oil and 240 trillion cubic feet of gas.

Malaysia only produces 600,000 barrels per day of oil. Saudi Arabia produces 9 million barrels per day. At this rate, Saudi Arabia’s crude oil sales revenue could amount to US$1.2 billion per day! At this rate, it can practically afford almost everything — free education, healthcare, etc, and subsidies — for its people.

But if we look at these countries closely, they have in the past few years started to come up with policies and strategies designed to prolong their reserves and diversify their income bases. In this sense, Malaysia (and PETRONAS) has had a good head start, as we have been doing this a long time.

Fuel prices in Malaysia is controlled by the Government based on a formula under the Automatic Pricing Mechanism introduced more than a couple of decades ago. It is under this mechanism that the complex calculation of prices is made, based on the actual cost of petrol or diesel, the operating costs, margin for dealers, margin for retail oil companies (including PETRONAS Dagangan Bhd) and the balancing number of duty or subsidy. No retail oil companies or dealers actually make money from the hike of the fuel prices. Oil companies pay for the products at market prices, but have to sell low, so the Government reimburses the difference — thus subsidy.

Subsidy as a concept is OK as long as it benefits the really deserving segment of the population. But there has to be a limit to how much and how long the Government should bear and sustain subsidy. An environment where prices are kept artificially low indefinitely will not do anyone any good. That’s why countries like Indonesia are more pro-active in removing subsidies. Even Vietnam (which is a socialist country, by the way) is selling fuel at market prices.

PETRONAS & TRANSPARENCY
5) I feel I also need to say something on the allegation that PETRONAS is not transparent in terms of its accounts, business transactions etc.

PETRONAS is first and foremost a company, operating under the rules and regulations of the authorities including the Registrar of Companies, and the Securities Commission and Bursa Malaysia for its listed four subsidiaries (PETRONAS Dagangan Bhd, PETRONAS Gas Bhd, MISC Bhd and KLCC Property Holdings Bhd.

PETRONAS the holding company produces annual reports which are made to whomever wants them, and are distributed to many parties and places; including to the library at the Parliament House for perusal and reading pleasure of all Yang Berhormat MPs (if they care to read). PETRONAS also makes the annual report available on its website, for those who bother to look. The accounts are duly audited.

The website also contains a lot of useful information, if people really care to find out. Although PETRONAS is not listed on Bursa Malaysia, for all intents and purposes, it could be considered a listed entity as its bonds and financial papers are traded overseas. This requires scrutiny from investors, and from rating agencies such as Standard & Poor and Moody’s.

BOYCOTT PETRONAS?
6) The last time I checked, this is still a democratic country, where people are free to spend their money wherever they like.

For those who like to see more of the money that they spend go back to the local economy and benefiting their fellow Malaysians, perhaps they should consider sticking to local products or companies.

For those who like to see that the money they spend go back to foreign shareholders of the foreign companies overseas, they should continue buying foreign products.

FINAL WORD (FOR TODAY)
I’m sorry this is rather long, but I just have to convey it. I hope this would help some of you out there understand something. The oil and gas industry, apart from being very capital intensive, is also very complex and volatile. I’m learning new things almost every single day.

First and foremost I would like to say salam to all my ex housemates and al fatihah to our beloved Allahyarham Kim.

Yeah, I believe all of us remember those time. The memories we have shared will never leave us, we appreciate all whom involved in our lives.

September 26th, 1995 was a day that changed our life. We said goodbye to our family at KLIA airport to go towards the greatest adventure and the biggest challenge of our life. We left the familiar, the routines, the predictable, the stillness and we went towards the unknown, the unpredictable, the unimaginable.

Since the first day, I had that wonderful feeling that I’m gonna remember this for all my life.

We found ourself there, thousands of kilometers far from home, in an unknown country… Newcastle Upon Tyne didn’t mean anything to us before. But from the very beginning we got to know how to appreciate it and then love it… we got to know the history, people’s habits, culture etc.

Life cannot be perfect though! One of the biggest challenge was the language barrier! After arriving in the UK we went through a linguistic shock! A language blockade! We did understand what people were saying to us, but was nowhere near to be able to answer in a decent way! We have landed on Geordieland!

whorrama ganna dee ? – what am i going to do ?
fuk ya man -
fuk off –
weor are yee gannin ? – where are you going?

Yeah.. a unique experience of living in another country, a way to meet people and to see our life from a different point of view. Since this day we experienced things we had never experienced before and things we would never have experienced in our whole life if we hadn’t gone to. We lived what everyone should live. We grew up. We changed. We found true happiness, we found friends, we found love, we found a life that we will miss forever.

In Newcastle Upon Tyne, we all are the same. We all have difficulties to adjust to this new culture, new place, new slang. We all miss home. At the end of the month we all counted our last penny to buy that fish and chip for dinner from Paki’s stall. Most of us were Mara / JPA sponsored student, still remember £291.00 we got every month?

There are so many moments, so many stories, so many pictures, that words are never enough.

The dinners, the lunches with local people, the breakfasts, going to the supermarket, car boot sales, the evenings on the street, the trips to Aberdeen, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Disneyland Paris, backpacking tour Europe, the football matches, the days at the lab, the mirc, the days at the beach, the sea, the walks to school, the usrah.

The lectures, the classes, the snow, the Geordie people, the boxing day, the blonde chick, the pretty girls, the Metallica concert at The Newcastle Arena, the Metro station, amazing Baltic Gallery on Newcastle Quayside, and all the other things that can’t be written. We will never forget it. We will never forget them.

Remember that the temperature has gone up and down; snow has fallen, melted away, and fallen again. Did you remember the days being short when the sun came up around 8:00am and went down around 3:30pm. We left home in the dark and returned home in the dark.

We’ve learnt a lot, we met wonderful people and it helped us to be more open-minded. There are no difficulties impossible to overcome!

Oh yeah.. night life in Newcastle is rather interesting with pubs and discos. You drunk and I brought you home.. fuk ya man.

Summer was even more fun. Renting a car and driving across the Great Britain is time of our life.

Yeah we have been at Land’s End, the cute monster Nessie at Loch Ness in Scotland, Lake District etc.

Though almost 11 years have passed since we left UK, there is hardly a day on which I do not think about our stay there. I miss my good friends then. I wish I could see them all again. There are some I still contact with every now and then. To all of my friends, the best luck to you and your future.

August 1997, we gathered at Newcastle Airport, not knowing how long until we would be able to see each other again. It was painful. We left for the airport, thinking back about our experience..

They are all beautiful memories, but sometimes it hurts when you look back.

I know it’s a little late for this but life has been busy here.

My favourite team in Euro 2008 is GERMANY and Ballack is one my favourite players. If you’re Germany supporter then please raise your hand.

I would like to see Germany vs Italy in the final, if that is possible. The teams that I absolutely don’t want to win are France and Portugal. I don’t know why, it’s maybe because of I dislike Cristiano Ronaldo and Henry.

Salute!
