Guan Eng, who's lying now?

In 2010, Penang recorded 800 cases of crime per 100,000 population. In Johor, 639 cases were recorded in the same year, considerably lower than in Penang, contrary to the picture Lim Guan Eng painted to investors and journalists in Singapore recently. In private, of course. - Sources: Various, courtesy of Crime: Penang vs Johor
The Mole: We did ask for his comment lah ...
Siakap senohong gelama ikan duri
Bercakap bohong lama-lama mencuri
- an old Malay saying, which simply says that a liar will end up stealing from you

It was Mr Wong, the junior press secretary of Lim Guan Eng, the Penang chief minister, who accused the New Straits Times of lying in its report (Let me deal with Bernama first, NST 27/9) that The Mole had contacted his boss for comments on fresh allegations of his Johor-bitching. Junior apparently didn't know that The Mole had contacted his boss' political secretary. Above his pay scale kot? Read Setting the record straight with Guan Eng, The Mole replays the sms exchanges, screenshots and all.

Junior Wong, you owe NST an apology. Usually, I wont bother but since your boss is so fond of demanding for apologies "or we'll sue you" and is going around labeling the MSM as not trustworthy, I must insist that you go down on your knees and say sorry. And watch you tongue, next time. Check with your seniors from the office before you issue another statement.

And tell that boss of yours to own up lah.

“If I had made the statement, let’s look at the context in which it was made… it was a private conversation.”  -Lim Guan Eng, as reported by Malaysiakini which, disappointingly, let Guan Eng get away with crap! Read "In Private" Journalism ..."  Helen Ang, a former MSM journalist, thankfully, is less afraid and therefore less sympathetic; read putar.BELIT putar.BELIT putar.BELIT

YAB, the Sultan of Johor is offended by your remarks. I don't know what you plan to do about that or what the Sultan plans to do about it, but I know one thing: you owe the rakyat of Johor an apology. And not in private, certainly.

p.s. And you've got to rid yourself of that new Advisor of yours, man. He is a bad person. Remember when he was suing me,  and you would send me all those sms's on the eve of every court date and we'd agree on  how evil he was. Don't work with evil, Guan Eng ..

    this Lim guy doesnt have a clue how to sell penang without painting the others black

    its like those saying 'cut other people's leg so that he looked tall'.
    or 'racing with others leg tied'

    Oooooo, Latuk Locky, so you believe Big Cat's statistics ? What if I say that the statistics were from Utusan ? Better still, the statistics come from that clown Warrior 231 ? Or that the 600 cases were severe cases like snatch thieves and armed robberies compared to 800 non-severe cases like petty theft and housebreaking ?

    Alamak, stop spinning for your masters lah, Latuk. The proof will come in GE13.

    But still the foreign investors seem to like Penang....

    How much of that is due to the state government as separate from the federal government?

    With regard to the "statistics" about crime rates per 100,000 people in Penang and Johor in 2010, just how reliable are these stats?

    Ipso facto, they only cover "reported" crimes. What about "unreported" crimes?

    Why not commission the Merdeka Centre to conduct an independent poll among a selected sample of Penangites and Johoreans to see who actually feels safer where?

    More to the point, since we are talking about the relatve merits of Penang and Johor for foreign investors, and since LGE's purported remarks were made in Singapore, why not ask the various chambers of commerce in Singapore which is their preferred investment destination in Malaysia?

    After all, Singapore is supposedly a key target as a source of investments as far as the Iskandar folks are concerned. Or, maybe, they just like to do a little R&R in the citystate to get away from the rigours of the job back home!

    "Statistik penduduk dan jenayah adalah berdasarkan kepada rekod tahun 2010, dipetik daripada sumber yang boleh dipercayai."

    Sumber yang boleh dipercayai? Jadi, beri sumber itu jika begitu boleh dipercayai. Apa yang ditakuti? Siapa percaya sumber kerajaan adalah tepat and benar?

    Given the amount of people who don't bother to do police report because you won't be entertained, even more so Singaporeans who can't speak Malay will be chased out anyway, how do you expect us to believe government reported statistics? It is a well known fact out there that nobody even believe that the police will solve the crime even if reported. I reported a crime to the police when theft happened in my house. They took 30mins to reach my place eventhough the JB police HQ is 3 minutes drive from my home in Pelangi. They came chit chat, don't even bother to ask me to make a report and left the scene. End of story and that was 3 years ago. My friends can also testify that the police didn't want to take their report unless they pay a sum of money for it. We need to pay for police report!!! Finally, it is also unfair to compare like that because you DID NOT take into account the population of Singaporeans who visited JB. Then, how do you compare?

    Time and again the government twisted the data. The latest one we all know was the corruption amount in the Customs Department. RM108 billion to RM3 billion.

    The only way to verify which location has more crime than the other is really to go down to the streets and interview the people living in the area. I won't believe government stats, especially the police.

    Isu pokok ialah kejadian jenayah yang berlaku di kedua-dua negeri iaitu P.Pinang dan Johor.Mana yang lebih tinggi?

    Untuk meleraikannyq saya rasa perlu bagi Ketua Polis Negara yang bertanggungjawab ke atas keselamatan dalam negeri dan ketenteraman awam mengeluarkan kenyataan rasmi berhubung statistik jenayah kedua-dua negeri dan analisisnya secara terperinci.

    Sama ada kenyataan rasmi tersebut dapat menepis sebarang persepsi negatif masyarakat terhadap keadaan jenayah dikedua-dua negeri, itu soal lain. Namun, KPN mesti bersiap sedia memberikan response yang meyakinkan.

    1) Do you know why LIM GUAN ENG talk like LEE KUAN YEW?
    ANSWER: Becos' Lee Kuan Yew is Guan Eng's biological father. This is why they said "Bapak borek, anak rintik".

    2) How can LIM GUAN ENG be LEE KUAN YEW's biological son?
    ANSWER: Lim Guan Eng's mother was a SLUT & when she saw Lee Kuan Yew way back then, she got HORNY & WET. She then discreetly went for a 1 night stand without her JACKASS husband (Lim Kit Siang) knowing about the affair.

    3) What about LIM KIT SIANG?
    ANSWER: He's just a DUMB FOOL not knowing his wife was BANGED by a SINGAPOREAN still think Lim Guan Eng is still his beloved biological son.

U want to dispute where I got the statistics from? Go and get your friends from DAP to do their own research and once they got their figures, pls post it to rubbish mine. In fact I did ask Guan Eng ppl to do something to that effect. Go read my posting again carefully. Its just before I play that lovely song.

    S$1.00 = RM2.3x? Now why is that, I wonder?

    I have lived in JB for many years; in fact, I did study at the then Johor English College when it was one of the premier schools in the country (alas, it no longer is).
