Those who are the fans of Chinese movies should not have missed those regarding the Imperial Palace internal courts struggling for power.I remember one such movie which depicts the power struggle by different prince to be the heir apparent to the throne.In that movie, one such prince with the support of the imperial officials set up intelligent agencies called the "East Factory" and "West Factory" to penetrate the competitors' and dissident's and use hired assassins to eliminate their opponents and their supporters.
Can we see a pattern like those depicted in the movies in Malaysia? Of course, there might not be bloodshed in our case, but l am not too sure either as l am not in the Police force or Intelligent agencies. Recently, the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/108662) has been very active and swift in "taking actions against Pekatan Rakyat's elected representatives in Selangor and we "have seen a political secretary of one Executive Councilor who was reported jumping off the 14th floor HQ of Selangor's MACC .
At least the police is fast to announced that Teo Beng Hock jumped off the 14th floor building even before they start their investigation, that is what we called "off-this-world" standard and speed. Should Malaysian praise the police for their efficiency?
Then the minister in the PM department immediately came out to caution Malaysian not to point finger at the MACC (http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/108656) and he says "Then he should have gone home (instead)....and how would we know that he would jump out of the building?" the de facto law minister added. It was like he knows what happened but what puzzle Malaysians is the fact that how could the minister knows that Teo Beng Hock jumped out the building when he wasn't present at the time unless of course he knows something that we do not know. I think the police should know who they should seek assistance from in the investigation.
The Attorney General of Malaysia should recommend that a Royal Commission be set up in this case to "free" the PM and his BN government from any finger-pointing by the general public and the oppositions.
May be it is time to disband the MACC and set up a new Anti-corruption agency reporting only to the Parliament instead of reporting to the PM. The MACC has lost all its credibility for the recent developments and there is no reason why the PM can not replace it if he is serious about " 1 Malaysia, People first, Performance now"
I hope this article would not draw the “East or West" factory's agency men to me as their next target or else we will see the rebirth of the Ming's dynasty in Malaysia.
