Truth is just an illusion by ACP (Rtd) Haji Osman Abu Bakar
Guilty or Not Guilty?
The nation will again be kept on her toes when the decision of this infamous sodomy trial involving former Deputy Prime Minister,Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (DSAI) is announced. A sequel to a similar story occurred more than a decade ago that tore the nation apart. The sensational case of 1998 has in fact divided the general public into three factions. One faction of society swayed strongly to DSAI side, convinced that he was merely a victim of a grand conspiracy by the government while the other faction strongly believed that DSAI was indeed involved as charged. While a small faction, the fence sitters who chose to remain neutral. These three factions exist everywhere, in the public sector, the private sector and even in institutions of higher learning.
By the way, I wonder in the Chua Soi Lek’s escapade, who was the smart Alex who executed his operation so smoothly that his identity remained intact to this very day? Phew! Probably he was trained by the KGB? Well mister mysterious, whoever you are you surely is my kind of man and you would have been my first choice candidate for the post of our intelligence chief.So much for that, whatever has been done cannot be undone.Just like the Malay proverb ‘nasi dah jadi bubur’ that’s exactly the situation we are in.It’s best we look forward for the sake of unity and security of this country. A thing easier said than done all due to the failure to react appropriately when the 1998 case was known.

D-day Jan 9 |
9 Jan 2012 is the time we wait for the second tidal wave concerned with the recent case of similar nature and charges preferred against DSAI by his ex aide. Though lots of controversies surrounded the investigation into this case, the honourable judge, will have to come to a decision after careful scrutiny and review all the evidences and facts presented before him, A tough decision but someone has to do the job, don’t they?
For the members of the Royal Malaysia Police in the Klang valley, it means bad news as usual leave will be frozen and all are to be on’ standby’ a word hated by most serving in the Klang valley. But nothing to complain as members of the Royal Malaysia Police must realise that their responsibility to the nation is not a walk in the park which I learnt during my training days. Since 1998 street demonstrations and assemblies became a common affair.
Oh yes, don’t forget to tune into the next episode of “Did He Do It?” concerning the controversial sex video clip that should be next after this episode, or is it just going to be filed away?
Lastly as a humble Muslim and just back from the holy land I always pray to Allah swt for the truth to prevail and when this happen it can be painful but like it or not, the truth is the truth and has to prevail. Instability and chaos will only bring miseries and therefore I again pray for Allah swt to protect this beloved country, avoid any catastrophe and let us enjoy progress,everlasting peace and above all racial harmony. Amin
Excellent usage of old school English Tuan Haji Osman!
Sincere heartfelt points of view, I must say.
Whatever it is, we’ll all be witness to whatever the verdict is gonna be on the 9th of January, 2012.
