Kuala Terengganu: Akibat tidak tahan melihat ibunya dimaki hamun, seorang adik bertindak memukul abangnya menggunakan sebatang kayu hingga menyebabkan mangsa patah kaki dan dimasukkan ke Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah (HSNZ), kelmarin.

Dalam kejadian jam 4.30 petang di Kampung Panji Alam, mangsa berusia 20 tahun dikatakan berang selepas ibunya, Zaimah Othman, 60, tidak memberikan wang kepadanya untuk membaiki motosikal.

Tindakan lelaki terbabit memaki hamun dan menolak ibunya yang dalam perjalanan ke masjid itu mengundang geram anak bongsu daripada 11 beradik sebelum bertindak melibas kayu sepanjang 50 sentimeter ke kaki kiri abangnya hingga patah.

Zaimah berkata, mangsa terbabit dalam penyalahgunaan dadah dan kerap meminta wang daripadanya.

Anaknya bukan saja meminta wang dengannya, malah turut memaki hamun dan mengamuk setiap hari semata-mata ingin mendapatkan wang membeli bahan terlarang itu.

The Postman's Secret

thelonely — Mon, 22 Jul 2013 07:55:14 +0800

KUALA LUMPUR: Hidden near a posh housing area in Ukay Heights in Ampang is a lush green ravine with a dirty secret.

The site has been a dumping ground for irresponsible postmen who have earmarked the secluded spot to get rid of mail they did not deliver.

Yesterday, two residents found thousands of undelivered mail in the ravine and called The Star, which in turn informed a passing postman.

One of the two, Ismail W.O., said he was driving past the area when he saw three postmen loitering by the roadside next to the ravine.

“I was wondering what they were doing because there are no houses around there and I did not ask and continued on my way.

“Then I remembered that I had left something behind and turned back. I was shocked to see that their big cloth mailbags were empty. They had been full minutes ago,” he added.

Suspecting something amiss, Ismail informed his residents’ association chairman William Atyeo, who climbed down the ravine and found the thousands of envelopes scattered about.

A rough check showed that some of the mail had been there for over a year and damaged by rain. They were to be sent to Ampang Jaya, Ukay Heights and the surrounding residential areas.

“There are cheques, bills, bank statements, correspondence letters and many others,” said Ismail.

Some residents had complained that they had not been receiving their regular mail like telephone and pay-TV bills, said Atyeo.

After being notified, Pos Malaysia sent a team to the scene. Its workers retrieved most of the mail from two nearby locations along Jalan Tebrau 1, but they believe there could be more.

Pos Malaysia operations chief (Communications and Distribution Solutions), Helmi Hashim, said the three postmen involved had been identified and would be sacked.

It is believed that one of the postmen has been in the job for several years while the other two are quite new.

“We will also lodge a police report against them for criminal breach of trust,” he added.

Helmi said Pos Malaysia would sort out the mail.

“Mail which is still intact will be re-posted. As for the damaged ones, we will personally go to the addresses to explain to our customers,” he added.

Helmi said a thorough check would be carried out in the ravine today for more mail.

Pos Malaysia Berhad, in a statement, said all the letters would be collected by today and be processed for delivery immediately.

“We want to assure our customers and the public that Pos Malaysia Berhad has a zero tolerance policy towards the mistreatment of letters and we do not condone such irresponsible behaviour amongst our staff,” said its Group CEO Datuk Iskandar Mizal Mahmood.

This is an isolated case and a police report has been lodged,” he said, and thanked the residents assocation for their effort and cooperation in the matter.

Place to propose

Hello there,
My GF is coming home from Australia for a short holiday and I am adamant to propose to her, since both our families have met and we all approve of each other as well.
So no I would like to get any sugestions in where I should propose to her (I'm a muslim by the way, so keep it halal okay )
It's just that she always hinted that she wants me to propose eventhough we are going to be engaged in a proper malay way at the end of this year. She wants that feeling to be proposed to.

any advice? thanks in advance
