            <title>Police getting sued</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2328921</link>
            <description>&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&lt;b&gt;Possible civil suits against police, says Bar Council&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KUALA LUMPUR, May 1 — Civil suits might be filed against the police on behalf of Bersih supporters who were physically injured during last Saturday’s rally, the Bar Council has said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bar Council president Lim Chee Wee told reporters today that he was in the process of gathering volunteer lawyers to file the suits on behalf of those who had allegedly been roughed up by authorities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We will talk to our members, to see whether or not we can gather enough members of the Bar to volunteer to interview all the victims of human rights violations and probably pursue civil suits,” said Lim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said this will be done “as soon as possible” but did not specify a timeframe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lawyer, however, said that the Bar’s first option would be to discuss its concerns with Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We would like to engage the police. It is good that the IGP does not shut the door to engagement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The time has come for police to have proper guidelines... this cannot continue,” Lim added.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bar Council will also push for the Malaysian Human Rights Commission (Suhakam) to conduct a “comprehensive” inquiry into alleged human rights’ violations which took place during the Bersih rally, said Lim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/images/uploads/2012/may2012/01/m_bersih5.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'&gt;The Bar Council will also push for Suhakam to conduct a “comprehensive” inquiry into alleged human rights’ violations during Bersih. — Picture by Jack Ooi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chaos reigned on the streets of Kuala Lumpur for over four hours after 3pm last Saturday when police fired tear gas and water cannons and chased protesters down the streets of the capital to disperse what had initially started out as a peaceful protest calling for free and fair elections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The melee was believed to have begun after overzealous protesters either mistakenly or deliberately breached the three-ringed barricades — razor-wire fences, plastic blockades and metal gates — that were placed around Dataran Merdeka.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Bersih 3.0 and opposition party leaders, the barriers were breached after the rally was called to a close and declared a success but it is believed that the message was lost among the sheer thousands who turned up for the event, the third to be held since 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ensuing violence has pitted both Bersih supporters and the government in a blame game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Scores of civilians, policemen and even journalists were hurt when the protest took an ugly twist with demonstrators refusing to back down and even raining missiles upon their armed pursuers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cat-and-mouse game went on for hours and many protesters were seen allegedly roughed up by the police but in his immediate response, Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein insisted that the police had acted with restraint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;International media organisations have already predicted that the force used by the police may have a negative backlash on the Najib administration, adding that polls may have to be delayed past their expected June date if the government is keen on recapturing lost votes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/possible-civil-suits-against-police-says-bar-council/' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysi...ys-bar-council/&lt;/a&gt;</description>

Thousands of events occur not just on this day but throughout March to mark the economic, political and social achievements of women.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Organisations, governments, charities and women&amp;#39;s groups around the world choose different themes each year that reflect global and local gender issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Connecting Girls, Inspiring Futures&amp;quot; is the 2012 theme of the internationalwomensday.com website and this has been widely used by hundreds of organisations including schools, universities, governments, women’s groups and the private sector. Each year the United Nations declares an overall International Women&amp;#39;s Day theme. Their 2012 theme is “Empower Rural Women – End Hunger and Poverty”. Many organisations develop their own themes that are more relevant to their local contexts. For example, the European Parliament&amp;#39;s 2012 theme is &amp;quot;Equal pay for work of equal value&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;United Nation International Women&amp;#39;s Day themes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 2012: Empower Rural Women – End Hunger and Poverty&lt;br /&gt;- 2011: Equal access to education, training and science and technology&lt;br /&gt;- 2010: Equal rights, equal opportunities: Progress for all&lt;br /&gt;- 2009: Women and men united to end violence against women and girls&lt;br /&gt;- 2008: Investing in Women and Girls&lt;br /&gt;- 2007: Ending Impunity for Violence against Women and Girls&lt;br /&gt;- 2006: Women in decision-making&lt;br /&gt;- 2005: Gender Equality Beyond 2005: Building a More Secure Future&lt;br /&gt;- 2004: Women and HIV/AIDS&lt;br /&gt;- 2003: Gender Equality and the Millennium Development Goals&lt;br /&gt;- 2002: Afghan Women Today: Realities and Opportunities&lt;br /&gt;- 2001: Women and Peace: Women Managing Conflicts&lt;br /&gt;- 2000: Women Uniting for Peace&lt;br /&gt;- 1999: World Free of Violence against Women&lt;br /&gt;- 1998: Women and Human Rights&lt;br /&gt;- 1997: Women at the Peace Table&lt;br /&gt;- 1996: Celebrating the Past, Planning for the Future&lt;br /&gt;- 1975: First IWD celebrated by the United Nations&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.internationalwomensday.com/theme.asp' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.internationalwomensday.com/theme.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEnd--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEEnd--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In /k/opitiam... whats u think shud be a proper theme for this year?</description>

            <title>China 1st Democracy ?</title>

The residents rebelled against the local officials over land grabbing, a burning issue and the prime catalyst of protests in China. Premier Wen Jiabao’s recent acknowledgement of these arbitrary seizures of farmland in China during his February 2012 tour of Guangdong was the first official recognition by the party’s top leadership. The constitution of a freely and fairly elected village committee to supervise the upcoming March elections in Wukan as a result of the uprising raises a few questions: What was the difference between the Wukan movement and other mass movements in China which led the government to yield to the villagers’ demands? What has been the impact on Wukan? Will the Wukan movement set a trend for other villages in China with similar problems?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.ipcs.org/article/china/chinas-wukan-uprising-first-step-towards-democracy-3583.html' target='_blank'&gt;more....&lt;/a&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEnd--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEEnd--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--QuoteBegin--&gt;&lt;div class='quotetop'&gt;QUOTE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class='quotemain'&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEBegin--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#39;Opportunity for democracy&amp;#39;: Rebel Chinese village votes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/j/MSNBC/Components/Photo/_new/120303_china-village-votes.photoblog600.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'&gt;Zhang Bincha, a 44-year old resident of Wukan, cheers after voting in village elections on Saturday. Residents of a small village in China went to the polls in a leadership election being hailed as a milestone for those demanding more say in the running of the one-party state.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WUKAN, China -- Residents of a southern Chinese fishing village gathered on Saturday to elect a new administrative authority that many hail as a model for greater grassroots democracy in China following an uncompromising standoff over land grabs and abuse of power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wukan, nestled on the Guangdong coast with a picturesque harbor flanked by hills, has emerged from nowhere as a symbol of rural activism and electoral reforms nationwide, embracing rare freedoms granted by provincial authorities in December to defuse a major flashpoint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anger at corrupt local officials turned to fury last September when villagers ransacked the Wukan government offices. Things boiled over again in December, when villagers drove out authorities and barricaded themselves in for 10 days before provincial officials stepped in to resolve the dispute, offering new elections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Villagers defiant as government creates new narrative&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unlike the many flareups over land grabs and corruption across China every year, Wukan residents have now moved beyond organized protest to organized politics in a gritty bid to win back illegally sold farmland and safeguard future rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of the 12,000 residents gathered outside a school on an overcast morning, eager to cast ballots for candidates vying for seats on a seven-person village committee. Many are backing former protest leaders, including those jailed in December.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While village elections have been permitted for decades, Wukan has pushed the boundaries, led by a visionary rebel village leader turned party secretary and a vanguard of young activists able to unify the village against higher authorities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;PhotoBlog: Chinese villagers defy government in standoff over land rights&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;For the first time in decades, this is an opportunity for democracy. Both myself and the villagers like this,&amp;quot; said Lin Zuluan, Wukan&amp;#39;s respected 67-year-old party secretary, a candidate to lead the village committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anger over land grabs has captured the attention of China&amp;#39;s leadership. Premier Wen Jiabao recently vowed to make village committee elections an authentic channel for public opinion, acknowledging China has failed to give adequate protection against rural land seizures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rebellious Chinese village takes baby steps toward democracy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;The root of the problem is that the land is the property of the farmers, but this right has not been protected in the way it should be,&amp;quot; said Wen during a trip to Guangdong in February.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Wukan experience has proved a beacon for civil rights activists, academics and journalists, who have flocked to the village to observe the polls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Wukan is an example for us,&amp;quot; said Hua Youjuan, a village chief from Huangshan in eastern China, where villagers have also rallied against corruption.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;What Wukan has achieved through its solidarity is something we can learn from.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Behind-the-scenes influence&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a sign of growing international interest, the U.S. government sent an observer to the poll. &amp;quot;We continue to monitor developments in Wukan closely,&amp;quot; a U.S. diplomat who asked not to be identified said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The polls follow a months-long struggle that saw villagers clash with riot police, ransack government offices, expel a corrupt old guard and form a self-administrative authority. It all came to a head in December, when villagers barricaded themselves in against riot police.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/j/MSNBC/Components/Photo/_new/120303_wukan-votes.photoblog600.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'&gt;Residents of Wukan fill in forms during voting in village elections on Saturday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guangdong provincial authorities, led by ambitious Communist Party leader Wang Yang, intervened, naming the rebel leader Lin as party secretary in a surprising concession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Behind the scenes, authorities at the city and county level have been exerting a high degree of control. Some fear clans and allies of former village chief Xue Chang, whom many accuse of pocketing millions from selling off collective farmland, are vying to maintain influence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Journalist beatings erase Wukan optimism&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Xue Jianwan, the daughter of Xue Jinbo, a protest leader who was abducted and died in police detention in December, said senior local officials recently urged her to drop from running as a candidate for the village committee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She said taking part in the election might mean she could no longer continue in her job as a teacher given electoral rules.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;The more they don&amp;#39;t want me to take part, the more I want to,&amp;quot; said Xue in an interview before election day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other young leaders, who played a key role in publicising corruption that saw hundreds of hectares of Wukan farmland sold off in illegal deals, have spoken of extensive surveillance, police pressure and fears of reprisals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In February, Wukan elected an election committee to oversee Saturday&amp;#39;s proceedings. Now the stakes are higher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The seven-member village committee, including a village chief and two deputies, will have power over local finances and the sale and apportioning of collectively owned village land.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Residents hope the frequent practice of higher officials controlling lucrative land deals will become a thing of the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://worldnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/03/03/10567378-opportunity-for-democracy-rebel-chinese-village-votes' target='_blank'&gt;http://worldnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/...e-village-votes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEnd--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEEnd--&gt;</description>

            <title>Chuck Norris bridge Slovaks to Austria</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2241050</link>
            <description>&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;Will Slovaks walk over Chuck Norris to Austria?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/images/uploads/2012/february2012/24/feat_norris.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BRATISLAVA, Slovakia, Feb 24 — Slovaks have been voting overwhelmingly in favour of naming a new pedestrian and cycling bridge near their capital for 1980s action film and TV star Chuck Norris.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The two other top names in the running for the bridge, which will span the Morava river and cross the border to Austria, were Maria Theresa after an Austro-Hungarian empress and the Devinska cycling bridge in honour of the closest village.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Norris (picture), a martial arts expert-turned film star, is known for playing tough guy characters in such classic movies as “Lone Wolf McQuade,” “Missing in Action” and “The Delta Force.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The actor’s work has become a popular source of kitschy fun among Slovaks and a mainstay for local jokes about macho strength and invincibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final decision will be up to a regional assembly. But regional Governor Pavol Freso has said it would follow the wishes of the people in the Internet ballot where Norris leads as the top choice for the bridge’s name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The same way as we have so far been building it in full sight of the public, we will seek that the name is accepted by the public as well,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The voting will run until April. As of yesterday, 1,157 votes have backed Norris, 74 per cent of the total, leaving the runner up ‘Maria Theresa Bridge’ far behind with eight per cent. — Reuters&lt;br /&gt;</description>

            <description>&lt;img src='http://www.chocosuisse.ch/web/dms/chocosuisse/web/history/pioneers/previews_140/peter.JPG' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'&gt;Daniel Peter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Daniel Peter (1836 - 1919) was responsible for another development which had a far-reaching impact on chocolate making everywhere. In 1875, after many years of experimentation and research, Peter found a way to make milk chocolate. He was not the first to try, but all attempts to use normal milk had failed because its high water content meant it was unable to combine satisfactorily with the cocoa paste and the chocolate soon turned rancid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peter&amp;#39;s breakthrough came when he combined cocoa with the condensed milk invented by Henri Nestlé seven years earlier. Milk chocolate for drinking appeared in 1875, followed by eating chocolate in the 1880s. The addition of milk took away the bitter taste of the chocolate and was a great success. Even today, milk chocolate accounts for over 80% of the Swiss market, although dark chocolate is making a come-back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The addition of milk enabled manufacturers to cut down on the proportion of expensive cocoa in their products. The invention also gave a boost to thousands of farmers, as it greatly increased the demand for milk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Peter, the son of a butcher, had not started out as a chocolate maker. He first tried his hand at making candles, but the invention of kerosene lamps completely undermined the industry. He became interested in chocolate after he met Fanny Cailler, the eldest daughter of François-Louis Cailler, whom he subsequently married. It was when their eldest daughter, Rose, proved difficult to breastfeed that Nestlé, who happened to be their neighbour, suggested giving her his &amp;quot;farine lactée&amp;quot;, a milk food for babies. This in turn inspired Peter to develop his new product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://www.swissworld.org/typo3temp/pics/6710f8bb69.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&amp;quot;The world&amp;#39;s first milk chocolate&amp;quot;. A typical poster vaunts the healthy Swiss peasant life and the beautiful Swiss mountains. &lt;/span&gt;</description>

            <title>Nicotine make u smart</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2186942</link>
            <description>&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&lt;b&gt;Nicotine could ward off memory loss, says study&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WASHINGTON, Jan 11 — Older adults who are starting to have problems with memory may benefit from small amounts of nicotine therapy, according to a US study published on Monday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The research in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, included 74 non-smokers with an average age of 76. Half were given a daily nicotine patch for six months, the other half wore a placebo patch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those on nicotine therapy showed better results on cognitive tests for attention, memory, as well as how fast and consistently they could process information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After six months on the patch, the nicotine group “regained 46 per cent of normal performance for age on long-term memory, whereas the placebo group worsened by 26 per cent over the same time period,” said the study.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, the study authors cautioned that older adults should not begin to smoke cigarettes to help their brain function, and said more research is needed to see if the positive effects endure over a long period of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, nicotine is not likely to help people whose memory already works well, said study author Paul Newhouse, director of the Center for Cognitive Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Centre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“If you’re already functioning fine, but slip down the hill, nicotine will push you back up toward the top. A little bit of the drug makes poor performers better,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Too much, and it makes them worse again, so there’s a range. The key issue is to find the sweet spot where it helps.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The study was funded by the National Institute on Aging, and received no money from pharmaceutical companies, Newhouse said. Nicotrol 15 mg patches were donated for the study by Pfizer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The link between nicotine and memory was first shown in the 1980s. Nicotine stimulates receptors in the brain that are important for thinking and memory. People with Alzheimer’s disease tend to lose some of those receptors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jeremy Koppel, a geriatric psychiatrist at Zucker Hillside Hospital in Glen Oaks, New York, who was not involved in the study, said more research is needed to gauge the true nature of nicotine’s potential benefit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“While this small study did find that patients treated with transdermal nicotine performed better on tests of attention, and some tests of memory, there was no evidence of global improvement in the group treated with nicotine,” Koppel said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Further, this study does not provide evidence that nicotine can reverse or slow the progression from MCI (mild cognitive impairment) to Alzheimer’s disease.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Newhouse said he hopes to next examine how nicotine therapy might change the curve of cognitive decline over time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“I don’t think it’s going to become a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease by itself. That would be like trying to rebuild a house after a fire when the fire’s still going,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“You need to prevent the fire. The holy grail would be changing the deterioration curve.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People who wore the patch reported some nausea, dizziness, and mild weight loss, but did not report any withdrawal symptoms once they stopped wearing it. — afprelaxnews.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/features/article/nicotine-could-ward-off-memory-loss-says-study/' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/feature...oss-says-study/&lt;/a&gt;</description>

All we wanted was that all the trade unions, all the workers, all the women, all the organisations should join in a broad front to oppose the return of the (British) Governor to rule the country,” MDU founding member Lim Kean Chye said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Special attention was paid to the All-Malaya Hartal of 1948, which MCLM president Haris Ibrahim described as “the most graphic evidence” that Malaysians of different races have always been able to cooperate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It’s amazing that they managed, even then without internet, to pull off something on that scale. We’ve never had a race relations problem in this country. It’s just Umno and its sidekicks,” he told The Malaysian Insider.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ABU will kick off its campaign to disseminate the video among rural Malay voters at Kolej Universiti Islam Zulkifli Muhammad (KUIZM) in Gombak tonight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Haris’s website, the group has already distributed some 200,000 hard copies of the video in villages in the past month alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/anti-umno-group-targets-malay-heartland-with-viral-video/' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysi...th-viral-video/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEnd--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--QuoteEEnd--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wondering whats the video contain, i search around, found it and post it here b4 it get deleted or banned,...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;how true u think, it&amp;#39;s ur own discretion, but pls share ur opinion...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]ZvsL4gd9LR8[/YOUTUBE]&lt;br /&gt;on minutes 5:14 interview with TAR, saying May 13th is a conspiracy of certain group to unseat him,.. and only today i know Rukun Negara only created on 1970 after May 13th (minutes 7:20)..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]7dY1PNvrRKY&amp;amp;feature=related[/YOUTUBE]&lt;br /&gt;this is a replay of  &lt;a href='http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2110250&amp;view=findpost&amp;p=46746759' target='_blank'&gt;&amp;quot;Sepuluh Tahun Sebelum Merdeka&amp;quot;&lt;/a&gt; u can skip this if u already watch it..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]KFfKkeIVyFM&amp;amp;feature=related[/YOUTUBE]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]5Zre0-jN7v4&amp;amp;feature=related[/YOUTUBE]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]arI697lUklQ&amp;amp;feature=related[/YOUTUBE]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[YOUTUBE]dw7rJhgOzro&amp;amp;feature=related[/YOUTUBE]</description>

            <description>&lt;span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'&gt;&lt;b&gt;Standard users: Hentikan jualan sos cili 1Malaysia&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ujian makmal ke atas sos cili yang dijual di Kedai Rakyat 1Malaysia (KR1M) mendapati tahap raksa dan plumbum melebihi paras yang dibenarkan dalam Akta Peraturan-peraturan Makanan 1985.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://media1.malaysiakini.com/374/57336a5a80d3d2b4be93eed9ad1e3e3c.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dalam laporan draf penyelidikan perbandingan produk yang diperolehi oleh Malaysiakini, Persatuan Pengguna-Pengguna Standard Malaysia (Standards Users) mendapati 3.64ppm plumbum dan 0.08ppm raksa atau merkuri dalam sos cili 1Malaysia.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sedangkan, tahap yang dibenarkan untuk sos cili adalah 2ppm bagi plumbun manakala 0.05ppm untuk raksa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laporan itu membandingkan sos cili jenama 1Malaysia dengan tiga jenama lain, iaitu Tesco Value, Life dan Lingham. Semua jenama berkenaan didapati mematuhi had yang ditetapkan, malah kadar mereka juga jauh lebih rendah daripada yang dibenarkan oleh undang-undang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ujian bagi produk berkenaan dijalankan oleh Unipeq Sdn Bhd, sebuah syarikat yang ditauliahkan di bawah Skim Akreditasi Makmal Malaysia (SAMM) oleh Jabatan Standard Malaysia.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ketika dihubungi, ketua pegawai eksekutif, Standard Users, DN Ratna berkata, organisasinya telah menjalankan penyelidikan seumpama itu selama lebih tiga tahun dan memutuskan untuk memasukkan produk 1Malaysia dalam kajian kerana pengguna sedang digalakkan membeli produk itu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='http://media1.malaysiakini.com/374/f404d31197327b0d11f613538fbc2306.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Katanya, sampel sos cili berkenaan diperolehi dari kedai-kedai runcit dan pasar raya besar di sekitar Lembah Klang antara bulan Ogos dan September lalu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mengulas keputusan kajian itu, Ratna menggesa Kementerian Kesihatan untuk segera menghentikan jualan sos cili 1Malaysia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Kesan logam berat itu boleh menyebabkan keracunan. Jika seseorang menggunakan jenama itu bagi jangkamasa yang lama, logam itu akan terkumpul di rambut, tisu dan bahagian-bahagian badan yang lain ... Jika mereka orang yang terdedah itu tidak sihat, maka kesannya lebih cepat dan nyata.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Ini berkaitan logam berat, mereka (Kementerian Kesihatan) sepatutnya tidak membenarkan jualan produk itu sehingga mereka sahkannya dengan ujian sendiri dan mengambil tindakan lanjut,&amp;quot; katanya.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Menurut laporan itu, raksa yang berlebihan boleh menyebabkan kerosakan kepada sistem saraf pusat tunjang serta sistem endokrin, yang berpotensi membawa kepada kerosakan buah pinggang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/181479' target='_blank'&gt;http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/181479&lt;/a&gt;</description>
