mThe Royal Malaysian Police (RMP), which had made known its objection to the setting up of the Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission (IPCMC), has published ten reasons why IPCMC is not needed.
Opposition party in Malaysia should make their stand on whether they support or oppose the setting up of IPCMC. I think oppositon whip would not follow Barisan whip in opposing a suggestion by their counter party.
Blogger Jeff Ooi has list the reason we need IPCMC on his blog.
In The NST, the PM was quoted as saying:
Abdullah stressed that he had reminded Attorney-General Tan Sri Gani Patail to consider all the proposals made. "As far as I am concerned, the IPCMC is important to me. I have handed the matter over to the A-G for his action," he said.
Malaysian Business's Editors-in-Chief, A Kadir Jasin has express his disappointment on some UMNO leader opposed the setting up of IPCMC in Parliament and on the press in his column "Other Thots".
The threat has been removed from Police website: quoted screeshots.
Clearly, even the Prime Minister feel it is difficult to manage such a large police force and UMNO leader feel difficult to offend the police.
It might be time to reconsider my suggestion to let police under state government rather then under federal government.
