KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 The Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) views custodial deaths seriously, including three cases that were reported by a local news outlet yesterday.

KUALA LUMPUR, May 28 ― Bursa Malaysia pared some of its earlier losses but remained in the red zone at mid-morning, as selling persisted in certain index-lined counters. At 11.05am, the benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI (FBM KLCI) shrank 7.19 points, or 0.45 per cent, to 1,586.71 from.

VERBAL
faux pas have become part and parcel of the culture for some of those in positions of power in Malaysia.
The latest of such indiscretion comes from none other than the man whose responsibility, until yesterday, was to ensure the safety of passengers in the public transportation service that he headed.
On Monday, two light rail transit (LRT) trains collided head-on. Sixty-seven passengers landed in hospital, three with critical injuries.
In reaction to the crash, Tajuddin Abdul Rahman
(pix), chairman of Prasarana, that operates the LRT service, had the cheek to say with a broad smile that “one train kissed another”. He paid for that indiscretion yesterday by getting the boot.
