Lawyer by day, Loyar Buruk by night.

I often joke about what I do for a living. When asked I will say, I'm a lawyer by day & a loyar buruk by night. Nobody seems to believe me! I don't even look like a lawyer and of course don't have the loyar buruk look!

Lawyers can be loyar buruk too, at times. Committee members of the Bar Council are just loyar buruk to me! When Zaid became a minister, the Bar Council was the first to instigate Zaid on the apologies to Salleh Abas & gang. So many years ago in 1984, Zaid was the Secretary to the Bar Council. That was the exact reason for the support to Zaid. I don't know where Ambiga was then in 1984 and even if she was around, nobody seem to know her or remember her.

Lawyers do think they know the law better then anybody else. Some will go round telling others that he is a senior lawyer and should be given due respect etc etc . Some even go to the extend of ferrying all the law books from his office to the court when he appears in court. Do they really know the law? nay....

Knowing the law and practising the law are two different thing. The "conversion to Islam" forum held by the Bar Council clearly show how stupid they are. They know the law but they don't know the practical day to day running of the law. Why just talk of conversion to Islam? What about the conversion to Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism etc. when they are talking about the problems faced by the children of the converts. In the first place, what is the need for the forum?

Why pick on Islam when they know that according to the law as stated in the Federal Constitution, Islam is the official religion of the Malaysia. Of course they know the law but they are just stupid enough not to know what they did was stupid!

  1. This particular argument by the Bar Council seems to give the impression that they only have a shallow understanding of the type of multi racial/religious society that Malaysia has developed over the years and the forces that shape the thinking of the people.

    It is well known that the stability of Muslims society depends on Malays and the stability of Malays has a direct effect on the stability of the country.

  3. One cannot just call a lawyer when they have legal concerns to deal with. Remember that lawyers also have their own specialization in this field. For issues on family matters, you should call someone like a Family Lawyer who is known not only for processing documents but also on family One cannot just call a lawyer when they have legal concerns to deal with.

Prerogative of Mercy. Beg Your Pardon...

Ada terpandang video oleh Zaid Ibrahim tentang Pardon. Dia kata itu Prerogative of Mercy oleh Agong dan Raja2. High Prerogative of Mercy....or something like that lah. Itu betul. Tapi kalau nak kata process itu tidak ada procedure tak betul lah. Perlembagaan kita dan Akta Penjara telah tetapkan procedure nya. Agong & Raja2 juga perlu bertindak ikut Perlembagaan dan Undang2. Maka itu lah sebabnya digelar Raja Berperlembagaan. Dalam Perlembagaan ditetapkan mesti diadakan Pardons Board yang dipengerusikan oleh Tuanku sendiri. Antara lain Pardons Board itu akan bermesyuarat, pertimbangkan Petisyen yang dikemukakan, dapatkan nasihat dan pandangan ahli Pardons Board itu dan minta nasihat dan pandangan dari Peguam Negara. Bukan macam cerita filem purba. Bukan macam cerita Sultan Melaka ampunkan Hang Tuah untuk tujuan suruh bertikam dengan Hang Jebat. Bukan sebab Sultan Melaka menyesal tersalah hukum Hang Tuah. Bukan ampunkan Hang Tuah sebab Hang Jebat handal sangat dan hanya Hang Tuah sah

Setiausaha Politik selama 18 tahun (2000-2018)

Apabila YB Dato' Adnan Yaakob dilantik sebagai Menteri Besar Pahang, beliau telefon saya bertanya samada saya hendak tak datang ke Kuantan bekerja dengan dia. "Sam, Long ingat elok awak berubah angin. Mari datang Kuantan kerja dengan Long". Begitu lah kata-kata beliau. Kebetulan tahun 1999 itu saya kurang betul menumpukan perhatian kepada kerja-kerja sebagai lawyer. Anak saya baru meninggal pada 20hb August 1998. Dato' Adnan dilantik sebagai MB pada 25hb Mei 1999. "Come lah work with me. We see how I can place you in the MB's Office" Begitu lah Long Nan beritahu saya. "Boleh lah Long. Setahun dua boleh kot. I like myself more as lawyer, Long...." "OK...mari lah setahun dua" Itu jawab Dato' Adnan. "Tapi Long tak boleh lah bagi awak gaji besar Sam...." Sambung Dato' Adnan. "Kita tengok lah mana yang sesuai". Tambah beliau. Pada mulanya sejak bulan Mei 1999 itu saya hanya berulang alik KL-Kuantan. Tujuan

Melayu Ada Kelas Ke? (Bab 2)

Prodigal Maestro membawa ingatan saya ke tahun 1985. Pada tahun itu saya memulakan karier sebagai seorang lawyer setelah letak jawatan dari Judicial & Legal Service. Saya berkenalan dengan Dato' Mohd Ariff Ibrahim (DMA). Beliau seorang akauntan dengan Hanafiah Raslan Mohamad (HRM). Di HRM saya juga kenal Hassan Merican, Toby Lam dan lain-lain. Itu pun kerana saya dengan legal firm Messrs. Gill & Tang dan PS Gill adalah rakan kongsi saya. PS Gill adalah bapa kepada Asha Gill. Ya... Asha Gill dalam Astro tu! DMA adalah orang Kelantan dan isteri beliau Tengku Fatihah Ibni Sultan Ibrahim (Ku Ah) saudara kepada Sultanah Johor dan juga Raja Permaisuri Perlis. Saya terpegun dengan kereta Rolls Royce mereka nombor plat DA 3 (Dato' Ariff 3). Kalau tidak silap hanya ada 9 lagi Rolls Royce yang dimiliki oleh orang Melayu selain dari yang dimiliki oleh Sultan, Raja dan Yang DiPertuan Negeri. Raslan tidak minat Rolls Royce dan lebih gemar kepada Porche (atau Ferrari...saya dah tak i
