Here is part of my speech delivered today, 21 October 2008, on the Judicial Service and Legal Service which are under the realm of The Attorney General Judicial Service consisting of all the Judges in the Session Court and Magistrate Court.
Badan Perkhidmatan Kehakiman mesti diasingkan
daripada Perkhidmatan Perundangan.
Pada 15-09-2008 enam Perseruhjaya Kehakiman
Of course, the Attorney General wants to control all the lower Court Judges i.e. Session and Magistrate. Very few lower court Judges dare to stand up against the DPP, who are normally their senior in ranking but not service.
Thank you for bring up real sorry state of affairs. It is hoped that the government will do something about it. this is one of the major reforms that Bodohwi should be doing.
In fact getting rid of Bodohwi in itself is a big reform for Malaysia.
YB Wee you are spot on with this subject. It is totally a true reflection of the situation. We need a real change to the current state of things. We need independent Judges not only in the High Court and above but Session and Magistrate Courts too.
Justice must not only be done, it must also be SEEN to be done. How can it be seen to be done when such a situation exist whereby Session Court judges are under the wing of the Attorney General. They should be under the judicial service like the judges of the High Court, Court of Appeal and Federal Court so that they will at least be seen to be independent.
We hope that the BN Government will take heed of what have been said and suggested by YB Wee in Parliament.
Mat Sirat: Fikiran sempit dengan tiada substance. Habis masa sahaja.
Absolutely right that Session Court judges and Magistrates are not independent because they are under the control of Attorney-General when they should be under the control of Ketua Hakim negara.
This must be changed otherwise there will not be justice in the lower court because the lower judges are beholden to the Attorney-General Chambers.
Mat Sirat is just showing is a Mat Bodoh after all. We are here to engage in a debate not on a personal attack with no basis except. He was showing his mentality equivalent to the Mat Rempit. Why can’t believe why a human being can be so shallow? YB Wee you shouldn’t allow such idiot to dirty your blog.
I want to read about facts and intellectual arguments not making personal attacks from such a Mat Rempit. Please don’t give him the space to exhibit his idiotic behaviour.
Based on your argument and facts presented I do agree with you that the judges in the Session Court and Magistrate Court can not be seen be independent.
Please push for changes.
Mat sirat ke, mat sirap ke, pergi jadi mat bandung lagi baik
