We are not power crazy, say Pakatan Harapan leaders as they seek a common ground for PM candidate
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s opposition parties have denied that they are power crazy for their attempt to wrest back control in parliament, adding that Pakatan Harapan (PH) and its allies must work towards a common ground to reclaim electoral mandate. The statement, jointly issued by Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) president Mohamad Sabu and Democratic Action Party (DAP) secretary-general Lim Guan Eng on Monday (Jun 22), came amid a difference of opinion within PH over the candidates for the prime minister post. “We have been criticised for not quickly regaining our rightful government and yet when we find the only realistic route left for success we are criticised as power crazy. This is unfair because while we are not afraid to be in opposition, the rakyat (people) voted for us in 2018 to be in government,” the statement read. PH was voted into Putrajaya in the 2018 general election with Dr Mahathir at the helm, but the administration collapsed in February after Mr Muhyiddin Yassin … [Read more...] about We are not power crazy, say Pakatan Harapan leaders as they seek a common ground for PM candidate

Recalcitrant thief who stole at 10 libraries across Singapore gets 8 years’ preventive detention
SINGAPORE: A stateless man who has been reoffending since 1989 went back to crime within six months of being released from jail, stealing phones and laptops at public libraries across the island. Sim Chye Lai, 47, was sentenced on Tuesday (Jun 23) to eight years' preventive detention, a year more than his last sentence. Preventive detention places recalcitrant offenders in jail for seven to 20 years to protect the public from the offender, with no reduction of the sentence for good behaviour. Sim pleaded guilty to six charges of theft, with another 10 charges taken into consideration. He mostly stole phones and laptops left unattended by people at libraries in Orchard, Clementi, Harbourfront, Bukit Panjang, Sembawang, Yishun, Tampines, Bedok, Pasir Ris and Bukit Batok.
