To those who wrote in suggesting another petition to His Majesty the Yang DiPertuan Agong on the matter of the intended appointment of Zaki as President of the Court of Appeal, here it is.
What appears below is the English text of the substance of the petition.
As done previously, the actual petition will be in Bahasa Malaysia, complete with the requisites to meet the requirements of protocol for a communication from the rakyat to ruler.
The final text will be posted once the translation and protocol requirements have been completed.
There is greater urgency to have this petition delivered at the soonest possible. In fact, I would like to try and have this delivered by next week.
If you want to lend your support to this petition to His Majesty, please send an e-mail to :
Again, this is a petition to our Agung. As such, please do not send in pseudonyms. I must ask that you state your name in full together with your NRIC number.
Those of you who had signed the earlier petition and have agreed to have their details retained in the database presently being set up, I must trouble you to send in another e-mail with your name and ic number. As I have stated earlier, the retention of your particulars in the database was not for the purpose of automatice utilisation but for purposes of communication of initiatives.
____________________________
Petition from citizens to His Majesty the Yang DiPertuan Agong praying for the deferment of the appointment of the President of the Court of Appeal pending the findings and recommendations of the intended Royal Commission of InquiryÂ
1. As a reaction to the disclosure of the now infamous VK Lingam video in mid-September this year, on 25/10/2007 5,035 loyal subjects petitioned Your Majesty to voice their concerns about, amongst other things, how very senior judges were bypassed in favour of junior judges in the numerous promotion exercises that took place during the tenure of Tun Ahmad Fairuz,. Your Majesty’s petitioners had also prayed that Your Majesty might be moved to :
1.1Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â direct the establishment of a Royal Commission of Inquiry to embark upon a thorough examination of the problems presently affecting the judiciary as exposed by the VK Lingam video and to make all necessary recommendations to set the judiciary right; and
1.2Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â direct the immediate establishment of an independent Commission for the appointment and promotion of judges to the High Courts, the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court.Â
2. On 16/11/2007, the Prime Minister announced that a Royal Commission of Inquiry would be established to look into the matter of the VK Lingam video. The terms of reference of such a Royal Commission have not been announced and we are informed through media reports nominations for appointment to such a Royal Commission have been forwarded to Your Majesty and await the approval of Your Majesty.
3. On 5/12/2007, the rakyat were informed that Your Majesty had assented to the appointment of Dato’ Abdul Hamid bin Haji Mohamad as the Chief Justice of the Federal Court, his appointment taking effect from 1/11/2007. We are most grateful to Your Majesty and Their Royal Highnesses the Malay Rulers for this exercise of wisdom and care in the selection of this most senior and respected judge to lead our judiciary. We, the rakyat, place much hope upon Dato’ Abdul Hamid to do all that is necessary to restore public confidence in the judiciary as the third independent arm of government.
4. We, the rakyat, are however deeply concerned at the parallel announcement that Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki bin Tun Azmi, who was only just appointed as a judge in September, 2007 and that too, directly to the Federal Court, had been selected to be the President of the Court of Appeal, his tenure to commence from a date to be fixed.
5. Our concern at the intended appointment of Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki as the next President of the Court of Appeal is grounded on the following :
5.1             Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki is just about the most junior judge amongst all judges of the High Courts, the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court;
5.2             Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki is the most junior amongst the 8 Federal Court judges, and his selection as President of the Court of Appeal would most unfairly raise questions about the competence of the other 7 very much more senior judges of the Federal Court ;
5.3              Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki has been very intimately involved in UMNO, having at one time held the position of chairman of the party’s election committee, deputy chairman of its disciplinary board of appeal and party legal adviser. It is unclear if he is still a card carrying member of UMNO or, if he has ceased to be one, when he ceased being such;
5.4             Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki has been linked to financial scandals involving UMNO that were allegedly bailed out by the government;
5.5              Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki has been very intimately involved in the corporate world as a major shareholder and / or director in several corporate entities, many of which were known to have business dealings with the government; and
5.6Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Tan Sri Dato’ Zaki had previously been embroiled in a very public personal scandal in which he was implicated of destroying documentary evidence, a matter that led to his voluntary resignation from the UMNO discplinary committee for fear of impeaching the integrity of the other members of the said committee. Â
6. It is widely recognized that public confidence in the Judiciary is at a very low level and that the Judiciary is no longer as respected, both nationally and internationally, as it once was. This has been occasioned, in part, through partisan selection and promotion of judges by reference to their allegiance rather than merit. His Royal Highness, the Sultan of Perak, a former Lord President himself, officially recognized this regrettable state of affairs at the Malaysian Law Conference in October this year.
7. We, the rakyat, believe that the independent Commission for the appointment and promotion of judges prayed for earlier would go a long way to helping avoid scandals like the VK Lingam video that have seemingly been allowed for by the manner in which judges have been appointed and promoted and restoring confidence in the Judiciary. The appropriateness of such a mechanism may be one of the matters the Royal Commission may take into consideration.
8. For these many reasons, we, the rakyat, now pray that Your Majesty may be so moved to defer the appointment of the President of the Court of Appeal until the intended Royal Commission of Inquiry deliver its findings and recommendations. We believe that it would not be inappropriate for the Chief Justice to discharge the functions of the President in an ‘acting’ capacity. This was in fact the case prior to the appointment of Dato’ Abdul Hamid Bin Haji Mohamad as President.

I may be young and impatience but I have to say this.
I and some other 5000 Malaysians have signed the last petition asking the Agong to intervene in the Lingam tape fiasco and the rot in judiciary. Until today, the development has not been satisfactory, at least to me. We petitioned, yet very little or almost nothing we heard from HRH. There is no communication between us and the Agong. We do not know where HRH stands in issues that we greatly concern. The only thing that we have is a hope that HRH is with us, the people. But we can’t keep hoping for another 50 years.
Don’t tell me that it is the protocols and bureaucracies that keep HRH seemingly in silence. He is the Agong, we have vested our utmost trust in Him. He stands above everybody else in this country. He has the right to make his point clear. Tell us what he is doing about all the matters we petitioned about or tell us if HRH not doing anything. At least, we know.
Dear Mr Haris, I just need you to tell me one reason why I should sign the petition. Why we should petition more to the Agong when HRH haven’t even responded to our last one.
khairil,
Why?
Because from what I can see, Zaki’s appointment has not been firmed up as yet.
And maybe, His Majesty is holding out.
And it would not hurt you and I one bit to show some support for a monarch who might well be trying to do something for the country.
Good enough?

Dear Harris
Appreciate greatly all your sacrifice of time and effort in all these intiatives. You are truly anak Bangsa Malaysia and I want to be able to stand proudly shoulder to shoulder with you on this.
I think quite a few petitioners who signed up the previous Petition to the Agung are as skeptical as Khairil, for one, my own husband. I am sure I can convince him to sign up again but for the sake of our beloved negaraku, tanah tumpah darah ku, I now plead with our King and all the Sultans to give us some signal directly or indirectly that they have heard our desperate voice and will not betray our trust in them.
I will email you to sign up after this posting.
Lynn,
I understand the reservations of some.
However, I think we must not lose sight of the delicate nature of the politics in this country and the fact that we, the rakyat, have in the past turned our backs on the monarchy when it was attacked by the politicians. A case in point is the amendment to the constitution to remove the Agong’s power of veto and substitute the same only with delaying powers.
When one understands that there are attendant risks to the monarchy when it steps into the political fray, then perhaps one can begin to understand why it is we that need to send the strongest signal to the monarchy that we are prepared to stand and be counted.

Haris,
You got mail. Plus I’ve sent an appeal to 14 others to join in.
Meanwhile, with regards to the ‘silence’ from the DYMM, may I say that the Constitutional amendments in the early 90s made by politicians were to curtail royalty ‘indiscretions’, hence, the setting up of the Royal Court and the dilution of the DYMM’s veto powers on certain issues as you’ve mentioned above.
Furthermore, we do not have a distinct and independent Constitutional court in our legal system, therefore, herein lies our predicament on matters relating to the Constitution. Who decides what’s best for us? The politicians have done so under the pretext of a majority mandate in parliament which, unfortunately, also means we screwed ourselves. An election every five years does not provide the necessary checks and balances in a thriving democracy. We need an effective judiciary as well.
Unless, the politicians can agree to set up a ‘Politicians Court’ to curtail their indiscretions which I doubt will ever happen. *Gee, I can visualise NA doing a jaw-dropping stunt in Putrajaya*

My thoughts are the same as Khairil and Lynn Cheang but the thing is we must push forward, there is no other way about it.
So long as someone is holding the torch, we must give our fullest and firm support, if not the light of the torch will diminished and so are we.
There is still hope and I pray that what we fight and stand for is right and good for the country.
So my dear friends, let us not give up hope even if there is no direct or indirect respond from the Agong. Just remember that the gomen will put all their pressure on the Agong and whoever is trying to right their wrong doing.
Just look at their ridiculous charges on the Hindraf peaceful marchers and now they are linking them to terrorist. They will not stop at anything to protect their pot of gold.

99% of the population won’t mind giving out their full name, ic no, home address, email, phone number, etc. If the are lured with a chance of winning a holiday somewhere through lucky draw. When the true intention of the company was just to collect your information.
Now, back to the petition, the petition is to be handed over to the Agong. It will never reach the dirty hands of UMNO and their underlings.
Secondly, if we go by consistency of action by Agong, it would only be natural if Agong rejects the appointment of Zaki to PCA at this moment, if not forever.
Thirdly, UMNO and its jin-jin have been working over time to cause a rift between the people and the Agong. It is high time to show that we the rakyat are a mature lot, and will not be easily swayed by the evil schemes of UMNO and its minions.
So, lets support our Agong. As he makes this VERY DIFFICULT decision.

1. Is Witness Protection Act a point to go through before RCI can act? Or, any witness will be protected at least with an Act?
2. Should the jobs of the RCI be specified or at least have a framework, such that the government cannot hijack the appointment of RCI to do limited investigations such as last panel?
So the appointment of RCI should carry some other terms and conditions or a full proposal of an RCI before HRH should or could endorsed.
3. If RCI is to be independent of the President of Justice or CJ, it will be another matter.

If only someone could write a simple php program to make the signing more automated…
For example, a web page for the petition is created with the option of keying in your personal email. A mail will then be sent from the savethejudiciary@gmail. Upon receiving the email, the petitioner will then reply the mail with his/her personal information straight to savethejudiciarr@gmail.com.
This method will be much easier, as the petitioner will not have the need to do a cut and paste job on the email address. Some are just that bloody lazy to do it.
Let’s start another walk to deliver that petition. My legs are itching real bad.

whether the HRH will act or not is not the issue here – but the more signatures we gather – the greater signal we are sending the powers to be – dont treat us like fools.
Malik has been very polite – if indeed Zaki is a man of intergrity – he should have turned down the ‘direct’ elevation to the FC.

Dear Harris:
As usual, you have rightly highlighted many important points regarding Justice Zaki Azmi. As a lawyer in the field, your views command even greater respect.
Regarding his junior status (Points 5.1 and 5.2), this should not by itself be a negative. I argue the very opposite; we rely too heavily on seniority status, especially in the public service, at the expense of competence. If Zaki is otherwise competent and eminently qualified, he should be appointed.
President Bush appointed Justice Roberts as the US Chief Justice, ahead of some very senior and distinguished fellow Supreme Court judges. That did not in any way detract on the competence or integrity of his colleagues.
Similarly your point that Zaki being a “corporate man” should disqualify him, I argue the contrary. We need judges who have as wide an experience as possible. The problem with Malaysian judges is that they are very insular, intellectually and by experience; they are all products of the government service. Increasingly in today’s world, litigations often involve complex business issues. How can we expect judges who have no inkling of the corporate world to render judgments on such complex disputes?
Already many multinational corporations in Malaysia require an arbitration clause in their contracts in case of disputes. This reflects their distrust of our judges. Lee Kuan Yew appointed Yong Pun Huw as Chief Justice; he too was a corporate man and that enhanced his reputation and ability as a judge.
As for the various corporate scandals in which Zaki was allegedly involved, yes they should be investigated fully; and where criminal liabilities exist, they should be pursued vigorously regardless whether it is a lawyer, accountant, or politician involved.
Regarding your point that Zaki’s involvement in UMNO (5.3) should disqualify him, I disagree. Again I argue that this fact could potentially enhance his ability as a judge. Chief Justices Warren and Burger were all politicians once (both were elected state governors) and both went on to be legendary chief justices. Likewise Justice O’Connor’s experience as a legislator gave her a unique perspective. Her legal reasonings are much more grounded in the real world.
Our highest court should have a variety of individuals with equally varied backgrounds and perspectives.
To me, the most important disqualifying factor with Zaki is your last point (5.6). Because of his personal scandals regarding his marriage in Thailand and his subsequent attemtpt to nullify that marriage has on the surface all the elements of obstructing justice. He should be prosecuted for that. If guilty he should be jailed, much less appointed a judge.
If UMNO considers him unqualified to sit on UMNO Disciplinary Council, or if he himself considers it so because of the above issue, how can we expect him to sit on the highest bench?
Again, I appreciate reading your blog and the insightful discussions you bring to the fore.
M. Bakri Musa

December 9, 2007
I’ve sent you the email but to echo what devilsadvocate said earlier – TS Zaki should have courteously refrained from the appointment, if he was a man of intergrity.
In fact, he should have recused from appointment as Federal judge given his rather sordid past.

The statements issued by the rulers lately have not been very encouraging, in fact, the opposite would be more accurate. The statements are quite similar to the ones made by the govenment leaders. Even the cries of daulat tuanku has a hollow ring to it now compared to before the rulers’statements were issued. I’ll still lend you my unwavering support in your meaningful quest for justice and Bangsa Malaysia but my expectations on the rulers have somewhat been dented by recent development.

That our judiaciary is dominated by one race is already a problem enough. To have it under the control of people appointed dubiously will take our country backward. How come there is so much evil in our leaders that they must have control over the judges. It’s frightening. The same people who proclaims their religiousness and their fear of God are the ones who are corrupting the judiciary and perpetrating a culture of subservience.

Haris,
I have enough of this UMNO nonsense. In my younger days I saw a Postman grew rich on becoming ADUN. Then, I saw a school mate who only reached Form 4 becoming rich the same way. After that my former class-mate became ADUN. Although I’m not quite sure of his financial status when he died not too long ago, I’m nevertheless very sure that he was no smarter than me to deserve a seat as an ADUN. Now, since another kampung-mate is still running high as an EXCO despite numerous allegations of improprieties againt him, things are overdue for change. Unfortunately, my protest votes (in favour of PAS, of course) have not borne much fruits to date. If the same frustration has also befallen everyone who acted as I did the past several elections, the only choice left is to give you full support in your endeavour. I’m with you

I support the petition to the Agung to rescind the normination of Tan Sri Zaki as President of Court of Appeal due to lack of seniority ,conflict of interest and question of integrity and character and political linkages with the ruling party in power.There are many more competent,thrustworthy and independent judges in the current judiciary to be norminated and for better transparency.A multiracial normination would create greater credence to the besmitched judiciary and current climate of mistrust of the executive by civil society.

How could a man not fit to sit in the Umno Disciplinary Committee be recommended to our beloved King for appointment to a hight judiciary position.
The marriage just outside the malaysian border, in a textile shop and the purported burning of the marriage certificate speakes volumes of his personal integrity.
Couldn’t the Prime Minister find someone decent for a respectable job?
God bless this country under the zzzzzz slumberman.

This seems like a doomed cause. But, who knows, perhaps the PM is really trying to present the Agong with a forced decision. Just maybe the petition may help the Agong to decide on what is just and fair, rather than what the UMNOputras wants. So, I’ll add my name to the petition.

Perhaps His Majesty will again sigh and say “One more thing for me to do!”. It is unfortunate that political machinations are pulling HM unceremoniously out of his largely ceremonial role. But, in this instance, he is our last legitimate resort.
For the future, it is critical that the 2/3 majority in parliament be negated. But the immediate need is a credible judiciary that can deal fairly with electoral irregularities.
Though HM needs to act with subtlety, he has the power to push for judicial reform. May Allah give him the strength.

I thought I read in the Sun yesterday, that Zaki was already sworn in together with the new CJ. Is it true?
If it’s true then, there is no point in petitioning anymore.

Haris, I just wonder if the Agung really knows our plight without a petition? Don’t tell me that the BN govt even shuts down all IT communication in the palace and the Agung is not allowed to access the computer? Come on, we are now in the 21st century where everybody is in the same playing field and I hope our Agung is not like what was played those days during the P Ramlee movies where he is totally out of touch with his rakyat depending on his scheming ministers to feed him with false info. I really hope the Agung will be down to earth to be in real touch with the rakyats just like the King and Queen of Thailand whereby they always go around meeting the citizens who reciprocate them will full rakyat support should the ruling govt fails them.
