Inilah perangai buruk pemimpin UMNO Baru. Sebab itulah UMNO Baru menghalalkan judi, riba', zina, arak, rasuah dan pelbagai yang diHARAMkan oleh Allah.

Justice Datuk Ian H.C. Chin dismissed an application by The Ritz Hotel Casino Limited and RHC Limited to register a judgment obtained in England against Datuk Seri Osu Sukam on the grounds that it was against public policy. It was not mentioned when the judgment was obtained in the English High Court. In his ruling, Chin said two of the principles of the Malaysian national philosophy or Rukunegara, Belief in God and Good Social Behaviour, would mean that gambling is injurious to public welfare. "Anything that seeks to go against the Rukunegara must surely be regarded as against public policy," he stressed. "It was mentioned that gambling is allowed under licence in Malaysia but that is to prevent it from being run by the underworld and it was not something that is good. "It is my view that any profit made from gambling (and prostitution) can fairly be said to be profit from vice. In this regard, I do not see how a casino can be likened to a bank which the Judgement Creditors appear to argue," he added. "What is offensive and totally unfair is for the casino to allow someone to gamble on credit in order to make him lose not only his pants but the livelihood of his wife and children as in this case." He even suggested that a law should be enacted to allow a gambler to sue a casino for having enticed him to gamble beyond his means if that is not already a common law. Chin noted Malaysians must be protected from being enticed to gamble on credit. The only way to discourage such entrapment is to prevent such foreign judgment founded on gambling credit from being registered and from being enforceable in Malaysia." __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
