| Hostage drama: Shot suspect dies in hospital Posted: 07 Jul 2011 07:57 AM PDT MUAR: The hammer-wielding man who held 30 children and four teachers hostage at a kindergarten here earlier Thursday, died in hospital at 9.15pm, after being shot by police during rescue operations. Earlier, police had freed all hostages, after shooting teargas into the Serikids kindergarten compound and entering the building in Taman Sungai Abong Cemerlang here. State deputy police chief Datuk Jalaluddin Abdul Rahman had told reporters that the man was in critical condition after he was hit by a single shot in the head and was sent the nearby Sultanah Fatimah Specialist Hospital. "All the 30 children, aged between three and five years, and their four teachers are safe," he said, adding that they were sent to the hospital for a check up. The man is believed to have two records of breaking into kindergartens, namely Warna Sari Kindergarten on Jan 12, 2009 and Senario Kindergarten on March 10 last year, by climbing over the fence, armed with a hammer. The case is being investigated under Section 307 of the Penal Code for attempted murder and Section 363 of the same code for kidnapping. It was reported that the man, believed to be mentally unsound, had asked police negotiators for a gun or he would kill the kids. However, after local psychiatrist Dr Lau Keen Lee spoke to the man from outside of the double-storey bungalow, he appeared to calm down.

| Govt to rethink online services Posted: 07 Jul 2011 05:33 AM PDT PUTRAJAYA: Although the Government has successfully operated online services, it has to rethink whether they are still relevant, Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Sidek Hassan said Thursday. "I recognise that we have implemented many e-Government applications nationwide over the years. (But) just because it is e-something, it doesn't make it relevant for all time," he said when delivering a key note address entitled 'Waking Up With Tomorrow's Mind' at the National ICT Conference 2011 here. Sidek said the myGovernment portal now offered 1,247 online services. He also commented on the successes achieved by the Multimedia Supercorridor since its implementation in 1996, including the creation of 111,367 jobs up to 2010. "But we need to ask ourselves if the companies and services registered thus far will catapult Malaysia to compete in a world of seven billion people," Sidek said. "Our ring of competition is no longer confined to the 28 million population here," he added. - Bernama Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price. |
