| Kuala Besut by-election: PAS not aiming to take over Terengganu, says Husam Musa Posted: KUALA BESUT: PAS has no intention to take over the Terengganu government from Barisan Nasional even if it wins the Kuala Besut by-election, says its vice president Datuk Husam Musa. He said the Barisan state government would be maintained, even though a win for PAS in the by-election would mean 16 seats each for both parties, resulting in a hung state legislative assembly. "It's only that they (Barisan) would not be able to do as they like. We will play a constructive check-and-balance role in the administration of the state, that is orientated towards the well-being of the people in Terengganu," he told a media conference at the party's election base in Kampung Baru here Wednesday. He was reacting to Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein's statement that PAS' bid to wrest the hung assembly through populist sentiments and form a new government would not be received favourably by the people. - Bernama |

| Posted: KUALA LUMPUR: Despite her infamous public image, sex blogger Vivian Lee cut a far more subdued figure in court Thursday, when she and her boyfriend Alvin Tan were charged over religiously insensitive postings on their Facebook page. "She looks so demure. So unlike her sex kitten image," a journalist covering the event remarked. Earlier, when they were produced in court, Tan, 25, glowered at the crowd in the public gallery while Lee, 24, looked nerdy in glasses. Lee, who wore a pink T-shirt with the words "I love your nice spirit" on it, sported a wrist cast on her right hand.  Tan (centre) and Lee appear in court When asked about the cast, the kindergarten teacher replied: "I got robbed a few weeks ago." Earlier, Tan and Lee, who were in the dock, were seen talking to his mother. They appeared friendly when The Star Online spoke to them during the court adjournment. The judge's decision not to grant bail to the duo shocked those in the public gallery. The duo's reaction to this was not clear as they were immediately whisked away by the police out of the court room. Tan was taken to Sungai Buloh Prison and Lee to Kajang Prison. The duo claimed trial in the Sessions Court here to three charges related to their Ramadan bak kut teh greeting on their Facebook page and pornographic pictures in their blogs. |
