ANOTHER NATIONAL SEARVICE DEATH

This time its Mohd Rafi Ameer, 18. Died after suffering from fever and having a fall. It seems that the NS camp took too long to send the him to the hospital. It was alleged that his aunt was denied access to see him or take him to the hospital.

Bob Dylan asked:
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Here in Malaysia, it seems that it not blowing in the wind, its blowing in HOT AIR!

National Service (NS) Training Department Director-General Abdul Hadi Awang Kechil:
"We're waiting for the outcome of the post-mortem for the cause of death,"
" A committee headed by the deputy Training Operations Sector director-general, Jamaluddin Masrin, would be set up to investigate the case including the complaint.."

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak:
"an inquiry into the incident would be thorough and any responsible party found to have been negligent would be punished
[NST]

Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye is STILL the Chairman of NS Program. No action, no responsibility, not bothered. Refuse to take resign or take any responsibility. This time no pictures in the the local press of him crying and sobbing, maybe waiting for the next death?

Perhaps Tan Sri might like to look at this post by TECheah in the Malaysian Medical Resource site for some answers.
