When Did Nazri Become A Public Relations Officer For The Chief Justice?
Read this typical Nazri spin, this time on behalf of the Chief Justice. Read it and laugh or shake your head in disgust.The rulers did not object to the list of potential candidates for the post of Chief Justice of Malaya at their recent conference as claimed by some parties, Minister at the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz said today. "They (the Conference of Rulers) did not object but they did raise some points," he said.***** Common sense will tell you that a judge who failed to write 33 judgments cannot even remotely be described as hardworking. What does Nazri take the public for? Day by day the credibility of our politicians, judges (especially the Chief Justice) and the public institutions are going down the longkang. When will redemption come?
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi would be making an announcement on the appointment soon, he told reporters after the official opening of the new RM270 million court complex by Yang di-Pertuan Agong Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin in Jalan Duta here.
Nazri said Abdullah met Tuanku Mizan last Wednesday to discuss the list of potential candidates to fill the post which had been vacant since the retirement of Tan Sri Siti Norma Yaakob on Jan 5.
On another issue, Nazri said the writing of judgements was not the only criterion to promote judges. There were other criteria like patience and hard work which were considered before a person got his promotion, he said when asked to comment on a judge who was said to have failed to write 33 judgments.
Earlier, Chief Justice Tun Ahmad Fairuz Sheikh Abdul Halim, in his speech, said that having all the courts under one roof would reduce the backlog of cases. "Both the prosecution and the lawyers can be in court for a case which doesn't take up much time and then hop over to another court to continue with another case. At least in this court complex, cases that don't take up much time need not be postponed," he said.

When I was a doctor in Universiti Hospital, we were required to write out a case summary of every discharged ward case. This will make it easier for the follow-up doctors, so they will not have to sieve thru sheaves of daily ward notes to get to the salient facts.
Proscratinator that i was ( still am, in fact ) i let my to-write- case-summaries notes pile up. Finally when the pile was titter-tottering, I was called in by Head of Department and was told to take forced vacation leave and go to a carrel of the medical records department and write out the summaries. Pronto! It cost me a week's leave ! And so embarrassing! Sigh!
Maybe the same thing should be done to our errant judges who are tardy with their written judgement. Force them to take leave and write !!! No more trips to New Zealand etc etc for them.... write !
i almost fell from my chair after hearing the explanation from this person by the name of Nazri.
writing judgements is not the only criteria for promotion. I agree wholeheartedly and by simple logic for those judges who are in dereliction of their duty by not writing judgements should never get promoted, no?
it really amazes me how this Nazri can postulate that a judge can be hardworking when he is habitual in not writing judgements. Really beats me!
Hah, Nazri that "small boy" who likes to play PR! He'd always find some issues to speak on, spoken wrongly, come under fire, and finally disappear. Where is the government's creditability? Does he know what is really going on before giving his comment?
Can we afford to keep him in the Prime Minister Department? Come on, even those ministers in the PM's department won't open their mouth that often! Be careful, this small boy may cause havoc at the wrong time and the wrong issue, before we know it.
