Good post...Hi Kak Teh.<BR/><BR/>Just spotted this blog entry. Good post. I can imagine your fear and indignance. I'm just glad that your son's ok. I've been too busy with studies so I don't really have a clue on what's going on with the Nurin Alert proposal. Hope it's coming through, though yes, you're right about it requiring a careful prior assessment. These wannabe vigilantes are more worrying than anything else and can cause obstruction of justice.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, next time I come down to London, hope that we can meet. My last visit was a little too eventful (long story), so hopefully the next one won't be anything like that ha ha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-59554037425831417692007-10-11T03:38:00.000+01:002007-10-11T03:38:00.000+01:00Kak Teh, good news.

I dah search for facts and find so many references ncluding the first Child Rescue Alert activated in Sussex in 2002. As Malaysia tends to look towards the UK rather than the US for models, how come the Child Rescue Alert was never adopted nor reported in our local media? Not even after Nurul Huda? No one saw any merit in it ke? The media is silent over the Amber Alert even up till now. Kenapa ya Kak Teh? I wonder why Shahrizat still makes no mention of it in the Child Protection Policy. Here we are trying to promote this Nurin Alert when it is supposed to be a system for the Police to help them do their job better. Don't they need our help? Still puzzled as to why the media is silent on this issue. They should push for it shouldn't they? <BR/><BR/>Sorry lah Kak Teh, being a new blogger this is a whole new world to me. Sedih at media reaction. <BR/><BR/>Congrats to Mr and Mrs Awang Gondeng for your new baby - I mean the book, the book 'Growing Up in Terengganu'!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-9885573365539877172007-10-06T15:51:00.000+01:002007-10-06T15:51:00.000+01:00Salam Aunty Z,I know the feeling too.

We sort of lost him for about half an hour (felt like ages) due to the wide area, many people and children. I was in panic mode. Luckily hubby was calm enough to scan the place and found him in tears but safe.<BR/><BR/>This reminds me when I was a little girl (many years ago :-) ). I was famous for going "missing" too. The 1st time, I was 7 yo. The uncle who was supposed to pick me up was late. The school compound was getting quiter and quiter and I panicked. So started walking home as I know the direction. But i was crying. An "abang" saw me and asked me where I was going. He took me on a bus and we got down near Central market. He then called up my Dad (luckily I knew our house no) who came immediately. I couldn't imagine how my parents felt at that time, but I guess I was really LUCKY I wasn't harmed in anyway. A second time, also same case walking home from school, a Pakcik on a motor send me home ... and yes, a third time ... two gentlemen send me home in a car. I guess those days are sooo safe and people are sooo honest and good.<BR/><BR/>Not any more, I'm afraid. I'm all for the Amber alert. Still have that ache in the heart whenever I think of Nurin ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-37366638217024274652007-10-05T06:52:00.000+01:002007-10-05T06:52:00.000+01:00Lifebloom, I remember one other incident.

But for sex predators, they are too elusive and defy profiling.<BR/><BR/>Usually, they are very charming, caring and very decent. They could even be held as role models. Impressionable young women fall into their trap for want of attention and affection.<BR/><BR/>I know of two who got away scots free. Instead of being repentant, they brag abt their victims.Hi&Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13518147608789804432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-66418352785670772822007-10-04T06:53:00.000+01:002007-10-04T06:53:00.000+01:00Rocky, the problem with doinga register of sex off...Rocky, the problem with doinga register of sex offenders is that, vigilantes might take the law into their own hands. It has happened here and many sex offenders were driven underground and that could be more dangerous - not knowing where they are. There was a case where a sex offender was so scared that he committed suicide. <BR/>What we need to do is still compile a register of sex offenders and this is only made availabe to the police, local authorities, schools etc. Their whereabouts and movements must be monitored.<BR/><BR/>I had to ask the question, Rocky, because I need to do something. I am feeling so helpless here. <BR/><BR/>Look at the increasing number of rape cases - start compiling the names of these perverts now - put them on a database which can be accessible online by certain quarters only. <BR/><BR/>I am getting very disheartened at the pace of developments. Knowing how sensitive the SIM card is, why wasn't it forced out of the woman as soon as she swallowed it? <BR/><BR/>There are so many questions, so many!Kak Tehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00856864485917633260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-27171387638344303152007-10-04T06:41:00.000+01:002007-10-04T06:41:00.000+01:00Ah, so it was you who asked him that question.

You have to be careful when you cross the road, too, don't you? Everything we do would have to be dealt with carefully, more so if it's something as important as starting a register of sex offenders and pedophiles. <BR/><BR/>But we can't to so careful that we become afraid to take any action. It's been 17 days since they found her body. And it was September (20) when she was taken from her emak and ayah.<BR/><BR/>The cops brought in the FBI, arrested and released some suspects, published photofits of two fresh suspects -- all AFTER they had found Nurin's body.<BR/><BR/>Minister Shahrizat says she is GOING to meet some quarters to discuss the next course of action.<BR/><BR/>Isn't it sad that the most significant thing that has happened since Nurin is the PM saying sure, a register would be useful but it must be dealt with carefully? <BR/><BR/>You would have gone to Nuraina's blog and Princessjournals and Tembam. I hear some parents are going to meet and discuss what they should and could do to prevent another child and another parent going through what a lot of us are still suffering from now.Rockybruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187242806213153913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-79144432351744448482007-10-04T05:53:00.000+01:002007-10-04T05:53:00.000+01:00nazrah, wow, that was scary.

We waited but she did not appear - called her room, there was no answer. We ran up and down the stairs , looking everywhere and it was a very scary half an hour. <BR/><BR/>Princessjournals, In the nst today there's another follow-up to the paedophile registry suggestion. Even if one child is saved from my small effort to bring this to the attention of the public, i am happy i have done something. Like I said, i feel so helpless and the least i can do is bring to attention what I know. I hope something positive comes out of this.Kak Tehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00856864485917633260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-4290791518425846442007-10-04T05:49:00.000+01:002007-10-04T05:49:00.000+01:00lady potpetI read your entry and yes, i thought it...lady potpet<BR/>I read your entry and yes, i thought it was an eerily familiar experience. <BR/>Alhamudlillah everything turned out well for the both of us and i must say for most of us.
