LOL~ Thanks for the bribing tips XD

ahh yes, the beautiful thing about kuching is the cops..

Sigh..so difficult to look for a decent policeman these days... But I guess if he's a good one, he wouldn't be a traffic police catching people doing small crimes like this... Probably on a drug busting crime or something already...

But in the situation described above, who would want to get fined la..

That wasn't so bad I guess. I remember once when me and my family were heading to the ferry from Sibu: My dad went past a red light, turned to the right where the ferry was and 'wham!'. Bumped into two police officers. Suay. They asked for some pocket money. The worst thing was, they weren't even traffic policemen! Wahlao. My dad managed to reason with them and we managed to get out of trouble. And it didn't happen once. Twice in a row, same place but on another day. Thank God the Rajang Bridge is finally complete. Or else who knows how many others would fall prey to those... MCB guys.

See this is what gives Malaysia such a bad name. The "duit kopi" culture. 1st for pirated copy (or could it be China?) and famous for corrupted government.

We know it's wrong but RM30 as opposed to RM300 does sounds tempting.And I guess most people rather save their money than to keep their integrity.Still knowing that giving bribe is wrong, it doesn't affect most people's conscience does it?

Wouldn't this post be risky - providing the people from the anti-corruption agency an excuse to pay you a visit?

Kesalahan Rasuah

Menawar/Memberi Rasuah

Mana-mana orang atau ejen secara rasuah meminta/menerima/ bersetuju menerima suapan rasuah (wang/benda/perkhidmatan dan lain-lain) sebagai dorongan atau upah untuk melakukan atau tidak melakukan apa-apa jua berkenaan transaksi tersebut atau berkenaan dengan urusan rasmi, prinsipal/majikan berkenaan.

LOL, the policemen and the bike look like they're floating on the road. Photoshop until so obvious lah.

Err.. actually you can choose not to pay the 30 bucks.. you can choose to go to court and get a discount =P Discount can be ridiculously high. And better stil, if you know any big shot in the police station. Just hand him the bill and it will be nullified.... MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!

kenny,
by posting this, me think you are in for trouble, no? esp. with the photos, ACA will be looking for you.

thats the trouble- people encourage this kind of cops because its suits their pockets-dont forget when you're in trouble and really need their help-this is the kind of 'cops" you'll be complaining about

Anyone know if US cops are like this?

I can't beleive you made up this story :( Corruption I say!

kenny, you might be wrong to put up the above report as if i am not mistaken, last time a similiar thing happened to a DJ, he got into trouble with the men in black..
better remove it..

I can hardly say that I'm in anyway impressed at all.

Malaysia - Third world police, third world citizens mentality.

Kenny,

Kenny,

give me the other two notes, with "50" printed on them.. :)

dangerous topic to blog about lol,

but go you, Kenny!

I kinda wish we could do that in Singapore. It is still cheaper than paying the S$200 fine...

Kenny, i would advice you to take down this post as soon as possible. For all you know some MP or press happen to stumble upon this post and decide to make as an example to all.

Why is most people condemning the police? It's people like Kenny who is willing to bribe that makes this situation possible.

"Police: !!!
Kenny: :)"

I like this part! laughs.

$30 in exchange for $600...that's a good deal!!!

Thumbs up, Kenny....hope polis here also like this....anyway..hardly, they either take photo of u while hiding or have a road chase..haha

Hi Kenny. I don't mean to preach...but you shoudn't have done that. We are always complaining that our cops are corrupt and take bribes. Well, we are in the wrong if we bait them in the first place. Don't give me crap that they made the first move, it takes two to tango and two hands to clap.

We always complain that Malaysians are like this or like that. Yet we do the exact things that we gripe about and it is us that decides whether the country Improvement has to start somewhere, even if its something small like not littering or not baiting/offering a bribe.

Shalom.

Roy, watch out for your words. Who's the third world citizen!

bad...bad.. post. bad..bad.. kenny!

Hey, I think you should delete this post of urs! How can you even blog about your crime??

Not so sweet.

First of all, the normal 'police check routine' carried out by the 2 cops are illegal in the first place - that is if the blog entry is true to certain extent.

A legal police-check should have warnings cones sitting on the roadside to warn and alert all incoming cars and drivers that "A LEGAL POLICE CHECK ROUTINE OPERATION" is happening.

Secondly, all traffic policemen who is under the checking operation SHOULD wear the official rectified vest with reflective wordings.

Thirdly, traffic police do not hold official and legal routine check at small street hidden from any eyes view of drivers. All should be clearly made aware of any police activities that is going on.

Which then leads to the necessary of putting up clear signs on the road before the operation spot informing everyone what is going on.

Unless, if you are stopped by any of them while on the road, moving, then it is a totally different matters to discuss on.

Finally, since the Prime Minister had officialy made required that all policemen should wear 'anti-bribery' tags, they SHOULD have wore it. Otherwise, they either don't respect the laws themselves or they are asking for it.

I hope you won't get in trouble for this..

Actually, I don't think they were doing a valid road block. You should have asked them to pose for pictures so you can put on the internet. I would have asked them to do that.

lol..

fucked up malaysia and its fucked up police.

yes, we are all citizens of a third world country.
lol

No use saying the police are screwed up. If u traffic offenders don't do any mistakes, there wont be any summons to pay...Besides, why say accepting bride is a crime but be the one who offers it in the first place?

walao eh. last time i pay more ler..

Wah, nowadays RM30 also they take. They used to ask for RM50 (that's what I've been paying all this while. Duhh!!!!)

i met the same case b4 dis 2, malaysia's police is like that...

wa... marry and accept your bride is a crime? (according to SS above).

Anyways, These cibai policemen and these cibai Malaysians keep on "rasuah"ing and then blame it on someone else. The biggest reason that Malaysian policemen are easy bait for crruption is due to their low income and their laziness as well. Take Singapore as an example, policemen there DO NOT take bribes because they are one of the richest policemen in Asia.

Malaysia is not only a multi-racist country and is also a very very corrupted country as well. Bringing up those cibai Malaysians to stand on their ground today and pretending to make up stories and sarcastically talk about the government when they themselves are the ones who are offending and breaking the law. Malaysians who doesn't even drive properlly are the most cibai.

Police should keep trying and apprehend those cibai fucking ah beng who drive cars with big exhaust or loud radio and pretend that their car is damn fast and wanna race with you when u are waiting for the traffic lights. Those fucking ah beng cars shud all die in an accident and rot in hell.

The photos are obviously fake, you guys are nuts.

If the cops gonna nab Kenny for the entry, which i doubt so, the most Kenny could dig his wallet for another 30 bucks. Therefore i doubt that is any problem at all

bad kenny. u shud not bribe. jz pay da fuckin 600. u give bloggers a bad image. worse still, u actually post about it. better remove it before the star sees it.

wah...how can like tat one??!!!

argghhh...

In Singapore, u try do this, u will be in deep shit...

but u heng to 'siam' e fine...

better wear ur seat belt frm now lor...

wah. thats brilliant! Smart moves~
saved RM570 lei!
nothing like this can happen in spore. we will get double fines if we do so!
haha.

How do u manage to snap a shot at the police officer's anti-corruption badge???

lucky u!! my friend had to pay RM100 for the same offense in Hartamas... that was all he had and was running low on fuel and the blardy policeman gave him back RM10 to fill petrol.

From that day onwards whenever he sees a policeman he throws all his RM50 notes under his seat and makes sure that he has some red notes... And yes, u CAN bargain with the policeman to settle as low as RM10 ;)

nice post..too bad u couldnt took candid shot while they din notice..or even turn on ur recorder and record the whole conversation... anyway, who ask u dun use safety belts la? hahaha..

at a roadblock in KL (afther zouk hour)..:P

Encik Polis (EP) : Ada minum?
Mr.S : Ada

EP: Brapa gelas?

Mr.S : Satu je encik.

EP: Betul satu gelas saja? Ok..tepi, tepi (takes license and directs to roadside)

EP : So... sekarang encik mau tiup atau tak nak?(??? Tiup??-Sounds more like asking for a BJ!!?? - U actually have a choice to "blow" him or not)

Mr.S : Saya mau tiup encik (haha..breathalyser lah idiots@!!)..:P

EP : BETUL U MAU TIUP????...(

Mr.S : Ya encik. Saya minum satu gelas je. Saya mau tiup.

EP (AGAIN!!) : BETUL U MAU TIUP????...(give a funny look again- and repeat same Q&A ..

after 5 mins..suddenly he steps away from the window and put his hand on his hips (cekak pinggang!) and then here comes the bomb....

EP : HAIYA ENCIK...U BAGI LIMA PULUH JE..U SENANG..SAYA SENANG..BAGI U JALAN...APAMACAM??

MR.S : (Muka selamba dog...)..tapi saya nak tiup juga...:p

EP: HAIYA...ok..ok..u tiup...

After blowing hard into the straw (breathalyzer)..he takes a look at the result and ask another bomb...

EP: U minum apa...??

MR.S : Er..vodka..

EP : HAH..INI MACAM TAK BOLEH LEPAS NI. KALAU U CAKAP U MINUM BEER, SAYA BOLEH LEPAS, MINUM VODKA TAK BOLEH LEPAS NI.....(DuH?? as though as beer is not intoxicating!!)...

MR.S : Tapi saya tau saya tak lepas had encik..

EP: Ini bacaan sudah lebih (takes a look again in to the result)...Lebih sikit...so..u mau settle macam mana??...Lima puluh lah..terus saya bagi jalan....

MR.S: Tapi kalau lebih, Encik boleh saman dan bawa saya ke balai sekarang.

EP(

MR.S : Bukan saya tak mau bayar..tapi saya tau saya tak buat salah. Nak bayar macam mana???..Lagipun kereta pun Proton je..gaji pun cukup makan je...manalah boleh bayar..(gave muka kesian..:)..

ES : OK LAH..U CAKAP..BERAPA U MAU SETTLE??..(repeated (2x)...kalau biasa orang bayar tiga ratus...

MR.S: Eeeerrrr....bukan saya tak nak bayar...saya tau saya tak salah...macam mana??

Whole thing continued for about 10 mins...and then...

EP: OKOK LAH...(Gave this bored and frustated look)...JALAN LAH...(n gave back license)...

F.Y.I... as I took my license and left..the "EP" started his M.O. with this scared gurl in the car alone in front of me..hhmm.. I wonder how much she paid??......

spazm@puppy.com.my

do you know why msia curruption is so high.. becos there are so many ppl like you!!! if it is ur wrong, accept the fine! and u feel so proud somemore.. sadd....such a bad testimony...feel disappointed on u...

haha, i wont wanna get saman too for not fasten my safety belt. There were once, i back from mamak whicn near my hse, i forgot to on my light. Then get caught by police... after teguh a while... he let me go.. ahha.. without any bribe. was lucky.. keke

Bravo!! Let's hope no ACA agency guy reads your blog or else he will bring you in for questioning.

But yup, that's typical Malaysian Police..bunch of Useless people, on the lookout for bribes but fails to solve the bigger crimes.

ya, Hari Raya time, even worse. One sergeant ask for duit kopi from me inside the station! During fasting season!!

Brother Kenny,

Bad Bad u!!! Quickly remove or delete this post before u get into trouble!

And Pyro7 is right! u just spoilt ur own reputation and other bloggers as well, not forgetting our very own Police force!!!

hi kenny. i dont think you should have put this post up. might get in trouble with the ACA. i reckon u'd better delete this posting as soon as possible.!

I had two encounters......

1st : made an illegal right turn to go up the hill to kuching high school..... they surprised me behind some bushes and using somewhat same tactics....rm30 was enuf to make them happy oso...

2nd : was in ipoh and was caught using the phone.....this case was different..they had the "saya *heart* anti-rasuah" tag on their uniforms.....but still...in the end...he said, " if you wanna save urself better make it quick!later i write down summonses too late oredy!" ...he was damn hard to bribe...rm30 not enuf =.=" must rm50....

U know, people actually fight to call their lawyers to the police station just to prevent the cops from extracting the statement that you have just made of your own free will above.

Actually it think its quite impossible to actually get into legal trouble due to this post.. no real evidence, for all you know Kenny may have just made up the whole thing..

can one actually get arrested for a story on a blog?

*winks..

i wouldn't have post this up if i were you... you're committing a crime here... i'll see you on tv later. ;) (popparazzi on 12 pm ! )

they want money let them ask 1st...you are lucky being stop by traffic as mine being stop by police patrol car...you can always put some small cash in your pocket so you can gv them less as they really greedy always want for more if they saw big notes in your wallet...pity face important...hehe...

wahaha!Ofcoz u'd pay 30bucks...i mean..it's even more than 90% discount!!! XD hehe

remove this treat better.many foreigner reading.destroy country image.

That's a no no for me.

Happened to me once and I told them to give me the summons. "Are you sure?" they asked me. "Yes" I told them. Amazing thing happened, they just let me go.

Mesra is not happy, it's actually friendly

I don't think kenny shld remove the post. What Kenny wrote is something that happens everyday throughout the whole Malaysia.

For those people who disagree with what Kenny do, I'm sure you guys will do just the same thing (minus the S'porean cos the can't do so) cos RM600!!! compare to RM30 wor...

Kenny,

I have no right to advice you as I am nothing but I am concerned about you and your blog. Better remove this crime post for your goodness. Otherwise your mum would be worried about you. The best thing is don't let your late dad down about it albeit maybe it's trivia but surely he hopes the best for you.

regards,
Simon

Dude, am not sure what sort of message that you are sending out here. It sure seem like you have proven that we are a bunch of people with third world mentality. Nice going dude.

This is bad, Kenny, it is a bribery. You shouldn't have done it. How to make Malaysia to become first world country if everyone do the same thing like you? S'pore is first world country, one cannot bribe the policeman, Malaysia is a 3rd world country, one can bribe the policeman. Now, anybody wants to live in a first world country?

You either keep RM570 and give RM30 to the policeman, or.. u pay RM600 to feed corruption in higher ranked police officer.

Good decision.

this is one of the many reasons why i love my country.

eh u sure u wonnt get into trouble for this?

Thanks for all the advice guys. :) Don't worry I wasn't out of my mind. In fact, I thought about it long before I posted. Heh.

Well, bribing the police in this country is like buying pirated DVDs. Everyone know it's happening. Everyone know it's wrong. But you still do it anyway. It's the reality here people. This what's happening out there, so why are you guys denying the truth?

i give 50 bucks for driving in the emergency lane..

kenny, you shouldn't have bribed. the cop was wrong. i thought at the end of the post, you'll settle it in a right way. i was disappointed though.

won't you get into trouble for putting this on your blog?

The photoshop is badly done. The cops look like hanging and the motorbike like toy size in relation to cops!

Nothing wrong to put in this blog, only something wrong with the "transaction"

Wah lau... are you kidding me?! Blogging abt this in broad daylight. *LOL* Somebody let the PM see this please! It's like asking for trouble but hell it's funny! It's about time someone shows them what been really going on right under their noses, Anti-Rasuah or not.

KL no RM 30 as duit kopi..
Minimum RM 50...
But all this depends on the model of the car!

KENNY!

i SUPPORT YOU THAT YOU PUT THIS POST UP.

IT'S THE TRUTH AND NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE IGNORED! DON'T LISTEN TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE SAYING THAT YOU HAVE TO BRING IT DOWN, THERE IS NO LEGAL REASON THAT SAYS YOU HAVE TO BRING IT DOWN.

AS FOR SPOILING THE COUNTRY'S IMAGE, YOU ARE NOT POSTING ANYTHING SLANDEROUS OR UNTRUE.

GO GO GO!'

P/S To the rest of the Malaysians that are scared about posting it. You shouldn't just ignore something and turn a blind eye on it.

I was under the impression that our country is a developing one, not a third world one. -_-"

If it wasn't you who blogged about this, i'd be so tempted to call the authorities wei.

Ok, take care then. Remember, prison got no broadband.. ;-)

I've just forwarded this entry to the media. Let's see whether they'll act on it.

To those saints who keep saying tat bribing is bad, horrible etc, i was really wondering do you guys never bribe? never buy pirated VCDs? it's the same! hypocrite.. and there is no way one can get into trouble for posting such a post. tat's way too ridiculous...no concrete evidence..absurdity~!

kenny, did ur pa bribed kutchin policemen too?

You seemed like a good, honest kutchin boy but you don't think like one. Yes, everyone buys pirated cds but how can you compare that with bribin a fellow? It is morally wrong, this conduct you deem is reality. Just some serious reflection here.

oh kenny, you do know that you're digging your own grave by posting this here, right?
but entertaining blog entry nonetheless! :D

DUDE!

This is SERIOUSLY not a good thing to blog about. Skali-skali the Malaysian version of the FBI (who cant be corrupted btw) show up at your house... then you die....

As Mr Brown said, "Remember, prison got no broadband"

Gosh..this just shows that the malaysian police force are too slack with their enforcement of the law... =S

Very bad image lei.. =(

A word of caution ler Kenny, this *might* get you into a bit of trouble. bribing police, dont play play leh..especially the fact that they dunno who was the police who accepted the bribe..but they do know that you were the one who gave the bribe.

Kenny, it's bad to bribe the police... Sometimes when you insist that you want a saman, it could get you out of trouble (and save your money as well) because not all traffic polices carry their little books with them. They are just out on the road preying on innocent people.

Malaysia Boleh. Sentiasa Boleh. Semua Boleh and Serba Boleh!

Malaysia Boleh. Sentiasa Boleh. Semua Boleh and Serba Boleh!

i wonder what would happen if the PM or the star read this....

Malaysian like this, Malaysian like that, first world, third world...
Truth of the matter is, most of you who admonished the police for soliciting for bribes, woulve settled for giving out the bribe anyway, as in the scenario Kenny put up here, and then after you're free you go off and tell the whole world about how corrupt the system is! But little do you realize that in a system, there has to be an interaction and unless you have acquiesced to the invitation to bribe, the whole system would not be complete! This is like hiding the hand that cast the stone! If you are preaching morality, well, for one Pirated DVDs or any copyright infringement IS morally wrong, it is NOT a victimless crime, it is where a great deal of corruption and bribery takes place,from KDN to the airport, customs, police etc etc; and another, it is morally your responsibility to report officers who solicit for bribes even at the risk of you being summonsed.
Aileen, you cannot say you are morally right by rejecting graft and then go off to buy pirated DVD, can you?

nice...

If only we have the same thing in Singapore!! But no, police here are overzealous shitheads..

If you are in the wrong (in Kenny case) then paying a bribe is always the easy way out...

In my case..I know I'm not in the wrong..but that bugger keeps intimidating me for some moolah..

Thanks to me only having RM50 notes in my wallet (which I didn't want to let him see)..I stood my ground and he let off after like 15 mins bargaining with me..(due to the facts that he had easier victims lining ahead already)..:P..

mebe they have to attend more "How to Sell" seminars..so they can sell their pitch better..

okay, i'm not sure this is a real or made-up incident for blogging purpose. In any case, rasuah is wrong lah!! No bribing, please, if you want to see our nation progress.

there is once i got caught for entering a one-way street - the other way (blame the dim street light around, me a bit road sign idiot!!)

P: U tau ini 1-way street?

K: ye-ke? tak perasan lar..saya sesat, tak pernah masuk jalan ini, street light takde

P: IC sama lesen

P: **beepbeep - tolong check ini IC ******** over!..later**beepbeep - yea, yea, ok

P: Lu masuk 1-way street arah yang salah, ini sudah boleh saman punya. U mau kena saman ka..??

K: Saman ka? berapa mau bayar saman?

P: RM 300

K: Alamak! Haiya, apa mau buat? sudah buat salah.

P: Apa macam?

K: sudah buat salah...kalau en baik, maafkan lar saya. Saya tak akan ulang lagi. Kalau en mau saman, terpaksa terima saman lar..sudah buat salah

P: Saman banyak kerja, u kena pergi jalan bandar (**KL Police Traffic Station - ask all the KL car banger) settle. RM 300, banyak tau

K: Apa nak buat? sudah buat salah. Kalau boleh, en boleh maafkan saya lar. Kalau mau saman, kena terima lar..(acting like an idiot that know nothing)

P: Apa macam? Mau saya tolong?

K: **repeat the same old thing

and the scene keep repeat for 3-4 times, then the police check with other guy in the car...

P: OK Lar...lain kali jangan bagi saya nampak u lagi buat salah, kalau tidak i terus saman u. OK?

K: OK. Thank you ya...

the dialog is not the actual, but the situation are real. Sometime act stupid may pay off with a green light without any saman. But this will require amateur actor...hahahahaha

Kenny, we shouldn't codone bribery. it is bad. really. admit the mistake, pay the price n make sure we don't repeat it again. And yes, i hate bribery and i have stop buying pirated VCD for years. Why continue to feed the samseng while buying VCD? didn't you all see the underground/black triad movie especially about HK triad?

kenny ur dead meat
i'll forward this post to the ACA....

Bless the world for third world mentality...wait that didn't sound right at all. Oh well. Good for you Kenny. Have to be careful eh??

Remember, camera and computer are not allowed in the prison.

don be proud that u bribe...

blastmeister, yea I know. I don't condone bribery either, and yalah I admit I'm a bit of an asshole for not practising what I preach. I never denied that I was at fault myself. I'm not proud of it.

Listen boys and girls, don't do what Uncle Kenny did. ;)

But you know what? If there's any purpose this entry serve, it's to show that bribery is indeed easy, well and alive in this city. That's the reality. I don't like it, but that is the reality.

If all these detractors are upset at me for pointing that out, then they can all feel free to continue sleeping in wonderland.

P/S. The time, date, and road names mentioned in this entry are all fictional and do not actually exist.

thats wat so cool about Malaysian Police compared to the Singapore Police. Here, we pay our saman ONLINE !!! paperless some-more. we got MSC status dudes.... cheers

Argh~ if only my case in Hokkaido was as negotiable as this one.

RM30 dollars!

damn last time we had to pay the cops RM50 each for the offence.. bintulu police r more greedy than kuching for sure!

Dear Kenny,
Section 14 of the Anti Corruption Act 1997 reads:
"Any person who offers to an officer of any public body...any gratification as an inducement or a reward for...the officer showing or forbearing to show any favour or disfavour in his capacity as such officer... shall be guilty of an offence.

And you have admitted to have committed this offence in a public forum.

Are you nuts?!

mesra, cepat dan betul. I like the last one. The last time I kept my integrity for running a red light, I spent a nite in the police lock-up. Apparently after pretending not to understand their hints for bribery, they got back at me by charging me with an attempt to run over the police. It would've been another 3 days b4 i got out if it weren't for my friends and family's persistence in getting me out. Mark those words, 'they' are always right!!

Hi Kenny,

I have been a keen reader of your blog for quite some time. But i absolutely agree with the above visitor, you are implicating yourself directly. Just a suggestion, perhaps you should put a disclaimer on the blog post and state that this is a fictional account based on a true incident.

I'm sure the powers to be are only too keen to prosecute minor offences and publicize as well as make such cases an example to keep the public's attention from the real issues affecting the country.

Do think of the legal implications of what you're doing.

That's my opinion anyway.

Good luck.

to legislate rm300 for a minor offence,indirectly encouraging bribery.
speeding ought to be fine rm150 only(speed trap in KL)there's no balance in the justice system at all.Datuk Chan KC pls help out here tq.
they should take into account the seriousness of the breach and come up with a more reasonable price for the different road offences.

note:not always our fault to bribe.

dude, it's only RM$30 for u..the other time i went to Genting from Spore for holiday, i was stop by the custom...They "fine" me RM$100 for not changing the photos in my passport can...

I am so piss'd with it man...but i let it go as my friend told mi that how it work ...Sigh...

guess we are just unlucky ...

to all wannabe lawyers and moral bigots,

no, kenny will not go to jail. no, he will not be investigated by the ACA. and no, the police will not come banging down his door.

there are no legal implications to this blog post. as kenny has said, it is fictional.

so stop trying to be all that angelic. grow up and face the reality.

Reminder:
1. You're admiting to an offence punishable under the law.
2. You may have an international audience, n by posting this just what are u portraying Msia as to foreign readers? That corruption goes about in msia and n IS an epitome of third world mentality?

Respect, given by others.
Shame, brought about by oneself.
It takes a moment of shame to ruin years of respect.
Now, nothing can be done to recover the respect(both of you and the country) foregone by your shameful act(both the incident and by blogging it).

My friend, you've just opened a can of worms...you've just announced your bribery of a police in the WWW!!!

knnccb..............
Fuck the police........
hate them..........

wow. so much controversy over such an irrelevant topic. i don't see how this can possibly 'tarnish' the country's image as some people seem very adamant on calling it. besides, isn't your OWN integrity questioned when you chose to hide this to preserve the country's 'dignity'? such hypocrisy, it's making me laugh.

way to go kenny. and yes, there really is no grounds for anyone taking any action on you, because to do that they'd have to get that cop who allegedly accepted the bribe from you to testify, and God knows he's not gonna do that. other than that, for all intents and purposes, this could be a hypothetical situation, no?

From what I see, the police were deliberately out there to accept bribes. He was on his job with the intent of earning extra cash by not doing his job. You could've just ran off and they wouldn't bother giving chase, knowing that that's just a RM30 loss and not an unbroken law charged.

Whats with all you people condemning the people who bribe? RM600.00 is alot of money man, but that's beside the point.

Look, the Prime Minister asked all the coppers to wear the badge also they don't follow. I think that says enough about traffic police and the current social atmosphere. For every person who bribes, there is a person who will rather die than bribe. I think the former is more in existent. You think the corrupt cops will one day wake up and say;

"Haiya. People don't give money anymore la. Should just stop being corrupt. Do good job from now on".

My ass la people. And i read some stupid comment about third world mentality? it's called 'reality' la.

YOu heroes want to pay RM600.00 and show your righteousness and never-give in to baddies-attitude, go ahead la. I applaud you.

Kenny just wants to go to work la. I would bribe erm too.

I agree that Kenny shld put this entry here and not remove it. The police can choose not to be bribe and be firm on his stand. But they chose the other way. What to do? Blame us? The fact that issuing summons also no use. Some people tear it in front of the police, some juz dump it. Like that they dont even recover the summons issued. If us by giving the 'bonus' as monthly allowance, they will be more happy what. Their pay are so miserable. Not even enough for me to go partying, shopping and etc... We are giving them a better life... Who does not agree? Their pay is juz nt enough.

Well, in Jb, cars of different ranges bribe is different amount.

Protons can get away with Rm 50, Honda CRV around RM 70, BMW, Mercedes all the sport cars or even singapore cars will be at least RM 100, or maybe at least S$50. Try flying on the NS Highway u may meet the friendly policeman coming after you for some side income to cover his expenses.

Haha

don't remove this entry... let everyone knows how friendly our cops is.. btw the mesra,cepat dan betul is kinda true man..

wake up human who told u no brondband in prision if u got money than u can have it, now so high tech go fo wireless.

amalan rasuah budaya kita...hahahaha...bribery is WRONG man,but if we thought back,we can save alot of $money$ wor...u wanna pay $30 or 'samban'?

Hello blogger mr.Kenny,

I love this post very much!
Instead, I would like to tell u bout' my incident too which was caught by police too.

It's around KL and my friends was driving in a rush.
No seatbelts, No license, No IC....
Bam!!!! Kena!
The worst part was that she even didn't bring her purse.
The police who was wearing a BIG BIG " I anti-RaSuah" circle badge and asked,"Mau chia me Kopi o?"
My friend then asked me to pull out 3 reds for him.

Wonder why all they love to drink Kopi O...

Heeheee...

There's nothing wrong with this post. In Kenny's defense he could say farbrication of infomation for intent of humor. There's no evidence of the real cop, the time, etc. This is minor compared to the political satire Kenny has made on various Malaysian political figures. But one thing for sure, its defamation for the Malaysian police department. Heck cares anyway. Cheers.

kenny,
the keyword is "tolong lah..."
they would understand this classic word i assure you.Otherwise,adresss them as "cikgu".

Real life situation narrated to me:

In the streets of Jakarta, a Malaysian lawyer boards a taxi. The taxi driver drives into a road with a sign that says "no entry".

Lawyer: Pak, itu no entry pak. Mana bisa masuk?

Taxi driver: Bisa Pak.

Taxi approaches a traffic police who notices them. Taxi driver makes a sharp u-turn and yells out of the window and makes a 'sawadee-kha' gesture and yells: Ampun Pak!!! and flees.

Maybe we can try that here one day or we could emulate the MP for Jasin and ask the police to tutup sebelah mata.

i did it once before...didn't feel good afterward..nowadays rather accept the ticket..it is more ethical to pay for your errs rathen than to be a catalyst of corruptions. Dissapointed with you :( ...but u sure got guts to post that up!!

i'm going to mexico bitches!

This is something everyone knows and everyone who gets pulled over does but no one really talks about.

A friend of a friend once got in a pretty bad accident and paid the cop RM50 and the cop wrote his "official accident report" in his own words so that it appeared the guy who was speeding and drunk and careless didn't get into any trouble whatsoever.

Another friend of a friend who was a total idiot (and ah beng type) new to kuching and never got pulled over before. the inevitable happended one day and he remembered bribery. He pulled out RM50 and talked super loud "this much enough for you o not?! take it and leave me alone! i'm in a hurry!" Naturally he was very pissed off when the officer actually wrote him out a hefty fine! Idiot has no tact.

And Kenny... I truely hope you come out of this in one piece. We'll see what happens in the days to come. While it's funny to talk and brag about this... it's also a taboo topic... especially with as much exposure as you get at top blogger... be careful.

aih..fuck this shit. i'm going to mexico bitches!

Dude. Like castitas / sixthseal back in the day - you have my utmost and slobbering support.

Kick ass!

Hi, Kenny. the time and date may be fictional. BUT the roads' name are definitely NOT.

lol. once my bf CUT double line, forgot to bring driving license and even IC...but no saman wor..lol..cuz he's good in acting :D

Are you sure you wanna take the risk of posting this up here? Your blog is getting really popular. Anybody could be reading this. Perhaps some smart ass enforcement fella might add to your trouble.

it's easy to know which cops are bribable- they wear 'anti rasuah' badges!

The irony is dumbfounding.

Haiya...kenny can say watever he wants and he simply created the whole story jus fun or to see the public response, i m sure he get out from the trouble lar! No nd 2 waste ur time to sd letter to da authorities lar! Jus enjoy da blog,k?!

Yes this happens to lots of people, and I have yet to find someone who refused to pay a bribe... It is a sad reflection on Malaysia, but the truth.
Don't remove the post: we all know that this is purely fiction that you pulled out of a hat for our entertainment.

*laugh* this is one reason I love living in KL ... heheh .. and I love it how he mixed up all those languages! Cultural melting pot for sure!!

;)

i think this post will have two ending

1) it'll be removed
2) it'll be claimed as a 'scam' to see reader's reaction

Come on, give Kenny a break here. He has BRAINS you know... you telling kenny what or what he should not do... he is not a small kid, ok and he knows what he's stirring up here.

Anyway, not only he has brains, he has BALLS too - we Malaysians who still believe in the right thing and not be beaten into submission because of ACAlah, this lah, that lah, should give our respect to Kenny for blogging this.

Anyway, this is fact of life in Malaysia... we have grown so used to it that we don't blink an eye to all this - however, this is exactly what's wrong with Malaysia and this is slowly but surely "killing" ourselves in the long term. Look at all the crap that is being done as a result of bribery and cronyism....

haha i usually just speak a lot of fast english and hand him a new york license lol

they usually say ok go go

I can't be arsed to read through all the comments but Kenny has my support by posting this.

True, what Kenny did is wrong but what the cop did was worse. The cop is the greater of the two evils here.

I don't get why some of you blame Kenny? The cop offered the easy way out, Kenny took it. Out of 1000 Kuchingites in the same situation, how many do you think would choose not to pay and instead, waste their time and their 600 bucks going back and forth from Simpang 3?

I'll tell you right now, I'd pay 30 bucks and save myself a hell lot of trouble. Bad attitude? Probably but my time is worth more than money. If 30 bucks can save me time, I'll pay that instead of 600 bucks any day.

And even worse, some of you commenters are telling him to take this post down for whatever reason. THAT is taboo numero uno in blogging. After all, no one goes to other people's houses and asks them to take down an "offensive" decoration now do they?

Disagree and argue all you want, but don't ask people to take down their blog posts. That's just rude.

And no, worrying about him is no excuse.

One more thing, somebody quoted this just now:-

"Any person who offers to an officer of any public body...any gratification as an inducement or a reward for...the officer showing or forbearing to show any favour or disfavour in his capacity as such officer... shall be guilty of an offence.

In this scenario, who offered who?

Remember, don't shoot the messenger people. I'm reading more comments and feeling increasingly distressed that not enough people are disparaging the REAL villain! Why is no one getting pissed off at the cop!? Yes, he who made the initial OFFER.

For those who missed it, this was the offer :- "Lu mau kena saman ke?"

Now, ask yourself, why would an honest cop ask that kind of question?

...so sad, see you in prison kenny. you will be missed,

The moral of this story...
WEAR UR SEATBELTS~!!...

seriously...i dun doubt ur driving skill...but imagine if there's an accident (choi choi choi)...that click of ur seatbelt could save u more than RM570 leh

Side note:
I dun get our system...it's getting more and more absurd...ISA won't bust Kenny..if they do, they're admitting the fundamental flaws of their own system...

I know its (rasuah) bad...u know its bad...big bad Kenny knows too...but if I'm in his shoes I might take that chance...hassle free

What Kenny did was portraying the facts in our country from his perspective (u can get better feel of this from other avid bloggers ie Mr Kit *ahem*)...

Well..atleast u dun c this in ur normal newspapers...

So yeah...those "anti-rasuah" idealists...can start forming a group to catch those bad cops xD

my pa said when the policeman puts his leg on your vehicle's tyre, that means he's looking for 'kopi-o'

true event or fiction, i tot it wasn't appropriate. case closed.

Oh Kenny,
I am afraid you may have to leave your coconut outside the prison's gate. Anyway, if I come to Kuching, I will bring your some coconut juice.
Cheers.

kenny, they cant fine u for not wearing seatbeat.

I used to bribe them whenevr they caught me not wearing seatbelt, until my frn told me that it's their job to WARN u, not fine you.

so once when i kena caught again, the police hinted that i shld bribe him la. i asked him to saman me! must be garang! hehee.then afterthat he let me go. coz he cant do anything if u dun wear seatbelt one la..

You crack me up, my friend. You - the guy who claims 'Patriotism Misunderstood' was one of your best articles. The same article in which you said stuffs like:

"There are a lot of things not right about our country. 'Efficient' government departments, 'zero' corruption........"

"Are we saying that we should accept handbag-snatchers, dirty streets and crazy-ass traffic officers seeking a contribution to their retirement fund as the norm? Of course not."

"We should NEVER condone corruption as part of the Malaysian culture."

When your friend, F wrote that thing so many moons ago, and I said that Malaysians don't seem to be able to accept and understand flaws for many reasons, you questioned "Why should we?"

You see, corruption is never a good thing. I do not like it, but I accept and I understand it. We don't pay our cops enough, which is why they resort to corruption. We place ethics far below our priority list compared to money, which is why we choose to pay them off. I tell myself - the least I can do is not partake in it. If I make a mistake, I pay the piper.

You, on the other hand chose to say that we should NOT ACCEPT this, no matter what.

Funny then, you should come up with stuffs like this now.

omg... i cant believe how corrupt our nation has become. im not refering to the police. im refering to the people who are reading this and agreeing to it!!! its disgusting. bribary is SO SO SO wrong. it eats up your contions!!! i feel like vomiting. i know many people will hate me for going against the crowd but i truly believe that we should not fuel this sort of actions...

only in asian countries will you find such sort of activities done so openly. im not saying that the western are superior, but im just saying that its horrible of us to just let things like this happen.

anyway, a few friends, my family members and i been stopped before. all of us did not give any bribes and guess what... he werent saman at all!!! fella more worried that you report him...

all i said was that my religion does not allow him... good enough to scare him.

Decent policemans are those who receive briberies.

I wouldn't have blogged about this if I were you.

lol! give the police in that pic some shadows...they look like freakin ghosts...
anyway, entertaining as always. you might want to use a hypothetical situation, like "...a 'friend' bribed a cop today...", u know. just sayin.

haih...makes me think why when i was younger i didn't say something like this:

Teacher : What do you want to be when you grow up?

Me: Traffic policeman

Teacher : Why?

Me: Bcoz u can become richer from the bribes you can get

I bet the teacher would've fainted

ah! the rate here is rm50 per bribe in kl!

My experience: 1 year ago, still a "P" driver.
paid RM40 bucks for a u-turn at bangsa...

after showing ic...
police: u tau tak, tak boleh u-turn dekat dati sana?
me: tapi tak ada sign larang u-turn juga?
[as usual, shouldn't question when got caught in M'sia]
police: bila tiada sign~, tak boleh u-turn lah~! tak baca buku undang-undang ke?
[I dun remember that's such a rule? do u?(pls lemme noe)]
me: so macam mana?
police: u nak macam mana??
[hmm... hahaha]
me: bagi chance la! saya student!
police: so macam mana? [hmm... luring me to offer the bribes]
me: ada student price a? kami [me and my fren] ada RM20 saja
police: *grin + as like it was humor* RM20??!! kami dua orang polis!
me: kami student ma... ok la, RM40...
police: *considering for +- 10 seconds* ok la ok la.... lain kali lebih sikit huh!

Wat the....

haahhahahahahahaha
this post cracks me up

i love reading other comments ... damn funny

My lecturer's husband kena the best line from a police that should've picked up an Oscar. He was on his handphone while driving and this cop walked to him and asked

"Hello, mau jadi kawan tak?"

er kenny...i rememer a post being made by sixthseal about the same thing years ago.

http://www.sixthseal.com/2004/07/shocking_behavior_by_malaysian.html

dun get me wrong but i'm just sayin that everything you do seems to have been done by sixthseal before.

except he writes more eloquently and you make it up by photoshopping. :)

kenny, you should put a disclaimer on your heading : 'some blog entries are works of complete fiction and should not be taken seriously'. this will keep you out of trouble and let you continue blogging freely. dont take unecessary risks and keep up the good work.

I was stopped by traffic police a few times for talking on the handphone while driving. I got the same hint (lu mau kena saman kah?) and the officers always took their time asking for you IC and Driving Licence and chit-chatting with you. I knew they were asking for bribes but I wasn't going to give them any. I knew I was in the wrong and so I kept quiet and waited for them to write up the saman. They kept hinting but I just kept quiet. In the end, they let me go (ini kali warning ah. Lain kali betul betul saman).

yeah this post is too dangerous to post up.. huh... u might get urself into trouble with anti-corruption officer huh

Bribing a police officer is definitely a bigger crime than not fastening seat belt.. and u are openly stating this?

May I tell u that "Prison has no broadband?"

a great post !
anti-corruption is bull shit.

there was once i was chatting on the phone while driving near bukit bintang.

1 traffic police stopped me.

he said he wants to 'tolong'(help) me.

after the usual 'macamana mau settle' thing

i told him i only got rm15 in my wallet(its true).
he told me that was too little.

i told him i could go to the atm and draw more.

he said "tak mau lah. nanti jadi lain cerita pulak"

after much haggling, and he knows that there really is only rm15 in my wallet, he said "oklah, tolong awak lah", took the rm15 and left.

That's why i am proud to be a Malaysian. Win-Win situation. Driver offers bribe, Traffic accepts bribe, Driver and Traffic become buddies. That's the true meaning for RAKAN COP.

Hey Dude, true story. A friend of a friend is a Tua Kao in Cat city's polis HQ. One night they put a drunk Indian guy in jail, this guys has USD 4K in his wallet.The next day, this poor guys found out his USD4K has turned into RM4K. Someone took the USD and exchanged it to RM...as far as the record goes, he got in with 4K and released with all the 4K.

Kenny understands his choices and the risks associated with it. He choose to blog about it.

PERIOD

The fact that everybody knows it's happening doesn't make it right to do it. I remember you wrote a post about Malaysia a few months ago. How do you connect that post and this? C'mon man, Malaysia is our home (despite what 'umnoputras' might say), let's keep it clean.

very shameful of you...very...

Not wearing seatbelt is RM300, not bringing license is RM70 if not mistaken. Why police are taking bribes? My 2 cents is low salary, tough job, lots of politics, now ham cheng bo ho, hard to rise in ranks. What to do?

The conversation really make me rolling on floor laughing! Hahaha! Nice one!

KENNY IS A BRIBER! Thats so lame, you didnt wear seat belts and didnt your licence which both are required by law. What is so hard about putting on the safety belts? Your invincible and would never be involved in an accident isit? Dont you value your life?

Idoit.

I okay, im an idiot.. .for spelling idiot as idoit. If you made an offence, admit it and PAY THE SAMAN. BRIBERY SUX!

I dont bribe! I dont buy pirated DVD's! I go Cinema and watch them movies.

Idiot!

hey kenny, the fact that you intended to bribe is a crime itself. Unless you want to share a cell mate that wants you as a love buddy.... i think you should remove the post and report to ACA accordingly. I don't think you've heard what happened to Patrick Teoh when he tried to air his grievance on air. Trust me..I don't think you want the hassle.

Damn it Kenny, you are giving the game away I was hoping to take this to my grave.

just say, 'Saman sekarang lah, boleh? Tak payah susah susah nanti mau pigi bayar lagi..kena beratur...susah lah...' ...

lol..

That is really the joys of living in a third world country. :) its malaysian culture.

WOW! This is seriously amazing.

Quote "You seemed like a good, honest kutchin boy but you don't think like one. Yes, everyone buys pirated cds but how can you compare that with bribin a fellow? It is morally wrong, this conduct you deem is reality. Just some serious reflection here."

Does anyone else see the irony in that? So its yay ok to buy pirated vcds and deprive artistes of their earnings but its not ok to save yourself 600rm? You have issues dude lol. The next time everyone who condemned kenny encounters the same situation, please let us know you decided to pay 600 instead of 30 lol. I salute you then hahaha *rolls eyes*

You should really beware of the consequences of posting up this blog...

Culture Shock at it's best.

Catizen, who cares about morality these days, really. No one cares. NO ONE!

Ahem, well, thanx for the bribing tips, Kenny. Pretty enlightening.

no big deal, the world already know that malaysia is a very corrupted country

hi kenny,

Take my suggestion, i did recommend u to remove your post on this. indeed you may escape the getting jail, but trust me bro.... the ACA can do all their best to cause inconvenience to you. They can just call u to balai for some coffee, minus laptop and broadband. Believe me, even if they do have the evidence on authenticity of the post, it sure gonna be a hassle for you. All this shitz been all along ever since merdeka. everyone knows it, Mahathir, Pak Lah,The Star, NST even the "big Dog". But think about it kenny, when everyone knows with some heroes tried to air their grievance and just be rewarded for jail. Is it worth it to be the another hero? I bet your late dad will be freaking worry if he knows about it too.
Anyway, if ur screwed.......REMEMBER TO POST how the coffee taste in ACA in the conventional Kennysia style. Ok? Take Care, and i hope you will sincerely think of the consequences...:P

Kenny,

Why the policemen standing on the road no shadow one?? Ghosts?

there is a seatbelt law for a reason. if you don't want to protect yourself, no amount of bribe or fine money can protect you.

there is a seatbelt law for a reason. If you don't want to protect yourself, no amount of bribe/fine money can protect you.

we MESRA with the polieman only leh so we give them some token leh ada salah kah

Nice hoax kenny. Using yourself in a fake bribery situation ;) to illustrate a point.

heh. no seatbelt, if injured, maybe we can also bribe our way out of death?

imagine this
Death: oi you know you no pakai seatbelt?
you: :(
death: how? you wanna die? die very troublesome one wor, have to buy coffin, funeral
you: so how? first time la.
death: veli easy only one. chia me then i let you go.

i think you have slightly crossed the line this time.. being a high profile blogger, i worry for you. It will get out of control once any local newspaper start getting excerpt from your blog. Police would not want to lose face. Careful.

since you're here, i going to share

SAYA ANTI RASUAH!== SAYA NANTI RASUAH!

MALAYSIABOLEH~

Kenny you're such a dum dum. Even if the story if fictional you could be liable for libel/defamation.

Whatever it is, the cops can cause you a lot of trouble because you're publicly tainting their image even with a fictional article.

You can argue all you want about them not being able to prosecute you, but before you can defend yourself in court, they'll probably have taught you a lesson in the lock up already.

kenny u did a great job for posting this entry, but the fact that u actually bribed the cop, even though he asked for it, as a responsible citizen ( i assume u really love malaysia), u shouldn't bribe him. cos u did offend the law for not putting on ur seatbelt (u're actually risking ur own life) n for not bringing ur 'lesen'. i know 600 bucks is big, but its also ur responsibility. be a good role model, dont do it next time la... u know la got many youngsters look up to u. wat if someone said: kenny can do it, i also can! then down la... :P

A very very enlightening post about my country of citizenship – thanks Kenny! I must admit I wouldn’t have the balls (and lack of brains :P) to post something up like this. To all you guys saying Kenny shouldn’t do this, I wonder if you would actually follow what you preach. RM30 as opposed to RM600. It’s a no-brainer. Yes, we shouldn’t on principal… but can you actually say
