DVD stakeout at shopping malls
Report from The STAR dated Thursday 25 May 2006 :-
DVD stakeout at shopping malls KUALA LUMPUR: In a move to stamp out DVD and VCD pirates, enforcement officers from the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry will be stationed at popular shopping complexes in five towns and cities. Deputy Minister Datuk S. Veerasingam said the officers had been stationed in complexes in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Kota Kinabalu, Johor Baru and Kuantan. In Johor Baru, 50 officers have already been monitoring the situation round the clock at the Holiday Plaza since last weekend after a raid on one of the shop lots at the mall in which 200 pirated DVDs and RM100,000 worth of pirated goods were seized. “DVD and VCD piracy is still under control but we're intensifying our efforts to wipe it out,” he said. “We have taken action against a lot of people and have closed down four companies in Kajang, Batu Caves and Johor while another seven are under investigation.” He said the ministry had also set up an intelligence unit to gather information on the peddlers as well as factories producing the pirated DVDs and VCDs. “The unit was set up recently with a small workforce. We hope to score some successes soon,” he told The Star. After evaluating the progress in the five areas, the monitoring might be extended to other towns, Veerasingam said. The Motion Picture Association of America, he said, had also sent a letter to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi thanking him for action against piracy. He said it was part of the National Integrity Plan to enhance good business ethics and urged consumers to play their part by not buying fake products. He said that most of the raids were made after complaints were made by the intellectual property owners who had purchased the pirated goods. “Sometimes our officers would go in plain clothes to try and buy the fake items. Normally the items are not displayed openly but upon request the operators would bring them out for the customer,” he said. Between Jan 1 and April 30, 2006, the enforcement officers had undertaken 6,634 inspections, with 1,005 cases registered and goods worth RM54.3mil confiscated. --- KatoeyNewsNetwork www.knn.com |

Crackdown on fake goods in JB
Report from The STAR dated Thursday 25 May 2006 :-
Crackdown on fake goods in JB JOHOR BARU: The state Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry has taken the piracy war a step further by clamping down on premises selling fakes. On Saturday, some 60 officers from the ministry, police and the Johor Baru city council (MBJB) raided the Holiday Plaza here, checking 31 outlets and seizing more than 200 DVDs. A day later, 10 other premises were raided and the enforcement officers seized more than RM100,000 worth of pirated goods. “The pirated goods were cheap imitations of branded items, like belts, wallets, handbags and sunglasses,” said the division's acting director Adilah Abd Aziz. “On the same day, a 20-year-old youth was also arrested for selling pirated DVDs in Pasir Gudang, and 530 DVDs were seized from him,” she said, adding that he would be charged under the Copyright Act 1987. She said a team of 50 enforcement officers were being stationed at Holiday Plaza to monitor the situation. The move is believed to be a last resort following numerous reminders to shopping complexes to voluntarily refrain from piracy. “As of now, these personnel are being divided into three teams, with each team in charge of a zone at the shopping complex, and working in shifts of two,” Adilah said. She added that the officers would check every outlet. Adilah said the officers would be stationed there from the time the shopping complex opened for business until it closed at night. “We plan to do this for at least one month and hope to curb piracy at this complex,” Adilah said, adding so far none of her officers had been harmed. She said other than Holiday Plaza, the department also raided a hypermarket in Tampoi last week. The division has stationed five officers at the premises. Holiday Plaza is similar to Petaling Street in Kuala Lumpur, and notorious for the sale of fake and pirated goods. The complex has been raided many times and some of the outlets have secret doors, which are monitored by closed circuit television cameras. --- KatoeyNewsNetwork www.knn.com |

Sex romps going cheap in Johor Bahru
Report from The STAR dated Thursday 1 June 2006 :-
Sex romps going cheap in Johor Bahru SEX for sale for as low as RM3 per session. China Press reported that this is the situation at a certain red-light district in Johor Baru, following keen competition among the women and transvestites there. The daily said most of them are Indonesians in their early 20s, who would sit at roadside stalls and alleys from about 8pm and approach potential customers. A stall operator said the women would dress modestly and pretend to wait for transport in the area. “They look like ordinary people but regular customers and we, the stall operators here, can identify them,” he said. The bolder ones, he said, carried out their “business” with equally bold clients in the dark alleys, oblivious to those who passed by. --- KatoeyNewsNetwork |

JB Fun places
Dear all, I got some problems here and need some advice.
A friend of mine (who is not a samster) is asking me for help. His bosses from KL will be visiting JB next week and as you all know when all the "ma lak lou" leave their house/hometown, the werewolf's tail, tougue and dick will appear hunting for local dishes. The problem is most of the LSB has close down and the girls also very limited. I am thinking of Santum and Jazz & Blue. PRC girls preferable. Can I know which one is better. What is the damage like? Besides the above places, any other places where we can have girls sitting on our laps? Personally I am more on massage and HC but not on nightclub. Please help. Thank you.
