Not Just eye-brows raised here!

Eyebrows raised, hearts crestfallen - How I wish I never knew or heard of the notion of separation of powers. It may be easier for me to digest things, to live life in ignorance, in bliss. Maybe the majority of Malaysians can never, ever be fair and impartial after so long believing in one cause. To just the next day drop everything you've ever stood for and fought for politically for years and years. To not think of such affiliation when faced with deciding for or against any matter before you. But we must believe, that some people, or one or two persons, can..

As such, just because you and I can't fathom the idea, doesn't mean other super beings can't. So it is the minority few who can do so that we should give credit to. Some people are marvels, so I guess we should instead of raising our eye-brows, marvel at their abilities.. or like the Bar, congratulate these people.

Maybe many more members of the Bar would be elevated dato'ships.. who knows..

chosen excerpts from Malaysiakini :
Abdul Hamid is new CJ, Zaki is judiciary's No 2

Court of Appeal president Abdul Hamid Mohamad has been today appointed as the new chief justice, which is the judiciary's most powerful post.

Meanwhile Zaki Azmi - who has parachuted into the Federal Court three months ago - has been appointed Court of Appeal president, taking over Abdul Hamid’s former post.

The unconventional elevation of Zaki, 62, could pose another blow to the ailing reputation of the judiciary. Exactly three months ago, he became the first lawyer to be directly appointed into the Federal Court.
Zaki's lightning-fast promotion to the judiciary's No 2 post is unprecedented and is expected to raise eyebrows.

Zaki previously served as Umno’s legal adviser and disciplinary committee chairperson. He was also the party’s selection committee secretary and deputy chairperson of the disciplinary board appeal panel.

While congratulating both Abdul Hamid and Zaki on their appointment, Ambiga also said that the Bar was looking forward to a new era of co-operation with the judiciary.

It will be quite an era....
