Bukit Harapan was founded by Anne John P. Arulnaselam-Keyworth a.k.a. Mama Anne and began operating its first Home in Keningau on January 9th, 1989. The Rector of St. Francis Xavier Church had offered the use of a vacant house in the compound with five Special Children and two helpers. This small team provided every aspect of the childrens’ needs giving care, education, therapy, all domestic chores, administration, plus meeting with families and, of course, love. It was an exhilarating start to our work which required much perseverance to succeed.

Ordered to kick him out but the police ended up SALUTING KARPAL

KUALA LUMPUR – One of the country’s former top cops was asked to kick the late Karpal Singh out of the Penang State Assembly after he was suspended in 1981. He ended up walking arm-in-arm with Karpal out of the building past a large number of policemen in riot gear. The policemen saluted the lawyer.

Tan Sri Zaman Khan, the then state police chief, remembers that day with fondness.

Karpal was suspended from attending the state assembly in December 1981 but decided to gatecrash it anyway.

The lawyer’s face lit up when he saw the officers. “Ah! The police chief is here!” exclaimed Karpal amidst a pile of folded paper.

Gentle persuasion did not work with Karpal – who ironically ushered Zaman’s officers out of the chamber – refusing to budge.

“Get out! Get out!” Zaman ordered. Karpal finally relented and walked out as his colleagues booed him.

Outside, there was a table between the two men. Zaman said he placed the briefcase on it but the tablecloth slipped off and so did the bag.

“Zaman, you threw my bag … pick up my bag,” Karpal ordered. It was a daring command to ask of a top police officer, Karpal admitted later in his autobiography but was shocked when Zaman actually heeded him and picked up a his bag.

“I didn’t want any more quarrelling. It was quite an experience. Karpal never went down without a fight for what he believed in. Some liked him, some didn’t. But everyone respected him,” said Zaman, who described the late politician as a nice person outside the courtroom. -Asiaone

Penang renames promenade after Karpal

A promenade in Jelutong will be named Persiaran Karpal Singh in honour of the late Bukit Gelugor MP who died in a road accident on Thursday.

Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng announced this today.

The 800 seafront walkway in Sungai Pinang is also near where DAP’s ‘water Ubah’ mascot is located.

Karpal was Jelutong MP for two decades, a tenure that earned him the nicknamed ‘Tiger of Jelutong’.
