Sabah JP's want to be recognised as second class magistrates

 

Here is my open email to the President of MAJAPS. Read my post yesterday to better understand this email to Datuk Seri Dr. Clarence B. Malakun (Photo above).

Dear Datuk Seri Dr. Clarence Bongkos Malakun,

I read with interest an article in the daily Express as follows:

Majaps wants powers of JPs to be restored

Published on: Sunday, August 16, 2020 on the Daily Express, Sabah.

Here are some extracts:

“We are trying to get the federal ministry of law to give a circular directing all federal government departments in Sabah to recognise the signature of JPs.

“If that cannot be done, then maybe it will have to be done in the Parliament to enhance the JPs’ powers in Sabah,” said Majaps President Datuk Seri Dr Clarence Bongkos Malakun

“Actually we want Sabah JPs’ signatures to be recognised…the RTD no longer recognises our signatures. It is embarrassing for us to be made JPs but can’t do anything,” he said.

Malakun added that the powers of JPs in the peninsula were quite clear.

“We want actually to be recognised as a second class magistrate,” he said.

My emails to The Sabah Council of the Justices of the Peace (MAJAPS)

 

I read an article in the daily express dated 16.8.2020 and it reminded me of my emails to the MAJAPS president in 2017.

I intend to write another email to MAJAPS but here is a reply from MAJAPS to my emails in 2017 and my response to its email which was not responded to. Without this background information my intended email to MAJAPS will not make sense. 

My response to MAJAPS dated 22.5.2017

Dear Datuk Seri Panglima Clarence B. Malakun,

Thank you for your long awaited response to my several emails the first of which was dated 24.2.2017 and several telephone calls to your personal secretary.

Let me just make it clear to you that this is not a matter of exacting revenge but requesting you to look into a complaint of a member of MAJAPS who has acted without integrity.
