大馬银行（AmBank）创办人遭枪杀！
疑涉及商業糾紛，大馬銀行集團前身阿馬銀行的伊朗籍創辦人攜華裔妻子談生意后，在觀音廟前的泊車場，遭華裔神秘槍手連開6槍奪命！
槍手隨后從容乘坐同黨接應的德士離開現場，死者妻子身中2槍后送往醫院急救。
消息指，死者遇害前，與人洽談一宗據傳涉及數百萬令吉的商業交易。
妻子中2槍送院
此案于今午約1時30分，在隆市錫蘭巷的咖啡山觀音廟前的收費泊車場發生，死者為伊朗籍男子胡先阿馬（75歲），傷者是張美君（譯音，49歲）。
吉隆坡刑事調查組副主任凱里助理總監指出，死者與妻子于中午12時30分前往與1名華裔男子會面，討論交易內容，會面后死者與妻子前往觀音廟。
他透露，死者與妻子從觀音廟出來后走向停車場，途中遭1名華裔槍手開槍亂射，死者胸口及左腹要害中槍，倒地身亡，其妻子左手及右腿中槍受傷。
“嫌犯疑在死者進入觀音廟后開始埋伏，隨后向死傷者開槍，並在廟宇外2名同黨接應下，乘上德士離開現場。”
據了解，現場閉路電視並無拍攝清楚嫌犯面貌，警方目前僅得悉嫌犯年齡介于35歲至40歲。
警方目前援引刑事法典第302（謀殺）條文及刑事法典307（企圖謀殺）條文調查，並呼籲目擊者現身向警方提供情報。
據了解，死者胡先阿馬生前為阿馬銀行（Arab-Malaysian Development Bank）創辦人，后將銀行脫手轉售給現任大馬銀行集團主席丹斯里阿茲曼哈欣，才將銀行改名為大馬銀行。
電眼只拍到槍手背影
消息說，槍手幹案過程中年常冷靜，案發后從容持著槍械從觀音廟側門離開案發現場，警方不排除是職業殺手所為。
目擊者透露，槍手並沒有蒙臉，只著戴著眼鏡及鴨舌帽。
儘管案發現場的觀音廟和泊車場都有安裝閉路電視，警方事后查閱，發現閉路電視只拍到槍手背影，未將真面目攝錄下來。
目擊者說，槍殺案發生前有許多小販和善男信女，但是當大家聽到槍聲時都四處遁逃，生怕被子彈擊中。
因此當眾人在槍聲后出來查探時，只見到死者已倒在地上，滿身是血。
死者遺體較后送往隆市中央醫院太平間剖驗，其妻子則在公眾協助下送往同善醫院治療。
兒子震驚冀早日擒兇
死者兒子獲悉父親被槍殺后深感震驚，並促請大馬執法單位嚴陣看待此案，早日擒獲兇手。
也是銀行家的死者兒子帕斯卡（45歲），目前正在俄羅斯首都莫斯科協助父親處理當地的銀行業務。
他今晚透過越洋電訪時指，他已從警方口中獲悉父親逝世的惡耗，其他家人知道后也感到震驚，並透露父親在馬定居多年，一向熱愛大馬。
“父親在光天化日下也會被槍殺，我希望大馬警方能夠認真看待此案，全世界的目光也將注意這宗案件。”
他指出，父親被槍殺已令他對大馬治安失去信心，若警方無法擒獲殺害父親的兇手，他對于將來是否回國心存顧慮。
據悉，警方已從現場留下的彈殼，初步判定嫌犯使用的凶器為一把半自動手槍。
另一方面，死者妻子目前傷勢穩定，並于週一晚上7時50分轉送隆市太子閣醫藥中心。

VIRAL VIDEO: City Harvest Church founder Kong Hee says that God apologised to him for the suffering he had been through over the last 8 months. Kong related himself to Jesus Christ and the suffering Jesus went through.
"For the first time in eight months, God, I heard Him cry. And he said 'My son, Kong, thank you. Thank you for going through this. I need you to go through this alone, so that you and City Harvest Church can be the man and the ministry I call it to be."
The Conjuring Special Screening
Went for a special screening of The Conjuring... Horror/ ghost movie directed by Malaysian born Australian director: James Wan.
Since it was a movie on the paranormal with possessed demonic dolls and spooks,
my daughter did not dare to go so it was just the 2 of us!!
Movie date!
In this movie, the whole audience got very into the story and the entire cinema gasped at the "clap" and jumped at the "hands clapping" and also were shocked at other scenes in unison! Such an interactive movie!
Hollywood film-makers do enjoy adding shock factors to such genre, and sometimes these unnecessary jolts come across as cheap and trite. Real suspense and scares comes from good stories that may not even see a drop of blood being spilled.

My date!!! Hehe..
James Wan the director of The Conjuring
Wan was born in Sarawak but moved to Australia when he was young. After completing a degree in arts from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), he ventured into movie-making. Wan got his first big break when he co-wrote and directed the horror slasher film Saw in 2004.
The movie was so popular that it spawned six sequels and started a trend called “torture porn” – movies with graphic violence (Hostel and Turistas are examples).
“I hated that I was called the Godfather of torture porn,” he laments. Wan has since moved on. In The Conjuring, as well as Insidious, the spookiness that Wan employs is more psychological than visual.
After more than a decade honing his craft in the horror genre, James Wan is ready to try something new. Wan has been picked to direct the next The Fast And The Furious instalment, and he is excited about this new project.
I am so lazy to do a review but I found a good one in today's NST:
IT is refreshing to come across a horror movie with a paranormal slant that is not built on someone’s penchant for blood and gore.
Hollywood film-makers do enjoy adding shock factors to such genre, and sometimes these unnecessary jolts come across as cheap and trite. Real suspense and scares comes from good stories that may not even see a drop of blood being spilled.
For a story based on true accounts, the suspense level is expectedly much higher. The Conjuring is based on one of the case files of famous paranormal investigative team of Ed and Lorraine Warren. The case was so horrifying that they had locked it away, until now, if you want to believe it.
The film centres on the many hauntings experienced by the Perron family — Roger, his wife Carolyn and their five daughters April, Christine, Andrea, Nancy and Cindy — at their house in the 1970s.
In the film, Roger (Ron Livingston), Carolyn (Lili Taylor) and their kids move into a remote farmhouse on Rhode Island. It is haunted by several entities but there is one that is extra malevolent and wants the family dead.
The Conjuring opens first with an introduction to Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga) as they explain one case they had dealt with which involved the famous “Annabell doll”.
Then it moves back to the Perrons who realise, after numerous horrifying events, that there is an unexplained dark presence in their new home. Carolyn then calls the Warrens, hoping to find an explanation to what is happening to her and her family.
Although The Conjuring incorporates the common themes of haunted houses and possession, you will still be curious to find out how the story will unravel.
No hauntings are similar and director James Wan proved this with his previous films, Saw and Insidious, where he prefers to explore different ways to bring in the horror without making them appear unrealistic.
The Conjuring offers plenty of scares in the most unusual places. It’s a spooky ride into a creepy dimension rarely visited by other mainstream film-makers and you’d be forgiven for wishing that the movie will end soon.
The spooks and suspense sequences are so good and are executed in such heart-stopping manner that horror fans will find much relish in them. Quite easily, The Conjuring delivers plenty of scares to make it one of the best in the genre ever made. It starts off rather slow, but as the momentum builds, it does not stop bringing in the scares and that’s when you wish it does.
The eldest Perron daughter, Andrea, who still talks about the horrors of the haunting and has written a book about it, said in an interview that the film has truly captured the essence of what happened to her family.
One interesting scene features the Perron kids playing a game called Hide And Clap, where they hide and clap to give the seeker a clue to their whereabouts. It’s almost similar to Hide And Seek, but in a house full of ghosts, you don’t want to know who or what is “clapping”. Oh, the suspense!
The youngest Perron, April, says her new friend, Rory, can only be seen in the mirror of a music box that she has found in the house. When Carolyn and Lorraine express a wish to see Rory, what happens next is so cleverly built that viewers will find themselves cowering in their seats. In my case, I kept my eyes shut.
Viewers will step into the horror and its spooky universe from the perspectives of both the Perrons and the Warrens as they learn about the history of the mysterious house. The secrets are revealed bit by bit.
There is an element of drama around Carolyn, who loves her family and Lorraine, whose gift of clairvoyance is taking a toll on her life little by little, as observed by her husband.
Farmiga embodies the character of Lorraine and excellently executes the scenes where she “sees” things. She shows that the ability to see the unseen can be a curse.
Lili Taylor isn’t new to the horror scene, having done The Haunting (1999) alongside Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Owen Wilson. Although a woman with a gentle demeanour, Taylor portrays the part of a frightened parent and a disturbed soul perfectly. All the cast members play their parts effectively, creating a beautiful on-screen chemistry that strengthens the plot.
The haunting scenes look real and they don’t look like CGI. Just like TV programmes such as Ghost Hunters, the Warrens also apply a scientific approach to their cases, using relevant gadgets and cool audio visual equipment (for the era they were from) for their investigations.
Like Insidious, the music score is the star as well, bringing the suspense to a different level.
We don’t know how much of the film is truth, but we do know that it is part of what really happened to the Perron family. One thing for sure, viewers will get a thrill out of The Conjuring.

Look Out Point to be closed permanently

OUT OF BOUNDS: The area where the tourist attraction is located is unsafe for any activities due to its unstable earth structure
KAJANG: TOURISM brochures and road signages pointing to the direction of what used to be a tourist attraction that offered the best view of Kuala Lumpur's skyline -- Look Out Point -- will soon be removed as it has been announced that the place will be closed to visitors.
The permanent closure was announced by the Selangor state government following a slope study that was done by Malaysian Public Works Institute (Ikram).
Studies have concluded that the entire area where the Look Out Point is located is unsafe due to its unstable earth structure.
the area was deserted and some areas covered in thick undergrowth.
The entrance gate to the Look Out Point was locked and barriers placed to prevent people from going into the area.
There were also mounds of sand placed at the fringes of the area to prevent people from driving into its parking area.
A row of shops, which used to house restaurants such as Ikan Bakar Patin Pahang and Samudra D' Menara Tinjau, had their shutters down and looked abandoned.
