Parliamentarians & Bicameral 'Proximity'
November 27, lawyer/State Assemblyman Teng Chang Khim posted on his blog a photographic negative of a man, "apparently wearing a bathrobe", and woman in his chest. YB Teng said the man is a Member of Parliament while the woman is a Senator. The problem is "both are married but not to each other", Teng said.
The couple made public denials, separately, on the same day. But yesterday, the story line was changed a little as they both told the Press in a joint statement, issued through law firm Shafee & Co, that they did take the pictures together – but "always in the presence of a third party and never in inappropriate situations or in hotel rooms".
Yesterday, Teng followed up by publishing a police report filed by the Senator's husband on October 8, 2006. The police report, as the record shows, was filed for the purpose of court proceeding.
The police report could indirectly tell how the photographic negative may have originated.

While Teng has raised the issue of hypocrisy among the higher echelon leaders, I am more concerned about the potential impact of this controversy involving one member each from the Lower (Dewan Rakyat) and the Upper (Dewan Negara) Houses of the Parliament, the country's bicameral legislative arms.
Screenshots had viewed the identities of the subjects featured in the photographic negative that Teng published. The method is rather STRAIGHT FORWARD. Use Adobe Photoshop, or any other image management applications for that matter, copy the negative image, click "File" --> "New", then hit Ctrl V and Ctrl I, viola!
Read Teng's numerous postings on the issue: Here (The Denial), here (Senator's Dad), here (Clues), here (Umno Supreme Council) and here (Legal Suit Threat).
But for the sake of the dignity of the Parliament, will the controversy be killed off soon? Mujhey nahi maloom.

aiyah...dont have photoshop! Anyone has direct link to the clear picture?
These people now always claim the doctored picture defense.
Remember Kru's Edy and Linda Rafar? According to some expert, the picture are indeed real and not doctored. Anything done to these individuals?? NOPE!!

According to the fake detective, the pictures are real.

you don't need to have pgotoshop, even paintbrush or photo editor can do it - just copy and paste and "invert". It appears to me that this picture originally is in color (maybe captured by h/p or digcam) and someone "inverted" it before send it around creating a fuss.

The picture looks questionable, actually. His face looks as if it was pasted on.

If it is a paste on. Then, why didn't the woman clarify who actually that man she was leaning against? Is it her husband or someone else?

By looking at the pictures scanning the pixel itself, correct me if i am wrong . the picture seems real ..looks like taken with a handphone . Very CMOS quality. A lot of digital noise in the background.
No one would like to take photos with hp and take it for tampering as the pixels would be evident clear.

the husband is the one who saw the pictures... and a police report lodged... so you judge if it's real or fake...
