That was my reaction, too. See my blog.

Too much airtime given and too many stupid questions asked by the TV3 reporter to Nurin's younger sister ("adik rasa kak ngah tak mati lagi kan?" tiunali...)

IGP mentioned child endangerment act.

I agree that is one of the approach.

It seems there is a controversy (or a miscommunication) between the family & the police over the announcement of the DNA tests. The family were annoyed the Press got the info first and they had to get it officially at night in the PJ CPO Office.
When the soul is ready to release the body, when it has accomplished what it came here to do, it moves on, even in the case of infants & children. What could they accomplish? – You might ask. They may have come into this life to experience unconditional love, to feel the physical body, to experiment with changing form, to give love or other gifts, to meet a personal karmic situation as self-judgment, a point of view, something that had to be confronted and processed. There is always a reason., to reallize that each soul is making these decisions is a beautiful, healing and freeing experience.

Badawi should have realized it's long past just being sad, angry or touched. None of these emotions will bring the poor child back. More importantly, they won't also prevent the next and next and next rape and murder.

The buck on this grievous and heinous matter must stop somewhere.

He should have escalated matters - get the rakyat to meet him and the enforcement people in full public view. Get the problem aired definitively. Get national focus on it once and for all. Get ideas on how to tackle the problem with preventive measures, better monitoring, education of both parents and the young. Set up a single national hotline where people can quickly alert for prompt life-saving response. Get headmasters to make monday morning announcements. Get the profiles out on what had happened in previous cases so that the rakyat can be more alert to potential killers lurking in the crowd and elsewhere, so that children will be more aware of the dangers of strangers and places. And if it's substance-abuse, intensify the rounding-up of drug addicts and peddlers. Do a strong round of media campaigns showing situations where such things can happen. Stick it into everyone's mind that there will be no mercy shown on anyone who abuses any woman or child. Increase the punishment and publicise it.

The last thing the rakyat need is just some spineless statement about grieving. Who in this country isn't at the moment? The most important thing is what are you going to do about it across the whole country, in every strata, on every race and community.

Wake up, Badawi, before the next and next and next dear Nurin ...

Where lives are concerned, and where lives have been taken in such horrific manner, go for administrative overkill.
