A man died after being stabbed following an argument with a friend at a construction site in Inanam, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, early morning yesterday, Thursday 2 July 2026.

In the 1.30am incident, which took place behind a vehicle showroom, the 34-year-old foreign national was stabbed four times. His body was later found in a nearby manhole, FMT quoted Malay daily Sinar Harian news report.

Acting Kota Kinabalu police chief Tuan Syed Lot Syed Ab Rahman said police were informed of the incident at 1.40am, and a report was lodged at 2.23am.

He said preliminary investigations found that the victim had gone out with the suspect for drinks in the Penampang area. They returned to their quarters at the site at about 11pm.

“However, an argument ensued between the two, believed to have been due to a misunderstanding while they were both drunk.

“The victim is believed to have hit the suspect with a piece of wood. The suspect then stabbed him four times with a vegetable knife,” Syed Lot was quoted as saying.

He said the Sabah police criminal investigation department’s forensic team had inspected the scene, while the victim’s body had been sent to Queen Elizabeth Hospital I for an autopsy.

“Efforts to trace and arrest the suspect, and to seize the weapon he used, are ongoing,” he said, adding that the case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.

MAHATHIR MAY REJOIN UMNO

Image
What Mahathir expected did not happen Initially, Mahathir Mohamad thought his party – PPBM (Bersatu) – could  morph  into a new version of UMNO. After all, it was him who brilliantly destroyed the original UMNO in 1988 and created “UMNO Baru” (the current UMNO version 2.0). But unlike in 1988, Mr. Mahathir had quit UMNO to form PPBM on 8 September 2016, and was no longer in charge of UMNO. UMNO won four times higher than Bersatu in GE14 Hence, after he leveraged on opposition Pakatan Harapan and stunningly defeated the scandal-plagued Najib government, his first priority was  recruiting  UMNO MPs to join his party. UMNO, although lost miserably, still won 54 parliamentary seats in the May 2018 General Election – more than 4 times the number of seats Mahathir’s party managed to capture. PPBM the worst among four strategic parties Mahathir’s party won  only 13 seats  out of the 52 Parliamentary seats it contested in the 2018 poll. That’s ...

Ketua Pemuda UMNO ajak Ahli MKT UMNO bertumbuk

Image
Dua tokoh parti politik yang sukar dipisahkan dari imej rasuah , semakin panas bertelagah Rentak Madani 🎵 Akhbar Sinar Harian melaporkan semalam bahawa Ketua Pemuda UMNO, Datuk Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh mencabar Ahli Majlis Kerja Tertinggi (MKT) UMNO,  Datuk Lokman Noor Adam  supaya berdepan dengannya sama ada di mahkamah ataupun di gelanggang, berikutan tuduhan kononnya beliau mempunyai agenda tersembunyi untuk menaikkan  Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein  sebagai Perdana Menteri. Amaran itu dibuat selepas Lokman secara terbuka menggelar beliau sebagai ‘Ketua Pemuda H20’ dalam satu wawancara bersama sebuah platform baru-baru ini. Menurut Muhamad Akmal, Lokman kini mempunyai dua pilihan, sama ada menjawab saman beliau di mahkamah ataupun bertemu di gelanggang bagi menyelesaikan isu berkenaan. “Kamu ada dua pilihan. Pilihan pertama, kita lawan di mahkamah. Aku saman kamu," cabar Akmal. Lokman berpendapat, Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Merlimau itu menggunakan kelebih...

Isu Stadium Shah Alam, suami Hannah Yeoh dapat kontrak, parkir, terkini babi — faktor penyumbang PH kalah di PRN akan datang

Image
Lebih kurang UMNO juga Satu demi satu isu mencurigakan berlaku di Selangor. Pada mulanya Pakatan Harapan (PH) disangka akan membuat pembaharuan. Rupanya lebih kurang UMNO juga. Jika UMNO sudah dihukum rakyat di Selangor, maka sudah tiba giliran PH pula. Seperti tajuk di atas, isu Stadium Shah Alam, suami Menteri DAP Puan Hannah Yeoh dapat kontrak, kontroversi pemilik syarikat parkir, dan terkini kontroversi ladang babi dijangka akan menjadi faktor penyumbang PH kalah di PRN akan datang. Semalam,  MalaysiaGazette melaporkan b ekas Ketua Penerangan UMNO Selangor Encik Isham Jalil menyarankan Menteri Besar Selangor, para Exco Kerajaan Negeri dan penyokongnya supaya berpindah ke Bukit Tagar, kawasan berdekatan ladang babi yang menimbulkan kontroversi. Dengan tindakan berkenaan, barulah kepimpinan Selangor akan memahami bantahan  penduduk  Selangor terhadap cadangan untuk menjadikan negeri berkenaan sebagai pengeksport babi terbesar ke Singapura. “ Selepas   itu   b...

OVERCONCENTRATION OF A MALAY POPULATION MAKES SHAH ALAM A GHOST CITY, SAYS ANALYST

Image
Shah Alam City YESTERDAY, FMT reported that the capital city of Selangor had become very quiet, slow and almost no business, many buildings unoccupied, which one of them only utilised by less than ten staff of a company. Some factories closed down, businesses from petty traders to big timers closed shops for the past six months and so on. Even foreign business people from Indonesia and Pakistan decided to go back to their respective countries or moved to other places. A prominent business analyst, in his blog wrote that one of the reasons for the downfall of Shah Alam was the government's policy in overconcentrating a Malay population in the said city. Syed Albar Ali also suggested other reasons as well. Below is the write-up as published by OutSyed The Box on 30 January 2020. Syed Akbar Ali's comments :   Just the other day Forest City announced 400 staff were being let go.  Could it be because things are not so great anymore? D...

Bersama expected to win half of PKR, DAP and Amanah's existing parliamentary and state seats in Johor

Image
Analysts say Johor state elections will be PH Vs BN — but they overlook Bersama PAS and Bersatu are expected to face a rough ride in the upcoming Johor state election, as both parties look set to go their own way while their potential allies appear lacklustre. Though both parties have announced efforts to form new political configurations amid Perikatan Nasional’s ongoing crisis, news portal FMT spoke to Dr Mazlan Ali of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and he said these new alliances would not be earth-shattering in Johor. Mazlan said both parties had limited options for allies, having been linked to the same entities such as Berjasa, Pejuang, Putra, and Muda. He added that these small parties command little influence and are incapable of taking on Barisan Nasional or Pakatan Harapan. “I don’t see any real competition in Johor. It will be more like BN against PH, as PAS and Bersatu have been weakened by their division. “Although these small parties will want to help them, they will not ...

It happens everywhere—Not only in our country

Image
THE WOLF NEVER WANTED THE ARGUMENT A Wolf And A Lamb Meet At A Stream. Not As Enemies. As Neighbors Sharing Water. The Wolf Is Higher Up The Brook. The Water Runs From Him To Her. Still, He Accuses. “You Muddy My Water.” The Lamb Answers Gently. She Is Correct. Physics Is On Her Side. The Water Cannot Flow Upward. The Accusation Collapses Instantly. So The Wolf Replaces It. “I Heard You Spoke Ill Of Me Last Year.” The Lamb Explains Again. She Is Six Months Old. She Did Not Exist Last Year. Another Charge Fails. So The Wolf Stops Pretending To Care About Truth. “If It Was Not You, It Was Your Father.” And With That, The Argument Ends. The Teeth Appear. The Lamb Is Eaten. This Story Is Not About Cruelty. It Is About Power. The Wolf Never Wanted An Explanation. He Wanted A Justification. Each Accusation Was Not A Question But A Stepping Stone Toward An Outcome Already Decided. This Is The Pattern Predators Follow: They Accuse First. Then Adjust The Accusation Until Resistance Looks Like G...

Will Bersama "bersama-sama" Bersatu?

Image
What I think about Rafizi’s new Party, BERSAMA By the way, that was me signing my application to join PPBM or Bersatu back in 2016. I was excited to welcome a new party that can reset Malaysia after Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak’s 1MDB. I was probably as excited as some of you planning to join Datuk Seri Mohd Rafizi Ramli’s Bersama political party. My PPBM membership was 000068. Talk about being one of the first. Najib lost PRU14 in 2018 bringing the collapse of UMNO dominance since Merdeka.  Najib said UMNO would be dominant for 1000 years but in reality UMNO lasted just 61 years. Hubris was Najib’s downfall.  Tun M was at the helm and I was excited, finally we would see progress. I was wrong. The constant pressuring to let Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim become PM finally caused the coalition to collapse. Gentlemanly Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad resigned. People say Tun M is drunk for power. I often correct them that this old man resigned as Prime Minister twice. TWICE. What do ...

Sama juga dengan awak semasa menjadi Ketua Pesuruhjaya SPRM dulu

Image
Politik kelas kambing memang begitu Walaupun bekas perdana menteri Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak dijatuhi hukuman penjara kerana menyelewengkan dana 1MDB, namun peguam dan aktivis Cik Latheefa Koya berkata dia tiada banyak sebab untuk meraikannya, lapor  Malaysiakini semalam. Bekas ketua Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) itu membangkitkan isu pilih kasih antara apa yang berlaku terhadap Najib dan beberapa ahli politik lain yang sebersekutu dengan Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. “Keadilan jenayah mesti dilaksanakan secara saksama dan undang-undang mesti diterapkan sama rata. Orang ramai tahu ini tidak berlaku. “Najib ke penjara — tetapi mereka yang berada di peringkat tertinggi kerajaan Sabah, sekutu politik kerajaan Madani, yang dirakam dalam video menerima rasuah — masih bebas seperti burung,” katanya. “Dan (Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad) Zahid (Hamidi), sekutu utama PMX — yang tanpa sokongannya kerajaan Madani akan tumbang — kes rasuahnya digugurkan — begitu ...
