Well, there you have it. The ICJ has declared that the jurisdiction of Pedra Branca falls to Singapore by a 12-4 majority.
The other territory - Middle Rock and Southern Ledge - fall to Malaysia by a 15-1 majority.
A glum-looking RTM presentator says Malaysia has �kehilangan kedaulatan over Pulau Batu Puteh� - and then goes on to commend the Malaysian legal team for its efforts.
Making the best of the situation, Rais Yatim says it is a �win-win outcome�. He adds that the fate of Southern Ledge is still to be determined based on various technical aspects.
Perhaps now we can focus on eradicating injustices and poverty within Malaysia? _________________ Before you criticize someone, make sure you walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do criticize, you're a mile away and you HAVE THEIR SHOES. |

they do nothing in the beginning.
