Palace of Justice

Thursday, October 4, 2007

I felt like i was in some middle eastern country when i stepped out of the bus yesterday.. N its not solely coz of the bends n curves of the building, but also the scarce land which is so wide and the extremely hot wheater.. But i was onli in putrajaya.. Haha..

So, our principles of law class had this trip to the palace of justice yesterday.. Woke up around 745 n im edi running late.. We'r supposed to meet at the Hammerhead at 830.. So i had to take the 815 bus..

Good thing its limkokwing though, coz i reached there around 840 n i dun c any bus anywhere near the hammerhead.. N i thought i missed it.. Like i said, good this it was limkokwing.. I went in n i saw the whole bunch of them in front of ten-10.. Miss Nazruzila nowhere in sight..

So, we ended up leaving around 920 i think.. Reached the court house around 950 close to 10 i guess, never reli looked at the time coz i was too facinated with the view.. haha..

So, we were first taken to 1 of the hearing rooms (watever u call it..) and surprisingly, we were allowed to sit at the places the VIPs sit.. Its something like a conference room.. Dunno how to explain.. But the chair i sat on was like the most comfortable chair i ever sat on in my life, hands down!!! Haha.. XD

So, we were shown a 15 minute clip on the judiciary system in Malaysia with the different hierarchy of courts.. All gone through by our lecturer edi, but somehow at that point, it seems so interesting.. Haha..

After tat, we were taken to the judges library ( is tat wat u call perpustakaan kehakiman? XD) n i duno how i ended up reading this annual journal n i came across a case where HSBC filled a suit against my dad's ex company.. haha.. Luckily it wasnt my dad's current company..

We were then taken to the small museum where they display everything tat's directly or indirectly involved with the perkembangan of law system in our country.. There was even a small section where they display the arrangement of a high court during the early times of our country, complete with wax figures and all..

2 of my course mates fooling around with the wax figures.. Haha..

Unfortunately, they didnt allow us to take any pictures of the courts inside.. The courts looked real good.. Whole room was sound-proof.. Literally everything cud be heard.. We were kinda lucky also, coz we got to witness a real case being heard in the federal court.. It was abt an insurance company trying to defend itself from refusing to pay a client.. Dang, the judges were reli reli RELI sarcastic.. Kesian the lawyer.. Dah lah everytime she open her mouth she need to address them as My Lords, Yang Arif, they still tembak her like nobody's business.. Ish ish..

We had to follow all the protocols while we were in court.. When the judges walked in, we had to rise, when they took their sit, we had to bow, and before we leave we had to stand in the middle n bow before leaving.. Everything u do had to be in order.. It was kinda fun actually.. Haha.. Too bad we couldnt take any pictures inside.. We were forced to switch off our handsets even before entering..

So basically, tats it.. After hearing the case, it was time for us to head home.. Gathered for a group photo, shook hands with out tour guide and we boarded the bus..

Oh yah, i got a haircut last weekend.. Cant see anymore colours on my hair.. Its back to black now.. and its extremely short.. Together with my newly bought SEED shirt, wat do u think? Leave me comments.. :D

Each and every one of us has our dirty little secret,

Something in our life we're not proud of...
