Report from The New Straits Times dated Wednesday 22 February 2006 :-

JOHOR BARU, Tues.
------------------
Foreign journalists tracking "Bigfoot" in the jungles of Johor have made a plaster cast of a fresh footprint measuring 60cm by 30cm.

Almost three times the size of a human foot, they feel the evidence indicates they are close to finding and filming the creature.

"This is very close to an actual sighting," said Joshua Gates, 28, who is part of a seven-member expedition to the jungles of Kota Tinggi.

Gates, who found the foot, is the host of Destination Truth, a new television programme to be shown over the Sci-Fi Network in the United States.

The Sci-Fi Network is an NBC Universal television network dedicated to programmes exploring the mysterious, paranormal, fantastic and unexplained.

Gates and his crew have been in Kota Tinggi since yesterday to shoot a documentary on the creature.

The group travelled deep into the jungle and found the footprints in Kampung Lukut after searching an area covering 30 sq km.

"One of the footprints, showing five toes, was especially well preserved in the mud. We made several plaster casts of it.

"This is most credible evidence to date that the Bigfoot might indeed be roaming the jungles of Johor," he said.

"We believe we are on the trail of something really big.

"The size of the footprint doesn’t match that of any primate or animal we have ever seen.

"This is bound to stir a great deal of interest in the US when the documentary is shown.

"It might prompt more researchers and journalists to come to Johor in search of Bigfoot."

‘Creature prefers cool spot’

Report from The New Straits Times dated Thursday 23 February 2006 :-

‘Creature prefers cool spot’

KOTA TINGGI, Feb 22:
---------------------
The search for the elusive Bigfoot continues to throw up bits and pieces of the jigsaw puzzle.

In the latest evidence of the creature’s presence at Kampung Lukut Cina in Panti, a local scientist has found two piles of tree branches and saplings which showed no sign of having been cut.

Bio-diversity researcher Vincent Chow said it appeared that something powerful had pulled them down from a height of about 3m besides uprooting the 3cm thick saplings.

Chow said it was interesting to note that the creature had chosen a cool and shady area for the pile.

The area is where a group comprising an American filming crew from Mandt Bros. Productions, members of Singapore Paranormal Investigators (SPI), filming crew from Makim Abad Sdn Bhd and the Southeast Asia correspondent for The Independent of London found fresh footprints on Monday.

One of the 60cm by 30cm footprints about 10cm deep was so clear the group managed to make plaster casts of it.

The find will be seen on Destination Truth, a television programme to be shown on NBC Universal’s Sci-Fi Network in the United States and NTV7’s Seekers series.

Jan McGirk, the correspondent for The Independent, reported seeing broken tree branches more than 3m above the spot where the deep footprint was found.

She said it appeared that the creature had grabbed the branches for support when it lost balance as its left heel sunk into a muddy puddle adding that a stick was also seen snapped beneath one of its toe depressions.

"Australian Tony Burke, who was with the SPI, estimated that to make such a print, an animal would have to weigh at least 240kg," she added.

Meanwhile, Chow said the cleared areas were less than 20 metres from the road leading to rubber and oil palm smallholdings at the hills of Panti.

"The clearing work seems to have been done by some intelligent being but for what purpose, we don’t know yet.

"We know of wild pigs making a nest to deliver their young but this is different and looks more like a resting place."

Chow said the only explanation was that the spot must have been a traditional rest stop for the creature which it instinctively returns to, despite the area now being encroached by human habitations.

"This find is important as at this stage of our Bigfoot search, we need to collect information on the habits of the creature.

"Based on the information we have accumulated so far, there is hope we will soon get a good chance to actually sight the creature and photograph it."

Experts to analyse Bigfoot’s footprint

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 22: A plaster cast of the "Bigfoot" footprint will be sent to the forensics department to be analysed by experts.

The footprint will be examined for the creature’s DNA.

It was discovered by a 16-member international team of paranormal researchers, bio-diversity experts and journalists at the Bukit Lintang rainforest.

"There were other footprints in the area, but most were washed away by the rainfall earlier in the day," said paranormal researcher Syed Abdullah Syed Hussein Al-Attas.

He was speaking to reporters at a Press conference at the headquarters of Seekers, a popular show on paranormal activities.

"To us, the prints seemed to show that the creature was walking stealthily in search of food.

"There were small broken branches as high as five metres from the ground," he said adding that the print measured 60cm by 30cm.

Joshua Gates, 28, who found the print, said ground conditions surrounding the footprint had helped preserve it.

"It was not covered in as much leaves as the other prints that we found. The soil was soft enough for the depression of the footprint to be very distinctive.

"We couldn’t make casts of the other prints as we did not bring enough plaster with us."

Gates, a documentary film-maker from USA, said the footprints led to a deeper and rougher section of the jungle.

"We could not follow the trail as it was getting dark, even though we were tempted to. We were actually about to leave the place when I spotted the broken branches and the footprint."

The team strongly feels that the creatures were beginning to emerge from the jungle because of the thinning vegetation and the intermittent rainfall which may have disturbed its habitat.

Syed Abdullah said the cast would be handed over to the Johor Government after it had been thoroughly analysed by the forensics team.

"We understand that this belongs to the Johor State Government, and we will hand it over as soon as the forensics team is done with it."

Other members of the team were allowed to make a copy of the cast.

Facelift for Muar waterfront

Report from The New Straits Times dated Thursday 23 February 2006 :-

Facelift for Muar waterfront

MUAR, one of Johor's oldest towns, will get a major facelift with the launch of a RM68 million development project in the centre of the town.

Called Maharani Ayu, the project is coming up on 12ha of waterfront land along the Muar River.

Developed by Pulai Springs Resort Bhd (PSRB), it is scheduled for completion by 2008.

This is the company's first foray into Muar, after its successful Pulai Springs golf resort in Johor Baru.

Maharani Ayu, a mixed development project featuring residential and commercial units, will be the first major real estate development in Muar, which is often referred to as the "Pensioners' Town".

A stone's throw from the second Muar bridge and the newly-opened Muar outer ring road, the development is also the first to offer guarded and garden community living in the district.

PSRB general manager for property development Teo Thian Eng said the project would also include 1.7ha of landscaped gardens and a jetty.

He said the residential component of the project will comprise 152 cluster homes, 20 bungalows and 14 semi-detached houses. Also coming up are 37 shophouse units.

"Already, 40 units of houses and shophouses have been snapped up since the sales launch in September last year," he said.

The cluster homes are selling from RM220,000 onwards while the semi-detached units are pegged at RM330,000 and above.

Gunung Panti 'bigfoot' could be swamp dweller, says expert

Report from The New Straits Times dated Thursday 23 February 2006 :-

Gunung Panti 'bigfoot' could be swamp dweller, says expert

JOHOR BARU, Thurs:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE shape of the giant footprints believed to be that of the Johor Bigfoot discovered near Gunung Panti over the past week shos that that the creature could be a swamp dweller.

The splayed toes as compared to joined toes of the Sasquatch (Bigfoot) of America could imply that the Johor Bigfoot had evolved separately to adapt to the wet and muddy conditions of swamps and river banks of Malaysia.

Universiti Putra Malaysia's Animal Science Department head Dr Azhar Kasim said the creature, obviously being bulky and heavy, required a large and widely spread foot to move about in the soft ground of the Malaysian rainforest.

He was asked to comment on the plaster cast of a large footprint believed to be that of the Johor Bigfoot that was found by a team of local and foreign media and researchers at the Panti foothills on Monday.

Dr Azhar said the foot formation of the gigantic creature which was seen to be basically a land dweller, was consistent with the areas where the footprints were found, at river banks and muddy spots.

Commenting on yesterday's find of mysterious clearings in the secondary forest area close to where the Bigfoot footprints were, Dr Azhar said it was common animal behaviour to keep its nesting area open and clear.

"This will enable the animal to easily escape when faced with any threats. However in this case there is no nest in the area."

Dr Azhar said another logical explanation could be that the area served as a courtship space for mating couples.

Figurine in bottle attracts visitors

Report from The New Straits Times dated Friday 24 February 2006 :-

Figurine in bottle attracts visitors


PEKAN, Feb 23:
---------------
Many curious visitors flocked to the Sultan Abu Bakar Museum today to look at a bottle with a small human-shaped figurine inside.

The bottle was found on the beach near Kuala Pahang yesterday evening and has been temporarily placed at the museum.

What sparked the interest were claims by locals that the figurine was probably a toyol (an evil spirit known in Malay folklore to serve its human master by stealing from others).

Some of the visitors waited at the museum entrance before it was opened at 8am.

Businessman Shaik Alaudin Mohd Ismail, 43, who came from Kuantan this morning after being informed about the object by a friend last night, said he just had to see what it was.

The museum, which normally received less than 100 visitors on weekends, was packed today.

There were at least 600 people vying to have a closer look at the figurine at any one time.

Nurul Hidayah Mohd Shahidani, 21, of Alor Akar, Kuantan, who came with her mother, said she was not sure whether there was anything special about the figurine after viewing it.

"We got to know about it after my grandfather, who lives here, called us last night saying that someone had found a toyol inside a bottle."

The figurine, which is slightly smaller than an adult’s fist, has its torso wrapped in black cloth tied with string and its eyes painted red.

Museum director Ahmad Farid Abdul Jalal said a group of fishermen found the figurine and handed it to the museum for safekeeping last night.

However, he said the figurine would be "returned" to the sea after a consultation with several local bomohs this afternoon.

"They claimed that the figurine was not a toyol but an object used in black magic which was probably thrown into the sea in a spiritual healing ritual."

Ahmad Farid added that the figurine was most likely washed ashore.

Toyol drawing them in

Report from The STAR dated Friday 24 February 2006 :-

Toyol drawing them in

PEKAN: Is the toyol – long regarded as a mythical supernatural creature – for real?

Hundreds of visitors who thronged the state museum here think so as they scrutinised a figurine kept in a bottle that was on display there.

A curious fisherman had found the bottle on Tuesday on the shores of a coastal village, believing that what he saw in it was a toyol.

In Malay folklore, a toyol is a goblin-like creature that steals money and commits other mischief or evil at the instruction of its guardian.

Not wanting to have anything to do with it, the unidentified fisherman from Kampung Kuala Pahang rushed to nearby Kampung Siong, about a kilometre away, and passed it to a bomoh.

The bomoh, in turn, handed it to the state museum.

Word of its discovery spread like wildfire and hundreds of people waited at the doorstep of the museum before it opened at 8am, eager for a chance to see the strange item.

They came in buses, cars, and bicycles and on foot.

Museum director Mohd Farid Abdul Jalal said the large number of people who had come to see the figurine surprised him.

He said it looked like a puppet or marionette and was about 20cm tall. The figurine, kept in a wide-mouthed bottle, is cloaked in black and has red eyes and mouth.

“The bottle also contains some sand, a yellow string and slices of onions,” he said.

“We believe it was used in some kind of spiritual rite or medication and thrown by someone into the sea several days before the waves washed it ashore.”

He said the object would be displayed in the museum until he discusses with his officers on the next course of action.

Abdul Latiff has big plans for Johor Baru

Report from The STAR dated Friday 24 February 2006 :-

Abdul Latiff has big plans for Johor Baru

JOHOR BARU: Newly-appointed Johor Baru City Council Mayor Datuk Abdul Latiff Yusof ’s main aim is to make the city the first choice destination for locals and foreigners.

To achieve this, Abdul Latiff said people would have to be given a sense of security, andpublic amenities must be provided.

“MBJB plays a role in ensuring that there is continuous economic growth to create confidence in investors to make Johor their first choice when it comes to investment, work and for settling down,” he said after he had been sworn in as the city’s fourth mayor here yesterday.

Abdul Latiff was the Muar district officer before taking up this post, and had previously held the post of secretary in the council.

He had also held other government posts, including in the state economic planning unit and in the Mentri Besar’s office.

“I know this is a heavy responsibility but I take it as a challenge to fulfil the state government’s wishes and its faith in me,” he said.

He said Johor was where visitors would form their first impression when they entered from the south.

Abdul Latiff is married to Datin Safiah Aris, 52, and they have four children.

Johor Baru mayor stumbles while inspecting drain

Report from The STAR dated Friday 24 February 2006 :-

Johor Baru mayor stumbles while inspecting drain

JOHOR BARU: The city’s new mayor Datuk Abdul Latiff Yusof experienced first-hand how dangerous some of Johor Baru’s public amenities can be if poorly maintained.

He slipped and fell while inspecting a drain at Jalan Serampang in Taman Pelangi here yesterday.

However, he took it all in his stride and laughed off the matter.

“It’s nothing ... just part of the job,” he said, adding that this was one of the first things he planned to address.

He also intends to mend potholes, and to keep the city’s streets, homes and rivers clean.

The new mayor was sworn in on Wednesday and was on his first field visit to check out the city infamous potholes and cleanliness.

Abdul Latiff, 52, who said he would adopt a “back to basics” approach to mend the city, felt that the most effective way was to ensure that all public amenities were completed on time and properly maintained.

For the pothole problems, he said the Johor Baru City Council had allotted RM10mil to maintain and upgrade the roads. Last month, the council spent RM1.2mil on repairs and road improvement works.

He said many factors contributed to damaged roads, including rain, bad patch-up jobs and weighty vehicles like lorries.

Asked about Panjang, the city’s “pothole hero” who had used his bare hands to patch up potholes with concrete, Abdul Latiff said: “We appreciate his concern for the public but this is not the correct way because he is endangering himself.

“Hopefully in future, when he sees any potholes, he will call the council.”

On cleanliness, Abdul Latiff said the council spent RM3mil a year to maintain some 22 rivers passing through the city, and added that there were currently two rubbish traps at Sungai Sengkuang and Sungai Segget.

Abdul Latiff said the Sungai Segget trap “produced” some five tonnes of domestic waste each day, and warned households without a rubbish bin or an unsuitable one that they could be fined up to RM250.

“I always have a camera in hand so that when I move around, I can take a photo of whatever I feel needs to be repaired,” he said.

D'Piazza Mall to spice up Penang property scene

Report from The New Straits Times dated Saturday 25 February 2006 :-

D'Piazza Mall to spice up Penang property scene

PENANG island's property market continues to sizzle with a RM250 million mall to be built in Bayan Baru.

Privately-held developer X-Scan Penang Sdn Bhd is launching what is believed to be the largest food and beverage and lifestyle mall in the state.

Construction of the ' D'Piazza Mall ' in the Bayan Baru town centre is set to take off by the middle of this year, the project's marketing agent, Henry Butcher Malaysia (Seberang Perai) Sdn Bhd, said yesterday.

Touting the project as the state's first specialist mall dealing in food and lifestyle, Henry Butcher Seberang Perai's director Ooi Gim Chor said the project will serve the Bayan Baru population and those working for multinationals in the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone.

"We want to create a lifestyle for the Bayan Baru people who now total 200,000, along with the expatriates and others working in the industrial zone," he told a media briefing at the company's office in Penang.

Targeted branded operators for the mall, Ooi said, included fast food and fine dining operators, luxury car dealers and technology providers.

"We are also approaching several international brands such as an American popular steakhouse, a celebrity entertainment outlet and a 24-hour breakfast/lunch and dinner restaurant," he added.

D'Piazza, which will be sited on a 6.4ha, will offer 90 three-storey shop lots priced from RM860,000 to RM2 million.

Ooi said the developer is offering investors of the project a leaseback option for five years, for a guaranteed return of 7 per cent of the purchase price.

"This option is to ensure the overwhelming success of D'Piazza so that the landlord is able to design the best tenant mix which will come from a targeted pool of 500 of the best brands fast food, restaurants, banks, fashionable goods and 20 others to serve the 650,000 residents of Penang island," Ooi said.

Rope in foreign experts to track Bigfoot

Report from The New Straits Times dated Saturday 25 February 2006 :-

Rope in foreign experts to track Bigfoot

KOTA TINGGI, Feb 24:
---------------------
Foreign experts should be invited to help in the search for the Johor Bigfoot.

Foreign Affairs Minister and Kota Tinggi MP Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said this was necessary as the search had attracted international attention.

Speaking after opening an award ceremony for teachers here, he said reported sightings of the hairy creature had benefited the district, especially in attracting foreign visitors.

Syed Hamid added he was inclined to believe in the existence of the Bigfoot, as there had been many sightings of the creature.

Meanwhile, zoologist Amlir Ayat said it would also help if a common name was used for the Bigfoot.

He felt it would be a good idea to adopt the name "Orang Dalam" used by the Orang Asli, like the name Sasquatch for the American Bigfoot, which originated from the Red Indians. Amlir said there was also a need to clear the confusion among villagers of mawas or orang utan and the Johor Bigfoot.

According to the book Natural History of Primates, mawas is used in the Southeast Asian region to refer to the orang utan (Pongo pygmaeus) which can grow to a height of 1.8m.

Villagers in Kampung Mawai Lama in Kota Tinggi said they were familiar with mawas and were sure it was not the same as Bigfoot.

"The mawas’ feet are not as big as the footprints that have been discovered so far. I have seen the giant footprints myself and am certain it was not made by mawas," said fisherman Islah Midi, 62.

His nephew, Ariffin Ali, 38, said he had seen a footprint of the Bigfoot measuring more than 60cm in the jungles of Endau while searching for timber a few years ago.

He said he was positive the footprint was not that of a mawas.

Police bust wild party, detain 15 youths

Report from The New Straits Times dated Monday 27 February 2006 :-

Police bust wild party, detain 15 youths

KUALA LUMPUR, Sun.
---------------------
Police cut short a wild party in an apartment in Jalan P. Ramlee early today and detained 15 youths after they tested positive for drugs.

A team from the Dang Wangi police inspected the unit at 2am following complaints of loud music blaring from the premises.

There, they found 78 people — 48 males and 30 females aged in their 20s — drunk and dancing wildly.

Liquor bottles and beer cans were strewn all over the place, while Ecstasy pills were found in the toilet.

Dang Wangi police chief Assistant Commissioner Kamal Pasha Jamal said the youths were taken to the Dang Wangi police headquarters for urine tests.

"Fifteen of them, including six females, tested positive for drugs," he said.

Kamal Pasha said the party started out as a birthday celebration and could have descended into a wild sex fest had police not broken it up.
