The current Chief Justice of Malaysia, Tun Ahmad Fairuz bin Dato' Sheikh Abdul Halim, who was implicated in a secretly taped phone conversation involving prominent lawyer VK Lingam has applied for a six month extension after his compulsory retirement in Nov 1, 2007. There are rumours that the Yang di-Peruan Agong has refused to sign the Chief Justice's extension, but now news are filtering out that his term will be extended by 2 months.
The Malaysia Bar Council has made an online poll Should the term of the current Chief Justice which expires on Oct 31 be extended to a period of not more than 6 months? and has allowed the public to cast their vote.
Why don't you let your opinion be known, surf over there and cast your vote? You do not have to reveal your identity.
