Lepas tumpang kebas suami


BANTING: “Saya kutip dia (wanita Indonesia) dari jalanan dan ajak dia tinggal bersama saya, sudahnya suami saya pula dia rampas,” rintih seorang isteri yang kini hidup terumbang-ambing selepas ditinggalkan suami yang menjalin hubungan dengan wanita terbabit.

Isteri berusia 45 tahun yang hanya mahu dikenali sebagai Ros itu berkata, hubungan suaminya dengan wanita Indonesia dikenali sebagai Yati, 30, itu benar apabila mereka ditahan pihak berkuasa agama, Mac lalu.


“Kira-kira jam 1.20 pagi Mac lalu, saya ternampak motosikal suami di tingkat bawah sebuah flat tidak jauh dari rumah saya. Yakin suami bersama wanita Indonesia itu, saya menghubungi pejabat agama berdekatan.

“Bersama dengan pegawai pejabat agama, kami menyerbu rumah Yati, namun mereka terlepas daripada tindakan kerana mengemukakan bukti sudah berkahwin, cuma Yati didapati tiada sebarang dokumen perjalanan sah,” katanya. Mengulas lanjut mengenai Yati, Ros berkata wanita itu sebelum ini bekerja di sebuah kedai makan tidak jauh dari rumahnya.


“Saya masih ingat, kira-kira jam 10 malam kira-kira dua tahun lalu, saya nampak seorang perempuan berjalan seorang diri di hadapan rumah saya sambil menangis.


“Selepas mendekatinya, Yati memberitahu dia dihalau isteri majikannya yang menuduh dia mahu mengurat suaminya. Kasihankan dia, saya ajak dia tinggal bersama.

“Sejak peristiwa itu, selama lebih setahun Yati menumpang di rumah saya iaitu sehingga Ogos tahun lalu,” kata Ros yang tidak mempunyai anak biarpun selepas 22 tahun berkahwin dengan suaminya yang dikenali sebagai Malek, 55.


Ros berkata, selama Yati tinggal bersamanya, dia sedikitpun tidak curiga terhadap Yati dan tidak menduga wanita itu menjalin hubungan dengan suaminya.

“Bukan saja dia rampas suami saya, malah saya juga disihirnya kerana awal tahun ini saya diserang penyakit misteri hingga separuh lumpuh hampir enam bulan sehingga tidak mampu melakukan sebarang kerja,” katanya. Ros berkata, dia kini hidup kesusahan dan terpaksa bekerja sebagai buruh kasar untuk menyara hidup selepas suaminya langsung tidak memberi nafkah selepas meninggalkannya sejak Ogos tahun lalu.

Breivik puji Jepun, Korea

ORANG ramai memegang bunga dan tanda cinta ‘Utoeya’ dan ‘Oslove’ ketika menyertai acara perhimpunan mengingati 76 mangsa pembunuhan Breivik di Oslo, semalam.


TOKYO: Lelaki yang mengaku membunuh 76 orang dalam serangan di Oslo, Norway Jumaat lalu menyifatkan Jepun sebagai negara model dalam dokumen yang diedarkannya di Internet.

Dia memuji negara matahari terbit itu kerana menjauhi dasar pelbagai budaya. lapor agensi berita rasmi Jepun, Kyodo.


Dalam manifesto setebal 1,500 muka yang diedarkan secara online sejurus sebelum melakukan pembunuhan beramai-ramai itu, Anders Behring Breivik berkata, dia melantik dirinya untuk misi menyelamatkan Eropah yang didakwanya berdepan dengan ancaman Islam, migrasi dan dasar pelbagai budaya.

Menurut Kyodo, dalam dokumen itu, Breivik juga memuji Jepun kerana tidak membenarkan ramai orang Islam berhijrah ke negara itu meskipun ia tidak tidak mengenakan sekatan khusus terhadap kumpulan etnik atau agama untuk berbuat demikian.


Penghijrahan adalah isu sensitif di Jepun. Sebahagian besar rakyatnya bimbang penghijrahan ramai warga asing akan menyebabkan kadar jenayah meningkat dan pada masa sama, menjejaskan perpaduan sosial.


Bagaimanapun, pakar berkata, populasi negara itu yang semakin berkurangan dan tua, akan memaksa Jepun bersifat lebih terbuka dalam menerima penghijrahan orang asing.

Anggota Parlimen beberapa parti utama menggesa langkah diambil untuk membuka pintu secara lebih luas tetapi tidak bertindak bersungguh-sungguh kerana bimbang mencetuskan kemarahan pengundi.


Penduduk warga asing mewakili 1.7 peratus populasi Jepun dengan kaum Cina menjadi kumpulan terbesar diikuti oleh etnik Korea yang sebahagian besarnya dipaksa pergi ke Jepun sebelum penjajahannya terhadap semenanjung Korea berakhir pada 1945.

Breivik juga menyuarakan hasrat untuk menemui bekas Perdana Menteri Jepun, Taro Aso, konservatif berhaluan kanan yang dipetik oleh Kyodo dan media lain sebagai memuji Jepun kerana mempunyai ‘satu bangsa, satu peradaban, satu bahasa, satu budaya dan satu kaum’ ketika menjadi menteri Kabinet pada 2005.


Breivik, 32, juga memuji Korea Selatan kerana kadar rendah penduduk asing, lapor Kyodo.


Breivik mengaku meletupkan bom kereta di luar pejabat Perdana Menteri, Jens Stoltenberg di Oslo yang meragut lapan nyawa sebelum berlepas ke Pulau Utoeya dan menembak mati 68 remaja yang menyertai satu perkhemahan anjuran parti kerajaan. -Reuters

Belum setaraf Mourinho


KETIKA Chelsea tiba di Hong Kong kelmarin, Petr Cech mendakwa pengurus kelab sebelum ini dipecat kerana gagal mencapai tahap Jose Mourinho.

Bayangan ‘The Special One’ itu masih menghantui dan Cech menganggap Mourinho sebagai penanda aras bagi Chelsea dan

sehingga pencapaian itu diulangi, sesiapa saja yang menggalas tugasnya perlu bergelut untuk mengekalkan jawatan itu untuk jangka panjang.

“Setiap pengurus mempu�nyai falsafah masing-masing dan kadang-kala ia menjadi, ada kalanya menjadi sebalik�nya,” kata penjaga gol itu yang memasuki musim kelapan, dengan tujuh pengurus berbeza termasuk Andre Villas-Boas.


“Sudah pasti, Jose Mourinho meletakkan standard dan sudah pasti yang lain cuba untuk menandinginya,” katanya.

Selepas Mourinho, Chelsea dikendalikan Avram Grant, Luiz Felipe Scolari, Guus Hiddink sebagai pemangku dan dua tahun bersama Carlo Ancelotti, penilaian Cech dilihat agak kasar terhadap jurulatih Itali yang berjaya membawa dua gelaran sebelum Villas-Boas.

Kegagalan merebut sebarang trofi musim lalu, bermakna Ancelotti terpaksa disingkirkan dan Cech bersetuju dengan keadaan di dalam kem Chelsea di mana bekas pengurus itu gagal memperbaiki keadaan secepat mungkin apabila kempen menjadi begitu sukar musim lalu.

“Anda terpaksa menukar pengurus apabila anda melihat tiada jalan lain,” kata Cech.

“Saya fikir itulah falsafah kelab dan berharap ada jalan buat Andre menyambung tugasnya untuk beberapa tahun akan datang.

“Tujuh pengurus sudah dilantik sebagai pengurus Chelsea sejak saya menyertai kelab ini dan malangnya, selain Jose yang berada di sini selama tiga setengah tahun, tiada siapa yang mampu bertahan lama.

“Anda akan lihat, jika kami mempunyai musim yang bagus, kita akan membina asas yang kukuh untuk pengurus kekal di sini untuk beberapa tahun lagi,” katanya.

Bagaimanapun, baik Cech mahupun Villas-Boas sedar kejayaan itu perlu hadir secepat mungkin.

“Kadangkala anda boleh katakan ia satu musim yang baik dan anda menamatkan musim tanpa sebarang trofi tetapi sukar untuk membayangkan berkata sedemikian dalam kelab ini,” kata Cech.

Mourinho sendiri pun masih belum menjuarai Liga Juara-Juara dan perkara itu masih menjadi sasaran utamanya.

Cech kini berusia 29 tahun dan menggantikan Carlo Cudicini sebagai penjaga gol utama Chelsea di bawah kendalian Mourinho pada awal musim 2004 dan biarpun pemain antarabangsa Republik Czech dibeli pada harga �7 juta (RM33.9 juta) dari kelab Perancis, Rennes, ketika di bawah kendalian Claudio Ranieri tetapi tidak berpeluang beraksi di bawah pengurus Itali itu.

Villas-Boas tiba pada masa sama iaitu Julai tahun ini, sebagai kakitangan sokongan Mourinho yang bertindak meninjau skuad lawan dan kelab itu menjuarai Liga Perdana Inggeris dan Piala Liga pada musim pertama.

“Sejak Andre berada di sini (sebelum ini) bekerja bersama Jose banyak perkara yang berubah,” kata Cech.

“Kelab ini sudah berubah. Beliau sudah berubah. Daripada seorang yang bertugas di bahagian teknikal kepada pengurus dan saya fikir setakat ini segala-galanya berjalan lancar dan saya harap ia dapat diteruskan,” katanya.

Pandangan Cech boleh diterima. Bersama-sama John Terry, Frank Lampard dan Didier Drogba, dia diang�gap sebagai empat pemain utama dari segi karektor dan pandangan dalam skuad Chelsea.

Pandangannya mendapat perhatian ramai dan ia termasuk Roman Abramovich, yang pada ketikanya turut menerima pandangannya.

Cech adalah sebahagian daripada skuad yang me�nyertai jelajah pra musim di Asia yang sebelum ini bertandang di Malaysia dan Thailand sebelum tiba di Hong Kong di mana mereka akan bertanding dengan Aston Villa, Blackburn Rovers dan pasukan tempatan Kitchee untuk Trofi Liga Perdana Asia.

Kemenangan tipis 1-0 ke atas Malaysia diikuti 4-0 ke atas Pasukan Pilihan Thailand di mana Cech diturunkan buat pertama kali, menyifatkan Chelsea tidak cukup menyakinkan.

Kepincangan pemain baru agak membimbang�kan segelintir pihak dan wujud perubahan formasi 4-3-3 yang diterapkan Mourinho yang cuba diikuti pemain lain kepada gaya yang lebih menyerang. Ia gaya yang cukup diskuai Villas-Boas.

“Dia mempunyai idea sendiri bagaimana kami harus bermain,”

kata Cech. “Kami mempunyai per�tahanan yangh mantap dan setakat ini kami tidak bolos sebarang gol dalam perlawanan pra musim dan ini satu petanda yang bagus.

Apabila anda bekerja keras, tentunya menyeronokkan jika menang perlawanan tanpa bolos dan ia memberikan keyakinan,” katanya.

Alexis Sanchez unveiled by Barcelona... a few pics

Chile forward Alexis Sanchez says he has come to Barcelona 'to learn from the best.'

Barcelona's first major transfer of the close season signed a five-year contract with the Spanish champions after passing a medical on Monday.

The 22-year-old says he wants to help Barca 'do what it has been doing: win titles.'

Sanchez recognizes it will be difficult to crack into the starting 11, saying, 'we all have to learn from Messi and Xavi.'

Last week Barcelona agreed a 37.5million euro deal with Udinese for the Chilean.


I'm going nowhere! Nani warns Young and Valencia he'll fight for future at United

Nani has claimed he will be inspired by the intense battle for first-team spots at Manchester United this season.

The arrival of Ashley Young from Aston Villa has provided immediate competition for the winger, who with Antonio Valencia sidelined for most of last term, was the only orthodox wide-man at Sir Alex Ferguson's disposal.

Danny Welbeck has operated on the flanks and is now available after a successful loan spell at Sunderland, whilst Mame Biram Diouf was picked there for the first half of the 3-1 win over Chicago Fire.

However, Nani, who scored the visitors' final goal at Soldier Field, is adamant he does not intend to take a backward step.

'The competition is good,' he said. 'It inspires you. If you have competition, you will train harder and push yourself in every game. At Manchester United, you have to be ready every time you go on the field.'

The 24-year-old contributed nine goals and 18 assists - the highest in the league - to United's record 19th championship triumph. Yet it still was not enough to earn him a starting spot for the Champions League final defeat to Barcelona in May.

It must have come as a bitter blow to a player who started the campaign so well, but tailed off just as Valencia was recovering from the broken ankle he sustained in September.


In the aftermath of that loss, and with Ferguson looking at how best to strengthen a team that was so badly outplayed at Wembley, there were plenty happy to write off Nani's Red Devils career completely.

But he returned for the current five-match tour of the United States, and appears in the right frame of mind to provide an even greater contribution this time around.

'Of course I can get better,' he said. 'That is what I am trying to do. It is not easy but it is what I look to achieve every year. If I can get more goals and more assists, that will be good for the team and help us in all the competitions we are going for.'

Nani believes improvement will be required too. For, whilst United proved good enough to finish top of the pile last season, with Manchester City trying to get stronger and Liverpool expected to challenge along with Arsenal and last year's runners-up Chelsea, Nani is anticipating an even fiercer battle for supremacy.


'In every season it is important to start well,' he said. 'But it is even more the case now because this season will be much harder than the last couple. All the teams are getting stronger and trying to be much better. We have to match that.'

Although Saturday's first-half showing was the least convincing of United's performances so far, Sir Alex Ferguson was reasonably satisfied. Goalkeeper David de Gea and former Blackburn defender Phil Jones made decent debuts.

Sir Alex Ferguson retracted an initial thought that De Gea was responsible for Chicago Fire's early opener and by the time he has bulked up, which United's medical staff insist will happen over time, he should be a positive influence.

The same is already true of Javier Hernandez, who is expected to join United on the next leg of their journey, to New York, where they will face an MLS All-Stars side containing David Beckham and Thierry Henry at Red Bull Arena on Wednesday.


'It was tough for him last season but over time, Javier will mature and get better,' said Ferguson. 'He is improving technically and now he has had a good season behind him in a tough division.

'We are setting targets for him. We thought he would get 20 last season and he did. He might do even better this time.'

United complete their tour in Washington next Saturday when they square up to Barcelona in a rematch of that one-sided European final. With Lionel Messi missing, it hardly represents an opportunity for revenge.

It will be a guide though, with Nani convinced United have what it takes to get revenge in Munich next year, when the European Cup will be up for grabs again.

'We have to be ready for the challenge,' he said. 'Barcelona play fantastic football and are the best team in the world at present. But we have the conditions to be better in the future.'

Huff and puff! United striker Berbatov hits back at style critics

Dimitar Berbatov is desperate to prolong his Manchester United career but insists he will not change his much-maligned style on the pitch to prove it.

Berbatov, 30, enters the final year of his contract knowing this could be his last pre-season tour with United.

Manager Sir Alex Ferguson admitted last week he would not have blamed the Bulgarian striker for demanding to leave after he was axed for the Champions League final against Barcelona in May.


But Berbatov, a £30.75million signing from Tottenham three years ago, is determined to fight for his future, saying: ‘Manchester United is the top. Where can you go from there? Only down. Maybe Barcelona. At the moment, I don’t see anything else.

‘I come from a small country. I have the good fortune to play for Manchester United. Why would you
want to go anywhere else?’

Berbatov remains something of a contradiction. He bagged five goals in one game against Blackburn and a hat-trick against Liverpool to finish joint top scorer in the Barclays Premier League last season, yet he has not scored in Europe since 2008.

Brooding one minute and happy the next, Berbatov’s determination to succeed at United does not always sit comfortably with the languid, lazy-looking approach that so infuriates his club’s supporters.
In his opinion, it is a mark of class.

‘There is a saying in Bulgaria that great quality doesn’t require much effort,’ he said. ‘You’re not going to see me puffing around the pitch.

‘I always play like this. That is what got me here. Last season was proof that, even if you have some downs in your career, if you believe in your style of play, you can do it as well. I’m a proud person. I don’t like to show my weaknesses and emotions in public. That is why people probably sometimes misjudge me.’

Berbatov was so ‘ashamed’ to appear in public at Wembley after Ferguson left him out of the squad that he sat and cried in the Wembley dressing room. But the Bulgarian prefers to look forward rather than back.


‘I still have time. Of course it will drive me on. The good thing about football is that there is always next year. I will have new goals. I was pretty happy we did the historic thing about the 19th title. I was the top goalscorer. For me, the personal thing was great.’

Berbatov's status as a role model sits comfortably on his shoulders, even if he recoils from the thought he could be regarded as an icon, reserving that status for his own hero, Hristo Stoichkov.

'When I was young, I was looking to people like Stoichkov,' he said. 'I told myself one day I would like to be as successful as him. Dreams do come true sometimes.'

Although there was one cataclysmic low, Berbatov experienced some dream days last year too.

The first United player to score a hat-trick against Liverpool in 64 years, a tally that included a magnificent overhead kick, the first non-Englishman to score five in a Premier League game, the Golden Boot for his 20-goal haul.

'I didn't know scoring three goals against Liverpool would mean so much to so many people,' he reflected. Obviously three goals - and the second one was a bit special - it will stay in my memory for ever - and after that I scored five!

'What makes me really proud is that there have been so many foreigners playing in English football, I am the only one with five goals.


'But it is something I have to push to the back of my mind. Last season I had highs in my career. But what if we didn't win the title? Then these things wouldn't matter so much.'

Talking to Berbatov, it is clear that he does care, both about his team and his performance. It seems he wants to be liked, not in an arrogant way, but as an individual who tried to do things a little differently.

'As a good player, doing things the fans enjoyed,' he replied, when asked how he would like to be remembered. I always tend to think my goals are beautiful goals. That is what I want to score; beautiful goals, and create beautiful chances.'

How long will that attitude prevail at Old Trafford, where the challengers, all younger, are queuing up to oust him?

Berbatov does not answer. What he is prepared to concede is that once leaving United, the only way is down. 'Smaller clubs might be able to match Manchester United with the way they play, with their organisation, everything. But Manchester United are at the top,' he said.

'Where can you go from there? Maybe Barcelona. At the moment, I don't see anything else. If you go somewhere else it is a big step down.

'I come from a small country. I have the good fortune to play for Manchester United. For the time I am here I try to do my best and win everything there is to win. There is no other way I can play.'

United will sign one more player this summer, insists Gill

Manchester United expect to sign one more player before the end of the transfer window.

United are refusing to give up hope of bringing in Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder or Arsenal’s
Samir Nasri, and the club were on Tuesday linked with Palermo midfielder Javier Pastore — a Chelsea target — and Roma striker Mirko Vucinic

Top target: Manchester United are still hoping to sign £35m-rated midfielder Wesley Sneijder from Inter Milan

United fear Nasri is bound for neighbours Manchester City, and although chief executive David Gill held talks with Inter officials and Sneijder's representatives earlier this month, negotiations stalled over the Italian club's £35million valuation as well as the player's personal terms.

Gill said: 'We are looking at one more player to bring in. We've been looking at a particular position and two or three players in that position.'
