Whatever happened to helicopter ‘nasi ganja’ case, EAIC asks
In July last year, a helicopter landed at the Ipoh padang to pick up 36 packs of ‘nasi ganja’.
PUTRAJAYA: The Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) has reminded authorities to quickly resolve “easy cases” or risk seeing their credibility being eroded.
The commission’s chairman, Sidek Hassan, cited the sensational case of a helicopter being used to pick up a 36-pack order of “nasi ganja” in Ipoh in July last year.
“Cases like that should be resolved easily. But there seems to be ongoing cases with no end in sight. And this will erode the enforcement agency’s credibility and that of the government’s.”
He said that there was a need for closure for every investigation that was conducted.
The authorities would get off to an “impressive” start when initiating a probe but yet no conclusion was reached, giving the impression that the case had been closed.
“Case closed is not the same as closure,” he said at an EAIC appreciation event here this evening.
The helicopter had landed in Ipoh in July reportedly to pick up 36 packs of the city’s famous, addictive nasi kandar, dubbed “nasi ganja”, which had been ordered by customers in Kuala Lumpur.
The nasi ganja stall owner told FMT that the order was placed by a Datuk, and picked up by a man wearing a face mask, hat and sunglasses.
Perak police chief Mior Faridalathrash Wahid had confirmed the incident then and said investigations would be conducted against those involved for violating a Covid-19 prohibition on interstate travel.
A month later, he said the investigation papers had been sent to the Attorney-General’s Chambers for further action.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia had also investigated the incident for any civil aviation breaches. The Bell 505 helicopter was operated by Systematic Aviation Services Sdn. Bhd, a company based at Subang airport which provides aircraft maintenance services.
On a separate matter, Sidek said that the EAIC received 6,099 complaints about the various enforcement agencies since it was set up 10 years ago and had resolved 5,097 complaints.

There has been a lot of changes since the days of old. Now we see laws being applied to different 'classes' of people! We have just ordinary people, then people in politics(like the guy who died in the Macc building), important people with money (IP), very important people (VIP), very very important people (VVIP), Ministers and finally Prime Minister (whether EX or Present). So before you want to commit an act that is wrong, you must first categorise which 'class' you are in. Hope I have answered correctly!
