OPEN APPEAL
- Anglican Diocese of Sabah (ADOS) and BISHOPGATE constitutionally
Set up ANGLICAN INDEPENDENT INQUIRY COMMITTEE
within 5 days.
If this
article does not give you a SHOCK, the men reas of your mind must be of criminal
dimension.
I do not go
for fantasies as some people in high positions and some professionals do as we
witness in ADOS and beyond as they unfold since BISHOPGATE is exposed.
Such
departures from the norms of if ever there is a standard operating practice
(SOP) in ADOS.
Maybe each
property deal goes through different SOP as we have witnessed in the Provincial
Advisory Committee (PAC) reports so far exposed in the truth blog. Actually PAC was supposed to be the
investigations of the wrong doings of AVCF (bishop) if not of the alleged
embezzlement of God’s money as claimed by AVCF in his prerogative power that he
could use or abuse the God’s money in his fancy in his many deliveries in
pulpit and the official media channels.
So we see
the common vein in most properties as abused in departed proper procedures or
SOP.
My very
costly research as I go through his mud – legal or otherwise has taught me
slightly more knowledge and I want to share it here FOC as this cannot go on in
ADOS and beyond.
Instead of
just talking, I put this in writing to enlighten others in these very important
matters and the discrepancies thereof especially in the purchase of the church
premises of an industrial shop in Tenom.
If any one do
not like what I write so far, please stop here.
One thing I
can tell you if a bishop is bent in irregularities to achieve some hidden
agenda to enrich himself, his family or families, or cronies or gang, then
everything would go wrong with ADOS but such a bishop would blame others like the
Synod (ADOS assembly), the Standing
Committee, other committees or other people in his close circle when actually
he himself is the root of all evils preaching one thing and doing another to
please his lying ego as possibly the greatest LIAR in the religious ministerial
communities.
So this writing
as I go on is to educate members of ADOS that the Anglican church lacks check
and balance in the Constitutions or otherwise and much need to be done to
upgrade them objectively.
The
Constitutions have given too much credit to the Bishop when such a person lacks
in so many aspects namely emotional,
mental, physical and spiritual. Even a
very sick ? patient (bishop) can work full time?. Don’t expect the bishops to
know every thing like some would say “lawyer buruk”.
So like it
or not, there is a general consensus as we go through the mud of AVCF in ADOS
and beyond that there is a need for a separation of power in terms of spiritual
and secular matters of the Anglican Church and more so when the church has
grown over the century in Sabah. So that is the way forward for ADOS or we do
away with ADOS and decentralize the system as we have now giving too much power
or irresponsible/oppressive power to be abused by one man.
A classic
case of Tenom shophouse in its departure
from SOP has given out concern as the whole deal smells a rat. Is it the first time that the Sale &
Purchase done by a local firm and a non Christian one as that? But it has one bright spark when the owner is
Bishop of Sabah (registered trustee) as per S&P document. Being a new fresh head, the lawyer followed
the legal name in the Instrument of incorporation of sole trustee. Our legal professionals in ADOS have been too comfortable in the way
things done in the name of God or face God for wrongs- have
been negligent that most titles of the landed properties and other assets are
registered in other terms of the socalled owner. Don’t assume that once it is done in the name
of God, everything is alright when we were told by the honourable Court that
House of Bishops (HoBS) of the Anglican Province of churches in South East Asia
(APSEA) is a non legal identity.
Lawyers,
please take note that this is properly done.
Socalled learned Ronny who earned the ‘ wrath’ of the judge in my case
against AVCF or his positive deliverance that Ronny earned the MORAL victory in
defending AVCF. Now Ronny may have
earned another “moral victory” when he
sought another Judge to declare HOBs of APSEA as non legal entity. So do we learn from the two cases? Ronny or the Defendant AVCF had insisted that
all properties and assets of ADOS in one of the Affidavits in my case that the
proper owner is BISHOP OF SABAH (REGISTERED OWNER). But AVCF did not do the right thing in all
legal documents. So I want an
independent committee of ADOS to scrutinize all legal documents that the
correct owner is on them, failing which it is an illegal asset and nobody
actually owns them and problem may arise to transfer the assets concerned. ( I
am not to mention here of the ultra vires property deals overseas initially
registered in AVCF name) Also check all
documents of cars, vehicles likely registered in AVCF names and Diosis of Sabah
both illegal identities in the context of correct name, and that is BISHOP OF
SABAH (REGISTERED TRUSTEE). I think a
few parties are at fault including AVCF (who sign all legal documents
ignorantly or blindly and maybe he thinks he owns them all) , land & survey
department and JpJ.
I have been
doing some land title searches at the Land office, Kota Kinabalu so unnecessary
if ADOS shows them to all members as such assets do not belong to AVCF. In a particular case of search on the land of
All Saints Cathedral where the premises is sited, I had to submit my identity
card and the reason given was that that title was on the table of the head of
section. Why it has been sitting on that
table for a year already and what changes are in stall?
The other
question I would like to raise is that the Tenom case was done by ADOS and I
believe that is SOP of all land properties to be so but it is important to know
how many more private properties bequeathed or donated by members to the
respective local churches go on to the ADOS for processing? If not why not as in the case of Tenom with
the S&P done by a private non Christian law firm. In the Tenom case it may have been done by
the private firm but the Diocesan Chancellor so conveniently denied knowledge
of the final deal when he told the dialogue in ASC in October, 2012 that he was
not extended a copy of the S&P.
Should not he ask for a copy of the S&P as a Diocesan Chancellor?
If I want to
write about the many illegalities of ADOS under AVCF under the microscope, it
would go in many pages. Nobody would pay for it and yet some people are paid to
do rotten actions hurting the Anglican church.
ADOS needs
to appoint an Anglican independent inquiry
committee (AIIC) to clean the acts or misdeeds of AVCF for it to grow
accordingly to bless the Bride of Christ. HOBs of APSEA has unfortunately as a
non legal entity has doubly washed its dirty hands onto an already very dirty scenario
in ADOS reaching out to the sky of South East Asia and beyond.
Now we know
that the Truthblog and my blog are washing ‘dirty linen’ of AVCF/ADOS and HOBs of APSEA for good reasons. It could have been avoided if APSEA had done
its job according to its Constitution of the Province.
Now do we
have a choice to settle the whole mess of AVCF getting messier? Yes, I would say if an AIIC comprising
independent members is set up and AVCF be suspended.
I also
believe a lot of under current is ongoing to bring ADOS /HoBs of APSEA to the proper
perspective but not after we have touched the bottom of the bottomless pit of
mud caused by AVCF.
One of the
immediate action even before the 38 offensive items of AVCF are fully published
in the truthblog following the recent HOBs of APSEA Court case, the Tenom case –
a glaring example for action would be amongst others in the next Police Report
The urgency
is there. Appoint AIIC within 5 working days or the
Police Report would go forward.
