Joshua Kong’s 3 motions

Please prepare your points here and support these 3 motions.  TQ Joshua 20/2/2015

Joshua Kong’s motions to All Saints’ Cathedral AGM on 29 March, 2015


1.  We need a new Dean for the ASC to move forward with restoration post the crisis previous Dean Albert CF Vun.

Rational:-

1.1  It is more than two years Dean Chak had failed ASC in many ways especially lack of leadership.

1.2  He was caught to follow the irresponsible instructions of ex Bishop Vun especially in the appointment of church volunteers/lay readers and the elections of office bearers.

1.3  Dean Chak did not make any effort to answer to my many questions and comments since he assumed office of Dean in late December, 2012.

1.4  Dean Chak failed to make the proper procedures to enable the Annual Accounts of 
ASC for year 2013 to be approved by the AGM in March 2014 and then the EGM in June 2014.

1.5  Dean Chak failed to get the approval of the important motions - some with errors - at the EGM held in February, 2014 when such motions were doomed to fail abin ito.

2.  Ronny Cham and his team of legal support must explain to Anglican Diocese of Sabah especially All Saints’ Cathedral why he had withdrawn his notice application of Appeal to the Federal Court [just minute before the hearing] on 24th November 2014 and if deemed appropriate he should apologise to all Christians especially Anglicans.


Rational:-

2.1  Ronny Cham was the lawyer in two legal suits acting for Albert CF Vun in the first one and then for the Bolly Lapok in the second but both on the matters of Albert CF Vun.

2.2  Ronny Cham was also advised by the ADOS Chancellor cum the Chairman of the Archbishop Advisory Board Stephen Foo and ex Diocese Chancellor Kenneth Thien.

2.3  Based on the Article in Daily Express of 6th March, 2014, following the first ruling by the High Court on 29th January, 2014, Ronny as the defendant lawyer brought up the issue of Res Judicata of my civil suit against Albert CF vun earlier.  Can this be a “perjury” when he was aware my case was not heard or judged but simply struck out?  Can this be “perjury” when it is irrelevant as the defendants in the two cases are different persons? 

2.4   Ronny Cham and his team were so confident to stick to the “illegal identity” when it was mentioned in Catholic context as “As far as the law is concerned, each diocese is a separate legal entity, incorporated in the states where it operates. Generally speaking, they are organized as what’s known as a corporation sole—a legal corporation wholly controlled by the individual bishop rather than a board of directors.  Yet with “illegal identity”, APSEA could proceed to Federal Court, an irony indeed.

2.5  Several ingredients of both civil suits are Contempt of Court if pursued.

3.  Ronny Cham and team as the legal of the defendant in the APSEA case must advise that the Archbishop must implement the compliance of the Appeal Court’s decision which reversed the rulings of the High Court by releasing the PAC Report of 2012 on Albert CF Vun and proceed to conduct the Ecclesiastical Court or E-Court without fail.


Rational;-

3.1 Court of Appeal held on 23rd May 2014 ruled as follows:-
3.1(a) that the HOB is to forthwith produce to the Appellant and to file into court a copy of the complete Report AND Recommendations of the PAC dated 27.08.2012;
3.1(b) that the HOB is to refer the complaints against BAV to the Ecclesiastical Court within 90 days from the date of the Order;
3.2  Instead of compliance of 3.1, Ronny Cham appealed by filing a notice of appeal to the Federal Court.
3.3  to avoid going back to civil courts, the Archbishop must know the consequences.
3.4  This case is largely affecting All Saints’ Cathedral (Dean) vis-a-vis ADOS (bishop) in dual roles of conflict and abuses of prerogatives

    Mr. Kong Yun Chee @ Joshua

    Dear Sir

    Motions Proposed for All Saints’ Cathedral (‘ASC’) Annual General Meeting on 29 March 2015

    The above matter refers.

    The Parochial Church Council (PCC) in a meeting convened on 17 March 2015 has deliberated on the motions proposed by you through letters dated 14 March 2015.

    After discussion and consideration, the PCC has decided that the motions shall not be tabled this coming AGM due to the fact that they are outside the jurisdiction of Cathedral AGM to make decision on such matters.

    Yours faithfully

    Hon. Secretary of PCC

  2. Dear Dean and others,

    When I used to propose motions in the time of Dean Koo, they were generally discussed in AGMs.

    Now especially, since Albert was the acting Dean, motions were largely "ignored" and rejected.

    So is Albert still alive in the body ?

    Very sad day for Anglicans as Albert legacy is going to ruin everything Christians.


    God bless His church.


    Joshua Kong
