[Ada dua isu (atau lebih?) dalam berita ringkas ini. Pertama, tentera disogok dengan budaya mengunjungi tempat maksiat sejak menjadi rekrut lagi. Kedua siasatan polis gagal untuk memuaskan hati angkatan tentera. Ketiga - apakah semua tentera yang mengamuk itu akan dikenakan tindakkan pula? Dan mungkin keempat, perkara ini akan diperapkan kerana memalukan polis dan tentera sahaja. Tetapi parut itu sudahpun berbekas dan jika kerajaan gagal menyelesaikannya bersedialah untuk kebangkitan angkatan tentera pula. Bukankah apa yang berlaku di Sg Buloh itu sudah menunjukkan beberapa petanda? - Editor]

Malaysian Air Force Personnel Rampage Through Nightclubs

KUALA LUMPUR (AP)--More than 100 Malaysian air force personnel tore through nine nightclubs at an international offshore financial center on Borneo island, wrecking patrons' cars and injuring at least two civilians, police said Monday.

The half-hour rampage Sunday night could be linked to the death of an air force recruit who was killed in a fiery motorcycle crash after having drinks at one of the nightspots Thursday. Authorities say no foul play was suspected in the incident.

"Maybe they were not satisfied with the post-mortem report and suspected something else had caused the accident," Labuan police chief Sidin Abdul Karim said. "They went into one nightspot after another and started damaging things."

Sidin, quoted by the national news agency, Bernama, said that police had made no arrests so far. The damage caused by the men, stationed at an air force base on the island, was estimated to total up to 40,000 ringgit ($1=MYR3.80) at each club.

No other details were immediately available.

Labuan, off the west coast of Malaysia's Sabah state, is one of Malaysia's three federal territories, which also include Kuala Lumpur, the biggest city, and Putrajaya, the administrative capital.
