IPCM: NSC never trademarked stripes

FOUL! is back online.

The Malay Mail reports what the Intellectual Property Corporation of Malaysia (IPCM) said about the National Sports Council's (NSC) supposed ownership over the three tiger stripe design:

"We have not seen any application from the NSC. Our records show Mesuma Sports (Sdn Bhd) is the registered proprietor of the design."

This contradicts Telekom Malaysia's statement:

TM wishes to clarify that we have obtained the legal rights from the respective rights owners, namely the National Sports Council (NSC) and the Olympic Council of Malaysia (OCM), to utilise NSC’s Panthera jersey, inclusive of both NSC’s and OCM’s logos, to be used throughout TM’s “Team Malaysia”.

And NSC's director general Zolkples Embong's statement:

“....NSC has registered the design” and questioned “what right does Mesuma have to register the design?”

But has the NSC registered this under the Industrial Design Act 1996 as discussed in Frankie D' Cruz's column here?

If true, then why NSC kept mum when Mesuma Sports' application to trademark the three tiger stripes went public prior getting the trademark certificate?

Did NSC register the design under the Industrial Design Act 1996 before the tiger stripe design was shown to public in 2005? Was it for 5 stripes or 3 stripes?

HD says: I rest my case.

    Mesuma punya owner memang terlibat dengan konspirasi nak jatuhkan orang. Kita kenal dia lama sangat. Dahlah jadi multi millionaire masih tak cukup dengan apa yang ada. Dia mahu sapu business satu Malaysia. Tamak betul china ni. He is the master mind behind toppling great Malay Sports leaders. Macam dia ni bagus sangat. Tengkoklah dia ni..Orang dah benci kat dia yang gunakan duit until beli orang. Apa dia buat bila nak letakkan candidate dia dalam majlis olimpik Dan memastikan candidate dia menang dgn apa cara sekalipun. Sedarlah Kita orang. Macam mana sports negara ni nak Berkembang kalau Kita masih ada orang Yang buat perkara Jijik utk kepentingan diri sendiri Dan businessnya. Sudahlah George heng, cukup dengan duit haram u makan..hentikan kerja kamu yg kotor nak jatuhkan orang.

From 'Mr P' to 'Kemelut Dalaman BAM': Four chapters of 'mesej Whatsapp layang'

Image
Surat layang , or rather ' mesej Whatsapp (or some will pronounce as Wasup) layang '. That was what I received this afternoon from a number that is not registered on my phone. The sender identified him/herself as " ahli yg memerhati tingkah laku BAM " (Badminton Association of Malaysia). The four chapters were titled as:  'Siapa dia Tan Sri BAM "Mr P"' Perletakan Jawatan Presiden BAM 'Siapa Tengku Zafrul' Kemelut Dalaman BAM There were many allegations to which the sender justified as not " fitnah " but " hakikat apa yg berlaku ". The four chapters highlights Mr P's "connection kuat ", goes into why Tengku Zafrul was named as the incoming BAM president, and takes issue with the establishment of 'Yayasan Badminton Nasional' and Akademi Badminton Malaysia. The writer (unsure if the sender is also the writer) also wrote that ' majority in the Council dalam BAM semua tak berani buat laporan sebab tak

Ramlan saga - Part 3

UPDATE (May 23, 2012: 12.06pm): Dilema JKR, 'dua' ketua pengarah - this was brought to my attention. Read here for more. ----- I first wrote about the effort to remove National Sports Institute director general Dr Ramlan Aziz in March - as seen here . Then I wrote about the same subject again early May . I was invited to be a guest for this week's Kafe Sukan but had to decline as the recording was done on Sunday - the same day I left the country. Apparently Ramlan's predicament was discussed. Despite receiving numerous SMS-es - for and against what was discussed - I will refrain from commenting as I have yet to view the show. I have also been told there are efforts to get certain people to replace Ramlan. To me that is secondary. I have still not obtained the answers to these questions; 1. According to the NSI Act, only the minister can hire or fire the director general. Has the minister issued such a directive? 2. According to the country's Lab
