Letter to Jane Gray (Parliamentary Education Officer)
24th April 2010
Parliamentary Education Officer,

Dear Mdm Jane Gray,
Re: Need Assistance in a Forgery Crime
My name is Dian Abdullah. I am from Malaysia.
I am writing this letter to seek your assistance and bring to your attention a grave matter concerning a male by the name of P. Kamalanathan/p Panchanathan who claimed he received his Bachelor of Communications certificate from Edith Cowan University. Certificate number 2004100372 dated 25th November 2003.
The person concern is a running candidate for the Hulu Selangor Election from the ruling Government (UMNO). For the past five years many senior officers, Ministers and even the current IGP Musa Hassan had make claims they got their degree or masters from UK or Australia. But each time many Malaysians like myself made checks through all sources and found not to be true. In all the cases there were similarities where no pictures of the ceremony being taken if indeed they graduated from such and such University nor is there record to show proof.
At my daughter’s graduation in Sydney recently many pictures were taken. I myself had studied in UK, so I am not naive not knowing how ceremonies are performed and the joy of putting a graduation gown and pictures taken with our love ones.
This matter concerning Kamalanathan is getting very confusing by the day. Yesterday Olympia College Academic Director Tan Chee Seng gave a press statement, which you can read from the email reply from Jackie Lipiec of Edith Cowan University. What is most surprising is for the past four days as many as 20 enquires per day were made direct to Olympia College and drew a blank. So Tan Chee Seng statement that he could remember clearly Kamalanathan a student way back in 2003 without a file to refer to does not make any sense. Tan Chee Seng action is suspicious when he did not bother to counter the claim by the public until the Prime Minister Najib ordered him to do so and at the same time information on the course Kamalanathan had taken suddenly appear on the net.
What I need from you is to verify Kamalanathan’s certificate is genuine or forged. At the same time it would be good if Australia could safe guard themselves from further embarrassment due to such claims in the near future from Malaysia.
Regards,
Dian Abdullah
