What transpired at the Bar Council's dinner at JW Marriot on 17.4.2008 is something that Tun Salleh and the 5 judges have been waiting for the past 20 years . Although no official apology was tendered by the present PM but reading between the lines of his speech , Tun Salleh and his brother Judges , finally received what were due to them although 20 years late and through the present government.
Be that as it may , the Prime Minister has a long way to go to place the Judiciary on it's formal high pedestal . The amendment of Article 121 of the Federal Constitution which reduced the present Judiciary to one of the department under the Prime Minister's Dept , must be done at soonest when Parliament convenes in these coming weeks.
Till that day , Just being myself as usual.
