Please forward on to those who may benefit from this email. Thank you.
There has been some confusion over the organization of the current meetings and briefings. Please note that the recent briefing held on Friday (Feb 22nd 2013) was not organized by the Protem Committee. It was organized by caring and concerned Gennevarians. However, Nadzir (President), Shanthi (Vice President) and I as Secretary of the Protem Committee personally felt that this activity of a Judicial Review and making of police reports is a viable option to consider.
At this juncture we believe that no option should be discarded as time is of essence here with GE 13 fast approaching.
Therefore we will personally show our support and want all Gennevarians to have access to correct and proper information so that you will be able to make an educated and informed decision based on correct information.
Through the Help Desk, it has come to our knowledge that there have been several misconceptions.
Many believe that if you make a Police Report you will not be able to get your gold from the company when it is released. Please note that your report is not against Genneva Malaysia Sdn Bhd (GMSB) so there is no legal reason for you not to receive your gold once the company is released.
We shouldn’t antagonize the authorities. Please note that we are the victims and we are merely voicing out our concern and issues to the proper authorities. GMSB will maintain proper relations with the authorities, however we are merely showing the authorities that we are here still waiting and hurting.
If you support the JR, you are going against the company. Please note that the JR and Police reports are not against GMSB and that our action is merely a safety blanket if things don’t turn out for GMSB as hoped.
One of the strengths of GMSB is our sheer size. We are definitely a force to be reckoned with. At this point we don’t know how things may turn out; so while hoping for the best lets prepare for the worst.
Therefore when we carry out any activity, no matter who organizes it, we should stand together and be heard. As the saying goes, “United We Stand, Divided We Fall.”
While GMSB Management is doing their part in getting Genneva back in operation, yesterday’s program on ‘How to Get Your Gold and Money Back from BNM’ is an initiative of a group of people whose intention was nothing lesser.
The Protem Committee did not initiate this noble move, however, it has the support of the President Nadzir, the Secretary Kavita Rajoo and myself as Vice President.
By making a police report you will NEVER be the enemy of the Management, trust me on this.
Five months has passed and we are still optimistic that we will all see the light at the end of the tunnel. Putting that aside and looking at our timing now with the GE13 around the corner, we must be prepared with more than just one avenue to obtain what is rightfully ours.
Lodging a police report and activating judicial review is an option provided by the law. When you make your police report and support the Judicial Review move, do it with full understanding that you are exercising your right to obtain what is rightfully yours and not because someone else asked to do so.
Just as a sunbeam can’t separate itself from the sun and a wave can’t separate itself from the ocean, we can’t separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one humanity.
However, everyone must row with the oars that one has, only then can we reach the shore together and enjoy the sun at the same time. We can’t say we are together One Genneva Family unless we exhibit it.
By Shanthi Masilamoney, Vice President, Protem Committee
UPDATE: Download latest JR Consent Form and police report template that is applicable to you for loss of Hibah and/or Commission. Please inform your customers and consultants ASAP.
Whether you have gold in hand or not, all GMSB customers and consultants are affected by the unjust raid conducted by Bank Negara Malaysia. Due to the unprofessional raid by BNM with no evidence of any wrong doing, all transactions stopped abruptly on 1 October 2012.
There are still no charges against GMSB and you were left hanging in a lurch till today. You either did not get your gold, did not receive payment for gold sold back or lost your source of income/hibah since that fateful day on 1 October 2012.
You can be a member of a CLASS ACTION against BNM and/or any other authority through filing of a Judicial Review at the relevant High Court. All we need is your consent and a contribution of RM50.00 towards the legal costs to kick-start the process. Payment method to be notified later.
Here’s What You Do ASAP:
Download the JR Consent Form and attachthe following documents:
Copy of IC (both sides) – cross NRIC “Court/GMS JR use only”

Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.
I was at the HelpDesk at Goldbeam today and I learnt a lot i.e that there are many misconceptions regarding the Police Reports and the Judicial Review.
Some of which are :
1. The police report will jeopardize the company Genneva Malaysia Sdn Bhd (GMSB) or it will go against the company. Truth is the police reports is your complaint against BNM for acting in bad faith. It has been about 5 months and still no charge against the GMSB and no release of gold and monies to us. You are merely asking the police to investigate BNM not GMSB.
2. By lodging your police report, it could jeopardize your claim for gold and monies as GMSB would be angry with you. Truth is you are acting for your own interest and protecting your own interest. You are not hurting GMSB nor suing GMSB in anyway. Why would GMSB not give you gold nor pay you monies if they were up and running? The fact that the HelpDesk for the JR is set up at Goldbeam office speaks for itself.
3. I also understand today that some of you are afraid to lodge police reports because you are afraid of being harassed by the authorities. Please do not fear, it is high time all of you take action.
For the last four months some quarters have been telling you, “Good news is coming and please wait for it. Do not do anything to jeopardise the good news”. I personally have heard it 5 to 6 times. “Once bitten, twice shy; twice bitten, never try…” 5 to 6 times means enough is enough! Someone is making a fool out of all of us.
Please fight back! Like Bersih, Lynas, etc. when you fight back you are taking control of your destiny, what more, we are fighting for our life long savings and our livelihoods. It is high time BNM be challenged for acting in ultra vires and for abusing their powers.
4. To those of you who have not lodged police reports for other reasons – I do not have to spell it out – but you are in support of the JR, please come and join the meeting How to Get Your Gold and Money Back from BNM this Friday 22/2 at Goldbeam Office as you may still be part of the JR despite not lodging your PR (HelpDesk Crew like to know who you are and how many of you are out there) . It is of course best for you to lodge your police reports as that tantamount to Public Pressure when BNM sees this happening all over the country.
I am one of the early ones who lodged my police report together with my customers, so I urge all of you to do the same to help yourself, your families and your customers to fight for what is rightfully yours. We were all robbed by Greedy Corrupted People! I got really fed up with the whole situation and I point my guns at the perpetrator of my misery BNM not GMSB because you do not bite the hand that feeds you!
Please help yourselves and don’t let BNM get away with our gold and monies!

Hot in today’s news, Dr Pornthip Rojanasunand has said she declined to perform a second autopsy on security guard C. Sugumar as Malaysian government was not happy with her previous work in the death of DAP political aide Teoh Beng Hock.
“Please send my message to your people that I’ve never wanted to be involved in politics I understand that each country have sic their own justice system but there should be no barrier for the people to seek justice ” she said.
Do you want a government like this?
Our government is the vindictive kind of the worst sort. Once they are set to do you in, no one is expected to help. If you help, they will do everything possible to do you in as well.
A government that is ARBITRARY in choosing what kind of law to do you in, no matter whether there is evidence or not.
A government that is AUTHORITATIVE that says it loud and clear that it is always right and will do everything possible to cover its ass even if wrong and if you try to do something to disprove what they are trying to cover up, they will again try everything possible to do you in.
A government that is COLD AND HEARTLESS and will not listen, listen, listen to the people’s plight and suffering, as what Gennevians are doing here.
A government that is never hesitant to TWIST AND TURN until they get what they want from you or run away from you once they got what they want.
A government that is THICK-SKINNED AND SHAMELESS even if the truth is exposed right in their faces.
A government that is so BOLD AND DARING as to rob its citizens in broad daylight of their rightful entitlement, contrary to any right thinking government that would abhor and resent from doing it in the first place.
A government that is ARROGANT enough to continue rubbing you in the dirt and scornfully laughs at you as you protest helplessly of being robbed, as if asking you – “what are you going to do about it”?
A government that is constantly and persistently going to BULLY you around for the next five years if it got elected again this GE13.
Gennevians, take the cue from the “Penang Lang” when they gave Najib a loud and resounding “NO” when he asked Penangites “Are you ready for BN?” three times. Say “NO” to BN and BNM.
How do you say no when there is no field and no PSY to allow you to gather?
It was Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s failure to listen to the people that earned him the public rebuke he got in Penang during the BN’s Chinese New Year open house.
He has spent huge amounts of money trying to impress upon Malaysians his concept of change. But he has failed. It is a pity but he was humiliated when the crowd in Penang said ‘No”, not once but three times, when he asked whether they are ready for BN.
It is strange for the PM to have asked the question three times, having heard their reply the first time around. Perhaps the PM was just doing what he does best. He was not listening.
The PM who has repeatedly sought support by declaring himself as a ‘PM for all Malaysians’ has failed miserably to demonstrate that very courage needed of a leader in such circumstances, to lead where leadership is required.
Then the even more disturbing failure on the PM’s part to see to it that action is taken against individuals who have single-handedly and deliberately flout the law by interfering into and freezing the lawful business of Genneva Malaysia Sdn Bhd (GMSB), and consequentially thereby having insulted the intelligence of all customers, friends and supporters of GMSB by twisting and turning the plot to become a noble action on the part of the government by claiming such raid to be in the name of protecting public interest.
Genneva Supporters have subsequently given not only on one occasion but twice, letters of appeal with the hope that the PM can see with his own eyes the plight of suffering Gennevarians.
Unfortunate as it may, there is just simply no action and the PM doesn’t answer. All he could whimper out from his mouth is “Don’t worry”.
Then we have the PM keeping silent when party stalwarts such as Dr Mahathir Mohamad whose views represent and hold great weight in support of GMSB, continue to support such demeaning acts of letting Gennevarians to suffer or just die in desperation.
Despite the unashamed act of keeping other peoples’ gold and money, these very same people keep on insulting Gennevarians and fellow citizens of all races even to the extent of pleading to the people to give the PM a two-thirds majority in Parliament, so that laws can be changed so as to get rid of Malaysians who fight against them, who fight for justice and fair play.
These are merely a few examples. The PM has sat silent throughout these incidents. He doesn’t seem to listen.
Consequences of Deafness
The PM has failed to understand what it is that Malaysia needs. He failed to understand that Malaysia badly needs a change in political mindset, where quite apart from economic reform, we need to build a stronger and more resilient society, with greater social values and moral fabric.
Malaysia needs leadership if it is to move into a new era, an era where all Malaysians can rest assured that its government is alive to the real issues around it and brave enough to deal with them. We have thousands upon thousands of Gennevarians crying foul over the unjust raid of GMSB and the government through the PM is not brave enough to deal with it, of course for reasons it knows best.
The PM has failed to do that. He has failed to live up to his slogans of “1Malaysia” and “People first, performance now”.
The people have sent a strong message to the PM: spending money doesn’t make you a better PM. Listening to your people on all scores and responding with solutions, especially in difficult situations, will.
There is much to be learnt from the public rebuke BN got in Penang. There is no way the people can force BN to listen to them.
BN can ignore the people as they have on many occasions. But when they ignore the people, they shouldn’t be surprised when the people in turn reject them publicly in the end.
PROVEN! Believe it or not, the little napoleons in BNM are really bigger shots and have got more power than the PM cum Minister of Finance himself. Next time when PM Najib Razak says “Don’t Worry” best take it with a BIG pinch of salt.
FMT : ‘Bank Negara ignoring PM’s directive’
Businessman involved in land dispute with a local bank claims Bank Negara has yet to initiate any action despite instructions from Najib Tun Razak to do so.
There are persistent rumours flying about that a certain “letter of release” is about to take place and a variety of reasons were given to ask Gennevarians to wait for it. Some insisted that it will be out by 15th February 2013, just after the CNY. However, one word of caution though.
Gennevarians must always be vigilant against taking in such excuses wholesale but rather it is wise that it must be taken with a big pinch of salt. If you ask me, I have already discounted the fact that it is going to happen and the faster you people realize this, the better prepared you all will be on its impact when this reality hits after the CNY festivity comes to a full stop.
If you are a customer of GMSB, read this message carefully, pause to digest it and then think long and hard what you are going to do next, preferably even before you go off to enjoy the CNY break. For when you come back after the merry making, all hell will break loose. That’s when you find reality comes slamming you in the face.You may ask, what is going to happen? My answer: NOTHING.That is when you will come to realize that there is not going to be any hope of a “release”.
And before you know it, you will be receiving lots of messages from people at the top that only if you vote for them, they will help you. They have the power to get the company released and they also have the power to give you whatever you want. Of course that looks darn well like a hostage drama; do something for me and I will release the hostage. Of course we all know that the hostage is not going to be released even if you are to do as told. That’s when you will kick yourself hard in the butt for not listening, more so when you see them cruelly laughing back at you, telling you in the face that they lied. What are you going to do about it huh?
My best suggestion is don’t go running to your consultant and asking them what to do. Honestly, chances is high that your consultant will run off to see the higher up consultant and that person will in turn run off to the highest super-duper consultant only to find that that consultant will be given such good ticking off that by such time it reaches back to you, your consultant would say things enough to make you cry. You will find yourself to be in a state of suspension until before you know it, the General Elections 2013 (GE13) is over and done with.
By then you will see that you are still pondering what to do but only difference is that you find virtually no leverage to do anything about it.
Therefore before you even reach that stage of hopelessness, why don’t you discuss your plan properly with your family and loved ones and set yourself a goal. Do just that without asking anyone except yourself and your loved ones. At least that way, you still have recourse for salvation.
Let’s face the fact, the super-duper consultants are not going to be bothered about you or your welfare. For you see, the other fact is that these people already made their money from you and they are not even afraid to hide it. It is shown by their sheer arrogance and contempt towards you.
These very same people take your call or visit as if you are bothering them, disturbing their inner peace so to speak. From a customer you have now been reduced as nothing more than a mere pest to them. You have probably heard from your consultant calling you an idiot and describing you as one of many “fools rushing in where angels fear to tread”.
However, don’t you want to get out of the financial quagmire that you have found yourself to be stuck in today? Are you done with doing something and have resigned yourself in doing nothing now but just to wait for the sky to fall on you? Or are you contented to go blaming just about everybody else around you except for the fact that you are not helping your own self?
Come on Gennevarians, the urgent business of the day is still for you to safeguard and ensure your own future and destiny. Nobody, not even BNM or the government has the capacity or the capability to bully you around if everyone stand united and stand solidly behind one another. We deserve nothing short of a harmonious peaceful and prosperous nation cleansed of corruption graft and all other foul dealings that undermine the rule of law democracy and justice.
So folks, I shall end by telling (perhaps reminding is more apt) each one of you that the time is drawing near for you to make a clear and unqualified decision; to wait or not to wait. In getting that answer right, just don’t ever be swayed by people who are trying to sell you “Janji Kosong” all wrapped up in niceties and present it to you as Janji Ditepati.
Seems some leaders of Barisan Nasional (BN) are going around telling Gennevarians who are members of BN and Pakatan Rakyat component parties that customers will not get their gold back from Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) before CNY or before GE-13. They said BNM will only release Genneva Malaysia Sdn Bhd (GMSB) after GE-13 in exchange for votes at GE-13 in Penang and Selangor.
Now that the cat is out of the bag, here is Genneva Malaysia Supporters’ response:
To show BN’s sincerity, the only way to counter the blackmail by desperate leaders in BN component parties is for BN to instruct BNM to return the gold rightfully belonging to the customers and release GMSB.
After all, there are no charges till today, 127 days since BNM unjustly raided GMSB on 1 October 2012, so why continue to hold the gold and freeze GMSB’s bank account? In addition, it is not within BNM’s jurisdiction to prove GMSB is an unsustainable business.
If BNM does not release GMSB by GE-13 announcement day, Gennevarians with their family members and friends in BN component parties will organise press conferences in their respective states to announce their resignation. This is to demonstrate their total loss of confidence in BN’s ability to protect the rakyat as their elected government.
Back by popular demand and as an extension of HelpDesk KL, there will be briefings on “How to Get Your Gold and Money Back from BNM” for customers and consultants. Drop everything and be there!
