the largest employer on Cocos and our role in delivery of

services and progressing projects. Further information will be

STAFFING: We are very proud of Ibrahim Macrae for his

recent achievement in being awarded a Highly Commended

finalist for the 2019 Trainee of the Year Award for this hard

work during his Certificate IV in Local Government (Planning).

Congratulations Pak Yusri, we are very proud of you.

PEKERJA: Kami sangat berbangga dengan Pak Yusri kerana pencapaiannya baru-baru ini kerana dianugerahkan finalis yang sangat dipuji untuk Anugerah Trainiee of the Year 2019 untuk kerja keras ini semasa mendapatkan Sijil IV dalam Local Government (Perancangan). Tahniah Pak Yusri, kami sangat berbangga dengan anda. PLANNING FOR LANDSCAPING OF WILLIAM KEELING

CRESCENT: The masterplan listed William Keeling Crescent

as an opportunity for improvement via improved landscaping,

shade trees and amenities. The masterplan was a high-level

concept and we are currently developing a more detailed plan

which we can cost and present to Council as part of the budget

process. To ensure we have full community support for the

plan, we are seeking community views on what they would like

to see, and where. Please submit your ideas to

[email protected] listing William Keeling Crescent in the

subject line.

PERANCANGAN UNTUK TAMAN WILLIAM KEELING

CRESCENT: Masterplan menyenaraikan William Keeling

Crescent sebagai peluang untuk pembagusan melalui taman

yang lebih baik, pokok pelindung dan fasilitas-fasilitas.

Masterplan adalah konsep peringkat tinggi dan kami kini

sedang mengembangkan rancangan yang lebih terperinci yang

dapat kami persembahkan kepada Konsel sebagai sebahagian

dari proses anggaran. Untuk memastikan kami mendapat

sokongan masyarakat sepenuhnya untuk rancangan ini, kami

mencari pandangan masyarakat mengenai apa yang mereka

ingin lihat dan dimana. Sila kemukakan idea anda ke

[email protected] yang menyenaraikan William Keeling

Crescent di subjek.

TRANNIES BEACH: Also on landscaping – we are planting a

few trees at Trannies to provide more shade near the beach

shelter and to assist with coast stabilisation. Unfortunately, a

couple of the coconut trees in that area will have to be

removed. The shade trees will be planted to try to maintain the

flexibility of the area for larger community events.

BELAKANG BATU KARANG: Juga pada taman - kami

menanam beberapa pokok di Belakang Batu Karang untuk

memberikan lebih banyak teduhan di dekat tempat

perlindungan pantai dan untuk membantu penstabilan pantai.

Sayangnya, beberapa pokok kelapa di kawasan itu terpaksa

dicabut. Pokok perlindungan akan ditanam untuk berusaha

mengekalkan kelenturan kawasan tersebut untuk acara

masyarakat yang lebih besar.

COVID 19 SUPPORT: The Shire has been very pleased to

support the AFP and Health Service in carrying out welfare

checks on people in quarantine/isolation. Fadulah, Shak,

Kenny and Luluk have done a great job in helping maintain

moral and provide practical assistance to people.

Isa, Azia and Ibrahim have also done a sensational job in

assisting the AFP to keep the community informed and up to

date with any news and how it applies here on Cocos via the

regular updates and factsheets.

And a sincere thanks to Kelly Edwards. CRC Coordinator, for

her timely and efficient delivery of the updates.

We are now working very hard to develop and deliver

programs that will keep the community engaged and

connected in this time of social distancing.

Thank you team – you have all done a sensational job.

SOKONGAN COVID-19: Shire dengan senang hati

mendukung AFP dan Perkhidmatan Kesihatan dalam

melakukan pemeriksaan kesejahteraan terhadap orang yang

berada dalam korantin/pengasingan. Fadulah, Pak Mus, Pak

Madeenah dan Mak Zamani telah melakukan pekerjaan yang

sangat baik dalam membantu menjaga moral dan

memberikan bantuan praktikal kepada orang-orang.

Pak Indra, Mak Nabiya dan Pak Yusri juga telah melakukan

pekerjaan yang luar biasa dalam membantu AFP untuk

memberi maklumat kepada masyarakat dan terkini dengan

sebarang berita dan bagaimana ia kenak mengenak di sini di

Cocos melalui berita terkini dan fakta sheet biasa. Dan terima

kasih yang tulus kepada Kelly Edwards. Pengurus CRC,

untuk penyampaian berita terkini yang tepat pada masanya.

Kami sekarang bekerja sangat keras untuk mengembangkan

dan menyampaikan program yang akan menjadikan

masyarakat terus terlibat dan terhubung dalam masa jarak

sosial ini.

Terima kasih tim - anda semua telah melakukan tugas yang

luar biasa.

Jokes of the Week

A police officer in a small town stopped a motorist who was speeding down Main Street. "But officer." the man began, "I can explain". "Just be quiet," snapped the officer. "I'm going to let you cool your heels in jail until the chief gets back..." "But officer, I just wanted to say..." "And I said to keep quiet! You're going to jail!" A few hours later the officer looked in on his prisoner and said, "Lucky for you that the chief is at his daughter's wedding. He'll be in a good mood when he gets back." "Don't count on it," answered the fellow in the cell. "I'm the groom". Man to his wife: “Do you know what our 6 year old son wants to be once he’s big?” Wife: “No.” Man: “A garbage man. And you know why?” Wife: “No, why?” Man: “Because he thinks they only work on Tuesdays.” A motorist caught by a speed camera received notification of a fine in the mail, plus a picture of his vehicle. Duly impressed, he sent back the notification along with a photo of a $100 note to pay the fine. An eskimo brings his friend to his home for a visit. When they arrive, his friend asks, puzzled – “So w h e r e ’ s y o u r i g l o o ? ” “Oh no, I must’ve left the iron on…”

Kongsi Connect is a project of the Cooperative which seeks to inform the community as to what is happening in the Cooperative’s world.

BREAKING NEWS 1. COVID 19 - Coranavirus (COVID 19) has been classified as a pandemic by the World Health Organization.

These procedures include the options of working from home. The General Manager, Hospitality Manager (Human Resources role) and Work Safe and Health Officer have met with Cooperative staff to explain the measures that the Cooperative is introducing that relate to the COVID 19. The Cooperative is working closely with its suppliers of goods and services that are introducing policies and procedures that relate to COVID 19.

I AM HERE FOR YOU

While the Easter long weekend looked very different this year, and each of us was required to stay home and stay physically

distant from others, I hope you were able to spend time doing something

enjoyable.

Although we are isolated, please remember you are not alone. It is

important to stay in touch with family, friends and neighbours via phone

calls, messenger, and other physically distant modes of communication.

As your Senator, please do not hesitate to contact me on the details

below if I can be of assistance. I know that these are trying and stressful

times, with many Australians losing work, and all of us

facing challenges we have not faced before. Remember, we are in this

together. We have seen some good progress in flattening the curve, and

we must continue to follow the medical advice and remain highly vigilant.

Now is not the time to get

complacent.

I look forward to visiting the Islands once it is safe to do so. In the meantime, I can be contacted at the following details and would

love to hear from you:

SAYA ADA DI SINI UNTUK ANDA

Walaupun hujung minggu panjang Easter kelihatan sangat berbeza tahun ini, dan kita semua wajib untuk tinggal di rumah dan

menunjukkan berjauhan dari orang lain, saya berharap anda dapat menghabiskan masa melakukan

sesuatu yang menyeronokkan.

Walaupun kami terasing, ingatlah bahawa anda tidak bersendirian. Adalah penting untuk terus berhubung dengan keluarga,

kawan dan jiran melalui panggilan telefon, messenger, dan cara komunikasi yang jauh dari segi fizikal.

Sebagai Senator anda, jangan ragu untuk menghubungi saya di nomor yang dibawa jika saya boleh dapat

membantu. Saya tahu bahawa ini adalah masa-masa yang mencabar dan tertekan, dengan banyak penduduk

Australia kehilangan pekerjaan, dan kita semua menghadapi cabaran yang belum kita hadapi sebelumnya. Ingat, kami berada

dalam ini bersama-sama. Kami telah melihat kemajuan yang baik dalam meratakan lengkung, dan kita mesti terus mengikuti

nasihat perubatan dan tetap sangat waspada. Sekarang bukan masa untuk berpuas hati.

Saya tidak sabar untuk melawat Pulu bila ia selamat untuk berbuat demikian. Dalam masa yang sama, saya boleh dihubungi di

“LAWA's IOTs Service is fully funded by the Australian Government”

Dealing with Police II - answering questions and interviews with Police

These are short articles about legal issues that may interest you. They are not legal advice. You should always get individual

legal advice for your situation.

This is the second article of three about dealing with police. The next will deal with police searches.

The police can always ask you questions, whether you have been arrested or not, except whilst they are searching you.

However, in Western Australia and the IOTs, there is a general “right to silence” under the law. This means that in general, when

you are being questioned about whether you have committed a criminal offence, you do not have to say anything. There are

some questions that you do have to answer and we discuss these below.

What do you have to tell the Police?

You always have to tell the Police, when they ask, your:

• name

• address and where you normally live and

• date of birth.

There are also some other questions that you may have to answer. If the police tell you that you must answer a particular

question you can ask the police if the question must be answered under the law.

Below are some of the questions and some areas of questioning where you must provide an answer:

Driving

If you are pulled over by the police, you must stop your vehicle. You must:

• show your driver’s licence if asked

• tell the police the owner of the vehicle and their address

• give your name and address

• take an alcohol or drug test.

Drugs

If you are asked questions about the manufacture (making), sale or supply of illegal drugs, or any property connected to the

drugs, by the police, you must answer them.

Customs

You must answer questions about the import or export of items. For example, you might be asked about a wooden object that

you brought back from Bali by a Customs officer. It can be an offence not to answer questions.

Firearms (guns)

You must answer questions where the police suspect you have information about an offence or a suspected offence under the

Firearms Act (WA)(CI) 1973.

Prostitution

You must answer questions where the police are investigating any offence to do with a child engaged in prostitution or someone

being induced (persuaded) into prostitution.

If you are in licensed premises

You must show proof of your age, if you are asked.

What don’t you have to tell the Police?

Apart from the areas of questioning and questions above and any other questions the police say you must answer by law, you

have a general “right to silence.” If you do make admissions to police about having committed an offence, anything you say can

17/04/2020 Page 12


be used against you in Court. This also applies to anything written that you provide to police.

Police usually prefer to get any admissions in an audio or video taped record of interview, because then there is clear

evidence that they have been made. Records of interview can also be written, but that is less common.

Taking part in a record of interview

Police will often ask a person who is being investigated as a suspect for a criminal offence if they will agree to take part in an

audio, video or written record of interview. In a record of interview the police ask lots of questions and record the answers that

you give.

Whatever you say in a record of interview can be used in evidence against you, unless there is some problem with the lawfulness

of the interview and the judge or magistrate disallows it being played to the Court.

A record of interview can also help the police decide whether to charge you. This can happen if, for example, you make

admissions about having committed the offence, or say some things that make it seem likely that you have committed the

offence. This is particularly so if the other evidence against you is not very strong.

You never have to take part in a record of interview. In virtually all cases, it is not in your interests to do so. You can tell the police

that you do not wish to take part in a record of interview. Sometimes they will still want to do the interview. In those situations,

you can simply say “No comment” or keep saying that you do not wish to answer any questions.

The police have to caution you before they start a record of interview. This is where they tell you that you have the right to remain

silent and warn you that anything you say may be used in evidence against you. It will usually be something like this: “You are

not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so, but anything you do say will be recorded and may later be given in

evidence.”

The police cannot bribe or threaten you to take part in an interview.

"Serbis LAWA’s IOTs dibiayai sepenuhnya oleh Kerajaan Australia"

Berurusan dengan Polis II - menjawab soalan dan interview dengan Polis

Ini adalah berita ringkas mengenai isu-isu undang-undang yang mungkin menarik minat anda. Ini bukan nasihat undang-undang.

Anda harus selalu mendapatkan nasihat undang-undang masing-masing untuk keadaan anda.

Polis sentiasa boleh bertanya kepada anda, sama ada anda telah ditangkap atau tidak, kecuali ketika mereka sedang meriksa

anda. Namun, di Australia Barat dan IOT, ada “hak untuk berdiam diri” dibawa undang-undang. Ini bermaksud bahawa, apabila

anda sedang disoal siasat mengenai apakah anda telah melakukan kesalahan jenayah, anda tidak perlu mengatakan apa-apa.

Ada berberapa soalan yang perlu anda jawab dan kami membincangkan nya dibawa.

Apa yang anda perlu memberitahu Polis?

Anda selalu harus memberitahu Polis, ketika mereka bertanya, anda:

• nama

• alamat dan di mana anda biasanya tinggal dan

• hari lahir.

Terdapat juga beberapa soalan lain yang perlu anda jawab. Sekiranya polis memberitahu anda bahawa anda mesti menjawab

soalan tertentu, anda boleh bertanya kepada polis jika soalan itu mesti dijawab di bawah undang-undang.

Berikut adalah beberapa soalan dan beberapa perkara yang mempersoalkan di mana anda mesti memberi jawapan:

Memandu

Jika anda diberentikan oleh polis, anda mesti menghentikan kenderaan anda. Anda mesti:

• tunjukkan lesen memandu anda jika diminta

• beritahu polis pemilik kenderaan dan alamat mereka

• berikan nama dan alamat anda

• mengambil tes alkohol atau dadah.

17/04/2020 Page 13


Dadah

Sekiranya anda ditanya soalan tentang pembuatan (membuat), penjualan atau menyediakan obat haram, atau mana-

mana tempat yang berkaitan dengan dadah, oleh polis, anda mesti menjawabnya.

Kastam

Anda mesti menjawab soalan mengenai import atau eksport barang-barang. Contohnya, anda mungkin akan ditanya mengenai

objek kayu yang anda bawa dari Bali oleh seorang pegawai Kastam. Ini boleh menjadi kesalahan untuk tidak menjawab soalan.

Senjata api (senapan)

Anda mesti menjawab soalan di mana polis mengesyaki anda mempunyai maklumat mengenai kesalahan atau kesalahan yang

disyaki di bawah Firearms Act (WA) (CI) 1973.

Pelacuran

Anda mesti menjawab soalan di mana polis sedang menyiasat apa-apa kesalahan yang perlu dilakukan dengan kanak-kanak

yang terlibat dalam pelacuran atau seseorang yang menyebabkan (dipujuk) ke dalam pelacuran.

Sekiranya anda berada di kawasan berlesen

Anda mesti menunjukkan bukti umur anda, jika anda ditanya.

Apa yang anda tidak perlu memberitahu Polis?

Selain dari soalan-soalan dan pertanyaan-pertanyaan di atas dan sebarang pertanyaan lain, polis mengatakan bahawa anda

mesti menjawab oleh undang-undang, anda mempunyai "hak untuk berdiam diri". Sekiranya anda membuat pengakuan kepada

pihak polis tentang melakukan kesalahan, apa-apa yang anda katakan boleh digunakan terhadap anda di Mahkamah. Ini juga

terpakai kepada apa-apa yang ditulis yang anda berikan kepada polis.

Polis biasanya lebih suka mendapat pengakuan dalam rakaman interview audio atau video yang direkam, kerana ketika itu ada

bukti yang jelas bahawa kesalahan telah dibuat. Rekod interview juga boleh ditulis, tetapi itu kurang biasa.

Mengambil bahagian dalam rekod interview

Polis selalunya akan meminta seseorang yang disiasat sebagai suspek melakukan kesalahan jenayah jika mereka bersetuju

untuk mengambil bahagian dalam rakaman interview audio, video atau bertulis. Dalam rekod interview, polis menanyakan

banyak soalan dan merekodkan jawapan yang anda berikan.

Apa sahaja yang anda katakan dalam rekod interview boleh digunakan sebagai bukti terhadap anda, melainkan jika ada

masalah dengan undang-undang interview dan hakim atau majistret melarang ia dimainkan di Mahkamah.

Rekod interview juga boleh membantu pihak polis membuat keputusan sama ada untuk menuntut anda. Ini boleh berlaku jika,

sebagai contoh, anda membuat pengakuan mengenai melakukan kesalahan itu, atau mengatakan beberapa perkara yang

membuatnya kelihatan seperti anda telah melakukan kesalahan itu. Ini terutamanya jika bukti lain terhadap anda tidak begitu

kuat.

Anda tidak perlu mengambil bahagian dalam rekod interview. Dalam hampir semua kes, anda tidak boleh melakukannya. Anda

boleh memberitahu pihak polis bahawa anda tidak mahu mengambil bahagian dalam rekod interview. Kadang-kadang mereka

masih mahu melakukan interview. Dalam situasi tersebut, anda boleh berkata "Tiada komen" atau terus mengatakan bahawa

anda tidak ingin menjawab sebarang pertanyaan.

Polis harus memberi amaran kepada anda sebelum mereka memulakan rakaman interview. Di sinilah mereka memberitahu

anda bahawa anda mempunyai hak untuk berdiam diri dan memberi amaran kepada anda apa-apa sahaja yang anda katakan

boleh digunakan sebagai bukti terhadap anda. Ia biasanya akan menjadi seperti ini: "Anda tidak bertanggungjawab untuk

mengatakan apa-apa melainkan jika anda mahu berbuat demikian, tetapi apa-apa yang anda katakan akan direkodkan dan

kemudiannya akan diberikan sebagai bukti."

Polis tidak boleh membujuk atau mengancam anda untuk mengambil bahagian dalam interview.

Brain Teasers

1. A little pool with two layers of wall around it. One white and soft and the other dark and hard, amidst a light brown grassy lawn with an outline of a green grass. What am I? 2. A cloud was my mother, the wind is my father, my son is the cool stream, and my daughter is the fruit of the land. A rainbow is my bed, the earth my final resting place, and I'm the torment of man. Who Am I? 3. I am the beginning of sorrow, and the end of sickness. You cannot express happiness without me, yet I am in the midst of crosses. I am always in risk, yet never in danger. You may find me in the sun, but I am never out of darkness. What am I?

1. A coconut. 2. Rain. 3. The letter ‘S’
