I am still thinking whether I should write on this episode.On issues like this I have to think twice-because of my peculiar background.The Midnight Owl

THE ACORN

The Eagle pecked at the acorn mercilessly,then grabbed it in its sharp talons and lifted it high in the sky to smash it against the rocks below to feast on its meat within.But the acorn fell into the crevice of an ancient majestic wall 1000 feet high.And the acorn sobbed uncontrollably-"All my life I have been treated this way,isnt there anyone who would show me some pity in this merciless world?" The wall deeply moved with compassion,shielded the little acorn.Some time later,the acorn burst open and struck its roots deep within,spread its branches climbing up the wall, and grew tall into the sky with its steely trunks tearing the walls apart.The ancient wall which had withstood many a ferocious thunderstorm, lamented its dreadful misjudgment as it collapsed to the dust.

CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATIONS

It can be a terrible thing when people you trust betray your secrets.That can be a bitter pill to swallow.But sometimes the things we hold in become a burden and we need a Confidante-somewhere we can pour out our inner burdens.But there is a risk. If the confidante turns out to be a Jackass,your reputation is smeared and the people avoid you like a plague.The safest Confidante is one who is dumb.
Did you know Lawyers are legally prohibited from revealing Solicitor- Client communications?

PP v Haji Kassim [1971) 2 MLJ 115 at p. 116
" The only relevant position in our Evidence Ordinance excluding professional confidences is Sect 126, which states no Advocate & Solicitor shall at any time be permitted,except with his clients express consent, to disclose any communication made to him ...this privilege does not protect professional disclosures made to clergy or doctors.."

But the problem begins when some Criminal tells his lawyer- "Yes' I did it"-now the lawyer cant tell anyone else.
