“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.”

Helen Keller

Quote of the Day

“You can’t always have a good day. But you can always face a bad day with a good attitude.”

Debkanta Roy

Thought for the Day

Pickup truck full of penguins… A police officer sees a man driving around with a pickup truck full of penguins. He pulls the guy over and says, "You can't drive around with pen-guins in this town! Take them to the zoo immediately." The guy obliges and drives away. The next day, the officer sees the same guy driving around with the truck full of penguins again. This time, though, all the penguins are wearing sunglass-es. The police officer pulls the guy over and says, "I thought I told you to take these penguins to the zoo yesterday?" The guy replies, "I did, and today I'm taking them to the beach."

A stage.... During a performance for the high school talent show at the local theater, a hole was cracked in the stage floor. Subsequent acts managed to avoid the damaged area until little Freddy, juggling bowling pins, accidentally stepped through the hole up to his knee. He apologized to the audience for his clumsiness. But a heck-ler in the back of the theater shouted: "Don't worry, Freddy! It's just a stage you're going through!"

MAJU PULU KITA / ADVANCE OUR ISLANDS: We have been absolutely thrilled by the response to the workshop on Saturday. We are expecting around 90 people to join in planning for the future of Cocos. A massive and heartfelt thank you to everyone who has registered for so generously giving their valuable time and placing their trust in a cohesive and collaborative approach to future planning. Following the workshop on Saturday, the design team, led by talented Urban Designer, Malcolm Mackay, will develop some options and scenarios for review and comment by the community. For those who are not able to make it on Saturday, you can still join the fun and get involved by coming to one of two shorter sessions where the scenarios will be presented on Wednesday 27 February either at 9am—12noon on Home Island or 5pm—8pm on West Island.

Silahkan hubungi Mak Zamani di Shire jika kamu ingin mengetahui yang lebih tentang apa yang kami buat dan mengapa. OFF-ISLAND BATTERY DISPOSAL: As many residents would be aware, a major legacy issue we are facing is the responsible disposal of old batteries. I am pleased to advise that we are working on an off-island disposal solution. It is a long and labor-intensive process with each battery needing to be cleaned, washed and packed to ensure it can meet sea transport and export requirements. We aim to have this legacy issue resolved within the coming months. If you would like to know more, please contact me. PEMBUANGAN BATTERY KELUAR PULU: Sebagaimana semua penduduk mungkin tahu, suatu perkara besar yang kami hadapi adalah pembuangan battery-battery lama. Saya bergirang hati untuk memberitahu yang kami sedang usahakan solusi pembuangan ke luar pulu. Ia adalah proses yang lama dan kerja keras dengan setiap battery perlu dibersihkan, dicucik dan dipak untuk memastikan ia mematuhi syarat-syarat transport kapal laut dan export. Kami bertujuan untuk menyelesaikan beban ini dalam berberapa bulan kehadapan. Kamu kamu ingin mengetahui selanjutnya, silah hubungi saya. WASTE AND RECYCLING: Speaking of waste management, I had a great morning a couple of weeks ago when I joined our West Island Waste Management Team, Iku (Nek Izahan) and Hamiril (Nek Zathiyah) on their run collecting household waste. Theirs is such an important role and they do it with such commitment and dedication. Thank you gentlemen. I noticed that sadly many people do not take advantage of our glass and aluminum recycling and would urge residents to recycle wherever possible. To assist we will look at some improved signage and community education in the near future. SAMPAH DAN RECYCLING: Mengenai pengurusan sampah, saya mengalami pagi yang menyenangkan beberapa minggu yang lalu bila saya bersama Kumpulan Pengurusi Sampah kami, Nek Izahan dan Nek Zathiyah dalam pengangkatan sampah biasa. Kerjaan mereka adalah sangat penting dan mereka menjalankannya dengan bersungguh-sungguh. Terima kasih kepada tuan-tuan. Saya melihat sayangnya ramai orang tidak mengambil peluang recycling kaca dan aluminum kami dan saya ingin mendorong penduduk untuk recycle

FROM THE CEO’S DESK ‐ 21 FEBRUARY 2019 ( )

This new piece of equipment will allow us to maintain more trees that would not have been able to do with the old EWP. It will also be useful in treating wasp nests.

The WWC Check visit to the islands in November/December – An update from Susan Burton and Lynette Ryan

We visited Cocos (Keeling) Islands in late November / early December last year, working alongside our colleagues from the Equal Opportunity Commission and ‘Sport and Rec’. We welcomed the opportunity to meet with people on Home Island and West Island and extend a sincere thank you to everyone who made time to meet with us and share ideas. At the end of the day we are all committed to building healthy communities and healthy children.

While on island we promoted the WWC Check as a screening tool to help identify risks to child safety. The WWC Check assesses a person’s criminal records to see if they have any offences and associated behaviours which indicate they may harm a child.

If you are an organisation or employer who provides services to children, then you must make sure that your employees or volunteers who are doing ‘child-related work’ apply for a WWC Check or hold a current WWC Card.

We have been visiting the Cocos (Keeling) Islands since 2013 and have learnt a lot about its special characteristics. We try hard to put ourselves in your shoes when we receive any questions or calls for help. If we can be of assistance with any aspect of the WWC Check and child safety, then please contact us:

Pelawatan WWC Check ke pulu dalam November/December – Berita daripada Susan Burton dan Lynette Ryan

Kami melawati Pulu Cocos (Keeling) pada penghujung November / awal December tahun kemarin, bekerjasama disamping rakan pekerja kami dari Equal Opportunity Commission dan ‘Sport and Rec’. Kami persilahkan peluang untuk bertemu dengan orang-orang di Home Island dan Pulu Panjang dan sampaikan terima kasih yang ikhlas kepada semua yang telah membuat masa untuk berjumpa dengan kami dan berkongsikan idea. Pada penghujung hari kita semua merasa bersungguh-sungguh untuk membangunkan masyarakat yang sihat dan anak-anak yang sihat.

Dimasa berada dipulu kita membuat promosi WWC Check sebagai alat pemeriksaan untuk membantu menimbulkan risiko terhadap keselamatan anak-anak. WWC Check memeriksa rekod kriminal seseorang untuk melihat jika mereka mempunyai pelanggaran dan tingkah laku yang berkaitan yang menunjukkan mereka mungkin boleh menyakiti seorang anak.

Kalau kamu sebuah pihak persatuan atau majikan yang memberi serbis kepada anak-anak, kamu mesti memastikan yang pekerja-pekerja kamu atau voluntir yang menjalankan ‘kerjaan yang kena-mengena dengan anak-anak’ mendapatkan WWC Check atau mempunyai Kad WWC pada saat ini.

Kita telah melawati Pulu Cocos (Keeling) semenjak 2013 dan telah banyak belajar tentang ciri-ciri khas pulu ini. Kami coba dengan keras untuk meletakkan diri kami dalam cara kehidupan kamu bila kami menerima pertanyaan atau talipun untuk bantuan. Jika kami boleh membantu dengan segala aspek WWC Check dan keselatan anak-anak, silahkan hubungi kami:

“LAWA's IOTs Service is fully funded by the Australian Government” Criminal offences of assault II

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 article is about the criminal offences of assaults with intent (to do another offence) and “serious assaults”. The last article dealt with the definition of an assault, what are circumstances of aggravation and two types of more serious assault. Assaults with intent (to do another offence) These are all dealt with under a particular section of the Criminal Code. You can be charged with assault with intent if you: • Assault someone with the intention of committing an offence or helping an offence to be committed. An example

is if you punch someone in their house to knock them out so that you can rob their house. Another example might be grabbing someone and throwing them out of their car, so you can steal the car in a carjacking.

• Assault someone with the intention of doing grievous bodily harm (GBHgbh) to them. Grievous bodily harm is either life-threatening harm, or harm that is likely to be life-threatening, or it is harm that is permanent (life-long) or likely to be permanent. An example might be slashing someone in the face with a broken bottle, telling them that you intend to scar them for life.

• Assault someone intending to resist arrest, or to prevent the lawful arrest or detention of someone who could be you, or could be someone else. An example might be punching a police officer in the face to prevent her from arresting you.

The offence of assault with intent will be dealt with by the Magistrates Court unless either you or the Prosecution ask for it to be dealt with by the District Court (called “on indictment” and the Magistrate agrees. There are rules that the Magistrate must apply in making this decision. If dealt with summarily, that is, by the Magistrates Court, the maximum penalty is 2 years imprisonment and/or a fine of $24,000, or 3 years imprisonment and/or $36,000 if there are circumstances of aggravation or racial aggravation. If dealt with by the District Court, the maximum penalty is 5 years imprisonment, or 7 years imprisonment if there are circumstances of aggravation or racial aggravation. Serious assaults These are assaults on particular categories of people. They include:

A public officer (eg a police officer, a public servant) • Someone acting to assist a public officer • A driver of

− A taxi − A ferry − A vehicle on a railway − A bus

• An ambulance officer • An FES worker (firefighter), SES worker, Volunteer Marine Rescue Service worker • A hospital worker • A worker providing health services to the public • A court security officer • A prison officer. An offence of this kind must be dealt with by the District Court if you are armed with an offensive or dangerous weapon immediately before, during or after the offence or you are in company with another person or other people. Examples of offensive or dangerous weapons might be a knife or a blood-filled syringe. If dealt with by the District Court, the maximum penalty is 7 years imprisonment, or 10 years imprisonment if you are armed or in the company of another person or other people. If dealt with by the Magistrates Court, the maximum penalty is 3 years imprisonment. Where imprisonment is mandatory (you must be imprisoned) for serious assaults If the assault is on: • a police officer, court security officer, prison officer, youth custodial officer, ambulance officer or transit guard (a

“public officer”) whilst they are doing their job and • results in bodily harm to that person

then a sentence of immediate imprisonment is mandatory. This means the sentence of imprisonment cannot be suspended.

If you are an adult, you must receive a mandatory minimum prison sentence of: • 9 months if you are armed with a dangerous or offensive weapon, or in company of another person or other

people • otherwise 6 months. If you are 16 years but under 18 years, you must receive a mandatory minimum prison or detention sentence of 3 months. A conviction must be recorded against you. If you are given a sentence of detention, the Court can also impose a conditional release order, which has the effect that the detention is served in the community. Defences to assault charges There are a quite a number of potential defences to assault charges. Some examples are provocation, self-defence, accident, lawful authority (where you have the authority to touch or use reasonable force with the person, such as where you are arresting them), preventing a mentally impaired person being violent, using a certain amount of reasonable force to discipline your child and stopping a riot. There are others. Many of these defences have rules that apply to them. If you are charged with an assault, you should get legal advice. Annie Gray, Legal Aid WA

“LAWA's IOTs Service is fully funded by the Australian Government” Pelanggaran jenayah mengenai penyerangan II

Ini adalah majalah-majalah pendek mengenai perkara-perkara perundangan yang mungkin menarik minat anda. Ia bukan nasihat undang-undang. Kamu mesti selalu mendapatkan nasihat undang-undang tersendiri untuk keadaan kamu. Majalah ini tentang pelanggaran jenayah mengenai penyerangan dengan niat (untuk membuat pelanggaran lain) dan “penyerangan serius”. Majalah dahulunya berurusan dengan penerangan penyerangan, apa keadaan penyerangan dan dua jenis penyerangan yang lebih serius. Penyerangan dengan niat (untuk membuat pelanggaran lain) Berikutnya ini semua diurusi dibawa bahgian khas Criminal Code. Kamu boleh di dakwa dengan penyerangan dengan niat kalu kamu: • Menyerang seorang dengan tujuan untuk membuat pelanggaran atau membantu sesuatu pelanggaran dilakukan.

Contohnya ialah kalau kamu menumbuk sesorang selagi berada dalam rumahnya untuk kelengarkannya supaya kamu dapat merompak rumahnya. Satu contoh lagi mungkin kamu menangkap seseorang dan melemparnya keluar dari keretanya, supaya kamu boleh menyurik keretanya.

• Menyerang seseorang dengan tujuan untuk menyebabkan kecederaan badan yang terok kepada mereka (GBHgbh). Kecederaan badan yang terok diantaranya kecederaan yang mengancam kehidupannya, atau kecederaan yang mungkin mengancam kehidupannya, atau kecederaan yang seumur hidup atau berkemungkinan kekal. Satu contoh ialah mungkin kamu geret muka sesorang dengan botol pecah, memberi tahu mereka kamu berniat sepaya berkekas seumur hidup.
