1. My experience with Creativate Brunei
Seeing that Creativate Brunei has ignored my numerous correspondences, I am sharing
my experience with its staff member there publicly.
I think it’s my duty as a responsible human being to inform everyone that Nazurah
Salleh, a staff member working at Creativate Brunei, isn’t the kind of person that
should be taking care of kids. I don’t want her near any children.
Here is my experience with her (summarized version at the end of this blog post seeing
how long and crazy my experience with her was):
Nazurah used to come to my house a lot back in Australia because she was friends with
my housemate Lina. Lina was a friend of a friend. One day, Lina suffered from a mental
breakdown (we later learned that it was partially induced by drugs) and was acting
erratically. She was clearly having a mental breakdown. I wasn’t Lina’s friend but I
suggested taking her to the hospital. Nazurah refused to do so and persuaded me not to.
The next morning, Lina was still acting erratically and Nazurah still insisted on not taking
her to the hospital. I had to go to work so asked Nazurah to stay behind.
At the time, our neighbor’s child used to come to my house a lot (she was 3 or 5 at the
time, I believe. We’ll call her “Anne” for a privacy sake). I had to leave to work and
Nazurah wanted to leave the house, leaving Lina by herself. As I was leaving, Anne
came to our house to play. Nazurah said she can play with Lina and let the child in. She
was about to leave Lina, who was clearly having a mental breakdown, with a 3 yr old
child, alone and unsupervised. I asked Nazurah what she was doing and she said, “Anne
will calm Lina down”. She was treating someone else’s child like a dog.
I immediately went back to the house and to my horror, Lina was flinging a three year
old in the air. The girl was crying and Lina wasn’t letting her go. We immediately
intervened.
I didn’t let Anne in my house. Nazurah wasn’t living with us and she let Anne come into
our house to “calm Lina down”, instead of taking Lina to the hospital. We did end up
taking Lina to the hospital after that.
I thought Nazurah had learned from her mistake but I was really wrong. She later said
that “all the crazy things you (me) said came true”. Crazy things like taking Lina to the
hospital and not letting a 3 yr old stay with a mentally deranged person because that’s a
form of child abuse.
Lina went to the hospital and came out. I took care of her during this time. After she
recovered and she no longer needed my help, she accused me of threatening to kill her…
with a candle. She accused another housemate of attempted sexual assault within the
same year as well and Nazurah knew about this. Lina also ended up stealing
money/things from me and other housemates. Furthermore, while my housemates and I
were away, she told some random stranger that he could move into the house without
telling us, the actual occupants. I’m assuming she wanted to st eal his bond money.
I thought Nazurah learned from her mistake but she still defends her friend to this day
(“Lina was sick”), showing her lack of judgment. I wasn’t there when Lina accused a guy
of sexual assault but given the fact that she never went to the police and Lina’s behavior
afterward, I don’t think that happened in real life at all. Nazurah must have known that
Lina was lying but she never once wondered what it was like for the guy being accused
of sexual assault.
2. I used to work at a courthouse in the past and had my criminal records checked all the
time. I have zero criminal records but I’ve met a lot of girls that were raped but couldn’t
prove they were. I have nothing but disgust toward people who would lie about sexual
assault but Nazurah doesn’t feel that way because it doesn’t affect her and she is okay
with defending people that would lie about it. Nazurah could have easily told her friend
to stop making accusations but she never did. She was ready to leave a 3 year old in an
extremely harmful situation because it didn’t affect her. Based on this, I would assume
Nazurrah just doesn’t care about other people’s suffering.
Even though it was a harrowing experience being accused of something I didn’t do after
I helped a person (no one believed Lina but it was still an extremely stressful situation
and a major betrayal), I think it was worth it given that I ended up saving a child’s life.
Nazurah doesn’t see it that way because even though she may seem like a nice person,
during times of stress she would make shockingly dumb decisions and refuse to take
responsibility. She never acknowledged how wrong it was to support a person making a
false sexual assault accusation. I think parents should know about her past mistakes and
that this is how she treated other parent’s child.
I have nothing to hide and records will easily corroborate what I’ve said. My former
neighbor can attest what Nazurah had done because she never forgave Nazurah for
putting her child’s life in danger. Anyone who knows me knows that I’m the kind of guy
that would stop a child from being abused. If anyone has any questions, please feel free
to contact me.
I did confront Nazurah later on. She never believed in Lina’s allegation against me but
she said that “you guys just had a personality clash”. Apparently, she thinks stealing
money from people and making false allegations (Lina was going around insisting that I
tried to kill her and cried when people didn’t believe her. She never came up with a
reason why I wanted to kill her and never went to the police) is just part of people not
getting along. Both Nazurah and Lina had ample time to apologize to me but they never
did, indicating that they haven’t changed at all. They almost caused a serious injury to a
child but they didn’t care. A person who thinks false murder threat or rape allegation to
get attention is nothing serious shows clear lack of judgment and should not be put in
such a responsible position as looking after other people’s children. I am sure Nazurah
never wondered the emotional damage she caused to Anne. Given these incidents, my
friends and I contacted Creativate Brunei several times because we were worried about
the children’s safety. Instead of assuring us of the safety measures they have in place,
they simply ignored our requests; as if having a child almost killed in your house due to
negligence is no big deal.
Summarized version: Nazurah left a 5-yr old child alone with a person that was clearly
mentally unstable and was having a nervous breakdown (Lina) to “calm Lina down”. She
left the two people alone but I knew that was a wrong thing to do. When I went back to
intervene, Lina was flinging the child in the air, making the child cry. Lina later got taken
to the hospital against her will. Nazurah never took responsibility for what she had done
and continued to do many things that I thought were irresponsible and shocking. This
includes the time when Lina accused a guy of sexually attacking her which I don’t believe
at all considering how she never went to the police, the amount of times she lied, and
how she later stole things from us. Nazurah never once wondered what it was like for
the guy that was being accused or talked to her friend about how wrong her actions
were. She doesn’t care about anyone but herself and makes horrible decisions. Dealing
with Nazurah and having almost a child killed in my presence was one of the worst
experiences in my life and I am sharing this experience to spare people from going
through the same things I did.
