Naheen Datukship Shah Rukh?

Something is seriously wrong with conferment of this particular Datukship

1. a former Government official's ability to "influence" the award,
2. by virtue of a single movie filmed in the state and
3. the CM's role in pushing the "buck" to the former Government official?

NST quotes Ali Rustam saying six movies while The Star says a single movie. So which is right?

If it is based on movie that promotes Malaysia, then Sammi Cheng and Richie Ren's Summer Love movie shot entirely on location at Pulau Redang, Anna and The King featureing Chow Yuen Fatt and Jodie Foster and Sean Connery with The Entrapment would definitely be eligible for Datukship as well based on the locations which exposed Malaysia's tourism sites much more.

There is definitely a huge question mark and caused Malaysians all over asking "What stupidity is this?"

Best of all, they can't even locate him and doubt the recipient is even aware of the award. He might be asking "Datuk?" What Datuk or Why Datuk?" Or he could have already said "Naheen" to the title.

This particular conferment makes Datukship looks "cheap"!
