... written on Aug 30 2018Who says Malay-Muslims are dirt poor? Those who think so should get their head examined. The ethnic Malays should celebrate because at least 200 of their Muslim brothers (and sisters) are actually billionaires.

Until his wish to start a third national car is granted, the 93-year-old prime minister is going to criticise, even insult, the people for being short-sighted.
