The “September 11 Attacks” is close to 15 years old but it was the mother of terrorist attacks that is still full of mysteries and conspiracy theories. Depending on who you ask, the speculation behind the attacks could be spookily inspiring. Former Malaysia Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed would tell you that if the U.S. could […]
... written on Apr 17 2016The bet was it wouldn’t last more than 365 days. Rayani Air, however, is proving the critics wrong and may be on its way to business closure, sooner than expected. Just 110 days into operation, Rayani Air, proclaimed Malaysia’s first “Syariah-compliant” airline, has suspended itself before even the relevant authorities could do so (*grin*). […]
... written on Apr 10 2016Syrian War was a place to sell military hardware and gadget. Through real life experience of killing and bombing, it has provided the best “proof of concept” of the capability of Russian war machines.

... written on Apr 07 2016After liberating the ancient city of Palmyra, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is a very happy man today.

... written on Apr 01 2016Warren Buffett has just published his latest annual letter to shareholders. Why should you care, you may ask yourself. After all, you didn’t own and perhaps will never own Berkshire Hathaway stock.

Heck, they’re not even afraid of superpower Russia hence they […]
... written on Dec 30 2015MH132 was supposed to fly directly to Malaysia capital Kuala Lumpur. Mysteriously, the Malaysia Airlines took off from Auckland Airport, New Zealand, and flew to somewhere else instead – to Melbourne, Australia. After the missing MH370 and downing of MH17 last year, the last thing the country needs is another disaster on 2015 calendar. Fortunately, […]
... written on Dec 27 2015You may be forgiven for mistaken this airline as an Irish airline. After all, “Rayani Air” does sound like “Ryanair”, an Irish low-cost airline founded in 1985 and has since grown to become the largest European airline, operating over 300 Boeing 737-800 aircraft serving 31 countries in Europe, Africa and Middle East.
