Corruption
Najib Razak has proven himself to be a legendary liar. But as his trial involving misappropriation of RM42 million from SRC International Sdn Bhd enters the New Year 2020, his lies have gotten so extraordinary that it’s beyond believable anymore. At the 72nd day of his criminal trial, the former prime minister has finally made […]
... written on Jan 23 2020Politicians, especially those who walk the corridors of power, always have the perception that the people from East Malaysia (also known as the Borneo) were not as “clever” as those from Peninsular Malaysia. Mahathir used to say – “Najib always assumes people are stupid”. Now it appears that it’s Mahathir’s turn who assumes people are […]
... written on Jan 20 2020Kelantan is not only the poorest state (GDP per-capita) in Malaysia, but also had the highest number of HIV and AIDS cases in the country. The so-called “Corridor of Makkah” where its state leaders are all “ulama” depends heavily on the federal government for everything – from money for development expenditure to even loan to […]
... written on Jan 17 2020When Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Abdul Hamid Bador declared last July that an explosive gay sex video implicating Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali was genuine, but the identities of the two men in the clips could not be determined, the reputation and integrity of the Royal Malaysia Police immediately took a hit. The verdict screams cover-up. […]
... written on Jan 07 2020Do not underestimate the idiocy of 4-million UMNO-Malays who had thrown their support for the UMNO Malay nationalist party in the 2018 General Election. Despite the burning issues of 1MDB scandal and GST (goods and services tax), they still voted for a crook such as (former Prime Minister) Najib Razak. But that was not the […]
... written on Jan 02 2020Former Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn, who was awaiting trial on criminal charges in Japan, has confirmed speculations that he has fled the country and is in Lebanon.

... written on Jan 01 2020Perhaps it’s true that Prime Minister Mahathir has “brain malfunction” as the power-hungry leader rushes against time to build a dynasty for his son. Hey, it’s not me who said that. It was Shri Ravindra Kishore Sinha, a Member of Parliament of India, who made that statement. Apparently, the Malaysian premier has attracted more attention […]
... written on Dec 30 2019Initially, Mahathir Mohamad thought his party – PPBM (Bersatu) – could morph into a new version of UMNO. After all, it was him who brilliantly destroyed the original UMNO in 1988 and created “UMNO Baru” (the current UMNO version 2.0). But unlike in 1988, Mr. Mahathir had quit UMNO to form PPBM on 8 September […]
... written on Dec 27 2019In front of a thousand curious people watching at Masjid Jamek Kampung Baru, Najib Razak performed his drama – taking a “sumpah laknat”, or swearing in the face of divine retribution to deny former elite police commando Azilah Hadri’s statutory declaration (SD) that he (then deputy prime minister) gave the order to kill Mongolian national […]
... written on Dec 20 2019For as long as one can remember, Najib Razak has denied any involvement in the 1MDB scandal, despite caught with his hand in the cookie jar – a jaw-dropping US$681 million in his private bank accounts.
