... written on May 09 2019Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim should have kept his mouth shut and let the 93-year-old Mahathir completes his premiership. It would be easier to intimidate PM-in-waiting Anwar Ibrahim than PM Mahathir Mohamad, the old political “war horse”. The junior should know that the old man thrives when challenged, especially from the monarchy. […]
... written on May 07 2019For a while, people found comfort in Sultan Ibrahim of Johor as the monarch stepped forward to become the hero against tyrants like PM Najib Razak and extreme organizations like JAKIM.

... written on May 03 2019There’s a piece of good news for former Prime Minister Najib Razak. His soon-to-be life in prison might not be so boring and dull after all.

... written on Apr 21 2019For years, Najib administration had been rubbishing the Wall Street Journal’s exposure of money laundering in the 1MDB scandal.
