I smell a rat, a 90-year-old rat that will not kick the bucket until he successfully brings down his protégé, Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak. Of course, this rat is none other than former premier Mahathir Mohamad. For those who’ve been following our whining and bitching, can you remember what we wrote early July before […]
... written on Sep 12 2015Red shirts leader – Jamal Md Yunos – has declared the rally will happen, come storm, rain or earthquake. We support and believe every single Malaysian has the right to freedom of speech and assembly. However, judging by Jamal’s leadership so far, he doesn’t seem to be interested in a “peaceful” assembly. Unlike Bersih […]
... written on Sep 11 2015It’s all over the international news. Not happy with negative news stacked against the country – 1MDB’s RM42 billion and RM2.6 billion scandals – the country has added another shameful episode, just a week after Prime Minister Najib Razak went into hiding instead of confronting 1,000 delegates from 130 countries at IACC Conference. Just […]
... written on Sep 09 2015Pro-UMNO Red Shirts want to rally despite police saying “No”. Apparently, these supposedly very influential and million-members-club thugs wanted to show off that they can also mobilise at least 300,000 to the street, in retaliation to the Bersih 4.0 yellow-shirts mega rally, which itself claimed had attracted 500,000 people during a 34-hour rally recently. […]
... written on Sep 07 2015Previously, you’ve read how two Filipino divers deliberately and spectacularly scored “Zero” during the 2015’s 28th Southeast Asian Games in Singapore, so that the “Splash Brothers” could embarrass the Philippines sport authorities into splashing money. Now, there’s something equally bizarre happening in Egypt. Egyptian Maryam Malak had achieved nearly perfect marks in previous years, […]
... written on Sep 07 2015It was like a Hindustan movie – a businessman and a divorcee were madly in love. Unfortunately, the woman’s father didn’t like the man, most likely because he wasn’t rich or powerful enough. So, the father, who was then Deputy Tourism Minister, instructed his men to bring the guy who has stolen his daughter’s heart […]
... written on Sep 04 2015The way Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak hides every time there’s a remote chance people might ask about the allegation of him pocketing US$700 million, you may wonder if his favourite game during kindergarten and primary school was actually hide-and-seek. There’s little doubt he’s extremely good at this. I’m willing to bet my bottom […]
... written on Sep 02 2015In June 2002, the Malaysian government signed a €1 billion (US$961 million; RM3.4 billion) contract with Armaris (now DCNS) and Spanish naval shipbuilder Izar (now Navantia) for 2 SSK Scorpenes submarines. Soon after delivery, embarrassingly, one of the submarines couldn’t dive. However, the humiliation pale in comparison to the deal’s other scandals. A Mongolian […]
... written on Sep 01 2015Yellow fever is not over yet, despite the “Yellow Uprising” had already ended more than 24-hour ago. Nope, we’re not talking about the follow-up debate as to why there were more Chinese than Malay participants during the 34-hour Bersih 4.0 rally. We’re talking about Bilqis Hijjas, who allegedly dropped some balloons and has insulted Najib […]
... written on Sep 01 2015The 34-hour marathon is finally over. This is the first time a Bersih rally lasted such a long hour, and easily the most peaceful of all the four rallies ever held, an impressive milestone. Well, there were some provocateurs who tried their luck with “firecrackers” even after the rally was over but was subsequently apprehended […]
