Since the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) was founded in Feb 1949, it has been a uni-racial political party that comprises only Chinese members in the country – until 2018. It would take the party almost 70 years, and a humiliating loss in the May 2018 General Election, to reluctantly amend its constitution to allow non-Chinese to […]
... written on Mar 08 2021De facto Law Minister Takiyuddin Hassan appears to have committed sedition with his latest remarks. If it were the opposition lawmakers who said what he had said today, you can bet your last penny that thousands of police reports would be lodged for sedition. Days after the King said Parliament can convene during the current […]
... written on Mar 03 2021On 22 October 2018, former defence minister Hishammuddin Hussein boastfully said he will use his personal connections with Beijing to help to track down and repatriate fugitive businessman Jho Low (real name: Low Taek Jho) from China. Jho Low was partner-in-crime of former Prime Minister Najib Razak, who happens to be Hishammuddin’s cousin. Of […]
... written on Mar 01 2021The Proclamation of Emergency, which was consented by the Agong (King) on January 12, was a huge mistake from the beginning. King Sultan Abdullah, who had received briefings from a strong battalion of top government officials, including the Attorney General, Inspector-General of Police and Chief of the Armed Forces, stunningly agreed to a state of Emergency […]
... written on Feb 25 2021The coalition of three biggest Malay political parties – UMNO, PPBM and PAS – will most likely win the next 15th General Election. The only uncertainty is the emergence of young voters, thanks to electoral reforms passed by the Malaysian Parliament in 2019 to reduce the voting age to 18 from 21. This new “untested” vote […]
... written on Feb 23 2021Immediately after independent Malaysian news portal MalaysiaKini was found guilty of contempt and fined RM500,000 by Federal Court, the country’s highest court, the online news portal swung into action – seeking public’s help to raise the money. The exorbitant fines must be paid within 3 working days, which is next Wednesday (Feb 24, 2021). […]
... written on Feb 20 2021As expected, Rosmah Mansor, the despicable wife of disgraced Najib Razak was ordered today by the High Court to defend herself in corruption involving a RM1.25 billion project for the supply of electricity to 369 rural schools in Sarawak. And there’s a good reason why she burst into tears. She was extremely upset, shocked and even […]
... written on Feb 18 2021One of the funniest skills possessed by Malaysian prime ministers is their perception that they can insult peoples’ intelligence, especially the minority ethnic. In early 2013, a few months before the 13th General Election, PM Najib Razak dressed in a red Chinese costume and was beating the drum like an idiot, but acted as if […]
... written on Feb 15 2021Finance Minister Zafrul Abdul Aziz previously said that he expected the Malaysian economy to shrink by 4.5% in 2020, despite the Coronavirus pandemic. To paint a rosy picture, the government had even said at one point that the economic growth would be just -3.5%. As usual, the clueless finance minister lied through his teeth as […]
... written on Feb 13 2021Oops! The backdoor government did it again. And it’s fun to read how the pro-Perikatan Nasional supporters squirm with yet another double standards adopted by the Muhyiddin Yassin government. After the initial excitement for a Malay-Muslim government, more and more Malays have realized – to their horror – that this is not the “dream team” […]
