He said […]
... written on Sep 06 2018UMNO, PAS and MCA are trying to do what the previous opposition – PKR, PAS and DAP – had done. The PKR-PAS-DAP partnership which gave birth to the now-defunct Pakatan Rakyat coalition was a huge success when they succeeded in denying Barisan Nasional its two-thirds supermajority in the Malaysian Parliament in the 2008 general election. […]
... written on Sep 05 2018Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng has been acquitted of corruption charges over the purchase of a bungalow allegedly below the market value.

... written on Sep 04 2018The government of Lee Hsien Loong should just laugh off five naughty Singaporeans’ attempt to make Mahathir Mohamad as the new icon of democracy in Southeast Asia. But Singapore isn’t a nation that would let go of anything remotely belong to them – without a good fight. That’s part of their culture of kiasu (afraid […]
... written on Sep 03 2018Hasanah, the top spy girl of former Prime Minister Najib Razak is in deep trouble. The Malaysia’s ex-CIA Chief is as good as counting her days before being thrown into jail.

... written on Aug 29 2018Like former UMNO president Najib Razak, MCA president Liow Tiong Lai is game over.

... written on Aug 28 2018Nazri Aziz, one of 191 UMNO warlords, has been a good and obedient dog until now. Make no mistake about it. Unlike other poodles from Barisan Nasional component parties – MCA, MIC, Gerakan, etc – Nazri refused crumbs from his master, Prime Minister of Malaysia. Yes, Nazri was UMNO’s most pampered dog, a Doberman which […]
... written on Aug 16 2018The Sungai Kandis by-election was a straight fight between opposition Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan ruling government.
