Is 80% Enough?

The IGP, in the course of a speech about his Force, made the claim that 80% of his subordinates  are “highly motivated” to carry out their responsibilities. He seemed satisfied with that percentage and made no mention about what he intended to do with the fifth (20%) that must be presumed to be less or […]

Early Elections?

Press reports have appeared suggesting that PN “Prime Minister” Muyhiddin is contemplating calling  an early general election. The same papers fail to report on herds of pigs spotted flying in the KL skies. Possibly PN has been so busy sharing out the spoils of office between themselves that they have forgotten to bribe the voters?

Star Campaigner

Globally famous as a convicted thief and fraudster, with more prosecutions to come, Najib Razak is being presented by PN as their star campaigner in the Slim by-election. Is this because  PN think that a mega criminal is the best example they can find to ask voters to choose PN or perhaps because he has

Allowing Non-Malays

Press reports indicate that PN “Prime Minister” Muyhiddin has spoken about “perhaps allowing non-Malays “to hold leadership positions in his party” What arrogance and stupidity. All Malaysians must shudder to think that such a bigot can be Prime Minister, even through the royal backdoor, in their country. Even more alarming than the fact that a

A Defector Speaks

In remarks reported in the Press PKR defector and traitor Azmin claimed that it was not “posts” that he was after but the “good of the people and nation” He has forgotten, one must suppose, that it was precisely that aim that got PKR elected in 2018 and that it was mainly his traitorous behaviour

One Law For Us And Another For The Rest Of You

PAS big shot and number two Tuan Ibrahim “dismissed” what he reportedly called “unwarranted” criticism apparently on the basis that no Covid cases could be attributed to the gross breach of the law by PAS “lawmaker” Khairuddin in ignoring quarantine. That outrageous breach of the law was not just an isolated instance of a PAS

If They Have Not Got Anything Better To Do

According to Press reports Inspector-General of Police Abdul Hamid Bador is the very senior police officer heading the “investigation” into a report by a man that a “politician” sodomised him eight years ago! Presumably this poor victim had some problem with locating a police station to make the report. Malaysians have, by bitter experience, become

Back To Normal!

The puppet Prime Minister Muyhiddin is reported as saying that he and his friends will “bring the country back to normal” Of course that depends on what “normal” is.  Najib for instance? Admittedly one of the major crooks of Malaysian political life and no doubt a role model for any of those in power thanks

When They Have Stolen All The Money

What then? Malaysia was a rich country before the Najib gang stole everything they could lay hands on. And PN are busy stealing whatever is left.  So what future for what was once a democratic country? Direct , as opposed to indirect, rule by Sultans? Or maybe rule by religious fanatics, when they can spare

1.26 TRILLION Ringgit

This mind boggling sum is what the PN deputy Finance Minister told Parliament is the sum of Malaysia’s indebtedness. He did NOT go on to explain how PN, or indeed any Malaysian government, would service this enormous debt. Almost certainly because neither he nor any of his fellow crooks in PN have any idea. Their

Elections Are Expensive – Or Just Sudden Cold Feet?

So is mega theft of government funds but no PN voices are being heard in favour of stopping that! What is more, buying votes is a costly process and the money needed could be better spent, PN think, by transferring it from the Treasury to their personal pockets. Further there is a risk, in their

Only One Real Choice

In the midst of election talk by both sides in Malaysia’s political impasse and despite formation of new parties and defections and counter-defections among what can only be called the political class there is really only one way out of the mess that politicians have created and that is a general election. Only an election

Powerless?

Press reports indicate that the MACC are “powerless” to make MLAs disclose their assets. What nonsense. Powerless perhaps in the sense of lacking courage but certainly not so in respect of the law. The whole point of the MACC is to discover corruption and bring those guilty of it to justice. What better place to

Improper Use Of The Law

There is, of course, no law against insulting the Agong or any other prominent Malaysian. Criticism, often rightly, goes with such jobs and if VIPs wish to avoid criticism they should either comport themselves blamelessly or look for another job. It is scandalous that a Malaysian should be punished under a law not in any

Punished For Helping Orphans?

In his latest public whinge while awaiting his “appeal” mega crook Najib has claimed publicly that he has been punished for ‘helping orphans’.  This is the first time that the public has learnt that he is an orphan! Actually Najib is being punished for gross criminality, which has been a disgrace to his country and

Lies, Damn Lies And Statistics

PKR traitor, suspect in a criminal investigation and, just for an instant more, PN “minister” Azmin is quoted in the press as claiming that “investor confidence has returned “ due to “political stability” Really? He should produce an investor, any investor, who is happy to be linked to such an obvious lie for public interview.

Playing The Blame Game

Sarawak ChIef Minister Abang Johari is reported as blaming the ”State’s low income per capita” on what he called low employment opportunities in the petroleum industry!  No question then of the corrupt PN supporting Sarawak State government being in any way responsible! After all they are only the government and on top of that far

A Deserter Speaks

PKR deserter and PN frog Zuraida has been quoted saying she will stand again in the seat, which she won with PKR votes, at the next election. It is at least refreshing to hear a deserter speaking about the next General election as though she believes it will be held if PN reman in illegal

Cocky Crook?

Malaysian press reports indicate that Swiss national Tarek Obaid has attempted to get the release of a huge sum of over USD 340 million held by a Malaysian Court as part of thefts from IMDB. Obaid was a director of PetroSaudi which was involved in the theft of over 700 MILLION dollars by its directors

Only Twice A Month?

Press reports state that the bail conditions imposed on mega thief Najib while he pursues an appeal require him to report in on the first and fifteenth days of the month!  In that time he could walk to any country prepared to let him in. Malaysians should be in no doubt in this matter. Even

Tax The Hammer, BN The Anvil

As American mega criminal Al Capone found out the hard way that while corrupt judges and policemen can be bought tax is as inevitable as breathing and if you don’t pay you go to jail. For years, and probably much longer, BN’s bosses have filled their pockets with cash stolen or otherwise illegally obtained and

Like Father Like Daughter

Press reports show that an application by a daughter of alleged mega crook Najib to stay a civil suit brought by the Income Tax authorities was thrown out by the Court. Briefly she had asked the Court to stay a case brought against her for tax arrears of over RM 10 million! That figure shows that,

Still Relevant?

You bet it is. Sedition? The PN description for any criticism their actions. In other words if you do not like what others say about you just throw them in jail, using a law that Adolf Hitler would have been proud to have put in place in his Nazi paradise. A haven which Malaysia is

So Where Do They Get It From?

MLAs from Sabah elected to support PH have claimed publicly that they have been offered huge bribes to defect by the criminal PN “government”. No one in Malaysia will have any difficulty in believing their statements. For decades the country has been ruled by and robbed from by MLAs from UMNO/BN governments. PN is a

Criminal Insult?

Press reports indicate that a Malaysian lady has been fined a considerable sum for “improper use of network facilities” to “insult” a member of the Selangor royal family. Why should oppressive “laws” designed by a criminal government to suppress criticism of its actions be used for what is clearly, if anything at all, something for
