Najib Should Face Charges

 

Should he?

So said the Oversight Review Panel of the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission that met for the last time on the 24th February 2016 at 10am. The meeting lasted three hours and they concluded the meeting at 1pm.

Look at the time the above was released by The Malaysian Inciter – 7am! Now how did the ORP issue a statement before it even convened?
Suddenly, The Malaysian Inciter got blocked by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission! That’s another big lie up there that they published!

Didn’t the ORP agreed to a statement saying Najib should face the music? The Star came out with this:

  
There is a straight denial by the Chairman of the ORP on the “statement” released to The Malaysan Inciter. The Chairman issued the following statement:

  

Therefore, not only did the ORP not issue such statement, it has also denied requesting the MACC to issue a public statement on the issues.

I have a word of advice for Rohaizat, who is the Director of Strategic Communications and Media for the MACC. The MACC is a body that is supposed to be the epitome of the word integrity. Rohaizat has none and he should just resign, discard his uniform and join the line of ladies who have nothing better to do with their mouth.

  

In the meantime the police should investigate the “ORP statement”, The Malaysian Inciter, and grill Rohaizat to see who is paying him to be such a girl. 

Bagilah Muhyiddin Buat Kerja

  
Kemelut yang berlaku di Kedah bukanlah suatu perkara baru. Desas-desus ketidakpercayaan terhadap Mukhriz Mahathir oleh UMNO Kedah telah lama berkumandang melalui radio-radio karat. Malah salah seorang pegawai khas beliau juga telah meletak jawatan dan pulang ke Selangor.

Hari ini, sekumpulan orang yang mewakili kepimpinan tertinggi 15 buah bahagian UMNO di negeri Kedah telah menyuarakan rasa tidak puas hati terhadap Mukhriz. 15 bahagian UMNO mewakili tidak kurang daripada 600 buah cawangan UMNO. Pergerakan ini adalah 75 kali lebih besar dari lapan buah cawangan yang meminta supaya Najib Razak meletak jawatan. Anihnya tidak pula kedengaran Mahathir menyuruh anaknya agar mendengar suara akar umbi.

Walau bagaimanapun, saya kurang bersetuju permintaan kumpulan ini agar Najib bertindak untuk mengundurkan Mukhriz. Selain menjadi Presiden UMNO, Najib juga mempunyai tanggungjawab untuk mengemudi halatuju negara. Maka perkara yang kurang besar ini boleh diserahkan kepada pemegang jawatan yang lain.

Ada eloknya tanggungjawab menyelesaikan kemelut ini diserah kepada Muhyiddin Yassin selaku Timbalan Presiden. Apatah lagi selain membuat “road show” peribadi dan membaca akhbar hiburan seperti The Edge dan Sarawak Report, beliau tidak menpunyai lain-lain tanggungjawab. Selain Shafie Apdal, lakn-lain Naib Presiden juga sibuk menjaga hal ehwal keselamatan negara.

Eloklah Muhyiddin selaku Timbalan Presiden bertindak selesaikan kemelut ini. Mukhriz bukannya lain orang; dia anak kepada penyokong Muhyiddin paling kuat!

Bagilah Muhyiddin buat kerja pula…

Jangan Lakukan Kesilapan Dan Kebodohan Saya – Mahathir

  
Tajuk di atas adalah merupakan pengakuan Mahathir sendiri pada tahun 2007.

“Ini adalah salah satu perkara yang perlu kita betulkan. Apa yang diperlukan adalah sebuah kabinet yang tidak selalunya berpengetahuan kerana ianya dibentuk oleh ahli-ahli politik dan bukannya para pakar dan kadangkala ahli politik seperti saya boleh menjadi bodoh,” jawab beliau kepada para wartawan yang memberitahu bahawa kelima-lima lebuhraya bertol dibina semasa beliau menjadi Perdana Menteri.

Kita semua maklum bagaimana baru-baru ini kadar tol dikebanyakan lebuhraya dinaikkan, kecuali lebuhraya-lebuhraya yang dikendalikan oleh PLUS. Ini adalah kerana lebuhraya-lebuhraya PLUS dimiliki 51 peratus oleh UEM Berhad dan 49 peratus oleh Tabung Haji. UEM adalah 100 peratus milik Khazanah. Langkah pemilikan PLUS Berhad telah dibuat di bawah pentadbiran Najib pada tahun 2009.

Bagi kenaikan tambang ERL yang dimiliki YTL Berhad, konsesi ERL telah ditandatangani juga semasa pentadbiran Mahathir. Menurut perjanjian konsesi tersebut, sekiranya kerajaan enggan membenarkan kenaikan tambang, kerajaan wajib membayar RM2.9 bilion kepada YTL atau membenarkan mereka menyambung konsesi selama 30 tahun lagi.

Kenaikan yang membebankan rakyat kini adalah akibat kesilapan dan kebodohan yang telah dilakukan oleh pentadbiran Mahathir. Yang menanggung kebodohan tersebut adalah kita rakyat dan tempias akibat kebodohan tersebut terkena kepada pentadbiran kini. Adalah diharap pentadbiran kini tidak terjangkit kebodohan yang sama dan lebuhraya Pan Borneo bebas tol sepanjang 2,083 kilometer yang diumumkan oleh Najib baru-baru ini merupakan harapan cerah bahawa kebodohan tersebut telahpun berakhir.

Nota kaki: sila baca dengan lebih lanjut bagaimana YTL bekerja kuat untuk mendapatkan kontrak-kontrak kerana ianya bukan syarikat kroni Mahathir

Mahathir – Richest In The World? / Terkaya Di Dunia?

UNTUK BAHASA MALAYSIA SILA SKROL KE BAWAH

I often wonder how as the Prime Minister back then that Mahathir could afford to own at least a ranch in Argentina and possibly another in Chile given the low pay a Prime Minister earned back then. It is no secret that Mahathir was close to the former Chilean dictator, Augusto Pinochet Ugarte, that the late dictator was accorded the highest military honorary award by Malaysia in October 1995.

Then came this latest revelation that the Political Secretary to the Perak DAP Chairman, Chong Zhemin, has lodged a police report on Mahathir’s vulgar amount of riches

  
Zhemin claimed in his blog that the reason Mahathir mounted attacks on Najib is due to the latter stopping the former’s transfer of RM1.194 Trillion back into Malaysia. If the allegation is true, something must have been promised to Muhyiddin for him to also assist in bringing Najib down.

The Malaysian Anti Corruption Agency MUST look into this report!

————–

Saya sering tertanya-tanya bagaimana Mahathir boleh memiliki sebuah ladang yang besar di Argentina, dan mungkin sebuah lagi di Chile hanya dengan pendapatan rendah ketika itu sebagai seorang Perdana Menteri. Bukanlah suatu rahsia bahawa Mahathir amat akrab dengan bekas diktator Chile, Augusto Pinochet Ugarte, hinggakan Pinochet dianugerahkaan pingat kebesaran kehormat Angkatan Tentera dalam bulan Oktober 1995.

Kemudian terbit pula cerita mengenai laporan polis yang dibuat oleh Chong Zhemin, Setiausaha Politik kepada Pengerusi DAP Negeri Perak, terhadap kekayaan melampau Mahathir

  
   
Zheming mendakwa di dalam blognya bahawa Mahathir telah melancarkan serangan ke atas Najib disebabkan keengganan Najib membenarkan Mahathir membawa masuk wang sejumlah RM1.194 Trillion. Jika dakwaan ini benar, berkemungkinan sesuatu telah dijanjikan kepada Muhyiddin untuk membantu beliau menggulingkan Najib.

Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia mesti menyiasat dakwaan ini.

Friday Fools

The recent hike in toll prices have riled users up, including those who have no qualms about spending RM13.80 on a packet of Dunhill cigarettes daily; queued 30 hours for an iPhone 6s rose/gold version; and spend a ridiculous amount of money for Starbucks’s Macchiato Frap.

And they blame Najib for the increase on toll rates.

Virtually all the concessions agreement were signed during Mahathir’s time, and for some like the Maju Expressway, built by Abu Sahid, a good friend of Muhyiddin and crony of Mahathir, and the Senai Desaru Highway built by Ranhill’s Hamdan Mihamad were built in 2004. Both had their concession agreement signed before Mahathir stepped down. The Senai Desaru Highway had its Development Order signed in the late 1990s.

PLUS’s North South highway was built initialy by the government via Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia. Planned during Tun Hussein Onn’s time in 1977, it began construction in 1980, a year before Mahathir became the PM.

Between 1980 and 1985, the LLM built 366km or 41% of the proposed 823km of the highway at a cost of RM3.2 billion borne by the government.

  
In 1986, the whole project was transferred  to UMNO-crony, Halim Saad’s UEM, despite being the most expensive bidder and having had no experience whatsoever in constructing highways.

  
In the end the highway was delivered two years late and the government then had to finance half of the RM3.5 billion budget.

Yes, our money for half of that RM3.5 billion budget. In fact, it was RM1.65 billion.

If you think that that was a bad deal, try swallowing this: we also now have to pay 30 years of toll, and also pay 10% of the bill every three years if tolls are not allowed to be increased. This is reminiscent of the rip-off IPP deal that Mahathir gave YTL that agreement has ended and not renewed by the Najib administration.

In 2011, Najib’s administration took over PLUS from private hands, restructured the deal and avoided future toll hikes. The government owns 51% of PLUS while 49% is owned by the EPF.

All the concession agreements are now no longer being subjected to the Official Secrets Act. I am sure there is a link somewhere where we can view these agreements and the terms given to the concessionaires. However, MEX has this far declined to open up its concession agreement and we must all call for the agreement to be made public as it affects us all.

This brings me to remember what Miss Lim Sian See wrote a few months ago:

Dear Siti Nurhaliza (always wanted to write to her), the PEMUDA UMNO, Pakatan leaders, Tan Sri Muhyiddin, Khairy Jamaluddin dan yang lain lan penyokong Tun Dr M,


If I may seek your passion again, sirs and madams,


The last few days, you people have demanded to seek the truth about the Tabung Haji land purchase from 1MDB as you say it is shameful, putting Haji money at risk, against Agama, etc – with a vengeance and with a vigor thus far unseen.


Now, Malaysia Insider (not always correct nor 100% truthful, I must admit) has bongkar certain Lembaga Tabung Haji deals that seems to be clear bail-outs of the Maju group that has actually caused losses of depositor money. http://tinyurl.com/lmuaz45


These are the allegations by Malaysia Insider (citing Wall Street Journal) regarding Tun M’s govt bailing out private companies using Tabung Haji Money.


1) 1996,- LTH invested RM67m with Maju Holdings project in Johor – only for the project to immediately run into trouble: 


Total loss to Tabung Haji: RM67m


2) 1998 – LTH paid RM436.38 million to Maju Group for two then uncomplete properties valued at RM267.92 million. 


Total loss to Tabung Haji: RM168.46m

Other allegations include: 
-The chairman of Tabung Haji then was Tun M’s brother in law, the late Tan Sri Ahmad Razali Mohamed Ali – a clear case of nepotism.

– Immediate upfront payment RM220 million for a building yet to start construction even though Treasury guidelines only allow maximum of RM5 million – which was 15% value of the construction work.

—-

Let me highlight the differences between the deals then and now for you:


1) MAJU HOLDINGS deals of he 1990s – Tabung Haji paid RM504 million to a PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL COMPANY for assets professionally valued at RM267.92m – causing REAL LOSSES to TH of RM235.5m


2) 1MDB TRX deal of the 2015 – Tabung Haji paid RM188.5 million to a 100% GOVT-OWNED COMPANY for assets professionally valued at RM195 million (and secured further with another asset worth RM370m) . But will soon sell off at a PROFIT to TH for a few million.


See the difference?


Tun M time: 

One is LOSSES to TH and payment by TH to a private company- money never to be recovered for assets worth less than half of what was paid.


Najib time:

One is PROFIT to TH and payment by TH to a 100% GOVT company – money – money that will immediately be recovered within a week for assets worth more than was paid.

`

I am just asking you all to be fair and use the same enthusiasm, venom and vigor to seek the kebenaran on the Tun M era deals.


You have asked MACC, AG, PDRM to investigate 1MDB and TH and Najib. 


Just to be fair, can you please also ask MACC, AG (actually already investigated and found wrong-doing), PDRM to investigate Maju and TH and Tun M?


And if Tun M is guilty as accused (or refuses to answer) then please condemn him as much as you have condemned others and please never again side with him.


Also find out who is responsible but make sure you ask about the case where Tabung Haji lost money and not the one where it made money.


Please be fair and act fairly – or be considered hypocrite.


Have no fear.

I rest my case.

Historia De Los Cojones

  
Wishful thinking.

My take on yesterday morning’s press conference where the group of 6 spoke against SOSMA being used on Mahathir’s running dogs.

1) Mahathir now publicly admits that Dato Sri Najib has telor (balls).
  
Not only has Najib dismissed the two unlucky persons sitting on the right of him from cabinet, Mahathir also admits that Najib is brave enough to throw two of his idiots in jail – Mr Botox and Mr Fast-Until-Death-For-Eight-Days-Only.

The two were hit by SOSMA and charged under Section 124(L) of the Penal Code for passing unverified OSA documents to foreign agencies in their round-the-world trip to no less than half a dozen countries – and in the process, have hurt our country’s economic sentiments and our Ringgit.
  
Roti Telor Satu!

They were not held for speaking out against the government as Mahathir alleges. If this was indeed the case, Anina, Tony Pua and even Mahathir himself would already be held under SOSMA. Perhaps, Mahathir was trying to equate the arrest of the two to the hundreds of detentions without trial he prescribed during his 22-year dictatorship. Those were the years when, as Mahathir aptly describes, no one was arrested under the ISA for making a police report – because no one dared to make any police report against him for fear of being incarcerated.
2) Mahathir also brought Ku Li – who has stated that this is his last term as MP – just to tell the world that a vote of no confidence against Najib will not succeed. Ku Li also subtly took a swipe at Mahathir for introducing the self-serving system that is now protecting Najib.
3) Mahathir is also telling the world that he has failed to protect the people who trusted him – either they are in jail or they lost their job and is now in political wilderness. 
Mahathir is essentially sending out the message that he has failed those who trusted him. Who else would want to listen to the old fart now?
Mahathir also appears to be saying he is now afraid of Najib. And that Najib may even be brave enough to act against him. Much like how Mahathir acted against his seniors in the past such as Tunku Abdul Rahman and Hussein Onn.
4) Mahathir brought Sanusi Junid and Ong Tee Keat to send a message that the only persons willing to support him now are those frustrated politicians of the past. 
Sanusi Junid left UMNO in 2008 and consequently lost his prestigious post of UIAM president. He also did not get a chance to defend his seat in the 2013 General Elections. He remains in the political wilderness.
Ong Tee Keat became the shortest lived MCA president (he lasted just 17 months) when he lost to Chua Soi Lek despite Chua having a sex-scandal on him. He was also dropped unceremoniously in the 2013 elections. Later in the year, he was crushed in his bid for MCA presidency and came a distant last out of three candidates.
He, however remains as the chairman of Yayasan Bakti Nusa Malaysia, a NGO he founded whose head office is above the local 7-11 in Pandan Jaya.
Ong too remains in the political wilderness and unable to garner any support.
5) The smartest person here who did not attend appears to be long-time Mahathir supporter Tun Daim who refuses to appear in public with this bunch of frustrated leaders since he knows that Tun M can no longer defend him from harm. 
Tun Daim is smart enough to stay away and not put his rumoured billions of ringgit wealth in jeopardy.
And that is my understanding of what Mahathir was actually trying to say yesterday morning.
  
Jom balik! Chek tak mau dah tengok muka Najib. Apa hat Chek dok buat kat dia semua dok kena tang hidung mamak chek!

Good People Die Young 

Good guys die young

Or so the saying goes.

In the times of ancient Egypt, most famous Pharoahs died young. Tutankhamun was 18, Siptah was 16, Seti I was 40, Smenkkhare was 21, Akhenaten was in his early 30s, Hatshepsut was 50, Amenhotep III was in his mid 30s while Thurmose III was 54.

The most vile of them all, Ramses II, lived until the age of 91. He is the most remembered Pharoah, the most powerful, built most monuments and lived longer than other pharoahs.

  
Mahathir is 90. He too built monuments: PLUS highway, the white elephant called Dayabumi, KLIA, KLCC to name a few. Lives longer than all his predecessors. He was most powerful during his time, a habit so hard to break.

Four months ago, he feared for his legacies. Today, he states his fear by saying what others had said about his obsession for overbuilding legacies such as the Dayabumi, the KLCC and the KLIA. He has stated his objection to the KL118 Tower, formerly known as Menara Warisan Merdeka.

Bekas perdana menteri Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad memberi amaran Malaysia akan berhadapan dengan situasi bekalan hartanah berlebihan ekoran pembinaan menara 100 tingkat – Warisan Merdeka di ibu negara.


Sehubungan itu, Dr Mahathir (gambar) berkata negara mesti belajar daripada krisis kredit dialami Dubai ekoran bekalan hartanah berlebihan.


“Mereka boleh membina tetapi kemudian, bukannya sekarang,” kata Dr Mahathir pada syarahan mengimbas kembali Wawasan 2020 di sini hari ini.

It seems that his concern is baseless except if you look at it from his angle. The KL118 Tower will tower over the Perronas Twin Towers it seems.

  
No wonder the old fart is crying a river over a dying legacy.

Truth Prevails

For almost a year now Malaysians and non-Malaysians alike have been fed with the story that both Prime Minister Najib Razak and 1MDB have been doing a mega con job that puts Malaysia at peril.

Exorbitant figures were given and accusations kept flying around that have caused a deficit in trust among Malaysians and eroded the confidence of foreign investors. These figures as well as the goalpost (if there was any) keeps changing every time there is a rebuttal by both Najib and the 1MDB.

Notwithstanding the explanations given Mahathir kept up his attacks on Najib by sending his paid lieutenants to lodge police reports all over the world, colluded with the opposition, created a false perception that Najib would be a wanted man if he travelled overseas, while Mahathir himself met up with Tony Pua of the DAP at the Fullerton and also Sarawak Report’s Claire Rewcastle Brown to open up new battle fronts against Najib.

Even the New York Times, an associate of Syed Mokhtar’s Malaysian Reserve, ran an article in Bahasa Malaysia connecting Jho Low to Najib’s stepson and eventually, Voila! Najib himself! The millions of Malay Americans in the US must have benefitted from that article!

Three days ago the Attorney-General has cleared the 1MDB from any wrongdoing. Although the Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has twice recommended for officers of the 1MDB to be charged based on the Exchange Control Act, 1953 which really is about online form-filling and is subjective to BNM’s interpretation of whether the information given is complete or not. In BNM’s words, the charge was that the approvals obtained for the 2013 fund transfers were based on inaccurate or without complete disclosure of material information relevant to BNM’s assessment  of 1MDB’s application.

There was no mention of malicious fraud in the declarations at all; neither was there any mention if missing billions nor of money being laundered.

BNM never made any recommendation based on either the Anti Money Laundering Act,2001, or the Anti Money Laundering and Anti Terrorism Financing Act, 2014 which can only mean one thing – after investigating the transactions made by the 1MDB, there is no basis found for it to be charged under either Act.

This goes to show that Mr Botox, Mr Multi-Religious Hunger Striker who are Mahathir’s paid lieutenants, his well-paid bloggers, the Bruno Manser Fund (Sarawak Report) have all been malicious in trying to destroy the reputation of one man even at the expense of ruining this country by undermining its finances and economy. This tantamounts to terrorism –  acts of persons acting on behalf of, or in connection with, any organisation or individuals which carries out activities directed towards the overthrowing or influencing, by force or violence, of the Yang DiPertuan Agong’s government or any other government de jure or de facto.

Now that his lieutenants have been arrested Mahathir paints the “pariah nation” image onto Malaysia, saying that there is no freedom of speech here despite having said so many malicious things for the longest time.

Lest we forget it was Mahathir himself who, during his 22-year rule by fear, jailed hundreds wrhout trial, orchestrated the removal of two deputy prime ministers, fired a deputy prime minister, fired four ministers, shut down newspapers such as The Star, Watan and the Sin Chew Jit Poh for speaking against him.

And what did the Chief Pariah say last night about his next step against Najib and the 1MDB in spite of all the “all clear” given?

 

 
Anything goes for him as long as Najib goes – even if Malaysia goes as well. Even without hard evidence.

Going On A Diet Again

It seems that Matthias Chang, who was earlier arrested under SOSMA as his selfie-crazed sidekick was, has gone on yet another hunger strike.

  
“I CALL UPON ALL OF YOU TO GO ON A HUNGER STRIKE WITH ME (NO FOOD OR WATER WHATSOEVER) TO DEMONSTRATE THAT WE ARE WILLING TO DIE FOR OUR RESPECTIVE CAUSES. The person who has died during his / her hunger strike shall be declared a VICTOR for his cause.” said Matthias.

Laughable.

This is not the first time Chang, the closest goon to Mahathir arrested by the authorities thus far, has gone on a “hunger strike.” The last time Matthias Chang went on hunger strike was in 2010 when he sued American Express for cancelling his credit cards, which he lost.

Then he scolded the judge and went to jail for one month and started a hunger strike in protest. I was told then that it wasn’t a real hunger strike but rather he avoided solid food.

That strike lasted only eight days.

What is interesting is that his arrest came 20 days after his sidekick Mr Botox, was arrested initially under the Penal Code. Therefore, this isn’t a blitz but more on acting upon more solid evidence perhaps spilt by Mr Botox himself.

Like his master who now worships the Shiahs, Chang started blurting out religious rhetoric:

“ARRESTED LAWYER SAYS JESUS, ALLAH, MOTHER KALI AND TAOIST GODS WILL PROTECT HIM.”

Okay. He must be a psycho. Hopefully he gets his wish fulfilled and actually die for his cause.

Or we can all bring one each of the following just for him to enjoy the aroma!

  

We Signed The TPPA! Or Did We?

Zombies have begun posting lies about the conclusion of the TPPA negotiations accusing the Malaysian government of signing the agreement without first bringing the points for deliberations in Parliament.

Then again, they are zombies. Brain-dead.

The following is the press release from the MITI on the conclusion of TPPA negotiations:

   
 
For those with vision problems, here’s the shorter and larger version from the New Straits Times:

  
In short, all parties, the USA included, will have to get the agreement ratified by their respective  lawmakers before they can sign the agreement:

  
In another development, Malaysia’s secret service, the TADIKA KEMAS, has identified two agents from the FBI instructed by the opposition and Mahathir’s goons to arrest the Malaysian Prime Minister:
