Corruption

Malaysia’s international standing and reputation have suffered such a slump that we are the butt of jokes of Africans in international conferences for corruption and kleptocracy

The forthcoming 14th General Election which would be held in the next few months is a golden opportunity for patriotic Malaysia to cleanse our international image and standing and to regain the respect and admiration of the world for our democracy, economic prowess, integrity and good governance.

A few days ago, I experienced a very humiliating experience when I saw a video of an African leader at an international conference making a joke about corruption in Malaysia.

This is a sign of the slump of Malaysia’s international standing and reputation that instead of Malaysians making Africa the butt of jokes about corruption, Malaysia has become the butt of jokes of Africans in international conferences about corruption and kleptocracy.

The past three weeks of Parliament have shown that the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak and his government are incapable of clearing and cleansing Malaysia of the infamy and ignominy of being regarded by the world as a global kleptocracy, and although the world continues to be aghast at the twin allegations over the international multi-billion dollar 1MDB money-laundering mega scandal and the RM2.6 billion donation in the Prime Minister’s personal banking accounts, the Malaysian government continues with the charade that the twin scandals do not exist within the borders of Malaysia!

Only Malaysians voters can make a historic quantum leap to save Malaysia from the infamy and ignominy of a global kleptocracy and rescue Malaysia from being the butt of jokes even among African countries for corruption and kleptocracy by voting out the UMNO/Barisan Nasional government and replacing it instead with a Pakatan Harapan Federal Government in Putrajaya, with the priority commitment to restore Malaysia’s international standing and reputation by clearing and cleansing Malaysia of the infamy and ignominy of a global kleptocracy.
