Let me ask the former Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, how low can you go, to the extent of making such a wild, false and unfounded claim that I am equating Islam with kleptocracy.
I cannot but doubt Najijb’s intellectual calibre and even his educational standard when a statement with the objective to declare that Islam should not be equated with corruption and kleptocracy is interpreted by Najib as a statement equating Islam with corruption and kleptocracry!
A school student with ordinary mental and intellectual capabilities would not make such a colossal blunder but the former Prime Minister of Malaysia can make such a shocking mistake! What does it say about Najib?
Let all UMNO and PAS leaders who claim that my statement yesterday was equating Islam with kleptocracy speak up loud and clear, to identify themselves to Malaysians so that every one know about their intellectual capability and moral failing.
Let me make myself clear. I have never in my life belittled Islam or any of the great religions of the world.
All great religions teach human beings to be good, to have the virtues and passion for justice, freedom, goodwill and mercy and to abhor corruption, kleptocracy, dishonesty, injustice and all forms of vices.
Najib, as the sixth Prime Minister of Malaysia, will best be remembered by the monstrous 1MDB international money-laundering scandal which earned Malaysia the infamy and ignominy of a global kleptocracy.
Can Najib tell Malaysians whether the 1MDB scandal or Malaysia becoming a global kleptocracy is in keeping with any the great precepts of Islam or any other great religion in Malaysia?
Does Najib agree that Islam must never be equated with kleptocracy and corruption, and that with UMNO/BN’s electoral defeat in the 14th General Election, Malaysian voters regardless of race and religion have shown that they are the best adherents of their respective religions, whether Islam, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikkhism or Taoism to abhor kleptocracy and corruption?

Najib in reality is the leader of a feudal mindset which always end up being mediocre and can always find bigger deeper cesspool to sink everyone into to artificially hide their falling and failing merit.
Here Najib thought himself intelligent to turn his own real thoughts to slander his opposition. He accused LKS of insulting Islam trying to drag legitimate critics of his goals into cesspool he is sure will stain his critics. Meaning he really believe in the cesspool for him to drag his opposition. He really think Islam has a cesspool he can sling his critics with. He really sees his own religion poorly. Worst by his hurry to slander, he reveal his own real thoughts. He really is such a failure – who still control the largest Malay party and joining with a religo party long ready to follow the path he has caved to for quite some time now.

As long as a non-muslim make any statement on Islam it will be twisted by Umno and Pas in favour of their justification and they will splice in the royalty to add strength to their argument.This was started by Pas back in the 60s and slowly when the world saw the surge of muslim(Arabic)power Umno joined in the bandwagon.This had continued till today and even the new PH government is fighting hard to change the mindset of their old leaders.The recent announcement by the government that new laws will be introduced so that nobody will be allowed to criticize any religion and also question the rights of any citizen openly,this much disturbing phenomena will not end.These newly enacted laws will make people respect all religions and never will they bring the topic of ‘pendatang’.We have enough of these from the losers and racists.Najib should not think that by he going around to gain sympathy from people he will be exonerated for his evil misdeeds.As a failed leader he should start memorising the Quran so that by the time he comes back from prison he will be respected for being a Hafiz and he can play a part in the pondok institution of the future where all the hafiz will be able to understand Islam in the right perspective.

NAJIB IS JUST AN IDIOT despite clearly skilled in highly complex scheming..He nows ask why LKS says BN wins, then Islam is kleptocratic and only when PH wins, its not kleptocratic.
Well, BN is kleptocratic and clearly plugging the Religo Card. So if LKS says BN is win, then Najib has made Islam kleptocratic, its just simple logic. On the other hand, PH winning does not say anything about Islam, so clearly Najib makes very simplistic leaps of arguments, erroneous, wrong.
It means Najib is just an idiot – one capable of making political Islam in this country kleptocratic. Its just shocking it can even be possible..
