I have never accused Najib or UMNO of being anti-Chinese, anti-Indian, anti-Buddhism, anti-Christianity or anti-Hinduism and they should stop making wild and false allegations that DAP and I are anti-Malay and anti-Islam
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, nation building on Thursday, 3 May 2018
It is time that Malaysians return to honest, decent and civil politics about policies and programmes instead of the dishonest, indecent and uncivil politics of lies, hate and fear arousing primordial racial and religious sentiments of fear and hatred.
For instance, I have never accused the Prime Minister and UMNO President, Datuk Seri Najib Razak of being anti-Chinese, anti-Indian, anti-Buddhism, anti-Christianity or anti-Hinduism and Najib, UMNO leaders and UMNO propaganda apparatus should stop making wild and false allegations that DAP and I are anti-Malay and anti-Islam.
Najib and UMNO leaders warn that if UMNO is defeated in the 14th General Election, the Malays in Malaysia will perish.
How can Najib and the UMNO leadership, who have dominated the government in the country for more than half a century, have such low opinion of the Malays as to believe that the Malays are so gullible that they could believe such trash and falsehoods churned out by the UMNO propaganda mills?
How can the Malays perish in Malaysia when Tun Mahathir will be the seventh Malaysian Prime Minister and Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim the eighth Malaysian Prime Minister if Pakatan Harapan defeats UMNO/BN in the 14GE on May 9, 2018? Read the rest of this entry »
Five historic changes in 14GE on May 9, 2018
I call on the voters of Kedah to write history by bringing about five historic changes in the 14th General Election on May 9, 2018, viz:
1. Change the Malaysian Prime Minister;
2. Change the Malaysian Government in Putrajaya;
3. Change the Kedah Mentri Besar;
4. Change the Kedah State Government; and
5. Change the federal and state government polices which are detrimental to the interests and welfare of Malaysians.
I have just read the Malaysiakini report of a Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) survey which predicted that the Kedah State Assembly will be faced with a hung assembly following the May 9 polls.
According to Mohd Azizuddin Mohd Sani, who headed the research team, BN was predicted to win 16 out of 36 seats, followed by Pakatan Harapan (12) and PAS (8).
I conducted a straw poll immediately among the people who are here to attend the DAP ceramah, and there is incredulity and disbelief that PAS could win as many as eight seats, some thinking that it would be a miracle if PAS could win two seats!
There is also disbelief that Barisan Nasional could win 16 seats as it seems to be majority view that Pakatan Harapan can win more than half the Kedah State Assembly seats to form the next State Government of Kedah.
May 9 is therefore set to be a historic watershed in Malaysian History.
If the people of Philipines can change their President on May 9 two years ago, and the peop[le of South Korea changed their President on the same date last year, there is no reason why on May 9 this year, Malaysians cannot change the Prime Minister.

Nobody is interested in Arul’s fairy tales but Najib should step forward to account fully for the 1MDB “kleptocracy at its worst”
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, Financial Scandals on Wednesday, 2 May 2018
New Straits Times today carried an extraordinary headline: “Ask me anything, Arul Kanda tells DAP leaders” on the invitation of the 1MDB Chief Executive Officer Arul Kanda Kandasamy to DAP leaders to a townhall session in Penang to explain issues about the 1MDB.
Let me tell Arul – that he is at least two years too late. Furthermore, nobody is interested in Arul’s fairy tales about the 1MDB scandal, as the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, should step forward to account fully for the 1MDB “kleptocracy at its worst” which has landed Malaysia with the ignominy, infamy and iniquity as a global kleptocracy!
In the past 16 days, Arul was suddenly holding court almost everyday, purportedly seeking to explain the various facets of the octopian 1MDB money-laundering scandal.
I was surprised that Arul had suddenly become a daily publicity-seeker on the 1MDB scandal but now it is obvious it was all part of Najib’s 14th General Election strategy to pull the wool over everybody’s eyes, neutralise any Pakatan Harapan offensive on the 1MDB scandal and to remove the sting from multi-faceted octopian scandal of the 1MDB “kleptocracy at its worst” – to use the description of the United States Attorney-General Jeff Sessions.
Why didn’t Najib, who must legally, politically and personally bear full responsibility for the 1MDB scandal, tell Malaysians and the world in the past three years: Ask me anything about the 1MDB? Read the rest of this entry »
If Mahathir is anti-Chinese, why MCA leaders were prepared to serve under him as MCA Ministers, MPs, State Excos and State Assembly reps for 22 years?
Midway in the 11-day 14th General Election, the MCA/UMNO/Barisan Nasional election campaign has take a turn towards greater irresponsibility and dangerous trend in the politics of race, religion, fear, hate and lies.
Lies and falsehoods had been spread to accuse me of being anti-Malay and anti-Islam to create fear and hate among the Malays.
Now, there is a new twist that Tun Mahathir is anti-Chinese by MCA propagandists.
Let me ask the MCA leadership to explain why, if Mahathir is anti-Chinese, MCA leaders were prepared to serve under him as MCA Ministers, Members of Parliament, State Executive Councillors and State Assembly representatives for 22 years?
I was in Telemong, Karak and Lurah Bilut earlier before coming to Raub, and in Raub and Bentong parliamentary constituencies, there was the giant billboard of the MCA President Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai with China President, Xi Jinping, giving the impression to foreign visitors that Xi, the great Chinese leader, is contesting in Pahang in Malaysia’s 14th General Election on May 9, 2018.

Xi Jinping is a great China President but a foreign visitor to Malaysia would think that Xi Jinping is contesting in Malaysia’s 14GE
A foreign visitor to Malaysia would think that China President Xi Jinping is contesting in Malaysia’s 14th General Election on May 9, 2018.
Xi Jinping is an outstanding leader and great President of China, but is he contesting in the Malaysian general elections, where his photograph on giant billboards is put up all over the country, when even the image of Malaysia’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Tun Mahathir is summarily and unceremoniously torn out from Pakatan Harapan election billboards by Election Commission?
The MCA President, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, should explain why he is putting up giant billboards of Xi Jinping in Bentong and in constituencies contested by MCA, and not billboards of the Barisan Nasional President and Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
Is this an admission that in his heart of hearts, the MCA President knows that Najib is the most unpopular Prime Minister in Malaysian history, responsible for the internationally infamous 1MDB money-laundering scandal which, overnight, turned Malaysia into a global kleptocracy and international outcast?
If so, why had there not been a single MCA Minister, Member of Parliament, State Assembly representative or leader who had dared to question Najib whether in Cabinet, Parliament or the Barisan Nasional Supreme Council or other BN forums in the past five years on the 1MDB scandal?

Najib has no equal as the best actor in Malaysian political arena
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, Najib Razak on Tuesday, 1 May 2018
Although the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak has accused Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad as the No. 1 actor, who should get an Oscar for his acting, there is no doubt that Najib has no equal as the best actor in the Malaysian political arena.
Najib has three acting roles in the 14th General Election:
Firstly, pretending that the international multi-billion-dollar 1MDB money-laundering scandal which had given Malaysia the infamy of a global kleptocracy does not exist, that Malaysia had not lost a single sen from 1MDB scandal, and that there is good governance and full public accountability in Malaysia.
This requires acting of the first order, for the whole world knows that 1MDB is the world’s “worst kleptocracy” to use the words of the United States Attorney-General, some 10 countries are investigating the 1MDB money-laundering scandal with several of them closing down financial institutions involved in the money-laundering scandal including several former bankers found guilty of money-laundering crimes and some serving prison time; and there is the evidence of the ill-gotten gains of 1MDB money-laundering gains like the billion-ringgit Equanimity luxury superyacht impounded in Indonesia in February and the RM144 million pink diamond necklace bought for the wife of “MO1”.
Najib even claimed that the Parliamentary Public Accounts Committee (PAC) had cleared him of any wrongdoing in the 1MDB scandal but he dared not accept my challenge to a public encounter to quote chapter and verse to prove that the PAC report had indeed cleared him of wrongdoing – as what Najib claimed was a pure lie.

Reject UMNO/BN on May 9, 2018 to Save Malaysia from a kakistocracy now that we have become a global kleptocracy
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, nation building on Tuesday, 1 May 2018
The 14th General Election will be the most important general election Malaysians have ever had to face.
It will mark the first time in our history when a former prime minister leads the Opposition into battle against the party and coalition he once led. In doing so, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has rejected his old party, Umno, and condemned it as a party that no longer fights for the interests of the Malays and Malaysians. He has accused Umno’s leaders as being greedy, corrupt, power-crazy, and serving their own interests.
Many Malays who still revere Tun Mahathir may now be convinced to vote against Umno for the first time in their lives. They may now see in Pakatan Harapan an alternative to Barisan Nasional (BN). This will spark a new voting trend for many Malays. And it brings hope to Pakatan Harapan. For we cannot ignore the fact that GE14 will largely be decided by the Malays.
At the same time, we must also take note that Malaysians of all races have never been so distrustful and contemptuous of BN than now. The 1MDB scandal has tarnished the country’s good name throughout the world, with billions of ringgit of the people’s money stolen from the fund, some of it going to a high public official known as MO1. Other scandals have emerged, like those involving Felda and Mara, which further show how untrustworthy the so-called protectors of the people have become.
After a long-overdue reign of 61 years, the BN government has become not only a kleptocracy (i.e. government of thieves) but also a kakistocracy (i.e. government by the worst). Read the rest of this entry »
14GE on May 9, 2018 is the “last mile” for Malaysians, who have been waiting for 61 years for political change – for a change of Prime Minister, the Malaysian Government and national policies for the fulfillment of the Malaysian Dream
The 14th General Election on May 9, 2018 is the “last mile” for Malaysians, who have been waiting for 61 years for political change – for a change of Prime Minister, the Malaysian Government and national policies for the fulfillment of the Malaysian Dream.
The 14th General Election on May 9, 2018 is unlike all the previous thirteen general elections in the six decades of Malaysian nationhood, when voters elected the Member of Parliament and the State Assembly representative in their respective areas.
But in the 14th General Election on May 9, 2018, the 15 million Malaysians voters will not only elect their Member of Parliament and State Assembly representative, they will also elect the Prime Minister of Malaysia – whether Datuk Seri Najib Razak will continue as Prime Minister through a combination dirty electoral tactics, worst gerrymanderying in the nation’s history, and undemocratic laws and measures making a mockery of a free, fair and honest election, or whether Najib will be ousted from Putrajaya to be replaced by Tun Mahathir as the new Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Dr. Wan Azizah Wan Ismail as the new Deputy Prime Mijnister – and Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as the eighth Prime Minister of Malaysia.
Furthermore, a Malay tsunami is in the making. Read the rest of this entry »
Has the MCA leadership, starting with MCA President Liow Tiong Lai, lost confidence in Najib that it is putting up Xi Jinping’s photograph on MCA election billboards instead of Najib?
The question swirling in the minds of Malaysians is whether the MCA leadership, starting with the MCA President, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, has lost confidence in the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, believing that Barisan Nasional would lose in the 14th General Election on May 9, 2018 that MCA is putting up the photograph of the China’s President, Xi Jinping on MCA billboards instead of that of Najib?
This is the latest sign of the political bankruptcy of MCA.
But what is shocking is the rude and inexcusable action of the Election Commission tearing out the image of Malaysia’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad – the most blatant being the Election Commission’s action this morning cutting out Mahathir’s image from the billboard in Ayer Hitam, which had displayed the photographs of DAP/Pakatan Harapan candidate, Liew Ching Tong on the right, Tun Mahathir at the centre and the DAP/PH candidate for Yong Peng state assembly seat, Chew Pek Choo on the left.
I do not believe that the enforcement officers are happy at all in carrying out the most unreasonable and excessive orders to cut out Mahathir’s image from the election billboard, and the Prime Minister must explain why government servants are forced to do such an unpopular and unreasonable directive.

People of Buloh Kasap and Segamat join Malaysians to condemn the cutting out of Mahathir’s image from giant billboard in Ayer Hitam contest
The people of Buloh Kasap and Segamat join all right-thinking Malaysians to condemn the cutting out of the image of Malaysia’s longest-serving Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad from a giant billboard in Ayer Hitam, featuring DAP/PH candidate for Ayer Hitam parliamentary constituency, Liew Ching Tong, Tun Mahathir and the DAP/PH candidate for Yong Peng state assembly seat, Chew Pek Choo.
I saw the photographs on Malaysiakini report on the cutting out of Mahathir’s image from the giant billboard half an hour ago, and I must confess that I was utterly shocked that such disrespect and contempt for the seniors and elders in the country could happen in so blatant and brazen a manner.
Let me say that it is not only the Chinese and Indians in Malaysia who are outraged at the contempt shown to Mahathir, I believe that the overwhelming majority of Malays in Malaysia will be equally outraged.
Why is Najib so frightened of Mahathir? Read the rest of this entry »
Just as Chinese in Malaysia do not perish without MCA, Indians do not perish without MIC, Malays will not perish without UMNO
The Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, said there is no Malay tsunami, but his actions belie his words.
He appears to be increasingly desperate that there will be a Malay tsunami, making him resort to the politics of race, hate and fear to an extent which had never been done by any Prime Minister and UMNO President before.
He even alleged that it is the DAP which is inventing the Malay tsunami.
But up and down the country, a Malay tsunami is in the making, and the question is whether the Malay tsunami will be strong and powerful enough by Polling Day on May 9, 2018 to dislodge Najib and the UMNO/BN coalition from Putrajaya.
Pollster Merdeka Centre confirms that there is a Malay tsunami at the beginning of April, but was of view that it was not strong enough to put Pakatan Harapan in power. Read the rest of this entry »
Loss of one parliamentary and five state assembly seats on Nomination Day will fire up the spirit of Pakatan Harapan leaders, members and supporters to work trebly hard to effect change of the Prime Minister, governments and policies on May 9, 2018
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, Pakatan Harapan on Monday, 30 April 2018
The loss of one parliamentary seat and five state assembly seats on Nomination Day, instead of acting like a wet rag to dampen the enthusiasm of Pakatan Harapan leaders, members and supporters, will have the opposite effect of firing up their spirit and determination to work trebly hard to effect change of the Prime Minister, governments and policies on May 9, 2018.
Pakatan Harapan does not deny that the loss of one parliamentary and five state assembly seats on Nomination Day is a setback, but this is not the result of the choice of the voters but further example of the wholesale cheating, underhand and undemocratic tactics of the Najib administration to “steal” the 14th General Election so that he could stay in power as Prime Minister.
But Najib is very wrong if he thinks that the loss of one parliamentary and five state assembly seats will break the spirit of Pakatan Harapan for political change on May 9.
On the contrary, it will be regarded as a further but costly reminder that the stakes on May 9, 2018 are very high, that this golden opportunity for the first political change in the country in 61 years must not be wasted, for such opportunity is not going to return for a very long time.

A Pakatan Harapan Malaysian Government will give priority to restore justice, freedom, rule of law and a clean and good government to Malaysians
If the Filipinos can change their President on May 9 two years ago, and the South Koreans can change their President on May 9 last year, the question is whether Malaysians can change their Prime Minister on May 9 this year.
If there is a change of Prime Minister on May 9, Datuk Seri Najib Razak will be the new Parliamentary Opposition Leader if he survives in UMNO, and Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad will be the seventh Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Dr. Wan Azizah Wan Ismail the new Deputy Prime Minister creating history as the first Malaysian woman to hold this high post, while Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will be set to become the eighth Prime Minister of Malaysia.
This will herald a political change and a re-set of nation-building policies and directions in Malaysia, and Malaysians will again dare to dream and work to achieve the Malaysian Dream to make Malaysia a world top-class nation instead of as at present, hurtling in the trajectory towards a failed, rogue and kleptocratic state.
A top priority if Pakatan Harapan forms the new Malaysian Government on May 9 will be to set up a high-powered commission to find ways to get the million-odd best and brightest Malaysians who form the Malaysian Diaspora all over the world to return to rebuild Malaysia; and secondly, to ensure that the new generation of Malaysians do not have to emigrate overseas so that their capabilities and talents can find fulfilment.

Pakatan Harapan has sent the brightest of the new generation of Malaysians to Johor to transform the state into a frontier for political change in Malaysia
Pakatan Harapan has sent the brightest of the new generation of Malaysians in the 14th General Election to Johore to transform the state into a frontier for political change in Malaysia.
In the 13th General Election, DAP sent party strategist Liew Chin Tong from Bukit Bendera in Penang to Kluang and DAP woman leader Teo Nie Ching from Serdang in Selangor to Kulai.
For the 14th General Election, Yeo Bee Yin, who won the Selangor State Assembly seat of Damansara with a majority of over 30,000 votes in 2013, have left a very safe seat to contest in a risky Bakri parliamentary seat in Johore.
Pakatan Harapan has sent a Malay intellectual, Dr. Maszlee Malik from the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) to contest for the parliamentary seat of Simpang Renggam and three-time winner of Asia’s Best Speaker Award, Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, 25, to contest in the parliamentary seat of Muar.
PKR has sent its youth leader, Akmal Nasir, INVOKE Chief Resource Office and Executive Director of National Oversight and Whistleblowers (NOW) to contest the Johor Bahru parliamentary seat while Amanah has sent its national organizing secretary and long-time champion of the rights of Felda settlers, Suhaizan Kaiat to contest the Kukup state assembly seat.

Malaysians must not be disheartened by loss of one parliamentary and five state assembly seats during Nomination Day yesterday but must work harder for People’s Power to triumph over Najib and UMNO/BN
I was confronted by a concerned Malaysian during the Johor Jaya walkabout asking what to do now that Pakatan Harapan has lost one parliamentary and five state assembly seats during Nomination Day yesterday.
I am sure that this is a question many Malaysians are asking, and my answer is that we should not be disheartened but must treble our efforts to bring about political change in Malaysia and demonstrate that People’s Power can triump over the chicaneries and trickeries of Datuk Seri Najib Razak and UMNO/BN.
What has happened so far has only validated what the international magazine Economist reported recently that Najib Razak is a thief and would steal the 2018 general election.
The constituency redelineation, which is the worst gerrymandering in the nation’s 61-year history, together with the 3Ms of money, mass media and (government) machinery, the biggest theft of elections is set to take place on May 9, 2018.
This is why we must change the rules of the game, so that these calculations of these UMNO/BN strategists could be proven wrong. Read the rest of this entry »
Although Pakatan Harapan has lost one seat on Nomination Day, efforts must be trebled nation-wide to reach the target of winning 119 parliamentary seats on Polling Day on May 9
Ten day ago, I said that Pakatan Harapan should set a target of winning 120 of the total of 222 parliamentary seats to earn the clear and unmistakable right to form the new Malaysian Government in Putrajaya which would show that a decisive majority of Malaysians no longer a kleptocratic and corrupt Barisan Nasional.
I said that this target is achievable especially if a Malaysian tsunami sweeps across the nation bringing together Malays, Chinese, Indians, Ibans, Kadazans and others to vote against the BN and to strongly support Pakatan Harapan to form the next federal government.
To achieve this target of winning 120 parliamentary seats, Pakatan Harapan must defend all 89 parliament seats won by the opposition in the 13th General Election in 2013 and win another 31 out of the 56 marginal BN parliament seats in Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak.

Set Malaysia Free – let this be the objective of all Malaysians in the 14GE
This is my 12th General Elections participation, but for the first time in five decades, I will not be using the Rocket symbol. Instead I will be using the Pakatan Harapan common logo of the PKR’s blue-eyes.
This is not an easy decision for DAP leaders to make, as for more than half a century, DAP leaders and members have fought and suffered in the name of the Rocket, endured the ups and downs, the trials and tribulations of staying true to the DAP objectives and principles for Malaysian unity, harmony, integrity, justice, freedom and the rule of law.
I was detained twice under the Internal Security Act, prosecuted in court and underwent various harassments as a DAP Member of Parliament; the DAP Secretary-General and Penang Chief Minister; Lim Guan Eng was detained under the ISA, disqualified as MP for Kota Melaka and went to Kajang Prison for a year for defending the honour and dignity of an underaged Malay girl and was disenfranchised and unable to cast his vote or stand for elective office for five years; many DAP leaders were jailed, prosecuted in court and their livelihood harassed in the past five decades because DAP leaders had remained true and loyal to DAP objectives and principles.
All this we did under the Roket symbol – so it was a most painful and heart-wrenching decision for DAP leaders to take not to use the Rocket symbol.
But extraordinary times call all for extraordinary responses – and the 14th General Election is indeed an extraordinary occasion. Read the rest of this entry »
Johor State Government is now winnable for the first time in 61 years
One new feature of the 14th General Election is presented by Johore, where for the first time in 61 years, Johor State Government is winnable for the Opposition.
I have just seen the Malaysiakini report entitldd “Survey: Harapan, BN neck and neck in Johor popular vote” which fortifies this possibility.
The Malaysiakini report reads:
“Pakatan Harapan and BN are neck and neck in terms of popular vote in Johor, which is the birthplace of Umno, with less than two weeks to go before the May 9 general election.
“According to a survey by Merdeka Centre, the popular vote is 47 percent for BN and 42 percent for Harapan while PAS is at 11 percent.
“According to a racial breakdown, 60.9 percent Malays, 22.4 percent Chinese and 64.3 percent Indians are supporting BN as of April 9.
“For Harapan, 19.4 percent Malay, 77.6 percent Chinese and 32.7 percent Indian are supporting the opposition coalition.
“PAS has 19.2 percent Malay and three percent Indian support while Chinese backing is negligible for the Islamist party.
“However, for Harapan to have a realistic chance of capturing Nusajaya, it needs to win substantially more support than BN to overcome gerrymandering.
“Specifically, Harapan needs 10 percent more Malay support and five percent more Chinese support, according to Merdeka Centre executive director Ibrahim Suffian.
“’At this moment, they (Harapan) are not here yet.
“’You can see BN support among Malays in Johor have dropped but those who are not voting BN appear to be split between PAS and Harapan,’ he pointed out.”
“Merdeka Centre estimated that around 20.9 percent of Malay voters had moved from BN since the last general election.
“However, BN is still ahead in Johor despite suffering the worst drop in Malay support compared to other states due to a high base effect from the last general election.
“’If Harapan really wants to win, they need 10 percent more Malay support and up the Chinese support in order to cross the line and they have less than 14 days left to get things done,’ said Ibrahim.”
Be that as it may, the Merdeka Centre report shows that the Pakatan Harapan plan to replace UMNO/BN as the Johor State Government in Nusajaya is do-able; and even more important, that Johore can contribute a quota of 14 Parliamentary seats to the target of winning 120 Parliamentary seats in the 14GE to form the Malaysian Government in Putrajaya is within the realm of possibility on May 9 2018.
(Speech at the opening of the Cha’ah Election Centre in Labis Parliamentary seat, Johor on Friday, 27th April 2018 at 6.30 pm)
Despite adverse Merdeka Centre findings, 15 million Malaysian voters can create a Brexit-like upset and replace UMNO/BN with Pakatan Harapan Federal Government in 14GE
Yesterday, pollster Merdeka Centre reported that Barisan Nasioal has recovered from its low approval ratings previously caused by the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and the revelation of the 1MDB affair.
Its programme director Ibrahim Suffian presented data that showed sentiments towards the incumbent federal government had improved, with approval ratings increasing to 39 percent generally and to 47 percent among the Malays.
Ibahim said this was enough for BN to extend its hold on power in the 14th general election (GE14).
His graphs showed that back in 2015 when the GST was introduced and the 1MDB affair first came to light, general satisfaction with the direction of the country dropped drastically to 16 percent.
I do not accept fully the Merdeka Centre findings but it is a salutary reminder that the battle to defeat UMNO/BN in the 14th General Election is not going to be an easy one, although it is not impossible. Read the rest of this entry »
Challenge to the 730-odd BN parliamentary and state assembly candidates to declare before Saturday’s nomination of 14GE candidates that they want full investigations into the 1MDB causing Malaysia to become a global kleptocracy and a rogue democracy
Posted by Kit in Election, Elections, Financial Scandals on Friday, 27 April 2018
Nomination for parliamentary and state assembly candidates for the 14th General Elections is 36 hours away on Saturday.
There are 222 parliamentary constituencies and some 500 State Assembly Constituencies in the states in Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah up for election on May 9, 2017.
I want to challenge the 730-odd BN parliamentary and state assembly candidates to declare before Nomination on Saturday, April 28, 2018 at 9 a.m. that they want full investigations into the international 1MDB money-laundering scandal, which spans the globe, causing Malaysia the ignominy, infamy and iniquity of a global kleptocray.
