  1. Will Abu Kassim end up the same as Ali Baba’s brother Kassim Baba? Cut up into 4 pieces and nailed to the door?

    new macc slogan– 1macc ;; Saksi didahulukan ;; Terjun sekarang

  2. ///It has just been revealed that what the Deputy Minister of Defence told Parliament back in 2006 was a lie. He said that the French and not the Malaysian government paid the half a billion Ringgit commission on the submarines. Now it has been proven that the commission was actually paid by the Malaysian government.///–http://www.malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/no-holds-barred/39511-about-sex-and-bribery.

    Najib offered to set up a RCI to investigate the Carcosa sex tape. It means that the government sees no problem with allocating resources for that inquiry. There is now a larger issue where the deputy minister of defense is said to be lying to the parliament regarding the payment of 100 million Euros as commission. That could involve corruption of that magnitude, and the involvement of the Ministry of Defense headed by Najib at that time in 2002 was implied. The French newspaper reported the case, and until a RCI proved them wrong, Najib cannot have a clean bill against corruption. The honesty bill of Najib is clearly more important than finding out who that Malaysian, if he was, was involved in retail sex. So Najib should not run away from setting up a RCI to answer how the 100 million Euros were paid, and whether the Deputy Minister should be taken to task if he lied to parliament.

    The RCI on TBH could be asked to take on an addition case of Ahmad Sarbarni Mohamed, who was most probably silenced through murder. It would appear that MACC officials too need protection if MACC chooses to serve out its functions. The government might have to declare amnesty to those who choose to return their excess wealth not in keeping with their official earnings and opt for early retirement. Otherwise more corpses will appear around MACC buildings.

  3. ///Otherwise more corpses will appear around MACC buildings///

    Then MACC buildings/precincts will rank third after San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge and Aokigahara (also known as the Sea of Trees, at the north west base of Mount Fuji in Japan) as the world’s most preferred destinations for committing suicides.

  4. All Sarawak people,You all need to be responsible for yr own future……Its time to vote and decide for yr future generation…either die with BN langsong no hope ,hopeless or Reform Malaysia with PR….Ubah! x3
    Get rid of Taib Madmud PBB SUPP Dynasty .

  6. Yes. Roll on people. Make this a new begining for malaysia. Restart merdeka once again. Do it our way. Forget about umno and barisan. They are useless, arrogant, wasteful, abusive, corrupt, incompetent, oppressive and murderous.

    Stop them! Stop those Tuan Rempit McBullys. Stop them from ever treating the rest of us as Hamba deBullys.

  7. I see the light in the dark now.

    There is a mission for Sarawak people and the opposition parties in Sarawak elections.

    A mission to free Malaysians from the corrupted politicians by the law they are criminals.

    A mission for you to standup to fight the corruption devils to admin Malaysia.

    A mission for Christians to free Malaysians from the corrupted devil hands.

    A mission to free yourself and children from the corruption devils.

    Yes, STANDUP TALL and fight the devil minded politicians.

    Make us Malaysians be proud of you fight like a God beloved children with the devils.

  8. To think just about a week ago, some soldiers were reported to have killed a hornbill and photographed themselves with their trophy. They were quickly suspended I think.

    Its really time for Sarawak to take the lead and show the way for the rest of the country to follow.

    Sound the war-drums, summon the tribes and troops. Raise the colours. Its time for Afri.. sorry Sarawak!!!

  9. Taib is so desperate that he is resorting to witchcraft and bomohs, a practise forbidden by Islam. Despite his evil ways, Allah is above all of this and He will make a way for the truth to prevail. Godspeed PR!

  10. I would like to strongly suggest that the Moderator of this forum post clearly the rules for posting as the automatic filter is really getting to the nerves. Please make this a better organized and managed forum!

  11. What ‘Transformasi’?

    Sure, Sure, Of course corrupted politicians want ‘Transformasi’ very very much

    Caused they need more big public gov projects in order to make the corrupted money from the Malaysian Tax money (we look at billions).

    If the gov core of admin is full of corrupted politicians the more money for development the more money being stolen guarantee failure.

    So standup change the gov core of admin completely with a new clean core of admin first.

    Then you talk about ‘Transformasi’

    Go and VOTE FOR CHANGE tell everyone don’t forget

  12. Sarawakians, be smart BOSSES n proactive in UBAH, vote 4 PR candidates, HAPUSKAN BN n independents, including Dom Ng d liar who broke his promise 2 PKR
    UNITY is strength – vote 4 PR candidates 2 RULE Sarawak, UBAH
    Do NOT WASTE dis golden opportunity – another 5 years of BN’s rule, mati lor

  13. For those who r campaigning in S’wak, pls tell voters:

    FORGET Pekmo n Georgie, do NOT VOTE 4 them cos these 2 74-yrs-old will hv NO MORE ENERGY left after they hv enjoyed their young seksi wives
    Their sumptuous wives r followers of Perkosa I Bra Him n they will try their best 2 fulfil their husbands’ desires, demands n fantasies, cos they r afraid Pekmo n Georgie hv extramarital seks n buang them (just like what Pekmo’s son did 2 his wife)
    Even with viagra n tongkat Ali, both Pekmo n Georgie will b so spent fr vigorous pelvic motion dat they just cannot function properly (except as seks machine 2 Barba rella)
    Do NOT VOTE 4 them so dat they can stay at home n continue 2 bonk, bonk, bonk wives

  14. need to raise all the flags together as one!
    can only see “rocket” flag flying from a pix in the web news. i do believe, “pkr” need a helping hand from “dap” to move forward. can see some comments favor “dap” more than “pkr” to lead their constituency. correct me if i am wrong. most sarawakians are the conservative type. and majority of them are christian. to them, “pkr” is like another “umno”. more over, it is a new party that came barging in to take as many seats as possible. can say, commentators are not comfortable with it. for pas, it is not a problem since they are at the right place. funny thing, from the comments, they prefer “pkr” more. probably because of more moderate thinking.

  15. If the state gomen of Sarawak denies entry of Chin Huat a non-partisan party then it is a STUPID move, a move of desperation! maybe the whole bunch of them is ! The use of this immigration ruling is just to prevent ‘ new ideas’ entering the State! but the sad thing is they allow UMNO brand of political ideas to enter! To the current political leadership: just admit it; your time is up!

  16. To each and every BN liberal voter
    PR depends on the People’s Power
    Be aware of BN evil intentions
    Using dirty politics to win elections

    Unite with PR and be wise
    Knowing the truth from the lies
    Help PR to reach out to the ignorant
    Especially the rural inhabitants

    With PR let us move forward
    Helping PR to receive its reward
    To be voted in to save Sarawak and nation
    Delegating the BN to the opposition
