I have to go somewhere now, bread & butter issue, but I'll say this before I go. Much as I dislike Guan Eng, I've never believed he's corrupt nor so stupid as to indulge in corruption in a Malay political environment.
More when I return, wakakaka, so hang on there, Chye-Chye.
i dun know, its not abt chinese or malay govt, but rather one hv power or no, especially when one believe he is infallable.
ReplyDeleteregardless, its a backdoor govt persecution to silence those that believe najib is guilty, or not, kill 2 birds.
A case of repeated history that Chinese M'sian like him can't or have forgotten!
ReplyDelete治国之道，在以枭雄之大治。当机立断，斩草除根。
When u have the opportunity to eliminate yr opponents, don't be kind-hearted. Do what's necessary, swift & fast! Otherwise, u would face the same when u r down!
Perhaps, too much of turning the other cheek as promoted by his faith!
No need to explain KT, we understand.
ReplyDeleteThe day after Guanee is arrested you have to dash out to withdraw (I mean buy) butter for your bread...the usual things, before the bank closes today (Friday), shopping etc.....ha ha ha...enjoy....
Don't forget to stop by the pet shop and pickup some dedak (I mean chook feed)...ha ha ha...
DeleteAfter two Punic wars that Rome emerged victorious against Carthage, the Roman leader Cato was said to end every speech with the words "Carthage must be destroyed".
ReplyDeleteSimilarly , for the Race and Religion supremacists, Lim Guan Eng must be destroyed. Its either with Case No. 1 or Case No. 2 or Case No. 3.
They may well manufacture Case No. 4 if that still doesn't work.
That is why MACC arrested Betty too. They don't want another Wan Azizah. Betty is no political novice. She is a three term Melaka assemblyman.
DeleteThe complication that Lim Guan Eng faces in the Tunnel case is that, I believe, there really was corruption involved. Just not Lim Guan Eng.
ReplyDeleteSomebody , correctly or falsely presented to the Tunnel promoters that they had the right connections to expedite the necessary Federal level approvals, for an appropriate "consideration" or lubricating oil.
Some lucre did change hands...therein lies the corruption case.
I do not see any evidence that Lim Guan Eng was actually involved, but it is for the Prosecution to prove the case.
Can I buy the tunnel project for half its price!
ReplyDeleteCan this guy Datuk Zarul even be trusted....? Just over a year ago he made a statement that there was no corruption. Now he says opposite.
ReplyDeleteDatuk Zarul is reportedly an UMNO member so hmmmm...would Guanee solicit a bribe, 10% of profits, to be payable in 10 years (alleged solicitation in 2015, project completion 2025). With no black and white. Just verbal.
KT will undoubtedly become an expert on this undersea tunnel project scandal, just like Toonsie's 30-40 year old scandals. The only scandal to escape KT's understanding is 1MDB...and maybe PKFZ....ha ha ha....

RPK’s undersea tunnel graft allegations pure fiction, says project contractor
Monday, 04 Mar 2019
By Opalyn Mok
GEORGE TOWN, March 4 — The Penang Undersea Tunnel graft allegations by controversial blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin is “pure fiction” and defamatory, the project contractor said today.
Consortium Zenith Construction Sdn Bhd Senior Executive Director Datuk Zarul Ahmad Mohd Zulkifli said the allegations in the blog were clearly concocted to deceive the public and defame his company and the Penang state government.
“Even Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad had said it is a lie,” he said in a statement today to respond to the series of posts by the political blogger over the RM6.3 billion undersea tunnel and paired road projects.
Zarul said the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) conducted an extensive investigation into the project in which he was remanded for 11 days.
“Besides me, my entire company was called for questioning, spending a total of 40 days in and out of the MACC office, cooperating with every single aspect that was being investigated,”
“This includes close scrutiny of our accounts,” he said.
He said the MACC had even hired external consultants to see if the company was fair in our pricing.
“And clearly, given the magnitude of our project, our prices were fair, justified and above board,” he said.
He reminded “all sceptics out there” that the case was investigated and completed before the change of government had taken place.
“There was plenty of time to level charges against me or anyone else alleged to receive bribes,” he said.
Zarul said the company’s goal now is to put all of their resources into the project so that it could kick off as soon as possible.
“It has been very challenging for me over the years to counter every single allegation, but yet the truth has always prevailed.
“I pray that God gives me the strength to persevere and complete the job I am tasked to do,” he added.
Over the past week, Raja Petra alleged in several posts that several Penang state exco was implicated in MACC investigations into the undersea tunnel and three paired roads project.
Dr Mahathir recently responded by calling the blogger a liar.
Penang Deputy Chief Minister II P.Ramasamy has said he is ready to cooperate with the MACC in any further investigations into the project.
Consortium Zenith is the project delivery partner for the massive infrastructure project and Package Two of the project, a paired road to connect Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway to Air Itam, is expected to start on August 31.
Package One, in two phases, is to connect Tanjung Bungah to Batu Ferringhi and to connect Batu Ferringhi to Teluk Bahang.
The third package is to connect Gurney Drive to Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway.
