  1. 1. What the public should know is what were the rest of the conditions apart from the payment of the MR50 mil.
    2. Pua has a good point regarding a thorough audit of where the donations came from to ensure it was not laundered money.
    3. Importantly, it shows the moral standards of Malaysians when Malaysians chip in and cheer on a convicted criminal that basically tarnished Malaysia's reputation.
    4. In any case, the fact that everytime Najib appears in court dressed as if he just stepped out of GQ magazine and not in prison garb already shows the double standatds.
    5. But then, Malaysia Boleh!
