My Comments :
Here is a quick video of French president Macron meeting Chinese President Xi Jinping in
Guangzhou just a few days ago.
This meeting should be made a case study of body language.
Do watch the short video first.

You can observe Macron sitting upright and at the edge of the chair, out of obvious
deference and regard for Xi Jinping. Or it could be a Mat Salleh ploy to appease the native
chief.
This is 2023 so the usual Mat Salleh gifts of glass beads and metal trinkets for the native
chief are missing. Because the Chinese now manufacture all the world's trinkets.
1517: The Portuguese merchant Fernão Pires de Andrade establishes the first European
trade post on the Chinese coast at Tamão in the Zhujiang (Pearl River) estuary and then in
Canton (Guangzhou).
Despite the passage of 500 years the gwailohs still come with their gunboats and cannons.
Havent they learned anything?
But the person to watch closely in the video here is Xi Jinping. Certainly the Lord of the
Manor. This meeting was held in some glorious botanical garden in Guangzhou that is
possibly older than French civilisation itself and perhaps half the size of Paris or something.
China's GDP is close to US$14.0 TRILLION while the French GDP is less than US$3.0 TRILLION.
The Chinese economy is FIVE times larger than France. And you can see the extreme
confidence of President Xi Jinping as he entertains the gwailoh pirate cum haberdasher.
biggest deal was Airbus extra assembly line in Tianjin to double capacity
France's EDF renewed 2017 agreement with Chinese nuclear leader CGN
Suez won contract for seawater desalination project
L’Oréal struck 3-year deal with Alibaba
Perhaps Macron has come to his senses that it is easier to sell nuclear reactors and Airbus
jets than using gunboats to force the Chinese to buy opium. Nowadays the Chinese also
make and sell gunboats.

The Driving Force Behind PN
My view is Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin should still drop the Abah brand and present a more
uptodate, lets catch up with the future image. Thats my view. Having said that, here is a
quick discussion between these two young folks (yes obviously they are supporters of TSMY)
which cannot be ignored.
This is not a case of whether you agree, disagree, like or dislike TSMY. That is up to you.
Remember this is still a free country. We must respect freedom of speech. Let Lim Guan Eng
say what he wants. Let Hadi Awang say what he wants. Let Ramasamy in Penang say what
he wants. Then you decide who you agree or disagree with. This video is very brief.

Those 59 seats won by the PAS have little to do with the PAS or Hadi Awang. The Malays
voted for Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and the Perikatan Nasional.
As the speakers in the video say, more than half the Malay voters did not even know Pas
was part of Perikatan Nasional. And surveys have proven that plenty Malays voted for the
PN not because of Pas. Because of TSMY.
And indeed TSMY is the pacu or power-drive behind the PN.
Whether you agree, disagree, like it or not is besides the point. This is the reality on the
ground with the Malay voters.
This is where the Pas boys themselves and also many non-Malays are confused. Having won
59 seats and being the largest party in Parliament the Pas boys think they have suddenly
'come of age'. They are suddenly the 'happening' people. Grossly mistaken.
In 2018, the year when the UMNO/BN lost political power after 63 years in control, when
they were at their weakest until that time, the Pas fellows won only 18 Parliamentary seats.
The year when UMNO/BN was thrown out of power after 63 years the Pas turned in one of
their weakest election performances ever.
Just four years later in 2022 the Pas was still led by Hadi, now more nutty than ever. The
party had made absolutely no changes in its trash-eology. Yet suddenly they were able to
win 59 Parliamentary seats?
From 18 seats in 2018 to 59 seats in 2022. What made the difference? The answer is the PN
and TSMY. The Malays voted for Perikatan Nasional and Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
This is a fact. Agree, disagree, like it or not it is up to you.
The overwhelming support was for these images:
As a leader and to his credit TSMY has been consistent in his stand.
And the nasties are really frightened of TSMY.
For example I find those corruption charges against him quite intriguing. Here they are
accusing him of being corrupt. But they could not find anything on him from his 40+ years in
politics and public service while in UMNO/BN.
Instead they have found fault with a political donation that was paid into his Bersatu party's
account.
Jangan lupa - that lebai fellow received RM90 million stolen 1MDB money but he was
cleared of corruption because that was deemed a political donation. In Malaysia we have
absolutely ZERO laws to monitor or govern political donations. THERE ARE NO LAWS
AGAINST POLITICAL DONATIONS.
(The other fellow said he received RM2.6 Billion from a non-existent Saudi prince but paid
into his personal account).
So how folks? The Malay voters are not unaware of all this. At the end of the day it is how
the Malay voters cast their ballots that will determine the future on the Peninsula. (Sabah
and Sarawak are no more in this equation).
My final point is - Pas is no more an asset for Bersatu or for the PN.
If Bersatu gets rid of Pas (and let Pas join Pakatan Harapan) it would be much better for
Perikatan Nasional and Bersatu.
Bersatu and the PN has to project a more cosmopolitan approach and be totally inclusive.
The country has changed. The Malay voter has changed.
Get rid of Pas. Get moving.
And talk to the DAP.

37 Minute Video. Must Watch. The World Situation.

Folks this is Colonel Douglas Macgregor, retired and combat experienced army veteran,
member of the Donald Trump administration and most important of all a man who talks
sense. If this interests you then do find 37 minutes of your time to listen to what he is
saying.
This is an accurate (and therefore financially and economically useful) observation of what is
going on between the United States and the rest of the world (from Europe to China and
Asia).
The western media are not only reporting fake news but they are also manufacturing fake
news - which has a huge financial and economic cost to whoever depends on the western
media to be informed about matters or to make some decision or other.

KUA KIA SOONG'S KANTOI KNOCKOUT POINT : Why didn’t you report to MACC ?
activist' s point for claim against Dr M
Kua Kia Soong said if have evidence why no MACC report
zero-tolerance towards corruption??
no report to MACC all this time - glaring omission
why didn’t you report to MACC
is hesitancy from “own skeletons in Mahathir’s closet”
said would furnish proof of claim against Dr M
Dr M sent letter of demand
My Comments:

First of all I totally disagree that Dr M sent a letter of demand. You are politicians. Politicians
throw mud at each other all the time. Sending legal notices is just too ridiculous.

Just deny what he said. Ask for proof. No need legal notices.

For example this point by Kua Kia Soong is spot on.

Since you have declared zero-tolerance towards corruption (but Najib may possibly get
pardoned) then why have you not made a report to the MACC yet?

Or is it because the evidence is still being collected in a rattan basket?

This point by Kua Kia Soong is spot on
is hesitancy from “own skeletons in Mahathir’s closet”
What if all the old kira-kira from the Buku Tiga Lima comes out in Court?

How do I see this concluding? Out of court settlement?

Pardon Issue Exposes Hypocrisy Of So Called Reformists

Petition on pardon: 140,000 oppose, 9,400 support

we must not tolerate corruption B..sih said in the petition
"I will be part of Pardons Board panel to decide" (says your hero)

My Comments :
Please allow me to say it again - I TOLD YOU SO!!
Ever since November 24, 2022 the country has taken another plunge into the depths of
darkness. This time the plunge is going to get deeper. The era of 1MDB etc are going to look
like child's play.
We saw it from Day 1 and it has been getting worse ever since.
1. It kicked off with the 'coalition' with the most corrupted UMNO. The so called reformists
(that includes you) shouted hooray.
2. Then that corrupt fellow with just under 50 corruption charges was appointed to the No.
2 job. The so called reformists (that includes you) went a little quiet.
3. Next came breaking the "previously vehemently opposed" idea about holding more than
one cabinet portfolio. Yes it was bad but only when YB Kajang did it. Its ok if my hero does
the same thing. This time the so called reformists (that includes you) did start to widen
your eyes.
4. Then it picked up speed. Next up he broke the 'previously vehemently opposed' idea
about 'political appointees'. He began making his own political appointments. There are
already many political appointees. There is one almost every week. This time the so called
reformists (that includes you) began scratching your heads.
5. Then after that he broke another bigger rule - nepotism. He broke the previously
vehemently opposed idea about nepotism. His own family has been appointed to the
office. This time the so called reformists (that includes you) began scratching your arse.
6. And now he is saying brazenly that "I will be part of Pardons Board panel to decide". This
means he is for the idea. For a certainty he is not against the idea. Because if he opposes the
idea in his official capacity (which he can), the whole Pardons process will stop dead. But
instead it is going through.
So to those 140,000 fools who wasted your time to oppose the "Petition on pardon:
140,000 oppose, 9,400 support" please, please, please go and eat sh-t and die. Those 9,400
who support the Pardon idea have your reformasi hero on their side. You have been
overruled.
All you so called reformists (that includes you) can please stick your finger into your a_ _e.
And all this is happening in just four months. So what is going to happen in the next four
months?
People now suggest that the whole thing was already pre-planned, signed and sealed
BEFORE Nov 24th. That is why YB Kajang is so confident. That is why he does not need my
advice. They had already worked out a 'Get Out Of Jail Free' card.

In just four months the country is accelerating into doom and darkness. And it is YOUR
FAULT.
I BLAME IT SQUARELY ON ALL YOU SO CALLED REFORMIST IDIOTS. IT IS YOUR FOOLISHNESS
THAT SUPPORTED AND SUSTAINED THIS FELLOW TO WHAT HE IS DOING TODAY. SHAME ON
YOU.
