     Will they actually lock "Bossku" up and throw away the key?

Kuala Lumpur Dec 7 2021 

If tomorrow's (Dec 8 2021) ruling on the RM42 million fund scandal goes against "Bossku" or also known as former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, he can still stay out of jail as he will surely appeal against the verdict.


This could result in the case being in limbo and the process could take years, allowing "Bossku" to take part in the General Election that must be held by 2023.


"Bossku" had denied all wrongdoings in the misappropriation of the RM42 million transferred from SRC International, a subsidiary of 1Malaysia Development Berhad or 1MDB, to his personal accounts.


Najib claims that he was misled by financial advisers - pointing his finger towards fugitive financier Jho Low when the former was given the lead responsibility in administrating the country from 2009 to 2018.


Jho Low has been charged in both the US and Malaysia, but maintains his innocence in being involved in the largest scam ever recorded in Malaysian history.

In Malaysia, the only notable politician that was sent to prison (and twice for that matter) was former Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar was convicted for corruption in 1999 and for sodomy in 2000 during Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed's tenure as Prime Minister.

The former DPM was imprisoned until 2004 when his conviction was overturned.

In 2015, Anwar was imprisoned again for five years, this time during Najib's administration, after he was found guilty of sodomising his former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan.

The conviction disqualified Anwar from political office and contesting the 2018 General Election.

Whether the same fate would befall on "Bossku" remains to be seen as the term 'Malaysia Boleh' (coined by Tun M) seem to echo on with reckless abandon following the "release" of other politicians who were also charged with corruption and bribery cases.

SPORTS - Chelsea sweat it out ahead of Champions League draw

Chelsea sweat it out ahead of draw Switzerland Dec 13 2021 The reigning Champions League Cup holders Chelsea are the only one among the four English Premier League sides in the competition who will be in pot two when the draw for the round of 16 is made tonight. The Blues shot themselves in the foot by failing to top their group after conceding a late equaliser during the 3-3 draw with Zenit St. Petersburg in their final group match last week. The unexpected two dropped points allowed Juventus to pip Chelsea to the top spot in the group. As the runners-up, the London-based club will now have to face one of the group champions in the next round. As teams are not allowed to face opposition from the same country or those they played against during the group stage, Chelsea will not be drawn against the Manchester clubs, Liverpool or Juventus. This leaves them with just four potential opponents – Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Ajax Amsterdam or Lille. To be drawn against the current leaders of...

WORLD - Troubled Waters: China's Claim Over South China Sea

  JAN 9 2022 The South China Sea (SCS) dispute, which began in the 1950s and instigated by China, is still unresolved until today. China’s reason for claiming sovereignty over the SCS is mainly fuelled by the region’s estimated 11 billion barrels of untapped oil and 190 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. The affected ASEAN member-states of the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia, Taiwan and Vietnam must join forces to confront China and put an end to their bullying tactics. These countries share an economic interdependence with China over the last 25 years, which has become the much needed support system for both economic development and bilateral relationship. However, constant trespassing by China via sea and air has resulted in resentment and anger among these ASEAN nations. If there is no end to the territorial intrusions and claims, it will affect future economic dealings and bilateral relationship between China and the bloc. In the Philippines, i...
