      Thanks to Tun M, he knows how to get the gravy train flowing for his own sake.

      And he’s a hero for bashing Najib. Malaysians mudah lupa.

        Kat negeri China dan India tak macam tu. Subcon akan cuba sedaya upaya betulkan dan membaiki proses dan kualiti produk. Di negara-negara sana tidak ada rumah urut atau manusia yang makan duit. Semua baik baik belaka. Tak macam ‘Bolehland’. Saya nak berhijah ke negara China. Aman damai, macam syurga di dunia agaknya.
