The corruption of Mahathir
SOROS REPLY TO MAHATHIR
adapted from Bangkok Post
I have always said Dr Mahathir is a menace to his own people. Now only
you can see the effects of his foolishness when the ringgit has halved
its value overnight and your economy goes kaput. Single handedly you
have caused hard****p to millions of your own people. You have built
useless mega projects at tremendous cost to the country.
The telecoms tower in Kuala Lumpur and the highest building in the
world show how stupid you are. Not only does it cause massive traffic
jam, it has totally no purpose. If you need high ground for telecoms
antennae a nearby mountain is there for free. This tower has no
purpose from the ground up to 300 metres. The satellites make this
totally unnecessary.
A fool and his money are soon parted. The only thing is you are the
fool and the money belongs to Malaysians. You make 20% in evey
project, you have real estate in Japan and billions of shares
corruptly acquired. Your 3 sons are worth 8 billion US$. Where do they
get this money? Of course, corruption. You are known as the Marcos of
Malaysia, having enriched yourself to the tune of billions. You dare
to shed crocodile tears during UMNO delegates meeting about the ills
of corruption. Yet you are the most corrupt of all the prime ministers
before you. A thief is crying thief and hopes people look the other
way. Who dares to say anything when the chief is caught with his hands
in the candy jar?
You said wisdom is not the monopoly of the West. So is foolishness.
You have more foolishness than most people would believe. Billions are
used to build two high rise Petronas buildings that benefit nobody. It
now stand tall, a symbol of stupidity and irresponsibility. Instead
they just add on to traffic jam. What is this reclamation of 10
islands off Kedah? Totally absurb and stupid. Of course your benefit
is 20%. And the bridge across from Malacca to Sumatra across
international waters? Why not build a bridge to the moon? I am sure
you still can get your 20%.
You called me a Moron. How can a Moron make so much money. By allowing
short selling and borrowing millions of shares from your banks we fund
managers made millions out of your inexperience and poor regulations.
You lose all Malaysians money, therefore you are the Moron. Now you
know too late and start crying over split milk. In Australia you are
known as the recalcitrant ego maniac; in UK the corrupt bastard
because of your stupid purchase of our movie studio and the 290
million ringgit Lotus racing car plant and the shady Pergau dam loans
from the UK. They are useless to us and you still want to buy them.
What about buying British reject submarines through your agent, of
course. The agent/ broker is designed to make millions out of
Malaysian government. Your purchase of our battle****ps is at least 50%
more than others are paying. Your purchase of 9 hospitals from UK
lock, stock and barrel does not sup****t your local architects or your
industry and the British send you obsolete medical equipment.
The design is atrocious, one end to the other is half a kilometer and
there is no CT-scan, an absolute necessity. In the Uk your face
appears in no less than 17 newspapers as a corrupt dictator. In
Malaysia you are known as the (IBM) International Big Mouth. In Japan
they call him the =92smallest one=92 (brain size). In Pacific island the
Santa Claus (giving advice left and right). In south America they call
him the parrot (he talks a lot but does not know what it is about). In
Manila the living Marcos.
In Malaysia they are spending millions to lure tourists and you talk
rubbish scaring every foreigner away. =93When he is dumb he is doubted a
fool, when he opens his mouth it removes all doubt.=94
While I agree the West does not have the monopoly to wisdom, your
actions are not the wisest either. Your EAEC has totally no sup****t
even in Asean. Your South-South dialogue mets with the same fate and
what is this I hear of the Bridge from Malaysia to Indonesia covering
20 miles across International ****pping lanes? How crazy can one get?
Even the Japanese don=92t have the money. This world=92s stupidity seems
to be concentrated in one man=92s mind - yours.
The multimedia super corridor - MSC -. Well in USA its most stupid
concept because we Americans, would have thought of it light years
before. Even if it makes money, we can copy this concept can=92t we? Why
do you want to spend your hard-earned money doing questionable
projects? It will be like the Bakun project. Abandoned fund wasted and
another white elephant. I always say politicians should not be
involved in business. Your ministers are also businessmen and almost
every official is enriching himself. Look at Rafidah Aziz, selling
thousands of Approved Permit for cars each worth 20-30 thousand
Malaysian dollars. Why not your government sell them and make the
money?She has acquired millions of shares meant for bumis for free
before she agrees to list them. Look at your Selangor Chief Minister
collecting millions for approving high rise buildings from
businessman. He is worth a few billions. Unfortunately he was caught
with a few millions pocket money in Australia.Every Chief minister is
awarding useless projects to his cronies then collecting secret pay
offs on the side.The Land development Boards and the Economic
Development Boards are used to bailout any loses suffered by
politicians.The profits they keep, the loses they force the Government
bodies to absorb.How can your poor ever close the gap when every good
deal is snatched by your politicians?How can your country get out of
poverty if all the billions of corruption money is taken out of the
country?
Look at the Sarawak Chief Minister selling billions worth of timber
concessions under the table; selling every piece of state land to
businessman without tender; using his own companies to obtain
lucrative government contracts; selling approval signatures for a fee
=91you pay I approve=92. He has 8 billion US stashes overseas. Thousands
of acres of land are given to one or two companies while thousands of
poor people still live in cardboard make****ft homes; have no water and
**** into the river. Thousands of acres of land are sold to companies
for plantations while the native don=92t have even one acre to their
name. He is selling sand near the beaches to one company for earth
filling and then ask the government to spend millions to protect the
coastline when erosion occurs. He lost 300 millions of the Sarawak
government money trying to make computer chips. He has built a ****t in
Northern sarawak town in water so shallow it needs dredging every
year.
The Prime Minister built highways without tender, your cronies get the
deal and the price double. Your Langkawi air****t runway is built is
double the cost by your own company Ekran.
The Malaysian nation has lost at least 30 billions during your last 10
years of corrupt rule. One billions lost from the purchase of phantom
skyhawk war planes nobody has ever seen (are they still in the Nevada
desert USA?). 3 billion lost from the London tin scandal (you thought
you could corner the London tin market without knowing the Americans
have a stockpile! Stupidity at its best. 6 billion Perwaja steel mill
where nobody even know where the money goes, 3 billion bank Bumiputra
scandal where George Tan bribed all the bank officials to lend him the
money. 6 billion forex lost by Bank Negara (the fool and his money are
soon parted) and 6 billion to build three of the worlds tallest
buildings (built by Japanese and Koreans and furniture im****ted from
France - not Malaysia) and 1 billion lost from purchase of British
war****p including fees paid to the broker and under the table. Add the
10 billion you stole and 5 billion taken by Ministers.
In the 1997 the World Journalists meeting voted Dr Mahathir the Prime
Minister of the Decade. It sounded strange to everybody until it was
revealed those who voted against are threatened by IRD officers and
with losing their jobs. In New York the United Nations 1997 meeting,
the most corrupt Prime Minister of the decade is President Suharto and
second Dr Mahathir (Actually Dr Mahathir should take first place but
bribed the Indonesian to take honour of Number One.
There are Fifty thousand of your university students are not given
places in Malaysia but are good enough for places overseas resulting
in billion of dollars lost.The British and the Australians are
thinking how stupid.Your best students are sent overseas raising their
standards while as in most countries the best are kept in local
universities and the rejects sent overseas. A university student in
Hong Kong is much more prestigeous than any Australian counterpart.
You have been colonised by the British so long you cannot even educate
your own people. Look at Hong Kong or Singa****e less than 5% study
overseas. All the money saved. Your country could save billions if
every student overseas is recalled to a local university, and at the
same time raising your own standards.
Your people are still without shoes, without land to farm, without
homes, bathing in rivers ****ing in hole in the ground, without water
and electricity. Your cities are concrete jungles without greenery and
open spaces. Your KL is jammed with traffic. Yet you still keep on
building high rises. You should come down from the clouds and stop
daydreaming and firmly plant your feet in the ground. Your schools are
cramped 500 students to an acre and thousands of acres are given free
to some politician who leaves them idle. Your parks are being taken by
politicians to build shophouses and every cabinet minister is a land
grabbing businessman who build roads only to their cronies=92 land.
The Malaysians=92 prayer =93Ya Allah, we thank you for your gifts of
timber, oil and grain. But then the devil sent us corrupt Mahathir
without a Brain And look we are back to square one again So just take
Dr Mahathir back to Hell And we will be alive and well.=94 In China
people have been shot for embezzling one thousand dollars. With 8
billions you have stolen therefore you would be shot 80 thousand
times. Now you are leading an anti-corruption campaign. We all know
what you should do. Look yourself in the mirror. You see the crook
there? Then use your left hand and handcuff your right hand. You have
put the opposition leader and his son in jail when they said in
parliament you are the richest PM in the world. And his colleague Mr
Karpal Singh too for 2 years. So I get a reward or bribe if I now say
you are the poorest PM in this world?
Your 3 sons are sitting in the board of directors of more than 200
companies. They must have been educated in Harvard school of business
and obtained distinctions? Or is it =93you don=92t know me you don=92t do
business in Malaysia=94 law that applies. Billions of ringgit of
Employee=92s Provident Funds and public Petonas funds are used to bail
out your sons who make losses investing in every venture you thought
you could make money. How unethical and corrupt.
Every one of your politicians are sitting on the boards of tens of
companies making thousands without any effort, lending their VIP names
to borrow millions from local banks without collateral. Now these have
become non performing loans. Now you want 20 millions Malaysian to
sacrifice for the folly of ONE man? Why not the fool resign and admit
he wasted and took most of the money. I could teach you how to put
your economy on tract but first you must apologize to the Jews and the
Malaysian people as well.
=91SOROS=92
