Quiet. Since May 9... Zaid Ibrahim has been quiet. Rahman Dahlan has been quiet. Eric See-To @ Lim Sian See has been quiet. Salleh Said Keruak has been quiet. Pandikar Amin Mulia has been quiet. Nasaruddin Tantawi has been quiet. Peace.

Not again. Chinese coastguard ships, warplanes engage in ‘parallel escalation’ and 'harass’ Malaysian vessels near the Kasawari gas field last month. 'Likely not a coincidence’, US think tank Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative says in a report.

I suggest the Kit Siang-Najib Debate is broadcast live in full-length Bahasa Malaysia, the national language, so that more kampung folks understand the gist of it.

Daulat Tuanku. Agong knows the people are freaking fed up with politicians’ senseless politicking from both sides. But like it or not, the current government gets to stay on.

1MDB looted monies. Swiss AG says there’s RM28b in the financial system. But Apandi said no such thing hence no action, remember? Reuters says Malaysia will send a team to meet DoJ in Washington, and AG Tommy Thomas’ team may join in. Have no mercy on the corrupters will ya.

On your trip tomorrow Tun M, press Xi Jinping on effective graft-fighting tactics that kleptocrats and looters of national wealth would be exterminated. Bon voyage!

Hello Unifi c/o MCMC I signed up and paid for 500Mbps Unifi Residential. This is what I get. Unifi cheated me on bandwidth by 57.6%. Even at 85% ‘best effort rate’ (a dirty word)… Unifi is worse off by 51.2%. A failed state as far as OECD fibre broadband is concerned.

Hilarious. Nine months after taking over Putrajaya many in the Pakatan Harapan government are still behaving like they are in the opposition, Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today. No naming names.
