KJ MUST RESIGN

KJ is just like a grown-up boy monkeying around. He seeks cheap publicity - went through askar wataniah training, playacting as a fitness buff. With all this inconsequential things he failed to oversee what matters in the Ministry. 

Gone is RM100 million under KJ's very nose. He should be responsible and resign. What happened to the RM250 lembu condo case and the 2.6 billion in Najib's pocket he would ask. If they can get away with much bigger amounts then he has nothing to worry. The bangang Najib keeps all the bangangs around him for a purpose. But they will drown him into the drains.

He is ambitious. He is among the 4th floor boys in Putrajaya. He wants to be the youngest PM. He is against subsidies.

The UMNO Disciplinary committee found him corrupt but Dolah the sleepy head wanted him to be the Umno youth leader and not to be challenged.

Kementerian Belia and its minister has upped the rakyat's hatred towards UMNO. PRU14 is curtains for Barisan.

NAJIB LANUN MINYAK BUKAN BALAK

Aku bukan penyangak balak atau bauxite. Minyak.

 

Aku tidak pandang balak atau bauxite. Itu bak kata mainan celah gigi. Biar  orang2 bawah sapu. Balak, bila ditebang ada mata terbeliak. Bauxite berdebu mudah orang terhidu. Warnanya pula kemerahan senang nampak. 

What the fuck, aku Bugis berani mati,  mesti ganas, mesti melanun.

Sudah 40 tahun berpolitik mesti tahu selok belok halus untuk melenyapkan berbilion. 

Dari dulu aku tahu kekayaan minyak. Aku gadaikan minyak untuk buat pinjaman 42 bilion. TIA ditukar kapada 1MDB.

BIC MAMA IS NO MAE WEST

Mae West belongs to the west. Endless possibilities (to borrow Najib) of lifestyles there. Thus, Bic Mama's bag therapy or diamond therapy is nonhedonistic but fetish.
