But Always, I Come back To THE Point.

And THE POINT is ?

What's YOUR Answer Dato' Seri Najib ???

I need to pre-empt readers and former viewers -  No, I am not referring to " To the POINT " a socio- political economy talk show which I once hosted for Capital TV on Hypp TV-UNIFI for a few seasons starting in 2013 and was also the Consultant Producer.
The POINT for me is a certain unmarked place in Melaka town, somewhere between Dataran Pahlawan and the row of shophouses on reclaimed land. Whenever I pass by "the POINT" in Melaka it echoes and re-echoes - " Duty, Country / Empire and ..."

When I was very young, my father ensured that I had a taste of Kampung (the Malay term for Village) life in Jasin, Melaka. Often, he would take me for a drive to Melaka town, passing by many historical sites and buildings (which tourists flocks to now) but were then in the 70s not really 'appreciated'  nor commercialised. My father will now and again take different routes but always we would end up at a row of food stalls just off to the right off Dataran Pahlawan if one were to be facing the Melaka Straits. Over a bowl of Ice-Kacang and him normally taking a coconut drink, he will start talking about the history of Melaka and of our family and of how Melaka achieved greatness and why it fell etc etc.

Well what did you expect from a 5 or 6-year old kid? Attention? When someone is going on and on about history!? I would like to think that I was a bit smarter though and gave the impression to my father that I was paying attention only because I can order my second bowl of Ice Kacang(nuts) littered with sweetcorn. Nowadays, time and again I can remember certain stories like Si Kitul, Si Tanggang, bloody fights or battles, the war to retake Melaka in 1517 and 1521 which have been relegated to just a line or brief footnote in Malaysian history books by 'unchecked' historians. At times, I was regaled over Ice Kacang and some finger food on the role the family played in WW2 and in the Communist Insurgency as well as the cowardly Brits labels hurled at the MPAJA in addition to the family sufferings at the hands of Japanese and Communists alike. A recurring theme in all stories seemed to be the role played by traitors.


Coming back, To THE Point:
Dato' Seri Najib bin TUN ABDUL RAZAK,
YOU've not and never answered YOURSELF whether a sizeable amount have been deposited into your personal account at AM Bank

Instead, the people have been served with this:-

SPRM 10 August 2015

(SPRM Media Statement on August 2015)

A statement by the SPRM or MACC which instead of ending the saga you've created, led to an unprecedented visit by the Police to the MACC office. Subsequently, MACC officials were given transfer orders presumably for "cold storage" purposes.

Perhaps, you should have taken heed of the visit by 17(or was it 19, I can't recall) UMNO Supreme Council Members during the holy month of Ramadhan instead of thinking it as a Hollywood script.


Coming back, To THE POINT:
Dato' Seri Najib bin TUN ABDUL RAZAK,
YOU've not and never answered YOURSELF which Country(ies) gave the RM2.6 Billion Political Donation stated by the MACC Media Statement in August 2015.


If its:-
PM Lee Hsien Loong or Singapore - What else have you given up or piece(s) of land surrendered?
President Obama or USA - Does that mean Malaysia will sign the TPPA?

If you claim it's a Middle East country, then if its:-
Iran - Does that mean Syiah is now allowed to be practiced in Malaysia?
Saudi Arabia - another version of Islam being consented ??
.......surely its not the Pariah Terrorist state of Israel???

Perhaps, you should have clarified the matter when it was raised during discussions between your Goodself, and UMNO's Deputy President, Treasurer and Secretary-General on GE13 funding instead of thinking of it as a Bollywood script.


Coming back, To THE POINT:
Dato' Seri Najib bin TUN ABDUL RAZAK,
YOU've not and never answered anything YOURSELF Mr.Prime Minister.
And, because of this there exists a lacuna(e) in the script.

Whatever your story, Please Come Clean or Forever Be Tainted !!!

Please come clean as there's still a glimmer of hope.
Based on last week's survey in Perak, Selangor and KL...there's still a glimmer,
...some Perakians are seeing it as nothing more than Johor making way for Perak;
Based on last weekend's poll in NS and Melaka...there's still some ember,
...a diminishing minority are saying you've been framed.

Whatever your story, Please Come Clean or Forever Be Tainted !!!

" To THE Point " Please, Mr. Prime Minister of Malaysia!
