We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this rgt shall never be below rgt4.7 to the dollar.

In this darkest hour, we shall stand alone against USD.

We can lie to some people all the time. We can lie to all people some time. We cannot lie to all people all the time.

This is anwar ibrahim's moment.🤣

Murray, you forgot Anwar appointed JAKIM to oversee all policy? The Mullahs have all the answers. See Kelantan and Terengganu for their achievements. Just don't wear shorts to go out.

"A ministerial panel decided on Monday to back a bill that would siphon off power from the Israel Bar Association and transfer it to a new, government-headed authority.

Just days after the country’s lawyers elected Amit Becher — who has been bitterly critical of the coalition’s judicial overhaul push — as head of the bar association, the Ministerial Committee for Legislation voted to give government support to a bill that will strip away the bar’s licensing authority and its representation on the committee that selects judges."

Regardless of how one views the state of Israel, this is something that must inevitably be in the contemplation of Anwar Ibrahim if he wishes to remain on government or stabilize the country.

This would be sad. Even taking power away from bar council is not good enough for anwar's coalition.

Anwar's coalition is already rattling. It is about to collapse.

Muda is going for the state seats. This will kill BN.

Dap will not be idiotic and vote umno candidates.

Umno call mic mca biawak hidup.

And to take power away from the Bar council?

The Bar Council has been due for a shake up aa ling time ago. They are neither independent nor competent. There is a worldwide (at least in the west sans the US ) move to strip the legal profession and their self made guilds from exercising political power whilst they engage in legal practice. Like thee late Karpal Singh and others who continue to practice the law whilst sitting in parliament. They don't seem to get it. You can't be an officer of the court whilst at the same time a member of the legislature.

There is nothing that Anwar Ibrahim can do that will turn the fortunes of Malaysia's economy around including divine intervention. Having allowed Anwar Ibrahim to become prime minister after he committed acts of sedition and treason, undermined lawfully elected governments, used foreign funds and governments to advance his own personal ambitions no one will trust the promises of any government he leads.

Anwar's government or any other government he leads will be tainted by the man's lack of personal, political and economic integrity. Malaysia is a basket case if there ever was one. The country has been beset by problems of its own making.

Once the integrity of a nation has been damaged as Malaysia's has been by its elite, nothing short of a coup and a totalitarian government willing to bite the bullet and impose strict austerity measures and the enforcement of law and order (unlike the selective prosecution of some elements of its government in show trials), Malaysia is economically doomed.

This may be the beginning of the end of lassaire faire economics and the beginning of Islamic economics for Malaysia ass Anwar had always favored since his rabble rousing days. The only capable person to lead Malaysia out of the crisis it faces is an aging former prime minister.

Unfortunately the die has already been cast and Malaysians must now rue the day they supported the Obamas against their own leader for 30 pieces of Silver.

The truth is that whether or not Anwar had planned it, the only medicine left for Malaysia is likely to be Shariah Law and Islamic finance to survive.

It is not true to suggest that this is the trend all over the world. China engineered its own demise by departing from a glorious path set by Deng Xiao Peng by allowing a hostile megalomaniac like Xi Jin Peng to trample all over China's achievements by returning to pure Maoism.

India is the perfect example of how a nation can lift itself up by its bootstraps and succeed through goodwill in the midst of a world wide recession maintaining its independence in the most trying of times.

Malaysia's problems are the result of an elite funded by the west and nothing more nothing less.
