Please help me find Ibrahim Ali – A Concerned Citizen

Dear Sir/Madam,

1. As a concerned citizen, I have been very concerned about the media disappearance of Datuk Ibrahim Ali (DIA) and his sidekick Abdullah Zaik Abdul Rahman from Isma. They have disappeared from public consciousness since the Great Floods of December 2014.

2. There has been no sight and no sound from the self-declared leader of Malay rights. I am afraid that in his absence, the rights of the Malays will be questioned, gays will overrun this country, and don’t get me started on the Jews.

3. In fact, the press has been talking about how a non-Malay managed to make off with US$700 million of public money. Surely this would have caused DIA and his Economic Dream Team also known as Majlis Tindakan Ekonomi Melayu (MTEM) to awake from their slumber, wave their keris around and demand action to return this allegedly stolen money.

4. Even the patron of Perkasa, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, has been very vocal on this issue.

5. But DIA has been silent. I hope that nothing sinister has happened to him. Maybe he has got lost and cannot find his way back.

6. If anybody does find him, please send him to the nearest media outlet so that he can publicly declare Perkasa’s stand on 1MDB.

7. Perkasa has been very silent and can either follow the 154 Umno division chiefs in declaring support for the prime minister or they can follow their patron, Dr Mahathir, and demand answers to the many questions surrounding this scandal. Either way Perkasa must make a stand or else be deemed to be in a "kera sumbang" type existence.

8. But DIA may need some encouragement. DIA is quite brave when facing very small ikan bilis, but loses courage when having to comment on an issue that involves “jerung” and other bigger fish.

Thank You,

Sir Wenger and Other Concerned Citizens. – March 16, 2015.

A commentary on National Automotive Policy 2014

Folks,

I have been rather quiet – but that is because I was busy with my work.

Below is a good article by a media friend of mine, John Gilbert. He wrote a commentary on the latest version National Automotive Policy (NAP) that was launched in January 2014.

A rather comprehensive article, I would say.
