There’s a system in place in any country, Malaysia being no exception. Also, even “bad government”, it’s said, is better than “no government” at all. Eventually, it’s the system that catches up with alleged wrongdoers, when they come face to face with it. We can recall the fates of Marcos, Suharto, Mubarak, Saddam Hussein, Muammar Gaddafi, Joseph Tito and Omar al-Bashir and more from recent history.
The PTI (pendatang tanpa izin or illegal immigrants) in Sabah can share their experience with the oft-cited Bapa Projek IC Mahathir (Father of Project IC Mahathir) phenomenon. The 2012 Sabah RCI Report on Illegal Immigrants refers. Coincidentally, the Lahad Datu intrusion was in early 2013. Nine Sulu militants were hanged for “waging war against the Agong”. Then, came the Sulu heirs, who are being dealt with by the system and the Sabah Report on the air crash in 6 June 1976 where there has been no closure.
The long arm of the law will catch up with alleged wrongdoers including people like dictatorial former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, 98, who has probably been literally asking for it on a daily basis, and hold them accountable. No one can escape Karma, the law of cause and effect. It’s the guilty conscience that kills. In Karma, those who block the “clear energy” will be moved out of the way. Miracles happen when the conscience is clear. It’s not superstition for those who have experienced it. Malaysia has stored up a lot of Karma since Merdeka (Independence) on 31 August 1957 and Malaysia Day on 16 September 1963.
Anwar And Mahathir
Mahathir and family, all confirmed multibillionaires who went from rags to riches in a decade, still don’t know what hit them. The past has caught up in the present and haunts the future, jail or exile, as they risk being back in rags again. In many countries, there are laws on “unexplained wealth”, separate from “secret profits”, money laundering and tax evasion.
Mahathir was “threatening” Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim one minute with defamation suit for speaking the truth on “impossible wealth” held by him and the family. The Prime Minister has a duty to find closure on the “impossible wealth” held by so many people in the country. It’s a matter of public concern and public interest, the criteria used by the Attorney General (AG) under Article 145, in framing charges in court.
All hell broke loose the next minute after the Mahathir threat. We can recall, in keeping things in perspective, that Anwar has won many counter-claims and defamation suits. He won Sodomy 1 on Appeal, lost the corruption case in Sodomy 1, and Sodomy 2, and was given Pardon for both criminal cases.
