AS those who exposed the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) scandal are marched off to jail, the site of the ambitious cattle rearing project lies in a tangle of weeds.
No cows and no workers were spotted at the 600-ha NFC site in Gemas, Negri Sembilan, where RM250 million in public funds were sunk into a project that has since been left to rot.
No one has been found guilty for the failures of the project. But on February 7, Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli, who exposed NFC’s failures, was sentenced to 30 months in jail for revealing bank documents related to the project.

Hannah Yeoh: "Malaysia on fire. Don's spoil vote. No time for 'sunscreen'
Hannah Yeoh, AUUN for Subang Jaya, has a piece of advice for those intending to spoil their votes this coming 14th General Election prompted by her daughter coming home looking very tanned.
"Why didn't you put on sunscreen I gave you?" asked Hannah
Daughter: The fire alarm went off – supposedly a fire drill – and they had to gather in the school field under the hot sun.
Hannah's daughter, clearly frustrated with my logic, exclaimed "It's a fire mommy! How can I find time to put my lotion?”
Malaysia is on fire (dire straits). Eating out is expensive. Cooking at home is not cheap either. Schools have become political tools for BN. Teachers are held to ransom for their votes. They are not free to educate what is right. The quality of education had dropped. Bullies. Drug addicts. Children are abused, sexually and physically. The entire vicious cycle goes on repeat.
How do you reset a nation without securing federal power?
No one will willingly surrender power without giving it a good fight. How far will Umno go to give it a good fight? Najib once said "to win at all costs." Scary.
The political scene remains an non-level playing field. Look at the redelineation exercise by Elections Commission. Look at the excessive prison sentence given to Rafizi.
(https://www.malaysiakini.com/news/411383)
In 2008, it was a call for stronger opposition. Despite having a stronger opposition, BN can still cook up a scandal as big as 1MDB. 2018 must see the dismantling of federal power for BN. A stronger opposition is no longer enough to un-do a nation "on fire."
Please don't spoil your vote. Vote Pakatan Harapan to enable them to rule Malaysia for the next 5 year term to "put out the fire".

Does this sounds familiar? Is Malaysia doomed?
When you see that trading is done,
not by consent, buy by compulsion -
when you see that in order to produce,
you need to obtain permission from
men who produce nothing - when you
see that money is flowing to those
who deal, not in goods, but in favors -
when you see that men gets richer by
graft and by pull than by work, and
your laws don't protect you against
them, but protect them against you -
when you see corruption being
rewarded and honesty become a
self-sacrifice - you may know that your
society is doomed."
- AYAN RAND

Unjust Malaysia, culprits go free but whistleblowers jailed
Malaysia is becoming more and more unjust. Rafizi Ramly and a bank clerk blew the whistle on Sharizat Jalil's family members
In the notorious cows and condos scandal where much of the RM250 million money meant to help poor farmers were used to buy expensive condos were exposed by Rafizi Ramly. Then Rafizi Ramli and ex bank clerk Johari were sentenced for disclosing confidential banking information on Shahrizat Jalil’s family members and a few companies owned by them. So the guilty party goes scoot free while whistleblowers were sentenced to jail time. Is that just?
This morning, the Attorney-General's Chambers asked for an RM500,000 fine and a prison sentence.
Luckily, the judge passed only a prison sentence because otherwise, I wouldn’t have the money to pay and would have to be taken to prison straight away.
So the fight must go on and I will see you soon. In the meantime, let’s work together to put an end to this, once and for all.

Car prices reduction? UMNO/BN lied again
UM/BN 2013 election promised a gradual car price reduction up to 30% and "proudly" declared that its manifesto promises had been kept. But PaulTan.com blew the whistle and revealed that their calculations were based on unfair comparison - like comparing a Proton with a BMW, comparing models in 2013 with lower models now.
