Who needs to, when we have first class entertainment from Malaysia's most celebrated performers in the political circle? The latest drama beats anything Hollywood scriptwriters could come up with: Najib accused (and not just implicated) in the latest revelation of the Altantuya case. What a way to stun the audience, when the previous episode was focused entirely on fresh sodomy allegations against Anwar. In the same day, the PI who made the statutory declaration withdraws it in a second statutory declaration, citing that the former was made under duress. Which one, I wonder, was made under duress? The PKR has sufficient bullying power to force a PI to fabricate evidence against the second-most powerful man in Malaysia of corruption? And why did he appear perturbed only after the second declaration, if it was the first one that was made under duress?
A rally to protest against fuel price hikes is set to take place in Petaling Jaya on Sunday. 1 million people are expected to gather in a padang slightly larger than a soccer pitch. Amidst the many revelations of this past week, the crowd will have no shortage of things to protest against.
