Hi Bhai, next time do a bit of research before you open your big mouth.
What the difference, the Christians do it with their Bible.You can find a copy of the Bible in every room in every 5-star hotel all over the world including Malaysia.
Lest you forget the Malaysian government never stopped these hotels from allowing them to be party to helping missionary work for Christendom.
The Gideon Bibles placed in hotel rooms (in Malaysia and all over the world) and hospital wards (in many Western countries, but not in Malaysia) is for the purpose of spreading the Christian faith.
Free Qurans.....FREE! means free, you can accept the gift or politely reject it.
Why is it when Christianity do, it's OK, but when Islam do, Muslims have evil intention?
"Behind every great man there is a great woman"........she makes you, or destroy you!
Acrimonious Split Rattles Malaysian Premier’s Family
The announcement last week by top Malaysian banker Nazir Razak of his intention to file defamation charges against bloggers believed connected to a close friend of his brother, Prime Minister Najib Razak, has laid bare what has been whispered about for months in Kuala Lumpur.
There is a growing, acrimonious rift in the Razak family, much of it over the deeply indebted government-backed investment fund 1Malaysia Development Bhd, and Najib’s siblings’ relationship with the prime minister’s wife, Rosmah Mansor, partly because of her ostentatious flaunting of enormous wealth. Rosmah, in addition to concerns about her behavior, is believed to have convinced her husband to initiate the 1MDB fund, which is backed by the Ministry of Finance.
One of the questions circulating in Malaysia’s business community is whether the family feud might result in problems for CIMB, the fast-growing Malaysia-headquartered bank that Nazir heads and which has become one of Southeast Asia’s leading financial institutions. Observers say CIMB owes at least some of its rapid growth to its connections to the family and hence to UMNO. “Its political connections are probably no longer a slam dunk asset for Nazir,” a business source with connections to the government told Asia Sentinel.
“The brothers openly criticize Rosmah at dinner functions and family events,” a well-wired source told Asia Sentinel. “I have heard them myself. Nazir’s family has moved to Oxford, where he spends 60 to 70 percent of his time. His elder brother Nizam spends time with his family in Boston. The two elder brothers Johari and Nazim also cannot get along with Rosmah.”
It was Nazim, according to two sworn declarations, one by a business associate of Rosmah and the other by the late private detective Perumal Balasubramaniam, who played a role in forcing Bala, as he was known, out of the country in 2008 after he issued an initial statement that Najib himself had been the lover of Altantuya Shaariibuu, a Mongolian woman murdered in 2006 in one of Malaysia’s most notorious killings and who was peripherally involved in a massive bribery case involving the sale of French submarines to Malaysia. After Bala made the statement, he was told to get out of Malaysia and was given a hefty bribe to do so. Allegedly it was Nazim, a Kuala Lumpur architect, who took Balasubramaniam to the Hilton Hotel in Kuala Lumpur to write a statement recanting his version of the relationship between Altantuya and Najib.
The acrimony is so bad that some of the family have spent their Hari Raya holiday – the celebration at the end of the fasting month – in Phuket and Singapore to avoid going to the prime minister’s obligatory open house, the source said.
Hantu Laut This could be the first for the New York Times, an article in Bahasa Melayu. The question is why did NYT go to such extent with its story on Malaysia's current PM and his family involvement in some very questionable deals. Are there invisible hands behind this putsch on Najib? Was it mere incident that the article was published a day before the judgement day of Anwar's sodomy case? The Federal Court decision is expected out today. Below is a an abridged version in Bahasa Melayu. You can read the unabridged English version here. You can also read the full length article "Towers Of Secrecy" here.
Urusan pelaburan di AS oleh seorang rakyat Malaysia yang rapat dengan ramai orang ternama menimbulkan tanda tanya
Taek Jho Low mulai mendapat perhatian umum semasa beliau masih lagi dalam usia 20-an, apabila beliau mulai menghabiskan ribuan dollar bersama rakan-rakannya di kelab-kelab malam sekitar Manhattan. “Spekulasi mulai timbul tentang dari manakah sumber kewangan Jho datang,” lapor The New York Post.
Namun, sejak itu, persoalan yang berlegar-legar tidak lagi hanya tertumpu kepada kehidupan malam beliau. Low memperlihatkan dirinya kepada umum sebagai seorang pelabur yang besar dalam bidang perniagaan dan hartanah di Amerika Syarikat. (Read in English.)
Walaupun Low mempunyai hubungan rapat dengan beberapa orang kenamaan, namun begitu, terdapat sebuah keluarga yang terus-terusan dikaitkan dengan Low, iaitu keluarga perdana menteri Malaysia sendiri, Dato’ Seri Najib Razak. Low mulai berkawan rapat dengan keluarga Najib semasa Low masih belajar di sebuah sekolah tinggi swasta terkemuka berhampiran kota London. Baru-baru ini, Low turut terlibat dalam pembelian sebuah unit kondo mewah bernilai RM 117 juta di tengah-tengah bandar New York oleh anak tiri perdana menteri tersebut, di samping membantunya dengan syarikat perfileman yang telah menerbitkan filem “The Wolf of Wall Street” dan “Dumb and Dumber To.” (Teruskan membaca di sini dalam Bahasa Inggeris.)

Unit kondo mewah dan syarikat perfileman tersebut kini dipaparkan di dalam sebuah siri projek siasatan global oleh New York Times yang meneliti aliran wang asing yang masuk ke Amerika Syarikat, dengan menjadikan unit-unit kondominium di dalam bangunan “Time Warner Center” sebagai titik fokus.
New York Times mendapati bahawa walaupun sebahagian besar wang asing ini datangnya daripada sumber kekayaan yang sah, namun beberapa rakyat asing yang memiliki unit kondo di Time Warner Center telah menjadi subjek dalam beberapa penyiasatan kerajaan. (Teruskan membaca di sini dalam Bahasa Inggeris.)
Projek ini turut memaparkan artikel-artikel tentang ahli-ahli politik dari Mexico (akan datang minggu ini) dan Rusia (akan datang minggu ini), dan juga tentang seorang ahli perniagaan kontroversi dari India (akan datang minggu ini). New York Times juga mendapati bahawa kini, lebih setengah daripada pembeli-pembeli unit kediaman mewah di bandar New York memilih untuk melakukan pembelian secara rahsia dengan menggunakan tabung amanah atau jenis syarikat yang lain, daripada memilih untuk menggunakan nama mereka sendiri.
Pada tahun 2011, Low telah membeli sebuah penthouse di Time Warner Center bernilai RM 109 juta dengan menggunakan sebuah syarikat yang rahsia. Pada masa yang sama juga, Low mulai dikritik oleh umum di Malaysia. Kritikan tersebut mempersoalkan peranan Low dalam pembentukan 1MDB, yang merupakan syarikat pembangunan strategik milik kerajaan. Sejak itu, parti pembangkang dan juga beberapa ahli UMNO terus mempersoalkan 1MDB, di mana lembaga penasihatnya juga dipengerusikan oleh Najib sendiri.
Malays are seldom racists, misguided maybe, but there is no inherent racism in them. Ibrahim Ali and those of his ilk is a different kettle of fish.Even they are not racists, they are just very angry Malays.
Ismail Sabri's choice of word may not be pleasing to some people's ears, but he made a very specific and profound statement...."boycott the Chinese traders who refused to lower prices" , the emphasis was on "those who refused to lower prices"
If people have not read between the lines there would not be a problem, or allegation of racism. He did not say boycott all Chinese traders, just those who refused to lower prices.
Can you blame him?
Let's get our perspective right, the reality, almost 90% of retail businesses in this country are in the hands of the Chinese in urban and semi-urban areas and the majority of consumers are Malays/Bumiputras with limited spending power.
The non-Chinese outlets are minute, insignificant and immaterial to mention.
Sometimes, when push comes to shove, bluntness get noticed.
