Iceland Vs K.L. (Two Snapshots) - As We Reveal Najib's Spendthrift Bank Statements EXCLUSIVE IMAGES
Within 12 hours, crowds of Icelanders were on the streets of
Reykjavik, outside their Parliament building, demanding the resignation
of their PM.
Why?
Because, this individual in high office had been found to have a wife with an off-shore bank account.
Although there was no proof of tax evasion or illegally obtained cash
(the usual story behind so many off-shore accounts), Icelanders
disliked the lack of transparency.
They also detected a conflict of interest, in that the company held
shares in local banks, whose bankruptcy issues the Prime Minister was
over-seeing.
The PM, it was established, had not declared this potential conflict,
on behalf of his wife, when he took office. Clearly, this could not be
acceptable, in the view of the public.
Faced with such a loss of popular confidence, within 36 hours their
Prime Minister resigned – after all, public office is all about respect
and confidence.
Philanthropic jewellery purchases?
Meanwhile, more than a year after outrageous, billion dollar
misappropriations were revealed to have taken place from 1MDB, which is
headed by the Malaysian Prime Minister, an arrest has taken place – also
in front of the Parliament building, this time in KL.
Except, the arrest in question was of an opposition MP,
who has challenged the management of the 1MDB development fund and
revealed secret documents (just like the Panama Papers) to back his
arguments.
The MP remains, at the time of writing, in detention, without access
to a lawyer – allegedly under the provisions of the Malaysian Official
Secrets Act.
Meanwhile, Sarawak Report can confirm that not one of the
journalists, who has embarrassed and undermined the former Icelandic
Prime Minister with regard to his wife’s affairs, has been banned, faced
a warrant for arrest (for “attempting to topple a ‘democratically
elected’ Prime Minister”) or indeed been slapped with an Interpol
terrorist Red Alert notice…. or any such thing.
So, what is going on?
Prime Minister Najib must find himself exasperated by the lack of
stamina of his Icelandic colleague. On the other hand, he must also be
hugely relieved that the good citizens of KL are plainly too nervous to
stand outside his own Parliament building and demand the obvious from
him.
So, perhaps this is not the moment to reveal documents we have
recently received, which are embarrassing to the Prime Minister, to say
the least.
Or, perhaps to the contrary we will begin by refreshing minds as to
the bank account and credit card numbers referred to on the charts
waived by the loyal AG Apandi, at the time he “cleared” the PM?
With this information to hand, we invite readers to continue to
peruse some of the investigation documents which, according to ABC Four
Corners, caused the former Attorney General, the former Deputy Prime
Minister and the Agong (amongst other officials contacted under the
correct and lawful procedures that until recently existed in Malaysia)
to sign a warrant to detain the PM last July.
What such expenditures show, for example, is that around RM3 million
was spent on just one day’s jewellery shopping at one flash store in
Sardinia, during the Najib Razak family August holiday in 2014 – all on
the PM’s platinum credit cards.
Malaysians also now know that this money originated from the 1MDB
subsidiary company SRC, managed by Nik Faisal Arif Kamil (who also for
some reason had authority to manage the PM’s accounts).
The Prime Minister himself has now himself admitted to all this – given the evidence what else could he do?
However, the AG (whom he appointed after sacking the earlier one who
had issued the warrant for his arrest) has, as we know, “cleared” him,
after accepting the excuse that Najib didn’t know that his pal, Nik (now
a fugitive in Jakarta) had done any of this jiggery pokery with his
accounts.
Malaysians also know that this SRC money all originated from a loan
obtained from the public pension fund KWAP, which has never been
properly accounted for.
Such stuff would be enough to bring those tetchy Icelanders out on
the streets in a considerable temper, one would assume. Their PM would
have lasted less than 5 minutes!
After all, there is lot’s more of this annoying evidence, which has
been coming out over the past few days, including statements, which show
that much of this money from KWAP via SRC was used by the PM to pay
cheques to various individuals during this periods in 2014:
Najib has, of course, through his spokespeople, over the past days
clarified that all these payments were intended for ‘charitable
purposes’ via his good offices. Specifically, he has mentioned poor
orphans and flood disaster victims (admittedly he must have felt a bit
guilty, having taken so long to realise their plight in the middle of
playing golf with Obama and spending another fortune at Cartier in
Honolulu).
So, jewels for them! He has also mentioned he forked out for silk carpets at unspecified mosques.
As we say, he is lucky he is peddling these excuses to his sweet
fellow Malaysians… because, goodness knows how those Bugis Icelandic
Viking types would have reacted to excuses of this nature.
We can probably guess!
