Bagi yang selalu menjenguk Blog Tun Mahathir kebelakangan ini pasti terbaca akan artikel yang bertajuk ‘Melayu kemana’ dan juga ‘Melayu kemana 2’ yang ditulis beliau.Adakah benar Tun Mahathir bimbang akan nasib atau masa depan orang-orang Melayu?
Kenapa sekarang baru beliau memikirkan nasib orang-orang Melayu? Kenapa tidak beliau memikirkan akan nasib dan masa depan orang Melayu selama 22 tahun memerintah dulu?
Kalau Tun Mahathir berkata akan pentingnya kuasa berada ditangan Melayu, kenapa Kelantan yang telah diperintah oleh PAS yang majority Ahlinya berugama Islam dan berbangsa Melayu tidak diberikan bantuan sepenuhnya sebagaimana negeri-negeri lain yang dikuasai oleh UMNO/BN?
Tidakkah di Kelantan kuasa pemerintahan terletak hampir 100% ditangan Melayu yang berugama Islam?
Jika dikala pemerintahannya Kelantan yang dikuasai Melayu cuba dirampas beliau, adakah benar beliau merasa bimbang akan nasib Melayu kini?
Mungkin Tun telah melihat akan nasib UMNO yang diterjemahkannya sebagai Melayu selepas PRU13.. atau secara lebih tepat lagi Tun bimbangkan tentang nasib pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO andaikata PR benar-benar menguasai Putrajaya..
Tun bimbang bila memikirkan akan nasib pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO yang selama ini membina kekayaan dari penyalahgunaan kuasa mereka yang dilindungi oleh UMNO..
Jadi sebenarnya bukan kemana Melayu yang dipersoalkan tetapi kemana UMNO? Atau kemana pemimpin UMNO?
Jadi bacalah artikel dibawah yang memaparkan sebahagian dari penyelewengan dan kiralah berapa jumlahnya yang terbabit didalam scandal-scandal yang berlaku diera pemerintahan Tun yang telah di sapu kebawah carpet demi kepentingan pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO..
Many snouts in the public trough / Grand Theft Malaysia
Asia Sentinel
The Port Klang Free Zone scandal may be big, but it is only the latest in a long line of Malaysian scandals going back to the early 1980s. Time Magazine quoted Daniel Lian, a Southeast Asia economist at Morgan Stanley in Singapore, saying that the country might have lost as much as U$100 billion since the early 1980s to corruption."
The scandals listed below are only a small sample of the looting of the country's coffers:
In July of 1983, what was then the biggest banking scandal in world history erupted in Hong Kong, when it was discovered that Bumiputra Malaysia Finance (BMF), a unit of Bank Bumiputra Malaysia Bhd, had lost as much as US$1 billion which had been siphoned off by prominent public figures into private bank accounts. The story involved murder, suicide and the involvement of officials at the very top of the Malaysian government. Ultimately it involved a bailout by the Malaysian government amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.
Mak Foon Tan, the murderer of Jalil Ibraim, a Bank Bumi assistant manager who was sent to Hong Kong to investigate the disappearance of the money, was given a death sentence, and Malaysian businessman George Tan who had participated in looting most of the funds, was jailed after his Carrian Group collapsed in what was then Hong Kong's biggest bankruptcy, and a handful of others were charged. No major politician was ever punished in Malaysia despite a white paper prepared by an independent commission that cited cabinet minutes of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad giving an okay to a request to throw more money into the scandal in an effort to contain it.
That was just the first Bank Bumi scandal. The government-owned bank had to be rescued twice more with additional losses of nearly US$600 million in today's dollars. Ultimately government officials gave up and the bank was absorbed into CIMB Group, currently headed by Nazir Razak, the prime minister's brother. That scandal, which stretched over several years before its denouement in 1985, set the tone for 24 years of similar scandals related to top Malaysian officials and was the first to prove that in Malaysia, you can not only get away with murder, you can get away with looting the treasury as well.
Perwaja Steel, for instance, lost US$800 million and its boss, Eric Chia, a crony of Mahathir's, was charged with looting the company. He stood trial, but was acquitted without having to put on a defense.
In the mid 1980s, the Co-operative Central Bank, a bank set up to aid the Indian smallholder community, had to be rescued by Bank Negara, the country's central bank, after hundreds of millions of ringgit in loans granted to a flock of United Malays National Organisation and Malaysian Indian Congress politicians became non-performing. Some had never been serviced at all. Although the chief executive and general manager were charged with criminal breach of trust, none of the politicians were ever charged.
