  • LKS semakin buntu so desperate to mention 1MDB into every conversation that he forgets that there are already investigations launched and some concluded around the world.

    Yet he still calls for RCI on 1MDB simply to divert attention from the Forex Scandal RCI - and ironically, the latter RCI that was recently launched should have thrown LKS into ecstasy as he has been demanding for exactly one until he became bedfellows with the central figure in the RCI, LKS' own former arch-enemy turned 'best frenemies forever'.

    So, why now you suddenly no likey Forex Scandal RCI, LKS?
