  • For my Lindon U's political geography paper, I studied how 'deep state' became the first step to lead a country to abandon democracy, I hope this 'deep state' matter will be viewed seriously. Not long ago Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, even Indonesia and a number of other African and Latin American countries fell into this trap.

  • The PDRM cannot and should not investigate themselves, as they are naturally biased.
    If the PDRM were really interested in electing the truth, they would be clamoring for an RCI, and not start 'investigating' those who criticize them. What the PDRM is doing now amounts to illegal harassment of its critics, which is a clear cut abuse of power.
    Is this why some members of the PDRM are terrified, yes terrified, of an IPCMC with teeth?

  • The Korean TV Series .Vagabond' on Netflix worries me because many parts of the story line are about things that have happened in Malaysia. I can't wait to see the next episode.Anyway it is a good waking up call for all those in our 'deep state'. They are all pawns in this game of politics.
