  • RPK has taken his pro-Najibism too low and too far. To insult the sikh community just because Najib is caught with his hand in the cookie jar is not only sensitive, it is outright seditious. Najib is a thief and a kleptocrat who tried to launder his money by claiming it was a donation from an Arab friend. Now he is trying to pass off his loot as UMNO's money but really what has this got to do with a tight turban constricting Amar Singh's blood flow?
