Night of the Long Knives

Undeniably the knives are out for Najib Razak. Wait, that's not right because the knives were out long ago, since his DPM days when there was a G.A.N (Gerakan Anti Najib) campaign by supporters of a certain party.

(Hmmm, was it Parti Kajang-satay Rancid? wakakaka).


I like a go at being boss
I'll be the de facto boss
I'm still the de jure boss

OK then, let me rephrase that - Undeniably MORE knives are now out for Najib Razak, wakakaka.

Even Siti Hasmah has now (indirectly or unwittingly) screwed one into the side of Najib's better half, wakakaka - for more, read Malaysiakini's Siti Hasmah: No need to compete with hubby.

Then there's the old favourite, about Altantuyaa's murder (incidentally started by G.A.N) being resurrected by a so-called 'hoax' message purportedly about one of the convicted murderers Sirul Azhar about to tell-all in Australia.

MKINI reported: A message circulating on social media that former police commando Sirul Azhar Umar was going to confess to the murder of Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu on the orders of prime minister's wife Rosmah Mansor is a hoax, reported Utusan Online.

Sirul's lawyer Hasnal Rezua Merican dismissed the news as a rumour, saying that this appeared to be an attempt to get at Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak amid allegations that he had taken US$700 million (RM2.6 billion) in state funds.

It's certainly more than a 'hoax' but, as mentioned by Siruls's lawyer, an attempt to get at Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak amid allegations that he had taken US$700 million (RM2.6 billion) in state funds.

It has been a sinister underhanded tactic to bury Najib by him being collateral damage to the wild allegations of his wife's instructions to murder Altantuyaa. This is far far worse than the '50 Dalil Mengapa Anwar Tidak Boleh Jadi PM' - at least no one accused Anwar of being a murderer or married to one.

Wow, someone's throwing the kitchen sink at Najib, and then some.

[the colloquialism 'and then some' means far more than the ultimate kitchen sink have been thrown at Najib, wakakaka]


In my previous post, I mentioned my grave disappointment with Lim Kit Siang for forgoing DAP's once redoubtable standards in political decency, due process and a high sense of fair play when he lamentably called for a RCI (Royal Commission of Inquiry) into the 1MDB affair plus plus, to be chaired by, can you beat this?, Dr Mahathir. See my post Is 'conflict of interest' alien to Lim Kit Siang?

Lim KS has also been responsible for calling on the police to re-open the case of the murder of AmBank founder Hussein Najadi. See FMT's Probe Najadi’s murder, says Kit Siang which reported (focus on bold highlighted phrase):

Najadi was shot dead in broad daylight in the centre of Kuala Lumpur in Lorong Ceylon in Bukit Bintang on July 29, 2013 a day after he lodged a police report on matters that he had earlier reported to Bank Negara.

The investigations, said Lim who is also DAP Parliamentary Leader and Gelang Patah MP, will be to ascertain whether the murder had any links with the RM42 billion 1MDB scandal.

“There are reasons to re-open the file on the murder given the new information that has emerged in the wake of the Wall Street Journal report last Friday,” said Lim.

Hussein had reported to Bank Negara in March 2013 about significant amounts of money being deposited into Najib’s personal accounts, added Lim. “Subsequently, he reported about the withdrawals of significant amounts of money from these bank accounts.”

“Najadi lodged a police report on the same matters on 28 July 2013 when no action was taken by Bank Negara.”

I'm not sure whether Lim KS's recount (as reported by FMT above) and attempt to link Hussein Najadi's murder with Bank Negara's failure to check into the transfer of large sums of money is slanderous [Najadi was shot dead ..... a day after he lodged a police report on matters that he had earlier reported to Bank Negara], so I went to Lim KS's blog to check what he has actually written, which has been as follows (focus on bold highlighted phrase):

A WSJ spokesman said it does not know “where the money went” as “Basically, the trail we have ends at the bank account that has the Prime Minister’s name on it".

In this connection, I call on the Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar to re-open investigations into the murder of founder of AmBank, Hussein Ahmad Najadi who was shot dead in broad daylight in the centre of Kuala Lumpur in Lorong Ceylon in Bukit Bintang on July 29, 2013 to ascertain whether the murder had any links with the 1MDB scandal.

The Police should investigate whether it is true that in March 2013, Hussein had reported to Bank Negara about significant amounts of money deposited into Najib’s personal accounts and subsequently about withdrawal of significant amounts of money from these bank accounts; and that Hussein lodged a police report on the above matters on 28th July 2013 when no actions were taken by Bank Negara.

The 75-year-old Hussain was shot dead in a car park in Kuala Lumpur on 29th July 23, 2013.

See the difference between the two, in which the FMT report appears to be slanderous (Najadi was shot dead ..... a day after he lodged a police report on matters that he had earlier reported to Bank Negara) whilst LKS' post posed a question as to whether it is truewakakaka.

But sadly (at least to me), Lim KS would seem to be in undue and rather OBSCENE haste to depose of Najib by whatever and whichever it takes, even unto sleeping with his once archfoe and now his redeemed rehabilitated and reconstituted best mate, Dr Mahathir.

FMT in another article reported Lim's views on a post-Najib PM, as follows: (again, please focus on bold highlighted phrase)

KUALA LUMPUR: DAP elder statesman Lim Kit Siang thinks that the focus on the way forward, in the wake of the allegations in the Wall Street Journal last Friday against Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, should not be on who will benefit when the premiership falls vacant. “The question at the moment may be whether the Attorney-General will charge the prime minister or whether the latter will sack the former.”

“Again, the focus should not be on which individual will take over as prime minister after Najib,” added Lim who is also DAP Parliamentary Leader and Gelang Patah MP. “What should be of paramount importance was to ensure that the real beneficiaries in a post-Najib scenario would be the people.”

kt's comment: fully agreed.

Lim was commenting on the fact that the guessing game has already begun in the media, in the social media and among the people everywhere on who will benefit when Najib goes, everyone being convinced that he has to go and will go when Umno decides between itself and Najib.

The media, he noted, has mentioned five names viz. former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, Umno Vice-President Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, jailed former Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and veteran Umno leader Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah, in that order, as beneficiaries in a post-Najib order.

“It seems that Mahathir will not be prime minister again but he will be behind whoever becomes prime minister after Najib,” noted Lim.

kt's comments: so, if Dr M will be the power behind the throne, wouldn't that make Dr M the de facto PM? 

And just how will that ensure that the real beneficiaries in a post-Najib scenario would be the people? Oh, I forgot my own views, that Dr M should be OK as de facto PM to Lim KS as the former is now his redeemed rehabilitated and reconstituted best mate.

In writing off Najib, he continued, the media has already trotted out headlines like these: Malaysia’s Najib Razak fights for political life amid 1MDB claims; A broken prime minister?; Is it ‘Game Over” for Najib?; Can Najib Survive 1MDB scandal?;

Lim argued that the time has come for all progressive and patrioticMPs and political leaders in Malaysia to come together on a common programme to save Malaysia from becoming a failed state as a result oframpant corruption, abuses of power, socio-economic injustices and the collapse of good governance.

kt's comments: my dear Lim KS, please f* that word patrioticas Samuel Johnson had long advised us to be wary of it since patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel. I'm damn bloody suspicious of those who called themselves patriots.

Malaysians who love their nation shouldn't be called 'patriots' but just 'Malaysians', would you believe that?

Secondly, on rampant corruption, abuses of power, socio-economic injustices and the collapse of good governance do you think Najib invented all these? Didn't you use to berate one certain political leader for the same issues? What now?

I have titled this post as The Night of the Long Knives because I recall that in Germany in 1934, from June 30 to July 2, there was a political change (by force) from the dominance of the unpalatable Sturmabteilung (SA) to the dominance of the equally unpalatable Hitlerian Nazis. It became known as  The Night of the Long Knives.



To be continued ...
