IMAGINE, if Michael Chia's RM40mil was a donation to Anwar or PR and not UMNO!

The box of a Sabah businessman Michael Chia held red-handed during a Hong Kong International Airport upon August 14, 2008 with RM40 million income in his luggage before he could house a moody to Kuala Lumpur is uncanny enough but even more uncanny is a utter indifference as well as unconcern shown by a authorities to a box purportedly since a RM40 million that Chia was perplexing to filch in to Malaysia from Hong Kong were domestic contributions to a state Umno as well as not for Chief Minister Musa Aman's personal use as well as that "no component of corruption was proven".

Malaysians could imagine a enlarged nation-wide outcry that would have ensued if a RM40 million income Chia had been held red-handed during a Hong Kong International Airport perplexing to filch in to Malaysia had been meant for Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim or anyone of a 3 Pakatan Rakyat parties!

The leaders during assorted levels of Barisan Nasional component parties as well as their mainstream mass media would have competed, day-in-day out for weeks, demanding full accounting as well as movement by a authorities, together with throwing a books upon corruption or income laundering.

Where is Najib's 'natural anathema to corruption' now

The Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak would have trotted out his warning during a recent International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA) conference i! n Kuala Lumpur upon a vicious as well as crucial importance to instil "a natural anathema to corruption" between people in positions of energy as well as authority.

UMNO/BN Ministers as well as leaders would have released one warning after another about treachery, traitors as well as a betrayal of a republic from a dangers as well as evils of unfamiliar funding, particularly unwashed income whilst dubious organisations as well as individuals would have crawled all over a nation with demonstrations, butt-dances as well as denunciations.

But now, there is pin-drop overpower from all these sectors as well as no "natural anathema to corruption" whatsoever!

Dirty cash

The question Sabahans as well as Malaysians are entitled to ask a Prime Minister is either a box of a RM40 million unwashed income - either for Sabah Chief Minister or Sabah UMNO (of that Musa is Chairman) - is right away fully closed as far as a Malaysian government is concerned, for this will also signal a finish of all credit of a independence, integrity as well as professionalism of a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) as well as Najib's Government Transformation Programme (GTP) that prioritised "fighting corruption", together with "grand corruption", as one of a key NKRA programmes.

It is unequivocally tragic. Just a week ago, Najib was waxing lyrical, receiving a moral tall ground during a opening of a IAACA Conference in Kuala Lumpur about a vicious purpose for people as well as positions of energy as well as management to reflect a "right values" to fight corruption, as well as today, all credit as well as reputation of Najib's anti-corruption campaign as well as a MACC completely in tatters.
