Albert Tei and Malaysiakini: Mission to Bring Down MACC? (eng/malay)

What do Albert Tei and MalaysiaKini have in ? Both want Tan Sri Azam Baki, the Chief Commissioner of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), fired. Even if the only "evidence" of Azam's alleged wrongdoing is a flimsy report by Bloomberg.  They think we are fools.

Apakah persamaan Albert Tei dengan MalaysiaKini? Kedua-duanya mahukan Ketua Pesuruhjaya, Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM), Tan Sri Azam Baki, diberhentikan. dan dikenakan tindakan disiplin. Walaupun tiada bukti salahlaku Azam, yang ada cuma suatu laporan berita yang sangsi oleh Bloomberg. Mereka fikir kita semua bodoh belaka.

We all know Albert Tei is corrupt. He said it himself (he attempted to bribe some politicians in Sabah). Even Malaysiakini reported it.

Kita tahu Albert Tei ini sememangnya seorang perasuah. Ini adalah pengakuan dia sendiri (cuba merasuah beberapa politikus Sabah). Malaysiakini pun ada membuat laporan tersebut.

Malaysiakini has been behaving like a champion. They are on a mission: Topple Azam Baki at whatever cost and discredit the MACC, the anti-corruption institution.

Malaysiakini sekarang kelihatan amat 'gah'. Kononnya "adat periuk berkerak adat lesung berdedak". Working Overtime bak kata orang putih, berteraskan Misi: Jatuhkan Azam Baki dan memburuk-burukkan institusi pemerang rasuah SPRM.

But those in glass houses should not throw stones. Recently, we learned about Malaysiakini's own multi-million ringgit financial misdemeanour (I am being polite or safe here). Its management is blaming it on some ex employees, thinking this excuse will clean everything like good money laundering does. That's their idea of accountability? Laughable.

Pepatah saduran: Orang yang duduk dalam rumah kaca usah baling batu. Baru-baru ini kita terbaca tentang kes songlap wang berjuta ringgit di perkarangan Malaysiakini sendiri. Lalu pentadbiran Malaysiakini menuduh beberapa bekas pekerja yang melenyapkan duit tersebut. Kiranya dengan alasan itu semuanya boleh dibersihkan seperti mencuci duit haram. Jelas pentadbiran Malaysiakini tidak faham maksud ketulusan dan tanggungjawab korporat. Kelakar.

Well, good try at playing the victim, Malaysiakini. Take us for fools, again, eh?

Cuba lagi, Malaysiakini. Ingat kita bangang, percaya bulat2 alasan yang korang sebenarnya mangsa?

 

Sounds just like Naimah Daim.

 Bunyi macam Naimah balu Daim.

Or is Malaysiakini also a puppet in the Naimah Plot?

Atau adakah Malaysiakini juga boneka dalam Plot Naimah?

Albert Tei employs a similar approach. He is a crucial figure in the purported corruption case involving politicians. He faced four charges related to bribing RM176,829 to the Prime Minister's Senior Political Secretary, Datuk Seri Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin, on 24 November 2023 and 29 January 2024. The strategy of 'functioning as a whistleblower' to avoid legal repercussions is clearly ineffective.

 

P.S. What baffles me, really, is this: While Malaysiakini maligns Azam and the MACC and takes daily potshots at Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, its chief Premesh Chandran is helming the Malaysian Media Council.

 

I don't see the Media Council doing anything to make Malaysiakini report more sensibly, more responsibly.

 

Take a leaf from Tokoh Wartawan Negara Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai, While many, including Prem's Malaysiakini, find fault with Anwar's administration, Wong Chun Wai dares to ask Malaysians to ignore the "noise" and appreciate, instead, the good tidings.

 

Ramai yang hobi mereka ialah membuat bising menghina kerajaan. Namun tidak ramai yang berani menyatakan kebenaran khususnya usaha kerajaan Malaysia seperti Pengerusi Bernama, Wong Chun Wai, yang juga merupakan Tokoh Wartawan Negara.

Look, Azam and MACC are not perfect but they have the courage to go after the corporate and political mafia who have been corrupting our nation. And - this needs to be said - I believe they can do this because PMX is not afraid. Because combating the corrupt has always been part of his reforms.

 

Now, if you can't appreciate that at the very least you can shut up and let them do their job for the better future of this country.

 

P.S. if you can't do your job, Prem, why don't you step down and let Farrah Naz take over the Malaysian Media Council?

Azam dan SPRM tidak sempurna tetapi mereka mempunyai keberanian untuk mengejar mafia korporat dan politik yang telah merosakkan negara kita. Saya percaya mereka boleh melakukan ini kerana PMX tidak takut. Kerana memerangi rasuah sentiasa menjadi sebahagian daripada pembaharuannya. Sekarang, jika anda tidak dapat menghargainya sekurang-kurangnya anda boleh diam dan biarkan mereka menjalankan tugas mereka untuk masa depan negara ini yang lebih baik.

P.S. jika anda tidak dapat menjalankan tugas anda, Prem, mengapa anda tidak meletak jawatan dan biarkan Farrah Naz mengambil alih Majlis Media Malaysia?
