An old man is selling watermelons by the side of the road.
His sign reads:
1 for $3
3 for $10
A young man stops and buys one watermelon.
“That’ll be $3,” says the old man.
The young man then buys a second watermelon. And then a third.
After paying another $3 each time, the young man picks up his watermelons and starts to walk away.
Then he turns back, grinning proudly.
“Hey old man,” he says, “you realize I just bought three watermelons for $9 instead of $10? Maybe business isn’t your thing.”
The old man smiles and shakes his head.
“Funny… every time somebody comes by, they buy three watermelons instead of one… and then try to teach me business.”
PMX’s propaganda is downright ridiculous (PART 1).
He actually claims Anwar is some kind of hero because Gross National Income (GNI) per capita rose 3% in 3 years - from RM53k to nearly RM55k.
That’s not an achievement, that’s an embarrassment. A 3% increase over 3 years is nothing to boast about - it’s a sign the economy is sick.
Now compare that with Najib’s era:
From RM24.8k in 2009 to RM43.3k in 2018 - a 74.6% jump.
In Najib’s last 3 years alone (2015 to 2018), GNI per capita rose from RM36.7k to RM43.3k - an 18% increase.
When it was an 18% rise in 3 years under Najib, you said the country was going bankrupt.
But when it’s just 3% in 3 years under PMX, suddenly it’s praised as a massive success?
Please, get a brain.

1. Anwar Ibrahim, the tenth Malaysian Prime Minister is an amazing liar.
2. He stated in Jakarta “But if they themselves admit – not as an accusation but as a declaration – that ‘I(Mahathir) or my son own RM1.2 billion, and another one RM4 billion’, then the money must be returned. “You must pay it back, unless you can clearly explain where the funds came from”. I never admitted and I have explained where my wealth came from.
3. Where does he get all these figures and statements? His Chief Commissioner of MACC had carried out full investigation and has stated that “Mokhzani declared assets are worth around RM1 billion while Mirzan declared RM246.2 million to the MACC.
4. And the Chief Commissioner Azam Baki, stated SPRM (MACC) was satisfied (berpuas hati) with the declaration made by Mokhzani and Mirzan as given above.|
5. Was Azam Baki satisfied without knowing the sources of this wealth. The MACC questioned my sons many times, each time for many hours. Did MACC ask about the sources of the wealth as declared.
6. Azam Baki did not talk about cash. He was talking about the value of the wealth of the two. These were made up of property, shares, liabilities etc. which were acquired during 20 years plus of doing business. Such properties appreciate in value over time.
7. The MACC did not state that the sources are “unclear or illegitimate”. The MACC and Azam Baki cannot state they are satisfied “if the declarations are unclear or illegitimate”.
8. Why should I or my sons admit to something that is not true. I or my sons never declared we own the RM1.2 billion or 4 billion. The MACC said we declared that Mokhzani wealth is worth RM1 billion and Mirzan wealth is worth RM 246.2 million. And the MACC is satisfied with the declaration.
9. Is Anwar demanding that we sell all our property and give the proceed to the Government. On what ground is he making this demand.
10. As for the demonstration on 26 July, it was not about supporting me or my sons. The people are asking Anwar to step down. They don’t want him because his being PM has caused a lot of misery among the people. If he doesn’t believe the people don’t want him as Prime Minister, he should dissolve Parliament and hold a General Election. It is not the members of Parliament who demonstrated. So a motion in Parliament is irrelevant.
