My answer to his question is The RICHEST MAN in Malaysia Taib MAHMUD. When old man Dr M was the PM, the then MB of Selangor Mat "MIKE TYSON" Taib wanted to challenge Orang Tua for the UMNO presidency. To overcome Mike Tyson,Old Man appointed a private investigator(PI) from London to investigate Tyson.
After 2 months,the Mat Salleh PI CAME BACK WITH A VERY THICK FILE which shocked old man.The reason the file is thick as it contain the information of 2 TAIBS because as far as the Mat Salleh is concerned Mat Taib and Taib Mahmud is the SAME person.Immediately,old man summoned Mike TYson to Putrajaya and from that moment Mike Tyson became a GOOD BOY to old man.
As far as Taib Mahmud is concerned,he is only interested to stay forever as chief minister of Sarawak. Hence,he is not a threat to old man but orang tua know that he has a lot of cash.So,old man summoned him to putrajaya and ask him for a donation.Immediately,he made a personal donation of RM 400 million to UMNO with the condition that Umno do not go into Sarawak.In this coming election,I think he will come up with another RM 400 million to fight for the 31 parliament seats in Sarawak.It will not be a problem since his total assets is RM 4.6 BILLION and Najib need not finance BN Sarawak as along as he leave Taib alone.
My last posting is an analysis of the amount contributed by the 40 companies to the UMNO election warchest and the total amount came to a staggering RM 790 MILLION.
The above amount does not include the warchest of other BN component parties such as Parti Pesaka Bumiputra (PBB),MCA,MIC and other parties. We assume that the total amount of all the other parties is RM 100 million.
Therefore,the total of all BN funding is as folows:- RM (Million)
1) UMNO----------------------------------------------790
2) PBB Sarawak---------------------------------------400
3) Other BN parties----------------------------------100
--------------Total-----------------------------------1,290
With a total election fund of close to RM 1.3 Billion, it will be hard to beat BN in the election.
In 1984,I was a young man working for Hanafiah,Raslan & Mohamad (HRM) who was the auditors for Bank Bumiputra (BBMB). During the course of the audit,I found out that before any general election, BBMB will donate RM 5 Million to the Umno election fund.
Before he died in the helicopter crash in Trengganu,the late Yahya Ahmad of DRB donated RM50 million to the warchest of Umno.
A lot of people is expecting an opposition win in the coming election but in my opinion it is not easy to beat Umno in the coming election due to the huge warchest that it has because of the contribution from the private sector and the GLCs.
I have chosen only 40 companies who I think will contribute towards the Umno election fund and most of this companies are listed in Bursa Malaysia.The followings are the companies and the amount that I think they will contribute:- RM (Millions)
1) Genting--------------------------------------------50
2) Berjaya Toto--------------------------------------25
3) Magnum-------------------------------------------25
4) YTL-------------------------------------------------20
5) Maxis Group--------------------------------------20

============================================================
The total of RM790 Millions is a conservative number and it does not include other donations especially from small businesses.
Playing politics is like playing POKER in that the person with the most cash will always win.With RM 790 MILLION,it will be difficult for Umno to lose in the election.
Personally,in order to secure the future of our younger generation,I hope Parti CURI Umno will lose in the next election but with the warchest that it has,it will be difficult for Pakatan Rakyat to win.
Even if Umno loses,it will not let go of the power it has easily, as I belief,SOME PEOPLE WILL CREATE RIOT IN ORDER TO RETAIN ITS POWER THROUGH THE EMERGENCY ACT.
So,last tuesday 22nd November,after years of waiting,Elton John finally performed in Malaysia by playing to a full house at Genting Highlands.
As usual,I bought the cheapest ticket which is RM 380 and this money of mine is well spent when you see the Rocketman sing Sad Song,Candle in the Wind,Daniel,Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,Sacrifices,That why they call it the blues and lastly,Crocodile Rock.
After Crocodile Rock ,he went backstage but was coaxed by the applause of the fans and he came onstage again to sing Circle of life and Lion KING.
I have a very good and enjoyable evening and I hope the rocketman will come back to perform again in Malaysia.
The favourite sports and pastime for malaysians today is not football,hockey,sepak takraw or badminton BUT MAKAN dan MINUM.
That is why we have a lot of malaysian especially the young who are having at least one of this so called EMPAT SEKAWAN DISEASES :-
1) High blood pressure
2) Diabetes
3) High Cholesterol
4) Heart Problems
Nowadays,it is not unusual to hear of teenagers who have diabetes and high blood pressure because young people like them like to patronise fast food outlets where the food that is served is unhealthy and fattening which leads to all this sickness.
In order to avoid all this problems,we must discourage our younger generation fron being fascinated by this fast food circus and we must encourage them to exercise frequently in order to ensure that they stay healthy.
If this trend continues, Malaysia will have a lot of problems in the future in that beside having a sick workforce,we have to incur substantial amount of money to treat them. In the end,we will have a lot of economic problems.
We must also discourage our young people FROM SITTING TOO LONG IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER as this will make them lazy to exercise.Together with the food they take while playing the computer,no wonder most of our young people are getting fatter and fatter.
To all the readers of this blog,please encourage your children to exercise.
