The Oracle of Syed Putera Returns....



These conversations I had with the Oracle are not necessarily verbatim. That means, he is not responsible over the statements that appear here. I get some information from the Oracle, do a little bit of research and ask around and offer readers a narrative.

By now many people know who the Oracle is. There is only one former minister who has an office at Jalan Syed Putera. In the old days, the road was known as Lornie Road I think.

I am retaining the moniker, The Oracle. He is the knowledgeable one. For he knows what is going on in the country. He knows who’s partying who. So Najib and gang have to be super ready to square off with him.

Before I sat down- I shot a question to the Oracle. Is the coast clear for 1MDB?

I don’t know- we only hear that Ananda has agreed to lend RM2 billion. All the Malays shouting at the side-lines have suddenly grown quiet- banks owned by the government and the company owned by the government are borrowing money from an individual- a Ceylonese. The Malay wiras should be ashamed.

They might as well exclaimed like Samy Vellu once did- hari ini kemaluan saya sangat besar. 1MDB might as well borrowed from a chettiar.

We don’t actually know whether the money has actually been transferred. It should be in the system. Otherwise, RHB and Maybank have to make provisions for NPL. Or they must do like any prudent banks do- foreclose. 

Seize some of the assets and properties belonging to 1MDB. They have plenty kan. Sell off one or two to get the money back. Show no mercy to this RM1 million paid up capital that has run a debt of RM42 billion.

It’s a shame- a government has to borrow money from an individual. Don’t people see the implications of all this? Ananda can buy off the entire leadership of Malaysia. We still want to keep this kind of leadership.

It’s been 2 years since I met the Oracle of Syed Putra. The reasons for the extended parting of ways are best left alone. I am glad I am given the opportunity to once again engage the Oracle.

The office and the furniture are still the same. The PA is new. As to the man himself- he looks darkened- he was suffering from some stomach ailments.

He has been in the news lately. He says this is nothing new- allegations about his wealth were made since 1998. He welcomes investigations by the authorities.

He says some people were shocked to know that he had a bank in Nigeria. One day, some Malaysians went over to Nigeria and offered to invest there. The Nigerian government said they welcome investments and in fact they already had an investment by a Malaysian in Nigeria. Asked what was the nature of the investment was,  to which banking came the answer- there were immediate suspicions that the bank must have been financed by ill-gotten gains. The bank was sold off some 12 years ago.

The Oracle says- anyone is free to investigate.

We talked on a host of topics. I penned own points which I wanted to raise. The issues of leadership, 1mdb, mas, BBCC, the state of the economy and the search of a leader to replace Najib.

At the end, the Oracle says, we must save this country. The interest of the country overrides everything else. Najib is dispensable.

I asked the oracle point blank- does Najib knows what’s going on.

Najib knows what goes on only in the end. From the beginning to their completion, he doesn’t know. He is not in the driver seat.

So why don’t you ask Tun M to come back?

Too old.

I said, Tunisia elected an old man to come back.

No la- once you retire better stay retire.

Then cultivate another person I said. I can think of only one person but I am not sure if the old man has buried the hatchet.

Too old too.

But a lot younger than Tun M and easily the most esteemed person.

The problem with these scions of royalty, they don’t want to come down from their pedestal. They think everything must be handed to them on a silver platter. They must make their presence felt. That’s how the Malaysian mind works- they want to see presence. Otherwise, it’s all in the mind, subject always to speculation and dreams.

But the painful truth is- he is the most qualified person to lead Malaysia now.
