Yup that is the latest news that is burning up the airwaves from The Thingy since yesterday. Orang Melayu tak nak buat apa lagi? Orang Dumbno tak nak buat apa-apa lagi? Polis and AG tak nak ambil apa-apa tindakan lagi?
Well if that is the case I hereby officially pronounce you people brain dead. Just when people thought you have reached the bottom of the pit, you can still dig further down and fall in some more.
Before that here is some news from Penang:
Salam Syed,
I was at the Penang GH the other day for my second appointment with the eye specialist. I was recommended to undergo a minor surgical procedure for my left cover. Unfortunately, the doc said, their sole eye surgeon had already left for a private hospital. I asked if Penang GH was getting a replacement in due time and the reply was in the negative. Why? Because Penang GH has no budget for an eye surgeon.
The doctor asked if private health care would be a problem for me. If I could, I quietly thought, what was I doing waiting in line at a government hospital? Upon reflection however, I realised that the question wasn't asked out of ignorance, but out of resignation. In other words, I was being told, indirectly, that I had no other option. It's either private health care or no care, for now.
Then I read the news in your blog about the hospitals which are unable to run simple things like blood tests and major life-saving procedures like brain surgery simply because they had no funds.
It got me worried. This sure seems to be a bad time for me, and the millions of other Malaysians (and foreigners) who are dependent on affordable health care. I hope the situation is a temporary one. I dread to think of the money I would have to spend on private health care.

Salams from Penang
Salamun Alaikum bro. Thank you for the info. Its the ordinary citizens like you and me who are made to suffer and bear the cost of all the stealing.
The taxpayers' money that was stolen to buy those handbags alone (the Birkins as well as those in Sabah) is more than enough budget to pay for more than one eye surgeon to be based in Penang General Hospital for many years. That one type of Birkin bag costs RM800,000 or more. She has 45 of them or so !! That is up to RM36 million !! You could have had your eye surgery.
Now here is that report from The Thingy. You have to find some way of accessing the story.
Here are some screen takes :
