X-man projects fierce anti-corruption theatrics
"Billionaires were created overnight from the grand theft of public assets. Real entrepreneurs sweat to steer sustainable commercial enterprises. The undeserving on whom national monopolies were plonked attended meetings, carried files, played golf and added mistresses. As statutory bodies and “privatized” national assets failed spectacularly, they were bailed out. Banks were told not to press loan repayments. Taxpayers are routinely fleeced by their government for failed social engineering."
"A Malay civil service is committed to the Malay Agenda and processes the paperwork swiftly to facilitate. The mafia of political elites have their agents and enforcers wherever there is money to be hijacked in the system."

My Comments :
I have mentioned the Mary Celeste in a post dated May 12, 2016 (seven years ago). The Mary Celeste was a famous "ghost ship".
A 'ghost ship' was and still is a true phenomenon. It is a ship that is found adrift in the oceans with no human beings on board. It does not mean they are being crewed by ghosts. For certain logical reasons (mutiny, piracy, natural disaster) their crews disappeared and the ships sailed on.
The Mary Celeste
One of the most famous 'ghost ships' was the brig the Mary Celeste aka Marie Celeste (formerly the Amazon) a 270 ton brigantine that was found sailing by herself in the mid-Atlantic (800 miles from Gibraltar) without any crew or passengers onboard in 1872.
Although she was salvaged and sailed again there were 'reports' of seeing the original 'ghost ship' Mary Celeste sailing the oceans by herself as late as the early 20th century.
Oh well. The LCS have become ghost ships of sorts. We contracted RM9.0 billion for six of them but the ships never materialised. They are still ghosts. Now we are going to pay another RM11.2 billion but for only FIVE LCS ships. Well the Ringgit has crashed more. Steel prices have also gone up.
Who is the middle man? Who is the commission agent? There must be middlemen and commission agents.
