Badawi’s Complaint

The headlines of the Sun newspaper screamed: “It’s treachery: PM Abdullah slams slander and lies spread in cyberspace.”

Badawi is quoted as saying:

“Conduct attributed to the truth is not appreciated. What is appreciated is the perception, and along with it the lies. Perception negates the truth. The truth is no longer talked about. The important thing is the perception.”

In my previous articles, I have exposed the lies and misrepresentation of Badawi and his cahoots.

Therefore, can the rakyat be blamed for calling him a liar and or perceived as a dishonest Prime Minister. The issue of the price hike for petrol is just one example. Prior to the General Elections, he said that there would be no more price hike for the remainder of the year. He then raised the price of petrol and assured us that there would not be anymore increase till end of 2008. A week later, Datuk Shahrir Samad, said that the price will hold until August only.


My Challenge to Badawi

Prove to me in an Open Public Debate that when you announced the 9th Malaysia Plan, the Economic Planning Unit had incorporated your super-mega projects more commonly known as the five development corridors in the said 9th Malaysia Plan.

Please show me where were the allocations in the 9th Malaysia Plan for all these development corridors.

Since I am not very clever with figures and do not have the benefit of experts, I may not have read properly and or understood the 9th Malaysia Plan.

So, I am more than willing to prove myself wrong by offering a RM5,000 reward to anyone who can show me with documentary evidence that your super-mega projects referred to above have been budgeted for in the 9th Malaysia Plan.

You have therefore an advantage in this public debate to determine whether you are dishonest in your public announcements and that you indulge in spin to gain popularity and public approval.

Notice to the Public

If you have any documentary evidence from the 9th Malaysia Plan to support the contention that the super-mega projects have been budgeted, and formally and expressly stated in the 9th Malaysian Plan, a reward of RM5,000 will be paid to the first person to deliver the evidence by courier service to my solicitors at:

Messrs Suhaimi Khor Zulkifli & Chang
Suite 10.01, 10th Floor
Plaza Permata
Jalan Kampar
50400 Kuala Lumpur

Rules for Eligibility:

1) You must be an adult of 21 years and above.

2) The documentary evidence must be found within the pages of the 9th Malaysia Plan as published by the Economic Planning Unit of the Prime Minister Department and not in any other documents not considered part of the 9th Malaysia Plan.

3) The names of the 5 development corridors must be directly referred to in your documentary evidence.

4) The evidence must be couriered to the above address, properly dated and signed by you. You must also provide your NRIC number and address.

5) The documentary evidence must be a certified true copy of the relevant page or ages of the 9th Malaysia Plan and duly certified and attested by a Commissioner for Oaths.

6) My decision as to who is the first person to have provided the evidence shall be final and conclusive and not subject to any challenge whatsoever in any legal proceedings or otherwise.

7) Payment will be made within 48 hours from the date of announcement in my website as to the person who succeeded in proving the above challenge.

8) This invitation is for the duration of 7 days from the date of posting in my website and shall expire at the end of the 7th business day.

In the Event No Evidence is Adduced


In the event that no one in Malaysia can establish that Badawi’s super-mega projects are part of the 9th Malaysia Plan, I would be most obliged if you could write to me to confirm that you share my contention that the rakyat is entitled to hold the view and to perceive Badawi as being dishonest and that he resorts to spin and propaganda to gain popularity and public approval.

I thank you in anticipation.

Do not be intimidated. Be resilient and fight for honesty and transparency!
